I broke my RCT3 disc but I have the soaked expan pack, shouldn't it be able to work without the original disc? I installed the soaked before the RCT3 disc broke. I remembered reading on the box that it was supposed to be able to work without the original disc. Im going through RCT3 withdrawals. I even had dreams bout it, not kidding you. HELP ME SOMEONE.

I thought you could only run the game with the original disk.

Unlike the first two RCT games, this one you need to have the original disc.

You need either the wild or regular disk. If you use the wild disk, it opens the installer instead of the autoplay, so you'll have to close the installer and run the game from the exe or a shortcut to it.

Of course, next time it's better to be careful and not throw the disk on the floor and roll over it with the chair.

no, on RTC2 you need the original disk to run the game, the expansions do what they are called, expand, they dont run the game
