Hello there! Me and my gf just started to use this mod so that we could have fancy colorful fields but without completely filling our inventories with 200 hues of every flower. Just 4 versions of poppy... 1 color with 4 qualities, no matter what color they are out in the field.
It seems however, that this mod is doing the exact opposite for us. All the flowers outside in the fields are just 1 single color. And in our inventories they are still the tons of variations of colors and fill up the bag pretty quick.
1) The flowers in the fields are all one color It sounds like the Alternative Textures part of the mod isnt working, maybe because you don't have Alternative Textures installed or installed the mod incorrectly. If you can't figure it out, feel free to show me your log with https://smapi.io/log/ so that I can see the mods you have installed and any error messages.
2) In the inventories they are still lots of different colors For any items and plants that were existing when this mod was installed, they will still produce different colors. That means if you had a flower field planted, then installed the mod, after you harvest that first crop, the colors will have variation just like vanilla. However, the mod will work for any flower that is planted newly after installing the mod.
I'm so excited to install this and try it out! The inventory management alone is SO worth it! Not to mention, the very pretty colors that aren't too far removed from fitting with the base game <3 Very well done!
I know you said that you would not be adding compatibility with other mods due to art rights, which is SO valid. Feel free to stop reading here; I know when people ignore my notes I get mad. BUT I saw that you're potentially adding compat for cornucopia in the future! I'm very excited about that! And... so I have to at least bring it up, but feel free to disregard because I DID read your note and respect it if you don't want to mess with it lmao. BUT if you were ever inclined to consider it... Wildflour's mods that add flowers like the Atelier Goods and such could REALLY benefit from this! So many flowers were added, and flower products, and it would be a huge quality of life thing if we could choose to implement this for our modded flowers! There's nothing sadder than trying to get 5 of one color of flower all season long so you can make an artisan good, and just NOT getting what you need :') So yeah. Just a wish from a hopeful fellow modder who absolutely respects it if you stick with your decision not to expand.
Anyway, thank you for this mod as it is! It's already a huge qol must have for me for all future playthroughs, and I haven't even launched the game with it yet xD Looking forward to being so much less frustrated with my pockets!
1) I won't because of art rights, which is exactly what my note says in the description. The only reason it says I'll do it for Cornucopia is because I MADE Cornucopia.
and 2) WAG doesn't even have colored flowers, so whatever you're asking for, it's the wrong thing.
If you like the idea of my mod, you're welcome to make your own version to cover the modded flowers that you want to play with. But I won't do it, so please don't ask.
Ok not only all the flowers look so much better but this feature to make all flowers players pickup the same color is a must have for me, I hated getting my inventory filled every time I went picking up flowers. I wonder if this feature works for mods that makes flowers generate on the map like Wild Flowers. anyway, thank you so much for this!!!
I don't know anything about how Wild Flowers works O_O But maybe it will affect that too? Because I remove all the color data from the crop itself, there may not be any colors for Wild Flowers to choose from. Let me know if you find out!
Wow, this mod is like the exact opposite of 90% of similar mods - usually it's all desaturated this, toned down that... Nice to see a diversity of opinions =b

What are we possibly doing wrong here?

I hope that helps :)
