About This File

I strongly believe that we need to give a lot of credits to the Maxis team for creating so many things about our favorite game, including a huge variety of grown-able lots of all types of RCI buildings available. But I also believe that we need to admit the elephant in our room and realize that their work at those lots needed some extra work, because the more we examine those lots, the more errors we find, such as misplaced props, empty spaces, missing textures, textures above other textures, parking lots surrounded by fences, homes with no fences at all, pathways that leads to nowhere and the list goes on.

And this is where HRAM comes into the game.

HyperRealism Addon Mod is exactly that it says. A mod that fixes all those problems by changing and upgrading a huge number of RCI lots, making them hyper realistic. By downloading and installing this mod, all homes will get their fences, all parking lots will be connected to your roads, all those unnecessarily empty spaces will be filled by hyper realistic details, and your cities will be so hyper realistic that even the most serious players will envy them. What you see at the pictures is not the entire mod. It's only a small taste of this incredible mod that I've been secretly working on. Don't believe me? You think it's just a text file saying "Happy April Fool's Day"? Then, go ahead! Download it that, and see it by yourself! What do you thing I am? A prankster? :meh: :noway: *:P

Probably the best thing about this mod is the fact that it will make your lots hyper realistic without the need of tons of dependencies, allowing even the vanilla players to admire the wonders of this epic mod. Just make sure you have SimCity 4 Buildings as Props and Rush Hour Buildings as Props which are available here, as well as the Plugin Landmark Props. Oh, and you'll also need to either open a new city, or demolish all the Maxis-made RCI buildings on your already existed cities, if you want to see the wonders of hyper realism unfolded in front of you.

Have fun and have a nice day :D

this mod looks great but i have a question about the "Plugin Landmark Props" requirement..

 

does adding that conflict with "Functional Landmarks" at all?

 

edit2: so i figured out how to install and noticed the issue that others have said about random lots being with replaced with unrelated lots.. had one neighborhood with several of the Magnificent Mayor Statues instead of some the more basic homes..agriculture lots were a huge problem too..to say the least. i like what this mod wants to do but its unusable at this time.

The upload is appreciated @Terring, but I think the lotting needs to be double-checked - the Building model IDs don't match the lots that grow. For example, the Wood Cottage lot grows the Ben Tower model, and the large airport hangar model grows on a Kusin Motors lot. I removed the HRAM files and the problems ceased (the lots that had grown still had to be demolished).

This is one of the rare mods that make players happy BEFORE downloading it. *:ohyes:
The problems mentioned did not happen to me because for the mod to work, you need to not install it correctly. Simple and basic. :yawn:

Incredible work. Congratulations. *:thumb:

Love this idea! The maxis lotting did have some major logical issues. Can this be ran without growing mansions? I have a maxis mansion blocker but would love the  reformatting done to everything else.... hmmmmm
