Stardew Valley Original Sprites Download
Stardew Valley doesn't have official Steam Workshop support, but its modding community has absolutely blossomed since it released in 2016. There are thousands of mods out there that do everything from changing what your animals look like, to making fishing easier, to adding items and adjusting game balance. We've completely overhauled our guide to the best Stardew Valley mods that change how the game looks and make farm life more convenient.
- Got bored of original characters in Stardew Valley? In that case, character modifications is a must-have improvement in a game with highly enhanced social possibilities. As all characters have very different personalities, you can easily change their looks as you wish.
- Haley is one of the Villagers in Stardew Valley.She is one of the twelve available partners for Marriage. She loves taking photos with her camera and keeping up to date with all the latest fashion trends.
- For a detailed breakdown of changes specific to console versions of the game see Console Version History. Stardew Valley 1.3.28 was posted to the beta channel on August 10, 2018 and to the main channel on August 14, 2018. Tweaked several seed packet sprites. Qi dialogue portrait.
That means all you need to do to install them is download the modified XNB, find the corresponding XNB file in the Stardew Valley 'Content' folder—default location is 'C: Steam steamapps common.
Most of these mods were found either on the official Stardew Valley Mod forum or at the game's Nexus Mods page, both of which are getting more amazing mods everyday.
An important thing to note before jumping in is that Stardew Valley is still actively getting updates. Since there isn't any official mod support (yet) there's a chance that mods will break or need to be reinstalled after updates, so it's smart to back-up any files you are going to modify in case you need to revert the changes. And back up your save data just to be safe. It can be found by default at C:Users[USERNAME]AppDataRoamingStardewValleySaves.

How to install Stardew Valley mods
Most of these mods are simple modifications to the game's XNB files. That means all you need to do to install them is download the modified XNB, find the corresponding XNB file in the Stardew Valley 'Content' folder—default location is 'C:SteamsteamappscommonStardew ValleyContent', and the XNB you are looking for may be in a subfolder within the 'Content' folder—and then replace the original XNB with the one you downloaded. Though, like I said, you should make a back-up of the original in case you want to remove the mod.
Stardew Modding API (SMAPI)
Mods that make more complex changes may require the 'Stardew Modding API', or SMAPI for short. This is a community-made API that is frequently being updated and allows you to use DLL mods. It's a slightly bigger hassle to install these mods than the XNB ones—as you first need to install SMAPI and then download DLL mods to place into SMAPI's mod folder—but it also allows those mods to make much deeper changes to the game. You can download SMAPI on the Stardew Valley modding forum, and I'll be sure to mark which mods require it to be used.
Stardew Valley ModManager (SDVMM)
There's also a great community-made ModManager tool created by modder yuuki called SDVMM. This will help you install and update SMAPI, as well as keep track of all of your mods. It allows you to easily activate and deactivate specific mods without having to remove the files completely, giving you more flexibility if you want to try something on this list out but potentially not keep the mod forever.
Stardew Valley Content Patcher
Many of the most current Stardew Valley mods are compatible with Content Patcher, a tool which loads a whole host of mods without changing the XNB files, making install and uninstall easier, as well as reducing the likelihood of conflicts between mods. Content Patcher can be unzipped into Stardew Valley's 'mods' folder in the same location dictated above. You can then run Stardew Valley with SMAPI.
Now then, let's get to the mods!
BUILDING TEXTURES
Ali's Overgrown Fairy Buildings
Fairies aren't going to be to everyone's personal taste, but the Overgrown Fairy Buildings mod is too nicely done not to include in our list. It retextures all of your farm buildings to be pink and white, as well as being covered in vines and flowers. It's an adorable way to personalize your farm, and I especially like the Slime Hutch being transformed from a castle into a sweet little cottage with a flower garden. And if you're into flowers, you may want to pair this with Ali's Flower Grass which turns all the long grass on your farm into vibrant wildflowers. Ali also has a Modern Farm Buildings mod, if you like this modders style but aren't exactly into adorable ivy-covered farmhouses.
Bathhouse Hot Spring
The bathhouse north of Pelican Town where you can refresh your energy is handy, but the ambient whir of exhaust fans always feels just a little out of place in the idyllic valley. The Bathhouse Hot Spring mod turns the old bathhouse into a beautiful hotspring complete with the gentle sound of running water. The original mod hasn't been updated since 2017, so another modder has uploaded a version of Bathhouse Hot Spring that's compatible with the Content Patcher mod manager.
No Spouse Rooms
Deciding who to pursue as a spouse is an important part of every new farm I start. While I love all of Stardew's beaus and belles, I'm always a bit disappointed when my sweetheart moves in and totally trashes the aesthetic of my house with their own weird hobby room. As modder Lydocia says, 'Was my house not good enough for you?' No Spouse Rooms solves this problem by removing the extra room added by your partner when they move in. Marriage is all about compromise, apparently, but the sanctity of my decor isn't an area where I'm willing to meet in the middle.
Modern Gothic Interior
Speaking of decor, modder Coldazrael's Modern Gothic Interior reskins a bunch of interior furniture with dark wood and stark white fabrics. If you've worn out the possibilities of Stardew's vanilla furniture, the Gothic furniture brings a whole new vibe.
Seasonal Victorian Buildings
Seasonal Victorian Buildings is another very extensive visual mod for giving your farm a whole new look. Modder Eemie really went the extra mile by creating seasonal versions of each building, meaning that these Victorian structures fit right in with the word all year round.
PORTRAITS AND CHARACTER SPRITES
Hi-Res DCBerger Portraits
My own favorite portrait mod is the Hi-Res DCBerger Portraits, an update to stylized low-res portraits by modder DCBerger that are no longer available on Nexus. DCBerger's reimagined character portraits give all of Stardew's characters a more angular and slightly masculine look. Modder Ra has updated the DCBerger's portraits in higher resolution, meaning you'll need the Portraiture mod which allows for character portraits of higher resolution than the vanilla version of Stardew Valley.
Gigi's Hi-Res Portraits Mod
For a totally different feel, Gigi's Hi-Res Portraits turn characters into colorful anime portraits that feel a bit like Pokemon and One Piece had an affair. They're a fun take of several characters. Harvey in particular makes out like a bandit by going from dork mustache man to verified senpai. Remember to download the Portraiture mod for this one as well!
Stardew Anime Mods
Stardew Anime Mods is one of the most popular portrait mods for Stardew, for good reason. Its detailed and brightly colored pixel work fits in great with vanilla Stardew Valley. Unfortunately, it mostly just includes portraits for the young women of Stardew Valley, meaning that the bachelors will all look just a little less sparkly in comparison.
Monster Valley
Games about dating monsters and swords and birds have worked their way into gaming mainstream over the last year and Monster Valley carries in their freaky footsteps. 'Ever wanted to date a demon? Seduce a slime girl? Marry a merman?' Asks modder Blizzriel. 'Well, now you can!' Monster Valley changes both the portraits and sprites of Pelican Town's most eligible and their families into spooky alternatives. Sebastian and Robin become demons, while Maru and Demetrius are patchwork dolls. Elliott, of course, is a merman.
Coii's Hair Sets Pack
Coii's Hair Sets Pack adds a bunch of new hair styles to choose for your farmer, both long and short varieties. From elegant braids and bows to stylish slick-backs, there's more than enough to choose from even for a picky character creator like me.
Elle's Cat Replacements
Another wealth of choice is Elle's Cat Replacements which can turn your farm cat into anything from a calico to a tortoiseshell and everything in between. Elle has made a number of animal replacement mods, including Dog Replacements, New Horses, and several others.
Cuter Fatter Cows
Cuter Fatter Cows turns Stardew Valley's bovines into plumper versions with rosy cheeks meant to look like the cows of Harvest Moon. A number of modders have created new animal sprites but these are by far my favorite. Modder Identitypollution has recently released an update to Cuter Fatter Cows which includes all of their cuter and fatter animal retextures.
Horse Bear
Stardew Valley Sprite Editor
The Horse Bear mod turns your useful steed into a grizzly bear. I like bears, which makes this a good mod. There are actually several mods for turning your horse into a bear, but this one is my favorite. I guess modders like bears too.
Horse Boys
Horse Boys lets you turn your horse into one of Stardew Valley's bachelors. They look pretty horrifying galloping around on all fours and I really don't want to get into the implications of riding your spouse (or someone other than your spouse) around town. This mod is the kind of weird that toes the line of outright messed up without quite crossing it, which I can respect. For more horrifying and uncanny villagers, try PamCrow. It is exactly what you think.
The Pinkpocalypse
I should not be shocked by the number of mods that specifically turn various elements of Stardew Valley into cotton-candy pink. To start with, turn all of Stardew's dialogue boxes and inventory screens pink with The Pink Interface. Follow that up with Cute Valley Pink and More Buildings for Cute Valley which together pink-ify all of your farms buildings, interiors, tools, and machines. Do you want pink sheep? Of course you do. Why have scarecrows when you can have a bunch of adorable catcrows instead?
As Summer informs the brokers that Rick C-137 continues to be captured, the brokers dispatch a Rick Council Seal Staff to assassinate Rick c 137, and Morty and Summer are captured. In the the next kangaroo courtroom a board the Citadel of Ricks, equally Summer and Morty communicate out contrary to the council in Rick C 137 protection, and Morty unveils that he never quit on Rick and was just seeking to safeguard his sister from your dangers of existence with Rick involved. Rick and morty season 3 episode 3 download. As soon as they ruin and arrive Conroy, Morty describes to Summer supper this-world is evidence that Rick doesn't worry about anybody, particularly his family over. Unhappy with their present way of existence, Summer decides to conserve Rick, and digs up the gun alongside his own -dimension corpse.

UTILITY MODS
Mod Update Menu
The Mod Update Menu is a handy tool accessible from the start menu that lets you know if you need to update any of your mods or SMAPI (that required tool for modding Stardew you've installed). If you'll be installing more than a couple mods, the update menu is a great way to keep your ducks in a row.
UI Info Suite
There's a lot to keep track of on the farm and sometimes you just can't remember when you planted your cauliflower or whether or not you pet your sheep this morning. The UI Info Suite contains a lot of useful game information that doesn't quite cross into cheating territory. Animals that need to be milked or pet have icons over their head. On mouse over, plants will display their name and days until they can be harvested. The Info Suite has a number of other useful features perfect if you're a forgetful farmer.
Jump Over
Do you place gates for your fences based on what looks nice instead of what's actually practical? You can stop walking all the way around your fenced in fields and make life a whole lot easier with Jump Over. Does precisely what it says on the tin.
Gift Taste Helper
If you constantly have to Alt+Tab out of your game because you cannot for the life of you remember which gifts to give to Caroline and Evelyn, Gift Taste Helper keeps you from having to leave the game to get answers. This mod adds a tooltip with a villager's favorite items when you mouse over them in the relationships menu or their birthday on the calendar. If suddenly becoming omniscient in the ways of gifts feels a little too cheaty for you, modder Tstaples has added a progression version of the mod where you'll only know a villager's preferred gifts if you've successfully discovered them yourself through trial and error.
Reader's Digest
If you've downloaded the Victorian buildings mod but can't stand ruining your immersion with a television in your farmhouse, Reader's Digest is the era-appropriate mod you need. Receive daily letters to your mailbox with Livin' Off The Land and Queen of Sauce tips so that you'll never have to turn on that devil box again.
Get Dressed
Wearing the same shirt and pants every day is odd enough for a cartoon character, let alone a farmer whose dirty field clothes definitely need to get wash every so often. Get Dressed adds a dresser and mirror to your house that you can use to open the character customization menu and change appearance. It also lets you set favorite outfits so that you can easily change from work pants into stylish nightwear before heading to the saloon on a Friday night.
Categorize Chests
By year two of any Stardew farm, I've typically got an entire fleet of chests housing all of my excess fruits, building materials, and rarecrows. Each one has a specific spread of items known only to me from an inventory list that exists only in my head. Categorize Chests allows you to make sense of the madness by dictating exactly which items go in which chests and putting only those items in it with just one button press each time you open it. I've never felt so organized.
CHEAT MODS
In-Game Cheat Menu
This is a very far complex and impressive mod that adds an extensive cheat menu inside the game. You can teleport anywhere, adjust your skill levels on the fly, change the weather, freeze time, give yourself money, increase movement speed, turn on god mode, adjust fishing difficulty, make your watering can never run out, and a whole heck of a lot more—all from within the game. The cheat menu actually has some features of other mods on this list built in, so if you liked the look of some of the mods on the previous page, they may be covered here.
CJB Item Spawner
This mod—potentially combined with the cheat menu above from the same modder—might be the closest Stardew Valley gets to having a 'creative mode' for a while. You can spawn any items you may want directly into your inventory, allowing you to build your dream farm immediately. Flick on the cheat menu's infinite stamina option and freeze time, and you could build the entire thing before the first day even passes. Item spawners are a powerful tool, and hopefully this will lead to some amazing looking farms that would otherwise taking hundreds of hours to create.
Save Anywhere
Stardew's save function taking place at night makes total sense, but sometimes my life isn't as orderly and predictable as my farmer's. Although it's a bit cheat-y, Save Anywhere allows you to do just that. Be warned, the compatibility notes for Save Anywhere are not super promising, saying that it isn't compatible by default with any mods that add new locations or items to the game.
BJS - Time Skipper
Sometimes you get to year five of a farm and have achieved just about everything aside from amassing a fortune. When you've got nothing to do but watch your crops grow, BJS Time Skipper lets you use an Elder Scrolls-esque time waiting function where you choose the number of days you'd like to skip and then watch the days fly by.
Night Owl
If you need more time in your day to farm, the one surefire way to get it is just not sleeping! Stardew Valley forces your farmer to pass out at 2am if they haven't gone to bed yet. With the Night Owl mod, you can stay up forever and never sleep. The game will save at 6am by making it look like you're passing out, but unlike the main game you won't lose items or be forced back home again.
Stardew Valley Sprite Mods
Custom Warps
Custom Warps adds a menu to Stardew Valley where you can set and travel to any tile on the game map. It's a cheesy solution to the problem of walking or riding around town, but a cool mod nevertheless!
Pelican Fiber
After ridding Pelican Town of the evil that is Joja Mart, you can instead introduce it to the evils of the internet! Pelican Fiber lets you shop online at any of the valley's stores 'even on Wednesday, even on Tuesdays, even at midnight or 6am' says modder Jwdred. Since Marnie is never in her shop when I need her and Wednesday always seems to be the day I need seeds from Pierre, shopping online is a lifesaver that lets me get what I need while still saving those local businesses I fought to protect.
Purchasable Recipes
Stardew Valley Original Sprites Download Full
Purchasable Recipes allows you to buy recipes that you normally learn from the Queen of Sauce TV program from the saloon instead. I call this one a cheat because it shortcuts the process of learning recipes the way the game intended, but buying a food recipe from the local bar is a great lore-friendly solution to the problem of forgetting to check my TV every morning.
AutoAnimalDoors
Do you ever remember to shut the doors to your barns and coops at night? I don't. No matter what I do, I always seem to leave my poor animals out in the cold on rainy days. AutoAnimalDoors does the remembering for you by automatically opening and shutting all barns and coops each day. It's a small but life-saving change.
Stardew Valley Save Editor
This save editor is a seperate tool, not technically a mod, that allows you to adjust certain variables about your save file without having to dig around in a text editor. Sure, you could use it to cheat money and power into your game, but it also lets you do more difficult things than that. You can rename your farm, change your outfit, and even move farm buildings—all things that were otherwise unchangeable once set. The save editor can be used to cheat your way through the game, but it can also be used to subtly adjust variables that you couldn't control any other way, making it a valuable tool even for those of us using no mods at all.
