ACC is updated for 1.6! It's hot off the presses; this sticky will be updated with more details soon but feel free to download and enjoy in the meantime~ (and we intend to add more features soon!)
Edit: Hang tight! We're working on fixing some minor bugs; check back as we fix things over the next day or so~
Edit 2: Things are looking very stable, so we are onto the next phase of working on all 12 genderswaps.
Please keep reporting them as you find any! (After ensuring correct installation and no mod conflicts~)
Excellent complimentary mods we recommend: Furry Farmer by previous ACC contributor Krystedez lets you customize your player character as a furry in Stardew! Anthro Babies by Crexyen gives your character's children sprites that resemble your chosen spouse! Furry Stardew Valley Expanded Continued by previous ACC contributor RydelTheOtter allows compatibility between SVE and ACC. (Note: ACC may update in the future with its own SVE compatibility. In that event, we will still link to FSVEC for those who prefer Rydel's take on the mod.)
4-15-2017: I've just updated the main mod file to include two small-scale fixes, one to Sandy and one to Haley. While they are very minor, I still recommend updating the file and overwiting your previous version. Many thanks to ninjakaami and HYODO for the catch and the assistance~
4-26-2017: Mod's just been updated again. Now has a patch to offer support for Siv's Marriage Mod, as well as making the mod more compatible with Mac and Linux operating systems.
5-14-2017: Updated Cursors.xnb with several transparency tweaks to make several sprites such as water look better. Added new anthro sprites to the Prairie King mini-game. Thanks to Mocha Mokat~
5-27-2017: Edited the townInterior.xnb to change the clinic "FLU" sign from a human nose to a goat one. Thanks to Arrkhal for "catching" this one~ (hue hue hue)
6-12-2017: Edited Emily's .xnb file to correct several errors involving her hands during her walk cycle. Thanks to Rydel for noticing, and apologies to Emily enthusiasts!
6-16-2017: Minor portrait adjustments for Penny and Haley; thanks again to Rydel for the sharp eyes!
7-6-2017: More portrait adjustments as well as an awesome compatibility patch for RTGOAT's Longevity mod courtesy of Rydel. Fantastic stuff~
8-6-2017: Mini-update; added additional sprites and fixes to the Longevity-ACC Compatibility Patch. Many thanks to Rydel and luna_panshiel~
8-7-2017: Huge update (to overshadow the mini-update) which added brand new sprites for Demetrius, Evelyn, Emily and Robin. Endless thanks to Gaveliere~ (Now stop asking if these guys are included in the mod!)

5-10-2018: Added translation patch and various other 1.3 Beta fixes as well as a 1.2 fix for Sebastian. Thanks go to lxlhunter~
6-25-2018: Updated the main 1.3 and Content Patcher files thanks to ColaWolf and Sabs like "labs" respectively. Moved the 1.2 legacy version of the mod to Old Files. 1.3 is now the primary version of the mod; 1.2 will likely no longer be supported by us going forward.
6-29-2018: Fixed a major error with the previous upload of the main file. Also added several small fixes to ACC 1.3. Credit goes to Blanchard for a change. :P

Let me know if you run across any other errors or missteps. If you enjoy the mod, consider endorsing it~
Thank you soo much for making this! I have already been sporting ears and a tail and now I can match the villagers! Is there any plans on making portraits for Ridgeside Village, Downtown Zuzu, and/or East Scarp? If not that's cool, but I want to play an all out playthrough and it would be really nice to have everyone anthro
I dunno if it's a bug or intended but SMAPI is telling me this each time I launch
[Content Patcher] Error loading patch 'Anthro Characters Continued > Include assets/start_here.json > Include assets/SVEConfig/sve.json': file 'assets\SVEConfig\sve.json' doesn't have anything in the Changes field. Is the file formatted correctly?.
From what I can see it's related to genderswaps which I'm not using so maybe it's ok to just let it be? Just wanna make sure :P
Thanks for all the hard work on this mod it's one of my favorites for the game and the game felt wrong for the time I was without it x3
I'm SO super excited for this update. This is my all-time favorite mod to use, whenever I play Stardew Valley. It made me love residents of Pelican Town even more with their anthro designs. You all did an amazing job. I salute you all for such hard work. You all deserve it.
P.S. Girls are all super cute, it makes me difficult to choose a favorite design-wise. ^^;
Thank you for the kind words~ And oh boy, if you're having difficulty deciding on a favorite girl now, just wait until the MtF genderswaps are done...!
Not to be "that guy" - and totally understand if the answer is a no for any reason - but any plans to release a replacer-version like the older versions? Asking only since I run this on Switch which has minimal mod support
Hmmm… Do replacer mods even work on switch? If so then maybe we’ll consider it. I want to believe you, but please provide some kind of evidence/research. If we do this, I’ll want to write up clear steps on how to use it for switch.
Mods that are simple xnb replacement do work, I've been running the 1.5 build of this and the old furry farmer one (I had to convert the png back to xnb for it). Anything more complex then that will not work. The guide for it was here -https://gbatemp.net/threads/install-stardew-valley-pc-mods-on-switch-using-layeredfs.513598/
(This is a bit outdated, the "titles" folder is now "contents"
I’ll think about it. It’d actually be a lot of work, and I’m not convinced it’s worth our effort to maintain for such a small audience. The coolness factor of seeing it runn on a switch is definitely alluring, though.
I think what would be most equitable would be instead of us maintaining different versions of this mod, someone should make a Content Patcher-To-XNB converter that works for *any* Content Patcher pack (or at least a subset since you might not be able to replicate all features). If someone made such a thing, you wouldn’t need me to do anything at all. You’d just take Gav’s mod, run it through the converter, and then you’d be all set.
If I were you I would ask the making-mods-general channel of the Stardew Valley discord about switch modding. Someone on there might have advice. Pathoschild (the creator of SMAPI and Content Patcher) is sometimes there himself.
No worries, I had a feeling this was the case just given how much better Content Patcher is (and the >severe< limitations of back-porting for a niche device) - plus I've done this before so I know what I need to do. Started on it this morning between meetings and am almost done converting it already :) The community that would want/need a CP->XNB is so small, I've searched for a while to find a tool for it. Thankfully there is a batch PNG-XNB site I can just click-drag all the files on to. Just have to manually merge all the ones using "ToArea" into their respective master PNGs first
Thanks for the time/feedback - and to you and the rest for making the mod itself! Been using it since it's infancy on other forums site :)
Hey there! This has been one of my favorite Stardew mods for a long time. I'd like to suggest a patch that adds furry portraits for They Deserve It Too - Portraits for Vendors.
Interesting concept! I can't make any promises as we're all knee-deep in work on the next phase of the mod, but I'll check in with the team about this. I personally think it would be a great addition~
While I was sure we'd see a 1.6 update for this eventually, I am absolutely blown away by the speed that it released in. Fantastic job! Thank you so much for making sure my favorite mod lives on.
donedonedone278 coming on board was a huge, huge help with speeding up the process and modernizing everything! He's taken over on the coding side of things and has done so much behind-the-scenes stuff that Gav and I wouldn't have been able to do on our own. There's so many more cool things coming down the pipeline, too, thanks in no small part to him~
Do be sure to check back in the future! We are cooking up so many new things that are definitely worth popping back in for~
I'm not absolutely 100% it was this mod that did it but it is the mod I use with the most extensive dialogue changes so I would assume it probably is, but the quest for giving an Amethyst to Emily on Clint's behalf was missing its text description. The quest otherwise worked fine though. For reference, I was playing on current patch, dialogue changes enabled, genderswaps not enabled.
I don't think it's Anthro Characters causing your problem. My test came back clean: https://imgur.com/a/A66opR6 Let us know if you find out more! Remember to validate your steam game files if you've used the replacer version of this mod in the past.
Hello, I really like your mod, and I want to translate this mod to Chinese. So could you modify the mod and add the i18n folder for Internationalization. I really want to let more people know about this mod. So if you agree, I can translate the text to Chinese for free. Maybe you can upload the text to the github of https://github.com/StardewModders/mod-translations. ^-^
We would absolutely love your help with translations, but we have some questions:
Are you talking about translating the genderswap? Are you confident that the same lines will need to change in Chinese that need to change in English? How do pronouns work in Chinese?
(The same questions apply to any other language. If someone wants to try and answer them for a different language it would be helpful for us to know)
Yeah, I am talking about translating the genderswap, but I can also translate all texts in the mod including the config text, it's not a big task, anyway.
Actually, all the Chinese texts in the StardewValley are translated from the original game. So the Chinese version does not have additional content that is not available in the English version. If you change the original text in English, I just need to change the corresponding text in Chinese.
And I can introduce the gender pronouns in Chinese briefly for you, the pronouns of Chinese is simliar to the English. He and His corresponds to “他” and "他的", She and Her corresponds to “她” and "她的", It and Its corresponds to "它" and "它的", They and Their corresponds to "他们/它们" and "他们的/它们的". For singular they, we use "他", because "他" can refer to male, female and gender-neutral. The pronouns in translating from English to Chinese is not a big problem, the other pronouns such as demonstrative pronoun also have their equivalents in Chinese.
I had translated furry visual novels before, and I will refer to the offical Chinese translation in original game to translate this mod, so don't worry if you trust me. ^-^
Ok, I’ll see what I can do! It might take me a few days to refactor things to make this possible.
Keep in mind that just because a line from the base game doesn’t change in English doesn’t mean that it doesn’t need to change in other languages. That’s the problem. But I’ll give you what you want because you sound confident.
Ok, I will go throught the text in Chinese and English again. If there are some texts need to extra change, I will tell you.
I know your concern. The other language may have more complicated grammatical gender such as in Russian, so in these languages may need to change more texts. In Chinese, our grammatical gender is similar to the English. There are only a few words that need special attention.
Yes, and it's being actively worked on! ddd is working on the coding side of things and I'm going to be hitting the dialogue changes over the next week. Gav has work piling up he needs to get back to this week, after which he will circle back around to work on all of the swap art that needs to be done. Note that he has a *lot* of artwork to do for this project, as not only does he need to update the existing swaps for the 1.6 outfits/expressions but has to make all-new spritework for 6 new characters. It's coming, though, and should have more neat functionality than currently exists (which I'll elaborate more on in the coming weeks!)
