Official RCT3 Help Thread

[Mr. Starr]

Also, this may be a stupid question, but I forgot the cheat that is used to take away the menu icons to take a decent picture in game, anyone know how

 

Rename a peep David Walsh and then press CTRL + U to remove and bring back the icons.

 

Thanks Jon!

I need some help with the scenario editor, how can I get my land for my park bigger?

 

What is there in the scenario editor cannot be made any larger, that's as big as land goes.

 

The largest you can make a park is 254x254. You have to do it in the options menu, then make sure you set all the land to be owned by the park.

 

I have a blank one saved, that I can post, if people want it.

Ok, thank you mcjaco, I need some help. If I make an entrance like not one of the main entrances, will the guests actually walk through you custom made entrance?

[mcjaco]

If you place an people generator arrow, they will. It just won't count for attendance, nd you won't get any ticket money.

 

Best thing to do is install "Invisible Doodads." There's a invisible entrance in that set. Then you can build what ever you want over it.

[hulahoop1]

Thank you mcjaco it really helps me out.

I keep getting error messages with my new CSO saying "No :svd fror :sid". Anyone know what this is?

[mcjaco]

The scenery isn't installed correctly.

 

Make sure you Extract the files from the zip/rar into the Style/Themed folder. Don't Copy and Paste. It doesn't work.

Okay, I'll try that. Thanks.

 

EDIT: Still didn't work. I moved the .zips to the Senery files and extracted them there, but the game crashes with the "No :svd" message again.

[mcjaco]

Don't move the files anywhere.

 

Download the zip files to your desktop. Then, right click, extract (or unzip), select Atari/RCT3/Style/Themed. Extract or unzip them into the Themed folder.

[MayTheGForceBeWithYou]

Still not working...the game freezes up every time I try to use an item with the same error message.

[mcjaco]

Which sets?

[MayTheGForceBeWithYou]

NVM I found the problem...putting them in the wrong folders.

For Christmas I'm getting the Deluxe Edition of RCT3 but on my origional one I'm building a Park that I really like. Just wondering if you can open up the park in the new game and then uninstall the last one.

Just save the dat file in the My Documents/RCT3 file. Then move it back into that file when you re-install.

 

***I save all folders in the Scenery directory and Custom Rides folders so I don't have to unzip and extract each one all over again, when I re-install.***

Hopefully temporarily turning this thread into an "I search an object" thread isn't frowned upon.

 

I'm looking for CSO that would be good for making a wooden ropes course/playground, similar to Adventure Mountain at Dollywood and the structure in CD5's Bugs Bunny National Park area.

 

I wasn't sure what to look up on Google because people describe that sort of structure in many different ways.

[ABW]

How can I get to Magnetic Stators in the game once it's downloaded. Also, what folder must I place it in?

[gci2011]

Ok - I have DasMatze's German Railroad Crossing Kit installed and placed in my park where I want it. But I can't get the gates to close when the train goes through. How can I get this to work properly so peeps can't get through, or is that not possible?

I suggest Doughnut's Pool Structures and Dasmatze's Swizz It!. I believe CD5 uses Doughnut's Pool Structure's (not 100% sure though) but combined with the Swizz It! kit you can make some neat and unique buildings.

[gci2011]

Ok - trying to use the RCT3 CS Importer but I'm missing mingwm10.dll. No idea what to do, is this something that another person could send to me? I want to try to import a bit of CS that I've made.

[tiger01]

Are there coloured lights in game (Deluxe version) or do I have to import them as custom scenery? I'm looking for lights which Light up lift hills.

[gci2011]

I don't know about in-game, but I've used some that I *think* are in Vodhin's light set.

[tiger01]

^ Where can I find them?

 

EDIT: Don't worry I've found them. Thanks for the help.

 

EDIT 2: I can't access Vodhin's Custom scenery for some reason so do you know any other good light sets?

[SFMM fanboy]

Anyone know a site where I can download Old Spice's bridge set?
