HOW TO GET IT WORKING: Okay apologies but this new system, despite having many advantages, is a little trickier to get working. Basically, Seasonality generates a config file first time it's run. This has a setting in it that tells the mod to run the 'default' folder. You need to change this to 'WillybachHD'.
## Set the root folder to register textures [Synced with Server] # Setting type: String # Default value: Default Texture Folder = WillybachHD
If you install my HD Seasonality mod on top of Rusty's Seasonality, and then run Seasonality for the FIRST time, it will overwrite my config file. So you will need to manually change this setting again.
I also recommend turning off Random Colors in fall.
[Fall]
## If on, random colors are applied to targeted prefabs [Synced with Server] # Setting type: Toggle # Default value: On # Acceptable values: On, Off Random Colors = Off
If this is designed for the latest version on the Thunderstore (RustyMods-Seasonality), where can I get installation instructions on how to install the mods manually?
I am currently using the Willybach's HD (higher) mod, it works great.
I downloaded the following: "RustyMods-Seasonality-3.4.8" and "RustyMods-SeasonalityTextures-1.0.1". But I have not installed them yet.
This is where the confusion is:
#1 - There is an "icon, manifest.json, readme.md, and Seasonality.dll" file in the RustyMods-Seasonality-3.4.8 folder, I don't know where some of these files go.
#2 - The RustyMods-SeasonalityTextures-1.0.1 folder has another "config" folder and an "icon, manifest.json, and readme.md" file, where do these files go? The "config" file has a "Seasonality" folder in it. Where does this folder go? In the Seasonality folder, there is 5 more folders: "Armors, Creatures, Pickables, Pieces and Textures"....where do these go?
With all of that, the Willybach's HD Seasonality downloads need to go somewhere as well, I haven't looked into that yet. I've googled for installation instructions and do not really see anything specific. There is a mention that some help might be found on the OdinPlus discord channel, but I can't seem to find that channel.
Is there any chance your mods could be on the Thunderstore for easier use?
The ice texture on the oceans are bad and reflect or show objects at the bottom in an odd way, pls fix this. I think it has to do with normals of the texture or something...
This is just the HD files for the main mod, 'Seasonality'. Rusty is the mod author and he tweaks the code. It is highly configurable though, I think you can make most weathers effect the player.
I am also having this problem, I downloaded the mod and it is beautiful but I'm noticing a lot of tree and grass pop in (trees are green until I walk close then they turn red for autumn etc).
im a little confused why this points to offsite mods for risk of rain but surely this is the mod you mean we need? https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/5
WillyBach, How do you get the roof tops to show snow? Mine do not, ive reinstalled this mod multiple times, also how do you freeze water on winter?? in config i have this
## If on, plugin freezes water during winter [Synced with Server] # Setting type: Toggle # Default value: Off # Acceptable values: Off, On 7 - Winter Freezes Water = On
in the RustySeasonality.cfg file, i have installed the HD texture pack over his as well, and still i don't get different roofing color variants, winter or that nice green in summer.
But biggest pet peeve is freezing the water / ocean / lakes, what other setting on why it is not working?
And inside the config > seasonality folder, i added screenshot what i have in there to see if this is correct?
Yeah the problem isn’t with Seasonalty sadly, it’s other mods. Custom Texture mod prevents some things, also my HD additions add on. Perhaps don’t use those. But the roofs should change. are you sure the roofs are inside the pieces folder? I have had a couple of problems with Seasonality in the past, and I fixed it by deleting All seasonality files including the YML files, loading the game on seasonality, saving then adding the mod back in. Worked fine after that.
yes all roof textures inside as shows in pieces, everything where it should be, i dont use other mods besides the flag texture mod. as far as seasons or textures goes, i have epicloot and farming mod but thats it.
I cleared out the seasonality folder, and started it, saved it then put in WillyHD back in and still nothing. What else can i do to fix this? I also have SeasonalTweaks Installed, would this cause issues with the roofs?
Hey i just might of figured it out, or unless its a bug, Is the snow portion BIOME specific? i went to a snow mountain area and built a tiny roof and house and now i have snow there, but just normal seasonality when it changes seasons anywhere else outside and off the snow location there is no snow on the roof.
Just want to confirm with you if this is how it suppose to be snow biome specific for the roof textures to work.
Then it’s another mod conflicting. For me all the roofs turn white in winter. Well, they did last time I checked. Perhaps the latest update of Seasonality has changed something. I’ll test it myself this weekend.

you wouldn't need this because the other seasons mod recolours the original textures instead

Inside Seasonality Folder
are you sure the roofs are inside the pieces folder? I have had a couple of problems with Seasonality in the past, and I fixed it by deleting All seasonality files including the YML files, loading the game on seasonality, saving then adding the mod back in. Worked fine after that.

What it looks like.
Just want to confirm with you if this is how it suppose to be snow biome specific for the roof textures to work.
