Just got it working after some confusion.So after downloading the zip files, and extracting them (so the folders no longer have that "zipper" on the icon lol). While trying to figure this out I downloaded dxsetup which is above files in the mount. After this is finished you should be good to go. While it is downloading it will ask for the separate discs. This is what you would copy and paste onto the desktop incase you wanted a shortcut). Now with the name changed, go back a page in the file explorer and click auto run (the game will only run correctly with auto run. If the game still says it needs a cd then download and replace the zt file with the new one. In the desktop folder you should now be able to change the name and proceed using the desktop folder. Copy EVERYTHING and paste it into the newly made desktop folder. Now in your file explorer go back to the page before you hit files. If the program says you dont have administrator permission, make a new folder on your desktop. Then click files and rename the zt file *zt-backup.exe* (If the program says you dont have administrator permission look at the step below). With that copied go into your file explorer (yellow folder at bottom of screen on the task bar.) and click on the mounted program. Next download the NOCD if you havnt already.

If you're doing it for the purposes of playing Zoo Tycoon 2, you could look for a copy of Windows XP for maximum compatibility, but looking and finding are two different things, and if you do find one, installing XP to an online computer comes with some security risk. The main drawback of this approach would likely be procuring a copy of Windows. I have about an hour's worth of experience with Apple computers so don't know off the top of my head how to do so, but I believe the gist is to create a partition on your hard drive, install Windows to the partition, then use a piece of software to manage which OS you boot into on startup.
