RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 is a strategy and simulation computer game. It is the third installment in the RollerCoaster Tycoon series, first released on October 26, 2004 in North America. RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 places players in charge of managing amusement parks; rides can be built or demolished, terrain and scenery can be adjusted, and prices can be controlled to keep visitors or "peeps" happy.
RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 features two methods of gameplay. In career mode, players must complete predetermined objectives in predesigned scenarios. In the new sandbox mode, players have unlimited time and money to create their own custom parks. New features include the ability to import and export custom attractions, design custom scenarios and peeps, as well as design an in-game recorder and a fully three dimensional world players can view from all angles.
Widescreen support was added in the "Soaked" expansion pack.

Solutions & Issues
It only allows you to select widescreen resolutions if it detects your monitor as supporting them. Though you can get around this by editing Options.txt in your C:\Documents and Settings\[your username]\Application Data\Atari\RCT3\ folder, and adding the line Resolution X Y, replacing X with desired width and Y with height.
Edit Options file in User\AppData\Roaming\Atari\RCT3 with the desired resolution.
Loading screen is cropped, because it appears much higher than the monitor can reach.
The menus appears a bit small, but is usable.
