40 Minute Washboard Solo

You may notice the text on the previous updates is white now (or black, if you're viewing on light mode). This is intentional. Watch this space

Hi All, Hershey's Hawaiian Escape was a rather famous park by Coasterdude5 that was basically the RCT3 equivalent of a Pink Floyd album. It ran for 55 seasons straight (a line about HHE's 10th and Hershey's 100th being the same year means it ran from 1997-2052) before shutting down and being replaced by a resort with an indoor waterpark. And a zoo. And then the whole thing was removed and replaced with a medical facility. But Anyway, what I'm asking about is the Year 30 download that at one point existed. I don't mean the Year 55 file - I have that (via Wayback machine). The Year 30 download was only up for a very specific window of time, which was June 2007 to February 2008. Wayback didn't get the page with the file until June 2018 when it was just a 404 redirect to Coaster101. Obviously there's little chance anyone here downloaded the file when it was up, but maybe they know somehow who did. In any case I want to see that file at some point just to get a good comparison on what the park looked like then vs. Year 55. Can anyone be of assistance?

Thanks! I usually don't use all that much CS because I'm still relatively new. Also because I'm lazy. The text is black because I wrote the update in Google Docs, then C+P'd it over, and it kept the black color for some reason. So yeah you may want to use white background when reading my updates ;)

Well. Let's try this again. --- CoasterInsider.net — April 15th, 2023 Thread started by Evelyn85 in Trip Reports Sprightly Park: An average trip report about an average park Oh no. It’s me again. To kick off a new season, as I’ve done about 5 or 6 times before (in a row), I decided to take a little quickie trip to Sprightly Park up in Burlington (A/N: The one in Vermont of course). This was mostly continuing what is now tradition, but also ties into some recent rumors swirling around regarding a few attractions. And also because my cousins, who I typically visit around this time, live all of 5 or so minutes away. 8:00 AM, and the parking lot already looks like this. It should be of no surprise that they cordoned it off later in the day because it hit capacity. Welcome to 2023! I skipped the Carousel this time around as I’ve ridden it several dozen times before and I have more important matters to attend to. Like War Bird, which I lost the original photo I took for so here’s a cheat shot from 2022. It’s a rather intense little mite! Next was the New for 2021 ride, the Boomerang they poached from Bumbly Beach’s carcass. I elected to skip it since I’ll be back later this year anyway and I already have the cred. I also lost the photo for this one, hence the 2022 cheat shot. And that brought me to Shooting Starr, with two Rs for some reason, the park’s oldest operating coaster. (Fun Fact: I found out, via research, that this is where the park’s old Cycle Railway operated until the Great Depression. Interesting!) It being a one of a kind it is of course a special ride, but unfortunately it wasn’t at its best today. Oh well… After that, for some reason, I decided “Hey, why don’t I go on Head Spin?” I forgot they run this one especially intense. Oops. This is where the rumors come in. According to trusted insiders, Wild Mouse (which, I must remind you, is dire) will not be around in 2024. Thankfully. The general consensus is this will be making way for a major new coaster that will interact with Thunder Canyon, the local river rapids, and stretch all the way to Abyss. Maybe it’ll be a B&M Dive? Speaking of, next was Thunder Canyon. With Logjam closing in 2006 to make way for Abyss and Sawmill Splashdown giving its last rides in 2019 to be replaced by Flying Cobra (the park never opened in 2020, remember?), this is the last water ride standing. It’s rather necessary considering Sprightly never got a waterpark, or at least not one on site (Plymouth Rock Resort & Indoor Waterpark, also owned by Cedar Fair and opened in 2005, essentially counts as the park’s waterpark). Layout wise it’s basically a clone of the rapids ride Carowinds used to have, and experience wise it’s somewhat unremarkable? And the local Scooters, Cardinal. Snapping is allowed….to a point. Next up is Dominator, the tallest ride in the entire park (A/N: Please please please just pretend that white support is a third tower, I got lazy and copied nathan8848’s Dorney Dominator scenery and towers). Quote of the day #1, from who appeared to be a young teenager: “Wow, Dad, does that go to space?” Sorry, kiddo. Not quite. Quote of the day #2 came in the queue-line to the park’s not-quite-inverting-anymore hyper coaster, Son of Burlington Beast (remember the last Son of Beast? Yeah, me too.), from the mouth of someone who was, at maximum, 8 years old: “That motherf██ker is faster than the Space Shuttle! Wow!” About 5 minutes of stifling giggles followed. “From the mouths of babes”, indeed… Confirmed: still the best coaster in the park. No thanks. Ahead was a fairly sizable B&M Floorless coaster named Abyss, but the area around it is so wooded that this is essentially the only good shot of it you can get without being on the train. It was decent. No thanks, we’re running out of time. Time for a rant: In most parks the path does a full loop so if you walked all the way around you could easily get back to the front in no time. Here? Not so. I had to walk allllll the way back around because for some reason they never ended up completing the circuit to Camp Snoopy. Mercifully, the rumor mill is also saying that the 2024 additions will rectify this. Speaking of, Camp Snoopy. I had to skip it because it was getting too crowded and also because I wanted to ride the train, but then had to go immediately after to be able to make the dinner I had planned with my cousins at the Pixels n’ Polygons in downtown Burlington. Final rare train ride vantage point photo dump: After that, I breezed out of the gates, slipped out of the still gruesomely crowded parking lot, and made it to the Pixels n’ Polygons restaurant with just 2 minutes to spare by my calculations. It was a great night, and it brought me my first park of 2023, too! I’ll be watching the rumor mill like a hawk for more updates on the Wild Mouse and its possible replacement. Cya! — CoasterInsider.net > The Rumor Mill > Sprightly Park officially retiring Wild Mouse, last rides November 11th Posted by Evelyn85 on July 1st, 2023 Yeah goodbye forever you flaming piece of s██t: Bring on the B&M! --- Yeah so this is my second go at a "other non-Evergreen happenings" thread after the first one got nuked along with every other post made on June 16th, 2023 due to a site error. Hopefully this one stays up, but thankfully if it doesn't I have everything but the final news quote backed up in a Google Doc. You may notice this is also a different park from the original version - this was because I decided I wanted to show this off first. Put yer feedback below!

Yeah....Sometimes I'm worried that I'll end up falling into that trap (again, still learning the ropes - hence why the Invert isn't fully CS'd), in fact that was a reason why Forest Frontiers got pushed back (it would have started in 2007 and been akin to Fraroc's Gateway Park updates on TPR). Attempting to avoid that as much as possible is why I chose this format to tell EG's story, but I'm still worried it'll look poor in comparison to other parks. Thanks for liking it! The 2000s will be fun, but I can't wait to get to modern day. So far I'm up to 1999 in park files.

Pacifcoaster Northwest > Evergreen Gardens > Lost on your park history? Here’s a little lesson… Posted by MsLafayette on May 18th, 2023 This took far longer than it needed to. THE 90’S The land clearing on the former Galaxi site ended up being for Vortex, a B&M sitdown looper. Layout-wise, it is an exact clone of Apocalypse/Firebird at SFA…….but it’s a sitdown. Quite why the park didn’t want stand up trains on it is a mystery, but judging by the reviews I’ve seen of the one at Carowinds I’d say a bullet was dodged. (They also rerouted Smurf Mountain Falls’ queue and exit to make space for it.) Vortex also marked the final addition of the Taft/KECO era. In 1992, Paramount completely bought KECO out, and thus Evergreen Gardens, once more, had new owners - and a new name. 1993 arrived at Paramount’s Evergreen Gardens, and it brought a brand new roller coaster - Top Cat’s Taxi Jam. It is a Zierer Small Tivoli coaster (like Coccinelle at Walibi Belgium) and was a fairly decent hit with the kiddies. It’s alright. I wish they didn’t have to get rid of the lake to put it in, though. 1993 also brought a ride rename - starting this year, Fly Like an Eagle was now known as Flying Falcons……Aww. Not as special. 1994 brought some exciting news - Bubba Gump’s Shrimp Shack came to town! It was located at the very end of International Street, right next to the Eiffel Tower. Oh. Yeah. That too, I guess. Let’s bring you up to speed. In mid 1993 the new park president took a visit to Six Flags Great America and had his ever loving socks rocked off by Batman: The Ride, a B&M Invert. Making a decision almost immediately, very similar to The Bat before, he contacted B&M and asked them to make something like Batman, but bigger. So B&M did. New for 1994 was Top Gun: The Jet Coaster, a 135 foot tall B&M invert with five inversions! It was the massive smash to ring in the new decade the park sorely needed and brought much needed life to a previously undeveloped portion of the park. 1995 was largely forgettable, but near the end of the season a large plot of land was cleared on one side of Evergreen Racer. Just off the heels of a large investment, Evergreen Gardens was gearing up for yet another one. And so Hurler came to the park in 1996! A clone of the rides at Carowinds, Kings Dominion, Pacific Adventure and Kings Peninsula, it was an International Coasters, Inc. creation that stood 83 feet tall and reached speeds of up to 50 miles an hour on what was in hindsight a fairly lacking double out and back layout. It was another big hit back then, of course, but as for how well it aged…….well, let’s compare my thoughts on my first ride on Opening Day 1998 and my last at Evergreen Coasterfest in 2014 (the year before the coaster was removed): 1998: “Wow! I mean, it was slightly bumpy in a few places but overall it’s not that bad!” 2014: “Oh God! We’re going to die in a pile of rotten lumber!” Granted, the other Hurlers weren’t all that smooth either. But the other Hurlers didn’t make a lady who rode both this and Psyclone in its last year of operation think Psyclone was an improvement. They didn’t regularly close in the afternoon because the control box was a temperamental piece of shit. They didn’t make RMC take one look at them and say “No bueno”. This Hurler was flawed. I don’t know if corners were cut in construction, or maybe the wood was cheap, or maybe something happened that screwed it up like Psyclone…..but it was bad. Mercifully, it isn’t around anymore, and that’s a good thing. Evergreen 360 is a wonderful replacement. Also, I don’t have photos, but also in 1996 the park renamed Smurf Mountain Falls to Congo Falls to tie into the “Congo” movie that had come out the previous year. This name lasted the rest of Paramount’s tenure. Near the end of 1996 even more land was cleared near Hurler and the Racer. Some of us thought it was ANOTHER new coaster. Others thought........differently. New for 1997 was Crocodile Dundee’s Boomerang Bay, a brand new waterpark! Containing 11 water slides and several other water attractions, Boomerang Bay brought a refreshing experience to the park that was sorely needed in the days when the Washington sun could work ya over…..and was more of a liability in the many more days when it was overcast, raining, or both. Foreground: The Great Barrier Reef wave pool. Background: the waterpark’s main slide complex, which includes Tasmanian Typhoon, Down Under Thunder and Didgeridoo Falls. DUT is interesting as it is a WhiteWater West Boomerango, I believe the first of its kind. Unlike some other Paramount prototypes, which I am not deliberately aiming at HyperSonic XLC, this one was a decent success and is still operating today. Jackaroo Landing is the waterpark’s kids splash area. As you can see it includes four different mini slides and the required tipping bucket. There’s a lot of water in that bucket you know, apparently more so than usual versions of these. 1998 was an off year, but it sadly saw the end of the Bayern Kurve. It may have made a good home at a small mom and pop park had Paramount not cut it up and scrapped everything but the cars. Oh well. With a large crater now in the middle of Evergreen Peak, the race was on to find out what exactly the replacement of such a beloved ride would be. Theories ranged from a drop tower (not quite yet) to a prototype S&S coaster (No, HyperSonic was never intended for Evergreen Gardens, no it would not have fit) and even to a go-kart track. Yeah. That last one was the right one. And so 1999 brought Days of Thunder to the park. It was a go-kart track. It was good fun, yes, but I wish it hadn’t come at the cost of the Bayern Kurve. At least the spare parts from that helped the Kennywood and CGA versions along….for a while. Up next - the Noughties! More rides! More coasters! More ownership changes! All at Evergreen Gardens! With regards, MsLafayette --- Yay! It's finally out! The 2000's are going to be a fun one. BTW, see if you can guess what type of ride "Evergreen 360" is!

Yeah, the newspaper parts really were....It was mainly like a "forum" thing like a few Cedar Plains post but I started thinking "maybe this material isn't THAT good" overnight, which was another reason why I didn't repost.

Sigh.......Had a big ol new thread posted that was basically "Other events in the RCTFan-verse" (aka the universe Evergreen Gardens is in). First update talked about the sudden abrupt closure of Six Flags Indiana......Then it and everything else posted on the 16th was lost forever due to server issues. As compensation, here's the only screenshot I have of the update: And the park file I had included: Six Flags Indiana (2018).dat I probably won't be redoing it anytime soon, both because I never backed it up and because I soured on the material after remembering it a bit. I MIGHT return to it one day, though... EDIT: Updated the download to add a better version of the Free Spin. If you've already downloaded, replace that file with this new one.

I made a whole "RCT3 detours" thing that I labored long and hard over. Included an RCT3 download and everything. Probably not going to repost it because I didn't make a backup....

I might do a brief "detour" thing in another thread to show off another park I built (another RCT3-ication of a Theme Park Fanon park) soon. Just so you're aware. Also the quote won't disappear EDIT: It disappeared :)

Yeah, The Bat is huge. If you pay close attention you see it's described in past tense only, unlike stuff like the Racer, which gives away its fate. All I'm gonna say is The Bat Returns is not nearly as large as the old Bat.

It's dropped!

Aha! I finished it early! Without further ado, EVERGREEN PARK THE STORY OF WASHINGTON STATE’S LARGEST THEME PARK AN RCT3 PROJECT BY 40 MINUTE WASHBOARD SOLO — Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia Evergreen Gardens Evergreen Gardens, formerly known as “Paramount’s Evergreen Gardens” from 1992 to 2006, is an amusement park in Olympia, Washington. Owned and operated by Cedar Fair, opened on May 11th, 1979 and located adjacent to the intersection between US Highway 101 and the Evergreen Parkway, the park features over (TBD) rides and attractions, of which (TBD, but at least 7) are roller coasters. The park’s name is derived from the state of Washington’s nickname, “The Evergreen State”. — Pacificoaster Northwest > Evergreen Gardens > Lost on your park history? Here’s a little lesson… Posted by MsLafayette on May 11th, 2023 Evergreen Gardens. You’ve heard of it, have you not? (Of course you have, you’re reading this post!) It’s the single largest theme park in Washington state, and one of the largest in the region! But recently I’ve been noticing that some of you newcomers might not know the park’s storied history all that much. Some of you may be wondering “What on earth was “The Bat”?” when looking at the memorial plaque in TBR’s queue line. Others may be asking themselves why The Crypt was unboxed. (I’m not sure either, pals.) For those newcomers, and for that matter anyone who wants to reminisce with me about the history of our dear park, this is the thread to visit. I’ll ask Raelynn to get it pinned to the top. Anyways, let’s begin. THE 70’s, PARK OPENING AND THE 80’s It all began in 1977, when the CEO of Taft Broadcasting went to Olympia on a business trip. While there, he came to the realization that this particular area was practically begging for a major theme park. And as he drove on that now iconic interchange between US-101 and the Parkway, he saw a plot of land just south that would be the perfect location. And so, with that, in June 1977 Taft Broadcasting bought a nearly 810 acre area of land just south of the interchange with intent to build a theme park on the site. Construction on the park began in November and continued through 1978, except for some reason I’ve been having no luck finding construction photos from then so that part of the park’s history is being mostly skipped. 1978 turns to 79, and opening day comes. May 11th, 1979. Taft had basically bet the farm on the park - and were basically hoping “Would it be successful?” And, perhaps because of someone wishing upon a shooting star but more likely the fact that it was basically the only game in town (“town” here being western Washington state and a good chunk of Oregon), it was. To this day, only a select few dates have even gotten close to the opening day crowd rush. It was so big that they actually had to cordon off the park from extra visitors about 4 hours in. The park the day before the massive opening crowd rush. Noted is the massive Eiffel Tower replica that dominates International Street. The first trickles of the mob rush into the new park The park, on opening, had several distinct areas in what was essentially a T layout. We will now go over all of them, starting with International Street. Overview of International Street circa 1979. Locations of note highlighted by arrows. The first thing you see as you go into the front gate is a very long strip of water in the middle and a bunch of buildings on both sides of the path. Those buildings contain restaurants, gift shops and even toilet blocks. Of all the restaurants and shops operating on International Street in 1979, only a select few still operate today. The second thing you may see is the massive Eiffel Tower recreation. Like the others in the chain it’s 314 feet tall with a 270 foot observation deck. And also like the others in the chain, it’s still operating despite the fact that WindSeeker has basically made it redundant. Some things never change (and in this instance, it’s a good thing). Ahead, the path split into two. Back in 1979 you couldn’t go straight into Action Zone and The Bat Returns - you had to go either left or right. The path didn’t go straight forward until 1985 brought The Bat. We’ll start by going right. Entrance of Evergreen Peak in 1979. Picture provided by Morrissey_Sucks, used with permission. Evergreen Peak Evergreen Peak. It’s at least tangentially themed to a small little funfair in the forest, and as a result in 1979 most of the stuff there was stuff you’d find on the fair circuit. Most of. In order of appearance, you have the Evergreen Wheel, Zephyr, Bayern Kurve (Rest in peace) and Rock, Spin and Turn (please CF just change that name already! And get rid of the Crashdown Splashdown name at Vertigo Views too), which are respectively a ferris wheel, a chairswing ride, a Schwarzkopf Bayernkurve and a Sellner Tilt-a-Whirl. But the real star of the show is the Evergreen Racer. Picture taken from On ride photo cam during a 1997 test run Picture used for promos in 1980 The Evergreen Racer is a PTC racing woodie (it’s actually a clone of KD’s Racer 75) and true to its name it…..races. Back in the 80s the consensus was Blue was the one you should bet on to win. Having hilariously lost on it a few days ago in the Blue train I’ll have to disagree. It was also the park’s headliner attraction from 1979 to 1985. Anyways, onto the Lakeshore and The Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera. Once you walk into Lakeshore you can immediately turn left and enter the Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera, which to this day is still somewhat lacking. But first, you run right into Fly Like an Eagle and the lake itself. FLaE is a Flying Scooters ride, proving that they existed pre-2015, and it’s somehow not been retired yet. (Even Kings Island eventually got tired of theirs! Or……well, their old ones anyway) It is just called “Flying Falcons” nowadays, though, circa 1992. Anyways, the Funtastic World. You have a few flat rides not worth mentioned, a big ole car ride and the main headliner of the area: Ghoster Coaster. More promo material. You can tell because the coaster’s still brown here, which dates it to before 1993. It’s a small little PTC thing that I’m not too big on but is a big draw for the kiddies. After all, you can only go so long before Cosmic Coaster gets tiring! Alright, that’s done, onto Lakeshore. Back in 1979 this area was rather barren. You didn’t have Flight Deck, you didn’t have Vortex, you didn’t have squat. You had Octopus, a now gone Schwarzkopf Polyp, a SDC Galaxi that is now long gone, and a big ol’ log flume that failed to open in 1979 due to mechanical issues. This is the Galaxi, named……well, Galaxi. It’s on the fair circuit now. And here’s the log flume, at the time called Smurf Mountain Falls. Even today it’s still the only non-Boomerang Bay water ride in the park. Evergreen Gardens as a whole. Don’t worry, the current park looks NOTHING like this! So, 1979. Massively successful opening year out of the way, first order of business in 1980 is to actually get the log flume open. It finally opened in June 1980. Weeeeeeeeeeee! Taken by my good friend’s dad Miguel Rodriguez. 1981 wasn’t much to write home about, but 1982 brought a new flat ride. The Himalaya is a Mack Himalaya, of course, and it’s located right next to the Tilt-a-Whirl with the stupid name that needs to be changed. 1983 flew by. 1984 was similarly uneventful, except for the part where Kings Entertainment came in and just bought Taft out. Nobody knows exactly why, but for some reason the brand new park president decided that for 1985 Evergreen Gardens should be home to the world’s longest roller coaster. Which is no small feat - at the time the longest was either Daidarasaurus at Expoland (7,677.2 ft) or The Beast at Kings Island (7,361.0 ft). But as they say, “when there’s a will, there’s a way” and the park president contacted Arrow Dynamics and asked them to build the world’s longest roller coaster for the 1985 season. And he specifically requested a Suspended Coaster. So Arrow did it. They built the world’s longest roller coaster. New for 1985 was THE BAT, a quite frankly comically oversized Arrow Dynamics Suspended Coaster. Arrow Dynamics decided to reuse elements from a number of coasters in their catalog (especially the massive drop into the lake just SCREAMS Big Bad Wolf), and also decided to make a good chunk of the layout a “Twister” section consisting of what was basically a ball of steel, meaning A, it swang out the wazoo, and B, it was 7,798 feet long! For context on how insane that is, even today The Bat is the second longest roller coaster ever built. It had a ride duration of over 3 minutes and was absolutely insane. It’s considered the best Arrow swinger of all time. With the possible exception of Eagle Fortress. The path was at last extended so that you could now go straight ahead after you hit the Eiffel Tower. In 1985 it led basically exclusively to the entrance of The Bat, but even then it was obvious there were going to be more rides in the area in the future. Shine on, you crazy diamond. After the Bat there was a major addition drought that lasted from 1986 to 1989. In 1989, however, Galaxi was announced to be closing for good due to low ridership (Seriously, this was a normal summer day in 1988. LOOK at that line). It was dismantled at the end of the season and sent onto the fair circuit. (I may have caught this one in a fair in Tacoma last year.) Land clearing for Project 1990, aka Vortex In the late 1980s it became apparent that although the park now had a huge racing woodie and the world’s longest roller coaster, it still did not have an inverting coaster. Project 1990 was cooked up to fix that. Initially an Intamin project, Kings Entertainment soon was introduced to a brand new sweetheart Swiss manufacturer which was just waiting for some new customers… — Sadly that’s where I have to end the post for now (my darn show’s about to come on!). Coming soon - Vortex premieres, and the 90s strike in full, flannel wearing force! With regards, MsLafayette ----------- AUTHOR'S NOTES: So, yeah! This is my brand new RCT3 project! Side note, that entrance plaza is taken from nathan8848's Kings Dominion (over on RCTGo), so credit to him for it. The Eiffel Tower is his, too. I ended up combining my Whispering Cliffs style decade by decade idea with something like Gateway Park's format + something akin to the "20 years of defunct coasters" thread on CF, except here it's "44 years of Evergreen Gardens recapped". "MsLafayette" is here the online identity of an OC of mine. Enjoy! And remember - still learning the ropes, so might be a bit rusty!

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Due to concentrating on my new park (which I have actually done the opening day file for) and not knowing how to approach its story (I.E., should it be one of those "thoosie journals" like RCT3 TGA and KP or should it be recounting the events of the seasons like Whispering Cliffs and the PLC version of TGA), Forest Frontiers has been indefinitely delayed. Evergreen Gardens, the aforementioned new park, has surged ahead and will be my first RCT3 park on here. Either today or tomorrow will likely be the first update. Vertigo Views is also on pause.

Took a bit too long to start the update. So not beginning FF today. Tomorrow or Thursday. As compensation here's a teaser. EDIT: Friday. Got my eyes set on a new thing. It'll also be a TL park, so I'll have AT LEAST that and Forest Frontiers running simultaneously.

About to start the first update on Forest Frontiers. It'll be very lengthy. Releasing either later tonight or tomorrow. Vertigo Views premieres over the weekend as the second mini park, resulting in two mini timeline parks going simultaneously.

Forest Frontiers starts Tuesday, June 6th, 2023. Initially I was going to start it today but I ran out of time to do it. Can't do it tomorrow as I'll be rushing to archive as many RCT3 parks on SGW as I can. So, Tuesday. Then updates every weekend.

You're in luck! Very soon......

Thanks! I'm working on something that may or may not be my first mini timeline park. But then I had an idea for another mini park, and now I'm undecided. Which do you want first?: Forest Frontiers, a Paramount park that has just recently been bought by Cedar Fair (I have a mostly finished RCT3 recreation of this, just need to finish Soak City and add the trees) or Vertigo Views, the biggest theme park in Utah! (Would need to be started from scratch though) Wish I could (or, if I can, knew how to) add polls to comments. Vote now! Frontiers or Views?

It's.......literally just Riddler's Revenge at SFMM, ported to Kansas. It's not an original layout of mine.

I also made a version from the last Paramount year: Paramount's Kings Wonderland (2005).dat

Six Flags Kansas City.dat

Hi, folks! Here ye shall find some of the things I've created in RCT3 in my so far in vain attempts to get a timeline park rolling, as well as other random nonsense I created in my spare time. To start off, Six Flags Kansas City. This was actually going to be my first timeline park - I even made the thread for it on TPR and made an opening update - but abandoned it because absolutely nobody was commenting or even viewing it + I had a falling out with TPR not long after. It was an adaptation of this park on Theme Park Fanon Wiki, and I was going to have it be "What if SF never sold it?". For 2007 I had planned what was basically a Vekoma Family Boomerang but with inversions in the DC Universe area called Krypton Comet. And now some photos The park's skyline. You can immediately notice several large coasters, as well as the Superman drop tower and the Paramount standard Eiffel Tower. Of note is I used nathan8488 on RCTgo's Kings Island's entrance area for SFKC, befitting its status as a former Paramount park. DC Universe. I believe the station for Krypton Comet was to have gone by Batman's little turnaround and that facade by Riddler's Revenge. This is one of the most action packed areas in the park - fitting for an area formerly known as "Action Zone". This is Kansas Streak, a CCI wooden coaster. For the future I had at least vaguely considered putting a hyper of some kind near or over it. And here's the standard Vekoma Invertigo. This was V2: Vertical Velocity, formerly FACE/OFF. And this, which was Paramount's last addition - a Gerstlauer Spinning Coaster. In the story it had suffered an accident of some form a few days before the update, hence why it isn't running in this snapshot. And here's Joker's Revenge, in that big building. This is a Giant Top Spin like The Crypt at KI and unlike Crypt I had planned this to still be around in 2022, but maybe relocated and unboxed. And the local Superman. This one was going to stay around at all costs. The gray support there is a mistake. Foreground: Topeka Twister, a Tilt a Whirl. Background: Batman: The Ride, a B&M Invert with a layout similar to but not quite the same as Afterburn at Carowinds. As with all the "Kings" parks, this had a racing woodie. This one was just "Racer". I remember vaguely considering giving this the RMC treatment in the mid 2010s. The local log flume. A lot more heavily themed than usual SF flumes. I forgot what this ended up being named. I never decided what I'd do with it but if I were doing it today I'd toss it by 2019 at latest. And finally a nighttime shot of the park. I had also planned to add fireworks for 2007 to compliment Krypton Comet. The end of the update strongly suggested the updater's home was to be destroyed in the Greensburg, KS EF5, thus allowing him to move to KC and become a more local insider in the likes of Kelly Ducharme and Robbie Fletcher. In the end, though, the lack of comments severely demotivated me, and after looking at an old post and seeing Robb Alvey tell a member to get off the board because the member disagreed with him, I had had enough of TPR. That being said, I had always intended to offer the park up for download. I don't want to do it in this post because I'm afraid if I try to drag it in it'll erase everything, so look for the download in the post below this one. Maybe I'll return to SFKC.....one day.
