This is The Ultimate RCT Guide. In case you didn't know, RollerCoaster Tycoon is a PC game made by Chris "Railroad Tycoon" Sawyer in which you design, build, and manage your own theme park. This guide will give you tips on starting a new game, a list of all the rides, shops, and scenery, tips and tricks on other things, codes and cheats for those of you who want them, and some saved games and track designs. Remember, this is all for now. In the future, more stuff will be added. *======================================================================* /ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\ / /ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\ \ | | Starting The Game | | \ \_____________________/ / \_______________________/ Insert your RollerCoaster Tycoon CD and install. When you're finished installing, click on Play. When the game loads, click on the far left lighthouse. It will come up with a list of scenarios. If you are a starter, pick Forest Frontiers. It will then show you your objective, and then you can play! If you want to know how to actually play, (I.E. build rides, set prices, etc.) click on the lighthouse with a black hat on the top of it. That will bring up a tutorial. Well, happy playing! *======================================================================* /ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\ / /ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\ \ | | Ride/Shop/Scenery List | | \ \________________________/ / \__________________________/ RIDE LIST: Transport Rides: Miniature Railway Monorail Chairlift Gentle Rides: Haunted House Ferris Wheel Hedge Maze Merry-Go-Round Observation Tower Car Ride Spiral Slide Dodgems Space Rings Roller Coasters: Wooden Wild Mouse Roller Coaster Wooden Roller Coaster Steel Mini Roller Coaster Mine Train Roller Coaster Steel Roller Coaster Stand-Up Steel Roller Coaster Steel Corkscrew Roller Coaster Suspended Roller Coaster Inverted Roller Coaster Suspended Single-Rail Roller Coaster Single-Rail Roller Coaster Bobsled Roller Coaster Reverse Freefall Roller Coaster Vertical Roller Coaster Thrill Rides: Twist Launched Freefall Swinging Ship Go Karts Swinging Inverter Ship Motion Simulator 3D Cinema Top Spin Water Rides: Water Slide Log Flume River Rapids Boat Hire Shops & Stalls: Ice Cream Stall Chip Shop Burger Bar Drink Stall Candyfloss Stall Pizza Stall Popcorn Stall Balloon Stall Souvenir Stall Information Kiosk Toilets *======================================================================* /ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\ / /ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\ \ | | Tips/Tricks/Codes/Cheats | | \ \____________________________/ / \______________________________/ Tips: Not sure if your ride's safe? Then, test it first! Graceful and elegant rides add to the excitement. Theming adds to the thrills and excitement. Build what you customers want. Benches help people recover and rest. Park rating falling? Maybe it's dirty. Gentle rides give people time to see the rides in the park. Guests hungry? Make more money by selling them food. Plants and trees are not just for gardens. Your rides should surprise their riders. Watch the thoughts of your customers. Use R&D to create new ride types. Intense rides make people ill. Efficient parks are more attractive to potential customers. Make your paths easy to follow. Footpaths built close to rides add excitement. Rides need not be built in separation. Tunnels are dark but they can be exciting. Install new tracks/scenarios by placing on hard disk and double-clicking. Tricks: Name a guest "Chris Sawyer" and he will walk around taking pictures. Name a guest "Simon Foster" and he will walk around painting pictures. Complete all scenarios and get "Mega Park". The goal says "Have Fun!" Codes: There are no built in codes. Look at the tricks section above. Cheats: Like I said, there are no built in cheats. But there are trainers. If any good ones come out, I'll put them here. *======================================================================* /ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\ / /ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\ \ | | Saved Games/Track Designs | | \ \___________________________/ / \_____________________________/ Name: Twisted Triple Loop Type: Steel Roller Coaster Creator: Jesse Austerman Excitement: 5.80 Intensity: 8.24 Nausea: 3.51 URL: http://members.tripod.com/~rcthq/TwistedTripleLoop.TD4 Comments: This is a nice blue roller coaster with three loops.

It begins with a half loop right in to some in-line twists, and then another half loop. This is perfect if you want to have a thrilling but short coaster!

This is an extreme coaster! *======================================================================* /ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\ / /ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\ \ | | Copyright Info/Contact Info/Credits | | \ \_____________________________________/ / \_______________________________________/ This guide is (C) 1999 Jesse Austerman.
