What's the hardest you've derailed?

is there a file I can edit that changes the default prices of stuff? sick of increasing it every time

So is there any server for Orct2 multiplayer?

>>2743565

>>2743568

am i supposed to get these warnings when i start openrct2? the game launches and plays fine but i wanted to ask here before i made an issue on github.

>>2743654
I dunno what it means and it doesn't happen to me. Mine stops after listing the time.

>>2743654
Warnings are no errors. So just ignore them as long as everything works.

>>2743654
>c1 = 32640, expected 32640
>c1 = 734400, expected 734400
Unless math magically changed where x =/= x, then it's nothing.

You know why I want every browser to support WebP? Because then RCT screenshots will download faster. :)

I made this a while ago and forgot about it. I meant to improve it but haven't. Mostly I was testing trainers / cheats, which I never used in RCT2.

I shopped in a screenshot of the train going down the hill, because I didn't realize I screenshotted the train at the most boring part of the ride.

>>2743762
wtf is this thing

>>2743762
It looks kind of ugly, unpleasant and rather boring tbh

>>2743565
>>2743581
what is this

>>2743762
With the exception of two corners this thing is entirely u-turns, most of which go left.

>>2743826
Berserk mode

>>2743565
delete this

>>2743980
Why?

>>2743565
>>2743581

>>2743762
>powered launch into lift hill
for what purpose

>>2744339
maybe it's a low power launch and the lift hill carries it

Here's another looping coaster inspired by Herr Achterbahn.

>>2744539
damn anon this is absolute sex

>>2744539
It looks sooo good. Way better then all the crap people make with those OpenRCT cheats.

okay, I'm losing my mind here
Is there any not supremely convoluted to play rct1 or 2 on android? This game is fucking MADE to be played on a touchscreen but it seems I have to install a dos emulator so I can install windows on it so I can then install the game on it while fucking about with virtual drives which don't mount and poorly explained steps which don't work
fuck I know that because of the way this game was written it's not easily portable but it just boggles my mind that transport tycoon made it in some form and rct didn't
rct4 obviously doesn't count.

>>2744539
Hot damn, that is one fucking amazing coaster! Could you please upload the track? I want it among my prebuilts!

>>2744630
Here it is. I built it with the loop in a small trench, so it will be raised slightly on flat ground.

rev up those parks

>>2744539
>putting exit far away from entrance

6/10, -4 for not enough jewry

>>2744339
I do that sometimes. The corkscrew coaster for example (IIRC) has a max launch speed of like 25 mph so it's just a trick to make the time before the first drop a little shorter.

>>2744789
But he's got it set up like a lot of real coasters would: the queue has really nice vantage points of the coaster so you always have something to look at while in queue.
Only thing I'd suggest would be to use the green queue so it blends in more.

Is there a way to save the scenery props and walls with the coaster design?

>>2745178
If you hold LMB on the button to save a coaster, you'll get a dropdown menu with an option to save ride + nearby scenery

If you mean in the coaster designer scenario, nope

>>2745217
Okay, now for the second part, how and what gets determined to count towards the saving? Terrain changes? Floor tile? Radius?

>>2745219
not sure what you mean, there's just a limit to how many objects you can select. trees/fences/walls/paths/buildings, whatever. Like, 500 pieces or something like that. It can't save terrain, you have to do the terrain manually each type you wanna place the ride.

The default radius is within 2 or 3 of the ride but you can select things far away manually. It's not very accurate if you use the "nearby" picker thing so it's best to use that in combination with manually selecting stuff.

>>2745226
Ah I see. Sucks it won't save terrain stuff like a hill tunnel or something.

>>2745241
>that entire park
what the fuck is going on

>>2745418
i tried chairlifting people into the park but they just wander around one square so i killed them
lots of ride splicing too
i don't know what's up with the paths though

I'm a bit of a newfag. How do I play custom scenarios? I read through the links in the pastebin and couldn't find anything. I moved the files into my scenarios folder and they don't show up in game.

>>2745638
You're moving the .sc6 files to your scenarios folder, correct? And then checking all of the tabs in game looking for it?

>>2745638
just double click on the scenario file and rct will start up and install it, it will then show up in whatever difficulty tab it was made to be in

>>2747653
Not a clue. It's possible it could, though, since the dev is supposedly coding everything from scratch

>>2747658
Oh, sweet. Might have a use for it then.

>>2747637
Huh. Shows how often I lurk that other certain forum.

>>2747661
It's a big clusterfuck atm. The dev got suspended, then evaded it to post video proof, and that account got banned, and the thread was locked until the original suspension was up.
So who knows if he'll even go back to post about it.

>>2747665
The whole subforum is a clusterfuck it seems imo.
Is there an official forum for the source code he uses? Maybe he'll post it there.

>>2747678
As far as I know gbatemp is the only place he posted it at

>>2747650
I liked it. We should have a competition to build something Star Wars related around release date.

Fug, these threads are back? It's been 2 years since I checked. Any of the old guys still here? scj? Blueballed? Anyone? ;_;

>>2748508
rvnx was the one who was kicked off that collab for being too stubborn to change his coaster cause it was too shitty. If the archive was still alive I'd show you proof of the guy that said it.

>>2748510
Yeah, I know.

fucking germans, ruining everything sice 1935

>>2748508
It's so beautiful.

>>2748510
I didn't get kicked off, I left myself because I admitted my coaster was shit and I couldn't get into the whole no boundaries stuff. It also wouldn't be on the archive (I checked) since we discussed it in the Skype group. Really glad to see it got finished though.

9th May, 2013:
[09/05/2013 22:35:27] *** rvnx has left ***
[09/05/2013 22:38:07] Ridnarhtim: It's strange because I think most of what he's done in the other collab parks was good
[09/05/2013 22:38:17] Segfault: I honestly thought you kicked him out or w/e
[09/05/2013 22:38:26] Segfault: actually I don't know if this chat has a moderator or w/e
[09/05/2013 22:38:42] Segfault: yeah, I like rvnx's stuff
[09/05/2013 22:38:50] Segfault: like, besides what he did in this park
[09/05/2013 22:38:59] Segfault: now that I give it a non-cursory glance it's kinda bad
[09/05/2013 22:39:04] Segfault: in execution at least
[09/05/2013 22:39:43] Amplify: yeah it is a shame, because he was doing good parks everywhere else
[09/05/2013 22:39:50] Amplify: these he does that and calls it a day
[09/05/2013 22:40:08] Amplify: and no, I've not kicked him out, he was showing as online for me

[09/05/2013 22:40:17] Amplify: I'd assume he left in shame
[09/05/2013 22:40:34] Segfault: maybe he was just like "oh I'm still in here? lol" and quit

>>2748806
>/vr/ct is old enough to have drama

>>2748808
>>2748806
Oh well. Anyway, I'm happy it turned out good.

So how exactly does the multiplayer in ORCT2 work?

>>2748782
God damn, that looks comfy.

>>2749018
We have yet to find out because no one has made a /vr/ct server yet

>>2749670
there's really no point in making one now because of how often new updates come out for ORCT. Maybe once 0.03 stable comes out there'll be a few servers up all the time

anyone else suck dick at making b&ms

>>2749968
Make your first drop look like this.

>>2750289
Yeah I have that down but only after the chain part. I'm a sucker for Chain end -> down x2, up x1, barrel roll -> quarter loop/large half loop. It's hard to break away from that since it looks sexy.

Also, that was a stand up twister coaster. It seems like a pointless ride since it's almost exactly the same as a floorless coaster except it has worse stats. I gave up on it for now since I couldn't be bothered rebuilding the coaster. It's too intense because it's a single ride that's sync'd to itself, so it's too big I think. Have to split it into 2 rides.

just bought Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 big box factory sealed for 5 bux. Should i open it and play it or is it worth anything?

>>2750343
>game in cyan swedish, finnish, norse and orange danish

It's not even old enough anyway. Go have fun with swimming pools and extended coasters.

Yea or nay

>>2750474
yea for concept, nah for execution.
Don't ask me how to do it, I'm a skilled master at building boxes and nothing else. I think maybe adding a bit to the top would help?

>>2750476
>tfw commie blocks for life

How's this for a WIP woodie? Already got E>I on it so i'm happy with the stats

>>2749727
Is there significant demand for a /vr/ct ORCT server?

I know a guy.

>>2750807
i'd love one

>5 mph lift chain

Why

>>2751174
Should be able to bump it to 8, no? Also why did you make that so long?

>>2751195
Sorry, I meant that the lift hill has to be super slow 5mph so the average speed is kept down so I could lower intensity. 10.01 was the lowest it would go to. I made it that long because there are too many people in my park now so I have to use 3 train coasters to keep the queue time good. Probably gonna delete it tbh, doesn't look too good and it's in a tight space where I couldn't do much. A twister coaster would be better so I could use launched lifts. I'm not too good at b&ms yet so I'm still learning what's right and wrong with em.

>>2751205
Post a screenshot of your ride.

>>2751334
>not naming it Space Elevator
One job, anon.

>>2751407
Scenery is bare because I was too tired to finish it. I'll probably redo it all tomorrow. Lift is 80ft high.

>>2751417
>10.01 is the lowest I can go
>screenshot says 9.81
9.00-9.99 is a great intensity to be at. Don't let any of the E:I ratiofags tell you otherwise, as guests will raise their tolerable intensity preferences overtime.

>>2751428
He cut two inversions out to get it lower,

>>2751428
Yeah I forgot to state that I changed it a bit. There were 3 or so more inversions after the first block section that was fucking the intensity up so I removed them and replaced them with steep ramps instead. Ended up having to redo some other parts of the coaster because it wasn't able to get to the first block brakes because it was too slow at that point - so I added the underground section by the water near the bottom.that comes out by the heart inversion by the brakes.

>>2751438
>>2751441
Ah. Intensity ratings of 10+ aren't too bad though. I have a coaster that's been running for about 13 or more years and it's arguably the only one that still gets full loads of passengers.

>>2751447
Yeah when I eventually got it to <10 the excitement didn't even go up I don't think. I believe most guest's intensity cut off point is 11 so I wouldn't have bothered if I had known the excitement gain was gonna be so little.

>>2750573
>geometric themed woody
Probably fun to ride at least

>>2748428
I mostly just lurk, havent been playing much lately

>>2750474
i'll give it an in between. it could use some improvement. I'd put a vertical sign on the front to fill the empty space. and I'd use some of the industrial scenery on the to to make it look like there's HVAC and other mechanical stuff going on in the building. Also fences around the roofs perimeter sometimes look nice.

y/n /vr/ct? I don't like the end but they are synced perfectly (off of test mode, at least).

So just how far along is OpenRTC?

Really it's just about coming up with a good contest idea and maybe post a picture to get some attention

>>2752635
How about everybody has to build a park centered around a spooky castle
Mite b cool

>>2752636
That's kinda precise, I think it'd be better to just restrict people to a specific area or amount of rides. More space for creativity that way.

>>2752636

>>2752641
http://strawpoll.me/5801012

Don't want to derail the spooktober discussion, but I wanted to ask something.

Moved recently from Spain (where I visited several timer PortAventura and at least 2 times Tibidabo (implying anyone knows the later)) to Germany. Can someone recompensed some good theme parks in Germany (if possible, some other than the obvious ones) that are worth visiting? Also, any parks in the NRW zone?

And while where at it, this is my first "serious" try at making a LIM.
r8?

>>2752703
I like your junior coaster more than the LIM.

>>2752707
That's probably cause it's one of the prebuild ones :P

I can't into spoopy

>>2752628
>hit Frido over on Skype until he does it
I never started a contest. I merely did the tables on the spreadsheet. Starting a contest is pretty much>>2752635

>>2752703
Check RCDB. Never been to any of those, but there are ride lists and pictures so you can make your choice.

>>2752462
Dunno, I can't read moon runes.

>>2752745
maybe use openrct night filter

is anyone making an openrct server?

>>2753018
Give me a guide on how to do so and I'll do it. I have 2 servers doing nothing at the moment.

>>2753042
Nevermind needing that guide. Found it on their GitHub. Will start on getting that up in a few hours.

>>2753048

Known bug. Wait a few seconds for it to update.

>>2752841
Thanks. There seem to be a couple of nice coasters around, but most parks are so small that I'm not even sure it's worth visiting them just for one coaster...

Also, butterflies everywhere.

>>2753123

You cheated, didn't you?

Is there a way to make go-karts not have crazy long lines? I've put it on continuous circuit mode and have a long station with 16 karts but it still manages to fill whatever queue I build for it.

Is there a dedicated server program for orct2?

I'm digging around, having a hard trouble finding one.

>>2753690
Never mind, I'm dumb.

/vr/ openrct2 server going up in the next few days, if I can manage not to blow everything up in the meantime.

Gotta see about a second IP address through my host -- I love /vr/ct and all, but I dunno about linking 4chan to an IP associated with my personal website, plastered with my name, locale and such.

>>2753734
Not in a position to test (pulling a late night to get coursework done), but I'll post results if I get something working.

So Frontier posted this dev diary about Planet Coaster on how guests are going to work and move around.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tyWUT0UsZE

Kinda interesting on how that is going to work out since I don't know of any games besides Sim City that actually take in to account traffic.

>>2747623

I've been wounder for a long time why there hasn't been many simulation games on handhelds. 3DS and smart phones are more than powerful enough to handle games from the early 2000s and back. Hell, we have XCOM on tablets now! I don't see why we can't even get Sim City 2000 on my smart phone.

>>2753508
yeah, im still pretty casual when it comes to this game. Gotta git gudder at building good looking coasters somehow

>>2748428
I mostly lurk anymore, can't seem to focus on anything anymore.

>>2748556
There are literally 3 Germans who are still around who finished the No Borders collab.

>>2754313
Speaking of all the germans in here, is it the engineering nationalism or something else?

>>2753881
Oy vey, can you do it without setting your house on fire yet, or are your temps still blowing trough the roof?

>>2754314
I sure like building things. Mechanics Electronics and a little bit of Software.
>>2753807
Not realy sure about that "every guest is a special snowflake" thing. It's one of the things I disliked about RCT3 and here it seems more prominent.

Question: IIRC Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 has the ability to import coasters made in RCT2; why has no one taken POV videos of the coasters they've made and posted them here?

>>2754475
Because according to /vr/ct, RCT3 is the spawn of satan and should be avoided at all costs

>>2754475
Because RCT3 looks like arse.

Sneak peek of new turbospooks

>>2754501
Filling big, empty spots with something that isn't a coaster is difficult for me ;_;

>>2754313
Germans are crazy when it comes to creating stuff in games. I have no numbers, but I'd go as far as saying Minecraft is more popular in germany than in the US if you go by % of gamers.

>>2750289
B&M not the only ones to use that technique. Arrow has predrop on several of their coasters (the ones that still stand anyway)

>>2754501

How night time?

>>2754889
OpenRCT2.

We should add something to the OP like:

>How are you merging tracks / playing at night / multiplayer / etc?

not mad or anything, it just gets asked a lot.

>>2754501
Night-time looks amazing.

>>2754972
I would like it a lot more if it didn't recolour the UI as well as the game. Makes it hard to see some stuff.

Little Arrow looper I built. Nothing special, but its popular. It rained, which is why the line is empty

The first RCTW beta starts next week today and ends on November 2nd. It focuses on the Coaster builder.

And they've triggered my autism by calling a inverted coaster a suspended coaster. Do the basic name research, Christ.

>>2755210
>Little

I like it but I'm not a fan of the pre drop turn. I would turn it into corner-slope drop into a non-steep slope which imo would flow in to the loops better.

>>2755320
Eh me either, but my inspiration was Carolina Cyclone and I think a lot of Arrow 4-inversion coasters have that turn

After a while of debug and look at the aur for openrct2, I have realized that it would be more viable to use docker for running an openrct2 server, as the dependencies are strange and the wiki on their GitHub for building it is wrong in some places (building the native way does require mingw, the wiki says otherwise) and missing some info in other spots (ubuntu install method is missing a few things).

I will be hosting in 4-5 hours, if anyone cares.

>>2755415
i very cares
can't wait

Is there any custom scenery related to this spookiness thing we're doing cause I think it would be fair if we all had the same tools to work with.

Compiling the Docker Docfile is taking a shitload of time, but it's working. It's almost done. I'll give it an hour max before it's done.

So is someone going to upload a sandbox for this spooktober thing or do we have to make our own?

>>2755768
Gorgeous.

I hope there'll be a torrent because I ain't putting money into this without playing it first. The PAX demo looked like it had some huge performance issues.

Why not just get the save game of this which I know exists somewhere, load the landscape in scenario editor and flatten it out to make a sandbox. That way all the rides and scenery are already selected.

>And they've triggered my autism by calling a inverted coaster a suspended coaster.
Outside of the RCT universe it's rather interchangeable, with some coaster manufacturers using inverted and others using suspended, but differentiating between fixed and swinging models.

But fuck Atari anyway. They probably did it on purpose.

In Mold's Junk Mountain in the 15x15 contest, he used terrain blocks as scenery. Does anyone have these pieces or know what scenery group it's in?

Newbie here
If I'm installing OpenRCT2, do I still need to apply the windower hack beforehand, or will it take care of all that for me?

>>2757934

No. OpenRCT2 has windowed.

Perfect, it's running like a dream without any colour issues.
Thanks so much, time to suck ass and make some box houses.

Guys, how do I get good at building coasters?

Everytime I build what I think will be a decent coaster it gets extreme and very high intensity ratings, so of course no one rides them. Can I get some basic design tips on how to get those ratings down?

>>2758043
stop building them too high if they don't need the speed to finish the track

always bank your turns

inversions are painful at high and low speeds

some coasters inherently have low excitement and high intensity

scenery, hills, underground parts and going over water increases excitement

90 degree turns at the bottom of a ramp is painful and gives bad Gs

Is there any reason why one of these mirrored tracks has double the other's stats?
I'm not complaining, it's just weird is all.

>>2758515
one is 3 meters longer than the other, perhaps <170m is a minimum cutoff point for stats

>>2758519
Doubt it, the tracks are identical and it has almost exactly double the other's stats. I could see it spiking at a certain value, but getting that close to double seems to coincidental.

>>2758529
Well, some rides require a certain track length else its stats are a fraction of what they would normally be, coasters included. It's the only thing that makes sense.

>>2757459
>What everybody wants
http://strawpoll.me/5801012/r

>Custom flat 100x100 map with pre-included custom scenery
That's what people want, possibly with a stipulation to include a castle of some sort and possibly also a focus on gentler rides.

>>2758515
I remade that in my game and got vastly different stats. There's obviously something wrong here.

>>2758043
just to make it clear: ALWAYS bank your turns

also, some coasters are always a little trickier to make exciting/not intense.

Giga Coasters are good for practice and you can almost never go wrong with twister/floorless ones

>>2758515

>>2758515
>>2758548
When I was making Big Air, I noticed that the stats would change depending on the orientation and mirroring of the track.

With Wild Mouse coasters, there is a point in which the stats will practically double. It seems that your ride had just the right conditions in which the change in stats due to the mirroring anomaly was sufficient to trigger the double.

>>2758867
>tfw rct2 crashes out of nowhere and every time you load your save it crashes after about 10 seconds every time and you can't figure out why

Is this spooky enough?

>>2760292

>>2760298
Green water just makes it look weird.

>>2760320
Hmm, I like it with the river but the pool at the top just looks off. Orange is better for sure.

and with that, I've turned Extreme Heights into a mess of impulsively-designed rides

now if only those last 500 guests would hurry up and arrive. I'm tempted to just trainer them in just to give myself closure

>>2760959
>>2760835
Could just have a hexacollab save going.
That would probably allow people to turn off disconnects since no one would be building around each other.

>>2761447
Nevermind. Screen randomly terminated
Now it's up

>>2761461
Anyone had luck building a tracked ride?

>>2761447
>server is kill

>>2761483
It crashes randomly, which scares me. Debuging the reason for that now.

>>2761482
nope

>>2761487
Crashed reliably whenever I tried to build a tracked ride.

>>2761489
So that's why it happened. When I did it, it just desynced me. Trigger it again. I got verbose logging on. I wanna see why it happens and if I can fix it somehow.

>>2761497
It desyncs when the server crashes. You keep playing, but it's singleplayer from there on.

>>2761505
What I mean by "just desynced" isn't that, but regardless, the test gave me nothing. Verbose logging doesn't see why the server terminates. I'm going to try to dig just a tiny bit deeper into this.

how do you know when it desyncs? i'm building a nice coaster and i don't want to lose it

>>2761523
Usually you get a pop-up.
But If you can't find pic related you probably are already desynced.

>>2761538
yeah i desynced, rip coaster

To all of you trying to get the multiplayer working, I just wanted to say, good luck. We're all counting on you.

Got a debugger. Join again and see if you can get it to crash from tracked rides again (Because I can't).

>>2761674
I didn't even get to select a ride this time.

Why not just update to the latest build and give it another try

>>2761682
That wasn't in vain as I was able to recreate the crash myself and found the problem. The process gets killed through a SIGPIPE signal.

>>2761692
Going to try this solely due to the clusterfuck of a build process I went through getting this build to compile, and I believe I need to set different compile flags anyway.

>>2761584

To all of you trying to get the multiplayer working, I just wanted to say, good luck. We're all counting on you.

>>2761802
i got in but it desynced when i tried to build a hyper twister coaster

>>2761812
The server crashed actually, and sadly.
I have an idea though. An idea so stupid, it just might work...

>>2761813
do tell

>>2761819
I'm going to play with the config.ini file and cmake options until either something works on until I'm tempted to make a bug report and hope they fix it quickly.
For now just keep trying to join and try to crash the server.

>>2761825
it doesn't like cheats outside of extra money

>>2761831
That makes sense.

Sooooo how does one join the server?

>>2761846
Download development build 1364 of OpenRCT2 and install it. There's a multiplayer button on the near the bottom-middle of the main menu.

server is kill again

>tfw 275ms ping

>>2761908
I know.

Shit's getting weird. The game knows when I am trying to crash it. On the plus side, I believe I found the culprit. It's either my dependencies are too low (arch uses higher version of a few packages and they saw everything works for them) or that I'm not specifying a git branch (It usually pulls most recent, but specifying one can reduce some error caused). Updating dependencies and re-compiling. I'm not giving up that easily!

>>2761923
try setting the priority to high or something

>>2761856
Do I need a map or anything?

Server guy, are you running on a homebox?

I have rackmount space, and I can stand something up if you'd prefer.

>>2761926
Even though that is possible on Linux, that won't really do anything. Your trying though, and at this point, it's all we can do.

>>2761937
Nope.

>>2761941
The problem isn't the server, it's with openrct2. It's somewhat poorly documented and there are bugs here and there. If I can somehow avoid this bug, then it can work.

>>2761942
could you also run an openTTD server for /vr/ and /n/ fags to play on?

>>2761947
I totally could and I would, but my focus right now is openrct2.

>mfw parkitect has alpine coasters

about to play rct2 for the first time. are there any major changes that you lot can save me the trouble of figuring out myself?

can i still do scam karts?

>>2762090
Changes from what, rct1?

>>2762090
what are scam karts?

>>2762097
yeah i only ever played rct1 and its expansions. only difference i know about is npc pathing on double wide paths actually works. and themeing is apparently much better.

>>2762101
when you fill your park with go kart loops that take up as little space as possible. they're by default really popular for some reason so they're decent money makers.

>>2762107
Motion sim spam and Jew mazes are also viable options. There is also the godly little 4x4 mouse coaster in the /v/ track pack (read the pastebin for it)

Honestly though a powered launch corkscrew coaster with only a half loop track piece is the best money maker since you can sync it

Try to join now.

Okay apparently also scenery crashes it. I won't go on anymore till the kinks are all fixed then.

Glad thay your putting a good effort though.

>>2762320
It's only some scenery that crashes the server. And thank you. I was actually looking forward to getting that server up after spending 3 days looking through their documentation on how to compile. Least we can do is make a bug report and maybe make a compiling on Linux pastebin. They REALLY need to fix their documentation.

I am on the server, time to make weird rides

>>2758542
I won't be able to do anything until Wednesday because of exams but the 2014 Spooktober bench was 100x100 (just clear the trees) with some custom scenery and enough pieces to create a castle. Are there any specific objects people want added/switched out from the 2014 bench or is it just a matter of putting together the competition (which I can do)?

People interested in a contest: any requests? Spooky/castle themed? Gentle/thrill focused or whatever? 2-3 week deadline or longer/shorter? Or should I make it a sp00ky surprise??

>>2762478
The problem is that the rollercoasters and all other track-based rides break everything in mp right now.

>>2762285
>Sherwood Forest
You can literally win that scenario by doing nothing and letting it run for a few minutes.

I'm going to type up here all the bugs encountered on the server that I found so far, so that way I can make a backtrace log and submit it on their repo tomorrow.
Bugs Encountered:
- Server crashes if any track-based ride is being attempted to be placed
- Some? scenery causes desyncs and crashes?
- Client desyncs if he picks up any person

Did you guys find any more?

Too extreme?

I...I t-think I messed up guys.

wheres a good place to get scenarios?

theres a lot of nice maps and stuff on nedesigns but they are all finished parks not the land map or scenario.

>>2762542
nedesigns also hosts a bunch of workbenches.

I'm already finished and it's anything but flat. I used the bench except swapped out some scenery for what I wanted. I don't even care if I'm disqualified.

>>2762552
So outside of workbenches there aren't a lot of pre made maps with very little to nothing to flesh out?

I can see a person being able to make whatever they want to workbenches but I kind of just want a random map to work with but not a finished park. It's hard to explain, I wish there was a map generator or something.

>>2763401
Like this?
It has been part of Open RCT2 for quite a while now.

>>2763513
oh shit, i really should upgrade to openrct2, that's really nice to have, thanks.

So I haven't played RCT2 in a long ass time. I'm looking into trying OpenRCT, but do I need both expansion packs? I only have Time Twister.

>>2753042
romdepot guy is that you?

>>2763794
Nope, all that's necessary is RCT2. Obviously you do need both expansions for some scenarios and rides in the /v/ pack however.

>>2763867
Hmm. Would it be worth getting the Triple Thrill Pack on Steam, then? I'd essentially be paying ten bucks for an expansion pack, but would it be worth it?

i'm quite in envy of you who can make an attractive ride and fun looking parks. i thought maybe i was good at this game at one point but i guess not.

Cyanon >>2764218 here again, on mobile but am looking for yall's input here.

So I've been thinking of using this inner area (pic related) as a greenspace, maybe with some shops on the open patch of grass. The theme of the park is part tech, part nature so I thought it'd fit nicely.

Here's what I'd like some feedback on:

>Should I cover the greenspace to make the entire area indoors, like a greenhouse or climate dome?

>Should I make an area off of it where the Launched Freefall is to be indoors, but have it stick out of the ceiling?

>How should I enclose the top of the lift hill?

>>2765940
>How should I enclose the top of the lift hill?
Maybe you could make a tall "control tower" looking building to cover it.

This is "Wrestle Kingdom", my first park that I really put a lot of effort into and built structures and what-not.

All the rides are named after wrestling moves and professional wrestlers, primarily New Japan Pro Wrestling.

Here's the overall view, let me know what you think.

>>2766271

Also, here is a close-up and the stats of my custom-built twin coaster, "Gun" & "Gallows".

Definitely proud of the stats and layout of this one, and it's themed after Bullet Club, which is a huge heel stable in NJPW. Any praises or criticisms welcomed. :)

>>2766272

Btw, any reason I get different stats on these two? They're literally the exact same track design with Gun being the original I built, and Gallows being flipped and mirrored, but yet I'm getting a pretty significant difference between the two, even ride time.

Anyone know why?
