Firehawke Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Beautiful work!!! Love the layout and the landscaping...very natural! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaTT² Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 Lots of foliage indeed !! In fact, I think forest and jungle are the most difficult areas to fit out ! Animals need lots of trees, of different sorts and it's sometimes difficult to be able to see them once the exhibit is ready .. That's why I put most of the trees near the (invisible) fences to create natural ones and a kind of clearing in the middle :) On the global overview, you will see a big forest with many clearings almost everywhere ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firehawke Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I agree...it can be hard to see the animals in some of those exhibits if the foliage is placed just right....and you are doing a great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaTT² Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 And I hope I'll have the same result for the next exhibits ! To continue the visit of The Sanctuary, this is a little spring gushing from the rocks (you can see a fence close to it caus this area was still in works when I took the screenshot !) And now : Exhibit 027 : European Red Deer (Cerf Elaphe) Male : Lug Female : Epona, Birgid (names of celtic gods, I thought it was nice ones for deers, given the importance they have in celtic mythology) Here is the exhibit (the pond is shared with the nearby exhibit, as a great clearing): Here are the pages from the Explorator's Guide : Focus on the clearing : the wooden shelter is almost hidden by the foliage and the trunks : The animals emerging from the foliage, I love this screenshot :-) I'm actually building the next part of the deciduous forest which will present rare and endangered species .. and a brand new leisure area !

MaTT² Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 So ... the game crashed one more time .. It seems it was caused by a problem with the graphic resolution (my screen use "Windows 7 Aero" and the game prefers "Windows 7 basic" .. Was the first time I had this message since I bought my screen 2 years ago but .. anyway .. I selected "basic" and loaded my savegame again but it still crashes. It happens almost instantly since I bought some japanese serows because the last added content I've downloaded was installed 3 weeks ago and it didn't effect anything .. I know there's a bug with serow's foliage, but I don't know if that could crash the game .. Oh .. and my previous savegame was before I built the prairie area .. That's to say many hours of work for me .. If anyone has an idea .. I'm ready to read you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fern Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Did you delete any scenery and replace it while on Pause? I mean scenery from the scenery tab not foliage, rocks etc. What foliage do you mean for the serow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaTT² Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 I tried to sell the serows while on Pause but the game crashed few seconds after playing, didn't try to delete scenery however .. But I saw there was some missing content in the endangered species pack, like arctic objects, and the snowball tree for the serow, is it true ? Finally I uninstalled the game in order to reinstall my bonus content file after file, but it's too long ^^ So I've just bought the complete collection pack (I still had the original game with its 2 extension pack seperately and the downloaded endangered species pack ..) . Maybe I'll have less problems with a "proper" version .. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
