The Premise

Hey there! I've always been kind of annoyed that, year after year, everyone's talking about the same old stuff at the festivals, regardless of whatever we've been through together! Sure, once in a while your spouse says something spousey, but in general it's kind of boring and you wind up skipping festivals you've been to once.

BUT I WANT MORE!

So I'm making this mod [: It uses Content Patcher to add dialogue to festival events, based on relationship status. New dialogue for characters you're friendly with, dating, engaged to (since engagements last three days, you'll have give 'em the pendant at a very specific time to see these...), married to (if there wasn't already spouse dialogue), or, DUN DUN DUNNNN - divorced from! I don't know about you, but my ex-wife probably wouldn't be so happy for me to come talk to her at the town fair.

Done so far:

• Over 600 new lines of festival dialogue for all marriage candidates!

Next up:

• Everyone else

• Translations

In my dreams:

• Dialogue for marriage candidates' friends and family based on relationship status - ie: Pierre really doesn't like me much because I divorced Abigail, or Jodi invites me to sit at her family's table when I'm dating Sam.

• New sprites and portraits with festival-appropriate clothing?????? That'd be cool.

We'll see if I ever get there.
