Hi all,
First time poster on this forum after starting to play OpenRCT2 just recently! I have been playing RCT1 since I was a kid, considering I am in my thirties now that is a long time 😁 I have always played RCT1 however and never really touched RCT2. For some reason it lacked some atmosphere in my opinion, but I cannot exactly put on finger on what it exactly is that makes me like RCT1 way better than 2.
Anyway, as said, recently I started playing OpenRCT2. I own all original cd's of RCT1, RCT2 and RCT3. However, I live in a small apartment so my girlfriend decided one day to clear out the shelves, so the cd's are sitting in a box in the basement now. I also own Rollercoaster Tycoon Classic on Steam, but I understood that isn't really compatible with OpenRCT2. Therefore, I downloaded the RCT2 demo and used that as base for my OpenRCT2 installation. Everything works fine, I have all of the RCT1 scenario's in the game as well even though I haven't entered the path for my RCT1 installation in the settings.
There are some minor issues though: I cannot play the RCT1 music in the main menu, apart from the merry-go-round and dodgems ride music doesn't work (I can switch it on, but hear nothing) and some stuff from RCT1 is not showing up (like the green queue line path). My question: will this stuff work correctly when I retrieve my original cd's from my basement and re-install OpenRCT2 using those as the base rather than the RCT2 demo?
I am very happy using OpenRCT2 right now, but these minor things (especially the ride music) would really be the finishing touch!
