Hi,
This is my first attempt at modding, and I am trying to make a Steven Universe themed mod to change some of the characters, buildings, and items to be Steven Universe-themed. So far, I have just tried changing one of the hairstyles, but I am not seeing the changes in the game. Would someone be able to let me know where I am going wrong? I am using SMAPI, ContentPatcher, and StardewXnbHack. I have unpacked the all the content files, made a copy of hairstyle.png, and moved it to the folder I created named "(CP) Steven Universe." Is that where I went wrong? should I have edited the original and moved that into my mod folder instead? I edited hairstyle.png directly from "(CP) Steven Universe", then launched the game. My content.json is as follows.
{
"Format": "2.5.0",
"Changes": [
{
"Action": "Load",
"Target": "Farmer/farmer_girl_base",
"FromFile": "farmer_girl_base.png"
},
{
"Action": "Load",
"Target": "Farmer/hairstyles",
"FromFile": "hairstyles.png"
}
]
}
I only made changes to hairstyle 4 (and only the back view). I've launched the game, and started a new game to get to the character creation to see if the hairstyle change took. All I am seeing are the original versions of hairstyle 4. I am not seeing any errors in Terminal indicating that anything has gone wrong, but I am happy to copy-paste that if it is helpful. Feel free to ignore the farm_girl_base stuff, I tried to make some changes there (that I am also not seeing), but I'm not done playing around with that yet.
The relevant file path is as follows:
/Users/admin/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOS/Mods/[CP] StevenUniverse/hairstyles.png
manifest.json & content.json are also in the "(CP) Steven Universe" folder.
I am using this tutorial, in case that is helpful.
edit: indentations aren't applying here, but they should be accurate in my .json.
