  1. I think this pack will see a lot of Harry Potter areas start to be created. The flying theater will allow parks to have a simulator attraction. Overall, not a bad start in terms of the DLC list. I agree with some of the statements here on it being a side-step from attractions in PC1 while continuing to add and improve features seen in PC1 to this sequel. Interested to see what DLCs they have plan as it can get interesting.
  2. I like it! A pretty detailed creation that I see the Disney influence in. I cannot wait for the attractions in this area.
  3. How am I just seeing this? I am using that in my Hollywood Studios park. Cannot wait for the Great Movie Ride to be behind it with a version of the Chinese Theater. Fantasyland at WDW has been interesting. The concept art of the original refurbishment and branding as "New Fantasyland" was crazy because of how many small areas there was going to be. It then went to Beauty & The Beast, The Little Mermaid, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, and Storybook Circus.
  4. So, changing the colors in RCT3, I got used to the pink color scheme. Pictures do not do the real paint scheme justice; it needs to be seen in person. In 2020 I was in shock over how different it looked in-person versus photos. It was almost unreal. I am extremely happy to be getting the original colors back because it means someone somewhere is looking at fan feedback.
  5. The topic of this discussion is what is a wild/crazy theme you have seen or would like to see in a theme park game? Maybe even what is a wild theme park game you have seen on the market? We have seen quite a few DLCs and expansion packs in the many years the theme park gaming community has existed, so I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with. One theme park game I thought was strange to see on the market was SeaWorld Adventure Parks Tycoon and a sequel. It always made me want more theme park companies in the industry to make more games. As far as themes, I would say some of the movie specific DLC packs found in the first Planet Coaster game.
  6. This topic kind of loses me. We have not had PC2 for a year yet, but I agree the updates going to just YouTube clips and some social media posts is disappointing. On the other hand, if they are not doing anything too extensive, it probably got too much to stream often especially when things being added to PC2 were things that previously existed in the original PC. It is not dead at all, a year I would say is a time period of determining popularity while users are learning what is new at the same time.
  7. I am happy things worked out. This is a massive fair-based park that is impressive to see in this nearly 21-year-old game. Now I want fair food 😅.
  8. Here is a first look at the new area Discover Park. Still needed to be complete is landscaping, path covers, shop/restaurant details, and other guest necessities. This area features a new water feature and will have the park's fountain as the main focus while blending in the geodesic motif into the area and bring in more shade in the near future. This refurbishment is part of WOD-9 as the park reaches its 9th anniversary next month. Once complete, other areas that are having land and stories prepped will begin further development.
  9. Still a fun project to watch and help grow. I am happy to see quite a bit of variation rather than making a Disneyland Park recreation. That is tough as it is, but I see you are having fun with it. Each land you seem to be stepping away from that Disneyland recreation mindset allowing you to explain your process and decisions more. My favorite attraction currently is Big Thunder Mountain due to it being your own take with heavy influences on multiple versions. Please continue the great work my friend.
  10. Great to see another RCT3 player. Very nice of you to upload the custom content you used. If it was a tedious process, I might suggest a Custom Content Required text file to save you the trouble of linking everything.
  11. Like the wave of the Fairy Godmother's wand, Cinderella Castle is back to its original color scheme. Alluding to the real Magic Kingdom (stepping aside from the RCT3 world), it is crazy that the current paint scheme lasted only 5 years. The colors were pretty bold in the beginning up until 2021 when they had to rework the spires due to the harsh Florida sun. The original "royal blue" was turning into a shade of purple from fading, then the pink faded from its original colors. A very interesting time in Magic Kingdom's history as the original intent was a rose-pink color for the walls. Here is a long, drawn-out section discussing the interesting paint scheme. Images shown are from multiple sources as well as my own pictures from "research" trips. The original concept art for the 2020 paint scheme is shown below. The paint scheme was able to be applied while the park was closed due to the events of Covid-19, most of it was complete by the time the parks reopened. Only a few sections were done before the park closures such as spires and some walls. The image below is from March 15, 2020. Guests got a glimpse as to what was being applied to the castle. The royal blue looked incredible on the turrets, they have been repainted a few times due to the Florida sun, but nobody expected the turrets to fade super quickly as shown in later images. The resorts opened before the parks, but some would drive through the empty WDW property to get this moment in history that was the closure of many tourist destinations. From July 7, 2020. This was during CM previews which then rolled into AP previews and the reopening on July 11. Sharing some of my images, the images below are from December 2020 on Christmas Day. Because of the events, the park was empty in comparison to a pre-Covid Christmas. For the circumstances, some areas were busy. This was the first time I saw the new colors in person, and it was shocking. (Note: taken on an iPhone 12 Pro) From March 2021, this image from wdwmagic shows how some of the spires were in the process of being repainted during the addition of decorations for the 50th anniversary. Some forum discussions show more progression in the spires being repainted. I was able to visit the Magic Kingdom in June 2021. I knew they had reworked the spires, so I was excited to see it in person. They were also adding decorations for the 50th. I believe they were mostly complete, but my image below is pretty different in comparison to those taken in 2020. Fast forward to June 2025, much of the colors on the walls have faded. The spires have stayed blue since 2021 and after the 50th. No more of the weird purple stage of life they had. Again, another chapter in the Magic Kingdom history book. August 31, 2025, the following concept art was presented at Destination D23. From posts, this announcement had the loudest reaction from the crowd as it was revealed Cinderella Castle was going to a paint scheme inspired by the original look of Cinderella Castle. I am excited to see how long it takes for the original look to return. I do have hopes for the Dreamlights to return, even though that is highly unlikely. This was a sidestep from my RCT3 project to show how the real-world theme park announcements can weave their way into our park projects.
  12. To align with the recent announcement made at Destination D23, Cinderella Castle at Disneyland Park at Disneyland Resort Dubai will also be receiving a new paint scheme to match that of Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.

  14. I have loved seeing this attraction develop. BTMRR has always been a tough one to make and you nailed the layout and scale of it.
  15. Great set and the music has been stuck in my head every time you work on this in call.
  16. So I found it @WBchris Warner Bros Studio Set - Custom Scenery - ParkCrafters
