is there a special mod list for this map
Hi FSB,
This is an excellent map which I will be playing for many hours. I'm up at Wrights Farm (16) and wanted to add a sheep pasture, but when trying to add any animal buildings I get a message saying "item cannot be bought". Have you seen this before and do you have a fix, or is it a mod conflict on my side?
Thanks
Joe
hello mate, glad you like the map. 😀 what you need to do is down load the 64 more animal mod, its on Modhub, that will allow you to use more animal ones.
legend, thanks mate
Hi there FSB
yet again a brilliant map!
Yours are the only maps I play now. I just read further down that your only started playing fs in fs22? That's mental that you've created such outstanding work!
The only thing I'm looking to change on it so far is the grass height. Just a personal thing.
I know I've done it on the original oaks and saxthorpe but I'm struggling to find the right line to edit on this map in the id3 file. Any guidance on where it is?
Cheers
Hey buddy, i think that will be because i changed the foliage color and added the id3 and xml's to the map. think you'll find everything you need in the textures folder, there's a couple of folders inside there for the grass etc.
Hi mate. Sorry for the late reply! How very rude of me.
yes I found it and sorted it now, thank you for the help!!
Well, a month and a bit into Vintage Oaks (game year 2, Farm Manager) and as I expected I'm absolutely loving it. Managed to apply the update and keep my save game. A bit of judicious xml editing and I was able to get all the new goodies and keep my save game (with some help from Easy Dev Controls). Sad to say I turned off the traffic because it broke the "80's vibe". Some vehicle modders out there need to gift FSB with some 70's and 80's vehicles :-)
I think I can safely say that of all the maps I've played in FS22 this is my favorite (narrowly beating out Calmsden because it's 4x).
FSB, So many many thank's for this map, I really hope you'll be able to convert this for FS25 because otherwise I'm going to be sticking with 22 for a long time.
What can I complain about (a grumpy old man, I need to complain a lot). Umm, nothing comes to mind at all.
Oh, I keep hearing helicopters and aircraft passing over but can never see them. Ahhhhhh now I feel better :-)
Absolutely love the map! I've never had so much fun on any other map. Thanks!
I love the freedom of building my own farm, but there are a lot of bushes around the map that I can't remove. Is there any way to remove them?
i didn't place down those hedges in image. ?
They are default bushes on the map you placed, i painted the ground to show them better.
Congratulations on an another excellent map, you really have done a beautiful job. I confess to not playing on British maps much because my driving skills are quite poor (due to disability) and the yards/lanes tight, but you've struck a happy medium. Could you be persuaded to create a version where we could delete fences without hitting the Giants editor? It would help a great deal when customising farms imo.
i don't think many maps has removable fences, not even giants do that. it may be a thing in fs25 but it's to late to rebuild Vintage Oaks at this stage.. iv made all the farms fully customizable which is a start :)
I have just started playing vintage oaks map. When I unload a full trailer of Wheat in the British Grain unload point my money does not increase. Am I missing something. Where do you guys sell your grain
go round the back and call the train and drive it off the map, that's how the train sell point works in FS22
hi thanks for the advice I was not aware that was the train sell point.
Thanks for a great map 👍
it is just such a great map, i love playing on this
1980's appropriate (ish) equipment.
This is most of the era appropriate (or near enough) equipment I've found..
Maybe it'll save someone some time searching.

Just downloaded map and what a great map but i have a problem opening the sheds doors?
have you tried buying the land?
yes i did and reloaded game
so the doors now open? so it wasn't an issue?
yes they do and thanks for a wonderful map layout is just right and now farming in the eighty
What an awesome map. Any chance that placeables for decorations will be a standalone pack?
you mean release it on ModHub?
No i thought your itch page or discord. I hadn't thought of modhub
One little thing: As far as CoursePlay is concerned Field 20 is "not a field".
user error, drive into the field, iv harvested it with 2 combines.
I thought I did, I was into the crop. Guess I just need to go a bit further. Thanks (loving it btw)
I cannot locate a description for the newest update. What has changed? Will it require a new save game? Thanks
he changed the link from Vintage Oaks to Vinatge Oaks 4x. no offical update. per FSB on his discord.
Thank You
there hasn't been an update?
Ok thanks
The map is amazing mate i grew up on east coast of suffolk and have seen the very simular landscape and farms, i used to play out on the farmers lands on the old concrete runways that the RAF and USAF used in wwII they built most of there barns on after the war finally a map that shows the uk isnt small farming like everyone thinks we have big old fields as well, im just fifnishing up my village butcher and bakery that has custom pies and bits that giants will never allow on the modhub beacause of upseting there kid E rating but will plop nicely into one of the villages on this map would love to see that fs25 mist over the fields on this map ;) anyway i will be dropping you a donation on payday for your hard work. Keep up the amazing job.
thank you mate, hope you enjoy the map
Hello,
Suivez bien l'installation de ce logiciel/mod et vous découvrirez au petit matin cette petite brume que vous appelez de vos vœux ;-)
https://ls-portal.eu/realseason/
Stunning & beautiful map. I've been told you need to edit the sheep field to enable grazing for "RealismAddon: AnimalGrazing". Would that be possible please?
i haven't been informed of that so not sure to be fair, it was just a standard giants pen
No edits are needed it works just fine
Thank you for the stunning map, I have found that the farmers market seems to be out of it intended place as with the AutoDrive integrated. The unload location at the rear is inaccessible.
the autodrive was updated to fix that lol https://www.kingmods.net/en/fs22/mods/34363/vintage-oaks-autodrive
Thanks for the heads up, this should work a treat
Thank you very much for the beautiful map. But why not at the beginning of FS22? But they say, the best comes at the end. Thanks
thanks mate. at the beginning of fs22 id never played fs let alone made a map :)
the map is really nice!
Oh, a question: Do I need to save and reload every time I buy farmland or a farm (I usually start with zero and work my way up buying land and farms as and when I can afford them).
if you find that the triggers don't work then the save exit and reload will fix that issue
Absolutely love The Oaks and fully expect to absolutely love this map as well. Enormous thanks to FsB for so much work and such a loving recreation of Norfolk countryside.
thank you mate.
brillant map thank u very much will be playing it alot
Disappointed not to have any free range cattle pastures, just small square ones. At least there's a free range sheep pasture.
libre à toi d'en installer, pas de quoi être déçu, les espaces ne manquent pas!
well said
bien dit !
sorry i can't please everyone, it's very easy to place custom ones of your choice, iv made the map customisable for that reason.
looking good, can post some pics of your progress in the Discord channel
Yes and Thanks for yout great Map.
Wo ein Wille ist, ist auch ein Weg.
fantastic map , will have hours of fun . Fantastic map maker.
Never mind just came on
I dont see a download link. is this the correct page?
Has this map been updated yet that contains all the fixes
i'm uploading updates as they need them. everything still works fine with a little know how..
THe map is just gorgeous. Just 1 thing is missing which is traffic.
i choose to leave cars out as 2015 cars don't suit an 80's style map but may add traffic at a later date
Totally understandable. However the game lacks life, traffic is the only one which puts life in a map else its just you and nothing else. so traffic addition would be favorable.
What an awesome map, I have been following the re development of this map from the start, and boy, was it worth waiting for!! All credit to you F.S.B.
Love to try this one out, but can't find the DL-button???
He's taken map down to do a fix, try again later.
THX Leee225!
It will be well worth the wait , Amazing
Why can i not see the download button?
I thought I just didn't know how to use this site, I can't see one either.
*Edit* Just checked the Discord, the link has been removed while he works on a couple fixes. Will be back up when thats done.
hotfix inbound button will be back asap
having fixed an issue with pallet spawning late last night i currently have a problem with covering the silage pit, working on a fix which should be save game compatible. until then iv taken the map down for an hour or so. sorry to be a pain.
My silo bunker wont cover on farm 15 and it's 100% compacted
oh no. i'll take a look, is there a trigger option?
There is no triggers and im going to try and see what it does today and ill let u no u have made a brilliant map by the way
if i update the map you only need to down load it if it fixes something you can't fix your self. To get your sileage bunker to cover, exit your game and rejoin it will then set the id up so you can cover the Bunker.
thanks for replying back just thought I'd let u no what was going on so u knew first thanks for ur help
do I need to re download the map because u updated the pallet spawning
yeh mate. grab the 1.0.0.1 version as it fixes the swimming sugar pallets and its save game compatible
when u do updates to the map do I need to re download the map again just so I no
I can’t wait looks amazing
just released an update to fix couple small errors.
I haven't looked forward to a map so much in ages.
Fantastic map! as said the swan song of FS22 no doubt. Worth a donation for sure.
Autodrive network coming up soon!
Thank you in advance
