1974 Allis Chalmers 608 v1.0.0.0

DESCRIPTION

This mod is of a 1974 Allis Chalmers 608. The mod was designed to feel as much like the real tractor as possible. From the second you start the tractor you will realize that a lot of time was put into the smaller details. This is my first mod but I’ve literally put 100s of hours into it and it feels well-polished in terms of details, realism and usability. I had to learn blender, UVs, UDIM, Giants editor, the XML file settings, how to make custom tires as none of the ones in the game were small enough and 100 other things just to get this into the game. Then all the tweaking where you change one little setting with something and start the game over and over again literally 100s of times just to get the setting right. Just like programming you spend more time testing than programming

Features
It goes 7km per like the real tractor
Top of engine spins
proper pivoting suspension operates like real tractor (that was fun to figure out)
Two sets of tires
Throttle lever moves with RPM rather than vehicle speed
Amperage meter works
Headlights work
Key goes into start position while starting
Throttle goes into choke position while starting
Grass shoots out the mower and leaves a clean path under the tractor when cutting
Character is removed when you are close to vehicle
True two wheel drive I recommend installing the enhanced vehicle mod and leaving the diffs unlocked, then like the original tractor it will get stuck and only one rear tire will turn.
Mower deck shows in mowers section and looks like an actual mower for this tractor.
Rear drive pulley spins when tractor is moving

If this mod is popular enough these features are possible for future releases
A trailer
A mulching deck
A grass catcher
610 version

If this mod is popular enough these fixes are possible for future releases
Add a moving brake/clutch pedal
the mower deck doesn't need to be lowered
still missing details and decals on the mower deck
still missing the lowering lever for the mower
needs safety decals and dash decals added
needs headlight switch added
animation of mower PTO engaging arm
animation of mower lowering arm

Features that probably will not be added in future releases
the front steering parts moving.

There seems to be a lot of people who want mods like this so I most likely will keep on working on it.

Unfortunately I would have to redo all the textures to put this into fs17. I'm working on too many things on this mod at the moment to do this. I do highly recommend FS19. Not everyone would agree but I found the feel of the tractors and lighting to be a lot better. I do miss mods like follow me and gps but overall the newer version of FS is worth it I think.

Neat mod. Of course it needs some refinement but it is only a V1.0. I hope you stick with it and really make it into a shining mod. Good work.

PS: Maybe I could convince/help you make a Farmall M mod? Just an idea.

Yes, I'm going to release a fixed version. I've found two issues since I released it. Trailer hitch needed to be moved to the second component and the mower deck couldn't be repaired once it was worn. I'm going to release a new version with a small trailer. Thank you.

Omg how sick! >.< Thanks so much, this thing is FANTASTIC. @Joe from ames iowa (GUEST) Right around the same time you got dropped on your head -.- Farms have grass, grass gets mowed. It's insane they didn't ALREADY have a regular mower and this dude just topped all their tractors as far as detail is concerned >.> Anywho... Great job, Tim. Thanks again

Thank You for this comment. These are the comments that make modding worthwhile. I'm nearly done the trailer and will begin the tiller and grass catcher the next release will be cool. I'm going to make the tractor a little bit faster as well. Only a few KM per hour though.

Thanks for this mod! Hey, here is an idea, if it is conceivable, the game sure could use a bush-hog to eliminate those pesky bushes without removing grass. I know it can be done using the Landscaping tools, but where is the reality of that?
