Aquarium Animals?

[Varlin]

How do you make the animals that go into the aquarium building?  Someone did a deepsea aquarium, and they had their own (deepsea mollusks, etc.), but I want to make one that I can use in the tropical aquarium.  Anyone know how this works?

Can anyone help me with this?

I'm sorry Ralok, I'm no real programmer.  I didn't know how to help you.  I know, at one time, they exchanged guests for animals, but I wouldn't know how they did it.

As for the aquarium, you mean, that you place it in a tank and animals go in it?

If so, I think you should probably program it as a shelter for animals.  

The ZKlounge has a shelter tutorial; you can find it here.

For underwater shelters, it's probably somewhat different, I would advice to unrar the original file that contains the shelter, take out a marine shelte .ucs file and compare what you should change your .ucs file to.

(First make the item as a decoration in Ape, then you can still change the .ucs file.)

I see what he means Taz ....he wants tropical fish etc to show as the animals featured in the building like how the other animal buildings show the kind of animals featured.

This is very difficult to do because the different featured animals in a building like that have to be researched and getting a building to be researched or have researched content is a very difficult process and can cause conflicts which cause ZT to crash that is why a lot of designers stopped doing researchable buildings for the game.

It also requires a dll file.

Aah, oops.

'It requires dll files', that's the moment I hooked off. :><   Know nothing about them.
