Always was interested in long exposure shots but never really tried them myself - looks cool, thanks for sharing GINNY!

Very interesting layout, yea I heard about this as well. Extremely interesting location too - does Oklahoma get that many tourists? I can't think of many reasons to visit Oklahoma, haha (unless this is their aim) Also very interesting that it's a bunch of past Disney Imagineers working on this - I know things haven't been going well for Disney recently (especially in their theme parks) so a lot of Imagineers have decided to leave. Hopefully, it gets built - I don't see myself going to Oklahoma anytime soon but I would imagine a lot of people from surrounding states would flock to visit. I would also imagine that there are now sky trams or gondolas due to the weather they get there but who knows! Interested to see where this leads...

Looks cool so far! It's amazing what people can make in this game just by combining different pieces. For your categories question, we have a tag system here that lets you tag your topic as either a park, coaster, dark ride, structure, etc. If you want to view projects only from a specific category (or multiple) you can click on that tag or use our search system. In the future, if there's an overwhelming number of topics then I may split them into subforum categories but for now, I think the tag system is good for what need!

Getting better! I know you're still not done with the pyro choreography but for the sections that look more filled I still think you need MOAR! This is a very VERY powerful short song with extremely intense, easily recognizable beats - fill her up with peonies and mines and ground bursts! I wanna see that set EXPLODE 🤩 Seriously though, amazing progress! This is such a fun short show so far and that music keeps getting stuck in my head - where is it from if I may ask?

Cool! Agreed with Kablary, there are so few Universal recreations out there. Haven't been to that park in forever (rip Twister </3) You have a great start so far, the iconic arches look awesome! Will you also be doing Islands or just Universal for now? Would love to see someone do VelociCoaster!

Very very nice starts, those colors are gorgeous, and LOVE what you're doing with those lights on the walls in the back of your set. Very excited to see how this progresses, but I know your show is about to get super insane.. also very much looking forward to that 😆

HE FINALLY POSTED IT! Very nice start, love the parking lot so far (much better than the Minecraft one we tried to make). The parking entrance also looks very nice! Looking forward to the attractions you're gonna build. 🙃 (Also, amazing logo)

Never seen someone recreate this show before! An exciting project for sure, can't wait to see what you both can do!

Finally, someone focuses more on the WDW Haunted Mansion rather than the CA one! Pretty cool take on the classic ride, really loved your hallway sections and how the inside of the mansion looked - agreed with Wabigbear too, your lighting is awesome in this one!

Some really cool special effects you have there, especially with that ghost lady on the screens. Pretty interesting concept too of the boat ride that turns into a coaster! I'm also always a sucker for the Pirates of the Caribbean music so it's a thumbs up for me 😊

Pretty fun little ride, this feels like something that you would find at your local fair - it's pretty adorable 😆

Welcome to ParkCrafters Ginnygingingin, now go share your PlanCo parks already 😊 Also, you should repost your older shows, also also where is popstars

It's when you add the top and bottom black bars to give it a different aspect ratio so the viewer's focus is more on the center of the video rather than getting overwhelmed by everything that's on the screen. A lot of movies use this technique so it's considered very cinematic. I've seen it done on some pyro shows before and thought about trying it out but never did!

Looking cool so far! Those are some pretty powerful beats you have there so don't be afraid to really show that through your pyro, no holding back!! While lasers can do a very good job of showing fast-paced sequences, what really drives home that wow and impactful feeling will always be your pyro, so feel free to go nuts with it! Can't wait to this progress more, it's coming out seriously awesome for a first show back in years! Also, the letterboxing is cool, I've thought about doing that before but never did.

The second you mentioned the word "Starmine" it immediately reminded me - your shows were always the 'avant-garde' of the community, something really experimental and different. It was always cool to see - hope you come back to making more shows!

This project just gets prettier and prettier - love how realistic everything looks and how detailed you're going with every nook and cranny!

Pretty neat idea! Knights of Cydonia will always be my favorite Muse song, glad you included it 😆 Definitely very reminiscent of Rock N Roller Coaster - though I like how your overall track is longer!

That's a super neat idea, an interactive ride like that. Love the direction this ride is going in!

I wish your park was real, I really wanna ride that coaster at night, haha Looking great so far!

Now that is coming together really nicely! That fence and ground foliage add so much, really great updates so far!

OH HELL YEA SINOOOOOOOOOOO!! Been watching you make this show so long ago and now to see you finally back in RCT3 is super cool.. and what a hell of a show to come back to. I am so ready for more Sino WTF lasers 💖 I love you

Starting to come together nicely! How did you get your ground textures to look like that? I don't believe that's how the default grass looks unless this is just some custom texture/scenery?

JARON!! It's super awesome to see you here, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT SHENANIGANS WE GET OURSELVES INTO THIS TIME Welcome to ParkCrafters, lana banana!!

This is super cool, can you be my mom? I would love to have a mom like you and have a game room and play table top games 🙃
