What is a .FRW file?

An .FRW file is a special kind of computer file that is used by a video game called RollerCoaster Tycoon 3, which is a game where you can build and manage your own theme park. The game was made by a company called Atari. This .FRW file contains information about the fireworks that can be seen in the game. This includes how big the fireworks are, what colors they are, the sounds they make, and how many little sparks come out of them. There are different types of fireworks in the game, like blue fire flares and spiral fountains, and these files help the game know what each type should look like and sound like.

Unfortunately, the game RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and the program that can open these .FRW files are no longer being made or updated by Atari, which means they are discontinued. However, people who play the game can still use these files. Players can even make their own fireworks for the game by creating new .FRW files. To do this, they need to put their custom .FRW files into a specific folder on their computer where the game is installed. This folder is usually found at C:\Program Files\Atari\RollerCoaster Tycoon 3\Fireworks or C:\Program Files (x86)\Atari\RollerCoaster Tycoon 3\Fireworks if they are using a different version of Windows. Once the new .FRW files are placed in the "Fireworks" folder, the new fireworks will show up in the game, and players can use them in their theme park.
