Cultivators not decompacting

[CityFarmerDE]

Hi,

the cultivators seems to have no effect to the compaction level.

1. Started a new Savegame on Goldcrest Valley an cultivated field 14 with different Cultivators. Cultivation level stays red.
2. Ploughed the field and drove on it to get some compaction. Used different cultivators to reduce the level - no effect. After sowing the same.
   Ploughs and Kuhn DLC Subsoiler are working.
   No entry in the logfile.

Should be fixed with 90ff1a3 the last commit. 😉
Please try again.

Hello, for me is still attracted only to the light level. When I use a tractor mit no compacting too.
A light compaction remains, whether with a plow or cultivator :(

I already tested with all mods disabled, but is there perhaps a known conflict with a mod, whitch make problems by just have it in the mod directory?
errorlog is clean.

@s4t4n As far as we know there are no mod conflicts. So we need your help here. Please try a fresh savegame without mods and verify that you can decompact soil. Then you can add mods (e.g. 10 at a time) so find out what mod conflicts with SC.

I did it already. no change of the issure.
Tested with just SC, DC and season.
Are the GroundTextures matter for the functions? It should be only for the optical ground or?

"Are the GroundTextures matter for the functions? It should be only for the optical ground or?"
Not sure what you mean by these two questions.

Are you sure you have downloaded the latest version of SC?

Also are you sure you view the resulting compaction in the Map Overview with only Needs Plowing activated?

[s4t4n]

What I mean, has the Ground Texture files (ground_diffuse.dds etc.) any impact to the functions of SC or backwards?
Because I think, those are just relevant for the optical.

I've the newest version installed for sure.

Also are you sure you view the resulting compaction in the Map Overview with only Needs Plowing activated?

You mean the option, which en- or disable the funktion, need to plow after 3 times ?
It does'nt matter, I can adjust it On or off, it's ever the same.

Nr. 4 is plowed
No. 26 plowed and cultivated
No. 5 to 8 are seeded.
No. 3 is a grasfield with a line.. a stripe in the middle plowed.
No. 2 was a test without SC.

Hello,
I´m having the issue, that the cultivators don´t decompact.

Here is my Log.

I have only this mod in the mods folder. Started a new save on Goldcrest Valley.

My observations:
Scenario: Field 14, harvested field, "needs plowing" dark red.

• I can set the Kuhn Cultimer L300 to shallow or deep. However, no setting actually decompacts the soil.
• I plow the field. The field has no compaction. I drive over the plowed surface -> Light compaction. Then I try to cultivate the field with the cultivator but there is no decompaction (I tried with shallow and deep mode). In fact, the whole area that I cultivate gets light compaction. The F1 menu says that the Cultimer causes no compction, so in theory I shouldn´t get any light red after the cultivating.

Keep it up

same problem to me!

[s4t4n]

still same even to me.

I think the FS17_Ground_Modification mod is in conflict with RM_soilCompaction...
gm with sC and sC with gm.

best regards

hello
i am also having a problem.
tine cultivators and disk cultivators seem mixed together, i have option given to change depth (shallow, deep) for the Lemken Gigant disker and Koekerling Allrounder though one is a disker and the other is a tine cultivator
as well. no cultivators change the compaction of deepest red soil, only second level compaction they change. subsoilers and ploughs work good though for loosening deep red soil but not rippers like the horsch Terrano (which doesnt get the option to change depth so i believe its a ripper?)
and as well i cannot seem to change modes between shallow and deep for any tools when the option is given. i have tried changing my buttons (tool function 4) to confirm i am pressing the right one but nothing is working they are stuck at Shallow,
also, this mod is not compatible with More Realistic because the tools are changed slightly and will not have the option to change depths sometimes even if they should (maybe need to add deep cultivator lines into MR XML files manually?)

Sorry for the long post and bad english as i am not a native speaker but thank you for making this mod i hope it is fixed soon this fills the gap that soilmod left in LS17 and i am very happy to see this mod being made

[astro80]

any update about this?

[s4t4n]

for me seems since the last update no changes. It's still not possible to remove the light red compaction. :(

We're currently enjoying our holidays so development is on lower priority for a couple of weeks already. I will notify as soon as we continue looking at this problem.

[astro80]

good holidays guys!!!

[stijnwop]

Thanks!

I've been reading over the last couple of comments. Regarding to the light compaction reappearing:

It's weird I know.. but as soon you go over the field with the cultivator twice it doesn't decompact anymore.. it just adds compaction because the decompacting only works on uncultivated fields.

For example:
Plough -> no compaction
Drive over it once -> light compaction
Cultivator (shallow) -> no compaction
Cultivator (shallow) -> light compaction

So it's known and we're trying to find a way to solve this "issue".

About disk cultivators.. we don't have an option for that. It's a shallow cultivator by default. The bug for changing depth should've been fixed some time ago. Also only problem with MR as far as I know are the tire visuals when changing pressure since MR also changes the wheel graphics.

[astro80]

no fix for this i think :(
