Renee's projects; Corn cobs!

Hi everyone! I decided to throw myself into the Zoo Tycoon 2 designing ring. Starting small, I made a corn cob as animal food. I'm gonna try to figure out how to work out the coding myself at first -- if impossible I'd love to collaborate with someone on that.

Constructive criticism is appreciated! I use a student version of Maya and Photoshop. Images used for the texture are all royalty-free.

More diverse food is really needed. The corn looks great

It looks great especially for a first design (I for one still don't know how to mesh for example :P ).

Looking great so far, it's always nice having more 3D animal foods.

No good hero is a one-trick phony.

This would be great for feeder boxes a la cabin in the woods :)

Well for a first try, it seems kinda corny *shot*

Come on, 7 people above me posted and none of you thought of that?... NVM my Great Grandfather was a corn and dairy farmer so I guess the joke was just easy to come to mind.


Anyway, it is neat to see a new food. Remakes are welcome but seeing 20 or more of the same thing in different ways gets old. This is very refreshing to see.

Can you make a dried version too? I can see birds and rodents going crazy for these.

Thanks so much for all the comments! I had no idea it'd blow up like this. It means a lot to me!

Very corny indeed. :P Though this is my first Zoo Tycoon project, I'm a game art student with a knack for 3d and really wanted to contribute to the Zoo Tycoon community because the game is basically my way of calming down after a long day, it's brought me a lot of good vibes. That said, all the material I share here will be public domain, unless otherwise noted.

And Thom, thanks for the offer, it's much appreciated! It's cool to know you guys are willing to help out. And I can definitely make a dried version as well!

I'm thinking of making small animal skeletons under glass at some point that fit on the restaurant tables, medical set etc. They'd look cool in indoor viewing spots. Also! Suggestions on objects I can make are welcome as well! I'm confident enough in my 3D skills. Not sure if I can work on all of them but I'll definitely try.

I also tend to be long-winded. Sorry. :3

How about making more human food? Like making a burger scenery object.

Nice corns! Really nice work <staring at those corns>!
Not only birds and rodents but also pigs like corn. They'll be a great addition to the game.

More variation in what the guests eat, that would be nice, for example, pizza, or fish & chips.
