StardropForked for Linux

Unofficial fork of Stardrop with custom changes

Overview

StardropForked is an unofficial version of the Stardrop mod manager made for Linux users.

It includes custom changes and adds support for Flatpak, a popular software packaging system on Linux.

This version is still in alpha, which means some features may not work perfectly yet.

However, basic functions like adding mods, checking for updates, choosing mods to use, and updating profiles in the Flatpak version are working.

This software works alongside SMAPI (Stardew Modding API), which helps manage mods for Stardew Valley.

StardropForked keeps a non-destructive connection with SMAPI, so you can uninstall the mod manager without harming the game or your original mods.

It also supports multiple profiles, which lets you create different sets of mods for various play styles or multiplayer sessions.

StardropForked is made for Linux users who want to manage Stardew Valley mods safely and easily, especially those using Flatpak or devices like the Steam Deck.

Since it is an alpha release, users should read the homepage instructions for Flatpak use and report any issues they find to the developer.

Though it seems stable, there are no safety guarantees.

In summary, StardropForked fits well for Linux gamers wanting Flatpak mod support and a safe, flexible way to manage Stardew Valley mods.

It’s a useful tool for anyone looking to organize mod profiles without risking damage to their game installation.
