Also found some music I could potentially use for it-

Looking good so far, mate. Although I have to ponder...why have B&M awesomeness in your park, and then name it after a pony-related manouver?   :approve:
 
Also, did you see my 3D Triple Thunder below?  :3

That's a pretty high excitement  :approve:

And yes, Triple Thunder is definitely a design I'm genuinely proud of- I particularly like the formation of the loops and diving turns.

Guys, I'm guessing you know the forty lap trick with Go-Carts on RCT3?
If not, try setting the number of laps on the go-cart track to 40 and witness your excitement score soar.

Because 40 laps is better than 39 by a long shot :P
I do those awful YouTube videos.

Here is the list of new rides that I will add to Electric Fields in the year 3\season three which is on the brink of happening

Captain America: The First Avenger - Rotating Tower Coaster.
Electric Flyer - Flip Fly.

Captain America: The First Avenger will be set up in between both the flagship coasters of the park, Transformers Dark of the Moon Ride and Sonic Rainboom. And Electric Flyer will be set up where Strong Winds(Paratrooper) used to be, and Strong Winds will be set up near the Merry-Go-Round near the back of the park.

DP. I went looking through RCT3 and I found 8 rides that are funfair\midway type rides, but might this be a coincidence or something else.

Here are the 8

Zipper: This only appears in funfairs the only and last one in a staying park was at Galaxyland in Edmonton, it was removed after only 1 year because of continues breakdowns
Giant Slide: Have not seen one in a static park, I have seen these in tons of funfairs though, which makes me think it is mostly a funfair ride
Gyrator: One that only appears in funfairs, and easy to tell because it has a backdrop and everything
Gravitron: Not sure if only funfair, but seen it at tons of funfairs, notable for high spinning and the parts where people stick to the walls lift to the roof.
Meteoroid: A ride that screams funfair, and an other easy to tell that it is too, it has a tarp under the part where people get on the ride, also has parts where cables keep the ride standing upright
Thunder Bobs: This one could be either ways, but the version of this ride that is included makes it look very funfair, as it has supports keeping it off the ground under the main part of the ride.
Tagada: One with a background that might be for more than funfairs but with the metal platform around it and the background, it looks funfair but who can tell.
Twirler: A tilt-a-whirl ride that can appear in any type of park and is a midway favorite.

So what do you think, coincidence or maybe something else, but I have to say maybe coincident but who knows.

Rather- you could say that some of them do look quite "Funfair". I wonder if it's possible to turn them into park models?

You can use them in parks, it really does not matter, but would be unsure as to how well some of those would do in operation every day, every year in IRL static amusement parks

*Takes out loan to bring this back from the dead*

But yes, does make you wonder how they stay working for all that time, really.

The first and only static Zipper only lasted less than a year.

Yes, I'd heard. Looked awfully complicated to me, so no wonder, really.

It was in Galaxyland(Second Biggest indoor park) in West Edmonton Mall, Canada. The reason for its removal was because it needed maintenance a lot.

But anyways the second preview for my Kirmes/Funfair Coaster pack will be up tomorrow, it is for Turbulence(Looping Coaster) and actually my favourite of the pack second is one of the mystery rides.

Right. Had a feeling it would've had something to do with reliability issues and whatnot.
 
And a looping coaster, you say? Schwarzkopf or Pinfari?  :P

It was Schwarzkopf. Preview might come soon.

But back to that one park I was making...

New Rides Coming for Season 6/Year 6
-Windseeker
-Thrust(Strata Coaster)

And: Now I am making a storyline with this park too, the story in it is that there will be a company that will own this park(Electric Fields) and the newest park Diamond Heights(Remake of the RCT1 Scenario)

Just went on Coasterfuel for the first time in several months to discover the most amateurish track ratings I've ever seen. Even my 4.67 rating couldn't bring it down.


@GRW;
How's the scenery? Could use some pics.
