one request could you add an extension to the fermenting silos
I'm having an issue if I own over 35 vehicles the game won't come up over 8fps it runs around 60fps if I have less than 35 vehicles I've tried it with and without mods and even turned my graphic settings down to very low and still the same outcome. Any ideas? Thanks
i am unable to sell the start farm
За все время игры заметил только ошибку по поводу сплайна пешеходного трафика. Курсплей и автодрайв работают в штатном режиме (одиночная игра) Но записать много курсов не получается из-за красот карты. Все время отвлекаюсь) Шикарнейшая карта. Огромное спасибо
any update on the courseplay/stuck at 100% compiling shaders in multiplayer issue? Really enjoy courseplay and gotta have it, i see someone mentioned it worked for them so im a bit stumped as to why it would for someone else but not others, Thanks
Hey, Great map! I’m starting my own farm at 140, and would love to be able to purchase the edge of the map west of the road.
anyone know if we have an autodrive file for this map yet, i'm lazy hahaha
hey I have a question so i downloaded the game and the required mods to go with it but i cant see it on my maps in game I took all my mods out of my folder and had the map and those 2 mods and still won’t show up! Am I doing anything wrong here? thank you
I seem to have an issue where I am unable to purchase any animals, any advice. Love the map!
One more question when spraying manure getting this error dump, repeated(quickly and alot lol)

I know related to precision farming, but would this need to be added in map with custom spray types? https://thundrfs.itch.io/fs25-precision-farming-configurator
Currently unsure if mod conflict, a bug, or if I'm doing something wrong, but every time I try to create a job for the AI delivering somewhere, it always says that the target is unreachable
Any Anhydrous mods you recommend? I have one installed that was in FS22 but it was posted by a different person than the original creator. Not sure if there is another mod out there for it.
Great map, love it always good to get the big stuff out. One thing im trying to remove the pig barn in the green and white farm, most of it is not a issue in GE. However the troughs a silo and slurry point are not in GE. Is there anyway i can remove these items?
fantastic work sir.
Excellent job on this map! I am loving playing on it so far. It feels very immersive and having multiple town locations is great.
One minor suggestion would be to possibly include a vehicle workshop on the farms either standalone or incorporated into one of the existing sheds. Also, maybe include a power washer on each farm.
Having a great time and will let you know if I detect any bugs.
I love it but it crashes randomly. I do have... 775 mods, BUT in my defense, i dont crash on any other map, 4x or otherwise. Nothing showing up in the logs. PC steam version.
I am having the same problem, did you find a solution
having a issue where some people cant unload in to the silo when some can this is on a dedicated sever any tips
Had the same issue last night on a private multiplayer server. One of the guys with the issue restarted and it worked again. Not sure if it's Giants server related or map related (FPS also horrendous makes me think servers).
After mowing clover and alfalfa do we need to roll the field like with grass, or do we just let it regrow on it's on?
it will regrow just as grass
Awesome map. Wont let me save. I have tried with mods and without mods. It does kinda hang out at compiling shaders when it loads. I can’t find the shader cache file to delete or log file to read. I have no problem finding the fs22 shader cache. I bought my game off game pass. I can’t get the log to pop on screen while playing, Turned the settings to true in the game xml and the log is a no show on any map so I can’t verify any errors for ya
im the same using gamepass and cant save
on other thread folks say, Gamepass versions have issue saving on a 4x map. Can you check any mod conflicts, better winch mod or Thundr default types mods
i delete all the mods but the two u need and it still wont save
Amazing work! Thank you for sharing with us. Sent you a small donation. I would add another entrance over the tracks on 82? (unless I'm missing it) Going through the BGA can be pretty tight.
Thank you, greatly appreciated! I will smooth out in next version
for anyone with issues. I play with various script mods and all of mine work including courseplay except for better winches. With better winches it would load but I struggled to keep 20 FPS on a decent desktop. Not sure it will help all but figured it would save some folks some headaches.
thank you for sharing
100% had this same issue...i first loaded the map with all my other mods in, script mods, everything i don't have any problems with on any other maps (around 750) mods and it struggled to get to 15fps, took out the TH Better Winch mod and the map cruises at a smooth 60fps easy....so deff a possible solution for anyone with fps issues on it....love the map!!!
This is a very impressive map, It is big and it feels big. driving south on 87 over the bridge and looking at the minimap thinking it's not far to my turn off but in the game it was still a long way away. Love it. Only thing is some areas that are part of the town/roads area along the rivers I wish we could buy without buying the town for some forestry work.
OMG this amazing!!!! Im sure you will work out any small issues/bugs and as for any negative comments or complaining ignore. VERY good job just as you did with UMRV. No issues with FPS and loading up for our server.
there are chickens in middle of field 54
Thanks for reporting, Some mod conflcit is causing that, i am investigating.
Finally a reason to play FS25
Even after clearing shaders and trying min settings, I'm only getting about 15-20 FPS, system usage doesn't appear too high either (GPU around 60% and RAM around the same) any advice? Map's stellar as yours always tend to be, so I'm really looking to play it without lagging to hell and back. For real, the map's incredible.
I was skeptical about a certain mod being an issue with FPS since some comments indicated that even disabling ALL but required mods had no effect however, disabling Better Winches actually fixed my FPS issues entirely.
Better WINCHES???? F-ing hell if that fixes it I'm gonna be so pissed at myself, it caused issues with Cunningham's 8010 for me prior too.
I tested all of mine and of course better winches was one of the last and it was definitely my issue
Yeah, I can confirm now, that it was in fact the issue, never in a million years would I have guessed that. Thanks guys, I'll update my original post on here.
Great Map but question, when it snows some/all of the main roads don't accumulate snow, could you add that
yeah, I have no experience in bender so I have not added that, I will learn and apply in next version
I would help if you have any blender work that needs done. i would like to merge the long bridges into one, smoothing the collisions and concrete barriers to start. Happy to help.
thank you
fogot to add...LOVE THE MAP
having an issue with the AI when traveling south on main highway. It wants to jump off bridge to get to road below. Pathing going north also has issue on same bridge, it takes the road below and then tries to get on bridge, getting stuck on railroad tracks. This is the big bridge with southward decline.
I think I may have missed some ai splines; it’s a work to cover every part of map, giants made their map in 2 years, mine is a 4times standard map, I did as best I could for ai splines, some are hard to add
Man, loving the map so far!
I would like to suggest, if possible (maybe on a future update), if we could remove the animal barns and houses, so we could replace them (with yours from the map) and customize the fencing, so we can have more liberty on creating a farm, for example, with no pigs or sheep.
thanks, will consider that suggestion!
What a map! 👏👏👏
Only small issue I've found so far is that the semi truck appears to mute all audio soon after switching engine on...and only way to reset is to save game and completely exit fs25, then reenter game to reset audio. I bought another semi, and works fine...all other vehicles in starting game good. I'm playing through Steam on a Mac.
Thanks again, awesome map!
I've had the same issue and i thought it was my soundcard giving up.
Glad you found out. Saved some money.
Very nice map btw.
as usual the attention to detail is second to none, excellent job bro!!
map is awesome I have spent over 5 hrs just driving around trying to decide on which farm I like best lmao
This completely made my day!! I was like a gitty kid at xmas when I saw this lol.
i can not load past 84%? any idea why ?
Can you check any mod conflicts, better winch mod or Thundr default types mods
Thundr has an update out for the default types, and it does work with the map
game runs at 14 FPS at all times, with and without mods (not including required mods for map). I have played with the graphic settings, any clue what it could be? I am at a loss at this point.
lower your graphic settings to the lowest settings
I have tried that, im runnning a fairly built PC, it handles every other map. i play with it some mor
try deleting the shader cache file. I posted instructions further down the thread.
I found better winches mod caused my issue
Thank you, better winches was the culprit for my issues.
it wont show up in game any suggestions
same
updating FS25 to v1.9 fixed it
I adore the map and am eager to begin working on my series. However, I'm really keen to remove some of the fruit types from the map and add custom types. I can add new types but don't know how to remove base game fruits without issue.
It would be good if in the future, on the map, the road signs did not have a collision. The signs get confused and the charm of this map is lost.
How can these even be a 4x it feels like its 4 4x maps combined great work.
