Colossus Addon Mod - Nex-gen Energy Operating System (N Colossus Addon Mod - Nex-gen Energy Operating System (NEON) NEW

Colossus Addon Mod - Nex-gen Energy Operating System (NEON) is the mod that revolutionizes energy gameplay by introducing mechanics that simulate the management of a power grid. Originally created as a spin-off of AMPS (Allied Municipal Power of Simtropolis), the mod underwent a code overhaul to incorporate new features using Mod DLLs and a reorganization of the power plants

The mod was developed by the various members of the CAM Team who over time have brought modifications to improve this mod

Please note that this pack may receive updates in the near future. Do not redistribute without asking first, mostly as doing so would complicate efforts to properly maintain, update, and provide technical support for the pack.

WARNING: From version 2.5 onward Colossus Addon Mod works only with the digital version (1.1.641) of SimCity 4 (Microsfot Windows and Linux only). If you run CAM 2.5 or later on systems other than those listed, the mod may malfunction and no support is provided.

Installation

This package is a simple .zip file. Just extract the a_CAM folder to your My DocumentsSimCity 4Plugins directory (or equivalent, if you have a custom Plugins folder location).

It is highly recommended to run the cleanitol with the installer and remove any previous versions from your plugins.
Optionally in the ~Documents folder in the main ZIP you can find a collective/master and by using either the newer nos.17's SC4 Cleanitol or the older BSC Cleanitol tool you can search and remove old and outdated versions of these files.
