Rolling hills, lush farmlands, and picturesque countryside vistas set the stage for your farming adventure.

The map features two small towns, which serve as the central hubs for your farming activities, providing mar...

Project Updates

First I want to say a big ol' thank you to all of my patreon supporters. Regardless of the tier you belong to, I appreciate every single one of you! If it wasn't for you guys, I wouldn't be able to do what I do. You guys are freaking awesome!

This last month was a busy one. We were able to get Monteith out to you guys, get it tested and now I'm happy to say it looks like this next version will be the final version. Which means, a month from next Friday it will become a public map. This...

Missing in Action...

I will be camping with the family until Sunday. I will still make sure the newest version (v9.2) releases Friday afternoon. I may be a little slower to respond to messages and such until Sunday. I hope you all enjoy your weekend and hope you enjoy the (hopefully) final testing version of Monteith.

Should we start a Patreon only game server?

We've been kicking around the idea of starting a couple servers for patreon members to play on.  One or two public servers with public mods and in game equipment. We would obviously be playing mostly on the current maps that are in testing. Let me know how many of you would be interested in this...

Getting ready for colder weather...

Taheton County 4x is coming along smoothly. Was testing some Ice and winter settings and decided to take some screen shots for everyone to see. The ponds and rivers will have Ice and the winter textures are looking really good.

PDA Image

What do you guys think about the PDA? I originally had a light background that I was trying to make look like Google Maps. However, in game it was way to bright and with the fields overlaid it looked terrible. So I came up with this one instead... not quite sure if I like it yet. Let me know your thoughts?

New Map Locations

Curious what your ideas are for locations for upcoming maps. Shoot me some suggestions of cool areas that haven't been done in FS before. 

Map Showcase #4

For todays map showcase I decided to show you two of the "Older" farms on the map. Both are old dairy farms located in a hilly part of the map. Each of these farms has a unique feel and can be used for animals and cereal farming.  

Map Showcase #3

I apologize to each of you for being absent lately. June is a crazy month for me IRL and keeps me pretty occupied. To make things worse in the end of June I had to go to the hospital due to some health concerns, and then here in the last couple weeks my internet completely crapped out on me. I'm doing well though now and the internet is getting fixed Tuesday and I will be back at it with a vengeance.... Until then here is another showcase.   

Welcome to Taheton, IA - A fiction...

Updates Coming Soon

So, for those of you who don't know, June is my busiest month IRL. I have been absolutely slammed lately. I feel bad for not being more active on here, but I do have some updates planned coming up shortly and some surprises. Thank you as always for supporting me. It means the world to me...

Map Showcase #2

The featured farm in showcase #2 is located just outside of town and some of its fields actually butt up to the city limits. It's close to several sale points and nearby supplies. This farm is a smaller farm with 3 cold storage buildings, a work shop and a small bin complex. What sets this farm apart is its open cow barn and numerous acres of mowable grass, perfect for baling and raising beef cows.

Stars

The map now has stars that light up the night sky. This little addition makes night time operations feel so much more realistic. 

Map Showcase #1

I will be showcasing certain areas of the new map in detail. This weeks showcase starts with an old animal and grain farm. These types of older family farms are still widely seen in Iowa today. Older buildings in a compact farm layout. Small animal enclosures and little signs of modernization. This is one of the older farms on the map. It has a nice mixture of workable fields and grass pastures. It is found on the southern edge of the map next to a small county airport.

Welcome to my Patreon

Welcome and thank you for the support. I apologize that I had to create a new patreon. For some unknown reason my patreon settings on the old account got switched to bill per creation. This meant that you would have been billed separately for each post I made. I didn't think that was fair. I tried to get patreon to switch the billing model but they refused and told me I would need to create a new account. 

So here we are. I plan on posting weekly content on this page. Map updates, ...
