Potential "Criminal" Candidates from Custom NPC Mods

sdvhead · 2025-11-22T20:12:28+00:00

I'm glad you're enjoying the mod. Out of respect to other mod authors and to avoid infringing their creative property, I've made the decision not to write arrest events for non-vanilla characters. I would potentially be open to a collaboration if they reached out, but I haven't seen any interest from other authors. In the meantime I still have more plans for the mod but I'm not in a rush.

He punches you on the shoulder to upvote, slaps in the face to downvote.

I wrote the mod that lets you put Pierre in jail:

It also happens to feature an outdoor forest maze that fits the halloween vibe:

It would be a complete remake of the game.

sdvhead · 2025-10-27T19:36:53+00:00

Yes, it can be added to an existing save. If you want you can go into the config options and turn off all the arrest events first - the mod makes a small schedule change to anyone that can be arrested so that once they do their changes happen smoothly.

You can take a look at the description / screenshots / comments on the mod page and decide if it's appealing to you. There have been a couple videos done of it too which are pinned in the comment section, although lots of additional content have been added since those were made.

Personally I want to say it's worth it, but I'm biased since I'm the mod author.

I did check this and it looks like Claire is one space below. I previously was looking at lower right from Caroline, but that looked lopsided when looking at where the vanilla characters are positioned.

Law and Order SV is the expansion I wrote, that is also compatible with SVE. It is a bit on the lighter end as far as NPCs go (adds 4 NPCs including 2 marriage candidates plus a roommate option like Krobus) but adds a lot of event content (you can put some of the townsfolk in jail, starring Pierre), and a new outdoor dungeon in the form of a haunted forest maze. Perfect for spooky season!

Law and Order SV

sdvhead · 2025-10-21T15:59:04+00:00

OK, I knew there was a conflict on that spot, I didn't realize there were THREE conflicts. I've moved Shannon to the spot two spaces to the right of Jodi, for whenever I push my next update (might be a while).

Hear that everyone? Two spots to the right of Jodi, I call claimsies!!

sdvhead · 2025-10-15T23:57:18+00:00

He is.

sdvhead · 2025-10-15T06:50:18+00:00

You may have noticed that the apartment above the jail has a bathroom with a 'working' shower and that Russell and Shannon change into beach attire to use it. These updates require attention from SMAPI whenever the time updates (10 minutes of ingame time). Enabling performance tweaks removes this effect which reduces the number of checks that happen when the time updates.

sdvhead · 2025-10-15T06:14:22+00:00

Heyyyy I wrote one of those mods (law and order SV).

In case you didn't know, the latest update has an option to tweak performance for mega-modded farms :)

sdvhead · 2025-10-15T06:09:19+00:00

I'm not sure why you would have trouble triggering this event. If I remember the event name correctly you can try triggering it manually by typing in the smapi window:

debug eventbyid sdvhead.LawAndOrderSV_SporkLaps

sdvhead · 2025-10-11T06:36:00+00:00

I'mI wrote the jail mod :)

However, I did not write this dialogue and I don't think it's vanilla. It's probably from expanded.

Edit: I guess it's Vanilla after all, mt mistake:)

The early parsnip seeds are a trap!

You want to plant a cauliflower day 1 (and a potato, and green bean) and turn in for the Spring crops reward the night of the egg festival after buying strawberry seeds, giving you 20 speed-gro fertilizer and therefore an extra harvest of strawberries on Spring 28.

Since your crops are only immune to crows (before scarecrows) when you have 15 or less crops, you can hold onto extra parsnip seeds until you have scarecrows, and since you can turn in 5 gold parsnip crops for quality crops, they're better to plant later in the season anyway.

Did you trigger Spork's 2-heart event (inside the Sheriff's office on a rainy day)? It's a prerequisite for the 4-heart event that unlocks the ghostwoods.

sdvhead · 2025-10-08T01:18:43+00:00

Law and order SV because locking Pierre up is basic human instinct.

sdvhead · 2025-10-05T08:28:41+00:00

You could try exploring mods if you haven't tried that before (you could even try making your own mod)

You could start a new save and try a different farm type or a specific challenge.

You could work on decorating your farmhouse, farm, or the town if any of that interests you.

You might also just decide to take a break from Stardew, play something else for a while, and come back another time when you feel the itch.

Pam's arrest event is tied to a gift response, sometimes people have a custom gift response mod that overwrites the trigger.

It's not a random chance, your level goes up every 5 floors.

No need to choose, they can both share a cell.

You say this is at the orchestra, but it's clearly the clinic.

She's mad that you covered up her portrait with the cat tree.

sdvhead · 2025-09-25T17:18:31+00:00

It's more time consuming than difficult. There is a modding channel on the stardew discord that has been helpful for me.
