Struggling with RCT in Open RCT2

[PCretrogamer]

I'm struggling to merge RCT with open RCT2. I have found the directory but it then says "a restart is required for this change to take effect" I have tried closing and opening the game, as well as restarting my computer but neither is having any effect. Anyone got any ideas about what I'm doing wrong?

I need to know a few things:

1. Which version and build of OpenRCT2 are you using? The build is in the title screen and looks something like ab1c2de.
2. What is the full path of your RCT1 directory?

1. OpenRCT2 v0.2.0-120 -  2e36253

2. C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RollerCoaster Tycoon Deluxe

Excellent picture by the way

Ah, that explains it. You have an OpenRCT2 build from two years ago. That's ancient ;-). Please upgrade to the newest develop (you can use the Launcher to keep your game up to date).

Hm. How did you determine it doesn't work to begin with?
