Your wooden coaster a shit

First for libertarian parks

Went to recreate a coaster that I had made in RCT3, noticed that I can't make steep chain hills so I had to change a thing or two. This being the result.

I think it's well enough.

>tfw still can't build proper coasters with E>I>N numbers

kill me now

>>1686814
Here are the scores, went too quick with the screenshot and they weren't generated yet.

How good is that freerct (freerct.blogspot*com)

Are people even adding the new rides from these threads to that /v/ pack?

>>1686828
The finished result.

The theme is just for the attraction. I'm not playing a scenario or global theme yet.

First thing I tried to build in RCT3. I can't believe that coaster has "good" stats or are the stats in RCT3 different?

6,56
6,01
2,40

>>1686995

I really want to try rct3 but the graphics are actually horrendous

3k guests in forest frontiers
My park is slowly turning into a parking lot overrun by megawide highways to alleviate crowding

I'm considering making a 3 lane wide ULTRA highway through my park. Should I?

To follow up on the last thread, what software would you use to make custom rides, provided you were crazy enough to actually make all the sprites?

>>1687357
>>1687198

I think the best bet for dealing with congestion is a 3 lane pathway, but with a median in most places to avoid guest confusion and allow for some gardens and statues.

If it's just a 3-wide pathway, janitors will have a hard time keeping it clean, and it will lead to guests wandering in zig-zagging paths which will cause more crowding.

A 3-wide with a median is more effective than a double width path, imo, and looks better.

>>1687497
Can you post an example of your 3 lane with median

What's the median to pathway ratio?

>>1687537

Here's my Forest Frontiers Mine doesn't have as many peeps as yours, but it's almost undercrowded. The other thing I've been using, since I'm at the point where I can wipe my ass with in-game money, is really low ride prices and loooong queues that eat up peeps, but keeping them happy with entertainers and lamps.

Essentially, I'm providing the best park possible at the lowest cost, which is extra important for guest retention on RCT 1 parks, because no ATMs.

The top left is the entrance.

Sidenote- the bottom right area, the last remaining open area in the park, has been filled with a giant Suspended Swinging Coaster that eats up about 70 or so in the line, and I think a max capacity of 72 on ride.

>>1687553
Thanks m8 it's great

>>1687483
It's all explained here:

Saw this cool thing on r/rct:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDuB8YJTFGzuBYj-7lg5ZDhM9KGT0VUOZ

Some guy made a bunch of time-lapses of different scenarios. Pretty relaxing to watch.

Anyone else having trouble finding this thread in catalog view? The OP image is not green enough to me.

I didn't even delete the path under him or anything, the bastard just fucking killed himself. ;_;

muh childhood

>>1686814
Thats the lamest coaster ever.

r8 mein woodie

>>1688449
It's a start at least. plus one of the first I made ever since I reinstalled RCT3 and 2, so typical at best.

>>1688453
Clunky

>>1688460
wh-what about my floorless?

>>1686824

>>1688467
Breddy neat, but looks intense.

>>1688487
It's pretty intense, yeah. Had to add a couple trim brakes before I opened it.

>>1688453
on any other scenario i think it would look pretty cool. in my opinion woodies just dont fit the space theme

>>1688505
yeah, needed a coaster to get me my last few guests to win the scenario, and all the other coaster types I had were shit or I already built something similar.

>>1688453
I'm certain I've seen that woodie before.

>>1688512

Not the guy you're replying to, but I get that a lot.

>>1688128

That guys Forest Frontiers is bad and he should feel bad.

>>1688512

Perfect.

>>1688608
What happens if the rider is a bit fat?

>>1688609
We're about to find out.

>>1686841
Ain't nobody posting their track files.

Been trying a few different building styles, my first few building were pretty square, and ugly looking.

>>1688746
I'm digging the chairlift and restaurant but the giga is atrocious.

>>1688583
Now I've watched more of it, I agree with you.

Literally no planning at all.

Going to get either RC1 or RC2 from gog during the sale. I've only ever played 2 and 3. What are the differences between 1 and 2? I've seen some people say that 1 is better.

>>1688764
>I've seen some people say that 1 is better.
Unles they are comparing it to 3 I don't see how that would be true.
2 was actually criticized for being RCT1.5, it's all that 1 is and more.

>>1688753
Yeah, the Giga's station I made like a year ago. Might restyle it later.

>>1688764
You're gonna want to get 2. 1 has better scenarios but the scenarios have all been remade as accurately as possible in RCT2 already, so there's no reason to get rct1 if you can only afford one game.

>>1688773
>>1688779
Guess it was just shitposters on /v/ then. Getting 2, thanks.

>>1688783

I'm absolutely stumped as to what to do for the Hexa-Park collab. Does anyone want to trade slots? I'm just holding up the line at this point.

>mfw watching that timelapse guy's Dynamite Dunes video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WHHFkjvHtY

You can just tell it's going to be a mess from the first 5 seconds.

Why is Diamond Heights so perfect? This angle in particular gets me all giddy and nostalgic.

>>1689006
Probably because
a) it looks like a real park
b) it's open from the start

>>1688994
>double-wide paths in RCT
>ever

>>1689014
It's not even that that pisses me off.

It's how he places the Twist at the start: right in the corner of the park next to Dynamite Blaster.

No need.

>>1689028
He starts out at the very ass-end of the park.

Check this coaster out. Also, name suggestions?

What do you bros listen to as you play.

I listen to Free Beer and Hot Wings

>>1689190
I wish RCT2 had a mute button so I could play music off my comp

>>1689190
I listen to Let's Plays or let Netflix run. I find it weird to construct in silence or listening to music. I like hearing people talk, especially soothing voices.

>>1689207
You can mute it by right clicking your speaker icon and hitting sound mixer and finding RCT2 when its running

>>1689209
>>1689190

lets plays mostly.

I also like having Rifftrax or mystery science theater going

>>1689229
Retsupurae makes for a nice compromise between the two.

>>1689231
oh yes they're great

>>1689190

Sometimes I'll watch a show on my second monitor, but most of the time I'll just run whatever spotify playlist or radio I feel like.

Today I was building roller coasters to the soothing sounds of Snoop Dogg.

Building Steeplechases is fun

>>1689190

i normally watch streams or have TV shows in the background

>>1689190
I have a huge collection of VN's soundtracks that are really soothing.

Well, it's not like you'd have to clean it up. You could just leave it on the floor until you want your house rating above 700.

thanks 2hu
I guess I'll check the tumblr

>>1689557
for the love of fuck you don't even use queue lines!

>>1689557
I'd suggest you add some scenery to that roller coaster so it doesn't look all naked

>>1689557
>No banked turns

r8 my station.

Also, bonus points for anybody that gets the reference in the name, other than that the park is Windy Mountain.

>>1689571
Architecture/10, I like the single theme.

>>1689571

Shit, I posted the stats for the inverted coaster, not the wooden one.

Both names are references though. Here's what I meant to post, with a different angle of the Woodie's station.

>>1689557
Use queue line paths on the entrances. They look like this. This allows guests to line up for a ride, and you can decide the maximum line length using queue line paths.

Queue line paths should only be used on entrance lines, since they're more limited than regular paths and might confuse guests.

it'd be nice if there could be a scenery schematics thing in openrct where you can select an area of scenery to save and paste it rather than having to do it through rides

also they need to fix the selecting tthing to be like the bulldozer tool so you can select a lot at once, and then use the single select to unselect stuff you dont want

making 10+ excitement woodies is hard. ive gotten one ride over 10, with a loop, scenery, and water, but i dont feel like ive won. the ride looks like shit, and loops have no place on a true woodie IMO.

im glad that after all these years playing my favorite game, i still cant beat my own personal "final boss."

one day though, once i do this, I hope chris sends me a letter in the mail. all it is, is an autographed head shotof him saying "great work champ" or something equally cheesy yet endearing.

>>1689601
Personally anytime I make a good ride entrance building that I could recreate and add on to while making it something new, I just make a small tracked circle ride to save that quickly, and then replace that ride with whatever i'm actually going to use. This way you can have basic building skeletons and scenery is much more manageable.

>>1689610
Once you get better at making woodies it's about as simple as making a dueling one, or putting another ride very close. Scenery or not usually this about does it. But there's really no point in making a ten excitement woodie in my experience, as the added drops and length make it so it's almost always an incredibly intense ride.

Try a dueling one, I guess, that might be easier to still get a relatively low intensity score.

>>1689614
>>1689610
Don't forget putting a building around the station, and a few shops/stalls and maybe a tunnel or two.

With love, from /pol/

>>1689621
About that, if you put a tunneled section under shops and stalls, does that actually increase the excitement even further? I think I remember seeing an old webpage with excitement tips that said that, but i'm not sure

>>1689614
>>1689621
yes, yes, these stratagies are known. i just want to bang out a woody with 10 excitement in the coaster creator, no scenery, no water, no adjacent rides. i hope its possible.

>>1689626
It'd be hard to actually test that. I think placing the shops nearby is good enough. I clump them by the station.
I know the page you're talking about. http://www.rctmart.com/fossil/CoasterTips1.html

Also, rate the woody I put up in my park. Tried to make it compact.

>>1689632
Not that I know of, but keep on trying.

>>1689624

>>1689636

I love that element of the track where it comes up steeply, goes into a right downwards turn and a right upwards turn so it's a 90 degree turn, and then goes into another steep drop.

trim brakes/10

>>1689665
Holy crap I was wondering what track piece that was. I've never seen that used mid ride as opposed to out of the station and applied correctly to the ride, very nicely done.

Would ride

>>1689636
stop it
I want to design a good woodie now
I hate woodies

>>1689557
No offense, but you really should look at the in-game tutorial because you don't even have some of the basics down. Not trying to insult you, we were all there at one point.

How long do you guys run your parks?

I'm pushing 25 years on Forest Frontiers so far

I only switch when I get bored of the landscape

I want more forest/green maps with some nice hills (think evergreen gardens but with a better layout)

>>1689723
I've got 25 years on A Gorillian Dollars.

>>1689723
I usually run my parks until the best ride i've made so far is almost inoperable, then I usually put that in a separate folder which I only use to look at old designs and use 8cars for things other than landscaping on so those rides will be alive forever.

I save the ride designs too, but it kinda means something to me to save the entire thing, even if the rest of the park has been changed, that one "premier" ride will always live on this way.

I think I do this becase as a kid in RCT1 I mostly played dynamite dunes, and i'd always recreate the mine coaster when it became run down, because it made me feel bad to see it have to go.

>>1689723

my lunaland omega is close to 30 years, but i recently made a shit load of food/drink stalls, and i hit the RIDE/ATTRACTION limit.

these peeps are going to have to walk a lot longer to get some food or they can fuck off, ive got coasters to build

>>1689734
what is the ride limit? 150+?

>>1689736
in this save i have "255" rides and attractions and it wont let me build any more rides or stalls. i ignored bathrooms and food for a very long time, as i used the scenario as a live sandbox of sorts. in the last few years i got fed up with the constant alerts about hungry and bathroom needy peeps, so i made my park a wonderland of food and comfort. Then i was told i couldnt make anymore shit. But i could delete a single space bathroom, and then place a gigantic rollercoaster.

openrct pls help

>>1689760
dont drink and post. here s the pic

i think i did a pretty comfy job idk

>>1689774

damn i love that turn that goes right under the station, comfy as fuck

RCT1 or 2? I remember playing the first one back in the 90's but not the second. GoG is having a summer sale so they're both -75% off.

>>1689781
RCT2 is generally agreed to be the better of the two, if you can only afford to get one of them. The only drawback is that the default scenarios suck, but that's remedied by fucktons of user-made scenarios and the RCT1 scenarios have been remade as accurately as possible for RCT2.

>>1689787

Ah -75% discount only applies if you buy all three of them at once and RCT3 doesn't look very interesting.

is there like a mod/hack for RCT2 to make it so guests have to pay entrance and ride fee like in RCT1?

>>1689190
Spotify to the rescue.

>>1689762
I remember my first time attempting Lunaland. What a fucking trainwreck.

>0 park rating

What did you do?

>>1688358
Rip in pieces

>>1689845
Shitty pathing layout.

This is actually the fastest way to beat it. You can spend half a billion dollars on a giga coaster and it will only add $30k to your park value. A simple Twist adds $7k. You'll be there forever if you try and beat it by normal standards.

Is it possible to get a park rating over 999?

>not putting the information kiosk on a corner

>>1690195
Presuming that you just started the series the other day, I'd say that is bretty gud.

And like >>1690212 said, put the kiosk in a corner with at least 2 points where people can reach it.

>>1690241
Lunaland Omega. its a great map for having early inspiration and hope, only to lose it all in anger and frustration as time goes by
>>1690245
well shit, i already typed this. also why is the captcha not numbers

>>1690195
Some more tips: Be sure to uncheck the "mow grass" option on handymen, they're far better off sticking to paths.
Always put a bench or two at the exit of a rollercoaster, guests like to sit down after intense and nauseating rides. They sit down to recover and it helps reduce path messes.

Also, put the information kiosk where the dolphin fountain is... it'll make more money.

Other than that, the park looks better than before.

whoever gave approval for RCT3 to be like that needs to be shot

RCT1 was my child hood game.. I played some of it over the past Spring Break for nostalgia. Here's Arid Heights after 5 years..

Looking back through my save files from that week, it hurts to say I was doing it only to get the new scenarios. I might post more screenies , but only if they're decent

>>1690713
Upon further review of the purple coaster in the bottom right...


I never liked that coaster type, just for the record. That's like the 10th time that happened.

>>1690709
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rosVVQn7E8Q it can be great, with lots of custom scenery

>>1690597
u wot m8

>>1690724
It looks like a design flaw to me. That much straight and level track after a short lift and a 5-foot drop seems to stall some rides, like side-friction coasters and waterslides.

>>1690861
Agreed, I have a bad habit with steeplechases as well.

>>1690854

any idea what I could put in place of this chopper ride?

I bought rc1 awhile back but It doesnt work with windows 8. Downloading rc3 right now. From this thread it seems to be shit tier compared to 1-2. confirm or deny?

>>1690915
confirm, sorry man.

I haven't played RCT2 since I was like 12, and I was always shit at it, I've been browsing these threads for about two weeks and I decided to finally start it up once again.
Everything's going pretty well, but I have a few questions:
Is there a way to make all the rides of the same type have the same price without having to go one by one?
If a ride has too many people in line, should I reduce the queue line or make it have less cars or make it shorter?
How many workers is the optimal amount?

>>1690925
what makes it so shitty?

>>1690951
>Is there a way to make all the rides of the same type have the same price without having to go one by one?
Ride prices are manual, but have the same default price. You'll probably end up changing it from the default, though.
>If a ride has too many people in line, should I reduce the queue line or make it have less cars or make it shorter?
This one depends. A high-capacity rollercoaster can use a long line, while a low-capacity ride, like a merry-go-round needs a shorter line. You can use entertainers and queue line TVs to keep guests occupied while they wait.
Ride efficiency is something to consider when building a custom ride. Some rides benefit greatly from more train/cars, like log flumes, so if your log flume has a massive line, add more boats.
>How many workers is the optimal amount?
General rule of thumb is one mechanic per rollercoaster, handymen should be set to patrols. A handyman patrol depends on where the litter is. An area with food will need a handyman. High-nausea rides need to have a handyman patrol too.
Security guards should be put anywhere where vandalism seems to pop up.

so I put a maze and souvenir area inside of the dirt house, and I've started balloon pollution as one last "fuck you" to the idiots that bought houses behind an amusement park

>>1691018
Thanks man!
I have one last question, I have a lot of people saying they are sick, I already have a shitload of benches outside rollercoasters and a few first aid things, is there a better way to alleviate the problem?

>>1691052
maybe there's something about your rides that is making people nauseous

post pics of park

>>1691052
That's generally the best solution, really. Also as >>1691057 said, screenshots are appreciated.

>>1691057
>>1691064
I'm sorry, I fucked up, I got the objective and quit the park without saving it.
But now that I think about it, it was a convulted mess all around, nearly all the empty space was filled with rides or stalls.
Also, all the rollercoasters were on one side and the easier ones were all clumped together on the opposite side, maybe that was the problem?

I guess I'll just keep playing till I get a hand on it. Thanks for the help.

>>1690915
try running rct1/2 in windows 98 compatibility mode with visual themes disabled. works for windows 7/vista.

>>1691052
Reduce using parts of coasters that can make high nausea (Like mosts inversions and helixes). I'm not saying that inversions are bad, but using too many can be overkill and cause a shitload of nausea.

Also stay away from high nausea roller coasters and rides in general. These include Space Rings, Stand-Up Roller Coaster, Heartline Twists, Inverted, etc.

Thoughts on the station on my collab park so far?

>>1691141
cute

>>1691141
i like all of it except the roof. unfortunately i cant do anything better so i dont know what to suggest

Something is causing error trappers on this file.

>>1690595

>it still got above a 1 excitement rating

The difference five feet makes. I made one hill five feet taller than it was before and this was the change.

Also still trying to figure out this roof.

>>1690195
>The Junior Coaster in RCT2 doesn't have the steep slopes
This bugs me way more than it should.

>>1691207
this is a great example of why i love this game. chris and company put some effort into it.

>>1691141

i like the combination of a sloped roof and a flat one. where did you get those wooden doors?

i think im doing ok so far. the empty tunnels on the right are the 'hidden pathway' to the temple on top.

>>1691270
It's a custom piece of scenery that came with the hexacollab park. I think it was causing error trappers so I stopped using them

Fridolin, you added the wrong custom oak tree to the collab park template. You can't color that one.

>>1691271
only suggestion I would make is a change to the coaster to lower lateral G's, the scenery around it is perfect though, and I like the creative use of pathing in the hidden tunnels and that bridge to the island.

comfy/10

I never even knew this was possible.

I failed you, /vr/

>>1686841
Yeah I've kept it updated up til a month or so ago, but the OP seems too lazy to change the General text. Got caught up in other things and haven't been paying attention to the thread as much. It'd be helpful if everyone could dump everything they make into a dropbox-like repository for me to collect.

>>1691697
What's that? Not enough, too pricey or bad selection.

>Working on scenery for a coaster
>crash
>no auto-save

Suffering.

>>1691912
After one crash, a thousand guesses and laziness, here is my first attempt towards a theme that I had in mind for this park. Along with the coaster it habits.

The buildings contain helixes which are around 3-4 levels, with the station in the warehouse-thing.

>>1691963

And there goes that, Haven't saved it...

>>1691963
how did you manage to crash a coaster in RCT3?

>>1691971
My GPU is a strange case. Here's exactly what I mean with it, if I don't fail cross-boarding this time.
>>>/g/42480249

>>1691141
do something with the negative space on the top of the roof and i think it would look great

>>1691974
Oh. I thought you ment the coaster crashed.

>>1692001
I doubt you can do that without doing it deliberately, to be honest.

But yeah, I still don't know the source of these crashes. I suspect it being on a hardware level, which I unfortunately think will cost quite a dime.
Too lazy to open up the laptop to check though.

>>1691963
>>1691968
Downgrade your drivers.

>>1692014
I'll see if that can help, but I won't be crazy enough to try every one on the list.

>>1692017
I'm on Windows 7 and have been using 314.22 since it came out, so try that one.

>>1692086

Found this on r/rct. Guess this is a thing.

>>1692089
i dont get it

the only bad things about rct2 is the removal of mixing what supports you want with what path type, and not including the terrain pieces that looked like buildings (stone brick & rusty metal walls, ground that looks like roofs)

>>1692094
"jail"

>>1692098
yeah, but jail would be a place to put guests as a punishment. not a place that they willingly que for. its dumb

Why isn't it working.

I thought you could stack them ;_;

>>1692229
>Why isn't it working.

*Why isn't it working?

>>1692229
Yeah, I made a sweet ass duelling wooden coaster with stacked stations.
Was incredibly disappointed to find that it doesn't work for whatever reason.

>>1692086

>>1692097
Are there really only four vertical wall paints in RCT2? I knew I remembered more but if they're only in RCT1 that makes sense.

>>1692430
RCT1 had more. But to compensate, most of the vertical face textures are scenery walls in RCT2.

Trying to download the collab park, but my internet is being too slow to handle the SSL connection to the email provider.

Never, ever, get Hughes Network Systems as an ISP.

This is dumb, but do I put the park in scenarios or saved games?

well, i managed to get a woodie to extreme excitement. obviously it took every trick i know to raise that high. Ignore the looping coaster, its just there to provide a boost, it doesnt even complete the loop.

unfortunately i really dont like the look of the woodie. its just a mess. i dont like having a loop on the ride either, but as of yet im not good enough to get high excitement without one.

>>1692653

>>1692667

Okay, guys I put the collabpark in Saved Games and it didn't work. Upon opening it, it gave me an error message the first attempt, and the second time just crashed me to desktop.

>>1692736

those are some nice buildings, i especially like the roof pieces you used for the building with a sign

>>1692823
Try downloading the map itself from the templates and open it.

>>1691271
The color of the ride is perfect, this is very neat

>>1692838

Which one is the map, and am I dumb for asking if I should have had that installed the whole time?

>>1692960
It actually worked fine for me when I downloaded the map, but maybe you should open the template first to install the custom scenery.

>>1692981

Okay, I did that and the template worked just fine, but I'm still getting an error message with the save game

>>1693001
>>1692981

"Unable to load file, file contains invalid data."

>>1693009
Should I re-send it?

>>1693021

Yeah if you would please. At this point I can't think of anything other than a corrupt file being the cause.

For some reason, a few of the scenarios in the /vr/ pack don't work right either, so I don't really know if my game has an issue maybe.

Sorry for the clusterfuck.

Works perfectly, thanks!

I nearly spit iced tea all over my laptop when "Bill Murray is on [ride]" popped up.

I'm thinking a pirate theme.

Trying out NO RESTROOMS ALLOWED.

>>1693082
>T-shirt stall
kek. Good luck. I'm trying out Vidya Valley. May Amplify's designs guide me to victory, for that scenario would be impossible otherwise.

Any mods that put the RCT1 vehicles in RCT2?

>>1693116
I downloaded one of the showcase parks on nedesigns that had the spinning cars from RCT1 added in. That said, they were their own individual ride on Virginia Reel track, so it's clear the only good use you'd get out of them is with hacking/merging.

Get it?

>>1693162
Never played World of Warcraft, but I guess it's because the experience gets better and better until it peaks, then it just drops like a bomb?

How is that NOT exciting as fuck?

>>1693180
Probably because you immediately break to 45mps, round the turn, slow down to 18, go over those hills and then ride the chain back

>>1693183
Good point. He should make the ride even shorter by placing the station on the other side of the loop. Also, by having people walk to the peak so there's no liftovator

>>1693191
And then start with a power launch full speed ahead captain

Here's what I've got so far on the Collab Park.

Calling this area Pirate Bay obviously, but what kind of coaster should I put in?

I'm thinking a Mine Coaster, but I also want to put either a Rapid Ride or a Log Flume in, and both would occupy the cliffs, so I'm not too sure on space. Maybe a mini coaster could be good over in one of the flat areas.

>>1693195
regular inverted or the compact inverted coaster
over water, those things would be trippy as fuck

>>1693204
Seconded on the inverted type. Cool stuff on the ground should be seen bonus points for clipping a boat

>>1693101
Amplify didn't make those designs.

>>1693212
My apologies, I thought he did the quad boats.

>>1693218
No, I uploaded it for him cause he had the biggest hard on for it.

>blew $10k on landscaping in one month
finance manager isn't gonna be happy

>>1693224
Fair enough. Either way his boats are the only way to beat that fucking level.

>>1693226
Either way, I'd like someone to try and attempt it without using my boats.

>>1693209
>>1693204

Inverted something it is.

That's a really good idea, actually.

Other rides I'm thinking about are a launched freefall/rotodrop named Cannonball, a log flume/river rapids, a mini coaster, a mine coaster, and an inverter ship.

>>1693226
>>1693229
I has an idea

Scamrapids

see if there's a design that gives good stats and has high boat capacity (8x per boat).

double dip on ride admission and on ride photo

>>1693232
did you design your entire area like that lagoon/beach?

It would be awesome to have a medium sized map like that, with some beaches and hill/cliffs to build on

>>1693238
Ride photos don't count towards ride tickets. They're merchandise.

And I indeed have tried it.

Just bought this game on GOG. Noticed that when I win at the end of October, the month skips to March of the next year. I think my game is skipping to March at the end of October during normal gameplay in general. Any idea how to fix this?

>>1693252
That's intended

It's "Theme park season"

your park is "closed" from november to february

What's the master race monorail height?

2 blocks above your paths or 3?

Is my scenery too obnoxious?

open it up (put it in the blue circle area and use scenery like what I circled in yellow in between the lines

Lots of go-karts. Lots and lots of go-karts.

>>1693243

Yes, I built that all. I've always wanted a piratey themed beach map, but I'm really awful in the scenario builder.

Here's the coaster. It's a bit too intense, but the queue is completely full, so I'm just gonna roll with it.

Queue is a weird word.

If it's the classic scam kart design, I'll give you my house.

>>1693378
What's the classic scam kart design?
Also, why you people call them scampoles? I can't seem to make much money from them.

>>1693378
Actually, it's this design with a full length station and three laps.

>>1693390
There you go. More people equals more money. Longer track means more excitement or if space is an issue, more laps means reduced excitement. I still don't understand why people don't make all their go karts with a full station.

Case and point, scam karts are fucking stupid. Don't use them.

It works very well as long as the food/rides are open. Otherwise guests get "lost" because they're not encountering them.

It's great because it leaves room for scenery, but on a side note I'm using a park with two entrances so the "long" paths lead to each one

>>1693530
No, no they're not.

>Investment
You can get an investment back on a scam kart in just under a year or with a full station in about 3 months.

>Time
Irrelevant if you're using ride designs already saved.

>Space
A swinging inverter ship takes up 4 less tiles and makes 4 times as much money. Scam karts are useless.

Pretty much done with my section of the Collab. Park rating and layout necessitated that I do this, though.

>>1693637
If you have room and a looping or corkscrew coaster...make a powered launch/reverse incline ride called "walk the plank" and have it stop/roll back just over the water's edgd

So I thought I'd give it a try again. and I end up with this.

Maybe I should try a scenario instead.

It's not dangerous, but it is uncomfortable.

>>1694629

>>1694597
That looks like modern art

>>1694718
I rode one of these coasters IRL, it's basically an inverted wild mouse, and pretty shitty. (At least the one I've been on.) the drops were weird and the curves unpleasantly rough.

What's your guys opinions on Suspended Monorails?

Normally I'd just use the regular one, but I'm doing Twin Palm Beach, and the Suspended ones have a more tropical air to them I feel.

Are they a huge hit in efficiency, or will I even notice?

>>1694768
Built it with a modern style in mind, yes.

Too bad it's bland, but it was something built up rather quickly.

>>1694796
Transport rides always seem to get more trains than they really need.

>>1694807

Yeah, I usually run one train per station on transport rides so I can evenly space them out and not have multiple trains stacked up waiting on people.

Plus, it builds character for the peeps to wait in line.

r8 my woodie

>>1694950
>those stats

noice

I'm not a fan of that first turn after the lift, or maybe just it having no supports, the flyby seems like it needs a slightly higher roof but it's hard to tell without seeing the train going through it

But it's pretty damn good as far as I can see, i'd give it an 8/10, simple, clean and effective.

>>1694950
SUPPORTS
WOODIES NEED SUPPORTS

Also flyby roof is too low. Ditto for the small building near the main one.

>>1694950

7/10

Could definitely use space more efficiently and provide a longer ride with some more twisty turny sections near the main hill.

Stations look good though.

ALSO SUPPORTS.

>>1694624
>that retarded cobra roll
>not tuning launch speed to crest the hills at less than 1g for more air time

We rename it and add a seventh slot.

>>1695016

>>1695135
>>1695152
Fuck they found the secret middle square

>>1695747
How?

>>1695980
I'm going to try making this by merging tracks. I'm thinking mini-rc base with mouse for the turnaround at the top and something vertical for the lift hill (with a powered launch substituting the lift). I'm guessing I'll need to do zero clearance to get the lift hill inside a small helix. Will that give graphical glitches in this case?

>>1696039
Probably.

i finished up another coaster design. i should probably force myself to build something half the length next time, i went a little crazy

>>1695958

i love those supports

>>1696039
Well, I can't find the guide I found in the past and I apparently did the merges wrong because rct crashed when the car hit the merged track. The result was rather unattractive anyway, so I'm not going to try again.

>>1695958
I wish we had rollercoasters as tall as the US had. This is the highest rollercoaster in my country, it's about 47 meters high, and also made by Intamin.

>Goliath x25
>Superman:The Escape from Unoriginality

>>1696209
In the same park as that particular Goliath there's a launched roller coaster that used to be named Superman the Ride. But the license the park had from Warner Brothers (?) expired and they had to rename the ride. Now they named it... Express.

>>1696209
It's worse than element named rides of yore.

>>1696213
Xpress actually, and it's in Walibi Holland(been there several times, Xpress being the first coaster I've been on in my life)

It's too bad I cannot recreate the launch segment in each of the RCTs, it would be awesome if I could.

I've to say though the Robin Hood still stays the comfiest, and the Goliath is worth the dime.
I don't know about the newest addition; the "Speed of Sound" however, saw it but never rode it.

Anyhow, thanks for bringing back inspiration.

>>1696220
>and its in Walibi Holland too*

>>1696220
Speed of Sound is just an old, rebranded coaster. It was called Via Volta or something before. It's also nothing special IMO, just a standard shuttle coaster.

>>1696227
Yeah, There was also the El Condor which i'd never go on.

>>1696220
>cannot recreate the launch segment
Use 8 cars to hack the lift chain speed and use a straight flat segment as launching track.

>>1696232
Really? I liked that one. It's not really more scary than the Xpress is.

>>1696239
Can you use rides like that, after you've built them, without the trainer running?

>>1696240
I guess it's just my gut, it gains weight as I even think about going on one.

>>1696245
Yes. The game checks the allowed values when you use the buttons in-game, not when you change the values in memory or when the ride runs. If you save such a design, you'll need to rehack it when you plop it down, though.

That reminds me, the fact that station wait times arent saved irks me. I perfectly tune my block section timings in the designer and they just go away unless I record them manually.

Fucking corkscrews not having banked spirals. Why, Chris?

>>1691591
>the large number of games that do this

how fucking lazy can you be game devs

>>1696249
That's pretty neat.
I do wonder why Chris Sawyer didn't add a launch track element for certain coasters, though.

>>1696316
In their defence. The standard glass walls work just fine and there are also custom transparent pieces that work properly, just not many.

>tfw closed RCT, didn't save
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>1696319
Well, there's the launched lifthill for the Twister Coaster

>You can't put walls/fences on the same tile as a path in RCT3
Holy shit that's the largest flaw I encountered so far, so annoying.
