not me finishing recording 4h worth of work and taking a break by watching more Farming Sim content. This game is truly something else. Great cinematic shots!
It really is a beautiful map. I love the new textures, lighting, and activities the traffic engages in. The weather has been great as well...I actually had hail!
Totally agree mate it’s a very immersive place to be! Oh wow you’ve had hail? Can’t wait to see that! Quite excited for a tornado too if I’m honest! That does sound terrible knowing the devastation they cause in real life doesn’t it! But as it’s new to the game it’ll be interesting to see what they’re like! :)
Hey Tinman! Yeh it's one of those 'little' things that help with the continuation of the vids, being able to appear like it's me and make a cinematic at the same time! Love it! :)
@@MarkThor_11 hey buddy! I have a 4k 60hz monitor so 60fps is the must have target. Thankfully I’ve managed to achieve that now though, and the gameplay is utterly perfect! :)
Had the same issue on field 77 with a contract. Also had problems with a cotton contract on another field, (near the rope maker) not going up in percentage and only 97% delivered with some amount left inthe harverster not able to push the pre chamber out into the main chamber to create a bale.
Hello mate! Aah ok yeh it seems quite a few of us have had issues in field 77! Interesting about the cotton harvest too, hopefully Giants will get it fixed ASAP! :)
Excellent second episode down on Riverbend Springs. The only problem with new games is the bugs/ glitches. Hopefully, Giants will get the patches out soon. Anyway great content as always Farmer Sim.
Hey Chris! Yeh I know what you mean mate. I'd half expected one or two though, main thing is they're far from gamebreaking. Thankfully I was able to get it sorted with minimal fuss haha! Thankyou though mate really glad you enjoyed the episode! :)
Perfect episode mate 😊 Really love your content. I did not have problems with contract work on Riverbend, but a friend of mine have reported the same bug as you got there.
Thankyou Mike that’s very kind of you to say mate! I’ve just learned that it might’ve been because I was dropping the straw swaths when harvesting. Had I turned swaths off it MAY have completed normally! Gonna have to test this one! :)
Hi farmer sim it's been grand doing fertiliser and cultivating and spraying so , but haven't done any of the other contracts. Will give them a bash too see what happens I'm currently only on the Xbox , played on the PS5 yet waiting for my new PC. Enjoying the s series good sir very , not really noticing the drop from 4K it still looks pretty crisp
Hey flash! Thankyou very much mate great to hear you're enjoying the series so far! Good to hear too that the contracts you've done have worked ok. Similar to FS22 at launch there's a chance it may just be the harvesting contracts that have a problem :)
Aye mate! Been awhile since I’ve popped into your comment section, been watching your videos and man you’ve come along way since the very first video stream you did, so proud of you and how far your videos have come and your editing is on point. Can’t wait to see more!
I had that issue when doing a harvest contract as well. Harvested canola in field 77, delivered everything and it said something like contract 20% finished. Hope they fix it in a path soon.
I’ve just learned that it may be because I had the straw swaths on, and that they now count toward the contract possibly. Had they been turned off it might’ve completed! Must test this one! :)
i had the same problem with not getting the "correct" amount of percentage when doing a harvesting, but in my case it was because i put the combine to leave a straw swath and that is also included in the percentage, cause after i picked it up it went to 100%
Aaah so it was because my harvester was set to drop straw swaths? That’s very helpful to know thanks mate! I ended up just cancelling the contract and manually putting the earnings into the account via the xml but next time I shall turn the swath off and see if that helps! Really appreciate the message buddy! :)
Love your style! Your vids always look so clean care to share your graphics settings? Ive also spent way more time then i shouldve trying to get it to run like butter like yours. After seeing your results it appears i still have some tweaking to do haha
Hey Andre! It did take a while if I'm honest, and it's still not perfect. I run at 2k resolution with most settings on very high, distances etc at 200%. I turned the volumetric fog quality down to low and the screen space shading rate to off and that seemed to make a big difference, on my system anyway :)
@Farmer-Sim thanks for the replay mate. Do you use dlss or any other frame generation settings and do you experience the flickering that alot of users are experiencing? I've not noticed this issue in your videos
@@andrejsscott6777 You're very welcome mate! No I'm on AMD so don't have DLSS. The flickering has stopped now that I've dropped down to 2K and asking less of my PC. Runs almost perfectly at 60fps now :)
@@Farmer-Sim that's awsome will have a go at those settings! I've read Nvidia users can take advantage of the Fsr3 and frame gen technology as well. I shall see and post here with results Incase anyone else is interested. FYI I only have a rtx3060 and this game is very demanding!
As someone who records in 4K as well, I found that even at 60 FPS capped in game, if my monitor refresh rate wasn't set to 60 and was left on it's native 144hz, the gameplay felt less smooth. If your PC can hold 60 FPS constantly in 4K while recording, consider setting your monitor refresh rate to 60 and have a go. Might still be able to run the 4K resolution. I'll keep watching your content regardless
Hello mate! Yeh my monitor is a native 60hz 4k monitor. Running in 4k, FS25 would sit at roughly 55-60 FPS but it was the constant variance between these numbers that would cause the jittery gameplay. And when I ran the AI worker it would tank to below 40 making it very difficult to record smooth cinematics! Having now changed to 2k and asking less of my GPU it now runs perfectly at 60fps just about everywhere. I spent literally HOURS on release day trying to tweak the settings to remain in 4k but had to admit defeat in the end haha! :)
@@Farmer-Sim sounds good, don t forget to turn on dlls in the graphic settings. DLSS set to quality might give you the extra fps you were after. In case that was already set up when you tried everything, rest assured it looks great in 2K
Please Farmer Sim can you raise the combine reel 3/4 out of the crop, running it as low as you do would cause so many issues like grain loss and straw wrapping around the reel, you would quickly come to a halt using it like that irl. I know it’s a game but as an ex farmer it just makes me cringe. I do love your vids just have to turn away when you combine 😂😂
How are you slowing down the movement speed in flight mode (your cinematics)? I didn't think there was a mod out yet that could adjust walking/running speed and i'ts bugging me I can't get that nice slow, smooth movement to capture cinematic shots.
Hi Jen! Are you on PC? If so you can access the developer commands to enable flight mode/FOV change etc. I also use a control pad that enables much smoother control/speed of movement. If your on PC, open your game.xml file with notepad, locate the line at the bottom that refers to the developer console and change the word false to true, save the file and load up the game. Then when in the game press the tilde key twice (the key under escape) and now you can access the developer commands. Start to type the word flight and you’ll see the entire command for enabling flight mode. Type this command out, hit space then type true and then press tilde key to exit dev menu. Press J to enable flight mode and boom! Up up and away! :)
@@Farmer-Sim@Farmer-Sim Hi, Farmer Sim; thanks for the tip. I've got dev mode enabled, but the speed of movement when flying around is the annoying bit. I've tried bringing PlayerSpeed from FS22 into FS25, which allows us to reduce speed, but although it loads, it doesn't function at all, so there are some code changes. That's out of my pay grade, so I'll wait for TurboStar to update the mod (hopefully).
@ you’re very welcome Jen! I don’t have any other mod installed to alter the player speed, it’s the control pad that allows me to get the slower speeds by just being very gentle on the toggles :)
@@Darksoul-e1c You're very welcome mate! As for if it's worth buying? I guess that'll be entirely down to you and what your plans for your game are? If you plan on doing massive quantities of grasswork then maybe yes it'll be worth buying :)
So many bugs, contracts are 100% bugged. The game should not have been released yet but they wanted Christmas purchases so the early buyers in Nov are beta testing! This is the worst release for Giants. Don't even get me started on the lower amount of tractors on launch. They also wanted the Asian market playing it.. Looking at SteamDB that has not happened, all that work they did to add rice etc... useless!!!

Hello mate! Aah ok thanks for the tip! I'll check them out! And you're very welcome! Really glad you're enjoying the videos! :)
I’m building a farm in the same spot thanks for the inspiration 🙌
You’re very welcome mate! Great minds eh? Haha :)
Appreciate you , thanks for your time and awesome content as always!
You’re very welcome mate, thankyou so much for the kind words! Hugely appreciated! :)
Another great vid! I didn't know about changing the helper to my character, thanks! Another example of why you and scoft are my "go to" guys
Hey Tinman! Yeh it's one of those 'little' things that help with the continuation of the vids, being able to appear like it's me and make a cinematic at the same time! Love it! :)
If playing a 4k, 30fps is acceptable. You can get away with lower fps at higher resolutions (as long as it's stable). Great episode mate
@@MarkThor_11 hey buddy! I have a 4k 60hz monitor so 60fps is the must have target. Thankfully I’ve managed to achieve that now though, and the gameplay is utterly perfect! :)
Also great 👍 keep up the great job
I spent the time aswell
Try 3.5 on all three
And run 2k at 90
Also the park job was mint 😂 that time
Thanks buddy! Haha yeh gotta be parked straight, none of this 'abandoned' look when I park haha! :)
@@Farmer-Sim too funy

Just why I’m not jumping into FS25 yet.
got it right now, but with oats
Must be field 77 I had that happen on that field as well…
I’ve just learned that it may be because I had the straw swaths on, and that they now count toward the contract possibly. Had they been turned off it might’ve completed! Must test this one! :)
Did you have the straw swath turned on mate? I’ve just learned from a comment that the straw may ‘count’ towards the total! Must try n test this! :)
Well done, buddy I didn't wanna say anything lol😅 it looked great anyways bud
Thanks mate appreciate that! :)
