^ Agreed! Though my inclination would be towards Mack, in the spirit of keeping the coaster roster diverse. The current flagship ride is a B&M, so the Mack design (whatever it may be) would ideally provide something fresh and new that guests haven't experienced yet!

That's breathtaking, masked! The sense of scale seems right on, and I'm absolutely in love with the exterior of the stadium, you detailed the building so well and the landscaping/plant beds are impeccable too.

I've been following the devlog through my tumblr account and it's so great to have all the latest updates delivered right to my dashboard! It's honestly got me pining to boot up RCT1 again while development continues, but even the promise of that much more versatile coaster builder might be enough to tide me over until release...

It looks fantastic, Grav! The marshy character of the RCT3 original has translated nicely so far to NL2, and I like the tweaks to the layout. The video you linked to doesn't seem to be working though!

If I had one criticism/suggestion, it would be that the general scale of the whole ride seems quite large. The cobra roll gives the impression of being absolutely sprawling (and proportionally-speaking quite wide/squat), which makes me wonder if the ride as a whole might benefit from a slight rescale. That said, that could also have been a deliberate choice you made when you reimagined the ride for NL2, where you aren't limited by the prefab track chunks of the RCT series.

I'm looking forward to seeing it in motion, whether it's that work-in-progress clip or a final video!

That looks great, MGP! It's so cool watching this set grow and grow post-Summer Showdown, you're doing good work!

Looks fantastic and the scale is really great, it definitely gives the feeling of the forced perspective a real park would use which is no easy feat. I'm not 100% sure on the rock texture but I have no idea if you've finished it yet or not, I just figured it might be worth pointing out. The whole ride looks pretty amazing right now, though, I can't wait to see the station come together!

That's some beautiful modeling you've done on the mountain! I love the layout of the coaster, the Maverick influence is clear and I can't wait to see how the scenery develops.

An amazing song, the production is incredible, and he self-directs all of his videos as well.

Renegade at Valleyfair, seven months ago

Hey! It's been... a while.

The last time I was here formally was a brief stint in the fall of 2012, and that in itself was a comeback more than three years in the making, as I was originally active on the old Atari forums under the name AtomiCart.

In the last four months, after my passions had shifted to things like pop stars and blogging for about five years proper, my excitement and obsession with roller coasters was accidentally reignited, and renewed access to RCT3 in as many years helped keep it alive (unlike the 2012 occurrence, short-lived as it was). I've been playing the stock game with both expansions since November, working my way through every scenario in the original and Wild! expansions, with only the last two Soaked! parks remaining. But I dreamed of the CS and CTRs that had flourished here in my absence, and I felt I needed to pay a return visit.

I'm overjoyed at the prospect of Theme Park Studio looming much closer than the horizon now as well, and I'm eager to see how the community might (or might not) be receptive to this new tool, especially in the ways it provides things that, no matter how serious the modification, RCT3 never could.

Anyway that's all! I'm a college student now so I may not have the idle time to spend here as I once did, but I'm not going to let that stop me from dropping by frequently.

But good to see you all, old and new faces alike!
