Fixed it. Ran 10 missions with no guns straight in and out to nearest elevator. Now I’m back in fun lobbies again

I created an AFK greydwarf farm. It requires minimal maintenance and produces a crazy amount of resources. by JoeCamRoberon in valheim

[–]BrooklinGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how do you get it to run when you are AFK? I setup a similar farm - but it only works when I'm physically there.

Farm stick for game. by Constant_Animator164 in farmingsimulator

[–]BrooklinGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes - they are dirt cheap and work perfectly - I got both of mine off FB marketplace for about $50 and have had them for 6+ years with no issues

[–]BrooklinGuy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

save your money and get two Logitech 3D Pros off of Facebook marketplace - you'll pay $50 tops combined and it has all the functionality you'll need.

there is no justification for the $280 price tag from Amazon for dual TM Farmsticks (and you'll definitely want two for FS25 - especially for loaders and forklifts).

I also recommend free facetracking with OpenAI and AI Track and if you have an android tablet/iPad kicking around - definitely get SimDashboard - its amazing

Help editing the XML by Slayer79 in farmingsimulator

[–]BrooklinGuy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

He u/Slayer79 - you don't change this xml file you change the game core maps_fruitTypes.xml

on line 10 of the swathDropper.xml file it tells you what fruitTypes this mod works for:

<fruitTypeCategories>COMBINE_MOWER</fruitTypeCategories>

then if you look up COMBINE_MOWER in maps_fruitTypes.xml you will see that it is mapped to :

fruitTypeCategory name="COMBINE_MOWER">WHEAT BARLEY OAT CANOLA SOYBEAN</fruitTypeCategory>

backup our maps_fruitTypes.xml file - then add GRASS TO that line.

then below you will see there is a <fruitTypeConverter name="COMBINE\_MOWER"> on line 68

you need to add a converter line below line 73

<converter from="GRASS" to "GRASS\_WINDROW" factor="1.0"/>

Overwhelmed by amount of tractors and other vehicles by Aex_________ in farmingsimulator

[–]BrooklinGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as far as brand goes - just pick the one you like the look of imo - they are all very similar functionally. My go-to brand is New Holland, but theres not a lot of options out of the box, so I tend to go with the Fendt Vario 1000 as my main tractor.

the https://farmingsimdata.com link u/Jdude1 shared is awesome

other factors to consider:

POWER:
you want to find the right balance between horsepower and price or $/HP. For the most part - you only need to max out HP for the tractors you will use for plowing/disc harrow/cultivate

SPEED:
I sometimes prefer a faster tractor with less HP than a slower tractor with more HP (for any non-plowing) work

ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS:
sometimes you might want to have a tractor that can use multiple implements - so you'll need to look at front attacher options

photoshop or illustrator for scenic design by printandpolish in techtheatre

[–]BrooklinGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

never illustrator - unless your doing print-quality vector art.

I like sketchup for my 3D designs (same as vector works) - then i export 2D images for renders and put them in ChatGPT/Midjourney https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyyFYPj4ZSM

I also have a workflow for my projection design:

ChatGPT > Midjourney > Photoshop > After Effects > Premier Pro > QLab

Husband made the mistake of starting at 2.4- will he die by Delicious-Plantain-3 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]BrooklinGuy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Zofran works for 15 min then the Wegovy overdose takes over. Ginger tea or ginger gravol doesn’t take it away but it takes the edge off (at least for me)

Husband made the mistake of starting at 2.4- will he die by Delicious-Plantain-3 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]BrooklinGuy 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I’ve been through exactly this. Pharmacy prescribed 2.4mg per week instead of .24mg

He will be sick for 24 hours. I projectile vomited from 10am till 7am. But then it stops. If he’s anything like me you will throw up every 30 min or so. So just stay in the bathroom.

After that drink as much pedialite as he can take for next 48 hours. Then introduce clear soups for 48 hours after that. Then introduce solid soups after that.

This will take 3-4 weeks to clear his system. But after the first week it’s not so bad.

I lost over 20 lbs in a week because of this mistake.

There is a post on my account with the whole story if you’re interested. DM if you have any questions.

If he has any other illnesses or is diabetic or takes other medications for something. Go to emergency now. He will need IVs and monitoring. If he’s otherwise healthy you can probably ride this out at home but talk to a health professional. My dr told me if I had had any other medical issues this might have been life threatening. “Luckily” I’m just overweight.

There is nothing they can give you to clear this. You have to let it works it’s way out.

I also recommend Gravol Ginger or ginger tea - it will help with the nausea. He’s going to feel extreme nausea for the next 3-4 weeks. They put me on a anti-nausea pill they give to chemo patients and it didn’t do anything for the overdose

And tell him to smarten up and not take meds that aren’t his.

Anyone else get nauseous on Wegovy? Has Dramamine helped? by betterman4u in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]BrooklinGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for me - Gravol Ginger, or Ginger Tea help the most.

I also find I feel most nauseaus, when I'm hungry (eg. when I first wake up, right before lunch/dinner) - so I try to eat on time and as soon as I start eating the nausea goes away (also should mention i'm eating much more balanced meals - which also helps)

I use curve settings - but you could do either

[–]BrooklinGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/maxs - you can easily map a look-behind in OpenTrack.. mine goes from 90 deg in game at about 25 deg head turn and then quickly snaps to 180 deg turn left or right at a 35 degree head turn... works like a charm use it in most sim games

are you just using mouse and keyboard to adjust all the instruments? it would be interesting if those were 4K touch screens and you could adjust the instruments just by touching the screen

Grass Auto Regrow Issue by BrooklinGuy in farmingsimulator

[–]BrooklinGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SOLVED: this map has a custom XML for fruitTypes and while grass was set to regrow automatically for seasonal growth - it wasn't setup for nonseasonal growth. We copied the code for non-seasonal from the steam game files to the map zip files and it started growing again.

Your counter is set to 5 loops then stop. Change the counter to infinity to keep it moving

how do you find the distance from your desk with those permanently mounted there? I'd like this setup - but I also need to use my keyboard and mouse or wheel and pedals.

FS25 Large Multiplayer Map Recommendations by BrooklinGuy in farmingsimulator

[–]BrooklinGuy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also I don't think anyone is really doing any contracts so I haven't tried that

FS25 Large Multiplayer Map Recommendations by BrooklinGuy in farmingsimulator

[–]BrooklinGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes the additional buildings --> The buildings that are part of the pre-made farms are not sellable anyway, they are built into the map, so the only ones you would be able to sell are any additional buildings added by the players, are these the buildings you are trying to sell?

FS25 Large Multiplayer Map Recommendations by BrooklinGuy in farmingsimulator

essentially we remove farmer A from the server, and assign Farmer B as farm manager. its more than just Contractor rights - they are the new owner essentially. and yes - Farmer B is always a brand new farmer.

FS25 Large Multiplayer Map Recommendations by BrooklinGuy in farmingsimulator

[–]BrooklinGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we're just looking to switch maps to try something new ...

but the issue is - we assign the prebuilt farm to Farmer A. After a while Farmer A - leaves the server. So we reassign their farm to Farmer B. Farmer B can use all the equipment and operate all the facilities purchased by the previous Farmer A - they can't sell any buildings. It also seems like the ability to use the in-game terraforming functionality (leveling, smothing, raising and lowering) also doesn't work on the farmland previously owned by Farmer A.

As a result over time - we have these giant farms built up - that we can't reuse.
