Oh my heavens! The female unicorn looks dare I say- perfect! As for the male, it's almost
perfect. It would be better if you made its mane, goatee and tail hair-tuft black as well(or at least very dark gray, like its snout). Please let the unicorns be Temperate forest European animals like in ZT1. As for the merfolk, I will not talk about them since they(along with Magnet the bear) are my least favourite animal in ZT1. Well done, great work. All of these downloads are a work of art. :clap:
I originally had the black unicorn be all black but the beard is one color for all the models so looks weird without a matching mane/tail. I will play around with the files to see if this can be fixed (it worked for the original geladas so there must be a way).

As for the mermaids, they were an idea of Whalebites and he meshed them to use the oarfish animations. I will try them with regular manatee animations but I feel they will still be pretty limited in their movements. I did put the sound effects from ZT1 for the mermaids for their sounds as well as a human scream when on land. Unfortunatly due to the limitations of the game all I have are female screams so the mermen have girly voices c:

Well the manatee animations failed. It not only distorted the models but caused a bug where the tank was constantly dirty.

As a result I am going to release it using the oarfish models, at least they work good that way and, as they will be Public Domain, someone with experience in Blender can just re-make them with the animations they want.

With the mermaids out of the way, let me introduce you to another missing animal originally from the original Zoo Tycoon. Say hello to the yeti!

Yeti Male and Female

I will make bigfoot next to complete the ZT1 monster set. (Minus Nessie since Paranoia already did her).

Thank you for all the positive comments on the yeti. The game really needed a new one and, as i was doing a unicorn and mermaid, I figured we needed a yeti and sasquatch too. I may re-do several old mods that I used to enjoy so much in the older game such as the party tiger and zebra or the golden elephant just for the fun of it.

Here are the most recent updates for New Athens:

Here is Bigfoot (also known as Sasquatch). I have three variants ranging from light to dark brown but the only color I got was the default shade. Maybe next time I will get a different shade. The head is slightly smaller than the Yeti and the arms shorter for less gorilla-like proportions.

My partner WorkowatyWilczek asked for clothing on the Cynocephalus. As I like the naked/werewolf version I decided to make it a hack so one can have the version they want for the game. Here is the version with clothes on.

The Unicorn Definitely Final Version. I have cracked the coding for coloring and having the baby variants grow into the adult version of the same color. I have also gotten them to grow to juvenile age. Just waiting to make sure they grow into adulthood before re-coding the pegasus to the new codes. Once that is done I will release all final New Athens creatures in one pack then release the rest individually.

Next time will be the final version of the pegasus and the release of the pack.

Absolutely beautiful! Can’t wait for the release. Do you plan on doing any of the other Cryptid Apes like the Yowie or Orang Pen dek?

Diet wise Sasquatch was an omnivore eating fish, berries, fruit and vegetables stolen from farms, and small animals or carcasses(again) stolen from predators. While yetis are completely carnivorous preferring to dine on the native sheep and yaks of the Himalayas

The unicorn is proving troublesome. The juveniles are growing into the wrong skins (the default white one with gold hooves). If I can't fix this I may have to release it with only a baby and adult stage.
Oh well, at least the beard is right, LOL.

Edit:

On the bright side I am releasing the Collared Lizard, it is now in the download section. It is Public Domain, I apparently forgot to fill that section out. If anyone wants to edit it I will appreciate it.


I found a way around the unicorn problem. The animals grow to all three ages with all variants possible. The catch: At each stage they turn to a random variant. A black baby may turn bay then white (much like a grey horse) or some other shade at random.

Oh well, at least all my new adults are not a single color anymore. Who knew adding a beard would cause such a problem.

Should I keep this code as is and use the same coding for the pegasi (the ones in Fantasia kept randomly changing color too) or take time to get help to fix the bug before releasing the pack? :D

I think that you can "keep this code as is and use the same coding for the pegasi" and, if you want, fix the bug later. c:

By the way I love seeing the Yeti and Sasquatches! Good job.
