With the help of Dwane Campbell I have constructed a most perfect 16x16x16x16 magic hypercube. Each 1/4 row/column/pillar/post gives 1/4 of the magic sum and each 1/2 diagonal in the levels gives 1/2 of the magic sum. The 16x16x16x16 magic cube is 2x2 compact in all 3 directions.
I used 4 grids with the numbers 1 up to 16 in it to construct a most perfect 16x16x16x16 magic cube.
See below the structure of the first grid of the 16x16x16x16 magic cube:

Dwane Campbell constructed a 16x16x16x16 magic cube which is Nasik and each 1/4 row/column/diagonal (in the levels) and 1/4 pillar/post/space diagonal gives 1/4 of the magic sum. This 16x16x16x16 magic cube is not 2x2 compact. See an analysis of Dwane Campell's 16x16x16x16 magic cube in the download below.
