Album Pictures
As a farmer in Harvest Moon 64, you can have quite a number of memorable events happen to you. What better way to recall these times than with a snapshot from a professional? In HM64, however, pictures play an even more important role. There are 32 pictures in the game, in two seperate albums (16 pictures each). In order to earn these pictures, you must first trigger certain events in the game. If you succeed in getting all 32 pictures, a wonderful surprise awaits you. Rumor has it the Great Hall can be accessed. Below is the first album, and where you can find the first 16 pictures. You start the game with this album, so you can begin the process of collecting photos your very first day! Warning: These albums are still in their experimental phase, and have YET TO BE CONFIMED. If anyone -does- have the 2nd album, please e-mail me. Please do not expect perfection. Yet...
Album 1
(if you don't get the photo right away, check your mailbox every morning in the days following the event)
Grampa and You | You start out with this picture already in your album. |
Swim Competition | Get first place in the swim competition, which takes place in the Summer. |
Cow Festival | Enter your favorite cow in the festival, and win first place. A few days after the cow festival, some people from a neighboring farm will drop by. Agree to have your picture taken with the cow. Every day after that, check your mailbox. Eventually, they will send you the Cow Festival picture! |
Planting Festival | Be chosen as Harvest King, and go up in the hotair balloon. Having trouble being chosen? Keep living Spring 8th over and over again until you are chosen. If you aren't chosen that particular day, reset your game, and try again. Eventually, you will be picked. |
Horse Race | Win first place at the Horse Race, which takes place on Spring 17th, and Fall 28th. It may take a few years to train your horse to the level where he can compete. Just remember: brush your horse each day, and have him run around on your farm to exercise him. |
Hot Springs | Aid the carpenters each day in building the hot springs, during the winter. Make sure you're there that last day. They will take a picture with you to comemorate it! |
Dog Winner | Have your dog come in 1st place, during the dog race on the 19th on winter. Your picture will be taken. |
Home Improvement | Get every home extension possible. They can be purchased at the carpenter's house in the woods. |
A Baby Arrives | Wait until your wife gives birth to a baby. To speed the process, give your wife a gift each day, and arrive home on time. It takes about 1 season for her to become pregnant, and 2 seasons for her to give birth. |
Marriage | Get married! A photo will be taken to remember the event by. |
Popuri's Picture | Buy the blue mist seed, which becomes available at the Lilia's Flower Shop sometime during the summer of the second year. Popuri will help you plant it. Water it every day (don't miss a watering or it will die). After it blooms, talk to Popuri by the plant every day. After a few days of this, you will get the picture! |
Elli's Picture | Become good friends with Elli, bringing her to at least a yellow heart. One day, she will come to you and ask you to come with her. Do so, and she will bring you to the pond in the forest. The photographer will arrive on the scene. Check your mailbox for the next few days. |
Karen's Picture | During the first year, become good friends with the bartender, who can be found at the counter in the inn. One easy way to do this is to give him berries and talking with him frequently. One day, he will give you an old bottle of wine. Next, become good friends with the elves, by talking and giving them mushrooms. After your friendship with them is secured, throw a vegetable in the pond at the far end of the forest (travel upper-left) between the hours of 9:00am and 3:00pm. When the goddess asks if you would like to restore the farm, answer positively. Karen's tree will become healthy. Wait until fall (the wait could be as much as a year). One day, Karen will come take the picture with you. |
Maria's Picture | Have Maria to at least a yellow heart, and wait until the summer. You must be outside waiting for her when she stops by in the morning. She will ask to show you something, agree to go with her, and together you will travel and take the picture. |
Ann's Picture | Talk and give gifts to Ann until she is at least at a yellow heart. One day during the winter, either you will see her in the forest looking down at an injured rabbit, or she will come get you, and bring the rabbit to your attention. Agree to help the rabbit, and you will get the photo in the mail a few days later. |
Party Picture | You must be married, have a child, have all the home extensions, and be good friends with everyone in town. Also, you must have every other picture in the first photo album. A party will be thrown at your house, and a picture will be taken. |
Okay, so you got all 16 pictures from the first album, and this you're pretty hot stuff? You might want to think again. There are 16 more pictures that await you! In order to get the second album, you must first have the first album complete. Next, talk and give gifts to each of the harvest sprites in the cave each day, for quite some time. Eventually, they will hand over the second, blank album. After you get it, you can begin retrieving pictures for it.
Album 2
