Check the mod description. There is a lot of info there, about compatibility, how the mod works, data files, config...
When reporting a problem, it's really helpful to upload your log here (https://log.smapi.io/) and post the link. Even when there is no error in the log, there is info about versions and the other mods you are using. I will probably ask this info or ask for the log on my first answer, so it will speed up the communication process.
When supporting a mod we deal with people of all levels of knowledge, so don't be offended if I consider or ask basic stuff, I don't know you. And even experts can make mistakes.
Hello, I am attempting to add Animal Husbandry meat index to someone else's custom animals mod for personal use. I've reverse engineered where it's supposed to go based on a different custom animal mod that comes with AH support and meats already, but I can't find a list of what the different meat index numbers to use are anywhere in any of AH's files that are openable in Notepad++. I'm assuming that meat index 641 is chicken, because the mod author of one mod said their animals dropped that when butchered and that's the index number I found in their files, but I don't know the rest.
Do you have a list of meat indexes I could refer to, please?
EDIT: Some trawling through your community forum thread got me a list of item IDs I believe are what are used.
Hiya! Love this mod, hard to play without it as it feels like something the game should have already.
Just wanted to offer a small suggestion for immersion, one that ties in to a new event that was added in 1.6. BELOW IS A SPOILER:
Spoiler:
Show
During the Green Rain event, all of the TV channels stop working, they instead just display green static. In case Green Rain falls on a Friday, would it be possible for the meat-themed Queen of Sauce to also do the same? Not a big deal, but it would be nice for consistency and immersion
Hello, I am really enjoying this mod so far - you've clearly spent a lot of time making it and refining it, and it's a perfect addition to Stardew (particularly for players like me who prefer the ranching over the farming) - but I have a question; I'm trying to make a custom animal added by another mod into the .json file so that I can give them treats as well because I feel bad leaving them out when I'm giving the others treats... But I can't figure out how to.
Apologies if this is a rather dumb question, but I'm new to this sort of thing, and I'm struggling to figure it out - even with the folder showing how to lay things out in order to add custom animals. My smapi keeps saying it can't read what I've added and that it's not valid, and I'm not sure what else to try as I don't want to mess things up too much..
Any help/guidance would be much appreciated, although I completely understand if you're too busy :) Thank you for taking the time to read through this, and for making such an amazing mod!
You probably have a syntax error, this page can help you with those: https://smapi.io/json Use the format as none. If you still have problems finding your error, post the link here so I can take a look. If you want faster help with those kind of stuff, you can also find help in the Stardew Valley discord server. There are channels with people experience with modding that might help you.
Thank you very much for your help! Apparently it's the end bracket that's the issue, but I'm following the format I thought was correct, so I don't know what I should do to fix it.. https://smapi.io/json/none/a19437b2b854411ba64639c43ed5e65This is the link to the error, I'll try and find a video to help with the kind of error I'm dealing with, but any insight you could give me would be much appreciated :) Though what you've helped me with thus far has been really useful, so thank you!
CustomAnimals need to be a list, so it should star with [ and and with ]. Also, each animal object inside the list need to start with { and end with } Between those you need a Name property, with the animal name. So, it should look like this: https://smapi.io/json/none/af1880f1a63c4015b52032ac6792f9d8
Ahhh, thank you! That makes sense now - thank you so much for taking the time to help me out with this, I very much appreciate it :)) It's all working perfectly now, and I have a better idea of how to do these kinds of things for the future! You're an awesome modder, thank you for an amazing mod and being so quick to respond to my queries :D
Thank you so much for the magic option. I just started with the mod and its very fun, but I hate the idea of hurting animals. The magic exchange system is really cool :)
Hello, I really love this mod. I downloaded before I even got really into Stardew Valley (like, a total of 2-3 minutes of game time to start a save) I think it's important for these aspects of farming to be included in the game. I, however, have a question.
Where does one buy the meat cleaver? Is there a way to buy it?
I'm on Fall day 1 on the 1st year. I have 23 chickens and duck and I have not received my Feeding Basket. I tried to use add function but it doesn't add one.

Beef = 639,
Pork = 640,
Chicken = 641,
Duck = 642,
Rabbit = 643,
Mutton = 644
The list is missing ostrich though, since I think that thread is quite old. I'd appreciate getting the ID for ostrich meat if possible!

Thank you, have a nice day.
Thanks 🐮
do you have the required heart with Marnie?
do you received the other tools?
I don't have any hearts with marnie yet.
I only got the Meat wand tool.
Thanks
