'''''OpenRCT2''''' is a free and open-source recreation of ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon 2]]'' (RCT2) that incorporates some features from the original ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon]]'' (RCT1) that were removed in RCT2 while also fixing some issues present in the official games. In addition, ''OpenRCT2'' adds several unique features, such as cooperative multiplayer and a built-in cheats menu.
'''''OpenRCT2''''' is a free and open-source recreation of ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon 2]]'' (RCT2) that incorporates some features from the original ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon]]'' (RCT1) that were removed in RCT2, while also fixing some issues present in the official games, and incorporating changes seen in ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic]]'' (RCTC). In addition, ''OpenRCT2'' adds several unique features, such as cooperative multiplayer and a built-in cheats menu.


== History ==
Development of ''OpenRCT2'' was started on 2 April 2014 by Ted 'IntelOrca' John, with the project making steady development progress due to the efforts of other volunteers contributing towards its development. In order to keep the game playable and testing easier, OpenRCT2 called into the original RCT2.EXE for functions it didn't yet have itself, replacing these functions bit by bit with its own code. On 15 October 2015, this process was finished, making the game independent (except for graphics, sounds and objects) and easier to port to other systems.

On 15 October 2015, this process was finished, making the game independent (except for graphics, sounds, and objects), and easier to port to other systems.


== Comparison with Official Games ==
''OpenRCT2'' is available for Microsoft Windows (Vista and higher as Windows XP support was dropped since v0.0.5<ref>MinGW builds dropped support for Windows XP as of v0.0.5 ([https://openrct2.org/changelog changelog])</ref>), Linux<ref name="Linux" />, macOS<ref name="macOS" />, FreeBSD<ref name="FreeBSD" />, OpenBSD, and Android<ref name="Android" />.
''OpenRCT2'' aims to continue where ''RCT2'' left off, making it an update to ''RCT2'' in a similar way ''RCT2'' acted as one to ''RCT1'', or how ''[[Loopy Landscapes]]'' acted as one towards the base installation of ''RCT1''. Unless otherwise noted, most information on this wiki about ''RCT2'' directly applies to ''OpenRCT2'' as well.


As ''OpenRCT2'' continually updates, it receives new features, fixes, improvements, and changes. It also carries over elements seen in ''RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic'' such as boosters that were on ''RCTC'''s [[Giga Coaster]] and [[Junior Roller Coaster]] and applies them here. Compared to the original games, the gameplay is also rebalanced in several ways such as how much money the guests would pay for rides at max depending on their stats and age has been recalculated.
There are two branches of ''OpenRCT2'': "develop", which is updated up to multiple times a day, and "release", which is updated every few months. Generally, it is recommended to use development builds for the latest features and bug fixes. If they have errors or new bugs, they will likely be solved shortly afterward. The launcher can be used to keep the game up-to-date easily. The link to the download page can be found at the bottom of this article.
* For [https://rct2calc.shottysteve.com example], in ''RCT1''/''RCT2''/''RCTC'', a guest would pay a maximum of £16/$16 for a newly-built Corkscrew Roller Coaster with an Excitement of 6.42, Intensity of 5.43, and 4.36 but in ''OpenRCT2'', guests would pay a maximum price of £15/$15 for it. However, at higher stats (such as 8.43 Excitement, 6.90 Intensity, and 5.43 Nausea), a guest would pay a maximum of £19.20/$19.20 for a newly-built Corkscrew in ''RCT1''/''RCT2''/''RCTC'' but the maximum price has been raised to £19.60/$19.60 in ''OpenRCT2''.


''RollerCoaster Tycoon 2'' used a save file format (.sv6) with limitations such as 255 rides & shops/stalls in a park and 1,000 guests in a queue line. While ''OpenRCT2'' can support this save file format, ''OpenRCT2'' removes those limitations with a new save format (.park) as of version 0.4.0. This update also included support of save files from ''RCTC''. ''OpenRCT2'' also supports ''RCT1'' save files.
==Key features==

== Releases ==
''OpenRCT2'' is available for Microsoft Windows (Vista and higher; Windows XP support was dropped since v0.0.5<ref>MinGW builds dropped support for Windows XP as of v0.0.5 ([https://github.com/OpenRCT2/OpenRCT2/blob/develop/distribution/changelog.txt changelog])</ref>), Linux<ref name="Linux" />, macOS<ref name="macOS" />, FreeBSD<ref name="FreeBSD" />, OpenBSD, and Android<ref name="Android" />.

''OpenRCT2'' has two release branches: the "Develop" branch, which is updated up to multiple times a day with builds that incorporate new features and changes, but may be unstable; and the "Release" branch, which is updated every few months with a stable build of the game that incorporates the changes and additions of all builds released in the "Develop" branch since the previous build in the "Release" branch.

Due to game-breaking bugs on "Develop" branch builds being fixed relatively quickly by the development team, it is quite safe to play ''OpenRCT2'' using the latest build in the "Develop" branch (especially with the auto-save function enabled). One of the third-party ''OpenRCT2 Launchers'' is widely used to automatically install game updates.

Since it currently still used the same save format as RCT2, it means that some limits are still in place. Examples are:

* 1,000 guests in a queue line

A new object and save format is planned, which should enable the project to eliminate these limits, and to bolster support for importing RCT1 and RCTC saves.

OpenRCT2 is a free and open-source recreation of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 (RCT2) that incorporates some features from the original RollerCoaster Tycoon (RCT1) that were removed in RCT2, while also fixing some issues present in the official games, and incorporating changes seen in RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic (RCTC). In addition, OpenRCT2 adds several unique features, such as cooperative multiplayer and a built-in cheats menu.

History

Development of OpenRCT2 was started on 2 April 2014 by Ted 'IntelOrca' John, with the project making steady development progress due to the efforts of other volunteers contributing towards its development. In order to keep the game playable and testing easier, OpenRCT2 called into the original RCT2.EXE for functions it did not yet have itself, replacing these functions bit by bit with its own code. On 15 October 2015, this process was finished, making the game independent (except for graphics, sounds, and objects), and easier to port to other systems.

Comparison with Official Games

OpenRCT2 aims to continue where RCT2 left off, making it an update to RCT2 in a similar way RCT2 acted as one to RCT1, or how Loopy Landscapes acted as one towards the base installation of RCT1. Unless otherwise noted, most information on this wiki about RCT2 directly applies to OpenRCT2 as well.

As OpenRCT2 continually updates, it receives new features, fixes, improvements, and changes. It also carries over elements seen in RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic such as boosters that were on RCTC's Giga Coaster and Junior Roller Coaster and applies them here. Compared to the original games, the gameplay is also rebalanced in several ways such as how much money the guests would pay for rides at max depending on their stats and age has been recalculated.

  • For example, in RCT1/RCT2/RCTC, a guest would pay a maximum of £16/$16 for a newly-built Corkscrew Roller Coaster with an Excitement of 6.42, Intensity of 5.43, and 4.36 but in OpenRCT2, guests would pay a maximum price of £15/$15 for it. However, at higher stats (such as 8.43 Excitement, 6.90 Intensity, and 5.43 Nausea), a guest would pay a maximum of £19.20/$19.20 for a newly-built Corkscrew in RCT1/RCT2/RCTC but the maximum price has been raised to £19.60/$19.60 in OpenRCT2.

RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 used a save file format (.sv6) with limitations such as 255 rides & shops/stalls in a park and 1,000 guests in a queue line. While OpenRCT2 can support this save file format, OpenRCT2 removes those limitations with a new save format (.park) as of version 0.4.0. This update also included support of save files from RCTC. OpenRCT2 also supports RCT1 save files.

Releases

OpenRCT2 is available for Microsoft Windows (Vista and higher; Windows XP support was dropped since v0.0.5[5]), Linux[1], macOS[2], FreeBSD[3], OpenBSD, and Android[4].

OpenRCT2 has two release branches: the "Develop" branch, which is updated up to multiple times a day with builds that incorporate new features and changes, but may be unstable; and the "Release" branch, which is updated every few months with a stable build of the game that incorporates the changes and additions of all builds released in the "Develop" branch since the previous build in the "Release" branch.

Due to game-breaking bugs on "Develop" branch builds being fixed relatively quickly by the development team, it is quite safe to play OpenRCT2 using the latest build in the "Develop" branch (especially with the auto-save function enabled). One of the third-party OpenRCT2 Launchers is widely used to automatically install game updates.

Key Features

  • Native support for modern versions of Windows, macOS, Linux and other operating systems
  • Support for widescreen resolutions, giant screenshots of the whole map
  • Fast-forwarding the game
  • Auto-save function
  • Online multiplayer for co-op play
  • Improved and extended language support, over a dozen languages available
  • New rides, vehicles, scenery, objects, music (since v0.4.3), paths, terrain, colours (since v0.4.5), etc.
  • New special track pieces and additional special tracks for certain roller coasters (such as large half loops on the Vertical Drop Roller Coaster, re-introducing some removed RCT1 track features like boosters, and new track pieces large corkscrews and Zero-G rolls on OpenRCT2's newly implemented roller coasters)
  • Ability to import RCT1 and RCTC (as of v0.4.2) saves and scenarios
  • Various fixes for bugs in the original game and improvements
  • Optional convenience features like automated staff placement and shops snapping to paths
  • Built-in cheats menu and in-game hacks
