Legend of the Lost Army

well, I WAS going to use a bus scenery piece for the parts outside the bus (like when your walking up to it) and when your inside of it, I was using the suspended monorail. The windshield, like I said, is giving me some problems, so I'm thinking about transfering to an open-air vehicle like the jeeps from Wild!.

[disneyfreak59]

i think the jeeps from wild would work well.

You could use the jeeps, or use the monorail and do an outside camera view, and hide the track by making it invisible. To do this go to Options then Graphic settings or display i think its the eyeball. Then there is a drop down menu, set it to "Custom" then there are a ton of options, click on the box that says "show LOD Options" Then there are a bunch of sliders, go down to Tracks, and on the side where it says "draw distance" drag it all the way down to zero. Or you could just use jeeps

[Darth_Boomer]

ya, I was either gunna use the suspended monorail and make the track invisible or the jeeps and do the same thing. I'll try the jeeps then. I haven't had any problems with those before...

[ryguy222]

^Well I don't think you need to make the track invisible, it doesn't look that bad.

[Darth_Boomer]

well, to make it actually look like the walls floor and ceiling from the inside of a carved out cave, I would need to get rid of the asphalt track the jeeps come with ^_^". I tried the jeeps before without making the track go bye bye and the cave looked kinda wierd...

[ryguy222]

Yup because asphalt is definitly Brown and muddy looking :P
lol jk
whatever works, as long as the jeeps aren't floating like 10 feet above the ground.

[Darth_Boomer]

oh *THOSE* jeeps :P
I thought you were talking about something else ha ha ^_^"

[ryguy222]

Im talking about the safari jeep thingy's

[Darth_Boomer]

ya, ok. I get what you mean now :P

[disneyfreak59]

well guys, i WON, so you want to be an imagineer, and im ready to help boomer complete this!

[ryguy222]

^Congratulations! I can't wait to see the final video of this. Will post the park for download?

[Darth_Boomer]

well, so far it's like in 3 separate parts lol. I used the first park for the facade (and used the rest of the empty space for the preview scenery), the second for the bus scene, and the third for the actual ride. the bus scene is too spaced out to fit with everything else in one park lol. If I can find a way to shrink it and keep the feeling of traveling far away, then I'll remake it in one park

But now that Disneyfreak is helping out, the release date may be sooner than I thought. It all depends on how fast we build it lol. The bus scene has enlightened me into finding new ways to do the same effect, so construction should be faster than expected. I already brainstormed the entire ride and have my plans written down. ^_^"

EDIT: Of course, that's giving me a little too much credit in building the thing lol

OMG, this thread is so dead!!! i was wondering if you finished the ride? or you just cancelled the project?? i wanna know...haha. >.<

[ryguy222]

Haven't seen Boomer on the boards in a long time. So maybe this is dead. I've posted many threads and most have died. But my new coaster project that I posted is still alive and kicking. I just don't post pictures, because too many people criticize to early, before they get to see the big picture.
