The games had come out of his work developing a sequel to Transport Tycoon, which he released in 1994. The player also must manage the park's finances to make sure they bring in sufficient revenues from guests to cover the cost of running the park and installing new features.Ĭhris Sawyer had developed the original RollerCoaster Tycoon and its sequel RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, which released respectively in 19. In particular, the game allows players to plan out a wide array of custom roller coasters and other rides using tracks, such as log flumes and go-karts. Played from an isometric view, players are tasked with building or revitalizing an amusement park by adding rides, attractions, facilities, paths, landscaping, and staff to manage the park. I've got a Mac, and installed Steam to buy RCT2, only to find it didn't work - I followed the steps here, and got to the /Applications/Steam.app/Contents/MacOS/steamapps/content/app_285330/ stage, but then it says to change the "\" to a "/" and I don't understand where I do that.Main article: Gameplay in the RollerCoaster Tycoon seriesĬlassic implements the same gameplay as the first two games in the RollerCoaster Tycoon series.
#OPENRCT2 MAC MAC#
What i really learned is that i infact will not be going back to mac any time soon. I know this is not perfect but i was doing it for my gf over video chat so i cant replicate it to write this. She then closed it and re opened and it started right up. When i ( she) did this the window opened but was just black. This is where it gets weird and i think was partly just a glitch. go into openrct and click on that folder where you copied it. in there i think it was under contents and in there was the folder. Then in there is a icon in there that looks like you're gonna open the app but double click it. In steam i think the folder is called steam bundle or something similar. Hold alt so library apears in menu and press that. What did you mean by switching the back slashes to forward slashes? Where do i change that?ĮDIT: I persevered and found it. When i type that file location into finder it can't find anything. it downloaded everything correctly but im having trouble with your steps. So i followed all the steps on the github.
#OPENRCT2 MAC INSTALL#
Thanks for making RTC playable on Mac guys.Īdded install instructions for people who were looking for it just like me I just like to see the people walking around and such. Otherwise your maximum zoom-in level is just still like half the map. I have even set it on 3.00 just to get the RTC feeling. It will getting smaller and smaller. If you fuck it up to many times it will be really, really hard to change it back to normal size because it becomes so small. Because if you try to click on it, you'll somehow click the down arrow and fuck it up. I also recommend to put the 'windows scale factor' on macs from 1.00 to 2.00 (when playing fullscreen). Steam will return a file location with "\" instead of "/", so change the "\" to "/".Ĭopy the folder "depot_285331" to applications folder, rename it something like RollerCoaster Tycoon 2. Applications/Steam.app/Contents/MacOS/steamapps/content/app_285330/ It's only 1GB but a there are a lot of small files. Ignore the part about Wine and skip to Native and follow the instructions.Īfter you've done that, open Finder and Go to folder (Shift+Cmd+G) and insert: Instead, just install the game, then run OpenRCT2 instead.įor every mac user who bought RCT2 on Steam, this is what you want. I wouldn't recommend running Vanilla RCT2 using Wine, since all programs need some optimization first. Basically, the program will think it is running on Windows, but Wine is actually tricking it that way.
#OPENRCT2 MAC SOFTWARE#
If you don't know already, Wine is a software that makes a Windows friendly-ecosystem for the program you are wanting to install. This is essentially the same 'Wine' method being used. Since you are wanting to install it through steam, you could check this link: Another way could be by using Wine to install the game, then the same folder redirecting business. Of course, there are more ways, like running a Virtual Machine of sorts on the Mac and install RCT2 within this VM, and then directing OpenRCT2 to the installation folder. Then, run OpenRCT2 on the Mac and when the program asks for the game folder, you direct it to the folder you transferred earlier. The easiest way this works is you need a Windows running machine first, install the game on it, then copy that installed folder onto your Mac.
