Welcome @cyberbandit74 !!! @Wabigbear I can write one up if you want 😉.

Attention dreamers of all ages, Get ready to make memories that sparkle because Disney's Magical Moments Parade will premiere on June 5. From beloved classic characters to breathtaking new floats, this all-new daytime spectacular is bursting with music, color, and heart. Watch your favorite stories come to life down Main Street with dazzling costumes, high-energy choreography, and unforgettable “magical moments” you’ll treasure forever. The memories will come alive starting June 5. Huge thanks to @C O N S T E L L A T I O N for making this milestone creation for RCT3. I am looking forward to your future creations.

Congrats on a hit! (not a flop 😅). A fun show to watch grow and develop.

Bringing a classic look and feel to this version of Universal Studios Park. Currently, progress is being made on the main entrance and supporting guest services buildings. Everything is being rebuilt from the ground up with improvements to the guest experience being the main priority. Guests will soon experience attractions themed to popular franchises and immersive environments that will transport them to other worlds. Creative teams are working day and night to provide the best experience and they are sparing no expense. I look forward to sharing more about this refreshed project.

I see what you did there

Now, all you've got to do is walk straight at the wall between platforms 9 and 10. Best do it at a bit of a run if you're nervous. -Molly Weasley

Something I will always keep. There was a version of this project where the fountain was at the Discover Hotel.

To the boss of ParkCrafters and the pyrocrafter we all know and love (maybe 😝). Happy Birthday to @wolfpaw !

Welcome to ParkCrafters!

Epnot? We need more Epcot identity crisis parks here 🤣. Welcome to ParkCrafters!

Welcome and glad to see another SGW member!

Wow this park is a lot and by a lot I mean A LOT of details in each area.

I like it! A mixture of IPs which is interesting. For some of these IPs, I am curious how sight lines are going to work with some of the main focal points being next to more "squished" areas that are supposed to isolate guests from the outside world.

Let's have a good time!

The screaming demon is a popular theme park snack.

I would say a Mickey bar for Disney for sure.

What is your favorite theme park snack? If you have multiple, that is okay! Share the snacks!

World Of Discovery, the park with an identity crisis. Yes, that is how this post will open up 😅. Lately, the park has been improving the area outside the entrance. New restrooms were constructed to help guest needs. A new path to the Discover Hotel is being constructed. Plans for the monorail to return are rumored. This will be dependent on the inside of the park and how existing and upcoming structures will affect the monorail track layout. Walking in, the view never gets old. This park mixes old and new Epcot in one park. Discover Park is still under development, but the main gift shop is open on the left side. A quick service restaurant is currently under construction in the buildings on the opposite side. Expected completion is this spring. Inside the gift shop is a variety of merchandise. Some include some t-shirts from a certain community that morphed into ParkCrafters in 2023. Throughout the day, guests can enjoy a variety of fountain shows in Discover Park. The fountain adds energy that has been missed in the real-life Epcot. This area had Epic Universe's Celestial Park as an inspiration, but this evolved into an area with its own identity. As the day turns to night, discover World Of Discovery's nighttime show Discover. Guests can enjoy the show all around World Exposition, but the best view is across the way to see the park's icon in a whole new light.

Probably my favorite CS piece from you. Looks accurate based on the Google Earth sessions.

You both are great at PC/PC2/PZ (lots of letters). Yeah, that is a huge jump, and my projects are ongoing over in the RCT3 realm.

Playing PC2 (or any recent Frontier theme park/zoo game) has been a learning curve. PC2 for me I am a huge fan of the water parks and am finding those are more forgiving. I am so used to the RCT3 building mechanics that the transfer to PC2 is a lot.

Thank you! Yeah, this a different more detailed approach for sure.

Discover Park is looking good on this Sunday afternoon.

Happy Saturday! The park-wide refreshment project is going into overdrive into 2026. Recent updates to the park include new path covers at the main entrance and the long-continued Main Street enhancements which will be further discussed in this update. The main entrance received new path covers to match those found in the path that leads from the guest spawn point. Most of the path covers have been replaced except a small section to the left after the magic band touch points. Once past Main Street Station, guests reach Town Square. The Town Square hub is complete after many iterations of planter geometries. From above it looks like a face, but that is only from birds eye views 😉. The new Town Square hub is a MAJOR improvement when compared to the versions that existed before. When the park first opened, Town Square was not a thing. The park felt pretty cramped and the Main Street was not a full Main Street, featuring a fraction of the buildings present in this version of the project. To go with the Town Square hub, the Town Square Theater is now showing Mickey And The Magician, direct from Walt Disney Studios Park in Paris (soon to be Disney's Adventure World). Curtain Call Collectibles opened with the show and is located at the exit of Mickey And The Magician. Currently being finished is Tony's Town Square Restaurant. Tony's Town Square Restaurant in terms of the game needs food and beverage stalls and minor interior details that will be at the same level as those found at Mickey And The Magician. All exterior work on the building is complete, the interior details are minor and are limited to floors, railings, curtains, and white walls (the magic of RCT3). Town Square Theater in this version of the project is also the most detailed version I have done to date. This is probably one of the best exterior piece-by-piece builds I have done in the time I have played RCT3. Near the Town Square Theater is the Main Street Water Dept. These restrooms fill what would have been a brick wall and planters to hide an empty space. This also helps protect the Main Street sightlines from the larger Tomorrowland buildings that dominate the skyline such as Space Mountain and Mission Space. Walking down Main Street guests will see the enhancements continue. Center Street is the current focus as the progress goes down the street. Cinderella Castle went to a version of the previous color scheme recently. The gold accents on the wall tops were omitted. The pink and gray colors were reapplied along with some gold accents on the main towers. The castle has been an interesting design choice in this project. When the park first began, the intentions were to use Sleeping Beauty Castle from Disneyland Resort Paris. That decision quickly evolved to Cinderella Castle with the classic color scheme which has changed throughout the years to include lighter spires, the pink walls, and multiple color schemes. This color scheme reversal comes at a time when many design decisions are being made. The Main Street enhancement project continues. Town Square only has City Hall and the Firehouse left to be made once the Town Square Theater (mostly Tony's Town Square Restaurant) is complete. The completion of Town Square will allow for the end of Main Street to continue redevelopment to lead into the hub. The central hub has always been tough to get the sizing just right, so that will take a bit of time to prevent the hub from being too large or too cramped. The Main Street overhaul project completion will then allow Imagineering to decide which land to move on to. Adventureland and Tomorrowland are being looked at first before moving on to Fantasyland which will be the largest area in the park. Ideas are coming and going but this project will keep moving forward much like the real-world parks.
