Parks Mysterious Gardens (New project) by Luuknoord

Workshop link: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=962056117

So, I've been a free man for the past week and spent some time on Planet Coaster.

After having several recreating projects (Efteling & Middle Earth) I noticed that I became less interested in the game.
And it is not the game's fault. It is primarily my own fault.

I believe I have a descent amount of fantasy and imagination of how I would like to see my park. And that's not working when you are:
1. Stuck in a certain theme (LOTR)
2. Rebuilding from a photo/street view (Efteling).

So again a new side project (but will be worked on more then on the other 2 projects.

It is called Mysterious Gardens (though I 1st called it Fantasy Gardens but that will change.)

So my 3rd (more active) park is "Mysterious Gardens". It will just be set in the basic themed area's of which we now have:

Western (Entrance and 1st part of the park)

The Wild West - Darkride
The Barn Stormer - Invincible
Classico - Venetian Caroussel
The Cart Wheel - Big Wheel
The WIndmill - Zozo
Thunder Falls - Log Flume
Main Train Station

Pirate Village
Michiel de Ruyter - Victory
Pirate's Escape - Wooden Coaster
Cave Exporer - Wendigo
Pirate Train Station

Work in Progress
Sc-fi area.

Please feel free to leave any comments and suggestions

I hope you like how I made it. Here are some screens:

You've certainly been busy! Looks very nice. I especially like the details, like the bridges and complex gable end trusses.

So, when do we get on-ride videos?

Haha, yeah, should be getting some on-rides here.
I really like what I did with the wooden Coaster.
The Cave coaster is mostly dark with one lighted area.
And the Barn stormer has some useless blocks placed to space out the 2 trains. I want to fix this as it is not needed . Just have to set the min-max waiting time.

Will see what I can do.

Currently building the Sci-fi area with a Barghest that has both a lift and launch but I'm after 2 attempts not satisfied yet.
Will also get some close-ups here for specific areas.
 
By request here some onrides [big grin]

Got a new video card (Gigabyte GTX 1050 Ti 4GB G1) so finally could make some nice video's.
I used the Nvidia tool, but I guess it was not set on a high quality mode [where is it] so will check that before new video's will arrive.

Nice park layout Luuknoord. Your detailing is amazing. Looking forward in seeing
what you come up with for the Fantasy area.
 
Improving further on my park I am now building the coaster for my Fantasy part of the park. It will have a dark theme with dragon's and knights. No name yet.

I'm quite happy with the 2 custom inversions I build in.

Landscaping is done and now it's time to work on the station and the rest of the area.

well... what to say?
this is a park i would visit, and visit again.
great rides, layout, themes.

i watched all the coasters twice trying to pick a favourite to tell you which i liked best and why...... well they are just ALL good... so... yeah.

great job and THANKS for sharing, i picked up a few tips :) :]:]:]
 
Wait till you see the onride [wacky]

Very fun, both of them! I especially liked the pre-drop on the hybrid, a slow roll that makes everything coming next totally unexpected. The only change I'd suggest would be to put some custom supports on that roll that goes over the lift hill.
 
Love the park layout. WOuld love to ride Beast of the mountain for real :pc::blue:

Thanks for the kind words!!

Yes, That's currently part of the longer term plans. For now I finished the area.

Next up will be an area about speed and racing. Which will be located on the other side of the lake next to the sci-fi area.

Here some pics where the Fairytale/Fantasy area is finished.
Some buildings in the Fantasy village have custom wall textures.

Beautiful stuff! Lots of cool details and intertwinings ;) The train track crossing the path is nicely done, too.

Thanks! Yeah, I am especially very proud of the Village square but most of all the train station. It really gives me a sort of authentic feel.
