Contact

Email contact@gramshift.com in English or Japanese. We reply within 7 business days, usually sooner. Please include your Windows version, your Stream Deck app version, the version of the game (Steam, GIANTS or Microsoft Store / Xbox app), the text of the "Status" line in the key's settings, and, if possible, a photo or screenshot of the key. Ideas for new keys are welcome too: we add the most-requested ones in the next version.

Getting started

  1. Open the downloaded plugin file. The Stream Deck app installs it and offers a ready-made profile for your Stream Deck (MK.2, XL, Neo or +).
  2. Select a Field Deck key, paste your license key in its settings and choose Activate.
  3. Close the game, then press Install under Companion mod in the key's settings. The plugin puts FS25_FieldDeck.zip into the mods folder of your game folder.
  4. Start Farming Simulator 25. When you load your savegame, tick Field Deck in the mod list. For a new savegame, tick it when you choose the mods.
  5. Play. The keys show your vehicle and farm, and a press on a switch key switches it in the game.

If a key shows OLD MOD after an update of the plugin, close the game and press Update in the key's settings. Remove takes the mod out of the mods folder again.

Before you uninstall the plugin, close the game and press Remove in a key's settings: uninstalling the plugin from the Stream Deck app leaves the mod in your mods folder.

Every key has a Look setting: Classic, Neon, Ring, Bars or Solid. The values and what their colors mean stay the same in every look. Turn on Use my own color to give a key a color of your own.

Showcase (in a key's settings) fills every key with sample values marked SAMPLE, for a look at your layout without the game. While it is on, no key sends anything to the game. Turn it off to play.

Every switch key has the same press settings: Key (empty sends the keyboard key set in the game's Controls; type a key such as F, Ctrl+F, Num5 or Space to send that instead), Safety (send keys only while the game is the active window, on by default) and Game program. The Status line shows what the key reads and the last press.

Questions

I press a switch key and nothing happens in the game.

Open the key's settings and read the Status line: it says what the last press sent, or why it was not sent. The press goes to the game only while its window is in front (Safety). A control that has only a mouse or controller button needs a keyboard key: give it one in the game's Controls, or type a key under Key in the key's settings. If you run the game as administrator, Windows blocks keys from Stream Deck: start the game normally.

Do I have to tell the plugin my key bindings?

No. A press sends the keyboard key set in the game's Controls, including keys you changed yourself; the plugin reads them from the game folder.

The Engine key does not start the engine.

The game starts the engine by itself while Automatic Motor Start is on in its settings. Turn it off there to start and stop the engine from the key.

The keys show NO GAME while I play.

Field Deck has to be ticked in the mod list of the savegame you play. Each savegame keeps its own list. If you use a game folder of your own, type it under Game folder so the plugin looks in the same mods folder as the game.

Which versions of the game does it work with?

Farming Simulator 25 on Windows PC: the Steam and GIANTS versions keep the game folder in Documents\My Games\FarmingSimulator2025, and the plugin also finds the folder of the Microsoft Store / Xbox app version by itself. The console versions are not supported.

What does the companion mod do?

It reads what the keys show from the game (your vehicle, its fill level, the farm's money, time, weather and workers) and writes it to a small file in the game folder (modSettings\FS25_FieldDeck\live.json) four times a second. It adds nothing to your farm.
