I'm sure there's a topic on this somewhere, but, does anyone know what that wooden structure is that was being built by AE. I've been gone for awhile and wanted to know if anyone knows what it is yet.

Alright, the game's finishing touches are being put on it, I found alot of bugs that needed fixing. It would have already been out, but I had to go on vacation before I could finish. The game will be hosted on sites, not sent via e-mail. When I release the game I'll name the sites you can obtain it at. Sorry for the delay, and by the way, anyone wanting the game to be hosted on their site, pm me.

It's not for a new ride, the wood was definetly for a building, as well as the frame. There's also like a little space behind it for something, like an airconditioner or something. Also, whatever it is, it's there to stay, they had footers poured and that was very thick wood.

Over to the left of Simon Says and to the right of the racing cars in Oktoberfest there's a building being erected. It's fairly large, maybe a new shop?

Sorry, but the game has once again delayed after testing. The game uses a sort of movie clip for it's opener and credits, neither of which transfer over the net well. Instead, I'm replacing them with straightforward pictures, doing this requires some extra time, but the game is still on track. The new date for release is tomorrow night, as I need to correct this problem, and send it thru testing tonight and tomorrow. Also, the game will now be around 15 megabytes in size, and will be in one zip file. After you open the zip, all you have to do is click on the icon and it'll start up. This is much simpler than the previous process involving 2 zip files. Thankyou for your patience.

Okay, I finally got the zip to work. There will be 2 winzip files sent. Hopefully, the first will get sent tonight, the other, sometime tomorrow. I have one last test to perform, and the game is about 24 megs total. There are 2 zips because I had to break it up because of file size. Make sure you read the readme in the second zip file, it'll tell you how to get the game working, it's pretty simple, but also pretty strange. But it will work. If you have any questions, just pm me. Expect the game to arrive at your computer within(hopefully)24 hours. Thanks!

The game's finished now, but I haven't been able to find a way to mail it. Hopefully I can find a way to e-mail it by tuesday, but if not, I may have to send a copy on disc to someone to put on their site. AOL won't let me attach a folder, if someone knows how, please tell me. However, the game is 35 megabytes, but hey, it's free, so hopefully no one will complain.

I don't know how large the game will be, yet. But I can tell you that I currently have 2 weapons in the game, several puzzles, a few battles, a first person section, and I am currently working on a boat chase sequence. The game's main focus is exploration and puzzles, with few battles. I opted to go with few battles because many people who play this game may never have played an RPG before, and therefore may have trouble with the battle system. Also, I am going to be sending the game out on tuesday, hopefully. And then I'm off for my first summer trip to pki, I can barely wait. Everything's going smoothly, and there's even a Jeff Siebert platforming game in the sketches by a neighbor of mine. But nothing concrete has been made on that. Thanks for your interest!

I think your missing the point, it's just for fun. I've made a ton of games, and wanted to make one about my favorite park, PKI. The obvious person to be the main character was Jeff, he's the person we all most connect to the park. No need to be hostile.

Yep, Jeff is back. And he's cleared the game. I can continue production. Expect it out shortly!

Sorry, but the game has been delayed. A family issue has came up and pushed me back a few days, as well as technical issues with the game's setup program. Also, I need to get Jeffrey Siebert's permission to use his likeness in the game, as well as the park's permission. After nearly a week, I still have had no response from Mr. Siebert, he might be on vacation or something. If anyone has contacted Jeff, and gotten a reply lately, please tell me. I would like to get this game out as soon as possible. If I can get Mr. Siebert's permission, I will set the title's new release date as next sunday, the 29 of June. Thanks.

Mainly, with the brahma statue, they didn't have to worry about people thinking it was small, the room is built like Disneyworld's Mainstreet USA. The bottom of the room is actual size, but as it rises, things get smaller. I think this how they made him look big. And when Lara stands in front of the statue, the camera is on the ground level, pointing up, making the statue look bigger than it is. Then it's switched over to CG for the battle between Lara and the Statue. You know, thinking about it, I like TR:TR's durga more than the brahma statue in the preshow. For those that don't know, Durga(sometimes called Shiva)is the "boss" of the ride in the ride room.

Tuesday it was operational with most effects running.

Whoa! I have 20 requests for this game! I'm here to report that the progress is incredibly smooth, and I'm predicting it to be done by friday, I then have to some checking, and see how the game holds up after being transfered to another PC. So it should be Sunday when you get your copy. I don't know if it can be supported on macs, I think so. I'll problably send the game as a compressed winzip file. Expect it soon. Thanks guys!

Wow! I can't believe so many people want this! I'll definetly try to get it done soon. You should be receiving a reservation notice pretty soon. If you don't by Wednesday, pm me so I can make sure you get your copy. When I put this game out, it will most likely be late at night, and I'll ship them all out then. Also, if you don't want to suffer through the lengthy download for the game when it releases without knowing if it's any good, just wait. The game will be available(hopefully) through The Jeffrey Siebert Fan Page. Thanks for all the responses, everyone so far is on the list and I'm shipping reservations now.

Thanks for all the responses, the game is progressing smoothly, and I've already got a build of the first of 3 areas Jeff will be exploring. As for attacks, I really don't know what I'm going to do. For the most part it will be punches and kicks, but that beast thing gave me an idea. Thanks! Just remember, I need your e-mail address if you want a copy. At the rate the game is progressing you may see it by this weekend. First come, first serve.

I am happy to anounce that in light of recent summer boredom and due to a family emergency I have not been up to PKI in some time, I have begun construction of a Jeffrey Siebert video game. When PKI's new coaster designs have been stolen it's up to Jeff to get them back. It'll be an RPG, not too long, and free. If anyone is interested and wants a copy, I'd be happy to send you one when the game gets completed in about 2-3 weeks. I just thought someone might find this interesting...

Of course the catch with Tomb Raider: The Ride, is that the ride is a whole lot more than just a giant top spin. No other top spins, or dark rides for that matter, hurl you into spikes, drop 60 feet face down, flip you head over heels, and suspend you upside down over a lava pit with erupting geysers of steam and "lava". Not to mention an awesome(though terribly long)preshow process with large rooms, roll back doors, and artificial smoke and fire. Wrap that up with actual movie props, incredibly detailed theming, and the ride's own personal soundtrack, and you get the most elaborate PKI attraction yet. I would really like to see another dark ride like this in the park. I just wish it worked more.

Yes, getting nailed by the water can considerably enhance the experience, or at the least soak you. I've been nailed in the face in the front row, the closest you can get. Those things are really powerful. After they tweaked them towards the end of last season. And the mechanical noises can be heard if you are on the absolute left or right sides of the vehicle. Anywhere else, and I'm not too sure what was going on...

Actually, you can call guest relations I believe. But they never know if TR:TR will operate or not. If you want to ride it, go in the fall, it worked nearly perfectly all last fall with few show problems. However, the ride just hasn't had a good restart for the season, despite having alot of off season repairs. It was operating well thru may, then just kicked over like on opening weekend. The good news is, every other ride in the park, especially the new ones, seems to be operating well. Still, going to PKI and not riding TR:TR just doesn't seem like a complete trip for me.

Actually, I am happy TR:TR is taking some downtime for repairs. I would personally love to see the door work again, and last time I rode it, 2 saturdays ago, it was definetly the worst ride I had ever had on it. All the service lights in the digs were on and the antechamber. The loading lights in the ride room stayed on, and the preshow lights never completely went off. It seemed pretty pathetic. Still a great ride, I'm just being critical. But if PKI needs to take time to get one of their best attractions fully operational, I say do it.

Dialogue is first at the the point where the vehicle and the goddess meet eye to eye, she says something. Next after that you raise past the ceiling an lara says "your making a big mistake". After that at the ice as it all turns red the goddess says something. Then, when the vehicle is nearing the station at the end, lara's FATHER says "nobody gets the best of lara croft, unless she lets them, and I didn't raise that kind of girl." The lights then go out, and lara says "absolutely".

What is SRM? Must be pretty good to rival The Beast.

There are new bars coming, but they were delayed. I got that from Jeffrey Siebert. As for the annoying floor boards, I don't know if they're being taken out. Personally, I think they need better padding inside the car as well. Any way you ride that you walk off in pain. I can't even enjoy it anymore.

Wow, so many questions answered. Finnaly, I always wondered why you had all this corporate access over the winter at PKI. All that stuff you were sure about on pki, all the info. It all makes sense now. With that said, your book rules and I've read it roughly 30 times on my 17 mile bus ride to school everyday. It's really an honor to have you on the forum. And for a first time writer, that was incredibly impressive. I learned alot from it. Good luck with your book, you deserve it.
