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
Very accessible and thorough. Well done!
thanks!
This was excellent! It was the first recommendation that came up when I searched for a mod helper, and you did absolutely wonderfully in explaining how to! Thank you.
To the point, step by step, and wonderful to listen to. Thank you!
SOLIDLY useful. I'm good at reading/skimming to learn, but sometimes I need that visual. Soothing, useful, THANK you
this was such a helpful introduction thank you so much for sharing!
Exactly what I needed 💜 thanks! Great video, very easy to follow along
Great video!
Helped me redo an outdated mod that I really liked and had stopped working.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.
This video was so helpful, I tried to watch some other videos on mods and didn't understand but this was a thorough video with all the information so thx :D
yay! so glad it helped :)
THIS IS SOOOO HELPFUL- I am SOOOO obsessed- new summer vacation project: make an entire texture pack until day 17 😭😍😭
so glad this video exists, i've been wanting to make a portrait and resprite mod for a while and this video is so helpful!
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.
Thank you SO much for this video! I've been wanting to do a reskin mod and this was the only guide that acutally made sense to me :3 Thank you so much :D!
thank you so much for this. i'm a slow learned and you explained everything so clear.
Thanks so much for this step by step! I'm no coder, nor do I know anything about it but you made this very easy to follow for someone who can atleast make the pixel art! Now to add the moogle hat 👍
Thank you very much for your video! You inspire to create! 💖
Wow this is very helpful in understanding and making a mod and now i have MASSIVE respect for those people who do recolors of sdv because i now realize you have to add text to the content.json for Every. single. texture. you change in a mod.
You literally saved my life! Thank you so much😭😭
that's so good to hear! you're welcome!!
Lifesaver thank you so so much!!!!!
Very easy to understand very swagger
i did everything this video said and went over it all again to make sure, but my edited portrait still isnt showing up :(
Incredible video
You r an angel tysm!!!
of course!! glad it helped!
thank you so much!!!
Great job!
thank you!
thank you!
I'm about to have way too much fun making new mods
I haven't figured out how to get the mod to work but to fix "folder is empty" you have to change the file types into json and the image to png!
3:44 si ya sabes instalar el juego y el smapi puedes ir a esta parte directamente cuando tengas eso hecho!😊
I did it for Sebastian at the beach but when I go to the beach (ginger island) he still wears his regular white shirt
Would this work for making new portraits that does more than just change the hair color?
can you make an updated one? i cant find the .json files on the wiki or could you post them here? Thank you so much for the video
It is almost the same if I want to create a portrait of a mod? In this case of Ridgeside Village
i have done everything but i still don't get the portrait? i don't get an error message or anything
I followed everything you said but when I test the mod it simply doesn’t change how the portrait looks. Smapi seems to read the mod correctly but idk why I keep seeing the original portrait :(
is this possible for a mod like the unofficical brewery mod and elles seasonal buidlings i want to make that but i dont know how to link that in the content.json
jesus ur voice is nice
The things you need to copy into the content.json file are no longer on the wiki, what do i do?
same
it keeps on saying that it's an empty file when i try to load it with smapi. how do you fix that?
Hello! I can help you with that, what you need to do when making the manifest and content json folders is go through notepad, paste the code in and then click "save as" and then "all files" and then you name it manifest.json or content.json to save it as a json file :)
@@Saltybisquit thank you so much! i was testing it with a random image by only making a content file to see if it says "no manifest.json file" so i know it works correctly! and it did after i used your tip! thank you so much that means a lot since i wanted to start coding!!!!
:D
u saved me tysm@@Saltybisquit
@@Saltybisquit thank you so much!!!!!!
@@Saltybisquitขอบคุณมากๆครับ! ได้ผลจริง
hello cozygoat I want to try to update the fruits and veggies mod which is outdated at the moment I say this, I would love it if you could teach me how to add things besides changing the texture of the game
Opening the game says "Assets folder empty" though I have the copied PNGs in there
Whenever I rename it to .json It just remains as a text document
i got a popup saying that it may harm my computer to open the exe file. is it safe to run? i don't really want to get any viruses and/or ruin any of my systems or files i have.
Is this still relevant to setting up 1.6+ mods? Im assuming this method is new enough that it wouldnt be affected
it would have been very nice to just give us the code in the description i cant find the page
anyone know where i can find the xnb that has the paintings?
I tried doing this method. Whenever i tried to load it, it said it couldn't because "the folder is empty" which it wasnt.
I follow it as well as I could, but I can't get it to work for the farmer sprite change.
EDIT: Nevermind, I forgot that I had other mods that overrode it!
there is only exe in the stardew xnb hack file there is no pdb, what should i do?
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.
u should change the shortcut to something else :D 6:26
Is it the same process to edit furniture?
it should be!
help!! When loading the game it says that there is no manifest.json file, but there is. I checked if it had something wrong on the coding but it was all right.
Mine keeps telling me that my files are empty (it is not) 😭😭
Are the manifest and content files actually .Json files? Or does it say they're txt.files? I had the same issue but had to convert them to .Json files and it was fixed.
@@dustymuu yeah. There’s some good converters online
@arthursmarthur hmm interesting so that's not the issue. I wish I could help but that was the only problem I ran into. If I could see the files that'd give me a better idea on what to do.
@@dustymuu No, no. I fixed it. I was just saying (for other ppl).
hey! any idea as to why it might say that the assets folder is empty?
did you ever figure it out? i have the same problem
for me it was the fact that my content and manifest files were text docs and not actual json files so you have to open them and save as and choose to save as all files and it will change it
@@natemcentyre5522 I have the same question, i tried yours, it still not working:(
@@user-uv1fv9cr7v make sure there are not duplicate files and i would just try and reexamine everything very carefully if you can. that’s the only way i found my mistakes
It says that the mod wont load because my assets folder is empty? Pls help!
you have to change the format for your json files! and make sure image is png!
How would I do this for a character in another mod?
Didnt work at All kept saying that the folder was empty when it wasnt if anyone knows a work around please please let me know
Eu preciso de mais tutoriais amigo
why doiesnt mine have pbd file?
same
hi!! i tried running the mod and it said the assets folder is empty, what do I do!!
make sure your json files didn’t save as txt
Did you solve the problem? I'm having the same issue
Why does it keep saying my mod is an empty folder
did you figure it out? i have the same problem
@@sqlointer no I haven’t yet I’m trying everything
It’s keeps telling me that it couldn’t load my mod because my file was empty. My file isn’t empty. Is there a possible way to fix it? What’s a cause for it doing that?
Hello! I can help you with that, what you need to do when making the manifest and content json folders is go through notepad, paste the code in and then click "save as" and then "all files" and then you name it manifest.json or content.json to save it as a json file :)
@@Saltybisquit Thank you.
Before this, I had actually already found the issue. I had to convert my files into being json files through a converter then I had to copy and paste the words ‘manifest.json’ and ‘content.json’ from another mods title to my own mods title, which finally got my mod to work!
IT KEEPS SAYING THE FOLDER IS EMPTY HELPPP
for me it was the fact that my content and manifest files were text docs and not actual json files so you have to open them and save as and choose to save as all files and it will change it
Best
Um, I think you forgot to finish some of your URLs...
I'm on mac os and I have no idea where my stardew valley file is, can anyone help?
That's an issue with how Finder works. I had the same issue. There a video on here that explains how to find it.
@@dejahvincent1234 Yeah I cant stand finder lol, I'll look for the video. Thank you
