No idea other than scenario editor/parkdat-ing extra things out, sorry.

>>2086815
No, as far as I'm aware tabs are actual .DAT files.

There's always OpenRCT... eventually™.

>>2086748
Too many scenery objects on one tab? I know there's a limit but I don't know what it is offhand.

>>2086218
It only happens if you start 8cars while in a scenario. Completely harmless, as far as I can tell.

>>2086152
It always does that. You never noticed?

>>2085727
Er, there are five block sections there, not 4. There's another between trains 3 and 4.

Like I said, shitty attempt.

>>2085545
If a train is using two block sections, and you're using (block sections - 1) trains, then the next train can't go through to the next block section because it's being used by the train in two block sections which causes a domino effect. Try removing a train.

For reference, refer to my shitty attempt at showing it as a diagram.

My headset has an inline volume control. The only time I change a program's volume in Windows is if it's interfering with something else I'm listening to.

Hell, I have VLC set to 200% because I only use the inline control. It's so much more convenient.

>>2077730
Not in the game, but there's this.

>>2077530
Eternal Suffering.

>>2077346
I don't get this. It looks like a good coaster overall, do woodies just have an intensity hole above a certain length?

>>2077221
What, like this?

I refuse to believe that is the actual icon for worst park value.

>>2069395
Wouldn't you /want/ to be liberal with cash machines to extort as much money as possible from guests, or am I missing something?

>>2069389
I forgot to add, use lots of on-ride photos and charge like $5 for them, and for the park entrance, watch the incoming guests and set the entrance fee to the lowest amount of cash a guest is carrying (around $30 in my experience).

>>2069372
Set park entrance has high as possible (probably around $30), charge out the ass for concessions/novelty shit, $20 umbrellas if it's a rainy scenario (otherwise charge $5-6 so you're always getting money from them), be aggressive with marketing campaigns, don't be afraid to charge up to $0.30 for bathrooms.

If anyone else has anything to add, that's what I could think of off hand.

>>2068627
I should also probably mention, if you do use the GOG version, don't use GOG's shortcut and don't run it from launcher.exe. The compatibility options have to be set on RCT.exe.

>>2068597
Use Windows 98 / Windows ME, Disable Visual Themes.
Check your anti-virus.
Disable UAC/Run as Administrator.
Try GOG version. Make sure to try the above things too if it doesn't work.
If all else fails, don't use Windows 8/use a VM.

You missed Halloween by almost two weeks, Mr. Bones.

A for effort, though.

You can click-and-hold and drag, m8.

How the hell do you manage to get so many error trappers? I've gotten like one that actually affected me in my entire life.

>>2052940
needsmoretransportation/10

I like the building too.

>>2049434
Just a suggestion, but try checking your antivirus/other running applications. I feel like something is trying to access your game's memory and causing the error trapper to trigger, because it seems like you're constantly getting them.
