Curious about the mods I use whenever I play Stardew Valley? Here's the master list! I have two different save files with two different farm themes. One on my personal save file on "Thistles Farm", and another on "Over Yonder" farm with @cozygames!
(Interface mod: Overgrown Flowery Interface)
Mods from "Thistles Farm"
Welcome to Thistles's Farm! The furthest I've gotten in this save file was year 6, and around year 3, I decided to add some more practical and functional mods. Below you will see a list of all of my aesthetic mods as well as my gameplay mods that have saved me a lot of time and energy in Stardew!
Aesthetic mods:
Aesthetic building options thatinclude: houses, barns, coops, multiplayer cabins, slime hutch, well, obelisks, gold clock, silo, shed, Shane's chicken coop, mill, fish pond, and the big shed.
2. Daisy Niko's Earthy Recolour
Recolor Stardew Valley to create a warm, earth-toned look that's easy on the eyes
3. Seasonal Outdoor Fences
More aesthetic fences that replace the old fences!
4. Pet Bowl Recolor
Creates a more earthy color for the pet area
5. Gwen's Paths
Replaces paths with more aesthetic stone and wooden paths
6. More Grass
Cause I always want more grass!
7. Industrial Kitchen Interior
Cute kitchen interior!
8. Coii's Girls Set Pack
Cuter clothes and hairstyles
9. Hats Won't Mess Up Hair
Cause I wanna look cute AND wear my hats
10. Better Artisan Goods icons
This mod makes jelly, pickles, wine, juice, and honey icons be based on the fruit, vegetable, or flower used to make them. Easily tell at a glance what types of wine, jelly, etc you have in your inventory!
11. Vanilla tweaks- farming edition
Gives various farming crops & icons a lil' more spice (;
12. Chest Deco
Turning chests into barrel, crates, rack, etc using Alternative Textures
Gameplay mods:
Super helpful especially in year 1 and 2 when you need more energy.
2. Skull Cavern Elevator
Get that Iridium! The Skull Cavern is never ending- this mod is necessary IMO.
3. Save Anywhere
Cause I wanna be able to save anywhere GDI
4. Automatic Gates
Cause I'm tired of opening and closing the gates on myself...
5. Automate
Place a chest next to a machine (like a furnace or crystalarium), and the machine will automatically pull raw items from the chest and push processed items into it. Connect multiple machines with a chest to link them.
6. Look Up Anything
One of my favorite mods, it's a life saver! See live info about whatever's under your cursor when you press F1. Learn a villager's favourite gifts, when a crop will be ready to harvest, how long a fence will last, why your farm animals are unhappy, and more.
7. Generic Mod Config Menu
Adds an in-game UI to edit other mods' config options.
For all your tiny greenhouse needs- I use it for coffee plants!
Tired of clicking the wrong place when tending to your animals? This mod helps with that, and it also shows you which animals need attention!
BASE MODS NEEDED: Content Patcher and SMAPI
MOD MANAGER: I use Vortex to manage all my mods, because I can easily make mod profiles for one game, and I can also easily switch between multiple games I play! If you only mod Stardew Valley, community members have reccomended Stardrop.
