Oh for...this whole time I could have been doing that. I always did a copy/paste which I guess for some reason made the file too big. It works when I just drag it over, though.
What did you do in Planet Zoo today?
- Thread starter Indoraptor27
- Start date
Where are the Screenshots saved? I can never seem to find them.
I use post img, as the forum always sasy things are too large. But it is quite inconvinient, really, thta's why I'm posting so little.
This is my directory to screenshots:
You can also access it through Steam like this:
On the right hand side of the Steam library (when you are on Planet Zoo) you have sections like Friends who play, Achievements, etc. If you scroll down you will notice a section called Screenshots (It's right under Steam Workshop). Click on Manage my screenshots. A new smaller window will open and at the bottom of the window, you'll find Show on disk. Click that and that will open the actual folder where the screenshots are saved. From then on pick the screenshots and just drag them into the post.
Thank you! Have a different setup but was able to find it following your path!
That hippo house is lovely, cant wait to do my own take on one one day
Well today I learned you don't have to make your paths with rounded edges. Yeah I know, almost 700 hours into the game and I just found that out. Also had an interesting temporary bug when I pulled up the paths sections, there was a (false) option to recolor the path and wouldn't that actually be amazing!!
Anyways I'm starting a new small scale zoo in the classic style, Fuzzy and Furry Zoo. It's for the smaller, cuter animals. Not sure how it will turn out financially but I know what I'm putting front and center, for the first time in any of my zoos to be front and center!
Update - first habitat is in. I'm not a builder of any skill so it's simple and as always will need work, but it did take me a couple of hours and some redos. I've practiced very little with indoor habitats, even partial ones like this one, but the hardest part is done. Just have to recolor and what not which doesnt take nearly as much time. To note, I also took a loan because I wanted to go "big" with my first animal in this zoo. It's so deserved for these little ones!

Today i got very little done in building, but instead spend a good while on planning and terraforming, as well as some early pathing for my african section.
I started my zoo (and the game) with 5 african habitats and added one more after some more experience, where i dont know how many i will scrap of them by now because they are my literal first steps in the game so its kinda cool to see how far ive ccome, even though it doesnt change the fact how crappy they look.
But my plans for now are rather simple. I had a large nyala habitat on a hill that i kinda liked and now i want to renovate it, make it presentable and add some other animals after combining it with the ex cheetah habitat, while working on the other side of the hill on a large panorama view, hagenbeck style.
For now its nyalas and what ever will live with them on the top of the hill, wilddogs on the slide below them that can be seen from a walktrhough cave , another exhibit for maybe some zebras or something and at the end/start of the view a coastal habitat for african penguins.
If these plans will stay is up in the air, but what isnt that somewhere will be some meerkats, im dead set on that!

@NZFanatic: Thank you! I'm glad you like it. The first step of the roof was the most complicated to make a good looking slope but then it was just copy and paste, and didn't even take that long.
@KönigDerKaffeebohnen: Thank you as well.

Well, I made some generic conservation posters (conservation board size). If these are popular I'll make a couple more. Y'all give me suggestions of what animals/slogans to do next, if there's anything in particular y'all want:
If you were really, REALLY evil and a tounge and cheek person, you would do something like "Lets keep their fire from burning out" for the koalas
I am tongue in cheek, but I might lose my zoo ownership if the AZA saw that sign
Would you also take Suggestions for other Signs? Would really like a Education Board about Musth for the 4m x 4m Screen for my Elephant House (African Elephant) and I don't think I would be able to create a good one.
Also these Signs are nice. One with a Giant Panda in Front of a dark green Background might be great.
Edit: you could also do one with a Polar Bear and a light blue Background
Sure. I'll have to do a bit of research for the elephant musth poster. But I'll see what I can do.
Thanks. And yeah, I'll do a giant panda and a polar bear
Actually, one last question: which of the following is the 4×4? I keep forgetting:Thanks, I'm excited to see what it will look like
I thought it was the TV Screen, but it's not a perfect square? Maybe it's the Screen Panel?
(Yes, as y'all can see I use the forums through my phone
)

@darthquell the 1:1 at the top of the list is for all the square panels, including the 1x1, 2x2, and 4x4. 
Im back with a bit of progress. Its sadly pretty rough because i will have to redo alot but for now i started a cave view for african wilddogs, their shelter and started updating the habiat barrier for the nyala with a custom rock and wood part for the panorama and a custom fence that i have strechted over one side of the exhibit for now. Still unsure if i will scrap their and the old cheetah shelter, eventhough it also inhabits a fake exhibit and a keeper hut.
I quite like the custom fence i made, it just will be a pain in the but to put it all around their habitat. Also proppably will have to update the little lemur house and african restaurant, but only time will tell.
For now i plan to theme this starting part like an african village before going into the wilderness of the savanah until it will finally reach the coast
edit: oh well, the pics are gone, but welp wasnt to spectacular anyways
