OpenTPW: reimplementing Theme Park World

OpenTPW reimplements Bullfrog's 1999 game Theme Park World, also released as Sim Theme Park. It needs a full copy of the original game and its assets. The project page says the project is early and not playable yet. Texture, settings, sound, and string formats are marked implemented. Models, map data, ride scripts, and saves are partial. Fonts, lip sync, materials, and video are not implemented. Format notes are at opentpw.gu3.me/formats.
