![]() In your RCT3 folder, in your data folder, Take the files from the window's data folder and replace them into the data folder on your mac. Go to program files > atari > RollerCoaster Tycoon 3Ĭopy that data folder to a flashdrive, CD or what ever floats your boat.įirst make sure you have a backup of your data folder on the mac, so incase something goes wrong, you have the backup. Like so, (assuming you have RCT3 installed for windows) I just wanted to point out, if you have Windows(or bootcamp or parallels) and a Mac, you can just copy the files over via windows. If any bugs occur, send me an email or post your problem here. Start up RCT3, and Wild will be installed! The game works perfectly, and the careers work great too. Hope I helped some people out there.ENJOY!** Haven't had troubles since, besides a few crashes, most likely unrelated. Fixed my glitching/freezing problems perfectly. (pretty sure it's Soaked! expansion only.)Īnd remember, all of you that are having chronic freezing problems with your game, TURN OFF SHADOWS. A secret options menu will pop up, allowing higher resolution (full screen mode for you wide-screen users!), more graphics options, and more! !!Extra hint: Hold down "command" button () before clicking on the game. None of my data, including Wild!, was erased. Then I had to re-install soaked from the CD. To fix it, I put in the ORIGINAL RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 game CD, went to /RollerCoater Tycoon 3/Data and drag-and-dropped the "RCT3.dgf" file and replaced the one that was there. THEN, after the synchronization, drag and drop the "rct3.dgf" back to the /Applications/RollerCoater Tycoon 3/Data folder (replacing any existing one). The original author failed to mention that if you do this process exactly as stated, you will lose the ability to see bodies of water.AT ALL! But to fix this, BEFORE you do the synchronization, move the file called "rct3.dgf" from /Applications/RollerCoaster Tycoon 3/Data to the desktop. Click the "Synchronize" button & relax.ĮDIT: Ooops! Well this got me in a BIG mess. Click the arrow in between the folders until the arrow is pointing only to the right. for the folder titled "Data" within Applications > RollerCoaster Tycoon 3. On the right side, drag & drop or click + Browse. for the _Common folder from the data2.cab file. Click "Add Pair." A lil' drawer will slide out on the right hand side In the question mark on the left side, drag & drop or click + Browse. Just use the trial version of File Synchronization, which will do it all for you-virtually no room for error.Īfter the download, open it up. ** AH! Thank youu!!! I've been looking at this thread for the past 2 days, and for some reason didn't pay much attention to this critical post 'til now.Thanks!!Īnd everyone, do NOT spend your time (~3 hours for some people?) properly copying the files from _Common over to Data manually. Also, folders inside folders need to have replaced data files too. You need to copy every file inside every folder in "_Common" to the same folders in "Data."Įxample: (Note: you have to open both folders on the windows.)įolders that do not exist need to be copied over. You will notice that the _Common folder and the Data folder look similar. Step 4 can be achieved using wad11656's update, which is posted under Step 4. Inside will be a folder called "Data" Open that. Now, open a new Finder window and locate your RCT3 application folder. ![]() Open the "data2 Juice." Inside is a folder named "_Common." Open that. You should now have a folder on your desktop named "data2 Juice". Atari, the publisher, got in a lawsuit with Chris Sawyer, the man who created the tycoon games. (19.99 from Amazon.) You need this because it was the first in the expansion packs for RCT3 mac. This tutorial will tell you how to install RCT3 Wild on your Mac, easy as pie. It took me about 20 min to install, so it's fairly easy. I have officially installed RCT3 Wild on both my PPC and Intel macs. (Yes, I was 11 when I made this originally.) I honestly didn't think anyone would use a guide from an 11 year old when I made this 2 years ago. My website will have the updated guide, and I will post the new guide here when I finish it along with the video tutorial. Also, the tutorial is MUCH simpilar with the use of File Synchronization. (EpicGeekFailTV) Thanks to wad11656, I found some bugfixes to this and used his help to perfect this. I'll be rewriting this guide and providing a video tutorial to my Youtube channel. I also have changed my online "avatar" name to EpicGeekFail. I've been busy pursuing other projects and completely forgot about this. I'm so sorry that I haven't updated this thread in ages. EDIT (12/1/10): So apparently this guide sparked Aspyr to announce that they will release Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 Platinum for Mac, but given Aspyr's track record, I doubt it will be finished.
