RCT2 Disney Parks

[ohiolandshark]

I recreated Disneyland, Magic Kingdom, and California Adventure using RCT2 and custom scenery. The Link has screenshots and ways to download. Enjoy the parks and feel free to comment. I'm currently getting an updated version of the parks online for download and will post when they are available. Thanks

OK, I looked all the parks over, and I think there was a lot of good stuff and also a lot of bad stuff in there.

Pros: Your scenery work is excellent. All the buildings and the scenery around the rides look fantastic! Main Street (both of them) were incredible, and the facades for most of the attractions were very well-done. The castles were both great, and I was especially impressed by the Tower of Terror, that was some great scenery work.

Cons: There seems to only be one major bad thing about these parks, but unfortunately, it's a big one: realism. Lots of things are not how they are in real life. It looks like you were going for a recreation, but ride layouts are totally off, some rides are not where they should be, (Indiana Jones is not underground, though they make you think it is.) and Big Thunder Mountain at Disney World is not that big.

Anyway, you have the scenery down, but you need to do more research on ride layouts and such, or ask questions and visit the parks. So, basically, you're just the opposite of me in RCT2 skills, I can do realism but I suck at scenery. :D Go figure...

Since I live in Ohio, it's difficult to see the parks more then I have, but I still update the ride layouts on my personal parks at home as I'm improving things I feel could be better. But I wanted to make sure that overall feel of the parks were achieved before I got into the nit-picky details.

I can't seem to open the ZIP file, it tells me the file is damaged.

That's the first I've heard of that happening. I'll take a look at it. If anyone else is having this problem, let me know.

I see how it could be difficult to get the facts straight from way out there in Ohio. (why not a CP recreation? :D) I would suggest you download the other recreations of these three parks, (only one of each that I know of, and use them to base the rides on. The scenery work isn't half as good as yours, IMO, but they have a lot of the details doen and that might help you to improve yours. :)
And about the file, for some reason each park gave me an error trapper the first time I tried to open it, then worked fine the second time. The folder unzipped for me though...RCT weirdness, I guess...

Never mind, seems like I got it to work. Checking it out now.

ou may have seen this on a few other sites (where I'm known as Highball, hence the name in the logo), but if not, here's the lowdown: I started this park back in 2004 and finished the first version in 2005. The second version was completed in late 2005 to celebrate Disneyland's 50th anniversary and now I'm on this, the third version. The basic premise of my Disneyland Resort is that it's a "greatest hits" of the Magic Kingdoms along with a few new ideas here and there. I'll try to update this as often as possible but I'm a pretty slow builder. Below is the land-by-land breakdown of the park's progress. The stuff listed under each land is what's left to do in that section.

What are you talking about Seena? The park on this thread is someone else's
