Introducing the Sunflower 9433-30 Grain Drill for FS22.
I’ve wanted a Sunflower drill since I began playing Farming Simulator. This is a quick edit to fill that gap. Full credit goes to the original modders listed below. Here also is the changelog for what I have done personally:
- Edited the color to match other Sunflower mods currently available, as well as standardized the diffuse colors for the entire model.
- Created a custom decal mesh to support the Sunflower decals.
- Edited the unfold speeds and the speeds of the row marker animations.
- Edited the wheel size and location to correct the floating appearance of all tires.
- Edited the height of the collisions for the row units to support the lower ride height after editing the wheel size.
- Changed the press wheels to be rubber rather than shiny painted metal and randomized the rotation of the dirt texture for an overall better appearance when in motion.
- Moved the location and rotation of the fertilizer tank to more closely match the Sunflower drill.
- Added an animation to the cap on the tank and added internal mesh for proper internal appearance.
- Made the entire fertilizer system a store option.
- Fixed the fertilizer pressure gauge textures.
- Re-added the stand animations and functionality for the event that you want to disconnect the drill while unfolded.
- Fixed the chain textures and animations on the row markers.
- Fixed the lift cylinders on the main wheels so the punch no longer extends out beyond the cylinder when folded.
- UDIM’d the wheel hubs to allow for the proper color of grease caps and lugs.
- Added a transform for all opened disks so the disks now remain angled properly when the drill is lowered and in motion.
- Removed the requirement to “turn on” the drill to operate. Only lowering is now required (this is a ground-driven machine).
- Tweaked the work areas to better align with the row units.
- Separated and added a diffuse to the platform walkways to give the appearance of perforated metal.
- Adjusted the height of the attacher joint to more closely match the drawbar of tractors.
- Enabled direct seeding.
KNOWN ISSUES:
- With the fertilizer system not installed, the 2nd “open cover” option will still exist. Please just cycle past this to close all covers. I have not found an alternate way around this other than combining the box and fertilizer tank cover animations, which I opted not to do.
- There is a game log “warning” due to the size of the mesh for the fertilizer tank. This should not affect gameplay. No other warnings or errors exist at this time.
- The tongue of the drill falls through the floor of the in-game store. This does not affect the performance or function of the machine after it is purchased.
