Forest Converter is a universal tree-conversion script mod for Farming Simulator 25 on PC and Mac. It replaces safely isolated standing map trees with a configurable mix of verified mature forestry trees.
Unlike a small radius-based replacement tool, Forest Converter can scan:
– The entire map
– All farmlands owned by the current farm
– Only the farmland where the player is currently standing
Every conversion starts with a protected preview. You can review the number of eligible trees, skipped-tree safety information, and normalized species mix before confirming any changes.
The default mix is:
– 50% Silverrun Pine
– 50% Silverrun Ponderosa Pine
Lodgepole Pine, Giant Sequoia, the bundled Pine and Spruce mature variants trees, and other compatible species remain optional at 0% until you choose to include them.
Important: Back up an existing savegame before converting trees. Conversion changes the savegame-managed tree population and is not intended to be an undo tool.
Main features
– Dedicated Settings > Forest Converter tab
– Works on fresh starts and existing savegames
– All Map Trees, Owned Farmlands, and Current Farmland scopes
– Configurable weighted tree-species mix
– Weights are normalized automatically; they do not need to total 100
– Protected preview and confirmation before conversion
– Trees are processed gradually to reduce frame spikes
– Mature replacement models are created immediately
– Compatible map and enabled tree-pack registrations are detected automatically
– Only verified mature forestry targets are offered by the converter
– Cut trees, logs, stumps, protected objects, and unsafe tree hierarchies are skipped
– Automatic circuit breaker disables conversion safely when an unsupported condition or excessive failure rate is detected
– Thirteen bundled mature forestry trees are also individually placeable from the Construction menu
– Optional Forest Converter Sapling Add-On with eight pallet sizes and dynamic species selection
– Bundled Forest Converter trees
The following 13 credited mature tree models are registered under unique Forest Converter species names:
– Spruce Variant 1
– Spruce Variant 2
– Spruce
– Scottish Spruce Variant 1
– Scottish Spruce Variant 2
– Scottish Spruce Variant 3 — repaired distant LOD
– Pine Variant 1
– Pine Variant 2
– Old Pine
– Scotch Pine
– Riverside Birch
– Cypress
– Eucalyptus
They are available as optional conversion targets and under:
– Construction > Landscaping > Forest Converter Trees
– Construction placement creates a mature, registered tree without converting or changing any nearby trees.
Optional Sapling Add-On
FS25_ForestConverterSaplingAddon.zip is an optional companion download. It adds liftable pallets containing:
– 6 saplings
– 24 saplings
– 40 saplings
– 60 saplings
– 120 saplings
– 175 saplings
– 240 saplings
– 300 saplings
The Tree Type selector is built from FS25’s active plantable-tree registry, allowing all 13 Forest Converter registrations—and other compatible active species—to appear without relying on a fixed hard-coded list.
The pallet displays the selected supported species name, and the label color can be changed in the shop. Forest Converter saplings use a compatible young stage and grow into the selected mature model.
Giant Sequoia remains an explicit oversized option. It should be treated as a chainsaw tree because its mature trunk is generally too large for a normal wood harvester.
The Sapling Add-On has its own technical mod identity and does not replace the original Tree Sapling Pack. Both can remain installed, although this will add similar pallet products to the shop.
