flameboy Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Is there anywhere to download rct2 for xp? or even the first one...really wanna play..but using a cd isnt an option as on the netbook
Choze Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 RCT3 has had alot of patches its pretty good now and you can do tons with the expansion which are very cheap.
ReZourceman Posted April 24, 2011 Author Posted April 24, 2011 Lameness. The screenshot feature on RCT2 doesn't seem to work on Windows 7 as it doesn't save the screen shots to (anywhere). (The folder where it does on pre-Windows 7) Also I can't screen print. Anyone know how I might screen capture screen shots? Also anyone who has both expansion packs I totally want to show off my awesome comic theme park so I can send you save file for win.
Grazza Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 What a brilliant game! My RCT and RCT2 discs both had so much use, they got pretty knackered anyway. If it had a Windows 7 re-releaase, I'd buy it. What we really need is an RCT4, by Chris Sawyer. A game that uses the isometric view and "model set" feel of 1 + 2, and one that pretends RCT3 never happened.
ReZourceman Posted April 24, 2011 Author Posted April 24, 2011 1,000,000,000% agree. But with on ride riding.
ReZourceman Posted April 25, 2011 Author Posted April 25, 2011 Dunno why but Fraps doesn't work for me.
Daft Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 Have you tried changing the compatibility mode, running it on XP or summit? I've got the boxset of all three games downstairs. May whip it out.
ReZourceman Posted April 25, 2011 Author Posted April 25, 2011 Don't know how to run on XP, but I've read that you can play it windowed mode on XP and thus should be able to use the print screen key, but I don't know how to run in XP.
Daft Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 Google it. It's an option in Windows 7. I think you right-click the .exe and select to Compatibility tab.
flameboy Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 wow what a game. I'm gonna fire this up when I get home, well the 1st one at least!
Grazza Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 I fancied buying a new copy of this today. They had it in PC World (without the expansion packs) for £4.99, which ran on XP and Vista, but not Windows 7. Would Compatibility Mode definitely make this work?
Wesley Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 I'd be surprised if you couldn't get it to work on Windows 7.
ReZourceman Posted May 29, 2011 Author Posted May 29, 2011 It does work on Windows 7 bro. (in and out of compatiblogily mode)
