 +
}}
  
===Black Screens===
+
===Black screen when running game===
A common problem with new computers is a black screen when attempting to run the game. Updating drivers often solves the problem, however this problem is commonly caused by the computer having too high a resolution set. Turning down the resolution is often successful.  
+
{{ii}} Commonly occurs on modern PCs.
  
===.dll not found===
+
{{Fixbox|description=Update the GPU's drivers|ref={{cn|date=July 2016}}}}
One common problem that is a result of certain newer OS changes regarding .dll handling is the error:
+
{{Fixbox|description=Lower the desktop resolution|ref={{cn|date=July 2016}}}}
LpkPresent not found in usp10.dll
 
A simple fix is to navigate to the core folder, and rename the file ''usp10.dll'' to ''_usp10.dll'' . This forces the OS to run its own stored copy of the .dll, which often solves this problem.
 
  
==Known Cheats==

===Game runs to fast and becomes unplayable===
 +
{{ii}} Occurs on high framerates.

* Holding down the keys Left Shift, Left Ctrl and Left Alt is known to increase the number of new park visitors arriving.
+
==="Correct disk is not in the drive" error during installation===
* When a visitor is playing on an attraction, you can raise the price of it while they are playing, and they will play the higher cost when they finish. The game decides whether or not to play based on the cost ''before'' playing it, but actually pays for the game ''after'' playing it.  
+
{{ii}} Occurs under Windows XP Home due to a conflict with the game's SafeDisc copy protection.

* Within the ~/data/levels there is a file called ''standard.sam'', which can be opened using a standard text editor. There are various attributes that can be changed within this file:
+
===LpkPresent not found in usp10.dll===
** Locate the string PeepInfo.MinimumEntryFee and change the value to something high. As long as your entry cost is ''lower'' than this value, the peeps will ''always'' enter without qualms. This is an easy way of increasing your funds.
+
{{ii}} This error message is caused by an older version of {{file|usp10.dll}} being used by the game.
** Locate the string Arrival.MinPeople and also increase the value. This will change the minimum number of guests that can be dropped off, and is very useful when going for the attendance based Golden Tickets.
 
** Locate the bank balance section and change the value of the starting value from 50000 to something higher. This will increase the ''starting balance'' for parks. This must be done ''before'' starting a new park for the value to be used.
 
  
* Within the ~/data/levels/space folder, there is a file called ''global.sam'', which can be opened using a standard text editor.  
+
{{Fixbox|description=Delete game's {{file|usp10.dll}}|ref={{cn|date=July 2016}}|fix=
** Locate the string keys.to.enter and change the value to 1, to allow immediate access to the park. This can be applied to the World of Wonders park as well.
+

# Delete or rename {{file|usp10.dll}}.
  
==Unlocking New Parks==
+
'''Notes'''
===Golden Keys===
+
{{ii}} Deletion of {{file|usp10.dll}} forces the game to use the Windows version of the DLL.
The game implements a golden key reward scheme that must be used to unlock new worlds. You begin a new map with $50,000 in the bank, and you start the game with 1 Golden Key, which can be used to unlock either the "Lost Kingdom" or "Halloween" world. This will not however use up the key.

===Golden Tickets===
+
===Mouse issues in VMware Workstation/Player===
 +
{{ii}} May occur on Workstation/Player 14 and Windows 98 to Windows XP as guest.
  
There is only one way of obtaining Golden Keys, and that is with winning Golden Tickets. Golden Tickets can be won in all parks, and the player wins them by meeting certain criteria. The player must obtain 3 Tickets to win a Golden Key, but the player can also spend these tickets on special rides. The rides attributes are hidden and must be unlocked using the tickets.
+
{{Fixbox|description=Disable or uninstall the mouse drivers on the guest|ref={{cn|date=November 2018}}}}
  
One common misconception is that the player must earn 3 tickets without spending them in order to win a Golden Key. However the game records how many tickets you have won, and will always reward the ''3rd'' ticket won, regardless of how many the player currently has. This means that spending the tickets has no effect on Key generation.
