The Big Lunch Company The Big Lunch Company is nearly untouched from its original iteration. Just added the menu and "order here" sign (to cover the Chief Beef logo).

And the story continues... Wanda and Scooter rush over to Administration to inform them (him) of their startling discovery inside the freezer. ... The newly hired head of security, Chief White. Security cameras have been installed throughout the park, closely monitored at all times. White loves his job. Also added is the security check point. Any watermelons being snuck into the park will be immediately confiscated. Wanda and Scooter bravely approach the Security Department.

The wallpaper behind the condiments is indeed a billboard. It's the same image used in the Gateway Gifts behind the merchandise, only blown up. And the exterior was inspired by the original entrance to Tomorrowland at WDW and the Odyssey at Epcot.

If Wonder knows what's good for him, he won't let those two anywhere near this park. Things could get very, VERY, bad.

It very well could be....

Thanks, and me too. I'm hoping to build an actual ride or attraction before the end of 2026. 😜

The third main area of Expo 3000 is the Waterfront District, featuring the Waterfront Restaurant. The Waterfront Restaurant is Wonder World's big family-focused eatery, featuring a standard theme-park menu with reasonable prices. Nothing fancy, but affordable for families on a budget.

A fifth theme park has been green lighted for the Worlds of Wonder Resort. The Preview Center at Wonder Beach Boardwalk has been updated to show off some early renderings of the new park. https://parkcrafters.com/topic/568-wonder-beach-boardwalk/page/3/#findComment-9794

The Worlds of Wonder Resort Preview Center has been updated to add the newest park in development...Primeval World.

I love Copper Creek because it is so beautifully designed and uber-detailed without being over-the-top and out of the realm of what could actually exist in the real world. Not that those types of parks and rides aren't impressive, but personally, I prefer this type of park. Great job as usual.

The exciting parking structure IS quite impressive, actually. 👍

The new rides look good so far. I look forward to seeing the finished product with landscaping, etc. As far as the new path system in PC2... I absolutely LOVE it. I'm always surprised when I hear people say they don't like it. Believe me, the more you use it, the more you will appreciate it. I literally quit PC1 because of its horrible path system. I can do everything in PC2 that I couldn't do in PC1. What you have to do is treat the paths like any other object in the park. You can select path sections... duplicate, rotate, and move them. Raise them, lower them. Watch a couple YouTube videos on creating paths to see all that you can do.

It's always fun to see a RCT3 park re-imagined in Planet Coaster. I definitely relate to what you say about things taking so long because of discovering new techniques and re-doing areas over (and over). I'm already finding myself doing this with Wonder World, as I learn new techniques, find new workshop items, or get new scenery with the DLCs. I expect I'll be doing this a lot.

The Gateway Gifts are a pair of gift shops, each located at the exit gates. I never got to building these in PC1, so this is the first version since the RCT3 build. Flying saucers, anyone? The two shops are virtually identical, except for the color change of the display props and the color of the wallpaper.

Universal or Disney should hire you to design their rides. Of course they'd need to fork out about a billion dollars to build them. Well, you've definitely mastered PC2. I have no idea how you did some of those effects, but I eventually want to learn advanced animation, ride triggers, and how to use the sequencer. Then, if I can make rides that are 1/10 as good as yours, I'll be happy.

I like the little fish pond. The "water" looks a little too white. Could just be the lighting. Very nice, though.

Cograts to Bookworm91! 🤗

Love the building in the first screenshot. Love the double decker carousel. I guess I love everything so far.

Well, I'm no coaster nerd, but it looks like a very solid effort...nice and smooth and honestly, looks great to me. Welcome to the world of PC2. I'm curious to see if you develop the love/hate relationship a lot of us have for the game. 😉

Adorable.

I'd love to hear more about the history. And maybe a screenshot or two of the original RCT3 park if you have any. You've done a great job lighting the park. I look forward to seeing more.

The Transportation Center RCT3 version PC1 version I'm very happy with the way it turned out in PC2. This version will be much truer to the version I created in the original model. In PC1, the Transit Center interior was huge...mall sized. This version will be scaled back to the size and shape in the model. This is the PC1 version. Although impressive, it was nearly double the size of the original model, and looked nothing like it. The Auto Raceway was moved over here, so you had to enter the Transport Center to access it. The PC2 version, so far. It's much smaller, but truer to the original concept, which was based on the old Horizons building at Epcot. The RCT3 version of the fountain sculpture inside the atrium was pretty atrocious. In the abandoned Wonder World 2 project in RCT3, the fountain sculpture looked pretty good. I pretty much hated the PC1 version. I tried to give it a slight organic look in PC2 to match the new palms and foliage, new to this version. (There were planters along the edge of the atrium in the model, which finally made it to my digital version.) So there it is. I still don't love it. Maybe it needs some texture, but not possible using the art shapes. Any suggestions are appreciated. It does look nice at night, though.

Thanks. Yes, we really need some more foliage in the game. What we have now is very disappointing. Not only the lack of variety, but also the horrible LODs and the general poor look in general of most of the foliage...especially compared to PZ. Oh yes, and the gale winds that seem to be blowing on them. Just waiting for the trunks of my palm trees to snap. That is a mystery, isn't it. Although I did establish that he is not really in the park, but in a secret control room somewhere. Which may or may not explain how he continually hacks into many of the electronic systems of the park. But it's very possible that he may have an accomplice helping him.

I finally downloaded the park. It took a few play sessions to see it all, as there is just so much to see. I recommend everyone do the same. As good as these screenshots look, they don't do the park justice. There is so much to discover when strolling through the park in person. So many little details and places to discover...some very impressive interior work, and themed queues that rival and even surpass anything I've seen at the Disney parks. Beautiful park. Great job!
