Right im using rct2 but how do you want the tracl, like just the track or the park?
And also could someone post a link for a program thats lets you take videos of games, if you know what i mean.
And 1 other thing, where do we post all the advertising for this ride? (im guessing the advertise ride forum but just want to make sure)

Now this sounds interesting, Im in [:)]

You may submit a park, as long as there is no other rides are in that park.

And also could someone post a link for a program thats lets you take videos of games, if you know what i mean.

Search downloads.com for a recorder. I can't remember any program names at this time.

And 1 other thing, where do we post all the advertising for this ride? (im guessing the advertise ride forum but just want to make sure)

All advertising and tracks are to be emailed to me useing one of the emails in the first post.


Also a note to all, please do not put your name in any of the advertisment, only the coaster name and Weewee's Theme park may be used. This is to keep things anonymous when voting. You may add your name after voting is complate.

Thanks

i got nothing better to do... im in

I was wondering if I submit a video, and supply it in 2 filesizes, ie. one for low bandwidth and one for high, does that count as just one item, or two?

If the 2 videos are the same, or slightly edited to reduce fle size, then yes I can accept both low and high bandwidth videos as one item.

Also is there a file size limit? The high bandwidth video would idealy be in the region of 20 to 30 megs.

No file size limits. Quick question for ya tho, Anthon, are you hosting this file(s)? If not, I have no problems hosting it and I can set something up on my server so you can just upload it right to my server, instead of using email. It'll be quicker and easier.

No I don't have anywhere to host files that big, which is why I asked [;)]

To those who wishes to submit files over 5MB for a single file, and over 10MB total for all 3 files, post here or PM me and I can give you a link to where you can upload these files instead of using email.

Thanks!

Can we recreate a real ride and submit it to the contest?

Full re-creation of real rides will not be allowed, however you may use elements/sections from real rides. The more creative you are the higher you'll score.

That "CEO" will be me!

"Let your best day in the past be your worst day in the future."

it says 3+ trains, does that mean atleast 3 trains or does it mean there must be atleast 4 trains?

That means 3 or more trains.
