This is basically my own version of RNRC. It isn't intended to be a recreation, but in some ways it is similar. Just so you know, I'm running a 9 year old PC (survives on updates) on windows XP with 512 mb of RAM, a 1.00 Ghz AMD Athlon processor (its so old that it doesn't even have a product or edition number, just AMD Athlon:eek:), 75 gb hard drive at, I think 5200 rpm, and a GeForce 5200 (an old one; though. I upgraded so I could play NoLimits a few years ago). So as you see my PC sucks, and so I went on building this around 3 fps. I was inspired by RNRC and Guitar Hero (It got me into classic rock again). I cranked up the settings and used the RCT3 recorder, which we all know makes the videos look better (more fps). The video editing was a nightmare, too. It turned out to be pretty "eh", but nonetheless, I'm proud of it. If anyone has any suggestions on a gaming rig that can play RCt3 with decent fps, please tell me (and the specs). I'll hopefully be purchasing one soon. So here it is. Enjoy!

The static you hear in the video between songs is supposed to sound like you are 'changing the radio station', but I think I
failed there.


EDIT: 12-25-07 I have a very powerful system now so all that crap up there no longer applies :)

I guess you did okay on it. This really gets you jumpy.

Amazing job, my friend. That music goes extremely well with the coaster. The beginning and ending was a little dull, but the actual coaster part was top notch. 9/10.

One more thing, what was the name of the song used during the actual layout?

Whoah, I was expecting like, a 4/10. :eek:

Yeah the beginning was more drawn out than I'd like, but the song played through the actual ride part is Through the Fire and the Flames by Dragonforce. Thanks!

That was really cool, just a bit unrealistic at parts and the launch looked a bit..."uncomfortable"...

Uhm yeah, I haven't quite mastered the "block brake launch" method...

Very nice. You have RCT3 skillz. :) I liked the window at the end. But if it was real, people would get bored and start climbing out of their seats before the launch.
