READ IT ALL IF YOU CAN (I know, its long)

Arctic Zero Proprietorship has now become Moiunda Engineering; partly because Arctic Zero is already a company (Google'd it).

Now let me get started about Iridium Tower... The name comes from the composite it's made out of (a mixture of Iridium and plain ol' steel). It was also named after one of my characters named "Iridium." Perhaps I'll create her on SketchUp and import her sometime soon.

The height? If you want to get exact, it's 3123ft tall, tallest structure I've made (and probably the tallest I'll ever do, because you can't get the camera to go above 3200ft). Let's put this into perspective, the Burj Khalifa (which is where I got the inspiration for the design) is about 2717ft with 160 habitable floors, and will hold about 35,000 people. Iridium Tower, being 3123ft, AND having many more habitable floors (I'll say about 200, because there is not a lot of service floors), will hold about 45,000 residents/workers (yes, my tower is mixed use just like the Burj). With such a large number of people, there will be a demand for large amounts of power, so there is a nuclear reactor about 300ft below the 1st floor, capable of producing almost 1 gigawatt (GW) per hour, more than enough for everyone in the building, so the excess electricity is used in electrolysis to produce hydrogen for energy storage, with the full hydrogen cylinders allowing the tower to generate more revenue from foreign buyers (anyone that doesn't live in the tower).

Speaking of nuclear energy, youll see the backside of the tower close to the end. The water intake will be at 5:52. It takes in water to cool the nuclear reactor. It doesnt take too much thinking to know that BAD things will happen if the reactor overheats (Chernobyl anyone?). The reason I put turbines there is so the water will be pushed to the reactor with pressure.

At 6:00, youll see the water deoxidizer. As the name implies, it seizes the extra oxygen atoms for itself, leaving none for wildlife to live on. Thatll help make sure that some stuff wont get clogged in the turbines. Also, the oxygen that it extracts is pumped to a pressurizer, creating liquid oxygen. Now Im not sure what to do with the liquid oxygen, so I guess its alright to sell to the foreigners.

Are you done listening to my made up science and machinery? I hope it sounds real, but I cant guarantee anything.

Yes, there are 2 levels in the building (3 if you count the tiny basement), which seems diminutive compared to Aurora Towers 4 levels. However, I was running out of patience, so I capped the second floor and called it good.

The ride with the first POV is Morca, an inverted coaster with dragon cars. Morca is the guardian of the nuclear service shaft that leads down to the reactor. Its his oath to make sure none but one EVER gets access to the shaft, much like a dog protecting a house. Can you guess who gets access? *Cough* The tower was named after her *Cough*.

Second POV is Seto, a wooden coaster. I have no explanation on this ride, except that it sits on top of a girder system that makes the coaster look almost 100ft higher than it really is.

Third POV is Brother Moiunda, a reverse freefall coaster, paired up with Sister Anom, also a freefall coaster.

Last POV is Bottom Line, a vertical coaster. Now this thing was tough to make. Youll see that the in-game supports were replaced with girders and slate blocks and all that. Because it was in a conspicuous zone, I added those supports so it wouldnt look THAT bad (Morca was in the basement, so that doesnt count).

Now speaking of slates and girders, ABSOLUTELY NO CUSTOM SCENERY WAS USED, AND NO SOAKED OR WILD ELEMENTS WERE USED EITHER, ITS ALL VANILLA.

Now that I got that off my chest, Im offering it up for download. Keep in mind though, when you load this park, dont dare look upwards with your settings to max, your computer might explode with fanatical intensity. Well I dont know, but your framerates will drop well below 2 (maybe 0.75). Anywho, if youre feeling daring, download from the RCT3 page on my website:

Now about the music Every song you hear in this was made by me with Fruity Loops Studios, with the Nexus plugin. Gosh I love Nexus! You may download them all, but please, if you use them for something, give me credit. First song is Capital Winter, second song is Straits of Izan, third song is Arctica Transfiguration (a remix of Mother Arctica), and the last song is my newest one, called Arctic Night. Go to the audio page on my website:

Keep in mind; Im still working on my website, so give me a holler in the forum on the home page so I can correct something.

See you there!

  • OMGWTFBBQ HOW LONG DID IT TAKE TO BUILD IT?!!

    (used any cheats like no height limit?)

  • @wingbull2009: The no height limit cheat doesn't work for scenery, so I had to do "magical" things to get it that high. I did use that cheat for the rides on the second level though.

  • oh my god

  • @blubrickstudios: Oh my!

  • oh em gee. that is amazing. it looks beautiful. you did an amazing job. wow. I am definitely subscribing.

  • @unanimose: Thank you for your patronage!

see all
