Subdued Animals in C2C discussions

Question: How does the Tapir qualify to make the Myth of the Elephant? I suppose it would certainly be a very small elephant myth.

As I have said before there are Chinese myths where the Tapir and Elephant are the same animal.

Here is a Lynx. They live in North America, Europe and Asia. They can live in a variety of climates ranging from the cold tundra all the way to arid deserts. However I do not think they live in Jungles. Like the Snow Leopard I think it would take "Myth of the Spotted Cat" since they have spots too. As well as other Cat related buildings.

Enjoy!

The Snow leopard worked, I even got it in a equatorial very high plateau

Awesome!

I got the Flamingo to work!

Here is the range of Flamingos. As you can see they live about everywhere except Australia. Besides wetlands they also will live in Salt Flats, which means we finally have a species for that terrain type!

Enjoy!

Do you guys mind if I make some suggestions?

1. Marsupials can be expanded on with the coolest marsupial if them all- the bandicoot(you could use eastern barred, if you we're kind enough to take my suggestion).
2. Puffins would be good north hemisphere arctic birds to have.
3. Manta rays are not harmful to humans under standard circumstances, however, when being hunted, they have a history of destroying hunting boats(perhaps they qualify as strength 2, they can be much more dangerous to fishermen than belugas).
4. You could create snow monkeys for Asia, but their range is pretty small, so they might end up being pretty rare.

We are limited to models from Zoo Tycoon 2 and/or mods for it.

1. If I find one I will add it. I still have a Wombat and Quoll to convert.

2. If I find one I will gladly convert it.

3. That would be up to DH to decide.

4. I think I may have seen Japanese Macaques as mod animal. If I can find it again I will convert. However I do have a Gelada Baboon to convert.

 

[Dancing Hoskuld]

@Hydro, how many more animals are you likely to give me in the near future? I will need to update my FPK and would like to do it as few times as possible.

@MantaRevan, Mantas at str 2 sounds fine to me.

 

[Hydromancerx]

Hmm. I would like to get a couple more done. It all depends upon how easy they are to convert. The Lynx was easy while the Flamingo and Snow Leopard were hard. Its random until I start testing to see if and what problems they have.

How soon do you want them?

 

[Dancing Hoskuld]

I should be finishing off the volcano stuff rather than putting in new animals. I suppose I should not be putting in until v27 it out anyway.

@Dancing Hoskuld

Here is a Secretary Bird. They live in in the African savanna.

You can always just add them now and then anything else I make you can add later. Or if your busy just save them all for later. Its totally up to you since I have no idea how many more I am going to do, if any. This last one was very frustrating.

@Dancing Hoskuld

Here is a Gelada Baboon. They live in the Ethiopian Highlands in Africa.

 

[Dancing Hoskuld]

Thanks. I have also made 4 paleolithic myths, bear (cave bear), bird (Moa and Haast's Eagle). cat (Sabretooth and cave lion) and mammoth. I figure that they should reduce the costs of the related "Fossil Dig Site" buidings. However I have not released them because I need buttons - hint

 

[Hydromancerx]

@Dancing Hoskuld

Sure I will try to find you some too.

Also I noticed that the Dog Kennel doesn't give an XP bonus to Canine units. So either Dogs should be an Animal class too or you should change the Kennels to give XP to Canines.

 

[Thunderbrd]

I think that:
1) Dogs SHOULD be an animal class too. (but not a WILD animal, a la bAnimal tag)
and
2) The Kennels should only give xp to canines.

So here ya go. Included are ...

- Mammoth
- Cave Bear
- Cave Lion
- Dire Wolf (A Bonus Icon)
- Dodo (because I could not find a Moa or Haast's Eagle)

Enjoy!

 

[Dancing Hoskuld]

Thanks, I forgot the wolf, to busy using them elsewhere.

Here is a new graphic for the Cheetah. The exiting one looks weird and deformed. This new one looks much more like a Cheetah. Please replace the old graphic with this new one. Thanks!

DH, i am really (hating) but liking the NEW way the animals "run" away now, and not just sit there and be captured, makes it feel more real, nice touch, if thats what you intended?

Its a real "bear" going after a bear then walking right into THEIR trap, a Neanderthal, OUCH!!!
