Saltmarsh Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 Recently reinstalled OpenRCT2 and having trouble getting it to run. "OpenRCT2 needs files from the original RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 in order to work. Please select the directory where you installed RollerCoaster Tycoon 2." Alright. I navigate This PC > Local Disk (C:) > Program Files (x86) > Atari > and then select the RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 Triple Thrill Pack folder. I hit OK and receive this error: "Unable to load g1.dat. Your RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 path may be incorrectly set." Unsure what to do about this, as g1.dat is definitely in the Data folder. What am I missing here? Some notes: I'm using Windows 10 I installed the original RCT2 with a CD, and it runs fine I used the 64-bit installer for OpenRCT2 I have not had this issue in the past
Gymnasiast Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 Which version of OpenRCT2 did you download? (Will need both version number and whether it’s a release or a develop version.)
Saltmarsh Posted January 9, 2022 Author Posted January 9, 2022 Hello Gymnasiast. It's a develop build, v0.3.5.1-788697a
CaveExplorer Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) I am having the same problem, with the launcher and the 0.3.5.1 build. I am on Windows 10, Steam game, 64 bit installer, didn't have this in the past. I have tried reinstalling both RCT2 and OpenRCT2. Edited January 11, 2022 by CaveExplorer
Gymnasiast Posted January 12, 2022 Posted January 12, 2022 We pushed a fix for an issue in this area yesterday, could you both verify you’re on build `7fff8fa` and try again?
Saltmarsh Posted January 13, 2022 Author Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) Installed build 7fff8fa, and unfortunately I am still getting the same error. An update: I uninstalled my CD copy of RCT2 and installed the version from GOG. Still curious what the original issue was... but OpenRCT2 works now! Edited January 14, 2022 by Saltmarsh Problem semi-resolved
redpaw Posted January 14, 2022 Posted January 14, 2022 Hi, I've been having the same problem. I just recently started using OpenRCT2. The latest release works but build 7fff8fa gives me this error. I bought RCT2 from GOG an have it installed to the default location GOG puts it.
