Hi all,

I’m not tech savvy enough to figure out how to play RCT1 & 2 on my Steam Deck. I have both games downloaded on Steam.

I searched online a bit and saw that you’re supposed to download OpenRCT2 via Discover on Desktop mode. I did that but couldn’t figure out how to get any further to make the games run properly on my Deck. I try to open the games on Steam and the picture is tiny.

Would anyone be nice enough to explain to me how to get it setup step by step for someone who is not tech savvy with this sort of thing?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi All,

After a lot of mucking around, I finally got OpenRTC2 to work with my steam games. One thing I can't get to work is the cha-ching sound when guests are buying tickets to the rides. How do I enable this? I am on a mac.

Thank you!

I want to get a copy of RCT1 and RCT2 and to play openRCT2. Really want to show my son the puke that looks like pizza.

Eventually I want to play a multiplayer game with my son. I guess legally I would need two copies to do that. Steam probably wouldn't allow to run the game simultaneously on two computers?

Where should I buy RCT1 and RCT2? ( lost my CD copy a long time ago)

Hi, I'm working on a plugin and I'm trying to determine if a guest is on a tile with path. I've tried converting the guest's XYZ coordinates to a tile's coordinates with some linear algebra but it doesn't quite line up. Wondering if anybody has some suggestions

I updated to the latest version the day it was released. Now, the paths and supports are invisible when I open the game. I see these are checked off. How do change the defaults to show them? Thanks in advance!

Sorry if this has already been asked/addressed; I could not find anything about it.

In the track designer, my grid is entirely missing. It's just a black void. I've checked all the transparency and view options/settings. Weirdly, if I plunk down a ride, you can see the grid in the ride window but not outside of it (see screenshot).

Is this a known issue? Is there anything I can do to fix it besides wait for an update? It's not a huge problem as I don't use the track designer a ton but it certainly is annoying.

TIA

So I have the TTP installed through steam and when I ran the installer for OpenRCT2, it didn’t ask me to locate the game files.

The config file has the files correctly located however when I first ran the game, I had no scenarios at all. Upon restart, I now have the vanilla scenarios and content available.

Is there anyway to locate the TTP expansion files? I have tried uninstalling OpenRCT2 and then running TTP through steam then reinstalling but that didn’t work. (All the expansions are playable when running through steam).

Any help is greatly appreciated!

On the original rct you needed to research some special track pieces like the looping or the water splash for the wooden coaster. Can you do this in the scenario editor on openrct2?

So a friend and I are trying to play each other... and are trying to set up a server for us to use..

We have not been able to get the server to be seen on the global list... there isn't much out there on what you need to do for setup... Anyone able to help.... guides etc... we both have either fiber (me) or cable modem (him).

When loading the latest develop version of OPenRCT2 I get a series of errors that I wish I could copy and paste or even post here as images but, alas...

Something about:

An assertion failed, please report this to the OpenRCT2 developers
Version: OpenRCT2, v0.4.13-159-gdff7d4a (dff7d3a on develop) provided by Github
Failed to reallocate 4ba1b210 (enum std::byte) to have 2882303761511744 bytes

The other two are similar with the difference being the failed line:

Failed to reallocate 4ba1b210 (enum std::byte) to have 57640752303423488

and

Failed to reallocate 4ba1b210 (enum std::byte) to have 144115188075855872

And don't make me type those again.

I can run the release version just fine.

This allows you, for example, to quickly place paths on a specific height without ground modification or creating stairs, see the following video:

A huge thanks to AaronVanGeffen for adding this feature, that is now available on the development version of OpenRCT2.

Hi all, long time RCT and RCT 2 player, trying out openRCT and I got it running but there are no scenarios installed, am I missing something?

I am on macOS 14.5, OpenRCT2 0.4.13, I installed RCT Deluxe using innoextract in /Users/myusername/RCT1/ where there are now 2 subdirectories (/app and /tmp). In OpeRCT2 options, I gave the path /Users/myusername/RCT1/app.

Now I have new rides but no scenery attached to them, not even the Entrance and Exit. And a lot of them have a u(number) name.

And sometimes, I see the message about a vehicle design not available, even if I activate all of them for the ride type through the Cheats.

Do you have any ideas what I am doing wrong?

around 1 year ago, i asked for the option to have custom campaigns.

i unfortunately completed the base game today and doing random scenarios is not my thing.

where this game could get a lot more playability is if users themselfs could create a list of scenarios with their own challenges.

I have seen epic creations for maps from the community, but they are all seperated maps. if we could make them into a mission list, going from easy to hard, we would add SO MUCH fun to this game!

I don't know how hard it is to add this feature, but it would revive this game for a lot of people i'm sure.

Both websites refer to the same GitHub project.

It seems that .org is the old website, as its footer refers to version v3.7.5
(Downloads provide current/latest version directly from github)

I asume that the naming convention did got changed, it's similar enough. (v3.7.5 -> v0.4.13)

So, if .org is the old website, why doesn't it just redirect/alias to .io?
Whats the purpose of .org still beeing online?
Users could get confused. At first i thought one beeing fake/scam.
There is no hint on neither of the 2 websites, that the other one does exist.

Why did the project needed a new tld?

Hey Folks, after I selected the object for my Szenario the games just freezes when pressing the button to go to the next step.

I am on Mac with the newest version. Tried the one before but the same happened.

Server OpenRCT2 game and we were desperate for guests. It was a RCT1 game, thus no ATM or First Aid. We had a nice collection of rides and coasters and heavily advertised near the end. Couldn’t get 1500 guests after 3 years.

In the last month, a player suggested a crazy idea (in all caps): to spam trees. They were adamant and we were desperate. They said just to trust him. It was an alien map with just alien shrubs.

Spammed trees and still failed. Would this actually have worked? I mean it would slightly improve ride stats, but I don’t think trees help to get the Most Beautiful Park Award.

Any thoughts? Thanks!
