With versions 6.x of the Seasonal Outfits mod it seems to be necessary, in the contents.json file, to explicitly tell Content Patcher to load the character sprites and portraits: "Changes": [ // OUTFIT LOADS
hi! sorry if this is a rookie mistake but, when i moved the seasonal tweaked shane assets into this template mod, the game boots up with normal vanilla shane :( i'm not quite sure what i did wrong? since i did configure it to set only as shane
Hello! Writing back to let you know I think I managed to fix it! I just did a quick tinkering and it works perfectly now. Thank you for your time writing back!!
Just wanted to say what a lifesaver this template has been! I've used it on my own mod, Seasonal Sam with a Mullet for 1.6, and it made the process very painless. I did a light tutorial on how to use your template on my blog if you'd like to send anyone there that needs more assistance. I'm not trying to step on anyone's toes with the tutorial, I genuinely just want to help those new to modding and I know authors don't always have the time to make their own tutorials. Thanks again for this!! You are an angel! I really hope more people see it and use it!
I'm kinda embarrassed to ask bc maybe this is a dumb question but, can i use this mod to make like my own mod? Like replace for example all bachelors and bachelorettes outfits to make them have a seasonal outfit? I can make my own sprites and own portraits and then post it on nexusmods? Do i have any restrictions with this? I don't plan on doing anything crazy, just do my own outfits and stuff like that to capture my vision, all the art will be made by me by hand.
The update has been out less than 24 hours and I've been at work. Please be patient and give me time to get around to things. If you want to know if it still works, you can always download it and try it out for yourself.
I apologize! I'm not trying to rush you! I'm just not sure of the scope of changes that took place with CP and was just wondering if you knew a flat yes or no. Again, I'm sorry!
This is what I needed! I've been seeing all the SVE and various seasonal mods and wanted one place to load up specific versions of characters but the assets are split across different mods. From what I understand this mod aims to call the ones needed into one place without messing with the OG mods?
I don't think I'm following you there - the aim of this mod is to provide a code template for vanilla character seasonal outfit mods that only include art files and don't have code of their own, such as those that rely on replacing files from Slightly Cuter Aesthetic. It doesn't affect SVE or other mod-added characters.
Hello there i have question regarding the installation if i want to install two seasonal outfit for two character , i should download this file for two time and put each of them inside the mod folder right? will it gonna be overwritten or i should rename the folder to make sure it is not overwritten or i can do it other way, and do i need open the manifest.json file for two time to change each of them? , im also curious about the one and two in manifest.json file what is the two stand for if i download more than one seasonal character do i still changing it to two or i should use other number (im sorry if my word doesnt make sense i dont know any coding basics but i want to install it right)
This is explained in the mod description - if you want to use this template with two or more characters, you will need to change the number in the manifest.json so that each one has a unique number. It doesn't matter what that number is as long as it's different for each copy of the template, otherwise SMAPI won't load any of them.
thank you for the amazing mod :D , i read the description again and figured it out now at first i was installing it and open up my game confuse why it doesnt change turnout i need to load the game first for SMAPI to generate config.json and configuration the file after, i thought i was doing it wrong at first also thank you for clarification about the number too
Could you upload a file that shows an example based upon this code template? I learn best by example when I can see what has already been done, but thank you for this resource.
Not really, sorry, as I don't have the time to create art just for this and this template already contains everything but the art :) Alternative Leah Portraits - Seasonal by TrashRacc1124 uses the template for their code though, so you're welcome to check out that mod.
