Modding Discussion Migrating XNB mods to Content Patcher packs

Thank you very much

 

nm its done

 

I'm trying to convert https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2089 but I have admittedly little experience with modding, and I've never used CP even for personal use. Could someone take a look at this for me?

 

Hi everyone!
I just tried CP for Eemie's Medieval farm buildings, but I'm getting the error "it doesn't have a manifest". I downloaded the one linked in the wiki.
Has this been uploaded again to fix that?

Thanks so much!

 

@khajiitibard : You are missing some brackets but otherwise it looks fine. Also, I would suggest using a Format designation of 1.3 since you aren't using any of the features from newer versions and 1.5 would require people to be running the beta. Try the version in the spoiler below (also posted to hastebin if that is easier)

Code:

{
    "Format": "1.3",
    "Changes": [
        {
            "Action": "EditData",
            "Target": "Characters/Dialogue/Penny",
            "Entries": {
            "event_mail2": "Oh... I just wanted to help.$s#$b#I'm sorry, Mr. Mullner. I didn't mean to upset you.$s",
            "event_mail3": "Oh... I guess you're right.$u#$b#I'm sorry, Mr. Mullner. It was rude, what I did.$s",
            "event_mail4": "I see."
            },
        },
        {   
            "Action": "EditData",
            "Target": "Data/Events/Town",
            "Entries": {

I did a few more conversions, mostly for Shane stuff. Also someone posted a conversion of Stardew Lottery Letters, but it used load instead of editdata, so it conflicted with other mods I use. I changed it to use editdata instead. I'll alert the mod authors and let them know. Also please note that in the case of the Better Married Shane conversions, I only did Shane's marriage dialogue, and not every other villager like the original mod includes. (Too much work!)

 

@Pookachu_

I found this mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2110 that is a content patcher version of all Hudson buildings, including the clock you wanted.

 

thanks i found the cp for it under "gold clock" if anyone else is looking for just the clock

 

There is a CP version for Vintage Elliot already on the mod’s page I’m pretty sure.

 

Can I request for the slightly shorter grass mod to be converted?

OK, I posted that edit of Stardew Lottery Letters, but in my own save file I still got the unaltered letter from mom. Would someone be able to take a look at my content file and see if I did something wrong? SMAPI seems to load it without issue, it just doesn't seem to actually make the change.

Edit: the file is on my other post 8 posts up.

 

Your target includes the Content directory, and it should not. Instead just use "Data/mail". Also, one of the entries (mom2) has a "\n" and some extra whitespace at the front that can be removed.

 

Great, thank you! I actually saw that \n formatting thing in both the original mod's xnb and the most recent mail.xnb when I unpacked it to check, so I left it in just for safety's sake. I'll make that change and update my uploaded file. I appreciate it!

Edit: works like a charm. Thanks again.

 

I tried searching to see if this has already been made into a [cp] and didn't find anything but a ton of siv's marriage stuff......

if someone has time I would love to have this back https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1454

thanks!

 

Would anybody be willing to convert the mod I made for content patcher? I've attempted to do it myself but I am a little tech illiterate and cannot make sense of anything lol. Thanks!

 

Here you go.

 

The slime hutch doesn't exist it appears as a well. Do you have a bugfix for that? Because I'm pretty sure the slime hutch isn't supposed to look like this.

There is a mistake in their content.json that loads the well image instead of the slime hutch. I corrected the line that needed it, but had to zip the file to post it here:

 

Could you please look into fixing the CP Version of Vintage Elliot too. I believe I would get the same error as Setara.

 

I just tried the Vintage Elliot and it loads correctly. I went down to the beach and talked to Elliot to verify that both the sprite and portrait were working correctly.
