I don't know if this is of interest to anyone here, seeing as this subforum doesn't seem to be particularly active, but I thought I'd post it anyway. These are a number of custom rides I've made for RCT2 over the past few years:

Awesome stuff! I never got into the mod side of RCT2. I remember using the Beast trainer in the original to make rides do different things.

 

How do the water slides display the peeps sliding? The rafts replaced with a "person" raft?

For the body slide, the "rafts" are invisible, and the ride contains only peep sprites. You can't have a slide with no rafts at all in RCT2. That means the slide still needs to be a complete circuit to return the invisible rafts to the top. Depending on circumstances, you can either put the return track underground or make it invisible.

Still have RCT2 somewhere. I didn't get it too long ago actually since it's quite hard to find here but still an awesome game like the first and the third. Certainly some really cool ride types in here. A couple of these I don't think existed when the game originally came out so that's pretty cool.

I think all of these weren't around when the game was first released, except for the waterslides. The Maurer spinner is close - as far as I can tell the first examples opened in 2003, which is one year after RCT2 was released. The B&M dive machine existed but not the floorless version.

 

RCT2 did a good job of covering most of the coasters that would have been of interest at the time of the game's release, but the default selection is a bit dated now. Unfortunately, there's no way to make custom track types so some rides can't be done very well - the Intamin LSM and RMC trains both require track merging to make full use of them.
