Make sure to release it at 9:26, since it's 2015!

why 9:26?

IDK if I will wanna be that precise. I will probably forget, and it won't be 9:26 for everybody.

I think I'll ditch the study hall/quiz simulator ideas in favor of this lovely amphitheater. I didn't think either of those would make much sense in a park setting. Geniuses sometimes come in and do a presentation speech about some interesting and explainable math concepts, kinda like Numberphile. Topics include but are not limited to: googol and googolplex, Graham??????s number, Rubik??????s cube combinations, and enigma machines

Kinda trying to use Phyter's Flight of Fear recreation as a supporting guide. It would be cool to use the pond in the middle of the ride for something like this: http://forums.macrumors.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=261276&d=1290397210

Removed the LIM launch coaster (for the time being at least) cuz it was creating a lot of lag somehow and removing it seemed to help quite a bit. Now I'm thinking a fountain might look good there but IDK how to make one.

Looks nice. Wish I could help you with the fountain, but scripting is not my thing.

I hope the incessant project hopping isn't driving anyone crazy. This right here is my version of what a makeover of Twisted Twins at Kentucky Kingdom might look like, something I'd been working on yesterday as well and showed in the "what are you doing right now in NL2' thread. Like Twisted Colossus, it is combined into 1 coaster and intended to self-duel. I was thinking of the name 'Titan Twins' since it would be the longest coaster KK ever had if it was real. It is also fully a steel coaster.

The splash seems to be sticking to the vehicle.

TWISTY! Also felt like adding a little more color to the park.

Mile High Falls, sorta.


Even tho it's a small park I don't think I have the patience to make the entirety.

I love the RMC. Looks beautiful, and layout and shaping looks good too. One thing, the splash section looks too short.

Those colors are obnoxious, but anything is better than the standard red/orange
What are these for?

Any suggestions or is this purely subjective? I'm not too picky as long as it looks different from every other RMC.
Also, I might have found a way to do a makeshift fountain:

Invisible coaster splashdown.
And I have not forgotten about this:

^Mongoose. One of the few instances when I'm working on a coaster and I still haven't memorized the layout yet.

It would be a stupid idea to put this off for too much longer.
I decided against making the bakery out of supports.
screenshot-2015-03-04-19-17-50.png
Hmmm, wonder which one I want...

screenshot-2015-03-04-19-11-50.png
Good thing the bathrooms are just right there since you'll probably need to go change pants after that giga coaster ride.

screenshot-2015-03-04-19-16-14.png
Yup, the pie version of turducken.


screenshot-2015-03-04-19-13-31.png
Linear Launch, a generic shuttle loop. Yeah, maybe I should move that fountain.


I wonder if the park patrons should be allowed to wear their bathing suits elsewhere besides the Sine Wave Pool.

Lol, cherpumple die would be quite fitting cuz it's so fattening that you probably would die if you ate enough. But it's supposed to be cherpumple pie. I suck at writing on a sandwich board slate.

Bell Curve, a shuttle coaster with an airtime hill instead of a vertical loop.

Some landscaping and horticulture done. Also, hello Natural Log Flume.

I don't wanna add much more since it's starting to lag uncomfortably, at least on higher settings.
