thank you for you reply, here is my log. Portraits for Vendors and Seasonal Mariner To Mermaid are all up to date. But you updated it a few days ago, and it hasn't been updated when I tested it, and the time I tested it was 3.22, It still doesn't show the portrait. The character of a mermaid is normal.
Nope. I'll need to reupload. I just noticed that my folder structure got messed up when I was zipping. TY for asking! It won't hurt anything int he meantime, but that was not intentional.
Is anyone else having this problem? So far the Spring and Summer: green rain mermaids have been working for me, but the Summer mermaid isn't showing up. I still see the original mermaid.
Hi, Jenna! For unknown reason the game ignores the dependencies and loads mariner's sprite from Seasonal Cute Characters. The only solution I've found so far is editing [CP] Seasonal Cute Characters\assets\Code\ExtraNPCs.json and removing the mariner from there. It should look like this: "Target": "Portraits/Bouncer, Portraits/Grandpa, Characters/Assorted_Fishermen, Characters/Assorted_Fishermen_Winter, Characters/Bouncer, Characters/Governor, Characters/Henchman, Characters/LeahExFemale, Characters/LeahExMale, Characters/Marcello",
My mod is designed to override Seasonal Cute Characters. Did you experience this issue before the latest version? If it's not working for you, I'd like to figure out why. Would you mind sending a log? Also, if you're looking for a workaround, it's probably much easier to just delete their Mariner image rather than editing the JSON.
Hello! I enabled this mod, but my mariner didn't turn into a beautiful mermaid, and the portrait didn't show up when talking to him ...... I'm not sure why this is, I had invited Korobus as a roommate when I installed this mod. Here is my log .
Well, your log has a lot of errors, but none specifically from my mod. Your installation seems to have many corrupted portraits, as well as some other issues, so lets try to solve for the problem we can see, since it may be related. I would recommend the following to start with:
Back up your Mods folder somewhere else on your PC and completely clear our your Game Mods folders. You can find that folder here: D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods
Verify your game files through Steam (this is the store you're using based on the log).
Install SMAPI, Content Patcher, CJB Cheats, and this mod.
Create a fresh save for testing purposes.
Sleep until day 3 (guarenteed rain day) on the fresh save file and to warp to tidepools using CJB to verify the mariner sprite and dialogue is replaced by Sprynglynn the mermaid.
Add mods back in one at a time to ensure there are no conflicts. Please avoid using any mod that requires you overwrite game files. Mods should only live in the Mods folder.
Additionally, portraits will not appear unless you also install the Vendor Portraits mod. Portraits were added in the last update for compatibility with that mod.
If this does not solve the issue you are experiencing, please let me know!
I tried as you said and created a fresh save. Both saves installed the exact same mods, and then I found that in the new save, the mariner sprite and dialogue were replaced by Sprynglynn, while the original save still couldn't, and there were no errors in the log this time. Sad...
Thank you for taking those steps. I'm glad it cleared up the errors in your log, and it also confirmed the issue was a mod conflict. Dolphin Is Not a Fish very kindly pointed out a possible conflict with Weather Wonders, a mod in your log, so I've just uploaded version 1.2.2 which seeks to add compatibility with custom weather types. It worked in my testing, so I hope it will work with your save!
HI! i have a question. if you removed the rain requirement does that mean the mermaid will always be there? like its not just a rainy day thing anymore?
great question! it just means that if you're using a mod that adds special rain conditions other than than those in the vanilla game that would spawn the mariner, a mermaid will still replace the mariner under those conditions.
I wasn't sure if it mattered but when I unzipped the files it basically said the same thing as what was on the compressed files so I went and ahead and renamed the same thing as what I had downloaded previously which was (CP) Seasonal Mariner to Mermaid.
Thank you! The parent folder was missing. Recompressed and uploaded as 1.2.1 but the copy you downloaded is the the same, it just needed to be put in the correct top level folder.

Is this usable in a mutliplayer server where the host doesn't have it?
