We just suffered through a major disaster at LOF. The farm manager was playing around with a “time machine” to rapidly advance from late autumn through the winter season. It is a good concept as long as you manage to stay awake. :blushnew: The next thing we knew we were in the first day period of su...

Had all intentions of carrying on with the work on Osina, but chose Marwell yesterday. In the middle of loading 90+ bales without an auto loader and then stacking them back in the home barn. About halfway done. I'm probably going to sell 30+ or so. Holy smokes Ched! I was complaining when I picked ...

Hey Dagrump, is that a FS17 gameplay?

Yes. That is the Lone Oak Farm map with the added Skyswap mod that really brings FS17 to life. I have not been on FS19 since I installed the mod. Some of the many sky textures are just awseome.

As the morning sun rises the big John Deere 8530 is ready to go to work.

The harvest crew is nearly done with the last field of soybeans and stopped to have lunch at the Taco stand. Darn, and I am not allowed to have one. :neutralnew: https://image.giants-software.com/1/f3YXyNUU.jpg My granddaughter came home from college to help with the winter seeding. She handles that...

Oh, are you on 17? I know where to find the 19 version, didn’t know if that was the one you were using. Thought it was 19 because of how good the graphics were. Still adjusting to 19 :lol: It's worth getting a copy of 17 for this map alone it is a fantastic piece of work. It's going to be a fair wh...

Where did you get that 8030 mod from? Looking for a tractor like that I have had this quite a while in my fs17 folder so am not sure where I got it. If you search for "Fs17 JD8030SeriesFinal" you will discover numerous sites offer it. I think you can also find this same tractor on Yesmods.com for F...

The LOF is now up to 308 tillable acres and a lot of the small fields have been combined to make a larger field. Nearly done with the spring planting with one small 12 acre field waiting for the 8530 John Deere and Horsch 12 meter planter.

We have transitioned from the Hoosier Heartland farm to the Lone Oaks Farm in Oregon , US. The weather has cooperated with far more beautiful skies than the last time I visited. The fall harvest put 48,000 bushels of crop in the silos that had to have a capacity expansion with an added silo. Winter ...

We just finished the harvest at Hoosier Heartland farms putting over 82,000 bushels of crops in our silo complex in wait of better prices. The seeding of winter wheat and barley is nearly complete. When that is finished I am selling my interest in Hoosier Heartland and returning to a beautiful farm ...

Some great pictures there

Thank you...

Those screenshots are so good they could pass as real farming images. You are surely gifted and thank you for sharing your work with us mere mortals.

Wow! I am on my way back to FS17 Lone Oak.

Thank You Bullet Bill!

The harvest here at the Hoosier Heartland farm was bountiful this year. We put up over 67,000 bu of various grains and expanded from 367 tillable acres to 428. Just today we trucked our oats,barley and wheat to the Cargill mills and recorded $1,067,079 in harvest sales. The great thing is there is s...

Crazof, Thank you for the correction, I did state it wrong for the black smoke. But the primary purpose of my original post was discussion of a lot of tractor mods that are displaying a constant stream of black smoke are distracting from the quality of the mod in my opinion. Am I the only one that f...

I am glad to hear from folks doing the real duty today as my farming life was back in the day when we were using Oliver 60's and 70's and CaseIH was known as Farmall H's and M's along with a few Allis Chalmers WD's and they were all gas engines. So my diesel experience on farm equipment is limited. ...
