Selected Test Results (selected in 'Test Results' table below)

What works

  • Setup works flawlessly without problem;
  • Game will now load, bug #20210 has been fixed in 1.1.43;
  • All menu items worked OK, rides, attractions and other items within the park build OK. Ride/person/other options work as expected;
  • Individuals in the park look fine and as expected, no graphical problems.
  • Widescreen HD mode (1920x1080) as enabled by editing the options.txt file in ~/.wine/users//Application Data/Atari/RCT3 works flawlessly.


What does not

  • Cursor will disappear during gameplay, making selecting items near impossible.
  • Game suffers some slow down with lots of items due to lighting/textures at night-time even with a high end graphics card.
  • Background music does not play for rides (optional, not essential to gameplay).


What was not tested

  • Completing scenario mode.

How-to: Install Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 on ubuntu with an nvidia optimus enabled graphics card

This is a how-to I posted over on shyguy's world on installing RCT3 when you have an nvidia optimus enabled graphics card.

Get background music/menu music etc. working

Posted by Sander on Friday March 2nd 2012, 18:20
MP3 background music works fine.
Convert all music in /Atari/RollerCoaster Tycoon 3/Music/ to mp3 using ffmpeg. Then replace .wma with .mp3 in MusicGenre.txt

Enjoy :)

I will post a more in depth how to tomorrow when i have time.

however i did do a quick test with summerair.wma which is the default music and it seemed to work.


 
ATI Video Cards with closed drivers
by Thomas R. on Monday July 11th 2011, 19:17
If you use an ATI card and the closed source drivers, make sure you have at least 11.6, else you will see crashes.

 
Mac Support

Please note that improving Mac Compatibility for RCT3 is taking a back burner as this game has now been released as a native Mac application as seen here:

Graphical glitches
by Darkd on Saturday February 2nd 2013, 5:16
I'm currently having graphical glitches on wine 1.5.22.
Planes with textures randomly appear on screen, it makes game unpleasant to play.
I'm using Sandy-bridge integrated intel graphics, 2.20.13 xf86-video-intel and 3.7.4 kernel.
Has anyone found a solution for this problem?

test in progress

Games works quite well (expect for queque sign bug and music). However, a workaround to hear the music exist - BUT - it breaks the game (installing mplayer9, quartz and devenum via winetricks) and the wine prefix (wine crash). Somebody tried to convert .wma's in .mp3 and see if they work?
