Welcome to ParkCrafters! Excited to see what you'll create and share and enjoy your time here!

I've heard Six Flags has not been doing well lately but have never been to one before... are most of the parks closing across the country?

Welcome back Dumaan!! This is seriously giving me MGL vibes back on the vPyro days when he made his own Dubai set with his own show on it. You are the next torch bearer it seems 😅 Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Nice to see another show in the works, curious to see what the final project will look like!

This is so nostalgic for me, I remember the days when I first got RCT3 and I'd make parks like this, haha - thanks for sharing!

Planet Zoo was way more popular and a bigger financial success than Planet Coaster was to Frontier so I'm not surprised that a sequel is in the works. I haven't touched much of Planet Zoo myself but interested to see what the main focus of the sequel will be!

Thanks for posting this! Was going to share this yesterday but you beat me to it, nice to have a free little addition to the game!

Hey all, haven't seen this shared yet, so in case you haven't heard the news... Frontier has announced Planet Zoo 2! You can read more info on it here:https://www.planetzoogame.com/news/celebrating-six-years-planet-zoo Also, here's a video celebrating six years of Planet Zoo: What do you all think of Planet Zoo 2? What are you hoping to see?

I'm sorry your first PlanCo2 project?? This is... I don't even have the words for it - it doesn't even look like PlanCo2! I absolutely adore your environmental design of the outside areas, and that dragon sequence? This is seriously impressive! Thanks so much for sharing, I really enjoyed this and it makes me want to open PlanCo2 back up and take another crack at it!

Not sure about the park building/coaster building side of the community since I was mainly on the pyro side but the pyro people definitely had their fads.. a few that come to mind: Waterscreens.. waterscreens everywhere - at one point everyone was including waterscreens once World of Color debuted into their shows with some video overlayed on top of it, got old real quick, haha CASTLE SHOWS - I know this one has never really died, but everyone and the mother would create a Disney-themed firework show using the castle as a set and post it everywhere. So. many. castle. shows. Baba Yetu - this song was everywhere at one point in the pyro community. So many people created a fountain show to this song! 360 shows - This isn't exactly a fad, but there was a point where everyone was creating a 360 show (a show that can be viewed from any angle with a moving/rotating camera) with a minimal set design. You can thank this show for starting this. Realistic effects - The AFE in RCT3 is a hell of a tool that can create literally anything you can think up, but for such a long time, everyone was so fixated on realistic effects. If your show didn't have realistic effects, it was usually criticized and not viewed highly. This fad has changed since those days, and we now see more fantasy and experimental effects - yay! Calling yourself a production or company - This is one I'm guilty o,f and one that doesn't necessarily only affect the pyro community. At one point, everyone was 'branding' themselves and all their work as a studio or company production. "ErnieG014 Productions" was mine that I'm 100% guilty of 😅 I'm sure there are tons more that I can't think up of but these are some that I've witnessed on the pyro-side of the community!

Yeah, I've seen this happen before as well because I use RCT3 Vanilla to make pyro too. The game originally released in a 4:3 aspect ratio, but if you set a 16:9 aspect ratio in Options.txt like Wabigbear mentioned, it should work. I don't recommend setting it to a high resolution if you have a 4K monitor because the UI doesn't scale with the custom resolution, and it can get very small to read (especially when working with numbers in the AFE). I usually manually reduce my monitor screen resolution in Display Settings on Windows (just right click on your desktop background and click on Display Settings) and set a custom resolution in Options.txt, which makes it much easier to see.

This is seriously impressive - this might be one of the most realistic and gorgeous parks I've ever seen in PlanCo2! Some of these shots don't even look like they came from the game!

You're in the running - good luck!

I'm not sure if Apple allows you to access those files on an iPad? You may have to plug your iPad into a computer and look through the file system through a third-party program. I don't use anything Apple, but my best guess is that this stuff would be located in iCloud. If it's not in there, then you'll probably have to manually go through the filesystem using some third-party software on a computer.

Reminder to all who wish to participate, feel free to just send your screenshots in this thread or via personal message, and you'll be included in the competition!

Can't believe it's been 9 years already, I remember you asking for Epcot CS way back in the day 🤣 Looking forward to many more years in the identity crisis park 😉
