With update 0.9.8 we want to offer you more immersion and gameplay. Therefore, we have added environment sounds to this version. This means you can hear various sounds on the Albergtal map, which makes the game feel more realistic. The birdsong, rain and wind sounds are some examples. In addition, your character has now been given movement noise, which also differs depending on ground types. This is completed by sounds that attract and scare away animals.
The Albergtal Map was further updated. The vehicle trader now has tractors in his showroom and the sewage plant has been made a bit nicer. The farmhouse and all buildings have been reworked and got a more realistic look. The barn is now finally a barn and does not look so clinically anymore. The farmhouse now has automatic opening doors and the annex and garage can now be used to park vehicles. Furthermore, new bushes have been placed on the Albergtal map which are also seasonable.
An update to the current PhysX 4.1 version is also included in this update. This fixed the shaking in light vehicles (AI traffic).
Furthermore, many bugfixes have been included in this update. All changes can be found in detail in the changelog.
There will be a status update at the end of July and end of August until V1 in September. We are currently working full steam ahead on the completion of the V1 and will introduce to you some of the content of the V1 in the upcoming status updates.

- "Cattle and Crops"-SteamOS [35.9 M]
- Professional Farmer: Cattle and Crops - Digital Supporter Pack
You have the choice: control the vehicles yourself and experience realistic driving or leave the work to your employees, lean back and enjoy the field ballet.
Highly detailed machinery, realistic harvesting methods, original sounds and an authentic vehicle physics system offer you a compelling experience in Cattle and Crops.
Experience the varied everyday life of a farmer. Choose between a story mode or free play. The game also provides additional tutorial missions to make you familiar with the simulation.
Hire employees to cultivate your fields, or to assist you when you’re harvesting. You can delegate tasks with your calendar and watch your employees do their job or take care of the work in front of you on your own. Cattle and Crops provides a complex employee system where the workers take care not to damage the harvest.
Skillfully avoid unnecessary driving tracks on the field to keep soil compaction low so your plants can spread their roots in the loose soil to maximize the yield.
Take care of your crops so don’t hang their heads and make your fields prosper.
Plant growth (using the real BBCH scale) is based on multiple soil attributes like moisture, pH value, temperature, sunshine hours, NPK fertilizer and diseases.
Gather the harvest at the right time and try not to get stuck in the mud when it’s raining.
Cattle and Crops offers a range of big, well known industry brands such as CLAAS, Köckerling, Lemken, Mercedes-Benz and a lot more.
Extend the game with your own vehicles, implements and maps. We’re providing you with all the tools you need for it.
