About this mod Machine translation

This module turns Marlon and Gunther into interactive gift-giving NPCs.

Make friends with Malone and Gunther

🎮 **Make your Stardew Valley adventure even richer! ** This mod turns Malone from the Adventurer's Guild and Gunther, the museum director, into NPC characters that can be interacted with and given gifts!

✨ Module Features

This module is based on the original version of Befriend Marlon and Gunther, which has been adjusted and optimized by MithranArkanere. It has the following improvements compared to the original version:

🌟 **Malong function enhancement**

  • Added Malone back to all festival events where he should be participating
  • Repositioned Malone's position on the counter (he should be standing at 5,11, but now stands at 4,11)
  • Adjusted Ma Long's work and rest time from 22:00 to 01:50
  • Every Friday he goes to the counter instead of the bar and goes to bed at 01:50

🌟 **Gunther Optimization**

  • Repositioned Gunther during the winter (he overlapped with Malone the following year)

🌟 **Adventurers Guild Improvements**

  • Adjusted the Adventurer's Guild counter, changed the map and customized the tiles
  • The counter now opens on the left side and doesn't look broken
  • Increased the size of the counter interactive area so that it covers both under the Malone and under the cashier to match other stores

🛠️ Installation instructions

📥 **Installation is very easy! **

  • Unzip and drag it into the Mods folder
  • No need to overwrite the original mod

⚠️ Compatibility Notes

🔧 **Compatibility Information**:

  • This mod is incompatible with SVE and other mods that turn Marlon and Gunther into interactive NPCs
  • Incompatible mods include: make gunther real, make marlon real

🎨 **Conflict with Seasonal Beautification Mod**:

After testing, this mod may conflict with the seasonally beautified walking picture of the horse, which will cause the little man to blink and turn white while walking.

**Solution**:

  • The seasonal beautification mod's Marlon walking map needs to be disabled in the mod configuration menu (slightlycuterMarlon option)
  • If you have the same problem with Gunther, disabling Gunther's option in Seasonal Beautification should fix it

💫 **Start building a friendship with these two mysterious characters! ** Explore their unique personalities and stories to make your life in Stardew Valley more colorful!

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)

  1. Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
  2. Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
  3. Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
  4. Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.

Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
