Rollercoaster Tycoon 2

You know I was thinking about that. It would ROCK to see little cranes and people putting the coaster together!!!:)It would go in order though; Land clearing, footers supports and track and finally the station.
They should make a special RCT2 edition that includes all the new rides and coasters(especially the launch coasters:)) from RCT3.

And yes, this is a VERY old topic.:P

Or even better kids... Put it in RCT4 :)

Wow. I was like "I dont remeber starting this topic..." and then I looked at the date. Wow.

Even stranger... I just got finished playing a little RCT2.

WOW! keep up the good work, very realistic. I'm very impressed.:) Cant wait to see some coasters.

Oh and one question, where'd you get the Donut Time sign?

I wouldn't bet on their being an RCT4. We all know Atari won't do another one, as their in court with Sawyer right now. And to be honest, I don't see Sawyer, who is a millionaire, taking the time to recode RCT4 by himself. I think that dismal RCT3 may be the end of a great franchise...

It's not the exact sign, It's just a shop sign I got out of a scenary pack by Fisherman I believe. I will be adding custom supports for TTD/MF & custom signs for certain places, like the park entrance, and major rides.

Since geewhzz made some props for his recreation, i'll make some for mine. I'll be making one for RCT3 soon, and i'll hook you up with the link ASAP. I'm ALMOST to the Raptor lot.

The only thing so far I would change is, if it's possible, the Ice Cream Parlor sits at an angle to the midway, not facing into the park as you have it now. Otherwise, the work you've done is most impressive. I'll be watching for other additions. Especially Transport and Spiral!!

If you ask me, the original Roller Coaster Tycoon with its 2 expansion packs were the only good ones.

RCT1 was amazing when it came out. RCT2 was perfect, except some of the scenarios were lacking a bit. I didn't even waste my time or money on the dump that is RCT3.

What they need to do is release RCT2 for the Mac...they only released the third game...Which is a great game with the exception of (as we have all discussed) the fact that you need military supercomputers to run it smoothly.

I don't even know if the military can run it. ;)

How exactly is that done? What do you use?
I've always wanted to know how to make custom...things. I'd love to take a whack at it.:)

amazingearl.com does some cool stuff. I'm pretty sure that there's a tuturiol on their somewhere on how they do the stuff somewhere.

Now, this isn't Roller Coaster Tycoon stuff, but it is roller coaster..... so take a look

That is my model of the lift hill of Millennium Force. It obviously isn't exactly alike, but I used the Force as a guide. Enjoy.

This is how I do my models;): http://photobucket.com/albums/v175/Dragster420/?action=view&current=RPM002.jpg

It's called RPM. Right now I'm trying to figure out some kind of launch system, and I have already tried 2 which both failed. After I can get it to launch, I'm going to do a station, "hydraulic shed/room", queue, landscaping, etc.

How will you put it Dragster with RCT2? And Demon Drop? Or will you have to skip those?

There's ways to put in rides to make them look or resemble other rides. But sometimes it ends up being a piece of scenery meaning that it doesnt actually work.
As for Dragster, I'd suggest using the hyper-coaster and then using the 8 cars per train trainer(http://www.geocities.com/jmanderson_2000/trainers/trainers.htm) and setting the chain lift to the desired speed. It works really well in terms of realism of a hydraulic launch.
