How to copy a zoo?

[Guest bprevite]

Hey everyone!! So I know my topic description makes it seem like I'm just asking how to copy a file. But what I really mean is like is there a way to copy all the content (like buildings and basically all the pathways and stuff) to make like another zoo without the status stuff... like for example: March year 3 and after you make the copy, it donest save the status so it goes to January year 1. But I dont care if it is still March 3. I'm asking because for this particular zoo, it seems that some animals dont show up in the list for only this zoo. but those exact ones im missing show up in my other zoos. PS i have the hack for everything from start. so its not a research problem. so please, if you can answer how to copy the floor plans for a zoo( i dont care about animals). or if youve had that animal problem... if you know how to fix it (b/c its just this one zoo, but i dont wanna start a new one from scratch, id rather have the plans and just add the animals later). Thanks :) please help.

I don't know of any way to do this and return the zoo clock back to the start date. Those who have made senario zoos might know of some way to do that, however. One thing you could do is to remove/sell off all the animals and let it run for a while. All the people will leave once there are no animals and you could start over from that point. One of our members, Fern, is very knowledgeable about this and may be able to help you.

Not so knowledgeable about zoos as I am about actual files.

I wish there was a way to change the clock so that would be great for contests.

I really can't think of an easy way to copy a layout.

what worked for me is taking the ztd files out shut down the computer then start the computer again and then put the ztd files back in the dlupdate

I hope it works for you too.

YAY!!! Thank you sooo much Pukkie! Like I had done just taking the whole Updates folder out, but it didn't work. So then when I tried what you said with taking the files inside out it worked!! I've been really busy but I finally got it, thanks:)
