## Crossplay and mods — what works?

Mods and crossplay get along — but only under one condition: **ModHub mods exclusively**. Anything uploaded via FTP automatically disables crossplay, because PS5 and Xbox can't load external mods.

**ModHub mods:** Work with crossplay ✓
 **External FTP mods:** Automatically disable crossplay ✗

## The best ModHub mods for crossplay servers

These mods work reliably with crossplay and are especially popular on multiplayer servers:

### Productivity & gameplay

- **Courseplay** — AI vehicle control, the classic for multiplayer farms
- **AutoDrive** — automatic driving routes for tractors and trucks
- **Precision Farming** — more realistic soil care and soil samples
- **Global Company** — shared company management with a joint account

### Comfort & UI

- **SimpleInspector** — shows server FPS and player info in-game
- **Seasons** (if available) — realistic seasonal cycle
- **VehicleInspector** — vehicle status and maintenance info

### Map mods

- All official DLC maps (Highlands, Zielonka, etc.) — always crossplay-compatible
- ModHub maps that have gone through the official review process

## Which mods break crossplay?

In principle, **any mod uploaded via FTP** — no matter how popular it is. That's a technical restriction from Sony and Microsoft, not from Giants or your server provider.

**Practical rule:** If you can find a mod on the ModHub and subscribe to it right in the game → crossplay works. If you have to upload it as a ZIP file via FTP → crossplay is disabled.

## How many ModHub mods can I use with crossplay?

There's no fixed upper limit. The limit comes from server performance:

- **Rule of thumb:** Up to 30–40 ModHub mods, any good server runs without problems
- From 50+ mods, the server CPU should be strong enough — FS25 mainly uses one CPU core, so single-core performance is what counts

## Pro tip: two servers for maximum flexibility

If you want both crossplay and external FTP mods, the cleanest solution is two separate servers:

- **Server 1:** crossplay server with ModHub mods — for all platforms
- **Server 2:** PC-only server with all your FTP mods — for the hardcore PC crowd
