    We bring to you two brand new NE Designs. Both are wooden coasters this time around. We have Posix making yet another appearance here with the absoultely brilliant "Nagas", and then Phatage makes his LL debut with "Fire Dragon". I'd like to thank everyone who submitted a Design even if it wasn't chosen....such as slob and deanosrs, the coasters were great too. Anyways, looks like Posix is doing his best to keep the LL spirit alive, and as Phatage emerges as a dual-threat in both games, it looks like he'll be wearing that Parkmaker title veeeerrryyy soon.

    Wow, got the first download again... Both coasters look great, good to see Designs coming back strong.

    Posix's looks great, I love his work as much as Schussler's. That's a very good thing.

    Phatage's is amazing, especially when you think that he's that good (or better) at RCT2.

    Phatage, this was easily the best Asian theme I have ever seen. It was beautiful, authentic and inspiring.
    You knew before how much I love your coasters and it's the same with this woody. Absolutely astonishing job.
    Also, I have never had so much fun checking banners ;)

    Can't wait for new Phatage work.

    holy shit phatage!, you've gotta be the hottest parkmaker since Micool released 5 parks in a month, seriously....just when I thought SFoE would be the last from you, you release something else amazing in LL of all things!!...you're such a resourceful RCT player it just blows my mind....all thats left for you now is spotlight & h2h and you'll really be a legend....

    I didnt like phatage's much at all, i prefered posix. I actually prefered deanosrs' over both of these.

    The best bit about phatage' was reading all those signs, especially the one about mantis, rofl.

    Nagas was beautiful (as is expected ;)) and I appreciated the architecture here a lot - definitely a lot more than in parts of Allure Lake. You've got the layered mixture look down pat (that's what I call it anyway). Lovely rocks too. You make wonderful landscapes.

    Phatage - damn! You got me :( Twice :( Anyway, great coaster and even better idea with the big mountain acting as a backdrop to the lift hill. Best pagodas so far, and nice lanterns too. Good stuff :) Reminds me of Toon's style!

    Well done you two!

    I really enjoyed them both. Nagas was a good design, filled with awesome architecture. Fire Dragon was an incredible ride, and I personally thought the theming here was amazing (along with the landscaping).

    Nice job Phatage and Posix.

    Posix's is amazing, as always....great landscaping and atmosphere.

    Phatage.....you make me sick. 8@
    Incredible work, with a speed that makes you actually credible.

    Phatage - Really nice, great layout awsome theme, IMO better then Toons stuff in LOS, i still would need to say SA has done the best in RoB. Its great to see a themed ride from you and RCT1 and 2 is a killer combo :)

    Posix - Great layout just like with RM, just it seems to have no "perfect" angle, however the layout is solid. i loved the simple theme with the baron areas, you can make so little look great and that takes skill :)

    Im very happy to see Design's active again, i plan to chip in an entry of my own later this summer if i get the time.
  • Phatage%s's Photo
    Thanks guys for the comments, I guess it was the year of the Asian themed woodies or something. Kumba, Lhasa was definitely a huge inspiration for this, as well as SAC's older Japanese area in Clockwork dreams which from what I'm led to believe was the first LL park to use the woodie track as asian type rooves. I guess JS is to Posix as SAC is to me. Speaking of Posix...

    I really liked the layout of the coaster and area. It was a little awkward for a single design to have a large entrance and such, and it would have definitely made a hell of an entrance for LOS. The architecture was good, and I liked the placing of the flats. You get better and better at the bare look each time you do it, yet sometimes I feel that your work is emmitting a far too similar atmosphere to your previous works. Although maybe some of your own past works aren't too much to your liking now, I wouldn't mind you taking a break from the naturalistic style that you have near perfected and did something like Infinitum again. Although I love Raindrop Riviera and Kronecraft grows on me every time I look at it, I feel that to much of even the greatest things can in the end still be too much.

    I liked the layout of the coaster and its mix of hills and turns. The one thing I didn't like was the pacing. It started out going around mid 30's above every hill, then got th mid 20's, and then finished somewhere in the 30's. With wooden coasters, I feel that since their layouts are less restrictive in ways compared to steel coasters due to different restraint systems that the pacing has to be phrased. My favorite combination I've found is to have the coaster's pacing start somewhat slower yet still dazzling the riders because of the tall heights they would be at and then pick up gradually with unexpected hills/turns/maybe even a little trick track into a finale of some sort of either a couple of huge airtime hills or a great moment of laterals. The pacing on Nagas sort of felt like a run on sentence with emphasis put on wierd syllables. It still nonetheless would have been a great ride to ride in real life, for the best thing about woodies are that each one pretty much is unique in terms of pacing, and differences are a good thing. I hope that the release of our designs gives us enough motivation to finish our PT's. ;)

    Nice.

    Posix -- Another great piece of work from you, and while your stuff tends to not be my personal 'liking' in style, I enjoyed this design. Had a real nice feel to it, was really well done.

    Phatage -- Geez, like everyone else said, amazing asian architecture, as well as amazing woodie. You've quickly become one of my favorite soon to be parkmakers here.

    I'm glad the community has somewhat moved away from the whole 'build a hotel and I'm a parkmaker' era we were in for awhile. Now we're starting to see more creativity in parkmakers, expecially with more innovation rct2 players in Jkay and Phatage, as well as those still in LL (Phatage again).

    Good times.

    Posix- Your other designs worked for me, this one didn't. I think it was the atmosphere that killed it, I just seemed to dirty and depressed. I don't know why I don't like it either since Raindrop Riviera just recently "clicked" so to speak and Konecraft is growing on me. I just didn't like it I guess.

    Phatage- Dig it. I think I may like this more than what we've seen of your rct2 for the fact that this had beauty. Something I feel SFWoE doesn't have hardly at all and Unfriendly Invader, pretty? Please. This was simply wonderful. It seemed so polished and shiny. I loved the layout too, it was excellent.

    Although I must correct you (Phatage) on one thing: Clockwork Dreams did not have the first wooden coaster=asian roof things, it was Joe Hollands Asian Adventures as Coaster Ed will happily inform you.

    That's very fucnkin beautiful! :lol:
    and I like top theme designs.. :rolleyes:

    Wow. I love Phatage's Fire Dragon, especially how nothing in it seemed to be placed on random, not even the trees. The landscaping in all was really what I've been wanting and trying to do (for the most part...), detailed and well thought trough, instead of just boring rocks or grass covered with trees. I also really like the architecture, theming, coaster, detail, well, everything. But the landscaping in particular impressed me after looking at it for a while.
    Every day I'm just as surprised Phatage's parkmaker page isn't up yet, lol.

    Posix' coaster/entrance area didn't quite impress me as much. I found it pretty boring, brown and unoriginal. I can see what you were going for, I think, and I understand how it wasn't supposed to be a Design but part of a larger project, but I've seen too much of it lately, sorry.
    Technically, it was great, but personally, I didn't like it much.

    Maybe I should try sending in something, could be fun. Just need ideas :)

    phatage's reminded me of toon's area in City of Dreams. In other words, I loved it.
  • sloB%s's Photo
    Well, yeah I liked Posix's a lot. While others seem to not really understand it, it just looks perfect to me.
    From what I've seen, I think Posix makes the best entrances around, in terms of layout and such.
    The coaster wasn't too bad either :p

    Surprisingly, I liked Phatage's too. The Chinese atmosphere was the best I think I've ever seen.
    Such a hard theme too.

    Congratulations to both and thanks for the great LL designs.
    Thanks to iris as well for taking the time to post them.

    Asians Rule the World!

    Phatage for Parkmaker


    You crack me up, phatage... I liked both designs, a bit odd for both to be oriental themed. I loved comparing the nuances associated with the theme, very interesting, both fairly original in pulling it off. I think Fire Dragon was the better coaster, but Nagas definately had a better/more original name. :p
  • Liampie%s's Photo
    Looks like some asshole votes 0% for this and this is now at the bottom of the designs list. Nagas is great, what is especially impressive is that there every building consists of single wide structures. Not a single 2x2, 2x3 or whatever. And it looks so good! Whoever voted 0% should jump in front of a train.
  • ida%s's Photo

    Voted 100% to make it go up. :)

     

    I'll check the design too.
