Fostoria
Fostoria is a new location for SV accessed by walking through the bus tunnel to the west. Fostoria is home to three new NPCs, two shops, new areas to forage, and much more to discover. Fostoria is a stand-alone mod, but it can be combined with other LLT3 mods. We especially recommend using Fostoria with Stoffton because Fostoria allows you to walk to Stoffton without having to repair the bus.
Fostoria can be found on Nexus Mods here.
Maps
Fostoria ships with three different sized maps. All of the maps are the same width, but they are different heights. The Small Map is 2/3 the height of the Big map. The Tiny map is only 1/3 the height of the Big map. When you first download the mod, it is set to use the original or "Big" map. To use a different map, you need to change the config.json file included in the mod folder. See the directions in the Configurations section below.
Map Name | Size | Image [spoilers] |
---|---|---|
Big | 120x120 | |
Small | 120x80 | |
Tiny | 120x40 |
Locations
Fostoria has four main locations, no matter the map size.
Note: If you are using Fostoria with Stoffton, you have the option to move Remmington's Fish Shop to Stoffton. If you do so, the location in Fostoria will be empty.
Pori's House
Magic Shop
Fish Shop
Ruined Shop and Greenhouse

Setting | Description | Options |

Small = uses the medium sized map (120 x 80). Tiny = uses the smallest map (120 x 40). |
MoveRemmington | Remmington is a new NPC who sells fish from a shop in Fostoria. If you have both Fostoria and Stoffton installed, you can choose to have him move his shop to the main street of Stoffton. He performs the same functions in either location, this setting is a matter of personal preference. | true = (default) If you have BOTH Stoffton and Fostoria installed, Remmington will be based in the larger town, Stoffton. If you have only Fostoria installed, Remmington will remain in Fostoria.
