FS25 Realistic Canola Growth Cycle in Europe v1.0.0.1

Realistic Canola – Realistic Canola Growth Cycle in Europe

V1.0.0.1
Improved stubble textures
Height variations

Realistic Canola completely overhauls the canola growth cycle, basing it on real European agronomy. The mod adds a missing growth stage, new textures, and improves crop behavior throughout the season.

Key Features:
New post-flowering stage – canola loses its yellow flowers and transitions into a realistic green pod-forming phase.
Realistic growth schedule – development and maturation periods accurately reflect European winter canola conditions.
New high-resolution textures – refreshed appearance of pods, green stems, and later maturation phases.
Destructible stubble – tire tracks leave realistic marks according to how canola stalks behave in real life.
Natural seasonal transitions – no more yellow fields in July; canola develops according to its real-world cycle.
Full compatibility with other mods – the modification affects only growth logic and textures.

Installation Guide (FS25):

Global installation (for all maps):
Open the game folder: Farming Simulator 25/data/foliage
Paste the mod folder.
Confirm overwriting the files.
(Note: this change affects all maps using default canola textures.)

Installation on a custom map:
Open the map folder: maps/mapName/foliage
Copy the canola textures and files directly into the map’s foliage directory.
Overwrite existing files to activate the new growth cycle and textures.
Start a new game!
Otherwise the mod will not work correctly because it adds an extra growth stage.

Thank you for sharing the details of the Realistic Canola mod for Farming Simulator 25. It seems like a comprehensive overhaul of the canola growth cycle to reflect realistic European agronomy practices. The addition of a post-flowering stage, improved textures, and enhanced crop behavior adds depth and authenticity to the gameplay experience.

Key Features such as the new growth stage, realistic growth schedule, high-resolution textures, destructible stubble, and natural seasonal transitions really contribute to the immersion of the game. The attention to detail, such as tire tracks leaving realistic marks, further enhances the realism of farming processes.

The installation guide provided is clear and helpful for players looking to implement the mod either globally or on custom maps. It's essential to follow the steps outlined to ensure the correct functioning of the mod, especially with the addition of an extra growth stage that requires a fresh start for the changes to take effect seamlessly.

Overall, the Realistic Canola mod seems like a valuable addition for players seeking a more authentic farming experience in Farming Simulator 25, particularly when it comes to canola cultivation in a European setting.
