What happened to all the downloads?
« on: July 26, 2006, 01:51:18 PM »
I have just started playing ZT again after a few years and remember coming to this site for downloads. Now, there must be a quarter of what there was then. What happened to all of the downloads? I specifically remember downloading a "Bird Pack" with all kinds of different birds, but now it's gone, along with many others. Does somebody know where I could find these downlaods?
Thanks

I'm afraid I don't know what you mean. They should all be there. For instance, HERE is that bird pack you mentioned :original:

After you click the link, look at the top of the forum and it shows the path to follow to find this dl.  To be more specific, it is in the ZT1 section, sub section Packs, sub-sub section User Packs.

Okay I have just been running a wee check on the download database and we either need to send it to school so it can learn to count or punish it for lying. :laughing: :blink:

Fountain it says 8 I found 9
Foliage and rocks it says 35. I found 45
So goodness know how many are out.

yes the counter on the database does have its moments as we found out when we were uploading them for days it said there was nothing in zt1 maps even though there were hundreds in there so you best bet is just to look through each page or if you know what you want use the search button

Remember the Search Button
« Reply #7 on: August 11, 2006, 07:45:09 PM »
The good, old faithful search button. I use it so much! It is amazing what you can find with it. I would recommend it to anyone. Also remember that there may be downloads on other members sites as well. There are lots of other forums with downloads out there, so I really like to take a look ate them all. Check the Member Sites for some examples. I would like to not advertise for any site here.

Remember the search button, : :P :

Not a pack, but there are some birds in other packs and as individual downloads, as far as I know.

Hi everyone.  I know fern has mentioned this to me before, and I thought the problem had been corrected.  When I go to the main downloads page, it shows 1953 ZT1 Downloads and 490 ZT2 Downloads.  I was under the impression this was close to (if not 100%) accurate, but I am getting the impression this is not the case.  I will try to look into this and see what is going on.

You could ask Red what she did because it came more right after she read my post.
 Maybe she kicked it.
Paths under objects definately remain fibbing though, saying (last time I looked) there was one more than there actually is. I wonder if that has to do with the fact that the ZTU path was transferred to the ZTU area but for some reason it is still counting it.

Maybe it counts transferred ones as still being where they were originally posted? Just a thought.

Believe this is fixed now.  Could someone do a spotcheck and see?  I checked about 5 categories and all of them seemed to be correct.  Thank you and best regards.

Mark Bells Info Booth  Please use the search button in the downlaods area to find what you are looking for.  I just typed booth into the search box and found this easily.

Thank you! I didn't use the search function. It has been a while since I was last on this site. I just have to get use to it again. That RCT Info Booth isn't the one I was looking for. I just installed. THe one I was looking looked like a normal Zoo tycoon booth but it sold a map and a dinosaur book. It must have been from another site. Sorry.

Want to appologize. I finally found it on my second hardrive. But the site where I got the information Booth I think no longer exists. The building is agood money maker. As people buy maps to look around you zoo. Plus I found a heap of old downloads. Such as applebees restaurant and other downloads which I am now going to install.

Some of DJ Designs are still available from Jane at Tek
Be very careful installing some of the old files. There are warnings about applebees and many others on the posts at the Download Directory.
Some of them are on my fix list. Also do not install files that have exe files as these usually have a patch dll which caused problems

Thanks for the warning. I just got back from work. The only one I have installed is the Information booth and the marine mania trash can. But I will hold off on the others.
