For anyone that's got Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, this seems an interesting project that's going on.

Wow! That's gonna be fantastic!
I also own a copy of RCT3 but need to upgrade my graphics card to run it. I'll have to make that top priority now.

I was thinking of doing a Dreamland recreation in NoLimits (the rollercoaster designer game). You can build your own coasters and create static scenery / rides with 3ds models. It's really technical stuff, kinda like coaster CAD you could say.

The demo version of Nolimits is free to download at www.nolimitscoaster.com and there are thousands of coaster tracks available to download at www.coastersims.com (including the Looping Star). I also found a Scenic Railway but I am not 100% sure that the circuit is exactly the same as the one at Dreamland.

You can ride all the coasters viewing from any angle - onboard or offboard. If you buy the software - it is only about 15 quid and this gives you the ability to create your own coasters using the editor.
