Drive control was one of the mods I really missed. I can't drive without shuttle now. Upsidedown is good at making it easy to have just what you want in Drive Control. Now I'm waiting for his GPS mod. Speedplayer is a nice mod to have. Money cheat is a must when making story videos. Thanks mate Mike
Reefy1952 Hi Mike, yes upside down is on it! I hope he adds the parking break back in dc. the next 2 mods I'm waiting on is Follow Me and auto combine. I wish Giants made reset point at main farm. Thanks for watching my friend :)
wade ster Thank you for watching wade and for the comment :) Sorry to respond so late. For some reason I didn't get a notification. You can turn off shuttle by holding space bar and left control down. I will probably shut it off in xml however because it's already starting to get on my nerves, lol.
I just came across your channel, very nice video, nice and clear, you gain a new sub here. One mod i am looking for that I used all the time in FS15 was Autocombine, by chance have you come across a copy for FS17 ? Cheers.
John McWade I have been waiting for auto combine myself! Also Follow Me mod. Maybe we should all message the original modder and tell him. Thanks very much for watching and welcome! :)
Bubba Shinholster Hello Bubba, love your name. I don't know why your engine starts by itself. That sounds like a problem with the vehicle itself. Are you using a mod?
Hi Eustace, Thank you very much for the tip on how to turn OFF the Shuttle Control on the Drive Control Mod. I have been so bloody frustrated with this part of the mod for so long having to press the space bar on all the vehicles every time I rebooted the game. I did not realize just how easy this was until I saw your tutorial. Thank you mate that was very good of you, One other point, when I use the auto load trailers to transport wool bales or wood for pallets, most of the time I seem to loose part of the load (it just disappears - a pallet of wool or a pallet of wood). Sometimes I come across it in a field just laying there. WTFs going off, and can I stop it - any ideas pal? All the best for the future, and keep up the good work!!!....
Jumbo747 Hi there Jumbo, thanks so much for watching and for the compliment 😊! Regarding the auto load feature issue I suspect that you have a conflict with another mod or it's a problem with the mod itself. Remember maps are mods too. I only use 2 auto load mods for bales. 1. Joskin bale trailers by blacksheep modding 2. Fleigl bale trailer. Both are available in the game mod hub. I hope this helps mate and thank you very much once again :)
Gee Thanks Eustace, Those comments are gratefully accepted, and I will try out the Joskin and Fleigl bale trailers as you advise. Thanks again mate!!....
can someone walk me thro how too download mods off line. i have the game off steam. i tried downloading mods. but they are in a zipzip program that it said i had to download hoping it wasn't a scam or vir. but still wasn't add to the game.
Troy Passow Hi Troy, you put the zip folder in your mod folder. Don't unzip. Your mod folder is in Documents >my games>FarmingSimulator17. The only time you unzip a mod folder is when you download a pack of mods. Sometimes they put multiple mod zips inside one zip folder. you can click on it and look inside. If you see other zips inside the folder then extract it. If you have windows 10 you have a built in file extractor. Right click on the folder and select "extract all" There is another type of file modders use called. rar files. It looks like a white square ⬜. Those you always extract and zip files will be in it. I recommend using aprogram called 7zip for rar files. Never open a mod folder with the extension "html" on the end. It should say. zip. html are viruses. Hope that helps 😊
Sgt Tye one thing to be aware of with FS17 if you reset a trailer or combine with anything in it such as grain you will lose the grain. that wasn't the case in fs15 but it seems that's how it is now in 17. So be careful driving, lol.
OK I got a question for you now.... On goldcrest Valley you can get the 100 gold nuggets and get 1 mil in cash. What (if any) do you collect on Sosnovka so you can get 1 mil? Do you know?
I think a lot of people have this problem, when you drive on a vehicle, it starts to stuttering after about 30 km/h, i don't know how to explain more of this, but maybe somebody will have this also and someone know how to fix it
Awesome showcase, I enjoyed it. Narration is spot on, nice voice to listen to and good info. Not that I didn't know about these mods, I actually use them myself, but I like to see what other people think about them. Anyway I got a tip for you, actually two tips. If you want to disable shutle mode for a short while you can press and hold space for a few seconds and it's disabled. Do the same to enable it again. The GPS mod you so desire is up and running right now, CoursePlay (if you're looking for it) won't be for now. There is a version out there for FS17, but it's fake and extremely buggy, be aware of this. Thanks for the video... Subbed and liked...
+Marcel Games Thank you very very much for your wonderful comment Marcel. Thank you also for taking the time to watch :) Regarding GPS and Course play I have never used them. I find GPS not very useful for me personally because I generally don't work in large, vast fields. Course play is a very handy mod but it always seemed rather complicated to use and from what I have seen a bit buggy. The mod I was referring to was Auto Combine. I hope also that the "Follow Me" mod comes out soon :) Thank you very much for subscribing and I hope you will be with us for a long time.
The importance of 'carefully' listening. I thought you menth gps mod. The "follow me" mod is the only one I am using right now. It's very useful in single play. And yes, Course play was awesome, yet a bit buggy in FS15. Let's hope the "new" creators can make it stable for FS17.
Marcel Games I am not one to point fingers regarding "Careful Listening ", just ask my wife, lol. As for Course Play, I agree with you. I hope it's a bit more user friendly and less buggy. To be fair, I think some of the biggest bugs can happen with script mods depending on what modded vehicles and maps you use. There's always conflicts at some point so I can't fault Course Play entirely. It's a very complex piece of script.
just a note: the ~ (tilde key) is in a different place on UK and a few other country keyboards. a very good descriptive informative video oh, it took me 6 hours to find out where, and how, the heck you 'install' these, or any, mod ... just sayin' ;-)
mucks Hey Mucks, sorry it took you so long to sort all that out. Next time please message me and I will certainly help you. I know how frustrating that can be and I hate to see you go crazy. Thanks very much for watching and for your comment :)
oh, it wasn't you but just after I got the game, at release, that I was confused as to where one "installs" the mods ... being old school I was looking under the 'game' directory itself, wasn't til someone on a live stream told me, "oh, you just go to 'MyDocument' and FS17's folder and plonk them in there", oh, AND, no need to unzip ... FS17 is the only game I know that can read .zip files off the bat. Kadoos to them for that. I only have the two pre-order tracktours, GPS and a trailer pack ... for now. As for "installing" one of them really good maps ... haven't a clue there. maybe you can do a couple of ... how to, especially for Mucks videos ... in baby steps. :))
mucks LOL, I am happy to do a Just for the Muck of it video :D You message me what you need to know and I will show. By the way bud, join our forum. You can get a lot of good tips and advise there and you can pm me there too. 3dudesgn.com :)
ironfist452 hi Iron, thanks for watching. To answer your question, not everyone is comfortable editing xml. Also the money mods allow an additional flexibility to add money without closing game. It's more convenient. I did an xml tutorial for those who want to learn that method too :)
PSA: DONT USE MONEY CHEAT IN YOUR SERIOUS GAME! better to not use it at all unless you are making videos like this and need to have all the equipment to do a tutorial. money cheat zaps all the fun out of the game instantly because you already did everything, theres no goals or challenges left.
A.J. Burtchett I believe it's right shift button. You can disable it permanently in drive control config xml too. Drive control config xml is located in your Farming Simulator 2017 folder. it should be right under game xml
Drive control was one of the mods I really missed. I can't drive without shuttle now.
Upsidedown is good at making it easy to have just what you want in Drive Control. Now I'm waiting for his GPS mod.
Speedplayer is a nice mod to have.
Money cheat is a must when making story videos.
Thanks mate

Awesome video! And I miss your forum. 😉
You can also toggle shuttle on/off using a key command to whatever you want in the options menu in game...among other things.
thanks for watching wade and for the tip :)
Default key for toggling shuttle control (on/off) in-game is holding down the spacebar for a few seconds.
+Edwin Konzolo Hi Edward, It's actually left CTRL+Space bar :)

TJ FS17
You're very welcome TJ and thanks very much for watching and for the comment :)
Simply superb!
Thanks very much mate 😊👍
How do I turn off and on the engine I know it's the enter key but when I get in the truck it turns on by itself
Bubba Shinholster
Hello Bubba, love your name. I don't know why your engine starts by itself. That sounds like a problem with the vehicle itself. Are you using a mod?
great showcase bud thank you

one thing Farming Simulator 17 should do is cotton because it's very popular where I'm at

That sounds like a fun crop. Maybe the modding community will do something with cotton :)

i have another question how to you turn off the slow gas
A.J. Burtchett I believe it's right shift button. You can disable it permanently in drive control config xml too. Drive control config xml is located in your Farming Simulator 2017 folder. it should be right under game xml
ok thank you

let me know if you have any further problem. I can always make a video about it :)
Eustace Pharmer if u could make a video about how to work the hole drive control mod that would be awesome

I can do that no problem :)
