Hello, welcome to ZA! Be sure to head over to Introductions and say hi to everyone!

As for your question, you can't, I'm afraid. :boohoo: You will have to go and buy the ES expansion in order to play with both sets of animals.

i did it!!
i just copied my zoo tycoon floder content to the other zoo tycoon endangered floder and it worked :D

Edit:
o yeah, i forgot i did something else too... i copied the file x100_001.z2f and made another file of it, but renamed it to entities.z2f ....
and it just worked somehow :D
but becarefull when you are copying the files (if someone ever will..) because there's a file that is called entities.z2f in the zoo tycoon folder, and you don't want it to replace the other one, so just copy all your content except that file and you'll be fine... i think :D i'll say if there will be problems.. :)

Edit:

the downloads thing in the game isn't working anymore so i lost my cute black panter but i still think it's worth it

Yes, it will be a bad idea because the game is looking for objects in places you haven't copied over (the entities file).  Also, you must BUY the ES expansion pack to get ES animals permenantly in your game.

Yes, if you don't buy the ES expansion pack and try to get the ES animals into your game, then what you are doing it technically illegal.

Yes, things will break and will glow if you copy files in that way, especially since you replaced a file you shouldn't have. Also, your game doesn't know how to read ES files because it doesn't have the upgrades and software that comes with ES. You will need to buy the FULL XP in order to get any animals from it. Your best bet now is to uninstall and reinstall ZT2
