Re: Sowing Contract Issue
Sowing potatoes is really expensive if you have to use seed and is time consuming too - you've learned the hard way to avoid such contracts (don't worry, we've all been there!). If I do contracts I typically stick to fertilising and harvesting ('regular' crops), maybe some cultivating. Harvesting co...

Re: So long to No Man’s Land
Hey, its not easy to draw a straight line in FS with the tools Giants gives us!! NML isn't for me either to be honest, I like a farm to look like a farm so play maps where they are already put in place by the map builder. I don't mind a bit of adding placeables but would rather it was mostly done fo...

Re: Greenhouse pallets have disappeared
Perhaps they were stolen then 😂. After further thought there is a chance it’s down to a contract mistake. I did two contracts with one set of equipment but did the wrong one first and switched the game off with a complete contract which disappeared when I next played the game. My greenhouses are in...

Re: GAME CRASHING
No..it's called "boost mode" it enhances older games graphics a bit but once I disabled it my system ran a lot smoother and yes autumn is brutal on calmsden....I had to use the tree devourer to remove about half of the deco trees and now it runs great Gotcha, I wasn't sure because they're...

Re: Greenhouse pallets have disappeared
I think Calmsden farm might be in a high crime area - I had a tractor disappear from there. I've never had any pallets disappear tho so maybe it was down to the mod removal? Out of interest, how does Calmsden run on PS5? PS4 Pro struggles with all the trees particularly in Autumn - gets very noisy a...

Re: On object rotation in build mode - workaround for the base game "functionality"
I'll have to try this, thanks for the post! I placed a bunch of greenhouses which I had perfectly spaced and thought I had perfectly angled but discovered later were actually a bit off. I only ever seem to be able to rotate things to be a few degrees over or under lining up to something else on the ...

Re: GAME CRASHING
Also make sure your boost mode is turned off (in playstation settings) Are you talking about SuperSampling mode? I think I have that turned off as it made my PS4 sound like an F16 at take-off. Mind you it sounds like that now on Calmsden especially in Autumn. Opened it up hoping to find it caked in...

Re: What tractor can with the Walkabout trailer in its two models
There was an awesome Fendt mod for FS19 (PC) that I used to pull a full MotherBin of Sugar Cane from the field to the Sugar Mill with. Sounded amazing too, I really miss that tractor.

Re: Forestry is brutal
Never been much of a fan of forestry in FS and haven't done any since 19 on PC or 17 on console (I moved back to console with 19 and now 22). Having had the experience of forestry on PC with strength mods etc and also having played Lumberjack Dynasty where processes are simplified I've had no inclin...

Re: Why so expensive???
Repainting is entirely optional. It can be annoying how quickly it degrades and some equipment looks total cr@p after a short while but these are working tools - they wouldn't look pristine after a load of work in the field and respray costs are damned expensive irl. Repair costs are a bit on the hi...

Re: GAME CRASHING
Not sure if I have this mod installed but I get a lot of crashes on Calmsden on my PS4 Pro so I'll check it out, thanks.

Re: Drying hay takes some time...
I think having Seasons in 22 is a whole lot better than vanilla FS was in the past but Giants have played very safe with the feature depth as compared to the mod for 17 & 19. For a lot of more casual players (possibly the majority of the userbase?) its probably as involved as they want it for st...

Re: Equipment Maintenance: Ridiculous and Inscrutable
I don't have a problem with the maintenance, its probably Giants' best implementation of it so far but repainting costs and how quickly it needs doing is a nuisance. I've repainted one implement for the achievement but have no inclination to use the feature again. Look on the bright side - there are...

Re: Restore the initial ground state on FS22 console?
When you say the paint function only goes so far are you referring to the issue of not being able to landscape right to the boundaries of a map? I have this problem on Calmsden - I can plow right to the edge but cannot landscape the same area - very frustrating not having a roller to edge fields any...

It's used by Gia...
