Since it's the same error, are you sure you saved your fix?
hallow prism
yeah it's a good idea to verify as much as you can by yourself
don't be afraid to try things, it's really hard to break stuff if you revert changes, keep a backup if you're really worried

Yep!

That was on me

Now, I just need to work on this issue here
I haven't used quickQuestion (or any question) in an event before, so I can't help much, however like Lumina said, your event's use of quickQuestion doesn't look like it's matching the format that quickQuestion actually needs. I'm also not sure if you can switch events based on a quickQuestion (though since I am not used to using them, I might be wrong).
ashen goblet
I suppose I'll just switch it to a fork, again since that worked last time

Ok, so, I was trying to work on that transpiler the other day, and my kids needed me, and I was never able to finish, then, the personality who was working on it went down, and now I am working on it but she's better at programming. Long story short, I am releasing several fixes, so I haven't the time or patience to wait for Amy Apryll to figure out what she's doing, so, I made a pre-fix. Long story short, I am making this post to see if anyone else pre-fixes SocialPage.DrawNPCSlot, to make sure I don't cause incompatablities with their mod, so that I can wait for the next update for us to be able to fix it (and by us I mean her).

Hi everyone! i was wondering if anyone would be able to help me figure out how to edit a farm map! i absolutley adore DaisyNikos capitalist dream farm https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3679?tab=description&jump_to_comment=144889236 the farm offers two options clean or decorated. i love the fences that come with the decorated version and the fact that animals won't leave them even with no gate. however the other decorations on the map get in the way of my own decorating lol. i'm wondering if it's possible that someone could help or just lead me in the right direction on how to make a version that looks like the clean one but with the fences included i have asked daisy for permission to do so and obviously i won't be sharing it anywhere

Make sure that you DON'T save the map while it has any of those errors popping up, or you will break the map and have to redownload it. Just hop back out of Tiled for a moment to do the next step.
The next step is that you need to go grab a copy of the tilesheets that are mentioned in the error box at the top of that screenshot (paths.png, spring_outdoorsTileSheet.png, spring_town.png) out of the "Content (Unpacked)/Maps" folder and pop them into the folder that the map is in. Once you have them in the same folder, you should be able to open the map back up and find that there are no errors and you can see the map properly.
languid bolt
yup! i've done that! it looks like this
vernal crest
yup! i've done that! it looks like this
Nice work :) You should be able to start making your edits now. If you click on the "Layers" tab in the box on the top right, you will be able to select the different layers that the map is built on. If you click on the eye button next to a layer, it will hide it to make it clearer what's on each layer (or you can press "H" on your keyboard to highlight the current layer).
Layers with a pink icon to the left of them are object layers - you probably don't need to do anything with them, so you can just hide all of them if you want to. The layers you will want to be editing have a little blue grid icon to the left of them.

They are going to be on the buildings layer and possibly the front layer, while the grass is on the back layer. Therefore, you will want to just erase the decorations from the buildings and front layers. The layers all have different functions (make sure you have the wiki page open so you can check that) - anything on the buildings layer usually can't be walked through so if you put grass down on the buildings layer you'd have grass that you couldn't walk on. If you put grass on the front layer, it would be visible over the top of the farmer if you walked behind it.
languid bolt

There's an eraser icon in the toolbar, use it to erase the tiles
Make sure you're on the right layer tho, you wouldn't want to erase the background grass!

It's alright ^^
The layer in blue is the one you're on, if you hide all other you can make sure the decorations are effectively on this one

I mean, there's ways to edit json on phone, any text editing app will do it, but whether or not you'll get the kind of validation that'll make it good or not... You'll probably just have to try a few and find out

Can I add monsters or characters that are made up of larger Sprite than the original Sprite of the game with ContentPatcher? I want to add a custom monster, but I don't see a Sprite sheet that can handle my custom monster among the monsters that exist in the game. If you have any related antecedent modes, please let me know.
rancid temple
CP won't be able to handle larger sprites
If your custom monster isn't just a copy of an existing monster, you'd need to turn to C# anyways
CP can't handle any of the actual logic of monsters
Ugh, trying to decide if my current custom prize data solution is good enough. Currently the prize list is built based on the entire prize data asset, was considering making it so you can choose to use a specific entry in the dictionary
Or maybe even like fish which is a combination of the default and a specific entry
Mostly just don't want to have to rewrite all this prize code lmao
velvet narwhal
By prize data asset do you mean it's a copy paste of object.json or something?
rancid temple
Nah, it's a custom data asset
It's a string, model dictionary, like Objects though
velvet narwhal
Ah
lucid iron
what if u just let ppl choose the target
rancid temple
Yeah that was one of the potential ideas
lucid iron
so u have rokugin.PrizeMachine/MyCustomPrize1
rancid temple
Well now I'm not sure I'm following lmao
lucid iron
kind of like how events r all unique targets, named after location
the prize machine would give the target prize pool asset it wants, and you load from it when starting the claw minigame
this does make it harder to cache things tho
rancid temple
Yeah, the nature of the crane game was already to build the prize list when the minigame opens, so I was just doing that still
Considering that it only happens whenever it's opened, it's probably fine to not cache it
hard fern
Hm, this might be a weird question, but how does the "IsDarkskinned" tag work? I know it's for the player's children, but are there any specfics ...?
tiny zealot
controls how the game chooses between Baby and BabyDark (and Toddler and ToddlerDark)
if the NPC spouse is dark skinned, chance to choose dark +50%. if the farmer is dark skinned (one of the discrete skin tones that counts as dark), +50%. roll at time of arrival and that's which version you get
i don't believe it matters whether the child is adopted but i don't remember offhand
hard fern
Hm .. 
well i guess it doesn't matter because the character i want to make is going to adopt
tiny zealot
it might matter! i don't think the dark choice cares whether you are adopting
tiny zealot
(in almost all respects, the game does not care whether you are adopting. it doesn't even keep track. it only checks SpouseAdopts and the couple's genders when it needs to know, which is only when displaying dialogue like "the agency dropped off the baby" versus "X gave birth")
hard fern
I saw in the npc template that "undefined" gets sorted as female?
rancid temple
Mail order baby is wild
tiny zealot
probably depends on context. there's probably one where that's true
hallow prism
in what sense?
tiny zealot
you can, but the level of detail/accuracy can vary
hard fern
in what sense?
Like have the baby take a custom appearance when married to x npc
tiny zealot
i have custom children for my NPC but i did some C# shenanigans to make it work in a particular way
hallow prism
Like have the baby take a custom appearance when married to x npc
yes, there's several variants of that on nexus
you can make your own with more or less complexity
tiny zealot
for example, you can do it with just content patcher but the appearance will reset if you get divorced

Hi

knotty phoenix
Is there any way to like... edit a map once I've already started a file on it? I want to remove the fences from Frontier Farm (the hardcoded ones that are still there in sandbox mode), but editing the map in Tiled to remove them and trying to plug it in to my existing file just throws a SMAPI error and loads the fences anyway
hard fern
Show the error
latent mauve
You could likely create your own map patch for it and set Frontier Farm/SVE as a dependency so it loads afterwards.
However, if you're editing the base file: If you went into Tiled and saved the file with tilesheet errors (red Xs), then you may need to fix those first.
knotty phoenix
oh that's probably it, i didn't realize the tileset errors were anything more than a graphical issue while editing
i will try that out and see if it fixes it
vernal crest
Yes you need to have all the tilesheets in the same folder as the map when editing it. THen for playing, you have to remove the tilesheets from the folder.

Out of curiosity, when creating custom tokens, are / allowed?
Seeing a common CopperStill issue in the support channels pertaining to a custom token 'NCarigon.CopperStill/ArePricesBalanced' failing so I am just curious as to what causes the failure.

The modid/ in this case is the scoping done by content patcher I think
ArePricesBalanced is the token defined

Content Patcher and the Data/AdditionalFarms method is probably the easiest way.
rancid temple
Be not replaceable?
latent mauve
I think they mean to not replace one of original farm types (Standard, Hilltop, etc.)
rancid temple
Oh, like convert from a replacing type to an additional farm, okay

if you mean to change out an already existing mod that replaces a farm, then that's a conversion
if you mean you wanna make a brand new one, then additionalfarms https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Farm_data

At least, not on the list
velvet narwhal

To be fair, they are still CP mods in most cases (or FTM).
The difference is that a new farm needs some extra data filled in

but yea u can just yoink this light code i did yesterday

I'm gonna fucking ask Pathos to make that readonly

Out of pure curiosity... if there were 2 different portrait calls at the end of the dialogue, what would happen?

it'd probably show that coin thing

<@174722115038216195> Sorry for another ping ๐
But was it intended that with y...
yeah
because 12 expression sheets dont have a pink hair portrait

True, I guess I'll just edit the event then to add it
rancid temple
Yay, the music works, now that I'm deaf because I didn't realize how loud it was gonna be I can move on
velvet narwhal
if i'm removing my tryparse and i take the whole string added to my customfield value, is that even going to be passable
{
string[] args = ArgUtility.SplitBySpace(lightProps ?? "");
for (int i = 0; i <= 2; i++)
{
customString = args[i];
}```
velvet narwhal
say in the cp edit it's customfield blah blah
"Aviroen.TreeGlow": "floatradius color textureindex"
oh okay i've done it backwards huh
i was trying to get the customString to break apart into the args
lucid iron
well u do need to do that
but then u can just use ArgUtility.TryGetOptionalFloat to parse into floats
rancid temple
Well, floatRadius is a float but then color is what a string?
And textureIndex would be an int?
For this example anyways
velvet narwhal
yeah i was trying to just break up string -> all of it's necessary components
rancid temple
SplitBySpace would be splitting customString wouldn't it?
rancid temple
And then you would try to parse each args index by its intended value
Since they're gonna be different, you wouldn't really use a for loop for it
Though I suppose you could... it wouldn't save any space since you'd still have to qualify each loops intention lol
velvet narwhal
i put the for loop in because i didn't realize the splitbyspace parts and was slowly going through what each piece did
okay time to test by throwing a custom field into a tree
uncut viper
im late to it because I was Asleepโข but regarding the light source thing I just wanna say I genuinely appreciate the experimentation and "I'll figure it out myself" mindset that leads to yeeting all the light sources
velvet narwhal
i didn't push it to my git at least, i just saved it and left a comment saying "you'll probably get yelled at for this"
i think(?) i made them glow?
i should probably check and see what the map looks like without my harmony mod though so
lucid iron
Well, floatRadius is a float but then color is what a string?
color is a string yea, i invert it so it is not opposite of what u expect
Color color = Utility.StringToColor(colorStr) ?? Color.White;
color = new Color(color.PackedValue ^ 0x00FFFFFF);
(i did not, it's apparently a natural thing)
rancid temple
Hm, I assumed a patch reload would cause an asset update, but I guess it doesn't?

calm nebula
Pro tip on lights
rancid temple
Originally thought I just needed to invalidate, but that doesn't seem to have helped
calm nebula
I usually work with very odd color lights when developing
Like my test ring light was blood red
So I could tell if that was me
In general, make it obvious
velvet narwhal
i did set it to green but i don't know what 'green' entails
lucid iron
Green would give u magenta light if u didn't invert color
velvet narwhal
"Aviroen.TreeGlow": "2f Green 1"```
oh wait
is it not reading it because i didn't set mycology dependent on it
brittle pasture
in trinkets i supported prismatic color for lights too
did you try with Glow Buff installed
lucid iron
```"CustomFields": {
"Aviroen.TreeGlow": "2f Green 1"```
what did you use for position
velvet narwhal
what did you use for position
i really only replaced your lightString with customString
lucid iron
yea u need to harmony add the lights
this method i link just make the light, but rest of the file has the harmony patch
brittle pasture
havent seen max in a while either <:bolbonfire:354281116867493888>
It does when I tested a few days ago though
unless another nightly borked it 
lucid iron
yea i feel like i just gotta rebuild it maybe 
either way i am fine w/ letting another mod fix how them lights look 
velvet narwhal
i'm getting ready for them crimis lights
brittle pasture
should I add that as a hidden feature of Glow Buff to the framework page lol
"also patches the lightsource draw function to make colored lights not look terribad"
brittle pasture
also you may not need harmony for your tree lights
you can register a OnAdded delegate on the game location's TerrainFeatures dict to add/remove lights when a tree gets added/removed
and register those in LocationListChanged
and also maybe a day started handler
lucid iron
oh yea, that is what i did for dirt actually
it was warped + added
(this was that thing for turning hoe dirt into lava visually)
but hm it is not like u can add whole ass grown trees 
velvet narwhal
the map has fully grown trees i think
lucid iron
but u cant put one down i mean
brittle pasture
Also the day started handler to add lights to trees that grew overnight in case you dont want lights on babby trees
velvet narwhal
yeah nope
lucid iron
unless u want to make the seed to grow ig
velvet narwhal
yeah i was gonna put it on the day started
lucid iron
the reason why i did resetLocalState is cus i wanted to add map lights and obey usual rules governing the Path layer lights and the map prop lights
this is presumably why casey did the same for colored map prop lights
u r add something more like a torch and so u need to handle deleting the light when tree chopped
which u can do via terrain changed event

there are literally only 3 vanilla triggers: DayStarted, DayEnding, and LocationChanged

As in multi word value?
Meh, shouldn't change much
uncut viper
you can check player stats for mastery though
velvet narwhal
ah actually i should give my other one
lucid iron
i been checking for has anvil recipe
uncut viper
the player gets stats for mastery_<skill ID> when they claim one
the skill ID is numeric so like. 0 for farming or w/e
(dont quote me on that 0 might be combat or smth idfk)
so you can use PLAYER_STAT
lucid iron
but i thought stats r big spaget in multiplayer
lucid iron
maybe its fine 
uncut viper
i think if they left early and then reconnected the next day, the game wouldnt count them as knowing the recipe either, bc it wouldnt count them as having mastery there
velvet narwhal
i think if you set it to player_stat current you'll be fine?
uncut viper
the mastery cave checks the mastery stats
lucid iron
ig to send mail i just gotta do dayending and with some check
uncut viper
you'd just use the PLAYER_STAT check still if its on day ending
if the day is ending then things are being saved

Does the camera move instant?
uncut viper
i dunno. i cant remember if ive ever moved that instantly without already expecting the camera to do something like flash or fade out or both to hide it
rancid temple
Does the map have to be one big continuous thing? Can it not just be made up of several maps stitched together and one of the warps just takes you back to the start?

i just assumed the intent was to hide the fact that the player is in an endless maze forever

are within map warps seemless like that <:bolbthinking:331696489778774021>
seemless warps can be done reasonably easily with c#, just requires a little bit of reflection shenanigans IIRC
alternatively with c# you could trivially add a silent warp touch action that just changes the player position without actually warping
lucid iron
does the camera look fine in those case
gaunt orbit
I've never tried it but I don't see why it wouldn't

do you have to warp them from host instance?

Good advice, thank you for helping to end my suffering

if I can warp them from host instance that'd be nice, but I can't seem to find the function that does so
lucid iron
no i mean, how come the host process needs to decide when warp
brittle pasture
ah yeah, I'm doing a minigame where I want to yeet everyone from the map once it's done. the host must start it
lucid iron
normally u dont do that cus ppl could be down in f99 of skull cave

I'll only yeet ppl who's also doing the minigame
I'm doing 'host starts and controls` because lazy

ah i see, its like a festival

ive no doubt its not the way you're supposed to do it but maybe you can just reflect into GameServer.warpFarmer and call that

I haven't been able to check npclocations for mothman but tbh since the mugshot isn't showing I assumed the npc locations won't show as well
versed wyvern
Mothman uses SiD so I'd imagine it has the same incompatibility
velvet narwhal
Does scale up 2 resize it back down to original? Cause then, it'd probably have compat.
versed wyvern
The mugshot works on my SiD character, but even if I edit the Map Locations file to look at a different spot on the sprite sheet their map sprite is distorted and displaced, making it almost useless
rancid temple

He's in the sewer, so it just shows him where that entrance is

Mugshot doesn't let you select a source, right?

No luck on my side
I'm unsure if this is it, but I found Custom_Ridgeside_EmberNight
vernal crest
If you mean the stage right in the middle of the village, that's just on the main map. It will be probably called Custom_Ridgeside_Village or something.
vernal crest
Yes, it's next to Pika's right?
ashen goblet
Correct
vernal crest
Then the location for that is very likely to be the location for the entire outside village area
ashen goblet
Custom_Ridgeside_RidgesideVillage?
vernal crest
I don't know, maybe. Check that file for any events taking place on the stage.

How do you implement your own custom music ID into the game?
Is there a wiki on it?
latent mauve
You use an EditData action to add it to Data/AudioChanges, I think
Once the new track exists, you can call it by Id anywhere you can call the vanilla music (Locations, events, etc.)
clever sinew
I know this is backwards, but if I add the context tag "category_milk" to an item, does that also designate the item as milk for cooking recipes and things like that?
In the content.json
latent mauve
Probably only if the cooking recipe is looking for the context tag instead of the item ID
Not all of them do, I think
clever sinew
Yes, like I have recipes that call for "Any milk"
And I want those recipes to recognize my item
would that work?
unless "any milk" is still looking for specific IDs, I'm not sure
latent mauve
It looks like -6 as a category directly corresponds to the category_milk context tag, so as long as your object has the tag and the recipe uses the -6 as an ingredient, it should
clever sinew
okay cool, thank you very much!
latent mauve
You can also set the Category for your milk objects directly in the object's data, which should guarantee it
I'd recommend including that field as well to be safe

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Audio
I'm lookin
at the wiki and I'm pretty confused
I'll look into it however
latent mauve
Basics are to use wav or ogg files (oggs are preferred due to file compression I think), create an entry for the new track and label it as whether it's music, ambient noise, or a sound effect, and then figure out what to do with it from there to use in your mod
I did one for a custom pet mod experiment once to add a specific new sound, and it was pretty easy
uncut viper
important to note that unlike a lot of other things, to add audio you do have to use that internalassetkey token as shown on that wiki page which will just be a path to a file in your mods folder, not something you Load in
ashen goblet
Got it
uncut viper
(also yes .oggs are much smaller in file size so theyre better if possible)

Off topic and on the side, I finished my fourth event though it does not trigger

You made a mod and need to test on Linux?
I think it should work according to wiki
uncut viper
it includes a third party dll, which iunno if this particular one works on mac or linux. iunno. only thing i could easily find about including third party dlls with a mod is a message from pathos in 2020 saying to test on mac and linux, so i just assumed that was still relevant to be better safe than sorry
proud wyvern
what's the third party lib?
uncut viper
it was Pastel because im lazy lol. so, not a hard requirement by any means, just a "itd be neat if i could just include it" instead of writing ansii escape sequences myself

and just to be sure, you do have 4 heartsa of friendship with your NPC and the time is bwtween 6pm and 10pm right?
uncut viper
you have the friendship requirement set to 1000, 250 points per heart, so 4 hearts
uncut viper
it should still trigger even if you have more anyway though so its not the issue
ashen goblet
I edited it, let me check it out.
ashen goblet
it should still trigger even if you have more anyway though so its not the issue
I already have a 4 heart event
so
it would conflict
uncut viper
i dont see why you couldnt have two events that required 4 hearts minimum
ashen goblet
Unsure either, but I'm about to see if that fixed it
uncut viper
but theyd need different IDs, which was gona be my next question since i dont know much about events, but is it an issue that all of the ones in this json have an ID of CoolGift?
are you able to get the other 3 to trigger in the same save file?
ashen goblet
Yes
uncut viper
then unfortunately i have got nothing, sorry :c

My first event works.. and my second seems to malfunctioning despite it working previously?
devout otter
Event IDs should be unique. Try giving them different Event IDs.
old edge
Also not sure but can you use a move command before the skippable command?
ashen goblet
I found some wrong slashes, but not even the JSON identified them which is weird
uncut viper
if theyre inside the string then theres nothing wrong with them from a JSON perspective
old edge
Can you try removing the time commands? I always have trouble with those
Idk how it functions
Time preconditions test without

ashen goblet
The 2 heart event works fine
The 4th and 6th did as well, but now.. they're not?
I'm jus confused
devout otter
Change the event ID.
old edge
Show the one in question
uncut viper
are you sure you did actually trigger all of the other events in the same file, and werent just testing them one by one but not saving afterwards and thus not running into the ID issue?
old edge
Code here
Yes
They were all in one file
Alright, got the 6 hearts to work
old edge
Also sometimes you have to do a patch reload
devout otter
You can try installing Event Lookup and see if any of the conditionals is not fulfilled.
ashen goblet
What does that do?
devout otter
See the conditions to trigger an event.
So we can test whether it's conditionals problem or formatting problem.
ashen goblet
I'll download it
blissful berry
do tokens work in letters/mail? i have this:
"I wanted to let you know that the patients are officially being discharged as of the morning of {{Season}} {{Day}}.^^Willy has offered to provide them with living arrangements. If you would like to see them and haven't done so already, I recommend that you head down to the beach.^^Regards,^Dr.Harvey[#]Final update"
and the tokens show up as is in-game, rather than replacing with the current date like i intended
uncut viper
is that entire string inside an i18n file?
blissful berry
yes
uncut viper
you'll need to pass the value into the i18n token then
tokens dont get replaced directly when theyre in i18n

It does not list the event, meaning the script could not be trying to load the event

devout otter

The second?

You can only trigger the event on Monday.

Now, I just need to figure out custom music aha
I don't quite understand the wiki--could somebody please guide me through it? My aim is to apply the custom music into some of my events.
uncut viper
theres a template on the audio modding wiki page, you can just do the same thing but with your own music file and give it your own unique id and then you can use that music anywhere else like you'd use vaniulla music
{
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/AudioChanges",
"Entries": {
"{{ModId}}_Music": {
"ID": "{{ModId}}_Music",
"Category": "Music",
"FilePaths": [ "{{AbsoluteFilePath: assets/YOUR FILE HERE.ogg}}" ],
"StreamedVorbis": true,
"Looped": true
}
}
},
if you're not using a .ogg file then change StreamedVorbis to false
ashen goblet

Does anyone recall if 1.6 added a way to disable or adjust the NPC breathing animation? I feel like I read something like that but I don't have the slightest clue if my brain just made it up
uncut viper
NPCs have a Breather field in their character data
vernal crest
The breather field is just a bool for whether they should have the breathing animation or not, but there are also two fields for changing the size of the breathing rectangle and its location on the sprite.
They should be on the NPC overview page now pathos has updated it for 1.6

Hello! Could somebody please check out what could be the error with my most recent event's choice code? The choice prompt does come up, but upon clicking a choice, it just goes quiet--it doesn't follow up, as if the event is waiting for something to happen.

(Look at the 8 heart events)
[game] Event 'CoolGift4' has command 'fork singingChoiceGood' which couldn't be parsed: can't load new script from event asset 'Data\Events\Custom_Ridgeside_RidgesideVillage' because it doesn't contain the required 'singingChoiceGood' key.
[game] Event 'CoolGift4' has command 'switchEvent singingChoiceBad' which couldn't be parsed: can't load new event from asset 'Data\Events\Custom_Ridgeside_RidgesideVillage' because it doesn't contain the required 'singingChoiceBad' key.
are the errors I get from the console^
(I tried using the log but it didn't work, sorry!)
hallow prism
the errors are telling you why
try telling me what are the errors telling
so i can see what part is hard for you to get
ashen goblet
I don't quite understand it though.
The way I understand is that Ridgeside is somehow interrupting the choices; still, my 2 heart events have a choice made in the Ridgeside with no issues ;-;
hallow prism
i have no idea why and how your other event works, sometimes it depends of how you make the format
so
you're right the error message mentions ridgeside, it mentions the asset you need to look at
especially it mentions the Data\Events\Custom_Ridgeside_RidgesideVillage and the fact it hasn't any of the required keys (the branches of your event)
old edge
So I guess FTM doesn't spawn rings correctly they don't seem to be equippable.
hallow prism
it's because you change the location before the choice and so the choice must be available in the NEW location
aka Custom_Ridgeside_RidgesideVillage
so you need your initial event in a location and the choices in another
the 2 heart event (looking quickly at it) changes location AFTER the branch choice so of course the problem doesn't appears
(also note that your events/branchs id are not unique enough, if you plan to publish the mod one day it can causes issue)
