So I've made some great progress this morning! Last night I lost a bit of motivation for the project due to the demand placed on me, especially with the competition. However, this morning has been great and I've even given some thought and planning to my very own SW8, which I hope to show to everyone in time for the competition!

I will post some pictures tonight.  :D

Made some nice progress this evening.

Just realised that I've not left enough room for The Flume so I'll have to remove part of my Rapids to make space.

So I just thought I would do this to show the vast size of the park when it's finished...

The red area is Forbidden Valley, the yellow is Katanga Canyon and Gloomy Wood.

This is the space left.

This is also for those in the competition, so you can get a rough idea of how much space you will have to use, if you need it.

The park will be available to download as soon as it's finished.

You should be able to download it via TowersTimes I believe  :) I will put your name in the competition!

TowersTimes will make the file available to download once complete.

Here it is! The Flume!

Image

Not the best piece of work I've done, but with RCT's painful limitations (no diagonal), I think I've done the best I can for now. I will iron out the small details when the time comes. I'm just glad to get The Flume out of the way so I can focus on the main area of Mutiny Bay.

As you'll notice, I had to 'dig in' to my Rapids to make space, so I'm eager to get this section finished and measured to make sure I have enough space for it!

Feedback/criticism wanted.  :)

You can really appreciate the size of the land here seeing the flume without scenery....

....me thinks SW8 will make a appearence here!

So with The Flume layout roughly placed, progress will increase.

I'm just curious though, would people like to see updates more often or less often?

It would be good to photoshop / merge all pieces together to get an idea of how it may look once completed.

It's a nice idea but I don't have the capabilities, or patience, to attempt that!  :)

Haha thanks! Sometimes I have 30 minutes to make some progress but I never do, as I'd be making such little progress every time so I don't bother. I have to load up about a million things too like google earth/maps, pictures of each area I'm working on etc. so every time I want to make progress I have to have a lot of time.  :)
