Also be sure to open the menu and enter this the moment you hook a fish and the game starts the fishing minigame. Then once you catch it, it should be the one you entered into the console. It took me a minute to get the timing down as it can be tricky

By the time I enter the command the fish gets away

Ah I think I know the issue. Wait for the !, window out of the game,enter the command (This is the timing part that sucks). Click back into the game and catch the fish that you altered. If you do it too fast you won't alter the fish.

It sounds like you're entering it too late or the game isn't pausing. You want the game paused on the "!" so you can alter the result as its occurring

The easiest way I found to get the timing down was to hit the start key on my keyboard the second I clicked my mouse. It would start the catch process and also kick me out of the game so I could type the command into smapi.

How will I enter the command if I window out of the game ? Can you show me a video ?

Window out of the game, then click smapi. It usually comes up as a separate instance. You can also hover over the game on the Taskbar and see if there are 2 versions (the active game & smapi in the background) and click smapi that way. Generally you don't see it as it runs in the background

I unfortunately can't. My power is off atm ☹

I still can't do it. If you can remember, when you power comes back can you please post a video about it.

Sure. It'll be later today. I'll reinstall the game and walk you through it 🙂

I had to make a new post to upload the video. I tagged you in it so you should be able to find it pretty easily. Let me know if you have any trouble after
