in ZT2 there is no way to get bigger maps than already in the game - unlike zt1 there is no map editor.

the people who post pictures on show and tell seem to have bigger maps or something. Is it just me or does anyone else see this.

What zoohio, Penguinman and I do is usually use the Large Grassland map, then simply alter it to suit our zoo. It seems to be about the biggest one. :original:

Well, most people taking pictures usually make sure the zoo walls are not in the picture. Kind of like not wanting your little brother in your school picture! :laughing:

I always create ledges to hide my zoo walls :rolleyes: But no there is no way to get bigger maps than what are already in the game. I find that the grassland map is pretty large and perhaps larger than the others...also the large boreal forest map isn't too bad, either.

Its certainly something that has annoyed me from the start, the biggest maps still arnt all that big compared to the largest maps on zt1, if only bluefang would make a larger map size

Well, my comp is a little slow, so when I start building my zoo*, I usually get mabey twenty good-sized exibits in and my comp can then no longer handle all the movement...

*A breif veiw of my building style:
I start with one simple thing: A REALLY big food cort in the middle of the map with lots of space for additions later on. From there, I fill in the space on either side of the path, usually putting small animals in front. From there, I start adding 'Leaves' on, basicly little groups of exibits connected to a small path that connects to a main path that connects to the big food cort. I like to make the main path two to three sections wide, and circleing the perimiter of the zoo, conecting to the food cort in three directions. I like to go by biome then location when making these 'Leaves' in my zoo, but depending on what becomes available, I may go by size. I have never fully completed one of these zoos because of my computer's speed, but I plan on putting some up for dowload so someone can possibly finnish my creation.

I was wondering if there is a way to edit the map to where you can change the size of the map.I mean take a large and make it bigger. Please let me know as soon as possible.


Thanks

Nope this is not possible. Have merged your question with a topic that asks the same thing. Please use the [topic=5628]Search[/topic] feature before starting a new topic. Thank you.
