FS25 Shop Engine Sound Preview Mod

This repository contains a Farming Simulator 25 mod that lets players preview a vehicle's engine sound directly in the vehicle shop before purchasing.

Features

• Adds a new input action in the shop configuration screen.
• Press the assigned key/button to start or stop the currently previewed vehicle's engine.
• Automatically stops engine preview when switching to another vehicle or closing the shop.
• Multiplayer-safe and dedicated-server compatible (client GUI feature, no server-side state changes).

Default Controls

• Keyboard/Mouse: K
• Gamepad: X

(Controls can be changed in the in-game input bindings menu.)

Mod File Structure

• modDesc.xml
• inputBinding.xml
• scripts/ShopEnginePreview.lua
• l10n/texts_en.xml
• l10n/texts_de.xml

Packaging

⚠️ Important: The GitHub "Download ZIP" file will not load directly in-game because it wraps files inside a top-level folder (so modDesc.xml is not at the zip root).

Use one of these methods:

1. Run ./package_mod.sh in this repo to create a game-ready zip.
2. Or manually zip the contents (modDesc.xml, inputBinding.xml, scripts/, l10n/) so modDesc.xml is at the root of the zip.

Then copy the generated zip into your FS25 mods folder. Zip the repository contents so that modDesc.xml is at the root of the zip, then place the zip in your FS25 mods folder.
