RELEASED [SMAPI] CustomNPC

Looks like a bug, I'll look into it when I bring CNPC over to SDV 1.3. For now you should be fine by adding an animations file, even if you don't need it.

 

In all mods i've updated for SDV 1.3 so far I managed to incorporate MP, and I intent to do the same with CNPC, but this promises to be the most challenging.

 

Thanks for all of your previous help! but I have a new error.
Whenever I try to enter a warp that I've made I get this error:
[SMAPI] An error occurred in the base update loop: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at StardewValley.Game1.warpFarmer(GameLocation locationAfterWarp, Int32 tileX, Int32 tileY, Int32 facingDirectionAfterWarp, Boolean isStructure)

This is my code for it:
"buildings":
[
{
"map":"shack.tbin",
"location":"Beach",
"position": [30,12],
}
],
"rooms":
[
{
"name":"Main",
"map":"house.tbin",
}
],
"warps":
[
{
"mapEntry": "Beach",
"mapExit": "house",
"entry": [31,14],
"exit": [7,29],
},
],

 

I think mapExit would need to be "Main" in this case, try and let me know if that fixes it.

 

It works! Thank you so much for all the help you have given me.

 

can you use a date for the precondition of mail? because when I try to it says:
[Custom NPC] Mod crashed when editing asset 'Data\mail', which may cause errors in-game. Error details:

or is it something else i'm doing. Thank you so much for all the help you have given me.

 

Never mind, I've figured it out. You can directly input the preference behind their flavor texts. There's not even a need to fill in the value in main template.

 

Hello! I've been trying to make an NPC with this template however whenever I try to test it I always end up with this error:

[SMAPI] Custom NPC failed on entry and might not work correctly. Technical details:
StardewModdingAPI.Framework.Exceptions.SContentLoadException: Custom NPC failed loading content asset 'Npcs\.vs\portrait.png' from ModFolder: there's no matching file at path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods\CustomNPC\Npcs\.vs\portrait.png'..

I tried moving files around, however new errors just show up in its place. So I'm stumped; I think I need to change a file path..? How would I go about doing that? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advanced!

 

just found this mod but now its apparently out of date. is it retired or will there be any updates?

 

Not sure about the status of this mod, @ToastedOreos, but if you're just looking to implement an NPC instead of specifically using this mod you should check out how to create one using Content Patcher.
