A Stardew Valley mod that automatically takes a screenshot of your entire farm at the start of each day.
Releases can be found at the following websites:
For Android users, releases can be found at the following websites:
- One screenshot is automatically taken of your entire farm every day as soon as you leave your house.
- Choose what time the screenshot gets taken.
- Choose how often a screenshot gets taken (daily, weekly, monthly, etc).
- Screenshots are sent to your StardewValley/Screenshots folder, with each save file getting its own "FarmName-Screenshots" folder. Screenshots between multiple save files will not get mixed up.
- Easily access the screenshots in-game by scrolling to the bottom of the "Options" tab in the menu and clicking the "Open Destination Folder" button.
- Super easy to gather screenshots to create a GIF that shows how your farm changes over time! GIF makers can be found online, such as ezgif GIF maker. Here is an example.
- Keeps the screenshots in the correct order to make creating the GIF easier. This is achieved by naming each screenshot with a "year-season-day.png" numerical format. For example, on Year 1, Winter, Day 3, the screenshot would be named "01-04-03.png".
- Keyboard shortcut that takes a screenshot when pressed (set to "None" by default).
- Can choose to disable automatic screenshots for rainy weather days (takes a screenshot every day regardless of weather by default).
- Custom configuration options, including ability to add multiple custom rules! See below.
- Install the latest version of SMAPI.
- Download this mod and unzip it into Stardew Valley/Mods.
- Run the game using SMAPI.
- Works with Stardew Valley 1.4 or later on Linux/Mac/Windows.
- Works in both single player and multiplayer.

Note: Older configuration files will automatically be upgraded to the newer format
