Version 1.4.0.1 - Seasons19, Baby!
(Updated August 3, 2019) One of the best Farming Simulator maps ever, has gotten another FS19 update. Most importantly, it’s now fully compatible with Seasons 19. And you don't need to wait for a GEO mod. It's as simple as plug-and-play.
That's farfrom the only change. Here are more of the good stuff from the changelog:
- Scripts, clip distances, and terrain textures are revamped. The result is better performance.
- Various markers for loading and unloading can now be turned off in the Game menu.
- AI traffic is adjusted. Animal scripts are improved. Floor slabs are removed from all courtyards, while the Deco-grass will be removed in landscaping mode or by plowing.
- You can make bales from alfalfa, which can be sold (no mod required.)
This isjust the tip of the iceberg. There have been so many improvements to the mapit's impossible to name them all. Best you can do is to download it and try itfor yourself.
Plane, Not Train
There's aflyable plane in the Kandelin map. Well, kinda flyable. You can set the speed,but you cannot control stuff like pitch and roll. Still, it's a charmingfeature that serves you a birds-eye view of your fields and their crops.
Guide to Kandelin
First, download the mod before unpacking it. Inside the folder, you'll find the map file (FS_19Kandelin.zip
) that needs to be copied over to your mods folder.
You'llalso find guides to the map, both in German and English. We hope more map makers will dothe same.
Version 1.4.0.2 - SeasonsFixes, GlobalCompany
(UpdatedAugust 25, 2019)Here's most likely the last update to the Kandelin map. A lot of minor bugshave been fixed, like floating trees, and triggers that didn't work in previousversions (the pig food trigger at the pigpen, for example.)
Just asimportant is the inclusion of the GlobalCompany script. Most, if not all,production on the map now uses that script. Just make sure that you have the GCscript installed and activated before entering the newversion of the map.
Problematic Triggers
There are some problems with the player triggers for all the production objects that use the GlobalCompany script on this map.
Thanks to Totenfarmer, for sharing a guide on how to fix the problem. You can read how to do it over at the official Farming Simulator forum.
New Gamesave Required
There arealso updates to how the map handles Seasons 19, like making some non-workingice covers work again.
This updatewill most likely require a fresh gamesave.

How to Download
There's only one bummer about the Kandelin map. The modder has chosen Uploaded for the mod file. And if you’re not an Uploaded subscriber, it will take forever to download.
(We hope modders stop using Uploaded in favor of more user-friendly hosts.)
Note: You need to unpack the mod files, once you’ve gotten it to your computer. You’ll find the required files inside the unpacked folder together with handy guides, both in English and German.
