• If you decide to embark on a client's request with a Type 2 e-mail (with an exclamation
point), you will need to click on the "Ok" button in the mail first. Select "Yes" on the next
screen and the client's request will become your current mission objective. The "Ok" button
will also change to "Reply".
If you exit out to the mail in-box, you will see a little red tick on the request. This denotes
that the selected request is now active. If you leave the Base Camp and go to the mission
objective area, the scripted event should take place so that you could take the requested
picture. If you decide to go on the mission without performing the above step, you will
return to Base Camp empty handed.

Mission 001
This is the first e-mail that you receive and it always remains in the inbox. Use this often to submit
new photos to HQ. The new animals that you have taken will be added to the Field Guide and this
will trigger the clients' photo requests to appear in the in-box the following morning.
Please see the Appendix for full information about where to find every animal in the game.

Hippo Yawning
Mission 004
Giraffe Drinking
Mission 005
Cheetah’s Hunting (Big Game #1)
The Safari Guide will first drive you to the location. Then, he will continue to drive you around the
Safari area in circles as the sun comes up. You will spot the cheetah on your second pass through
the area if you are using the binoculars. Do not use the camera viewfinder to try to spot it, the Big
Game Trophy sequence will not trigger. Always use the binoculars only.
Once you catch sight of the Cheetah, the sequence will start. Completing this mission should
unlock the Kiboko Swamp area (you’ll get an e-mail about it the next day).
Camera Tip: For best results, enable the Continuous Advance (3 frames per second)
operation mode on your Sony Alpha 100.

Giraffe (Face Close-up)
Mission 012
Elephant
Mission 013
African Buffalo
Although this is a mission you must accept, the picture you use doesn’t necessarily have to be
taken while the mission is accepted. For example, I just used the first picture I had taken of the
Buffalo, and it worked because it happened to be close enough.

This mission can be a bit tricky. The shot has to be pretty close, and I think it might help if the
crane is facing in the direction of the camera. Although the video e-mail shows two cranes,
only one needs to be in the picture.
