downloading Q - How to install for ZT1 and ZT2

Are you asking for ZT1 or ZT2?

 

For ZT1:

Almost every item that you download will be zipped (all of Tek Phoenix's should be zipped, but some sites don't zip theirs), so the first step is to unzip your item. You'll now have a .ztd file, and possibly a text and picture file. Any .txt or .jpg you see are just for your information, and you can put them anywhere you like. The .ztd file goes in your game slightly differently if you don't have the Complete Collection, so I'll tell you both ways:

 

If you have CC, the .ztd goes in your dlupdate folder, usually found here:

C:/Program Files/Microsoft Games/Zoo Tycoon/dlupdate folder

 

 

Ok lets do this step by step

 

unzip files

 

go to control panel find microsoft zoo tycoon program

 

open insert unzipped files into dlupdate folder

 

am I correct so far ? because heres the problem I try to open that file and I get an uninstall/

restall zoo tycoon screen

 

so where have I messed up?

You don't open them into the folder if you've already unzipped them, just put the ztds into your dlupdate folder.

There is another way to add them, but it's incredibly inefficient:

 

After you unzip your files, add them using the game. Once you load ZT, look at the main screen and there will be an option that says something like Look For New Updates. You just tell the game where to look, and all of the items you select will be added. The problem is that it's not easy to keep your files organized this way, and that the game just copies those files - it doesn't move them.

I just re installed ZT to my computer, and downloaded a few things. When i tried to unzip these files and add them into my game they are not saving as .ZTD. And not showing up in game. What should I do? This has never happened before. When i download somthing it automatically saves under My downloads then i manually un zip them and add them to my game.

Could you tell me a few of the names of the items you downloaded, or a link?

I dowloaded almost 200 things from this website...everything I downloaded was not saving right, as a ZTD so I think it may be something with my computer..any ideas?
