Plow to Cultivator ? ? ?

[HC1Gunner]

There are several of these mods out there, that started out as a Horsch Tiger10LT/15LT "cultivator", and was used to create the 27LT (FS15), or Tiger 26LT for FS17.

I want 20+ meter cultivator to use, I was able to find a couple that were made for FS15, and I used GE to convert them, which GE did without errors reported on its end. They showed up on the mod page in-game, but will not complete purchase from the store, they just sit there, non-stop trying to complete, and you have to Esc to back out.

Questions:

1. I cleared my log file, looked for errors, but nothing really popped out at me (little knowledge), it just showed both mods loading successfully.

2. What makes a plow a plow, or a cultivator. Since all these mods are actually cultivators converted to plows. I'm wanting to know what it would take to convert the plow/cultivator back to a regular cultivator?
A. Is this done in GE
B. Is done with just lines of code in its xml file?

Can't help you with the store purchasing piece (still trying to figure that one out myself on a few mods)

For 2, drawing on memory as it has been a while since I've tweaked anything like this, in the item's xml (not the moddesc), there is a section for "specializations", I believe "plow" and "cultivator" are distinctive specializations, so look for any instance of the word "plow" (or something similar). I know there is a full list of specializations available on GDNet, which may help you further

I'm going to look at the xml file closer, but I tried this on one Horsch cultivator that was converted to a plough/plow, I did a search, and every single line that had plow in it, I change it to cultivator, but when I got into the game, it still worked as plow.
Does the specialization tag pull from a ula, and that determines what the implement creates as a ground texture?

I came across this, but hte link to Giant's GDN did not work, I did a search for specializations on GDN, ton of hits but no definitive list.

Have you also searched for

plough

And such ones?
And see in the xml from a ls17 giants plow and cultivator and search the differences

I searched for both plough/plow

I have had success turning a cultivator into a plow with the XML, but not the other way around. I haven't got a clue about the i3d though.

i made the horsch terrano 4fx from cultivator to plough for myself, here is the xml from:

horschTerrano4FX.xml

(7.14 KiB) Downloaded 247 times

i only changed in the xml the cultivator or cultivators in plough or plows,
those are the lines:

Code: Select all

<vehicle type="plough">
<function>$l10n_function_plough</function>
        <category>plows</category>
        <fieldJob sizeCategory="2" typeCategory="plough"/>
    <typeDesc>$l10n_typeDesc_plough</typeDesc>
        <workArea startIndex="0>5|0" widthIndex="0>5|1" heightIndex="0>5|2" refNodeIndex="0" type="plough" chargeValue="1" foldMinLimit="0" foldMaxLimit="0.1"/>

if you compare them with the original file you can see what you must change in your plows th have a cultivator
