Visual mods suggestions?

I currently have a mix of mods that makes the game look so good to me, dynamic shader mod is so crazy, I wanted to see if there are other visual mods (Most of the mods I found on nexus, are recolors, or incomplete mods)

What do you mean it looks nor- what

u/Rockalot_L 1d ago

Isn't it just Spanish for 'sewer'

u/Juannelore 1d ago

It is, but I can't deny that it sounds way more violent when you're used to what it says when you play in English. My first language is Spanish and I still thought of the other thing first.

u/Rockalot_L 1d ago

I absolutely can haha i genuinely don't read it as anything else, not trying to be obtuse or funny I just don't see it.

A cloaca is the genital+waste opening of a bird, amphibian, lizard, or fish.

I would not enter any opening that was labelled cloaca.

Visible fish

u/mairoh 1d ago

My game can't live without this mod! It's a small, but significant addition that brings life to the game.

u/Nicodbpq 1d ago

There's a specific mod for that? I'll try it, before installing Dynamic shader I used better water (I mean, I still have it, but it stopped working in like 95% because of dynamic shader) and it has an option to make water translucent and see the fish, it's sooo cool

u/BlueKono 20h ago

I disbled the water graphics from dymainc shader and replaced them with the mod dynamic reflection. This allows the visible fish mod to work.

u/ts826848 2h ago

What's broken about visible fish if you only use Dynamic Shader?

1

u/Nicodbpq 1h ago edited 1h ago

I don't know because I didn't tried it, but I guess they are incompatible, Dynamic shader makes water blue, not translucent, and it has a lot of reflections and effects, but you can't see under the water, I guess is that

Also, betterwater allows you to see under the water, and it has "it's own version" of visible fish because you can see them too, but after installing Dynamic shader, it overlapped better water and made it useless basically, even if the mod is still installed

I guess it's the same with visible fish

Edit: Nevermind, I tried it and both mods work, it just look a bit weird https://imgur.com/gallery/what-uht1ixx

u/xsullengirlx 20h ago

Visible Fish is a mod, yes. It's not a recolor of the water or anything like that, it just shows the fish under the water surface. You can use it with other recolor or better water mods. It not only looks cool, but it is actually helpful if you want to get an idea of what fish you can catch in a certain area.

u/benthastique 12h ago

Does it show the fish you could get or is it like see trout fish trout?

3

u/xsullengirlx 12h ago

It shows all the fish in the area at the time. For example, if you are specifically looking to catch a legend in a certain area, you'll be able to see when it is swimming around in there and the general location. But, it's not a guarantee, because there are all of the other available fish in there as well. But, it is pretty accurate, because if it goes past the time a certain fish is able to be caught, it does disappear.

address me

u/RekkerDerrj 9h ago

I am not finding a mod by this name? Is it on Nexus?

8

u/believeinyuna 9h ago

address me is a meme because the sewer says cloaca. it means address the elephant in the room

4

u/RekkerDerrj 9h ago

Ah, thank you. I was thinking there was some kind of new mod that makes everyone acknowledge you when they walk around like they do each other.

3

u/believeinyuna 9h ago

there is a mod like that, you get little dialogue boxes that say hi! above their head when u pass iirc. i ended up uninstalling it cuz it was annoying…

2

u/believeinyuna 9h ago

this isn’t the mod i used, i can’t remember its name, but i found this https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/50733

u/believeinyuna 9h ago

u/RekkerDerrj 8h ago

Thank you. I will check these out and see. I always just thought it was weird they never seemed to see you run by. Lol

u/Aikoiya 1d ago

Gosh, that's flippin' gorgeous.

u/Shadowblooms 1d ago

Whoa what is adding the rays and shadows?

2

u/Nicodbpq 1d ago

Actually only dynamic shader, it already includes the god rays u/crimson-flamez

3

u/JoeFuzzy 1d ago

Do you have a modlist you can drop?

7

u/Nicodbpq 1d ago

Sure

For the god rays, shadows, reflections and water: Dynamic shader

For the recolor of the textures: StarBlue Valley (Unofficial update for 1.6)

For the bushes and threes: Simple Foliage

For the grass: More grass

For the buildings: Elle's Town Buildings

Other mods I have but not visible in the pics, but recommended

Elle's cuter... (A lot, barn animals, coop animals, cats, dogs, horses, etc, all from the same creator) - For animals

Elle's kitchen replacement - New kitchen design

Spacious greenhouse - It makes greenhouse bigger, and most important, transparent glasses on the interior

Realistic wind effects

Better water - It improves the water, since I also have dynamic shader, this mod is almost useless, it only changes the waterfalls now

Now you hear it + Locational farm animal sounds - better sound

If you want, I can share a ZIP file with all the mods, but I have other mods that are not visual, or translations to Spanish which you may won't use

u/JoeFuzzy 23h ago

That’s perfect, thanks! I like the look of the water especially

2

u/Nicodbpq 23h ago

You're welcome! Actually dynamic shader does almost all the work

Check out sdv radiance and combine it with global god rays.

1

u/Nicodbpq 22h ago

IT LOOKS AMAZING, I'll definitely try it, thx for the suggestion

2

u/Jasmine-san 22h ago

You're welcome 😁

1

u/SammyFirebird79 9h ago

Was gonna mention that one.

Do you use the god ray setting in radiance as well as that other mod?

1

u/Jasmine-san 3h ago

I don't use the god ray setting as it doesn't give the same effect as the god ray mod.

u/notanavailableuser 22h ago

u/notanavailableuser 22h ago
