Posted June 6, 20231 yr I wanted to share one of my detailed parks. This was a lot of work, but a lot of fun to do! The first Wild scenario is terribly set up to start. Far too many enclosures that are far too big... and way more than is needed. After scrubbing out pretty much everything to start from scratch, I completely redesigned the park. I started where you should begin... at the entrance. Being the Disney nut that I am, I placed attraction posters at the entry all along the wall, right across from the Information Booth and Sun Screen stall. At the end of the entry walkway is a large capacity restroom. I try to avoid using "port-a-potties" wherever possible since that's not what you find in theme parks. (it's a functioning set of Restrooms using Beglabor's Invisible Doodads) Across from the restrooms is the pool's main entrance, Inflatable stall, Swimsuit stall, and more Sun Screen stalls. Along the entry walkway is the Leopard enclosure. They're not as good as Lions for pumping out cash, but they'll do. (especially since this scenario doesn't let you have lions) The Zebra enclosure is shoved off in the corner, sloping up the hill. Note that all animal enclosures have solid walls, so Peeps don't get a free show. :^) Around the corner is Western Corner... a little area devoted to the Old West. Next along the path is Snack Corner... a place to get drinks, ice cream, and food. For those wanting a sit-down meal, at the end of Snack Corner is the Nature's Wonderland Restaurant, right next to the main First Aid/AED building. Plenty of seating, good atmosphere, nearby restrooms, and live entertainment. The other side of the building houses more amenities... lockers, ATM, and counter-service Sun Screen sales. More in the next post. The idea is to keep an open mind... just not so open that your brains fall out. - Harry Anderson
June 6, 20231 yr Author Next along the back walk is the rear entrance to the pool complex. At the end of the back walk is Science Corner, a Planitarium show hosted by Ludwig von Drake. Around the corner are the jumping fountains, another Sun Screen stall, and the Disney Balloon vendor. The first major attraction I put in was my attempt at a recreation of Gadget's Go Coaster from Toontown in Disneyland Anaheim. Obviously, I can't reproduce it exactly since I have ZERO 3d modeling skill and am thus limited to what other people have made, but it's not bad. At the 4th corner we have Snack Row... leading up to Chip and Dale's Picnic Area. (again, another place to sit down to eat, complete with live entertainment) More to follow! The idea is to keep an open mind... just not so open that your brains fall out. - Harry Anderson
June 6, 20231 yr Author Adjacent to the picnic area is the entrance to the park's 2nd major coaster, Tale Spin. ...with multiple signs and animated Ride Events. (note the platform under the feet of the loading area) Ride overview. Near the entrance... Dive toward a splash... ...and again... ...before coming in for a landing. Going back to the back walkway, we passed an attraction... the Tour Boats. Low bridge! More? Okay! The idea is to keep an open mind... just not so open that your brains fall out. - Harry Anderson
June 6, 20231 yr Author What was the bridge you ask? Why that was the old trestle for the Nature's Wonderland Railroad! After departing the station in Western Corner, we cross the bridge into Nature's Wonderland... I know this isn't the Jungle Cruise, but you still get to see the world famous... Backside of Water! Then you get to go over it. It doesn't have the Paint Pots or Rainbow Caverns, but it DOES have a geyser. (hard time grabbing the particle effects) Then through a dangerous narrow canyon... ...and out towards the old trestle again. Making our way back to the station around the Wild West Show. Speaking of which, access to the show goes under the tracks, so a sign was needed to let Peeps know where it was. The next post will cover the rest of the park, including the pool. The idea is to keep an open mind... just not so open that your brains fall out. - Harry Anderson
June 6, 20231 yr Author Since we're in that area, let's take a look at the pool... starting with this girl's favorite place at a pool... the shaded Hot Tub Terrace! The main attraction of the pool complex though is The Pretzel... a tube ride. (note the supply of tubes behind the ride entrance) Underneath The Pretzel is a small Kiddie Pool with sprayers, floating lounge chairs, and no diving! The Pretzel has its own splashdown wave pool, so as to not disturb swimmers. Of course, what good is a water slide without pumps? That means a maintenance room. That brings us to our last attraction at the opposite corner of the park... Launchpad McQuack's Flight School! Here budding pilots can learn how to fly just like Launchpad... er... well, maybe a bit better. That brings us to the end. Here are some other overviews of the park. I hope you enjoyed the park! I certainly did making it! I know it doesn't have a lot of attractions, but I think the ones it has are pretty detailed. Comments welcome.

June 6, 20231 yr Oh wow, this really brings me back to the early days of RCT3 when I first started playing only doing the campaigns - except yours look a billion times better than mine, haha. I feel like I haven't seen a pool in a park in ages, it's a welcome sight! there's this illusion of the reality, but it's not really really real, like it's beside and inside and inside and beside, but never on top.. nevermind, just kidding but not really
June 6, 20231 yr Author I mostly play in the Scenarios because I like having set challenges, having to meet a payroll, needing to hire good employees, etc... but I play them MY way! ::giggle:: I very nearly always have a pool in my parks, even if it's a small one. Usually though they're set off on a side like a separate water park almost like a second gate... but this scenario it really just seemed to fit in the middle. Thanks for the kudos! It was a labor of love! (as you can probably tell by the game year in the top bar!) It took 20 years just to research all my downloaded CS. The rides are also hand modded by me to give them more realistic EIN and costs. (I'll get around to writing up a tutorial on how to do that one of these days) The idea is to keep an open mind... just not so open that your brains fall out. - Harry Anderson
