Someone wanted this so here it is. New release http://www.ztcdd.org/DG/index.php?topic=6005.0 Souvenir Maker Author: Jay Description: Guests will be fascinated watching a figure made for them using an injection molding process. When the machine is activated, 2 halves of a mold are clamped together while the temperature increases to heat an amount of plastic pellets to turn them into a liquid. When hot enough, the liquid is pushed into the 2 halves of the mold to fill it. The temperature then returns to normal. Then the 2 halves separate to reveal the plastic figure, which is pushed into an opening so that the figure can be taken. Messages require LANG--ZTCDD.dll dated October 31, 2021 or newer.

Your zoo is looking beautiful!

Welcome to Tek Ambient Music! :D Your English is fine dear, and considering that its the only language I know how to speak, you are far ahead of me in the language department. :) Everything Heather said is excellent advise. One thing to keep in mind is that guests are happiest when they can see animals, and guests can see 10 tiles (the squares on the ground in the terrain mode and elevation mode). Placing a restaurant every 20 to 30 tiles will keep all of your guests needs satisfied for the most part. As a general rule I use a gift shop at the entrance, and four more near the corners of the zoo, perhaps one in the middle if there is room, which generally keeps the guests gift needs happy. The Animal Houses also add to guest happiness, especially when you upgrade them to the highest choice, example, the Aquarium has three choices of animals to display, the third one from the left give the highest happiness bonus (- - *). And the attractions also add to guest happiness, things like the Carousel and Animal Theater, etc. So creating a guest habitat with a restaurant, animal house, and attraction, surrounded by exhibits, should keep your guests very happy. If you have any questions, feel free to ask, we are here to help :) There are several tutorials for different things such as making marine shows, and if you want to look at zoos that other people have made you can find those in the Screenshots section. Also, we have clubs that you can join, and the clubs make cooperative zoos for contests and for fun, you could learn a lot there too :) But whatever you do, have fun and enjoy building your zoos! :D

This is amazing! I see several things that I do regularly. I always sink my dino/stone age exhibits and build raised overlooks into them. Sometimes I sink or raise courtyards and statues. Other than that, I really don't play with elevation very much. I never thought to use the frozen waterfall fences to line the cliff faces. That looks great! I love what you did with the park area and the terracing. And I'm going to have to steal your beautiful moat and bridge idea. So far as buildings go, I like to lay out the paths and basic exhibits in a grid pattern. Then I designate areas at regular intervals at one end of the exhibit "blocks" for restaurants and attractions. I try to cluster them in a way that feels comfortable and add a statue or fountain, benches and flowerbeds. If you place restaurants fairly regularly, you don't need restrooms or stands since the restaurants take care of all of those needs for the guests. You also won't need to have extra maintenance people to take care of the trash that the stands generate. I personally don't like the way the stands look, a cluster of them seems very messy to me.

Are those Vondell's concrete wall pieces? I love building with them! I recognize RDFT's brick wall settings, too!

I really like the glass covered walkways-very clever, and it's the only way you would get me to visit someplace that cold! And the zoo overview shot is really cool. Where do the white houses with the brown roofs come from? Wait, I found them!

Thanks! Only yesterday I saw a documentary on the first polar expeditions. Incredible.... The story of Amundsen and Scott and the brave Lawrence Oates. The poles are such unique places...

You have such a great building style!

Very cool!

Wonderfully creative. The buildings are great and your habitats are natural looking.
