I know SL isn't supposed to be Roller Coaster Tycoon, but I recently discovered one great ride builder, kawasan Mayo, purely by luck and wondered who else is out there who isn't getting the recognition they deserve. I've been to the SL amusement parks and know the current makers. But are there any others out there tinkering in their sims with a cool new gut-twisting spin-and-puker or astounding coaster? If so, I wanna ride!

When I was testing one of her rides with some folks from the cartel this week, it seemed like everyone knew someone who had made something cool to ride.

I dunno if it's the same place, but I happened upon a place called "Carnivale" the other night, which has some really great carnival rides for sale an rent. I think some of the scripting could be better on the ferris wheel and carousel, but the texturing and builds are *perfect*

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

i know there's an amusement part in the sim Prim Hearts... i haven't been in awhile though, but i remember thinking it was really fun and nicely textured. And they have some buy it and build it yourself bits too, if i'm remembering right ^_^ maybe worth looking at.

Not exactly a carnival ride, but I found a cheesy in a good way Jurassic Park Jeep ride that was fun. Let's just say it doesn't quite go where you expect it to. No dinosaurs anywhere that I could tell though :( It's at Mocha 26,170,31.

Provided we think of the same place: The sim is Falln Amusements, and has the nicest furniture shop you will ever find. :D
