Its shit.

>>2769863
It's supposed to be some sort of fantasy shit. The umrellas hold it up.

Daily reminder to kill yourself if you bought or even thought of buying rctw

>>2769870
I considered pirating it, what should I do in this case?

For the record I never pirate games.

Repostan Halloween related spookiness now before the thread becomes filled with RCTW and how horrible it is.

>>2769876
Man I whish RCTW was just some sort of Halloween prank.

I wish we made this thread before appchan took a shit and went all halloween theme and made shit orange and all images opaque

Mr Boner can suck mine

Are there any recordings of the alienware stream? I haven't finished hating RCTW yet and I need more fuel.

>>2769872
Play two hours of RCT4 as punishment.

>>2769823
How does one make something like this? What mods?

>>2769935
>RCT2
>Mods
It's just custom scenery, trainers and autism.

>>2769909
Oh god no.

>Hey guys, it's totally a beta, that means it's okay that it sucks. I mean, they will totally fix everything in less than 2 months.

I dun like it

That's the real blunder.

Hello /vr/ct
How do you guys play in high res?
Do I have to download that openrct thing?

>>2770057
It's the easiest way to do it. It has every resolution up to 1920/1080 (as far as I'm aware). Might as well download it, it's stable and adds more stuff to the game.

>>2770065
I did. I am surprised it lags a bit, at least in 1920x1080. I'm gonna try 1600x900

>>2770073
Enable hardware graghics and uncap framerate.

>>2769975
Why are people so quick to defend game development corporations who couldn't give less of a shit about them?

>>2770254
They drank the kool aid

Hell, they use the "It's beta, you're a fucking whiner" excuse so much, they look absolutely fucking retarded. Keep in mind that the developers have only less than 2 months to fix all the major bugs in the game before launch. I mean, there have been much better looking and functioning betas released even more than 2 months before launch, the RCTW beta isn't even beta.

>>2770254
because they spent money on it

Is it me or is RCT2 way harder than RCT1?

I can't get more than 500 guests somehow in Crazy Castle map.
>this loan
>this vomit

>>2770275
>Crazy Castle
Well there's your problem.

>>2770275
delete unnecessary footpaths
sell the castle for quick cash if you need it

>>2770276
Why would it be harder than any other map? I did remap the paths and block access to the whole wall area.

>>2769881
It's Mr. Bones' revenge, truly the ride is never over.

>P-pls stop talking shit about this game

I know we should probably stop talking about RCTW, but holy shit... are fanboys really this deluded that they will pretty much say "Don't you dare criticize this masterpiece!" about what is a barely functioning public beta?

>>2770797
As you wish.

Honestly, the game isn't nearly as bad as people are making it out to be.

The coaster designer has a steep learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, it's not bad.

So has there been any word on on that Rollercoaster 2 3DS thing?

Can we now go back to RCT3 and say "It wasn't so bad"?

>>2771141
No.

>>2771143
Not even just to import rides from RCT2 to record a on-ride view?

>>2771146
Well it sure beats recreating them in RCTW, at least for now, but "not so bad" is no way to describe the clusterfuck that was RCT3.

Tldr; no.

>>2769876
>All that blood in the right corner

>>2770921
It's made in fucking Unity, shit should be optimised

>>2771282

>>2771282
If you read his later post, he does say "Unity is the best engine"... and the only shit to prove his point is top 5 lists of all things

From my use of the coaster builder it's only a few key features away from being damn near perfect.

>ability to select nodes without the track snapping to the mouse
>ability to select multiple nodes
>ability to add track pieces identical to the last placed
>ability to manually input angles

new collab when

>>2771515
When you start one.

>wait why are you guys shitting on world
>check the old thread
>the coaster creator is apparently all fucked up
>in a game called ROLLER COASTER tycoon
JUST

>>2771718
In their defense, the whole point of the beta was purely to test the coaster designer. Whether they fix it by addressing our concerns by the next test, we can only hope. At least we have some input, I guess.

>>2771735
Sadly half of the forum is full of ass hurt people trying to cancel out anything negative about the game, saying "It's beta", while ignoring the fact that many of the bugs and steep learning curve are sort of big issues, especially considering the developers have until December 29th to fix upon the majority of them. I really am not sure how anyone could possibly fix this shit in less than 2 months. Basically, I agree with this comment.

I would have probably considered not refunding my game if there was more developer to consumer communication involved, but sadly the whole divide between people angry about the beta and the people angry about people angry about the beta shows that there's not too much hope in that, especially when you have hardcore shills

Server guy here. Sorry about being dead for a while. Forgot the server was still up. Pic is the status on the park so far. Going to shut it down in a bit. I'm going to wait on making a openrct2 server until certain open issues are reported as fixed on their github repo.

>>2772393
Wait, what happened to those wacky rides I built?

>>2772363

>>2772408
I have no idea. They just disappeared. I guess someone deleted them.

This is looking to be another case of SimCity/Cities Skylines so Frontier better not fuck up but I'm not liking their hipster-tier peeps in Planet Coaster from what we've seen. It's all over if both coaster games end up shit.

>>2772745
>It's all over if both coaster games end up shit.
never fear, OpenRCT and Parkitect are here to deliver us

What's the appeal of this game? You guys seem really into it.

>>2772748
If the management sim and designing coasters isnt obvious to you, you may be retarded. Less obvious is the creativity of blasting scenery everywhere with varying levels of autism.

>>2772749
So you're all autistic?

>>2772745
Theme Park Designer and NoLimits still offer great tools if all you wanna do is make coasters.
Parkitect and OpenRCT are there for scenarios.

>>2772759
To a degree. Just building basic rides to complete scenarios is not that autistic.

God bless autosave, the current build crashed 3 times during this

>>2773236
I like the woodie but something looks off. Can't really say what that is, though.

rctw torrent where?

>there will someday be a labor-of-love spiritual successor to RCT2 with comfy aesthetics, intuitive and robust, yet easy-to-use coaster designer, and a bustling mod community

Just waiting for Coasters: Skylines I guess.

how do i play rct3 without the disc?

>>2773463
Your favourite torrent site. I wouldn't bother, though.
>>2773504
Parkitect?

Do you guys have any info that might not be so well known about RCT 2? I only just found out about holding CTRL and mousing over an item sets your current item's height to be equal to the first one. I built every building without that trick for 13 years. It's a life saver.

>>2773587
Guest pathfinding Is a good thing to read about.

>>2773545
He said comfy graphics, anon.

>>2773509
Depends on ho you wanna install it.
You can always pirate it, and I'm sure it's somewhere on sale online.
If you do have the disk, install the game normally, and then get yourself a program a la powerISO or magicISO to copy the CD as a .iso file, which you can then mount on a virtual drive program like powerISO or magicISO (windows 8 and 10 have their own, just right-click and select mount)

>>2773963
i own the disc but i couldn't find it so i pirated the gog version but it crashes every time it opens
oh well

>>2773504
OpenRCT?
Everything else coming out currently has uncomfy graphics for some reason.

i am really enjoying this ride switch thing

>>2774010
wtf m8 kill yourself desu senpai

>>2773963
Simplistic stuff can be very comfy, anon.

>>2774064
I can't see the comfy senpai, just looks like a rather under-detailed game.
Also why are the slopes at such a high angle I will never understand.

>>2774064
Don't like how lazy it looks. In 10 years, RCT 2 will still look good. This won't. The artstyle and whatnot is just too low effort.

>>2774051
no

>>2774078
This, honestly. I like the effort the put in but I just can't bring myself to be hyped for the game. At all.

>>2774064
These are graphics you'd expect to be placeholders, not finished models. The trees look like they took 5 minutes to make, and while the haunted house has a lot more effort put in (as it should, since it's a ploppable ride), it doesn't have the amount of effort you'd expect from an entire ride.

Flat surfaces are okay, but this amount of them just speaks of either laziness or a lack of manpower, both of which are problems common with indie devs to the point where it's indistinguishable which one it is.

It looks half-finished.

>>2774123
Could you give a few examples of things in a similar style that don't suffer from similar underdetailing? I get what you're saying, but I'm betting a number of people won't.

>>2773969
>If you do have the disk, install the game normally, and then get yourself a program a la powerISO or magicISO to copy the CD as a .iso file, which you can then mount on a virtual drive program like powerISO or magicISO (windows 8 and 10 have their own, just right-click and select mount)

>>2774203
i found this already, i'm just saying it's not going to help right now

>>2774207
you gotta sort of have the disk connected to your pc, anon.
And then, you know. Boot program, select the drive RCT is in, convert to ISO
your ma could do it its so easy

>>2774209
are you replying to the right person?

>>2774209
Anon, he said he doesn't know where the disk is. MagicISO won't do shit.

does anyone else feel like landscaping costs too much in both games? also where's the "uniform" feature on the landscaping tool in RCT2? you'd click the minus button once to get it in RCT1.

>>2774245
what do you mean uniform? clicking the minus in rct2 makes it into a hill tool

and yeah, it's really expensive. I don't bother with it in scenarios with money.

>>2774141
Katamari Damacy, TF2, and if we want to include an indie game, Lovely Planet, all spring to mind. Wind Waker somewhat in that it's got a more cartoon-y artstyle, but is anything but lazy.

In all of these they have more simplistic and stylized artstyles, they all feature plenty of flat faces, but they don't skimp on detail where it matters. None of them feel like they're using placeholder assets and they're very presentable as complete games.

>>2774259
>clicking the minus in rct2 makes it into a hill tool
that doesn't work in any of the scenarios i've played. what am i doing wrong?

>>2774419
That's only in OpenRCT2.

>>2774420
they really took that feature out of RCT2? what the fuck

>>2774430
Oh, I forgot it was open RCT 2 only. It works in RCT 2 in the map editor, that's it.

>>2774123
the game is in pre-alpha, of course it looks half finished. It is now open to modding too, so anything cosmetic will be solved by mods long before the devs can release the full game anyway

>>2774453

>>2774078
this
>>2774123
i thought they would change the graphics style too. if it comes out looking like this i wont bother playing it i backed it too its basically a rollercoaster tycoon clone with animal crossing art style. RCT1-2 have a timeless art style.

>>2774457
you realise what a pre-alpha is right? they are still adding core features to the game. This isn't like RCTW where the release date is 2 months away and the game can't even be called a coaster design sim

Go advertise this garbage someplace else, shill.
This is RCT general.

move your coat

can somebody upload the latest parkitect build to mega please

>>2774453
>mods will fix it
this relies on the assumption there is some other, more dedicated community of creators out there that will painstakingly thumb over every bad asset. but this is already a dedicated community to a very niche interest. it's easy to wave off bad design by saying "someone else will fix it," but that someone else is going to have to be us to begin with.

>>2774659
I only have the Alpha3 build.

>>2775029
Too much of it is covered. Try using more half-pipes in construction.

>>2775030
Or underground

Didn't someone make an education image about various penalties in RCT2 a couple months ago?

>>2775038
That's an excellent station, and good stats, too.

>>2775029
It does look sexy though.

>>2775038
thats pretty dandy anon

how long should i make my coasters i usually dont make them bigger then my dick jk lol i mean usually they end up being pretty short like 10 seconds or something should i be aiming for like 30 or something

>>2775520
aim for one to four minutes including lift hill

quick, someone make a scenario for me

>>2775668
Monday night, a gloomy café in the suburbs of New York City. Her eyes had been on you for the entire evening, and you knew it. Yet, you didn't want anything to do with the likes of her. That body, that hair, that make-up, that dress... You knew that kind of women too well. And just as luck would have it, she was coming your way.

Is that a good one? I'd say you can go plenty of places form here. I can rewrite it in first or third person perspective if you want.

>>2775668
I was playing with the idea of a scenario with a small starting area, expensive purchasable land, and massive starting loan debt to simulate payments to the land owner until the park is proven successful. Havent gotten around to finishing it.

>>2775678

I pirated the RCTW beta.

I wish I didn't.

>>2777151
did you get past the loading screen?

>>2777070
I added some Sap Green, Phthalo Blue and a bit of Cad Yellow mixed with Alizarin Crimson. Painted some happy trees, a nice little cabin and some almighty mountains.

>>2777162
Yes. Even though I ran it on a piece of shit laptop and didn't get above 10FPS. It'd still be a piece of shit if I played it on a NASA supercomputer at 1000FPS, though.

>>2777168
how did you get it to work? mine crashes a few minutes after i hit sandbox

>>2777170
Luck. It's most certainly not worth playing, though.

>>2777176
damn, that sucks

>>2776462
Even adding boards onto it would've put in a ton of detail and it'd be piss easy to do. All it really needed though is shingles and it'd be good, but it just looks lazy atm.

>>2777626
>shitty tea cup design instead of god tier 3-arm 9-seat design for twist

>>2777626
The 4th last one makes me wonder if performance venues will be included. It'd be nice, considering a lot of parks Ive been to have regular shows.

>>2777637
Fairly certain that's a gravitron. And considering how barebones the game will be at launch, I doubt we'd see anything like that unless they rely on modders creating it

>>2777626
Why does the pirate ship need to take up so much space?

Also I would have preferred the Haunted House on a flat terrain. Not really a big deal though.

>>2777837
It needs so much space because theyre taking away the theming control.

>>2777837
>Why does the pirate ship need to take up so much space?
So you don't have to build your own lake under it.

>>2777392
thank you kind anon

Hey guys, actually attempted to build something this week, please give me advice and point out what looks bad/good.

>>2778756
I like it but I'm personally not a fan of curved corners. Perhaps change them to diagonal? The yellow glass parts look out of place, I think. Would also place a few fenced areas around it close to the path area. Also not sure about the roofs on the left side.

It looks good anon. I like it.

>>2778762
Thanks anon, what color would you think would work the best for the glass? Not really the best when it comes to mixing and matching colors.

>>2778764
Here is a color chart from Google. It's the "opposites attract" thing - blue & orange, pink & yellow, etc. However, some colors in RCT look like ass and are impossible to make look good (looking at you, Ice Blue).

Really proud of this bobsled i built
On a side note, i really need some help building park entrances.

>>2779201
what map is that?

also, there's not that much you can do with snow related scenery unless you're stacking ice cubes or using custom scenery

>>2779207
its just a custom map that i generated

and yes, there is a lack of good snowy scenery and it makes me sad

Post food courts

>>2754350
I don't have screens for proof but I actually can keep my temps low enough on this shitheap of a toaster to play some RCT now and again. My temps blow out the windows at worst.

>>2781909
There are files for:
-A spinning coaster
-"C-clamp" track, which I can only presume is Arrow/Vekoma
-Files referencing the PlayStation and Ouya, probably generic Unity stuff
-There are 6 souvenir stalls and 7 food stalls, with each having 4 variations corresponding to each theme (Generic, Adventure, Sci-Fi, Western). There are more food items and souvenirs than that, but there's too many to list.
-Tutorials for opening bathrooms, checking finances, building coasters etc.
-Guests can take selfies, so you can't accurately recreate Disneyland
-Staff can "regenerate" now, so apparently they're all fucking timelords or there's some retarded mana-esque resource system
-There's an easter egg where you can annoy a peep somehow

That's what I could glean from a cursory glance. I'm going to try to load some of the mesh files into Unity.

>>2782110
Well the spinning coaster is the last coaster, so you'd better appreciate it.

>>2782124

like giga
or a working woodie

>>2781957
>Tutorials for opening bathrooms
why would anyone need that

>>2782778
I struggle to sometimes open them myself anon

UI scaling when?

After all the years I've played this game I never knew the water blue color was actually based on the map's water color. Or is that OpenRCT only?

>>2783131
It's the water color.
It's the same in RCT and RCT2.

Hm, thinking of making a new collab at the moment, but am trying to think of a clever idea for it...

Think one could get done without boundaries? Like No Borders?

can anyone identify this park?
>>>/sp/63393676

>>2783209
Google says PortAventura.

>>2783209
>>2783225
anon is right, it's port aventura

the red coaster in the back is dragon khan, it once held the world record for most inversions. (8)

is a park too hard if your maximum loan is 8K and your only coaster is a togo?

they put in a server list now, no longer have to advertise on reddit. just had a group of people from the netherlands drawing dicks.

>>2783279
>can't build above tree line

That might be too excessive in difficulty. Maybe I should change a few things.

>>2783287
I'll play it. Too many scenarios focus on the comfy aspect and not enough on difficulty.

>>2783291
I dunno man. People prefer <4 intensity and I can't even place a haunted house. Goal is 1200 guest by Y4. Can't see that ever happening.

>>2783295
>>2783291


I'm gonna try and see if it's actually doable before I upload it anywhere. Trying to decide whether the ride height should be unlimited but with harder guest gen or vice versa. Guest intensity is a hard thing too. Not sure if I should leave it as default, <4 or >7. Also, it'll be park entrance fee with guests carrying ~£20 so that'll make cash generation harder. There's no construction rights or further areas to purchase. You get everything in the Mars area.

Doing some landscaping and shit right now

Passwords seem to be possible now. Maybe thats the way to go.

>>2783347
Alright, I cba to test it any more. It's pretty hard. Goal is to get 180k park value by year 4. Can't get more than £20 per guest entry fee and the guest cap comes in pretty fast. Haven't had more than 300 guests with all this stuff. Some stuff will probably have to be changed to either make it a bit easier or harder.

The ride selection is pretty sparse too, starting with reverse freefall, mini, spiral, air powered and togo coaster. Will probably drop reverse freefall coaster from the initial ride list since it's 2gud. There's very little space to build much and building high up is expensive as fuck.

HERE COMES THE MONEEEEEEEY

>>2783153
I still wanna see a playing card suits collab

>>2783437
So upload it anyway. I'll beat it.

>>2783461
Build a dangling-legs roller coaster. Have it immediately go into a half loop and then end. Should only cost $500. Set the launch speed so it doesn't fly off the tracks, drop it everywhere there's space, and you'll see what it means to print money.

To be fair, the ride's over two decades old and is pretty intense.

Nah, Nemesis is just quite old, but it's one of the best in the country because it feels like it'll break your neck

Oh no, shocker. Human error claims another victim.

A lot of parks choose not to so that you go yourself to ride it.

well, ill wave to you while im crossing the ocean in the other direction to visit some of the euro coasters ive seen posted.

>>2786569
I agree with human error being the cause, but that's regardless bad for business.

Heard the park was empty a week after the incident.

>>2786630
Fucking this.
Helix in Liseberg looks like so much fun.

>>2784804
I don't understand why they seem to have literally built it in a ditch.

>>2787182
It's more exciting. Passing through narrow spaces at high speed feels faster than if the ride were out in the open.

Just built this wooden coaster inspired by Harry Traver's designs, particularly the Riverview Park Bobs and the Rye Playland Airplane.

>>2785717
What was the cause of the accident anyway? I heard about the accident but it was too early on to have a definite "this was the cause" so I never found out what happened.

>>2787304
I think it was second car dispatched before first car had cleared the first lift. Lift failed and first car rolled back into second car.

>>2787182
Local environment regulations in the area of Alton Towers forbids building anything above the tree line.

That's where the mission idea comes from in RCT.

>>2787286
Comfy/10

>>2787304
An empty train had stalled on the track, triggering the block system and stopping the train full of passengers at the top of the lift hill like it was supposed to in the event of a train occupying the block section ahead of it.
Ride operator overrode the block system, causing the loaded train to move into the occupied block section, and the rest is history.

>>2787719
1: Why did he override it?
2: On a scale of 1 to 10, how fired was he?

>>2787650
>Local environment regulations in the area of Alton Towers forbids building anything above the tree line
>still call the park Alton TOWERS
Nice.

>>2787650
Pretty sure Oblivion is over the tree line.
That said both Nemesis and Air did a good job of making me fear for my legs, which only added to the excitement. I loved how they kinda hug the terrain and are still great rides.

Got an update on how OpenRCT2 multiplayer would work. Found out that the desyncing can be ignored (No after affects), and you can avoid the staff problem by not immediately placing them! Everything works! I will remake the server in a bit. Build number will be 1442. Will post ip (and password) after everything is set up. Just make sure the "Stay connected after desynchronization" check-box is checked when you join.

>>2788123
Wouldn't that result in Bad Stuff Happening if two people tried to edit the same space after one (or both) of them desyncs, or does the server catch up later?

>>2788178
that's why we build in separate spaces

>>2788123

He was unaware of the fact the unloaded train was stalled and the loaded train was purposefully stopped, he probably thought it was just another one of the ride's interesting quirks.

>>2789396
45 degree turns are still one size only, but you can make any sort of special element (including helixes) while going diagonal to the grid

>>2789592
If I can figure out how to get the latest build without re-downloading the entire game I will yeah, parkitect seems to have no way to self update yet, it looks like I might have to re download the entire thing just to make a tiny update

>you can make sexy, hot, steamy, twisty wood

you can edit track pieces to be any shape you want by opening the park file in a text editor, people have already made woodie corkscrews and delicious hybrids

There is a spooktober comp going on? Still gotta finish one from last year[/spoler]

>>2792479
>At the same time, it’s clear from our review of the Beta that some of you also desire the ability to build tracks with predefined lines and curves. Thus, we are adding that functionality to the coaster system to give you both options. It’s truly the best of both worlds.
YES

>>2791907
I've seen so, this general is also a lot slower than last year isnt he?

>>2792479
Where can I sign up for the public testing? Or can only people who pre-ordered it test?

So this is basically turned into RCTW general?

>>2792856
Only for as long as RCTW is a talking point.
It will die off once the game is released and everybody realizes it's shit.

Totally not hyped for RCTW

>>2772363
>mfw the Devs cater to the "lelele death coaster XDDDDDD" crowd

Stop bitching about RCTW it will never be good and start posting RCT2 related stuff.. This gen really went to shit, start get competition going, get people post content here. Sorry for my rant, but im disappointed

>>2793052
Well, do it yourself. Crying and moaning is worse for the thread than talking about something kinda related.

Here, take a dark ride I built ages ago!

>>2793052
did you guys know it got delayed?

>>2793581
Well, at least it has a better chance at not sucking as much, seems more sane than having it literally come out in as little as a month. At least they're realizing that having it out by December was a shitty idea and that they need a few more months until completion, instead getting abused into making the deadline whether the game is complete or not.

Still don't feel like buying it again

>>2793606
"Instead of getting abused" is what I meant to say

>>2793896
I'm >>2788123
And I can tell you that it does work, but it shouldn't work. The dependencies it requires don't exist on certain distros (such as CentOS, the on I've been trying to get it to run on), and these dependencies are for running AND building it and is version specific at build-time, which means that the Docker build script they have cannot work on other distros except for arch. Worse is the fact that it has some bugs unannounced to Windows, and apparently, we are the ONLY ones finding them, and getting relevant data from crashes and how to debug crashes is out of my league.

>>2793829
There has been some attempts to try and get it onto Debian on a fork by someone who made the Docker build script, but sadly, he has no idea how to Debian, so no. I would, but I don't know how to .deb.

Also, a new update on getting the server working. After I said that, I am going to make a Docker script to build and run OpenRCT2. Shouldn't take me too long (hopefully). I'll get right on it when I get home. If we find any more problems, I will try to document it this time.
Also, can someone give me a link to the save I've been using for the server?

For all its problems, RCT3 and its expansions had a lot of rides.

>>2793632
station through the loop, queue line through the loop, pathing through the loop, lots of scenery and path interactions. Also, Verticals have preeetttyyyy good stats

It's weird, I always end up done with the scenario and most of what I want to build about a year or so early, so then about six months before the end, when I've paid off the loan and everything, I just get the sudden urge to spam trees all over the map.

I kind of like how it looks, though I presume most people would disagree.

>>2794964
>that light blue woodie

>>2794964
Your coasters are a total clusterfuck, try to come up with a general plan before you start building one, stick to it, and adapt it at the end

>>2794964
>that huge ass River Rapids

yeah but why though

>>2795182

Yeah, my coaster building is still pretty crappy. Here's an attempt at trying to get a general idea of what I want to build, going something along the lines of "go up really high, then some staggered drops, some back-and-forth with a second smaller peak, and in the end the coaster crosses under all the straights from before before cutting around and going back to the station". I think it at least looks somewhat presentable.

>>2795310

I had recently researched River Rapids, saw that hillside as an interesting target for a ride, and it eventually developed into another clusterfuck. One big problem is that I don't give up on ride designs. I'll go back and change something a bit if necessary, but in general, once I lay down a path, that's where it is. Then, about 50% of the design later, it turns out that what I did back there causes a problem, and then the design devolves into trying to sort of work around my earlier fuckups. That leads to really fucking retarded shit like building a straight path above the station platform because I ran out of room to make the return.

I should probably stop that.

>>2795326
I get where you were going with that coaster, but the flow aint right. Imagine riding the coaster, i bet it wouldn't be a enjoyable ride when you go on that coaster. Think organic

>>2795326
You're not gonna get very good stats if you build like this matey. Here's some things to consider

Staggered drops are a fun idea, but they also sound uncomfortable. If you want a drop to be "jarring", maybe just have a less steep slope before the steep part, that way it adds a sense of "suspense" as well (green line)

The reason your coaster is uncomfortable is because of too much speed when going up hills (red circles). Riders will have get a lot of negative G forces, meaning your legs get crushed up into the restraints, because your body has a lot of momentum going upwards. The green circle is how you want a drop to be, with lots of airtime and not as much negative G forces. Also, you might wanna avoid turns after drops when you can. Good luck!

>>2795326
that ride looks really unpleasant senpai

way too high for a woodie and doesn't really do anything with the speed it has

>>2795326
A woodie higher than maybe 60-80 feet is really difficult to make with good stats or aesthetics. 50-60 is best with the tools available in this game.

>>2796818
What about the out and back contest we had recently? There were plenty of good ones over 80 feet.

>>2796854
Speaking of contests, is there gonna be another one anytime soon? I could make a poster or something if anyone has an idea. The general is kinda lonely lately.

>>2796883
Sure! Contest are great! Maybe a winter themed one?

I think we should stick to smaller contests. Just a ride or two with theming. Lower investment required means more participation.

Somehow managed to finish this... Any suggestions on name or how to decorate it?
Also r8?

>>2797114
>that unbanked curve before the last brakes

>>2797130
Didn't have the space for banking it. The chain lift was in the way of allowing me to do it.

>>2797114
All of your turns, expect 2 small ones, are all going to the right. Look into that for a bit, overall it looks quite comfy

>>2797157
I know what you mean, but I can't think of how to fix it, and I'm afraid of touching it and completely break it.

Also, for some reason it won't allow me to save the design...

>>2797181

>>2797239
I like this one and >>2797224 the most. Good job on the park, anon.

Alright, gonna whip up a contest thing. Anyone got an idea for deadlines? Something like December 20th? That's about a month. I'm also thinking the theme could be launching coasters, with no restrictions to speed or coaster type. But I'm not too good at thinking of a theme. It has to be something inclusive though.

>>2797886
This desu, just make it a christmas contest. Any ride is accepted.

>>2798074
>allowing cheats and hacks for a contest

are you mad?

>cheats in a contest
I don't see why they should not be allowed. No one will vote for a hacked mess but some minor zero clearance and merging in the right hands can make a really interesting coaster. And it's not like a great vanilla coaster can't be better than a great hacked coaster.

>>2798074
I'd say keep the rule about any winter theme but call it a Christmas contest to encourage x-mas related stuff. Christmas is fun!

Also, allow any kind of ride.

>>2798102
>implying vanilla-only isn't the true sign of a patrician coaster

rather than disallow custom scenery and the use of OpenRCT's features, maybe have 2 winners, best vanilla and best openrct.

>>2798171
>implying patrician is bad

Marx pls go

What is this zero clearance thingy?

>>2798180
Disabling clearance allows you to place multiple things in the exact same place. So if you'd do it with a coaster, you'd get around the restrictions in place that prevent you from making a coaster you actually want.

>>2798167

This is really what I was going for with the 'hacks are fine' thing. I find vanilla so restrictive myself that when I build I sometimes struggle to make what I really want. I figured other people might feel the same.

>>2798174
The thing is, what would coaster related count as? I used it in another contest and I'd guess there's at least 5-6 places where I've used zero clearance for the scenery. Several winners would just be confusing.

>>2798178
But patrician is good. I never implied it was bad.
Vanilla coasters are pure, hacked coasters are tainted and dirty.

Redid it.

>>2798751
Oh man, I know how you feel. Had both legs in a cast for 6 weeks. Did you get a wheelchair, or crutches? Hope you get better soon. That op saved my ability to use my legs.
