This is absolutely my favorite start from scratch map in 25. I've done at least 5 long term play throughs. Not sure how advanced you are in modding or if you would even care to do it. But making a small scratch start kit would be so awesome. My ideal start would be a nice canvas tent, a working campfire and some coolers / fishing decorations etc. Maybe an old beat up smaller pickup with a beer cooler and fishing poles. So many things come close but they either don't quite fit the feel. But i make due with what i find and let the imagination do the rest. P.S I absolutely love that you included a water plane under the map. I've made some epic lakes! lol. Anyhow, if my suggestion is petty, just say it, it's fine. Just Wanted to let you know I appreciate your mod.
Hey there LostHope. I am really enjoying the map so far. Putting in a lot of hours. I absolutely love the Gold processing building compared to others I have used. However, I did figure our how to get gold flake from concentrate, but when I move it to the smelter, it accepts it visually, but is not outputting gold bars. I see gold bar on the sales chart, but it says missing fill type? Am I missing something or is this a known bug? I am perfectly happy regardless because it lets me sell the gold flake directly at the bank for a pretty hefty profit, just wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong with the smelter. Either way, thanks for the map, it is awesome.
P.S, if you are looking for any suggestions, a more "start from scratch/homestead" option would be really cool, just a tent or tiny cabin, with a campfire, a mini trommel/wash plant with a decent little fishing hole, shovel/wheel barrow etc could be a lot of fun. Then we can work our way up to a big mining site and it would feel more earned. But that may be too much work, I am not a modder I just enjoy others mods, so I try to be considerate when requesting or suggesting things. But a lot of players enjoy simple beginnings, and all of the mining options out there right now start with the need for a lot of large expensive equipment. Thanks again for the great work.
I absolutely LOVE this mod. Not enough modern looking animal pens for fs25, everyone just keeps making dirty old beat up barns or those horrid maroon roofed ones with no color change options. Any way you could create one for cattle and sheep/goats as well with storage for milk/wool? I would gladly donate to Patreon! Either way, thank you for this mod, it goes on every one of my farm builds!
I have been waiting for something like this! So glad you are the one tackling it. I play a lot of start from scratch empty maps because i love to customize the worlds myself. But this limits the lived in feel as there is no traffic, npc, townsfolk etc that you would see on something like Judith Plains. This is going to help tremendously once you get the NPC to show on the map and make it feel less lonely or like a ghost town. Downloading now to play around and I will definitely follow for progress.
Since you are asking for suggestions might I request that we can create bonds with them beyond favors. Maybe get a gal to go on dates, and eventually move in as a wife. Or just a friend who is down and out and needs a place to stay, they could move in and in return for providing shelter they are your personal farm hand. Or just a standard interview/hire system where you get the same worker every time. Would make it feel more realistic than just getting a random worker every time you hire for field work. Being able to customize appearance would be cool too. As far as having them live with you, even just an addable trigger to place so that when not out working, they spawn to the same point on your farm every time. Hope any of that is useful or doable, if not, I am sure it will be a great mod nonetheless .
Hundreds missing collisions, crop names written with small letters or _%$__ Everywhere you look you see sloppiness!!!
@Jack Johnson Lol rude... you literally go around finding ways to call peoples work trash when you downloaded it free of charge. Amever is an awesome map. Maps are huge and a LOT of attention to detail has to go into it, you cannot always catch every little thing. That is what constructive criticism is for, to tell someone that something is wrong in a positive way. Not to simply call them slop then move along.
Glad I found this and you specifically said BUG mod manager. I recently downloaded the other dudes and liked it so went to add a comment and saw everyone saying he stole it from you. I deleted and am downloading your version now. Thanks for all the hard work and sorry that others take advantage. I saw your comment below saying "if he takes the next version as his own that is just his show of character and none of your concern". That shows a lot about your personal character sir, I appreciate ya.
P.S - I don't know how modding works, I just enjoy using them, but since you are asking others for suggestions I thought I'd ask, is it possible to add an option to set roof color on shed mods? Most have decent colorway options but never the option to change the roof colors so that farmyard looks more cohesive. Especially on animal pens. Even 2 options of black or white would help a lot. This may be an ignorant request, but thought maybe it was possible. Anyhow, thanks again, this is a great idea.
@BUG05 10-4. It's a petty complaint. Just hard to build a modern animal farm even after all the mods available these days. So many shiny color matched sheds and houses but every animal pen either made to look old and beat up, or the Hoermann options, which I think as far as looks go, are pretty modern looking besides those Hideous maroon roofs. lol. The packs never come with color change options like most of the sheds do. Judith Plaines definitely did it in a way I love, Wish they would make a downloadable animal pen pack with changeable color ways, I'd pay for that one! Just a personal peeve, definitely not a reason to not enjoy the game. I appreciate the response!
This is my absolute FAVORITE farmhouse in FS25 to date. The only thing I would request is if you could give an option to change the door colors. I want to use it so badly on my Big Sky farm on Judith Plaines but I get OCD when I can't color match. I have the color design kit mod and it allows me to make it almost perfect, but no door color option. Either way, it is a petty complaint, lol. It looks great on several of my other map saves. Thank you for the hard work, it is hard to find good farmhouses as everyone usually focuses on sheds. Love the lighting scheme in the garage also, perfect for keeping hot rods and prize truck in! I think I have every one of you're buildings at this point, I will be joining you're Patreon soon seeing how much effort you put in to making this game awesome for us all!
