I’ve had many discussions with people about this project and the concept really has not made sense to many of them. I can’t really blame them either. Even I have a hard time explaining it. With that said though, it has been one of, and will continue to be, the best project to work on for me.
I won’t bore you all with the details here however I would recommend reading the readme file in the zip file. It will help explain the concept.
Included in this download you will find three of the nine planned maps.
Marriott’s Great America map – This park was inspired by the original chain of Marriott parks in the late 70’s early 80’s. The park still has some expansion to take place and we should see the next update to it later this summer
Resort map – This map is dedicated to one of my true passions for the game. This map (when complete) will feature 3 resorts. This release features IMO my best resort to date.
Parking Facility map – If your going to have 3 parks, you need a parking area big enough to support it. This has to be the largest parking are ever completed in RCT2. Yes I am that crazy to even think of it.
Future releases will include new maps and updates to existing maps. To help keep track of these, you can visit the official website for not only this project but also links to all my past works at RCTNW Designs
For this release, all three parks can be found in one download link. I will eventually split out the maps to separate downloads. A special thanks to brent for the hosting.
I would also like to thank the following:
Geewhzzz – Thanks for all the help in some of the little details when the hacks weren’t working for me. Specifically the sky ride towers. Those rockl!
Turtle – Thanks for the advice towards the end. Some of the suggestions that I was not able to incorporate for this release will be used on the next one. Also thanks for the kick ass Dive Coaster on the MMW map!
Kumba – Thanks for helping on some of the hacks on the MGA map. They really made a difference. I also thank you for the coaster on the MMW map. That will be fun to theme!
I hope you all enjoy the parks as much as I did building them. It’s been a blast and the next update will be even better.

Oh, and yeah, you pretty much perfected the First Gen Intamin Freefall.
(Yes, I've seen Kumba's coaster, it's crazy)
Awesome work James, I really like what you have done. I am super busy this weekend, but I will try to give you some more feedback Monday or Tuesday when I get back from Orlando.
I really liked the atmosphere of this park. Some buildings are kinda plain, but the rest of the work is very well done. I specially loved how you made the monorrails (including all the structures which interact with it heh).
Can't wait for the next release. Keep going
OLY FUCKING SHIT.
Every damn square on each damn map was as good as (if not over) Spotlight quality. I'm not gonna be one of those cheap bastards that says, "Hey, you got some talent." Right now, you are my idol.
I'd hug you, but I'm not that kind of person.
Amazing work.
Edit: Just checked out the parking and resort maps and they were both just as insane. I cant believe just how big the parking facility was that must have taken so long to do. I loved the monorail supports and the sheer scale of that hotel was simply breath taking I really cant wait for your next update.

Brent - Thanks. I was wondering if anyone would notice the skull on the Demon. I had fun with that one.
gwazi - Thanks. TJ was not part of the Santa Clara park however I like the idea of the location. If truth be told, DL's Autopia was the tru insperation for it though.
zodiac - Thanks, yes it is crazy, glad you liked it, I'm not that kind of person either!
Kumba - Thanks. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on it
sfgadv02 - Glad you liked it
RCfanB&M - Thanks. I was also very happy with the monorail supports
RCTFan - Thanks every bit of it!
Loopy - I'm happy someone actually spent the time and looked over the other two maps. They really help support the whole concept and help tie it all together
JDP - Thanks but I hope you do DL it.
r_e - Thanks. Regardless if this project gets any awards/accolades, it really is not what it is all about. This is the first project that even after 8 months of work on it, I still have the same passion for it today that I did in the begining. That is what it is all about.
Again, many thanks for the kind words.

well done man.
you're tough competition for that 11-mapper project from the dutch at rct-guide.nl.
FK+Coastermind
posix - Thanks. Was the 11 mapper rct2 or LL? I would love to see it
FX - actually it was right after I finished the CC that I started to think about this. Didn't put it into motion unitl several months later though. Thanks
Thanks everyone for the feedback.

The MGA was really nice. I liked the rapids and Corkscrew coaster a lot. I had some trouble figuring out the car ride, but liked it once I did. The huge walk-in shows were awesome, I am surprised that I have not seen that done before. The hacked rides were great, I love the freefall coaster and was happy to help you figure it out.
I can't wait to see more, great work James.
