I assume this goes in the maps folder?

I just put it in my maps folder and this map is not showing up as an option to play. I am trying to figure it out. :(

You will probably need to put it in your Saved Games folder.  When you open your game, Load it as an existing game.

Gymnasiast confirmed it goes in the saved games folder

Nevermind, it goes in saved games. Read it lat

Has @Gymnasiast ever clarified if derivative mods are okay from this file? I've recently made a modified version of the map for personal use but I'd be happy to release it if that's OK with them.

You can find him on the OpenRCT2 Discord to ask. Link is at the top right of their web page: https://openrct2.org/

Very large maps are great but at times I would like very large view of the map of current size largest freeform map so I can see guest flow and indulge my joy in building infrastructure that supports zoo operations.

Lo acabo de poner en mi carpeta de mapas y este mapa no aparece como una opción para jugar. Estoy tratando de resolverlo. :( 

You must place the downloaded map in "saved games", but you must do it through the game, because without opening the game that folder will not appear. You open the game, go to saved games and then look for that downloaded map and double click on it and the map will open. If you like, you can copy it and put it in "saved games" along with your other games.

has anyone filled this map in its entirety yet? what was the verdict on if filling it entirely might create issues or not? i'd love to use it but hate to have my zoo start chugging or crashing at 2/3 of the way full!

Part of that will depend on your computer. There are a lot of animations in ZT and as you fill a zoo it can slow the game down considerably. I know some that can't use the ingame large maps for this reason. But they are using older machines.
