Howdy, FlyingVShredder! Nice to meet you! Make sure and go over to Introductions after this and meet everyone :happy You'll find we're a mostly helpful, mostly sane bunch around here. :lol

Now, as to your problem. First of all, NEVER download .dll files. They are not for ZT2. The process for ZT2 is, first download one of our ZT2 animals, here, then:

1) after unzipping (you will need WinZip) the files to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Zoo Tycoon 2
2) inside that folder, you'll see another folder, created by the MAKER (e.g. exitree, penguinman, martin1990)
3) inside THAT folder will be yet ANOTHER folder (e.g. arctic fox), plus a .dl file also called arctic fox
4) cut the zoo tycoon 2 file (inside that 2nd folder) and paste it next to the arctic fox .dl file
5) Now you have two files side by side, both named arctic fox
6) then, take both THOSE files (artic fox.dl and arctic fox.zoo tycoon 2) and CUT and PASTE them into
7) C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Zoo Tycoon 2

Some computers are configured differently, and some won't 'recognize' those individual folders. Mine, for instance, won't. I always have to do the above to get my downloads to work. You should get some nice downloads that way.
