FS25 Import Placeables This is an updated version of the FS22 script which allowed the import into a map of all the placeable items in the placeables.xml (placeables.xml can be from a save game or another map) Original available here https://farmerboysmodding.com/index.php?/topic/2480-import-placeables/ With the changes made to placeables in FS25 the script will only import placeables that are not already in the map i.e. those who have not been preplaced using the placeables.xml <placeable isPreplaced="true" , any subsequent changes made to position/user attribute etc will still have to entered manually in the placeables.xml or by the Plac…

FS25 Spline Modifier Script (Updated) This script allows for the creation of several types of duplicate modified spline’s from a single or multiple splines It will also reverse the direction of the duplicate spline(s) align them to the terrain and join several splines together to form one new spline depending on the option(s) selected. Whilst individual splines can be selected and converted, if multiple splines are selected they must all be in the same direction starting from the first splines ‘S’ cv, this is also a prerequisite when joining splines using the Combine Splines option. Installation Unzip the FS25_splineModifier_Updated.zip (av…

Create Duplicate Offset Splines This is an updated version of an original script by TracMax all I have done is added a simple panel UI and allowed the creation of a new folder (parallelSplines) in the same place as the map.i3d for the newly created i3d and txt files. As always copyright remains with the originator. One use of the script is when creating roads/lanes etc as it creates a new spline at the chosen distance parallel to the original so making it easy to add fences/power lines etc aligned to the roadway/lane and also for traffic/pedestrian splines The updated FS25 version of this script is available here -- https://farmerboysmodding.…

Hello everybody, with the following code we are able grab the farmlands infoLayer and paint on it. local infoLayer = getInfoLayerFromTerrain(terrainNode, "farmlands") if infoLayer == nil or infoLayer == 0 then printError(" Could not find farmlands info layer") return end As I figured out how to use Procedural Placement (PP) on a 16x map without crashing the GE, I wonder if it is possible to also paint fields (or anything else) to the PP masks with code. I wasn't able to find anything to it but maybe here are some smart folks. Thanks in advance Knowen

Hello there! I'm new at creating maps and looking for someone to help me out with some things. Like setting height to a spline. I have created a new spline and with the "spline height panels 25" script I'm hoping to raise the terrain among that spline line. But when I do, I get cone shapes on every spline point (see images). Looking forward to get some help! Thank you!

To clear up a misunderstanding ; None of the current User Attribute or Spline Panel script versions of any of the published scripts will work with GE 8.2.2 However I have now modified some of these scripts to work with GE 8.2.2 these are available in the 8.2.2 scripts.zip at thebottom of this topic. Instructions for use are in the scripts themselves also a READ ME file has been added containing further information A brief explanation of why the latest User Attribute/ Spline Panel scripts don't work with the older versions of GE. GE uses a cut down version of LUA which only allows certain variables/commands to be used in any scripts created…
