📋 About This Mod

I Upload my mods ONLY on Nexusmods.com  Do NOT reupload them elsewhere without permission.

This mod changes all buildings/structures and décor in Pelican Town ( +desert and Ginger Island ).

It doesn't include farm buildings ( see my Medieval Buildings for matching aesthetic ).

It may have some wonky tiles when using with mods that change town map ( like SVE, Reimagined ) as i focused on making it vanilla-ready first. I'll make sure they all work perfectly in the future updates c:

This mod will look the best with vanilla or one of these:

- Eemie's Just A New Map Recolour

- DaisyNiko's Earthy Recolour

- Stardew Foliage Redone ( original no longer available )

- Starblue Valley

- Vibrant Pastoral Recolor

- A Wittily Named Recolor

Matching retextures for mods ( tested on ):

- Museum Expansion ( v. 1. 9. 13 )

- IF2Fix (v. 2. 0. 2-unofficial. 12-mouse )

Installation:

SMAPI, Content Patcher nedeed!

Special thanks to Minervamaga and Eemie. Their beautiful assets ( 90% of all flowers, stone wall texture, round chimney, wood flooring texture, definitely forgetting a lot, sacks ) are as always my favourite parts of the mod c:
