I'm currently on Year 2 of my latest freeform zoo. 15 species and filled up the map on City Zoo M. I was going for orderly but not precisely symmetrical.

Was goofing around with the Restorer's allosaurus and this big guy came about. Skin and model edits by me :p

Quiero el juego de zoo tycon con sus dos expanciones, saben donde

Latest zoo build where I managed to fit 20 endangered species on a medium map and, for the first time, unlocked the baby animals statue :D

Oigan de pura casualidad Alguien sabe cómo arreglar esta cosa, estoy queriendo meter unos Mods de animales a mi zoo tycoon 2 y vienen con el archivo lang en el número 1033, pero como lo tengo en español, me dijo un amigo que lo tengo que pasar a 3082 para Que aparezca porque si no lo cambio aparece Sin nombre, pero no sé por qué, no están apareciendo las cosas que instaló aunque cambie el nombre del archivo que está dentro de la carpeta lang,

Si ya cambié el nombre de la carpeta Lang de 1033 a 3082.

Alguien sabrá Cuál es la solución para que las cosas que quiero meter aparezcan???

Im doing the ultimate zoo challenge and having such an impossible time with guest happiness, i cant seem to go higher than 91 when I need 93. Im in year 10 of the game, I added some screenshots of my zoo because maybe theres something im not seeing??

Currently stuck on Preservation Jam - East Africa. Im able to do all the challenges but keep getting stuck on “Obscure Offspring” which is 2 babies from endangered species being born in the zoo. For whatever reason my rhino doesn’t get pregnant until the last couple of minutes and my bear never gets pregnant. Only the lions ever give birth. I’m also stuck on “Conservation Watchers” which is getting guest rating to 10k. The most I can seem to do is 8500-9k 🙄 so I would appreciate any tips or strategies please!!

Hello. I've previously shared other mods I've made for ZT1 like the Invisible Fences Cheat Code, a UFO Ride and Balloon Animal Stand, and an Atlantean Fountain. I also own and run ZooBerry.

So these are Mexican food stands inspired by a lot of the awesome food I grew up with as a kid. From left to right in the picture the stands sell: pan de muertos, champurrado, tamales, churros, conchas (shhh, I will not hear it), pozole, street tacos, and chimichangas.

This pack will sort of be a living project where I add new sets of content over time, hence the weird name on the download page.

Tools used: Blender v4.1, Zoot 1.1, and VS Code

Hi all,

This scenario is NOT intermediate, I'm having no issue with the advanced scenarios but this one I've been avoiding like the plague. I can be swimming in money on the other ones after 1 year but I cannot get this stupid show zoo to make a profit.

I've done four attempts, including:

- Swim Shacks (sometimes they're popular, sometimes NO ONE uses them, I'm not sure where to place them for the best results)

- Restaurants

- Two animals per show tank (I've arranged the zoo with 2 tank-show-tank rows perpendicular to the entrance with a central strip with the restaurant/swim shack/ice cream/etc)

For some reason I can't get guest happiness up or make a profit, if anything the shows actively LOWER the average guest happiness (even without angry/hungry/etc guests). Literally worst way to make money in this game. I can easily hit the $500 goals but still end up in a deficit; I think its partly due to tank filters but if I get rid of those then animals get sick/guest happiness goes down again.

Lowkey I struggle with the marine mania parks in general, I was wondering if there are any more tips or just a step by step walkthrough cause I'm tired of trying to find creative solutions I just wanna appease my inner perfectionist and finish every scenario after having the game for like 20 years lmao (or at least re-downloading it after a ten year hiatus).

And seriously how tf do you get the swim shacks to work I've put up buoy fences, set them near restaurants and all.

This is just something I found out in zt2 that I never noticed before. I was in first person looking for fossils while a thylacine interacted with a rattle ball, and made the same roar sound that the lions and tigers make! I know they're sometimes called "tasmanian tigers" but, aren't they marsupials? Might we even know what a real one sounded like, since the last one only went extinct in 1936?

I just thought it was a bit silly xD

Are there any guides for how the inner mechanisms of the game work? I started replaying last night and I am struggling through the campaign mode because I’m having such a hard time bringing in money

Pretty soon every guest in my zoo is going to end up here... I really don't want to move every single guest before deleting whatever it is in this area... I tried switching the exhibit animal and I removed the pond but nothing matters to these freaks

Edit: okay I seem to have fixed the problem... I figured the guests are probably telling me where they think the path should naturally be. This corner is fairly close to the exit and after traipsing around my zoo forever they just wanna gtfo already. so I split this exhibit down the middle and built a path to the exit and yep there they are, leaving in single file fashion straight to the exit

Hello, I was looking for the complete collection on auctions and I found that someone was selling one in my country. The price is quite high and I dont want to spend money for nothing, so I'm not sure if its worth it.

The thing that got me alarmed was that the CD on the photo had the marine mania logo on it. Is this how the CD should look like, or is it a scam?

I just rediscovered my Ultimate collection of Zoo Tycoon 2 on disks and wanted to play again, but I cannot get this to run for the life of me. I found some guides on how to install it from abandonware downloads but not how to get it from the disks. I'm not overly familiar with Wine and Lutris either and I got it into a directory once and copied all the files from the disks onto my drive and then the install wizard ran until a point where it said "publishing product information" and after it was stuck there I can't get it to work anymore at all.

If someone could explain this to me like I am 80 years old and have trouble using a TV remote that would be great. Assume I only know the terminology of things that are written on the screen when I open the corresponding program

Really enjoyed making it : D

Personally, I prefer the JWE Series system. While I miss the Zookeeper mode in modern Zoo Games, I really like the Formation Element of the JWE System. My Dream in a potential future Paleo Zoo Builder would be a mixture of the two ( You choose formations from a map, then dig through fossils like in Zoo Tycoon 2, In first person mode )

I've been looking for mods that add new terrariums/ bug houses to the game. Every time I try to find one I only find animal shelters.

I am currently working on a pack of ambient animals in the vanilla style that are coded for both the usual and RR biomes. In addition to many prehistoric ambients (I wanted them for the extinct zoo I am building) I have re-skinned the VultureKing to actually look like a king vulture and re-used the vanilla vulture skin for a new animal - the turkey vulture.

So far I have encountered the new king vulture, turkey vulture, teratornis, pteranodon, Istiodactylus, Lesothosaurus, and Sinornithosaurus in game. Alas I haven't been able to get in game images of all of them.

The list of ambients by biome is...

Albertadromeus (tundra, boreal)

Archaeopteyx (benthic, coastal, pelagic, reef, scrub, tropical dry forest)

Arctic Ground Squirrel (alpine, tundra, steppetundra)

Champsosaurus (Freshwater, wetlands)

Compsognathus (benthic, coastal, pelagic, reef, scrub, tropical dry forest)

Greater Jerboa (cold desert, steppetundra)

Istiodactylus (alpine, boreal, temperateforest, grassland, montane, savannah, scrub)

Leptictidium/Gypsonictops (Tropical rain forest, Tropical dry forest, Wetlands)

Lesothosaurus (grassland, savanna, scrub, hot desert, meditternian)

Orodromeus (alpine, montane)

Pteranodon (benthic, coastal, pelagic, reef, freashwater, meditteranian)

Quetzalcoatlus (alpine, montane, freshwater, Tropical dry forest, tropical rainforest, wetlands)

Sinosauropteryx (freshwater, wetlands, tropical forest)

TeratornisTeratornis merriami (montane, grassland, mediterranean, steppetundra)

Tianylong (tropical rain and dry forest, Wetlands, Teperate forests)

Turkey Vulture (cold desert, boreal, hot desert, savanna, temperate forest, wetlands)

So is the community interested in this pack enough for me to release it?

Expansion pack: Dinosaur Digs & Marine Mania

World/Scenario: Southeast Asian Zoo

Proud of this one! Only Southeast Asian animals and even all the buildings are complimentary to that environment (except for that koala bear gift shop ugh) as well as the decor (well most if not all of it anyway) I tried my best

I imagine as a guest, navigation is very intuitive and everything you need is along the way! You can't see all the stone benches at this angle but they're there :)

Happy to say this scenario has been won✅️
