FS25 CCM Production Pack V1.0.1

IMPORTANT NOTES:
– This mod pack adds 4 new tippable heaps (heightTypes) to the ground. Please be aware of the heightType limit on your map if there are already many new fillTypes installed!
– DIRECT FEEDING: CCM / GRIST can only be fed directly if it is registered in the map’s animalFood.xml. For use in forage mixers, CCM / GRIST must be explicitly included in the MAP’S recipes – a standard mod cannot add these entries globally!
– BALE ERROR: Due to a Giants error regarding the loading order of bale and filltype definitions from mods, baling CCM is only possible on maps that already have these bales integrated natively into the map!
Take your animal feeding to the next level!
This pack expands your feeding options with the production of high-quality grist and CCM (Corn Cob Mix).
The extra effort of milling and fermenting is highly rewarded:
By cracking the grain (up to 25% yield bonus) and the subsequent processing in the mixing factory,
you achieve a significantly higher feed output compared to using raw crops.
It pays off!
How to process your crops:
You have two options for milling, depending on the size of your farm:
1. The Mobile Hammer Mill:
Designed for large-scale operations.
It provides a seamless continuous process driven by a powerful tractor (280 hp) or PTO generator.
Once the unloading pipe is unfolded, the material is milled on-the-fly and can be unloaded to the ground, a silo, or a trailer.
IMPORTANT: The use of mill additive is mandatory for this mobile process!
Without the additive, the raw material is output un-milled.
2. The Stationary Grist Mill:
A compact, placeable, and cost-effective alternative for smaller farms.
Simply fill the bunker and let the facility do the work.
Finished grist automatically spawns on pallets or can be unloaded as bulk material via the pipe.
No additive or tractor power required.
Raw CCM from either mill must then be fermented in one of the included bunker silos or wrapped into bales (if the map supports it!) using the included Goeweil baler (with mounted Additive Tank!) or vanilla roundbale balers to obtain usable CCM.
In the placeable mixing factory,
the produced goods can then be mixed with forage or root crops
to create highly efficient pig food and Total Mixed Ration (TMR) for cows.
V1.0.1.0
– added small stationary Mill (production)
– fixed missing connectors when Lizard Hammer Mill is detached
– fixed weird looking fillVolume on the Hammer Mill
– fixed fillPlanes diffuse texture with too high alpha and not showing on belts/particles
– adjusted soundScale for hammer mill operation (was way too loud)
– changed/adjusted input triggers for foodmix factories, hopefully working seamlessly on consoles now
– fixed additive error on the Goeweil Vario 150 Ext
– added CCM to non-additive attachment GOEWEIL variant (CCMRAW still needs the additive tank version!)
– changed sound templates for fill types
– added Portuguese ingame translation (provided by Inoque)

Thank you for sharing these important notes and detailed information about the CCM Production Pack V1.0.1 for FS25. This expansion pack seems to offer a range of new features and options for enhancing animal feeding in the game.

The addition of tippable heaps and the processing of high-quality grist and CCM (Corn Cob Mix) provide interesting gameplay mechanics for players looking to maximize their feed output. The benefits of milling and fermenting, such as the yield bonus and increased feed efficiency, add depth to the feeding system within the game.

The two milling options, the Mobile Hammer Mill and the Stationary Grist Mill, cater to different farm sizes and playstyles. The Mobile Hammer Mill offers a more dynamic and high-output milling process, while the Stationary Grist Mill provides a simpler and cost-effective alternative for smaller farms.

The requirement for mill additive in the Mobile Hammer Mill process and the need for fermentation or baling of raw CCM add a layer of realism and management to the feed production chain. The inclusion of bunker silos and the Goeweil baler further expand the possibilities for processing CCM on maps that support these features.

The ability to mix the produced goods with forage or root crops in the placeable mixing factory to create pig food and Total Mixed Ration (TMR) adds versatility and customization to the feeding options available to players.

The update in V1.0.1.0, with additions like the small stationary Mill, fixes for missing connectors and fillVolume issues, adjustments to soundScale, and improvements to input triggers and translations, shows the commitment of the modders to continually improve and enhance the player experience.

Overall, the CCM Production Pack V1.0.1 seems like a comprehensive and well-thought-out addition to FS25, providing players with new challenges and opportunities to optimize their farming operations.
