A question from a noobster.

Hi, ummm, I played zoo tycoon a whole lot on my sister's computer and I never knew you could make indoor exhibits... I'm sorry if this is an incredibally noobish question but, I just wanted to know.

Indoor exhibits? No, as far I know, you can't. It would be really cool though!

It is possible to make them, but only if you have MM and ES. Make your walls with the tank walls, and cover it all up with the elevated path, and presto! You've got an 'indoor exhibit'.

I've heard that you can also do it without MM, but it's alot harder. Yo have to use the regular fences, and get the elevated path to look like it's resting on it... too confusing to me.

Without mm but with es, fence an area with LOW fence, put animals in it, then cover it with elevated path ( The ground has to be FLAT). Cover the low fence with High fence. And you're done! :happy:

( If you want, you can delete the supports. Don't worry, the path won't fall and kill your animals.)

I've played around a little bit with these, and they do work. Perhaps not incredibly attractive, but neat to do!

As long as we're on the subject of questions, I have a question myself. How do you access your photo album? I have a just ONE picture I want to put on here, and I don't want to publish the whole thing. How do I do that?

also, if you need a high roof, elevate terrain for walls.

Without MM, what fence do you use for indoor exhibits?

I usually use the stone or iron bar fences.

go to: C:\Documents and Settings\*Your User Name*\Application Data\Microsoft Games\Zoo Tycoon 2\*Default or Your Profile Name*\photos

Inside there are folders, marked album1, album2, etc. Inside are the pics. The one you want is called "enlarged"

Thanks, Mikaboshi. OK, strike that! It didn't work! The only folder with "Application Data" in it is not my user file! And in "Application Data" there's just an empty folder called "Symantec" or something! What the $@*# is wrong!?(Sorry for the $@*#, if that's swearing).

Hi, Yinyangwolf. It's probably that in your case you're not showing your "hidden" folders. Ask your Dad to allow you to 'see' them so you can find
C:\Documents and Settings\YOURUSERNAME\Application Data\Microsoft Games\Zoo Tycoon 2\Default Profile.
That's the only way you're going to be able to see your photos, then. He's probably got them still "hidden" for you. :rolleyes:
