Farming Simulator - spec me a "challenge" in game

da_mic_1530 · 25 Oct 2012 at 20:16

Bit of a weird request I know,

Background:

The Wife's marketing company are considering setting up a booth "simulator" for some farmer folk to have a competition on.

Using the game / maps they need a quick challenge for each customer to try, think along the lines of if it was a standard racing game it would be a hot lap challenge.

Is there a mod for a racetrack, or a quick harvest challenge etc?

Any advice would be fantastic!

Cheers

^^ Something like this would probably work best if you want to keep it short and quick

2013 is great.

I would say a tractor and trailer reversing competition would be best and easiest to pick a winner.

Cheers for the sensible reply, although to be fair the thread was asking for it

It's a stupidly addictive game though, me and a mate have put in 22 hours on multiplayer already!

Are they finaly going to give us one?

We have actually been asking for one on the forums, as we both have terrible upload speeds so get some lag if either of us hosts, but we have several gaming servers in datacenters at our disposal but cant currently use them for this game

Sorry to hijack the thread but do any of you know if there is a map editor? Or even better someway of importing a real landscape into the game?

I would be tempted to get this for my brother and his kids. It would be awesome to try and create/copy his farm.

Can't answer your question directly, but this is definately the place to go to find out:

The mod comunnity for farm sim is huge, modding tutorials, hundreds of daily uploads, request a mod, great forums...

Let fly and try your luck.

Burger Run Challenge: Run over 10 cows with a combine harvester in the quickest time?

I have no idea if this is possible, not having played the game...

Yes, the GIANTS Editor is included with the game, it in combination with 3d editing software and image editing software is used to create maps/vehicles/implements.

Currently working on a 2km section of our farm!
