[Nutterz1ggy]

Watch mrsealy 2 videos on utube.

ive been going through his videos but cant seem to pin point that bit, thanks

I owe an apology to AlienJim I think- I found and have been reading some of the mod issues and there seems to be history with a particular trailer lagging and/or crashing games.

What I thought was an in game trailer, was actually a mod that I was using and the lagging/crashing symptoms could well be the trailer and not sussex farm as previously thought.

I've been using the Boss Meyer 9140 RT. Will test next time I'm on using another trailer and see if I can get it to play up. I don't know for sure but think it's more than likely the trailer rather than the map. If that is the case, AlienJim I owe you a beer !

You know what, I downloaded that trailer just for that map, and it’s was forever lagging and worstly crashing causing me to redo tons of farming, and I couldn’t pin point which mod was doing it. Thankfully I’ve deleted that mod, and I’m now experiencing no lag whatsoever. God send.

if the new update comes out for the map I won't bee updating it. (but he did add a lot of good stuff) BUT.. because of all the other good stuff is being removed. I like the map the way it is now. 220 hours on it with not 1 problem. love the plane and flying ducks. the boat, waterfall. etc. etc.

I agree lefe1, if them things listed are removed, I won't be updating either, love the map the way it is now.

Same...I won't be updating.

[TallPaul003]

I'm in two minds- I have minor issues with the map as it is (console) but not enough to warrant big changes to the overall feel of the map. I know you can't please everyone... !

Will wait until I can see what it's like on youtube and decide- will current saves work with the update seeing as they're quite major changes ?

Alien Jim's FS17 Mods No new save game needed but as always no guarantees.

[BigNRichlll]

I'll try it out as I have nothing to lose, I abandoned my savegame after the last update spawned trees everywhere. I actually like most of the potential changes, so maybe it will be playable again..

[CombineBert]

Agreed, I will not be updating, the soul of this map will die for me.

[Addictedtofs]

I'm glad the plane is gone, but going with it is everything else that made this map fun. I don't think I'll be going back.

[Smith Modding]

I really like the stuff that makes the map feel alive. I won't be updating

[RODHA]

I installed the new version and it seems really good in terms of fps stability. However, I can't say for sure if that is because of the new version or because of the fact that I also switched to a PS4 Pro in the mean time.

The extensive amount of functionality in Sussex is a really different approach to map making. At least for consoles. And I'm seriously thankful to Alien Jim for that. Like BsM, he managed to bring things to consoles that were thought to be impossible up to this point. Just an amazing job

I will dive deep into Sussex this time no matter what. Previous version had some issues so I left it just over 80 hrs. But now I think I can spend a couple of hundreds of hours.

Besides, thank you @lefe for your detailed post up there. I was looking for that information and found it very easily thanks to your very helpful sharings as always

[RODHA]

Btw, how do you take the helicopter ride? I managed to find the tirgger for take off but I can't stay in the helicopter.

Open the cargo doors, trigger the take of and run into the cargo hold

[RODHA]

^^ Seriously? So, thats why Jim said only up for the ride. You can't control it to fly around?
