Theme Park Builder 3D
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Theme Park Builder 3D is a community developing 3DRCG (3D Roller Coaster Game) and Theme Park Builder originally founded by DoctorJ, Jonwil and "Mark Paul" Sebar. The community official motto for this new game is "The Future Is Ours!". The project is registered at Source Forge under the GNU license and will be completely free for downloading to the Computing public including all official expansion theme packs, scenery and rides. Charter developers who make items for the game will also be asked to make sure their add-ons are free or their expansions will not be made official. The new program is to feature a new FRCS (Flat Ride Construction Set) thus allowing users to create flatrides and a CCS (Coaster Construction Set) allowing users to make the base coaster and other tracked rides used by game users later in coaster track designs. Additional features include Darkness by default within structures, a 360 alignment manager for all objects and rides within the game/modeler in 1 degree or less increments, a Building Generator, Importation of all 3D objects by the user, a Path Manager where you even paint your 3D paths, AI Artificial Intelligence for 3D People in the game and a Water Manager. As of this writing, many new features are being contemplated, discussed and added to the list for the Developers to put in the program.
The game will be as mentioned free to the public. It has additional features in theme packs a possible plug-in architecture, Lag free operation on systems, even when a Disneyworld park in 3D has been constructed.
[edit] Game play
Theme Park Builder 3D will allow both single and multiplayer action including over the internet though a High Speed Connection will be required. In single player on your home computer you will have several modes with the emphasis being on the modeling end of your amusement park. Game play will allow single players who download a copy of the park file to visit that park or manage it according to the password protected tasks the original park builder assigned. In Multi Player mode two basic play styles will exist. A server park will be online and clients who visit that park or resort can either visit as part of the park management team or as a park guest. Besides the task mode for both single player and multiplayer modes, the park will have a "TRUE" sandbox mode where the player can just visit with unlimited resources and privileges.
[edit] Expansion packs
Since this a community project, many expansion packs are expected to come online though perhaps not all at one time and not completely. They will basically be growing packs in different themes such as Pirates, Santa's Village, Midway, Retro, etc.
