I kept putting it in the top folder with autorun, setup, etc because I'm a bit of a muppet. This needs to be put in the extracted 'files' folder and overwrites the zt.exe file already there. If you try to play the game through autorun.exe, it will ask you to insert disc 1, which is where the cd-crack comes in.ģ) To solve the cd-crack and make the game work without, download the cd-crack file from the link which Zooooom provided above from megagames. bin files to the individual folders/files, so had to download a program to do this (PowerISO through google).Ģ) Install the software through setup.exe in the usual way. I'm using windows 10 and didn't have a program which converted the. It took me quite a while to get this working so I'll share the steps for the next person with the easy step by step instructions I wished I had!ġ) Download the above zip files and extract them. So follow the same instructions I provided for Disc 2 and Disc 3 (Found in the 'Zoo Tycoon 2 Win EN Ultimate Collection ISO' if you forgot!), and the installation will complete! Have fun!

Double click to run, and begin the installation! the installer will prompt you to insert disc 2, and disc 3 when its finished with disc 1. Then you should see the Zoo Tycoon 2 CD under 'Devices and drives'. There you will see your 'Local Disk (C:)' drive, and any other drives you have on your computer. Then when that is done, head to 'This PC' (or 'My Computer' for older systems for those who remember that!). Then the WinCDEmu program will ask you which letter drive to assign it to (choose any).

You have to download that WinCDEmu program that ENJOY mentioned in his how-to comment.Īfter doing that, go into the 'Zoo Tycoon 2 Win EN Ultimate Collection ISO' folder then select the 'Zoo Tycoon 2 Ultimate Collection (USA) (Disc 1)'. Just got it working after some confusion.So after downloading the zip files, and extracting them (so the folders no longer have that 'zipper' on the icon lol).
