  1. Dinosaur Digs Combined Realism Hack by VNDragon

    Description:
    Many Dinosaur Digs hacks in the past modify the same ".ai" files of the animals/items, making these hacks incompatible to one another.  This hack aims to unify and update the features found in those hacks to offer you the ultimate package that improves your overall Dinosaur Digs experience while getting as close as possible to the scientific rigor of 2020 palaeontology.
     
    List of older hacks incorporated in this package:
    - No Grass, Please! by P.Rex and Vondell.
    - Larger Triceratops by P.Rex.
    - Reality Hack by Wolv12 (Some elements, not the entire hack, were incorporated to complement "No Grass, Please!").
    - DDvarPatch by Borsato.
    - No Egg Hack + Attractiveness Boost Hack by Penguino.
     
    New features include (but are not limited to) a new diet for Caudipteryx, new purchase icons to match the animals' new terrain preferences, and having more dinosaurs capable of eating guests! 
    For a full list of features along with a detailed installation guide, please check the text files inside the zip.
    For extra screenshots, details, and any feedbacks/bug reports, please notify me through this topic:

  2. UI Hack - Dream Emerald UI

    This is a total User Interface replacement mod for Zoo Tycoon 1 Complete Collection.  This mod was designed for widescreens but will work in any screen resolution.
     
    This mod is technically a hack, because it modifies game files.  It will not work with other mods that modify these same files.  The files that it modifies are pretty much every UI template in the game.  Fortunately, very few mods have ever used these files.  As of right now, there are only 3 other mods that are known to modify any of these files, and those mods are Jay's Purchase Babies Hack, Jay's Developer Menu Hack, and Jay's Developer Map Editor.  So I made my UI mod compatible with all 3 of those hacks.  In the case of Jay's Purchase Babies Hack, I have integrated it fully into this mod.  But with Jay's Developer Menu Hack, and Jay's Developer Map Editor Hack you still need to download his mods or they won't work.
     
    One other note:  This UI mod will not affect your zoos, or your old saved games, so you can uninstall it at anytime, and it will not cause any issues.
     
    Instructions:
    (Remember to uninstall any other particleUI mods first!  This mod replaces all my other UI mods!)
     
    To install this mod by itself:  Just put the file named particleUI_DreamEmerald_v1.ztd into your "dlupdate" folder. 
     
    If you wish to use Jay's Hacks:  Just put the file named particleUI_DreamEmerald_x1.ztd into the same folder.
     
    If you are using Jay's Developer Menu Hack (developerMenuHack.ztd) or Jay's Developer Map Editor (developerMapEditorHack.ztd) then you should put particleUI_DreamEmerald_v1.ztd and particleUI_DreamEmerald_x1.ztd in the SAME FOLDER as Jay's Hacks, or you might have issues with those mods not displaying properly, or my mods not displaying properly.  In most cases, that folder will still be "dlupdate", but it is possible that you have installed those files into a folder called "hacks" because that is how Jay has told people to install them.  The files should be in this order alphabetically:
     
    developerMapEditorHack.ztd
    developerMenuHack.ztd
    particleUI_DREAM_EMERALD_v1.ztd
    particleUI_DREAM_EMERALD_x1.ztd
     
    If you have any problems, or find any bugs or issues, leave a message here or msg me directly, thanks!   You can also see what I'm up to by checking out my project thread here https://zootekphoenix.com/forums/topic/14997-particles-projects/
     
    I'd like to say thanks to JBL for making ztstudio, and also to Jay for allowing me to integrate his mods, and also to Cricket for being awesome!
     
    There is a purple version of this mod called Lost Amethyst, you can find it here:

  3. RSN's Exhibit Suitability Guide by The Elementalist

    This is a guide to making highly suitable exhibits for every animal in both of RSN's Complete Collection packs.
     
    Back when his old website, Zoo Garden, was up and running, RSN apparently had one that he made himself, but when Zoo Garden went down, so did the suitability guide. I have created my own version of a suitability guide for RSN's animals for everyone to use, based on my own in-game research.
     
    This suitability guide, modeled similarly to the Animal Center at Wisco's Zoo Tycoon, shows how to make one-hundred-grid-square exhibits for just about all of his animals (with one exception).
     
    For the convenience of scenario players (since all of the expansion packs are not always available in scenarios), the suitability guide provides instructions on how to make exhibits with the highest possible suitability with one or no expansion pack's content (whether Dinosaur Digs or Marine Mania) available, with the exception of RSN's Kronosaurus, which is classified as a Dinosaur Digs animal but needs a tank like Marine Mania animals.
     
    I may or may not add RSN's standalone creations to the suitability guide later.
