This is a short review on OpenRCT2 one the best and most fun mods around. OpenRCT2 is an open-source re-implementation of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 (RCT2), expanding the game with new features, fixing original bugs and raising game limits. The gameplay revolves around building and maintaining an amusement park containing attractions, shops and facilities. The player must try to make a profit and maintain a good park reputation whilst keeping the guests happy. OpenRCT2 allows for both scenario and sandbox play. Scenarios require the player to complete a certain objective in a set time limit whilst sandbox allows the player to build a more flexible park with optionally no restrictions or finance.
"HOW AM I JUST FINDING OUT ABOUT THIS TAKE MY MONEY"
"It's Free"
*Throws more money
Rct and Rct2 is written in assembly language, that made me shocked a lot!!!
I liked this video. Thanks for the overview. Also nice Gambino music. Did the lighting ever get released?
If you like Open Source game recreations you will love OpenRA.
wait do i have to download the originial game or just downlaod the mod
you need the original games the mod just allows it to play on newer systems and yes it does more than graphic improvment
Great Video! I was wondering if you could point me in the direction of a tutorial on how to get this running on OS? I have steam and the open RCT2 but cant figure out how to download it so i have the source files.. thank for any help and keep up the great content!
are you Kez or Sergei?
Can you turn off the rides breaking down and coasters exploding and killing People, hated that no mater how much care, placed engineers and what you did it was inevitable
Very true
"OpenRCT2 - BETTER than the Original?"
*Yes*
next.
lmao
I have been playing this game since childhood and just turned 26 today... still addicted to it :D
This mod gives us all of the features we wanted as kids. Now it's wonderful...
Goddam Pai - Exactly haha I'm having a blast especially with the time speed option!
same here buddy
I've been playing the first RCT since childhood...I need to get into RCT 2 someday.
#MeToo
Programming in Assembly sets isn't as difficult as you think it may be. It can be very close to C if you use proper register/stack convention. Mind you there is practically never a reason when making a game like RCT2 nowadays but I can understand why Chris Sawyer did it at the time. He really went the extra mile by doing that and you can tell with the rock solid game he made. Very well made video sir.
Steve Jobs He did it for TTD too. It's efficient, but at a cost of portability.
i wish chris would make a new Rollercoaster ^^
"Programming in Assembly sets isn't as difficult as you think it may be"
post your game thats written in assembly, i want to play it
OpenRCT2 recently raised the limits and now has a new save format in use in the develop builds, you might want to re-visit some of those new things, a lot has happened in the last 4 years :)
I can't believe this is for real. Someone tapped into my dream and made this.
When an old game holds up and is better then a decent chunk of new games...how incredible.
Nothing incredibe about it. Look at movies, cars etc. Newer things are usually trash.
@@vika0194 your comment doesn't really make sense but ok
@@seanyboigaming8204 It makes complete sense, are you sane? What is better now?
@@vika0194 First of all, no it didn't. Maybe go take an English class so you can learn to read and write better. Your sentences are incomplete and hard to understand. 2nd, why are you flipping out and losing your cool? What is better was clearly the era where games were designed to be fun...not to milk a player base dry. Games like this didn't have some corporate agenda with a terrible battle pass system. They just instead relyed on being fun games that people wanted to play for hours. Yeah sure technology has come a long way and ganes look better nowadays, but older games and generations will forever be superior.
@@seanyboigaming8204 My sentences are incomplete? You clearly have issues then. And clearly can’t interpret texts. Where did I lose my cool? Get a grip. And then you agree with what I wrote which makes your first reply pointless. Why argue when you agree? Read what I wrote and think a little. I said that it’s not incredible because games and everything was better back then… You can’t connect a reply with your own comment. That’s incredible.
This game is older than me but i still play it!
halo，can I ask where can download this game?
chung chin khong steam
NeonDreamz98 ok thx
Ah yes, just like me.
I bought it yesterday
I've long been disappointed with the currency selection in RCT. You can change "$" to like "€", but the actual numerical value won't change, just the currency marker, so a balloon would cost an amout equal to about 15 cents, instead of a dollar. In 1999.
And of course, when I was a kid, I set it to the currency to that of my country, and set the prices to what made sense to me, and lose the scenario.
Have they changed this?
to think that this is a whole "DLC"for free from some ppl of the community make me PROUD
The problem with low level code is that its one, confusing as all hell, and two, not really friendly to platforms it was never designed to run on.
But I think people have been writing converters to port it to more human readable languages.
Defenetly a Big Thanks to the people behind OpenRCT2. It is exactly what the game needed!
RollerCoaster 1 was the most important game of my life! Also, I think that the opening, including his menu and opening theme are one of the reason! Everything in this game for me is perfect!
OpenRCT2 is a great improvement over the original game!
Hi deurklink
Looks about the same to me
@@dilloncompton6050 Not even. OpenRCT2 allows massive technical builds that are literally impossible in vanilla, it has multiplayer, a larger map size, and more
What?... WHAT!? TURN UP THE MUSIC!!
[Ragtime Style plays]
Love this game , been playing since I was 11. My laptop heats up like crazy when playing.. any one know how to prevent this ?
Play on a desk made of ice. It works for me!
open the service lid at the bottom of your laptop and disconnect the fan, clean it and the heat sink fins with a brush and then put it all back.
that's horrible advice. should replace the fan. if the fan stops your chipsets could melt!
Play the frosty Szenario!
I totally forgot about this game, cant tell you how many hours ive spent on this back in the day :D
Edit: $3 bucks on GOG, got it up and running with openrct2 and I’m seriously impressed. Especially the “unlock FPS” toggle which makes everything run so smoothly, especially animations. Well boys, time to lose myself in this game again 🙂
Showing me things I never knew existed. This is like giving me my childhood back. Thank you
fuck me.... I shall be promptly refunding rollercoaster tycoon classic.
This video rekindled my interest in the game after 20 years. I remember playing the trial A LOT, and then I bought the games + expansions on CD. I was mostly in it for building and did not understand the management part.
A couple of years ago, I bought RCT 2 on Steam and I never played. Now, since a week back, I am playing OpenRCT on my Mac. Such a good game!
Other than some sound leveling issues you are pretty damn good.
Definitely planning to install OpenRCT2 on my future gaming PC after watching this video (and I have physical copies of the games and their expansion packs, rather than Steam versions of it), and I also think OpenRCT2 makes the whole RCT experience even better than when I last played tons of RCT2 back in 2014 :)
I don't even really like amusement parks but this is one of my favorite games ever
Very well researched video, i think this deserves more recognition than it has :D
Damn tbat night mode looks awesome... I was thinking about this change..
*pretty FUCKING stellar*
This game needs a proper remastered version not like the classic on steam.
got my copy from a cereal box in 2003
I feel like Palpatine playing this version of the game
thanks this video was very helpful and now i've downloaded the mod and am able to play this old classic again on my modern day computer that's been infected with the windows 10 virus :D ....
The thing about RCT is that the top view pixelated old school style could survive this way for 100 years, this is what we all want right, rather 10.000 options than a brushed up 3d looking game which is crap...wish Atari understood that essence...
Do i need the game, or can i just download OpenRCT2 and just go?
Blaan Sarge I'm pretty sure you need a copy of the original RCT 2 game
Just jumped into the mod today... Good Grief, it feels brilliant to play, even now! Quick warning, if your game installs are on a different HDD to the typical place, it does throw its toys out the pram at first. Once that initial bit's done, you can patch in RCT1 from where-ever, which for a guy who just wanted both original games in 1 box is awesome - saves having to pay for the mobile classic port.
Proud to see my work in this vid, good mod review my man
This absolutely amazing but... does it have all the scenery themes available at once. Also, does it have all the sceneries available that come with the rides?
Nice! I'd say keep up the video making
Great review! Check out my channel to see Open RCT2 in action!
OpenRCT2 are better because it's Linux Native.
- of course I use Manjaro as my main machine man!
Now just give me open sc2000
Lincity 3d would be that.
I missed steep slope on junior coaster and bridge option for elevated footpath in RCT original.
I wonder why it isn't all in one like OpenTTD which is one download to get the game
They're still using the base assets from rct. But I believe that's the last thing they have left.
Thanks for the video I've heard of this and playing the multiplayer before but I didn't know I could play the original roller coaster tycoon parks with it
i have not seen that RTC2 open allows to charge for park entrance fee.
7:40 may very well be a “total conversion mod”
The guy who made this video : "I think I will make a video"
People watching the video : "well, an illustrated music video with a guy trying to speak over..."
Solid content and exactly what I was looking for, thanks.
Nice video, didn't know about open RCT2! But yeah I'm the wake of more modern programming languages assembly is a tough nut 🙈
But does Monotone Tim play it?
I want Tim to stream
I play it on my imac!
Jor Cap same
Did they add more support for 45° angle track? Instead of working on the standard left and right 30° I had built a successful Cedar Point Recreation using the 45° so the park midway went straight up the screen. The only sticking point was some track and the boarding stations did not have this angle available so the coaster recreations were not exact.
You video is great but there are two things that are imho wrong in your video: if something works well it doesn't mean the code is good. Even the code is code it can be a huge mess after years of maintenance. Also languages like assembly aren't very good for collaboration, clean code and don't work for multi platform projects. This takes me to the second thing: openrct2 is no mod, its a complete new implementation of the game format with all its flaws but with a modern code base. For example the RCT2 code is rotting and doesn't work very good on modern operating systems or even other platforms for that matter.Openrct2 is in many regards like Openttd.
Thank you, this video is exactly what I was looking for when searching for info on OpenRCT2 and figuring out if its actually worth playing
Seems like it is, i'm downloading now
If i just had been know about this before.... i couldn´t paid the deluxe edition for steam. The simply fact of play online with other players at the same time... It´s like a fantasy become reality :DDD
Would be amazing a mod like this for zoo tycoon.
Do you know if it's possible to stop having the right click lower the window scale factor? it's probably in the shortcut keys, but when i open the shortcut key box, half the pop up box is above the top of my screen so i can't grab the top of it to move it. Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks for this! I play open RCT on Mac but won’t have some of the scenarios such as corkscrew follies or loopy landscapes. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Where can you get this
Is the new light thing out yet
I've listened to it twice, but I still don't understand that point you were trying to make about reducing the tedium of longer scenarios. Could you elaborate?
You should lower the music volume while you speak, because its hard to understand you otherwise.
they ported OpenRCT2 to webassembly to run in the browser.
Yes rct2 is better than original because u can make gorgeous park creative
One word: *yes.*
I still spend a lot of time with OpenRCT2 and modded RCT3
I just found orct2 and have been loving it!
loved the intro music. it fit so well.
wait RTC2 has a day/night cycle?!!?
Imagine if Atari, or, like, any game company that actually sells a game for profit, could do something amazing like this.
Sorry, I'm not very computer savvy, but will this work for the Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 Triple Thrill Pack I just bought on Steam? And if so, what do I do to add this to the game itself? I would really appreciate some help, thank you 😊 Subscribing ✅
It does work, you just need to give it the steam local files directory (theres plenty of tutorials on how to find the local files of steam games online) and it will do the rest
my computer recently shit the bed so i installed linux ubuntu on it and it's actually running great... it was a bit of a hassle to get it going though. i had to run steam in wine which is a windows "emulator" to download my rct2 files then i have to open rct2 using a terminal command, makes it seem like i am an elite computer hacker guy but really it took me 3 days to figure out. but now that i have it all figured out the game runs perfectly!
if anyone else is trying to figure this out on Ubuntu 18.04LTS/19.10 .....
-go to steam website and right click copy the link location for the *WINDOWS* installer
open terminal and type "wget *PASTECOPIEDURLHERE* "
that will install steam on wine
then in terminal type "wine steam.exe"
that'll open your steam launcher and now you can download your rct2 and you can play it normally.
now to get openrct2 repeat that same process but with the link for the open rct2 launcher from their website
however to launch it i had to find the whole file path like this:
"wine /home/MY USERNAME/.wine/drive_c/Program_Files/OpenRCT2/openrct2.exe"
*if you run into an issue launching open rct2 from terminal, its because its in program files in a wine directory, terminal doesnt accept spaces in an address so you have to go manually put an underscore on "program_files"
another thing ive noticed is that it will put your save game files in your *linux* my documents for some reason, those are the real files so dont delete them, that could just be because i havent played around with the save directoy
You ran the Windows version of OpenRCT2 on Linux. There is no need for that, you can just use the native Linux version. There is a PPA for Ubuntu. Downloading the RCT2 files from Steam is also possible using the native Linux Steam client.
Your approach works, but it's way more complicated than necessary.
I hope Openloco gets servers :/
Sandbox?
if i rotate screen my map also rotate's any idea how to fix?
GJ, although next time perhaps put your mic's volume up. Some parts felt like you were losing yourself in the music.
That was my first time recording audio with audacity, I've fixed it for future videos
Can you make the UI bigger?
i wish the rct classic on iphone had multiplayer
I've been playing RCT 1, 2, and 3 since the beginning. I came back to the series with RCT Classic for my android phone. I beat the game, and am now doing a Mega Park run. Afterwards, I want to make a beautiful park run. But putting scenery down, let alone making a building from walls and roofs is a bit frustrating. I heard of this OPENRCT2 for a while and wasn't so sure what to think. Now I feel like, okay I get it now. I'll keep this in mind when I get a gaming PC soon.
I dont think you need a Gaming PC for it. It is still a Game from beginnen of 2000 :D
**says he has a 2K monitor, which is 1080p**
**game options menu shows 1440p**
Where does everyone keep getting this misinformation that 2K is 1440p from? 2K is 1080p. Look it up. /rant
Isn't 2K 2048 pixels wide while 1080p is 1920? /sorry
I'm just an idiot
so you have to have the original to play correct? My copy isn't working very well on steam.
You can use a steam copy, follow this guide:www.reddit.com/r/openrct2/comments/53vvfm/guide_how_to_make_openrct2_run_through_steam/
The opening intro looks a lot cooler then the original in this version
Don't need the full game, to play, just the Demo.
I would love to see an increase to the total number of rides/attractions/stalls allowed to be built in a park. I believe the max is 350. Maybe 500? or more?
They are working in it, but it takes alot of time, they basically need to build a new form of save file
This is fucking AWESOMEEEEEE!
Pardon my ignorance but what is the price checker tool shown at 7:42??
Isthereanydeal.com
6:55 almost fell out of my chair
So its like openttd?
no it is not you need the original games or steam versions to use this
Can you do rct 2 open on the Android classic game?
no, im pretty sureyou are only able to play rct classic
Background music too loud
What about my mom?
greatest rct game of all time.
Loved the humor
this is not a mod
Hi, can I do this on android s10 plus?
Yes, but that version is neglected as said by a dev: www.reddit.com/r/openrct2/comments/c7r6zf/openrct2_android/
Awesome first vid.. Keep it up
