starting the thread off with some classic content

would have bumped the old thread if I'd realised it was on the verge of dying, sorry anons

do we have a map for this weekend?

>>8789198
I noticed but thought it had longer (looked at how far down page 10 it was since slow board) and I had nothing to post but "bump."

>>8788196
The wooden steeple scenery on the log flume is nice but I think the ride could use a few more drops.

So recently I've been thinking of doing scenario play for multiplayer, but with RCT2 rides added to the RCT1 scenarios. What are your must-have rides?

Here's a segment of a new map I'm working on. This particular area is based on the New Jersey Pine Barrens.

>>8789641
I'll probably host something from the /v/ pack, and change maps if we fill it up.

>>8789641
we will be playing the Wacky World scenarios until everyone abandons the server

>>8792920
>Wacky Worlds maps

>>8792920
>entire weekend spent shitting on the maps while making shitpost-y yet somehow still competent rides
i'm down

I have seen plenty of comments in previous threads say that Evergreen Gardens is the prettiest scenario but I find Mega Park to be just as nice.

Tried making a compact and viable wooden coaster. Stats came out alright but the cost is still around $8K which is higher than what I wanted.

>>8793006
>no curved lift hill
you can go more compact.

>>8788220
Now this is some legit classic content.

GOD DAMN IT

>tfw it's been 5 years and I'm still fuming about this
Fuck GCI, fuck Alton Towers and fuck jannies!

>>8793643
Thanks doc. It's been a while, but the dose was perfect.

>>8793006
You can always do better, never rest on your laurels there's plenty of improvements you can make.

>>8795012
Improvements like not using the woodie loops, you heathen.

>>8794492
Alton Towers confirmed evil.

>>8795012
>woodies with loops
>woodies with multiple loops

I decided to have another go at it. Slightly cheaper with better stats but I believe this is as high as I can get it.

>>8794492
It Just Works

>>8795467
>throw together a nice looking coaster without steep or curved chain lifts, even featuring a brake run
>slightly shorter than your purple spaghetti bowl
>comparable stats
If you're going to cheese it you can do better. Also try using all the crap >>8795012 does. Scenery spam, synced stations, ride interaction, etc. Hopefully there's some water in there as well.

It's an INVASION

>>8795535
thanks doc

All y'all shit ain't even compact.

>>8795535
>not black for pure M'LADY

post more compact coasters

>>8795575
here ya go

>>8795609
thank god you banked those turns, might be uncomfortable otherwise

opposite of compact but I find this intensely arousing

>>8788196
This is not classic content but required dosage

>the tiger

>>8795705
ya ever make a coaster taller than it needs to be for no reason? This is that coaster.

Coaster gods how do you make them so small yet have such high stats?

>>8795939
Careful management of speed.

>>8795939
A lot of it's mostly just having a good amount of scenery around, paths going under and over the ride help out too. I like building the entry path to go over the station platform because of this. Also, a lot of people forget that being over water can help ratings slightly.

>>8795647
Danke, herr doktor.

>>8795836
Everything is wrong with this ride. It takes brakes of shame to actually become ridable without removing any inversions.

>>8795947
If by careful you mean LUDICROUS SPEED and "trim" brakes all over the place to make the thing rideable.

>>8795990
>water splash into loop

the loops on woodies are so ugly

>>8796196
yes, they are an abomination.

>>8795705
>>8795990
The water splash being directly above the station ruins my evening the most about this ride design, more than the disgusting lift hill.

It's actually a good demo of intermediate coaster adjustment practices for new players to take away from, since the only thing you changed was the speed you took the inversions at and you were NOT in any penalty range to begin with, it just got softer within the good range and that still changed the stats very positively.

what are the best colors for a wooden coaster?

>>8797381
Light orange, bright purple, bright green, bright pink

>>8797381
Brown, brown, brown and white.

>>8797381
Green and purple

>>8797381
any of these 4 will do

>>8798120
damn lighting

>>8796461
are those lemmings?

The red/blue/yellow wooden coaster reminds me of those plastic Hotwheel tracks. Still that is the best Bumbly Beach I have ever seen (not that I have seen much).

>>8799462

bro wtf why do guests sometimes just fall through the ground at the entrance?

>Play on DO WTF YOU WANT server
>Cant do WTF YOU WANT

Bunch of fags I tell ya.

>>8801096
what did you do

>>8801109
I was gonna make coaster that takes years, faggots like paused my building rights, so I just fucked up the terrain and left.

>>8801116
what a bunch of retards

>>8801092
I've noticed entrance tiles don't always behave correctly (at least in my time playing just orct2) if sloped path is connected to them. I had a sloped, but elevated, path coming from an entrance in the crater level once and found a small congregation of people stuck under there later on, killing my rating. From your image it seems like if that happens on matching sloped terrain, they just harmlessly fall underground to despawn.

Wondering if it happens to guests who are checking the entrance and deciding to turn around back into the park, since it's not all guests coming or going.

>>8800886
Oh I love the design of that river rapids. I might steal that and add details to it.

>>8800886
>>8801178
looks great

>>8800886
>>8801178
You guys are so good at making pretty scenery and good rides that I think if I ever joined and tried contributing I'd be falsely detected as a saboteur

>>8801902
Nah, just don't fuck with stuff built by other anons or spam pre-builts, and nobody will probably care how "bad" it looks.

>>8801965
yeah we have plenty of players who are learning or relearning the game, no one will notice. I'm sure people will help if you ask, too

>>8801902
I can't do scenery very well so i just spam 2-3 kinds of trees around a given ride. Trees are the duct tape of scenery.
As long as you remember to bank your turns or not, for the meme and give your rides names you'll fit right in, even if you're not pulling in god tier ratings on the shittiest coaster types.

>>8800886
>the orphaned Mr Bones top hat
hey wait how do you do that

Henlo did ivory towers today am very proud of result

tungsten

>>8801902
That happened to me. Some other guy built an expensive heartline and, as a result, some third guy started deleting things I built: 1 tiny coaster and the start of a food court.

So don't think it is nessisarraly because you suck, if it happens. It's probably just 1 guy who fed themselves a narrative.

>>8802813
Yeah that sucks man. That was on the rollercoasters-only map, right? What was it called, Gravity Gardens? Everyone was really grumpy that day.

>>8802773

>>8788220
that's cool, I did something similar in a scenario today with go carts weaving around a wooden coaster.

Where does OpenRCT2 save screenshots?

>>8803530

I hate the way ORCT2 installs. Like my chosen games installation directories are meaningless to it, ORCT2 surely knows better that it wants the thing installed to my fucking documents on a different drive.

>>8804673
works on my machine
since you can chose the install location like a normal program

>>8805387
>he doesn't know
Go look in your documents to find the entire program.

>>8805468
nope, it's installed in a separate location. try taking your meds, or better yet, installing it correctly.

>>8805468
>>8805476
It uses the documents folder for anything that isn't core install files.

>>8803530
>>8804673
Documents is the ancestral home of program data. %AppData% is the thing to bitch about.

Getting back into ORCT2, going through the RCT1 scenarios and making ugly as shit parks trying to get the hang of things again.

Do you guys plan out path layouts in advance?
what about scenery?
I'm thinking I should take it easy and plan the park out more + create more scenery instead of just spamming rides.
this park was mostly for me to practice making roller coasters in the game-map again rather than in the coaster designer.

>>8805918
jesus those chainlifts look like they take forever.

>>8805918
If I have time, I will put scenery down. Depends on the scenario. I like putting buildings around stations.

As far as planning a layout, I plan around coasters. As I'm building, I keep a mental note of where I could put rides/paths around it.

>>8805918
We tend to build based on what has been built, if your asking about the server. Just find a place where your thing fits and then build them and you're fine.

You will never actually be totally safe. What one person may call perfect behavior another person may call 'destroying my trees.' Is it rude to put wooden roller coaster supports above another ride? Is it rude to drive your car ride through their vertical loop? Who knows. Do whatever and then fight about it. Try to read the room and then remember that you're autistic or whatever.

In terms of just the design of your personal park, I for one am already pissed at your massive queues. Like, try to explain to me why you put that ferris wheel in the sky. Try. It feels less like you need to plan things ahead more and more like you need practice stuffing your creations into the available space, aside from the ferris meme.

>>8805918
to be fair, Dynamite Dunes is a dogshit map for making good coasters. Those hills just get in the way big-time. I'm never satisfied by anything I make on that damn map.

>>8805991
I'd say its pretty rude to go apeshit with the landscaping tool and just desecrating the land with zero regard to how it looks (and our finances).

>>8805918
That one seems all over the place and not in a good way.

>>8805918
looks like the park ever

>>8807673
yea, that's my point, I'm looking to practice more efficient and aesthetic layouts rather than just getting money and beating scenarios.
plus I just like building lots of coasters.

tried building a duelling coaster to put in my next park
>>8808053
this park is much better themed, though if the land was levelled the pyramids would look better without supports.

>>8808418
>wooden loops
>hardly any "dueling"

>>8808418
lol you already clearly know how to play
>>8806883
probably yeah

>>8808483
Still learning how to play optimally and make nicer parks instead of just spamming

>>8808729
excellent bait anon

>>8808053
>the caged tree

classic screenshot.

>>8808053
This is every park I make, but with more coasters
How do you get gud?
Do you tear down half the park and reorganize once you have enough money?

>>8808849
Just have some basic foresight of how shit is going to fit. You'll need some knowledge - of how shit can be made to fit aesthetically - to achieve that. Dynamite Dunes, in particular, you need to make shit hug the dunes all terrain coaster like.

>>8808869
Exactly this, Dynamite Dunes is especially hard to work with because the dunes make such a large part of the park. Building into the ground often helps. Building coasters that conform to terrain is something you just have to practice. Try building shorter tracked rides that use the hills to their advantage.

>>8809148
And here's an older Dynamite Dunes from 2015, which went in a different direction. Steal any ideas you see in these screenshots and try them yourself. A lot of my building style is cobbled together from things I've seen other people do around here.

What’s your favourite scenario?
For me its bumbly beach

>>8809236
It will never not be the first scenario of 1 and 2 with the practically "free" objectives, just because I find the objectives to almost always be patently boring nowadays compared to designing nice scenery. I just wanna build nice shit, not spam coasters until I have several thousand guests and wait for year 3.

>>8809406
Every single park except the ones with a hard limit on park value or rating you can just ignore the requirements

since we're sharing our shitty Dynamite Dunes, here is mine from 2016

>>8808838
What do you think it did? Do you think it tried to leaf?

Who remembers going full autism with floating fences as coaster supports where the steep support piece doesn't work? Have proper custom pieces ever emerged for this?

>>8810832
I go full autism by designing good rides instead

>>8812114
That's not mutually exclusive.

Anyone got a map idea for this weekend? I'm making a map, but it's 252x252 and won't be ready in time.

>no easter scenario where you need to build a Bible Theme Park

>>8813609
I like it, but I'll probably fill up quick.

We may not be able to crucify guests but we can certainly set up enough patrolling roman soldiers to make them fear it.

>>8813609
Hosted. Come on in and build a park themed to Jesus, the resurrection, and the Romans that killed him in the first place.

Chris Sawyer is the Judas of rollercoasters, selling out TOGO.

What other zones should I make in this park?
this is my future theme zone

>>8815773
The past, obviously. Rustic mining/farmland, or wild west would work. There's also dinosaur if you want to go farther.

Your reminder that the crazy mother fuckers at Arrow tried putting a corkscrew on their suspended coaster.

>>8815995
THE ABSOLUTE MAD LADS

server is ded

please reopen the server so I can build a shit-ass side-friction coaster and leave

>>8815208
I tried a standup once.
I agree with sawyer.
Besides, real life standup coasters don't have cockscrew elements probably due to the fact the high lateral forces might seriously injure your legs.

>>8817006
>Besides, real life standup coasters don't have cockscrew elements probably due to the fact the high lateral forces might seriously injure your legs.

Sorry about that, seems the server died basically right after I went to bed. It's back up now.

Maybe 4 time zones, with the 4th being modern day city

>>8818385
at this point I have no idea how it crashes this often. It's like the slightest imbalance causes it to combust.

>>8815773
What scenery do you have? Roman themed areas are dope. You could also make a miniature city with all of the wall options.

I didn't know spaghetti was a traditional Easter dish.

>>8818385

feel free to delete that waterslide or finish or it whatever

>>8822521
>bobsled didnt actually crash
Fucking HOW It doesnt even work unless shits pushing passangers.

>>8822521
how many times did SPEEEED end up crashing?

>>8823591
Pretty much every other breakdown resulted in a crash, and it was a tossup after that about whether or not anyone was on the ride at the time.

>>8823417
through their faith in God, anon.
the other trains push it well below 30mph, so it's all good.

>>8822539
what a video

wait now this one did it too

>>8825089
How did this shit crash? Was it the second chainlift breaking during a cutout?

>>8825248
I think it was the empty cars going slower than the loaded cars and that caused a collision that eventually stacked up enough to cause a crash

>>8825296
i hate the mini suspended. It's up there with the water slide in terms of being unfun to build because you can't do anything with it without it losing speed after 4 seconds.

>>8825379
I like to think of it as an elaborate hybrid between the Arrow suspended swinging coaster, and an alpine coaster. As long as you understand that it should be travelling downhill the entire time, it's not that hard to make.

Speaking of new maps, I finally finished the one I've been working on for a while. I call it Michigan River, and it should be big enough for a lot of rollercoasters.

https://files.catbox.moe/nz2ma1.sc6

>>8832974
Instead of steps, make some small part of it a slope for shitty (but scenic) downhill coasters with low support heights. It's a rockslide.
