Yea, that will take some time. Not convenient, but doable

Re: What hardware you use to play FS22?
Why would you think you would need to do anything other than play on pc?
Re: What hardware you use to play FS22?
I understand a PC is more configurable. I also understand that those configurations depend on the hardware installed, and the comfort level for troubleshooting issues that may come from tweaking your system to be able to go beyond the minimum requirements.Mr_Tony_Sm wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 10:07 pmOn PC I can turn the graphics settings up far beyond what the game allows in the settings menu, and I can replace textures, not just add mods. PC's also allow the use of filtering, either with geforce experience or reshade. With Reshade I can add raytracing to FS22. It's like a whole different game. Real immersion comes from large maps 16X up to 64X Then you don't feel the sandbox as much.FBtheSQL wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 7:04 pmAs far as I'm concerned, PC is only really required if you want to play with scripted mods or brands that don't make it to console, or if you need a gazillion bales. I'm not really interested in the name on a machine, so I'm happy either way.mydixiewrecked wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 5:15 pm Good deal. I always feel fully on board with PC and then I read unclerico and some others talk about the growing pains and bad mods and tracking them down. It's like when my wife would ask if I could change a baby. I say yea, but then start smelling the lol
As for the bad mods, they only impact players that are not satisfied with the hundreds available on the modhub, and choose to risk external sites.
My comment was to he who's dixie is wrecked, as he is interested in beginning his PC transformation.

If you're using your mobile data, you will want to watch those GB. If you go over your limit, it could get costly quick.mydixiewrecked wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 12:49 amSo how big are those files? It seems to be the trend as I heard they have discless ps5 consoles, or will soon? My concerns is how big are those files and my internet. My only option is t mobile hotspot .UncleRico wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 11:51 pm
They are still available but they’re really not a common anymore. Most people use a hosting service like steam. That’s basically like a pc version of the PlayStation store and PlayStation home screen. You can also direct download from giants as well if you like which I do still for farm sim.

I have unlimited data on my phone, but it does slow down after 50 GB. I think. Now we use one of them Wi-Fi hotspots. That's unlimited 5G service for $50 a month through T-Mobile.FBtheSQL wrote: ↑Tue Mar 05, 2024 11:49 amIf you're using your mobile data, you will want to watch those GB.

Re: What hardware you use to play FS22?
PS5 is still pretty much best suited for this.!

Re: What hardware you use to play FS22?
PC is the way to go, PS5 will never come even close to this. No offence to console users. But, until you see what is actually possible on PC... you have no idea. Don't forget to open up the images to full screen to see the details pop This is the game engine driven hard, no Reshade usage. Map (Gnadenthal) has Relight baked in. This was achieved with game.xml tweaks, and nvinspector tweaks.
Re: What hardware you use to play FS22?
It funny when PC owners think Console owners don't have a clue about computers by saying things like "until you see what is actually possible on PC... you have no idea".
Yes, we know the right PC has more possible configurations, as long as you feel like digging into the game files and tweaking them.
I'm only guessing, but I suspect most non-console players are using laptops, which surprisingly isn't a polling choice in this thread.
Again, I'm guessing, Series s/x and PS5 are on par with most laptops, and probably most PCs being used to play FS22.
The average player isn't likely to overclock a gaming PC and dig into game files to squeeze out tweaks that weren't meant to be.

Re: What hardware you use to play FS22?
It would be interesting ( a bit anyway) how many PC players are on laptops and how many on Desktops "gaming rigs" - I use both, or rather I use the lapotp when I'm away.FBtheSQL wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2024 9:02 pm It funny when PC owners think Console owners don't have a clue about computers by saying things like "until you see what is actually possible on PC... you have no idea".

But to me the big thing about PC isn't being able to squeeze the performance, it's the script mods and -- yes -- the ability to dig into game files. And to backup my games myslef where I can find them ... that sort of thing.

I agree the single most important benefit PC players have is the use of scripted mods. Second is likely the ability to swap out hardware without needing a whole new machine. The second one might not easily apply to laptops.

Re: What hardware you use to play FS22?
I don't know how/why I didn't put this first but the single most important thing about being on PC is GIANTS Editor - mostly for just tweaking those bits of a map that are just in the way or could be better rotated a bit.FBtheSQL wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 3:01 pmI would also like to know the PC/Laptop ratio, although I won't be creating a pollblue_painted wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 2:40 pmIt would be interesting ( a bit anyway) how many PC players are on laptops and how many on Desktops "gaming rigs" - I use both, or rather I use the lapotp when I'm away.FBtheSQL wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2024 9:02 pm It funny when PC owners think Console owners don't have a clue about computers by saying things like "until you see what is actually possible on PC... you have no idea".

Changing a few things in an xml is hardly digging into game files?FBtheSQL wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2024 9:02 pm It funny when PC owners think Console owners don't have a clue about computers by saying things like "until you see what is actually possible on PC... you have no idea".

Even without doing that, simply changing the graphics preset can have a huge difference in how the game looks and runs. You could also use Geforce Experience if you have a Nvidia gpu
