There are two different hedges I have found, the cuttable with collisions and a taller hedge that doesn't have a collision. Unfortunately I haven't found a way to get rid of the taller hedges (in-game action that is). Would like to see them removable as well, or gates in the stone walls by the animal pens, example being to access fields like 99 without having to either sell the sheep pen or drive through the hedges. Besides that minor issue I am having quite an enjoyable time with Maypole and looking forward to future updates! And thank you Farmer Klein for the map tours and reviews!
Thank you much appreciated, version 2 is available on Kingmods, it adds gates to all animal pastures with pastures/fields with all sheds in farmyard been able to be demolished. There is a new version currently in the works which will make all hedges cuttable and a few fixes.
Thanks for the review, just one thing you might want to check on these map reviews is to see if buildings/ roads etc... have snow/ correct season mask. Nothing worse than getting going on one of these maps and then finding out there is no seasons mask applied correctly.
Really like the layout of this map, shame the old Sheds are not removable, so could be replaced at a later date. But they are more suited to this style of UK Farm than anything I have seen to date. Think mod author has done a good job, and loved the Animal pens, will definitely download this for a closer look. As always FK great video thanks.
Riverside was a great map with hedges. Not too big, not too small. This map looks good. I've always wanted to use small equipment relevant to the area.
I like this map, but I don't like messing with horses. As long as I can sell the horses and replace their areas with greenhouses and/or vineyards, I'm good. I have played on it before...and yes..you are correct...clearances are TIGHT! LOL
I really like the older shed styles. And this map seems to have them spaced out enough to be able to maneuver. I've seen another map that uses them (and hedges... and a gazillion trees), and it is almost impossible to use even smaller trailers.
This is one of the best maps I have played on fs22 so far. It is comprehensive and has plenty of options for farms well laid out and stocked with sheds and animal pens. Of all the maps I have tried since fs22 release it seems to be the lest bug ridden. Given that it has not gone through the ‘giants’ testing which appears to be a joke given the bugs in maps then ‘test’. There are plenty of fields of good size, there are ‘natural’ fields that can be joined after removale of trees and hedges. By the way get a tree reveal mod it will make life a lot simpler for hedge and tree removal. I think it beats coals den, Riverview, greenlands hands down. I have put in a lot of hours on them all but keep coming back to this one as it is the most stable, no bugs left after the few minor ones where fixed in last minor release. And for a normal size map it feels a lot larger. Highly recommend this map .
I think I still like Riverview a bit better than this...but they are similar as I think it is the same maker. I do like the number of farms this one has, even playing single player it makes the world feel lived in having more farms. I also really liked how so many animal pens we huge and held animals in all the area allotted. You did that one map a while back where the horses just hung out by the food troughs, and that really felt immersion breaking. Both maps look great, and if he let me sell or just delete the metal buildings, they would be epic maps that look very challenging as you will be limited by roads and hedges...but that can make farming more rewarding in the long run.
Nice map as for Irish not very Irish looking to me and I'm from Ireland so looks wise not great it's also very tree heavy and you have to spend 90% in cab to
those husbandries with expanded pens, is that doable with the building menu? just delete the fence it comes with and place new fences that enclose the pasture? or does that only work when map editing?
I worked out why there’s no sell point for woodchips, it’s because it’s not a fill type I think it’s a mistake because if you try chipping a tree you get nothing.
I getting some deja-vu with this video.... just thinking esp at 39:00> you have to watch what size equipment you using otherwise you going to have issues with stuff not fitting at all or you going to damage it so much it needs repairs before use
Hi farmer Klein , another good map review , but you clarify something . Yesterday in your mod piracy video you never mentioned king mods as a reputable mod site but this isn’t the first mod that you have reviewed on here . Is King mods a reputable site ?
They pass the litmus test of linking Giants mod hub mods back to the modhub for download. Kingmods tries their best to provide you a link back to the original mod hosters download. Kingmods does not host mods they simply like you to where the author has put the download. In this case the mod authors googledrive. I have been very careful not to name sites as in the past sites that used to be respectful of modders seemingly change their ways once they develop a reputation of being respectable.
@@Alien_Jim They wasn't taken from Mercury farms, they was taken from a mod site where they was uploaded as placeables and listed as use as you please. I will always ask for permission for anything i use before i use it.
@@Alien_Jim I can't find the link as it was early in FS19 when i got the hedges (around March 2020 when i got those hedges). I will replace them seeing as the hedges was uploaded without your permission.
i tried to like this map, as an American i hated the small farms that looked like they tried to fit too much . i hate the hedges and stone fences every where (i know a lot of Europeans like them). i really want to like this map, maybe they will fix some of the farms
Not all maps will suit everyone. You can cut the hedges to expand things as you see fit but again if your not feeling it then dont force it. Plenty of other maps will come.
This is reality in th UK, it is a small land mass. There are a few big farms think the biggest is about 22,000 Acres but don't think there is that many of them, average is around 210 Acres. So space is at a premium but it does focus the mind when maneuvering.
A fairly unremarkable map, that would certainly cater to console multiplayers due to a large field count with small/medium fields only - several farms and large animals per pen will ensure lots of start location options, and no player is squeezed out of animals. However, kudos for FS22's first removeable hedges, so single players can certainly merge fields. A lonely map though, I didn't notice any AI traffic - seems more of a UK map, nothing really makes it stand out as a US map, but clearly meant for multiplayer as there are no wasted decorative places that single player maps can easily afford.
@@craigkirkpatrick8112 Ah, thanks for the correction. I thought it was a bit more trivial than that. Well that stinks for console players. Still, a pretty good MP map.
Not sure why you would hold on to useless maps but how playable the map is will depend on what your criteria is. Different people will find different maps playable vs unplayable based on their own preferences. Some will say any map with hedges that have collisions is unplayable while others will say a map with hedges that do not have collisions is unplayable, etc.
I dont follow at all. 'will it play the basic game'? drop this map into your mod folder. start a new save and select it from the map selection screen and then load it up just like this video shows.
I agre with you on multy player on this map but looking for more single player in farm sim 22 . It seams like farm sim 22 is set up for multy player as aposed to single players woud like to see more slngle players Mode i just like to play single mode . r
I started in FS11, FS11 maps was bland tbh it was in FS15 when maps really started coming into there own, this map looks nothing like an FS11 map and uses a custom DEM file with farmland, tree etc based closely to the area the map was built from with enough changes to make it different and not representative of that area. But constructive feedback would be nice other than this map is rubbish gives modder something to consider looking into and maybe improving their own work.
@@olliebob8359 Maybe, i personally think maps really began to look and feel better from FS15 onwards. There certainly was some nice maps in FS13 though and a few of them was ported to FS15 and later games.

Nice job, thanks for all the detail!
Thank you for letting me know about the hedges, they were driving me nuts
👍. This map is going to make it interesting for the ai travelling to fields. Roads narrow and everything is close to the roads.
I like this map, but I don't like messing with horses. As long as I can sell the horses and replace their areas with greenhouses and/or vineyards, I'm good.

Interesting map.Llke the hedges and small equipment challenge it brings.Great Map tour as alway FK.
Glad you enjoyed it
Is this by far the best map so far for fs22. I have more hours on this map in one day then any other map since launch.
True
If there any AI in this map, cant get helper or courseplay to work. Nice video mate.

Hedges don't bother me until I hit a street lamp post. Overall cool map though
Finally a farming map review…
Nice big map good detail
This map reminds me of Lawfolds Aberdeenshire from FS19 and 17.
Least theres no traffic driving around on the wrong side of the road ha
V2 is out and farm with equipment is thier in new farmer.
Will the hedges behave like trees and explode randomly when you cut them ?
Nice map as for Irish not very Irish looking to me and I'm from Ireland so looks wise not great it's also very tree heavy and you have to spend 90% in cab to
those husbandries with expanded pens, is that doable with the building menu? just delete the fence it comes with and place new fences that enclose the pasture? or does that only work when map editing?
no it requires the editor to change the nav mesh of the animals
@@FarmerKlein Thanks!
I worked out why there’s no sell point for woodchips, it’s because it’s not a fill type I think it’s a mistake because if you try chipping a tree you get nothing.
Does anyone know why I have no animal triggers or triggers to open any of the cattle doors ect!??
you have to buy the land as I said in the video
I getting some deja-vu with this video.... just thinking esp at 39:00> you have to watch what size equipment you using otherwise you going to have issues with stuff not fitting at all or you going to damage it so much it needs repairs before use
Maybe you played it in 19. But ya its the typical UK style narrow lanes with hedges. Does not fit everyone but nothing really does
Damage is based on time used not equipment abuse. Try running a tractor into a tree, it adds zero damage.

Hi. Thx for this vid. Is this map for pc?
Yes, its why on the thumbnail there is a PC with a circle around it.
@@FarmerKlein K. Thx.
Please show the minimap when you are doing the flyarounds
Maybe I normally do and didn't think about ut.here. hard to tell huh.
You're the best
I wonder where the cuttable hedges were taken from without permission!!
That I do not know.... But it would be disappointing... :(
@@FarmerKlein I have looked and they are the hedges from Mercury Farms
@@Alien_Jim They wasn't taken from Mercury farms, they was taken from a mod site where they was uploaded as placeables and listed as use as you please. I will always ask for permission for anything i use before i use it.
@@CavalierRoy Can you please send me the link to the site that has my work taken from Mercury Farms map?

Console cant have it because of the script for animal pens
@@craigkirkpatrick8112 Ah, thanks for the correction. I thought it was a bit more trivial than that. Well that stinks for console players. Still, a pretty good MP map.
It is good for multy player but not so good for single player people
Is it playable or just pretty!!!! Is it functionable or pretty!!!! I have 30 useless maps for FS22 that are Pretty!!!!

Map is way too clustered, and those trees and bushing in-between the fields would get super annoying to play with.
Then remove them 🤷♂️
the french buildings would annoy me
