Operating system

I recently upgraded to windows 7 and was wondering if RCT3 would work. A quick google search produced mixed results, so I thought I'd ask here. Anyone on here managed to get the game working on windows 7?

EDIT: Not sure why I started a new topic rather than just asking in the help topic. Tiredness I guess...

Yeah I play RCT3 on my laptop which is running Windows 7.

I've not had any problems with it, it seems to work fine for me.

Do you use compatability mode?

 

[kimahri]

It'll work. Billboards won't unless you do a certain thing with the command prompt which a quick YT search.

 

[jokerman]

Thanks for the help. It's all installed ok, and I never use billboards anyway.

Nope, I never bothered with it. Just popped the disk in, installed it and it works fine.

But like Kimahri said, the only problem you'll have will be billboards. But if you don't use them, then everything should be fine.

There's also a problem with the options.txt, like for merging track and stuff.

But merging track is cheating!

Merging track is taking advantage of the program, not cheating!

Is putting Chelsea players in a rubbish team on FIFA to get them to win, cheating? I thought so!

Yes, Messing up the game making stuff harder is cheating...

You can merge tracks in RCT3?

 

[CMonster]

Yeah, you mess around with a text document that stores all your options, and you can add lines and stuff that takes away the collision detection.

Everything works fine with Windows 7 except the billboards but there is a fix for that online.
