[@JackDuckGoose]

you should like this comment if you enjoy bananas

[@fitota]

can you make a video on how to add the mod? I have the game and the mod but I do not know how to add them together

[@JackDuckGoose]

@@fitota They moderators for the SOS:AWL page are really pushing people to utilize their new mod manager you can find here: www.nexusmods.com/storyofseasonsawonderfullife/mods/67 While making this video, I used a legacy tool of modding the game by unpacking the disc and adding mods that way. If you want, you can add me on discord or twitter and I can help!

[@cottoncandiez8872]

Didnt even know there was mods for this game

[@JackDuckGoose]

An excellent reason why I made the video lol

[@nidohime6233]

Everything has mods in PC.

[@DahniSmith]

Thankyou for giving a lovely shoutout to the modding community!! I'm so happy and excited and honored to have my mod featured in your video!! as for my favourite smells, I'm definitely a rain and thunderstorm smell enjoyer myself, when the air changes and gets kinda damp and things start to smell all rained on lol

[@JackDuckGoose]

Thanks so much for all your effort in making mods! As someone who doesn't have the skills to, it's awesome to see what people are able to do!

[@ColdHeadishy]

the retexturing mod is amazing! i may have to purchase a pc copy of this game just to get to use these

[@JackDuckGoose]

It goes on sale pretty often. I would wait until then lol quick edit: The game literally just went on sale for 50% on steam not 6 hours after replying to your comment lol

[@chainunchained3221]

Aaaa as someone who was in the thick of the early modding scene for this game, it's so freaking cool to see it get shouted out like this!!!

[@JackDuckGoose]

Gotta give the modding community some love for all the cool shit they can do lol

[@Dahcs]

That flora mod is genuinely a game changer, will definitely have to try it out soon!

[@JackDuckGoose]

For sure! I'll definitely be giving it a solid play through eventually lol

[@jdm608]

i've just been playing through the remake and had the original as a huuuge part of my childhood... the texture pack to make it look like the og version is perfect 🥺 it should've come as an option baked in the game !!!

[@JackDuckGoose]

That would be pretty sweet. I would gladly pay for DLC for something like that so it's accessible to everyone, not jut PC players and people who want to potentially brick their consoles lol

[@jaxy73]

My favorite smell is gasoline. I waited until the Flora mod was released before I bought this game because i wanted to make sure it was an option

[@JackDuckGoose]

Gasoline and Paint smell so good lol

[@PolybiusStreams]

My favorite smell is super specific. One time I found an incense stick that captured the smell of a can of sprite by a pool, I feel like I had a ratatouille moment of nostalgia. Also WHAT, I didn't know about the Flora mod and will be downloading immediately.

[@JackDuckGoose]

my favorite smell is also super specific. It's almost impossible to describe as it's a combination of smells, but I get a hint of it like once a year and it is always nostalgic lol

[@tobormax]

My favorite smell is coffee. Drinking it makes me physically ill, but I love the smell.

[@JackDuckGoose]

I'm right there with you, brother

[@Heathiekins]

My favorite smell? Lately, I've been trying to make healthier choices, and my doctor suggested making green tea once a day. (And drink it, of course.) Now that it's hot season here, I am putting a little fruit in my tea while it steeps and by far, my FAVORITE is peaches. The smell of my green tea steeping with peach slices in it is divine! It's such a nice way to start a day and now that I've been drinking it for a while, I'm feeling so refreshed! (Fresh rain smell is a VERY close second.) Another super fun video!

[@JackDuckGoose]

damn, I don't even like tea or peaches and you're making it enticing lol

[@doodledrew7039]

I actually have anosmia, so I can't smell anything; since birth!

[@JackDuckGoose]

That's crazy. That's like the double-edged sword of super powers. So often, I feel sick because I smell something gross, but I don't know if I could go totally smellless to get rid of that

[@vocaeien]

it's hard to pick a favourite of ANYTHING, but any cola, vanilla, or cherry smells feel sooo warm and satisfying. banana bread also goes really hard

[@JackDuckGoose]

Mmmm so fresh baked banana bread does smell great

[@IzZyVanDizZy]

My favorite smell is Flora being my wife. 😂

[@JackDuckGoose]

I bet she smells like dirt tho

[@IzZyVanDizZy]

@@JackDuckGoose Yes. Lovely dirt. 😍

[@CL-lx2pm]

I'm sore about all the great recolors available to pc players as a console player, but at the same time I'm so happy to see these games *finally* break into modding. Here's hoping for more compatibility in the future!

[@JackDuckGoose]

Fingers crossed! I know there are some switch mods out there, but they're a lot tougher to install lol

[@songlord]

awww the flora romance mod is such a game changer

[@JackDuckGoose]

It's definitely the coolest mod on my list, in my personal opinion

[@animalcrossingfan88]

i love the smell of chocolcate. chocolate layer cake yankee candles are always giving

[@JackDuckGoose]

W take lol

[@onivikky]

I LOVE the smell of rain, or before it rains? I believe it’s called petrichor.. Oh, also mangoes!

[@JackDuckGoose]

I'm a fan of dried mangos, but the real fruit I can't get used to lol

[@katiethefandomgirl4412]

Taco beef, it just smells good when my mom makes it. Also I commend these modders for being able to work with the limitations they had since modding SoS isn't easy in the slightest.

[@JackDuckGoose]

For real, modding this game is quite the feat. I wish the developers made it easier, but I don't expect that level of mod support from a Nintendo ambassador lol

[@cassidywilliams8498]

Always struggled with games like this as a kid due to my name. And it gets blocked out on Twitch 😂 love that thats a mod for us Cassidy's

[@JackDuckGoose]

If no one got me, I know modders got me lol

[@rancherlex]

I've come to appreciate the updated game textures / colors, but there is just something else about the OG look ❤

[@JackDuckGoose]

I feel you. If the mods didn't exist, I wouldn't complain at all. The fact they do exist is just a nice cherry on top lol

[@LyricWooten]

My favorite smell is this candle I bought a while ago called Gingerbread Cookie, it smells suuuper good ❤

[@JackDuckGoose]

My wife really likes the Mahogony teakwood candles from Bath and Bodyworks lol

[@Kristeen93]

I didn't know you could even do mods on the switch!

[@JackDuckGoose]

The switch is moddable, just a lot harder to do it than on PC lol

[@sanovictus]

what types of mods would you dream of for this game? Things added in, removed, tweaked, etc

[@JackDuckGoose]

That's a great question. I wont go so far as a Stardew Valley expanded type of addition, but adding in the characters from HM:DS would be dope. My "dream" isn't really a mod per se, but it would be the ability to install multiple mods the utilize the same resource directory or .lzs file. That way I can have the Flora mod installed AND the classic names mod at the same time.

[@Vic_Coco]

Not me thinking “YOU CAN MOD THE SWITCH?!” forgetting this is also on computer 😅

[@JackDuckGoose]

You definitely can mod the switch version, but I have no idea how lol

[@Maple.leaves]

I had no idea there was a bridge by the waterfall 😂

[@JackDuckGoose]

Well now you know lol

[@Mitchigon]

favorite smell......so hard to choose.....i guess...fresh strawberries?

[@JackDuckGoose]

I've never smell fresh strawberries but I bet they smell good lol

[@mrtingle13]

I personally love the retexture mod for us old folk, it just makes the game so cozy ❤ Also - fave smell has gotta be a tie between either fresh peaches or freshly baked bread.

[@JackDuckGoose]

It really is a game changer lol. P.S. I wish I was good at baking bread just for smells

[@WorklessProductions2]

id been procrastonating on playing the remake because i found it to be TOO bright and colourful, so im definitly gonna look into the texture pack mod, thanks so much! cant wait to play it again :3

[@JackDuckGoose]

It's pretty great! It really does make the experience more relaxing lol

[@Daniluvsmoomoos]

my favorite smell is the smell of cake batter being baked

[@JackDuckGoose]

Ouuu the slightly sweet vanilla aroma will get you going

[@kimmichelle24]

My favorite smell is Jasmine and Gardenias!

[@JackDuckGoose]

mmmm relaxing

[@ccheart8574]

My favorite smell is just-blown-out birthday candles.

[@JackDuckGoose]

Does it specifically have to be birthday candles or will any candle do the trick?

[@satines6045]

"tiktok brain" that's golden XD

[@JackDuckGoose]

I mean, there's a reason 13-17 year olds make up only 1% of my audience lol

[@cecillewolters1995]

I think my current favorite smell is opening up a pack of pokemon or yugioh cards

[@JackDuckGoose]

Dudeeee, I need to buy some Yugioh cards now lol

[@heartofdarkness666]

My favorite smell is bananas cause it makes me feel some type of way

[@JackDuckGoose]

dude, same. It's like you read my mind

[@animalcrossingfan88]

funny, but great, cuz i was literally scrolling the nexus mods page for this game too!

[@JackDuckGoose]

The mod library is pretty decent! A lot more than I thought there would be lol

[@tauau3571]

the old texture mod looks amazing!

[@JackDuckGoose]

I'm a big fan! Like an industrial sized one lol

[@Jasper_4850]

Favorite smell is fresh baked bread. Wish there were these mods on Xbox

[@JackDuckGoose]

Just need a GOTY edition like Skyrim lol

[@JEmpireQueen]

Developers should actually make Flora a dlc wife option!

[@JackDuckGoose]

I think the developers are done with AWL and are moving into making new titles unfortunately lol

[@Midnitethorn]

I'd love to see more of the Flora mod! I was so sad that they didn't include her as a bachelorette

[@Midnitethorn]

Also favorite smell.... that's so tough! When I am hungry its Ramen or any kind of Japanese food! But I also love the snell of fresh roses or a small fresh water creek/river

[@JackDuckGoose]

The next playthrough I do will probably be on twitch and I'll definitely do the flora route lol

[@danantonio9618]

Favourite smell: Rancid pickles at a dive bar

[@JackDuckGoose]

Better than the bathroom at a dive bar lmao

[@KatastrophicNoodle]

I'm waiting for a mod to give Cody his gains back.

[@JackDuckGoose]

same, it might be tough since all the mods I've seen only touch colors and don't actually add or subtract polygons lol

[@miscneilleaneous]

I like the combo smell of flowers and cedar.

[@JackDuckGoose]

Mmmm sounds nice lol

[@homesteadhero]

Mmm, favorite smells? I'm always keen on warm, homey smells: maple pecan, cinnamon buns, bonfires. That sort of thing! I sure do hope my soon-to-be wife, Flora, likes them too 😜

[@JackDuckGoose]

Those pillsbury cinnamon rolls you can put in the oven always hit the smell spot

[@homesteadhero]

@@JackDuckGoose You. You get it.

[@Lyana_of_Silarys]

It's weird but I love the smell of coffee while I absolutely can't stand drinking it. xD

[@JackDuckGoose]

I'm right there with you. I can never get into coffee lol

[@jessicamann4922]

My favorite smell is fresh baked cookies!

[@JackDuckGoose]

Mmmm delicious

[@avancarr8690]

Favorite smell is probably fresh cooked turkey. I'm actually apart of that modding community due to RF modding.

[@JackDuckGoose]

Nice! I have a lot of respect for modders as someone who has absolutely no clue how to make them lol

[@SnakeBuscus]

Favorite smell is pumpkin pie fresh out of the oven! I haven’t played any Story of Seasons but knowing it’s on sale has me wondering if I should try it!!

[@JackDuckGoose]

I would say it's a pretty solid game for $20. You can really sink a hundred hours into it if you're wanting to get the full experience. Also, I've never been a fan of Pumpkin Pie. I don't like my vegetables and sweets to co-mingle lol

[@courtneytatefigueroa1172]

Okay I do wanna comment my favorite smell! It's the black cherry merlot scent from Bath and Body Works.. also vanilla is a wonderful smell that'll never get old

[@JackDuckGoose]

My wife loves the Mahogony Teakwood from B&B lol

[@nidohime6233]

Is there a mod where there brought back how cow ranching worked in the original? In the remake they water down everything.

[@JackDuckGoose]

Unfortunately, the game files are set up in a way that makes modding outside of aesthetic changes super difficult. So, something that adds or removes mechanics such as death or sickness is almost impossible 😭

[@MiddayMusings472]

Vanilla or baked goods :) Also, your narration is very calming.

[@JackDuckGoose]

Thanks so much! You have a great taste in smells lol

[@MiddayMusings472]

@@JackDuckGoose Lol thanks!

[@sebastercats6123]

I've been on the prowl for old school video game mods, ranging from VTMB to GTA SA. If only the original HM: AWL was ported to PC, the community would've made tons of creative and QOL improvement mods that'll *probably* supersede the remake. I mean, look at Persona 3 and Advance Wars remake. Some of the community there believe playing the modded/rom-hacked original through an emulator is better than the remake itself. Oh, and favorite smell is pizza, no doubt.

[@JackDuckGoose]

I know there were a couple people working on Mods for the original edition emulator. I know there are some texture mods and "A Proud Life" which swaps the players character model so you can marry woman or men depending upon which game you use. Also, what are you putting on that Pizza, my dude?

[@sebastercats6123]

​@@JackDuckGooseGlad to know you're still around! Been binging your content every now and then, even as background noise. Oh, I'll be sure to take a look at those mods for the original on the emulator. As for the pizza toppings, anything meaty always taste and *smells* the best. Either pepperoni or meatballs, or all of them combined!

[@JackDuckGoose]

@@sebastercats6123 I nice pepperoni slice hits. Yeah I try to respond to every comment. I've been eyes-deep in recording, scripting, and editing a new video so I've only just now got some time lol

[@chaste2376]

i love the smell of a red dirt road after it rains

[@JackDuckGoose]

I've never seen red dirt. Only brown for me and it smells bad lol

[@chaste2376]

@@JackDuckGoose i live in the country haha, red dirt is all around, but mostly that was back in the day it’s all been covered up by gravel now sadly

[@Thurmod]

Big fan of the sponsor.

[@artificialdevil7828]

My favorite smell is cocoa butter lotion! But I actually don't like how it smells on me, I like it on other people (lol) Damn, that mining mod would definitely be a MUST have if I replay this game!

[@JackDuckGoose]

Lol thats very interesting smell-wise. The mining mod is pretty sweet. It makes gifting Carter and Flora a little difficult, since the mod essentially just effect their interaction radius, but it's worth it lol

[@Oohkamitama]

For my boy character, I typed in “Gino” as his name and they had it banned 💀 I was like, “what’s wrong with Gino? It’s not like it’s Dick” LOL

[@JackDuckGoose]

Yeah I have no clue how they chose which words or combination of letters aren't acceptable. So weird lol

[@willho4888]

I wonder if there's any mod to make creating hybrid crops ENJOYABLE! Damn it's so painful to create your hybrid seeds one by one and also having the chance to get regular seeds... I mean I play the game on my PS5 but if there's any mod that help you creating hybrid crops in a less stressful way or much faster please send it to me and I'll create a new save on my pc right away hahaha

[@willho4888]

Btw my favorite smell comes from the passionfruit

[@JackDuckGoose]

The only mod I could find was one that replaces 3rd gen crop names to their "actual" names so you don't have to name them yourself lol Here it is if you're curious: www.nexusmods.com/storyofseasonsawonderfullife/mods/46

[@JoyanneandLS]

Excited for some day to have mods that let me date Daryl because I am Like That

[@JackDuckGoose]

All the developers needed to do was add Daryl and Flora as Marraige options and then we could have had science lovers. Cotton candy is a solid smell lol

[@JoyanneandLS]

@@JackDuckGoose Exactly!!! Like!!! We could have had it allll! We all wanna date some sciencey people! 🥰

[@JackDuckGoose]

@@JoyanneandLS Fr, also apologies for the late reply. I've been nose deep in recording, scripting, and editing a new video and just had some time open up to reply to comments lol

[@JoyanneandLS]

@@JackDuckGoose Oh you're fine, dude!! I never expect replies back so this was a pleasant surprise for me!! 💞 Keep up the good work and I wish you lock with your newest video!!! Excited to see it!! >w

[@ayaya3182]

I love the smell of coffee

[@JackDuckGoose]

Honestly, same, but I hate the taste lol

[@squid24736]

my favorite smell is probably vanilla but I'm basic lol

[@JackDuckGoose]

Vanilla is a classic, especially in an old timey ice cream parlor lol

[@theenoogie]

Cheers for sharing!

[@JackDuckGoose]

Thanks for watching!

[@Creeampie833]

Flora mod! im sold lol

[@JackDuckGoose]

It's 10/10 istg

[@summerraylene]

My favorite smell is tomato vines :3

[@JackDuckGoose]

The previous owners of my house planted tomatos in our backyard and I have tons of vines lol. The squirrels steal the actual produce but vines are still present lol

[@summerraylene]

@@JackDuckGoose maybe the squirrels’ favorite smell is tomato vines too 😅

[@HighQualityHam]

You’re a beast! Best videos in the game

[@tentative4289]

I'm so beyond lost on modding this but I need the Flora mod ;~; A tutorial would be WONDERFUL god please

[@JackDuckGoose]

I will say that modding the game has changed a lot since this video came out, so I might have to do it even without the 1k likes lol

[@tentative4289]

@@JackDuckGoose I’d noticed some instructions seem to be a bit outdated when I tried last night! Either that or I’m even more lost than I thought… I’ve never had such difficulty modding a game before haha. I can’t imagine how hard it must be for modders to even make them. I’d super appreciate a tutorial if you did decide to make one!! 🙌 So glad to see play throughs of my favorite childhood game though, excited to watch through yours until I can get my mods figured out! :D

[@kas1790]

Wow,… is your name “Kassandra.” How did you know??😂😂 well you gained a subscribe for that. My favorite smell? Something citrusy.

[@JackDuckGoose]

What can I say? I went to college to get more knowledge. I do love a lemon scent, that's for sure lol

[@hankis2043]

Are you going to 100% other farming games like rune factory

[@JackDuckGoose]

I most definitely will be doing more 100% playthroughs. Right now, Stardew Valley is my big focus, but I'm weighing up a couple games for my next, new series
