I am not able to purchase a new machine right now. I need to work with what I have. I will keep it on the list for when I can buy.

I've got a mid 2014 Retina MacBook pro with a 2.5GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB RAM (1600 MHz DDR3), and a NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB / Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB for graphics. My HD is 512GB and I've got a decent amount of room, for whatever it's worth. The framerate I get on even the simplest ...

Oh i gotcha that makes more sense. Cool, thanks. Yes, I am also hoping to do a Christmastime visit if it's open in time.

Interesting... will weather interfere with it running, especially in the winter, if there's an outdoor section? Or did I misunderstand what you meant by 'open'? Glad to hear they're far enough along that some live people have been on it. I was wrong above. I always forget just how tall Mindbender is...

LOL well, ???couldn???t be more diverse??? is clearly not true as there are literally dozens of coaster models that share fewer features with extant rides at the park, but opinion noted. I am sure it will be a fine addition, but I stand by my feeling that there are other rides that could have filled...

Obvious question is obvious but it looks like some of the walls weren't up yet during construction so I'm not making assumptions. Is the Takabisha clone ultimately going to be fully enclosed and if so will it take the largest indoor looping coaster record from Mindbender? I'm guessing yes and yes. e...

So I'm excited to have an RMC of any flavor here. But on further thought, does anyone else feel like this is sort of a weird fit in the lineup? It's not that they have anything that much like it, because nothing is that much like the raptors but... idk, it seems like a solid and modern true woodie w...

That's the Jersey DevilS. :lol: (but also really) For those who might not know, The Jersey Devil is a local legendary flying beast with a goat body and hooves dragon wings, and some kind of antelope-like head (it varies). Ed: the story dates back to the mid 1700s and the team is named after the cryp...

That's true about the I-boxes, although I can only judge from the videos as I've yet to get on one (which is a little crazy because SFNE is my home park, but it's not all that close.) Although my second address is near GAdv so I'll be first in line for this one... I've been waiting for the rumored J...

Neat! And i'd like to point out that I was not entirely incorrect about my capacity concerns given the 50% increase per train. I wonder how much this will affect how it runs. Don't get me wrong, I'm SUPER excited about this and not at all disappointed (which I find a crazy feeling to have before eve...

Yup, "RMC YES" or "YES RMC"

I've been seeing some suggestions that if "M" is the letter of the last clue we'll maybe have "RMC YES"

Probably not, since Bonus clue 2 sounds like it won't duel.

But Airtime Thrills also pointed out that it could be a cryptic way to say it won't be a clone.

Yeah, the capacity question is probably OK, but I wouldn't exactly use Joker as a paragon of good or smart planning for a park like GAdv. It works out fine, but that doesn't mean it was the best idea. Hell, even Dark Knight still has stupidly long lines for what it is sometimes because operations ar...

In that case, not saying it's a T-rex then but doesn't SFGADV seem like a big park for a raptor? GRANTED, I would have said the same about Joker, and the same about Tempesto and Tigris, so I don't even know anymore. What's the capacity like on those? I supposed a dueler would double it.

At first I thought it would be a Marvel IP, but now I'm thinking it could be Jersey Devil related? Like the myth? Idk, I've been wondering if they'd do something themed to the Jersey Devil forever. It seems certain to be a dueler/racer, but I hope not a West Coast racer clone. This is totally fantas...

Someone on Twitter posted a trademark filing by SeaWorld for the name Abyss.

It's really disappointing how long it's been since a new coaster type came out.

And I can't figure out which setting to fiddle with to fix it. LOD isn't doing it and that's about all that's obvious, but I played around with background detail and anti-aliasing and the shadows, most things... but not in a methodical manner. Does anyone have a thought at what settings to play with...

Can someone clarify if this is due at 11:59.59 PM on the 14th or 11:59:59 PM on the 15th?


I hate "midnight" deadlines.

Does a vertical loop situated entirely over water count as one water feature or two? (Enter/exit) Ed: Similar question about launch interactions but I'm guessing I won't have a problem there; by my count I've got four or five. poster-2017-07-10-09-44-22.png Loops over water counts as 1 interaction. ...

That makes sense; I wasn't really thinking of temple of peril as a mine train but I suppose it is. Thank you!

I would also like to clarify what counts as a flying inversion.


Also, if we choose a mine train, how will realism be reconciled with at least one inversion and at least one launch? I guess ditto on a Motorbike inversion....

I'm in

:: shrug :: i would still rather have had at least one new ride type, personally, especially since the major update made my game run significantly worse instead of better. The minor ones since then have fixed certain issues but overall it was a net decrease and they haven't been responsive at all ab...
