Hey everyone. Long time no see. I haven't been able to build with K'Nex in about a year, so I haven't had much reason to be active here. But I do occasionally get the opportunity to play RCT2, and I have a new park I've been working on for awhile now. It's still not done yet, but I figured I'd go ahead and show you what I have so far: (This will take two posts, since I can't upload all the screenshots at one time).

The park entrance building.

One of three stations for a raft ride that goes along the "river" that runs around part of the park.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7922[/ATTACH]
On the other side, a miniature golf course and carousel, two of the few non-Water rides here.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7923[/ATTACH]
A couple of water slides. What I tried here was to make them look as realistic as possible insofar as having the starting platform and the ending pool where each respective station is while also being slides peeps could actually ride.

Basically, this image just shows the "code" for finding various locations; a red roof indicates a place for food and drinks, a white "box" with red crosses around it indicates a first-aid room, and a large house situated over water indicates one of the raft stations.

On the other side of the park, a slide that's partially indoors with a jet ski pool nearby.

A rapids ride. Not much else to say.

One thing that comes with the expansion packs is a load of tracks with oddball designs on the cars. Such is the "Surfing" coaster. I tried to go for an exhilarating, fast ride here.

Thanks to Couger's water tile, you can put that tile on the same level as the track and it will look like that track is underwater.

More pics and descriptions in the next post.

Another Roller Coaster/Water Ride hybrid notion based off one of the cars that you can use in WW/TT, in this case, the Great White Shark coaster.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7930[/ATTACH]
Showing the "water" sections of the ride. Brakes help get the trains' speed down to more realistic "water" speeds.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7931[/ATTACH]
A set of 3 smallish water slides towards the back of the park.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7932[/ATTACH]
A bigger, mountain terrain-based water slide.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7933[/ATTACH]
This Invert isn't a water ride, but I needed something that could fill in that space. Plus, the peeps love it.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7934[/ATTACH]
An overview of the park so far. Still not done; I need something to fill in that huge space in the center there.

Feel free to comment.

Welcome back Weasel! Hope you stick around even if you aren't building.

[The KNex Weasel]

Thanks BGT! Great to see you're still around too. XD

Here's some more pics:
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7935[/ATTACH]
A massive water ride with a huge drop. This was fun to build and theme.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7936[/ATTACH]
Another non-Water ride; this time a Go-Kart track.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7937[/ATTACH]
And a small Submarine ride near the Surfing coaster. It boosted the latter's excitement up from 7.5 to 7.7, so it's done a pretty good job so far.

Comments? Suggestions?

DP but an update:
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7938[/ATTACH]
Found some rides to fill in that opening. Here's a Vintage Cars ride.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7939[/ATTACH]
And a log flume (you can't have a good water ride-based park without one of these!)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]7940[/ATTACH]
And an overview so far.

I might add a couple more things, like extra scenery or maybe another roller coaster in that mountain area. Otherwise, I think the park is done. Comments? Suggestions?

Hmm. Attachments don't seem to be working for me (that's been a recurring problem. Not sure if it's just me though) but from what I can see the scenery looks pretty interesting. Can't quite see enough detail in the overview though
