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…

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

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…

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…

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.…

Paint Foliage by Spline Panel This script is slightly different to the previous version in that it only paints in one area whereas the previous script painted in two independent area’s, this has been done to increase the stability of the script and also improve the Random Foliage Paint option. The script now automatically reads the map.i3d to list in the UI drop downs, all the Foliage Type’s associated with your map so there is no longer any need to add any extra foliage/crop to the script. However the Foliage State for each Foliage Type still requires a number value (position in the Layer State dropdown in GE) To assist with this the script now reads …

I've been mucking around redoing some of the foliage on my map, and using this script. I'm noticing an odd thing, that the foliage I'm getting is "shifted" or offset to where I'm actually painting by what appears to be a single pixel. This is the masked area, I run the script and it puts grass here You can see on the left that it appears to be outside the masked area, but on the right edge it seems to have respected it better. Now If I then run a different "creator" to remove the foliage from the areas covered by the indoor mask, you'll see it's shifted even more. Before After You can see that none of the grass on the bottom l…

SNOW MASK This is just a follow on from a previous post regarding the Scripts -Generate Mask script that automatically creates an indoor snow mask (infoLayer_indoorMask.grle) by mapping the collision footprint of objects in the map roads, buildings etc (placeables should have their own mask already created in the i3d). The Generate Mask script originally worked by using the water plane height (inputted manually into the script)as a base for calculations as this was normally the lowest point on the map, however this is sometimes no longer the case. The problem highlighted by Dickieboy in his post (https://farmerboysmodding.com/index.php?/topic/2446-i…
