Building a Gorilla Mountain in Franchise Mode! | San Bernardino Zoo | Planet Zoo

[@p-aboily5981]

I love how San Bernardino has so many monkeys and apes without pulling the focus out of the other animals, there's a lot of potential in that concept. Once again, keep up the good work my man!

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@BEER_OF_GAMING]

man this series just keeps getting better and better

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@eniab4616]

I really love the way you blend structures into the terrain. It makes it look realistic and purposeful. Like many others I prefer longer videos, I like hearing where you got your inspiration from and the thoughts behind each design.

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

[@joarlarsen3688]

Im actually obsessed with this series

[@ZSHplays]

Great to hear 😁

[@l0serboi]

I know it’s definitely more work, but I LOVE longer episodes. And this one was so nice, I absolutely adore this habitat. Your builds never fail to amaze me!

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks! It's gone down well so there will be more in future when I feel the build requires it!

[@southeasternlover]

This Exhibit is Amazing, it looks so realistic and I liked the part where you explained the inspiration. Definitely the best series of Planet Zoo on KZbin so far along with the Ecosystems ones.

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@sparrow838_]

I'm not a big fan of apes or primates and don't think I've EVER built for them in PZ, but you may have just changed my mind 😅 That shot of the gorilla in the forest was beautiful, and the viewing areas you've set up are so interesting and fun to watch. Did not mind the longer video in the slightest, 15-20min is the sweet spot I think!

[@ZSHplays]

Great to hear! Thanks! Yeh the Gorillas In The Mist shot is my favourite as well!

I really love the way you design things, I just got the game and though I loved it at first, I had lots of trouble with being creative, I’ve been watching videos and yours have been the one to help the most, I started building in sandbox to get a feel for creativity and im already seeing progress after watching your videos. Thank you so much and your builds are amazing!!

I'm so glad you decided not to cut short the video ! I wouln't mind format of this lenght, bc I can't get enough of your beautiful work ! I love the viewings and how you worked so hard to make their habitat so natural and lush, nice work as always !!!

[@allanbalingit6101]

I just purchased the game , and immediately your videos popped up ,and I was never disappointed I even watched your videos form years ago. I'm really inspired although I'm new to planet zoo hoping to get more ideas from you. Thank you.

[@ZSHplays]

Welcome to the channel! Glad you enjoyed them, new episode in 50 minutes! 😁

[@COVNT_Meesix]

Amazing video! This habitat reminds me of Taronga's current Gorilla habitat: open space with a few plants and a lot of climbing with their indoor shelter inside of a small, artificial mountain. although, the viewing isn't glass and is just a bamboo fence under a hatched roof looking over a moat. It sucks that we will never get mountain gorillas in the game. However, even in real life no zoo will ever will be able to house mountain gorillas. Nowadays, all gorillas from zoos come from other zoos, and back when gorillas were being captured for captivity, all mountain gorillas caught, died on their journey back to zoos. So they stuck with capturing Western Lowland Gorillas, and they're the only species you will ever find in zoos

[@ZSHplays]

I've not see Taronga's! Ironic considering I used so much of their Australian area for inspo!

[@COVNT_Meesix]

@@ZSHplays when i go again i'll have to take some photos for clarity ahaha

[@ZSHplays]

Haha you came through for me last time!

[@Monkey3ater]

Idk if you do requests for like zoos but I would really like to see you do something from Zoo Knoxville I think it be really cool to see any animal from the zoo and a similar enclosure from the zoo for them

[@ZSHplays]

Not normally, any habitats you would recommend there?

[@Monkey3ater]

@@ZSHplays not really they do have a website but a lot of there animals there aren’t in the game but you could substitute them for something else I will look tho

[@Monkey3ater]

The gibbon or really any of the monkey enclosures are some suggestions they have really cool climbing areas

[@flis9618]

Absolutely beautiful, all those different views are amazing! ❤️ I don’t mind your videos being longer, I could watch you build for hours & sometimes I get sad because the video is to short 😅

[@ZSHplays]

Glad to help!

[@Possumbreath]

I love longer videos where you really go into your process, its fun to see your thoughts as you build. Do you ever sketch things out on paper first to get an idea? I've found that's the best way for me to get started, otherwise it's hard to picture when you're looking at a blank map.

[@ZSHplays]

I sketch most habitats out first actually, it definitely helps. Next episode is all about the process so I think you'll enjoy it!

[@Possumbreath]

@ZSHplays oooo, very excited! I'm trying to do an eco brutalist zoo right now and it's definitely been a learning process

[@zanzillavids7759]

Nice build oso I rlly like how all ur normal videos are like 15 to 20 min since its quite easy to sit through and watch rather than enduring an average 30 min plus average pz video. So thank u for ur great videos. (Oso love how this zoo is becoming an empire lol)

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks! Yes 20 mins is the longest episode so far, I like the 15-20 format, it seems to fit really well.

[@acefox74]

Incredible building as always my friend

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@gabiz2034]

I love your gameplay. You are using speed build but it’s not as radiculous fast speed as different channels. Love it

[@ZSHplays]

My patented slow build technique 😆 Thanks!

[@coasterzigner]

Beautiful!!!!! My only questionable gripe is that Gorillas tend to prefer privacy and get annoyed seeing people stare at them (direct source from San Diego Zoo, actually). But I think this habitat is fairly even enough in those natural views being kindof not too obtrusive for the gorillas. I could be wrong. It's just something to consider.

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks! I've heard that actually, there are two spaces, 1 just outside the shelter and 1 near the door of the shelter where they can't be seen - it would be better to have more but I didn't want the habitat to be any bigger.

[@Mr1OPercent]
