coasterdude5 Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 I went to go get it today at Walmart and it wasn't there! I looked and looked and finally found out where it was. The two workers were unloading the "new things" box and it was at the very bottom. To give everybody a hint at how slow they were going I first was there at 12, came back 30 min. later and they had only put out a few CD's. I said forget, I'll get when I get back from Chicago! So, that's why I don't have Soaked! today.
Angry_Gumball Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 I've got 2 choices: I can either run by Gamestop tomorrow on my way home from college (bleh..summer classes) or just wait and pick it up this weekend on my routine trips to good old Wally World. I'm definitely looking forward to making real waterparks.
Angry_Gumball Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Sorry for the DP... Anyway, today I stopped at Target to pick up my copy of Soaked but they didn't even have the thing in stock. I looked on the New Releases section and the only "Tycoon" I found was Zoo Tycoon 2. Gamestop finally has it in stock on their website but their 2 mall locations Funcoland and Gamestop (of course) do not have it yet. I was going to drive by tomorrow after class but I'll just wait and get it at Wally World.
XLRBR Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 Holy spaz! I didn't know it was out already! I so have to tell my grandpa once he gets back from his fishing trip. I bet he'll get it for me. Can't wait to play it! You know, if I get it. --Davon "I just loaded RCT3 on my new computer and now I'm going to load the first expansion pack!(sucks that I can't see water though)(lookin' forward to building underground and all the new coasters though!)"

Angry_Gumball Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 Well, I'm off to Wal Mart in a few hours or so. Hopefully they have it. I checked EBGames yesterday and I asked one of the workers and he looked at me dumbfounded. I think he was unaware of what the store has ordered and what will be coming in. Several WWS.com members already have their copies bought at their local wal marts so let's hope my local wal mart has it.

Dorsey Hey, I had the same no water problem, go to http://www.frontier.co.uk/games/rct3/faq.html#_Why_does_water_not_appear_on_my_sys to fix it.
Angry_Gumball Posted June 26, 2005 Posted June 26, 2005 As much as you're probably tired of hearing my RCT3:S rants as well as I am, here's my mini TR to both Wal Mart and Target yesterday and today. To begin with at good old Wally World. I look down the PC game aisle and see RCT3. Next to it, I saw orange with an RCT logo until I got closer up...It was a RCT2 bundle that had a hint of orange-ish red near the top. Tells you there they didn't have it. I asked the worker and he said that they sold out on it but I did not see where it would have been on the shelf to begin with. Today at target: re-run of my last trip to Target. No game, closest to a Tycoon was Zoo Tycoon 2. Last trip for the weekend will probably be tomorrow...I'll hit up Fry's Electronics and probably Best Buy. If all else fails, I'll check the mall during the week. On the better side of things, I got a sneak peak and semi-controlled what was happening. One of my online buddies showed me something through his webcam so I told him to make a speed slide to go into a Proslide funnel thingy...the raft went so fast that it crashed. He then converted it into a speed slide toilet bowl and it did the same thing: it crashed.
XLRBR Posted June 26, 2005 Posted June 26, 2005 Hey, I had the same no water problem, go to http://www.frontier.co.uk/games/rct3/faq.html#_Why_does_water_not_appear_on_my_sys to fix it. You know, those directions really confuse me. Since you already did it, could tell me exactly how to do it? Thanks a buncher! --Davon "200th post!" Dorsey
Angry_Gumball Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 Fifth day and now I finally have it. I got it for $25 at Best Buy, which has the cheapest price around for the game. I even got a free Take Five candy voucher packed with it. Now to install it and mess around with it.
Angry_Gumball Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 FPS greatly improved in Soaked but now that I have tons of peeps running/swimming around my park in the works, FPS dropped but you have to figure, there's tons of peeps. I'm due for another stick of RAM soon so we'll see what that does. Just don't open your park if you want better fps.
coasterdude5 Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 I got it and I agree with what Angry Gumball said. It runs okay but put pools in it and the fps goes way down. Think the RAM stick will help? Where do you get it?
XLRBR Posted July 1, 2005 Posted July 1, 2005 Never mind. I read the directions carefully this time and I did what it said! Now to test and see if I can see water. :shock:
coasterdude5 Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 I've found a problem. It might just be me. All of a sudden, the sky's transitions are very obvious. Then it reflects onto the water the same way. It's not bad it just makes look kinda weird. This happening to anybody? Also, I DO HAVE THE TEXTURE BLENDING OPTION ON.
