Guides & help
Practical articles maintained by the FS Portal team — independent of individual mod authors. Installation, troubleshooting and catalog tips.
Installing mods for Farming Simulator 25
FS25 uses its own mod folder and often needs up-to-date global scripts. Always download from the author — not random mirror sites.
Installing mods for Farming Simulator 22
FS22 still has an active mod community. Rules are similar to FS25 but paths and some scripts differ.
Troubleshooting the mod folder
Most issues come from wrong paths, double-nested ZIP files or two mods patching the same game file.
Map mods, DLC and compatibility
Maps are the most demanding mod type. Checking requirements first saves hours of troubleshooting.
