Skidloader Steering still broken after 12 years?

I'm sure this has been brought up many times, but I feel it deserves it's own thread. Are there any plans to fix the game engine's handling of 0-turn vehicles? I understand that for crawler tractors, the gas/brake/steering wheel model works fine, but there are a couple of nuances skid steer loaders ...

Re: GAME CONTROLLER (Wheel + Joystick) ... binding tips!

Really worth getting dual joysticks. You can always buy just one, and then save up for a 2nd (I bought 2 used Saitek Cyborg EVOs many years apart) but get something ambidextrous and with a hat switch, even if you're starting with just one joystick. You'll want to get a 2nd one for your other hand ev...

Re: [FarmCon20]Tickets now available + Infos

That's exciting! Does this mean Deutz-Fahr equipment will be coming back to the game? (Let's be honest, they're basically not anymore, it's what, 2 or 3 tractors?) Will be really excited to see more lime green back in the game!

Re: What do ya guys think of the dlc?

I feel like bog crops would require more modification to the base game than would be in the scope of a DLC, but with the landscaping options in FS now, maybe it would be feasible to add crops like Rice and Cranberries to an upcoming version. I see a lot of reluctance for simulation games to touch an...

Re: What steering wheel are people using

Hi, sorry to hear about your heavy equipment wheels. I use a Logitech G29 and 2 Saitek Cyborg Evos for telehandlers/logging etc. I manually set steering centering to 5% (have to type it in in logitech gaming software) and that feels about right to easily feed the wheel but still find center. Honestl...

Re: Just switched from 17 to 19, disappointed, anyone else had a similar feeling?

The sole reason I don't go back to 17 very much over 19 is that controls can be (mostly) configured in-game in 19. I say mostly because the game periodically resets my steering wheel to 14% dead-zone and I have to waste 5 minutes loading the game again after I go out to change it to 0 one click at a...

Re: Just switched from 17 to 19, disappointed, anyone else had a similar feeling?

I'm there, playing without gearbox and throttle responsive hydraulics from 17 is just a slap in the face when Giants promised native gear support early on. On top of that, Skidloaders still use the same wonky "steering" system that's been in place since Demolition Company. It's really disa...

Re: triple screen support in FS 19?

Tripple monitor seems to work with Eyefinity on Radeon cards (RX580) The scaling for some of the UI is wonkey but it does work... It seems FS19 will only offer you wider aspect ratios if it sees the full width as a single monitor.

You are amazing, it works. If it's not too much to ask, what tipped you off?

Re: Server keeps stuck at synchronizing

Oh wow, that was quick. Thank you. I'll give it a try. The game loads fine with all mods disabled, I'll try putting some back and deleting that one.

Re: Server keeps stuck at synchronizing

Having the same issue, the terminal shows that I'm already logged in from my playing account immediately when I launch the server? Loads and syncs to 29% and sits. When I give up and hit ESC. instead of leaving it spawns me under the map looking up at foliage and I have to Alt+F4 Sample of log below...

Two things I've been really hoping to see are: --A dump/tipper truck, preferably something cab-over like the old kamaz, or that fuso-looking AI truck... --4 in 1 bucket (clamshell grab, bucket, box blade, dozer) I've been working on a model of a generic one to put in game but I don't have the knowle...

Re: "Toggle lights" not working on PC

Thank you; allowing inputBinding.xml to regenerate has solved the issue. Back to the grind of setting up controls again :P At least most of it can be done in game now!

Re: Hydrualic force on Log fork

I've noticed this myself, and I think another part of this issue is that Giants hasn't programmed hydraulics to "stall" correctly. A hydraulic part that is moving should force it's way through most things (log should be forced either in or out, not have the log grab stall because it's touc...
