Disney with BAT???

[bud21 0]

Has anyone thought of building the Disney castle with BAT? It will one of the best BAT buildings ever.

If you want to get someone to build in the BAT the Disney Castle(s), ask in the Official BAT Request Thread. And no, it has not been done yet to my knowledge. I hope that helps!

On a related note, I haven't tried the castle yet, but I've actually built and tested a version of the Disney Contemporary Resort Hotel:

I didn't get extremely far with the details on the building, yet.  I built a basic structural outline and mostly tested getting the monorails to run through it like they do in the real building.  If people express an interest I may try to finish the project.  I would just need a lot of help with the modding issues: like 1) just make it a giant monorail station? 2) or can a monorail run through a commercial plopable?

Anyway, I live an hour away from Disney World, so I've given BATting thoughts to a lot of their unique buildings.

I'd like to see this.  I would suggest just having the monorail run through it, kind of a decor.  Make the lot functional as a CS$$.  Of course, I'm partial to hotels...

I'f I'm not mistaken, you could make it both commercial and transit, if you add the right properties. The question is, do you want Commercial or Landmark? In all three types, Comm/Transit/Landmark, you can have the monorail run through. As long as the LODs are edited properly, you shouldn't have any trouble.

I was planning on doing a theme park kind of development, but it would not have the tacky rides.  It would be more of a urban development like Main st in Disneyworld.  It would be cool to incorporate those elements in a development, such as monorail, walkable neighborhoods, reccreation, onsite schools, etc.

 

AND you wouldn't have to wait 8 hours to get on a ride!!!

Dusktrooper, that's a cool idea.  But how are you going to build something that's only 2 or 3 stories?  We wouldn't recognize it!

I would love to see anything disney related...I have been working a section of my region as a major themepark...Still working on learning to design my own stuff, I work retail...time is always an issue for me. I have downloaded everything I could find that is amusement park related...May I also suggest a realistic Space Mountain, epcot, the list goes on... If Walt Disney were alive he would be playing SIMCITY

If Walt Disney were alive, he'd be clawing at the inside of his coffin.

Seriously, though, the castle at Disneyland in Anaheim was modeled after the Schloss Neuschwanstein which is in Germany I believe. The dimensions are different, but the Disney castle borrowed a lot of the style from SN - and that one's already in your landmark menu, so with a little bit of tweaking it could be turned into a CS$$ building.
