Hailey Eight Hearts Incident Photo Optimization

✨ **Make romantic moments even more perfect! **

Have you ever noticed that the Polaroids from Haley's Eight Hearts episode look a little weird? That's because these photos haven't been updated in a long time!

🎯 The problem

In the current version of Stardew Valley, Polaroids use beta sprites of Hayley, cows, and the surrounding environment. This mod was created to solve this problem!

🌟 Module Features

**📸 Comprehensive visual upgrade**

  • Updated all Polaroid photos from Hayley's Eight Hearts event with modern sprites
  • Photos now show Hailey's winter outfit if the event triggers in winter
  • Contains original sprite sheets that replace outdated photo-specific sprites that are not found in Hayley's sprite sheet

🛠️ Installation Guide

**Required**

  • Make sure Content Patcher is installed

**Installation steps**

  • Download the module file
  • Unzip it into the Stardew Valley module folder
  • Launch the game and enjoy the optimized visual effects

🔧 Compatibility Notes

**✅Compatibility**

  • Will only conflict with mods that modify Polaroid photos of Hailey's Eight Hearts Incident

**⚠️ Notes**

  • Visual inconsistencies may occur if used with other mods that drastically change Hailey's outfit or overall appearance
  • Currently only tested on version 1.6 (if you use it on earlier versions, please tell me how you use it)

🎉 **Special thanks**

This is the first mod I uploaded, thank you to everyone who downloaded it! If you encounter any problems, please feel free to let me know.

**COMING SOON**: A complete mod to polish all of Hailey's portraits and world sprites, so stay tuned!

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.
