It might be an idea to go back and recheck and maybe update those that need it. If you need help just ask as there are some of us here that will help one way or another. From memory most of the animals from way back at uncrated could do with some updating. There are more tools and info around than there would have been when they were done. Are you talking about my ancient projects that I made when I was a child? (the white rhino, water tiger, troodon, radar, garfish, etc.) If so, I don't plan on updating those since they're so old and I'm not sure if people want recolored sprites anymore for animals with all of these new sprite rendered animals being made. I was in the process of remaking some of those old animals last year but I canceled the project since I wasn't sure people wanted recolored sprites for animals anymore, just didn't feel up to snuff you know. This is what I was working on before I decided to cancel it. Oh and btw the rotations work perfectly on these current plants, I'm using zoot to make sure that they are fitting correctly to the grid.

I'm glad and happy that Zoo Tycoon new content creation is booming lately, but it seems scenery and foliage are neglected when I would think/love to see more of them. Is the Ocotillo supposed to be that big though? It looks gigantic in the picture. Yeah that's how tall it is in Zoo Tycoon 2 with AD's CC pack, also on wikipedia it said it can grow up to 33 feet tall iirc. -------------------- Also thanks for the comments so far everyone, made another piece of foliage last night.

Fern Posted September 2, 2018 Posted September 2, 2018 Probably. It is up to you since they are still available. I don't mind recolours of animals. Your new stuff looks interesting.
caddienoah Posted September 2, 2018 Posted September 2, 2018 Thank you for your work... I am offering my opinion only...But what would it hurt if those things you created would be updated...I enjoy having the option of choosing the animals or other files that are available...it can only be a good thing!

I'll think about it, my fellow designer of the 'Animals of the World' pack has kind of been burnt out of ZT1 and I don't know when he'll be interested in the game again to design for it, it all depends on when he'll come back to ZT1. -------------------- Brazilian Peppertree - Grasslands - South America - Aurora Designs CC pack brazilian peppertree Plate Coral - Aquatic - Tropical Oceans Worldwide - Blue Fang's plate coral Larkspur - Highlands - Asia - Blue Fang's larkspur 1
Wolverale12 Posted September 5, 2018 Author Posted September 5, 2018 Sorry for the bump, just wanted to show off more foliage that I've made so far. [I'll update this post with more foliage later when I take the pics of the new foliage] Quila - Rainforest - South America - Aurora Designs CC pack quila (bamboo)
(Designer)HENDRIX Posted September 5, 2018 Posted September 5, 2018 Heads up, if you import bfbs with their normals (Check the toggle on Import), the foliage might have better shading. Not sure if the blender internal renderer considers the edited normals, though.

HeatherL Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 The above plant project is awesome! Any chance of an oak? I don't know where Blue Fang got their version, but it looks nothing like any oak I've ever seen. (I actually won't use any animals that prefer it because I think it is so ugly.) Please don't give up on the Animals of the World project. There is nothing wrong with recolors and I would use at least half of the ones in this pack. I would also be interested in the scrub & boreal rocks as a separate combined pack. The scrub bush is also very nice, perhaps it could go in the Foliage Pack? https://zootycoonuncrated.jcink.net/index.php?showtopic=15

Also again it all depends on when my fellow designer Fireplume will get back into ZT1 for me to continue working on the Animals of the World pack. As for the rocks, I definitely think it would be a good idea to move them into a separate pack from the AotW pack, although I'm not sure how useful they would be considering that nothing in vanilla ZT1 uses the boreal or scrub habitats. And finally for the scrub bush which is a recolor of the DD tundra bush, again it's habitat is the scrub biome and I'm not sure what would really like to use it ingame. Although I would still consider putting it in this current pack along with the green grass from AotW that's just used to decorate all exhibits.
