    I've been going insane with downloading mods and the more I downloaded, the more I wanted to make one myself!
    Your video explains everything nicely and it was really soothing just to watch too, loved it!
    Can't wait to put my newfound knowledge to use :D

    Helped me redo an outdated mod that I really liked and had stopped working. I'm very happy to be able to use it again, unfortunately I don't know if I can post it without permission from the original creator.

      Hi, I can't add the mod to the game, I did the tutorial exactly step by step, but every time I go to enter it gives an error "this mod cant be added into your game cause its not an smapi mod" could you tell me help?, I don't know what to do.

    I just want to say this is the best I've seen. At first, I watched this and was like "hmmm I'm sure I can find another video to watch, too." But every time I come back to this.
    I've now managed to make functioning mods for NPCs, including modded NPCs like Stardew Expanded.
    If anyone wants to do more than editing individual images, I recommend finding a mod similar to what you want to make and then looking through the content.json to figure out what they were doing.
    Omg this was so much fun!
    Also, check your spelling if things don't work... it's a likely culprit.
