Fishing Chests Expanded

🎣 **Make fishing treasure chest rewards more abundant and diverse! **

---

⚠️ Prerequisites

**Note: This mod requires the Advanced Loot Framework mod to be installed in order to function properly. **

---

🎯 Core Functions

This mod makes fishing chest loot fully customizable via configuration files! The `config.json` file will be automatically created when you run the module for the first time, allowing you to freely adjust various parameters.

---

⚙️ Basic settings

**VanillaLootChance (0-100)** - Percent chance of adding the contents of this mod to the contents of the vanilla chest

**ChanceForTreasureChest (0-100)** - The base chance of a treasure chest appearing when fishing, set to -1 to use the original chance

**MaxItems** - Maximum number of items per chest

**ItemsBaseMaxValue** - The upper limit of the total value of the treasure chest items corresponding to the fish with difficulty 1

**IncreaseRate** - Adjust the treasure chest value growth rate of difficult fish

---

🔧 Detailed configuration instructions

When the game starts, an item list will be created based on **ItemListTypes**, and only items with a value between **MinItemValue** and **MaxItemValue** will be added.

The formula for calculating the total value of the treasure chest:

```

(ItemsBaseMaxValue * fish difficulty)^IncreaseRate

```

**ItemListChances** determines the probability of each type of item being selected into the treasure chest:

  • 0 = This type of item will never appear in chests
  • 100 = This type of item will always be added

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.
