Hey peeps!! Just popping in to say that this blog is going to be on pause for a while! I've been a little busy lately, and I think it would be best to take a tiny break. (Not dead, just paused :])

Mystery 101: Killer Timing

As part of my eternal war against nonproductivity I've decided to start journaling about what I've been up to while modding Don't Starve Together.

So - modding! I've been working on both Wyneer's mod and a new one: Winslow (and Tobin)! I've been in Sprite Hell drawing hellish sprites and that's where all my artistic energy is going.

Look at my horrible boys!

A lot of rambling (and some WIPs) about my progress on them both under the cut. (Seriously, you do not have to read this!!!)

What's going on with Wyneer's mod?

Wyneer has been getting play-tested regularly on some servers with some friend groups. Mercifully he has behaved very well: while I’ve had to fix a couple of bugs, he's been stable even in worlds with other mods enabled. Yay!

I’ve mostly been pulling back from finishing his remaining unfinished assets to focus on bug-fixing and balancing him and his masks. He’s not quite at a spot I’m happy with yet, but I feel close enough that I’ve started adding in the mask missing from the beta version of his mod – Radiant Face!

Ray has a lot of work to be done still (he has triple the amount of sprites of a normal mask – which is why he got held back to begin with!) but I’m very happy with him so far.

I’ve set up a pipeline for adding new masks to Wyneer’s mod, which has been a huge help.

However, I’ve been taking a break from Wyneer recently to work on a certain somebody...

What's going on with Winslow's mod?

I started working on Winslow (and Tobin) a few weeks ago, but very recently I’ve been WORKING working on him.

I decided to begin with his sprites – as I usually tell people to start with that but never actually do myself – and he’s coming along great! Once his face and chest sprites are done he’ll be able to pass convincingly as a finished character in motion. (Right now he only passes in screenshots.)

While I’ve actually gotten the functionality to swap between Winslow and Tobin working, I’m waiting on Winslow’s sprites to be completely finished before I start on Tobin’s art. A lot of their assets are going to be very similar and it will be easier to keep consistency between them this way.

Other than coding, I've mostly been doing concept art.

Making Winslow real has predictably led to his perks getting adjusted or outright removed in places; I made Winslow himself back in 2020, but only decided to mod him in back when I made Tobin in October of last year. Tobin already had perks and quirks, but Winslow didn’t! So I made up some stuff that sounded appropriate and forgot about it.

‘Appropriate’ doesn’t always mean ‘feasible’ - sometimes it doesn’t even mean ‘fun’ - so now I am trying to wrangle the nebulous idea of who he is into a tool* who accomplishes a task that feels rewarding.

(*Admittedly Winslow is already kind of a tool.)

The main gimmick of his character is of course that he can turn into a character who is much stronger than himself, but I want there to be a reason for him to be himself sometimes.

Still, he does have some perks from his ref sheet that made it in, and some have begun to get added to his mod already.

Once him and Tobin are done, I'd like to swerve to adding in his finalised items and refining the concepts for some new ones, as Tobin needs those items for his own perks to function.

I also thought of a cool gameplay hook to go with Winslow and Tobin's ability to swap between one another, but I'm still ironing out the details and this post is long enough.

That's all!

Stardew Valley 1.6 Spoilers 2/2

I was gonna stay on that save to figure out what the new holidays were, but it was making me miss my main save that I now gotta delete some mods to run again teehee. ANYWAY, more.

Dogs, cats, AND TURTLES!? (I would later buy one, I named him Winslow. Cause he wins by being slow idk man)

He's raiding my snacks!

THIS is the MVP of the update!! Now we don't care that Marnie is N E V E R at work!!

MOSS!? (How tf do I get moss)

New area!!!

Another thing from a mod I used to have lol! The traveling cart had an Emily portrait, and since she's my wife in this save, I had to have it!

Tested the tent! It works exactly as it should.

The Big Chest, now in real life!!

NEW HOUSE EXPANSIONS!!! I'm gonna test these in my main save cause that house is actually decorated in a way that doesn't make me vomit (Hopefully my mods I decorated it with don't explode eeeee)

Now there's a waterfall here. Good touch 10/10

MY LIFE HAS IMPROVED EXPONENTIALLY by finding these in my furniture catalog!!!! I actually used them to fix this house even though it's still ugly lol.

You can change your fishing bobber now!! So many great options already...

Omg smoked fish yummy... If I ever remake my dead NPC of my sona, she'll have Smoked Salmon added as a favorite.

OKAY SO OH MY GOD

I JUST FOUND A 1080P VERSION OF WILLIAM FINLEY'S MURDER A LA MOD ON YOUTUBE AND IT'S SO SATISFYING

LOOK AT THE QUALITY

JUST LOOK

I'VE ONLY EVER SEEN IT IN 240P

THIS RULES

For anyone who wants to see it, here's the link: https://youtu.be/e2vU5J4UjaY

For those who've never seen it, I can recommend it so much. Murder a la Mod is about a young model who steals a huge sum of money to help her boyfriend escape a job in a shady movie studio stalked by a psychotic prankster (William Finley, seen in most pictures). While she's waiting for him there she is murdered. This is where the movie tells her last few hours again, only this time from another point of view. And bit by bit, we finally find out who her murderer really was. The plot twist will kill you.

I'm tagging this #Phantom of the Paradise since it has William Finley (Winslow) in it (and composed and sung the theme song) and may interest some people who liked PotP <3

Hello! Bad news! My ancient laptop has keeled over and died. 95% of my logins are on said laptop (I use a password manager), and I have no way of accessing anything I hadn't miraculously saved on my phone (like this blog!) So I've gotta announce it here.

I currently do not have a computer at all and do not know when I will. Currently I also don't have access to any of the art or writing I've made in the past few weeks.

(To those wondering: Winslow's mod is saved to my cloud, Wyneer's upcoming update was not. :( I have lost all of the work on that as it stands rn which!! Sucks!! Because he was almost finished!! But ok!!! We go again ig!!!)

I see I have OC asks that I'd like to answer, but typing on phones is hell so I'll get to them when I have a keyboard again. Whenever that is.

Coincidentally, next Saturday is actually my birthday, so props to my laptop for being real funny I guess.

Winslow for the WIN, Old Souls still makes me mist up.

May I have a sketch of a northern goshawk?

I’ll do you one better—because I was originally going to do something like this,

But then I saw this fucking awesome pic and had to add Winslow there instead.
