Planet Coaster

[New display name]

It might be a giga coaster.  Add another 100ft to the start and share to the workshop.

Could also be that none of the in game hypers allow inversions so had to go with a floorless just to be able to do the layout...  And I peaked the lift hill at 61m...  As is about the currently assumed height...

Haha thanks. Fortunately I do get the long weekend, but I have plans and I also in the process of moving my website to a new provider which is taking time.

Planet Coaster is currently 25% off through humble bundle. ($33.74 USD / ~$45.70 AUD)

On Steam it's currently $44.99 USD (~$60.94 AUD)

Other locations which you may consider are coming in around $41 AUD, but they're kind of sketchy. We'll call them "grey market". So if you're after the game, I'd suggest HB being the way to go and keep things all above board.

The summer update is right behind the corner, so i am probably going to dive right into this. I haven't played much planet coaster but i think i just might get back into it.

Speaking of summer update, it looks absolutely amazing. Fireworks, billboards, Impulse. The one thing i don't think i am a huge fan of is the inverting pirate ship thing, i don't think i will be adding that to my park.

There was a mix of 

> Forgot I was doing this (told you it would happen)
> Had other games to play
> Have been busy
> Have been lazy

But I did make all of maybe 30 minutes progress on this the other day. Mainly just playing with the new custom billboards. 

 

 

This was because there's no better option. And again, I did say it was going not be 100% accurate. 

 

Also, it's taken me some time to get around to working on this park. (Also the fact I tend to leave the game running while I do other things for a while).

[Reanimated35]

Slow and steady wins the race. Really not much more to report today, but here's a little progress.

 

[Reanimated35]

This was a pain in the ass. 

[Reanimated35]

Getting there. 

Just need a front on photo of those bronze sections on the side to finish it off. Might be a while (October) before I'm back at MW unless there's another special event.

[Reanimated35]

 

Massive thank you to @JaggedJanine for the missing photo.

better photo

[Reanimated35]

excuse the crappy video, it's a slowed down hyperlapse (not sure why I did that, but here we are)

Changed it slightly to add to the realism.

ANOTHER new update to follow the recent Summer update!

Furthermore, micro transaction DLC is here, in the form of Universal Intellectual Property. You can get go carts and scenery for Back to the Future, The Munsters, and Knight Rider.

 

 

[Reanimated35]

The new DLC made this a lot easier.

[Reanimated35]

So there's still a few things that need to be added, then a lot of work to go into the lighting system in the ride, but the general ride itself is all done and most of the theming is there. 

And before anyone points it out, yes there is quite a bit of stuff that isn't right or too many stars and what not, but it's close enough to get the idea.

Are the videos just framerate buffers or did you have to slow them down to match the rides speed?

[Reanimated35]

You mean the ones playing on the ride? They're captured clips from an on ride pov I found on YouTube from when the ride opened. Each one is only a few seconds long. 

The video billboard has only just been added to the game and they're not overly optimised yet apparently so they hopefully will work on a fix soon.

Some amazing videos of late:
 

And a brilliant Portal 2 ride, bit iffy on the Heroes crossover though.
