RCT2 files

[K163]

Hi,

I'm new here and only recently discovered this game. I have RCT classic via Steam, but not RCT2. How do I get the game to work when I can't get the files it needs?

 

Thanks,

Craig.

If there was a way to make it work without those files, we wouldn't say it _needs_ them.
In other words: there is no other way than buying RCT2. It should only be a couple of bucks, and I would argue it's worth it.

It should work with RCT Classic.

Hm, I must have misread it then. I thought the OP wrote "RCT Deluxe". It is indeed possible to use RCTC assets - in fact, I wrote the wiki article I'm about to link to.

In that case, you will need to follow the instructions outlined here: https://github.com/OpenRCT2/OpenRCT2/wiki/Required-RCT2-files#rct-classic--rct2-mini-game

I've followed that and got openRCT2 working, the only step I couldn't work out was  "Allow loading files with incorrect checksums". How do I do that?

Open the Options window and navigate to the "Advanced" tab (the one with the wrench). It's the second option on this tab.
