Re: Any scenarios I might not have played to be recommended

I played Age of Steam I and III, liked those, did not like IV and quit given the 50 load requirement. Gould's mopac was a challenge but pulled it off. Tried one of the anders maps but after a while when it was clear i'd make the gold given enough time I stopped. I beat Conquerring the Sierras but th...

Any scenarios I might not have played to be recommended

I have not played in about ten years. Looked at the scenarious, especially in the North America section. Those that look intriguing are not as well thought out. Eg in the Conquering Sierras scenario, I dont think its really possible to have more loads than the Southern Pacific. Anyway, any scenarios...

Re: Railway Empire

Hey everyone, I reinstalled railroad tycoon 3 in hopes of finding a few scenarios I had not yet played to get my fix. So far have my doubts about what is available. Anyway I was perusing this forum and saw this. I played railway empire for a bit but eventually tossed it. I like the signal system in ...

Re: Egypt - 1855

Fair enough.
Just finished this scenraio. Won gold second time around on Expert. First time was bronze, but that was only because the book value was under 75m, as I met all other requirements for silver.
Anyway, really great map. Would love to see what others you have done.

Re: Egypt - 1855

Playing this now. Wondering if alcohol should be taken off the board. It was not banned until recently. Indeed, alcohol has existed there since Ancient Egyptian civilization.

Re: Defect in Rule the Rockies

Thanks for that. Glad I spotted something that needed to be addressed. I will check out the map soon. If anyone else tests it and has feedback, that would be great as well.

Thanks for responding. I am not sure why the gold medal fires, but it does. How can this be remedied?

Even the slow horse finishes the race. I think I have it. Never had that problem before with program files. Program files 86, yes.

Re: Multiple Installations of Railroad Tycoon 3

I fixed it (i think). The c-t-c patch was going to program files, not program files 86.

Re: Multiple Installations of Railroad Tycoon 3

Well, uninstalled it all, reinstalled, in same order. To wit 1) rt3 2) c-t-c 3) 1.05 4) cd crack. No dice, when I load up, it states version 1.05 but without the coast to coast emblem. So if i cannot fix this I am abandoning my short lived bid to play this game again.

Re: Multiple Installations of Railroad Tycoon 3

With all due respect, its not Coast to Coast. I installed Rt3, c-t-c, 1.5 in that order. Then installed the cd crack. Then copied and pasted that folder to a new separate location for 1.6. 1.5 works fine. 1.6 does not. EDIT: just reran 1.5. I don't see the coast to coast emblem. Will uninstall than ...

Multiple Installations are absolutely necessary

Just thought I would chime in that user maps I downloaded caused the game to crash because I did not, as Hawk advised, created multiple installations. After swiping clean and reinstalled to only 1.5, it works. Now have two installations and will give the 1.6 stuff a go. I feel it has not bee made su...

Re: Need help for Patch 1.06

Update--the crack to eliminate the need for the cd is essential for the 1.06 patch, at least if your "play cd" is mia. Thanks.

Re: Need help for Patch 1.06

I am going to uninstall the steam installation, reinstall up to 1.05, then redownload the 1.06 zip. I think the 1.06 may be corrupt
