Part of the required mods problem is making sure you pick them when starting the map or remembering what mods are needed for that map.

Also DJs motto should be "im gonna live forever if the good die young" 😂😂😂

I agree with a lot of DJ has to say and around 1:06:00 Mark about whole required mods and that for console players. As A Console Player (ALONE) DJ Hitted that nail on the head. I lost Evergreen Valley as had it download then quickly install to look at another map that had required mods. Did it because prefer to uninstall 1 thing that I can easily find afterwards instead I dont know, having to look for 23 of those 25 mods that I dont use and will never use. It is a pain in the rear. Another thing that ties as being A Content creator I will talk about is yes if I dont fancy playing X map but I love this new highly detailed map and best map in Farm Sim History but is 900mb (Worth It). I have to manually search on my console which isn't easy for 23 mods and uninstall. I would have to manual search it as where I play other maps, I got other mods that take like 75% of the total storage I have on my console. Now As A Content Creator (Yes A Small one regardless). I do map reviews (getting back into after I did tons during FS19). When I do my map tours and then I am down. I got that issue of uninstalling the required mods. and yeah searching and uninstalling 25 mods takes like 5 minutes. Especially when I am required to use my PC next to me to have the map page so I can then make it easier to manually search using the search function. Any map I review that has a required mods is gonna have a mark against it's name as DJ talked about the effect of first time new mappers putting these stupid 10,20 or 30 required mods. As a console content creator, that makes me wondering is it worth going through all of this and including waiting to download, that is 5-30 Minutes of my day lost. Just for that 1 map. Agree with DJ in the point / jokingly comment on banning required mods. The mapper can suggest X mods to use but don't make it a hard wired thing or at least it is on console where when I want to download X map, I have the option to not install these recommended mods. And I agree with the whole DMI where they got 10th, 13th and 24th most downloaded mod in the first page on top downloads. Just because these are used on maps where it is required. Maybe perhaps for example, I use OmaTana, Schultz, Jos and Macktrucker921 mods on most if not all game saves I play (Both for content and just personal save files where I want to unwind), where perhaps let say if I decided tomorrow to start making maps for Farm Sim and I want to use e.g. Schultz's tool box. I can then ask permission and then as part of it. Have a section on the map page where it clearly credits Schultz and what mod(s) of his I used on my map. Of course, it down to ones discretion and own choice if A modder gives permission to have assets used in a map. For let say the circumstance I made A map for modhub and use bunch of mods in my map and not gotten the permission, then said modder can message giants and then have that map removed immediatly. Yeah that has potential of open a can of worms with being abused but I think that is best way to get around this whole required mods for new maps. especially 1st time map makers. I appreciate modders even right now who still makes effort and wanting to make mods for Farm Sim. I enjoy seeing new maps, especially something A player may not have seen in past maps played on and I respect the effort being put it. Especially map makers as a whole but when then I thought about giving this map a go, boom , oh yeah heres 25 mods you gotta download. Makes me question and wonder if it is worth it. That is me as a casual console player. Mini rant over as I also seen this popping off recently and seen MANY commtents about on other discord servers, FB and KZbin and thought comment something here (and copying to the Farm Sim Show Podcast) as this is one of couple things that needs to get dressed going forward with the Farm Sim Franchise as a whole. Yeah just one person and one opinion and think I am talking out of my rear. But, just something thought worth sharing to the community as community feedback and communication is one of most important things.

DJ Maybe before you complain about what map makers do, you should try to make your own map. It takes a lot of time and there are are a lot of things to learn to make a map and you are dismissing them just because you have to download a few extra mods

[@fabioloureiro2632]

The main issue I have with these required mods trend is the fact that it just makes the mod folder a mess and a pain to organize mods. I would say that most people playing on pc at least, have a look at their mod folder from time to time and delete stuff they dont use anymore (for a good reason, mods can mess up your game even if you dont have the object spawned on the map) and I usualy end up have to redownload a bunch of mods because I need them to play a specific map. It's just annoying to deal with that and sometimes those required mods are useless or there's better options.
