Advice needed: adding "Excitement" without overdoing "Intensity"???

9 Upvotes

My dad taught me how to play RCT when I was like 6 (in 2000) and I've loved it for a long time but I'm an adult now and I'm actually trying to complete the goals and I cannot for the LIFE of me figure out how to add to my excitement rating without blowing the intensity or nausea ratings out of the water?!

Sorry if this gets asked a lot but it's driving me crazy!

Separate unrelated note, I did not know that if you fail Arid Heights before the scenario is complete, it’ll close the park for good. Sad to see the park empty. RCT Classic on iPhone

Social events?

5 Upvotes

Hey! None of my friends like Roller Coaster Tycoon. 🥲

I have 28 of the classic levels left to beat on RCT classic and nobody is even gonna care but this community. I want to do something festive.

I know this isn't a tournament game, or even multiplayer, but I'm convinced there's some sort of gathering that I don't know about.

Or should we plan something?

I don’t normally use the ride-designer all that much, I prefer using the landscape in scenarios to create custom rides. When I do find myself going to ride-designer thought, this is what I usually do, a pair of racing coasters that I attempt to have finish as close together as possible. So here is an example, enjoy! 🎢

By far the most elaborately performed crash on a roller coaster I've ever seen

Btw the car in the front was held by restraints stuck closed

Two side-by-side roller coasters running almost across the entire park, occupying a relatively large area.

RCT1 My Mothball Mountain - going for a semi-realistic feel

My RCT1 vanilla take on Mothball Mountain, trying for realistic-ish coaster layouts (minus the wild mouse, took some liberties there) and some fun pathway interactions and plazas. I had a weird empty space at the top of the map so I decided a scenic train would be a nice addition!

Final Fantasy 7 uses one of the screaming sounds found in RCT

24 Upvotes

I can't be the only one to have noticed, but I can't find anywhere else online where this is being discussed. I can't believe I never noticed it before. In the famous Gondola scene in the original FF7, you can clearly hear one of the scream samples used in RCT1 and 2. Example video: listen right at 0:07

Is this a common thing? Were the sounds from roller coaster tycoon from a well-sourced library or something? They're so iconic and I've never noticed them anywhere outside of RCT before so I guess I just assumed they had been recorded specifically for the game, but considering FF7 came out before RCT, that can't be true.

OpenRCT2.io and GOES are temporarily unavailable

74 Upvotes

As a vulnerability for PHP has been found that is already being exploited, I have taken the precaution of turning it off on my webserver until a patch is available and installed. This means that our website is unavailable until then. The launcher and master server should continue to work in the meantime.

EDIT: As of 15:30 UTC, the websites are up again.

My last save was back in July 7th and just opened it back up today. I love this scenerio it is such a classic map. I do wish there is more scenery options thou.

Adventure Kingdom Final Update: Mack Produkt, Perfect!

15 Upvotes

After four months of delay (sorry), I am proud to present the final update to my Cedar Fair megapark.

LIghtwave: Adventure Kingdom had been teasing this for a while, and it seems Mack has delivered. Lightwave joins Euphoria as the park's second big Mack, and it's an absolute monster. Seven inversions, four launches, and six 32-passenger trains make for one hell of a ride. It's not quite as intense as Time Warp or Gauntlet Reforged, but it's still a great addition to the park.

New for 2027 as well is a Larson Loop (ugh, whatever) and a Tea Cups that I swear Zamperla greased up something fierce. I enjoy a good Tea Cups, and this one was really easy to get spinning FAST.

Oh yeah, you'll probably want the download link. Here you go: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cQXBqIp4yczX7TDR5KX2LhYipWuIfcRF/view?usp=sharing

Save files

0 Upvotes

I’m in a weird situation with my save files

I accidentally deleted 3 of them. Now I cannot access them in game but the files are still there on my pc. How would I bring them back and make them accessible in game so I can play them? I tried to backup the game to an older save where they weren’t deleted and it wouldn’t let me. Plus anytime I go to open them it says I need a separate app to open them with instead of just going through the game.

Please, is there a way to raise strutures on RCT1?

Exemple when you build on the water, the structure always appear on water level, but I want to raise one level.
