You do know I recoloured all the dino fences. That includes natural colours like browns and weathered looks.

I see you like using Jay's cobblestone fences too. Would you like them in other colours?

Yup! Cobblestone cliffs are my new adquisition 😸😸 I don't like the default dino fences... I find them pointlessly tall 🙀🙀 That's why I'd rather "sunken" dino exhibits... Some nice cobblestone fences variation might be gray, black or mossy green 🧐🧐

Short update: Sorry for this long abscence! I'm still working with this, but I just can't solve the issue about the path in the Jurassic Zoo scenario 🙀🙀 Any ideas?

Welp, I tried several times. The first issue was the path rule... In the Jurassic Zoo scenario, the default path way is too confuse and I was not able to use it properly. First two weeks I tried and lost (because run of time and no resources), then I did this: Just replace the default way with user made but not using it at all... So, the rule is not broken...

 

And this would be a perfect... But then I noticed a second issue as i kept losing the scenery! The goal of "Suitability 85 for 7 jurassic exhibits" got never achieved and I could not figure out why... I tought it was bugged, so I stopped trying... Then I noticed the reason: Realism hack changes Caudipteryx geological era from Jurassic to Cretaceous, so It doesn't count in the Jurassic exhibits anymore!! Wanna see how I solved this? Come and see the

 

Empty Jurassic Dinosaur Zoo

from the Jurassic Zoo campaign:

 

User-made only restricted: Animals, paths, decorative fences & scenery.

In-game stuff allowed: Exhibit fences, buildings, rocks, foliage & staff.

 

Objectives:

1. Rating: 75.

2. Suitability: 85 for 7 jurassic exhibits.

3. Diversity: Read the *in-game animals required* section.

 

Default buildings: None

In-game animals required: Allosaurus, Apatosaurus, Caudipteryx, Camptosaurus, Kentrosaurus, Plesiosaurus & Stegosaurus, one each at least.

This scenario is a good approach to the No Grass Please hack with all the vanilla dinos having their exhibits redesigned... Camptosaurus now likes a small piece of rainforest!

Some other who now like rainforest are the thorn-backed Stegosaurus and Kentrosaurus!

Another nice change is the fact of new dinos being able to eat guests! Big All likes angry and hungry guests

Apatosaurus is one more added to the rainforest team! Come and see Little Barney at his dwelling!

Otherwise, Plesiosaurus has their default preferences not changed at all... It still loves to swim and have a meal at it smol island

And now! The stone of dissension! Caudipteryx has a snowy forest habitat BUT also has its Jurassic era modified to Cretaceous... How to solve this trouble?

In order to achieve the last goal of Jurassic exhibits, I had to build an extra exhibit for a new Jurassic pal! The chosen one resulted to be Borsato's Archaeopteryx. When I noted this issue, my last saved file was almost out of time, so this exhibit got built fast... But it worked! Jurassic Zoo Campaign complete!

Hi again! This is the first aquarium among the intermediate scenarios! I must confess that, years ago, this campaign showed me that mermaids were actually in game, as I built a tank without noticing the statue on that corner 🤯🤯 So, it is always nice for me to visit this campaign... So, lemme introduce you today in the:

Don't you like salty water from the beach? Then, come and take a bath at our fresh water pond! Don't forget to take a peek at the souvenir store and refresh yourself at the Hungry Dutchman 🍴🍴

I can't chose just one of the fishes from Hawkkeye's Eastern Atlantic pack, so I toke many of them. Take a walk below their tank, and live the atlantean experience within your own skin! AfricanRaptor's Atlantean Viewing Area gives the touch 🔱🔱

Now! Do you know what's the largest extant fish? 🤔🤔 Right answer! The whale shark! But the in-game animals are not allowed! So, you may see the second largest fish in the world! Khaydar's Basking Shark! Another nice piece for these tanks are the AfricanRaptor's Sea Floor Tiles🌊🌊

Not enough sharks? Alright! There's another tunnel, so you may see an walk alongside them! Otherwise, if you had enough sharks at this point, there's also Khaydar's False Killer Whale's dwellings... Then, there's also a new Wesley's Sea Turtle Staute near the old reliable mermaid throne 🧜🏽🧜🏽

Next scenario is one of the most heartbreaking, and also one of the most interesting... So, I think I'll share every single tank for the rescued animals... And after that, the whole zoo... Until then! 🌈🌈

Hi again! I found an issue with the hacks and the work of the campaigns once again... For this campaign, an in-game animal required is the porpoise, but it's lend to the zoo as a donation and the adoption menu is not available... I have the ZT vs Nature hack, where the porp is replaced with a new file made by Taz, therefore modifying the in-game porp as the Dall's porp... So, when the last animal package is loaded, the porp wasn't there! I had to restart the game a few times, before I noticed that I was missing an animal, so I went to the ZT guide where I found the porp was that lost animal, so I had to restart again without the porp UCA and DLL... And this is the result!

The lore of this campaign almost makes me cry everytime I read what those animals went through :c Little reminder: April 22nd (Like friday two weeks ago) is Earth's Day (I pretended to post this that day, but I had to deal with the porp issue)... This year it was quite different as more than ever topics like water, chlimate change and war were most remarkable as ever! Until next empty zoo :3 Have a nice week

It's me again! Last week I got the surgery for the removal of my wisdom teeth, so I took a rest away from work during 4 days... I was like "Yasssss a nice time where I'll working with my new empty (and delayed) zoos!"... Welp, spoiler: I got stuck with this one... I restarted it like 5 times until I achieved all the goals.
