Wow, you sure got creativity on making coasters. Maybe you should find a RCT2 forum and enter some tournaments? I saw vids of last years entrants and those were some awesome machines.

Thanks, man. I honestly don't consider myself as talented in that field, but I might give it a go, now that you've suggested it!  :mrgreen:

Btw, Can somebody tell me, how you can change the coasters colour example the Coaster is first Green, and then it's colour changes to Red.
Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMc03J69lWM&annotation_id=annotation_469194&feature=iv
It's the first Coaster

I'll tell you.
 
On the paint menu, you'll see a drop-down box entitled "Main Colour Scheme", with the track colours underneath.
 
Click the box, and you should get a drop-down menu with other colour-scheme options.
 
Once you've got that, choose the extra colours you want, and using the paintbrush tool (Accessed by hovering over the track with the cursor, whilst the secondary colour scheme is activated), and click on the track pieces where you want your secondary colours to go.
With it, you can have up to four different colours on your track at once!

Whoa, easy there.
 
Anyway, seeing as it's Friday (And I've been at the coffee), I think I'll post some more track designs.
Our first one-

Grizzly Bear, a Wooden Coaster with Articulated seats. It has a nice station complex (Shown Below in More Detail), a fast and somewhat twisted layout, and Mine Theming. Here's another view-

 
And here's the other one for today-

Ickle Miner, a Junior Coaster with a Log Train. This one was designed to run next to Grizzly Bear, as if to help guests build up the courage to try and tame the bear.
It also works well as a standalone coaster, and thanks to its high excitement rating for its size, makes a marvellous main coaster for a smaller, more family-orientated area. For this reason (And its cool theming), it's my personal favourite Junior Coaster.

Sorry, it was just the annoyance of nobody being here except me.

It seems that as soon as I start posting, the topic practically dies.

That isnt the case, its either people not being able to think up what to say or just not being online.

Sorry, I have a bit of a tendency to think that way, when every other topic in the "Games" section is active, and topics like this sometimes just end up getting shunted aside, and often forgotten.
 
/endpessimism
Anyway, so what do you think of the two I posted earlier?  :bigsmile:

They are awesome. I can create some good rides too but I cant make scenery to fit with them so they are always plain tracks only.

Need to install game first, tough I did install RCT3 just yesterday. If you dont mind me using that instead of RCT2?
You see its been a few years since I last played this game, so I dont have it anymore or any track desings.

Also weird thing about this install: I tried to install the 2 Addons for it too, but it complained that I installed Splash! after Wild! even tough I did it in the opposite way, so I removed the game and Addons and installed only the game and I can still use the addon material.

Sure thing. As long as it's part of the RCT legacy, I'm happy!

I can never get people to go on any of the cool coasters I make. They just go to the entrance and jump away. Pretty annoying.

Anyway im still working on filling that entire game with motion simulators. I haven't played in a while but I was halfway through the lake in my last screenshot.

It's probably because your coasters have a high intensity rating or nausea rating.

That might be the case, you should check "Visitors prefer intense rides" when you start the game.
