RCT3: Blackheart's Cove "ABSU" Drop Coaster POV/Showcase

Welcome to Blackheart's Cove! This is the second Point Of View/Showcase video for the parks drop coaster, "ABSU". This was the 4th coaster project undertaken by the park in order to demonstrate its new leadership and grand direction. A few challenges incurred by this coaster were the island station and underwater tunnels.

"ABSU" was the 4th coaster to be built, but has probably gone through the most iterations inside the park (showcased by Blackheart's Cove Trailer Video). It got pretty wild at certain points in the parks history, but eventually settled into the footprint here in the video which is a lot smaller, less complicated and more refined... in my opinion.

What started as a simple scenario inside the "Soaked" expansion, Blackhearts Cove has become a lifelong hobby, as I have spent over a decade returning to the park in order to build, refine and create.

What is being presented is a series of videos in an attempt to produce a landscape and destination inside a simulated medium. The actual "game" aspect of RCT3 was left behind long ago, as I see it now more as a digital erector set or modeling program.

What will be showcased inside these videos is a mix of both vanilla and custom assets, all the tricks I have learned about hiding scenery, invisible pathing, custom coverings, short circuiting the recording system and other creative solutions I've found about building within the limitations of the engine.

All credits given at the end of the video. Thanks for watching!
