I'm just curious if there's still any RCT2 players around.

Im trying to play rct2 but im getting an error. 0x80073712 to be exact.

That error code is generally associated with a Windows Update error.
What Operating System are you running?

I am Running windows 8.1

A Google search does indicate that error code is typical for 8.1, but Patch Tuesday isn't until next week, the second Tuesday of the month.
Strange that you're getting it now.
Do you get any additional information with that error code, like

Code:

ERROR_SXS_COMPONENT_STORE_CORRUPT

Do you only get it running RCT2?

I'm surprised RCT2 even runs on 8.1. Win 8.1 usually doesn't like older games.

Welcome Hawk! Always great to see "new" RCT2 players visiting RCTgo. I'm looking forward to seeing some of your creations. My RCT2 coasterdesigns can be found in this thread.

I've already downloaded one of your tracks. The Pharaoh Frenzy. Looking forward to trying it out. I like the screenshot. It's a bit different.

I've uploaded 3 of my tracks so far. I still have 3 to go.

I have a couple scenarios but I'm not sure if they're ready for prime time so I've PM'd the admin to see if i can upload them here for beta testing or if I should add them to my site and link to them in a post.
Waiting to hear back from him.

I play all 3 RCT games, though pretty much only for fun. I don't upload any of my projects very frequently, though I can give some very helpful tips for anything within these 3 games

though I can give some very helpful tips for anything within these 3 games

I'll keep that in mind if I stumble on anything that gets me stuck.

I just downloaded RCT2 last month, and I've been working on completing all the objectives. I miss the simplicity of the older games!
