RCT Discussion / Tanks -- SWA

In RRP's Sea World Atlanta, he has a viewing section of tanks. Reptiles, Fish, etc. How do you make these? I understand how to make the 'room', by a chair lift, but I can't seem to 'color' it.

My guess is something to do with the abstract shapes, but I can't get them in the room so to speak.

Any help?

Well, before you make the room with chairlift, you need to sink a suitably coloured abstract cube down into the ground at the level you're going to build the chairlift through. That means, that when you build the 'tunnel' with the chairlift, the abstract cube becomes visible as the 'glass', as it were.

Set Base Height is your friend - just remember that 4 units in set base height = one height unit in rct.

Thanks mantis. I never knew how to use Set Base Height until now, opens up a few doors, huh?

Thanks

1=4. So that's why I was having so much trouble. I should've figured it was stupid.

Thanx mantis. NE loves you!

Just ask Posix

Is there a way to do that with RCT2?

I tried building the chairlift and that all worked fine, but the glass is a little bit glitchy.
