      Thank you. Look for all these to be refreshed for Farm Sim 25 soon. Although realistically most things translate very well from one version of the game to the next.

    I put the Store Delivery mod in my mod folder but it's not showing up at all, add a couple more mods with the same issue. Validate the files several times and still no joy. Any good recommendations to resolve this issue? Think about doing a reinstall because I can not play on the US map due to in-game camera issues, but the two other maps work just fine.

    So if you download a mod from modhub, that doesn't show up in the ingame modhub, will it auto-download for friends who want to join in multiplayer? Or will they need to manually download them and install them seperately?

    • @FarmerKlein
      @FarmerKlein  11 месяцев назад

      If the mod is from the Giants mod hub then it will auto download when they try to join the server assuming the mod is released on their platform. This also assumes that its the current release of the mod.

      @@johnathanjohnson5367 I wish I could tell you X site is good and Y site is bad. about the only clear cut black vs white like that is the giants mod hub would be assured clean mods while other sites do not have such assurances. To sum it up in quickly. Look at the giants mod hub. Then compare the mods on the mod hub to the mods on Y site. If you see the same mods on Y site that are the Giants site then one of two things has happened. 1) the site is linking mods back to giants (good) or 2) the site has downloaded thse mods and is hosting them on their own servers and offering them up for download (bad). In case 2 the site has done a pair of things. First Giants pays modders for their work based on download. Those sites are litrally stealing from the modders by rehosting the mods and not sending the downloader to the Giants site to download thus mod authors get no credit. Second most often those sites post the file on downloaders that server up ads in exchange for their services and pay the site some number of pennies or fraction of pennies per download so the site ends up making money off others work while keeping the creator from their own compensation. Any site what hosts mods on that are also on the giants mod hub vs linking back tothe giants hub is not worth using. No site that I am aware of does any sort of malware scanning. Giants does test mods so back to my inital statement there the assured clean place. Thats also not saying every download is bad. Join this discord discord.gg/kz6C5R7t I could go on for over an hour on the subject its rather muddy.

      Your mod folder as well as your save game folders are in the same place regardless of what platform you purchased the game on for PC. C:\Users\Documents\My Games\FarmingSimulator2022 unless you moved your Users folder or your Documents folder and if you had you would have known that and adjusted the path for that. Within that folder is the mods folder.

    What would compressed (zipped) folder mean

    • @FarmerKlein
      @FarmerKlein  2 года назад +1

      a compressed zip folder is how mods are delivered to PC players. Its a collection of files and folders compressed to save space and presented to the computer as a single file that ends in a .zip file extension. Think of it like a duffle bag that has a collection of smaller bags (folders) and individual items (files). You can toss items and bags into the larger bag and when your done you close the bag with the zipper and the end result is one larger bag that is easy to transport that has various things inside it. The game knows how to read the zip files and use the contents within.

      @@sherriebaybeh Some of that depends on his computer's capabilities. 22 is a bit lighter on hardware than 25. FS22 is at the end of its development and while there are a ton of mods and maps that he can use in 22 very little will likley come out at this poitn going forward for 22 so its at its end state which isnt a bad thing just something to point out. FS25 just launched and has ilkley a good 3 years ahead of it on game enhancement, mod and map releases. FS22 can probably be found on sale going forward where as 25 being just launched wont be on sale or will not have very good sales for a while now. To that end 22 may be a lower cost way to see if its something he really gets into or not, As his parent your likley to have the best idea if its a short term interst or something he might grab onto and hold interest in.
