New Additions to Caelwynn's Stardew 1.6.9+ Mod List — April 17, 2025 Edition

Went through and alphabetized/reorganized each page in the modlists, so hopefully they're easier to navigate. 💖

Expansions/NPCS

Always Raining in the Valley — adds best boi Sterling, his cousin Henry, and their housemate Mia, to Sunberry Village. Now with Sterling's Marriage Update!

Always Raining in the Valley Kids - Children Grow Up — A delightful surprise from Hime. This mod turns your children with Sterling into real NPCs! Includes dialogue not just for the children, but also 150+ lines for Sterling too.

Dynamic Shane and Sterling — Allows you to befriend Shane and Sterling in any order without breaking immersion, with optional rival heart events for Shane/Sterling.

Jonghyuk and Spanner - Custom NPCs for Sunberry Village — The world ended, but Jonghyuk survived. Adds a dateable bachelor and adoptable child NPC to Sunberry Village. From the author of Lucikiel and Lavril!

Dialogue/Character Changes

Gameplay/QoL

Actually Lucky Rabbit's Foot (Rebooted) — Makes the Rabbit's Foot actually give you some Luck. A passive luck bonus is applied to your character whenever you carry around a rabbit's foot.

Auto Heal and Energize — Automatically consume food to recover when your health or stamina is low.

Boss Battles — This mod adds 7 new unique bosses to the mines with varying difficulty settings and arenas, each dropping cool costumes and valuable materials.

Catalogue Filter - Continued — Adds a filter field for shop menus and catalogues that lets you filter shown items based on text input.

Challenging Community Center Bundles — A bundle overhaul mod which tries to create a challenging but not frustrating experience playing Stardew Valley. My first time playing with it, so we'll see how it goes.

FarmHouse Lights — Lets you have light at night in your home without placing torches. Island house included as option.

Fruit Trees Unblocked — Brings some of the unblocking functionality from Fruit Tree Tweaks to 1.6

Growing Valley - Child NPCs — See your toddlers grow up into walking, talking children who take after your spouse! A content pack for LittleNPCs. [Requirement for ARV Kids]

Legacy Cellar — Spacious cellar expansion, with a large main floor, plus a lower level for indoor planting.

Legacy Coops and Barns — More spaciously laid out coops and barns for your animals, with a dedicated area for produce machines or storage once fully upgraded.

Legacy Farm — Large farm map with its own quarry, waterfall cave to replenish your energy, farm forest with foragables and re-spawnable hardwood stumps, a vineyard and winery/storage shed area and a Junimo treehouse with warps to the Mountain, Beach, Desert, Ginger Island, Ridgeside Village and East Scarp.

Legacy Farm Cave — Three-story farm cave, created for the Legacy Farm, though it should be compatible with most other farm maps! Includes foragables, planting areas, a hot spring to replenish your energy, a treasure chest to help you in the early game, and your very own small quarry. Works like a greenhouse, and you can use casks here.

Legacy Farm Progression Unlocks — Adds progression-based locks to ItsLunatyx's Legacy Farm with configurable added large debris and an optional (temporary!) barrier to the winery.

Legacy Greenhouse — Large Greenhouse, originally created for the Legacy Farm but should be compatible with most farm maps. Three large planting rooms, a large basement, and a garden area to have fun with.

Little NPCs — Turns your children into little NPCs. Requires ContentPatcher. [Requirement for ARV Kids]

Lnh's First FarmHouse — Sizable new farmhouse with both first and second upgrades. Trying it out in my newest save in order to (hopefully) avoid bugs in a couple of Sterling's Marriage events.

The Museum Pays - Get Paid Donating to the Museum — This mod adds a new way to get paid in the valley and that's by your own donations to the museums, for every 10 donations to the museum you'll now receive a letter the next day with thanking you 1000/5000/10000 gold. Configurable.

PFM Indoor Apiary - Indoor Bee house Mod — This is a Producer Framework Mod that allows bee houses to produce honey indoors from either potted plants or the ground. It works in sheds, barns, coops, your home, greenhouses, the sewer or where-ever else you could think to place a potted flower and beehive.

RED FLAGS (PORRIS EDITION)

[sofiaruelle]

Just a couple of besties with matching missing 2 front teef~

[studentinpursuitofclouds]

I don't need much to be happy

[plazmafields]

Enough "should characters have set sexualities or should they all be player-sexual" discourse! "Oh well I'm a straight man and I wanna be able to romance Judy as a—" WELL TOO BAD! I don't wanna know why you want to date a character, I wanna know why your MC wants to date that character!

"I romanced Minthara on my Bhaal's Chosen DU because she's the only character who would encourage my DU to stay evil even when they don't want to be." Yes, amazing.

"I romanced Wyll as a male drow because they both have a complex about not deserving nice things because there's always someone more important than them." Wonderful symmetry.

"I romanced Astarion on my Resist Urge because those stories both center around fighting what feels natural in order to become a better version of yourself." Absolutely beautiful.

"I romanced Kerry on my Streetkid V because V wants to make it to the major leagues any way he can, and if that means becoming a sugar baby, so be it." Tragic, I love it.

"I romanced River on my Corpo V because being with someone who also has to figure out who they are outside of a corporate hierarchy makes her feel less alone." Poetic, I love it.

"I romanced Lucanis because my Rook is also a Crow and loves the culture of deep family ties, and wants to be with someone who expects to have a large extended family in the future." Facinating angle.

"I romanced Maru because my farmer never had a strong relationship with their family and kind of thinks of Robin and Demetrius as their new parents." Adorable and possibly messy.

I wanna see people talk more about how their romance option(s) fits into their playthrough, not "I'm a straight man so I romanced Panam." BORING!!! ROLEPLAY HARDER IDIOT!!!

[dyketennant]

last night i had a dream where there was massive discourse over the fact that in the disco elysium mobile port they added a feature that lets you marry kim

[zorangezest]

the grim reaper

in this universe she is also known as tiller!

When the builder/farmer/villager wakes up an npc to give them their commissions

[fkapple]

Shane and Emily on sleep schedules? Can’t decide if they’d be the stereotypical opposites or more similar than they think haha

In the future Emily would have him take off his hoodie before bed as it’s a potential safety hazard the way he gets tangled in it

started playing stardew valley recently🔥🔥

[himeofshyness]

When you think you've finally settled on the NPC you want to marry, but then you meet another interesting character and suddenly want to pursue them too. You’re curious about their story, but your heart won’t let you divorce your current spouse—so you start a new save file. Then another. Each one with a different farmer OC, each with their own love interest and story. Before you know it, you've built an entire farming game world where your OCs coexist. And now, every time you find another NPC attractive, you have to create yet another OC, complete with a backstory, personality, and design… until it becomes a full-blown creative headache. 😵
