BIG NEWS COMING! (11/27)
Thank you to everyone around the world who has downloaded and supported RT Regions! Your feedback, suggestions, and kind words keep me going.
Special shoutout to players in the USA, Germany, Canada, Italy, and the Netherlands—you’ve helped make this project what it is today. (Top five downloaded locations) Happy farming, wherever you are!
All GFSMods releases are found here on itch.io or KingMods (but still linked to here) and are not part of any other mod. Do not download from anywhere else as I have not uploaded files anywhere other than here on itch.io.

Current Project(s)
Realistic Temperatures
Realistic Temperatures, a series of scripts for FS25 that allow for more realistic and varied temperatures depending on the region you are playing. This mod also allows for rain/snow/hail to happen in more seasons, region dependent.
Keep in mind if you don't have a weather station your forecasts will not be completely accurate. You can buy one in the Construction menu under Tools. There are also a few mods for more variety of them.
Must have Realistic Weather installed. Realistic Temperatures has basically become Realistic Weather Extended/Enhanced, haha.
Southern Hemisphere Calendar
I have been working on an in-game crop calendar tab for the Southern Hemisphere. The game has been fighting me at every turn unfortunately. I have gotten so far as to replicate the entire header section of the crop calendar but am currently stuck on filling in the crop bars and calendar format. Giants' engine does not like you playing with the UI.
Canadian Government Subsidies
Just a simple sign mod that adds money to your account every day in the form of a government subsidy, depending on which level of government is providing the subsidy.

How It's Made
For the first beta version of each region, I choose three cities that are spread apart in the country/region and record the last three years of highs and lows. I then take the averages and use them to reconfigure the temperature settings in the environment.xml. This takes me roughly an hour per region.
For the second beta version of each region, I take those three cities and record the amount of days of each type of precipitation and then I get the amount of days without precipitation from that. I then use a weight formula I put together and the averages I got from recording the information to calculate the weight for Sun, Cloud, Rain, Snow, Hail, etc. This takes about an hour or two per region.
For the first stable version of each region, I use Google to find the seasons for each crop for the region I am working on. Once all the information is recorded, I edit each of the crops xml files to reflect this. This takes me roughly two to three hours per region.
In all, each region (i.e. North-Eastern USA) can take 4-6 hours of work to finish (if there's no issues), so please be patient with me. I'm still a one man team! :)
