Add Mr. Qi as a friendable NPC
Friendable Mr.Qi Lite
✨ **Let the mysterious Mr. Qi become an NPC you can befriend! ** ✨
Ever since I started playing Stardew Valley in 2018 and discovered Mr. Qi, I've been hoping that he would become a real NPC. Even though he doesn't have much in the game, he's definitely my favorite character. After starting modding in 2022, I realized I could make this dream come true - now you can interact with the man in blue too!

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)
- Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
- Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
- 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.
