About This File
One folder, all the dependencies you need… and even more!
If you don’t want to read the background story, feel free to skip this paragraph. In March 2014, I lost my computer and anything I had on it, including the new under development version of Barsoom Project. One year has been past and I still can’t play SimCity 4 because of my stupid laptop. Well, at least this is what I want you to believe. The truth is that not only I’ve been playing the game all that year, but also I’ve been working on something “unthinkable”. Something that has been asked since the day 1 of the game. Something that everybody wanted it, but nobody even dared to give it a try. The day has come. The “impossible” is finally here!
Most BATs made for SimCity 4 require a handful of dependencies in order to make it work nice and smooth. Unfortunately, hunting down dependencies can be a serious pain on your neck. Some of them are in sites that you have to register at them in order to get them, others has been forgotten even from their creators and can be found only in obscure sites, and others has been outdated and became unavailable to anybody. And as about the slap in your face when you have to download dozens of dependencies for a single building, just please don’t even get me started. I know this feeling. This is why I’m here, to put an end in this pain by introducing the Hyperpack, the fullest dependencies pack ever made.
All this year I’ve been sending messages and begging to all the gods and heroes of SimCity 4 community to give me the permissions I need to make the Hyperpack. It wasn’t easy. It was an arduous process, but somebody had to do it. And that was me. And finally I’ve gotten all the permissions I needed to include ALL of the dependencies ever made in a single folder. Everything you need, from the most important to the most obscure dependencies, is now in a single pack. No more hunting dependencies and spending so much time in downloading and installing them one by one. One single folder, containing 100% of all dependencies files ever uploaded in any exchange. One single pack, with anything you need!
There was one problem, though. I hadn’t had a suitable file compressor to reduce the size of the pack. The folder is 56 gigabytes large, way too big for the Simtropolis server. The only solution I had was to upload it in an external site and give you the link you need in order to get it, plus a few instructions to make it work with no problems. The readme file can be opened only by using Microsoft Word or any other similar program, because it contains pictures for better visualization of the installation progress. Yeah, it’s not as easy as it may looks like, but keep in mind that I’ve spent a whole year to make, while you will be spending a couple of hours to download and install it. Fair trade, right?
Hyperpack. 1 folder, endless possibilities. I hope you enjoy it. Have a nice day ![]()
