good day guys and gals

I have been tinkering with giants editor since fs 13 but still never full understood how to generate a map i have what i feel an interesting map concept that would be both challenging and fun but i have like Zero experince with 3D rendering and what i do know is from hours of tinkering but still not getting anywhere with it kind of a hard program to self teach. i have bought the video tutorial but like the version for 2013 it kind of seems like a waste which it had more details for start to finish with a map
any help would be awsome

Hi well since you want to make a farming simulator 15 map there are some thing you need to do to prepare a map file first go to C:\Program Files\Farming Simulator 2015\sdk

in the sdk file copy the modMapSDK and paste it on your desktop the extract it. delete the zip version that you put on your desktop and click on the extracted version once inside click on map folder delete export_with_files_map01_i3d_here.txt then open giants editor 6.0.2 then click open on the file menu then flow this path C:\Program Files\Farming Simulator 2015\data\maps



open ether map01 or map02 depending on which one you want to edit win you open the one you want click file tab again and click export all with files a box will open select the path as Desktop\modMapSDK\map


once it has exported close the editor make sure not to save any changes then go to your desk top and get on modmapsdk file then get in the map file in there click map01 open it with the editor and there the ModMap :)



win done with the changes save the map and make the modmapsdk file on your desktop a zip and the rest is up to you :) just let me no if you need any more help :)

O if you just want a flat map to start with I can send yo a link mabe you and me and start a mod site :) please reply if this is of any help :)

hey thanks for the reply but i am not sure i understand what you mean by click on map folder delete export_with_files_map01_i3d_here.txt then open giants editor 6.0.2 then click open on the file menu then flow this path C:\Program Files\Farming Simulator 2015\data\maps

the idea i had is actually what my grand father went through 60 years ago when he started his farm he actually had to go through and clear the land that he wanted as a farm since we now have the abbility to cut down trees i figured this is possible except for the fact that giants editor is kicking my a$$ lol
