I made a small pond in a harvested field on Elmcreek. It took a couple of tries. But the end result is pretty good, because, well, it’s pretty intuitive to use. As instructed, dug a hole, smoothed it out. Planted plants and bushes, flowers and little trees and painted the bottom of the depression with mud texture. Selected the big pond icon. I had to get closer to the hole than I was, at first, but once I figured that out, presto! Pond.

Thank you for this mod, LMoonlight. It’s going to make the maps like No Man’s Land and others much more satisfying.

Check if you are on version 1.5 (top left main menu) Click L3 (left stick) couple times in modhub to switch between all mods.

I'm not on 1.5, although is says I'm on the latest version. L3 is not helping. Hmmm

The L3 key switches between the Crossplay and Top Mods views in the ModHub.
But why they get the wrong version number displayed is really strange

According to my update history I should be on 1.5...so I don't know

If anything seems strange on my PS4, I restart the whole system. Most of the time, everything works again.
Have you already tested a restart?

On xBox, it’s all the way to the right under “Landscape” then “Other.” It might depend on what other mods you have … might put it in the middle. I don’t know on PS, though.

Yeah, I da know. I've done everything, Maybe it's just a glitch.

All of the sudden FS22 decides to update, so now I have the ponds. now only if the landscaping tools were easier to use.

Hooray, Sixx. Mine had updated before I started up today. It works well. I’m looking forward to playing with rivers tomorrow. I’m using No Man’s Land as a playground.

I'm on Goldcrest, but I'm turning off autosave until I get the technique down.

Oh that's good to read that the update worked

I agree with you that the Lanschafts tool takes some getting used to. That's why I added the video in addition to my photo gallery at the end. I thought that maybe it will be easier to use the water areas.

I agree about the “getting used to.” Remember, I’m the one who flooded the whole farm with all the equipment inside! and, I hadn’t saved and had auto save on! I had to figure it out or start over. Lack of preparedness!

I managed to make a decent pond, but I have no idea how to post pics on this site.
