Nice to see I finally got support with javs adding the rest of the rides, I became tied up in important work. But the models are excellent! Well done (: Be nice to get a free ticket to Thorpe park one day for my modelling effort =D I joke.
-
Pizza Hut models are LIVE now on Google Earth, the rest are to follow within the next week or so. I'm still working on Tidal Wave, but have just finished CRUST Food shop located next to Colossus.When will they be on Google Earth?
-
I do my best lol =DReally cool models, definitely worth putting into a 3d park.
-
Thanks lol Tidal Wave model is taking me so long to do.. Quite a fiddly one to be honest. And I've always been one for detail. Next on the line is X:\ No Way Out.. which from early test models may seem tricky as I can't find sufficient textures for the building. Might have to make them up..And for the others.. Sketchup is easy to learn. You just got to stick at it and watch the tutorial videos and play around with it all the time.These are pretty awesome. Hard work has obviously gone into making these models. Very impressive ! These should look great on Google Earth.
-
Yeh it is.. I'll have to fix thatI love that diagram Though, the lift part looks slightly curved.
-
Arr! always wondered about the flame & why thank you! lol =D TIDAL WAVE IN THE MAKINGI would more say ' no longer physically operational' - As its not really broken, just has no gas tank to enduce the fire ;)Nonetheless, these models are primarly the best I have ever seen! I would help but I am an abomination at google sketch-up!
-
10 points to whoever guesses what this is I've modelled.. lol
-
That was my mistake sorry. Only just discovered TP on street view.. and thought it was up to date news lol. Another view of Burger King Building:They've been merged... I think.
-
SHARK? lol well I didn't see any sharks from the pictures I've used to texture it.. Show me and I'll add it [= And thanks! And finished the model just this second:Missing the shark, apart from that, cant fault it.
-
Better late then never! [=Your about 10 Months late....
-
Really? =D What software you using? I'd love the help hahI do quite a bit of modelling, and have in fact made most of the entrance area of Thorpe already. I'll give you a hand in your quest!
-
Well I think TP deserves it =D I'm just working on Amity HotelVery good indeed... Nice to see Thorpe get some attention. Alton already has a few models.

Hey everyone =D Just thought I'd let you know that I've started to make 3D models of Thorpe park for anyone in the world to see on Google Earth. Here are 2 models I've done so far: BURGER KING http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=ac2331b64fe63328d88a7002dfb37846&result=12]PIZZA HUT http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=24a29f604b413fc1d88a7002dfb37846They are currently waiting to go live on Google Earth, but when they do.. You can check them out in full 3D. It's going to take me a while to model the park in my own time, as each model takes about 4/6 hours depending on detail. Although some guy has modelled STEALTH which is live now.=DSTEALTH or visit map location on Google Earth. http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=8eccf97caf4515c2ef70d2754009e26f&prevstart=0LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK FACTS+ Google Earth is FREE http://www.google.co.uk/intl/en_uk/earth/index.html+ The software I use to model is FREE http://sketchup.google.com/ - So start learning and help me! lol+ I do a lot of other models in my spare time - http://www.geomod3d.co.uk

Well they better sort out there ride reliability, and iron out the creases. As main season is coming, and you dont want down times on rides with a packed park everday ... Ohhh mrs thorpe park, will you ever go a season with a break down
-
Some of them SRQ people are cheeky, they wait in the SRQ and went the staff aint looking. They run up the stairs and join the main que...Ah kk because I went a couple of weeks ago on Saturday and in 20 mins 1 person from SRQ got on. It was taking ages.
-
Well we know they bought a few more of them, knocking the time in to the under 2 second barrier. So nothing stops them buying more in the future and enhancing the ride.It could also be down to a restricted budget during construction - so Thorpe couldn't afford more than 24 hydraulic tanks.Just a theory...
-
I know thats why I took nearly full advantage of it, got on and got off and went back up the single riders que and straight back on it with my mate.. Though after the 15th time feel a bit urghhhh lol Went for pizza hut buffet... not good was fighting the urge not to gag , and looking at stealth just outside the window didnt help either lol. Good day though :DWanna get 20 in a row next weekI got 5.Cant believe it was a 10min queue all day
-
Woohoo paid for the on ride video of me and my mate on Saw yesterday.. only shame is that we been on it many times before, so reactions werent as great on video compared to going on it for the first time. Everyone elses videos, were full of them screaming and holding on tight - eyes shut and some even on the verge of puking lol. While my video is just me and my mate casually talking on it.. which is a little funny I guess but a shame as first ride video footage would be priceless.Hope people will start uploading their saw videos online, and hopefully get some funny ones of people being sick or something
-
Woohoo, rode Stealth 15 times today.. 13 of them in a row within an hour
-
Not good, not good Hope they can get it fixed and running efficiently soon
-
That Skyhawk at Cedar point looks Awesome
You can see KDK in the background too.. oh I soo wanna go there. I wish Thorpe would let me put Rush in my back garden lol -
Slammer is awesome, and to me detonator scares the hell out of me , and I wont go on that again ever again... But I been on slammer sooo much that I was getting really bored of it . Until it broke down the other day , and thats replaced the fun fear factor of the ride again. Go on it!! Its wickedWell I hope so, I didnt think I would like Vortex or Zodiac but they were awesome!
-
1st ride on it: Scared rating: 50% 2nd ride on it: Scared rating: 75% 3rd ride on it: Scared rating: 200% ahhh4th ride on it: Scared rating: Haven't gone on it since hahaEverytime I go on it, I crap myself even more For me, detty is scariest ride at TP for me

I was on it last week when it broke down.. I was sitting on the left side, and just as the ride began. I heard a massive cracking sound. Straight away the ride slowed down. We made one full revolution, and went round once in more in slow motion.. Proper slow going upside down lol. I was bored of Slammer till it broke down :PI got some pics, will problee upload them. But nothing special, just me stuck up in the air for 30minutes.. I waddled out my top restraint, leaned over the side and took pictures of the engineers. They finally got us down, took us to the Calypso tents. Gave us free hot chocs and 4 exits passes each. A good day I must say lol got on stealth twice in under 5 minutes.. Peak Easter time!! haha Surprised it's still broken, though that crack sound really didnt sound good. To me, sounded like something inside the ride like the massive steel supports or something crackedWhat is actually wrong with slammer? Is it because of the breakdown at an angle
