We have now seen more construction with some of Florida Adventure's Resort Hotels. As of now there are plans to be 3/4 Resort Hotels on Property. Of which include Everglades Resort Hotel, Saratoga Resort Hotel, and the Hilton (which is subject to change) and a few other ideas for another hotel have been spread around. Each Resort is to be themed individually yet have a Florida Adventure feel to it.

While staying on property you get transportation to and from the park as well as transportation to and from the Everglades and Saratoga Resorts via a waterway. More to come.

We would also like to give a huge thank you to coasterman589 for allowing us to use his environment.

As for whats going on inside the park... The Florida Adventure team is still discussing several theme ideas for some coasters as well as some revisits to older layouts and seeing what we can do to make them more unique. We are also supporting several coasters. Stay tuned for more details concerning the park!








For now,

Florida Adventure Theme Park and Resort

The more this project goes on, the more excited I am to be a part of it!

I thought that was a photo at first.

This hotel is indeed an attractive place to stay as well as the park nearby is! Getaway to Florida Adventure Theme Park! Hospitality or Thrill? Take your pick!

There is no set release date yet... We are going to release the park to the public when it is finished. We are hoping end of the year or beginning of next year... So there is still much time and much to do with the park.




Please be on the lookout there will be another update soon!

how immersive are these hotels? not that my pc can handle something like this anyway(Plantoris Park is the biggest park it can handle), but I'm interested in the models.

Wow, those hotels look great!

They actual perform very well. They have been optimized and several textures have been replaced. In the park I get right around 20-30 fps even with all of the scenery. Once the park is near completion and all of the 3d models are in place then we will go back and optimize the park as best as we can.




Thanks Dirk!




Hoping there will be another update tonight! So stick around!

I meant are those hotels explore-able? Obviously you wouldn't want every room available to walk through, but a few in the right places could be very neat.

I want to have the hotels able to put a playground in one of the biggest rooms.

[Blase Rhine]

ohhh silly me. Sadly no they are not explorable due to performance reasons. However we are working on other buildings that are very much explorable such as restaurants, gift shops, etc. Our goal is to make this as much as a real park as we can so there definitely will be open buildings for the user to explore.


Speaking of making this as real of a park as we can, we are including even the tiniest details in the scenery such as trash cans, handicap parking, cars, fences, paths, water fountains, and much more!

As for the park we are still discussing some area changes and more theme ideas.










P.S. The shuttle boats were heavily based off of the shuttle boats at Epcot at Walt Disney World.



Until next time!

Wow I need a new computer . Really hope the coasters will live up to the scenery!

[Blase Rhine]

The park isn't too bad on performance so far. I get around 20-30 FPS which is pretty good considering this park is massive and has tons of scenery! As for the coasters we are doing our best so that they will!

I'm gonna be running this at like 5 fps hahahaha. But it still looks great guys. The 3D work is nothing short of impressive.

[TTD03]

It runs at about 15 FPS on this poor graphics computer.
High performance computers won't have an issue.

[Dirk_Ermen]

Wow, every update this starts to look so much better.

I love the modern look of this.

Great work guys! It gets better and better with every update. Just one little thing: that path texture doesn't look good. I think you should use a different one.
