Not too sure what the problem is. The title says you cannot download the map but your comment suggests the map is not loading in the game? Why are you unzipping the map? Just drop the zipped map download into your mods folder, it should then appear in your game.

Also the grain silo and the hayloft. Bauer is aware of this and will be addressing it in a future update.
In the meantime, if you really need it gone you can open your save game placeables.xml with a text editor such as notepad++ and simply remove these items. The grain silo is around line number 363 and is called the farma 500. You would remove everything between the <placeable and the </placeable> tags. In my case lines 363 -370. Save the file and reopen the game and you should be good. The bunker silo is the Lizard bunkerSiloLarge, mine is line number 1089 and the hayloft is hayloft around line number 1327. Keep in mind the line number location may be a few off depending on what is in your game save.
I understand doing this kind of thing isn’t for everyone, it can seem daunting, but it is actually quite easy. It is nice to have control over your maps and game in general beyond what you can do through the game. If you are nervous about this start a new game save of RMR and edit that one to make sure you got it right. That way you don’t bork your save. Alternatly, simply copy the placeables.xml before you edit and paste it somewhere safe. Then you can just revert back.

Now THAT is a strange one! I have never seen anything like that before. I am running the better contracts mod and never had any issues. When Giants gives a fertilizer contract I would imagine it is assumed it will be done with solid fertilizer even though there are other options. Certainly this is not a map related issue, nor would I think it is Giants. I think it is a mod issue.

Giants just released an update. Part of it was improvements to the “terrain occluder performance and map makers are advised to open and save their maps in GE after this update.” This comes via Farmer Klein on his “free content update #6 video” on youtube. He does not cite where he gets this information and I had no luck searching Giants site, but there it is…I reckon the update borked your maps…

Haven’t really done enough to say yet. Still no stones on 32 or 33 when plowed. The other field is still canola and showing as last growth stage, but aug is the last month to harvest canola on this growth calendar. Only did that plowing contract and a couple cultivating and havent really looked around yet. Crazy here too, probably wont get much time in today. Will report when/if anything big comes up. The shop spawn point is much better.

So I’m working the player farm fields on startup in Aug on the updated RMR map. I plow 32 and 33, lime 32 and had some overspray hit 33. As I was still plowing (ai) I went back over the lime and…it didn’t disappear! Ah-ha! So I finished with my plow guy on 33 and decided to send him down on a contract. Field 47 needs plowing, cool. I get down there and it is harvested and limed! Awesome, what will it do? It did NOT plow in the lime. It plows, but the lime is still there, as usual. Okay, I got this figured out now, you simply can’t plow lime with the update. To prove it I went on elmcreek, a fresh save, and bought a field, plowed in half, limed it all and…I plowed in the lime over both the plowed and unplowed texture… 🙁
I have a loaded mods folder, I could start a game with an empty one, but I am pretty convinced Giants has something going on here. Bauer is right, I have YET to see an update that didn’t bork something…

Just butting in, this sounds like the same issue I found on RMR in just one field too. The field was already limed, I took a plowing contract on it. It did plow, and it showed plowed and I collected on the contract, but the field state still showed a lime texture, though it appeared lighter. But…that may have just been the plowed ground underneath causing that illusion. I have not ran into this since, but I really have not been playing too much except RMR and I am doing my own thing there. So yeah, what if it is a Giants update issue? I wouldn’t rule that out, maybe experiment some more?
