"Never use the same rock twice in a row" "Always rotate your rockwork". Proceeds to put 2 of the exact same rock, the same rotation and just as deep literally touching each other. Come on, Jonti! 🙈😂
OMG! This was EXCELLENT!!! The intros great, the builds pimping was stunning.. the comedy was ever better! And the creativity (of the build as well as the series idea) was spot on!!!
Geekism: 'The last thing we need to do is sort out this foliage' Me: *Makes sure I'm sitting comfortably* Honestly, amazing job. I don't know where you get your creativity from but I wish I had a bit of it!
Great vid, nice idea for a series. A quick for doing terrain distribution to make the animal happy is to click the picture and the brush comes straight on, no need to open the terrain tab. So if you hover over and it says you need short grass just click on it and the brush will switch to short grass.
Great intro and a great concept for "how-to's". Really enjoyed watching you help another player out with creative and exciting habitat designs. Can't wait for more episodes after the game launches next week!
I'm loving this series, your Planet Coaster vids got me subbed to this channel and now with Planet Zoo coming up the great content continues! Very excited about to finally play this Zoo iteration myself (it was as concious decision not to go for the beta)!
I believe that I've noticed that there is a rocks maximum an exhibit/habitat could have in it. I noticed that when I place a lot of rocks the % for rocks (ground texture) goes up. It's extremely slow tho, so you can have a ton of them, but there seems to be a max. lovely new video, love the new series, keep them comming :)
Love this concept for a series! I have noticed that some of the animals have problems with rocks. Whenever I add them into the Nile Monitor exhibit, I get massive amounts of injuries.
Im just at the shelter part. I Love this series. Watching you improve something bland helps me a lot more than watching you make from scratch. I Hope you will be doing more :D
I had to make this comment immediately, before even watching the rest of the video. Less than 30 seconds in to the video I knew instantly that I'm going to love this series purely from the statement that this habitat is "so green and flat, I'm surprised old men aren't throwing bowls at it". After the initial hype of planet zoo dies down a little after it's released, I hope this is something you'll consider transferring over to planet coaster (or even any other creative game)
Great video! I just encountered the money bug in my zoo, lol. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, I go from 3 million cash to -200+ billion. RIP my zoo haha.
i absolutely love this, keep it up! ( you should do one for buildings as well!!! im having so much trouble trying to navigate the 'Indian Theme' and trying to make it aesthetic a video will be great :D )
Hey! I'm a gardener and tropical plant keeper by heart. I love the plants in the game. I would love to see the "swiss cheese" plant placed along a large tree, growing up the trunk. Its an aborial plant and gives you a chance to get foilage up high, just connect them in a "vine" :) 💘 your videos. And I can't wait for the game to Come out Fully!!. Oh and Halloween theame building... Like a haunted exhibit house! 🐍🍁🎃👻
I paid for beta, so I can watch you play it. . . It's seriously more entertaining, since I am such a shitty builder, but hey, I think I am definitelz learning loads, so I might well prepared for next week!
Just came back and watched this, what a brilliant idea and a great little series this was! Any more, d'you think? Or are all the geekism viewers too savvy about their PZ habitats now?? (Maybe resurrect it for PK once it's out?!) :-)
With turtle habitats you just have to be careful not to have rocks they can climb on, then fall from, and get wedged between. Like between a rock and a fence or between two rocks. At least in real ones. 😅
My usual worry when meshing rocks and foliage together is the idea that it looks weird for plants, particularly trees, to just be sticking out of solid surfaces. I know there are some plants that CAN grow on rocks, and then there's how freeze-thaw weathering can lead to seeds growing from the middle of them, but I just struggle to make it look natural and real rather than just look plopped down. Although some times I make the excuse that the rock has been carved out to fit a plant that has been manually...well, planted....like what happens with a ton of gardening and animal habitat exhibiting in real life. EDIT: You've done a path and building tutorial. Are, or would you consider, doing a terrain tool tutorial? Explaining each tool, showing how to utilise them best when making habitats and other features and, I feel most useful and most important, how to use the terrain in conjunction with fences and paths. For example, getting water or perfectly straight cliff faces alongside fences with paths that go straight the fence line (or as close as Planet Zoo allows). I couldn't do it with my first attempt at a lemur island, which left a 3ft or so gap between fence and water. My second attempt, with a lowered fenced viewing area looking onto water for a Cape Buffalo exhibit was MUCH more successful and better looking. HOWEVER, if I wasn't already there, it would have driven me insane and I hate the idea of doing it again or on a much bigger scale cause it was so time consuming they way I did it. So I'm hoping you'd be able to show there's a much easier way to pull if off.
So I have this problem where I try to design "good" looking exibits which also provide a good viewing experience for the guests. But I always end up making things to big for the animal I have in there. I also run in to problems with that guests (even if I place custom walkways with glass walls) can't get "a good" view of the animal. My question is really, how do you balance style, animal needs and guest needs and still make it look good? My Zoos are losing Money in most cases and I have a hard time spending time building rather then just puting outfires sort of speak. Love this kind of content, gives me idés and are entertaining. Keep it up. Been subed since the Coaster Days and I Watch your content for these type of videos.
"Never use the same rock twice in a row" "Always rotate your rockwork". Proceeds to put 2 of the exact same rock, the same rotation and just as deep literally touching each other. Come on, Jonti! 🙈😂
Do as I SAY, not as I DO
The point of rules in creativity is knowing when and how to break them ;)
@@Valdore66 Erm, yeah... that :D
Came here to make this comment, wasn’t disappointed😂
That intro is the best!😎
Ha! I spent FAR to long making it, but I think it turned out well!
It turned out amazing!!!! The wheelz on the tortoise!!!
@@Geekism 100% worth it
I play the sims 4 and would die for this level of customization.. definitely so excited to build things in this game!
@Rach we had to wait like 4 years to get em too and it's no where near planet zoo's
"And a shelter that looks like a reject from IKEA" I am dying.
Omg this was such a good idea....thank you for making this a series thing lol 😁😁
Thanks Kayla! Glad you're enjoying it :D
OMG! This was EXCELLENT!!! The intros great, the builds pimping was stunning.. the comedy was ever better! And the creativity (of the build as well as the series idea) was spot on!!!
Hey thanks Joshua, really glad you enjoyed it :D
I love this type of series as it doesn't just help the person who submitted the habitat but also all of us who could use some new ideas!
“Never use the same rock twice in a row” *immediately uses the same rock twice in a row* 😂
Geekism: 'The last thing we need to do is sort out this foliage'
Me: *Makes sure I'm sitting comfortably*
Honestly, amazing job. I don't know where you get your creativity from but I wish I had a bit of it!

A quick for doing terrain distribution to make the animal happy is to click the picture and the brush comes straight on, no need to open the terrain tab. So if you hover over and it says you need short grass just click on it and the brush will switch to short grass.
The intro and music really did it for me 😂. I love this series already!
Hehe, thanks!
Great intro and a great concept for "how-to's". Really enjoyed watching you help another player out with creative and exciting habitat designs. Can't wait for more episodes after the game launches next week!

Thanks! Yeah, tbh if it wasn't for TH-cam I'd be quite happy waiting for release too, but gotta get that algorythm churning! :D
Never normally comment/ like, but that intro got me. Brilliant thanks for the laugh.
Yessss! I love this! I feel like this needs to be a weekly thing when the full game comes out!
Now this was a creative idea for a series. Love the work that went into the intro.
That made such a big difference...looks amazing.
haha, oh my lord
that intro!
11/10
I’m loving this series! Your comments at the start of each one are absolutely hilarious 😂😂😂
I’m literally going to subscribe just for the amazing Planet Zoo habitats!!!
I believe that I've noticed that there is a rocks maximum an exhibit/habitat could have in it. I noticed that when I place a lot of rocks the % for rocks (ground texture) goes up. It's extremely slow tho, so you can have a ton of them, but there seems to be a max. lovely new video, love the new series, keep them comming :)
Definitely gonna use this series as inspiration
Yeah! That's exactly what it's for :D
I love how absolutely extra that intro is, and I am here for it 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Wow this is a series I never knew I needed. Please keep doing this when the full game comes out
Awesome idea, lovely habitat. The only thing missing is a friend.
Honestly love this idea for a series and can’t wait to see some crazy changes in these exhibits!
Love this concept for a series! I have noticed that some of the animals have problems with rocks. Whenever I add them into the Nile Monitor exhibit, I get massive amounts of injuries.
The intro was FIRE!
The music for the time lapse works so well. I love it! Can't wait to see what habitat you will pimp up next. Great work Jonti!
This is a GREAT title for a series!
Love that intro, tortoise got them sweet rims 😂
Im just at the shelter part. I Love this series. Watching you improve something bland helps me a lot more than watching you make from scratch. I Hope you will be doing more :D
What an amazing format. please PLEASE start all of them with a joke or pun. Actually choked on my food.
Such a great idea! I look forward to seeing more exhibits spruced up.
What the hell am I actually watching, I love it
HAHA!
This is amazing. I need this series all the time and after the full release
That is the best Intro ever Jonti - Can't wait to see what is next! Always love your tutorials.
*You are a God*
Nicely done, added a lot more atmosphere to to enclosure.
DUUUUUUDE!!!! That intro made me laugh soooo hard. Good old days. Love it.
this was HILARIOUS! PLEASE MAKE THIS A SERIES!
Amazing work as always Jonti! Keep up the good work!

I just encountered the money bug in my zoo, lol. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, I go from 3 million cash to -200+ billion. RIP my zoo haha.
This is such a good idea!! I would love to see more!!
More coming! :D
that intro alone is worth the thumbs up :D
Everything looks fantastic! You might remember me from some your videos because I am a HUGE fan keep up the good work!
This is my favouritr series you've uploaded based on the intro alone 🐢
Love this! Always fun watching your videos ^-^ getting me pumped for launch
Probably the best intro on TH-cam
I think buildings CAN come with habitats. Looks like you have to make sure you click on the habitat walls, then go straight to the construction tab.
That looks great! Really enjoyed watching this.
This is a fun idea; looking forward to seeing more episodes!
Excellent idea. Thoroughly enjoyable.
Yes!!! The funky build music is back!!!!
When you said “if this this turtles I would turn my self into turtle soup” I died laughing
Love the idea of this series! Amazing intro!
This is so much fun to watch! Brilliant idea!
That intro was beautiful, thank you 😂💫
Love this idea for a series! So much fun :)
I am so looking forward to this series!!
i absolutely love this, keep it up! ( you should do one for buildings as well!!! im having so much trouble trying to navigate the 'Indian Theme' and trying to make it aesthetic a video will be great :D )

That intro was awesome!
I love this idea!! Excited to see more
Love this series idea, like HGTV Fixer Uppers for PZ!!! Can I send you my whole zoo??? LOL
Great idea geekism! 👍
This is gonna be a great series!!!!!! :) I'm looking forward to it :)
not even in the sims my houses are this cute
What a great new thing!!! Love this idea.
Cool
Hahaha I really like the idea and the intro is great!
Great idea for a series!
i hope youll continue doing this when the game launches in nov!!!
I paid for beta, so I can watch you play it. . . It's seriously more entertaining, since I am such a shitty builder, but hey, I think I am definitelz learning loads, so I might well prepared for next week!
Your a pretty good remodeler. Looks awesome
Don't know if you know this but you can use the ] and [ to change the size of brushes easily. :)
We need more of this! 😆😆😆
The MOST extra turtle house in history. XD
Was it just me or was any one else just smiling away on that intro 😄
That intro tho 🔥
When full game is released you should also do rate my habitat
great intro lol, great series idea!
This is the Grand Designs of Planet Zoo lol
Love this idea
Great work Jonti
There you are! Haven't seen your name pop up for ages... thought you'd fell out with me :P
Around my water features I tend to use Lobster claws with an elephant ear base to fill it out a little bit, don't know if that's just me though.
Sounds like a good combo!
@@Geekism You should try it yourself some time.
Great video, such a good idea, loving the intro as well! I actually made a habitat for you, I hope it’s okay.
Awesome video!!!
Thank you!
@@Geekism your welcome :)

This is a brilliant idea
Thanks!
Glorious Intro!
Hehe, thanks :D
I always get very depressed when I compare your buildings with my crappy things xD
Can u just pimp out my zoo please? Every habitat looks like the original tortoise enclosure XD
This is Brilliant
This is so entertaining
subbed...im so hyped for this game
Thanks! Welcome :)
My usual worry when meshing rocks and foliage together is the idea that it looks weird for plants, particularly trees, to just be sticking out of solid surfaces. I know there are some plants that CAN grow on rocks, and then there's how freeze-thaw weathering can lead to seeds growing from the middle of them, but I just struggle to make it look natural and real rather than just look plopped down.
