Thanks to you both, scroft and oxy, in allowing us to see the map in its final push to be released and the effort oxy has put in to get that few % of issues resolved for us.
It's really looking good. I can't find anything now so maybe Giants will find a few behind the scenes but nothing fail worthy is my guess. My bet is 10 days from now it will be on modhub
We all want Calmsden. I live in EU, and prefer a UK map, and after an Italian map too. Thank you Scroft for all your content for us to enjoy. THANK YOU Oxygendavid for all the maps you've made for us to enjoy FS.
Can't wait to get my hands on this amazing map this should be a standard map for the game in my opinion. Glad to see some new fichers with the boggy ground and flooded roads.
Thanks for the info regarding the bug with the manure pit, I thought it was something I was doing wrong 😊 I probably like a lot of people am going back to Fs22 until Calmsden is released, like you the base game maps are probably the best they have been but I'm already bored with them. I definitely think we need Calmsden released asap, and I also think rather than keep releasing mods Giants need to give priority to bug fixes in the base game.
Calmsden will be stuck behind 1400 3m cultivators on the mod list. LOL. Really, I dont think anybody will have a complaint if he got moved up on the list. I think he's earned that right. I've been playing oxy's map since Marwell Manor 17
I tried Riverbend Springs and ended up using it for testing mods that I plan on using. Believe it or not, I am still playing on Calmsden on FS22; however, the new map is simply stunning in every way. I am sad about the cow pasture not being like it was in ‘22. However, the pasture you placed with invisible boundaries is a great compromise. Perhaps a “how to” tutorial video would be greatly appreciated. FYI, I updated the XML to allow the cow barn to hold 250 cowls and updated the feed capacity. Basically it is a full time dairy farm. Cows eat a lot.
I really hope he is making the new version as well. Maybe a 2 in 1 download (like what they did with frontier) 1 classic original Calmsden and the new 2k25 Calmsden with new yard.
I kinda of hope the year 1 pass map is in scotland i have never really seen anything about scottish farming so that would be really cool. Plus my ancestors are scottish so gotta farm in the family area😂
How are you getting the silo fill stats to the right of your screen? And on the issue of "when" -- I remember the trouble Oxy had getting Oakfield released on FS17, GIANTS seemed to be actively picking up tiny faults just to delay it.
Riverbend Springs is quality map and brand-new! Calmsden" is also a quality map but it is a 22 port that most people have played already. It's good for those that never played it, I would recommend it, for them! but I like new over old. I don't care about the country of origin has long has it's a good workable map. I like to broaden my horizons the map doesn't dictate the style of play for me I play my way regardless. ''If you don't like my opinion, then that's your problem not mine I only say this because I got jumped on for having a different opinion to some that wasn't very nice, but you know what I don't care. Nice video good info.
"Test the map, we don't want cultivators" .... that's the precise reason why Giants don't post a testing list anymore. And about the map being bumped up in the que , that wouldn't be fair to the other modders, now would it. I get were you're coming from, in wanting the map, just saying to the other modder is would be unfair, they've got to wait, so does Oxy.
Did Oxy fix the rainbow effect from your last episode or did he end up having to remove it? Hoping they priorities this map ive seen on various FB groups and forums many players wont even buy FS25 until this map is out lol
I get that, bud. But it's a big brand in the UK. It's like saying Jag isn't British because it's made in India. But if you had Jaguars driving around the map, it would feel right. Just like seeing McHale as a brand added to a fictional Scottish map.
A map I would love 'reimagined' would be the FS2017 Dutch Map "Joran's Farm" by Maverick74 and a 15 year old Dutch boy 'Joran' who passed from cancer. The lad was also a gifted modder having created some mods and re-skinned vehicles for his map. There were also a number of other well known modders who participated in its building. Unfortunately he didn't get to see it released and played on. I really cannot imagine what it could be like given the advances made in FS2025. youshould look at it Scroft.maybe even attempt a 'nostalgic' look back at it and do a 'Let's Play' on it with Beanie. Yes it was really a Multiplayer Map but I loved playing it as a Single Player.There are a few game plays on it but no REAL serious plays on it. Which I think was a shame. Itwas also a little 'rushed'. Asit came out just before FS2019 was due out Please have a conversationwith oxy and maybe Lanceyboi to 're-imagine' this OUTSTANDING LOST GEM OF A MAP.. A ferry, a HUGE fuel refinery,, 3 major silo depots one of which on the HUGE main farm, a BRIDGE to be built, a number of other major factories to be built, 8 orchards, 8 greenhouses, a steelworks with blast furnace that can be seen across the map when operating, so many selling points and animals, even now not covered in modern Farming Sim games.
I know Oxy does brilliant work and that there is supposed to be potholes, I just thought that the road was more like driving on ground rather than tarmac, like the ground def is effecting the surface
Hey buddy. I'm going both days. I'll be wearing a scroft hoodie and will be at the FS booth at random times throughout both days. I hope to see you there 👍
Substance is key. I was taught to go the extra mile and show your passions in life, not to do the bare minimum to get by. So I would much prefer 1000 words in your example. Have a great day!
@Scroft it wasn't that I mean, it was repeating yourself several times about the silage pit not reaching the back and sending a screenshot to oxy, I think you said it maybe 4 times 🤣
Why dont Giants employ some of the top modders like Oxy to consult on creation of base game maps ? Every new version comes with rubbish maps and then we have to wait for the modding community, without reward , to make the game playable.
go back to the shop u missed something thats standing out and looks completely out of place, gaints will see it, cant even miss it so out of place as soon you enter take look at front and you will notice something rather wrong with one of the placeable tractor and fence
He's been working on mods since 2013. I'd say maps should take a focus when testing because players want that right now. If it was six months down the line, then yeah, I fully agree. But players are moving away from the game and playing other titles or older versions of it.
@Scroft that might be the case but in the type of world we live in right now I think the more fairness and honesty the better and to me giants have always been fair and honest so they shouldn't start jumping people to the front of the que its not morally right in anything else in the world or life so why should it be right for giants? I do get what your saying and yh a new map would maybe solve those problems but it still wouldn't make it right mate.
Giants took everyone's money gave us a half working game and then went on holiday and let 1000s of mods build up. Thank you for people like oxy whos worked over the holidays for free to make this game better.
What grinds my gears is the amount of useless mods they release. We don’t need hundreds of sheds and houses, etc. What we need are mods that will be functional and helpful, as well as some maps. Not sure who is asking for 3m cultivators and such. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure there are some people who want to play legit with a small farm and equipment, but I feel the vast majority of player base wants bigger implements, bigger volume trailers and the like. Base game equipment is lacking in options as well as tractors. Let see some functional mods and implements rather than a million different sheds, houses and tiny pieces of equipment. Don’t even get me started on the tractor mods available for console, sure there are some, exactly the same as the others just with different wheel option etc, that’s a joke to me. Seems like everyone is getting on the mod making wagon and submitting useless mods, but that is just my opinion. Rant over lol.
Get it off you chest mate. It's something I think a lot of players agree on. Quality over quantity is much better. But also having a good choice. It's a balancing act. Thanks for watching
I won't hold my breath for the English map if giants are making it it's bound to be crap, definitely won't be buying the first game season or the second or the third. In FS22 I found most of the DLC's pretty mundane at best, at worst bloody awful.
"We don´t want the polish cultivator, we want Calmsden"
Amen brother! :D
Hell yeah!
Thanks scroft for letting your viewers in on the testing process you do.. very interesting part of map making.. cant wait
Thanks to you both, scroft and oxy, in allowing us to see the map in its final push to be released and the effort oxy has put in to get that few % of issues resolved for us.
It's really looking good. I can't find anything now so maybe Giants will find a few behind the scenes but nothing fail worthy is my guess. My bet is 10 days from now it will be on modhub
I'm more excited for Calmsden FS25 than I was for FS25 Release
Looking awesome. Way better then any base game map.
We all want Calmsden. I live in EU, and prefer a UK map, and after an Italian map too. Thank you Scroft for all your content for us to enjoy. THANK YOU Oxygendavid for all the maps you've made for us to enjoy FS.
1300 of those awaiting mods are 3 metre cultivators or in game tractors 😂
😂😂
🤣🤪
Can't wait to get my hands on this amazing map this should be a standard map for the game in my opinion. Glad to see some new fichers with the boggy ground and flooded roads.
I’ve gone back to 22 waiting on this map to come out I just prefer to play a British map as you said .
Really looking forward to this one 👏🏻👏🏻
Bunker used to fill better on 22 version. Good idea to update the main farm with Nathans buildings I think. 👍👍
Looking forward for Calmsden. Thank you Scroft.
You bet! Thanks for watching bud. I appreciate the longtime support 🙏
This looks absolutely awesome, top work and thank you to you both Scroft and Oxy. We want Calmsden and not the Polish cultivator.
Thanks for the info regarding the bug with the manure pit, I thought it was something I was doing wrong 😊
I probably like a lot of people am going back to Fs22 until Calmsden is released, like you the base game maps are probably the best they have been but I'm already bored with them.
I definitely think we need Calmsden released asap, and I also think rather than keep releasing mods Giants need to give priority to bug fixes in the base game.
Love the videos keep up good work and Nathan should make the sheds a mod for fs25 if possible
He's just announced this in Oxy's discord. So everyone will be able to build the farm 👍😊
Calmsden will be stuck behind 1400 3m cultivators on the mod list. LOL. Really, I dont think anybody will have a complaint if he got moved up on the list. I think he's earned that right. I've been playing oxy's map since Marwell Manor 17
I'm confident it won't be that long 😊
Can't wait for it to be released, it was the first modded map i downloaded on 22 aswell!
Loving the series thanks for another video!
I tried Riverbend Springs and ended up using it for testing mods that I plan on using. Believe it or not, I am still playing on Calmsden on FS22; however, the new map is simply stunning in every way.

Cows eat a lot.
That's a good idea. I'm happy to share it in my discord when the map drops
Lovely, I can’t wait…!!!!
The bunker thing you're doing. Surely the chaff will be pushed to the back wall by compressing it and by buckets and silage shields/pushers?
yes i am ready for a new map.
This kind of maps is the best
Can’t wait for if have a feeling in the farm hand will move back to Camsdan
MC Hale is an Irish company, based in Co. Mayo. Not UK. Love your content, by the way. You have talent for this sort of thing.
Thanks buddy. I know and your spot on but it's also big in the UK and think it would be great for UK and Irish players 😊👍
I really hope he is making the new version as well. Maybe a 2 in 1 download (like what they did with frontier) 1 classic original Calmsden and the new 2k25 Calmsden with new yard.
Nathan has just announced he is making his sheds a placeable to use. So everyone will be able to build it in game 👍
@Scroft that's nice! 👍🏼
@@Scroft That is really good news! It really ads new dimensions to the map.
@@Scroft where will he drop them tho? Only on discord or are you gonna share them on your FB?
once this is out i will then be able to upgrade from FS22 to FS25
Likewise 👍👍
Same here🤝
I'm thinking Tom Pemberton packs chaff all the way to the back and side walls, it's not a pyramid.
The way that bunker is forming looks pretty good u not think 🤔. When it comes to compressing u will be able to get all way round edges
How far behind is court farm gonna be lol love both farms so can’t wait for this to come out so bored of the current base maps
I kinda of hope the year 1 pass map is in scotland i have never really seen anything about scottish farming so that would be really cool. Plus my ancestors are scottish so gotta farm in the family area😂
One of the best maps from 22 was a map called Gateshead. It's on modhub and is set in Scotland. Worth checking out bud
How are you getting the silo fill stats to the right of your screen?
And on the issue of "when" -- I remember the trouble Oxy had getting Oakfield released on FS17, GIANTS seemed to be actively picking up tiny faults just to delay it.
So the cows arent allowed out in the field? Calmden 22 had two or three hundred cows.
Cracking map!
It's to make the most of the dynamic pastures. When it gets fixed
👏🏻
I am struggling to get into fs at the moment. Even though in real life rained off. I really can't wait for this map
Not long buddy

Nice video good info.
Will the bunker bleed if the silage goes too far?
i agree that the trailer should go back a little further 😎
They need to check gates r working first to scrofts demand if not it will fail scrofts needs ❤😂
Is there gonna be a farm hand version of calmsden eventually ?
I use a plow on wheel loader to push it back
👏
Do you know if and when Oxy is going to release Court Farm map,, Thats one of my favourite UK maps,,
Can i ask how you get calmsden farm on fs25?
Silver springs sucks... Looking forward to playing this map...
will the farm hand come to fs25 at some point? calmsden is looking great!
Eventually.. i just need mods to keep it the best I can. So in time
haven't had issues with manure on console with pigs at least

He needed to remove it. He unfortunately couldn't get it to work in the sky. It's a strange one
Mchale is manufactured in Ballinrobe Republic of Ireland and is owned by the brothers Padraic and Martin McHale not British.
I get that, bud. But it's a big brand in the UK. It's like saying Jag isn't British because it's made in India. But if you had Jaguars driving around the map, it would feel right. Just like seeing McHale as a brand added to a fictional Scottish map.
@@ScroftI didnt mention that you in this video said that Mchale is a british brand when it isnt.They dont even have a plant in the uk
I'm hoping there will be a update before the maps come out
Me too. I hope they have 2 teams. One working on modd and the other on bug fixes
would love to see ktwo equiptment
Yeah, another great shout
Hi scroft When is the next videos coming out? I love your videos.
A map I would love 'reimagined' would be the FS2017 Dutch Map "Joran's Farm" by Maverick74 and a 15 year old Dutch boy 'Joran' who passed from cancer.

I don't think Giants will run the risk of any preferential treatment for mod testing. Should just be the order they received them.
My guess is 10 days from now. If I was placing a bet I would say 18th Jan
my prediction is atleast two months maybe 3 at the speed they release something everyting from giants is so slow.
Hi I’ve noticed when you were driving the New Holland to field 10 the tractor was driving a bit rough, just wondering if the road surface isn’t smooth
No it is not smooth there are potholes and everything in it OXY is a bloody Legend
I know Oxy does brilliant work and that there is supposed to be potholes, I just thought that the road was more like driving on ground rather than tarmac, like the ground def is effecting the surface
do you no when it is coming out
My guess is 2 weeks max. But it depends on Giants. But if I was to bet on it I'd put my bet on 10 to 15 days
is oxy bringing court farm to fs25 scroft ?
Yes he is
@@danielottzen244 nice cant wait for both maps ill deffo be doing a serie s on both maps
Bunkers are the same on base game maps.
Evening or morning whenever your reading this scroft are you going to LAMMA next Wednesday or Thursday and if you are what day are you going
Hey buddy. I'm going both days. I'll be wearing a scroft hoodie and will be at the FS booth at random times throughout both days. I hope to see you there 👍
@ ok I’ll try and find you
1500 mods to check through and 1400 of them are gates for scroft
When you've got a 1000 word essay and you only have 200 words to say!
Substance is key. I was taught to go the extra mile and show your passions in life, not to do the bare minimum to get by. So I would much prefer 1000 words in your example. Have a great day!
@Scroft it wasn't that I mean, it was repeating yourself several times about the silage pit not reaching the back and sending a screenshot to oxy, I think you said it maybe 4 times 🤣
@Scroft also wasn't trying to be negative just a wee joke from a grumpy man waiting for calmsden myself 🤣
Why dont Giants employ some of the top modders like Oxy to consult on creation of base game maps ? Every new version comes with rubbish maps and then we have to wait for the modding community, without reward , to make the game playable.
go back to the shop u missed something thats standing out and looks completely out of place, gaints will see it, cant even miss it so out of place as soon you enter take look at front and you will notice something rather wrong with one of the placeable tractor and fence
No we need more 2.3m mulchers and 720p shed textures
Yes number 666
the texture is all wrong why is grass looking like chaff corn ?????? hope he can do something about that
It's the in game texture. The bunker converts it. But Maizeplus mod when that comes out will sort that one out.
it shouldnt be bumpbed up the que, that wouldnt be fair on other modders i would hope giants would be fair to everybody.
He's been working on mods since 2013. I'd say maps should take a focus when testing because players want that right now. If it was six months down the line, then yeah, I fully agree. But players are moving away from the game and playing other titles or older versions of it.
No man everyone is the same. Presential treatment would kill giants. IMO the priority should be for new never seen before maps over ported ones.
@Scroft that might be the case but in the type of world we live in right now I think the more fairness and honesty the better and to me giants have always been fair and honest so they shouldn't start jumping people to the front of the que its not morally right in anything else in the world or life so why should it be right for giants? I do get what your saying and yh a new map would maybe solve those problems but it still wouldn't make it right mate.
Scroft has the map got MTA?
No as this is a crossplay version and MTA is not allowed on console.
It's all platforms so not full. But FS25 is much better and has more
Never pre order software as it continues to enable developers to release broken games.
Giants took everyone's money gave us a half working game and then went on holiday and let 1000s of mods build up. Thank you for people like oxy whos worked over the holidays for free to make this game better.

This game desperately needs PF.
I agree with you there 💯
My god, we need some maps...in game maps are horrible .
