To break the ice a litte bit until my version of GTMland is ready, I'll post a little something to brighten the mood on the thread. Behold-

Dynamite Express, a Steel Coaster. Primarily family-orientated, this one came about when I was experimenting with using banked turns for the drops (Something you can't do with Junior Coasters). I also decided to try and create tunnels using diagonal pieces, and I must say, the results are quite asthetically pleasing, even if I say so myself. Comments?

Looks good. That would actually look very cool coming out the side of a mountain.

Cool, especially for a ride without custom scenery.

Thanks guys! I generally like to try and build good-looking things with the resources the developers give me  ;D

I like to imagine them as those kinds you get in car parks, with the holes in the pavement cut to accomodate the saplings. Simular principle here, except with Cacti.

Or plastic ones.

I think, seeing as I've broken up for Christmas, now is a good time to showcase a coaster. Thus, I shall. With the speed of a Formula 1 car but with the thrills of NASCAR, here is-

TEST TRACK, a compact steel looping coaster. This one was an attempt to create a ride with a theme besides the original ones, using only the components that came with the game. It's primarily themed around racing, with a pitstop-themed entrance, sleek blue and purple trains, and a focus on speed and twisting transistions.
 

Here it is again, this time from another angle. Just in case you're wondering, that tall structure coming out of the entrance represents the track's control tower. There's also a small tunnel underneath the curve which threads through the loop, which leads to the brake run.

Thanks! Although from what I know, RCT2 discs can be quite cheaply picked up in most game shops- One of the cheapest I saw in one of my local ones was about £5. There's many new copies available dirt cheap on places like Amazon, too.

IIRC, there's a button on the drop-down list where the Save options are, that says Screenshot. Click it, and it will take a picture of your screen. Once you've done that, go into the game's files, and there should be a picture file, containing the picture you took. Open it in paint (Or something simular), and then save it into your picture file as a JPEG.
 
And J24: The print screen key doesn't work in the first two RCT games- they'll always come out either blank, or with the colours garbled. That's why there's a screenshot button in-game.
