Such nostalgia

Just downloaded on a whim and man, this brings back memories! I also learned i would just loan out as much as I could when I was a a kid. Now I'm actually trying to make a good park. Please do t make fun of my financial numbers!! Im still remembering and leaving everything!! But glad this subreddit exists. Been ki.da depressed lately and this game just keeps my brain away from the bad thoughts 👍

Volcanic/Dragon’s Cove

How do you beat these?? I’ve been stuck for weeks. I don’t particularly enjoy building coasters. I need to finish them both to open more Amethyst Group parks. Any tips are greatly appreciated!!!

Help a Clueless Mom!

My 6 year old is obsessed with all things RCT. We introduced the game to him on my very old laptop with the original CD. That laptop is not a practical option for him to play on. We then downloaded the game on his IPAD and he loves that version.

Lately he has been seeing videos of people playing RCT2 on youtube kids and I would love to find a way to get him a way to play for Christmas. When I look on Steam it says that its only compatible with windows XP, which is less than ideal because my old laptop is rough. Anyone know what my options are here? Any help is insanely appreciated. He is very advanced for his age and loves this game so much, I just don't know enough about technology!

Opinions please

Hello everyone, I am looking to buy one of the roller coaster tycoons on Steam and can't decide if I should get roller coaster tycoon too or roller coaster tycoon classic, or maybe even a different one. Any suggestions? I will be playing on computer not mobile if that helps

(RCTC) the duelling coasters: she, and he

Yes. They are named she and he for the guest thoughts.

An example would be “she looks too intense for me”

Or

“She is too expensive”

I am a a man of hilarious nature. I think.

Can the Complete Edition be made into the Platinum Edition?

I bought the Complete Edition off Steam and as usual it doesn't look that great on a widescreen monitor.

I noticed there's a Platinum Edition as well on Steam that has higher res graphics. From screen shots it does look better, but it's no longer for sale on Steam due to copyright disputes.

So instead of buying it again are there way to 'enable' the high res graphics?

Also, what mods do you all recommend getting?

Thanks!

What group or scenario do "new" rides/attractions stop unlocking?

Every scenario I play until new rides and attractions stop unlocking because I want to see all of the rides and shops the game has to offer. I'm in the Bronze Group now and realized there hasn't been anything I haven't seen before in a long time. Does anyone by chance know if anything new is available in the last few groups? Playing RCT classic mobile!

Question about sounds

I was wondering if there is a way to turn of the sound when u get a new message down the screen like the 'Magic Carpet 1 has broken down' etc.

Going through my old parks and found this aesthetic loop on a corkscrew coaster. Dunno if other people do it too but I named it a "kroeger loop" after Chad Kroeger

Guest View

Has there every been any talk of implementing a Guest view where you can ride you own rides, similar to what RCT3 had? Or is that kinda thing too advanced for the code of RCT2? Would be pretty cool.

Several original RCT sound effects were from David Ellis' videos

Getting back into RCT and thought this B&M launch flyer (I feel like could be possibly realistic) was worth sharing. Didn't go in on themeing and my stats could be better (I already see where I can make improvements) but I thought it was a pretty good layout! I think I was Tatsu inspired.
