RCT3 Roller Coaster Tycoon 3-Morasha Beach and the Cyclone Racer (contest entry)

[kkb0830]

i miss this game soooooo much. i used to spend hours on end playing this

[koasterkav]

THANK YOU for making this simulation of what the Cyclone Racer was like. I was too young to ride it growing up in So. Cal. The great Harry Traver designed and built this. A guy has the original blueprints of it, but he wants a fortune for the rights.

[SeenYouCry]

so, what happened to the cyclone racer?

[babylon2257]

It lived a rather long life for old wood coasters, but in 1968, Nu Pike tore it down. There are some rather fascinating articles about this coaster

[NODISCOonkrth]

I agree with you everything is going now gone. The Pike POP it is so sad. We need history not Cookie Cutter buildings.

God bless My friend happy 4th

[AmityProductions]

i recommend to block the fake tigerlemurguy so we can avoid this kind of comments.

[tigerIemurguy]

I will stick my middle finger in front of your face!

[babylon2257]

Um...why?

[Lumapop]

That "tigerIemurguy" is a fake. See, the mame has "i" instead of "l" in it.

[babylon2257]

didnt even notice. thanks for pointing that out.

[Anozke]

He just has lots of issues. Makes me chuckle at how unintelligent he is.

[NODISCOonkrth]

Great Job This is wonderful Thank you for remembering the Long Beach Pike. Most of all the Cyclone Racer.

Great job

[babylon2257]

Thank you, I love the old wood coasters. I just wished I would have had the luxury of riding it. The classics are classics for a reason, and this was quite possibly the best racer coaster ever built, and sadly, it is lost. I just hope I did it some justice in this video. The people of Long Beach had an incredible treasure in their midst, and it's now forever a part of history.

[beast1347]

I've always preferred wodden coasters too, they look better (to me) when built right ex. like they are in the video, long but kept to small space. I also prefer riding and building (in RCT) them too

[spiraldenny]

At the Long Beach Clothing Store at the Pike, they have the last remaining Cyclone Racing Cart. I touched it :)

[babylon2257]

yeah, its not an uncommon coaster, there are vekoma boomerang's everywhere, but the only reason I mentioned it earlier was because the shark train went MIA on the Wild expansion pack, which was truly ashame in my opinion.

[CARDSfan1035]

i think we have a winner!!!!

[Luckypet4747]

Sorry, go to "Videos-36) and go lsit 2

The scroller wont show all the videos.

The video is blurry and stupid though

[Luckypet4747]

SOOOO COOOL THIS WILL WIN

And a few years ago, I made a video named

How to kill a Land Shark...and you have one of the coaster named called Land Shark.

Wanna see if your interested:D

[babylon2257]

You were the 1st to mention the Land Shark, lol. Had to use the hex editor to recover it to Wild. As for winning, I highly doubt that. This contest will go to the person with the best computer, I think-this park is far bigger than the Bumbly Beach contest. As for your vid, sure I'll watch, didn't see it in your youtube list though.

[muppetandsmurf]

what softwawre/programme did you use to get the in game videos?

[babylon2257]

Its all the "in-game" cam. Flying Camera with the "CTRL+SHIFT+0" and the stills are just "CTRL+SHIFT+F11" after naming a peep "David Walsh" to remove the interface.

[muppetandsmurf]

thanks i was wondering how to do that for some time now.(where will the still shots and in game footage be put)

[Lumapop]

Looks nice, but even nicer on high quality! Good job!

[davidindallas]

Nicely done. Coaster was great.

[kingtigertank]

Nice park and awesome coaster. And invest in a new computer.

[babylon2257]

Thanks, but sadly a new computer isn't in my budget lol

[Anozke]

If your computer can handle all that scenery and such, I think it's adequte to most needs.

[babylon2257]

It's good enough for me to wait till Windows 7 (touch windows) is released. I don't want to by a computer now with Vista, when Windows 7 was just shown off this week. Otherwise I'll be buying another computer that will be outdated in a year or so.

[alloria]

Thanks for pointing out that problem with the base-map, I have fixed it now.

[babylon2257]

You're welcome. I figured it would have been mentioned sooner, but I guess no one else had opened their parks up to notice.

[Egypt2112]

Really good for the cyclonne. 5/5

[tigerlemurguy]

very nice, mine is so different to yours!

[deathfearsnone]

that was alot of fun great park great rides

[AmityProductions]

oww...that's just stunning, you have infinite chances to win!

[crankycaz]

Very nice! This put me off entering this comp...I don't think I've had enough practice with buildings yet.

[babylon2257]

Don't say that, you should enter. Remember these contests are just for fun, don't be concerned with winning, I never am. It's not about winning, its about the parks and the vids, and hoping others like your work. So, enter. You never know, you may walk away the winner.

[crankycaz]

Yeah, true. It's not that I'm overly concerned about winning - it's more that I would want to enter something that I'd be proud of, and atm I'm a bit busy and don't have enough time to do that. When exam have finished, however. >D

Anyway, great job. The dueling woodie is a beast. I must learn how to do single dueling coasters!
