Trailer and loader capacity are best measured in volume rather than weight as each crop has different density. We usually refer to a trailer's tonnage but this technically is how much a trailer full of water would weigh. Grain and silage are denser than water I believe. In the UK, a ton is what most farmers are used to.
If you work in kg or tons, one thing will be a lot heavier than others. For example grass and water. Grass is obviously lighter than water. That's why it's measured in liters.
Swap the mega for a Claas lexion 670tt as its a good mod, would also help keep soil compaction down and helps in sticky situations, the real machine is the latest version, and the largest 6 straw walker claas combine that they make. For realism stick with a smallish size header, either 7.5 or 9 meter version!
speaking on the liters vs other weight measurements, in america when refering to how much somthing like a trailer holds, we work in terms of bushels in agriculture.
I think certain things like grain/silage/chaff etc are measured in litres because if it got wet it would weigh more so wouldn't be a true measurement of the produce. Might be wrong on that but it's how I uderstand it.
They work in liters because the weight of grass and wheat for example is different, so if you work in kilogram the capacity is different if you use it with wheat or grass (or something else, these are just examples). In real life they also work in liters (here in Holland).
Dagger do u think in fs17 u should be able to fill ur trailer to what ever level you want or they could make it look like a bigger load but still only fill it to 100%
Thinking about heavy trailers, a young and inexperienced tractor driver allowed his trailer to push him into a bridge parapet cleaning it out and dumping part of his load of round straw bales in the river below. It's going to cost thousands to repair the bridge which is on a main road.
I think fs uses liters because for example 8.000 liters of silage isn't 8.000 kilos plus you can't say this trailer holds 8 tons because it depends on what you are loading into it
Daggerwin I have subscribed I think you should do a map where it is a bit run down and use smaller tractors and not go for massive goals and do it realistic
I have a question about soil the soil mod since I started playing knaveswell farm. does the soil information change as u drive over different fields or does the information stay the same for all the fields
It actually shows only about 10x10 meters (or cca20x20m, can't be sure) from where you are standing. Press LALT+I to cycle through different HUD modes, so you'll see. Best way is to watch the percentages and walk over to the patch of weeds in the field, you'll see a change there. Hope it helps.
Daggerwin I have one recomndation for you I'm a real farmer so I know any vehicle or tractor going under the speed limit has to use four way flashers and we all know tractors almost always go under the speed limit so please use your four way flashers it would make the videos even more realistic.
Nice vid dagger, quick comment coz I have 1% battery left. Great vid keep it up the farm is changing now, could I please get a link for the loader and mods used in this episode please? 👍🏼
Thornton Farm News Report Farmer Daggerwin (farmer at Thornton farm) was seen wildly racing around in his Case loader, he was later arrested for speeding on a quad with no hands on the handlebars. He was sentenced to 3 months in prison
I like it daggerwin keep up good work it sound to me that u can do this in real life doing farming because u too good at doing this farming simulator 15
Daggerwin, do you have any tip for Farm Simulator 15, for beginners like me any would be great. Also I play on Xbox one I have no mods or dlc. Love your vids, kept up the great work
***** Thanks Its up to date, i have all the required mods and i didn't have the filters turned off. I'll do that. However, since I do have more mods than what the server requires, can that prevent me from joining?
i worked it out u got that loader and buckrake for 6000 altogether wow thats cheep :P + you should by that 7930 john deere pls it would be a really nice tractor to have on the farm
