If the first Claas mods to see the light of day on Farming Simulator 19 were simply not functional, the 2 released this week are fully functional. The Axion 900 series and Xerion 4000 to 5000 come with all the options.
The Axion 900. This is a mod that left us with a bitter taste last December since the mod had leaked before being properly integrated. Result, either the game crashed, or the mod did not appear in the catalog. In short, you will understand, it's ancient history, and this Claas returns today with its big brothers the Xerion 4000, 4500 and 5000.
This is a conversion of mods already present in Farming Simulator 17. Understand by this that if the features are there, the models are vintage. Correct on the outside, the cabin views are less shiny, with low-poly (too) ruffles and slobbery textures. Hopefully the official Claas mods at least fix this aspect.
For options, Axion and Xerion come with the full range of wheel configurations. Double, balance weights, wide tires, Michelin range… the Xerion also has weight to be placed on the chassis. Ingame, the models take full advantage of the Giants Engine 8 and its seductive renderings.
Peculiarities of the Xerions, they have the possibility of switching to 2 or 4 directional wheels, but also to use crabbing to the left or to the right. Too bad the soil compaction is not taken into account by FS. The cab can also be reversed, rotating on itself 180 °.
