I could not find a script for POL. I tried a manual install. It doesn’t work yet.

It works just fine on Windows. That tells me my GMA 45 isn't the problem.

SOLVED. I looked at my Civ 5 prefix and tried deleting and recreating the Farming Simulation 2013 directory using the same settings as Civ 5. It now works. The mouse doesn’t do menu selection properly. I just have to move the mouse a little further down than the actual button until the button lights up then click to press the button. Also sometimes when I walk up to a tractor it won't let me enter. I have to walk around the tractor until the game decides to work.
