Gates a still tight, but I fit through my semi with Wilson trailer and a DB 60 yesterday. Def better then before 😉
Which gate or gates in particular, or just leave them for a challenge?

For my part, you could leave em. Makes it a little bit more realistic, old small farm grew by the time...

Will this update add back any trees I already cut down? Because I have had that problem with other maps when it was updated and had to re cut trees out of fields I already created and had cut trees in.

10-4 on the train jump. Figures it was best to say something before next update. I have the same issue with Tranceformer restarting trying to narrow down a start spot. But I feel like the white fence area is just built around needing to be built up. This map is different in that I know I am going to be here for some time and I need to start small....house and small grain bin and start building. I think I'm suffering from getting everything I've ever wanted but not knowing what I want to do haha

I just wanted to show how I personalized my main farm. It will evolve from here as you will notice, that it already has in pic 1 and 3 with a “drive around” added next to the pit.

I have added a cheap little horse pen to the left side here by the tree, as horses are needed for me to enjoy this map to it’s full potential.

I’m loving Siid’s 8960 on this map. It’s nice and cheap for the HP.

As play progresses I will begin “tearing down” some of the barns and build new storage barns and add a workshop building from say MNMillenial or something comparable.

I will show pic’s of the other farm site later. I added a cattle pen over there, and will decide as I play how i would like to build that up. I may move the workshop over there at some point. Only time will tell.

I may go seasons. But to be honest, i like to go at my own slow pace. I turn off growth stages until I’m ready to proceed. Sometimes i’ll have it turned off for 10+ in game days.

As far as how to start off....slow for me. I took out a $250,000 operation loan, to get needed equipment. And now in the midst of planting and haying, I’m training horses. So that pays 50 grand per horse, every 10 days.

@chedly_farms
The farm looks awesome, l love the ground texture work. That's probably hardest thing to make realistic. How do you like the new deco Foliage with Landscape tool?

Seasons Geo: Griffin Indiana 19 is now available for download on the Modhub. The only thing I don't like about it is trees all have the spring texture when you start.
There are 12 periods with Seasons, 1st period is (March 1st). I'm looking out side now and no Green trees LOL
I cant do anything about that as its related to LAT setting and can't change that as it would not be a real GEO

To Console Players, Is the placeable light set on Modhub available for you?
I'm having hard time making lights turn on when attached to the modWorkshop. I may abandon it till down the road.

To Console Players, What are the slot count numbers for New Farmer and Start from scratch?

Yea that's what I've done in past Chedly. Turn off growth and mimic stages of the year. Problem is eventually I know I will want seasons. Plus I've been told it's not worth trying to mimic beef cattle operation without seasons. Probably my only biggest issue with seasons is the small massey baler the bales disappear with seasons on.

Good to know about the Massey Ferguson baler. I guess that’s the nail in the coffin for me and seasons.

Hello! New to the forum and this may post twice sorry in advance... Great Map i areally appreciate the time and effort that went into this for all to enjoy. Really like the google earth overlay and layout! I have an issue that occured after the update on this map that i am not sure if it is related to the map or FS19 settings. My brother and I had a multiplayer farm going on Griffin and when we got on after the update all the equipment was in my farm as the admin. He is a farm manager on his own farm but the save game we had started had this equipment issue yesterday it was not doing this previously. He can buy equipment just fine but if he has to reset or if we log off and return the equipment is back in my admin farm. We are playing by trying to keep things seperate it makes it fun this way to have 2 farms going on one map to try and keep pace with eachother! Not sure if anyone else has this issue or if we messed up a setting somewhere. Any help would be great. Thank you!
Again sorry if this posts twice...
