BLP-NDEX Boston Central Artery-Tunnel (Big Dig)

This SC4 Devotion LEX Legacy Pack features the complete set of Boston Central Artery-Tunnel (Big Dig) by Blahdy, including Props and Lots, which had been available on the Lot Exchange (LEX) at SC4 Devotion. 

This mod has partial support for Left Hand Drive (LHD). Only the Ground Maxis Highway ramp is not compatible with Left Hand Drive (LHD) and cannot have support because of how the prop was rendered

It includes the contents of 2 previously separate downloads.
After battling a number of technical issues, software incompatibility ultimately shuttered the LEX (at least in its familiar form from 2007 onward) in June 2023, and this package is designed to collect these dependencies in an easy-to-use form, allowing users to install them all in one go, or carefully select exactly which packs they wish to install.

Please note that this pack is expected to 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.

INSTALLATION:

This package is a simple .zip file.

Copy/extract the Blahdy parent folders into your plugins (or equivalent, if you have a custom Plugins folder location). If you extracted the ~Documents folder into your plugins, too, it's highly recommended to keep it, but move it out of the Plugins folder.

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and by using either the newer nos.17's SC4 Cleanitol or the older BSC Cleanitol tool you can search and remove old and outdated versions of these files.

And possibly others who may not have been mentioned. If your name has been forgotten or you're not on the list, then drop us a line, as it has been difficult to keep track of anyone/everyone that may of helped somewhere along the lines.

And to the community itself, we would also like to thank you for your support, making mods such as this possible too. We're still at it after 20 years thanks to you!

And last but not least, a thanks for the Maxis individuals too, for the [paid] work that they did. ;-)
