Description
Welcome to a recreation of Emerald Park, Irelands only theme park and zoo!
Last year I decided to take on a personal project to work on in my spare time. I started working from a minimalist ingame view (parking lot area) and worked from there, adding bit by bit. Doubting whether or not to add more details in the end, but decided against it; enough is enough.
My builds are not meant to be as beautiful as can be, they're made to be fun to look at, or at least look like I had fun figuring out how to translate area's to the game with ingame pieces. Therefore I tried to fit in as many themed sets that come with the game and expansions as I could (so NCSO only, and OpenRCT official objects/features). In the end, there are always things that could or should have been done better/differently. Glad to finally finish a bigger game project. -

Lots of unique object use and some pretty unique ride types/designs, looks like a lot of fun. Nostalgic of an experimental era of park + small town era that I kinda miss.
This is such a pleasant recreation, really like how this translates the real life buildings, very good blend of base game and add-on objects with a lot of clever object use all around. Really good ride design, especially the supports and transfer details, I also like all the non-ride attractions. Also think the atmosphere is very nice, think it feels very lively and has a great character to it.
This was an awesome park! I love the details and many of the rides are spectacular.
Great work on this park. The stars are the coasters, which are picture perfect and stand out on the map. I also really like how you did Viking Voyage. A lot of the garden and farm details are also really fun to look at.
I agree with Therty's notes on the parking lot and road. In general I think the pathing doesn't quite feel natural and could do with some more curvature.
Regardless, this is a great build and deserves way more attention.
Finally took another look at this beautiful park. I mostly echo the statements above, great coaster lineup and execution. Also a great collection of flat rides, very varied and tight implementation too, with some fun stuff inbetween, like the swing on the mini playground.
Architecture throughout is quite nice. Im in love with the corner brick building and the quest station building. Some sweeet object use in the park too, the helmet on the viking voyage skeleton is so simple, but at the same time genius and a very fun and charming touch. That entire ride is just gorgeous.
Whats missing for me to elevate this park even further would be some more attention to detail in the back areas. A few more irregularities in the fields for example, or an arrangement of parked cars in the parking lots wouldve been great. Some peep scenes maybe, that add some movement to otherwise empty spots too.
But even still its a really fantastic park and awesome work on such a big project - well done!
Fun stuff... this is easily among your best work. From first impressions, I really like the entrance, though the orientation and placement of it is a little confusing. It has a nice muted color scheme and some really good usage of WW/TT objects that continues throughout the rest of the park.
As a more realism-focused park, I do love the ride design. Cu Chulainn had a nice layout and great supports. There was also some creativity in the ride choices; I was happy to see a Vekoma inver
The architecture, as mentioned with the entrance earlier, is really good and consistent throughout the park. My only critique would be that some of the buildings seem a little too low and could maybe be raised 2-4 units. With that said, there's good consistency with the archy without it looking repetitive. I also really like the zoo area, and the usage of a pagoda there as part of the aviary is quite clever.
Overall, this is a really nice park; the composition and readability is excellent, and there are a lot of cool details that will make me look at this park again in the future. It's almost hard to believe that this is technically NCSO.
