📋 About This Mod
- 54 options for fairy companions (12 TLoZ style fairies + 42 butterflies)
- Allows you to change fairies individually, so your farms with different fairies can have different sprites
- 13 options for frog companions
- 25 options for the parrot companion (10 parrots + 15 small birds)
- Includes randomization options for all companions to change their sprites each day
1. Install the latest version of SMAPI.
2. Install the latest version of Content Patcher.
3. Extract into your \Stardew Valley\Mods\ folder.
4. Run the game through SMAPI to generate a config.json, then close.
5. Open the config.json with a program like Notepad and use the images in the References folder to change each companion to the sprite you prefer. If you can't get a config.json to generate, you can rename the example_config.json to config.json and use it instead. All replacements can be disabled with the value "false"
6. Run the game using SMAPI to play with your new companions!
There are instructions in the images in the References folder, but do note that the appearance of fairies is fixed per save/farm and can't be changed by the anvil. You just need to find which fairy you have on your save, and change the config for that specific fairy! I recommend using GMCM for easy config changes in-game.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,884 endorsements — clearly a hit.
- Simple drop-in cosmetic change, no gameplay tweaks to worry about.
- Recently updated (August 2024) so likely works with current game version.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects trinket companions, so if you wanted more variety in other areas, this won't help.
- No screenshots or previews provided, so you'll have to install to see if you like the art style.
For players who love their trinket companions but wish they looked cuter. If you're into cosmetic tweaks and want a fresh look for your in-game buddies, this is for you. Skip if you're after gameplay changes — this is purely visual.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a sprite replacement, make sure to back up your original files if you want to revert easily.
- Check if the mod requires a mod manager or manual installation — the description doesn't say, so look for a readme or forum post.
- If you're using other cosmetic mods, test for conflicts by installing this one last.
