I have 2 questions:
1 How can you make switch track and does it works?

2 How can you make other supports for your coaster. I mean, if you make an KK with rct3, you get other supports than the real supports of KK. Chek this picture of the KK from NR33 and look at the supports:


How can you make that supports?

You can fake a real looking switch track by going to

C: folder
Application date
options
then type in
Allowsametrackintersect1

Then you can build a coaster throgh the current track to make it look like a switch track cominng off of the real coasters track.

Ok, thnx Metalhead!! But now the second question... Who know how to do that?

[pkiknex25]

It loooks like its only ride track. The three vertical supports are just Reverse Freefall track, and the rest is B&M track.

I do believe that the columns are actually elevator shafts.

Try that. The options.txt is in documents and settings> application data (it's a hidden folder, go to folder options under tools and hit toe view tab and enable veiwing of hidden folders and files)>atarti>rct3>options.txt. You may wish to open it with wordpad, then press enter on the last line and paste in what you want followed by a 1 to turn it on or a 0 to turn it off (should be spaced after the line). Just observe the current lines on there and note exactly how it's done, spaced, etc. Here's my options.txt just as a sample.

Beware that if you use this, it will overrite your regular settings (keyboard shortcuts, graphic settings, etc) and may not work with soaked.

Not working for me..after Application Data it only shows Microsoft..do I have to Re-Install RCT3?

[Dakanektr]

Hmm....I'll try that idea again, cuz when I did it before, it didn't work.

[coasteragent99]

It doesn't work with the one under the program files folder.

First, you may wish to install the patches (not sure if that works), otherwise, you may have to reinstall. And check to be sure that it isn't hidden either (I know, there's almost no chances of that, but just in case, when you've tried everything else)

Or maybe you simply looked into the wrong user's folder... Also, the directions are for winXP. I'm not sure where it is for older versions of windows.

[Metalhead]

It does not require you to reinstall rct3 but yoyur graphics and camera settings get set back to default.
