RCT3 Help, Information and Requests

[Ormerod]

Well I seem to be a regular in this help thread.

Anyway, A bit of a problem has struck me on RCT3. I had been working on my park about 2 hours earlier, went out then came back in and loaded everything like normal. However when I went to open my park I get the following.

The park was already highlighted without me clicking on it.

Then when I did click I got this message.

Please note both Soaked! and Wild are installed.


If anybody understands what this means, or can help in anyway, I would be sincerely greatful. Thank you.

Use your back up file. It'll be one save behind but it should start working.

^^First get a hammer and hit your monitor with it. The more cracks the better. Then make sure you're wearing shoes and kick the PC hard. About 5 or 6 times should be sufficient. Then get a flame thrower and melt it all.

And your end result....


Modern art.

 

[Ormerod]

Thank you kimahri, I bow to you.
I will attempt this later on.

Ollie on the other hand, I shall not be taking your advice any further!

Quick question. When creating parks is it better to use the scenario editor or the sandbox? I've seen people using the scenario editor, but I'm not sure what it adds to the quality of parks other than the entrance.

 

[kimahri]

The senario editor allows you to change the size of the park, backround and the guest injection points and what not. Compaire it to Internet explorer and Firefox. IE being sandbox and firefox being the senario editor. FireFox does the same and a bit more so overall it's just a little bit more flexible.

Cheers. I'll have to give it a try.

Apologies for the double post, but I have a problem. I'm building a chairlift in a park of mine (which will hopefully be on here soon). The problem is that I can only put entrances and exits on one of the stations, which is no good. Anyone got any suggestions.

 

[kimahri]

Try this.

Click on the tab circled and then use the 2 incons I've also circled. The Greenish one is your entrace and the red is your exit. It should work.

 

[jokerman]

That's exactly what I was doing. I'll have to give it another go.

Looking for some direct links to some park features e.g. fountains and stuff, also some links to some decent generic walls.

Maybe if there's also one for custom tracks and stuff, I'd be greatful


thanks

Everything for RCT3 regarding completed custom scenary, flat rides and tracks (and soon Track peices) will be put here.

Got a recent problem.

The RCT disc is not reading. There are literally no scratches, but there's 1 tiny little crack on the inner circle. Maybe that is the issue?

Or could it be something else?

 

[kimahri]

Try a different disk see if your computer picks it up.

 

[Ormerod]

Ughhhh, it's reading the Wild! disc, not the original one however.

 

[kimahri]

In that case you have a dodgey RCT3 disk.

Buy a new one.

 

[Ormerod]

Damn, I now have to invest. Well I guess that's the way of survival.

My computer doesn't let me unzip Steelworx because apparently I don't have the directory it's automatically supposed to go to (c:\program files\atari\rollercoaster tycoon® 3\style\themed) Anyone know why? Help would be greatly appreciated.

 

[kimahri]

Unzip it to Mydocuments or something first then cut and pasted it to the right place. I don't think you can directly unzip files into that folder.
