Hi

I have the full retail version of Zoo Tycoon 2 with the update patch installed and I am still having problems trying to place the ZTD files into Zoo Tycoon 2. I have tried placing them in the folloing directories as instructed in the forum but to no avail.

C: > Program Files > Microsoft Games > Zoo Tycoon 2

C: > Documents and Settings > All Users> Application Data > Microsoft Games > Zoo Tycoon 2 > downloads

C: > Documents and Settings > Your Username > Application Data > Microsoft Games > Zoo Tycoon 2 > Your Profile Name > Saved

Is there any other directtories I should be looking in or have I tried everything and am just unlucky.

Regards

Saved zoo's go in saved folder - not the downloads -

When you say ztd files? what files are you trying to put in there exactly. Zoo's for ZT2?

flamethrower · « **Reply #3 on:** February 15, 2005, 12:06:02 AM »

If you are downloading ZTD files, they are for Zoo Tycoon 1 only. Zoo Tycoon 1 and Zoo Tycoon 2 or are not compatible with each other.

starlightuk · « **Reply #4 on:** February 16, 2005, 11:39:00 PM »

Thank you for the advice, it is much appreciated, I thought the downloads were for both versions. I will now have to find downloads for version 2.

Could someone provide a list of the ZT2 extensions for downloads? I found the folder I am to put them in, but now I don't know what goes in there. I downloaded some files, but now realized that they are specifically for ZT instead of ZT2. Thanks

Aussie Koala · « **Reply #6 on:** March 06, 2005, 07:43:17 PM »

ZT 2 file extensions include .dl and .ztf. They would be in your downloads folder usually within other folders - english version files are in the 1033 folder.

ZT1 extensions are .ztd (with a dll file if its a building)- so remove those from the ZT2 dowloads folder.

If you still having problems - you can email me a copy of your downloads folder and I can sort it out for you

I am having MAJOR trouble finding the 'Saved Games' folder where I put a new user-created ZT2 game in. I followed those instructions perfectly, but once I clicked on my ZT2 folder, it doesn't have my profile name or anything. It just has a downloads folder, which I do not need at the moment, and a folder called 'tmp'. What should I do?

Its in aplication data? Wow! It very hard to find that place but I have found it once...

its confusing i know but theres actually two extra zoo tycoon folders one with the downloads fiolder and the other that has saved games and photos in that one can be found following this path

C:\Documents and Settings\Your user name\Application Data\Microsoft Games\Zoo Tycoon 2\Default Profile

the other route for a folder is C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft Games\Zoo Tycoon 2

Stuffed Panda · « **Reply #17 on:** June 13, 2005, 09:56:36 AM »

I know, I know. I follow it exactly, except once I click on my ZT2 folder, it says tmp and Downloads. No 'Default Profile' or anything else....

Question for you all! I've been trying to find the aforementioned path in my game as well. Which version of Windows are you using? That path sounds like a WinXP path to me. I'm using 98SE and have always displayed hidden and system files and have nothing like that anywhere on my hard-drive.

Stuffed Panda · « **Reply #19 on:** June 16, 2005, 09:55:59 AM »

I am using WindowsXP, but I can not find it...

gennif · « **Reply #20 on:** July 09, 2005, 01:23:36 PM »

Stuffed Panda - Is your hard drive divided into 2 or more partitions? My hard drive has 3 partitions and WinXP is installed on the D:\ drive rather than C:\.

Stuffed Panda - Or another thing you can try is a search zoos you have saved on your hard drive.

Go to Search and type - nameofyourzoo.z2s you're going to put the actual name of your zoo there

or *.z2s the asterisk is a wild card

That will show you the path to the folders you're looking for.
