How to unlock the Gone but not for cotton achievement in Farming Simulator 22 - Definitive Guide

Sell 40 bales of cotton. Has to be done in one session. Best option is to make 40 bales of cotton, do not sell until you have all 40. One thing to note as well they do not have to be complete bales to count, you can sell unfinished bales which is the optimal way to get the achievement.

edit:

The only cotton harvester that let's you make unfinished bales at the moment is
the Case IH Module Express 635 which creates rectangular bales of cotton.
This harvester requires 2000L to make an unfinished bale but the only way to transport is a trailer that carries 2 of them at a time.
This is an autoloading flatbed mod which makes picking these up easier.
In the mod menu press cn_X and type in autoloading
There should be only one mod that pops up to download (30' Flatbed Autoloading Bale Trailer the author is macktrucker921). This holds 2 square cotton bales but it autoloads faster than the only loader in the base game.

When you load up your game, be sure to check off your mods that you've downloaded, go to the store>trailers and it should be the last trailer(it'll be marked as a mod if you enabled it before loading into your save). You will need a tractor to attach it to and when you do press cn_LB + cn_X to put it into operating position. When you drive up to one of your square bales it will automatically go onto the flatbed.


2. The John Deere CP690 creates round bales of cotton.
Takes 2500L to make an unfinished bale and transport takes 3 at a time.


Fastest way I found was to just hire AI to harvest a cotton field then monitor when they reach the unfinished bale amount of the harvester then dismiss AI and unload the bale using cn_LB + cn_Y rinsing and repeating.

Pick up the bales with the automatic bale loaders and dump them in an open field until I counted 40 bales to sell.

As far as selling points, placing spinneries close by the point where you leave your 40 bales is optimal. They can take up to 45000L of cotton so you will have to place a few more down as they fill up and can't take more.

Before I knew this, I already started selling the bales and the Achievement is on 15%. Does that matter? or can I just count to 40 bales again & do it that way? While still being on 15%

It will get stuck on 15 and you'll have to start over from beginning once you start the game up again.

If you quit your game after turning in less than the required bales the tracker will get stuck. Remember you have to do this in one go without exiting the game. If you don't, it just resets your progress.

I've been waiting for them to fix this, so I don't have to finish it in one session. Have they patched this, yet?

Not sure if they have fixed the tracker getting stuck. However I am stuck because my bales won't sell anymore. I have sold maybe 3. Now I am dropping bales in the selling point and nothing is happening, any ideas?

In response to my previous comment, it would appear that it was because the storage of the spinnery was full with cotton. I took some wool up to the spinnery to kickstart the production of cloth to get rid the cotton in storage.

This One session is just the selling part, you can harvest and save 40 bales near the spinnery and then sell them all in one session. It doesn't take long.

No longer lets you dump unfinished bales. It will not even give me the option to LB/ Y once it hits the 1 stage on the bale, on let me dump once the bale is at 100%.

Indeed, it is not possible anymore to unload unfinished bales. This achievement now takes way longer as you need to grow A LOT more cotton.

I accidentally hit a John Deere cotton harvester with a tractor and an unfinished bale fell off. This may allow you to sell unfinished bales after the patch, but I haven't tested to see if it works.

Ok so I tried this method with mods and with the base game harvestors. I was able to make an unfinished bale with the CASE IHMODULE EXPRESS 635 stated on the solution at 2000L. Looks like thats the only cotton harvestor that will work.

The solution below about the Mods is the way to go. Got this done on PC today and took about 10 minutes.

The John Deere CP690 will let you unload around 2000L (since I have unloaded unfinished bales at 2048L) but is tricky since it will not start make a bale until it collects 2500L. I would watch collected cotton and once it started making a bale I would hold the LB and try to press Y as soon as I could once it gave the command to unload.

Just stumbled across this on youtube:
You need to sell 40 bales of cotton to get a 100% and obtain the trophy. And it looks like this can only be done in one session atm. Otherwise you start at 0% again.

This achievement can be done literally in a few tens of minutes thanks to these modifications: IBC And Pallets Stack (for purchasing cotton bales), Trailer Bi-train Cotton Bales Autoload (the name speaks for itself)

Sell 40 cotton bales.

I have seen reports of this trophy being glitchy by resetting your bale count if you save and leave, so it's recommended to do this in one sitting to avoid this potential bug.

First off, you need a field full of cotton ready to harvest along with a cotton harvester, header, truck, and trailer that can load bales.

To buy or lease your own, press tp.png to bring up the buying menu and use l1.png/r1.png to change categories to "Vehicles". Now using dpad.png/ls.png, select "Cotton Technology" and press cross.png to see what is available. Use dpad_left.png/dpad_right.png/lsw.png/lse.png to select one you like then press cross.png to move to the next screen. Now using dpad.png/ls.png, make whatever changes you want to the available options (triangle.png for paint changes) then press cross.png to buy or square.png to lease it.
Ideally, you want to pick one with the widest coverage you can find to speed things up.
I would also suggest the trailer mentioned below as it can carry 9 bales in one go and you just have to drive past the bale to pick it up.

Refer to Helper A does not stop … ever trophy_silver.png for how contracts work.

Now take take cotton harvester to your cotton field, line it up and press circle.png to let your AI driver do the hard work. Now go grab your tractor and connect it up to your trailer by driving forward (r2.png) and reversing (l2.png) onto the hitch point of the trailer and pressing cross.png to connect it. Now press l1.png+square.png to activate automatic pickup mode and follow your cotton harvester, all you need to do is get the side of the trailer near the bale to pick it up. The trailer is full at 9 bales, so press l1.png+square.png again to enter transport mode and find a place to sell your cotton bales.
A farmers market should do the trick but if you're on the "Four Fields" map like my guide suggests, go to the harbour in the top left corner. There's no easy way to offload this trailer sadly but I have two suggestions. Either reverse hard then accelerate to push them off the back, or turn a sharp turn to make them fall off the side. Either way, you need to press l1.png+triangle.png 2 times to release the bales, now they are loose are ready to fall off. Just push them into the selling point with your tractor as most of them will miss. Press l1.png+triangle.png to reset autoload and return for your next load of bales.
Repeat the above until you have sold 40 bales and your trophy will pop.

Here is a full video guide on attaching trailers to tractors and getting your cotton bales sold as outlined above.
 

Important Note
You MUST use your own vehicles and tools when farming fields that you own.
You MUST borrow the contract vehicle and tools when farming contracted fields.
Any other use will NOT count towards this trophy.
 
Vehicles/tools(mods) I used during this step:
Medium Tractor: John Deere 4755 with Unreal 1 engine setup (Mod: "John Deere 4755" by "Ridiculous Dominick")
Vehicle/Cotton Technology: Lizard 7000 Cotton Harvester Unrealistic set to Colossus 7000 Race Edition engine setup (Mod: "Lizard Colossus Harvester Pack" by "ChrisS and RileyS")
Trailer: Lizard 40' Flatbed Autoloading Bale Trailer set to Autoload Bales body configuration (Mod: "40' Lizard Flatbed Autoloading Bale Trailer" by "macktrucker921")

You need to sell 40 bales of cotton in one season; if you don’t manage to sell it in one season, you’ll have to start from scratch. However, you can cheat the game by selling unfinished bales. You fill the combine to 10% and unload the bale. This way it will be much easier for you to collect 40 bales in one season.

You can also deliver cotton to your own production (for example, spinning factories). The bales will also go towards the trophy progress.

if you don’t want to plow in the field growing cotton, then 2 mods will help you:
"IBC and pallets stack" and "Cotton bale autoload".
buy 40 bales of cotton, load them into a trailer with automatic loading and sell them at a sales point

I advise you to accumulate bales as the game progresses and not crush them yet. You have to turn in everything at once in one save.
It is better to buy 3 collection points yourself and place them near the finished bales. I stored the bales directly in the cars. 20 cars, 2 bales each.

I set the time speed to 0.5 and calmly sold the finished bales.
