Portraited Changing Skies - Beta

Overview

Changes the portrait backgrounds according to the current weather and time without changing the vanilla portrait frame. This is an alternative version of Changing Skies, originally made by Doragoun.

Differently from Changing Skies, Portraited Changing Skies only makes changes to the portrait frame background. This means there are no new designs for dialogue box borders with rounded corners and colors that match the current weather. If you want these features, I recommend downloading the original mod.

This version was created for those who, like me, prefer to maintain the vanilla feel of the interface, with minimal changes and additions.

This is my first mod (and it was also my first attempt at creating pixel art), so please let me know if you encounter any bugs. Additionally, I hope to release compatibility patches for other mods if necessary.

Besides of course having everything portraited, the mod also includes:

- Backgrounds for all weather types (Including windy days).

- Backgrounds for day and night times (Soon sunset and sunrise too!).

- Backgrounds for some interiors (Currently sewers, qi, mines and indoors).

- Multiple recolors support (More to be added).

Doragoun for helping me through this process, I recommend everyone to check their profile for other amazing mods!
Aerinanxiety for speeding up half of all the work with the Overgrown Flowery Interface compatibility!

Mythiq.net hosts no files for it. The download button goes straight to the release file on edge.forgecdn.net, so you are downloading from the author's own host, not from a copy of ours.

The download count, rating and comments on this page start at zero and count Mythiq.net only. The source's own figures are not copied here — they measure a different site, and a number that cannot be checked against our own ledger is not worth printing.

SMAPI

This is a SMAPI mod, not a loose content file. SMAPI — the Stardew Modding API, from smapi.io — must be installed first, and the game started through it. Without it the folder sits in Mods and nothing loads.

GAME VERSION

Built against Stardew Valley 1.6.5, 1.6.6, 1.6.7, 1.6.2, 1.6.9, 1.6.1. SMAPI mods usually survive minor game patches, but a mod built for 1.6 will not load on 1.5.

DEPENDENCIES

Many mods require a framework mod as well — Content Patcher above all, sometimes SpaceCore or Json Assets. SMAPI prints the exact missing name at launch; a red error naming a dependency is the usual reason a freshly installed mod does nothing.

Installation

1. Download the archive with the button on this page and unzip it.

2. Move the mod's folder into your Mods directory:

Windows — %AppData%\StardewValley\Mods

macOS — ~/Library/Application Support/StardewValley/Contents/MacOS/Mods

Linux — ~/.config/StardewValley/Mods

3. Start the game through SMAPI, not the normal launcher. SMAPI lists every mod it loaded at startup — check yours is there and did not print an error.

UPDATING

Delete the old folder before unzipping the new one. Two copies of a mod is the classic cause of duplicate items and crashes, and unzipping over the top keeps stale files the new version no longer expects.

This release downloads from edge.forgecdn.net, not from us, so there is no checksum to compare against. Scan the archive before you unpack it.
