Lawfolds has been released on Giants Modhub
I am spoilt for choice with Truckers MP now supporting the latest version of ETS2 and ATS, the pleasant valley production map receiving weekly updates and now Lawfolds to add to the list.
Happy Days
Lawfolds comes to FS19
My all-time favourite map in Farm Simulator is Lawfolds.
It has been a great disappointment it has never been updated for FS 19.
That has changed with the news that CMModz is close to releasing the FS19 version.
DjGoHam Gaming has published a tour of the new map, which appears to have remained true to the FS17 version.
I am looking forward to getting back on the map, this is not a production map but, in my opinion, the best mixed arable and livestock map I have played, while also offering forestry options, useful in generating cash early on in a “Start from Scratch” game.
I can’t say for sure what it is about the map that works so well but some of the highlights for me are:-
- The topology of the map provides a realistic feel of rolling hills.
- Main farms are well connected making managing the three farm locations easy to manage.
- Fields are a variety of shapes and sizes but none overly small or large.
- The road and track network makes getting around easy and quick
Currently, with Giants for testing, I recommend taking a look when it appears on Modhub.
Interesting times in FS19.
To be honest I have never really enjoyed playing fs19.
It has never lived up to being a successor to fs17. The initial release was a shambles and it never really recovered. Seasons rallied things a bit and some relatively new mods such as Autodrive and Guidance Steering (GPS) have been notable but other than that everything else has been pretty uninspiring, I would say Alien Jim’s contributions to maps are a notable exception to this
I have drifted away from the game over the last few months but two recent maps are drawing me back,
In terms of traditional maps, 6 Ashes looks interesting. Based on Google maps, the layout and topology promise to provide a challenging experience.

Reviewed by Farmer Cop here. It would be worth checking out his Autodrive tutorials when you are there.
Production maps are also coming to the fore, most recently the PV County 16x map from Dajnet, support site pvmods.com.

I see me spending more time on FS19.
Hopefully, the successor to FS19 will be more positive than the stumble that was FS19.
