That's hot

Western mod my ass. That's almost all super useful in a variety of contexts.

AWESOME. Sorry RCT, your days are numbered.

I'm not so sure, Steve.  The cel-shaded approach really limits the resolution of detail in a way RCT pixel art doesn't.  At least at the moment everything is the same perfectly smooth texture and that's a little offputting.  

 

In any event, RCT's days being numbered is a goofy thing to say on a 15+ year old RCT forum.

Are they colorable?

Yes they are. That's one of the things I really like about this game- the color palette options are virtually unlimited. Of course, it'll get much better when we're able to save certain colors and create custom palettes. But still

Im sure the engine supports texture/normal maps. Just the scenery made so far doesnt use them.

You could use all of these if you wanted:

 

But yes, some tradeoffs have to be made with 3D graphics. You can't run an entire sprawling park at the graphics fidelity of current ego shooters either, which is why all of the 3D theme park builder games use a somewhat cartoony style (a realistic style wouldn't look as good without baked lighting etc).

On the other hand you get stuff like smoother track pieces, animations, train movement, less building restrictions and unlocked camera movement which doesn't work in 2D.

I don't think think any modern 3d themepark simulation would replace RCT in the way we know it.

At least I see Parkitect as a completely different game compared to rct2 with its isometric view. With OpenRCT2 I can see myself building in both of these games in the future. If only I could find some time...

If anyone wants to have a go at some custom scenery ill happily help texture map it,but i am no modeller.

I threw some filters on the screenshot jpg because I'm a dick and wanted to see what it looked like.

We added a Bobsled Coaster!

Unlike the other coasters we have the Bobsled Coaster doesn’t run on rails, which means it can derail if you don’t design it carefully. That also made it a bit challenging to implement… I’m expecting to see some wacky stuff that needs fixing once everyone gets to play with it.

And we also added some alternate cars for existing coasters:

Yes yes, I stole the layout from Roomie. But its okay because I warned him of my thievery.

Holy shit RRP, yes! Coaster looks fantastic.

Awesome! That looks so good. I'm really enjoying the new western scenery pieces! Great usage.

Come back to RCT2, RRP. You're too good!

Can't wait for Roomie's Bobsled experiments.

Don't know if you guys follow Silvarret but he did a nice video of his Let's Play series on Parkitect;

Damn, this guy is pretty good.
