Copying Roller Coasters from RCT2 to RCT3

[CoasterBuff]

I have tried to copy some of my designs that I made in RCT2 over to RCT3, but am having problems.
I have copied the caoaster files from RCT2 into my Coasters Folder of RCT3, which is within My Doccuments Folder, placed there, when I installed.
Yet when I go into the Coaster Buider of RCT3, my coasters from RCT2 are not listed.
Yet I have followed the intructions on how to do this from the user manual that came with RCT3.
What am I doing wrong?

Taken from FAQ above:

How do I import my RCT 1 and 2 coasters into RCT3?

To import tracks from previous RCT games click on the Import Tracks button in the rides menu (It is the bottom button). You then need to use drop down box to select the drive with your track designed on (This is usually C:\). Then click on the search button. RCT3 will then search that drive for any previous track designs. This can take some time depending on your machine specifications and the size of your hard drive. The great majority of tracks will work with no problems – there are some differences in the physics (e.g. friction values) between RCT3 and the previous games which may mean you have to tweak your designs in some rare cases. If you find you are having problems then there are a couple of cheats added to UPDATE 1a which could help you: Rename any peep ‘Andrew Thomas’ to reduce the friction in RCT3. Rename any peep ‘Andrew Gillett’ sets friction in RCT3 to zero. Like all cheats, they are operative for the current game session only.

Frontier put quite a few usefull suggestions in there - it is worth reading :)

Import Tracks Button ?

There is no Import Tracks Button in the Rides List of RCT3. If there is, Where?

Please explain a bit more clearly.

Yes there is:

Bottom button in new menu when you click rides pic of spanner & whatever that other thing is :)

Available in all modes except coaster designer.

Thank's Silkius. No wonder I was baffled, I was looking in the Coaster Builder Mode.:confused:

Thick or what :o:
