About this image

Hey all! Bit of a tangent/pitch ahead.

I've been heavily into modding since the first Zoo Tycoon games, and my favorite additions as a kid were 100% the dragons and wyverns. I know there's mixed discussion around whether or not fantasy animals belong in Planet Zoo but I'm not here to discuss that--for people that DO, I'm itching to expand mythical options in the game.

I have more concept art in the works, but I've been thinking a lot about a modded Dragons of the World, or Fantasy pack. Hopefully containing the following:

- Wyvern
- Drake
- Basalisk
- Pheonix (not a dragon, I know)
- Western Dragon

Personally, I have yet to learn how to mod planet zoo. However I AM experienced with texturing, concept art/color variations, and altering Blender models. If there's a seasoned modder who'd be interested in working on this, I'd love to offer what I can!

(Artwork is mine, original influence taken from the bongo and ostrich.)

    "interested in working on this" Most people won't be likely to mod something like this without a commission. Your best bet is to commission it and offer what you can

      I meant as a collaborative effort; the models and textures are something I'll likely be working on myself. I value and respect the time that the modding community puts into their creations, I know from experience how hard it is.

      If they are actually willing to create both the model and texture, I'm sure someone would be willing to get it coded. If anything most of what some modders do is help code other people's models so they can work better together

      OP, you'll probably want to join the modding discord if you want to get started with modding
