Hate Clint's unrequited love for Emily? Dislike some of the official pairings, maybe even a little jealous? This mod lets you close these relationships and much more!

Jayes’ NPC relationship adjustment

🎮 **A mod that lets you control NPC relationships in Stardew Valley**

✨ Main functions

**Adjustable Official Pairing Switch:**

  • ❌ Cancel the pairing of Harvey and Maru
  • ❌ Unpairing Abigail and Sebastian
  • ❌ Cancel the pairing of Leah and Elliot
  • ❌ Cancel the pairing of Penny and Sam
  • ❌ Unpairing Alex and Hailey
  • ❌ Unpairing Shane and Emily
  • ❌ Cancel the pairing of Marlon and Marnie

🎭 Additional adjustment options

**Clint is no longer incel:**

  • Modified dialogue with all female characters, not just Emily
  • Keep the same event scene, but change the dialogue to the topic of social difficulties

**Caroline did not cheat:**

  • Removed small pieces of dialogue that may suggest cheating

**Vincent no longer has a crush on Penny:**

  • While this is not a mutual affection, it may feel awkward as an adult caring for a child

⚙️ Instructions for use

All changes can be turned on or off via the **General Mod Configuration Menu**!

💡 **Warm reminder:**

  • Characters may still dance together at the Flower Dance Festival if no one invites them
  • This is beyond the modification capabilities of the module
  • But the related dialogue will be modified

📝 Notes

This mod edits dialogue and event scenes, not adding new content, just replacing existing content.

🚫 **Content that will not be modified:**

  • Demetrius and Robin's relationship
  • Pierre and Caroline's relationship

-Kent and Jody's relationship

  • Any NPC relationship status that cannot be pursued

🌟 Mainly made for my friends and myself, I share it in the hope that it will make others happy too!

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.
