New Release -- September 1st, 2010

[pat.vanderploeg@gmail.com]

Hi there. Try clearing your caches and restarting your browser. :)

Thank you so much this solved my problem, I appreciate all the help and support....

[Ginasue1]

Wouldn't that be nice!
Yes it would, and I also checked my trees by selling just one and got 52.5 for a peach tree.

[Reta J]

I checked the basil I had ready, and got 176.399 for it. I did take a screen shot if the mods are interested.

Hi Reta. I am unsure of what you are referring to. Are you missing some basil? You harvested basil and some didn't go to your storage?

[Reta J]

No, sorry, I was just commenting on an earlier post talking about how many coins we were getting when we did "harvest and sale" instead of putting our harvest into storage. So sorry for any confusion and please remove it if you need to.

[cilla38]

Hi I was wondering if by chance you will consider putting a widows walk on the new house coming out . it will look much better with the light house

[speedmonkey]

Hi Reta. I am unsure of what you are referring to. Are you missing some basil? You harvested basil and some didn't go to your storage?

She was referring to a problem that I started having last night when trying to use the harvest and sell option on some of my trees. When I harvested them it gave me some off the wall coin amount that made no sense and then nothing credited to my coin count. If you go back to page 73 in this thread you will find my original post that details the issue. Are you a mod? Just wondering.

Reta, I just now have crops ready so I will check and see if my crops are doing it as well. My flowers worked fine last night but I will check them again. The mods are aware of the problem and I am sure that it has been reported to the devs who will probably jump right on correcting the issue. In the meantime it is probably best if we all just harvest and store. That way we avoid losing any coins as well as our harvest.

[SunnyD]

I do know that the time for my trees to be ready for harvest has changed i thought it was getting freaky like the last two days...... i try to harvest all the same trees at the same time on all five of my farms........ i have had like one pear tree or one avocado tree on the same farm ready for a before the others...i only add new trees of the same variety when i have just harvested.. i normally only hire to harvest crops.... i will check to see if I have any ready for harvest.. get back to you as to the amount it gives me......

wow unreal...... no I am not a moderator here on this forum..Just a game player like you.... but i did what you did. harvest to sell but only one of my pear trees and it was way unreal.. was something like +.38666666666000000 coins lol lol...........never did that harvest to sell before at least not on purpose I am pretty sure we all have clicked that one by accident...... freaky... so I can't even tell you if it has done this all along....... no idea if this helps you....... going to refresh so I don't get stuck in that harvest to sell mode

[Reta J]

lol SunnyD ... I never harvest to sale on purpose either, but had to give it a small try after what speedmonkey reported. lol just have to experiment and try to be helpful at the same time.

[speedmonkey]

Sunny,
Thanks for checking your trees for me. Flowers seem to be the only thing that are not messing up like this.

P.S. I was asking if amberdh was a mod. I was under the impression that all of the mods were identified by having green names. Just trying to make sure that I understood that correctly.

you are correct mod's do have diffrent color names then regular users... if you have not noticed yet some of us players like to help other out if we can. some times a new person getting a fast responce that helps means allot to them so that is why i like to help out

[speedmonkey]

I have noticed and try to help out where I can as well. I was just clarifying my understanding. If I am remembering correctly this was explained to me shortly after my brain surgery so I wanted to make sure that it was something that I remembered correctly from those days when I was not so with it mentally. Thanks!

[ImTznU]

the hide decorations doesnt effect the corners..i just went to my 4th farm to see if my water fall changed it didnt so i checked to hide decorations and it didnt hide any of the river corners....


the person posting about this try clearing your catch see if that helps bring them back

Well that depends on what is attached to the corners It does not hide all of mine either yet does some. Usually waterfalls have overlapping stone fence or something like that. LOL But I certainly could be wrong.

[jeanieNGMsfarm]

i dont have stone walls or anything on mine.but i do have a big boulder it hides for me to see the water under it... then again i learned one thing may happen on one farm and not another so i could be wrong too lol

Your welcome... I totally forgot that the "Mods" names are green ...... LOL LOL some of us that come here often tend to sound like we are mods LOL I do my best to not do that.... just wanted to let you know I'm just a FT player not a Moderator on the forum......

I catch myself sounding like one sometimes too. It is probably a good thing that I am "a little" out spoken or people would probably confuse me with a mod too!

Ok, quick question for all those chefs on the board, why would you need eggs to make lasagne? Just seems a little odd to need then for the pasta restaurant.

[amberdh]

I am not a chef by no means. But I do put eggs in my lasagna. I mix it in with the cottage cheese to help "bind" the layers together.

[Green Indian]

Does anyone know when Farm 6 will arrive? I cant stand the suspense any longer!!

[jeanieNGMsfarm]

i dont use egg's when i make it so i have no idea

[Lavenda]

I don't have time to track the info down, but I suspect the value that is showing up for the harvest & sell at the moment is the non-rounded figure. The store states what price you'll get for your crops if you harvest & store, the price you get for "large" harvests (those done by a hired harvester) are a rounded up figure of 20% more, I think the decimal values are 20% less and haven't been rounded. Like others, I never use this option (99% of the time I hire neighbours for everything) so the usual price of crops sold this way aren't that familiar with me. I leave it off my datasheet so it's not so cluttered

[Tony D]

i dont use egg's when i make it so i have no ideaSome people put eggs in the cheese

[Grumpa]

Does anyone know when Farm 6 will arrive? I cant stand the suspense any longer!!

The 13th of never.

Or it could be the 14th, 15th ect. ect. ect. :eek:

[jeanieNGMsfarm]

Some people put eggs in the cheese

i may have to try this.. im allways looking for new cooking tips didnt think i would find on on here lol

[SunnyD]

hey what is up?? i can't get to any of my facilities i keep getting connection timed out.. anyone else???? wonder if we are getting updates now?? lol who knows....... anyone having problems??????/

[jareed42]

How about a pancake house. Meals could be pancakes with syrup, pancakes with eggs, pancakes with ham...etc. Or a chicken restaurant. Meals with mashed potatoes, green beans, cole slaw...etc. Or a hamburger restaurant. "Do you want fries with that?" lol There could be different types of hamburgers, fries, onion rings, ketchup, mustard..etc. Something to think about?

[Sunnyraye]

i dont use egg's when i make it so i have no idea

I use 2 eggs in my chesse mix and blend it all in.

[LoreneC]

All mods have green names. Amber is an excellent helper :)

Is that why Tony's tiger is green? :p

[amberdh]

Is that why Tony's tiger is green? :p

Or is it really because he is green with envy of my mad farming skills :p:D;)

A pancake house has already been suggested in the suggestions thread. Any other suggestions for new items won't get taken into consideration unless they are listed in the suggestions thread. I would recommend that you post your thoughts on the other facilities over there because they are good ideas that should be taken into consideration for future updates.

I don't know why it is happening but it is something that should not be happening. I have harvested and sold directly before and never had this issue. It only started last night. Then it was just trees and now people are having problems with crops as well. I posted a question about it in the help & support thread and it is being looked into. I am not sure what price I should have gotten for the trees I harvested this way, I am not greatly concerned about the price, my concern is that the game is doing something odd and I got nothing for the sale at all. Nothing credited to my coin count even though the odd dollar amount showed when I harvested.

[Tony D]

Or is it really because he is green with envy of my mad farming skills :p:D;)Ummm ... Errr..... Sorry I might Have to accidently delete this post :p:p

[garden ho]

Has anyone noticed any coins being deducted if they place an item on their farm from storage or vice versa? I have. . .

[amberdh]

Yes, In this thread :)

Random charges for hiring/receiving gifts/moving items etc. (http://www.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?t=284722)

[KayGee]

i dont use egg's when i make it so i have no idea

Many recipes call for an egg to be mixed with the ricotta - mine does. The egg gives a better texture to the cheese part of the filling, in my humble opinion. That being said -I am sorry they got "foodie" about this, because I already have enough trouble keeping eggs on hand for current items! Let's campaign for eggless lasagna!

oh yeah, not saying it shouldn't been happening, just say what I think is happening (not a why or how). And yes I had seen your post in the H&S forum, nearly told you to post there when you first mentioned it here! Like the "spreader" message some of us were getting when trying to buy trees (weeks before the manure spreader came out), it shouldn't be happening but no biggie

[Chrissy Bee]

Is there a problem with Farmtown today or is it my problem? I cannot go online which means I can't hire people to work on my farm and I can't work on their farms. Help!! Error U00 keeps coming up on my farm.

[Juwalalce]

I use 2 eggs in my chesse mix and blend it all in.

Does it help hold everything together, so it doesn't become such a runny mess? If so I may have to try it.

[KayGee]

Yes, that is precisely what it does. and the texture and appearance are much better for them.

ah the tiger wields his green claws!:eek:I would never do that to Amber (even when she is bragging) :D:D

most boxes of lasagna noodles has a decent recipe for making lasagna on it..... I use a wonderful website that has tons of recipe's for just about anything you can imagine from crock pot to traditional country cooking and back again... can't add links here so I don't think i should even mention the site name as it would be removed LOL nah nah Tony

I love FT...now make more farms available, please! I would also like to buy products that are gifts only with our coins made available.

[jeanieNGMsfarm]

But you have to clean your storage or you loose all the crops you may harvest after the storage is full... they are sending warnings telling you to clean out your storage and sell some of the goods or you will loose what you put in new. It happened to me yesterday, did not cleaned before harvesting and lost all the blackberries and harvest I had in one farm. So be careful, put your facilities out or sell so that your bins are not full or you loose.

[goofyshoes]

I personally love all the updates; additcted is beyond words. :)

[Grace Croft]

the new flowers are awesome however after i had them planted for 2 days I watcheeed them all die in front of my eyes. any suggestions. I purchased 37 bird of paradise, 35 panseys, 14 lady slippers and 35 wildmix.

You may try watering them! Tool is at bottom screen where the yellow tool box is.

I'm having issues with my trees. Last night I harvested all of my Olive trees, but no produce went to where I could send the olives into production, and this morning I cut down all of my pine trees, and had no logs to send to the mill! What's happened to my stuff???? Can anyone help?? I appreciate any input!
Thanks!!

Try selling some of stuff in your storage, it may be full.

Any Help Please!! Thanks

You are the second person to report issues with facebook in the last little bit. This leads me to believe that facebook may be making some changes or doing maintenance. They are sure to show up shortly.

[sdslafayette]

I have absolutely no objection to the developers making money. That is not the issue!

My only request was to allow me/us to purchase for coins also . .

[LoreneC]

I dont think anyone will purchase with cash if they can purchase with coins. Why would they?

[StoneFace]

It does not matter how you pay me... either with a "valuable" US $20 bill, or a shiny $20 Gold piece.

Well, the devs offer some really neat things with a FT$$ price tag because those things are [1] usually more desirable, [2] usually more useful [3] usually will allow the devs to earn their living.

There are other ways to get FT $$ other than levels and getting one at a time for points.

[ImTznU]

Are you under the impression that the devs can spend FT coins at their local grocery store, or pay elec. Bills this way etc...? LOL I am lost here, because your statement seems to make no sense to me.

[speedmonkey]

But you have to clean your storage or you loose all the crops you may harvest after the storage is full... they are sending warnings telling you to clean out your storage and sell some of the goods or you will loose what you put in new. It happened to me yesterday, did not cleaned before harvesting and lost all the blackberries and harvest I had in one farm. So be careful, put your facilities out or sell so that your bins are not full or you loose.

Keeping your storage cleaned up is a requirement no matter what. I was talking about a problem with selling items directly from the field, using the harvest & sell option instead of the harvest & store option. It is doing strange things. I get the warning about my storage being full just about every day now. The warning is working fine the sell option is what is messed up, as long as I keep on top of cleaning my storage I have never lost anything.

Did you not get the warning and that is what led to you loosing your harvest?

[sulross]

Really like your changes and possible future levels. Just have one request. Please allow a larger gap between people with 3 million points or so and people with not one million points yet. All are level 115. They should not be the same level. If you have close to 3 million there should be some separtion from the rest, it is earned. Thanks

[speedmonkey]

Our game world has impact on the real world. Game coins do not make the world go 'round outside of our game. It won't pay bills, it doesn't pay for server space, developer wages, rent, food, or power. In order for the game to continue to be free someone has to pay the piper. FC items have been and always will be a way to pay those bills and continue to bring the game to all of us for free.

There is no in game requirement to have any of the FC items. They are add-ons to the game that are there to enhance your gaming experience. In comparison to a great number of other games this one is far more cost effective than many others out there. You get to play for free, there is no upfront cost for accessing the game, there are no subscription fees, and you are allowed to advance to the highest levels without ever HAVING to spend a dime. Many other games, just on Facebook alone are far less generous. Is there another game out there that offers us 22 production facilities for coin?

[wsbohannon]

Amen to that!!! I can't believe some of the comments I've read of people actually COMPLAINING that you have to spend real money for some facilities. Noone is pulling your teeth, making you do it! You KNOW that's how this game operates. If you don't LIKE it, then...... quit! Easy. Noone is forcing you to play .....

[dcarmena]

I've never received a message that my storage was full?? I sell off surplus every time I harvest a crop or facility. So, I'm a little confused now.

[Hessel]

Farm Town is no different than any other game or sim out there. They have to make REAL money to pay their bills. If you enjoy FT then SUPPORT FT by BUYING FC.

Slashkey is no different than any other business. They have COSTS to run their business.
Just look around next time you go to Wal Mart, Burger King, or Home Depot. Then check to see how much "free" stuff they have for you. This may be a game to us, but to Slashkey it is their living.

Now if we could get Farm 6 up and running, I will buy more FC as I have factories to buy!

Me too! i'm checking for new updates here every day as this is the first place they are posted - i also go to the realtor's office on the game but keep getting told i have all available upgrades. . .so i'm keeping my fingers crossed that one day (soon? lol) i will see that additional farm - don't care for coins or FC as i will spend my own $ to by F$ to get one. . . :)

[Green Indian]

Yes PLEASE hurry up with farm 6, I too am tired of bugging the Realtor, I am afraid he is going to get a restraining order against me !!

[ImTznU]

How is your favorite way of getting FC?

Although it was not asked from something I posted. My answer is through PayPal with my bank account! LOL That is easiest.

What are you confused about? Did you lose crops or products without receiving a warning that your storage was full?

[★XANDI★]

Is it stated somewhere that farm 6 is coming out soon? The latest official update I can find is this thread, dated September 1st.

Wow, they really made that sentance hard to find, 3/4 of the way down! lol. :D

Thanks for your help!

[Juwalalce]

Just to complain again, can the devs please try to fix the glitch that allows hired plowers to plow in space where there is NO previous plot. Or is this just a plot to make people buy the new deleting bulldozer? I am very tired of have to re-plow my farms b/c of greedy a-holes!

So if the developers are paying attention, the glitch is that dead flowers are able to be plowed over. Now can you add some code so that this doesn't happen? Thank you.

So for those of you who want more plots let your flowers die and then ask your hired plowers to plow them. You can get 3 plots per regular plot that way.

[Char1941]

Love, love, love the new items, especially the flowers. good job,Debbie. Thanks Raoul for the updates and I can't wait for Farm 6.

I have accidentally plowed extra plots on people farms before. It has nothing to do with flowers. Everyone that I know that has had this happen they have found the extra plots under paths. Paths do not block the ability to place plots. The issue at hand is that hired people should not be able to plow anyplace on the farm that is not already plowed. If it has changed and you can plow three plots per regular plot, because of dead flowers, I would strongly caution against it. This sounds like a perfect way to end up with corrupt game data! If you want more plots move stuff around so that you have space to put plots in the right way or you risk messing up your farm beyond repair.

[Queen.of.Clutter]

LOL !! I keep going to the Realtor office also, and let me tell you, there are a lot more people there now than ever before !! Getting a tad crowded in there !

I bought my stuff already, it is in storage just waiting for the new Farm, I am really looking forward to it! I stopped adding to my Mine, Bee Farm, SF plant, so I can move them when they are empty.

Me too! i'm checking for new updates here every day as this is the first place they are posted - i also go to the realtor's office on the game but keep getting told i have all available upgrades. . .so i'm keeping my fingers crossed that one day (soon? lol) i will see that additional farm - don't care for coins or FC as i will spend my own $ to by F$ to get one. . . :)

[dcarmena]

yes, I harvested all of my olive trees and then had no olives to produce. The next day I chopped all of my pine trees and had no logs to turn into lumber. I think mostly I'm confused about where and how to post questions.

[Farmer_Susan]

LOL !! I keep going to the Realtor office also, and let me tell you, there are a lot more people there now than ever before !! Getting a tad crowded in there !


I've become a regular at the Realtor office, too! I wonder if they're going to release farm 6 and the new levels all at once or whether it will be 2 different upgrades? I thought for sure something would happen today. I'm dyin' over here!

[Farmer_Susan]

yes, I harvested all of my olive trees and then had no olives to produce. The next day I chopped all of my pine trees and had no logs to turn into lumber. I think mostly I'm confused about where and how to post questions.

I'm laughing at myself because when I read your post I thought, "Oh no! That's really scary!" And then I had to say, "It's a GAME, Susan, it's a GAME!" LOL

But I do feel your pain. The thought of losing all that stuff really IS scary!

I am not a chef by no means. But I do put eggs in my lasagna. I mix it in with the cottage cheese to help "bind" the layers together.

If it has changed and you can plow three plots per regular plot, because of dead flowers, I would strongly caution against it. This sounds like a perfect way to end up with corrupt game data! If you want more plots move stuff around so that you have space to put plots in the right way or you risk messing up your farm beyond repair.

I read in the forum before about having "Corrupt Game Data" how does this effect you in Farm Town?? would it cause you to have Error Messages constantly? and connection reset constantly? and for Adobe Flash to crash all the dang time.. as these things are a constant for me only in the last couple or three weeks.. how can i find out? any help greatly appreciated.

yes, I harvested all of my olive trees and then had no olives to produce. The next day I chopped all of my pine trees and had no logs to turn into lumber. I think mostly I'm confused about where and how to post questions.

What we are trying to say is that if you are getting the "warning, your storage is full and you need to sell or you will loose harvests" but not heading that warning, you ARE going to loose harvests. Do you log in and out of Farmtown every day?

For the forum, you can "quote" the message you want to reply to, then it appears in your reply.

There are a number of threads for problems....this isn't one of them. Go to the main Slashkey Forum page, and look through the subjects listed under Help and Support...post your problem in the appropriate thread. The developers read those threads quite often and post fixes, ask for information, etc.

:confused: It's been TEN DAYS since you announced Farm #6 was "comming", Raul! Ten long agonizing frustrating days planning what we will do with our newest toy. And still we wait -- checking the increasingly crowded real estate office 5 and 6 times a day; dropping into the Forum hoping, hoping, hoping!

Please, PLEASE, PLEASE release Farm #6 and put us all out of our misery. You've turned us all into addicts, promised us a new "fix", and then you just dangle it out there while we tremble and quake with delirium tremens! Be kind to your poor addicted followers, PLEASE?

Go to market and sell some of your stuff in storage. It sounds like your storage might be full, if that is the case you will loose anything you harvest and will continue to until you make room in your storage. Most questions can be posted in the help and support section of the forum. You may also find answers to your questions there and never have to post a question. To make finding these answers easier there is a search option up in the header of each page. Just click on it and type in what you are looking for.

Hope this makes your game more enjoyable and solves your missing crops issue.

Happy Farming! :)

I don't know if it can cause the problems that you are having. You flash player crashing sounds like you need to completely uninstall and reinstall your flash player. You need to make sure to shut down your system after uninstalling and reinstalling so that all of the old files are removed. I had some corrupted data that led to me having to delete all of my flowers, most of my trees, and all of my plots on one farm. After I had that done a mod still had to come to my farm and "clean" my farm data. If it goes on long enough it can lead to total corruption of your farm data making it impossible to correct, thus rendering your ENTIRE farm unusable. If you would like to have your data checked you need to ask for one of the mods to come to your farm and check it for you. I don't know what neat little bit of magic they do but it was only with a mods help that I was able to regain use of my farm.

[katiecakes]

I really hope farm 6 happens soon! And perhaps a storage interface overhaul as well, but I'm always hoping for that one and it never comes :(

I have accidentally plowed extra plots on people farms before. It has nothing to do with flowers. Everyone that I know that has had this happen they have found the extra plots under paths. Paths do not block the ability to place plots. The issue at hand is that hired people should not be able to plow anyplace on the farm that is not already plowed. If it has changed and you can plow three plots per regular plot, because of dead flowers, I would strongly caution against it. This sounds like a perfect way to end up with corrupt game data! If you want more plots move stuff around so that you have space to put plots in the right way or you risk messing up your farm beyond repair.

Hired people cant for the most part plow new fields, what happens is that if you have had fields in that location before, even after you delete them the when someone plows for you that spot can be plowed by them still. If you never had a plowed field there b4 they cant

[etholl]

Is it stated somewhere that farm 6 is coming out soon? The latest official update I can find is this thread, dated September 1st.

gee its only sept 10th I guess 2 weeks isnt soon in your book, lol

This isn't just some hair brained theory I pulled out of my butt. It is a problem that has been bugging me since the last upgrade and using my husbands account as a hired plower I worked it out on my farm. I am not talking about plowing under paths, which if there is room someone could do, I am talking about the game treating flowers as if they were wasted crops and allowing them to be plowed. I agree that people should not be able to plow where there are not already plots. That is why I a hoping the developers see that this may be something to look at so it can be coded out of the game.

ahhh i see well dang..... i did remove flash and delete all kinds of stuff the cdn.slashkey folder and all that the other day........just for good measure i did it all again yesterday ... the dang flash crashing is killing me LOL....... hasn't done it again yet.. but it got way bad last night is why i did it... course i Haven't done anything on Farmtown yet either just been loading my neighbors farms to get a memory of all the crops again.. I am hoping I don't end up taking my pc in to the shop again that is expensive... UGH!

well shoot it crashed again.... i even went to my pc's manufacture's web site and checked for updates for my graphic's card etc that was suggested at the adobe site if this was happening... shoot shoot.......

I'm just so happy that there are so many other addicts - JUST LIKE ME!!!! I have checked the forum and the RE Office so many times - I'm sure there is a path though all my computer innards from my little virtual feet running there all the time... waiting anxiously for the new farm... and everything else! ;)

[moravia]

Looks like fence pieces are now staying hidden. YAY

[Satis]

I like the recent upgrades. In particular the flower harvester. I used to dread culling the flowers. I'm using the chain-saw and the tree-shaker more than I expected.

The changes in the market-place are great. It would be good if the drop-down menu was long enough to include all the options. It's quite short, and it's irritating to have to scroll down for something which could easily be visible at once.

Also, I would love a balance sheet; something which told you every day what you'd sold, what you'd earned. I know this is sad...

[marwahr]

You know what I'd like to see soon - a sea coast with some 'snow' around the shore edge so I can do a WHOLE farm in a winter setting ... what'cha think? :) Thanks devs for what you've put out so far, FT has some a long way since I started playing and enjoy it more and more every day and especially love those updates! :)

[1fritz]

I just tried it with a few olive trees. I got the same weird decimal numbers as you are getting.

Mine works fine tried some walnt trees harvest and sell got 43 coins for each. Nothing odd.

If you saved some of the snow patches from last year you can do it yourself. Its just like the sand we got to go with the beach scene... I am sure we will be getting the snow patches this year again, wait and you will be rewarded....

[Texas Belle]

Keeping your storage cleaned up is a requirement no matter what. I was talking about a problem with selling items directly from the field, using the harvest & sell option instead of the harvest & store option. It is doing strange things. I get the warning about my storage being full just about every day now. The warning is working fine the sell option is what is messed up, as long as I keep on top of cleaning my storage I have never lost anything.

Did you not get the warning and that is what led to you loosing your harvest?

I got the warning when I came in to play, but silly me thought "oh I can harvest and then clean out and post facilities" NOT - so now I heed immediately when I see that warning even if I have to harvest purple grapes and they are almost ready, lol

[ant carter]

I've never received a message that my storage was full?? I sell off surplus every time I harvest a crop or facility. So, I'm a little confused now.

i had that come saying i had to sell some of my stored goods

[nukacola94]

Hitting that level 115 ceiling real fast...need that farm 6 to expand and develop on. Just love this game. Just love you guys & gals at Slashkey. You really know how to keep it fresh. Not like that other wannabe farm game (who's it made by? Zyngers? something like that.) anyway, not very memorable. Are they? Can't wait to see what comes out in the next release! Well, back to the old farm. The crops won't wait all day, will they?

[Simera]

Anyone bet the Automatic-Flower-Waterer-Facility will show up on the next up-grade, together with farm no. 6??

I'd pay FC with pleasure if it did!!

Having a lot of flowers to water, and only one neighbour is helping out with watering.

I really, really need that Facility!!

The new flowers are soooo beautiful, too. So I've started to fill up on all 5 farms now, and I'm thinking of changing all the "old" flowers on farm no. 1, too.

And that's me saying so, that swore I'd never use any real money for items!!!

So look at me now . . . an addict!!! Spending real money for fasilities and such :)

Hi

My name is Charlie and I am a Farm Town Addict - it's been 3 mins since I last logged into Farm Town.... it has been 2 hours since I last checked the Forum for a "New Release".

My children even recognise when I am on one of my own farms - my husband just sighs .... my family hide their laptops when I come to visit :eek:

I've asked my Farm Town friends to send me a message if the upgrade comes out when I am at work - and subscribed on my Mobile Phone so that I can check this. Do you all think I need some therapy or is this completely normal behaviour - in your honest opinion? :p

We have never been disappointed with the upgrades that Raul and the team have given us so far and I'm pretty sure we won't be this time ... as my Mum would say - good things come to those who wait .... but I'm beginning to act like my four year old and I DON'T WANT TO WAIT ANY MORE :D

Sorry that you are having so many problems with the game. If you have already tried all of the standard things I am not sure what else to do. If I have issue usually doing those things solve the problem. You might have one of the mods check your farm just in case before you go spending a bunch of money to take your system to the repair shop. I hope that you get it sorted out quickly so that you can play. :)

[speedmonkey]

This isn't just some hair brained theory I pulled out of my butt. It is a problem that has been bugging me since the last upgrade and using my husbands account as a hired plower I worked it out on my farm. I am not talking about plowing under paths, which if there is room someone could do, I am talking about the game treating flowers as if they were wasted crops and allowing them to be plowed. I agree that people should not be able to plow where there are not already plots. That is why I a hoping the developers see that this may be something to look at so it can be coded out of the game.

I never assumed that it was some hair brained theory that you pulled out of your butt. As I said, I have never seen this particular issue before. But new players come in this forum and read things that say stuff like if you want more plots just let people plow over your flowers! It is important that they know that this can lead to data corruption and that it is not the recommended way to play the game. I have never found that anyone, even since the update, can plow over my dead flowers. Again, my goal was to make it clear to new players that come here seeking guidance that allowing people to purposely plow over your flowers can create serious issue. I hope that your issue gets addressed and corrected. There is a higher likelihood that the developers will be able to address the issue if it is posted in the help and support section of the forum. That is the official thread for problems within the game and the only place they look to see what needs addressing.

[bppop14@yahoo.com]

This is off subject, and I apologize. What is with the layering of fields. Seems that you can plant a field then plow over it and plant again. Something like that. One of the friends does this and has sent instructions via email to another friend. This neighbor also subscribes to Facegamer.com to get free stuff. Seems to me that if you do that sort of thing you are cheating yourself.
Sorry for interrupting the thread.

The devs do not condone layering as it can mess up your farm, nor do they condone the gift link cheats.

Layering is strongly discouraged. If anyone does it, they do so at their own risk. Layering can lead to data corruption and in worst case scenarios loss of your entire farm. I do not know the official stand on using outside sites to get items but it seems to me that it is a personal choice that each person will have a different opinion on.

[dottyF]

Surprised none of you freaked out when you saw Raul on about 1/2 hour ago...but he just popped on and off to check on something.
Maybe he was checking to see how many people were hanging around waiting for an update.:p

[Ginasue1]

I was one of those who layered. Yes I layered crops and I layerd trees, and ended up with lots of problems on my farms.

If you go look at my farms now, you will see that not one tree is layered, and even though you can't tell the fields aren't layered either.

Did I have problems, you bet your bitty I did.

[SunnyD]

I Used to layer trees over fields but wow that really played up my farm and I had people that i had hired to harvest that kept getting booted off my farms so i re did all my farms.... and using the sites that you get cheats from is also strongly discouraged as with many other sites that are for cheats you are in danger of getting a virus.. not speaking of any specific site as I have no idea i have been told of them and about other game cheats to help you harvest fast and that kind of stuff frankly to me you are taking a major chance with your expensive computer if you do that kind of thing... I actually had a neighbor that never hired me again because i refused to download a cheat to make me faster at harvesting for her.......oh well........

The official stand on that is that it is a cheat. If by chance someone reports you it can result in you losing your Facebook account. It has happened, although I don't know how often.

I know that it also takes wood for the jewelry box and frames. What kind of wood? What tree do i need. and is there any other material that i will need as well? thanks....

Check out the game guide. Chapter 13 is facilities and it breaks down each facility in what each product needs and how much you'll get from it.

thank you!

You're welcome :)

:confused: It's been TEN DAYS since you announced Farm #6 was "comming", Raul! Ten long agonizing frustrating days planning what we will do with our newest toy. And still we wait -- checking the increasingly crowded real estate office 5 and 6 times a day; dropping into the Forum hoping, hoping, hoping!

Please, PLEASE, PLEASE release Farm #6 and put us all out of our misery. You've turned us all into addicts, promised us a new "fix", and then you just dangle it out there while we tremble and quake with delirium tremens! Be kind to your poor addicted followers, PLEASE?

LOL - you can't possibly have been playing waaaay back when we went for FOUR whole months without a word from the devs, let along any upgrades. Believe me we were all hanging out, and now consider 10 days to be a mere drop in the bucket .... and from my point of view quite a reasonable wait too.

hey, the more time they take, the more time to rack up some coins to purchase the farm and expansions without leaving a major hole in our bank.

[Deanna J. Lloyd]

:)Actually, I think you have about a month's experience on me. I started when there were only 40 levels, the Big Red Mansion was the creme de la creme, and there was no second farm -- and I was quite happy!!! I was working away, climbing up the levels, hoping to to get my own red mansion.;)

Then -- bang -- Farm #2. :D WOW!! Double the possibilities. Double the ways to make it to the next level!!! I was stoked!!! I even made it almost to 40 before the levels went to 60.

And then the devs went on a binge. Every time I turned around, there was a nifty new mansion -- and the facilities?!!! PayPal was making a killing off me, I'm sure, all the FT$ I bought so I could get the newest toy.

So I'm impatient! So what?! We waited 10 days for Farm #5 -- and we were all groaning in labor. So now it's time to groan and whine and whimper and cry for our next fix. I LOVE FARM TOWN & I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT!!! :D :cool: I'm cool with that! Are you?!

You mean 34 levels? Never a time when it was just level 40 :)

I know that it also takes wood for the jewelry box and frames. What kind of wood? What tree do i need. and is there any other material that i will need as well? thanks....

The simple and straight-forward answer to that is OAK. You need ONE OAK PILE for the Picture Frame and ONE OAK PILE for the Jewelry Box. That's one per batch. :cool:

Don't know why someone didn't just tell you that in the first place! :rolleyes:

[Deanna J. Lloyd]

Maybe it was 44 Levels! Don't think I was around when it was just 34. Started in August 2009.

Because she had more info she needed and the Game Guide had all that info (plus she might want to go back later and look at other stuff) and the Game Guide is a great source of info everyone should know about. Teaching her to help herself ;)

[Double T Dude Ranch]

Maybe it was 44 Levels! Don't think I was around when it was just 34. Started in August 2009.

It was levels 1-34. Then they added it to 60. Then to 90. Then to 100. Then 115. Ack my head is filled with useless info lol.

[ImTznU]

You mean 34 levels? Never a time when it was just level 40 :)

LOL Was wondering what the hec I missed!? I remembered only 34 levels also in the beginning. I have heard a few people mention 40 and have thought hmmmm. LOL

I know that it also takes wood for the jewelry box and frames. What kind of wood? What tree do i need. and is there any other material that i will need as well? thanks....

I am going to answer your question because I also "stocked up" before buying my jewelry store. You need oak for both the frames and the box. And more importantly, do not stock up too much. It does not seem like the store can keep up with the mine. I have tried to max out and have so much gold, silver, and diamonds left, and more coming all the time. It is likely because I stocked up a little too long, lol. I love having too much gold.

[lcswdonna]

Lol well I don't know about what they are thinking but I do know for 100% fact it was 34 levels to start with :)

34 is correct, there were never 40. I never thought I would reach 34....lol. With the facilities, the exp keeps piling on.

[Double T Dude Ranch]

Now thinking about it, 34 seems so small and so long ago!

[Farmer Jennifer Dawn]

Because she had more info she needed and the Game Guide had all that info (plus she might want to go back later and look at other stuff) and the Game Guide is a great source of info everyone should know about. Teaching her to help herself ;)

true. i didn't even think of looking at the game guide. now i know and can make an educated decision on what future facilities i would like to purchase

[ImTznU]

Lol well I don't know about what they are thinking but I do know for 100% fact it was 34 levels to start with :)

Yep! I also know that is a fact! LOL

[ImTznU]

34 is correct, there were never 40. I never thought I would reach 34....lol. With the facilities, the exp keeps piling on.

OMG me either! In fact I can remember my HUGEST goal and at first I played day and night feverishly to get to level 20 something so I could get water!! I wanted the rivers soo bad! lol They were the cat's meow in my book, lol other than the red mansion. LOL even more funny was very first time I signed on and went to the store and seen the cost of a little tiny house, I thought good lord how will I ever have enough coin for that!!? LOL

[TribalCat]

Does anyone remember exactly when FT started? I remember when 34 was the highest level you could get, but I don't remember when the game first rolled out.

[HelenJS22]

Maybe it was 44 Levels! Don't think I was around when it was just 34. Started in August 2009.

Yep, originally it was 34 levels - I started in early March 2009 - and I think it took us about 30,000 points to climb from level 33 to 34. That was a real marathon; I was so sick of the sight of grapes which was the shortest time frame crop at the time. We had to plow one by one for ourselves and wait while our avatar kept up with us :(. We really forget how spoilt we are now.

You might even of thought the avatar keeping up with ya all i a row was bad enough, BUT if you dared to miss click out of order!! LOOK OuT then the avatar would practically make circles around the farm to come back to the right spot. lol oh my!

[Lavenda]

yes, many a time back in the day when my avatar would take the scenic route to plow or plant a field just two places away from where I was... and for me it was the hedges, stone path and stone fences that I really really wanted!

[Lorraine Millett Snyder]

I keep forgetting that this won't delete plowed fields - they have to be harvested or spoiled. . .
Just wondering why you had to buy 3 of them my tree shaker and chain saw moves to the other farms with me .....or put things in storage until next farm .Just wondering

[Scarlet]

Does anyone remember exactly when FT started? I remember when 34 was the highest level you could get, but I don't remember when the game first rolled out.

I joined the forum in early February 2009; the game had been out a couple of weeks - possibly a month - then.

I too remember the original level 34 with those huge XP gaps a the top of it. Then the devs rejigged the levels and some of those on level 34 ended up on about level 80. And the top crop was coffee...

I love reading all this history. I didn't find the game until late July, 2009, but I've been an avid fan ever since. I don't remember what the top level was then but the red mansion was definitely the creme de la creme and it took FOREVER to get enough coins and levels to get there. It was wonderful to have the carrot in front of your nose, though. Actually, I never was a huge fan of the red mansion so I never even bought one but it was still a cool goal to strive for.

BTW, I've been hanging out at the Realtor Office a lot lately (wonder why???) and I get a kick out of looking at the backdrop in there because that's the way our farms USED to look. The original scarecrow - original hay bales, etc. It was great "back then" but all looks pretty comical now. FT has come a long way!

I also never got the Red Mansion. Didn't care for it that much, but I remember everyone wanting one.

[crjangel]

This game is great BUT there is 2 much clicking involved. Also I have over 200 million dollars, five farms, all the facilities, and am at the top level 115 with no where 2 go. Why should I play anymore? It is boring.

[LoreneC]

34 is correct, there were never 40. I never thought I would reach 34....lol. With the facilities, the exp keeps piling on.

When they changed the levels from 34 to 60 they also changed the number of XPs required to reach levels. This changed the level to buy the mansion from 34 to 40, even though the number of XPs to purchase the mansion remained the same. I think this is why some people think at one time Level 40 was the highest. Just speculating of course!

[dottyF]

I have a question about overlapping over plowing etc. I understand from reading that overplowing etc can mess up your data and cause problems. My question is what about sitting buildings on sand, asphalt etc. Is that the same thing?

[SunnyD]

I have a question about overlapping over plowing etc. I understand from reading that overplowing etc can mess up your data and cause problems. My question is what about sitting buildings on sand, asphalt etc. Is that the same thing?

My understanding is that any kind of over lapping, or stacking can cause that. I am not positive though. I think it does for some and not others is why. I know that when I layered trees over my plowed and sowed fields that caused me major troubles and disconnects...Also layering buildings over my crops caused major troubles....But...I have gone to only having one layer of crops instead of layering for a while and still have the same troubles I have now. so Not sure how much trouble that has caused me. I would love for a a moderator to check to see if i have "corrupt game data". I have continuous disconnects and error x025 ... and constantly my "Flash Player" crashes. I did all the clean up on my computer of files and all that. NO help.... Honestly I have several times...

sorry to say but if your bored.even when they add new levels again you will be bored again.. also the developers said new land and levels coming soon

[Betty Underdahl]

*****Please see post launch fixes at the end*****

Hey There,

We just released a new version of the game with the following features and bug fixes:

1. 13 New Flowers: 10 in the store and 3 in the gift page. All flowers were created by Debbie (a FarmTown player and community member) and donated to the FarmTown game, many thanks to her.

2. Log Truck with Chainsaw (FC): Allows you to chop up to 32 trees at a time, it works very similar to the treeshaker tool.

3. Default Farm Selection: When clicking on the farm title text, you will see a new checkbox in that window to select that current farm as your default farm. The default farm will be the farm where you and your friends will be landing on when visiting you.

4. Show Decorations: We added this new option to the Option Window (top right tool icon) to make it easier for you to hide all decorations at once, including fences.

5. 'Decorations' category restructured: The store 'Decorations' category have now been divided in 5:

Farming Decor - All decorations that you would naturally expect to see in a farm
Motion - All items with a purpose or transportation of humans or any other stuff. Previous giftable fathers day items like golf carts, ATV and hot rods have been added to this category
Furniture - All furnitures
Fun - All items with a fun purpuse. All fathers day sport items have been added to this category
Other - The rest of the old 'Decorations' category. Previous mothers day sculptures have been added to this category and to the Topiaries

6. Mineral Mine (coins): Allows you to produce silver, gold and diamonds.

7. Jewelry Factory (FC): Allows you to produce jewels:

Earring
Necklace
Photo Frame with embeded jewelry
Ring
Watch
Jewelry Box with embeded jewelry

8. Pasta Factory (coins): Allows you to produce uncooked pasta:

Spaghetti
Macaroni
Fettuccine
Linguine
Lasagne

9. Pasta Restaurant (FC): Allows you to produce salads and pasta dishes:

Caprese Salad
Caesar Chicken Salad
Garden Salad
Macaroni and Cheese
Spaghetti with Meatballs
Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo
Seafood Linguine
Meat Lasagne

10. Tomato Sauce: Some Pasta Dishes requires Tomato Sauce which you can now make in the Food Preserver Factory.

11. Multitools and the 'Remove space between fields' setting: From now on, all multitools (except for the multiplower to be completed for the next release)will work as expected independent on the 'Remove space between fields' setting, before, setting/unsetting that option could make your multitools only do one field at a time for a while.

12. When hiring others, incorrect crop count on storage for fertilized crops: This bug should now be fixed, no need to refresh the game anymore to see the correct count.

13. Fences can now be selected and hidden without issues.

14. Harvest, Plow and Tool vertical toolbars now dissapear when you select a tool and start working.

15. Minor Changes: Horse Training Area now allows you to put some horses on it. Alternative views for facilities are now the default on the store, when you purchase them, you can always go back to the previous cartoonish look if you want to.

Farm 6 and new levels comming soon...

Enjoy!

*****Post launch fixes*****

- Big Bulldozer now deletes 3 types of fields, harvested fields, gone to waste and regular plow fields
- The Tools are not hidden when you hide all decorations
- There is a warning once per day, that alert you when you have decorations, buildings or other stuff hidden in the game, so you don't panic when you see all them gone without remembering why
- We discoreverd that the Horse Training Area item fix is not functioning as expected, this will take longer to fix, please ignore this functionality for the time being

Thanks

--Raul

Thank you so much for all you have did to make this game what it is. I do not look at it as a game it is my get away MY FARM LOL I love it. I have bought all the new tools the tree chopper also . I got flower harverter few days ago, it is great , boy I can hardly wait for farm 6 Thank you all for all your hard work

[ImTznU]

[FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Ahhhh yes very good observation! I bet your right.[/

[SunnyD]

I Used to kid around way back in the "Farm Town Olden Days" when my avatar would "Take the scenic route" to get to the other crops.... "So sorry miss Farmer my Avatar has ADHD" LOL we would have a chuckle...Remember that??? Or "OOPS my avatar forgot to take her meds today" LOL " do you have any Zoloft?

[Ginasue1]

I stopped all the layering, even building over plots, but today, was plowing and I have about 6 plots that just had the count down, but did nothing. LAYERING can cause problems even when you stop layering.

[Msunshine]

I guess "comming soon" takes longer than coming soon (heavy sigh). Probably a good thing, I have real peach trees to harvest and jam to make. Wish I could take my little tree shaker out and use it on my real trees, then I could get back to farming sooner.
Love this game! Trying to be patient waiting for farm 6 but my little avatars feet are very sore from running back and forth to the realtor office checking. Need new boots now too, worn holes in these. Happy Farming everyone!

[SunnyD]

wouldn't it be awesome if we get new clothes?? man i need to put some more patches on my overalls... my old patches have holes now........

[ChrissieD]

I'm happy to put up with patches on my patches and holes in my boots... what I'd really like is some proper 'Town' buildings... school, church, post office, more shops etc... even if they are only for decorative purposes (which is all I use current 'facilities' for anyway).

(Please Raul... pretty please!! x)

[Grumpa]

I also never got the Red Mansion. Didn't care for it that much, but I remember everyone wanting one.

I did get one. :)
Paid for it using Raspberries only. :eek:
Talking about a lot of raspberries. :D

[SunnyD]

I hated that red thing. i did get one but took it down and made a log cabin from the tool sheds and out houses........... looked pretty cool actually...... my first farm has the "Rustic Farm Appearance"

[Double T Dude Ranch]

Does anyone remember exactly when FT started? I remember when 34 was the highest level you could get, but I don't remember when the game first rolled out.
I think Feb. 10, 2009 or around there.

[jeanieNGMsfarm]

i still have my red mansion on my farm one lol.. it was the only time i made it to top level so its my trophy lol... im not worried about maxing levels since then lol i just enjoy the game now

[AMMC1959]

Thanks for the new facilities. Only problem is....I really need more farms. It's to the point have more facilities than field space to keep them all up and running. I am really starting to get bored since I can only produce so much for the facilities. Please make a farm 6 and 7. Before making any more facilities.

i think it came out in times before farm town... teehee

[SunnyD]

I am betting this is one reason they don't make announcements of up coming events....... can you imagine the laughs they are having at our inpatients.. not to mention the pressure they must be feeling.... especially with us all having axe's and chain saw's LOL

[Scarlet]

I think Feb. 10, 2009 or around there.

Before then: the forum started on 8 / 9 Feb, and i think I had been playing a couple of weeks before then.

[Ginasue1]

And all of us jumping up and down on that BIG BED in the Realtor's Office.

[servocrow]

i think it came out in times before farm town... teehee

What is this? The olden days?

:p

[jeanieNGMsfarm]

What is this? The olden days?

:p

that or im just way to bored right now haha

[speedmonkey]

Just wondering why you had to buy 3 of them my tree shaker and chain saw moves to the other farms with me .....or put things in storage until next farm .Just wondering

Many farmers buy multiple pieces of equipment so that we don't have to mess with putting things in storage and then waiting for storage to load every time we change farms and need our equipment. It was only in the last few updates that it became possible to move equipment without putting it into storage so a lot of us already had multiple plows, seeders, and harvesters.

[speedmonkey]

This game is great BUT there is 2 much clicking involved. Also I have over 200 million dollars, five farms, all the facilities, and am at the top level 115 with no where 2 go. Why should I play anymore? It is boring.

There is no way to play the game without clicking. There are hundreds of farmers at this point that have over 200 million, all five farms, all the facilities and are completely leveled out. New levels are in the works, as stated in the first post of this thread, as well as new farms. If you are bored now is that really going to change when the new update comes out. Before long you will have everything and be leveled out again so.......

[speedmonkey]

I'm happy to put up with patches on my patches and holes in my boots... what I'd really like is some proper 'Town' buildings... school, church, post office, more shops etc... even if they are only for decorative purposes (which is all I use current 'facilities' for anyway).

(Please Raul... pretty please!! x)

Why do you not use the facilities for what they are designed for? Just wondering, it seems odd to me to spend that kind of money on them and then not reap the rewards that they can offer.

[dottyF]

Well impatient like everyone else but I guess the wait is worth it because I should have enough coins to buy f6 without dipping into my savings.

I have coin savings. it was a goal I set so now I dont want to spend below it.

[StoneFace]

If you read the first post, Raul says farm 6 is coming soon. Patience people :)

How can we have patien(t)s when we don't have the hospital facility yet?

.

[dottyF]

I agree with an earlier poster. I would like to see more buildings (non facility) to build a town.

I have 1.7 Billion coins and over 4M XP. I play because I like it and the great group of neighbors I have come to know. We have a strong community and help each other out. But it's not for everyone. If you're bored and would rather be doing something else, no one is stopping you. Bye!

[Texas Belle]

Sorry that you are having so many problems with the game. If you have already tried all of the standard things I am not sure what else to do. If I have issue usually doing those things solve the problem. You might have one of the mods check your farm just in case before you go spending a bunch of money to take your system to the repair shop. I hope that you get it sorted out quickly so that you can play. :)

Should get a Mac, no problems with that system....
Have you tried downloading the upgrade and then shut down and coming back again (rebooting?). I know that when i d/l something on my IMac it tells me I have to "Restart" so that the program goes to wherever it has to go without me doing anything.
Just a thought, don't understand those other PCs at all, sorry.

[Texas Belle]

The official stand on that is that it is a cheat. If by chance someone reports you it can result in you losing your Facebook account. It has happened, although I don't know how often.

The guy is on everybody's wall and I particularly don't see any harm and getting a few more sacks of flour or a tree or a flower from it.... but darn he does not have tomatoes, or rice or corn flour when you most needed. The flour always comes in handy because you never have enough even now with the fertilizer. Of course DO NOT DEPEND on the (external site - name removed by Moderator) alone, harvest your crops and then go there if you don't have enough, its better than going to the market to work for someone....

You want clicking? You should go to Farmville, that is clicking place galore...
If you are bored, try changing flowers, putting your mansion or whatever on storage and buy another building, change trees. There are so many things you can do you never have to be bored. I remodel every once in a while and I love it. I am retired and those people that are addicts they don't know me, I bring my breakfast and lunch to the computer and keep on going. My husband retired too, has to come to the computer room to talk to me or call me on my cell phone. I do leave at supper time, but as soon as we finish and I clean up, is back to the 'puter.. I love this game and it is fun and never tire of the things we can do. I am waiting anxiously for farm 6, already have figured out what I want there...oh and I have 257 million and I am at level 115.
Please Raul, this week?

Hello there. I believe Old Goat is referring to farms that have crops layered.

Gift links though are not to be discussed or debated on the forum. The developers do not condone them.

If I have misunderstood what you are talking about, my sincerest apologies. :)

Oh yes forgot the great people you meet here and become your neighbors and help each other. Sometimes you cry with them and you laugh with them, the FT community is like family, try communicating with your neighbors you may be surprised and may start enjoying the game.

Have you tried downloading the upgrade and then shut down and coming back again (rebooting?). I know that when i d/l something on my IMac it tells me I have to "Restart" so that the program goes to wherever it has to go without me doing anything.
Just a thought, don't understand those other PCs at all, sorry.

LOL i have done all the current fixes.... My SIL is a computer nut and we do have two IMAC's a lap top and a desk top....LOL soooooooooo......... now what? i also have a dell which i am on most of the time as all my Paint progies are on that one. I also have a HP but need a modem for that one......

[Ginasue1]

You want clicking? You should go to Farmville, that is clicking place galore...
If you are bored, try changing flowers, putting your mansion or whatever on storage and buy another building, change trees. There are so many things you can do you never have to be bored. I remodel every once in a while and I love it. I am retired and those people that are addicts they don't know me, I bring my breakfast and lunch to the computer and keep on going. My husband retired too, has to come to the computer room to talk to me or call me on my cell phone. I do leave at supper time, but as soon as we finish and I clean up, is back to the 'puter.. I love this game and it is fun and never tire of the things we can do. I am waiting anxiously for farm 6, already have figured out what I want there...oh and I have 257 million and I am at level 115.
Please Raul, this week?

Belle, I get up at 5:15, get my grandson up for school. Turn on computer. Sit down and get on Farm Town. Wave to Grandson as he goes out the door.

Between 7-8 my mom gets up and I get her breakfast. Get her settled in her chair, and go back to computer.

12 noon, give Mom her lunch. Go back to computer

4 pm, start making dinner. Eat then back to computer

9:30 go to bed.

Hello there. I believe Old Goat is referring to farms that have crops layered.

Gift links though are not to be discussed or debated on the forum. The developers do not condone them.

If I have misunderstood what you are talking about, my sincerest apologies. :)

I am even sorry I said that, and yes I believe i misunderstood Old Goat. My sincere apology to you. And the other subject will never be mentioned again.
Thanks

Oh Sunny D, that was not meant for you but the lady that had the problem with the Flash program. I do have HP laptop but that one is when we travel to keep up with things. I use my IMAC all the time here at home. I worked for Dept of Defense and have been with computers since 1973 give or take and our first program was developed "supposedly" by AT&T. It was a drop down menu and after all the computers started coming out, guess which was the very first one to have the drop down menus but Apple, so maybe DoD had been working with Mr. Jobs for a while, lol
Our computers did not have a brand name, they were just there.

On another down memory lane note, I have been a member of FT since March 19, 2009 and never did like the mansion much either, mine is on storage, lol

You sound like me, are we addicted to this game or what? Glad to have company. Last night couldn't sleep and thought I am going to computer, started getting up and my husband said, "you are not going to the computer, are you?" So read instead, but my mind was here thinking Raul is going to do something and I am not there, lol

[Ginasue1]

Addticed to this game, not in a million years, well maybe 100 years, ok, 50 years. Nope that's not right either, how about ever day.

[ChrissieD]

Why do you not use the facilities for what they are designed for? Just wondering, it seems odd to me to spend that kind of money on them and then not reap the rewards that they can offer.

I enjoy the designing and growing side of the game... making sandwiches, pizzas, cheese etc just doesn't appeal to me... and as for sewing... putting a button is my limit ;)

[Weidknecht]

I would like more storage space. I would love more farms. I would like to be able to get yeast faster. I would like to be able to gift tomatoes. Thank you for all you do. I love the game.

[Pisces4444]

I'm trying to go into the Realtor's Office just now and it doesn't say "already have all upgrades". Just nothing. Do you think they are working on loading the sixth farm????????????????????????????????????????

[Mr. H]

I've noticed the same thing on my frequent trips there. Not sure if it means anything.

[melizabeth5]

I Used to kid around way back in the "Farm Town Olden Days" when my avatar would "Take the scenic route" to get to the other crops.... "So sorry miss Farmer my Avatar has ADHD" LOL we would have a chuckle...Remember that??? Or "OOPS my avatar forgot to take her meds today" LOL " do you have any Zoloft?

Oh, do I remember..."Sorry, don't know that crazy woman running all over your farm."

[ChrissieD]

No, not yet... just checked and I got the 'you already have all the upgrades' message.

[HelenJS22]

LOL - says they, as they sit twiddling their thumbs nervously at their computer. Think I go make a coffee to steady my nerves. Already have a name ready to go for farm no. 6.

WHAT !?!?!? You're going to bed at 9.30pm .... shock, horror!! That's when the other countries kick in with their facilities to be visited and crops to be harvested etc. etc. etc. :D

My husband guilts me out around midnight with 'lift your hands from the keyboard and walk away from the computer ... your farm will still be there in the morning.

hehe My cat does that to me. After being ignored for a couple of hours, he walks over and grabs my arm to pull it away from the keyboard. Then he bites me :)

"Soon" is not feeling so "soon" anymore...

My cat just stretches out across the keyboard!

One of my kitties is very polite. As I sit rapt in my computer chair, she stands up against the chair arm, reaches out with her paw and taps my gently. If that does not work, she does it again, an imploring look on her face.

Her little sister, on the other hand, sits by my chair and squeaks at me, and their brother simply hurls himself into my arms and stares me in the face.

[cilla38]

thank you Raul for the goodies now I want more PLEASE

Well, I went their and it came up with you have all the upgrades you need.

I sure hope so I'm getting really tired of checking....Was jus going to crawl under the big bed till tomorrow and see what happens:) then.

[Taz D]

Is the Inn ever going to have a practical use? Like maybe for hiring and getting hired instead of in the market?

[speedmonkey]

I enjoy the designing and growing side of the game... making sandwiches, pizzas, cheese etc just doesn't appeal to me... and as for sewing... putting a button is my limit ;)

OK that makes sense. I guess I should avoid asking questions that have obvious answers. Might be beneficial if I wait until fully awake before asking questions! :)

So read instead, but my mind was here thinking Raul is going to do something and I am not there, lol

I usually have my farm open from the time I get up until the time I go to bed. Heaven forbid we have to go anywhere. If I can't access my farm I have my kindle in hand reading through the forum. Imagine my excitement when I discovered that I got excellent wireless coverage on my kindle during an entire 200 mile road trip! I am certain that I have officially become a Farm Town addict. I bug my family to help me harvest and plow all the time. If I can't find a neighbor to help me harvest, I am instantly texting my sister! I literally fell asleep on my computer last night trying to get my flowers harvested at 4 AM :eek: ! Yet another night my husband had to literally take my computer away and send me to bed.

I guess that being an addict to such a wonderful game is better than being addicted to the any one of the other more dangerous things out there!

[speedmonkey]

Farm 6 is already in the works. I have found that if I am patient enough I can get enough yeast to do everything that needs done if I just stockpile it for a few days without using any of it. The same thing with my honey, lobsters, and even my tomatoes. Right after we got the manure spreader I planted all five of my farms in tomatoes, fertilized and waited patiently for them to be ready. I just used the last of my tomatoes tonight and that is with keeping most of my facilities fully stocked!

Any item that we require lots of (wheat, tomatoes, yeast, corn...etc) I have discovered that if I practice a little patients I can gather enough to get on top of production and then do not require so many at once all the time. If I can get my facilities maxed out and then make sure that I don't let them get to empty I can plant and harvest at a fairly normal rate instead of trying to rush around gathering up enough stuff to keep my factories producing. If all else fails I know that I can always get some of what I need working for others, this being a social game, I find that many people are willing to help you get what you need!

I got one up on that I think. I purchased the new EVO phone with a mobile hotspot that allows for 8 devices to have wireless internet through the phone. On a recent trip from Indiana to Southern Florida my wife and I were on Farmtown all the way down and back. Fried the batteries in the wireless mouse though and had to buy new ones. LOL I'm really addicted also. HAPPY FARMING!

Also I am betting that the update comes this weekend, as I will be away 4 days and unable to get on. I can feel the shakes coming on already :eek:

[SunnyD]

I'm such a dope.......... just realized now that we have the Fuel refinery i could get that big harvester and use it ........ DUH!! i stayed away from it cause it uses fuel and normally i hire people LOL

[speedmonkey]

:mad: Just a momentary rant. I was just in the market place, this girl comes in and says "who wants to harvest and plow." She then says "I hire only one, whoever wants it call my name." So I say her name, she says, if you want it go to my farm and I will hire you." So I go to her farm and she pops in and says "Hahahaha, its only a joke you idiot, hahaha! There was no work to be done, and she was so very rude. I hope that using the report feature in the game works. I reported her butt as fast as I could click on her, which she tried to avoid by moving all over the place and then leaving. HA HA to her, I got her and I hope she losses her account for doing it!



She probably reported me to cause I got upset :(

EDIT - OMG after a break from the game and some sleep this sounds almost as childish as the incident was! Please forgive my momentary lack of adult behavior! :eek:

Farmer name is ********, if you see her around run for cover, DO NOT WORK FOR THIS FARMER!

Just a word of warning here: whilst this kind of behaviour in the game is indeed annoying, it does not warrant use of the report button.

'Report' should be reserved for more serious cases where players are using abusive language, making racist comments, using threats, etc. In a case such as you describe, the ignore button is the better option. It will remove the person from your game and you will not have to deal with them again.

Use of the report button for less serious 'offences' can result in your own account being placed under review.

Secondly: I have removed the player's avatar name from your post. Naming players on the forum is counter-productive, as there could be thousands of players with the same name, and it's unfair to the majority who play the game in a reasonable manner.

Hope you don't mind my using your post to make these points, but this is something that does come up quite often, and many players are not aware of the difference between 'report' and 'ignore'.

Thanks. :)

Sorry Speed that this happened to you, and more sorry that it upset you so much. Honestly it is that of a childish prank. I frankly would not waste the energy on being upset over it, it is pure silliness. You can always put them on ignore. As for myself, when people say in the market to meet them on their farm for a job I never go lol I figure hey hire me here if ya want me to work. I have always thought that was an odd way of hiring. Anyway keep a smile and don't sweat the small stuff.

[Texas Belle]

Oh, do I remember..."Sorry, don't know that crazy woman running all over your farm."

And who can forget the "I'm busy" sign. Still does it sometimes but not as much. Had to tell whoever hired me "she is worked out and needs time to recoup", LOL

Now I just go there and slap her silly, and she comes back to life, but like I said it's not that often that she tells me she is busy, busy doing what may I ask?

[ken953]

The MarketPlace will always be the MarketPlace full of Clowns, but you will meet a lot of good people also! You must laugh off all the jokers and make friends with the good hearted players.....Once upon a time there was this other person giving out an web url saying make farm cash and behold it was a porn site!
I'm sure somebody did report them but for me ignore ignore ignore button..foolish of me to even check out that web address!!

[amyorn]

How soon the 6th farm will be please? :D

And how long before we can upgrade sizes of farms? I am at level 85. I should be able to make my farm larger. Is it true that you need 35 neighbors to upgrade?

[Rob T]

And how long before we can upgrade sizes of farms? I am at level 85. I should be able to make my farm larger. Is it true that you need 35 neighbors to upgrade?

Farm 3 is the only one that requires neighbors to buy and expand, which is 30 neighbors not 35. If you goto the realtors, it will tell you what expansions you may get, the levels required, the price etc (unless you use farmcash then nothing else is required)

[piccpete]

It was levels 1-34. Then they added it to 60. Then to 90. Then to 100. Then 115. Ack my head is filled with useless info lol.

Alright, lets have some REAL history, DoubleT! :p
A nice time-line of the significant events in the history of "Our Game" should be somewhere in the "Users Manual"!! (a chapter entitled "Background"?)
Inquiring minds wanna know!

FT began Feb 2009?
What were the appx dates of the level upgrades?
And... the appx dates of the addition of Farms 2, 3, 4, 5?
Of Farm Cash?
Of Factories?!

THANK YOU DEVS AND MODS! hugs to you all, and to those forum contributors who really add to it!
Nothing matches the wonderful graphics in this game!! :D

Most of that information can be found right here in this section if you read the past update threads. DT missed a level upgreade it was 34 60 80 90 100 115.

[piccpete]

yes, many a time back in the day when my avatar would take the scenic route to plow or plant a field just two places away from where I was... and for me it was the hedges, stone path and stone fences that I really really wanted!

Yes, our avatar would go walkabout. (Is that how you Brits say it?) And when the farm took soooo long to load, and the advice here on the forum was to get RID of a lot of hedges!!! :eek:
Planning design of that one farm was such a big thing!!! Using sand paths to "paste" pieces of water together, or put squirrel in wheelbarrow. Would stay up all night to construct a waterfall!

[userm5119]

ok i missed something i guess. what is the horse training all about lol
