RCT 3 Question

Just a simple question on RCT 3, can RCT 2 parks be played on RCT 3, or dont we know this yet? Thanks

We don't know this yet, but I'm guessing "no" at this point. There's have to be a 3D representation of every piece of scenery available in RCT2 for it to import into RCT3. I suppose that's possible, but I get the impression they're going a slightly different direction with RCT3 and scenery.

You can import track files though. :)

so your saying lord gonchar that you can import your rct2 track files

Yes, you will be able to.

See the 2nd paragraph here

Although in the same vein as the park question, I tend to doubt any attached scenery will be imported.

You can import both RCT 1 and RCT 2 track files. But like Lord Gonchar said, probably won't mean much in the theming department. I doubt they have made 3d representations of every single item from each expansion pack. There would be just too much.

And it doesn't help me much anyway since most of my coasters are terrain coasters. I rarely used the import feature from 1 to 2 for this reason. Doesn't help much unless you are building a parking lot coaster.

Yeah i understand now and I dont care too much for the theming while riding it I just wanna ride my rides i created. And Lord Gonchar you seem like you know quite a bit about rct3 because I dont. But I do wanna know is it gonna have a hydraulic launched coaster in it that can go 420Ft like ttd or dont anyone know yet, Thanx.

I also read from another post that they thought there was going to be games this time around. Does anybody know if this is true

No official info on rocket coasters or games yet. The demo comes out next month so it won't be long before we have a pretty good idea of what RCT3 will do.

Oh and one more question for you lord gonchar I had heard that you could also import your own music playlist and play it in ride stations and throughout the park. Thanx

/me sets up "Ask Gonch Seminar"

You never thought of using google or going to the official website about these questions?

Heh, Ross - Gonch is feeling important today :)

Yeah, custom music will be a lot easier in RCT3. Not sure exactly how it'll work, but it sounds like the interface lets you choose mp3 files from your hard drive for custom music. None of the tricky stuff you had to do in the first two to get custom music going.

you must be Gonch...you're referring to yourself in the "third person"...

Where's the pin?...we need it to pop his ego...

Gonch doesn't like that kind of talk ;)

You don't remember where we put the pin?

It's in that red box in the corner thats reads: In case of Gonch super-ego, Break Glass.

Im completey different to you, I like the theming, but surely all the scenery from RCT2 will have to be made in 3D so there is scenery in RCT 3, so it would make sense for RCT 2 parks to run in RCT 3.

How do u get custom music in RCT 2?

Google: rct2 custom music

Wow, that was difficult.

Actually, it's even easier than that. Go to the data folder under your RCT installation and read the text file titled "CUSTOM" - it's right there.

I wouldn't count on that. If fact, I'd bet against it. Looks (and sounds) like a lot of new scenery. The only thing (besides generic wall and roof pieces) that I've personally spotted in the RCT3 screens is the Inca God from the South American theme in the Wacky World's add-on. And even then, I don't see how it fits in with the 5 annouced themes for the game.

Well excuse me, for asking a somewhat complex computer game question, instead of just looking it up on Google! Especially since, his whole 25 word sentence explained a lot simpler. :)

Gonch Mad!

Gonch Smash!!

Oh, wait. Nevermind.
