Special note: Aquatic mods (sharks, whales, dolphin, fish, etc) require some land space in order to be placed down by keepers, as well as to give birth. If your animal is stuck in Offspring Imminent, there is not enough land space available for them to give birth.
How do I use mods?
Download the file, unpack the file and place the folder into your Steam Library via: \steamapps\common\Planet Zoo\win64\ovldata
Why do I need ACSE?
ACSE is a tool for modders to add more special features to mods that we couldn't add without it. You install it exactly the same way as other mods by unpacking the file and placing the folder into your Steam Library via: \steamapps\common\Planet Zoo\win64\ovldata
Can I translate your mod into another language?
Absolutely - I'd be most grateful if you did. You can reach out to me on the modding Discord (Jen).
Can I use your mod as a base to make my own mod?
Yes, but I'd appreciate you crediting me and linking back to my original.
