Farm Simulator

My new fun project is Farm Simulator 19. The software is installed and I waiting for the game controllers to arrive tomorrow.

Fun Time!

My highlight of the day was running over (mangling) and through a STOP sign with my tractor.

I'm going to post some of my favorite screen shots from the Farm Simulator forum and other resources I find. Developers are actually selling mods to add to your farm(s).

Note: Some of the screenshots are from earlier versions of Farm Simulator and don't show the resolution 19 offers.

I've never thought I'd ever see you buying gaming gear and actually playing computer games!

Yeah, men remain big children for life...

Game?

This is a high quality agricultural / heavy equipment simulator and SDK.

Okay, I'm having a bit of fun as well.

I ran out of USB ports hooking up my game controllers so I got a 7 port USB hub.

Here is Windows 10 capture mode of my newbie tractor rig.

The game controller I bought is specifically created for this simulator and is plug & play.

Now isn't that cool, man?

Blows me away. That's easy to do as I never have been a gamer. The last time I spent any time with a game was Doom II.

I'm done chasing bean counters.

Farm Simulator 21 Sneek Peek

I was thinking that if I'm going to model real farms, I need to view them as if they were Farm Simulator maps. So I picked up a drone.

I paid just under $170  (free ship) for the drone and an extra battery/charger. ($119 for the drone - $46 extra battery)
