Need help PLEASE! - CoasterBuzz

When I download a track, I unzip it, and it comes up in my folder as an RCT 2 track. Now, how can I get to use this track in the game? I've tried a couple things and nothing works, i need help fast!! Thanks in advance!

First, make sure that you placed the track in your tracks folder. Second, open up a park that has that type of coaster available. Then go into the rides box, and open up that type of coaster. The track that you downloaded should be with the rest of the pre-made tracks for that type of coaster.

Where is the "tracks" folder

It should be in the RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 folder.

For example, on my computer, it is located at C:\Program Files\Infogrames Interactive\RollerCoaster Tycoon 2\Tracks

If you use Windows and did not change the installation path, it should be at that location.

Yeah, I also have some useful information to help out. The first thing that you want to do is create a temp folder in your windows directory. The next thing that you do thereafter, you need to use a zip program to successfully unzip my pants. Then you need to stick your hand down my panties and feel around a bit till you find what you're looking for.

Greg Legg- not to be confused with "GregLeg" (I thought your real name was Bill Gates?)

Good info, Phantom. Especially the part about having the ride available in a scenario. I felt dumb at the time, but that tripped me up for a bit back in my RCT1 days

Jimmybob,

And before that his name was Chris Sawyer, Seeder Point, CedarPointNut, CedarPointNUT, Roller Coaster, coasterfreakguy1...I think there was at least one more...I have lost track.

Little Joshie has more identities than Sybill...unfortunately, they all share the same pre-pubescent, stupid little boy personality.

NOTE: That is not meant as a slam to anyone who does not meet the criteria. There are plenty of normal kids out there, unfortunately, "Little Joshie" isn't one of them.

OK, I got it finally, thanks for all of your help! I have one more question though. When I put many of the coasters on the park, none of the custom supports or scenery show up. How can I make them show up? Thanks again!

I have another question! When I take i take a screenshot, it tells me it saved it to tlhe disk as "scr01.bmp" How can i find this screenshot and have it uploaded with my coaster on games.coasterbuzz? Thanks in advance

Don't forget Mrs. Rollercoaster...that was the best one yet!

rollerfreak:

The screenshot should be saved in the RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 folder (ex: C:\Program Files\Infogrames Interactive\RollerCoaster Tycoon 2) and will be called scr01, just as it displayed when you took the shot.

To upload, all you need to do is find that file on your computer and open it to the screenshot box. Because it is saved as a .bmp, you do not need to convert the file type before opening.

Again, this depends on whether that scenery is enabled in your particular scenario. There is also a handy little button in the ride selection window (looks like a Roman-type building in the bottom right corner) which will toggle the ride's included scenery and paths on or off.

Hope that helps! :)
