Paeng's Forum Attachments (Ye Olde Scrabble Box)

[catty-cb 4,392]

These following posts contain the notes that Paeng made for the forum attachments he had over at SimPeg, also on talking to him he gave me the following permission re his SC4 plugins

Quote

Feel free to re-package, bundle or re-distribute any of those things any way you may find useful... This permission is valid for ALL content I ever created and/or published anywhere - whatever you find, you can use any way you deem fit, no strings attached except for a small notice as to the origins.

If that helps anyone to fill in small gaps in their collections - wonderful!

As I'm sure Paeng would have been ok with this, I am expanding the permission I received from Paeng regarding his SC4 Custom Content to include @Tyberius06 and also the Simtropolis Staff including @Cyclone Boom and @CorinaMarie

Note from PAENG

Digging through some old threads I noticed quite a few attachments that were made during the discussion or development of various projects... These things tend to just scroll out of memory together with their threads - which in some cases might be a waste, as some of these little by-products could still be useful to some.

So to at least be able to find them I pulled them all together and threw them in this here 'scrabble box' - without too many words or explanations ... and more often than not probably an incomplete listing of dependencies.

Paeng's Complete List of Dependencies

The following is a complete list of all dependencies used for my custom lots. Search your plugin folder – probably you'll have most of them already installed. I usually take care to utilize packs that are widely used or come in handy sizes. If you have all the listed packs, you can use any of my lots without further complications.

Note: Sometimes links do change – specially for dependencies. Should you encounter problems with any links in the read_me-file of a download, please come back here to verify – the links on this page and in the DownloadCenter will always be up-to-date!

General Dependencies

Right now these dependencies are needed for all 'MTP AddOns'. However, it is safe to assume that these items will be also needed for future releases of 'non-MTP AddOns'. To avoid endless redundancy, these files are NOT listed in the 'DownloadCenter', so make sure you have them all before you install the addons!

• The PEG Terrain Kit (7 n 1)- Link Updated

@catty-cb, some links was invalid or gone! Here the some I found it!

Village Church St Bartholomews => https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=358

[catty-cb 4,392]

Hi @AsimPika3172

Thanks for the link, the posts above yours were written by Paeng, and its been a few years since he left the SC4 Community ... so I would say most of the links will be invalid now, I'm updating the posts as and when I find the spare time to do so.

 

[Tyberius06 12,189]

Hi @catty-cb!

Do you still want me to make the "official" uploads of Paeng's files under his name? Because I started to sort out a few things on my computer and started to undertake the Paeng Scrabblebox too. Also I'm into organizing other stuffs too... And a few files are already sorted out from Paeng.

Other thing: could you update the SFBT Essentials and the BSC MegaProps SG vol. 1 link and move it to the LEX section? The STEX versions of both files are rather outdated.  OK, now I see, that is the original list from Paeng from his page. I didn't say anything...

Thanks in advance!

- Tyberius/Tibi

EDIT: Paeng has a file called Embankments_v3a which is at its currents stage the exact copy of Morifari's Elevated Rail Embankment 30 Final Version 0.2 with new IIDs on the lots. It was dated 15.04.2014 as the creation date. I haven't found any other differences between this version and the original, he even has the same missing dependency as on one of  the original lot, which probably a left over prop from one of the earlier versions what Morifari made and forgot to remove it 14 years ago. 
Also I don't see this in you list above. I don't think we should release this in any way. But it's up to you.

Hi @Tyberius06

As per our exchange of PM's the answer is yes and its very much appreciated your taking on this task.

I agree given there is no information anywhere in Paeng's documents regarding the Embankment file and what he was trying to do with it, it shouldn't be released.

For anyone visiting this topic either check with Tyberius06 or myself regarding the forum attachment and dependency lists ...the aim is to have all the attachments as proper STEX plugins this may take some time so those files that are still to be uploaded to the STEX will be attached to the second post in this topic, once they are uploaded to the STEX they will be deleted as attachments and replaced with URL Links to the STEX ... the dependency list will be updated at some point, but will be more a reference document if anyone needs it

[Tyberius06 12,189]

Here is the next one!

Paeng's Surf Shacks

It seems a very basic lot set, all the lots more-or-less have the default PIM-X 1x1 park lot stats. I kept everything as is, except the folder structure and the new readme.

  Thanks I'm hoping to have a couple of spare hours this weekend to finish updating post 2 with either links or attachments .... then have another look thru my site and see what else needs to be copied over to Simtropolis.

[Cyclone Boom 16,875]

Hi Catty,

Just a quick update to say...

I noticed from a STEX file reported to have broken links had the "English Oak" file as a dependency that I tracked down to being from your diligently compiled list here. At no fault of your own, there was a slight problem though. The board software saw this as inside the Club topic and restricted download access to only those who've joined. This is similar to how with an Open Club and it does this for file entries, but it's a step further for attachments with the issue even for Public Clubs too (as yours is).

As a workaround, I've posted a new locked topic to serve as the container to hold these. I then did a batch database edit to make all these attachments in your topic be assigned to this new one in the public forums. Also as a little side benefit, I've freed up these from your attachment quota to the @STEX Custodian account which @Tyberius06 actively manages, while keeping them as still available to download above for everyone.

Just now this is possible by guests and all registered Simtropolis users combined.

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this, it never occurred to me that people would be using any of paeng's forum attachments as dependencies given how little information we have on some of them.

I remember once Pegasus was working on a Utopian project to replace the Maxis industries with smaller, modular buildings that together could make larger facilities. The project eventually was stopped, but I remember he released as attachments a set of futuristic small buildings, corridors and green trail parks as props. I search high and low to find those props but it seems I don't have them anymore. Do you remember them? If yes, do you have them?

@Terring

I suspect these are ones you've already checked through, as I seem to recall seeing a few of the futuristic looking farms in your posted city scenes. But just in case there's anything that might be useful, I'll post a link to the PEG Utopian Series category.  Edit: Which I see @Silur has just posted before me with the link too.

For the specific items being as forum attachments, it might be how they're on the PEG Legacy Content CD that @Turnstyled kindly shared with us a few weeks ago. Just in case this might be of interest, I've added you into the PM convo so you can download this ISO file.

(And I added you too Catty in case this is useful perhaps even for your Paeng Pack project.)

[Terring 6,473]

Thanks for the replies, folks. Unfortunately the modular factories I'm looking for are not in the Legacy CD (although some of its stuff are too cool to ignore) and has never been released on PLEX-STEX-LEX, only as attachments at the Pegasus forum for testing proposes.

Hello

I downloaded a few plugins to brighten up my SimCity and I remembered a lot of great BATs. In particular those of Paeng, who share his creativity, is somewhat lacking in my opinion; anyone know if sir wants to resume someday?
In short, I come to you because one day, far away ???, I had found one of his creations on SIMPEG, which I have never found again. Maybe one of you has it right at the bottom of your plugins. He had created a floating windmill based on a lot.
I tried well but I can't seem to get it done (it's still underwater;)). So I put the link to this windmill for you. Hoping that it will revive your memories, and / or that someone will help me.

Friendly. G

I saw another section with Paeng info and posted this - 

There are a bunch of missing MTP addons on Paengs site that are not on this site, but the links on Dropbox are dead.  Do you know how those files and/or links can be updated ?

http://paeng.e-workers.de/gallery/city_journals/lots/mtp/mtp_dl-center.php

They will be eventually. Last year I managed to get mostly everything what was available on SIMPEG and Paeng's personal site as well and I narrowed mostly down what needed to be uploaded, but then I had a hard drive crash and I lost all the progress what I'd done. If I recall there were 42-ish PEGProd contents which haven't been uploaded to STEX yet, and many stuffs from Paeng, but these later ones need more love. One of the bigger issue that there were many contents from Paeng which eventually got an upload on PLEX/STEX but an older or more personal version was available on his site. Once I went through on all of those contents and managed to figure it out what was what, and when I'll do it again, it will come back so won't be that hard to reorganize them, the bigger question is time, which I don't have much lately and I'm still working on Project ZIP for LEX, which has more or less absolute priority for me currently.

[catty-cb 4,392]

Paeng passed over to me all his SC4 files when he left the SC4 community and the reason the dropbox links don't work is dropbox changed the way files links worked and as Paeng at that point no longer had any interest in the game he never updated the links, I should have copies of all his files that on his old site, they should in fact be either on the STEX or over here in this club post or possibly in the club file section.

Let me know what you are trying to locate and hopefully can point you in the right direction.

Based on the city journal picture links that was when he was using Dropbox for both images and files and unfortunately when Dropbox changed the way they formatted the links, paeng who was already having health issues made the decision that he wasn't going to go thru all his posts, etc and correct the links nor was he going to download the files from Dropbox .... we lost quite a few of his banished pictures as a result of that decision, but understandable given his ongoing health issues.
