RollerCoaster Tycoon Gold Edition: Difference between revisions

'''''RollerCoaster Tycoon Gold Edition''''' is a compilation of the original ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon]]'' game, alongside both expansions: ''[[Added Attractions]]'' and ''[[Loopy Landscapes]]'', in a single package.

The compilation was originally released in Europe on September 14, 2001, as '''''RollerCoaster Tycoon: Totally RollerCoaster''''', containing separate discs for the base game and ''Loopy Landscapes'' in a single DVD keep case. However, as ''Added Attractions'' is already included in the latter pack, it still counts as a full edition. The pack was released in North America under the above name on May 22, 2002, with the base game and both expansions all in a single box, with separate discs for all three titles. On February 25, 2003, Gold was re-released as a two-disc set, with only the ''Loopy Landscapes'' disc included (i.e. Totally RollerCoaster).

In 2003, Gold Edition was re-released as a single-disc release titled '''''RollerCoaster Tycoon Deluxe'''''. ''Deluxe'' has a modified executable (version 1.20.015, as opposed to the patched ''Loopy Landscapes'' version 1.20.013) that disables trainers and the infamous Drexler Patch that allows hacked games to be opened, and also comes with some fan-made track designs.

In 2014, Deluxe was released onto Steam. In 2015, the Steam and GOG versions of ''Deluxe'' receive several language packs that were added manually, while UK English is still not represented with this edition, which means that no matter where you live, the American English version of the game is the one used.
