Download OpenRCT2 0.4.5

Version 0.4.5 of OpenRCT2 has been released, the open source version of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2. The project tries to be as similar to the original as possible, but is written in a modern language which allows extensions and improvements. This makes it comparable to, for example, OpenTTD. To be able to play it, it is necessary to have the original game, because it requires sound files and images, among other things. Since version 0.4.0 there is a new file format with which the game is saved. This expands various limits, such as the size of the playing fields and the number of carts in the rides.
