Call To Power 2 Cradle 3+ mod in progress: https://apolyton.net/forum/other-games/call-to-power-2/ctp2-creation/9437883-making-cradle-3-fully-compatible-with-the-apolyton-edition
But that doesn't explain why you started talking about it
RRT doesn't have much incommon with RCT... it's not the same mission-type and it's not the same creators
screens look pretty nice to me... Playing the old RR1 now gives me the feeling i'm playing a 1988 DOS game
the old RR was too chaotic and too crowded, I could never see what and where I was building

Just consider it like one of those buddhist stories that have only one meaning, and the meaning is beyond any explanation.
Lysistrata: It comes down to this: Only we women can save Greece.
Kalonike: Only we women? Poor Greece!
Locomotion looks weirdly like Sim City 2000 with graphics like those in todays market, (1996-graphics) I don't think it'll succeed... I would hope that he would have gone with a graphic detail at least as detailed as Sim City 3000 or RCT I... but then again... the pictures might be tricking me- they just seem so sterile...
Frankly, the game also seems to look a bit like Trevor Chan's Capitalism... a throwback to the old days of 1994,96 and yore
And that just won't sell in todays market- and frankly even though I like 2D better than 3D... I would rather see *better* 2D and more detailed 2D like Caesar 3 than a throwback to Colonization or Transport Tycoon
(However, a throwback to Civ II wouldn't be too bad ) but then again Civ II is an entirely different sort of game!

The graphics engine is identical to that of RCT1&2 - both huge sellers. Then again, the style is slightly different ( it uses a more serious colour palette than in RCT) which might make it less atractive to a younger audience. But regardless, Chris Sawyer makes quality games and that's what counts.
You do know this thread was about RollerCoaster Tycoon and not Railroad Tycoon?
Aha! Quite the detective you are. I was frivolously posting on threads, and neglected to take a keen look at the title. I would blame sleep deprivation for that. But you have to admit thta the new Railroad Tycoon looks pretty cool.

If you're talking about RailRoad Tycoon 3, then I can't agree...
I don't mean gmaeplay wise, trains never really were that cool to begin with, I hated the model train set I go t when I was a kid, (Probably my second worst x-mas gift ever). I just mean that graphically, it looks like eye candy of sorts, with a dash of interactivity.

somehow i suspect that would explain why you dont like the simcity series.
Did you like playing with guns more than playing with trains?

In place now are family groups -- a first for the franchise. Instead of faceless mobs of park guests milling around, this time the guests are organized into little families. You'll see a mom and dad out for an afternoon with the kids, or a couple of teenagers on a date, or a busload of foreign tourists all carrying cameras. They'll walk around the park together and interact appropriately: teenagers will sneak away together to make out in quiet parts of the park, tourists will linger near scenic places taking pictures, and families will behave like -- well, families. We watched a little kid throw a temper tantrum and get scolded by his father, then watched a family split up to ride different rides together. The groups of people touring the park now behave much more realistic. You can even create your own little families, ala The Sims, and watch how they interact in the park you built!
