Abigail's Egg Hunt Rival!! - Stardew Valley Expanded (3)

[@LadyShelab]

Hi all, just wanted to let you know I have been reading your wonderful comments on the last two episodes and wanted to let you know that any suggestions for those will be implemented (provided they don't fall out of my brain) in episode 5 as the first 4 were done as a batch. Thanks so much for watching!!

When the inventory is open (whether just yours or yours and a chest's), in the upper right hand corner of the inventory screen is a tree like button. Clicking on it opens the CC room bundles for rooms/fish tank/bulletin board that you have unlocked by completing previous bundles. Hover over an item in your or your chest's inventory, and if that button starts pulsating... it is needed for a bundle you have unlocked.

SDV 1.6 - Nope, no catching frogs, that is an Expanded addition. Book Seller is a 1.6 thing - loads of interesting books for perks! In fairness, SDV Expanded plopped a house and some other pathing changes right where an additional sign with the arrow would have been. Friendship hearts tab for pets and farm animals was added in 1.6 General gameplay notes: Spring Seeds (packets) are actually the Spring Forage - the tooltip tells you that it contains an assortment of wild spring seeds. The Mixed Seeds are the ones that will give you a random seasonal crop. To see CC Bundle Info open your inventory - look for button to the right that looks like a tree. Click it to see CC bundles - note that it also flashes when you mouse over things in your bags/chest that are donatable. P.S.: Never feel bad about pulling up the wiki!!! I've got 6,739 hours invested in SDV and I still need the wiki because I simply can't remember everything all the time!

when you go into your inventory the 4 buttons on the side the first one is where you can see things you need for the Community Center

You can also find books from other sources other than the bookseller. Sometimes you might get duplicates of them, so you can either just read them again, trade them to the bookseller for some nifty items, or you can use them as gifts (certain books being liked or loved by a few villagers) As always, awesome video ❤

you make a scarecrow for your cauliflowers so crows dont get them. A Scarecrow will protect the surrounding circular area of 249 spaces; 8 spaces each to the north, east, south, and west, as well as 6 spaces each to the northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest. In other words, it protects a 17x17 area, excluding 10 spaces in each corner.

To get hay, you must build a silo... all hay you harvest goes automatically into the silo(s) until it (or them) is (are) filled. To manually empty a silo you need an animal barn/coop that has NOT been upgraded to the final version.... Manually empty the silo so that you can gather more hay. It does not matter where in the game you are, if there is room in a silo, the scythe puts the harvested hay into the unfilled silo.

Okay, in the first video you did you said you were going to ignore the small "quests" on the bulletin board, but you should not do that. If you go into Lewis's house next to the divorce book on the left is a prize machine where you can cash in tickets. The bulletin board quests don't always award tickets but it is worth checking from time to time as the rewards from Lewis are usually VERY good. You NEVER need your scythe outside of the farm now that you have a sword. The scythe is only useful for gathering hay after you build a silo. So leave the scythe at home and take the hoe, in fact, unless you're actually planning on going into the mines you don't even really need your pickaxe when out walking around.

Bookseller is in a small park NE of Joja Mart... it may be blocked by a fallen tree (iron ax needed or a chair)

Hiya Shelab, I have been a subscriber for sometime and thoroughly enjoyed many a let's play of yours - thrilled to see you back on SDV - may I just throw in a reminder to check the rubbish bins (not infront of people mind you) - you can get some great items from rubbish bins - I hope you enjoy this play through as much as I enjoy watching you play - thank you for fab content and lovely narration as you play - cheers ❤

Spring seeds (any seasonal seeds) are foragables... which can be used as gifts, make more seeds, or to complete CC bundles. I tend to plant the seeds to make more foragables so I can make even more seeds. The seeds are useful for making a plant that I and you Brits love to brew the leaves of for a drink... that sells for less than it used to, but still is a decent moneymaker... Caroline 2 hearts door off kitchen. She and Linus are always my first two main friendship goals... Mixed seeds are the seeds from former garden/farm crops (cauliflower/ turnip/potato, etc... Never got a seed that needed a pole or trellis).

Yes, you can look at what's needed for the Community Center from your inventory menu. It is the top right button that looks a bit like a tree above the toggle of chest color, add items, and organize buttons. It also flashes when the cursor hovers over a required item.

Protective radius of scarecrow - up to 8 spaces if I remember correctly.

[@shdwbnndbyyt]

Just a reminder, opening the inventory or a message or a chat with a npc allows you to stop the clock. Great if you need to brainstorm or explain something to us... without wasting the precious planting/fishing/task times (usually 48 hours when posted on bulletin board). Or if nature calls, as it often does in my case (either me or my pups, the younger sister 7 year old Ginger pictured to the left of my comment, her 9 year old full brother - shorter haired as he takes more after their chihuahua daddy than their Australian Shepherd momma, needing time away from the room... them to the outside to visit their favorite spots)....

The most helpful tip I ever got when it comes to fishing is to use your keyboard instead of your mouse to adjust the bobber, the secondary key for left clicking is default set to c. Another tip is to mostly course correct by tapping instead of holding (There are exceptions of course but for easier fish it makes it simpler to do the tiny adjustments you need) And lastly! Like you mentioned yourself, it will get easier! As you level up in fishing your bobber gets bigger. If you want to skip through the early levels Willy's offers a new(ish) rod called the training rod which increases the bobber size to what it would be if you were level 5 in fishing, although it makes it so you can't catch more expensive fish.

Make sure to fish at different times of day, and in different weathers. Some appear only in certain seasons

[@benji8000dk]

Saw someone play this game it’s called On Your Tail - it looks so good. Very beautiful ❤️

[@TRRT-x5p]

Another great video! Thank you!

[@shdwbnndbyyt]

Me, I always have to buy the training fishing rod (25 gold), limits what type of fish can be caught (basic only), but gives a lvl 5 fishing bar. And to make catching fish easier for me, I keep the left button pressed down while waiting for a bite, then release it to set the hook. Easier on my arthritis, though it does force me to change hands sometimes. I tend to make comments as I watch, pause video and make comment... otherwise something is likely to come up... doggies want a walk, chickens need checked, scammer phone call (most common type I get), that makes me forget. I tend to remember things I have done or read... I do try to be helpful, although it has been somewhere between 4 and 8 months since I played any Stardew Valley extended.. and the farm you have was not downloadable then.
