Introducing the Sunflower 9433-30 Grain Drill for FS22. This is only an edit/update of an existing mod located here: https://tysondiniz.me/fs22-john-deere-455-3-section-box-drill/ & here: https://tysondiniz.me/great-plains-3s3000hd-3-section-box-drill/
I've wanted a Sunflower drill since I began playing Farming Simulator. This is a quick edit to fill that gap. Full credit goes to the original modders listed below. Here also is the changelog for what I have done personally.
1) Edited the color to match other Sunflower mods currently available as well as standardized the diffuse colors for the entire model
2) Created custom decal mesh to support the Sunflower decals
3) Edited the unfold speeds and speeds of the row marker animations
4) Edited the wheel size and location to correct the floating appearance of all tires
5) Edited the height of the collisions for the row units to support the lower ride height after editing wheel size
6) Changed the press wheels to be rubber rather than shiny painted metal and randomized the rotation of the dirt texture for overall better appearance when in motion
7) Moved the location and rotation of the fertilizer tank to more closely match the Sunflower drill.
8) Added an animation to the cap on the tank and added internal mesh for proper internal appearance
9) Made the entire fertilizer system a store option
10) Fixed the fertilizer pressure gauge textures
11) Re-added the stand animations and functionality for in the event that you want to disconnect the drill while un-folded
12) Fixed the chain textures and animations on the row markers
13) Fixed the lift cylinders on the main wheels so the punch no longer extends out beyond the cylinder when folded
14) UDIM'd the wheel hubs to allow for proper color of grease caps and lugs
15) Added a transform for all opened disks so the disks now remain angled properly when the drill is lowered and in motion
16) Removed the requirement to "turn on" the drill to operate. Only lowering is now required (this is a ground driven machine)
17) Tweaked the work areas to better align with the row units
18) Separated and added a diffuse to the platform walk-ways to give the appearance of perforated metal
19) Adjusted the height of the attacher joint to more closely match the drawbar of tractors
20) Enabled direct seeding
21) Covers now operate as they should depending on if you have the fertilizer system installed or removed
22) Seeder now properly displays in the in-game store
KNOWN ISSUES:
1) With the fertilizer system not installed, the 2nd "open cover" option will still exist. Please just cycle past this to close all covers. I have not found an alternate way around this other than combining the box and fertilizer tank cover animations which I opted not to do.
2) There is a game log "warning" due to the size of the mesh for the fertilizer tank in relation to console compatibility. This should not affect PC game play. No other warnings or errors exist at this time.
3) The tongue of the drill falls through the floor of the in-game store. This does not affect the performance or function of the machine after it is purchased.
