Four Peaks Manor

Four Peaks Manor was origianaly a stately residence built in Romania. Pretty soon all sorts of people... and things... started to move in. One day everybody vanished leaving no trace. The country of Romania decided to auction the land off for any use. But they warned that strange occurances have been going on around the old village. The land is sold to a wealthy entrepenuer who decides to build an amusement park incorperating the old buildings.

I don't know if i'll have this park done in time for the Oct. Premeir Parks competition, but here is my first screen, please leave some comments!

Looks pretty good! Just don't overuse that type of themeing. I know how it is because I have that themeing too and it's hard not to use it a lot because it makes buildings easier to build. Just vary them a bit. But it does look great!

It looks pretty good so far. A different theme than everything else.

Here are some new devolopments including the only two major coasters that I currently have planned. I am planning to cange the colors on the invert but its name is Vlad's Revenge (A.K.A. Count Dracula). So I see blood color fitting for the time being.

I don't remember where I got the themeing. I'll have to try and find it for you. Thanks for the remarks!

Cemetary hill looks cool. I like it.

The inverted colors looks ok, but I would suggest chaning the rail colors to like grey or black. Or something that is not as bright. The others I like though. Or you could change the support color to black or grey. Just expierement with some of the colors...

The woodie looks awesome too. I like the black and orange colors. Nice.

And the name of this park is pretty cool also.

The Inverts lift is 125ft. tall. The whole thing reaches 165ft. off of ground level at the high point though.

I'd change the ground under the cemetary to the dirty grass, just to darken the area up. Makes it look a bit more spooky.

Looks like a twister layout woodie to me. Perhaps Millennium Flyer trains? Or I think they are called something different in the game. I think the bright green trains stand out too. Maybe a darker green color. Also, any themeing to this coaster?

I like the architecture a lot, just make sure to vary it up a bit. Concerning the cemetery, those larger gravestones really don't seem to fit in. The coasters look very good, but I would theme them a little more, although you'll probably do that anyway.

Yea, I am going to start to theme the coasters soon. I just wanted to get the basic layout done before I worried about any of the themeing.

Well, here is some new small changes to the woodie. I put in some flags, millenium fliers, and a nice headchopper building at the bottom of the drop.

You've built a very nice wooden twister there, I really like the layout, at least what I can see of it. I have a feeling it'll look a lot better when you theme it.

Yah! Millenium Flyer trains!!! I love the flags at the top of the lift too. Nice job. I also like the red trains for the coaster too. Nice updates.

I have decided to theme the que line for Vlad's Revenge (the invert). I'm pretty sure that I'm going to theme it to a deserted trail going through some different areas that are sort of like ruins to Count Dracula's castle.

I like the theming of the park. Where did you find those buildings at? Was it just a custom item you used.

Ok. Thanks. I had never seen those, or didn't remember seeing them and I've bought all the expansion packs.

You can download the UCES online for free, but I checked and I don't think it is on there.

I think I'll have another update tommorow. Things have been going slow recently due to my busy scheldule. And I'vee decided that I will submit this into the PP contest. Fully finished or not. I've basically been working on the themeing for the coasters.
