RCT 3 PC My top 5 wishes for RCT3

1.A patch to fix as many bugs as possible. And I mean geniune bugs, not things that some people consider wrong although they arent bugs.
For example, not having diagonal track on the chairlift is NOT a bug. Also, not being able to save animal mixmaster shows is NOT a bug. Also, not having track for the large water boat rides is NOT a bug. Having the number of log flume cars limited to the length of the station is really only a bug if other rides let you have more cars than the station length (if they dont, its NOT a bug, just something that would be nice to have added)

AFTER all the bugs are fixed, then go ahead and add new stuff like the chairlift diagonal track or the open scenario button on the main menu or a new water ride that uses actual track guides to tell it where to move instead of the station-to-station we have now or an option to save animal mixmaster shows.

2.A scenery importer that can do (at minumum):
Everything my current importer can (including litter bins, particle effects, lights, benches, park entrances, walls, rooves etc)
Animation (and all the things that opens up like ride events)
Paths (The thing holding these up is that I cant get the game to recognize new paths properly)
Stalls (I could do these myself if I had the time to make the importer generate the needed stall data)
Carried Items (I could probobly do these if the importer was better able to output the needed data, because of how the importer works, getting it to spit out that kind of thing would be hard)

Being able to do tracked rides, flat rides, animals, animal enclosures, supports, ride cars, ride track, waterslides, pools, changing rooms and other advanced stuff would be nice but by no means essential

Just having <my current importer> + working animation + working paths + working stalls + working carried items would be more than enough. Heck, just having working animation would be KICK ***

Any importer that doesnt do animation right from day 1 is NOT GOOD ENOUGH frontier.

3.A Rock Band stage show (something where we can assign multiple music tracks and have them play either in order or randomly depending on a setting). Preferably with a good selection of different band styles (MUST include something to cover heavy metal/hard rock like AC/DC, Metallica & other similar heavy/hard bands). Better yet is if it goes with #2 above and you can create your own band and import it in

4.Changes to the game to make it easier to sort through, find, use and classify custom scenery. Some way to expand the list of themes available (the different "hats" at the top of the dialogs) would be great but anything that worked would do

and 5.More options for ride events, being able to have a ride event that triggers a particle effect, sound file or both would be GREAT.

Hopefully the people at frontier can see their way to doing at least one of these 5 items (I am still more than willing to sign an NDA if it means I could get tech info directly from frontier and make the importer better
 
I only have one wish:

Dynamic Rollercoaster building, because I find myself making the same coasters over and over again now. It would be nice if there was a function that let you build a coaster how ever you like, without having to use the already-made track peices. This would open up loads of possibilitys.

I do have this other idea, but I know it won't happen, being able to switch between Isometric and 3D views. I can dream. :eek:
 
I have one wish too, but it probably wont ever happen:

-An optional addition (It could even be a paid one, i would buy it :D) to change the interface to be more like RCT 1 and 2, but with the RCT 3 "look" 9Blue and white)
 
I would like the whole mangaging a park bit to be much better. Judging by the sounds of it, most of us spend our time in the scenario editor or sandbox designing things. When we've finished the park, usually you might spend a while managing it but then get bored, so you start creating something else. The scenarios also don't provide much of a challenge, and usually you only rush through building an awful looking park just to beat the objectives.

It would be better if there was an additional sort of management mode, where you start off on a randomly generated peice of normal land (such as hills and feilds) and some starting money and then have to build and manage the whole park. Sort of like a mixture between the scenarios and the sandbox. Then you could start other parks too to own a string of parks (such as Tussuards and Six Flags) and any money made from one could be used to spend on another. That way you'd be able to make a more realistic park with a much more realistic experience. This would be best for something like RCT4, and it would also work well if you could build hotels, resorts and actual working car parks.
 
Here's my wish-list (sorry this is kind of a repost)

1. Longer selection windows. Even with the minimal icon option, it takes an awful lot of scrolling to get through the ride selections. It doesn't even need to be re-sizable (though that would be nice)... just maybe the full height of the screen resolution (see pic further down).

2. Suntan lotion bug fixed.

3. Maybe a tweak to peep AI so they are more apt to get in line for rides. Queue management is fun!

4. Peep cam that doesn't require the renaming of a peep. My niece wanted to see everything at eye level... but she's not adept enough to rename peeps everytime she wants to get into "walking peep mode". So I guess the nicest way to handle this - would be to have a keyboard shortcut a person could hit which turns the mouse curser into an eye, and then when a person clicks a peep, they see what that peep sees.

5. Now this wouldn't be for my niece or the younger crowd... but I'd love the game to be "tighter" ie - more challenging to make money. I really love having to work hard to make money in a game. It's quite rewarding (except in MMORGS).

Thank you

I have only one wish - Random Terrain Generation!
Please, please, please?

I agree with you Keter. I know for some park builders here they like to do everything from scratch. Mountains,hills,lakes,streams, and then build all of their rides too. But for myself a terrain generator would be nice. Have the game generate a map on it's on or have sliders to add more water,more trees,more hills, etc.. Or the option for a flat map like we have now in sand box. Also have the option asking, Do you like this map or choose another? Basicallly like Sim City has.:)

You can already switch between isometric and 3d views - it's under the camera options - Normal, Advanced, Isometric, and Freelook.
 
I wish there had been keyboard commands for switching the camera styles rather than forcing players to use the GUI.
Frontier really geared this interface for mouse-centric users.

I wish there had been more flat rides, especially Junior "kiddie"-type go-'rounds and things. A proper Troika. Box-style loops for Looping Rollercoaster. 1st/2nd-Gen Intamin Freefalls. A lot of theming groups included no/few rides or attractions... I believe some groups only contain scenery and shops.

I was hoping for a grand carousel... or, at least a merry-go-round that doesn't spin like a whirling dervish.
Too much to hope for, I guess.

Yeah, can't begin to tell you how excited I am about Thrillville. /sarcasm

1.:rolleyes: how abought this. a new feacher in rct3, YOU are able to control you peeps. have a default setting with is normal, walk around on your own, and a custom mode. click that and you can plan a path, select rides, stuff like that.

2.oh and how bought a selection of track pieces, and more, like there is in the extended coaster.:eek:

3.mew path types. curving paths.

4.:D an invisable parkentrance

5.more rides, mor themes, more themed rides

maby im getting into more of a rct4 wishlist.:p

i wish that rct3 had option to do a different metal supports on rollercoasters and suff. and to have that metal thing on the sides while going up. just like they have those metal things in six flags. and more rides :D
 
Tell me, would this wish of mine be considered as a bug?:

...Having night stay night and day stay day. I'm not talking about the icon that let's day cycle into night and visa-versa. I'm talking about when you just have it on day mode, then the sky's go purple, then it goes back to bright blue. The same goes with the night mode. In night mode, the skies start out dark, then they get a little bit brighter for a few seconds and go back to darkness again.


I just wish the daytime sky would stay blue and not turn purple and the night sky would stay dark, especially when it comes to me making dark rides :).
 
Actually Michael they need a "Dark Pack" for those midnight parks like has been proposed at tpb3d. Whether they dare make one is a different matter of opinion.
 
Very good points, jonwil. It would be nice if they could get you to sign a NDA -- but it has to go through not only Frontier, but Chris and Atari..... which is near impossible at this point lol
 
1. more flat rides....real flatrides
2. a converter for rct1 & rct2 scenarios..would be simpler than trying to
recreate from scratch
3. different track system for woodies,to be able to make a more realistic figure 8 type track

4. ability for different color coasters,like rct2,as well as being able to save all scenery with a coaster design.....paths still do not save neither does custom scenery
5. angle building, paths,rides and all, and as everyone says a "great" lag fix would be cool

:)

Which is why we are making our own from the ground up. This way we don't have to go through anyone because the entire world shall own it. Our motto remains officially that "The Future Is Ours!" and it ;) really is you know. Besides we even have a beach scenario planned. Payback's a well you know, sand waves crashing, boardwalks and people swimming. A real beach in ours...definite payback!
 
i would love to be able to go into peep cam and then control the peep. as in control where he goes, where he stands, what he eats, what rides they ride etc.
