From Google: To fix RCT3's 16:9 aspect ratio, you need to manually edit the Options.txt file located in the game's configuration folder (usually found in your AppData directory on Windows) and change the Resolution value to your monitor's native 16:9 resolution, such as Resolution 1920 1080 for 1080p. Steps to fix the aspect ratio: Locate the Options.txt file: On Windows: Navigate to C:\\Users\\(your username)\\AppData\\Roaming\\Atari\\RCT3\\. If AppData is hidden: Go to "View" in the File Explorer and enable "Show hidden files" or hold the "Alt" key while using the "Go" menu in Finder to reveal the Library folder on Mac. Open the file: Open Options.txt with a text editor like Notepad. Edit the Resolution line: Find the line that begins with Resolution and change the existing values to your desired 16:9 resolution. For example, to set the game to 1920x1080, change the line to Resolution 1920 1080. Save the file: Save the Options.txt file and exit the text editor. Launch the game: The game will now launch with the new resolution set, allowing it to fit your 16:9 screen without stretching. **While it's been years since I played RCT3 of any type, these directions do sound familiar to what we had to do back then...

Ask Citytrader, he can probably recall what Taft was wearing that day...

How cool! The actors portraying the ringmaster and the actress playing the employee were both a bit on the 'hammy' side, but then that may well be appropriate for that. The idea for the show was good.

A: Ronald Reagan at the '84 Olympics in Los Angeles.

We visited Epic Universe on Sunday, the 21st of September. I'll echo Wowman's comments on exceptional look of the entire park, it really is gorgeous! The attention to detail is equal to Disney's in every way. Unfortunately I was still recovering from knee replacement surgery I had in mid-June, so I had to stay off most of the rides and all the coasters. My partner did ride many of them, other than Stardust Racers, which was closed because of the fatality that happened a couple days before, so most of my experience was just looking around. No Early Entry, no Express Passes, we arrived a few minutes after 9 am. Not knowing how the lines were filling up, we went to the Harry Potter section first, looked around and then saw that the MoM line was running at around 80 minutes, so decided to just go in and view the part of the queue open to the public - VERY IMPRESSIVE! The Floo Network was a great way to transport everyone to a different time/place in the Potterverse. While walking around a cast member told us that there were very few people on the single rider line, so my partner took off to try that...20 minutes later he was done. Yes, he missed much of the queue theming, but he said the ride itself was still worth it even without the queue...which was 200 minutes a little later. (An aside that I absolutely HATE/LOATH long queue times...it took us three visits over three years to ever make in onto Star Wars Rise of the Resistance after it opened, and that was when we visited DisneyLAND and scored a time slot to ride and not the WORLD where we usually go. If a queue time is much longer than 45 minutes and can't be accessed with Lightening Lane or similar we just wait until the next visit, and the prices for Universal Express Passes are a form of larceny in my opinion. Plus I really dislike the need nowadays to have one's nose glued to your phone... Admittedly we DID spring for Express Pass when we went to Busch Gardens, but that was because of iffy weather and were able to ride all the coasters.) Later in the day we saw Le Cirque Arcaus, which I thought was quite good although a little hammy with some of the acting. And had an early lunch at Le Goublet Noir, which was excellent. Lines for Butterbeer were long, so skipped that or the Butterbeer crepes. Took a look at Super Mario World...or what we could see beyond the massive hordes there. Way too crowded, way too long queue times, way too many stairs and lines for the elevators because of all the strollers. Try again next time... Dark Universe was my favorite, just for the ambience since I couldn't ride either attraction. My partner did and loved them both. Unfortunately it was a scorcher in the mid-90's that day and so we didn't hang around until evening when I know the area really shines. How To Train Your Dragon was so well themed. Long lines of course, but we did get to se the Untrainable Dragon show, which I thought was better than the one in Potterverse. The park is small enough that you can easily go back and forth between portals to snag lower wait times. While I didn't get to ride much of anything this time, I'm still glad to have had the chance to finally see it in person after following the progress since it was first announced. Next visit will be better I'm sure...

A seagull swallowed a seed, and then did what seagulls often do while flying over a ship that's aground...**PLOP**!!! Seed and fertilizer ready to take root!

All the OZ TMTK items have been made Public in the Workshop, also added some blueprints from OZ, DisneyAmerica, and Rose Lake that I did...

I started checking OZ TMTK items in the Workshop, and I so far from the first page I found of those all 300 items set to public, and available to look through and download if desired. There's 748 OZ items in total, so another 448 to look at, and most of them likely are set to public as well, but I'll check to make sure... Note that these items were made for our purposes, so not everything is perfect, some file sizes may be big, so take a moment to ponder before downloading, but you might find an item or two you could use and you are welcome to them. So far I've made just 78 TMTK items for my Mickey Mouse Park...so I really cut back! For those who recall our SGW days, I'm sort of the OSUDenny of Planet Coaster...LOL!

Funny, I often wonder where I am too...sometimes for months on end in fact! No gators nor amoebas sighted, although we did witness cast members capturing a rather large water snake that was attempting to slither across the ramp going down to the ferryboats. Ugh. Probably tried going around security check lines... Don't think it was Brazilian because it didn't seem to be holding a spot for 20 other snakes to jump in line with it later and wasn't chanting at full volume in Portuguese...

You mean the absence of cookie crumbs, unwashed laundry strewn around and the return of fume-free air quality tipped you off?

Sorry...escaped to one of my happy places for three weeks...a joint or two near the center of the State of Florida you might have heard of? Had a great time, but, as always, one has to return to real-life occasionally! My rear end grumbled the entire trip home, mostly about the terrible seat but about having to leave too I'm sure... Some of the OZ TMTK items are currently set to be viewed by the public, I'll try to add the rest if anyone cares to download! I might even bundle some of the non-OZ specific ones into downloadable zip files. Most - but certainly not all - are Oz specific, but there a few things that might find a use in other themes. On the Workshop almost all of them are identified with the prefix "OZ", and they show up when doing a search for "Oz" under the TMTK tab. There are a few billboards used in the park, there's also some TMTK items shaped and sized to match billboards and used instead in an attempt to get around the problem with having a large number of billboards experienced by some. The rest were indeed TMTK items Many of the signs were created using a great site called Kittl.com...I highly recommend them. They had a huge selection of fonts, graphics, and templates available to use, you can even upload your own images to insert into your designs. It's free to use for a limited number of designs (of course if you create, download and then delete a design you available count goes back up, but I didn't tell you that... If a dummy like me can come up with halfway decent signage, just think what some of you can do!

Huh? Never knew that he did! BUT...I don't think this question would have come up without just a little truth behind it... I'm not sure they had people make multiple appearances either, so I'll go out on a limb and make a guess... B: 1

Much better I think. The old upper logo kind of got lost. I really like the new color scheme on the sign, the font is much better. I actually like it with the black background, although the white background on the old sign did stand out more... The topiaries do go along with the over-all WW theme I think, but not sure if anything else would work too...

Anyone hear how many new scenery pieces there are? The kiddie coaster is nice to have, the motorbike coaster has somewhat limited uses, the other coaster was okay. The Soarin' theater helps fill a void (but just a regular theater seating would be more useful I think...), the giant swing thingy doesn't, so it kind of depends on what scenery pieces are coming as to whether the US$12.99 price tag is worth it or not... From the video some of the scenery looked somewhat similar to what we had in PC1, but some of it didn't, there definitely is new stuff, and the textures looked much better this time. So we'll see. I won't be throwing my money at them the first day it's out as some of the fanboi's are stating, that's for sure. Lessons learned...

I see someone rounded up the stray watermelons that have been left all over the place. "Silence of the Lamps" might turn some people 'off'...some people 'on'...hopefully nobody blows a fuse over it... Uncle Walt looks pretty good for being on ice all these years! No freezer burn it seems... And the entrance looks great too...

Nobody makes JB type comments like JB, but you did good! LOL! I looked on a screen that I didn't use from slightly different angle because it DOES look like a fish...but turned out to be a bird, facing away from us and it's wings form the fins and tail at that angle...weird!

Yet once again (I know...*groan*...) we head back for our tour! The next area was something I came up with to fill a large empty spot on the bench. I had seen a really fantastic blueprint of the Toy Story Mania ride at DisneySea in Japan by Banjotails , but it didn't really fit into that space, so I moved some parts of the blueprint around, duplicated a section, rotated it and added it on. There wasn't enough room to add an actual ride, but I came up with the idea of turning it into "Animation Plaza", a spot dedicated to Disney animation where there are character meet & greets, classes on drawing characters, and a theater showing Disney shorts. There's also a cafe, shopping, and restroom facilities. So while the basic structure maintains all of Banjotails clever designs, it serves a very different purpose here... Inside the main gate there's a plaza (duh...)... To the left the Big Cheese is waiting to greet you... To the right Minnie and Pluto are on stage. There's also restrooms and Clara Cluck's Nursery for "Lil' Peeps" Just past Mickey is Claribelle's Cafe... There's outdoor seating, and at the end is a stage where you can meet Donald Duck. Portraits of famous Disney characters line the walls... On the opposite wall movie posters from Disney's feature films are displayed... Of course there's a small shop selling Disney apparel and other themed items... Next door is the entrance to the Mickey Mouse Theater, which shows many Mickey Mouse and other Disney animated shorts... Looks like "Puppy Love" and "Plane Crazy" are today's features... Next door there's two Animation Studios, one where you learn how animation is created, the other where you learn to draw different Disney characters yourself... Through the portal you come to a secluded courtyard with food and beverage vendors, lot's of benches, and an antique pipe organ playing familiar Disney tunes... The exit from the Mickey Mouse Theater is also here... The tour continues...

One guess is as good as any other on this one I think...so I'll go with C: Norville Rogers...just to be different and cover the bases. And it's no wonder he goes by 'Shaggy"! "Zoinks!"

I think Wanda has plenty of 'proof'...probably fortified wine there.

I see them! Wow...you've really captured the richness of that regions architecture! Even the stone steps on either side of the lift hill are great details Very nice work!

There's a lot going on up in those trees! They turned out great!

Hey! I spotted one of them elephants where you can stick your kid inside while you enjoy the ride!

Maybe an OZ ATTRACTION...of course it would end up being an entire park... LOL!

Very nice, the Exhibition 77 building is well done and yes, it does fit that space better I think. Nice coaster and it fit into that small space perfectly!

Well, NOW we can have Yellow Brick Roads without making them in TMTK...
