About this mod Machine translation
Mod for the game "Software Company". This adds computer hardware.
Many new hardware components have been added to Software Inc., including "Motherboard", "Processor", "Storage", "Chassis", "Graphics Card" and "Computer" (coming soon!); over 15,000 combinations in total!
feature
The motherboard required an investment of time and resources, as well as a new specialized physical design for staff! However, everyone needed a motherboard to have a computer, so it was a whole new market of customers. Contests are iterative if possible and will continue to be released with "not that much different" versions; just like real life!
It is also possible to create processors that make computers think. Sometimes relying on functionality exposed by the motherboard. At any given time, some other component in the computer may also require some of the processor's capabilities, and customers typically don't buy the processor themselves (which gives you a reason to release these types of InHouse releases.)
Graphics cards, unlocked with the introduction of PCI slots on your motherboard in 1992; allow you to offload the processing work of 3D graphics onto a dedicated chip. These are fantasies that have a bigger market than computers themselves. Because customers may want to install two or three on their computer.
The storage needed to actually store data onto your computer; and provide various balances of stability, usability, and innovative features that you can work towards. Hard drives can also be purchased by individuals independent of purchasing a computer, but rarely.
Computers can be built from parts created by you or your competitors without having to make money. Unless you require users to purchase their own motherboard and processor along with it. The dependency is not yet straightforward, but selling computers* with their own parts would increase motherboard and processor sales. *

A mod for the game "Software Inc." which adds Computer Hardware.
Adds many new hardware components to Software Inc. including "Motherboard", "Processor", "Storage", "Case", "Graphics Card" and "Computer" (more to come soon!); with over 15,000 total combinations!
Features
Motherboards require an investment in time and resources, as well as a new specialization Physical Design for your employees! However, everyone needs a Motherboard to have a Computer, so it's an entirely new market of customers; if you can handle it. The competition is very iterative, and will continue releasing "not so very different" versions; just like real life!
Processors required to make a Computer think, can also be created; and sometimes rely on features exposed by the Motherboard. Some other components in a Computer may require certain features from the Processor as well at any given time, and customers do not generally buy Processors themselves (giving you a reason to make InHouse releases of these types.)
Graphics Cards, unlocked in 1992 with the introduction of the PCI Slot on your Motherboard; allow you to offload the processing of 3D Graphics onto a dedicated chip. These are all the rave, and have a larger market than computers themselves; as customers might want to install two or three in their computers.
Storage, required to actually place data on a computer; and coming in a variety of balanced Stability, Usability and Innovative features that you can work towards. Hard Drives can be purchased by individuals separate of a Computer purchase as well, but rarely.
Computers can be assembled out of parts either you or your competitors create, and don't necessarily make all the money; unless you're asking users to purchase your own Motherboard and Processor along with it. The dependencies are not straight-forward yet, but selling a Computer with your own parts *will increase your Motherboard and Processor sales.*

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
