Do I need that Joja membership? Cause I was trying to not give them any money and run them out of town.

buying the joja thing makes them tear it down and build a warehouse. to start on the community center you gotta wait a couple days and trigger the event where the mayor is looking at it and things will get rolling from there

Hm, not sure if this is going to be useful this late, but I made a version of Harvey with the mustache extended into a full beard. I know there's already another bearded Harvey floating around out there, but that one's beard is a lot thicker. (I actually made this the night Stardew came out, I just haven't thought about sharing it until now. :v:)
I've also included overworld sprites, but they're not shown here.


Link here. The file directory and formats should be already set, so you should just be able to unzip them into the game's main directory.

Added to the chucklefish forum post. Does anyone want a megapost about modding for those who can't be assed to go over there? I don't want to be annoying about it; I'm just really excited.

Ditto on the excitement but unless there's gonna be a goon-centric modding community, I don't see why we can't just do it all on their turf.

Okay I just saw the "make Pam hot" mod and yeah, maybe we should just keep it here.

I think that face swap mod would be a hell of a lot more jarring than anything else, considering that everyone else would still look the same. Having two clashing artstyles in my game at the same time ain't my definition of fun.

I'm torn on whether or not I like those old portraits better. The older ones look far more generic, but the more stylized versions of the new portraits does some of the characters a disservice (namel Abigail and Harvey).

Leah, Maru, and Sebastian all definitely look better with the new portraits though.

The mod is modular (heh) though. You can install only the character files you want.

It's a parry. If a monster hits you when doing it then you take no damage and the monster takes some.

PS here is my mine tip that I found out today. On some levels in the mind there are minecart rails and at the end of the rail there's an abandoned mine cart with some coal loaded up that you can take.

Oh you can very easily just swap 1 person, it's not an all or nothing proposition.
And Abigail's old portrait is better only in that the coloring isn't hosed. Someone's actually made a re-color of her and that looks way better.

Yeah, now that I look at them side by side, the new portraits are an improvement across the board with the exception of Harvey (come on, nobody wears moustaches like that anymore) and Abigail (I think it's a coloring thing in her case)

Hang onto one of each of the four forage items you can find for each season. You can turn those in to the community center for rewards. Otherwise, just go nuts selling poo poo. Those backpack upgrades are absolutely invaluable.

That's a pretty big list all well and told.

You'll want to examine the bundle requirements here.

And villager gift options here.

For gifting: I would hold onto all gems for gifting (Emily and Clint love them, amethysts to Abigal and diamonds are a great gift to several villagers). Parsnips (Pam), Tulips (Evelyn) and strawberries (Maru & Demetrius) are great gifts for the named. With regards to foraging, only leeks stand out as a great gift to George, wild Horseradish is a great gift to a NPC you likely won't get in spring, and the other options available are good gifts for the npcs that like them.

With regards to coral, the only use I've seen for them is making a beach teleport totem which requires two pieces. I used one urchin for the bundle and I've been dumping coral and urchins in the box or selling to Willy as I get them.

Edit2: And for crissakes if you get a rainbow shell, HOLD ONTO IT until you get the quest that requires one!

If you're wanting to gift pickles to Harvey, one preserver needs to be dedicated to making pickled veggies. Add another and you can finish his weekly gifting in two days instead of most of the week. Everything else is profit if you so choose.

There's really no reason to min/max, honestly. Everywhere is fine except the ponds on your plot. Go walk around, explore, fish. You wanted to get out of the crappy min/max lifestyle, thats why you moved to gramps farm.

Maybe that is why YOU did! My farmer is fleeing a warrant, thank you very much!

Yeah okay fine heh, but a few more questions (I loves me some fishing):

1. Does the distance you cast from shore matter, if there are no bubbles?
2. Does a "perfect" have any effect? Does it increase the odds of better fish?
3. Do "streaks" matter?
4. Is the quality of fish mainly determine by your luck for the day?
