Title: Not Running
Post by: dootdoot on October 20, 2006, 06:30:30 PM: I purchased MM2. But it won't play! I've tryed everything, but MM2 just won't launch!

I've also noticed a dowload on my desktop called Launcher, that came from MM2.

If you deleted the tiger icon already, find your Zoo Tycoon 2 Folder usually located in C:Program Files/Microsoft Games.

Inside there find a file called zt.exe. That will start the game :)

But one more thing - should I copy-paste that zt.exe to my desktop?

Post by: penguinman on October 20, 2006, 07:25:29 PM: I wouldn't copy/paste, but you can right click and say create shortcut and put the shortcut on your desktop :happy:

Post by: bulldog94 on January 09, 2007, 12:33:14 PM: Well It Originally Worked But Then Stopped, I Cleaned My Disk, Restarted My PC, Reinstalled All My Games. Also I Went To My Zoo Tycoon 2 Folder Where You Put The Downloads And It Shows Some Animals But Nothing Else, Its All Blank.

Post by: mikaboshi on January 09, 2007, 12:53:02 PM: Downloads is for stuff you have downloaded; it shouldnt have anything there unless you have actually downloaded stuff.

Post by: csleesburg on January 09, 2007, 01:21:20 PM: Mikamod is correct. Downloads if where BF puts the "official" downloads. If you've got MM and/or AA most of the old ones are included already.
