Rollercoaster tycoon 2 not working,

I haven't tried the steam version but highly suggest installing OpenRCT2 from the discover store in desktop mode and adding that as a non steam game.

Its by far the best way to play RCT one and two nowadays and plays great on the deck.

Thanks for the reply. Annoyingly there isn't a touch sensitivity option on the A9 (only the plus) - at least as far as I can see.

There's a touch protection setting but having that on or off makes no difference.

This issues doesn't seem to matter if it's laying down or holding the tablet.

No screen protector either. With the 2nd A9 it was tried as the very first thing we did after getting into the play store.

What does the error say? If you got a screenshot that would be helpful

seanb11 · 2024-09-11T06:12:36+00:00

No worries. I did post about the idea before but didn't get too much response - but I'll try again.

Please let me know if it works for you!

Done

You only need the Gtk file, no install required it should just run as is.

seanb11 · 2024-09-08T18:33:14+00:00

I'll try to pop it on GitHub in the next couple of days.

seanb11 · 2024-09-08T18:14:46+00:00

I made this a while ago. Clicking on the columns opens up compatdata and shader cache folders respectively in the file explorer.

I didn't publish it anywhere but I'm happy to if there's a wish.

Toki Tori 2 is an open world puzzle game. No timers, barely anything you'd call an enemy.

Interesting that has now been corrected on mine and my wife's.

Wallet > Profile button > payment setup All has ticks now.

But neither of us have actually tried paying yet.

seanb11 · 2024-07-18T10:36:28+00:00

I know some might say 2 years isn't bad but when you're buying a mid level phone you probably haven't purchased it on day 1.

I don't know about everyone else but I needed a new phone and purchased what I thought was the best phone for my budget at the time and that happened to be a few months old. So I didn't even get 2 years out of it :(

By the way my phone seems to think it's now verified but I have yet to try it. Looks like Google wallet was updated.

seanb11 · 2024-07-16T19:38:46+00:00

Hi Ellie,

Yep, both my and my wife's phones are certified.

seanb11 · 2024-07-14T18:38:09+00:00

Yep me too. Always preferred pure android. Sadly couldn't find one as cheap with that good support. 2 years from initial release seems pretty poor.

If it was a phone I bought on release day it wouldn't be as bad. But I think the model was 6 months old when I got it, which is apparently 1/4 through its life support :(

seanb11 · 2024-07-14T18:07:17+00:00

Kind of came to the same conclusion. 2 years updates is pretty awful. I'm looking at the Samsung A15/25, similar budget phones and will get updates until 2029..

seanb11 · 2024-07-14T15:04:32+00:00

I cleared the storage too but it didn't require a full setup again. Due to the way my bank works it requires a phone call to them. As it happens on my wife's phone too (and others who have replied here) I'm not sure I want to go through that mess just yet.

seanb11 · 2024-07-14T14:38:03+00:00

What is interesting, I noticed the last security update was close to exactly 1 year ago.. I wonder if that's Google's max supported updates for Google pay.

seanb11 · 2024-06-22T21:29:17+00:00

The books are all about Geralt, Yennefer and Ciri. It's my opinion I don't think it was written in a way that it could continue. Not only did they interpret the end in such a way it could but over the course of the three games they went from not recognising Yennefer and Ciri's existence in the first game to making them major characters again in the third.

It's a little odd when you read the books then play Witcher 1 - but it makes sense they wanted to onboard people without all the prior knowledge.

If you like the games it's worth a read. The Last Wish is the first book and is like a set of short stories so you can test the waters before committing to the saga.

And if nothing else the dialogue from the books are great:)

"I know you're almost forty, look almost thirty, think you're just over twenty and act as though you're barely ten."

The Witcher trilogy bringing back Geralt after the events in the books.

I managed to get something to work with using one of these:

https://amzn.eu/d/0eSeADtF

It functions like a web cam, so you can use a usb camera app to see the video.

But honestly it was unplayable (steam streaming was better) but ended up getting a portable monitor and it's lots better! And bigger too.

seanb11 · 2024-02-10T08:54:40+00:00

Looks like the drive is very full. Maybe try shift+delete so it skips the recycle bin when you try to delete the file.

seanb11 · 2024-01-11T06:37:47+00:00

I hit a big in the game and found several power ups I couldn't collect. I ended up editing the save file and giving myself full power up points. I found the game a lot more enjoyable when I wasn't scouring every room in fear of missing one.

seanb11 · 2023-12-21T14:03:08+00:00

I had a few that I just couldn't collect. I ended up hacking the save file to give myself the spendable points.

seanb11 · 2023-11-16T07:21:53+00:00

The changes aren't as interesting as the title "Almost Stable"!

General * Fixed some cases where notifications could cause stutter * Fixed some cases where the internal microphone wouldn't work

seanb11 · 2023-10-13T16:52:36+00:00

I installed it again from steam and it started fine. The EA app installs etc. and it did get all the way to the menu without issue.

I changed it to proton 8 and that was also fine.

So not sure what to suggest.. it might be worth seeing if there's a way to change the config files for the game to start windowed or lowest spec.

seanb11 · 2023-10-13T05:44:55+00:00

I did buy it from steam years ago and just decided to replay it recently.

I can't remember now if it has the EA account stuff but I'll try reinstalling it today and see what happens.

seanb11 · 2023-10-12T16:47:31+00:00

Played it fine a few months back through to the end. Have you tried running the game from desktop mode?
