Real Life Theme Park Designer Plays RCT: Diamond Heights [part 2]

[@JohnnySacc]

As much as I like all the super fancy tricks, glitches, and cso stuff that's done by very talented people, the simpler stuff like this is peak RCT. It's just so elegant how nice of a park can be made with only some basic tools and a keen eye for design.

[@AmusementAcademy]

While the fancy CSO stuff is still my preferred build style and my primary thing, this is very refreshing and a nice change of pace. Also means I can finish things a lot more quickly!

Once again a big fan of the landscaping. I like to transition to dirt as well, but I'm not too confident with my use of the rock landscape, watching this series has helped give me ideas!

[@AmusementAcademy]

Great to hear! The rock landscaping can be tough since it's often kind of hard to transition. A lot of times, I like to have those pieces raised compared to the surroundings which lets it look a bit like a a rocky outcropping from the rest. Bushes really help the transition also.

@@AmusementAcademyThat makes sense, thanks for the tip!

Well, the KZbin algorithm clearly knows I’m a sucker for experts of their field playing related video games. I loved the video and am excited to watch more!!

[@AmusementAcademy]

Thanks so much for stopping by! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@boogabuga7657]

love this series!

[@AmusementAcademy]

Thank you!!

[@CptBlm]

Looking forward for other parts of this series! It's becoming my daily routine to watch it while having lunch. :)

[@AmusementAcademy]

Fantastic! I've got a bunch of review videos on the way and I will hopefully record the next scenario build in the next week or two.

Love this series so far it had inspired me to build something similar in rct3 but I named it diamond hills.

[@AmusementAcademy]

That's great! Hope it goes well!

came here from reddit, very awesome! excited for the series to continue!!

[@AmusementAcademy]

Thanks for coming by! Hope to stream the next scenario in the next 2 weeks or so.

[@bucky_deer]

Can't wait to see what you do with Evergreen Gardens 😁

[@AmusementAcademy]

I'm excited for it. It's a little daunting as we're gonna have to pay attention to make sure it's not just a bunch of rides spread really far apart. But I'm looking forward to trying it out.

[@TheAlcat1]

I stumbled across your video and I'm sure glad I did! This is great content, I really love seeing your thought process when deciding how all the elements of the park will come together. Keep it up!

[@AmusementAcademy]

Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate you watching! I hope to have the next scenario recording done in the next week or two. Thanks!

[@TheDeadAwesome]

Been very fun to watch. Always pop in and out but I love watching you build and you talk. Relaxing video.

[@AmusementAcademy]

Thanks very much! I really appreciate you watching.

19:35 - Bush under the pathway is preventing the support structure. Barely noticed it.

[@baystated]

BOBSLEDS! Oh [despair!] bobsleds hate me. So many crashes. Eventually the randomized guest weight conspires against the train speeds.

[@AmusementAcademy]

Just avoid those uphills and you're all good! If anything, I try and transition up with helix pieces instead so I never really have to worry, unless it's moving very slowly like the drop and climb I had in this layout.

[@cookiecrispwizard]

I should've watched more of the stream, I could've told you to name the bobsled Swiss Bobs

[@cookiecrispwizard]

Oh, and the invert I would name Spirit

[@cookiecrispwizard]

Also I think the 6x speed would be better, watching two parts coming to an hour of video is a bit much for a beginner scenario IMO. I just honestly don't really care about seeing the specific mouse movement and seeing everything you click during a scenario, the building of it is what I really want to watch.

[@AmusementAcademy]

I can definitely go back and add those names. Part of the balance is just being too hard to follow with a number of people saying the 6x was way too fast to follow or was even making them dizzy, which I understand. At the 4x I can definitely cut out more, but some people have also said they like the full video with the thought process commentary as well. I am hoping to add video chapter tags to the videos so you could skip to the coaster builds if you wanted, which may be the best option.

[@QDude24]

I might just be me, but your audio seems a bit quiet? I have to turn up my volume a bit to hear you clearly, while other video's don't have this

[@AmusementAcademy]

Was part 1 the same? I had my mic in the same spot for both, I think. But I can pay attention to this on the next ones I record. This is helpful feedback.
