RCT Explorer.
As I promised you all I have another review lined up and here it
is! and you're reading it! wahay!
So on with the review;
RCT Explorer is a small program with allows you easily search
out and "explore" your own saved game and ride track
files. For example, you want to find out information about
Mala's Mountain Beach. You search for it on the left-hand side
through your files and once found RCT Explorer will give you
selected information on it. e.g. (as well as size and last
modified)
File Name : Mountain Beach by Adam Malawista.SV4
Version: Loopy Landscapes
Scenario: Mega Park
Date: April 23, year 26
Rating: 999
Cash: $95,177,767

RCT Explorer doesn't just do saved games! It also has
information on your ride files as well, again, for example, I
want to find my track design "Red Devil" (as used in
WW Metro), I search for it as normal and once found RCT Explorer
gives me a list of information. e.g.
File Name : Red Devil.TD4
Version: Loopy Landscapes
Type: Suspended Looping Roller Coaster
Excitement: 7.40
Intensity: 9.20
Nausea: 7.20
Length: 1,824 ft, (556 meters)
nice eh?
There are some letdowns however. The information is given out in
a very dull and boring way, no pretty colours or sparkly fairy
lights. Also once you exit the program and re-enter your route
to your files is forgotten leaving you to find your way through
again. Irritating to say the least.

Summary
Anyway, RCT Explorer
does its job with a no-frills style. No tassels or nothing.
A nice program with scope for improvement.
