Anyone know of an Auto loading mixer mod ??

[[TSR] Akula]

One thing i find really boring on this game is loading the bales with the bale fork into the Kuhn Mixer, does anyone know of any mods out there that are automatic loading ?

Im thinking of something simple like the Kuhn Confort with the loader off the Acrusin bale loader on the side.

Black Diamond Farms group and server has a shed mod that lets you drop off piles of loose straw and hay in them to be vacuumed up by the Kuhn confort just like the silage is. I have no idea where they got it though so you may want to check with them. http://steamcommunity.com/groups/blackdiamondfarms is their
group steam page and the following link is a image of the shed from said page. https://www.dropbox.com/s/nr3c6j8xfibk5ov/mixrations.jpg

Arghhh... now that you linked that I really want to find that mod/shed. It would be so easy to just drop off grass and straw and skip the baling. I have a feeling it's part of the map they use, and not a placeable mod you can place in any map. :(

I have no idea yet bulwark5... i still use bales but I use a mod Kuhn confort SPV 48 with 48,000L tank. it requires 4 square hay bales and 4 square straw bales before filling with silage... speeds things up when you are switching vehicjles less often. http://www.ls2013.com/farming-simulator-2013/kuhn-spv-48-turbo-v-1-mp.html

I rarely mess around with game settings/mods as it's just a personal pleasure for me to use what I have at just my disposal to get things done... but there is a tolerance. I feel your pain with the Kuhn; I just said ♥♥♥♥ it and went in and edited its capacity. I put it up to some ridiculous number, too. I have 500 head on one map and it's normal for me to go through a full silage bunker - doing mix ration - in about three runs. :-P

Otherwise it just takes up the whole damn time.

I'm going to try and hunt down the mod(s) listed above. If I can't find something similar soon, I'll just have to set aside some time and work one up myself.

Thanks a lot guys ill try that mod ASAP.

Yeah i also altered the capacity of the Kuhn mixer to something like 120,000

There is 3 zip files , it says 2 go in the mod folder but where does the other go ?

[Knottypine]

Thanks for that link nicksil! :)

Ah rats. Akula..... 2 out of 3 files will work. The 3rd important file with the actual shed is not placeable. The Giant's Editor is required to place it on a map.

Is that something i can download freely ???
