  1. Hey all! Now that I'm back on my main computer, I've been working on some more coaster designs. Here's some of my personal favourites that I've recently finished: Coaster Coaster is a compact, airtime-machine woodie with a layout almost identical to the real Coaster, at my home park PNE Playland in Vancouver. (No CS here!) This thing can really kick your ass if you're not careful. Just watch the POV up on YouTube! Shockwave Named and painted in homage to the first, more compact than the last, and inspired by all three - Shockwave is my take on the Arrow seven-inversion sisters. Stormracers The Stormracers: Thunderclap (blue) and Lightning Bolt (yellow). Two racing Arrow loopers, each with three inversions. Yes, the corkscrews are intertwined, and yes, it looks awesome in action. Pegasus Inspired by Vortex at the beginning and Ninja at the end, but given some serious steroids. This is one hell of an Arrow swinger. Pegasus is a true spaghetti-bowl of twisty, fast Arrow track. Also, Boomerang. Naga Naga is a pretty standard B&M floorless. Well, except for the barrel roll before the lift hill. Like Hydra! Triple Star Triple Star is a big, fast modified-out-and-back style woodie. This was built before I realized it was a better idea to spread out flat rides. Triple Star's turnaround is... simple. I originally wanted to go for something more like The Voyage, but I couldn't get the curves right. Rolling Runaway Rolling Runaway is a small, relatively tame Arrow mine train with a dark tunnel through the mountain behind it. The scenery experimentation is strong with this one. That's all for now! Thanks for having a look - suggestions and criticism are welcome and appreciated! ❤
  2. Thank you very much! I figured I'd make a more classic sort of park before I get too invested with custom scenery - I tend to go a bit overboard with that stuff, heh. Would you believe it's been almost three years since I've touched a RollerCoaster Tycoon title on a regular basis? You make a really good point, actually. You've inspired me to start filling up what's left space-wise in the park, in behind Derby Downs: Derby Downs station and new Kids' Zone Seen here is the brand new Kids' Eats building, the second (and currently largest) food court in the park. The other food court, Tem Zone (the blue and white building underneath Shooting Star's support structure) is currently undergoing renovations and enlargement for more food options. Kettle Creek Mine Ride The newest coaster at the park, Kettle Crek Mine Ride. This E&F Miller kiddie coaster is a remake of the real-life ride of the same name from my local PNE Playland. I'm trying my hand at more thorough scenicking for this area of the park - any criticism is welcome! Log Flume The other large ride in the new Kids' Zone area is the aptly-named Log Flume, which brings our roster of Arrow-built rides up to six. Another remake, also from PNE Playland. New park entranceway With the new developments out of the way, I'd also like to show off what I've done with the park's entranceway. Since the crowds have mostly pushed to the back side of the park to check out the new rides, I've been able to get to work on scenery in other areas. In addition, the eyesore, in-the-way, above-ground ALWEG Monorail has been completely demolished, and similar technology used to build our new below-ground four-stop subway. One of the station entrances is visible next to Super Boomerang's cobra roll. Anyway, that's all for now - thanks for the feedback, friends! I'm gonna keep working away at this park, stay tuned for more updates! UPDATE - - 2016/04/26 12:50AM Since the last update, Rainbow Lake has had the rest of its free space filled up, and a lot of little things have changed! Here's the skinny: Streamliner KidZone is finally finished, and one of our newest coasters is a small kids' woodie named Streamliner. Flashback's new station Just down the shoreline, the giant Arrow seven-looper Flashback has a brand-new Expo '86 themed station. Tornado Tucked in behind Flashback is this brand-new compact B&M standup, named Tornado. Vertigo Hill's new look Vertigo Hill has been re-themed and renamed to Volcano. Pine Mountain Bobsleigh Coaster The empty hills behind Skyracer's giant lift hill have been filled in by this Flying Turns, named Pine Mountain Bobsleigh Coaster. Ridge Runner's new look Ridge Runner's ground and forest have been revamped, along with a repainted and fixed up station. Shooting Star's new Timberliner trains And finally, the classic Shooting Star has some sexy new Timberliner trains from Gravitykraft. Now, with the new developments out of the way again, here's some park overview pictures! Grand Midway Excitement Empire KidZone Mt. Vortex Flashback Alley And finally... Rainbow Lake Amusement Park That's all for now, everyone! If anyone would like to download the park or any of the rides to have a closer look for yourself, I'd be happy to provide!
  3. Hey all! I've recently discovered OpenRCT2, and I realized how much I miss my elementary school days of coaster building. So, after two weeks of experimenting, two park versions and being stuck with a laptop that's maxed out by RCT2's graphics engine, I became very proud of my designs and wanted to show them off. So I'll skip the fluff and get to the good part - without further adieu, here's the coaster roster of Rainbow Lake Amusement Park! Shooting Star overview Starting us off is Shooting Star, a classic out-and-back style wooden coaster. It was the first coaster ever built at the park, and over its lifetime it's undergone several slight modifications to improve the ride experience and make room for other attractions. Shooting Star back end Shooting Star runs with three six-car trains (blue, green, and orange) and has a double station so two trains can unload and load simultaneously. This leads to a great throughput - over 2,000 customers per hour. Ride EIN ratings are 6/7/4. Rainbow Lake entrance area A view of the park's main entranceway (which is a bit of a mess, I'll admit). Shooting Star's station is visible at top left, with the orange train taking the gentle curves to the lift hill. The big castle-like structure is Great Bear's station, which we'll cover next. In front of that is one of the ALWEG Monorail's stations, which takes guests on a one-way circle around the park, with stops at regular intervals. The orange and dark blue Corkscrew shuttle at the bottom is Super Boomerang, a custom-built Vekoma with bigger spikes, higher speeds and slightly larger inversions. Running with a bright-yellow Arrow train, reused from another coaster at the park, it grabs 5/7/3 on the rating scales. Great Bear overview Here's Great Bear, the first of five Arrow Dynamics rides in the park. It's a custom looping coaster with a double-circle layout and four inversions, running on a block section system with three seven-car trains. A truly classic Arrow experience, grabbing 6/7/3 on the rating scales (and admittedly a bit of roughness here and there, but hey, it's an Arrow looper!) Derby Downs overview And they're off! Another classic coaster, here's Derby Downs - a horse racing themed twin-track racing woodie inspired by Grand National at Blackpool. Ratings are 7/8/4 for both tracks. Derby Downs station and second half Derby Downs' station and track after the MCBR, plunging through two dark tunnels so you'll never figure out who's winning! Vortex and Dynamite Blaster This mess of rock and track is two more of the park's five Arrow rides. The bright orange suspended coaster is Vortex, a remake of the real-life coaster of the same name from Canada's Wonderland. With stats that are surprisingly true to life, it's a hell of a ride down the mountain and over the lake's southeastern islands. It hits ratings of 6/6/6 across the board. The dark brown and black mine train is Dynamite Blaster, which is named and painted in homage to the miner of the same name from Dynamite Dunes in RCT1. It grabs 7/7/4 on the scales. Dynamite Blaster back side The back side of Dynamite Blaster's layout. I tried my hand at some scenicking back here - I really don't know how well I did. I'm more of a coaster designer. Vortex second half Here's the second half of Vortex's layout, charging between and around the lake islands. This part's been through a lot of refinements since the ride was built - it's difficult keeping three trains on the move with no MCBR to even out the timings. Flashback Moving up to the big boy coasters now. This is Flashback, another one of the park's Arrow rides, and hands down the most intense. Painted in homage to the Scream Machine from Expo '86 in Vancouver (a ride which still exists, as Ninja at Six Flags St. Louis), this seven-inversion Viper-inspired monster really doesn't mess around. 7/8/4 rating. Ridge Runner top end The last of our Arrow rides, Ridge Runner, has a bit of a story to tell. Before Flashback was built, this sea-green terrain coaster was our take on Kennywood's Steel Phantom. After the MCBR, the ride originally took a dive through a tunnel and straight down to the lake, where the train would enter a huge sidewinder, a vertical loop and B&M-style interlocking corkscrews before taking a helix into the brake run and station. Modifications to the layout to accommodate the ALWEG Monorail tunnel, however, increased the train's speed through the second half of the track, making the inversions an excessively painful experience, even for an Arrow looper. Ridge Runner bottom end The solution to the problem was contacting Morgan, who agreed to modify the ride into a non-inverting mini-hyper-terrain coaster. After the tunnel and lake dive, they removed the inversions, adding a helix over the water and a gentle curved hill wrapping around the chain lift before re-entering the original helix before the brake run. The coaster now operates with Morgan hypercoaster trains, with one of the original six-car Arrows going to Super Boomerang near the park's entrance. The new Ridge Runner rakes in a 7/6/3 rating on the scales. Vertigo Hill overview This tiny B&M Dive Machine is Vertigo Hill, the shortest coaster in the park. Inspired by Oblivion, this ride is usually neglected by guests, but the mist-filled tunnel and very slow vertical loop are surprisingly fun moments. 6/6/3 ratings. Thunderbolt front side One of our most exciting coasters, this giant B&M floorless looping coaster, Thunderbolt, is surprisingly compact for all its elements. A giant loop, an Immelmann, a roll over and a heartline roll are all crammed into a 15x40 layout. Thunderbolt back side The back side of Thunderbolt. This Beemer takes in ratings of 8/7/4, owing to the fast first drop and close calls with supports. Skyracer lift hill and first drop And now, our park's pride and joy - Skyracer. An Intamin hyper that takes guests on a fast, exciting journey down the west edge of the park and back, culminating in tons of airtime and ratings of 9/6/4. Skyracer turnaround Skyracer's turnaround is a fast helix, leading into more airtime hills and the MCBR. Skyracer station The end of Skyracer's layout, with tons of twisty Intamin goodness (cue Mr. Alvey yelling "twisty!"). This part of the ride has been through many modifications, first to accommodate the Fifty-Five High Dive drop ride at the top right, and also to keep the block brakes from freaking out while running four trains at a time. Jeez, this post ended up being pretty long... Oh well, that's all I have right now! I hope y'all enjoy - I'll put up download links if anyone wants any of these tracks. Thanks for having a look!
  4. Hey all! The name's Aero, and I'm in love with Arrow! I've been lurking on TPR for a long time as a guest, but I've never really been able to work up the nerve to make an account and start posting. However, I've recently gotten back into RCT2, and the Autism Roller Coaster Special Interest™ has come roaring back out like the PNE woodie and I am so excited to gush about Arrow. (Did I mention Arrow? I love Arrow.)
