DEV BLOG Sticky post with a running list of what I’m working on for the next update. Note this mod requires Custom Tokens (linked here), or it will not load. (This is for the quit smoking variation so he can quit smoking at the fair after the first year of marriage, if one condition requires Custom Tokens, it is required for the entire mod).

Frog Buddy: A little frog follows Sebby around!
I tried to test everything but obviously that's not possible, so let me know if anything looks odd or doesn't work!
Hello! I'm not sure whats wrong, but when i open the game and look at the social menu at first it shows the custom sprite for seb (red roots, frog pjs), but after a few moments it just reverts back to his vanilla sprite? (I didn't change anything in the config menu after loading my save.) And i'm also not seeing the portraits/any portraits at all when I speak to him? i'm not sure if it's that the mod isnt compatible with another mod I have? i do have a mod that changes Sam's portraits and sprites if that matters at all, but It isn't the seasonal cuter sprites mod (i don't have that one installed). Smapi and content patcher are up to date.
Edit: I tried removing the mod that alters Sam's appearence (sprites, portraits), and it still didn't work. Dunno if i'm sad it's still not working or happy that my sam mod isnt the issue so i can keep it LOL.
It sounds like a mod conflict, you can send me your SMAPI log and I'll check. If you have Seasonal Cuter installed, be sure to toggle Sebastian "off" in that mod.
Hi, it looks like your save file is corrupted, the game files were modified somehow and it's causing the mod to not load. You might need to start a fresh save, if you made any manual changes to your game files, this can happen. If you don't want to start a new save, SMAPI gives this site: https://smapi.io/reset-content for help fixing it.
I reverted my save back to the 2nd of summer (I was previously on summer 18), and i'm able to see his custom portraits now when I speak to him, but his sprite is still showing as his Vanilla one, do you have any idea why? I dont have the seasonal cuter mod installed.
I seem to be having the same issue as well if it isn't too much of a bother may I know what you did in order to get it to show his sprite?? just like you I can see his portraits but not his sprite even if I can make a new game file (I already checked for corrupted files and nothing popped up)
There is a new update on Content Patcher that might help, I'll be loading an update on this mod in a couple of days and that might resolve it as well, though it is running fine on my game at the moment.
You can send me your SMAPI log and I can take a look as well.
Hi! I love the new update, if I had one minor nitpick, it would be that Sebby's sprite doesn't have the beard when I select the beard option. It's just a little odd that the sprite doesn't have the beard but the portrait does.
Hi, my beloved modder! So love this mod and the immersive Sebas mod together they are chef's kiss ! but with the new update I have noticed two small problems and that is that when he is in pajamas (example now I am in summer so my husband goes through life shirtless and in shorts) but I can no longer see his frog slippers, it looks like he is wearing shoes over them and there is only a hint that there are cute slippers underneath. When an event is triggered and he is performing some action the sprite disappears and it's Sebas sprite default? hi old Sebas lol. I don't know if I'm the only one with this, so far I haven't noticed anything else, I just deleted the old file and placed this update in my mods folder. I tried to fix it (turn off turn on-delete reinstall same philosophy lol) and the slippers came back but after setting Sebas' appearance details they were gone again =( Any ideas Magg? You are free to tell me silly if the problem was caused by me and everything is perfect, I don't know what's going on.
After logging back into my game I unchecked the cuter option (like you said) and the famous frog slippers appeared, my husband looks pathetically cute again, sorry for the inconvenience Magg. I don't know if it's normal for that problem to happen but if it's not I'm glad I brought it up. Awesome mod as always! Edit: Well... you see, I'm dying of embarrassment but now I get a message in Smapi that says: [Content Patcher] Can't apply image patch "z1 Maggs Emo Sebastian Sprites > Dialogue (from data/overworld_sprites.json) > Summer Shirtless dynamic" to Characters/Sebastian: the FromFile file 'assets\sprites\short\midhair\gradient\Summer_shirtless.png' doesn't exist.
I don't even know if it's important, but it didn't appear before? You'll think I'm crazy, which is probably what's happening to me. The mods are so confusing to me.
This is actually really helpful, thanks! I'll take a look at the Seasonal Cuter overlay tomorrow and see if I can get that fixed and correct the code for the image. Luckily they should be easy fixes!
Love the new styles in this update! I can't wait to try them out in my save tonight. With the glasses and hair color options, now he looks like my irl spouse! <3
Hi, there! I just wanted to say how great of a job you have done with all of your mods. I hope you consider going back to give Sam dating events after marriage like you did with Sebastian.
Speaking of which, I might be in the minority, but is there any way to keep the beard portrait and sprites turned on? I never knew this until now, but Sebby with a beard is kind of cute :)
Hi! I do have plans to re-visit Sam at some point and add dating events for him as well. For the beards, there's currently no way to keep them on as an option. I might consider adding that in the update as an overlay, honestly, I get a lot of comments asking me to remove the beard event option entirely! So going forward, I might remove the event portraits and just have it as a toggle option.
hey!! i really like cowboys. and i love seb. so i knew this was the perfect mod when i saw it!! :) but i'm having a problem with seb's cowboy outfit. i toggled it on in the config, but it doesn't apply in-game. i don't have any other mods that would affect his sprite, and i made sure to toggle matching outfit portraits too. i'm not really sure why it's happening. the weirdest part is that for a little while it WAS working, and then it just stopped?? even though I didn't change anything in the config. also, the rest of the configs like the piercings and eyeliner all work so it's just cowboy mode. anyways again i really love this mod and its not really that much of a problem because his normal outfit and sprites is really nice too i just really like cowboys EDIT: interesting tidbit: if i close the game it tends to work for a little while after, but eventually he goes back to the regular sprite. Thought I should also add that in the relationship menu or whatever when you go to see what his gift tastes are his sprite reverts to his vanilla one.
I'm working on an update for this mod that might fix things, if it was working before and stopped, try updating SMAPI and Content Patcher, that has worked for other people. I should have the update done in a couple of weeks or so and I'm using different code so it will be more stable.
hello! i like your mod, it's really so cool n i enjoy playing with it, but i don't really understand how to change something when i open the files i see only something non-understandable is there anything where i can find how to deal with that?
Hi, install the Generic Mod Config Menu mod, and use that to select the settings. There are many options and this is the easiest way to make your selections.
Ahhh, thank you so much! :) I know you must be busy as heck editing existing mods, so much appreciated for the consideration! All your work is so incredibly detailed and spectacular. Out here doing the lords work, honestly.
