[0.1] Note
--------------------------------------------------------------------------As you can see, the TOC is lotsa smaller (the new TOC is 8 KB smaller!).
That's because I removed the sub-paragraphs. SoepKip told me the TOC was
way to big (and the size of my guide also), so... 0.3 versions later I
listen to his advice and removed the sub-paragraphs. And I must agree: it
it lotsa cleaner this way.Chapter [15] was a real pain in the ass to create, and it isn't finished
yet! Chapter [2] is finished though... chapter [16] will be finished next
version (chapter [15] too!). Even better: I think the next version is the
final version :D:D:DBecause it's a new year (2002 if you didn't know :p), I'm going to do
thing better; I'm going to find a girlfriend (again) and I'm going to
update my guides quicker, better, bigger etc. Well... I'll try >=)When this guide is finished and it reached version F (Final), I'll move
some chapters. Chapter [14] should be last (just check it out to see why),
but I don't know if I'm going to add any chapters, so I can't place it as
last chapter. In ver. F (which means I won't change anything in this
guide anymore), I'll move chapter [14] to a better (best) place. Eeeh...
:SPlease mail me and tell what you think of this guide... do you miss
something? Did I add way too much? Just tell me! This is my first
serious guide (one that is bigger than 50 KB :p), but I want your
opinion about it. As for as this moment you're reading this, people liked
my guide (or "love it"), but maybe you think something like "Wo! This
guide is even worse than the back of my ass!"... let me know (Although I
like it more to read mail from people who like/love my guide)! I love to
receive mail about my guide and will try to answer it within 2 days
(which is not always possible, because I don't have cable... well... on
31th of January I'll get cable, so stay tuned... I'll answer mail the
same day :D). What are you waiting for? Mail me! ;)One last thing: I'm searching someone who can draw some nice ascii-art,
for other guide I'll write. I'm thinking of writing a guide for
other games (sssss! it's a secret :p), and ofcourse, I can't place the
ascii-art found in this guide... animals just aren't the same as ships and
vampires ;)BTW: I reached the 300 KB-limit :D Finally! Thanks to this line ;) Well...
and this line... :) Next version will be around 325KB I think. A fine size
for a finished version I guess... I'll try to make my next guide a little
smaller. This is too big :| I'll create in-depth guides with the help of
this guide.Anyway, have phun with this new version and stay tuned for the final
version!/_/

[1] Introduction & Stuff
==========================================================================--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[1.1] Introduction
--------------------------------------------------------------------------On a beautiful Saturday, I was at a friend of me (Gerder) and he told me
he played a demo of Zoo Tycoon and that the game rocked! Well... He also
liked Skateboard Park Tycoon, but I didn't really like it (Rollercoaster
Tycoon was much more fun). So he asked me if I did want to see the demo.
"Nah... I don't want to see it" I told him. So he said to me "Well;
anyway, I'm going to download it with Kaazaa"... "Suit yourself" was my
reply. So when he finished downloading the game (it took him 30 minutes),
he told me he did want to check it out. Np! So he began to play and I
thought "Wow! This game is great... I want to have it and write a guide
for it" :D
I searched the Internet (well; I looked on www.neoseeker.com and on
www.gamefaqs.com), but I didn't find any guide for Zoo Tycoon :D So what
does that mean for me? That I write one! I mean, I was the first one to
release a crack for Skateboard Park Tycoon, so why not being the first to
write a guide for Zoo Tycoon?
Zoo Tycoon wasn't official released, so I had to download it with Kaazaa.
I didn't have cable (and I still don't); I have a 128.8 kb-modem ;) The
download was about 140 MB. I began the download on 14:00 PM, and it was
finished around 22:30 PM :D So it took me 8,5 hours to download it! Not
that I didn't like it... I had enough time to do things I normally didn't
do. I logged in on IRC (the last time was about 3 months ago), I tried
to pick up a girl from my class ;), I searched some neat shit, I looked
for a guide for Zoo Tycoon ;) etc.
So here's my guide for Zoo Tycoon. I hope you like it and otherwise you
should burn in hell ;)BTW: I wrote this guide for the BETA-version of Zoo Tycoon, which is
version 10.07.00.0005.--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[1.2] About Zoo Tycoon
--------------------------------------------------------------------------You can't tell me you did never hear of a Tycoon-game; Railroad Tycoon,
Rollercoaster Tycoon, Skateboard Park Tycoon, Air Tycoon... So here's Zoo
Tycoon. I don't really think I have to explain it; just build a zoo and be
happy. There's nothing more to say ;)You can download the demo of Zoo Tycoon on the site of Microsoft (the URL
is download.microsoft.com/download/zootycoon/Trial/1.0/W9X2KMeXP/EN-US/
ZooTycoon.exe).--------------------------------------------------------------------------
