Metalcore Goes Cottagecore is fully compatible with expansion mods like Stardew Valley Expanded, Ridgeside Village, and plenty of others.

Please report any incompatibility with other mods.



Compatibility is an ongoing project. Right now Cambria has dialogue for a handful of custom events and with certain add-ons.

Updates in the short term will add more conversation topics and more dialogue that will have a chance to trigger if a mod is installed.

Beyond more compatibility content, there are plans to add more crops and NPCs to expand not only Cambria's story, but Orchid's as well.
