Description:

Introducing the 2020 John Deere W235 and W260. This mod traces its roots back to FS15, through FS17, FS19, FS22, and now FS25. Every mesh has been customized or improved in some way. It features water droplets on external surfaces and mud meshes for all tires. Key features include: engine options of 235hp or 260hp; tire choices between care tires with bias buttons or non-care radial tires; optional installation or removal of an additional step and beacons; compatibility with various StarFire and GreenStar systems; dealer sticker options; Motorola CB with antenna, either installed or removed. The lighting system is highly accurate, with animated knobs and LED indicators on the CommandArm. The 16-foot rotary cutter bar, a precursor to the R500, includes a custom windbent tarp, updated hazard lighting, steel conditioning rollers, anti-slip strips, and an authentic drive motor. Work lights are precise both forward and rear. The cab details are realistic, featuring mirrors, cowls, tinted rear window, new diesel and DEF caps, exhaust pipe, work platform, and steps. Inside, displays show gear changes, engine speed, hours, gallons per hour, and power consumption. An animated header engage switch and turn signal/high beam knob add realism. The GreenStar 3 CommandDisplay and 2630 provide authentic startup and warning screens that clear as you operate the machine forward or in reverse. The mod supports Interactive Controls. This project is a collaborative effort, with credits to the original modders whose work made this possible. Special thanks to PolyCount, JHHG, Skywalker Farms, Bcbuhler Farms, OSFarms, and others. My goal is to offer a piece of machinery that the community will enjoy, inspired by OEM manuals, technical specs, and my passion for learning Blender and GE. As more mods become available, additional features will be added. Please note some interior parts are not yet converted to FS25 materials and use custom shaders, which does not affect gameplay. Enjoy! -Respectfully, Green Acres Modding

This swather made a big difference while harvesting my oats. Being able to quickly switch out the tires helped with muddy patches in the field, and the realistic details are nice, especially the couple of features on the command station. It really feels like I’m behind the wheel of an authentic swather. Thanks for the effort!
