Hello, everyone! Welcome to the Machine Evolution System developer blog. Today, April 18th, I have got two things to announce.
Machine Evolution System 1.0 has been released!
Finally! After six months of hard work, Machine Evolution System 1.0 is here. I hope you have a ton of fun with it. If you enjoy the mod, please consider leaving an endorsement — it really helps! <3
Machine Progression System 3.0 has been released!
Over the last three months, I’ve tirelessly rebuilt Machine Progression System from the ground up. It’s now fully configurable through Generic Mod Config Menu — almost everything can be tweaked to your liking! I’ve also added over 50 new items. Make sure to read the mod page again to discover all the amazing new features MPS has to offer.
Feel free to leave any feedback, comments, or suggestions — I’m always around and happy to help! <3
Hi there ! I noticed there was two lines missing on the
French translation, on both MES and MPS. So here’s the four culprits. And shoutout to Failsyst3m for his work on translation (and you of course, for this awesome mod). :)

MPS has always been one of my favorite mods, and now MES is my absolute favorite. Thank you for creating such great mods! I have just one small question: Does the forage box produce items or collect them? If I put them together with the deluxe autograbber, will they... um, compete? I mean, will they both collect items from the same location and each hold a portion? I'm not a native English speaker, so I hope I've made myself clear. I'm sorry if there are any mistakes.
Hey there! Like with MPS, this is a favorite mod of mine as well!
I'm just having an issue with the Prismatic version of the Mysterious Bookshelf - it seems to only produce skill books on my end, which contradicts the description? Here is a Lookup screenshot:
For comparison, a Radioactive Mysterious Bookshelf:
I don't know if it's just on my end like a config issue (I always delete existing mod folders before update), this might be worth looking into?
Head over to: "Mods\Machine Evolution System\[CP] Machine Evolution System\Machines\MysteriousBookshelf.json"
at Line 426 and 836, add/replace it with this: "PerItemCondition": "ANY \"ITEM_CATEGORY Target -103\" \"ITEM_CATEGORY Target -102\", !ITEM_CONTEXT_TAG Target mysterious_bookshelf_banned", The error occurs due to category -103 (the default P.M.S) only covering the skill books. Adding category -102 will cover all other books.
It really do it job on RSV's forest area but It gather all the forage item from entire game and all season. Can you fix it to gather only item that respond to the season please.
Also when I place Harvester at beach extension form https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/11594, it also collect item but not the beach item one. Its collect many forage item and from many season too.
About the machine upgrade item, What would you and the fans say is an appropriate (and challenging) amount of bar for the upgrade? I recall the amount is configurable in the config setting, right?
Small update idea: add a description in the config file when setting the amount of bar required to say what is the recommended and the challenging amount.
I know by default it's set to 1 and I think you offered the suggestion to let the player adjust how much they'd like, but having a basis would be appreciated.
Update: the price does not match the ingredient, an iridium bar is normally 1000g (or 1500g with blacksmith, but walk of life changes how blacksmith works). So a bar worth 1000g when transformed is now worth 1500g when an iridium upgrade is crafted?
Hello there! Everything related to the upgrade system is handled by Machine Upgrade System, tlitookilakin's mod. You should leave this message over there :)
Your mod is incredibly detailed and greatly enriches my game! Thank you so much. However, I just wanted to let you know that I’m getting a SMAPI error message:

Hello there! The issue is occurring because you're using the config.json file from a previous version. In version 1.0.6, some configuration options were removed, which is why you're seeing these errors. You can fix this by either deleting the config.json file so a new one can be generated, or by manually editing the file to remove the old values mentioned above :)

These errors occurred during the first launch after the update.
Hello there! I forgot to remove some things from the Chinese translation. Update Machine Evolution System to 1.0.6 and Machine Progression System to 3.0.4 - they should correct these issues :)
Also, delete the config.json file, you need to create a new one (or edit/remove those values yourself).
2 - As far as i noticed the geode thing (where you give bombs and it gives you resources) its a bit buggy with automate (its slow when placing the items in chests and taking the bomb, dont know if its itentional but I wanted to let you know in case of any bugs)
P.S - Sorry for any error spelling mistakes, English is not my first language
Hello there! I'm glad to hear you're having fun with the mod!
I assume the Overflowing Geode takes a bit longer to process with Automate because it can drop multiple items. It's not the same for Automate to move a single item into a chest as it is to move five or more — that naturally requires more work. However, Automate's behavior is stable and won't cause any issues :)
