Looks neat so far.The drop tower is still a bit odd to me but I haven't seen it in action. Invert, the Vekoma family coaster, and the Maurer look especially good. Not much to say on the giga yet. I have a bad habit of doing this too, but make sure you don't make everything white.

I got bored today and threw together a small hill side CCI, might actually upload this one.

Are the dips in the back based on the Boulder Dash section that used to have trick track?

That, and a way to create some extra air time in a short space. I could have let the run go another hill or two before the turn around but I didn't want it getting away from me and seeming too long.

So I found a way to progress with the park without getting bored of it. I'm slowly working on bits and pieces at a time, if I get tired of one task I move to another. That being said it is pretty slow because I haven't had nl2 open all that much.

I added 2 coasters, one is an nl1 import that was a favorite on mine, and is being updated to reflect that the new intamin spines are available. The other is a dive coaster in the style of oblivion with some fine tuning I think it would really work.

Is the Intamin a hyper? Also good job making Oblivion accomplish a task lol.

^ Yes, it was inspired from skyrush. It has less air time than skyrush, but the last hill sustains around -1.0 for close to 3 seconds.

Edit, with the difference in friction from NL1 to NL2 its actually -0.8

Wow that Oblivion has got a "neat" Flat Spin!

The park's two B&Ms have very contrasting colors, occasionally the two meet at this point too.

Also added a small amplitheater. There is still some work to be done to it, such as not having a floating roof.

You need to get some fences up in there!

^^ Black and white! They never clash! Talking about your tracks!

Some shots of oblivion from the jr. boomerang's lift... The park also removed the giant drop tower as there were too many issues, rumor is that they a new entrance plaza will take its place.

[Coasterkidmwm]

Do you think some smaller diameter supports closer together would look better on the family coaster?

I haven't gotten around to finishing the supports for it yet, but they are already pretty close together

[Coasterkidmwm]

That looks much better

Wow that "Jr. Boomerang" track end approaches the black B&M Diver!

Work on the new entrance plaza is slow but moving along

[Coasterkidmwm]

Should look great once you can cut more holes out of it and stuff. I like the shape of it and the pond placement.

Entrance plaza is looking good! The devil is in the detail however - ie. some effective foliage!

^ Agreed - looks like to me a clean entrance!

I decided the park needed one big coaster, and I also needed to make the park circulation better than just a straight line. To pay homage to my home park I went with a morgan hyper. So far only the layout and placement is done. I have also done a bit of work to the GCI, I'm still quite satisfied with the finale but its better than it was.

[Coasterkidmwm]

Is it based off of Wild Thing?

A little bit... I tried to incorporate something from all three of the Cedar Fair morgans, but most of it comes from Steel Force/Mamba

[Coasterkidmwm]

Yeah the big turn in the foreground reminds me of the Mexican Superman ride too

I think my computer performance might just beat out my ambitions for this project as I'm about 40% from where I want to be and getting low FPS...
Anyway the park now has two distinct areas, the lake front and what will be the forest. The forest is where the majority of flats will be with the morgan hyper looming over head. I've been thinking about turning the empty space between the dive coaster and the Jr. Vekoma into a restaurant/souvenier/queue for both coasters, but have yet to start working on that. There is also the very early stages of a tidal wave splash ride, as my sketchup skills develop more I'll put more detail into it.
