📋 About This Mod
Are you a player?
There's not much here for you, unless one of the mods you're using needs this, in which case: download it and forget it.
Are you a modder?
This mod provides a framework for adding custom weather types to the game using content packs. But what does that mean?
In Stardew Valley 1. 6, the current weather was changed so that mods can add custom weather Ids. However, just having a custom weather Id doesn't do much. This mod is here to fix that, making it easy to add custom rendering effects and the like when there's weather afoot.
Want to get started? We have an authoring guide, as well as a sample content pack with a commented content file showing off a few things.
Make sure to note that your weather won't magically show up. You need to add it to Data/LocationContexts like you would any other weather. You can create custom weather totems though, as documented in the author guide, or you can force tomorrow's weather though, using the cs_tomorrow command. Also check the cs_list command to see all the available weather types by Id.
