he absolutely is, arknir took great care to fit lucikiel's character and story into the world of stardew valley.

lucikiel's 10 heart event: ||lucikiel tries to leave the valley to run from his feelings, this involves breaking his contract with clint||

[spice turret]

AWW

[fading shell]

by that time, lucikiel and clint are each other's best friend

[spice turret]

awwwwwww

thats horribl

never getting that mod

[fading shell]

but you convince him to stay! XD

[spice turret]

oh

nevermind

BAHAH

[muted pagoda]

his intro event is beyond hilarious heh

hmm, that reminds me, I do need to find a decent farmhouse replacement, not really feeling SeasonalGarden2

[solar forge]

who's lucikiel

a very fun bachelor who finally stole me away from sebastian, who i used to marry every game

[mental merlin]

Hi, after completing the boiler room community bundle (unlocking minecarts), i went to sleep and after cutscene of junimos, game crashes.

here is my smapi log:

https://smapi.io/log/0e28f8c02ee54f2bbad686fb7287e76f

ive updated all my mods. no idea why its still crashing.

sidenote, whenever i enter deep woods, i cant get out. I can only do so by using the farm warps.

i do have all of the the deep woods mod in my game dont know if this contributes to the issue or not. https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2571

Your help is very much appreciated!

[muted pagoda]

leaving deepwoods by totem is generally intended, if you go more than a few rooms

[mental merlin]

i meant to say secret wood, sorry an error on my part

seems like there is no warp for the entry & exit point for secret woods, am i the only one?

[dire fractal]

hey guys, does adopt n skin still work on 1.5?

[muted pagoda]

not seeing a crash in that log, theres a rather big complaint about npc pathing thats probably a problem but I'm not sure that'd cause a fullstop

there's also a warp to the farm direct above that first hardwood stump, atleast in sve

not sure why you have a fence there on the right

[south cedar]

there's an unofficial update somewhere! I'm on the 1.2 version of it and it works, but it's at 1.6 now

[dire fractal]

where is the unofficial update? i need em for elle's new barn mod :<

[south cedar]

found it http://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/unofficial-mod-updates.2096/post-26963

[dire fractal]

ohh bless you you wonderful person!

[south cedar]

no worries! I love that mod

[dire fractal]

same here! i love elle animals skin so much <3333

[outer turret]

In my head canon, and if I ever get my A into G an actually write it (with Arkiel's permission ofc), I want Clint to finally get the courage to ask Emily out. She informs him that she likes him, but only as a friend. At first he's distraught, but quickly realises that he's not broken hearted in the way that he thought he woudl be.... because he's actually developing feelings for Lucikiel. Lucikiel, meanwhile, thinks Clint is finally hooking up with Emily and realizes that this in fact makes him feel a bit of unexpected jealousy and pain.

[spice turret]

my zoom class is 3 hours

about to cry

i just wanna sleep and play starew

and download mods

[outer turret]

mood

[fading shell]

hmm. having seen lucikiel's 10 heart event, which would happen no matter who lucikiel has feelings for, i'm not sure clint would be the person to get the good ending. there indeed is a good ending and a bad ending to it.

[late nebula]

Yeah Imma have to put SDV on hold for a bit. I'm taking 6 classes and accepted a part time substitute teaching job too.

[hushed mica]

For whoever has automate what’s your layout look like, I want a workbench from robins. But I don’t know how to lay it out with automate without it looking ugly.

[fading shell]

they'd be starcrossed lovers, rather than finally hooking up

[late nebula]

I just got my mods where I want them tho so I want to try and do like.. A day a week.

[outer turret]

i haen't seen it cos im not cheating on my Jasper. Lol

but I could force play it 🙂

[worthy prawn]

heyy guys what was the name of that clock mod that made grandfather clock look so beautiful

or something like that

i found the obsielk mod even tho i cant spell that word

[outer turret]

loaded up my 1.4 game. "You can update 84 mods"

I'm only loaeding it to play Lucikiel's 10 heart event

[worthy prawn]

rip

[fading shell]

fair enough. spoiler if interested: ||lucikiel realises he'll outlive the human he's fallen for, and in general can't handle feeling positive things yet. so he goes to yoba to get his heart and feelings sealed and to leave the valley. the farmer tracks him down into the forest, and tries to convince lucikiel to stay. lucikiel tries very very hard to get the farmer to leave, and basically breaks up with the farmer several times throughout the scene. i reckon clint wouldn't be able to withstand so many effective break ups >.>||

[fading shell]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1771

[worthy prawn]

noo unfortunately it aint this one

i was literally looking at this mod 2 mins ago haha

i saw it here yesterday

it was a beautiful clock statue with the clock facing towards the sky

[fading shell]

gotta say, i prefer this one though: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/656

[worthy prawn]

has that bug been fixed in Love of cooking that kept making the menu open and close again and again?

there was a update for it, wonder if anyone tested it

[outer turret]

I just watched it (via debug ebi)! It felt a little weird because my farmer (Freya) had never met Lucikiel before but the scene is beautiful! Very nicely done.

@stable anchor your events really are remarkable

[outer turret]

why is it a xnb mod? I want it!

[neat plaza]

does love of cooking bypass ||this "quest" for 100% completion||?

[outer turret]

I want to know if I am required to cook every recipe AND catch every fish. Modded or not. Because I have a lot of both. Not as many as I did (thank Yoba) but still, a LOT.

apparently custom NPCs affect it too

[neat plaza]

effect what

[fading shell]

i know modded fish effects the master angler achievement, and that's the fishing requirement for pt >.>

[outer turret]

damnit. I'm one fish off catching all vanilla fish

but I've got a ton of MNF to go.

spose I could sell them all and temporarily uninstall it.

[fading shell]

i missed a ridgeside spring fish, now i have to wait a year >.>

[outer turret]

im missing one of the Lunna ones

but I could always temporarily uninstall her

[neat plaza]

anyone know any mods that can force the game into thinking something has been achieved? like all fish caught etc

[outer turret]

probably CJB Cheats?

(dangit I missed the vampire squid so I have to wait for winter at least)

time to make a list of all the MNF I need

[fading shell]

oh well, i tend to abandon saves by summer year 2 at the latest, so ridgeside spring fish shouldn't be too much trouble. (also, i really do need to slow down to get to year 3 content, let alone grandpa's evaluation XD )

[outer turret]

(they should make a checklist)

[neat plaza]

i don't think so sadly

[outer turret]

you could maybe console command it

[neat plaza]

whats the wiki page for that

[outer turret]

maybe debug modding ?

[neat plaza]

found it https://stardewcommunitywiki.com/Modding:Debug_commands

[mental merlin]

okay thanks, i tried taking out some mods that are not working in 1.5, its not crashing anymore, thanks for having a look tho, appreciate it 🥰

[muted pagoda]

well, the fence bit I see is in the version with ifr, hadnt played with ifr in a while, the woods entrance looks a bit different with grampas farm

[mental merlin]

oh really? i havent played w the grandpa's farm, too small for me xD

[muted pagoda]

yeah, the ifr version also does not have that extra warp I had indicated, but there should be a warp on the right tile under that fence though

[mental merlin]

right? im not sure if its due to the deep woods mod or sve, i think ill let both of em know abt this issue

[muted pagoda]

its not either, as I've played with both and neither would cause that

did you install anything over deepwoods files, like a 'patch' for it?

[mental merlin]

yes i did but i hv no idea where to put the wood.xnb file. can you maybe guide me on how to properly install it?

[muted pagoda]

theres a patch in the old files of deepwoods to add compatibility to ifr, but this is for the old ifr, its not needed now and trying to install it very well could break your woods map

[unreal stratus]

Did you see my sneak peek @brisk timber

[mental merlin]

huh then i didnt do anything to the file then, i did copied the xnb into the deepwoods mod file but i didnt overite it, it should be fine right?, ill prolly just delete it

[muted pagoda]

I wouldnt think it would matter but you definately dont need/want it

[muted pagoda]

sad can.

[mental merlin]

okay got it, thanks for your help, its probably some other mod interfering with the deep woods, i have too many mods and too lazy to figure it out, its just a minor anoyyance. thank again!

i love naver

[coarse vigil]

so i saw that someone had a wizard texture replacer that is howl from howl's moving castle, but it seems to only be on naver and i think i cant make an account there cause country?

is there any way to get that texture cause goddamn i like that pretty man

are we allowed to ask people who have access to naver to download a mod and send it to us?

[spice turret]

you can use blognaver

it might be on there

[winged comet]

Hello! Does installing mods in SDV disable Steam achievements?

[coarse vigil]

i barely understand what naver is? I found the link to it from the nexus page that has the castle retexture but i got some sort of notification in korean

[muted pagoda]

only if you dont run it thru steam (via the launch options smapi tells you how to write)

[spice turret]

naver is a blog

like a korean blog

lemme see if i can help u find it

[coarse vigil]

pls

the stuff i cant download is https://cafe.naver.com/starvall/228768 and https://cafe.naver.com/starvall/228252

[muted pagoda]

if you dont read korean naver wont help you all that much, and other than the occasional deeplink you find, it's not generally possible to download froom without having a real korean phone#

[coarse vigil]

yeah, im wondering if anyone here CAN download from there and like, send me those files

[spice turret]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6594?tab=files

is it this

cause i cant sign up to naver either RIP

its really difficult

[coarse vigil]

check the description, the actual character replacer is only on naver for whatever dumb reason

[spice turret]

someone said they were able to go on naver on their phone without signing up

[coarse vigil]

i only learned about this site like yesterday and already i resent it

[spice turret]

maybe try that?

if ur able to u can just send the download to urself

[coarse vigil]

it is too late at night for me to try to troubleshoot like that

[spice turret]

aww okay

[azure seal]

I used CJB Item Spawner to spawn Tea Sapling. When I plant them, UI Info Suite said I planted Copper Ore???
It doesn't happen if I craft Tea Sapling myself though.

[spice turret]

idk how to help im sorry :(

maybe the mod itself is broken?

maybe check on nexus if anyone is having the same issue

[livid magnet]

Anyone using The Fishing Suite, and catching purely trash up at the lake near robins?

[late nebula]

@azure seal will you remind me of the name of the mod that changes the seed bag colors like that?

[azure seal]

I think it's Colored Seeds.

[muted pagoda]

also, is that on a new save?

may also want to see if it is actually copper ore that grows, that day timer doesnt look right

[azure seal]

Yes. It's a new save. I accidentally delete all my saves when the game update to 1.5... 😩

[muted pagoda]

and that sapling I assume isnt vanilla? I'm more than a little blurred on where the line of modded stuff is :p hehe

[azure seal]

It's vanilla

[shy orbit]

tea sapling is seeds now?

[neat plaza]

do you have a copper ore mod installed and i don't think tea is usually seeds

[azure seal]

I think I don't have any ore mods. And it's not a seed, it's a normal Tea Sapling. Just Colored Seeds mod change its skin to appear like that.

Hmm. I think I'll create another save and timeskip to see what will happen when they grow...

[muted pagoda]

if you dont have something like fantasycrops you definately have some corruption going around

!log try dumping a log to see what's going on

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[azure seal]

I don't have any crop mods too.

[muted pagoda]

well, then you have an outdated mod that's rewriting part of the crops xnb, or an actual xnb mod that broke something

!reset try this first

[native dragon]

See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! (This doesn't affect your save files.) You may also want to check this list of XNB > Content Patcher conversions (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher) to see if there are already replacements for any XNB mods you may have been using :)

[muted pagoda]

its also possible you're using an old ui info suite that's getting it wrong, I suppose

[azure seal]

I didn't install XNB mod. and UI info i download from the unofficial one in stardewvalley forum...

it's also no errors in the log...

[muted pagoda]

not looking for errors, looking for problematic mods/outdated mods that are known to cause problems

[azure seal]

here https://smapi.io/log/dae187d47f0d49fc8ca011dac1d066ee

Oh. The errors on CP Animation and GreenhouseGatherer, I just install them today.
But this Tea Sapling error happened since yesterday.

[muted pagoda]

yeah, I'm not seeing anything particular standout in that log, hmm

I am somewhat curious what you are actually planting there, finally got my game to finish loading and tea saplings..look like little trees (with Colored seeds)

also oddly.. planting them here does not give me any tooltip at all like regular crops does

I just get the hand to shake trees, heh

wait no, now I got the same thing you did

that's.. a bizzare bug

if you plant the tree sapling in a place that's clear in the 8 squares around it, you get the expected tree sapling with no tooltip, planting it 'next' to any crop, gives you that weird copper ore thing

[azure seal]

oh...

[muted pagoda]

actually, it appears to be specific to having actual regular crops nearby

but yeah, its not something specific broken to your game, but a bug of some kind

heh and lookup anything calls the weird nontree a 'weeds tree'

I get the feeling its a bug in BetterFruitTrees not knowing how to handle the new sapling

which BFT is an unoffical limpalong update, so that's not super suprising

[azure seal]

I see. I'll try to remove it then.

[muted pagoda]

so..if you really want to plant those, you can probably remove BFT and it will probably work more vanilla like

[azure seal]

OK

Thank you for your help. ❤️

[muted pagoda]

it looks like they bug out if you try planting them anywhere a vanilla'ish tree would fail to plant being too close to other things, with the exception of themselves

cause i unpacked and put the png files where they needed to go

i dont have any xnb files

so when i unpack hairstyles.xnb

and it becomes a png file

in my contents unpacked folder

do i leave it in there and will it appear in my game

or do i move it back to its og folder

[royal arrow]

Nope. That is a raw file and would need a manifest.json and content.json for SMAPI to load it as a CP mod

[spice turret]

ohhh okay

i get it now

Hello to all

Can someone tell me, can I edit a config file while in-game?

[rain lava]

you technically can but it won't show unless you relunch the game

but you can get this mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5098
and changing config options will require only going to the main screen instead of escaping whole game

[native grail]

Oh, thank you! I have many mods so launching the game takes a full 4-5 minutes and it's a hassle

[wide arch]

Some configs will not show in that one, as a heads up

yeah, that mod is opt-in

Is it by the modder or can the user add more configs?

you might be able to use debug commands in the smapi console tho

Oh another question, can you spawn in the golden walnuts?

do i need to downdload xnbcli to make the manifest and content json files?

do u have a link for merging furniture too?

cause cf broken

i mean outdated

[royal arrow]

I do not :c
No you right, CF is broken-y

[spice turret]

oooo okok

[royal arrow]

You'd have to unpack whatever the furniture file is, and then they'd be replacers

[spice turret]

ohhhh

[royal arrow]

So you can't have additional furniture atm

[spice turret]

alright!

thats fine

so do i just put the png files in my actual game files?

[royal arrow]

No friend, that would also be a CP content pack

[spice turret]

o

okok

I'm now using both UI Info Suite and Billboard Anywhere

OH Seasonal Display is just my silly mistake for misreading

right, now to see if a modded in bellchee works for the luau.

Aaaand, the suspension bridge still isn't recoloured by either Flower Valley or Earthly Recolour

[royal arrow]

Oki so maybe the animated version of that mod has a bug? Or it could be CP-A itself, idk

[royal arrow]

Are you still getting the warning regarding the Earthy recolor?

[royal arrow]

I got nothing for this

[wind plover]

yis

[royal arrow]

Yis to the Earthy recolor warning o: ?

[wind plover]

Yes, yes to the Earthly Recolour 😅 sorry

[royal arrow]

Maybe the file is straight up missing you could try checking the files within nexus, to determine if the mod author forgot to package it, or if it's disappearing in a weird corruption

There's a little Preview Files thing

[wind plover]

This is kinda weird though because the animated background thingymabobby appears fine on the menu

[royal arrow]

You could check the mod description / comments to see if other folks have mentioned this o:

[wind plover]

Nooo unfortunately, I checked the file path and the image is there.

[final inlet]

okay disregard my previous question uh. stardew went full bluescreen on me?

it didnt crash, the game screen is just all blue

[fading shell]

yes, iridium quality bellchee got the best result for the luau! modded in items work! can't believe it took me this long to try it XD

[royal arrow]

Oh you're a Mac person. Is the capitalization correct? Like, does the filename have the same capitalization as what the warning message says it's looking for?

[wind plover]

Yup!

But the error says that it's assets/SuspensionBridge and not assets/TileSheets/SuspensionBridge

I just tweaked that part in the content json

Not sure if it'll help but Imma try

🙈

[royal arrow]

Ah well there ya go, folder path might have been incorrect in the content.json

[wind plover]

Yaaaay it worked!

But I'm still getting the game error in the island even though I didn't pick up a walnut

[split nacelle]

Hi all, is there a way for portraits in portraiture to stay or do they normally reset every day?

[wind plover]

But it could be because I enabled NoClip?

[royal arrow]

I do not know, but hiii! been a while

[royal arrow]

I'm not sure, NoClip usually doesn't lead to errors o:

[wind plover]

Hmmm

[royal arrow]

You could try temporarily removing all the mods and see if the issue still happens, and if it doesn't, begin the painstaking work of adding mods back little by little til you suss out the culprit

[wind plover]

... Maybe I'll do that tomorrow. 😂🙈

It's almost 11 here and if I start now I probably won't sleep until 2 or 3

[royal arrow]

Ah ok, good to get rest

[split nacelle]

I have to update around 100 mods bec of the 1.5 update

[royal arrow]

Pfff I'm hoping to reach those numbers. Last I checked I had 89 / 453

I'm sitting here like goood, wait til there's more before I transition to 1.5

[split nacelle]

Omg i dont even wanna try, im sure some of them arent eveb compatible anymore, i. working on a new mod profile to start over

[royal arrow]

I'm debating if I should dedicate a whole day to doing the updates, or if I want to do it little by little

Lol just boot up SMAPI for 1.5, then quit and get your log

That'll show you which are versus there is hope

[split nacelle]

right, but i kinda wanted to do the achievements i cant in my current game since i added too much stuff

[shell jackal]

Question for anyone that uses Wayback PT. What is the folder named 'base?' I get the other are for recolor mods or vanilla game, but not sure what that one is for.

[royal arrow]

Have you poked in there? You can open up the folder to see the files

Could also poke in the content.json and see where base is mentioned

[shell jackal]

Ah. I looked in there but wasnt sure what I was seeing

[brisk timber]

I'm surprised you haven't just started a separate 1.5 group to start updating at least

[royal arrow]

Steam updated me to 1.5 already, I have 1.4.5 in a separate safe folder. I just haven't bothered because a lot of those mods were updated more than once so I'd need to keep updating lol

I have procrastinator roots

[brisk timber]

Huh. Sounds like something a mod manager would be great at

[royal arrow]

No thank you, I like having total control

Plus files won't mysteriously disappear :p

It's also a simple drag and drop. I do believe it's multiple clicks with the mod manager

[brisk timber]

I'm wondering what that issue is with files vanishing

[royal arrow]

Ye idk why folks occasionally have Vortex randomly eat manifest.json files

[brisk timber]

I click an update button, confirm that I want to overwrite the previous version and then deploy. Works for me

[royal arrow]

And manual works for me~ hurray for options!

[brisk timber]

Yeah the manifest thing is strange. Configs do get wiped on updates because they're not part of the original package, but I may sit down and build a sort of workaround for that

But I sooo wish configs were just stored in a separate folder so I didnt have to

[wind plover]

Arghhh

[brisk timber]

Even if it was a launch option I had to set in smapi

[wind plover]

smapu sounds funny when you sound it out as a word

😂

[brisk timber]

It does lol. I almost left it like that

[wind plover]

Sorry my brain is fried trying to figure out my log

[brisk timber]

My fat fingers were not prepared for touchscreen keyboards

[royal arrow]

Pathos shared this:

How is SMAPI pronounced?
However you want! (But to hear the canonical pronunciation, paste /ˈsmæpɪ/ into https://itinerarium.github.io/phoneme-synthesis/.)

[wind plover]

Normal phone keyboards are fine but I can never type on tablets

Well I can, but not properly. I type like a 90 year old grandma using two fingers

[brisk timber]

Right? Who would have thought that a bigger keyboard would somehow be harder to type on

[royal arrow]

Well it's further away, no bueno

[brisk timber]

I would legit buy some bulky attachment for my phone that gave me back typing on a physical number pad

Used to be able to do that with my eyes closed

[wind plover]

I'd rather write the stuff out on my watch's screen than try typing it on an ipad

[wind plover]

muy no bueno

Reverting back to mods 😂🙈 - It's entirely normal for a modded save file not to load when all mods are removed right?

[royal arrow]

Depends on the mods

Did you have JA things? Idr

[wind plover]

Nope no JA things

[flat ice]

What do I need to do to repair the broken farm building in the Immersive Farm map?

[unreal stratus]

@brisk timber @royal arrow We aim to release tomorrow barring any issues. We might delay it to the weekend though

[brisk timber]

We'll love y'all either way

I'll just get Ysa to like 1.9999 hearts until then lol

A delay is good though cause I haven't made those cookies/eclairs/actually nothing just yet

[worthy prawn]

hey sweet people of stardew valley

anyone has any idea how long the new framework will take that will replace BFAV?

[royal arrow]

I'm just surprised at how quickly time passed O:
I still remember you and I discussing this like it was yesterday 😂

But ye definitely take your time, make sure you're happy with it

[native grail]

anyone knows why UI info is so buggy now?

[quick rivet]

helloo, I'm trying to install 'Coii's Hair Sets Pack' mod but it just wont work :( It doesnt show the hairs, just bald heads. Does anyone have this mod and can help?

[brisk timber]

what's wrong now? can't open the menu?

[unreal stratus]

Yess, time goes by fast ;_;

We want to deliver on the promises made 😁

[native grail]

can't open the menu, can't untick track on map

[brisk timber]

my menu broke recently, not totally sure why. may have been a smapi update or something

[native grail]

it's working passively but I can't interact with it

[brisk timber]

you can still go into the UI Info folder and edit the '<yourfarmername>_modData.xml' file to change settings

[royal arrow]

Has it been updated for 1.5? The 1.5 update came with lots of changes, including to hair

[royal arrow]

A couple people have mentioned this recently

[brisk timber]

yeah the xml is the only way I've been able to touch it lately

[sweet cove]

Coii's Hair Sets Pack hasn't been updated to 1.5, but I think that the CP version of that mod still works (but it loads the tilesheet instead of editing image)

[sand cloak]

https://smapi.io/log/6869018b6b52466d90bcbb31c208bd9f

May i get some help migrating mods please? This is for multiplayer

And a lot of things aren't loading =(

[warm mulch]

NPC adventures is one of those mod concepts I hope will get added to Vanilla in an update because it's much needed, as your spouse just sits around in your farmhouse doing nothing

[royal arrow]

Immersive Spouses gives them a little more to do

[brisk timber]

SVE comes with its own version of custom music and custom npc fixes

you can delete the standalone versions you have

[worthy prawn]

its out of date unfortunately

[royal arrow]

Idk if it's working in 1.5 though

[brisk timber]

@sand cloak you're also missing Expanded Preconditions, so JA fails to load and then a ton of other things fail on that

oof, couple more things

[royal arrow]

Leaving this ⬆️ for learnings

[brisk timber]

had no idea that was a thing

[sand cloak]

@sand cloak you're also missing Expanded Preconditions, so JA fails to load and then a ton of other things fail on that
@brisk timber

So I need to download expanded preconditions?

[royal arrow]

What, the quote o.o?

[sand cloak]

Sorry not familiar with how to reply on discord lol

My bad

[brisk timber]

download Expanded preconditions, download Event Repeater, download Quest Framework, remove the extra custom NPC and music

also custom furniture isn't updated so any furniture mods you have won't load, but that shouldn't be breaking your game

you'll have a few lingering issues in your log, but your game should load after that

[sand cloak]

Ok noted on this, thank you!!

[worthy prawn]

i wonder how much wait ;-;

[sand cloak]

So I should remove custom furniture for now?

[brisk timber]

smapi refuses to load it because it's so outdated, but you can just to be safe

otherwise it'll just skip CF and any furniture mods that depend on it

[brisk timber]

I don't think there's been an ETA posted anywhere. just that it's underway

[sand cloak]

Ohhh okay big help!

[worthy prawn]

hmm what about you?, using BFAV unofficial version for now?

[brisk timber]

nah, that's one mod I never really felt the need to get. especially on my nightmare run where it'll probably be year 2 before I get a coop and maybe like two chickens

[worthy prawn]

ohhh interesting im just interested in mythical animals haha

i am questioning whether i should get multiple spouses mod or not

[brisk timber]

@royal arrow did you see my potential excitement and then total disappointment last night? finally found a mod to pause the game when it loads AND one to autoload my last save so i could just start up smapi and walk away

buttttt Dynamic Night hates the autoloader and I'm not dropping dynamic night for anything

[royal arrow]

No I missed this

[brisk timber]

it was a rollercoaster for me

[royal arrow]

That is unfortunate, what a rollercoaster ye

[brisk timber]

still, pausing in bed isn't bad

I can at least walk away for half of the load

[livid magnet]

Dynamic night is working.

[brisk timber]

dynamic night works

it just doesn't work with the autoloader also installed

and the autoloader hasn't been updated in like two years, so I doubt it'll get a compatibility fix

[spiral notch]

I'm still over joyed I learned more about memory issues and can now watch and restart my game before it has a chance to crash.

[brisk timber]

how? just exiting every few days before it builds up?

[spiral notch]

Yeah. I'm using a...process...manager? I think it's called? So I can watch where my memory is at while I play.

[brisk timber]

what's your threshold for killing it?

[spiral notch]

I'm not sure I haven't fully tested it but when it gets over 3gb I know its getting close. I have to run further tests today

[brisk timber]

yeah 3gb sounds right

definitely danger zone territory

[spiral notch]

But....I think I found the culprits. I am running animated....everything. took out the animated seasonal portrait and by day three I was still around 2.8 where I was at 3 beforehand

So, might need to deanimate my fish. Not the biggest loss if it means I can keep adding other stuff

[brisk timber]

I'll keep that in mind. the only things I have animated right now are minerals and gems cause theyre pretty but I can live without that if it comes down to OOM

[ashen elbow]

i wonder if i could replace the tractor texture with a horse

[royal arrow]

Yes you could o.o

[brisk timber]

god I'd love a horse with a big plow attached to it

[oak crest]

or an oxen team

[royal arrow]

Although idk if the tilesheet is exactly the same lol

That would be the only limitation

[brisk timber]

yeah ox would be even better

[wary plaza]

Something like this? lol

[brisk timber]

yessss

[wary plaza]

SDV with the RTX enabled

😆

[ashen elbow]

welp if the tilesheet doesn't automatically work, i'll make it work

[oak crest]

that thing must be heavy if it requires 3 horses

[spiral notch]

Yeah that is one of the only ones I feel I have to have. I do like Animated Furniture though

[brisk timber]

that's the spirit

[wary plaza]

next thing you know is we end up with a tilesheet consisting of nothing but a horse & plow due to the size

[ashen elbow]

good news, YES IT WILL

[wary plaza]

Can you make a tractor sprite that looks like Morris?

make him eat the dirt, lol

[brisk timber]

I know SVE changes him up a bit, but I still want a full-on Morris redemption arc

[ashen elbow]

well im fairly sure there's already a mod that lets you ride morris as a horse?

[brisk timber]

like he leaves town after the CC but comes to you realizing he wants a simple life

and ends up being your farmhand/best friend and actually super nice

[fading shell]

joja route apparently has morris be a nice ||mayor||

[wary plaza]

or he uses his Joja experience to overhaul and help Pierre out or something like that

[brisk timber]

the vanilla one?

[fading shell]

sve

[ashen elbow]

sve im guessing

[brisk timber]

huh. I mean I'll probably never do that (I've never even done the joja run for the achievement) but good for him

[fading shell]

same

[wary plaza]

[ashen elbow]

i dont think ive ever done joja. i think i just keep forgetting

[spiral notch]

I admit I'll probably do the joja route once and only once for the achievement but I'll use cheats to do it.

[fading shell]

i just can't bring myself to get that last achievement. even with sve's changes bringing humanity to joja

[wary plaza]

I wish I learned before hand that I could just debug command the achievement instead of selling my soul with a throwaway save file just for the achievement

[stable anchor]

Thank you

[brisk timber]

you know, morris coming back to help actually might not be that hard to do if I was interested in doing NPC stuff

[stable anchor]

You're like my biggest role model

[spiral notch]

I'm not investing time into doing it lol

[brisk timber]

your spouse already has the farmhand functionality

[fading shell]

your mod made me actually feel bad for clint when i spoke to him after lucikiel's 10 heart. fantastic work

[brisk timber]

unless he just gets straight up deleted when he leaves town lol

[ashen elbow]

Aaaaa speaking of npcs i really have to get started on mine lol,, i got sidetracked with the new update

[outer turret]

@stable anchor I love how many chances you just have to say "okay, bye"

[stable anchor]

Lucikiel visits Clint two of three times a week if you marry him, so they still hang out together 😉

[stable anchor]

yessss

[fading shell]

even better!

[outer turret]

I also kinda want to see a version of that where Clint is the one that loves him. Lol. Would Clint fight for him? I wonder...

[last cargo]

Does anyone know if Multiple Spouses works with SVE?

[stable anchor]

I give you my permission lemur if you ever want to write

[outer turret]

Yes it does.

[fading shell]

it does

[last cargo]

Awesome thank you

[outer turret]

I know Arknir! It's just a matter of time. I dont have as much of it as I'd like.

[stable anchor]

same

im still working on a halloween mod

[ashen elbow]

my problem is having too much time lmao,, i get distracted with every little thing

[spiral notch]

Ugh....y'all are always talking about Lucikiel and I'm starting to consider downloading but I don't do anime characters! I know he isn't from one but like, the portrait style just don't fit lol

[stable anchor]

The default portrait of Luci is more fit to the SDV art style

[spiral notch]

I'll probably just cave and add him.....just to be like all the cool kids

[stable anchor]

tho he does have optional anime portraits

[fading shell]

join us, join the dark side XD

[spiral notch]

I still got like 6 mods need updating and here I am talking about what I want to add lol

[stable anchor]

that's a mood

[fading shell]

also part of the dark side XD

[stable anchor]

When I play sims, i focus more on finding mods than actually playing

[fading shell]

my way of pruning mods to address memory errors: add 3 remove 1

[ashen elbow]

I think the reason i don't add that many npc mods is because they're usually marrigable, and i feel bad because the only person i ever marry is seb

[spiral notch]

I'm battling memory issues and am around 400 mods....do I stop looking for more...no I don't.

[fading shell]

i was exactly like that. until lucikiel XD

[ashen elbow]

i think there was a time i added like 3 more bachelors to my game. immediately marries seb

[spiral notch]

Going to see what my definite limit is today or how long it takes to reach it....and then if the animated fishies have to go....well....more NPCs for me lol

[ashen elbow]

do i have a problem?? maybe haha

[stable anchor]

Although most custom npcs are marriageable, you don't need to marry them as they have good stories

[brisk timber]

I just found out I usually hover around 2.1gb. do I need more mods?

[fading shell]

yes

[pine fjord]

yes

[brisk timber]

I don't even know what to add at this point. I'm honestly happy with my list

[pine fjord]

how many mods are you at?

also yeah definitely don't add until you see something that catches your fancy AHAHAH love yourself

[brisk timber]

100 mods/252 content packs

[royal arrow]

This is a good thing! Lol hold onto that feeling

[ashen elbow]

only 178 MB of mods on my end

[brisk timber]

my mods folder is 671mb lol

[stable anchor]

Most npcs don't surpass 2mb unless they add maps or high-res portraits

[spiral notch]

I don't remember what mine is

[brisk timber]

mine is probably bloated from like 1000 AnS skins

[spiral notch]

........

Mine is 945mb

[pine fjord]

oh god my folder is gonna be like a gig wont it

[brisk timber]

nvm, AnS is still only 10mb

[pine fjord]

oh wow nvm 330mb

[brisk timber]

thank god animal pngs are like 5kb each

[pine fjord]

not so bad

[brisk timber]

i'm running windirstat to see who's bloating mine

[fading shell]

437. seems to be a mid-range amount here XD

[warm mulch]

Laughs in 63.1 MB mod folder

[brisk timber]

ah, SVE then a music pack, then seasonal buildings

[pine fjord]

I was about to say

I know SVE is the culprit of mine

[brisk timber]

I actually don't know if this music pack even plays

[pine fjord]

every time i update everything takes .01 second and then sve's downloading for 3 minutes LMAO

[brisk timber]

ahhh it's only for mermaid island and boarding house

[pine fjord]

I want more crops and recipes but they're impossible to play with unless you're the host o(-<

[shy orbit]

music is probably the only thing in stardew modding that uses larger amounts of space

there is no high quality textures

[fading shell]

i have all the music packs because the mods don't work without them, but i don't play stardew music. i mute it and play my own music. why must i have the music packs as well?

[ashen elbow]

SAMe

[brisk timber]

if you're already mid save you risk the JA shuffle anyway

[shy orbit]

music mods are also rough on memory usage

[ashen elbow]

i used to instal countless music packs, but then just mute it rip

[pine fjord]

Nah, we've started many new saves

and they still shuffle

We honestly laugh and love it

the only downside is me not being able to try out all my recipes

Unless I'm hosting

[fading shell]

ja shuffle can be fun! who doesn't want amethyst dust jelly or hazelnut latte wine?

[pine fjord]

ME AHAHA

[brisk timber]

I know most of you don't need more mods, but this one is just lovely

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4523

[pine fjord]

I guess the other downside too is if you're early game getting too much money in .03 seconds

but that depens on your playstyle

AW

[brisk timber]

my dad sent me a letter with a bunch of dad jokes the first day I had it installed

[pine fjord]

That seems so sweet !!

[fading shell]

i already have a junk mail mod, i don't need another XD

[pine fjord]

Also wait how in the world does slowmode work on this chat

sometimes there's none, sometimes i'm gated for 6 seconds

[ashen elbow]

dynamic

[royal arrow]

Hehe ye I used to use it for a while. It got overwhelming though so I gradually turned off more things until I finally just uninstalled it 😂

[brisk timber]

I assumed it's based on the overall number of messages, not you specifically

[stable anchor]

Do people still turn music off when they intentionally trigger events

[royal arrow]

And it's dynamic in every channel, even #governors-mansion o.o

[warm mulch]

I kinda do with my 63.1 MB mod folder (which based on my experience is below average)

[stable anchor]

As an unofficial eventsmith, i would like to know

[pine fjord]

I always turn off music 😔

[worthy prawn]

im really struggling not sure if i should get multiple spouses and unoffical BFAV update mod

[stable anchor]

My event mods are in danger

[pine fjord]

I wuldn't get BFAV, it's not properly working and it caused many crashes for me

[stable anchor]

[pine fjord]

though I play multiplayer too

[worthy prawn]

the unoffical update by kevin seems to work

in post section of BFAV

[pine fjord]

Oh fr? I'll go take a look!

[worthy prawn]

according to what people said atleast

[pine fjord]

Last unofficial I played with was Strobe's

[fading shell]

my music is always off, and i usually stumble on events. if i intentionally trigger an event, i've forgotten to turn stardew music back on, 'cos it's always off for me >.>

[worthy prawn]

ohh that one is broken

[ashen elbow]

the BFAV i use works great

[stable anchor]

oof eventsmiths have to carefully find songs to affect the mood of events

[royal arrow]

[native dragon]

See https://smapi.io/mods for a list of mods updated for the latest versions of SMAPI and Stardew Valley. :)

[spiral notch]

How can you turn music on and off during an event?

[royal arrow]

I have music on always, including for events

[ashen elbow]

i feel bad now because the first thing i do when starting a new save is lower the music slider all the way down

[worthy prawn]

please suggest me some good bfav animal mods

[stable anchor]

yay lenne

[spiral notch]

Or do you mean outside music?

[fading shell]

same

[stable anchor]

ingame music

[pine fjord]

I'm always on voicecall when playing hence the having music turned off
just distracts me big time

hmmmm

[stark flower]

stardew valley expended work with the new beach?

[stable anchor]

when i make my horror visual novel mod, it's going to be less scary without ingame music

[deep totem]

u mean the island?

[brisk timber]

Yeah SVE was compatible day 1 of 1.5

[royal arrow]

Although lately I've been having issues with random songs playing at the beginning of a save instead of the correct one
I've been told this was a TMXL bug that should have been fixed ages ago, but alas, it plagues me 😔
Hopefully switching to 1.5 will extra fix it

[stable anchor]

ima have to make notifications before people trigger it i guess

[outer turret]

If ppl play it without your music they're the ones missing out on the tull experience.

[worthy prawn]

SDV's soundtrack is top tier as far as relaxing game soundtracks go. It's up there with minecraft and Starbound

[stable anchor]

in the saloon

[royal arrow]

We don't recommend sharing mods this way and instead should link to them, because permissions are tricky

[stable anchor]

Yes jonqora taught me how to make several different forks in one event

It's basically a huge event with many different forks and turns

[stark flower]

the starting area( new farm (beach)) is working with stardew expended

[pine fjord]

Oh good to know, my bad !!

[stable anchor]

and you can restart at checkpoints

[deep totem]

is it technically a visual novel?

[stable anchor]

so if you get a bad end, you can return to an earlier save spot

[pine fjord]

All deleted, thank you ❤️

[stable anchor]

Yeah, the main characters are vincent and jas, and you make choices to achieve the good ending

[worthy prawn]

i am afraid, i may end up getting to many bfav mods

already 200 mods and game loads for 20 mins including save file

[pine fjord]

Never too many, midnight

[worthy prawn]

haha for my poor laptop its plenty

[brisk timber]

20 minutes? Oh no

[stable anchor]

I made a spooky portrait of one of the antagonists if anyone wants to see 👀

[worthy prawn]

yes game runs well surprisingly

[pine fjord]

always

[worthy prawn]

just the savefile loading time kinda bad

[brisk timber]

I mean as long as you have enough ram and your processor isn't 15 years old you're fine. Regular hard drive, I'm guessing?

[pine fjord]

I need an SSD just for stardew valley 😔

[stable anchor]

wumbus reimagined

[pine fjord]

i

[brisk timber]

They're getting cheaper and cheaper every day

[royal arrow]

Even with 453 mods my game takes ~5min to load, including the save I have a gaming laptop from 2016 though

[pine fjord]

i'll give it to you this was beyond my expectations

[stable anchor]

[worthy prawn]

its a very old laptop 3 gb ram no graphics card etc

[pine fjord]

nonsense why buy a cheaper one when i can buy an ffxiv one, pay an arm and a leg for something that just has an ff sticker on it

[worthy prawn]

im surprised i can play stardew valley the way i do

[pine fjord]

like a true gamer

[shy orbit]

i tested ssd vs. hd with stardew valley, it made only a small difference (~1min vs. 1min18s iirc)

[pine fjord]

Oh fr?

Well, tons of mods included?

[brisk timber]

From what I've noticed in the smapi console, the biggest load killers are music files, frameworks sorting themselves out (looking at you spacecore and pytk) and smapi sifting through a ton of JA mods

[shy orbit]

i suppose there isn't that much to load (or the ssd was just crappy)

[brisk timber]

Theres definitely a lower limit where it wont change much

[pine fjord]

Good to know!

[royal arrow]

Makes sense. For in between map loads though, I think that's where SVO / DSV may take the cake

[pine fjord]

Thank you ❤️

[brisk timber]

Yeah SVO is on the larger side so I'm not surprised

[royal arrow]

SVO / DSV forever though

[brisk timber]

Larger as far as SDV mods go lol

Its only like 30mb

[fading shell]

"sifting through a ton of ja mods" oh no. that's bad news for me >.>

[pine fjord]

Yeup big same

need more ja mods though

[ashen elbow]

hND should i go for it and download sve lol

[pine fjord]

yes

[royal arrow]

Most people would say yes Forsythia lol

[pine fjord]

I just like the world feeling bigger and more immersive

[brisk timber]

Good news is that the JA thing leaves room for improvement because even a tiny boost in loading those is multiplied for each one you have

[pine fjord]

which is why I burry myself in mods

[royal arrow]

I don't think I'll ever get SVE because I like my 453 mods and there's a good chance SVE will stomp on compatibility

[pine fjord]

OOF

for sure

[ashen elbow]

the reason i havent is because it lags my computer super hard lol, also for compatibility reasons

[brisk timber]

My only big SVE compat complaints are Goth Abby not loading and Sundrop conflicting

[fading shell]

so deleting ja mods that add a single item would help or not really?

[brisk timber]

Deleting one or two, probably not

[fading shell]

damn

[pine fjord]

Didn't sundrop have compat?

[brisk timber]

If you had a bunch of them, maybe. I don't actually know if it's going through the loading process of the mod and its content that takes time or actually loading the items though

[fading shell]

...could i remove parts of a ja mod and still have the remaining parts load in?

[brisk timber]

Like specific items?

[fading shell]

yes

[brisk timber]

You'd probably have to edit the content files

I dunno, my smapi and JA knowledge is pretty limited

[ashen elbow]

Ahhhh man do i really feel like trying to translate both korean and chinese?

[fading shell]

i'll give it a go on a test save, probably after this save XD

[pine fjord]

love yourself

[brisk timber]

Most of what I'm saying is based more on general file loading knowledge from my days as a developer

[fading shell]

sundrop dropped compatibility plans

[pine fjord]

Oh! I see

[ashen elbow]

If i do decide to translate it, i have a lot to do XD

[pine fjord]

good on them, less headache

just sucks not having sve compat heavily reduces playerbase

[brisk timber]

Maybe they'll be open to someone writing a patch. Sundrop could easily be adapted to the bus or train mods if they were cool with it

[pine fjord]

That's a real good point

[brisk timber]

I love those because they make everything compatible

[pine fjord]

that reminds me i really ought to get aquarium

[fading shell]

yeah, someone from the dsvo team decided to separately make a diverse sve svo mod

[brisk timber]

But sundrop is in early development anyway. Plenty of time for that

[brisk timber]

Do it. Love that place

Especially now that it supports MNF

[pine fjord]

you can tell me to jump off a cliff and i'd do it for you

now i have no choice but to get it

[fading shell]

yes, more pufferchicks XD

[brittle citrus]

Yo Jack, any mods you highly suggest? Planning a huge modpack once I 100% vanilla

And I dont want !modrecs lol

[brisk timber]

Oh no, the pressure

I dont have like a list handy or anything. A lot of my modlist is built around supporting a harder game

[pine fjord]

literally eveyr single mod of gwen's

[brisk timber]

I can post my log in a minute though

[brittle citrus]

Sure :P

[brisk timber]

Maybe I'll write up my own modrecs while I put off doing the vortex guide lmao

[brittle citrus]

yesssssss do it

[brisk timber]

I wanted to do one anyway as a more comprehensive challenge list

And now that FRS exists, it's mostly complete

[brittle citrus]

What is FRS?

[brisk timber]

Ferngill Revenue Service. Brand new tax mod

[brittle citrus]

Oh boy, that does not sound fun LOL. My problem is I just go through the nexus mods list of all time and find nothing i like

[ashen elbow]

mood

[brisk timber]

I mostly load up the 'recently updated' page and something catches my eye every few hours lol

https://smapi.io/log/ceeb9e541d944e9aa07d668c70a22b53

I gotta hop in the shower but feel free to ask me anything and I'll get back to you

and maybe I'll write start that rec list this afternoon after I go get furniture

[brittle citrus]

jesus that is so much crap

not crap but mods

[fading shell]

a while a go, i spent a couple of days going through all of nexus and picking up what looked interesting. since then, i've been checking the recently released every day.

[lyric gale]

Any mod that just gives grid info for like scarecrows, sprinklers, and bee houses?

[fading shell]

data layers

[fervent wasp]

data layers is cool dawg

[fading shell]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1691

[lyric gale]

Besides that one? Just tried it and it’s a bit more than I wants

[brittle citrus]

Where do you find pathoschild's unofficial mods

[ashen elbow]

probably on the forums

[brittle citrus]

Yeah I found the forum page, too bad its 40 pages long

[fervent wasp]

try Ui Info then dawg

[worthy prawn]

thats broken as of now yes?

[brittle citrus]

There is an unofficial release for 1.5 but I have no idea where

https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/unofficial-mod-updates.2096/page-4#post-20605

There you go

[lyric gale]

I will try, ty!

[fervent wasp]

np

and there’s the link sammy sent

[brittle citrus]

This is a cool link https://smapi.io/mods

Ill just go through all of them lol

[unreal stratus]

Hey hey Did you fix the NPC Map issue?

[lyric gale]

XD nope! Haven’t seen you lol

[native dragon]

@lyric gale You leveled up to Cowpoke. You can now speak in our voice channels!

[ashen elbow]

who needs a hopper when you have automate lol

[lyric gale]

Yaaaayyy!!!!

[unreal stratus]

@lyric gale You have Immersive Farm?

[lyric gale]

Grandpas

[unreal stratus]

Ah darn ;_;

I fixed it for IFR2

[lyric gale]

XD

[unreal stratus]

For Grandpa's:
RSV overlays the G'Pa map its vanilla map

So somehow it needs to load BEFORE G'Pa does

[plain remnant]

Anyone know how to fix the pine trees here not changing to wittily's trees? It was fine in spring but now it's yknow
Should I just send in a bug report?

[dire fractal]

Kind of confused, It says the latest version for one of the Android installer broke, the other has something else wrong with it. Is there not a way to use mods on android currently? Apologies for being simple-minded T T

[fading shell]

dude, it's 10pm, go home XD

[ashen elbow]

lmao

[lyric gale]

@unreal stratus oh also, I had a heart event with Ian that was from when we were still bf/gf. But we’re already married. Is that normal?

[ashen elbow]

you probably missed the heart event when you were dating, so it's triggering now that you're married

[lyric gale]

So normal regardless of who it was?

[fading shell]

gee, what view have you got at this time without a glow ring?

[brisk timber]

range display should be updated

[fervent wasp]

claire needs to be added in the real game bro

[brisk timber]

huh, the compat list has it as broken but I'm definitely using it

ohhh, range display is obsolete

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6752

this is the replacement I'm using that doesn't seem to be affected by zoom/UI scale issues

that should probably be the alternative on the compat list rather than data layers

[native dragon]

@brisk timber You leveled up to Shepherd. Wow, you've been talking a lot! Have a prettier, slightly more brag worthy, shade of blue.

[brittle citrus]

How do I get that >:

[brisk timber]

Wow, you've been talking a lot!
whatever governor

[brisk timber]

get what?

[brittle citrus]

an upgraded role haha

[brisk timber]

just keep talking. this is a few weeks' worth of living in this channel though

[pine fjord]

governor out here calling people out

[fervent wasp]

i added a pufferfish in the luau soup 2 times

[brisk timber]

aw I'm gonna miss all these alttp emotes I hardly used when nitro vanishes

[dire fractal]

Any help would be appreciated ^^"

[brisk timber]

ugh

[brisk timber]

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

@dire fractal Both Android SMAPI ports are currently broken. ZaneYork is aware of the issue. There is no ETA for a fix. A large portion of the graphics code got abruptly changed which caused the port to break.

ZaneYork does accept pull requests if you are able to submit a fix. You can also check the repo for updates for when a new version is released. https://github.com/ZaneYork/SMAPI-Android-Installer

[brisk timber]

basically android is still on hold until someone takes up the port

you can use 1.4-compatible mods and a 1.4 version of smapi/SDV on android but it's quite a lot of work

[dire fractal]

Ah, right. Apologies for the bother, thank you ^^

[fervent wasp]

just watch ben 10 and wait bro

[brisk timber]

no bother at all. we're here for questions

[spiral notch]

Well...guess it is a good thing I hadn't gotten very far in my current save because looks like imma restart one more time 😅 Lunna looks too good to pass up

[pine fjord]

HAH do your restart every tme you add an npc?

[brisk timber]

yeah I wouldn't think you'd need to restart for her

[spiral notch]

No but it says best installed on a fresh game lol

[pine fjord]

Orly?

I just restart every time i add significant content

npcs included

so i can experience them from the beggining

[snow spade]

i would never finish a save if i did that lmao

[brittle citrus]

Thats why I want to get a good pack before I start

[spiral notch]

I feel like I should add "X days without restarting" to my name lol

[brittle citrus]

How is your mod rec doc goin ;)

[spiral notch]

But honestly if I do it this time.......it will probably be the last I have to do it

[spiral notch]

It's not lol

[brittle citrus]

damn 😖

[pine fjord]

What sorts of mods do you like sammy?

Things that make the game harder? Easier? Exclusively new content? recolors?

[brittle citrus]

I like mods that make the game more efficient (like tractor), adds a lot of new content, and maybe a littlke harder but probs not

[fading shell]

i add expansions and npcs before starting a save, but crop, recipe, and machine mods get installed mid-game. ja shuffles are fun XD

[ashen elbow]

If i see something shiny it's going in my game

[fading shell]

well, i can help you with content, and maybe efficiency (though my efficiency tends to auto complete, which might be too efficient for what you're looking for XD )

[dire fractal]

I got the game today for pc and would love to try a nice aesthetic looking mod but i have absolutely no idea how to use mods :”)

[brisk timber]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

If you would like a guide to setting up mods for Stardew Valley, check out the getting started guide! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide

[fervent wasp]

it’s not hard tbh

[pine fjord]

Okay so! Personally, I'd recommend SVE, Garden Village Expansion, Walk to Dessert Expansion, Trent's Boarding House (and a few NPCs to go with), Escape to East Scarpe, for new locational content. All compatible.

You definitely want the entire PPJA suite (megapack if you're lazy to go grab them all), Artisan Valley, Starbew Valley, Chocolatier, Farmer to Florist, and Fizzy drinks. For new crop/recipe content. Big recommendation (additionally, bonster's crops and trees)

And lastly for QoL like tractor, you want Mega Storage, Automatic Gates, Automate (maybe), and tractor for sure

[brisk timber]

you'll probably want one of the many recolor mods, and https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1993 is what I use for my farm buildings. it has a ton of options

[fading shell]

basically, i'm running most, if not all, expansions and npcs that state compatibility with sve, and ppja

[pine fjord]

Oh yeha there's also the new village that looks great !! but i haven't tried it yet

[neat plaza]

i cant seem to get part 2 of sve's npc sophia's 6 heart event to trigger, anyone got ideas why?

[pine fjord]

might have more luck posting that in the sve server!

if no one knows here i mean

[fading shell]

ridgeside village is indeed great

[neat plaza]

oh yes there is one right

can someone send me an invite link

[umbral olive]

hello, i just start install some mod and everything work normally. However i think i download the latest version for these mod yet Smapi still showing these, is this normal ?

[pine fjord]

I'm mostly scared it's gonna be too big

[ashen elbow]

Manifest is incorrect.

you can go in the manifest.json and just change the little number to the latest version

[umbral olive]

oh

[fervent wasp]

fun fact i don’t marry sophia because she has my little sister’s name

[umbral olive]

is it change anything ingame ? or its just text ?

[neat plaza]

found it

[fading shell]

it is big, but i'm doing a birthday gift (and talk if they happen to be on screen) only run, and that's easing up exploration. (also, mobile phone mod works great this way XD )

[fading shell]

oh, for efficiency, i can highly recommend the mobile phone mod. when you get someone to 4 hearts, you can call them and get the friendship points for talking to them. it's great for the out-of-the-way/hard to track down npcs.

[pine fjord]

i'll definitely consider for later then

I gotta finish my own son first

I do sdv portraits for a living and i'm too scared to sprite my own boy

pathetic

[fading shell]

and, you pretty much just need to give someone an iridium quality loved gift for their birthday, and boom, 4 hearts

[brittle citrus]

Wow thankyou so much, and thankyou to others. Few questions, how about adding ridgeside village? Also do I need bonster's crops if I already get PPJA's crop mod?>

[brittle citrus]

Ok thanks!

[pine fjord]

Bonster's is different! just extra crops, it's fun if you're into them! ❤️

And yes ridgeside village seems great!

I don't personally have it so can't recommend it but it seems to be very loved ❤️

so up to you!!

[brittle citrus]

:3

[fading shell]

ridgeside is great, and it's due for a massive update very soon. bonster's has different crops and recipes, that complement ppja

[ashen elbow]

Aaaa the reason i dont install too many crop mods is because i end up having way too many

[pine fjord]

i love having ten thousand

[brittle citrus]

Any other suggestions?

[fading shell]

would you like to peruse my log? XD

[brittle citrus]

The logs are overwhelming for me, maybe if you could just list a few that would be great, if not then sure!

[spice turret]

hiiiiiiiiiiii

[fading shell]

alright, i'll peruse my mod folder and see what else jumps out

[spice turret]

[brave pond]

Hi! is it okay if i ask how to handle mods? it's my first time!

[ashen elbow]

sure, ask away

[spice turret]

yeth

[brisk timber]

ah

[spice turret]

CUTEST MOD

i can stare at it all day

[ashen elbow]

mood

[brave pond]

i had just downloaded 2 mods, wayback pelican town (alpha), and the daisy niko's recolor

I'm not sure but i think theyre contradicting eachother?

[fading shell]

mermaid island adds a small amount of content, but the summer market gives you another go at submarine/night market fish. (as well as more flower decorations, and fish based recipes. pair mermaid island with more new fish mod, and a koi tank mod by the same team.) stardew aquarium will give you a place to put all your fish, modded and vanilla, as a fish version of the museum.

also, if you want crops/recipes. ssaturn's tropical farm and oriental kitchen (they come with gift tastes for sve characters).

i personally like the cider press mod, which i don't think is part of ppja specifically, but has compatibility with it. i also like starbound crops and platonic's pumpkin days hybrid crops for fun.

mineral mage and secret gourmet provide different, and not usually thought of, avenues for progress, and they're both reasonably well balanced for profit/ease.

ore increase can help with efficiency without feeling too cheaty.

and if you want witchy mods, there's witchy valley and valley herbalist.

[brave pond]

i followed throgh the wiki on how to download mods

[ashen elbow]

is it a visual bug or?

[brave pond]

well for one thing is that the farmer house is the same thing, it looks so out of place

[ashen elbow]

way back PT only changes the town

[brittle citrus]

Woah thanks so much, Ill check em out

[ashen elbow]

So the farm buildings arent changed

[spice turret]

do u mean the house is the vanilla colour

[brave pond]

the other ones are that the fiber grass is unchanged, and the pt windows are pitch black

[spice turret]

farm hous

[brave pond]

ah yes

[spice turret]

ohhhh

[deep totem]

Hi is there any mod that provides tracker profession in limited scale (showing the forage location but only when it is near the farmer)?
I like picking up stuff from ground but not fond of walking behind the trees and paying extra attention to the map. It'll be nice if it can scale with the foraging skill level

[fervent wasp]

you are helping me indirectly lol

[spice turret]

cant u have one recolour at a time or is that just me

[brave pond]

i was thinking that the farm house would be affected by the daisy niko mod

or am i mistaken? ;;

[brisk timber]

I don' think DN touches farm buildings

Elle's seasonal buildings does though

[spice turret]

i dont really know, i have the daisy niko mod but i changed the building of my farmhouse

[ashen elbow]

can you send a screenshot of what it looks like @brave pond
(the fiber grass and windoes)

the farmhouse is not affected by either mod, and instead is affected by other farm building mods

things like gwen's medieval buildings and Elle's seasonal buildings
