Transforms Marlon into a real resident of Stardew Valley. He may seem like a cranky old man on the surface, but I promise he's a loveable darling underneath!
DISCLAIMER: Marlon says "hell" and "damn" quite a bit. If this bothers you, don't install the mod.
Features:
Full schedule and daily dialogue based on heart level.
Marlon at all festivals with variable festival dialogue based on friendship level.
2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 14 heart events.
Unique Marriage dialogue, plus the ability to override generic dialogue.
Spouse Room for Marlon.
Spouse Patio for Marlon.
Updated vanilla Marlon events.
Alternate portrait for Marlon in the style of DC Burger Portraits
Known Issues:
You can't invite Marlon to movies. Not sure why, yet, but I'm looking into it.
If you stand to the left of Marlon and kiss him (when married), his eyepatch and cape will magically switch sides. This is due to how the game creates the marriage kiss animation and, as far as I know, cannot be changed.
If you're married when you build a slime hutch for the first time, he will temporarily forget you're married for the duration of the event.
Installation: Unzip [CP] Make Marlon Real into your StardewValley\Mods folder Enjoy!
Config Options:
Override Generic Dialogue: (Options: true, false) This will override generic dialogue (ie, Flower Dance acceptance dialogue, bouquet and engagement dialogue, and marriage dialogue) with Marlon-specific dialogue. Defaults to false.
Portrait: (Options: vanilla, alternate, disabled) Chooses which portrait to load for Marlon, the vanilla pixel art, new art (in the style of DC Burger Portraits) or no portrait (for using with an external portrait mod). Defaults to vanilla.
call_me_kid: (Options: true, false) Option to stop Marlon from calling you "kid" (set to false and he won't call you kid). Defaults to true.
Compatibility:
Looking for Love: Should be fully compatible.
Romanceable Rasmodius: Fully compatible.
Karmylla's Maps: Should be fully compatible.
Stardew Valley Expanded: This is inherently NOT compatible with SVE and never will be. SVE makes Marlon an invisible non-entity and introduces a new character called MarlonFay. This mod turns Marlon into a complete character. In addition, Marlon's character in this mod is very different from SVE's Marlon.
