>shit woodie.png

Carny checking in with more real rides to inspire your creativity. This is Comet II at sunset- Florida State Fair

Largest portable coaster currently traveling the United States.

Mite be taking a Gravitron for a spin later. First time as pilot.

The Moar You Know...
Gravitron and the Ring o'Fire (Super Loop) were both invented by the same man, one Walter House.

Lil B

Any reason why this shit isn't written in asm like the original?

>>3800071
All of Chris' games were written in assembly. If you're referring to OpenRCT2 it's because assembly is not portable across architectures and operating systems and there's little reason to write most things in assembly at this point.

>>3800079
But, m-muh speed

>>3800083
Dude, under assembly it utilizes 100% of cpu time regardless of what actually needs computed. On modern cpus thats just plain awful.

>>3800087
Also you can call asm functions from within c++ should something seriously need optimized.

>>3800083
Modern compiler chains produce optimized machine code that net the majority of the benefits of hand optimized assembly while still allowing you to write code in a language that's portable. It's also possible to use in-line assembly for hand tuning certain sections of code when necessary. Writing code in assembly is generally discouraged unless the code isn't expected to be ported to other platforms. Usually things like an OS kernel and/or drivers will have a high percentage of assembly code. User applications are usually high level code to simplify development. Chris is a madman so he just wrote it in straight assembly.

>>3800109
On top of that, being in C++ means any schmuck can fork the development, rather than only the most hardcore of Compsci autists.

>>3800131
Being written in assembly may have helped the OpenTTD and OpenRCT2 projects though oddly enough.

If it were written in a high level programming language the original source code would have just been lost forever. We could deconstruct the binary and make something functionality equivalent to the original but the source code would not be the same. Being written in assembly RCT was basically distributed with its source code mostly intact. It just had to be deconstructed, analyzed, and organized into meaningful parts.

>>3798940
The woodie looks good and the trackitecture is nice but I might suggest adding something to the top of the station so there's not as much white showing. I like the shops on the left side of the plaza but the ones on the right side are fairly flat along the path except for the aqua one on the end which is nice. Also it tickles my autism that the gray/green and cobble/tan paths don't line up at that intersection in the middle of the screen

>Largest portable coaster currently traveling the United States
Kinda sad, I really wish we had some traveling Schwarzkopf loopers like Europe

>>3799646
I spy a KMG Fireball over the furthest yellow tent, those are fun.

I wish there was a place for general amusement park discussion on 4chan. I always feel kinda weird talking about real rides on /vr/ct, like I'm taking away from the game discussion. I know that /co/ has threads about the Disney parks, but that's it.

>>3800280
You could try /trv/ but I'd say this is the best place.

>>3800703
>That random blue scaffolding with 2 bushes on.

Why do you build such an excellent coaster and then fuck it up with that lift hill.
Why.

>>3804549
like it's a shitty design but honestly stats-wise it's not much worse than an expertly-built standup

stand up sux, man

Not him but really? He's posting his work, how is that spamming?

>>3807174
And on the whole it's pretty impressive work, some silly decisions aside.

>>3807160
He's not even posting that frequently, the thread is just sitting idle for too long.

I recently got back into it after being away from the game for years.
Back when i was abusing the diamond heights setup.
Back when i just discovered you could even do super lifts.

It's such a waste of money but I never get sick of terraforming desert maps with grass. Feels too good.

>>3807639
I like desert maps but adding a small grassy oasis with a lake and some tropical plants really helps. Looking at sand and snow for too long really strains my eyes.

>>3800703
This image makes me wonder if there could be some sort of competitive theme park sim almost like some sort of different version of OpenTTD

Probably my favourite coaster only due to it taking me so long to make. It's in the scenario Cyclone City.

This one has an extra piece after the second loop, making the approach to go through it weird. Could fix the entire thing, but meh.
The first loop could be raised too mebe.
I like it ok.

Have a stormy post-teardown Comet II

Whoops

Here's a fun little custom scenery pack I'm working on. Anyone interested?

>>3815819
Looks cool as fuck senpai.

>>3815819
No.

I slapped this together inbetween sunny periods here in Tampa when I have to work. I just wanted a Swartzkopf with some nice high speed turns near the water.

Stats for GoldBreaker. I'm really happy how i was able to get every element I wanted to do in this layout without breaking the bank.

>>3800280
>KMG

I work on a Techical Park that makes Fireball look like a toy. "it doesn't do the loop? What is that, for babies?"

>>3815973
>>3815981
The hole after the first loop is a little deep and there's no break run but other than that it's a neat coaster.

>>3815981
>That UI
The fuck?

>>3816149
RCT Classic for Android and iOS. It basically combines RCT1 and 2 into one game

So I made this while trying to start a new scenario; thoughts and ideas?

>>3816320
What's the layout like under? Stats?

>>3816337
Here you go.

>>3799370

How would /vr/ct try to improve the Time Twister and Wacky Worlds expansions?

>>3818161
Make the scenery fit with the original game.

>>3816382
>>3816320
This thing must slow way down on those 3 colored hills. Would make me nervous.

>>3818161
I like parks that are already open and running when you start the scenario, especially when they have nice scenery. A lot of RCT2 parks are closed at the start or they don't have any prebuilt rides to attract guests so they just feel empty.

>>3818286
The scenarios where you have to save a failing park are way more fun than the sandboxier scenarios. If I want a sandbox, I'll play the sandbox.

Can anyone with RCT1 recreations check if their Crumbly Woods takes 20 years to finish? It's supposed to "start" from year 15 or something, but it starts from year 0 and has an objective of 20 in-game years.

>>3819747
negative

>>3819817
I have an old version. I wonder if updating will mess up my progress.

Fine, I keep seeing this thread. Time to re-install RCT2. Never messed around much with OpenRCT2.

>>3820260
>Never messed around much with OpenRCT2
You should. There's loads of new features and if you don't want new features it play just like RCT2 without most annoyances.

>>3820265
This is really nice so far. And the /v/ scenarios in the OP should keep me busy for a while.

I wanted to browse the last thread but 4chan lost all the old pics.

>>3819851
The OpenRCT devs created tabs in the menu for my recreations. I assume it goes by file name and sorts them accordingly. You might be using the inferior remakes by RCTScenarioLover. Try redownloading the mediafire link in the OP, I doubt updating scenario files will reset your progress.

Random question: What's the highest intensity rollercoaster you've ever made? Highest excitement? I remember reading a walkthrough years ago that said the highest excitement ride possible was the Go-Karts, and it was in the 20's. Excitement, not intensity. Never seen anything to back that up, though.

>>3820414
Intensity's easy to get. Excitement is a bit harder.

>>3820431
holy SHIT

>>3820440
The ride is literally so boring that the excitement underflows into the 655s

>>3818161
Have unique rides

>>3820414
Highest intensity somewher around 50 but that's not really interesting. Highest excitement without cheating *cough* QB Mac *cough* would be a Giga with about 11-12. 13+ Gigas have been posted in the thread.

>>3820414
>>3820552
I'm pretty sure we've pushed intensity into the 90s with our experiments in this thread. You can get splash boats to 13+ excitement as well but that tends to push their ride time over 4 minutes.

How do I track merge?

>>3820796
Build the two tracks up to each other, turn off clearances, and then build them a tile into each other. Both overlapping tiles must be the same for both rides.

>>3820805
how do I turn off clearances

Woah this is an extremely elaborate retro game? I tried playing it on my cousins supernentendo but it didn't work cause my cousins being a little dagger and kept it to himself, I'm so jealous of him he always gets the supernentendo all to himself while i just get to play with this stupid gaming laptop, I wish I could trade it for a quality super Nintendo so i could play your retro game, you know? Isn't this just great, just great. I said sarcasticly! This is far from "just great" this is absolutely Terible! Your map for your retro game looks so cool it has everything you could want in a retro game map, hills, grass, water. I mean whats not to like, I just NEED to figure this dang thing out please forward me a supernentendo rim of this game so I can play it when I sneak my cousins super Nintendo away from him when he's at school, I need to play the retro game maps with the water in the corner!
thanks brother

>>3820827

>>3820827
...Alright, I laughed.

>>3820414
I've discovered recently that most times the ideal ride is shorter than you'd think it needs to be. While it's fun to recreate The Beast (GOAT)it's really shorter more intricate rides like Gwazi (ctrl-f) that make the best use of the game's unique scoring system.

>>3820827

What could possibly go wrong?

>>3821124
Shorter rides also tend to look better when they use space more efficiently.

>>3821124
>Gwazi
I miss it so much...

>>3820414
After seeing some posts here I wanted to see the most fatally intense rollercoaster I could make without hacks was. After trying a handful of coasters, the highest I could get without land manipulation was the Vertical Drop.

So in a sandbox I was able to get it to a maximum height of 575ft and a minimum height of -30.

So a 605 vertical drop right into 4 unbanked tight turns at a speed of 134mph. Then a few short bunny hops to drive your shoulders into the restraints, two vertical loops, and unbanked turns into the station. I also put a brake section at the very end but it doesn't even feel it.

>>3821883
The important parts, mostly underground to build up as much speed as I could. I wish I had just lowered the land though so it was totally visible at a glance.

>>3821328
Very nice, but my autism is really upset about the fence not going all the way around the coaster.

>>3821887
>>3821883
With all of this, the highest I could get it using entirely legal mechanics was 33.14. I'm sure there's a way to drive it higher though. Didn't try any of the Wild Mouse coasters with land manipulation for max support heights. I could see that maybe being higher with it's hairpin turns.

>>3821183
I think it was RCT3 where I made a water slide where the boat went off a jump and smoothly landed back on the track. Even though it was a perfect straightaway the game made the boat fly off the track sideways and explode after landing.

>>3821183

>>3824968
Depends on your definition of cheating.

Do distances between rides - as in, walking distance for the peeps - matter in any way?

Would Evergreen Gardens have the same rating if I had the same attractions just by the entrance vs far apart?

>>3827476
That nausea stat is too low for a coaster called tumblr.

Is RCT Classic worth purchasing?

>>3827684
Yes.

>>3827684
Absolutely.

>>3826524
The layout follows very realistic lines for that type of ride.

How is my "country club"?

>>3829260
Add some depth to the water and it's pretty nice

Trinity Islands (of Adventure!) The Bat (orange) was meant to be an economical ride that would provide the steady cash flow needed to build the park's three other coasters. Undertaker (purple rails with grey spine) came last of all, just what i needed to get that last attendance boost to win the objective. By that time money was no issue so i could build a ride that ranges all over the island to pass by the main entrance.

>>3827476
This is some of the best scenery/landscaping I've seen

>you either go full autism or dont bother
Miniparks are an ideal way to make something with depth without burning oneself out on concentrated autism.

Anyone has examples of a woodie element that makes a sort of u-turn so that you have two straight tracks going different ways next to each other?

>>3830982
the element is called a turnaround, get creative anon

>>3830982
Any special kind of woodie you're building? A modern woodie would generally have a way more twisted and jumpy turnaround than a classic.

>>3831043
Yeah that's about the sort of things I end up with. I was just kinda hoping somebody had figured something real small.

>>3831067
well what kind of woody are you making anon? Give us a pic and we could help

>their woodies aren't over 0,18 excitement per a second of ride length

Do you even want to make money?

>>3831084
>intensity larger than exitement

>>3831128
As long as it's not too far in the red, the peeps won't care.

>>3831136
no anon... I care

>>3831128
literally any good woodie ever

>>3831970
oh, so tested something on that green one in the corner.
changed the carts to one per, and removed a few so cars would brake in the station instead of slamming into the last car.
it actually removed over 2 points of intensity.

park is hard

>>3831970
>BackLash doesn't have backwards-facing cars

hey can i get some tips on tree placement? i know nothing about this.

pic related, what i'm working on

>>3833118
deep tundra next to a summer forest at the same elevation like that is going to look weird regardless.

>>3831976
The less cars a ride has the slower it goes.

>Build awesome coaster.
>Have to build a unique station now

>>3833118
Don't make it such a sudden transition from snow to grass and snowcovered trees to green trees. Vary your ground tiles more by putting in more dirt, and mix in some regular trees where you currently only have snow covered ones. Try to do something more like this:
http://www.nedesigns.com/screenshot/3494/fbf-snowscape-2006/

Anyone got some sub-8 intensity woodies? No matter what I try, I always come over that threshold, it's getting annoying. Or are woodies just meant to be that intense?

>>3834454
The bigger it gets the more likely a 8+ I is. This is the largest sub 8 I could find among my own woodies. IRL woodies are intense by nature, so it's quite realistic.

>>3834484
That looks excellent, really captures the GCI style well. I would add bushes and barrels/mining junk in the empty spots, though.

>>3834489
It was built during the "waiting to win" time of a scenario and came out way better than expected.

>I would add bushes and barrels/mining junk in the empty spots, though
The current buildings are a little generic for a mine theme, but if I ever add it to a high effort park (which is not that unlikely) I'll probably give it a proper theme and unless I rename it mine theme is a no brainer.

>>3834489
>>3834484

I agree, this is good shit. Only issue is the initial drop, it should never twist in opposite directions when building GCI. It is also really short, but what's there isn't bad

>>3834684
GCI has done a first drop like that before, though I think Renegade is the only one with it.

>>3831128
Have you ever been on a woodie IRL? Fucking things feel like they're gonna fall apart at any minute. That's part of the charm.

>>3835119
>Have you ever been on a woodie IRL? Fucking things feel like they're gonna fall apart at any minute.

The only roller coaster that ever terrified the shit out of me is Outlaw Run at Silver Dollar City. It's a woodie that does a full corkscrew with only a lap bar.

I cat't believe any lawyer in America signed off on that shit.

>>3835168
Sounds fucking anus clenching. I fucking love woodies, just the way the things rattle and shake, they feel so rickety.

Haven't played RCT2 in forever and there has been no progress in the crackle collab. So I'm taking it and claiming it as my own. Should I keep the theme the same or no?

>>3835260
Completely forgot about this one, damn

Will OpenRCT2 ever make zoomed in graphics look better or will it forever look like ass?

>That new menu park in OpenRCT2 6.0 stable.
Wow, that one's actually good!

Yes/No?
Parts you can't see on the screenshots are on the right a small slope that leads to a sloped curve, and the other is just a curve and a small up slope to come back to the station platform.

>>3834391
awesome, thanks so much!!

>>3835513
What am I even looking at?

>>3835260
I remember asking to be part of the last crackle collab, but my idea didn't work out due to lack of space. Was supposed to be something with The Three Little Pigs.

I thought all but one spot was taken though.

>>3835690
An abstract kind of feel.

Why is this coaster so shit?

>>3835761
The Mini have some weird ass requirement that make kiddie versions basically worthless. I'm not sure if it's the drop height, length or something else that's to low.

>>3835779
I used the change ride type debug stuff to make a woodie or giga out of it. The latter was also just 3.0E/1.5I.

Guess I'm scraping just below whatever the min length without penalties is.

>>3835779
Looks like it was in fact drop height that was the problem here.

Does anyone know where I could find a nice landscape available for download? Also is it just me or do coasters seem to move really slow even when in excess of >40mph?

Happening now! It's a new Go- Gator!

That's how you do it! Putting the track together...

>>3836124
Is that supposed to be the end or the beginning?

hey guys, i'm kinda new to RCT so i'm still shabby but i've been watching tutorials and monitoring /vr/ct threads to make my stuff better. started working on a megapark a week or so back and it's still coming along. just added this woodie to it. entrance isn't finished obv but i was just wondering if i could get some tips on it. not too sure if it's good or not. thanks

And it's a little cluttered, if I were you I'd shorten the track somewhat and try to add a more noticeable element. A turnaround or something that stand out more.

>>3827078
Just like with woodies and variable bank and hill angles, Reels are very limited by just having one hill and two turns.

Thankfully that simplicity makes them my favorite easy to learn coaster.

Is there a way to freeze money? I want to tweak the land some since it's otherwise a completely flat sandbox, but it costs way too much.

>>3838562

>>3838562
>Umbrellas: the park

I appreciate the work put in, but good lord, everything is visually competing with each other in that shot. My philosophy in theming is to pick a palette of a few colors and materials and stick with it for an area.

On a different note, check this shit out I found on go.

>>3839885
This looks really cool and I love fantasy coasters that basically can't exist in real life, but that excitement is shit for so much effort put into it. It probably needs more air time.

But as a compact concept coaster it's great.

>>3838669
>>3835119
Gwazi was my favorite coaster of all time.

>>3838669
"Low ride attendance", cost too much to maintain I guess. It's a shame. I have basically no interest in going to Busch Gardens anymore.

>>3839885
Cool, looks kinda like pic related. On that note:

Not the best park I've been to, but the best day I've ever had at a park.

>>3840132
I've been on that guy. It's so weird because it's a typical 'coaster-in-a-box' like Flight of Fear in Kings Island but it being outside really changes the feeling completely.

Would look awesome with some buildings bordering it opposite the lake.

Is there any sort of difficulty level on RCT1? I haven't played in a while and I'm almost convinced I somehow enabled an easy mode. I make $10k a month off admission tickets without problem and my rating is 999 even though people are bitching about my paths being dirty and a bunch of benches are smashed.

>While fun to look at, perhaps these releases are better suited for non-NE databases, as this is a more serious community.
Get a load of this faggot.

>>3844253
Some (mostly later) scenarios have a flag set for a a less lenient park rating calculation.

>>3844249
Wew, I had no idea I was NED-good at RCT2!

Also jesus I want to make a new park now.
shnupz help me, how do I stop clustering everything together? Even when I space things out, the new ride just kinda grows and reaches the old ones.
And how did you git gud at making stations? Or are you using custom props that make it easier, maybe?

>>3844260
NE is the tourneyfag circle of RCT though. It's always been that way.

The only custom content I'd be willing to install, desu.

>>3846198
Of course I meant corner roof, hurr.

>>3846198
>>3846202
I wish OpenRCT2 could/would expand slightly on the existing scenario groups. Cornered roofs, a few additional supports and invisible support blockers so you don't have to bury 200 clocks every time you want to change how a coasters supports look.

>>3846224
>Bury 200 clocks
What

>>3846253
If you want to remove a support without using CSO you dig a hole, put a clock (or any "big" object) in it and raise the ground with clearances turned off.

>>3835119
We used to have Psyclone at Magic Mountain. Cool layout, based off the famous Coney Island original, but holy fuck, there was a demon living in this ride that wanted to cause pain. The cars didn't just rumble or shake, rather they would slam back and forth violently around even the gentlest curve.

The trains were manufactured by B&M, the only time they did something like that. Too bad the smoothness of their own coaster didn't carry over.

>>3810724

>>3847152
>>3846190

Yeah, it looks like it could easily be a coaster themed around like a "Honey I shrunk the Kids" type thing, where the ride goes through a big pile of cow shit.

Coaster looks pretty great, though.

>>3844249
Holy SHIT. This is cool.

I know this pic is old but is this the highest density coaster that still has around 6 excitement? I'm curious if anyone can beat this.

>>3849005
I managed to squeeze out a little bit more excitement without leaving the 4x4 square. More expensive though.

>>3848281
thanks a bunch m8, I could never build something like that

>>3846893
I'm glad I got to ride this motherfucker before they demolished it. It was a total shitshow of a ride and I loved it in highschool.

>>3849580
Is there a specific reason why the RMC wooden coasters don't have vertical loops? They have inversions, but none of them have a classic loop-the-loop.

>>3849583
I'm not totally sure. I do know that the loop in the SoB was such a nasty problem because it was so hard to maintain the track type change, and they had to constantly close the ride and readjust especially when the weather was typical Ohio unpredictable bullshit. The new RMC coasters have the same track type, so I guess it's something to to with the vertical loops' geometry.

>>3849615

>>3849615
My appreciations, apothecary.

>>3848102

Why is this allowed?

>>3850148
Because he built wooden support. Sure, it's a hybrid but hybrids are generally considered to be a kind of wooden coaster.

They always were shit anyway.

>>3850172

>>3850360
There was nothing wrong with any of those games, friend. That's the point.

>>3850387
I found GT5 and Twisted Metal quite disappointing, but that is, of course, just my opinion.

>>3850360
It was supposed to be about how Sony was killing the IPs not because they suck. As of right now, two of those are getting new games.

>>3820827

>>3821883
>>3821887
>>3821894
I would have called this coaster "Death's Door" because it feels like people are dying. Thus the low excitement rating.

> only the true death metal and goth fans would love it

>>3848102
Who needs arms anyways?

Thoughts? Coaster is pretty short, but it looks nice.

>>3851778
Ride-Photo looks out of place.

>>3851778

How is my station?

>>3857181
Decent. The colours are very strong (same for the coaster) and the flower bed thing in front of the station looks weird. I'd recommend you extend the station 1 tile towards the queue.

>>3855859
Is the performance of PC bearable now?

>>3857239
Define bearable. I'm running it on an i5-2500k (beneath recommended) and a 1060 and I'm perfectly happy with performance.

>>3857480
Well I have a Xeon 1231v3 and A GTX 970 and the slowdowns are unbearable. But everyone defines good performance differently

>>3854230
Made some progress. I kinda like this, but it's ehhhh

Playing around with Micro Park and actually managed to make a decent Lay-Down coaster. I expected it to have shit stats but they're actually pretty good.

Micro Parks are always fun.

this one came out allright.
i wanna find a better way to house the theater thingy.

Who wants to name this guy?

>>3859767
" The Whirling Dervish" I Like the helixes. Excellent uses of different inclines to make a wooden coaster in a large scale. Top marks. Would ride.

>>3859794
Thanks anon. Played a lot of the original a long time ago, got back into it when I saw /v/ plays OpenRCT2 a year ago, blown away that RCT had an open source port and could play online. Started lurking this thread since, and that is my first ride posted here.

This is my Vortex homage. I'm not too happy about the stats, but it was one of my favorite IRL coasters and this thing includes some of the memorable elements.

Pic related is the most intense carnival ride I've been on. It felt like being swung around by an angry giant. It's from KMG as well, what kind of mad scientists do they have working there?

Same here, but mainly because of bad performance

Been playing RCT1 all these years, never looked into no.2.
Decided to get it this morning, took a while to get it running (playing on an iMac) [OpenRCT2 is a godsend].

...and wow, wish I had done this sooner.
Simple new features such as auto tree removal when building rides, underground view automatically turning off when building coasters, cash machines, waterfalls.

just completed Botany, now startling Bazaar.
so happy, i love this game to pieces.
my one complaint is i wished they'd introduced more thrill rides other than a million new shops/stalls.

>>3869214
That's what custom rides and scenery are for, anon. There's a near limitless amount of custom content for rct2 out there.

You do know you can hold shift and move the mouse to raise/lower objects and rides before placing them, right? If you hold ctrl while the mouse is over an objects, whatever you are placing will be at the same height.

Good to hear you're having fun :)

>>3869956
>If you hold ctrl while the mouse is over an objects, whatever you are placing will be at the same height.
I have been fighting the isometric point of view for nearly a decade when placing roofs and you tell me this NOW

Is it even possible to build decent compact minis? They require such insane speed and decelerate so fast.

>>3870021
it is in the tutorial and also the game manual iirc.

>>3870023
Don't expect amazing stats from family coasters. That said, use more steep drops for airtime and bank your turns

>>3870023
>split lifts
>not banks
>no steep drops

Just design them like a schwartkopf. After making a station and adding basic scenery the excitement should be high enough to charge around $5, which is all you should expect from it really. You can use rocket cars to have multiple cars per train too, which adds more momentum to the ride.

>>3870118
That isn't any better for the same ride time or space required. The first coaster had everything banked, but I took them off to see if more intensity made a difference and it didn't. Literally same excitement banked or not.

>>3870161
if your goal is for max shekels why are you building one of the lowest capacity coasters in the game?

>>3870360
If my goal was to max shekels I'd do pic related or any other billion abusive ways to make money in this game. My goal is to build coasters of all types with good price/ride time/space required to excitement ratios.

I posted earlier about how much I'm enjoying this game (>>3869214 )

But i've hit a snag.
Fungus Woods (or Forest), on the campaign "challenging maps".
It's really frustrating me, you have to get 2500 peeps in 4 years, you cannot build anything other than wooden coasters (plus no thrill rides), the park is set to entry fee only, and despite researching shops and stalls for 2 years, i still lacked good money spinners such as souvenirs + t-shirts.

How am i supposed to beat this scenario?
I cant make barely any money, and that means cant regularly advertise the park, and worse still can't build new attractions. All meaning I have barely any chance of hitting 2500 people.

It would be easy if i could charge for rides, or at least have access to decent shops at the start of the campaign.

Any advice? I've failed it 2 times in a row now, and am just tempted to cheat + skip it.

>>3870946
I've never been too good with scenarios but with pay-per-entry you want to regularly close the park to force all the guests out and then let them back in for a rush of cash. The coasters are only to attract guests to the park when you open it. Max the umbrella price when it rains and go full jew with stalls.

this guide is for gravity gardens, but the same principal applies just with different ride types

http://web.archive.org/web/20150703151145/http://www.rctmart.com/fossil/GravityGardens1.html

>>3870961
>regularly close the park to force all the guests out and then let them back in for a rush of cash
This is only helpful when you don't have Cash Machines, which Fungus Woods does have. I've never understood this practice at all, especially when the objective is to keep guests in the park.

>>3870961
is there a less kindve, game-exploiting way of winning it? someone of gfaqs said dont build any toilets, forcing guests to leave (but not harming ur rep), and allowing more new guests to enter.

>>3871003
but what are the point of cash machines if you can only charge for food and merchandise?


btw i've skipped the scenario now, and am on alpine level. much more enjoyable.

>>3866730
What map?

>>3872096
Hydro Hills from Corkscrew Follies.

Haven't played rct2 for a few years
Never used custom scenery or something
How do install it? I've heard it comes with scenarios that use it.
Is this true?

>>3873038
Yup just download any park with custom scenery and it'll automatically import it and add it to your game.

>>3835119

Feeling like it was going to fall apart was because it was a GCI with PTC trains.
There are still parts of Hersheypark's Wildcat that need retracked because of how much the old trains fucked it up.

Thoughts?

>>3877498
Easily the worst video game I have ever played, no fucking joke.

The graphics and building system aren't bad at all, but everything goes to shit because of EXTREMELY strict limits put on you in sandbox mode.

You can literally only build 2 coasters, 3 track rides, and place 20 FUCKING TREES per park. A meter fills up when you build anything. when it's full, you can't build anymore, and there's no way to change this.

Complete horseshit, I wouldn't buy it if it were under a dollar.

>>3877521
*3 flat rides.

>>3877521
What the fuck. I mean shit, surely the 3DS has better hardware than computers when RCT1 first came out, right?

>>3877818
Probably, but keep in mind that it's a) battery powered, b) severely limited on RAM, and c) is nowhere near as optimized as RCT/RCT2 are.

>>3877818
It was released around the time when no one really knew the 3ds's limits except for first party devs, so they put a bunch of limits on it. It makes RCT3 look like a ps3 game.

>>3877498

Bought it and it didn't even work.

>>3877498
It's on the same level of quality as Mobile, World, and Touch.

In other words, stay far away.

Any contests coming or are soon to come?

I haven't played RCT since it came out (more or less). What's all this about online play? How does that work? Is there a /vr/ server?

What's the haps?

>>3882656
OpenRCT2 has a multiplayer option which allows multiple people to build on the same park simultaneously. It is however not too great as it desyncs a lot but I'm sure you can make it work

>>3882669
I'm just getting disconnected with every server I try, anyway. Gotta solve that first I guess.

>>3882671
If youre desyncing a lot then under the options tab you can choose to stay after a desync. Im not too sure how well it works but I suggest giving it a shot

>>3882674
it works perfectly fine, all the scary desync issues have been fixed, desyncs are really tiny now

>>3882654
There was interest in a 'Everyone plays the same scenario' contest but we didn't talk about which one would be best and the rules for it.

>>3882890
Any idea why I'd be getting the immediate disconnect? Mismatched mods or something perhaps?

Cant load it up again atm, but it might be fun to set up a server.
