Merry Grumbus EditionPrevious: >>506356250>Game NewsLatest game version is 1.6.15 on PC, console bugfixes still coming.>Mod NewsC-Team mod is finally out for testing if you're into that sort of thing. Assorted other anon projects are also being worked on and posting progress updates.
The Beebz is dead!
>>507744672No at all. She's like Mario. Good person free spirit girl jumping around. This mod add more dialogues to her than just "wahoo"
>>507749172>C-Team modIs this comparable to the jas mod in terms of content and "special" cutscenes?
>>507751492Jas Mod is laserfocused on a single character and has no problem in supplying content for her, while the C-team Mod naturally stretches itself thin to keep with 6 different characters, but it has a gigantic amount of soul and side content to make up for it. It's impossible to compare them, they're very different scopes.
>>507743093my beautiful try hard brat
>>507749465The beebz is ded?! Hey! Who killed beebz?!
>missed the flower dance by 10 minutes because I forgot it takes place in the forest and not the townUnironically one of my most embarrassing moments in this game.
>>507753530Just use Cheat Menu to turn back time
cteammodIt seems like the bodies for both Hat Kid and Renata are EXTRA THICK with 2 tile height, as I cannot walk behind them and I can't reach them to talk to them. From their sides I could speak to them.Beebz and Carol were normally thin and could talk from above, and Nobeta and Anubia had understandably 2 tile height with the towels as one might expect.
Inspired by a recent mod release, I was thinking about making a character mod based off someone from a game I'm making. How hard is it to make these type of mods?
>>507753530What the fuck were you minging about in the Town for anyway? All the shops are closed on event days.
>>507757191NPC mods are basically a gigantic laundry list comprised of many individual parts. Making a badic NPC that just exists is easy enough, the challenge comes from filling everything else him: Home location, Heart Events with a plotline, the gorillions of possible dialogue keys both obligatory and optional and marriage (technically optional but expect interest in your character to drop like a rock if she's female and attractive but not marriageable), which is an entire can of worms on its own and pretty much requires work that amounts to 2 NPCs in 1 if you throw in post-marriage events on top. And this is not to mention all the art you need.In short, making NPCs that isn't barebones and doesn't suck requires gigantic amounts of passion, effort and patience to research all the shit you need to learn.
>>507758039Guessing he's the guy from last thread who planted 117 strawberries and only has the default watering can and then went the wrong way after manually watering them allThat oughta do it
>>507757191Making a functional NPC requires a lot of time writing json files, which is additionally annoying to do because a lot of these changes can only be tested by firing up the game and getting a file set up with whatever conditions you've specified for everything from dialogue lines to cutscenes to schedules and whateverIt is however kind of fascinating to see your additions translate from a bunch of sprites and text files full of gobbledygook into moving characters so if you think you have a stomach for learning/writing entry-level code and any semblance of writing skill I reckon you should go for itIf you do decide to try, you're probably gonna want Cheat Engine and the Cheat Menu mod to facilitate the testing process, I had to stalk a character's routine like a couple dozen times to figure out if all my dialogues and animations were set up right for a single day and Cheat Engine's the only thing that made that bearable

Trinnie already has that princess outfit for the game's Halloween festival but I thought it would be funny if squirrel Trinnie dressed up as Sandy from Spongebob.
>>507762067You don't need Cheat Engine for that anymore. Behold.https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/28198Also don't forget about the "hurry <NPC>" debug command.
>>507764547
>>507751492They're hard to compare in that sense and have different priorities. In terms of raw content, Jas mod in 1.6 is mostly a ton of dialogue, literally thousands of lines, loads of it randomized, and a bunch of subtle changes. It's genuinely a good mod even for those who have zero interest in marrying Jas, want a mostly vanilla experience, or want something that seems more lightweight. 1.6 neutered it from 1.5 though due to killing side mods and it's events are pretty basic since debug events are still in debug. C-Team is more noticeable since it's all spread out over 6 characters wandering around, but no one character has as much content as Jas does. It does however have plenty of cool ideas.Out of all the mods though, Morgan's is the biggest with the most broad content. It's basically Jas mod, but more varied, finished events, and with an OC.
>>507764007I just realized telling you to change the filenames for files users are supposed to replace was a dumb move, so I fixed them so I can update the link on MH. Thank for you work once again.

What does the spa look like now?
>>507777026Like a place where a homo calling himself the boss of this gym would accost you.

Is Free Love dead and entirely replaced by Troonyamory Sweet now?
>>507787314Nah we have someone else making their own poly mod. https://github.com/EnderTedi/Polyamory
>>507787552Being developed at a glacial pace though, and I think it only exists because some authors were seething at the thought that they couldn't enforce their donut steels sexuality and make them refuse to marry the "wrong" gender or enter into polygamous relationships
gave Anubia the bouquet. so will you be able to marry her despite not having some of the stuff finish yet?
>>507787972qrd?
>>507789802I don't know all the details, I just remember something about the PolySweet troon being the target of some ire over it (and Free Love I guess since PS is just a fork of FL) making roommate relationships romantic or something, which led to modders discussing how they wanted more control over who their special snowflakes would smooch
>>507786235>gives locals jobs>makes Pierre seethe>lets you buy out-of-season strawberriesLife's better with Joja, simple as
>>507792323You're not a real farmer
While not the same character will Anubia ever do the Ankha dance?
Does the c team mod include poly by default?
>>507794215did a fanart of that last year. now if only she's popular enough to warrant someone to make an animated dance for her.
>>507793374Go back to your shrine grandpa, maybe I'll give you a diamond I got out of selling premium cash crops to Joja
>error occurred while extracting the zipHmm... highly sus
Spent tonight figuring out a design for fem Elliott, decided to go with the oujo-sama look after all to go with his penchant for the arts and lobsterNot entirely sure I actually want to go with the giga-tit size on her, either her or femShane's probably gonna have to go a couple cup sizes down and I have no idea how I'm gonna do up that one's outfit yet, except that I'm probably gonna get rid of the Joja jacket because Shane has a dedicated Joja uniform outfit now
so even after having anubia as a girlfriend status, I still have't got to date her. she just asks me to go away and ignores me after (ouch).is there anything else I need to do to start the date option?
>>507789302You tell me. I think there's default spouse rooms for female/male.>>507794378No.>>507801829You mean marry? There's no relation between girlfriend and marriage.There's a couple of vanilla conditions, namely:-Tier 2 house-The bridge repaired for mermaid pendant for some reason-10 HeartsI wouldn't bother though, there's no marriage content atm.>>507757191If you're making a game then making a Content Patcher mod should be a breeze.The biggest concern would be making good looking portraits.The rest is just following the wiki guides and using other Content Patcher mods as reference.
>>507759190>>507762067Thank you, anons. It doesn't seem too bad, just mostly planning and debugging besides the art and writing stuff. Looking forward to contributing to the thread next year!
>>507803540>no marriage content atm>it's the next-update-in-2-years-maybe episode
>>507799761This is cute I like it
>>507803856They estimated the update to be in 6 months they're just doing bug fixes right now
>>507799761You're designs are always good to see, hope you had a merry Christmas!
>>507803540>>507805454I shall wait then
>>507807128>you'reHi Jas
>>507808980No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>507809875Is this real? I feel like they had to know with "we put her messed up situations" kek
>>507810483I don't know anonI don't work here
>>507799761sexo
>>507789802One of the East Scarp add-on authors was fucking mad that PolySweet users kept breaking the mod's unique dating mechanics and asking for compat, but the straw that broke the camel's back was PS's feature to let you marry non-marriageable characters, because this gave them the game's ultra-generic marriage dialogue meaning it would "erase" the identities of the mod's NPCs (a clusterfuck of troonshit). So this guy, also an ES author, >>507787552 made a new mod out of spite that allows authors authors to especifically set characters you can't marry, but this spite unfortunately wasn't enough as he's a lazy fuck who barely updates the thing.
>>507814973That's why Lavril is abandoned. I really hope someone could rescue her because it seem like the author doesn't give a fuck anymore.
>>507814973Ech. So the drama. My head hurts just trying to wrap around it. Sheesh.
>>507816624So Nobeta is the airhead of the group.
>>507799761>except that I'm probably gonna get rid of the Joja jacket because Shane has a dedicated Joja uniform outfit nowShane's Joja uniform looks like a sweater, so you could do something involving sweater puppies.
>>507816891It's an odd decision (especially since Renata more or less already filled that niche in the C-team art), but I'm not opposed to it at all. I like to headcanon it as brain damage from all the canon repeated deaths in her game.
I use the online Mouseypounds Predictor tool to check for infestations on Dust Sprite floors so I can get the Burglar's Ring as painlessly as possible and I'm not afraid to admit.
>>507828590How dare you cheat in a single player game meant to be played at your own pace like that?
>>507828590You didn't beat the game.
Is Jas mod compatible with custom portraits? I'm using the anime mod ones plus it's seasonal portraits mod.
>>507838582There are a few on a certain site, but otherwise no because the jas mod has a bunch of unique portraits.
>>507839448That's a shame, I really like how Jas looks like here. Is there no way to make it work?
>>507840392I think that one does have an incomplete conversion, but beyond converting all of them to the jas mod's yourself or waiting for someone else to do it, no.
>>507840392Literally impossible unless you redraw them yourself. First and foremost, the Jas mod now uses portraits separated in layers, with her face, dress and ponytails on different pngs.
cteammodMore of an addendum to already reported rain schedule problem.Even during the green rain they go to the beach. They also act normal. No special dialogue about green rain.
>>507841449cteammodAlso, Carol is still here at 11pm. All other girls have gone to bed in the treehouse.
>>507838582Nope, the only custom portraits Jas has compatible with her mod are her anthro mouse portraits and sprites.
>you can't sell smoked fish to WillyI know it's due to the fish > artisan good change but that doesn't make it any less retarded.
>>>/aco/8659408Here's something for the Pennyfags
>>507848830Doesn't he also sell the recipe to make smokers? Now that I think about it are there even any mods that makes its so you can sell anything in shops like metal bars to Pierre's or crops to Clint?
>>507854142>Doesn't he also sell the recipe to make smokers?Who, Ape or Willy
>>507854476Wily obviously
>>507841117>the Jas mod now uses portraits separated in layers, with her face, dress and ponytails on different pngs.Huh I thought it was just a dialogue/event mod, guess I'll just have to play normally and romance a hag then.
>>507855386Oh...>Ape will never drop by in the spring and give us keys to sheds with fish cookers he built himself
>>507841117You can if you use portraiture, but that'll only work using those 5 portraits in vanilla situations. I know because I was using a custom Jas portraits from the other place before my PC broke. No sure what happen in any custom expression if you use a vanilla portrait sheet. I think portraiture use one of the five by default. Prob the very first one because I never had any issue.
>>507865648Is Portraiture so broken it only works with vanilla portraits?
>>507866096No it work with any portrait. Again, I use multiple portraits from diferent people ( Nyapu, Kivo, etc ) and I never had an issue before.
Does Anubia actually sleep? keep seeing her doing her financial reports and taxes (all those boring stuff) every night. Never seen her use her bed.
>>507807128Thanks, I think the break did do me some good, I feel like I've got my creative motivation flowing lately>>507818963Well, the de facto design for female Shane (as in the only one out there as far as I know) gives her a turtleneck sweater so one of the sexy meme sweaters might work, not sure though because now that I think about it removing Shane's jacket may change his color palette too much unless I replace it with something elseFor the uniforms I was thinking of running with the fact the nameless clerk wears an apron and making them wear the Starbucks naked apronsClaire would have to wear it too if I ever get around to SVE characters
>>507828590I've done the dust sprite grind enough times that I really don't want to anymoreMaybe a better workaround would be to make dust sprites spawn on every floor so we don't have to just live in the iron mines for several days?
>>507869370Isn't she undead? It would make sense if it was intentional.
>>507859432It's a total Jas overhaul.
>>507799761How is she supposed to write a book with those bazookas in the way?
>>507877574But i don't want her to overwork herself...
>>507870416Kannachan must be protected at all costsMovie when?
I always used the AT version of Elegant craftables. Does exist other kind of AT for craftables?
>>507882759Very slowly because she keeps smudging the pages she's already written when she starts the next one
>>507870416>>507883106Remind me the mod I was trying to make before the 1.6 update and ES mod ruin everything I made. I'm sure I left the resources here just in case someone wanted to do something with it. But it was pretty much a mess.
>>507882796Fair enough. Maybe they'll add some events relating to the fact she doesn't sleep and feels lonely at night or maybe we'll encourage her to relax at night.
>>507885606That would be splending. Romantic and wholesome too
>writing bathing dialogue for NPCs>there's a dialogue key for speaking in specific locations at specific coordinates>there's a dialogue key for speaking in specific locations with a minimum heart level>but there's no dialogue key for speaking at specific coordinates with a minimum heart level
Summer year 2 and got my first 5 eridium bars, what should I upgrade first?
>>507886368Probably unlocking Ginger Island
>>507886368Pickaxe for faster rock smashing and faster ores.
>>507886295When it comes to modding you have to get creative or you're NGMI.
>>507885606Nah, spooky sleep and she's a ghost. I think is better if despite everything, Anubia can also sleep and do things others can do too.
>>507882796I paused time at 6am and found her in bed. Her bedtime is your bedtime.
>>507886820Well shit, I dunno how I missed something as obvious as just adding conditions, thanks

i can fix shane
>>507892965Don't worry, thanks to magic is totally safe!
>>507886908It's also pretty common to depict undead like vampires as sleeping in their coffins and she straight up busts out of a sarcophagus in her game, doesn't she
>>507799761Ok, seeing that femElliot is still tiddy and ojou sama, what's in store for femShane? is she going to be a girlfailure or whatever that means?
>>507886295Woah is that a bocchi refrence?
>>507892965Jas and Morgan were drinking their own supply...
I'm gonna do it. I will join Anubia's fanclub even if it slows down my Joja run by a massive degree.
>>507896152I can't say I'm entirely up to speed on zoomer lingo but Shane's probably too defeated to even try to be a girlfailureEither way, probably can't do much more than just make her scruffy with dead fish eyes, maybe add an overlay that restores the light in her eyes after the 10-heart event
Jane has to be one of the few non-loli NPCs I really like. Love this autist like you wouldn't believe.
>>507902369Oh interesting, I remember Jas mod and nude valley mod having overlays for their specific choices (clothes and blue eyes for jas and hypnosys and glasses for nude valley), that'd be cute, femShane having those lively eyes later on.

>>507906820Christ, that just sounds like miseryEven if the bloat mods need a gameplay reason to exist I don't think this is it
>>507906820>8-10 yearsWho the fuck even plays that long?
I thought this was a wholesome farming game, where did all the cunny come from?

>>507925275Well maybe anubia or jas will keep me invested in this game for the time being
I think I figured out how to get Sprites in Detail to do higher res sprites without breaking NPC Map Locations, at the expense of making the social menu/calendar menu mugshots look squishedAt the expense of having to separately add an entry for every single frame of each NPC's sprite sheet like I was trying to do with SpaceCore...
