Hi! Prefacing this with an obligatory "I have no idea what I'm doing and am generally intimidated by coding things."
What I'm trying to accomplish: make my baby blue. that's it. I'm doing a fantasy playthrough and want to give my baby/toddler blue skin.
I found a mod that I think would have given me the ability to use a HEX code editor on them (rather than just adding a few additional skin tone options like most mods, which are all just natural colors of course), but it looks like it's been abandoned. (Mod is "Genetic API" by agent56, and hasn't had activity since 2023 https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/15655)
So...what are my options here? Obviously, if someone out there knows of a mod that already exists that could do this for me, that would be amazing and I would love you forever.
But this is so important to me that I am willing to attempt to make my own mod, provided I have...ample guidance lol. I imagine editing a baby/toddler sprite works differently than editing the farmer's, not that I know how to do that either, but people have done it before, so...surely it'll be...easy peasy...surely...
TLDR can somebody please help me get started making a baby skin tone customizer, either pointing me in the right direction for tutorials, or explaining to me in 5-year-old terms what I should even be looking for to make this reality?
thank you all so much in advance and I hope this is even the right place to post such an ask lol
