When I click create new project, then click open. I click on animals and it doesn't show any microsoft origional animals in the folder. What should I do to fix it? :mellow: :huh:

two quick questions: are you on Windows XP? Does it show any animals at all (other than the original M$ animals)?

No I'm on Windows ME and yes but only when I open downloaded animals, then click on open an animal it shows the animal I just opened.

Where and when did you download this? It sounds like the config.ztd doesn't have the paths in the animals.cfg file. When you play ZT, the animals do show up, right?

I downloaded it on Jan 29 and last time I checked they worked I've got to leave so I'll check again when I'm back

Hmm, does Ape has problems with Windows XP? Because I have a new computer and it has Windows XP.. XD

XP is the best platform on which to use APE, so my guess would be XP is not the cause of the problem...

Yes they do show up(sorry for the late response, I had a science fair project and now I have a speech at school :XP: )

I've used APE on Wn 98, Win ME, and Win XP. The only problems I had was with 98 and ME, and that was simply the fact that the animals/objects were invisible.
