Question Where is information about ores like smelting time, bar per ores,... written on xnb files?

[takisama]

I tried to make some changes on the xnb files game but I couldn't find where ores information are. I search on GG for hours but it didn't help much. Anybody knows where it is located? Thanks a lot!

This is not in an xnb file.

This is hardcoded into Object::performObjectDropInAction, starting from a line where this.name.Equals("Furnace")

else if (this.name.Equals("Furnace"))

So basically we couldn't do anything to change this except using mods right?
Btw, is this code decompiled or it is public somewhere? And is there a way that I can edit this but don't use mod. I am a web developer and could use C# well.

See here and here for info on getting started with a SMAPI mod and decompiling the game.

(Keep in mind that even if what you were looking for was stored in the XNB files, overwriting the vanilla files is the worst way of modding there is.)
