In the same tweetchain there's the mention that the park has sent out proposal requests to multiple vendors for any one of them to finish Mad Ramp Peak at least, and KumbaK is said to have shown interest. Whether anyone will take on the task given the costs involved remains to be seen.Photo of the interior of the SFX Coaster from the park's former president.

it's really unfortunate that a park has put so much faith into one supplier to create their two arguably 'signature' attractions - for them now to have gone out of business. Must be very frustrating as they aren't simple roller coasters either.
I was actually at Genting Highlands today and the SFX coaster looks in pretty bad shape. Track is filthy, whole area it's in looks run-down and it's a huge eyesore to the park IMO. I think the same is probably true of Mad Ramp Peak, but as the area is already themed to be a bit more worn out it doesn't look so obviously neglected. Shame really, as they both look like they'd be quite unique rides, at a pretty unique looking park.
For what it's worth - didn't bother going into the outdoor park (Genting Highlands Theme Park) as it's quite steep without the two interesting coasters operating. The indoor park (Skytropolis somethingorother) has a new powered coaster that isn't open yet and a Volare which is currently down for maintenance.
Mercifully, I knew this going in and therefore wasn't really the purpose of the trip. Decent day out up the cable car and the like, mind.

Still?
They told me just over a year ago now that it was almost ready. It was all built, lights flashing and everything.
Well if their progress in the outdoor park is anything to go by...Still?

what I can find out is that, while dynamic went bankrupt, the two attractions have a good chance, the park has also opened a tender for any company interested in operating the dynamic attraction, Mad Ramp Peak will be taken over by the production company Kumbak and they are also interested in that, for SFX Coaster it may take more time to wait I hope Intamin will take over, also I saw some workers who were checking the surface of the Mad Ramp Peak track last month maybe it was from Kumbak officials.
I managed to ask the park workers that the SFX Coaster still has components that have not been installed and that the project will be completed in 2025 and will open in 2026.

It's been reported that new track has appeared on site at Genting.
You have to look closely but if it is a coaster it appears to be some kind of single rail
There doesn't appear to be a second rail.
Personally I suspect this isn't a coaster at all. All the pieces seem to be shaped almost identically and that's not any track style I recognise. Along with the strange T shaped supports on the left it could be for some structure.
However since it may be a coaster I'll post it in here just in case.

Could be for that planned Wings Over Rio phase 2 attraction maybe? Not sure what this was supposed to be;

I believe it was originally due to be a Mack inverted power coaster that got canned late on.
But it is a big empty building now so you could fit pretty much anything in it.
It's shame , I have a friend there he told me all those structures are not on rides or any attractions, they are actually sheet metal for a roof addition that is being installed in the Central Park area, nothing to do with the coaster sfx project or any other attractions.
