Can RR Tychoon be run on a 486?

I think my friends system also has 16 Megs of RAM, and windows 98

Well, the minimum reqs say you need a P 133 and 16mb of ram, so you could probably get away with a 486, but it would be VERY VERY SLOW!

thx!

I tried running it on my p120 back when it first came out, but it was incredibly laggy. I couldn't imagine playing it on a 486. I suspect you are in for a very frustrating game.

Is it Railroad Tycoon or Railroad Tycoon II?

Must be RT2.
I remember the original RT going too fast on my old 386sx - 20MHz - 4MB RAM.

Yeah, if it's RRT it could run on 386. 486 is way too powerful RRT 2 on the other hand eats up a lot more resources.

nah you can play RRT on new systems.. my friend got a brand new comp (i don't know the speed) but RRT (the original one) runs fine on it.

[Urban Ranger]

I am sure RRT runs on newer systems just fine. I think you need to adjust the speed way down so a human player could keep up, though.

No, I haven't tied it, since I lost my copy (thanks for abandonwarez! ).

I've just started playing Transport Tychoon Deluxe. Took me a little bit to get started (on a pretty easy level too) but I think i'm getting the hang of it now. I never played Railroad Tychoon. Tried it a couple of times, but never really had anyone give me a hand on how to play it. I always gave up and played something else.

How does Transport Tychoon rate against Railroad Tychoon. (the old ones) How much better is RT2?

IMHO, TTDlx is much more fun than RRT2 despite missing a lot of really cool RRT2 features.

RRT is more fun than RRT 2. Maybe because the latter is just a slight improvement on the former, more than 10 years later
