July 2023 - Steeplechase

July 2023 - Steeplechase

Hey everyone!

A steeplechase is a ride which has only been built at a few parks in the world, and is great at making you feel like you're going to fall of your vehicle! These rides have been built with horse vehicles, motorcycle vehicles, but also with soapbox derby cars! These rides look great when there are multiple tracks dueling with each other!

Rules

You are allowed to team up with one other person in this round! It doesn't matter if you teamed up with the same person in the previous round!

  • Rule 1: You have to make one or more steeplechase coasters! You must use the steeplechase coaster track, but you are allowed to splice in short sections of other tracks. 
  • Rule 2: You must use any of the steeplechase vehicles from RCT2 or one of its official expansions.
  • Rule 3: The deadline for this contest will be on the 27th of July at 19:00 CEST!
  • Rule 4: For this contest, you are NOT allowed to use custom scenery or rides in your park, also NOT the recolorable custom objects from the DKSO bench! You are allowed to use a custom palette if you want!
  • Rule 5: The maximum map size for this round is 2000 tiles. This number will be calculated by multiplying the size of the map edges. Black tiles will not be deducted from the total size. You could for example make a map that is 40 x 50 tiles, or 25 x 80 tiles.
  • Rule 6: There is no limit to the amount of opened rides you can have in the park.
  • Rule 7: Have fun!

How to join

  • Step 1: Join my Discord server. Discord is completely free! https://dkmp.wtf/discord
  • Step 2: Build your map and decorate it!
  • Step 3: When you are done with your contest entry, go on Discord, and send the save file to me in a Private Message. For the name of the save file, I want you to simply use the name that you use on Discord. For example, if your discord name is Your Mom, for the save file name, use Your Mom.park. After you have sent the save file to me, I will look if it follows the rules, and I will check for anything you can still improve. You can resubmit your entry until the deadline of the round, even if I have already accepted it. Please deselect all unused custom objects before sending in the save file!
  • Step 4: Submit a story for others to read in the voting poll!

After the deadline has passed, I will put up a voting poll with all the entries. In this voting poll, everyone who is a member on my Discord, including you, will be able to rate all the other entries, and leave a short review.

When the voting period is over I will announce the results in a Youtube video!

Good luck, and have fun!
