I don't care if you limit the benches or not Steve Franks!. Your benches rock and I just want to try them out as soon as I can!. As many people have already said you can use a trainer to make your benches which I'm sure alot of us will enjoy!. I would love to see some more track packs from you as well, as I found them very interesting and realistic!. Keep up the updates Steve Franks!. ;)

Personally, I would enjoy the challenge of having limited benches, and as you mentioned, you could always get around that issue with a trainer.

However, you would have to insure that your featured coaster was either already built, or enough cash is on hand to do so. Your recreations do tend to be a little pricey!



Hey, quality coasters are NOT cheap! ;) Yes, I understand your point exactly. If funds were limited, I'd likely set it to around $50,000 for starting capital. More than enough to get a gound sized start. This will be playtested.

I also like the of planting lots of trees on the benches such that one would have to clear the land to plop down rides, etc. This would leave you with a "naturally" landscaped park. The main flatland bench would be barren as usual however.

My problem right now is how to responsibly fill the limited slots with the most versatile dats. Its a cruel balancing act between walls and roofs vs. landscaping goodies. One cannot tip the scales too far either way. Right now I've been begging hat in hand from the community in locating some essential dat files. I am still desperately trying to locate two roof sections:

Jon
wood plank flat to slope, c

Jon
wood plank slope to flat elevated, c

They are nowhere to be found and its author has not contacted me. I can provide sample thumbnails of the two roof pieces upon request. Until that matter is settled, putting a bow on a finished bench is pretty much delayed.

I've gone through all my old objidata files (I never knew I had so many files...), but didn't find those two files names. Maybe a look at the thumbnails will jog my memory.

I checked all the rides in the Ridex2. None of them include those objects.

I thought you're not supposed to post your e-mail on here because of the Terms Of Service? :unsure: It could be dangerous to them couldn't it?. I'm not saying that staff members can't post their email on here, I just think it would be safer doing it by PM thats all.
