You need to put the dll files in your main zoo tycoon folder for the descriptions to show up.

This might make me sound really stupid but... :8

How do you install the user-made maps?

to install user made maps you unzip them to:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Zoo Tycoon\Saved Games

if you don't have a saved games folder just start the game and go Play freeform game - pick a map and open it- then just save it exit the game and follow above path and you should have a saved games folder - you can now delete the game you saved if you wish and install and enjoy the user made maps.

Remember no question is a stupid question

The invisible fence isn't a hack, you just treat like any other download, putting the .ztd file into the updates of dlupdates folder, and the .dll file into the main ZT directory.

First of all, save it to your desktop so it is easy to find. Once it is installed, you then will need to unzip it. Once unzipped, place the file in this directory:

C:Program Files/Microsoft Games/Zoo Tycoon/Updates  (or dlupdates if you have Zoo Tycoon Complete Collection.) This directory can be found by clicking on My Computer, C: Drive, and follow the names given from there. If you need this explained more clearly, please PM me and I will walk you through the process.  :)

It sounds like the animals you've downloaded are having a conflict with something else in your game. Do you have any other user made downloads installed? If you do, take out the animals you've just downloaded, then try to restart your game. If it loads and runs okay, then put in only one animal at a time. This will allow you to find out which one is not compatible. If you are still having problems, you should try to contact the author of the animal files and see what they might be able to tell you.

Well if you already have the original ZT with expansions and all you want is the Endangered Species Pack, you can download it here. The Arctic and the Japanese Packs are not available for dl, if you want those as well, you will have to buy ZTCC.

Sorry if this has already been answered but where do I put maps? Do I have to load them from my saved games or is there any way to get them in  the map section? Thanx. :)
P.S: This is for ZT1.
EDIT: Forget it I found it didn't look carefuly enough. :>< Sorry.
