Paramount Carowinds 2005 For RCT3

Yes i am back and have some time on my hands anyways i have decided thats its time for me to make a Paramount Carowinds recreation for RCT3. Now everybody remembers my RCT2 rec it had some problems like T-Road was way to short. some of the rides were placed inaccurately and all that stuff. Also the biggest problem was probably it was spread out too much. Well i am here to say that this next one will not be i am going all in with this park. I didnt care to much in my RCT2 one but it wasnt what i wanted just because i didnt care for it that much anymore. Anyways on to the screens right now i am making the Roller Coasters i want to get that out of the way. I AM NOT PUTTING SCENERY IN UNTIL AFTER ALL THE RIDES ARE IN PLACE


Carolina Cyclone

Borg Assimilator-Minor Problem with Turn Entering the Loop

Thunder Road

A question about Hurler...at the end of the turnaround after the lift hill, why is there a hill going up right before the drop?

On Scooby Doo's Ghoster Coaster, It looks like the track after the station is underground or in the grass. It just looked odd.

Ok. http://www.coasterforce.com/usa/pcw/hurler.php I understand where your going. But its not so much as a hump. Its just a really small incline. Look at the 2nd picture. In it you see that the track goes down a little bit on the bend. Half way through is the lowest point. Then it goes up a just a tad. Its not much. So yea I do see how it can be a hill. But its just a small incline.

On Borg, it is way too spread out...The part after the horseshoe turnaround is way too far away from the lift. I'd try to move that in a bit to make it more realistic.

Wow, this is a major project. Good luck on it!

The Wild Thornberrys River Adventure has a couple more turns before the first mini drop and a couple more after it.

Borg is a little spread out. But if nothing else can be done, it doesn't look too bad.

On Hurler's turn going out of the station, make it flat and not banked.

Well, other than the Rip Roarin' Rapids layout, it looks really cool down to where the buildings are located. Looks great!

_______

What is that curved thing around the base of the Skytower?

Another Update with the beginning stages of Carolina RFD and all that stuff. I am not excited about where i placed Vortex it has to be closer to the Skytower. I will see what i can do also in the background you can see some scenery around Rip Roarin Rapids and i am not happy with the scenery availiable so you get what you get. Hope you enjoy expect probably the next update at about 9 or 10 tonight with nearly all of the RFD completed and maybe either the Boardwalk or Thrill Zone beginning construction we will just have to see.

Here is another update with near ending RFD and beginning of Thrill Zone and some of Boardwalk. I believe i am going to have some troubles with Enterprise and Drop Zone as the Entrance and Exit pieces are not going to the ride so these rides may not run when i put the peeps in the park. Also in the pics you see Carowinds at Night looks pretty cool i am not done putting the lights or any of that so will see how it comes out towards the end.

RFD


Thrill Zone

Wow, the night mode looks stunning! Nice job.

Why is Screem Weaver up off the ground?

The Paramoun Theatre looks really good, but make a park that goes really high like for on the roof. Just like a rectange where everything is brought up over the stage.

Looks cool. Maybe add some fences.

The lighthouse looks cool and so does the virtual thing.

Isn't Ricochet supposed to go to be where that little pond is behind the lighthouse?

No its where its supposed to be well not really since you cant make the ride diagonal.

Here is another update with a near complete Thrill Zone and Halfway done Boardwalk.
I am having a problem with my RCT3 and this may mean that 3 or maybe more of the rides will not be able to run with the peeps. That means that Drop Zone, Scream Weaver and possibly Flying Super Saturator will not run. I will give more details unless i am able to find out something.
