Tale of Two Hearts is here! AAAAAH! I'm so excited and nervous at the same time. Download links are in this post.
With this mod installed, Harvest Moon: The Tale of Two Towns will continue to be the game you know and love... but queer. š³ļøāš
Date, marry, and start a family with candidates of the same gender
Rewritten pregnancy and childbirth scenes for non-fertile couples
Alternative scenes available for trans-inclusive pregnancy
Various text edits to reflect candidates' new sexualities
Corrections of a couple typos and portrait usage errors found in the base game
Changed "fisherman" achievements to "angler" to be more gender inclusive
Howard is now nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns
Alisa acknowledges that she's asexual
This mod can be installed with Citra or LayeredFS. For both methods, you must already have a copy of the North American English release of the game. (ID: #0004000000047900)
For Computer
Download, install, and set up the Citra 3DS Emulator.
Make sure your game's installed and runs properly.
Unzip the mod. The password is LGBT.
Move the two folders ("exefs" and "romfs") into the appropriate Citra mods location as described in Citra's official mod installation guide.
Tips:
The game runs best at native resolution. Attempting to upscale with Citra will cause ugly gray outlines and broken sprites. Skip the opening video; for some reason, it doesn't play well on emulator. These are known issues with emulating this game and are not caused nor solved by the mod.
When viewing your game library in Citra, right-clicking on the game will give you various shortcuts specific to that game, including a link to the game's mods folder.
For 3DS
Jailbreak your 3DS if you haven't already. Here's the simplest, most straightforward guide I've found.
Install LayeredFS on your 3DS. If you followed the above guide, it'll already be installed.
In your Luma settings, make sure LayeredFS mods are enabled.
Unzip the mod. The password is LGBT.
Move the two folders ("exefs" and "romfs") into the appropriate LayeredFS mod location as described in LayeredFS's patch installation instructions.
Tips:
You're going to need access to an SD card reader. Most laptops have an SD card slot. It looks like a thin rectangle.
Your 3DS comes with a card inside a slot labeled, "SD Card." On my device, it's on the side near the circle pad.
For Both
When installed correctly, you should see two folders in the game's mod directory called "exefs" and "romfs." If the mod directory is the game's ID number, you know you're in the right place. If installed incorrectly, the mod won't do anything.
You'll know it's working when the game's title screen has changed. There's a big rainbow like the one pictured at the top of this post.
If you ever want to uninstall the mod, just delete the files from your mod directory.

Main Mod
MEGA
Alternate Pregnancy
The masc hero will be able to become pregnant and the fem hero will be able to impregnate her wife. To use, first install the main mod and then this file. Let it overwrite files in the main mod.

I found an issue. What do I do?
Let me know. There's bound to be typos and other mistakes in any large project. Dialogue errors found in the unmodded parts of the game are also acceptable submissions. You can shoot me a message via an ask or DM.
Send a screenshot and a brief description of how you got there. If you also send me your save file, I'll be able to deal with it faster.
I don't want to make people download a million new versions of the mod, so once I collect a decent number of fixes and/or a reasonable amount of time has passed, I'll release an update.
Is this compatible with previous saves?
Yep! This mod doesn't affect saves. However, because of the way the mod works, while installed, your character will effectively be swapped with the hero of the opposite binary gender. In other words, if your character is a straight woman before installing, after installing, your character will become a gay man. Upon uninstalling, your character will be a straight woman again.
Is there a way to continue an unmodded save as the same gender?
No, not unless somebody figures out how to safely edit the saves.
How can I show appreciation?
Send me a message! Sweet messages are always appreciated and keep me going. š Feel free to tag me in posts showing how you're enjoying it. If you should feel so inclined, I've also enabled tipping on this post, however tipping is completely voluntary and this mod is and will always be free.
How do I get Citra/Luma/LayeredFS/whatever software to work?
The appropriate guides are linked up in the "Installation" section.
I can't unzip the files! It's asking for a password?
Read the "Installation" section.
Where do I download the game?
From the Nintendo store. While I am in support of ethical piracy where creators aren't hurt, I won't supply another answer.
Can you add X feature to the game?
You can ask, but the answer's probably, "Not without a great deal of work," which I likely won't take on unless I was already planning to.
How do I mod X game?
Every game is so different that I can't tell you, however GBATemp is a great place to start.
Finally! A mod to let you marry your favorite same-sexed Bachelors and Bachelorettes in Harvest Moon: Animal Parade for the Nintendo Wii!
This mod replaces the Male playable character models with the Female ones and vice-versa.
FEATURES:
Play as a āguyā and marry the Man of Your Dreams, or play as a āgirlā and marry your one and only Best Girl.
All outfits have been swapped, so changing out of the default outfit shouldnāt break anything.
Graphics for stamina bar and map screen have also been replaced.
Dialog for bachelor and bachelorette heart events, marriage, and childbirth have been re-tooled to fit.
Game Title ID changed from RBIEE9 to CBIEE9 to be compatible with GameTDB integrations. (Thanks, @sgibbzā!)
Dolphin replacement texture pack to fix Logo and Load Screen Character Portraits. (Temporary solution until I can edit those TPL files reliably)
WHATāS NEW:
Nothing has changed other than the inclusion of Patch v0.2b. This alternative patch should correct the issue that many people have run into when attempting to install the mod. Please try version B if the original patch did not work for you.
DOWNLOAD:
Fresh Install: (Recommended)
Harvest Moon: Pride Parade Patch v0.2
Harvest Moon: Pride Parade Patch v0.2bĀ [NEW!]
Optional Logo and Load Screen Character Portraits:
Dolphin Replacement Textures
WHAT YOUāLL NEED:

(mac) multipatch
the patch (see above)
An .iso of Harvest Moon: Animal Parade for Wii (I canāt provide a download link.)
HOW TO INSTALL:
Run multipatch(mac) or xdelta UI(windows) (the screen both give you should basically be the same)

For āsource fileā or āfile to patchā, select your Animal Parade .iso file
Choose the location/filename to save it as. Anything is fine as long as it ends in .iso

In Dolphinās āGraphicā settings window, click on the āAdvancedā tab
Check āLoad Custom Texturesā
GETTING AN ERROR? CLICK HERE FOR TROUBLESHOOTING!
(hopefully this link will no longer be needed. please let me know if the v0.2b patch works or not before you try this old āfixā)
SCREENSHOTS:
TO DO:
Any screenshots of dialog you find while playing that needs to be changed would be a huge help! Send āem my way if you find any!
KNOWN ISSUES:
Iāve gotten reports that the mod may not work on an actual modded Wii. I will look into this, but finishing the mod first is my main objective.
All animations are still tied to the āoriginalā gender.
Some of the dialogue/text has not been changed, such as some events and the names and descriptions of the outfits.
Children may still refer to you by the wrong name (i.e. āmomā for the male character). I think Iāve figured out how to fix it, but havenāt implemented it yet.
This version still contains the awkward, unfinished version of Juliusās rival heart event. I apologize for this.

Found a bug? Wanna help? Submit Screenshots? Just wanna gush about your new in-game waifu or husbando? Contact me either here or on Twitter: @frogglegged.
So, I just spent a good few hours finding the proper rom and getting the right patch, and then doing alot of trial error to figure out how to get the patched rom from my desktop computer over to my phone or steamdeck, but Iām testing it now on my steam deck and I can happily say iāve made an easy already patched download of the rom for anyone who has been struggling to get it all working by themself! āŗļø
I made a dropbox account just for this link and the file literally used up ALL 2gb of space they offer for free šš but its well worth it.
The file is compressed so all youāll need to do is download it, unzip and drop the extracted iso file into your dolphin(or wii emudeck) folder and BAM, it should load right up for you!!
Shared with Dropbox
Have fun farming gays and theys!
(I hope this link works for y'all too. If you have any trouble just let me know!)
