From starting from Star Wars with textures to the easy fishing, we present to you the best Stardew Valley mods. Please have a look!
It does not have an official workshop support but it has a modding community that was released in the year 2016. After the blossoming year, it developed into thousands of mods that do everything from making fishing an easy hobby to the change in how animals need to be perceived. Henceforth, there has been a completely overhauled guide to the ideal Stardew Valley of how the game should look. This will also be a convenient guide for understanding the farm life and how the game looks like.
Most of these notes are found on the official Stardew Valley mod’s forum Or are the game’s Nexus Mods page, Both of them are getting amazing mods on a daily basis. If you’re still wondering, try playing it on a multiplayer level and see how it works out for you.
One of the most important things is to start before jumping in the bandwagon of starting a valley is getting the updates right. Since there is not any official support until now, there stands a probability that these mods will break and will be reinstalled later after the update.
It is a smart move to back up all your files and modify, in case you feel like there should be some changes. Try saving your data in the backup file, just to be safe.
How to install Stardew Valley mods
As they call it as most of these mods are with the easy modifications to the game’s XNB files. All you have to do is to install the modified XNB files and find the corresponding XNB file in the Stardew Valley ‘Content’ folder. The default location is “C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Content”, after this you can replace the authentic XNB one that you have downloaded initially. Always create a back-up of the original in case you wish to extract the mod.
Stardew Modding API (SMAPI)
Mods that create few more complex alterations. It may require the “Stardew Modding API”, or SMAPI to summarise. It is a community-made API which is frequently been updated and it also allows oneself to use DLL mods. It can sound as a slight huge hassle for the installation of these mods as compared to the XNB ones. You’ll first need to install SMAPI and then download DLL mods to place into SMAPI’s mod folder. But, however, been said that it allows the mods to make the much deeper alteration to the game. The player can easily download the SMAPI on the Stardew Valley modding forum and we will mark the mods that will be required in usage.
Stardew Valley ModManager (SDVMM)
ModManager has made a great community which is known as SDVMM. It will help in installing and updating the SMAPI to keep the track of all the mods. It allows us to activate and deactivate various specific mods without extracting the files completely and providing more flexibility if you wish to try something on the list and potentially, to keep the mod for a lifetime!
Ali’s Overgrown Fairy Buildings
As they say, fairies are not everyone’s cup of tea but the overgrown fairy buildings are so nicely done that one must include them in their list. The overgrown fairy building has re-textures in all the farm buildings and is in pink and white undertones. It is covered in vines and flowers and is super adorable where an individual can personalize their farm and transform that from Castle to a little cottage with a flower garden. The slime heart is transformed in a personalized way. And if you like floral settings, you may pair it with Ali’s flower grass which can turn the long grass of your farm into a colorful wildflower. Ali also consists of the modern farm building mod and if you like the modder’s style, you can exactly get the ivy-covered farmhouses.
Bathhouse Hot Spring
The bathing house of the north of Pelican Town is where one may refreshen their energy in handy. The ambient wear of exhausting fans is a little out of place in the idyllic valley. The bathhouse Hotspring Mod will turn itself into an old bath house that will also produce gentle sounds of running water. One of the original mods has not been updated since the year 2017. There has been the latest version of the bath house for spraying which has been compatible with the content patcher mod manager.
No Spouse Rooms
To decide whom you should pursue as a spouse is one of the most important life decisions where you are going to start your new farm with. While we love all those Stardew’s beaus and belles, But we get a little bit sad when the sweetheart moves in and tries to erode the aesthetics of the weird hobby room. As they say, marriage is all about compromise apparently the sanctity of the decor is not that area where they are trying to meet at the middle section.
Modern Gothic Interior
Let’s talk about the decor, modder Coldazrael’s Modern Gothic Interior tries to re-skin with a bunch of interior types of furniture that has a stark white fabric, in amalgamation with the dark wood. So if you don’t have enough possibilities of the Stardew’s vanilla furniture, This trendy Gothic furniture will bring a whole next level dimension to the entire space.
Seasonal Victorian Buildings
All the seasonal Victorian buildings are yet another extensive visual mod that will give a new vibe to the entire space. The Modder Eemie Has tried to go that extra mile so that they can create seasonal versions of each and every building which has a meaning of Victorian structures that are fit right in the world all year round.
DCBurger’s Portrait Mod
One of my favorite portrait mod is the DC burger’s portrait mod. Unlike many of these animal style character edits, there have been many genders swaps with a tinch of being grittier. All the characters have a dark style that has square jaws, masculine features, much more other ensembles. It might not exactly fit in with the vanilla version of Pelican Town, but there has always been a nice break from all the adorable features. All these portraits depend on the portraiture mode which helps in allowing the higher resolution character portraits.
Gigi’s Hi-Res Portraits Mod
It gives you a totally different kind of a feeling, that Gigi’s high-resolution portraits can’t turn characters into beautifully crafted anime portraits that may feel like a bit of Pokémon and one piece which had an affair. Although, all the characters have a fun take inside. Whereas, there is one character Harvey which comes from a dark mustache man to be a verified senpai. Always remember to download the portraiture mod for this one especially.
Stardew Anime Mods
All the Stardew anime mods have been quite popular amongst the other portrait mods and for a good reason. Yes, they are detailed, brightly colored pixel walls which fits and amazingly with the vanilla Stardew Valley. Unfortunately, there are portraits for the young women out there that where the bachelors just want to love sparkly with the comparison in their eyes.
Monster Valley
Who would have thought about dating monsters in games? There is a sword, birds, who have worked their way into the mainstream over the last few years. The monster Valley is carried in their freaking footsteps so it questions, “ever have thought to date a demon?” or “Marry a merman?” or “Seduce a slime girl?” Blizzriel asks the modder. One makes and right now in this game. The monster Valley is one of the most eligible sprites of the Pelican Town and has given a spooky alternative. The two characters, Robin and Sebastien Beckham the Demons while the other two characters, Demetrious and Maru are the patchwork dolls. Whereas, Elliot remains the merman, for sure.
Coii’s Hair Sets Pack
It adds further to the bunch of few new hairstyles that one may choose for the farmer. It has a range of long and short varieties. From those elegant braids to the stylish bows, or other slick-backs, There’s always more than enough where one may choose a character which is quite similar to the creator.
Elle’s Cat Replacements
Another way to create wealth for an alternator is the Elle’s Cat replacement. It can turn your farm cat into anything from calico to a tortoiseshell. Probably the whirlwind that everything goes on between in the full circles. It has made numerous animal replacement mods such as new horses, dog replacements, amongst many others.
Cuter Fatter Cows
All the Cuter Fatter Cows are torn into the Stardew Valley’s bovines. It is the plump version that has rosy cheeks which are meant to look like the cows of Harvest Moon. There are multiple murders that have created many animal sprites and remain favorite. The modder identity pollution has recently released an update to the Cuter Fatter Cows That may consist of the fat and cute animal re-textures.
Horse Bear
This model will simply be useful steed into a grizzly bear. If you are a gamer and you are fond of bears, then this will certainly make a good mod for you. These are quite actual multiple mods that will turn your horse into a beer and these can be your favorite as well!
Horse Boys
It lets you turn your house into one of the Stardew Valley’s bachelors. We understand that it looks pretty horrifying that they are galloped around. There has been no implication of riding a spouse or someone other than your partner in and around the town. This Mod will mess up without crossing the same. You can also try the Pam Crow for more horrifying and uncanny villagers.

UI Info Suite
There is a lot that one needs to keep a track of on the farm. Sometimes one cannot remember where we have planted the cauliflower or whether or not you have a pet of your sheep in the early morning hours. The UI Info Suite includes many useful games that have all the information into cheating territory. all the animals that need to be melted or have icons over their head will display the name and days until it can be harvested. All the info suite has a number of features that can be perfect for you if you’re a forgetful farmer.
CJB Item Spawner
This particular mod is potentially combined with the cheat menu list. It is located above the same modder. It is one of the closest Stardew Valley that can have a creative more for a while. You can easily spawn some of the items directly to your inventory, and then allow a dream farm to be built over immediately. It takes the creative mode for some time to turn your dreams into reality. After this, you can easily click on the cheats menu, understand their stamina option and you can easily do the entire thing for the first day passes. All the items remain a powerful tool and hopefully, it will lead to amazing fans that might take hundreds of hours to create further magic.
Save Anywhere
The save function at the Stardew Valley will take place at the night. However, it will totally make sense, and sometimes your life is not as in order and as predictable as the farmer. It might sound a bit cheat-y but you are allowed to save from anywhere. Always make sure that you want and your compatibility notes are saved. When you say that it is not much compatible by default with any other mod, it becomes not-so-super promising.

Night Owl
Sleeping is not the surefire away from which you can get on your dairy farm. It forces the farmer to pass out at 2 AM if they have not still hit the sack yet. Thanks to the night owl mode, one can stay up forever and never get back to sleep. This game, however, saved automatically at six in the morning because it assumes like you are passing out. One of the main game, one of the great features is that you will not lose any items. Also, you won’t be forced to get back to the home straight after this.
Custom Warps
This is yet another menu that has been added to the Stardew Valley. It automatically allows an individual to set and travel to a tile on the game map. It also allows and provides a cheesy solution to the problem of walking or riding around the town. Nevertheless, it has won a cool mod!

Jamie’s Balanced Greenhouse
There are tons of models that will help in expanding the greenhouse. Most of that is excessively huge. On a personal level, one doesn’t want to do all the farming inside. Another balanced greenhouse is one of the perfectly modest expansions to yet another greenhouse face which is located on the central plot and is 15×15 square evenly placed. Also known as the iridium sprinklers which can be added up to 12 individual score plots, it can plant more and more trees since everyone’s planting the fruit tree in the ring around the default greenhouse plot.

It can do however multiple customizations on the menu and change appearance. You can set your favorite outfits and easily change from work pants to a stylish night well before you head to the saloon on a Friday night.
Categorize Chests
By year two of any form in the Stardew Valley, it can typically get an entire fleet of the chest that is housed all of the excess fruits. Where they also have building materials and rarecrows.
