Trophy guide

[ManiaWP]

This is incomplete and a work in progress. I am not a guide-writer so please excuse any mistakes in this. But this thread is to highlight my experiences with the game and to make a guide for anyone starting out. Note: This is purely about gaining trophies in the most efficient way possible. This is not a guide about how to play the game in the most authentic and/or enjoyable way.

 

I have also not platinum'd the game yet, so I will make additions and adjustments when I can. Please feel free to add corrections and I will edit this post with updates.

 

Step 1 - Collectibles

i) start a new game, select New Farmer, select Elmcreek, jump in the pickup and use this guide to find the 100 collectibles in the map

ii) start a new game, select New Farmer, select Haut-Beyleron, jump in the pickup and use this guide to find the 20 collectibles in the map

iii) start a new game, select New Farmer, select Erlengrat, jump in the pickup and use this guide to find the 10 collectibles in the map

Trophies: Pretty colourful, Game on, Cheese it

 

Step 2 - Shopping

i) start a new game, select Farm-Manager, select Elmcreek, follow this guide of saving/entering MP/buying farms/saving/enter SP : repeat, to attain 30M in cash. You only need 10M for the trophy but will need more in the following steps. Continue in single-player.

ii) Buy all the fields

iii) Buy vehicles in all categories and continue to buy more vehicles until the Vehicle Fleet trophy pops (60 vehicles). You might find it easier to sell them back again and buy the vehicles when you need them (you will have plenty of money). It just becomes a bit annoying to have so many vehicles on the map.

iv) Buy buildings: make sure this includes factories and all of the most expensive animal barns (including 15 of the biggest bee hives, chickens, and a dog house)

Trophies: Hard work pays off, All out of Land, Well-Oiled Machine, I like to switch it up, This is just my weekend vehicle, Vehicle fleet, Bringing in the Honey

 

Step 3 - AFK (optional - will probably pop naturally given enough time)

i) Drive with your pickup truck on a field for 99 kilometers. This can be achieved by entering cruise control and making your left thumbstick auto turn the car in circles. Just make sure the circles don't cross a road and are totally in a field (otherwise it will take longer and you may hit another vehicle)

ii) Buy a horse and let it auto-run (a bit different than a vehicle because here you press X to gallop). It doesn't matter where you do this but somewhere quiet is best. This takes about 90 minutes. Before you go AFK, continue to rapidly jump until 2 trophies pop.

iii) Drive 50kms with an articulated truck. Follow the process above.

iv) Drive a tractor for a certain distance. It's not clear how long this should be, but I believe it's longer than the others. You could well complete this naturally over time and that might be the better strategy.

v) Play the game for 10 hours is a trophy that will likely pop during these AFK trophies.

Trophies: Road Trip, Field Trip, Long Haul, It's just the beginning, Giddy-up !, Thoroughbred!, You are not a kangaroo, Allez hopp

 

Step 4 - Mod (easy mode)

i) back at the game's main menu (before loading your save game), enter the mod section and buy 'multifruit buying station', then load the game (with the mod ticked) and buy the station and place 1 somewhere near Johnson's farmer market and another somewhere near the supermarket.

ii) Visit your station with a big trailer and buy olives - sell them to Johnsons' farmer market. It will take a few trips.

iii) Visit your station with a big trailer and buy sorghum - sell them to Johnsons' farmer market. It will take a few trips.

iv) Visit your station with a grape trailer and buy grapes - sell them to the Supermarket. It will take a few trips.

v) visit your station will a big trailer and fill it with stones - crush them at the debris crusher. Should only take one trip.

Trophies: Olea europaea, Raisin the stakes, Original grain, Rock on

 

Step 5 - Quick wins

i) buy a chain saw and chop down 25 trees

ii) visit the dog house and pet the dog

iii) Bring your old vehicle to a mechanic, repair it, get it repainted (the mechanic next to the shop on Elmcreek should be used). Vehicles need to be repaired a further 24 times for another trophy.

Trophies: It just fell off, Fix me up, van Gogh, Ultimutt Pawesomeness

Hey buddy! I love the effort you've put into this, but I do want to point out one thing. Erlengrat has 12 collectibles, not 10. 

 

Also, thank you for linking my collectibles videos, much appreciated

Good job on making a start here. Guide creator or not i'm sure the people that come to the forums looking for help will greatly appreciate what you have made. I will be checking back for future updates as i am around 70% complete myself.

Thanks for the videos, i used them for the collectibles. Glad unlike other videos your method seems to follow the most efficient paths between them all. Appreciate you

For what it's worth i got the trophy "Field Trip" after driving a tractor for 4.6 hours on the clock. I do not know the distance. It needs to be done on one tractor. If you get to 50% on your tracker and then start a new save your trophy tracker will still show 50% but you will actually be 0% on your new tractor. It isn't shared across multiple machies/saves.

You're very welcome dude! I must admit, the Elmcreek collectibles were done from memory and only forget 2 but I wasn't able to edit the last one into a different spot cos it would have confused the viewer of the trophy popping, but otherwise, I tried to make all 3 videos easy to follow. I could have taken the time to add timestamps and label each one, but it would have taken a while to do. I might still consider that if it helps more. Either way, finding all of the collectibles were fun and I'm glad people have found them helpful. Much appreciated
