Roller Coaster Tycoon 2

RCT 1 with both expansions works for me on Vista 64. I use 98/Me compatibility mode as admin. For some reason it doesn't always work, so I switch on disable visual themes and that seems to work. When it doesn't I just switch it back off and it runs okay again.
 
Giving this a go it's so confusing where all the exits and entrances must go any guides out there ?

thing is i couldnt even get the patch to install for me on vista :confused:

That's only got the patches for the game without the expansion packs - if you have Added Attractions or Loopy Landscapes then you need different patches (and you don't need to install the patch for the basic game) - and specifically you need the UK english version of the AA or LL patch if you have a UK copy of the game.

I don't know for sure but I suspect the problem is that you have the wrong patch. You might also need to choose "run as administrator" when installing the patch.

I have only tried it with Loopy Landscapes so it might not work without it. Edit: I think the patch I used is at http://uk.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/rollercoastertycoonll/download_6083792.html

Heres why i never liked RCT 3 compared to 1 and 2 , Lack of queues for highly excitable rides. Yes people still queue but think about it , go to alton towers and on some days the queues can stretch as far as the queue line allows. You get this in RCT 1 and 2 but in RCT 3 its really lacking even with high excitement!.

I built a coaster with an excitement rating of 8 in RCT2 it was packed and people complained of long queues . The same style of ride and 8 excitement in RCT3 and you'd think it was winter , the people just trickle in. It gets worse the longer you play

Yes i've read the walkthroughs , tutorials its something i've complained about ever since the retail release of RCT3.

Theres gotta be a player made patch or something to fix this if its a big problem. Im reinstalling RTC 2 and 3 now after looking at this thread pop up every so often. Needs more screenshots!
 
My problem is some entrances and exits seem elevated ? like the pirate ship ride I build paths and it still says customers cannot access the ride ?

Both those rides say "customers cannot access the rides please build a path to the entrances" any idea what i am doing wrong ? Am I supposed to build steps or something ?
