What other hobbies to you have?
Oh boy… Where do I even begin? I make hiphop, rap, r&b, and pop music. It’s all up on every major streaming platform and SoundCloud of course! My best song, “Burnin’” was featured on 104.5 WRFU indie radio in Urbana, Illinois. Once DJ BJ Clark heard it for the first time, he played it 3 times and then gave me a phone call interview and I was really nervous, lol! Super cool though. The song is featured in my Beachside Bay Preview video. I have made 40 songs so far. Ok… Weird… Last time I checked my Spotify listeners count it was 9 or 10, now it’s 53. Interesting. Lol. If anyone would like to listen, here is my Spotify :) Xecronius - Spotify I also made a fake gold record to help keep me motivated, but haven’t been feeling it lately. Funny thing is the record is a Jonas Brother’s record I painted gold. I have most of my albums in frames as well on my wall. As you can see, I am a bit obsessed with California. I’m originally from there but have been in Colorado for 20 years this October. _______________________________________ I make videos as well! My most recent one is from my visit to Elitch Gardens in Denver, Colorado this past Friday with my best pal! Super fun day! My videos are created with most of the editing process already done while filming. I don’t like to mess around when it comes to making videos look as professional as possible. I have made videos for a few music venues, The Wild Goose Saloon in Parker, Colorado, one in particular was an ad for Drowning Pool, (Everyone knows the song, “Let the bodies hit the floor!”) along with Saliva when they were on tour last summer, and The Englewood Tavern, as well as a few spots in Utah! Comic Con SLC was a blast! Here is that link for the Elitch Gardens video as well for your interest! I emailed Elitch’s marketing team just for fun about the video. A Fun Day at Elitch Gardens! _______________________________________ I have been working on a tabletop PvP battle board game along with it’s RPG video game counterpart called, Zeradia! I have never even touched DnD, Magic the Gathering, or any other card game besides Yu-Gi-Oh! When I was a kiddo. Here is Zeradia! If anyone would like me to explain the game’s mechanics, please feel free to ask! :) it’s very simple, but intense. I got the battle cards printed on a custom game card website. The board is made from a wooden base, poster board castle walls, towers from marker caps, tooth picks and duct tape for the flags, (removable to fit in the box) and 50 custom character trading cards! I’ve been told by a few game shop owners that they would like to see the game on their shelves, but lately I haven’t even been motivated to make music, just dealing with life. Anywayyyyyy… Here is a screenshot of the RPG version of Zeradia! The game is being put on hold for now, but I use RPG Maker MZ. Here is the concept map that sparked the idea. This map, including the rocks, trees, and grass texture for the board game are all hobby train landscape pieces. The mountains with the gold mines are rocks and aluminum foil, the stalagmites and ground for the boss dungeon are paper machete and baking soda for the snow. The tents are little pieces of foam which leads to my next showcase… _______________________________________ IRL RuneScape weapons! Made from EVA foam, paint, duct tape, yarn, etc. Dragon Longsword, Abyssal Whip, a single Dragon Claw, and a DDS aka Dragon Dagger Poison ++. From left to right, Hitpoints Cape of Completion aka Lvl 99 (Max Cape), Elysian Spirit Shield, Fire Cape, and my personal favorite, an Armadyl Godsword. (I have a hilarious story about my first Bandos Godsword where I got scammed in game many years ago.) ______________________________________ I have been playing guitar for 17 years without a single professional lesson. I have been in 3 bands and the third, I am the bassist. Gone through 9 guitars and I don’t own a single one, but here are some of my old setups. _______________________________________ I also collect swords, knives, a dagger and a nearly complete suit of armor. _______________________________________ I also do voice impressions. Lol. That’s about it. Cheers! Xecronius

What other hobbies to you have?
Maiden has been my favorite band since Middle School. So awesome to see that! I’ve probably owned at least 7 guitars and my style is pretty much blues and Maiden inspired metal with some hard rock. Been playing guitar since 6th grade. I’m 29 now. Smooth tremolo sound and sweet Adrian Smith signature! Up the Irons!!! \m/

Community Chat Discussion 14: Fallen Coasters
Interestingly enough, years ago in RCT3 I actually made red and blue dueling B&M launch coasters that had a pagoda station. I never even heard of Dueling Dragons before then. That’s kind of cool! Lol.

Oh definitely. I have a laptop thats about 3 years old that I bought refurbished and it only has an integrated graphics card. I will have to get at least a gaming one or a tower. Eventually once Im burnt out on RCT3 Ill most likely get into PC1. Not sure if my computer can even handle PC2. Plus for my Elitch Gardens re-creation I will have to do interiors for some buildings, such as 4 main street buildings and the food court. Thats about it, lol Just keep some doors closed and have the peeps stroll on through glass, haha! I also have a secret project that is being overlooked by Cody.- Ripping models of peeps
My guess is to find the .dat files for the peeps? I'm not entirely sure.- Wonder Beach Boardwalk

Park Update 2! Here is update #2 for Beachside Bay! I am about 65% finished with the park! WOO! Added: More foliage to complete the surrounding areas of the rest of the east side of the park that weren't shown in the preview video or screenshots. Finished Berserker's station with themeing, and a utility bulding, still needing to add station gates. A reverse launched free fall with themeing. Path fountains to help peeps cool off instead of going into the shark infested water. Umbrellas and chairs to the northeast side of the end of the entrance main street. Mist machines around the main fountain and some of the seating areas because, why not? :) Changes: Color scheme to Berserker. Color scheme to Big Bob. (Ferris Wheel) Shuttle Loop supports for Pepto Bismol. (Boomerang style Vekoma corkscrew coaster) I can't remember because I'm tired and it's 12:32 AM, lol. Extra: Screenshot for the Coronado Island style, Beachside Hotel as a great suggestion by Wolfpaw, thanks bro! (I know the hotel is small but these people are paying some good money to stay at this exclusive spot. California ain't cheap, ya know! xD) Full Screenshot of the Park so far. By the way, I name my rides, staff, stalls, etc weird names because I get bored, so if you happen to download the park when it's finished, please excuse the silliness.- Beachside Bay Amusement Park

Thanks peeps! Yeah, this is a fun build for sure. I have no clue when it will actually be done but it’s about halfway finished with the major details. I used to do videography for a few venues out here in CO and I am a stickler for glamour shots. I can share some of my video work on discord too.- LOD rendering for CSO's

Beachside Bay Amusement ParkCome one, come all to Beachside Bay Amusement Park! Bring the whole family to come and take a ride on our first attraction, West Coaster, right along the shoreline! We have our historical Carousel and plenty of thrill rides for your adrenaline boost! If you're daring, scream our way on our latest steel B&M roller coaster, Berserker! Originally opening in 1945, Beachside Bay proudly sits on the Southern California coast southwest of Los Angeles. The Wells family has owned and operated the park for over 75 years and will be celebrating it's 80th anniversary this year in 2025! While some renovations to the park are being constructed until this coming summer, we welcome guests from near and far with exciting new rides, incredible food, and Mama' Dee's homemade icecream! Beachside Bay was an idea that sparked from a dream by the famous Walton D. Wells with his prototype in 1942. Within just three years he turned his childhood dream of owning an amusement park into a reality! His grandson, James, "Jimmy" Wells alongside his wife Anna Wells are the current owners and operators with their two children, Jada and David Wells enjoying their great-grandfather's vision! Here at Beachside Bay we host an in-park hotel named, Sandy Suites, and will ensure you that West Coaster will not operate during sleep hours from 8:00 PM to 11:00 AM. We are also proud to present a new and exciting firework display everyday in the summer to celebrate 80 years of operations! If you forget sunscreen, towels, and umbrellas you may purchase them within the park, and the beach is available at opening and closing hours from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Thank you for visiting Beachside Bay, and we can't wait to see you! "Where fun and sun, come together as one..." - Walton D. Wells (1904-1963) This Park is a Work in Progress. :)- LOD rendering for CSO's
