RCT2: How to make custom signs

[Drkstarboard]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, anyone who knows, please share on how to make custom signs for RCT2. I'm begging you!!!

[Drkstarboard]

Anyone? Even if you just want to PM me on how to make them, then that will be alright.

Did you try google or any fan forums?

You make a regular ol' sign, but then edit the text to say whatever you want. Or if you place it against a ride structure/fence it will display the name of that ride.

No, I mean like the V2 or Déjà Vu sign for example. The "real" ride signs.

Well the first thing you need to do is download Dr. J's Object Creator, i find it kind of hard to find it on the web so ill post a link

A small tutorial:

Then you need to create a NW, NE, SW, SE views of what you are creating. Or you could create one view and rotate it. Make sure the picture that you make are in Bit-map file format!!! Usually when you rotate it it turs out a little better than when you dont. This is because the size/colors are the same. You can edit it in the window. Its a pretty basic program after you get the hang of it. After your done editing click the description button ( it looks like a pencil ). Fill in the information for American. Then go to edit tab and click copy to all other languages. Save as a .dat and put it in the folder

C:\Program Files\Infogrames Interactive\RollerCoaster Tycoon 2\ObjData

Then you have to go into RCT2 and go to custom scenery. Now I'm not sure what exactly to do, but I think it is pretty simple. I have not created any scenery for a LONG time.

Hope this helps!
