How do i get mods in FS 22

Post by 02sam »

Hi when i played FS19 to get mods on the title screen i just clicked on mods, then searched for the mod i wanted then install and then when the save game loaded i could use the mod. but i am not able to do that in FS22

On the title screen o click on download contents but only a very few shows up and the search just does not work and if i do find a mod i want and the game loads i am not able to see or place the mod

Advice please

At the moment there are 40+ mods, only two pages worth on the website modhub, so when you search then mod you are looking for just might not be there, (yet?).

There's also the "Show crossplay mods only" toggle, which I think hides PC only mods, so if you are on console you will see fewer mods.

Since the location of the FarmingSimulator2022 folder that contains the mods folder depends on the Version of the game and the OS that is used it would be better to direct people to check out the following post instead of trying to give them the path: viewtopic.php?f=987&t=174977

You can download them also inside the game.. When in the menu go to MODS and there you can download them.

Also to anyone unaware, you can change the mod folder location so it isn't taking up space on your OS partition.
Just go into gameSettings.xml and change "<modsDirectoryOverride active="false" directory="default folder"/>" to "<modsDirectoryOverride active="true" directory="folder of your desire"/>.

I'm unclear what you mean by "see them to place them".
Have you selected the mods you want active for that savegame, at the selection screen that appears when you open or create a savegame?

Thank you for all the reply's it has helped me a lot
I understand there are not as many mod for FS22 as there were for FS19, i see reviews for mods for FS22 but when i search for them in the downloads in the title screen i am not able to find what i am looking for is that the right place to look for mods?

DirectCedar what i mean when i went into the build mode i could not see the mod i had installed so i could place them on the map, (Say the muiltifruit silo) but i see there and a lot of options in the build mode i just have to fine the right place to look

I have seen review for the store delivery but i am not able to fine it so is it out yet please

Regards to you all

There are mods that are not available on modhub and have to be downloaded from 3rd party websites.
