First for server is dead

Second for shitnuking the toiletwife while I wait for the server to be not deaf

Dead, even

>>12106646 (OP)
4th for i am tired as fuck I will be on in the morning

Server should be back up now. Give it another go, please.

>>12106735
Still down for me.

>>12106272
>recreation of Jaguar at Knott's
I hadn't thought about it before but that's a RCT-ass coaster, up in the air crossing over an area of footpaths. Also threads a classic Schwarzkopf shuttle loop.

>>12106735
Just tested, still not connecting for me

>>12106748
>>12106769
Sorry sorry. Now its up. I think the problem was the map. Changed it to Rainbow Summit for now.

>>12106775
I don't think it's the map. Just tried to connect to the game and got the same error.

I really don't think it's the map becuase it only uses things we've used in previous multiplayer maps since I used the same template as the last map

>Diane, I've been wandering around this park, alone, for over twenty minutes. I've built a simple woody and merry go round to get things started. Quite unremarkable I do say, but I have high hopes for this park. However, despite the park being publicly listed, no one else appears to have come or gone. Even the host appears to be AFK.
>The Mahayana might say, despite my solitude, that in fact, we are all playing Rollercoaster Tycoon together. It's year 5, the park is empty, we are already $1.5 million in debt, and four of the 19 guests want to go home. I have much to understand from these learned masters.
>In the meantime, I plan on building a food court, and perhaps lay down some grass so a psychotic landscaper can accompany me on this lonesome journey.

>>12106952
>Coop, I've heard that you've requested companionship in the desert themed amusement park.

I'm still getting a connection error

>>12106973
idk if this helps, but I'm selecting the server at the top of the list (which appears after you input the IP address)

>>12106991
That's what I've been doing, I'll try again in an hour or so

Host is dead. I will be hosting my own server soon. With blackjack and hookers.

>>12106991
This worked for me, weird

>>12106991
host is a retard confirmed

>>12106991
Okay well if you're going to do it this way makes sure permissions are where they need to be because I'm pretty sure any random nigga can join and fuck everything up if they see this in the server browser.

>>12107223
Usually when randoms join they build one or two coasters of questionable quality and that's that.

I need someone to test if the server is fixed.

>>12106775
Obviously that map didn't work, so I'm changing it to Mothball Mountain.

>>12107307
thats not randoms thats just me

I'm still unable to connect, did the internet/power outage somehow change your IP? I've had that happen before somehow so it might be worth checking.

>>12107742
Try this one, then. 72.31.22.98:11753

>>12107752
That one works

>>12107773
I'm done for the night since it's 4:30am but I at least built a coaster before going. Hopefully nobody else has issues connecting.

>>12107492
Sorry, I would have built some stuff to get us over that monthly loan interest but I've been suffering from an infection

>>12108350
The host giving out connection errors didn't help us

>>12108350
It's okay, we're breaking even now.

>>12108371
just keep pulling the ripcord bro

the server never even shows up in the list for me

>>12109337
new IP, check here: >>12107752

Server is down AGAIN

>>12109846
nigga are you even using the right address?

Seems like people are busy this weekend. Have fun, /vr/ :)

>>12109880
lol
gay

>>12109880
Not our fault the server is down

>>12109927
IT'S RIGHT THERE

Didn't we have this problem about a year ago? How did we fix it then?

man I wish we had a server to play on this weekend :(

>>12110285
But it's only Saturday? We still have a day left

>>12110293
Nobody can connect for more than a few minutes, so I pulled the plug.

>>12110297
I wasn't having issues earlier, but I didn't build either, sorry about that.

Genuinely incredible how stupid so many of you are, fucking hell.

>>12110324
Let me fix that, I built some benches today but most of my building was on friday.

>>12106646 (OP)
that is a cursed picture

Server is down again. Can't connect.

>>12111080
bruh

>>12110297
I could connect just fine, I was just not motivated enough to build anything plus the map is tiny. Though I did make a post here saying I couldn't connect to make people like >>12110468 butthurt.

What the fuck happened over the weekend jesus christ guys
Was the usual host not hosting? You probably should have mentioned that if you were new to hosting.

>>12111776
I think it was an IP change and not necessarily a new host

>>12111776
Host's electricity went kaboom

>>12111776
Hosting this weekend was contracted out to India.

>>12111893
>>12111808
lol yeah. I had a power outage that fucked up my equipment. IP changed, people couldn't connect, those that could connect lied and said they couldn't, so I just shut it down early. Map download is up there if you want to play on it.

>>12112019
Sorry I didn't play more, I put down that maze and the Bobsled, but I wasn't able to come up with anything Saturday so I didn't really end up hopping on for long.

>>12112414
Despite the problems, the main area was reasonably filled up. There wasn't much room left on that side of the river.

guys where server????

>>12113059
right here --> https://files.catbox.moe/i93y2e.gif

>>12106815
kek

for me it's pickle park

Should we reuse last week's poll >>12103325
for this coming week's server map?

>>12114817
We're not trying the map again with everyone if we can get the server issues sorted out? Also my vote is on Adrenaline Heights or some other slightly modified RCT1 scenario

>>12115446
I'm not the host I was just asking. I like the idea of another modified RCT1 scenario as well. Maybe something like Mothball Mountain with the other side of the highway having a full other side to work with so it has a park on both sides of the highway similar to Funtopia.

>>12115512
I'm like 90% sure I floated a similar idea with a modified Funtopia or a least Funtopia inspired scenerio the other week

Was playing singleplayer and got to Adrenaline Heights recently and I really was hoping to build one of these Arrow suspended swinging coasters with Vekoma trains on the weekend map I made but internet issues and the flu. Sad days.

>still working on my Loopy Landscapes playthrough on RCT1
>reopen Nevermore Park
>close it after 30 minutes
I've been at this shit for almost a year now, I hate this scenario specifically in RCT1.

>>12116040
I should specify, my main issue is that I'm working on a wooden wild mouse ride and I'm having trouble making it the length the game wants me to without going into extreme intensity.

>>12116058
why did you choose a coaster type famous for short, compact layouts to help you complete a scenario that needs long coasters?

>>12116079
because there are only so many coaster types and I want to get that one out of the way asap

>>12116058
First off >>12116079 second I have this image saved that might help you?

>>12116080
should have built a virginia reel instead

>>12116891
I actually did build one of those.
>>12116659
I don't think it'd be long enough but I can try. It has to be 4593ft (1,400m).

>>12116058
Okay, so I just decided to take a look at this and even a mobius version of that coaster is only 777-794m long. If you make it non-mobius it probably could work. Question: Why the wild mouse? Otherwise could throw together something quickly since the adderral kicked in

>>12117179
Like I said, it's moreso just to get the shittier coasters out of the way due to the low amount of coaster choices. Here's the list of coasters to chose from:
https://rct.fandom.com/wiki/Nevermore_Park#Roller_Coasters

>>12117210
Gonna be honest, this thing is shit to build with. I think the Gs above 2.5 and ride length severely hurt it. It's get 3.21 Gs from the tallest drop into the second hill. The only way I think you could conceivably do this is avoid any sharp turns except for pre-lift runs, use only wide bottom hills, and go to the next notch below the maximum height if using shallow-steep and steep-shallow lift sections, then giving it multiple lift hills

>>12117253
Yeah I ran into that issue a lot. If anyone ends up having a prebuild specifically for RCT1 it'd be a huge help.

>>12117254
I'll try and work on something real quick. Just doing a test to see what the limits are on this thing

>>12117265
Thanks anon

>>12117267
It says the scenario should have mouse cars available? The Mine Cars add a flat +2% Intensity. I think the Mine Carts would be better overall for throughput but I'm not sure yet. I'll run this with both and see how this works out

>>12117253
Try reducing the amount of drops. I forget how many, but after a certain amount you start getting intensity penalties for each one.

>>12117278
I can't find an exact number. Going to have to take a break to study but I'll get back to this

>>12117271
I might be able to unlock the mine carts, that's a good point

Can't you pad length with intensity-free straightaways?

I might have something this time, I'll post a screenshot of it when it's done if it's the one.

>>12117515
It's just slightly too intense with the mine carts but crashes if I use mouse cars, I need to figure out where it's crashing and try to fix that to see if it works.

>>12117515
>>12117534
I did it

>>12117550
Congrats! Now I don't have to build something later.
Don't you have other options for coasters besides this? Or are you challenging yourself?

>>12117572
I have other options, basically I wanted to get the shittiest ones out of the way first (and less expensive) so I could save the 5 steel coasters I wanted to build for last. I could also do a traditional wooden coaster now too.

The last time I saw someone struggling with a minimum ride length I made this shitpost.

>>12117598
I will say it's insanely easier in OpenRCT2, but certain rides are just not fun to make long.

>>12117609
Just have to really game the score calculation. The point of that build was that helices add length and elevation change without increasing the drop count.

>>12117610
Oh shit, that's a good call, thanks for the tip.

Going to take another break from it, but I got another coaster down after finishing the Wooden Wild Mouse. Only 4 to go and I can be rid of that park and they should be much easier than the Virgina Reel and Wooden Wild Mouse.

>>12117663
Kill them. Figuratively of course

>>12118493
When the scenario is completed I'm going to celebrate by drowning everyone

>>12117496
/vr/ct is allergic to straight level track

>>12118642
it would be so boring. imagine riding that IRL.
>"Oh wow, 2km of straight level track at 40kmh"
Said no one ever

>>12118642
>>12118646
Could have a bunch of short straights between each segment of the coaster and make an overall design that has them pass through the support structure. Or theme the big straight. Like two opposing straights that joust each other.

>>12118664
Could also headcannon that the straight is all curvy with a bunch of large-radius turns and bumps and twists that the game doesn't let you make.

What's everyone's favorite scenario from base game RCT2? I think mine is Crazy Castle.

>>12119479
None, they suck

>>12119479
I don't like most of RCT2's scenarios desu but Electric Fields is kinda comfy to me.

>>12119479
Trick question. I don't like any of them.

>>12117663
I did it, I finally completed it after about 14 months on and off.

Thinking a lot about what it would cost/take to build something like this in your back yard or a field with a chain lift. It's basically just a mini RMC raptor with low height track and wooden supports.

Idea for a non-inverting custom coaster type that can fly off the track.

I've been informed that this was subcontracted to Skyline rides and it's just a modified version of their P’Sghetti Bowl model which itself is basically their own version of the T-rex model from RMC after getting subcontracted to design steel I-box-like track for GCI.

Would this add anything to the game being basically just a slightly fancier and newer alternative to the Junior Coaster and Mini coaster as a non-inverting family coaster?

>>12128817
>Thinking a lot about what it would cost/take to build something like this in your back yard
Just fuckin' send it broh

>>12128817
Multiple things. For one, faith in your welding competence. Knowledge of how to maintain it and diligence to inspect it (this makes homemade wooden coasters especially spooky).

Bigger than that, though, is how precisely you can bend metal. Remember that B&M revolutionized roller coasters by achieving high precision fabrication and prior to that there was just tubular steel fed through a tube bending machine, measured and adjusted, with little in the way of proper transfer curves (and thus the famous jerk). Realistically you're proper gonna end up with a rougher ride than the oldest Arrow/Vekoma/Togo and it's gonna put even more stress on the structure.

>>12128849
>Would adding Skyline rides to the game change anything
Yeah, it would add rides that nobody likes and that never work.

>>12129083
Looking at the site it says they don't use welding at all on this style of coarser track

>>12128849
>Would this add anything to the game being basically just a slightly fancier and newer alternative to the Junior Coaster and Mini coaster as a non-inverting family coaster?

It's so similar to the existing openrct2 single-rail coaster that it would serve only to bloat the ride selection. I'm sure you could get the existing ride to function as a family coaster.

>>12129492
I'd love to return to this one next week. I was going to play more today and ended up being busier than I expected. I was glad I go to get 2 coasters in there at least.

>>12129497
I'd rather not. It's far too big with not enough interesting terrain to build with yet at the same time far too little terrain

>>12129504
That's fair, it's almost so big that you don't know what to do with it.

Was watching the opening sequence as one does and got some inspiration from Haunted Harbour for this element and now I don't know what to put on the rest of the coaster

>>12129519
you could just do more hills, wooden coasters can have lots of hills

>>12129527
I think the thought was the large helices would be for the outbound high speed sections while the small diameter helices would be for the slower inbound sections

>>12129532
use it as the hinge of an out-an-back coaster shaped like an L.

For me it's Pickle Park

>>12128141
well you've convinced me

For me, its not Giygas Park.

>>12128880
But then you got to know how to properly maintain it, and it's way more complex than a simple pvc tube type of roller coaster people usually build in their backyard

>>12130986
pay some mexican to do it, he'll figure it out

>>12131468
>support snaps and part of coaster collapses because of internal fatigue that you need a penetrating scan to see

>>12131613
Good thing it uses wood supports

>>12131613

>>12133293
People have been making beyond vertical drops in OpenRCT2 if that is what you're asking about, it just looks like shit.

>>12133326
Nice, I haven't played RCT3 in a while since I've been working on clearing everything in RCT1.
>>12133331
Yeah I can imagine it'd look like shit in OpenRCT2, but neat you can do it.

>>12133293
>can see the top of the lift hill wobbling relative to the building
lel

>>12133834
just eurofighter things

>>12133331
>the cars flip to the other side of the track on the beyond vertical part

>>12133331
>>12134846
I imagine you could use inverted track and get it on the right side but still facing backwards. Flying coaster?

>>12135487
I haven't tried it myself but I'm 80% sure you can't merge upright track into inverted track.

>>12131882
Thanks

>>12136436
Don't thank him

How do I get good at building vertical coasters? I always make them too intense.

>>12137519
Don't know how much this helps you but if you're talking about dive machines I built this a few weekends ago

Like any coaster just keep speeds reasonable, segments and inversions smooth and flowing, and avoid tight turns or tight transitions if you have too much speed.

>>12137519
Start off with smaller scale building and stop using the steep-to-level transitions so much. Look at what the real-life coasters look like and try to incorporate their designs into your builds.

>>12137582
To add to this because anon didn't: Dive Machines for some reason love to have 90 degree turns right after the station and/or before the holding brake, and pretty much every dive machine starts with a short vertical drop into a tunnel which anon's coarser shows both hallmarks of despite being tiny.

>>12137272

>S&S graveyard of stillborn dreams
Reminds me of all of the Arrow vanity projects before they went under

>>12139625
Are you familiar with the projects to call them that? Why should a steeplechase and a flying coaster be dreams?

>>12139862
I'm not saying they're bad designs, I'm saying that no one is buying them. I'd love to see an Axis Coaster in a park but it's been almost 10 years and we still haven't seen a single park bite, and pretty much every new project in the past while hasn't been picked up. Maybe it's the economy.

>>12139202
Cute little family coaster. I bet smaller parks would like that kind of thing.

>>12139202
I hope the steeplechase gets revived.

What's a good map for this weekend? Anyone want to do Cliffs of RMC?
