There's plenty of savegames there. I only have 1 meadowgrove savegame at the moment until another map comes out. 👍

To be honest mate I get more fun out of creating my farms than playing them , which is why my maps typically have about 30-40 hours of use, Wola had nearly 30 hours on it before I even harvested my first crop !

That sounds fair enough. I had multiple saves, but I got stuck to meadowgrove, so I'll swap with another map when it comes out.

Over at Woodshire Farm we got the 14 out on a drilling contract
Image

And we've had a change in the baled silage setup, were keeping the old Krone big-pac for the hay & straw but to speed up the process we'vegone for the Kuhn FBP 3135 so we've sold the labourious square bale wrapper & a few other seldom used machines to accommodate the remaining balance , even bought some new wider boots for the 12, she may be due a respray too at some point

Yeah, I got my Xbox to connect to the smart glass thing, so now I can take clear pictures from my atari, as Iwan calls it. 😅🤣😅🤣
And speaking of atari image's, If I was to do a farm blog {like humbes one} on meadowgrove, would anyone be interested.
I'd have a look at least. I like to see what others are doing with the game to get suggestions of how to alter my own game. Details as to what mods they are using, what their goals with the game is, what parts they are focusing on and why they are doing what they are doing. Some atmosphere and pictures helps keep interest. In text format I can quickly scan through to see if there's interesting bits there. I'm not going to waste hours on youtube to watch for potentially interesting stuff.

Based on view counts (visible in desktop version of forum), there are at least some people that looks at the farm blogs that are there. Probably some more than the people actually commenting in them, and I've only seen positive comments to date. Probably a limited audience, but I'd write about my game to record details to try and learn about the game anyhow, so thought I'd post it public, and when doing so, fleshing it out a bit with pictures and a backstory to try and keep it possibly interesting.

Oh, thanks humbe. Yeah I'm of the same opinion as you, what is he point of watching something if it isn't interesting. I absolutely love your farm blog on no man's land, so I thought I'd do a meadowgrove one. I'll have a look at it and see how I go.

Now that's a rake. I used to use that on welker farms for windowing 8 rows into one, which made the baler sit up and take notice. Barrcott do you use the landscape tool to put a small hill behind the round bale so it doesn't roll away?

Isn't there a horse farm inbuilt rody12. Maybe I'm thinking of Pacific Northwest. 🤔
I never played on green River, is it any good?

You could expand a paddock just off the main area. Take up some field spot. Or cut down a bunch of trees by the silos and place one down.
I will check this out! I was looking for a location not to close to the main farm. I like the locations to be separate from one another, but maybe this works as well

Just out of interest, i was thinking of opening up a FB page very similar to this topic, we got some great pics n story's here & would be great if we could just click 'like' on them, haven't seen a fb page dedicated to this sort of topic what you reckon ?
