Author's instructions
All Radical Remake ZT2 Part A models are public domain. All Radical Remake ZT2 Part B models are public domain. All Radical Remake MM Part A models are public domain. All of Hendrix (DinosaurMan,) Triceraptor Rex, Okeanos, Dudemeister, Yukon and Platypus's models and skins are public domain.
If you have any doubts whether something you want to use is public domain or not, or if you want to ask for special permission to use something that is not PD, private message an Aurora Designs team member (such as Mayer) with your query.
A lot of these PD animals cannot really be edited to make other animals or subspecies (eg. cheetah, okapi, or the orca) and although you may use them if you want they MUST be original and not just a few edits, rendering animals given as examples previously somewhat unusable as PD animals, but individual parts of the models may come in useful. Credit must still be given though.
One last thing, if anyone wants to edit and release a project with any of Simba's models from the first three packs, you MUST contact Aurora Designs beforehand so they can ensure the edits are sufficient and original enough to be given permission.
Aurora Designs hopes you enjoy using their work as a base to make more animals for this game, but try to be original and different. Don't just do simple edits and take all the glory. They want to see creativity!

"Over the years, both our team and its individual members have created dozens of additional animals and objects for the game. The best of these projects are bundled here for the first time with improved quality. Boasting 41 animals*, more than 60 plants and trees and two complete themes, this is the ultimate collection of Aurora Designs material!
In order to compile this set, a lot of preparation work had been done to assess which projects could be incorporated and what could be improved. We ended up remaking a good portion completely from scratch, while other parts were updated for better performance and gameplay.
Long story short, this is the definitive collection of Aurora Designs’ bonus animals.
New Campaign
Play the first usermade scenario for Zoo Tycoon 2 and unlock an unlockable animal!
Improved Visuals
We tried to bring everything to a consistent and high level of quality.
New Content
In addition to the updates, CC also contains previously unreleased and new things!
Optimization
Everything uses Levels of Detail (LODs) and BFB models wherever possible for ideal performance.
Scenic Foliage
Edited normals allow for believable shading, and the wind effect adds that little extra touch of realism.
Sleek Icons
All icons have been updated to match our modern UI color scheme.
Extensive Localization
We have provided automatic translations for all animals to reach as many players as possible."
