About this mod

Replaces Willy's vanilla dialogue with rewritten work for all heart levels and all seasons, applying design philosophy to create an engaging and rewarding relationship.

The Willy Narrative Overhaul strives to make one of Stardew Valley's lackluster NPC to become a more fleshed out, three dimensional character.
This includes things to say for every season, every day of the week, and every heart level. Overall, as of this writing, that's over 170+ lines of unique dialogue!

I've applied my narrative design philosophy to make becoming friends with Willy a rewarding experience. He will reveal things about his past, his passions, his failures, and more.

The goal was to create a character you look forward to talking to and seeing again. There is no cursing in this mod, as I've tried to make it Rated E.

1.3 And Beyond
With 1.3, the way .xnb files are found has been changed! In order to use my mods, you must use the versatile and friendly Content Patcher.

How to install Content Patcher and the Mods:

A bit more complicated versus what it was before, but at least it will be possible!
For the Content Patcher version of this mod, download the 1.3 Multiplayer Patch Version of this mod!

(The latest versions of the mod files, uploaded 6/6/18, are the official versions, with the most up to date patches.)


PRE 1.3:
(THE BELOW WILL NOT WORK IF YOU HAVE THE MOST UP TO DATE VERSION OF STARDEW VALLEY. See the "1.3 and Beyond" section above if you have the most recent patch (1.3 Multiplayer)


How to install:

Incredibly simple:
1. Download
2. Go to where you installed Stardew Valley.
3. Go to Stardew Valley\Content\Characters\Dialogue
4. Move the XNB file over and overwrite the old one.
5. You're done!

FAQS:
Q: Does it change what Willy says during events or rainy days?
A: No, since those are extra files, for the time I've let them be.

Version 1.1 Available now!
Patch Notes:
-Fixed spelling errors.
-Removed Spring Snapjaw (A fish that didn't exist) from Willy's Spring Dialogue. Was a bit more confusing than I hoped!
-Added unique "Good Bye" sayings for each day of the week, including a unique good-bye for each day at the 10th heart level. No more infinite "See You laters!"
-Changed all dialogue to continue on when initially talking to Willy, as opposed to be having to talk to him multiple times to see everything. This is more in line with my other mods that have come out since.
-Couple dialogue changes here and there.

THE CHINESE TRANSLATION IS NOW AVAILABLE!
Done by the wonderful Louisadela, taking my mod and translating it into simplified Chinese!

Get it from the files section now. To change your language, click the speechbubble on the title screen of the game!


FRENCH TRANSLATION NOW AVAILABLE!
Translated by the very talented Ipielle, this takes the mod and translates it into French! Here's hoping the french version comes out soon!
To install it, it's as simple as moving the file over into the Stardew Valley\Content\Characters\Dialogue and overwriting the Willy.xnb.


Perfect 10 Edition Extra File:
For people who got Willy's Heart Level to 10!
A best of mix of all the dialogue from this mod for every day of every season. This is for people who have had Willy at heart level 10 for awhile, or got tired of what he says at level 10 with the N.O.

With this, you'll see dialogue you may have missed, and he'll have something different to say the whole year long!

The install instructions are the same as above, however, the perfect 10 edition overwrites the previous mod! Which is okay if he's at Heart Level 10.
