FarmVille Legends! Recently we carried out a post on how to use the mobile version of the game, FarmVille Express, to plant certain locked crops
which required seeds, and were hard to obtain via regular gameplay.
Well, how good would it be if you could simply use Farmville Express on
your regular computer, instead of your mobile? Well, there is a simple
way to do this, and this is called as User-agent switching, which
basically means making the browser believe it is some other platform.
Like, making your Chrome believe it is actually running on an Android
based smartphone… Sounds too technical? Well, browser plugins have been
coming to the rescue in such cases and simplifying things beyond
imagination… We are going to discuss one such plugin here…
Note:
There might be other plugins too, but we are only listing the ones that
we have tested and found to work successfully for our use… Also, you
can use the User-agent setting to check out mobile versions of other
site too, like Facebook, and such…
Google Chrome users can just install this plugin, called as the User-Agent Switcher for Chrome, and then it’s all simple ahead… Click here to go to the Chrome Web store app, and click on add to Chrome.
Once installed, you will possibly find the tool in the top right of the browser, beside the address bar…
Click
the new button, and you will get a menu… Select the agent of your
choice… In this case, we will select either iOS or Android, as they both
will work good, being mobile versions… That’s it… Now you can just type
‘m.farmville.com’ (without the inverts of course), and it will lead you
to Farmville Express, just like on your phone… Was that not simple?
Well, to change back, just select Chrome option again and it will be
back to normal…
The same directions will also work for Chrome based browsers like Comodo Dragon and such…
Mozilla Firefox
users need (and those using similar browsers) not worry, as they have
their own version of the User-agent switcher too… Open Firefox and click
on this link
in Firefox to take you to the User Agent RG plugin… Click on Add to
Firefox button, and allow install when asked… Done… You will find the
User agent settings under Tools menu… For those of you that have new Firefox versions and hence not able to see the menus by default, you can just click the ‘Alt’ key, and the menus will appear on top of the browser…
The instruction choosing the right agent are the same as in the above mentioned Chrome version of the plugin…
Currently,
there are no alternatives for Internet Explorer as we understand, but
if you have any better ideas, please contact us and let us know… Hope
this helps… We will be also carrying on small series of articles on how
to use Farmville Express to your benefit. Check them out later for sure,
