[@farmerrabbit]

Awesome Bob. I was working on my flat map today, but I can see I missed a few things and I got unexplainable errors 🤣

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

Backups my friend.. 😊 but never give up😂

[@farmerrabbit]

@@FarmerBoBonKZbin True... Now that you have released a workable version I stopped working on mine and will use yours instead 😁

[@kalsarikannit9587]

You always bring a smile to my face, you are so happy and wholesome! Keep it up my friend, you are the best!

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

You are so kind 😊

[@TheMarnux]

Thank you very much Farmer Bob! You are one of the reasons i started with this addictive hobby😊

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

😂 That is awesome! 😊

[@morath2339]

I love the mars map for fs22 it’s pretty much my main map, would love to see an update that flattens all the fields and makes all buildings removable.

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

Think all buildings can be removed, and you can start from scratch with a totally blank map, but yes we will be bringing it over to fs25 😊

Read that there may not x4 maps for FS25 due to size of the map files. Any thoughts on this?

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

Not for consoles yes.. but we will need to give larger sizes a try for pc for sure. 😊😊

[@FSLandscaping]

Excellent stuff Bob, I tried to open my own map in GE but it crashed

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

Yeah it will not work due to terrain changes. 😊😊

[@FSLandscaping]

@ yeah I found that out, I exported the roads out of the map and imported into us map with no issue but I trees need to be replaced but the terrain when exported just crashes in the new editor, I also found the dem is now double the size so my old one has to be smoothed again

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

Ah yes a lot has changed, thanks for the info. It really helps.. 😊

[@fairhand7584]

Awesome Bob, i have a question for you, do you know ware i can finde the xml file for maps_growth.xml so i can make it growth_faster like a 2-3 days so I can make my own Seasons cycles ? thanks ;)

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

hi there... yes the growth file is not used any more, each fruit now has its own growth included in the fruits xml file, so check for example in $data/foliage/barley/barley.xml so to customize it you will need to reroute the fruits xml files to youe map by copying the ones you want to customize then change the directory in your maps i3d file

[@fairhand7584]

@@FarmerBoBonKZbin Thanks agian ;)

[@sherrydowns4052]

hey hey! do you know if consoles support larger than standard size maps?

[@FSLandscaping]

No they don’t

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

No they only support 2 x standard game size. 😊

[@milesellis6696]

Does the field work exactly the same as it worked in fs22 In giant editor

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

totally different :) see my new fields video

[@Zerox4630]

Hello, do you have a solution on terrain modification? Once I activate the sculpting mode or the painting mode on GE 10 it spits

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

make sure you have the latest editor, they have already released 3 versions in 1 week :) many bugs still to iron out :)

[@Zerox4630]

@@FarmerBoBonKZbin I tried the 3 versions and it crashes when I want to modify the terrain with the 3 versions even on a base map of the game

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

@@Zerox4630 sounds like you have a acess problem.. make sure you dont have file synch programs like one drive running your games folder, 2. did you update game install directory in the editors preferences? this not done it will crash ...

[@Zerox4630]

@@FarmerBoBonKZbin yes my game is well connected and I have no synchronization program running while I try to modify the terrain here since the release of GE I try everything nothing works I admit that it drives me a little crazy, I think I will put it aside and come back when there is a better GE version because I stay on the spot because of it

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

All good my frienf 😊

[@FJBFJT]

Again thank you for the map. I wonder if you could have a look at the increased use of your system power to run Giants Editor 10? At least for me my machine suddenly have to work overtime to cool down using GE10. I never have that in GE9 with fs22. GE9 I can just have open all the time without even noticing in any way. Thanks for the videos anyway.

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

definitely.. the terrain is now extremely complex compared to fs22

[@FJBFJT]

@@FarmerBoBonKZbin yea and maybe I use the GE10 wrong but it seems a little bit more difficult to sculp small roads into a smooth surface. Looking forward to watch some GE10 videos soon. BTW, do you agree the trees are a bit lacking for forestry? No real big spruces but just some pines. I managed to import spruceVar01 from fs22 but on the modmap I can go through the trees, no collisions. I really hope we can get the spruces from fs22 into fs25 somehow.

[@AuzLogging7052]

Can we still add custom map dem the same as 22

[@TheMarnux]

@@AuzLogging7052 you should be able to. But beware of the resolution the DEM you are using. The basegame for FS25 is now 2049 by 2049. I have tried it with the dem from my own map and upscaled it. That worked out. But it is very tough so you need to smoothen the edges to make it look good.

[@AuzLogging7052]

@TheMarnux thanks for the tips mate I will give it a go

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

pleasure :)

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

absolutely.. thanks my friend :)

[@AuzLogging7052]

@FarmerBoBonKZbin thanks mate I'm keen to see some good maps in fs25

[@FJBFJT]

There has been an update to fs25 today and as result your 2X map show lots of error and all my imports from fs25 directory and all my work in GE10 for days are gone. Please help out and expleain this.

[@FJBFJT]

In GE10 all my work was gone but in game everything was as I left it in GE10. It was the GE10 that needed an update on the FS25 update.

[@kevydd-h2p]

User attributes is now in the attributes panel next to visibility condition

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

Awesome thanks for that.. 😅😅

[@FJBFJT]

Maybe you could have showed where to put this map and how you get it in the game cause this is not like fs22. I put it in my mods folder in the documents like i used to in fs22 but nothing shows up in f(ing)s 25.

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

As the download says you need to unzip the download ( always into th3 mods folder same as fs22)

[@FJBFJT]

@@FarmerBoBonKZbin It works now. I did it yesterday as I always do for fs22 and havent changed a thing and today it works. It might be cause I hit the save in giants editor but didnt close the editor. I never do that in GE v9 for fs22 and I can start the game with the editor open. Anyways...I will test this and come back to you. It is unimportant though. I would really like to see how the correct way of importing trees from fs22 cause fs25 doesn't have spruce trees at all. I just copied spruce folder from fs22 and put them in fs25 game folder and imported them in GE10 from fs25 game folder and it works but Im not sure this is the correct way to do it cause I didn't change a thing in any xml file inside fs25. Thanks for the map dude.

[@BohdanLetsPlay]

Hello, no information on how to make a 4x card? I succeeded, but in the game the map does not correspond to my position, and when let’s say I’m plowing, it is displayed in a different place on the map, although grle has increased all the files by 2 times, as I did on farm 22, and the files with ground textures, for some reason, after saving in the editor, they became 512x512 in size, after I doubled them

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

Oh wow.. interesting.. we will need to investigate the larger maps still. Im pretty sure there will be a way. 😅

[@BohdanLetsPlay]

@@FarmerBoBonKZbin Well, everything worked out for me, it works, I tried plowing in the game, it seems to have fixed the error, but there is a nuance regarding the png files in the data, they became 512 in size, and in the game itself the map does not fit a little, at 22 I can easily do this, but here still need to watch

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

ok cool.. yes i need to play round with the map sizes to see what has changed. Will send out a video on that soon. 😊

[@BohdanLetsPlay]

@@FarmerBoBonKZbin I'm really looking forward to it)

how can i import terrein from 22 into new editor? everytime crash when i try it

[@adamtoth6385]

same here...

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

Not sure yet.. the editor is not yet complete, so currently it cannot handle fs22 terrain. As they say, it is still coming. 😊

[@vaskycz4095]

@ i found way, its mot perfect, but if i resize dem texture in data on 2048x2048 and import it into flat map it works. its not smooth but its good. i can import roads and set terrain decal atribute then i can smoothing all easily.

I placed your map in the Mods folder, went to the game, career, empty slot, however, that map does not show up in my map options. It does show up in as a mod in my downloaded content. What am I doing wrong? I'm using the PC version purchased from Giants. Not the Steam version.

@@FarmerBoBonKZbin Thanks a lot "John". It works just fine. Can't wait to see what you will have for us in the future. Was trying to make a map of the farm/ranch I grew up in in Montana. I think I started it in FS 19, then FS 20, and then in FS22. But never got it finished. So, now I'm going to do the best I can to do it in FS25. I still have it on FS22, and maybe wait a while for when you, or someone, makes a video on converting maps to FS25. Thanks again friend.

Awesome im very happy to hear. Yes my first order of business will be to convert Mars V2 from fs22 to fs25 so that entire process will be a video series and we will follow the process together. 😊

How do you set fog?

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

Nit investigated that yet, but if i have to guess it will be in the environment.xml

[@gridoo]

@ ideally we can set the area and density

[@FarmerBoBonYoutube]

Its the same as rain, they will have a few different levels which can be randomly run by the game script. As fog and rain is something that appears and disappear with time. So i dont see much use for adjusting that. What i have seen in game is pretty perfect as it is. 👌 😊

[@gridoo]

@ I want areas that are always in fog.

Hehehe.. no water, since water these days are all custom. But if you need a square waterplane, i have a few on the Western Australia map FS22.. just export that to your map. 😊

[@FJBFJT]

@@FarmerBoBonKZbin What does that mean...custom? I don't understand. Exporting things from fs22 into fs25 is almost impossible. Maybe the water is different. Trying to import trees from fs22 into your modmap with GE10 but almost nothing will get through. Seems like you need to make some videos cause the xml language seems different in fs25.
