Hotfix — Farming Simulator 1.21 log spam
After Farming Simulator’s 1.21 update, the dashboard mod could fill the game log with repeated copyFile errors while trying to save a map overview image for the fleet map.
What we fixed: that copy now uses the correct yes/no flag the game expects, and it will not keep retrying forever if the overview image cannot be copied.
This does not mean the game is broken — it was noisy logs and a possible map-overview hiccup, not a crash of Farming Simulator itself.
How to update (from App 4.2 / Mod 3.4.0.6)
- Close the Farm Dashboard app.
- Close Farming Simulator (and stop the dedicated server if you host one).
- Download the new app installer and the new
FS25_FarmDashboard.zipfrom this release (or itch.io). - Install / replace the Windows app. Replace the mod zip in
Documents\My Games\FarmingSimulator2025\mods\
(delete the old zip and any unpackedFS25_FarmDashboardfolder if present). - Start the game → load your save with the mod enabled → start the Farm Dashboard app.
- Dedicated server: upload/replace the mod on the host, restart the server, then reconnect clients (and replace the mod on any join-as-client PC too).
In-game tip: ESC → Settings → Farm Dashboard — enable Production collector and Economy collector if those sections stay empty.

Also in 4.2.1
Dedicated join-as-client (no FTP required)
- When someone joins the dedicated server with the same mod, the host can mirror live data to that PC’s local folder.
- The desktop app can watch that local folder — no FTP needed while a client is connected.
- FTP remains Advanced for headless / empty dedicated servers.
Setup & stability
- Clearer Setup guidance for join-as-client / mirror export.
- Extra merge and test hardening on the 4.2.1 line.
UI default
- Classic dashboard remains the default. The newer UI stays optional.

Classic vs Realistic Farming edition
This release is classic 4.x only. Realistic Farming edition builds use a separate installer and latest-rf.yml — they do not replace this classic update channel.
Third-party mods
Farm Dashboard works with base-game FS25 on its own. Optional mods add extra panels or data when installed on the save. None are required. See the 4.2.0 release notes for the integrated list.
