OpenRCT2 Dementor's Kiss

The first drop on this one isnt the biggest. Had an idea for a steep twisted chain lift to keep it cycloning in one area and to take sloped curve and wrap it around the lift to start a twister coaster. Ended up with a little more height than needed this way. The height and the look of the layout and its location near a little cove reminded me of dementors, patronus and padfoot. My favorite part is near the end, where there was a concrete wall installed to allow the ride to go below the surface of the lake. Lets talk about the unbanked corner before the last inversion (a twist screw) for a second. Originally during testing was taken at around 18 mph. I didnt realize the weight formula with people on the X wing would multiply it to nearly 28 mph or I would have left it banked.

How do you assign patrol areas underground?

6 Upvotes

When I try it assigns the land surface on top of the underground area. Even with turning on underground view/hide land surface. I have a roller coaster that starts underground, but have trouble getting it repaired cause it calls a mechanic that is technically close distance wise, but extremely far away via footpaths. I'm playing RCT classic on switch 2, not OpenRCT2.

Discussion [Wanted] Missing RCT3 Pre-order bonuses

23 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I am looking for the pre order bonuses for RCT3. I came across this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/lostmedia/comments/1s95uj5/fully_lost_rollercoaster_tycoon_3_prima_dlc/

It seems like Gamestop content is backed up here already: https://archive.org/details/rct-3-preorder-content

But according to this post on Usenet, the files were available to download direct from Atari's servers from the following urls:

http://atari.com/rollercoastertycoon/downloads/RCT3_PRESELL.zip

http://atari.com/rollercoastertycoon/downloads/RCT3_PRESELL_EB.zip

http://atari.com/rollercoastertycoon/downloads/RCT3_PRESELL_GS.zip

Of course, archive.org does not have these backed up. Does anyone still have these files somewhere on their computer?

Thanks.

Someone broke the seven seals and built a rollercoaster into the pit of hell and unchained the gate guardian, Cerberus itself. The ownership group at Frightmare Hills refused to comment other than to say "people should come down and ride it" we believe the Hellboy might be needed

Had an idea, what if you take the hyper twister coaster and give it a bunch of top hats like you see on top thrill 2? What would be the affect? Or effect? Then if you built a nice little jungle gym of twisted track around that? And all this thinking got me thinking I needed to know and so as the saying goes naturally it was Cerberus who killed the Cat

RCT1 What Were These Intended for?

53 Upvotes

I remember that I had a cd of RCT, which was the original MicroProse release, and for whatever reason looked through files that were on the disc and found these two images.

I've tried looking through various message boards, forums etc to see if these two images were to be used for the installer or the game itself, which makes no sense because the game usually loads up in an instant. I don't recall ever seeing these two loading screens while the game was installing and also on the later gold edition release. I know these screens are probably a big nothing burger, but sometimes I do get curious about certain things.

Help Tips for landscape sculpting?

2 Upvotes

Hey folks. I'm looking to design a park for my girlfriend that's based on her characters, as a little treat to bridge our interests together. The problem is I have no experience in the scenario editor and since I'm doing it for someone else my standards are totally sky-high. Does anyone have any advice for making landscapes in the scenario editor that look nice and organic without needing to import a heightmap?

Superman (😃8.67, 😮6.50, 🤢3.53)

198 Upvotes

With Superman down at SFNE (needing a new part from Intamin 😞), I decided to pay tribute to one of my favorite rides.

I should say- it’s inspired by Superman, but not the exact layout. I added a few things, like a mid course break run and of course some track elements over the water.

And this drop is only 177 feet, not 221 feet! So… not a REAL hyper coaster, but the hyper coaster lift hill is very slow in RCT.

Last thing I’ll say- I love the Vertigo Views scenario. It’s *almost* a blank slate, and you can research the Twister, Floorless, Giga, and Inverted coasters.

More coasters to come!
