None of the theming would change. Instead, they would reintroduce a new ride program. This would mean that the soundtrack for the ride woudl have to be reworked to correspond to the theming. From what I`ve heard, it is a legitamite possibility that it may recieve a new program in the future, although I`m not sure if that will be in 2005 or not.

I love TRTR. From the time you walk up to enter the cue line the ride sets the mood. No other park in Ohio has a ride that does this. Once you enter the tomb you are entertained by the scenery and special effects until it’s your turn to ride.

More is meant by Program than music and effects.

Huss Top Spins operate on different modes. In Roller Coaster Tycoon, it calls them Beginners, Intermediate and Berserk. I am not sure what the programs are really called, but TRTR is on the equivalent of Beginners now. When HUSS comes to reprogram the ride, it will be longer in length, and probably do faster flips, and more of them.

It will probably be upgraded to 'intermediate'. Expect a longer and more exciting experience next season! laugh.gif

Yes there is more to the ride program than just the show, but the current show and ride sequence are designed around each other. You can't just change what the ride does without changing the show. If you did, the show would make no sense.

Now, changing the show lighting shouldn't be extremely hard; PKI's entertainment department could probably do that. Changing the audio would be a different matter. The entire thing would have to be reorchestrated and that wouldn't be easy or cheap.

I think the ride operation is being reprogramed. The reason PKI hasn't done it earlier is that HUSS told them that HUSS had to come out and do it. If it was just theming, then HUSS wouldn't care if PKI did it - all they care about is the ride.

do you work for huss? or no you are the person who is actually working on the new program right now and this is how you know everything about TRTR. therefore you can explain to me where "CLX_E_114 MotionStatus notok Skew" comes from or "SLC_E_025 ArmSynch notok" can you explain this one?

I suppose that was directed towards "the klockster" so I'll let him answer it, but i know where they come from, as well do you matt.

ha ha ha, if only it said, hey, Fatal Error, Abort, Run Away!

Operator Error, Brake Error, Restraint Error, and not something like"NotOk" or "Stucked" LOL this would not pass 2nd grade...

You know, they are a European company, it's probably that darn metric system.

Rockwell Automation isn't an european country, their based in Milwaukee Wisconsin.

I picked up a park map while I was at Fear Fest last night. When I got home and was looking at the map I came upon the listing for Tomb Raider: The Ride and this is what it said : "Tomb Raider: The Ride The Sequel- Experience a longer and more thrilling adventure as mystery and mayhem collide in an epic battle of fire and ice." Now I did not ride Tomb Raider last night, and I highly doubt that they changed the program on it this late into the season. But, could this be a hint that next year TRTR will have a new program? Did anyone else notice this in the park maps?

Cool!

The spelling on screen would have nothing to do with rockwell. All they do is make the PLC (Programmable logic controller) that runs the ride. The spelling is the problem of the people who program it which would be HUSS. Which last I remember they are based out of Germany.

I didn't like TR:TR. I tend to get off the ride feeling a little sick. It's not my idea of fun. Oh well. Maybe if the reprogram it it would be better? They are building a new version of the ride at PKD so they could be coming up here to do some work on this one.

pki is getting a new ride program for tombraider?! Hope you guys have fun with it this year. well i think everyone knows that another tombraider the ride is going into paramount which is Kings Dominion. i think pki's old ride program will go into pkds version because i heard it does 5 flips too. is pki's 2004 ride program good or no good? unsure.gif

o yeah!, PKD will be opening 12 days before PKI lol. HAVE A GOOD TIME ON TRTR NEW PROGRAMING!

Unless PKD's TRTR has an Icefield or something else of interest above the ride, I doubt it will have the same program as PKI's has (or had, hopefully)
