Rockin Space Mtn by Ryguy222! New layout!

[ryguy222]

Ok, just to clear things up, im not just starting this now to compete with other ppl on here that have a rockin mountain. New layout means im not recycling this time, im making the whole thing from scratch. My last layout has star walls, and if you've been on RSM you'll know it has no stars at all. I started making the station a while back, and i just got back from DLR and i've been on it, so i know when the music comes in, when lasers and such come in, so i can start adding effects. I only have the first lift done, and parts of the station. Here is what i got so far....

Well first a logo for the heck of it
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/RockinPoster.png

Yep rockin' fall 2007, so i will release this before christmas, around October, november.


And im using the same method for the entrance into the ride that i used last time, but the black wall part is a pop-out so the walls won't over lap and make all the glitchy crap (like when you put a wall in front of another)
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0053-1.jpg

Since i've got the options .txt cheats working again, i can over lap track. So one set of cars is on block sectioned and the other isn't. So you stop in the begining normally where the person does a belt check.

In the ride, right when they dispatch you into the first lift, red and blue lights flash like crazy on the facade,

Blue

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0055.jpg
and then red

This time as well, you will not be the first car into the mountain, the car ahead is, and you see the blue red strobe effect twice, just like in the real ride.

here is a close up of the main control booth. Now i know that there really aren't two big red x's but i want it to be like that, they way they have it is the normal way, but i can't get walls into the positions that they have in the real ride, so i made to Big Red x's, i wasn't planning for them to look like that but it just does.

And i still have more pix, so were going to the next post below VV

[ryguy222]

And we're back
Also another postive thing to building from scratch is i didn't sink the station 20 feet underground. So its way easier to get good pictures from the inside.
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0062.jpg
You can kinda see the car from there but not really

Then the first lift, in this lift, they changed the red bars purple. So i have purple lasers
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0066.jpg
and for some odd reason i had them thinner. The laser is about 15 seconds and after 7 they get thicker, i'll fix it but this is what it should look like this is from the car, i thought i got a picture from outside the car but i guess i didn't
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0064.jpg
Well thats it for now, i hope to bring you more updates soon!

Looks cool! Get some inspiration from your trip?

[ryguy222]

^Course i did, thats how i knew where the lights were, did u get a chance to ride it? It had long lines all week

^Course i did, thats how i knew where the lights were, did u get a chance to ride it? It had long lines all week

We rode it a lot, we actually got to do it twice in a row without getting off. The brake system at the station failed and we just went right through the loading area.

[Zip~a~dee~doo~dah]

Super cool reilly. Looks great.

[ryguy222]

I even have more pix for you to look at!! things i just added
Something that is like AMAZING!

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0067.jpg
its animated too!

Its even got turns!
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0068.jpg

Then the 2nd lift hill this is the best i could think of to do
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0070.jpg

In the backround a weird looking planet

Better yet it shocks you once it disapears

[reillysix]

My jaw just fell off! AMAZING!

[ryguy222]

Since i worked all day on this i have pix from last night, i stopped at 11 and i was too tired to put pix up. I finished the layout, i've checked it out a few times with a few blue prints, and it seems to be pretty accurate, in fact its about the same as my last one, but it is in a diferent bulding, the other one had black walls and star wall all over the place, it was a huge mess, if you've downloaded the park you'll know what i mean. SO i added projection towers, in the ride there are towers with moving heads on them (the lights that move around and have cool shapes inside) It does work to project on the dome, and i have crazy things going on, on the countdown, i have a countdown projected right were you can see it, there are odd shapes being projected too, kinda like in the ride.

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0090-1.jpg
^here is a cut-away of the dome, i did this so i could adjust the lasers on one side easily, and then im going to switch it. Also there are two chasers (lights the flash and chase each other) i plan to add many more as there are a ton of them in the ride. http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0092.jpg
Here is a blue chaser, they go off right when you pass by

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0093.jpg
^this is one of the four projection towers

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0096-1.jpg
^and here is another projection tower

Thats all for now, i may have pix later today, idk if i'll be able to get on RCT3 today, don't expect this many pix a day, in fact don't expect a picture a day, there are so many bc im on spring break.

Marvelous.

[guitarattict]

hmmmm wonder how you came up with that idea...http://www.visionsfantastic.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14013lol. Oh, well. A little competition.....

[imagineer_me]

^ He got the idea from his trip to DL not from you. And he's not competing...read the first post.

Anyways, wow ryguy! This looks awesome!

[ryguy222]

hmmmm wonder how you came up with that idea...http://www.visionsfantastic.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14013lol. Oh, well. A little competition.....
Hmm.... how can i steal your ideas, when you don't even have shots from the ride? Thanks for the comments imgaineer me. Since i have to continaully delete and replace the Dome it changes location and the lasers need repositioing, it still projects, but the coutdown, the Planet above the tunnel, those keep moving. So for the important things i put black walls up. Once the dome is up, you won't be able to tell the difference between the dome and the black walls. Anyway i added a ROCK On sign to the ride, i know there isn't any of that, but since i don't have the dancers, im making up for it with a bunch of other things.

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0097.jpg

I fixed the countdown so its pretty synchronized with the music, Here's what ilooks like

To all who come to this happy place; welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here age relives fond memories of the past...and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams and the hard facts that have created America...with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.? - Walt Disney

[reillysix]

Nice awesome! I like the quote at the end. ;)

[ryguy222]

Just wanted to prove that disneyland inspired me, and thats one reason why it was created.

[reillysix]

That's cool, Walt's speech has really inspired me through my whole life.

[ryguy222]

Hate to break it to y'all but the thing that happend to me when i was bulding Space Mountain 2005, like last year has happend again. I just installed System Mechanic 6, and it defragmented my hard drive, so my computer is faster and such, but...it screwed up the files, when i run RCT3 it says wild is dected and i must have soaked installed, yet i have soaked installed, what this means is whenever i want to run the game i may have to re-install the whole set. RCT3, soaked, and wild. This sucks, and it may slow down updates. I may have a few tonight. Good news is that i checked at all of my files are still there so nothing was deleted.
EDIT:
OK so its all working again, i hope i don't have to reinstall wild next time :(
Anyway, a few problems i found, you have to be at a certain angle to see the projections, so some things disapear, like i have the words ROCK ON inside, and it looks like OCK ON so idk how to fix that, thats the only problem i have with projections, i fixed all the chasers, they don't look crappy anymore, i forgot to get pix, so i'll grab some tomorrow.
EDIT:
Here are those pix i promised!
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0109.jpg
I added some lights to the beginning, it makes the trains turn purple

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0110.jpg
I re-did the lasers a bit

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0113.jpg
And this is a "behind the scenes" shot of space mtn without any "pants" on lol

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0112.jpg
and another random shot

and since we had a random shot, how bout some random stats!

There are 97 laser domes
There are over 600 lasers, all are custom made (half made by me, the other half found in various packs)
24 Mixmasters keep all the lasers running smoothly!
and thats it for today!

[mrhappybomb]

this is looking really cool Ryguy222

[imagineer_me]

Still awesome! Space mountain's got no pants!!! Lol ryguy that was hilarious.
Keep it up!

[ryguy222]

^Im recording a preview as i type! Obviously im on a different computer, it most likely won't be released tonight, what you see in it is about 3/4 the effects and lasers that i want to have, so the full version will be very different, spceially bc space mtn hasn't found its pants!

[BCC]

Sweet. Cant' wait!

[ryguy222]

^ Well you don't have too! At least for the preview, and i was going to only release about 3/4 of this, but it recorded too long, and i thought i could clip it but i won't. So you get the whole ride, minus the exit tunnel, i haven't really done anything there. Anyways, here are your choices! I posted this on youtube, and on Megaupload. I highly suggest megaupload as the sound, and video quality are pretty high. Youtube on the other hand, likes to make things worse. The download takes one minute and 17 seconds on a high speed internet connection, not bad at all for a 3 minute video!

Youtube link (aka crappy version) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLi1mh7wEfs) This link may not work until 7:45-8 ish youtube can be slow

Megaupload-GOOD version short 1 minute download! (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WN3TUG37)
Hope you enjoyed! Just a quick reminder i do like constructive criticism, over criticism, also don't tell me that there is a gaping hole in space mtn I know!!! I didn't have time to fix holes in the lift areas, or the actual ride area. I know about them!! lol i betcha somebody is going to tell me that, then we know who read the whole post and who didn't then won't we?
-ryguy222

[imagineer_me]

Yay! I was the first to see! EDIT: Nevermind the youtube link isn't working yet as you said ryguy.

Waits patiently....

[ryguy222]

^Yes youtube sux like that, just get the megaupload it takes like a minute to download, besides i was first to see it! Mwahhhhahaha
Ok after 50 minutes of waiting! :( the youtube version is finally available.

[PolynesianFreak#1]

ryguy, instead of making ur track layout rlly inaccurate to make the train go faster, why dont u just make the exact layout and set it on low friction?
-PolyFreak#1

[ryguy222]

^I wouldn't call it really inacruate, its the last 30 seconds of the ride, and this is the exact same layout of Space Mountain 77, and you all said that was in-acurate, but not really in-accurate. Besides, i don't go to DL that often, and i don't know how to fix it. I didn't make it inacurate to make it faster, just did that bc i didn't know what else to put in there, but i'll work on it, try and make it a bit better.

[reillysix]

Looks cool, I know it would hard to make the lasers like the real ride... but there was some really random lasers in there. Other than that it looks cool.

[ryguy222]

^I know, i wanted projections on the dome, and i don't know what shapes to put. They had a few odd shapes i tried to create, but it didn't turn out. If anyone wants to make a few lasers for me that'd be awesome. Other wise im just throwin a bunch of the planet shaped one's in.

[mrhappybomb]

I like it the projections and stuff are cool same with the random lasers can't wait to see the whole thing.

[PolynesianFreak#1]

o k, yea actually ur right, its not THAT inaccurate...but anyways, I still like it a lot...CANT WAIT FOR THE RELEASE :):):)!

[ryguy222]

Ok i've been really busy, with chemistry, and english, but the lab reports are typed, and the books are read. So i've done so more work on things. I started to fill in a few walls, and i got a logo made. Rtoups made it, and i made a few adjustments to it, but here is the logo
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/RockinSM.jpg

Also, since i have vegas (well UPS has it at the moment, gets her the third but the trial is still working) im going to throw in those projected dancers. I need to find a video of RSM first, i know there out there, but i need permission. In vegas i can "pan" the video, so it will only show the dancers, it'll probably be a loop, so it shows every once and a while, anywho.. i'll use the chroma keyer to cut the un wanted junk out, then just put the dancer up on the wall for a couple seconds when there's an open spot on the dome ceiling. I'll try and get an update this weekend, but my aunt and uncle are visiting from minnesota, so no promises.

[ryguy222]

Alright its time for an update. I added in the metal arch at the end. I tried to get Klinns arch set to work but recently, all custom scenery that i install doesn't work! Not to long ago i had to wipe my computer because a few things were screwed up (even tho its only like a year old) so i all my Cs was deleted, and until now i didn't need a reason to have klinn's arch set, so i go and install it and it doesn't work, it did before, also the neon lighting set doesn't work, a bunch of vodhins things don't work. Idk im pissed about all that, but i still have battor77's lights pack, so the arches aren't curved at the top but oh well.
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0144-1.jpg
^there are two of the arches

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0139.jpg
^ a shot of some added lights

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0142.jpg
^inside the arch

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0145.jpg
^side shot of the arch

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0146.jpg
^added fake lights to the chaser lasers

thats it for now, i put the black flooring down, and covered the station roof with black roofing. Also added the ceiling to the first lift hill. So aside from the walls that go from the dome down and i plan to add those in maybe next weekend, but its easter and a bunch of family is coming out so idk if i'll do that. You can expect the FINAL video by the end of this month or beginning of May. Definitely not Fall 2007 as i thought it'd come out, of course thats becuase i didn't think i'd have vegas by now. I plan to get it on Google video because its a lot better resolution the youtube. Anyways if you got any comments or anything like that feel free to post!

[imagineer_me]

Looking great ryguy!

[ryguy222]

The moment you've all been waiting for....
The Release of Rockin Space Mountain!
I was sick today and i felt well enough to complete this. There are abosolutely Zero holes, unlike my other recreations. Today i mostly spent the time adding stuff to the station. It looks alot better with angled walls. Look at them below

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0180.jpg
^The yellow lights on the sides of the car signify the car is on the main line, and the music systems work. The red signifies The car is off the main line, and the audio systems are broken, or they are off. Also i made it more accurate and put the exit of the mainteance area in the correct spot this time. It actually is there and not by the main line.

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e214/ryguy222/Shot0174.jpg
^another picture there are more pix at the end after the credits in the video.



The Google Video Link (low res, not very good) (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3372267416969801009)


And the Megaupload 1-2 minute download time (high res, widescreen) (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2M6QVVK4)
A credit i forgot was the recording. The music for the ride was recording by Space Mountain here on VF (sorry bout that space)

Enjoy!

[superstrikertwo]

woo downloading now!

[Disneynovice]

Wow ryguy!!!!!!! I have to say that I am wicked impressed.
Now I know who to ask for some of my tech questions!!!!!!!!!

[ryguy222]

^thanks disney novice!

[summerz]

Wow that was fun, great job, thanks!:biggrin:

[imagineer_me]

Awesome, awesome, awesome, ryguy!

[ryguy222]

^thanks everyone! Im glad you liked it, its really odd, anything that i make, i noramally think it sucks. I can't name something of mine that i do like, lol but if you all think its good then i guess it is good. Its probably becuase i notice more things then you do because i've ridden the coaster 30+ times in game to see if everything worked, and the music was synched up. Every time your near a laser, the chasers for example, i had to start the ride, right when i turned it to night mode, then wait, and wait until the first car came. If i speed the game up for too long then the time becomes inaccurate, i noticed that quite a bit.

[reillysix]

i noramally think it sucks. I can't name something of mine that i do like

I'm honestly am not a fan of my stuff either. LOL

I'm downloading it now.

[properpropaganda]

wow that was really awesome. i wish i had the patience to create something like that

[ryguy222]

^and thats all you need to be good in RCT3, well i guess you need to be creative too, but its a lot of patience.

[guitarattict]

^ yea, ecspecially when I built the RRC show building(s) and a pyramid on an Indiana Jones ride. LOTS of patience. lol

[phd516]

I finally took the time to watch your video.. SUPERB JOB!!

[ryguy222]

^thank you! Its been out a while, but as long as you enjoyed it!
