I saw that. It looks pretty cool, but I don't have much trouble loading them on the bale trailer without it. To be honest I'm more interested in the semi truck and trailer combo :).

I tested one. Good luck trying to move that from your farm to the sheep area. I requires a heavy duty tractor to move it.

Instead, look at the trailer I use, which I mentioned in the Extreme Sheep Farming thread. It's a trailer with a rail that actually pulls the pallet from the forks. Also, it's longer than the blue trailer, so putting 10 pallets on does not require micro-precision.

Looks good, I'll have to try it. I also want to get the semi truck and trailer unit as well.

I can fix that camera issue - its actually quite simple to do, just need to add in a line that most people converting don't put in.

Ok, so I finally got around to downloading this mod, what a PIA. Has any one used this? I bought the big Case tractor you can pull it but you can't steer because the front tires come off the ground. Is there a special way to move this thing?

Take a look in the Extreme sheep farming topic. I posted a link to the mod, but you need to make some changes for it to work in FS2013

You better take the trailer like Cornetplayer suggested!

Hmmm...I used the mod trailer as is without having to change anything therein.

Get it here


You will have to add in the <storeItem> section of modDesc.xml:
<machineType>misc</machineType>
<dailyUpkeep>50</dailyUpkeep>

Ok, after downloading and figuring out how to edit the modDesc.xml file, I tested out the trailer and I found it more of a pain than other trailers. I think I'll just go back to the the regular blue trailer. Thanks for all the help, at least I now know how to edit that file.
