Popular mod for Farming Simulator 2013

John Deere 8530 is a free-to-use game utility created by Blauea, allowing players to experience its namesake tractor for the classic simulator, Farming Simulator 2013. Given the graphics possible at the time, it does a spectacular job at recreating the model. The mod only adds a single custom vehicle to the game, although it works well with larger mod packs.

Wield a powerful crop tractor

The titular machine, the John Deere 8530 Row Crop Tractor, is a four-wheel-drive row-crop tractor intended for farming. It is powered by a nine-liter, six-cylinder John Deere engine capable of delivering 360 horsepower. Its intuitive CommandCenter and its support for various Agricultural Management Solutions (AMS) has made it a community favorite.

While the advanced features are not included in detail in the mod, players get to ride the massive tractor around. Its accurate vehicle model plus its simplified handling, makes it a favorite among FS13 players. Its lack of features and capabilities can be attributed to the technological restrictions of the base game.

Enjoy the hit tractor on FS

If you’re ever in the mood for some retro farming simulator, hop into FS13 and make sure to load up this John Deere 8530 mod. While the technology might limit your ability to reconfigure and automate the powerful row-crop tractor, the accurate vehicle model is already an enjoyable addition to your virtual farming experience.

    Great mod,I'm so glad I found it.. I am so glad I found this mod. I love this tractor but the one I had came with it's own ESLimiter and wouldn't work correctly with CoursePlay when overloading. This is exactly what I was looking for. Pros: Compatible with Steam/Giant dlc ESLimiter Cons: The other JD8530 mod I had, had larger tires.
