It looks okay. Never felt like I wanted this park to come out. If You do more scenery then it will look better but for now, nothing really special. Good luck on doing better

WILLDOG, dude, u sound all kinds of stupid. This park isn't in any way done, as can be clearly seen in the pix, but he seems to be going the right way.

The buildings look awesome, and if it keeps going in this direction, I see a great fantasy park!

Coasterbuzz-The only place you can say SOB or MF and not be considered a potty mouth:).

Geeze, that has to be one of the most insulting posts that I've ever seen. Sure, there isn't much there yet, but it's obvious that DNRK put a lot of effort into it. If the rest of the park is this nice, then I'm sure that it'll be a spectacular download.

It's alright to constructively criticize, but "Good luck doing better" is basically saying "you suck". WILLDOG, if this is your idea of commenting on something, then I think you need to mature a bit.

For those of you who do like my park, or are capable of commenting in a mature manner, here's a construction update.

Im sorry, I didn't mean to diss your park. It's just that I did'nt really see anything special. I like the idea of wooden supports on the steel coaster and the corkscrews look better with the scenery. The buildings do look pretty sweet. I understand that your park was not finished and it is still not, it's just that the screens are so early that I couldn't really say anything about them. Im trying to say this in a nice way:Improve your park and I'll apperciate more. I never tried to dis your park.
PS: I believe you are a better designer then me, It's just that I 've seen better from other people.

Well I think It looks very nice. However, there is a pretty big problem I see: you have a clash in themeing. See, you have this really nice coaster with what looks like German themeing, but you added some Renessance and some Roman themeing to it, so now it has become a very overwhelming area, with the coaster running through three different lands it looks like.

I would do some reasearch on the net or library a specific land your trying to theme to, bt don't over do it. BGW is a very good example of nice theming.

Of course, there is no reason why your park cant have diferent themed areas...

Does this all make sense?

I understand what you're saying John. I consciously made the decision to use different theming elements to preserve that imaginative thing called "authenticity". Because if you look closely, no village is build entirely in one style. You can't find a single village with all buildings in German, or Renaissance or Roman style. Except for a theme park perhaps. By mixing several styles I've tried to recreate the atmosphere of an actual village.

There will be more themed areas, naturally, but its not my attention to be limited by the themes that are offered by RCT2.

Ahh. It's really cute. It's a park I'd like in real life. What do the guests say?

There aren't any guests yet. I'm going to finish of the main street / Idylwild village section of the park first, then I'll open the park to the public.
