[ornate drift]

now i gotta make like 10k lines of dialogue.......

[tiny zealot]

i don't believe space versus no space in that situation makes a difference

[half tangle]

Follow up to my earlier discussion of a protected field... using this.closeSound = actually does work. I was writing code for one menu and testing a different menu in game because I was being sloppy...

[tiny zealot]

but dialogue parsing is cursed so don't take my word for it /lh

[ornate drift]

uh

[torpid sparrow]

send json

[ornate drift]

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/688976d60ea441739a404f4c237c26e4

ignore literally every other string except introduction

[torpid sparrow]

are u doing editdata

did u load a blank for dialogue?

[slow basin]

still not at the festival but im removing the _y1 to see if that does something

[ornate drift]

no its an include in the content json

[ornate drift]

loaded blank as well

[torpid sparrow]

oh ok yeah you need to

have an actual action

ur not doing anything rn

[slow basin]

SHE' THERE

[ornate drift]

oh wait Changes?

[slow basin]

collpases

[ornate drift]

bro 🥀

[torpid sparrow]

yay

ugh my dialogue json is rly long

one sec

[orchid glade]

Hey is there a data file that describes the coordinates of specific temporary sprites? Like where on which png they are found?

[torpid sparrow]

https://smapi.io/json/none/7bce687a37c64324b632927d1e707edd

@ornate drift

example

[slow basin]

now to go through and test all festivals fo the next 2 years and all events yay!

[torpid sparrow]

oh thats a bad example u dont want strings

hold on

at least not rn

[ornate drift]

not rn yeah

[torpid sparrow]

https://smapi.io/json/none/65f28665e192487c9f5b1c3ec960132b

So you need the changes, and you need an actual patch

[ornate drift]

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/18996a66595c423494ff1b5bcbbc9063

you can check my content

[torpid sparrow]

this is what ur dialogue json should look like

ur content looks fine

[ornate drift]

oh okay

[gaunt orbit]

does anyone know how to get a Farmer handle from a smapi screen id? is it the same as the Farmer ID?

[vernal crest]

You've formatted your dialogue.json as though you were planning to Load it

[torpid sparrow]

^

[vernal crest]

When you Include a file, all you're doing is outsourcing the CP patches to a different file. CP then recombines those patches into the content.json when it runs (conceptually).

[ornate drift]

i thought that was how dialogue worked at first

hm

[torpid sparrow]

you can do that but you can't parse tokens that way

[torpid sparrow]

its not so much how "dialogue" works

but just like how this all works

[uncut viper]

The screen ID is just an incrementing int

0, 1, 2, etc

So not a farmer ID

[torpid sparrow]

oh fireredlily did you see, the issue was a missing Include patch for Kandi

[latent mauve]

It's better to use a blank load and EditData any time you have a brand new JSON that needs creating, because things like {{ModId}} are tokens and tokens aren't parsed through Loads

[ornate drift]

oh im just familiar with Load and Changes for the most part

[latent mauve]

Ha

I have done that before

[torpid sparrow]

haven't we all

[torpid sparrow]

ur going to love editdata

[uncut relic]

hey hey, trying to make a shop mod, is it possible to make sell items according to their contexttags? i want to make it sell only mushrooms (not other forage items)

[latent mauve]

I once forgot to include the elevator map on the apartment mod and none of my NPCs would exit their floors during testing

[ornate drift]

ok so wait
if i have dialogue json
do i need to editdata every single string inside there with content?

or

[torpid sparrow]

no

it can be all within one patch

(if there are no conditions u want on it)

[ornate drift]

oh ok

do i just do it all in content

[torpid sparrow]

u can do it in ur dialogue json

just have the changes portion

and the patch

[gaunt orbit]

I think I can use GameRunner.instance.gameInstances

[ornate drift]

im stupid sorry

[torpid sparrow]

u might want to look at an existing npc mod

[ornate drift]

yeaaaaahh but having already taught knowledge makes it easier once you get the point

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/e36d99e54c22407bb219fcff7b20f1ca

oh wait i think i did it????

smapi io is giving me no errors

[torpid sparrow]

yes that works

[ornate drift]

hooray
thank you

[vernal crest]

You don't need the $0 portrait commands by the way, that's the default

[ornate drift]

got it

[dreamy dew]

Do the dangerous counterparts of monsters occupy the same data or ID under specificMonstersKilled?

I don't see some sort of unique data or ID for them here.
https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Monster_data

[latent mauve]

As far as the monster slayer quests, yes

[ornate drift]

i cannot interact with him for some reason

is it because there should be an interactable true string

[latent mauve]

Does he have gift tastes set?

[ornate drift]

well

yeah but its not in content yet

i forgot to load that

[latent mauve]

Social NPCs need gift tastes defined to be interactable/speak

It's a weird quirk

[dreamy dew]

Thank you. I thought I was missing something. I'm looking modding data and stuff because I'm bored and don't want to burn out playing the game every day. lol

[latent mauve]

Funnily enough for this channel, my source of that knowledge is from playing the game and meeting the monster slayer requirements by fighting in the dangerous mines xD

[dreamy dew]

Probably why Gunther, Marlon, and other non-interactive NPCs are decided to not be friends with the farmer, since they don't have gift tastes.

[uncut relic]

hey hey, trying to make a shop mod, is it possible to make sell items according to their contexttags? i want to make it sell only mushrooms (not other forage items)

[latent mauve]

They're not even social, just map tiles!

[ornate drift]

still not interactable even after the gifttastes load

[gaunt orbit]

this is hideous but I think it's the best way to do it

[latent mauve]

Did you sleep, Speedy?

[latent mauve]

Yes, I have a test mod that does just that

[ornate drift]

huh what

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/38f91d3aeab84dd09f546cb0fba705d5

this is the gifttastes json

[dreamy dew]

That's so sad! #freeGunther #freeMarlon

[uncut relic]

tell me your secrets!!!

https://tenor.com/view/balthazar-crazy-family-guy-fou-gif-11775947423386520412

[torpid sparrow]

did u include this

[latent mauve]

Sometimes a sleep in game is needed for the NPC to update themselves (even after a patch reload), though it's more specifically for schedules usually

[torpid sparrow]

it looks like its in a new json but maybe not? idk

[ornate drift]

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/a162f70bbf5f4a5f83b35eec5d9107c1

i did include it yeah

[latent mauve]

It's done through the magic of item queries. Lemme get to a computer and I can share the code

[dreamy dew]

I asked this before in the vanilla channel, but I'll ask them here, which here are most common to spawn, and which don't as often? Lava Bat, Lava Crab, Metal Head, Red Slime, Shadow Brute, Shadow Shaman, or Squid Kid?

[ornate drift]

i see

[dreamy dew]

They appear in the deepest levels of the Mines.

[slow basin]

heeheeeheee

she looks so cute 😭

[ornate drift]

this is just a basic setup

[latent mauve]

@uncut relic this one's a little extra, because I wanted to use it to get a quick list of the foods installed that fit a particular category, so there's a token used that you might not need if you want a specific tag that isn't going to change: https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/fb4e2704a5f1440ea390f1ee5f68f5e9

I was using it to make Gus sell all the food of a category that I chose from the config. xD

[ornate drift]

did not work either

hmmm

[latent mauve]

anything in the console log?

[ornate drift]

no errors it seems

just doesnt let me interact

[latent mauve]

alright, lemme scroll up to see if I can find your Data/Characters entry and the dialogue file again

[ornate drift]

are you sure there isnt supposed to be a "CanBeInteracted: "true" string in Dispos?

[vernal crest]

NPCs do not actually have to have gift tastes to be able to be spoken to

[ornate drift]

what i have atm

[vernal crest]

Regular dialogue works without gift tastes. Conversation Topics (like Introduction) and location dialogue do not work.

[ornate drift]

introdcution is the one im testing rn

but i did include gift tastes earlier

[dreamy dew]

Wait, what's the difference between the Shadow Guy and the Shadow Brute monsters?

[latent mauve]

That would be "CanSocialize" typically. BUT your Data/Characters has the internal NPC name as {{ModId}}.Manny and your files have {{ModId}}_Manny

you need those to match

[slow basin]

oop glad im testing some of these lines

[ornate drift]

oh waiiitttttt

god damnit

[slow basin]

beaufitul

[hard fern]

beaufitul

[ornate drift]

fellowclown is goated

[latent mauve]

She's so colorful, I love her ❤️

[ornate drift]

so should it be . or _

[latent mauve]

It doesn't matter which you use as long as you are consistent

[uncut relic]

so all i need is one "DynamicTokens" with the edible_mushroom contexttag & add it at the "PerItemCondition":, right?

[ornate drift]

ah ok gotcha

[vernal crest]

The important thing is that they match, but better to use _ because mods like Lookup Anything expect that format

[ornate drift]

time to test

[latent mauve]

you don't need a dynamic token at all unless you want one, you can just replace {{shopcontext_tag}} with your actual desired Context Tag

The PerItemCondition is the important part though, yes. If you don't include it, Gus will sell EVERYTHING in the Data/Objects file, because the ItemID is only for filtering Objects xD

[ornate drift]

okay so the button is THERE

but it doesnt do anything when i click

[hard fern]

any errors in log?

[uncut relic]

"PerItemCondition": "ITEM_CONTEXT_TAG Target {{mushroom_item}}" only this & i'm set?

[ornate drift]

doesnt seem to show any, no

[latent mauve]

the {{ }} are part of the token, so those can be removed.

[uncut relic]

"PerItemCondition": "ITEM_CONTEXT_TAG Target mushroom_item"

[latent mauve]

without looking up the context tag list, that seems right

[uncut relic]

tnx, you are awesome /big imaginary web hug 🙂

[latent mauve]

The Introduction conversation topic will only trigger if you're within the first few days of your save, IIRC. What day are you on and are you willing to try a different dialogue key?

[ornate drift]

ill do a diff dialogue key yeah
also year 6

[latent mauve]

haha

That is not within the first 6 days of your save, so probably why Introduction won't work xD

I think it's 6 or something around that number

[tiny zealot]

we are getting a different key that will trigger on first interaction without a time limit (or use of CT) in either 1.6.16 or 1.7, i forget which

[latent mauve]

Nice

In the meantime, $1 at the start of a dialogue will make that text only show up one time, yeah?

[tiny zealot]

de-hardcoding krobus's behavior lol

[brave fable]

i've never heard of $1 one-time dialogue

[latent mauve]

I remember reading it once on the wiki

[brave fable]

interesting since you can technically put your portrait commands anywhere in the dialogue line, so someone might use $1 as a portrait command and then have their dialogue one-timed

[tiny zealot]

$1 automatically sets a mail flag and chooses from the two parts of the dialogue based on having the flag

[latent mauve]

$1 <letter ID>#<1st-time text> #$e# <nth-time text> this one

It has to have the $1 specifically at the front

(Alternatively, I believe you can use a trigger action to set your own conversation topic if the NPC is added mid-save and use that instead of Introduction)

There's a few NPCs that use that method for "I just moved in" type dialogue

[ornate drift]

fucking finally

[slow basin]

i think my mod is done 😭

It has stuff i'd like to add in future updates maybe but its good for release

most things would be like maybe in the future having Kandi mail you stuff or having more compat with other mods

[ornate drift]

wait so if spring, fall, winter, and summer dialogue exist
whats the point in having generic dialogue

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/3a61b5668f844ca08756bcc0fbe2f56c

like theres so many strings in the dialogue json i might as well not make generic dialogue

oh wait the numbers are supposed to stand for the relationship level.........

fuck

i thought it was like the 2nd monday 4th monday 6th monday and so on

[hard fern]

if you have a dialogue for every day of the week, for each season, i dont think you'll ever see generic day of the week dialogue that isn't attached to any season 🤔

[ornate drift]

true

do i just delete ones i dont want?

[hard fern]

the dialogue priority is like, based on how specific it is, and it looks for the most specific one first before going down the line. so like if you have dialogue for a specific day you'll see that one over the others 🤔 i think

[devout otter]

The point is for lazy people like me who doesn't wanna make seasonal dialogue.

[ornate drift]

i wanna make seasonal dialogue for only the first day of the season

the rest can go to the trash

so introduction + generic dialogue based on relationship level + festivals/events + first day of each season

maybe like this?

oh wait mb

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/af62b65ae6514d0787f031338ce8674a

[round dock]

Yep that’s doable too, just input the keys correspondingly

If you just want their dialogue from a random pool, randomization is your friend

[ornate drift]

the original NPCs work like that as well

so itd only make sense to do that

[buoyant moon]

okay I've gotten into a decent pattern for events starting with dialogue, blocking, then putting it together and testing while tweaking timing/actions

dunno how other people tend to go about it but I've found what works for me at least

[devout otter]

Pretty much. Though fall_Mon would make him say it every Monday in fall, not just the first day.

[ornate drift]

oh
uh
what do i change it to

[devout otter]

The key should be spring_1_*

For 1st of Spring.

[ornate drift]

i see
thanks

[vernal crest]

The dialogue page of the wiki will help you with dialogue key precedence and how they each work

[ornate drift]

i did watch it for #b# and different expressions

and for revealing items the NPC likes or hates

[vernal crest]

Is there any way I can do this with Merge instead?

"Query: ({{HasMod |contains= lemurkat.eastscarp}} AND {{CT_Compatibility |contains=Automatic}}) OR {{CT_Compatibility |contains=ESR}}": true```

[eager tree]

could anyone post my mod for me here? i don't have lvl 25 yet

[round dock]

The modding wiki for dialogue pretty much outlines all of the keys you can peruse, depending on what you want to do

[ornate locust]

Pop up a link and sure

[eager tree]

Here! My mod that makes the Ginger Island more fantasy-like
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/43626

[ornate locust]

There you go. Pretty!

[long jungle]

Hii!!!

Is there a way to make my mod load before another mod so that their edits can supercede mine?

[ornate locust]

You can lower the priority of your edits

like this map edit is "late" priority, you'd want "Early"

[long jungle]

Okay thanks! I'll read about priorities.

[ornate locust]

If you want to ensure a specific mod loads in relation to yours, it's unfortunately easier to do the other way around. Making your mod load after another one, I mean.

[long jungle]

Nice example.

[ornate locust]

that can be done with a false dependency. But making sure yours loads first, you'd need to fiddle with priorities

[long jungle]

Yup. Dependencies. It's the easiest to do.

[long jungle]

Thanks again!! I'm gonna go work on that.

[boreal dagger]

crawls in

[boreal dagger]

YOINK

runs

[hard fern]

is there any way to tell which tiles are in use by which maps without going into the map itself?

[brave fable]

which tilesheets? yes, you can use Ctrl+Shift+F in your preferred text editor and search your unpacked content folder for the tilesheet names. which individual tiles? nope

[hard fern]

im doomed.

[brave fable]

now you get scrappy ugly roses that you can prune to restore to their youthful former glory. how fortunate for you

[uncut viper]

I am very pleased with this turn of events

Can i get a separate item data definition for my pruning shears

[brave fable]

way ahead of you

[uncut viper]

Stellar

[hard fern]

tree so cool

the pink background is very blueberry

[brave fable]

pantone 'shade of ripening blueberry'

[slow basin]

im 👌 this close to changing my NPC mod I want to make next to a mini expansion thats mostkly just for my own amusement

the premise is simple

Strawberry soda is way better than Joja Cola and you should buy it instead

idk fi itsd quite an expansion as it'd only include one npc and a handful of items and possibly recipes and maybe some clothes if i feel like it

[hard fern]

so glad my npc is symmetrical.

[slow basin]

do you need C# to make animated objets/buildings

or ig more so buildings then objects

[hard fern]

no

[slow basin]

awesome

[cedar thorn]

they're so cute

[void aspen]

You need tiled for that iirc, which has built in function to animate tiles

[slow basin]

ooh ok

[void aspen]

Is there a guide for tiled specifically for sdv stuff I wonder

For animations, tileset importing, terrain brushes

[brave fable]

for some reason --unlocalized fails to read the first file alphabetically by walk, but the same command unpacks fine without this arg

[uncut viper]

are you sure that's not to do with it being 1.6.16

[brave fable]

it seems unlikely given line 185 is checking assetName[^6] == '.'

[uncut viper]

i don't know why it would be but I didn't test it on 1.6.16 and I didn't run into that

[slow basin]

things i need to make for my new project

• popcorn machine
• ticket booth
• lion (building thing thing for map like those NPCS that show up for the fall festival
• elephant (same as above)
  i might make the popcorn machine furniture if it comes out good

[uncut viper]

oh was hats localized before

[brave fable]

sir this is brown cow.png

[uncut viper]

I'm on mobile and was literally getting into bed when you pinged me I've earned some slack

i don't suppose you have another idea why Brown Cow nres on that

[brave fable]

haha dont worry then, i'll try running with debugger to see why assetname is apparently not 6 chars long

[uncut viper]

Er not nre. Intex oob

Index

[brave fable]

not sure how i'll attach it given sdvxnbh wants to be in the game folder but i'm sure it's simple

[uncut viper]

tbh a regex probably would've been better I just was lazy and figured pathos wasn't against that kind of check since I think I've seen the ^# used before in his code
I could be misremembering though

i wonder why it'd fail for you and not me though

[brave fable]

how about instead of checking against a list of languages you delete any files containing unicode characters

begone french

now stop thinking about merge requests and go to bed

[uncut viper]

idk what if CA adds Cursors-3-₹.xnb in 1.7

[slow basin]

you can make a festival with content patcher as long as its passive or something right?

[brave fable]

personally i'm hoping for ௵.mgfx

[hard fern]

oh....

[inner harbor]

Has anyone here made custom weddings that work with multiplayer? I fear i may have bungled mine up...

(Ill probably just disable them in coop)

[frozen elm]

If I remember right it automatically uses the warp out location that you set. If you have more warps make sure it's the last one

[hard fern]

hmm. is there any way to make a character not show up in the social menu even after talking to them until you meet certain conditions

[hollow dust]

woops, accidentally deleted my message, but thanks you thank youuuuu:))) I got it working just fine:3

[frozen elm]

Hehe no worries 🙂 glad you got it working

[vernal crest]

Initial data/characters patch have value set to HiddenAlways. Then have a second patch targeting just that field to change it once the conditions are met.

[hard fern]

got it, thanks

[dreamy dew]

Good evening, can someone help me pinpoint where these <songsHeard> IDs from?

clubloop
50s
jaunty
There are some I found out based on, well, common sense:
EmilyDream - Emily's 2-heart event
sampractice - Sam's 2-heart event

[barren tapir]

Would this help?
https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Audio

[dreamy dew]

Thank you! Couldn't find that before, as I've been searching for "music," "song," or "sound", forgetting the term "audio". lol

[barren tapir]

No problem! I was in that exact same boat yesterday 🤣

[dreamy dew]

Do you know about the differences of these monsters data IDs? They're more vague on the wiki.

Skeleton; Skeleton Warrior; Skeleton Mage
Shadow Guy; Shadow Brute; Shadow Shaman

Skeleton and Skeleton Mage are referred in the Mines, so are Shadow Brute and Shadow Shaman, while the remaining two are... just there?

Unless they are derivatives of either or both their variants.

[vernal crest]

They are unused

[barren tapir]

No clue. I haven't looked at monster logic yet 😅

[dreamy dew]

Which are specifically?

I can assume Shadow Guy but I'm confused about either Skeleton or Skeleton Warrior.

Are the normal Skeleton monsters not called "Warrior"? I thought it makes sense.

[vernal crest]

Shadow Guy and skeleton warrior

[dreamy dew]

Okay, thank you for the info.

And may I ask for clarification, that dangerous counterparts of some monsters share the same data ID as their regular ones if they don't have or aren't listed in the modding data page?

[vernal crest]

I find the player namespace of the wiki is helpful for this because the wiki is very thorough in what it documents of gameplay

I don't know about dangerous monsters, their info isn't in data so I assume it's hardcoded. Can you read C#?

[dreamy dew]

Unfortunately, no. I may try to manually test it out and see what is going to be cumulated, but I haven't reached the dangerous mode of the Mines in my current save.

[vernal crest]

What info specifically do you need about the monsters?

[dreamy dew]

Ah, I just wanted to pinpoint or find out where they land or go under what data ID when killed/slayed.

[vernal crest]

For what purpose?

[dreamy dew]

Oh! Mm, what about finding out which are more common to spawn/appear on each levels of the Mines? Regular, dark, icy, and then the lava one.

[vernal crest]

(Also if you want to check, you can just make a test save and then use console commands to set the mines to be dangerous immediately)

[dreamy dew]

I would like to create a chronological order of tables of these kinds of things.

[vernal crest]

This is sounding more like gameplay stuff than modmaking

[dreamy dew]

So I can make a personal planner with a notepad or something, and I usually write down what they are for, especially numbers like events and stuff.

[vernal crest]

Have you checked the wiki to see if that info is already there?

[dreamy dew]

Sorry. I did talk about this before in the vanilla channel, but was asked to move to modding, I assumed modded. But then I was asked to just move to making mods because presumably players who create mods have delved into the codes of the game.

[lucid iron]

Hm what's the final vision of the thing you wanna make

Mod or otherwise

[vernal crest]

I don't know why anyone would say it's modding if you're just wanting to find out vanilla gameplay stuff

[dreamy dew]

Generic - floors minimum to maximum, but they never really reveal if, say, a grub appearing more often than a fly (not the slow roaming bugs), for example.

[dreamy dew]

Non-mod, it's a table or planner for me, but I want to use the data ID they occupy to better familiarize myself at the same time.

[vernal crest]

That does sound like you'll need to learn to read C# then

So you can read the decompiled code

[lucid iron]

!decompile

[ocean sail]

If you want to make SMAPI mods with C#, one important resource is decompiling the game to read the game code. Here's how to do it: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Modder_Guide/Get_Started#How_do_I_decompile_the_game_code.3F

To use this command, type !decompile.

[dreamy dew]

I guess talking about it in the vanilla channel feels like talking about something technical, while their usual topics are just the surface-level or in-game playthroughs, not specifically about what's under the hood.

Spam bot?

[vernal crest]

I'll take care of it

[dreamy dew]

I will, don't worry. I'm just... slowly easing into it, I guess. lolol

[vernal crest]

However Chu is the one who knows stuff about monsters so I'll leave you to them

[lucid iron]

No idk anything bye

[unreal falcon]

Hello, can someone help again? im doing a mod that add a fruit but the sprites doesnt show and i dont know what i am doing wrong

[fossil osprey]

!json probably first

[ocean sail]

JSON is a standard format for machine-readable text files that's used by Stardew Valley mods.

If you need help with a JSON file, you can upload it to smapi.io/json to see automatic validation and share the link here.

When making mods, it's recommended to edit your files in a text editor with JSON support, such as VS Code, Notepad++, or Sublime Text. These programs will check for syntax errors.

To use this command, type !json.

[fossil osprey]

!log maybe also

[ocean sail]

Important note: Your computer username may appear in the log. If your username is your full name, please be aware of this before uploading it.

Please share your SMAPI log file. To do so:

1. Open this page: smapi.io/log.
2. Follow the instructions at the top of the page to upload the log file. (Don't copy & paste from the console window!)
3. After uploading, it will show a green box with a URL to share. Post that URL here.

Please do it even if you don't see any errors. This has useful info like what mods and versions you have, what the mods are doing, etc. If the issue didn’t occur in your last session, please load the game to the point where the issue occurs, then upload the log.

To use this command, type !log.

you can still use newer language versions

also wow I updated tile for the first time in years and the interface looks a lot nicer than it used to

hello everyone, how do I add a custom object to a vanilla NPCs gift tastes? I know how to append objects to the universal ones but I am not sure what to target if I want to add object X to maru's loved gifts

[valid folio]

Hi! A question: what condition should I use for Pierre to sell a specific item starting from a certain season? I want him to sell three fruit trees starting in Winter of Year 1, but I’m not quite sure which condition to use.

[lucid iron]

You need a text operation append delimited

[merry river]

Do you have an example for that?

[lucid iron]

Not on hand

https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/develop/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/text-operations.md#append

Hrm what is the thing that targeted into the field

[latent mauve]

TargetField: ["Entries", "Universal_Love"] was the example in the docs, I think? (Rate limiting is back on mobile)

[devout otter]

TargetField: ["Fields", "Maru", "#1"] should be what you need.

Whereas #1 is the index of the entry.

[torpid sparrow]

hmm i did that and then my delimiter didnt work

or at least someone reported it not working gonna test myself now

its showing up like this

i did add the delimiter is the fields wrong

[devout otter]

Is that supposed to be a liked gift?

[torpid sparrow]

uuhh yea

[devout otter]

Then the number should be 3.

[quasi dew]

any tips for added sounds suddenly not working in game?

[torpid sparrow]

guh why does it say 2,3

on wiki

[devout otter]

Index #2 is the Liked message. Index #3 is the Liked items.

[torpid sparrow]

ahh

yay fixed it thank u dolphin

[subtle condor]

Okay, so, I have looked into this Mod and I think my Code might actually be fine. First of all, even though my Mod should be very flexible, I still think I don't need to make the Map Overrides dynamic in any way. I give a modder the possibility to add a ParrotUpgradePerch and when it is completed, it should trigger a Map Override and this does not need to be a reversible Override at all XD It can be persistent. Hence, since you also mentioned multiplayer compatibility, the way my code actually works is, when any player completes a ParrotUpgradePerch, I only sent out a message to the master player. Then, I do Game1.MasterPlayer.mailReceived.OnValueAdded and then I do the Map Override. This automatically adds the Override for all players and more importantly, I also provide the possibility to make a blank ParrotUpgradePerch, which will only result in a Mailflag being added, when the Parrot is completed. So if anyone wants to do more complex stuff and wants to add a dynamic Override, or if he wants to do literally anything, he can do it on his own by checking for the Mailflag. Sooo, concluding, my relatively simple code should be fine I think

[lucid iron]

If u want u can tell ppl to use Content Patcher editmap with your mailflag

So it's like this

1. On completion apply map override one time for instant change
2. After that you let content patcher do it

[subtle condor]

Okay, the only scenario I am realizing now, is, when a player joins the game AFTER the Parrot, the Override might not be there. I guess I'll also add the Override for when SaveLoaded

[lucid iron]

So that u don't have to worry about reapplying it

unlockable bundles does this approach iirc

[subtle condor]

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense, I might trust Content Patcher more for persisting Map changes XD

[lucid iron]

The reason why mmap does it this way is because it's analog to farmhouse renovations

For a case when someone would remove and add overrides many times

[subtle condor]

Yeah, but I think I don't actually need that, because if a modder wants to do that, he could use this mod on his own and just make mine handle the flag

But still, thank you though I am really at the very beginning of programming and getting into all that XD

[ornate drift]

would it make sense for a bakery to sell these

[lucid iron]

Cake

[ornate drift]

i kinda don't know what other desserts exist

[lucid iron]

Tiramisu

Donuts and donut holes

[ornate drift]

A bakery sells tiramisu....???

oh wait im dumb nvm

[torpid sparrow]

Oh my god I can’t believe I forgot this

I need to make and add it asap

[lucid iron]

Yea they do, tho i guess there's like bread focused bakery and cake focused bakery

Bread places would sell like croissants n shit

[ornate drift]

i literally don't know ANY of the names so I'm gonna have to guess what they look like 💔

[lucid iron]

Speedy do u play the game

[ornate drift]

year 8 yeah

[jaunty shuttle]

We need cute bear cupcakes please

[lucid iron]

I believe in u but also wiki's right there

!itemids

[ocean sail]

Item IDs

https://mateusaquino.github.io/stardewids/

To use this command, type !itemids.

[lucid iron]

Also useful site

[ornate drift]

the chef is a bear so

yay

ima make it

[jaunty shuttle]

Exactly

[ornate drift]

or baker

[lucid iron]

Iirc there is a context tag for some of these goods

[ornate drift]

idk what they call it

[jaunty shuttle]

I have a thing for cute cupcake decorating

[lucid iron]

So you don't have to specify the exact items

[tranquil olive]

food_bakery might help (I think that's the tag-)

[ornate drift]

ima try that

[torpid sparrow]

Do I do both regular and matcha tiramisu

Hmm I don’t have earl gray tea or a London fog

[tranquil olive]

yes

[torpid sparrow]

How did I forget those

[ornate drift]

wouldn't that mean I'd have to add a custom item + make a specified gift taste for all the NPCs in the game if the player decides to gift them

[torpid sparrow]

You can add to universal tastes

[lucid iron]

I thought there's only one kind of tiramisu

[ornate drift]

oh true

[torpid sparrow]

I mean regular tiramisu yeah

It’s with coffee

[lucid iron]

The thing with the coffee and cookies

[tranquil olive]

classic tiramisu has the coffee, but I've seen delicious matcha ones too

[torpid sparrow]

But you can do the same tiramisu structure but use different liquid/powder

[tranquil olive]

I think I've even seen a strawberry one, but that might be more of a deviation

[torpid sparrow]

And switch up the mascarpone filling as well

Flavour it differently

[ornate drift]

does it make sense to sell strange bun

... it's a strange bun

[jaunty shuttle]

I mean, assuming bear is of another species, sure

[tranquil olive]

buns do exist at bakeries, depends on the kind of bakery you want

[ornate drift]

ok so donuts don't exist
ima have to add that myself

[tranquil olive]

the maple bar might work too, I think Sam calls it a doughnut or something

[torpid sparrow]

Yes

[ornate drift]

i see

[torpid sparrow]

Maple bars are donuts

It’s a type of donut

There are crullers and fritters

[ornate drift]

whats the max size for an item

[odd wagon]

hiiii

[ornate drift]

like width and height

[tranquil olive]

16x16

[torpid sparrow]

16x16

[ornate drift]

sweet

tbis is like the most basic donut i can make

feels a lil too big though

[torpid sparrow]

mm yummy

London fog and two tiramisus

That’s good enuf I think

[mortal blade]

Mmmm... matcha tiramisu!

[ornate drift]

[jaunty shuttle]

Oooooo yum!!

What kind of donuts are they?

[ornate drift]

Plain - Strawberry - Matcha - Chocolate - Cranberry

the bottom ones are basically donuts without holes

[mortal blade]

No powdermelon?!!?

j/k

[ornate drift]

oh oops

lemme add that

[torpid sparrow]

oughhh yummy donut

[ornate drift]

powdermelon has a cake variant right?

[mortal blade]

I was joking, m8.

[ornate drift]

well there's a blue cake in the game LOL

only makes sense to add it

[mortal blade]

r'Amen.

This is the Way

[tranquil olive]

those doughnuts look delicious and sam-approved
also your sprites look lovely wem, makes me want to make a london fog

[ornate drift]

i like the layering
would eat

[jaunty shuttle]

The type with jam inside?

[ornate drift]

Yeah and on top as well

[jaunty shuttle]

Yummmm

[mortal blade]

Matcha Jam mod, when?

[ornate drift]

actually wait maybe i should add blueberry

[mortal blade]

Sweet Gem berry.

Ancient fruit

Gold foil!

Question, I have Gingerbread Goats that you milk for Gingerbread Batter but I also want them to drop Icing Horns like the chickens drop eggs - I'm using extra animal configs but I'm not exactly sure how to indicate that I want them to drop them like a chicken

[brittle pasture]

have you looked at the example section in the bottom (the Goat Cashmere example)

anyway you'd add a new entry to extra drops, and then another entry to drop data override to change that drop's harvest method to drop

[opaque field]

ahh, right I forgot about "drop overnight" duh ty

[torpid sparrow]

does free love work with modded npcs?

if i dont do anything out of the ordinary with my npc will it be compatible with free love?

[fossil osprey]

I think so yeah

[jaunty shuttle]

Should be

The second one

[brittle pasture]

show your code?

[brittle pasture]

typo second entry, you're still loading into Characters

[sullen rain]

OH

[lucid iron]

i see that you never loaded the tilesheet, but this does look like custom house

[merry river]

That's what I was trying to figure out! So I need to target the according index number. Thanks

[lucid iron]

is the tilesheet that this house is on png format?

[mossy flame]

Yes

[lucid iron]

are you sure it's transparent

[merry river]

which layer is the house on

[mossy flame]

maybe i can send the png?

[mossy flame]

Most of them are building

[lucid iron]

sure if u want

[mossy flame]

the ones that we walk on is back

[void aspen]

It looks like it could be on Back layer completely

Without anything under it

Or on any other layer still having nothing under it

[mossy flame]

alr this is the one (its tile by tile, just placed perfectly)

[merry river]

does discord support transparency

[void aspen]

It does

Even for gifs

[lucid iron]

yea ur house is not transparent background

[merry river]

then it is not transparent

[lucid iron]

need to delete all the black color

[void aspen]

This is png but background isn't transparent

[mossy flame]

Oh i see then

oh and also

not only the house is black but also other things

like i can show it one sec

when i load the map mod itself it also glitches other tiles too

[void aspen]

Your house cursed the game with some black plague or smth

[lucid iron]

this just looks like you painted besides just the house with these black non transparent tiles

[mossy flame]

:D

[lucid iron]

i did notice that your patch is editing the entire forest

dont do that and instead just target where you want to put the house

[mossy flame]

well i dont know soo i edited the entire map itself

[mossy flame]

ohh thank you

is there any guidance that i can follow?

[merry river]

let me grab a link from the modding wiki

[lucid iron]

https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/develop/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/action-editmap.md#overlay-a-map

Okay so i need to fix the black background to make it transparent and i should only use the "FromArea" for the House?

[merry river]

https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/Tutorial:_Map_Patches_and_Warps#Creating_the_Map_Patch_(house_exterior)

thank you too

[torpid sparrow]

is there a gsq or a condition for if the island resort has been built

[void aspen]

Some stuff there seems a little bit outdated I think

But generally looks interesting

Gotta learn it too

[brittle summit]

hi I'm new at mod making and am starting very ambitiously i think but also v stubborn so i am determined to see it through. i've been very hesitant and anxious about joining the community and chatting and asking questions. i dont have a particular modding issue rn but am sending this message rn in the hopes that it will be less scary when i actually have a question lol

[merry river]

there's the mail flag Island_Resort

[urban patrol]

welcome!

[merry river]

why is there so much space lol

[hard fern]

How much of a pain in the ass would it be to overhaul leo

[merry river]

hi, everyone here is super chill and patient

[merry river]

imo any kind of npc modding is a pain in the ass

[hard fern]

This would be closer to making an npc replacer than a custom one 🤔

[torpid sparrow]

thanks!

[merry river]

Are you just replacing sprites?

[hard fern]

Sprites and portrsits were the last thing i was thinking of even touching lol

My idea was just to replace his whole character (as in personality)

And heart events and such

But idk gi kinda scares me lol. I dont know what's in there

[merry river]

I mean you would have to patch the events, dialogue etc etc. it really depends on your definition of "pain in the ass"

[urban patrol]

events are events no matter where you go

[hard fern]

I guess i just want to know is there anything i need to watch out for haha

[merry river]

and they are a pain no matter where

[urban patrol]

not that i know of

i think the worst thing is going to be compatibility if you want that

[hard fern]

I think i could care less about compatibility for a project like this XD

[urban patrol]

excellent news for your sanity lol

[hard fern]

Im pretty much twisting an entire section of the game to fit my vision so i can make a grand total of two npcs so

[swift gust]

i think i finally got my first mod to a state where it won't need to be updated for a while

textoperations my beloved

[buoyant moon]

If changing preconditions for a vanilla event with Content Patcher (i.e. adding a new key with the same value and nulling the original because of how the keys work), is there any way to reference the original event script as a variable/token and not have to copy/paste the entire original string?

[half tangle]

Is there an easy way to see a list of all items in the item registry that have a particular context tag? I know debug listtags shows the tags on the held item, but I'm looking for sorta the other way around where I can see a list of all the items tagged e.g. with color_yellow

[swift gust]

i just wrote a tutorial on how to do this https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/Tutorial:_Editing_Events

wait i misunderstood. most existing files create a new one and call it _old. like "sun_old" as the key

[brittle summit]

if no one gives you a better idea, Ctrl+F search of the specific context tag in the objects.json could help.

[half tangle]

That's a good idea, but ideally this would cover any loaded item and not just vanilla. I'm just gonna write a console command myself... worst case is I'm just duplicating work someone else has done.

[brittle summit]

ah yea that makes sense

[torpid sparrow]

hmm does anyone know where the picnic blanket is

from leah's event

the tilesheet

[urban patrol]

cursors

i think

[half tangle]

penny's blanket is in cursors... maybe leah's is the same one

[torpid sparrow]

yepp thank u

always cursors

[mortal blade]

Cursors you Perry the TileSheet!

[ornate drift]

does Stardew use pure white?

[jaunty shuttle]

Almost never iirc, in most cases it uses white with some other underlying tone

[ornate drift]

I see...

Noted, thanks

[mortal blade]

If I paint with pure white, it's always with a transparency mask. 😉

[pale torrent]

(Sorry idk if this is the right channel to poste)

I NEED HELP FOR SPRITES IN DETAIL Okay, so I recently posted that I'm making a muscle mod for Stardew Valley with bigger sprites. I'm using the Sprites in Detail mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/14487).

I'm not a coder at all, but I tried my best to make the mod work with the player sprites because I want to change those and make them bigger too. Could somebody who knows how to code maybe help with this? I’ve really tried everything.

I also don’t understand GitHub very well. The creator of the mod said he can be contacted there, but I can’t find where to send a message

if somebody can help i can offer to make them a custom character sprite in Return

[lucid iron]

i don't think what you want can be done, sprites in detail is for npc sprites

you may want to look at fashion sense instead

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/23740

[torpid sparrow]

are we able to use the farmer laughing animation in events?

and if so...how

[pale torrent]

The problem is i dont know if fashion sense will let me make the sprite bigger and also lets me make them smaller so they fit into the world

[lucid iron]

i think it does do that, but its not something i attempted

but i am near certain that sprites in detail does not affect farmer sprite in any way

[pale torrent]

Oh man i really just want to make them like my big guys so people can have different body types ugh

[torpid sparrow]

oh i tried something and it did not work out

[lucid iron]

well i do think u can do that given that this exist https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/39038

but if you want them to do the usual farmer animations it's going to be many more sprites

[pale torrent]

Spriting is really not the problem i never worked with fashion sense before

[lucid iron]

https://github.com/Floogen/FashionSense/wiki/Creating-an-Body-Content-Pack

if u have questions about this i think peacefulend (FS creator) is prob best person to ask

[pale torrent]

OMG

THIS IS LIKE EXACTLY WHAT I NEED

[lucid iron]

but yea im fairly sure u can do what u want

[hard fern]

cursed.

[pale torrent]

Omg that means i can make body types for people like buff curvy thin or chubby AHHH IM SO EXCITED THANK YOUUZ

[near imp]

yesterday someone shared some framework or something that lets you patch/edit parts of other mods, and i cant believe i didnt bookmark it and now i cant find it again Does anyone know the thing i mean?

[lucid iron]

i dont recommend using that

what is your usecase exactly?

[near imp]

its just for personal use if that matters?

[hard fern]

if its for personal use can't you just edit the mod itself

[near imp]

i just want matchy matchy textures

[lucid iron]

for personal use you should probably just edit the pngs

[near imp]

as usual (massive sigh why am i like this) i ran into an edge case where cracking another mod open for personal edits falls short. trying to add a summer version of a pine tree texture to match the custom summer version from my personal stuff. but its not a content patcher mod, its a .dll with a few pngs in an assets folder. so im not sure if theres a way to override what version is shown in summer ? idk.

[lucid iron]

that depends on how exactly they loaded it

and the thing from yesterday won't help anyways

[near imp]

awh. what is the thing from yesterday, just for reference? i like to keep everything bookmarked, even stuff thats not applicable currently

[lucid iron]

it let you reference other mod's pngs basically

[lucid iron]

but yea for this we have to actually know what the C# mod is

if they do have loose png tho editing that will definitely work

[near imp]

the default game doesnt have a summer version of the pine tree, it uses the spring texture for both seasons. was relatively simple to write a content patcher mod that changes the spring texture only in summer for interactive and tilesheet trees. but my beloved ControlTree mod has its own set of textures, that is used when you shrink the trees down for visibility

so the ControlTree mod is not set up for any kind of summer pine nonsense

[lucid iron]

in that case you would probably have to actually edit the dll

i.e. make your own C# mod

[near imp]

oofs in scope creep

might have to do with spring texture for summer for now then

[near imp]

sir/maam/other may i kindly have the name of said framework unless its like a voldemort thing where we shant even say the name /lh

im aware it wont help in this case, but its bugging me so bad that i cant find it again now and i might wanna use it for something else later

[ornate locust]

You can reference other mods PNGs with SMAPI now, can't you

[hard fern]

only if theyve loaded it, no? 🤔

[ornate locust]

Nope

that's how I removed extra dependencies for the Haley's Bakery patch

though I'm not sure you can do it in a way that lets you edit the image... I just needed to be able to USE the image in a map patch

so I didn't slice off the roof of the building

[lucid iron]

its called asset bridge but like midnight said u dont need it anymore

and its not even useful for ur current situation

[ornate locust]

(Maybe you can, I'm just not sure, so I phrased it as a question)

[near imp]

hmm. now to find out if i can make content patcher target the spring texture of ControlTree's pngs only in summer

[lucid iron]

you will have to figure out if they even loaded to content pipeline

[near imp]

not entirely sure what that means, but i suspect i get the general idea. that however the .dll mod loads and uses its textures might be different from content patcher way (?) and/or even if i got content patcher to swap out some files i suspect theres no guarantee that the other mod will care about it, depending on how it loads its textures. like if it loads the spring one just once at the start of the game then its not gonna care that something was swapped out in a system it might not even use. im probably not making much sense but yeah

alright, lets see if something explodes or nothing happens

[near imp]

aw, does nothing. well, sorta expected that. fun to try anyway

[jaunty shuttle]

@woeful lintel Can I have a furniture that has 2 different textures depending on if it's placed in a specific furniture's slot or not?

Like for example I have a train toy. I have a dinosaur toy. If you click on the train with the dinosaur toy, it puts the dinosaurs on the train, but if you just put the dinosaurs on the ground (and/or on a table), it looks like the top image/the dinosaur toy itself

[onyx panther]

hey, is there some way to make like a delayed effect on food buffs? like after a period of time it actually takes effect?

[opaque cobalt]

So, the mod is working, but Smapi is throwing this error. The comment next to change is the actual file name of the portraits and sprites. What it could it still be trying to pull XNB file for, but also be fully working? That is where I'm confused. I added an extra comment, text changed from red warning to yellow and is now working? I have no idea at this point

[urban patrol]

i haven't looked at your log yet but when it throws an error about looking for an XNB, that's just what it defaults to when it can't find an asset. it doesn't specifically need an XNB file

you need to load something to Kent_Class_A_Green

is this portraits for an appearance?

[opaque cobalt]

That is where I'm confused because that is the name of the files and I used the same formatting for my seasonal Penny mod without these issues.

Yes portraits and a sprite for appearance

[urban patrol]

what's your folder setup look like

[opaque cobalt]

[CP] Kent Dress Uniform Class A Green\assets\portraits
[CP] Kent Dress Uniform Class A Green\assets\characters

[urban patrol]

just to troubleshoot, does it work if you split that load into two patches and specify the filepath without using tokens

[barren tapir]

When making a repeatable special order, should the JSON look like "Repeatable": true/false,, or should it look like "Repeatable": "True"/"False",?

[opaque cobalt]

Yep, directly overwriting the files works. Sorry for slowness.

[urban patrol]

i always put true and false, but i'm pretty sure if you put them in quotes it still works anyway

[urban patrol]

i think there must be something up with your tokens then? idk, i've never used them like that before

you can try parsing that

https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/develop/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/troubleshooting.md#parse

[barren tapir]

And am I correct that "Repeatable: true" results in a special order that can be done again even after its been completed? Bc I swear I'm getting the opposite behavior

[urban patrol]

idk anything about special orders beyond what the wiki says

[opaque cobalt]

I based it off of how some other mod did appearances. Just confused what black magic I did to get it to work for one but not the other. Since this one has a lot less files, may just do it the simplified way of writing full path

[urban patrol]

it might be worth exporting special orders to see if your SO is being set to repeatable true

yeah without parsing it i wouldn't know why it's failing

[half tangle]

BETAS has a DelayedAction trigger action that I think does what you're asking about

[opaque cobalt]

Thank you for the help with troubleshooting Nic

[barren tapir]

UGGGHHH. Okay, I give up on trying to figure out the repeatable special orders. They are such a pain to debug

[onyx panther]

yeah that does sound perfect, buffs have an an start trigger action thing apparently lol

[lucid iron]

Are u doing trinket tinker specifically

[onyx panther]

(so I could do like a hangover type thing with drinking alcohol via a mod maybe)

[lucid iron]

Or just regular trigger action stuff

[onyx panther]

also true

but I was mostly asking for giving players a hangover XD

[lucid iron]

I ask this mainly because trinket tinker has a dedicated "do ability at a delay system"

[onyx panther]

it's like a back of my mind mod idea that I might go and make sometime

assuming no one else gets to it frist lol

[lucid iron]

But yeah for regular traction use BETAS

[long jungle]

Hi everyone!

Do you guys know any mods that increase/decrease the strength of food buffs? (Not duration)

Is it possible to do it with CP?

e.g. +2 defense from food would be edited to become +5 defense instead

It's possible to create custom foods so I am hoping it's possible to edit existing food buffs

[crude rose]

Hello! I'm having a trouble with coding in my custom outdoor location. The existing map patch works, the warps are working as well (screen slowly fades into black just like it happens when changing maps in the game) but then immediately after there is this information in SMAPI log that the map couldn't be loaded or wasn't found. I'm pretty sure it's something obvious but i thoroughly checked the file names, content file etc. so i'm lost.

[lucid iron]

For most foods you can edit their Data/Objects entry

[brave fable]

could you share your whole log file thanks?

!log @crude rose

[ocean sail]

Important note: Your computer username may appear in the log. If your username is your full name, please be aware of this before uploading it.

Please share your SMAPI log file. To do so:

1. Open this page: smapi.io/log.
2. Follow the instructions at the top of the page to upload the log file. (Don't copy & paste from the console window!)
3. After uploading, it will show a green box with a URL to share. Post that URL here.

Please do it even if you don't see any errors. This has useful info like what mods and versions you have, what the mods are doing, etc. If the issue didn’t occur in your last session, please load the game to the point where the issue occurs, then upload the log.

To use this command, type !log.

[lucid iron]

There's a few foods that use custom buff

[long jungle]

Does Data/Objects include the buff effects such as attack and defense?

I am not on PC right now so I cannot persnally check. Sorry.

[brave fable]

for now though could you try changing your MapPath value to remove the .tmx extension?

[crude rose]

sure thing one sec

[brave fable]

as a rule of thumb, only FromFile uses file extensions

some minor exceptions for oddities like audio data

[crude rose]

Thank u! Changed it

ah the log parser site is down for me

what have u done..

[lucid iron]

@ivory plume sorry if u already know but smapi.io is not doing so hot

Certificate problem of some sort

[ivory plume]

Yeah, there was an issue with the certificate auto-renewal; working on it.

[brave fable]

someone always pings pathos when i'm giving the most unhelpful help

[crude rose]

Oh no i broke it

[brave fable]

this is targeted defamation

[whole prism]

Pathos can u recode Stardew in Rust?

For .01% performance gain

(this is a joke)

[lucid iron]

You have to make the rust clr thing work first

[whole prism]

I mean, they can just rewrite rust if they want

its not really that big of a job, just a coding language, what could go wrong?

[ivory plume]

Site should be back up now!

[whole prism]

with claude, we can get this done in 1 hour, with 27 thousand failed unit tests

[lucid iron]

sdv 2.0 will be powered by bevy

[whole prism]

whats bevy

(sorry im new)

[lucid iron]

Yay it works now ty

[brave fable]

ah i see you have the love of cooking installed. you qualify for the deluxe modding support package

does your location load as normal now that you've changed the MapPath value?

[crude rose]

Sadly no

[whole prism]

is Love of Cooking worth the install? : D

[brave fable]

no ❤️

[whole prism]

I also use all the cornucopias, like the new recipe one too

[whole prism]

YES, BUNNY COOKIES, EASTER

[crude rose]

lol comfortable way of saying "ive read this"

[brave fable]

sorry, I didn't notice the problem earlier - you've got a formatting error in your Data/Locations changes entry. could you upload your content file to https://json.smapi.io ? share the link here when it's ready 🍰

[near imp]

i think we might be able to live with a little mystery in that department

[brave fable]

it'll be easier for me to fix it and send it back than describing how on mobile hahah

[whole prism]

I was very comfortable reading this

[crude rose]

https://smapi.io/json/none/423bd012808b41c1b80c9823d5f9ba00

[brave fable]

this should be good, ignoring the parser complaints about the AddWarps format:
https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/25dfa85199ea4f95a3959cc59fd3f57a#code.87
you were prematurely closing your Data/Locations change, so the CreateOnLoad part was being added as a separate invalid entry.
you were also referencing the location name in two different ways, both with and without the {{ModId}} prefix, so i've made that consistent

not sure why the log parser doesn't like the AddWarps format, probably just quirky regex

send an update here if it works or doesn't

[crude rose]

Thank you so much! After checking everything so many times i started to question my sanity

will send an update

It works!!! Thank u so so much for the help

[brave fable]

no problem! got there in the end hahah

[long jungle]

Thanks chu!(e) !

Is there currently any way to modify vanilla trinkets or create any new trinkets without using C#?

[near imp]

Trinket Tinker

made by our very best chu in fact

[long jungle]

Found it! Thanks.

It can make new trinkets.

But I believe it cannot modify vanilla trinkets though?

[lucid iron]

Indeed it's not for modifying vanilla trinkets

[torpid sparrow]

best chu implies multiple chus

[long jungle]

Thanks for clarifying that.

[lucid iron]

I suppose if you really want you can override a vanilla trinket

[near imp]

maybe they have an evil twin somewhere out in the world, causing chaos

[lucid iron]

But it's specifically not possible to make the froge in trinket tinker

The other ones u can more or less do

[near imp]

frog cursed?

[long jungle]

I'm only interested in changing the trinkets that deal damage

[uncut viper]

I like to think that I would come second place in a chu competition

[long jungle]

I need to somehow increase the damage dealt

[lucid iron]

The lore is that there were 108 chus and i won

[hard fern]

hunger chu

[torpid sparrow]

no way

chu battle royale

[long jungle]

Arrow and Frost Trinket. The damage is so low that they deal negligible damage to modded buffed monsters

[lucid iron]

For compat reasons what I'd do is just make a better version of those

And then let ppl trade their vanilla trinkets in

[long jungle]

I was thinking that if I cannot override them. I can make better versions and then make it somehow drop from monsters

[near imp]

does content patcher make trinkets? i guess we wouldnt have Trinket Tinker if it did?

[lucid iron]

Projectile and stun are both implemented

[long jungle]

OH! That also works. Nice idea! That can work with a shop UI, right?

Omg thank you for the idea. Will take some work, but it would at least be possible.

How about the levels and "random stats and prefixes" of vanilla trinkets?

Can that somehow be imitated or just fixed stats?

[lucid iron]

Sort of

1. You can add new trinkets with just content patcher but they must be one of the existing effects. Some of them are hardcoded against their item id (parrot) so it's actually impossible to make an alternate one.
2. Trinket tinker implements a specific flavor of trinket that supports custom companions + effects, this is done via a new custom asset

[uncut viper]

Yes*

*As long as you want your trinket to behave exactly the same as a vanilla trinket

[lucid iron]

I think there's a few mods that make their own custom trinket effects out there

It's the same code path except they impl the trinket effect in their C#

[near imp]

No.1 means that while one could theoretically use the parrot effect, since its hardcoded to the parrot egg ID it means parrot effect is not able to have an alternative version (with CP) ?

[long jungle]

Also in my current game, I have literal multiple chests of unused trinkets.

I am too much of a hoarder and I cannot trash them but also cannot find the time to haul them all to the ADV guild to sell them.

I want to find or make a mod that can make selling trinkets easier...

[lucid iron]

Yeah it's effect is the base effect but "do stuff if id is parrotegg"

Basilisk claw has similar issues

[near imp]

cursed

[lucid iron]

And golden spur

[tiny zealot]

secret notes are in the same sort of boat. you can do new ones with content patcher, but it's sort of terrible for several interrelated reasons, so i made a framework to bypass those problems

[lucid iron]

But i think u can make like a fairy whistle trinket item or something

And make it do the vanilla fairy trinket things

Still can't tweak any numbers tho

[near imp]

hmm, sort of tangentially related, you wouldnt happen to know the ID or whatnot for the screech the vanilla parrot trinket makes occasionally? asking for me

the audio that is

[lucid iron]

You can probably do that just by adding the sell item tag to Pierre's

I dunno off hand but u can debug logsound iirc

[uncut viper]

I think it's literally called batScreech

[near imp]

great tip! idk why i didnt think of that

i replaced the texture with an edited Bourke's parakeet already, but the screech is uh.. quite something on the vanilla parrot

[lucid iron]

The unfortunate thing is that u would also mute all the actual parrots i think

[near imp]

well screw them

[uncut viper]

Chu I thought you had another mod for specific sound replacements

Wasn't the parrot sound one of them

[lucid iron]

I forgot if i ever added

Yar i never did for some reason

[near imp]

im not sure i would even care if it replaces the screech for all bats or something too (like indicated if its called batscreech), the parrot sounds are pretty jarring and reminds me of bad old times when i had to live with one against my will

[lucid iron]

I guess I could do it real quick tho

[uncut viper]

(I think I was misremembering the screech they made and thought it was pitch shifted bat screech so probably ignore my batscreech comment)

[lucid iron]

ye i just checked its parrot_squawk

i think a long time ago i promised rokugin i would and then just, never did...

so ill do it rn

[near imp]

in your defense Button it sounds exactly like something the game might do for audio. just like pitch it up or down and use it for 5 different things

[lucid iron]

some days i wonder if i should actually do dynamic patching somehow

[tiny zealot]

thinking about secret of evermore (my beloved) which used the same sound effect for 1. your dog sniffing for hidden stuff and 2. flying enemies flapping their wings

[hard fern]

there's only two directions this could possibly go

[near imp]

going back a lil while, wasnt space for games themselves quite limited? in that way it makes sense that they would reuse assets more, perhaps? i just remember reading that they bloated the games difficulty substantially because the storage space for the game wasnt much so gameplay needed to be "~artificially" lengthened

hence why some old games are so hardcore in difficulty

[tiny zealot]

yeah on old consoles you had to scrimp and save. you were constantly hitting limitations in like every possible area

[near imp]

or trying to fit on a floppy disk

[lucid iron]

here u go pls try parrot_squawk.ParrotEgg

[near imp]

I target parrot_squawk.ParrotEgg with content patcher, ye? and cueswap is enabling that _ParrotEgg distinction so the rest of the parrots are left intact? (im a bit slow so just wanna make sure )

[lucid iron]

yep

[near imp]

time to test didnt have the right replacement sound at hand so its gonna snort like a horse for the test

hmm. ya boi silent for now odds are i didnt do it quite right. i used a different sound replacement mod that ive already been using as a template, but never know what i might manage to mess up

[lucid iron]

try this debug build

itll say if it replaced sound or no

[near imp]

AAAYY!

snorts like a horse, but is real cute

[lucid iron]

lmk when u wanna release mod on nexus ill update then

[near imp]

... release ..mod? like, to the public? and here i was just planning to hoard them all

welp, i should sleep on it i think. gotten pretty late, 03:37 tysvm for the mod update you spoil us

[calm nebula]

My favorite super Mario fun fact is that the clouds are pallette swaps of the bushes

(This is one of two facts I know)

The other is that rendering player score is absurdly expensive

[tame burrow]

@brittle pasture heyo! I made this mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/43539?tab=description that adds an optional Aviary for some owls. The owls are coded as barn animals due to 32x32 coop door behavior being weird. Is there a way I can add compat with Chicken Feed?

[opaque cobalt]

Apologies for coming back with the same issue, but what are some common causes for internal asset key to fail? using

assets/{{TargetPathOnly}}/{{TargetWithoutPath}}.png
and it is giving issues this time around. I used it in Penny Seasonal Outfits Mk II without issue, but am having trouble with this mod. Same file structure, just many less files.

[urban patrol]

did you patch parse it

[lucid iron]

@ivory plume i am fix merge conflict for this PR rn https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/pull/1172 since i am touch it anyways:

1. do you actually want the prune tokens change in this PR? that was the thing which tossed out any dynamic tokens that can never be active due to later tokens that are immutably applied
2. one of the things i did bc i slacc is to only allow DT includes of the same name one time in one mod, to avoid doing circle checking, do u want me to go and do the circle checking properly?

[ivory plume]

(I haven't forgotten about that PR! I'm just saving it for the upcoming Content Patcher 2.10.0 update.)

1. I'd prefer each PR to be as simple as possible; so the ideal would be one PR which just adds dynamic token includes, followed by a separate PR which adds token pruning.
2. I think that restriction is fine for now, since it keeps the initial implementation simpler. We can add loop handling in a later PR (or even later version).

[lucid iron]

yea sounds good, i kinda did the prune thing on a whim and didn't actually profile the potential gains

[median gull]

so ive been working on my recolor mod and for the most part its working! except the farmer won't recolor, i have it in the json file to edit image but it just doesn't? and some of the fonts still have the yellow shadow, idk if i missed it when recoloring the assets but i can't find where its at? does anyone know how to fix these, id appreciate it so much!

[lucid iron]

1. for fonts the color is hardcoded, you should checkout font smasher
2. send json for your farmer patches maybe

[opaque cobalt]

Yes I had, but oddly, both the one that works and one that doesn't returned the same results

hmmm why wouldn't CP tokens be ready?

[mellow laurel]

"Characters/Farmer/farmer_girl_base"

[opaque cobalt]

That is a great question for someone that knows what they're doing. I just fumble blindly, ask questions here, and base off of how other mods did what I needed hoping it works.

[brittle pasture]

Hi! just do something like this and the custom building will automatically use feed instead of hay

https://github.com/zombifier/My_Stardew_Mods/blob/master/ChickenFeedCode/[CP]ChickenFeed/Data/buildings.json#L194

[median gull]

i tried that and it didnt work so i pulled them out of the folder too try that and still nothing :/

[brittle pasture]

(obviously change {{modid}} to my mod's id as well as the hasmod line)

[median gull]

what do you mean?

[lucid iron]

you might have another mod which edits e.g. Characters/farmer_base later than you

we won't be able to know until we look at the log

[median gull]

right now i have all other mods disabled besides the necessary ones for the recolor to work, but maybe i'm just confused what you mean. 😭

[lucid iron]

i believe you, but we are trying to eliminate the possibilities here and could use more info

[lucid iron]

radium is prob right about this tho, since u have girl farmer

[royal stump]

I'm not sure if patch parse can actually parse target-related tokens correctly, since the command doesn't have a target to work with. Could you share the content file(s) for Kent's appearance entry and sprite load?

[lucid iron]

so it looks like none of your farmer patches actually took effect

[median gull]

so what do i do to make them work? lol

[lucid iron]

you may have to send your entire content.json

so that we can find out why they no work

(side note i wonder if you actually want something like nightshade https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/23742 which would adjust colors universally)

[royal stump]

It looks like your loads are correct, but you need to put the full asset target in those Sprite/Portrait fields, not just the final name:

"Sprite": "Characters/Kent_Class_A_Green",
"Portrait": "Portraits/Kent_Class_A_Green",```
(`TextureName` apparently does use that format, but those fields don't)

[median gull]

wait i did not know that was a mod... did i just do all this when there could've been an easier way 😭

[lucid iron]

well doing it meant you came here and found out nightshade exists

[median gull]

all my assets are just -80 saturation, -80 shadow, -25 vibrance but maybe ill try that and see if its what im looking for lol

[opaque cobalt]

Thank you. That was the issue. Can't believe I missed that, must have been 1 of 3 things I didn't do a closer look at

[hoary flame]

font settings (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/12467) is great if you just want to change the text shadow

[tame burrow]

Oh that's turbo ez pz, thanks!!

[median gull]

okay so that ended up not being what im looking for, it can lower the saturation but not the shadows or vibrance. do you want me to send my json here? its large and probably not how yall do it lol

[lucid iron]

use the smapi.io/json website

[median gull]

i ran it through that, you want me to send it here?

[lucid iron]

yea the point is to share

[median gull]

oki there it is, i did try running it after updating it and it still didnt work :b

and i know monsters arent done yet lol i was just working on those

[lucid iron]

https://smapi.io/json/none/0a96d5827b8b4afea730ea2937d9c42f

you can share big jsons like this via link

[median gull]

oh i did not know that oops

[lucid iron]

anyways i think the issue is prob
you put
Characters/farmer_base
they should be
Characters/Farmer/farmer_base

check your unpacked for that

[median gull]

so should i throw them back into a folder

[lucid iron]

no that doesn't really matter

to be specific i mean the "Target" field here

[median gull]

okay let me try that

yippe, that worked! tysm for the help :3

[woeful lintel]

I think you can cheat by using FF's layers: a FF Furniture will only draw its base layer when placed in a slot, so you can have the base layer be what will appear in the train toy, and have the rest of the dinos' sprites in a second layer. The only drawback is that there's no way to differentiate between a table and a toy train: only the base layer will be drawn when placed on a normal table as well.

[hard fern]

haii :3

how does smapi install itself when running the script?

does it do anything special like replace files

[royal stump]

SMAPI installs itself in Stardew's main folder + subfolders, but installing it won't replace/edit any of Stardew's files, or most mods
e.g. you can use Steam's "verify files" button to reset Stardew without breaking SMAPI

(reinstalling SMAPI will reinstall the error handler & save backup mods that come with it, but that's all)

[brittle pasture]

hey, I saw the update! I just wanna let you know you should be using "(O)selph.CoopFeed.ChickenFeed" instead of"(O){{ModId}}.ChickenFeed" (which turns into your mod ID lol). thanks!

[tame burrow]

WOOPS that's what i get for modding after work ty for catching that

very unstealthily uploaded a hotfix lol

[hard fern]

🤔 another weird question from me... uh how do i make a token that randomizes itself every day?

for schedules, and stuff, i want the schedule to change randomly, but only based on a token being either A or B

[sinful grove]

You could set the token to generate when the DayStarted or DayEnding events are triggered. Use DayEnding if you want it to generate before the new day has been set up. For reference: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Modder_Guide/APIs/Events#GameLoop.DayStarted

[hard fern]

ah that's C# Stuff... i was looking for something doable in CP

[brittle pasture]

there's a Random token, and tokens already reload every day unless specified otherwise

[hard fern]

🤔 how would i use that in a dynamic token though?

[brittle pasture]

just assign it a value?

[hard fern]

im confused

[brittle pasture]

like tokens are tokens

have a token A being random between 1, 2 and 3, and change your schedule based on whether A is 1, 2 or 3

[hard fern]

i think im getting stuck on the random part

[brittle pasture]

there's a token named Random, and it will transform into one of N values

dynamic tokens are just tokens you define and give a special name to

[hard fern]

😭 im sorry i still dont understand any of this

[brittle pasture]

do you have a working dynamic token

how much have you read this page in general: https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/develop/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/tokens.md#randomization

[hard fern]

yeah, just for npc names and stuff to reduce having to type out everything all the time

ive read the whole tokens section, just i don't really understand any of it sorry

[brittle pasture]

then you can do (in bed rn this is the best I'll do)
Name: ScheduleChoice
Value: {{Random: red, blue, green}}

then in your edits you can use
When: { ScheduleChoice: blue }

[hard fern]

as usual i was overcomplicating it in my head

[main sky]

is there a tutorial of how to IL edit with Harmony and ILGenerator?

[brittle pasture]

there's this: https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/Tutorial:_Harmony_Patching#Transpilers

or if you need a guide on setting up Harmony in general follow the links at the top

[main sky]

ah thx

[hard fern]

wondered why my mod wasn't loading... there was an extra : in my Changes

[void aspen]

is it possible to resize the map without messing up the coords?

when I does that then the top left corner becomes 11, 11 instead of 1, 1

I kinda don't wanna do that cuz it means Id had to edit data at very least on three maps

[gentle rose]

not up or to the left, no

[near imp]

while a bit annoying, its a lot easier now than it was before to edit only small parts of other maps, like adjusting the warp coordinates without even touching the tiles

[void aspen]

I swear I once seen maps with negative coords so that gave me hope

I decided to just edit warps atp

[void aspen]

Yeah Ill just edit warp coords on railroad and it should be fine

[near imp]

now that you mention it some that are right on the edge of a map use - coords (obligatory not an expert buut)

[vernal crest]

You can have warps on negative coordinates to set the warp just off the edge of the map but the bounds of the maps will still be anchored to the top left of the map, unfortunately, so resizing up and left will always change all the coordinates.

[near imp]

i might be thinking of the coordinate to go from the farm map up to the backwoods, that one uses a -1 im pretty sure

good point made by Aba though

resizing the map doesn't change the coordinates, just what tiles are under them

[gentle rose]

the problem is you’ll break every other mod’s edits to that map, and if anything is hardcoded that will break too

ohhh

And I though thats the same thing

how do I edit warp on railroad map to match my new bath house entrance location 💔

I think I did something like this two mods ago but I don't remember

[vernal crest]

Do you mean you're changing where in the bath house entrance map the player should arrive when coming from the railroad?

[void aspen]

Yeah I think so
Haven't changed anything on railroad

just the bh entrance map

from 5 9 to whatever is on the right bottom

14 19

for example

[vernal crest]

EditMap patch, MapTiles field, SetProperties field to change it from "Action": "Warp 5 9 BathHouse_Entry" to "Action": "Warp 14 19 BathHouse_Entry"

[void aspen]

in content json right

I see

[vernal crest]

Yes, you won't need a .tmx file involved at all for the edit

[void aspen]

oh nice

tysm

Here's the link to the documentation for what your patch should be like (the second example includes the SetProperties field): https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/52da2eca8f43646da8998ae77c2a427aadbf1b4f/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/action-editmap.md#edit-map-tiles

[void aspen]
