📋 About This Mod

Welcome to the Prehistoric Pack's first entry, the Woolly Mammoth, the king of the Pleistocene epoch!

Check out these other prehistoric species available for download!

• Seven new variants: Taiga, Steppe, Tundra, Cherry Blonde, Melanistic, Albino and Piebald!

• Original fully custom sculpts!

• Habitat item tags so that you don't have to look up the base animal!

• Full Zoopedia in all 18 languages!

• Interspecies enrichment compatible with many other Cenozoic mods & modern animals!

In order to run this mod, ACSE must be installed. You can obtain ACSE at this link below:

Download ACSE

1) Install ACSE. You can use a program of your choice such as WinRAR, 7-Zip or Window's extract all function to extract the ACSE folder, and drag and drop it on your ovldata folder located at

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Planet Zoo\win64\ovldata

2) Extract Packed_PrehistoricPack_WoollyMammoth with a program of your choice, to obtain the "PrehistoricPack_WoollyMammoth" folder

3) Drag and drop the "PrehistoricPack_WoollyMammoth" folder to your ovldata folder located at:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Planet Zoo\win64\ovldata

Once you have both mod folders installed, you are good to go! Your ovldata folder should now look like this:

And the mod should now be properly installed!

Troubleshooting

A very common mistake is to accidentally install the wrong folder, such as the un-extracted zip file or a "folder within a folder"- mod names shouldn't have a lot of numbers in them, so that would be a dead giveaway. Make sure you have the folder called "PrehistoricPack_WoollyMammoth" and "ACSE" folders in your ovldata. For more questions, you can join the modding discord linked further below.
