A GIFT'S JOURNEY
How a gift reaches the game
Four stops, in under a second.
A viewer sends a gift
From TikTok, Twitch, Kick, YouTube or Starvios: a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.
OverInteractive
Receives the event, checks your active profile for the matching effect and sends it.
SMAPI + mod
SMAPI is Stardew Valley's mod loader. The app installs it along with the OverInteractive mod, which runs every effect in your save.
Stardew Valley · your save
The effect reaches your farmer instantly.
STEP BY STEP
Getting started
Everything happens from the game's status bar, at the bottom of the app.
- 1
The app finds your game
It detects Stardew Valley in your Steam library. If it lives somewhere else, press «Set path» in the bar below and pick it.
- 2
Install the mod in one click
Press «Install mod». The app downloads SMAPI, places it next to the game and puts the OverInteractive mod in the «Mods» folder. The game's executable is not touched.
- 3
Open it with «Launch game»
The app starts Stardew Valley through SMAPI, which is what loads the mod. From Steam the game opens without mods.
SMAPI's black window opens next to the game: that's normal and you shouldn't close it.
- 4
Load your save and wait for «Connected»
With the game open, the bar below switches to «Connected». Effects apply as soon as you load a save.
- 5
Choose what each gift does
In «Profiles» create an example one in a click or build your own: each gift, follow or chat command fires the effect you pick.
EFFECTS
What your chat can do
Each effect is assigned to a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.
Gold and items
Give or take gold, gift you a specific item or max out the day's luck.
The valley
Rain, storm, snow, wind or clear skies, changing the time of day or dropping forage around you.
Monsters
Slimes of every color, bats, crabs, ghosts, serpents, skeletons, golems… or wiping out every monster at once.
IMPORTANT
Before you go live
Always open it from the app
If you open it from Steam, Stardew Valley starts without SMAPI, the mod doesn't load and the bar stays at «Stopped». Use «Launch game».
Effects need a loaded save
Nothing applies on the title screen. With a menu open, during an event or a cutscene, the effect may wait until you get control back.
Your other mods stay as they are
The OverInteractive mod lives in its own folder inside «Mods». Installing or removing it doesn't touch your other SMAPI mods.
FAQ
No. SMAPI is installed next to the game without changing its executable, and the mod goes in its own folder inside «Mods».
You opened it from Steam, which starts the game without SMAPI. Close it and press «Launch game» in the app.
Yes. OverInteractive's is just one more inside the «Mods» folder and doesn't interfere with the others.
From the ⋯ menu in the bar below, «Uninstall mod»: the OverInteractive mod folder is deleted. SMAPI stays, and the game still opens normally from Steam.
Press «Set path» in the bar below and pick the folder where Stardew Valley is installed.
