Even on that system performance was only acceptable at the lowest screen size (640x480). Every system I tried the game on had a least double the recommended processor speed but the only system where I saw decent performance was a 800 MHz Pentium III with a top-of-the-line Voodoo card. The listed systems requirements (Windows 95/98/ME, Pentium 233 MMX or faster, 32 MB RAM, 4X CD-ROM, and DirectX 7.0a or later) aren’t all that demanding, but frankly I don’t believe them. Add to that audio that is constantly stuttering and looping and you’ve got an experience that is akin to when I tried playing Under a Killing Moon on my 486/66 My system cranks out a frame rate of well over 60 FPS (frames per second) playing Quake III at 1024x768 with all the detail options at max, but SimCoaster was hard pressed to do 15 FPS at 640x480 at its medium quality setting. The textures are fairly simple and the roller coasters and other attractions look blocky when you select the "Ride" option to get a virtual experience. The truly sad thing about the poor graphics performance is that the 3D modeling doesn’t look all that complicated. These are words you don’t want associated with the audio and video in your games, but that’s exactly what you’ll see here. Once you’ve created that masterpiece you can take it into your theme park and let your customers go for a spin (if the budget can handle the expense). Here you get to take all the track styles in the game and concoct scream machines from your own twisted imagination. When you’re not working on building your park's value and popularity you can spend time in the Coaster Design Kit. The overall skills (landscaping, water drainage, etc) can be used across the parks, but after I researched a hot dog stand in one park I still had to spend the time and cash to research it again in the next. My one big complaint with the park research model is that things don’t always move from one park to the next. Failure to keep up with the competition will cause your guests to leave for other parks.

If the above sounds complicated, it sort of is and it takes some effort to get this working but the good thing is that you only need to setup the software once and once you understand the concept behind virtual CD files (otherwise known as CD Images) and how to load/mount them to run in a Virtual CD Drive, it will be much easier to run these games in the future.On top of the other challenges you have to keep your research staff busy coming up with new rides and improvements for your existing ones.

You will of course need a PC with a CD or DVD Burner and a blank disc. The software BlindWrite or Alcohol 120% works well for this. To write this file to a real CD-ROM Disc ,you'll need software that supports B6T (which is a BlindWrite format).

VirtualCloneDrive is a great program for ISO and BIN files (without audio tracks), but sadly does not support B6T. There is Alcohol 52% as well that just does the virtual CD drive stuff. I suggest using Alcohol 120% or Daemon-Tools Lite to 'mount' the B6T file in a Virtual CD drive. To use B6T you need to understand that this is a whole CD in a file and needs to be either written to a real CD-ROM disc OR as more commonly done these days, use an emulator to load a virtual disc on your PC.
