    I FOUND A BUG! (kudos if you know where that's from)

    When fishing for Scorpion Carp at Calico Desert, I only get trash, no fish.

      Bad RNG/luck.

      I pulled up Scorpion Carp just fine with this very same mod installed. Just keep trying, it can take 5-10 casts before you hook a fish instead of trash.

      I started a playthrough right after I posted this mod, and I've since gotten the Stardrop involved with catching every fish (INCLUDING the two new 1.1 fish).

        So bad luck, not a bug...okey dokey...really bad luck. I fished for about 2 in game hours...all trash.

          Asanagi_Bloodrage Yeah, You!

          I'm having an issue with Xylia's easier fishing (standalone). Not sure if this is the right place to ask...

          http://community.playstarbound.com/resources/easier-fishing-standalone-1-1.4226/

          Basically, I load up my game. Go to the nearest pond, cast my rod out, and wait. When I get the ! I click to trigger the mini-game/catch the junk...and my game proceeds to crash.

          I tried to switch it back to my old Fish.xnb and it's still doing this.

          What have I screwed up? Am I gonna have to do a fresh install on my game? </3

            This shouldn't be happening.

            Can you please do the following (assuming you are running Windows):

            1). Navigate to Stardew Valley\Content\Data\
            2). Shift+Right Click somewhere in the explorer window.
            3). Click "Open Command Line Here" (or whatever it says to that effect)
            4). Type this:

            Code:
            dir /w
            And hit the enter key.

            5). Screenshot the result.
            6). Crop the Command Line window (or paste the whole thing if you don't know how to do that).
            7). Upload the image.

            I want to make sure you are not naming it Fish.xnb.xnb basically. Sometimes when you rename files that have a recognized type, like if you have something.txt and you try to rename it to something_more.txt, you'll get "something_more.txt.txt".

            EDIT: Your Command Line output should look like this (ignore the Fish_original and Fish_1.1original files):

              When i am back i will look into fixing the dropbox file that is currently the download link to the mod and update it to 1.1 .
              Thanks to @Xylia for all the work that he/she put into it.

              (will be looking into updating super easier fishing, easier fishing, harder fishing.)
              Will link @Xylia her post if the mod ever gets outdated again.

              Suspect it to be fixed in a few days

                I assume this is an issue with the mod, but the game crashed on me while trying to catch a Slimejack. I had already caught a carp and a few trash then my next catch the game just quit. I running on a Mac through steam.

                  What mod did you download? The one from Page 1 of this discussion thread? It's outdated (or did he update that yet?). You want the Repo version of Easier Fishing (Standalone). It's in the Game Mechanics section (and there are links in the last couple pages).

                    Didn't fix it yet, HAve quite a bit to do irl. Just download the standalone version of @Xylia for now.

                    EDIT: Should stop promising things ._.

                      I obviously did something wrong and now I can't fish in the game, it crashes everytime.
                      I am sad and need some help! :(

                        Can u help me once again? :D
                        I just updated stardew valley and the mod doesn't function anymore.
                        And as u already knew, the Super easier fishing mod is still too hard for me so.
                        I would like to ask if you could tell me how to change the data to make it even easier :D xD

                          All I'm getting is trash. I haven't caught a single fish since I installed this mod. What did I do wrong?

                            *points to the above post of mine with instructions on how to check to see if you renamed something badly*

                            Also, the mod on the front page here is probably out of date; the one I have was updated.

                              I'm having an issue with this. I'm not able to catch two fish, the Void Salmon and the Slimejack. My game will crash every time I go to catch either of this fish.

                              Usually I wouldn't care that I can't catch two fish, but I need them to finish my fishing collection.

                                The mod in this thread is outdated (it's for 1.0, and the two fish you mention were implemented in 1.1). What you want instead, is this one: http://community.playstarbound.com/resources/easier-fishing-standalone-1-1.4226/

                                Just make sure you follow directions and/or turn off hide extensions if you're on Windows.

                                    I don't know if it's my slow reflexes, my mouse, my computer, or what. I don't even get to the minigame. I hear the cue, have tried everything I can think of. None of the tutorials say exactly what you have to do when you hear the little sound and the exclamation mark appears above your head. I've spent many days in game time this first year trying to fish and I don't catch anything. It looks like this will help with the minigame if I get to that, so thanks. I despair of having a nibble that counts for anything, let alone landing anything.....

                                      @SILKYM You click your mouse button when the exclamation point is over your head.

                                      You could just look at the Stardew Valley wiki for Fishing (source) that gives a guide on what you're supposed to do and what to expect.

                                        Does it matter which button (R or L) and where the mouse is when I click? If I'm doing it right, then I'm guessing that my wireless mouse may not get the signal over to the computer in time. I have lots of vision problems (retina damage) and nerve stuff especially in my hands. This fishing component is just defeating me--I've spend hours and wasted lots of trout soup. The other thing I really need is for the night scenes to be a little brigher and more contrasty. I get it that it's an extra challenge, but it's extra challenge for me in the daytime and indoor! :) But this game is so absorbing. I just want to catch fish. Like at all. At this point, just getting the hang of it...! getting to the mini game and getting that! Thank you. I did watch a half dozen tutorials on fishing in S.V. and I still just get my bobber back and nothing else. (That is called a bobber right?)
