Dark Mode UI

🌙 **A dark theme interface module created for Stardew Valley**

Based on Vintage Interface V2.

If this looks familiar to you, that's because I previously released this mod for version 1.5, but then removed it. If you haven't seen it, this is a dark mode theme designed for Stardew Valley that has been mostly updated to version 1.6. I may have missed something because I haven't fully experienced the 1.6 update yet and don't know what the problem might be.

🎯 IMPORTANT INFORMATION

✨ **Custom pointer and portrait background**

  • My mod contains three custom pointers and portrait background
  • If you want to use your favorite pointer mod, or if it conflicts with an existing portrait background mod, you can select "Off" in the general options menu

🎨 **Font color description**

  • Font colors are not perfect: the game hardcodes some font colors
  • Some fonts will remain dark no matter what
  • Provide two solutions to improve this problem

🔧 Solution

Option 1: Use Theme Manager

  • Download Theme Manager
  • My mod is configured to work with this mod
  • Select the Dark Mode UI option in the general options menu
  • If you don't see the change, type "retheme" in the SMAPI console to reload the colors

Option 2: Use FontFixOption

  • Use Korean FontFixOption module
  • More powerful but slightly more complicated to operate
  • You can download the configuration file provided by me to replace the configuration of the original module
  • It is recommended to adjust the color settings according to personal preference and visual needs

Option 3: Combined use

  • Both modules can be used simultaneously
  • If you're familiar with content patcher dependencies, you can have one mod load after another for better coverage

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.
