Top 3 mods you can't play without...

Post by GrimHuffer »

Hey all,

Just curious, if you play with mods and were limited to just 3 of them (what torture!) which ones would they be?

BTW, thank you to everyone who releases their hard work for free (that includes Giants as they have quite a few free mods), you really do make the FS series a joy to play. *thumbsup*

For me:

1) GPS (Guidance Steering) by Wopster

2) Filltype Mass Adjustments (Realistic Weights) by modelleicher

3) Seasons by Realismus Modding

I use 33 (currently) mods in total and I tend to be very strict about what I use in game. The majority of what I use are small edits that bring utility or quality of life, a few are buildings or decorations. All are essential for me to but without those three above I probably wouldn't play FS nearly as much.

3 is simply not possible (for me)
And if you are not playing on Ravenport or Felsbrunn, the mod map is also a mod, so you would have only 2 remaining...

Yeah, not easy to pick just the three :lol:

Good to see GPS getting mentioned, I would have a hard time playing without it. I do hope Wopster finds the time to work on a version for FS22, his efforts are surely appreciated (and it seems not just by me).

Seasons
NML Placeables Pack
Pack Of Traces

No matter the map, these are my go to mods. I can find different equipment to match the region I'm in, I can find different maps, but i always use these. The right placeables can make even the most bland and basic maps good.

Nice choice, whilst I'm not playing with NML Placables on this map, it has a great selection of stuff you can't find/get anywhere else. Definite thumbs up from me.

Pack Of Traces, I had never heard of it until you brought it up but I'm so glad you did! I had a quick play around with it of a mod testing map I use and it will definitely be making its way onto my mod list. Thanks for the introduction *thumbsup*

Mine is somewhat of a wish list (since I'm on console), and in fact I do play without it, because I can't get it, but it affects literally every game/map I play on.

1 - no collisions/placement /not sure what it's exactly called. (this is the only one I don't have access too.
2 - cultivator being used as plows mod. (once again forget what it's called)
3 - any single one of the old/cheap low horsepower tractor mods. (most recently it could be the White tractors, or the old 2wd john deere) literally any one that is sub $40,000 so I can realistically start a small farm from scratch.

I love to start a unstarted map and place my own stuff down and change the fields up. Without these mods every map I play on wouldn't work for me. And the placement of buildings is ALWAYS a constant battle. So I play without the placement mod but I sure hate how I don't have it.
