I think my problem with this whole system is that I don't have the creative mind that others have where I come up with something before I start building. And I get discouraged fast when it doesn't do what I want it to do and I end up quitting frustrated and upset instead of having fun. I'm glad that others enjoy it, I really am, I just...wish I could too.
I was just like you! What helped me a lot was downloading Workshop content, breaking it apart, and then making my own reusable pieces for barriers, paths, buildings, etc. Play around in the designer and try making building blocks first, then you can put them together to really build an art piece!
This game would be infinitely better if the building system wasn't that clunky. I often have a plan for a build/habitat, but either the terrain and path tool work against me or the grid alignment stops working. And when I have a zoo I'm a bit proud of, I get too many visitors and my framerate drops into the 20s on a high end PC. This game needs fixing asap, but they decide to release DLC after DLC ... Still can't stop playing tho, lol
@@matsimoto3541 I doubt that you have 20 FPS with a high end PC. I only have a 3080 but I can still play this game on ultra settings 2K in my big zoos with atleast 80fps
I can't imagine making anything so beautiful. But I just started for the first (real) time last night. I drew out my idea and tried it on freeplay. It wasn't as cute as I imagined in my head, but it's a start, and nothing is ever set it stone.
Oh my gosh, this was very helpful. Your builds are so very inspiring. I have been struggling with not sticking with a zoo. I'll work hard on it and then compare it to other people's amazing creations and then scrap it and start over. You're so right that it's really just about having fun and relaxing and enjoying the game. Thanks for the tips!
The last tip was honestly a very important one :D I get very overwhelmed with this game (which is why I don't play it too much) and it's ok to just STOP if you don't want to finish a build! Great vid, the habitats look so gorgeous
I was so pre-occupied being a building perfectionist I realised I wasn't having fun, so I stopped caring about absolute perfect alignment and and just built, and my new zoo is. Coming along very nicely after only a week.
Absolutely LOVE your tutorials! I'm building Land of Oz zoo, and any tips I can pick up from you I will put to good use! Fantastic job! You have such imagination and creativity!
I feel really inspired by this video! You do gorgeous work!!! I stopped playing for a while, when I came back...all the animals aren't recognizing the hard shelters I'd built before and I have no clue why. I'm gonna check out your other videos and see if I can't figure out what changed. LOL I'm really excited to jump back in and see what all I can come up with! Thank you!!!!
My problem is not that I don't want to be creative. I'm trying to enjoy this game, because I actually really love it, despite not creating anything super impresive. But seeing others creating such awesome habitats makes me really feel bad about myself.
Don't feel bad. Everyone's different, you will get better at building stuff as time goes on but aslong as you are enjoying the game that's most important thing.
You know what artists do over their lives? They practise! Practise makes perfect and perfect is what is perfect to you. Take your time and pace yourself, if you are enjoying the experience you will create amazing things. Also taking inspiration from others is always okay!
When I am buildings something, for example a fence, it is always going to somewhere even if I copy this - so I can't build straight, everyithing goes at some angle. And disguise a habitat's entrance is also difficult. So I really fastinated by people who actually can create all beautiful and neat buildings and habitats!
Your King has two k's! 🤪 (0:25) So, that would make Him Kharlesk III? But excellent tutorials for zoo-noob like me! Keep 'em coming. Gonna steal EVERYTHING for mine! (Actually not. But gonna steal at least that way of building paths, as normal path building is pain in **** on this game. I really miss Cities Skylines move-it for this game too.
i feel bad that i can't make such beautiful habitat after 100h of playing time, my habitat are still shit compared to what i'm seeing on videos, i'm not a creative person. At least, it amaze me to watch it lol
Do the buildings I make function as the shelter for the animals? Like if I make a shed out of the construction material does it count as a hard shelter? And do guests walk in there on their own if it’s touching a path or do I have to run a path in there?
Do you add/remove foliage in line with your animals environment needs? I love using foliage but then have guests complaining there’s too much (depending on the animal).
I love your Planet Zoo tutorials - on this video on custom barriers, did you say that the animals can or can not get through custom barriers? Meaning will I get an error message of some kind stating that an animal escape b/c of my custom barriers? Great job on your videos, you are my "go-to" guy on Planet Zoo.
Old video I know, but I'm pretty new to Planet Zoo now that I have a PC capable of playing it. With custom barriers, do you need to put the null barrier through it or just a bit ahead of the barrier to keep animals from escaping?
I spent so much money on this game but no matter what I do I can't build something I'm proud of... I get so frustrated when j can't build. I just wanna have fun creating a beautiful zoo but I can't! I'm a teenager I'm supposed to be creative but I'm not.. Someone please help I wanna play but I get so frustrated instead of having fun : (
Such a great tutorial, man, presented using a bunch of awesome builds and ideas! You deserve more likes, views and subs. Got 1 of each from me, at least this much I can do :)
It looks absolutely gorgeous, but I think for me it's way too time consuming and exhausting. I wish I had the energy and patience to do this, but meh. To me it's all about the animal. The only perk I see from this is that it seems that the barrier will never break down? So no repairs and the mechanics have more time to do other things? Also, to me, the building and the building tools are so clunky, it's frustrating. I wish there was an easier way to build. Custom paths, however, make no sense to me. The actual paths serve a purpose and are actually usable. The custom ones aren't.
The in game barriers are so awful but yet they want us to buy the game and then but 1500 DLCS to enjoy the game. There isn't much options to get creative. The base doesn't have construction pieces are ass. It's deff thrown me off. Why I'm looking at these videos and every video I've seen is using dlc packs.

Pinterest for inspiration is great. It doesn’t even necessarily have to be an image of a zoo enclosure.

Great tips!! Have finally started using custom barriers in my build and the difference it makes is crazy!
Glad it could help you and using custom barriers really makes a difference doesn't it 😉
Also gotta remember rocks and foilage can take up animal space, so plan ahead! 😊Thank you for the tips!!!
Your advice has heightened my gameplay immensely

i hate how as a new player i keep coming back to this video and remembering i already watched it before
I just hope it can help you in some way
I cant build like this and I will never be able too, I dont have the eye for detail sadly! But your habitats look so pretty! Subscribed

Have fun!

Here is my video on hard shelters. Every you need to know is here: ruclips.net/video/in1c6u9Uh8E/видео.htmlsi=IqLi5DC8dfxthTxX
This tutorial helps a lot! What about animals that need higher resistance grade fencing? would they break the custom ones?
Custom fences are unbreakable and don't require a grade
Do you add/remove foliage in line with your animals environment needs? I love using foliage but then have guests complaining there’s too much (depending on the animal).
I do, if I play franchise but I don't care in sandbox mode

Meaning will I get an error message of some kind stating that an animal escape b/c of my custom barriers? Great job on your videos, you are my "go-to" guy on Planet Zoo.
That's correct animals can not escape them, and you will not get a error message
I play on PS 5 and it starts lagging sooo bad when i add many details :/
my animals always cry about too many coverage how do i fix that?
Old video I know, but I'm pretty new to Planet Zoo now that I have a PC capable of playing it. With custom barriers, do you need to put the null barrier through it or just a bit ahead of the barrier to keep animals from escaping?

@@adamup tysm!
So does height not matter when making custom fences etc? excluding animals that can climb obviously
It should do no for some reason
I don’t have any dlcs
Does using custom stuff actually have utility or is just for visual for you and guests kinda act like normal ?
Just looks better
Such a great tutorial, man, presented using a bunch of awesome builds and ideas! You deserve more likes, views and subs. Got 1 of each from me, at least this much I can do :)
Thank you so much
Where do u get custom fences and mods ?
Make your own custom fences, or download them of the steam workshop. For mods, I don't really use them, but the best place for them is nexusmods
im watching this while having diarreha
Make sure you wipe
