Is that the full log in game? Cause it looks cut off. Also you should get rid of pytk if you don't really need it
It is, I think
Hm, maybe that Farm Decorations Mod you have conflicts with Grandpa's Farm? 
I'd try to fix the errors you're currently having and reinstalling Grandpa's farm
I'm guessing you're using a mod manager?
Are you following the instructions here? https://floogen.gitbook.io/stardrop/
Conceptually an API key is something that tells the website you’re trying to communicate with that your computer is “legit”
It essentially authenticates you as a valid user of nexus mods when Stardrop is trying to install mods on your behalf
Nexus itself doesn't let anyone do that, unless you have a premium membership
ah, yeah, i believe you can use the Vortex button with other mod managers (like Stardrop)
no idea, depends on how they have it set up, they could both require it or not
i didn't use Stardrop myself, nor any other manager
What are your hardware specifications?
Having a weird issue, where im taking lots of extra damage from monsters (50+ damage from a green slime) and I can't figure out whats causing it, It is a multiplayer game ("I'm hosting), and im the only one affected. I've disabled random mods to no avail, and a brand new game doesn't have the issue
Probably a dumb question, but if I put a bunch of mods into a folder within my SMAPI mods folder, that won’t affect anything right? Because I’m about to download a bunch of mods to get Ridgeside Valley and I’d like to put them into a folder so my list isn’t super long
maybe load order, but that's it

@dire fractal If you would like a guide to setting up mods for Stardew Valley, check out the getting started guide! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide
i saw that in pinned, thank you!!!
Check your defense values in the save itself
May need to save edit
!saves
Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.
is resilience defense?
uhhh let me get to my laptop to check
Is there any way u could reduce the number of this tile thingies? This happened after I installed medieval building, medieval sve, and flower valley. I tried removing each of these mods but it doesn't seem to go away.

yeah, resilience
I would suspect 0, yeah
Not sure though
You may also need to change it in the other file
It should be in both
It's likely also adjusted by the boots you have on
I should have asked you to dequip first
my knockback, weaponspeed, crit chance, and crit power are all also like negative values
Or calculate what the value is suppose to be based on your shoes and may be sword
Are you wielding anything?
Clubs especially
on my bar I have a galaxy sword + tools, and the +7 defense boots
Okay not supposed to be negative I think
Probably easier to dequip everything the calculations here is wonky
ill do that on next save
thank you for the help, any way to track down which mod did this to report it?
is this also completely out of wack?
that explains why i suck up all the crops while my friends are harvesting.. lol
I made the grave mistake of starting a farm on hilltop, and then expecting to have space to do things, and have been trying to figure out how to change farms. I found how to change the tilemap to the basic farm, but the uninteractible bushes from hilltop stayed, and I can't figure out how to remove them. I'm on linux
is there a standard way of doing this or am I just out of luck

@lyric sand Reset Terrain Features (https://smapi.io/mods/#Reset_Terrain_Features) is a mod that lets you reset, clear, or generate everything that spawns on a map using an in-game menu. That's especially useful when changing maps mid-save, as the debris will otherwise use the old layout (causing things like trees in the water or bushes blocking exits).
the dll just wouldn't load, if i used older version it would be incompatible

alright, I'm at my wits end. I'm using gwen's medieval craftables, as well as iridium recolors. Im having issues getting gwen's sprinkler to show because iridium recolors is overlaying it (have toggled it off to see if it was the problem mod). I have iridium recolors loading first, and gwen's still isn't applying. I've hacked up the content file to remove recolors that I dont want because the author didn't put in individual toggles for the mod. I even added a dependency and it's still not working. Theres still some things left in the content file but I'm not sure which one is the iridium sprinkler because none of them are labeled 😩 any further steps I can take? heres also a log https://smapi.io/log/4ff9704347254e67994b6ede03a62391 I could remake the content file with the idvidual items I'd like but again, I dont know which is which

Im trying to add "Siv's Marriage Mod" to my game but I got this message I went to https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher this link as the message said and found the alternative mod to use but its the same link that I downloaded the mod from originaly any help?
that's an old version try https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10206?tab=description
tysm :D
Trying to assist. Give me a few
I think I edited out the correct section for the sprinkler. Is it okay if I DM you the edited content file?
yes please!
Ah you may have to message me first. It won't let me message you
sent a friend req, my settings are that way, but not sure about yours as it wont let me dm you either lol
still nothin
You resent the friend request?
We're in the same server, so I'm not sure why you can't message me. That's so weird
ooh now try, it may have been on my end
I never toggled sdv server to allow messages from server members (even tho I have it on in the global settings)
i'll try reinstalling stardew ig
the thing is, i can't use dll at all, fixtv's doesn't work, sve doesn't work
Does anyone know if BFAV still works with the latest smapi?
what is the mod manager download? or do i just do the manual download? first time downloading mods for stardew!
Heyy
Im new here , can somebody please help me with the mods?
I installed some and worked , but there's still many that doesnt work
But i installed every mod possible , so i dont get it why i cant have it
I excluded and installed again but it doesnt work
h??uh ???
If somebody can help me i would aprecciated it
Thanks
not this one tho
do you have Custom NPC Exclusions downloaded?
i just realised i had no disk space on my downloads folder which is why it didnt download
you should generally always use the manual download, Mod Manager is Vortex which can cause issues when modding Stardew :)
oof
but thank you!
Portraiture does that, but it requires PyTK, which can impact game performance (but does not always do so)
so basically
- download Portraiture
- download some portrait mods made for portraiture
- when you're in game and talking to someone, press
Pto toggle between the portrait mods you've downloaded
so it stays on whatever portrait you toggled to last
next time you talk to that person it will be on the same portrait
when i unzip a folder to download a mod, do i just put the whole folder in the mods folder or the individual files inside that folder?
whole folder
thx
Hi! Im currently very new to modding stardew valley and I've kind of had issues when it comes to SVE. The thing is is when i go to start the game, 9/10 it says not responding. This is any time i'm simply trying to acess my save file from the main title screen. So i have to go and reinstall all the mods needed to work SVE and has even tried installing SMAPI. Everything seems up to date and i have gotten all the right additional mods, yet it rarely seems to work if i simply shut it down totally. I could really use some help since i'm a bit stuck when it comes to modding
I don't play SVE personally, but I do know it's large. Are you giving it time to load up?
Often when i do try and boot it up it seems to simply crash and can barely load in
!smapislow
For some players, SMAPI can take a while to launch the game. See this section of the troubleshooting guide for some common causes and possible fixes: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#SMAPI_takes_forever_to_load.21_.28Not_in_select_mode.29
I don't believe it's an issue with SAMPI, it runs fine but i can't get pass the loading screen every time i seem to hit my save file
- Grampleton Fields 1.14.6 because it requires mods which aren't installed (FlashShifter.StardewValleyExpandedCP).
Anyone know how to fix that?
do you have SVE installed?
hey im trying to install smapi but it says it cant locate the game, i downloded it from gog games so idk if its not gonna work since i got it from there
try uninstalling and then reinstalling SVE and Grampleton Fields
https://stardewcommunitywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started that has a section on how to set it up
Do you want to play Stardew Valley with mods? This guide is for you!
i looked there but its still acting up
https://stardewcommunitywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Launch_SMAPI_through_Steam_or_GOG_Galaxy did you install smapi this way?
This page explains how to install SMAPI (the tool which lets you use mods) on Windows. See also:
how to get rid of pytk without nuking 90% of my mods?
depends on what mods you have that depend on pytk/tmxl
there's a cf to dga furniture converter
question: if smapi has a duplicate object error for JA, will the object just not be added?
well. casually points to the number in my name
i dont know which mods need it
like at all, or just not by the second mod that adds it?
temporarily disable pytk by puttin a dot in front of its name and boot smapi, see which mods are disabled in your log
!log
@peak cargo Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
it won't break anything even if you do start the save
eek thatll be fun, gimme a sec
true true
just by the second mod that tries to add it
ok cool, tysm
i was under the impression it wouldn't be added at all
good to know

133 errors with pytk disabled
i may simply just suck it up and play with it
even if it takes 10 minutes for a save to load
how to fix :D
you only got 10 mods that are disabled without pytk
yes but it says 133 mods with warnings
it's 13 errors not 133
a lot of mods have warnings, it isn't pytk related
i see
in every log someone has shared you can see there's mods with warnings
someone may have even more than you without experiencing any sorts of errors, some mods just give internal warnings to smapi in case something goes wrong
let me take a look at your your log again
okay so all of your pytk mods are either furniture or hd portraits
basically yeah
and there is a tmxl free version of always raining in the valley on the east scarp discord
and i rly like the ports so :(
it works, i've been using it for months
uhh lemme get the download rq then
but yeah if you like your portraiture stuff it will be hard to get rid of pytk
unless you manually convert them to hdportraits which is a cp mod that allows higher resolution portraits
for the furniture there is a cf to dga converter if you are interested
that's all you can do
i might just suck it up honestly. while it takes 10 minutes to load the 10 minutes really isnt the biggest deal in the world considering i can just walk my dog and get a snack in that time
i feel like moving everything and converting everything is so tedious that it isnt worth it
does anyone know what this error might be from?

Oh not for my mod, for the kitchen one
the bug is on Dustbeauty's side
i have the content

im sorry this is so awkward but thank u for helping me lol
ohhh
i seee
oke oke
got it now i try again
thank u! it fixed the kitchen, i've just gotta work out the no clip mod now
sorry i should've checked the kitchen config before i asked, my bad

Hello! I've just downloaded Better Junimos, and have come across a problem. My Junimos have stopped harvesting, and I've set it to no payment, everything unlocked. It is raining and I have a few giant pumpkins, but the mod seems to account for that already? I only have infosuite, automate, chests everywhere, and the generic mod config menu.
is okee i skipped one of them before too
do you have "can work in the rain" enabled?
Yes
They all have those nice leaf umbrellas
They are actually planting too
Just refusing to harvest
what do you have planted
pumpkins
so they're only not harvesting the giant crops?
Every crop, yeah
There's an option to not harvest giant crops, I have that on
maybe if I turn that off, they'll start harvesting
Yes, they do start harvesting
I guess that option doesn't stop them from not harvesting giant crops, they just stop harvesting 😅
well pumpkin can make giant crops
so maybe it's preventing harvesting of crops that can become giant
yeah i think so
makes a lot of sense
yeah there is a setting to let certain crops sit and not be harvested for a chance of giant crop
the junimos themselves cant harvest giant crops
https://smapi.io/log/284e85003cab4fa3a73f8b988adf8b5a is anyone able to take a look at my log and see if they can figure out why it's throwing the errors? I'm stuck on the same day and it won't save. I started a new save with the same mods installed and there's no error being thrown.

might be unrelated but you have a bunch of mods that aren't installing cause you haven't extracted them properly
I removed those from the game because I wasn't using them but that was a week ago and the error at the bottom started today

ah ig i didnt scroll too far
and where can i find this?
tysm
yes i realize the folder shouldnt be in my mods and im working on it but im stuck lol. does the xnb file overwrite the current one in my content folder or did i already put it in there and not realize it?
you've gotten the xnb lecture?
ive had no lecture lol no

XNB mods often break the game and are not recommended.

Does anyone know how to use the custom spouse room mod? Im trying to move the rooms around but the coding wasn’t working right
there's a tutorial buried in the comments section
I'm guessing you've already found the example pack?
That mod has a CP version as an optional download
you might find this useful for checking you have the right numbers for the co-ordinates, if you're not already using tiled for that https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/7969
Really? I couldn’t find it. Maybe I was just over looking it 😅
I was talking to someone else about a furniture mod sorry
Oh my fault, I didn’t read the previous comment.
No problem 
Okay. I’ll check it out, but there’s something else I’m going to try as well. Thank you
guys i download a mod and it look like this why ?
!unzip is it a rar file?
Files with the extension .zip, .rar, or .7z are archive files, which you can extract to get the actual files inside. For a .zip file, just right-click (or long-press on Android) it and choose the option like extract or uncompress. For .rar and .7z, you need to install third-party software first, like 7-zip https://7-zip.org on Windows, Keka https://keka.io on macOS, PeaZip https://peazip.github.io on Linux, or ZArchiver https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver on Android.
turn on visible file extensions to check
is that from moddrop?
moddrop has been having issues recently
no nexusmods
it looks like that when you download a file while having windows explorer open. Just refresh
Can anyone tell me: if I get a duplicate object error in json, does that mean one of the objects will be added, or that neither will be added?
I’ve gotten that and still have the item
thanks @stable hornet ! that's a relief
Sometimes it does that if two mods have the same item
gotcha
can anybody help me with this problem please?

Cute valley mod needs to be updated, the moder said to ignore the message because it should still work until they get a chance to update it
pytk no longer works, so most moders are updating without it

Does anyone know of a way to disable NPC locations on the map for Ridgeside Village?
the configuration doesn't have an option for it
I think the mod comes with it
it should have a config option, you have to put in the names yourself, should be labeled "NpcExclusions": [],
i should note that, i have ABSOLUTELY no clue how to update the anime portraits even though i’m like 99% sure i downloaded it and it has 1.5 on the download thing but it’s still 0.5????
dont worry the update key is probably just broken in the manifest
are you sure you and your friend have the same mods?
no we don’t have all of the exact mods, but i’ll try downloading all of the mods she has
most of the mods she has is visual changes though
also you have both romanceable rasmodia and rasmodius
i couldn’t tell the difference between them, should i delete the rasmodius one then? (i’m only interested in rasmodia)
yes
gotcha
And how can i fix the cbj cheat ? Not fix but the mod tells u to use the key "T" to open the catalog so u can use but
But mine dont open, btw i think the majority of my mods doenst work even if he tells me that does
Rn im pressing P and nothing happens :(

Just repeating this here, as I'm unsure if it's something just I am having issues with, or if other people are having the same issue. I'm having issues with the Magic Scepter mod. Menu and clicking on stuff works fine, and it worked fine with no issues at all before the latest version of Smapi. The menu for it still pops up, showing that it's not completely broken for me. It just doesn't teleport anywhere with any of the other options aside from the farm. Did the mod partially break with the new update, or is it just me having this issue?
hello! https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8922 id love to use this mod for ridgeside village, but all of the files are in png form. ive tried putting it into portraiture mod, but i dont think that works for any of the non-vanilla villagers
any tips?
thats a replacement mod
Meaning you replace the original pngs in the rsv folder, sorry I shouldve made it clearer
thank you!!

Is anyone using the Immersive Characters - Shane Mod by tenthousandcats? I have a question about it
https://www.moddrop.com/stardew-valley/mods/487802-immersive-characters-shane
In the mod if you talk to shane on Winter 24 while married he says.
"Wait, wait wait, don't look!"
(Shane frantically stuffs a giant wad of crumpled wrapping paper into his shirt)
"Uh, sorry about that".
Is there something that is supposed to happen afterwards?
No, its just before the winter star so its likely just a gift list

I have multiple dialogue mods, will they mess with eachother?
I feel like I have 4-7
depends on what dialog they modify/add and how they do it, one mod could overwrite another mod's changes completely or they could have no overlap at all
This is the log I've got. We've been doing some testing since I asked this and it appears to be an issue with our Fashion Sense mod. On a testing farm someone hit Randomize on the hand mirror and it completely crashed the game

!log the log shows whether every mod is working at least (they might be prevented from applying their changes if two or more mods try to replace the same dialogue asset), but not much more, you'd have to read the mods' code/dialogue for that
@errant jungle Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
what's a sign to see if it's adding/modifying in the cod?
might want to report it to the fashion sense author (and include a log with the error)
I will! Working on getting the logs from them. Thank you
nothing simple, you'd have to compare the dialogue keys it uses to native keys to see if they already exist
(⊙‿⊙)
but as long as the all the mods can apply their changes it's probably mostly fine, the last mod that applies it changes will just take priority
which will lead to missing some dialog but there's no simple way to fix that
you mean if one code says something like winter24"random dialogue"
its considered modifying?
since its scripted to play out that dialogue for the day
if that dialogue key doesn't exist already it adds it, if it exist it modifies it
well, replaces really
okay, does anyone know what any of these errors mean? was trying to figure out the first one bc i think it's messing with Deluxe Grabber Redux and Better Chests (the grabbers aren't following the config I set with Better Chests since its update, and the contents disappear whenever I pick them up) and those last couple of errors just appeared after i got rid of Better Junimos since it wasn't working as well as i thought it would 😭 😭 😭

Maybe a weird question, what can cause a save to stutter, but when you start a new save you get no stutter with the same mods installed? I've been doing a lot of testing and can't figure this out.
I even went to the same day and same season in the new save.
you tend to have a lot more stuff on older saves
no
if you have mods that, say, iterate everything every tick, you'll see slowdown
thats just saying it
How come I don’t have a stardew valley mods folder, do I have to make one or should there already be one?
It was the first year though and I had one coop. I didn't add anything at all to the farm when the stutters started, plus I even removed a ton of mods. It's almost like when Smapi was just turning to 3.14 and the performance troubles started.
you'll have a lot more terrain features though, like grass and such
If I remove my mod expansions like DTZ, Raffadax and big mods like that the stutters disappear but only if I remove all the big ones. Which is weird cause it was fine before.
Anyways I figure the save is screwed, which sucks
I don't have any mods that add terrain features? Unless texture changes are what you mean. I've gotten rid of more grass to check if that would help.
Hmmmm
Does profiler say anything
Honestly I've been going through the mods I use and sending out PRs when I find code that causes slowdowns
Content patcher takes 25 plus to do its stuff, but I haven't checked since a week ago with profiler.
I can post a log though with it. But I was told it doesn't show much to help figure the problem
Is the MiniBars PR merged in yet?
Just everything was taking over 20
Is minibars the one that adds health bars to enemies with nice designs
Yeah
I had that in my modlist with 100 mods in it with no content mods and it was lagging my game, not just stutters.
Was told to turn them off unless I'm attacking that monster and it fixed it.
Yeah, atra’s PR fixes that
With profiler should I do any smapi commands to help find anything out?
Honestly I've found reviewing the code of the mods I use to be the fastest way to find slowdown
I've mostly been looking at mods that use once per tick events since those are viewable
Ok so don't know what this is about but spritemaster is now throwing yellow lines after lines at me after I updated it.
https://smapi.io/log/3103f81fb3de4c99b59ba21d76e3988a (This is before I load into the game) I updated to see if it goes away but here
Log Info: SMAPI 3.15.1 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Windows 11, with 180 C# mods and 456 content packs.
https://smapi.io/log/368aa66c5c8b46b3a5d7c860648e0c1e
Here is the log with profiler. I went till 8:30am. I went from about almost 780+ mods down to 636 mods (I also went back to Spritemaster 14 due to that being the one I used before the stutter started to see if it would help.)
Log Info: SMAPI 3.15.1 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Windows 11, with 180 C# mods and 456 content packs.
Stutter stays the same no matter what
Unless I remove everything (and I mean everything) in my Expansion folder.
That is Adventurer's Guild Expanded
Boarding House
Deep Woods
Defense Division
East Scarp and all the NPCs plus the extra ones in the Discord
Fishing Valley
Lunna Astray
Moon Misadventures
Ridgeside
Shadow Cove
Stardew Aquarium
Walk to the Desert R
and Raffadax.
I tried to remove just the big ones that added a ton to the game and it didn't help. Anyways sorry for the big post.
Are these two the same link?
I’m unable to copy the code from the smapi installer, so I’m wondering if this other link is the same
You have to use the one it shows in your top post
Use Ctrl+C to copy and Ctrl+V to paste it
That’s my problem
Hello, sorry for the inconvenience, but could someone tell me to help me with smapi 3.7.6.10 Android. I have an image with the problem (it is in Spanish), this problem is that I cannot finish installing the smapi stardew valley.
I closed it and reopened it but still the same problem
SAAT - Audio API and Toolkit mod not working need help how can i fixt this
Go to the sve discord server and ask for the mobile install guide
The mobile install process is quite different
Is there any other way to highlight this green code?
Okay thanks
It's just the path to the game directory and %command% at the end
You can navigate there via file Explorer and just copy from there
Okay thanks

@obsidian imp Stardew Valley Expanded (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3753) is a mod which adds a lot of new content and areas to the game. It has many dependencies, so be sure to follow the install guide which is on the github wiki along with FAQs and troubleshooting steps for common issues: https://github.com/FlashShifter/StardewValleyExpanded/wiki
So now that I have smapi installed, do I just download the other mods and extract their zip file and drag them into the stardew valley mods folder?
hello guys i have been trying to play the stardew valley expanded mod since yesterday i have downloaded all the requirements i have the latest version of smapi but when i tried playing the mod it was fine till day 3 when i slept in day 2 my game crashed i fixed this problem by changing an option in config it was sth about mists but when i try to load back to my save file the game crashes does any one has any fix for it?
!gettingstarted
@simple sapphire If you would like a guide to setting up mods for Stardew Valley, check out the getting started guide! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide
But yea just unzip them to the mods folder
Okay thanks
You can even organize them into other folders in the mods folder
Like npc mods, crop mods and such
@gaunt gust we're very disappointed you'd trip our censor with an SVE invite 
Oh neat
here is my mod folder
I thought you whitelisted them I'm so sorry
on that note, hi @rare quest 🌻 just wondering if svexpanded is the current vanity URL for the SVE discord server? if so, we'll need to update our censorlist for discord links
I pulled that from the sve nexus page
Hello, sorry for the inconvenience, but could someone tell me to help me with smapi 3.7.6.10 Android. I have an image with the problem (it is in Spanish), this problem is that I cannot finish installing the smapi stardew valley.I would appreciate help
Wrong
Unable to sign installation package, contact developer for help
okay
If you need more info let me know.
how to fix event error? please help me i cant play my save
How would I know that the stardew valley expanded mod is working, isn’t there supposed to be a new icon for the farm layout? I chose the Immersive Farm 2 Remastered farming layout
But everything on the title screen looks normal
i don't think it changes the title screen. the farm selection i thought would be modified though
Still looks the same
Highlight over the standard farm
It still says Standard
If not just quickstart to see if your farm is different
Ok
It also says that it’s only running 3 mods, so maybe that’s the problem?
I have all the requirements for expanded inside of the stardew valley mod folder
It’s still the same sadly
Did you unzip the mods
Yes
Okay
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
I don’t even know why that’s even there lol
I have no idea what that is
As you can tell, this is my first time ever doing any sort of game with mods
Just follow the link and it should help you
After you get the log submitted post it here
Those are not unzipped
I couldn't really see on the picture but yea, it didn't look unzipped
Try out 7zip to unzip
I thought they were, since it’s says Zip file
zip would mean its not unzipped
Log Info: SMAPI 3.15.1 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Windows 10, with 3 C# mods and 0 content packs.
So how do I zip the files? After I do zip them than what?
Yea I would use 7zip to unzip them and after you unzip them you can delete the zipped files
!unzip
@simple sapphire Files with the extension .zip, .rar, or .7z are archive files, which you can extract to get the actual files inside. For a .zip file, just right-click (or long-press on Android) it and choose the option like extract or uncompress. For .rar and .7z, you need to install third-party software first, like 7-zip https://7-zip.org on Windows, Keka https://keka.io on macOS, PeaZip https://peazip.github.io on Linux, or ZArchiver https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver on Android.
Or find a YouTube guide, there is a million of them
Ah there is a thing for it
can you help me out too? i cant load back to my save files this is my mod folder
You mean you cant load your savefile?

Even if it gets installed, it doesn't even open and crashes on Android 12 bro. Just my experience.
It is?
Yes

No. I am playing without mods now
Mine doesn't even open

Hello 🙂 I would like to ask for help. For quite some time my stardew valley doesn't work. In the crimson desert, there are no enemies, the game takes ages to load. I am starting to be a bit desperate. Everything is updated but the problems still persist. Can I ask someone for help, it's saying that there is a problem with the farm type manager, but I just updated it.

@restive glacier It's working now bro. I downloaded the wrong smapi and mods
ok, so the latest version of that portrait and sprite retexture mod you're trying to use is packaged as an xnb replacer which is a way of modding sdv that is not recommended these days because it overwrites core game files. as such, CP cannot work with it (unless you take it upon yourself to convert it into a manner that CP can read)
!xnb
XNB mods often break the game and are not recommended. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods for more info (and a list of Content Patcher alternatives), and https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files to fix problems caused by XNB mods. For mod creators, see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).
as it currently is, you can but you shouldn't. however, if you're technically savvy enough, you can try a hand at converting it yourself through the last link in the message above mine by the bot
hey again, you might wanna refer to this too as it goes into more detail when making a content patcher mod https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/stable/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide.md

ow thanks, I will try to remove that mod first then see if it works
It has a config setting you can toggle off, I'm pretty sure
it does have a config option to toggle "debris" off so if that's the culprit, you can try that
okay I will look into it
I'd advise against using vortex. It has a really bad habit of breaking things when it comes to sdv. Try manually reinstalling your mods and seeing if that fixes the issue
fetk breaks mail in some way. i'd try removing pytk to see if it fixes the farm type manager issue (could also help with load times).
It worked thank you guys 
Will try thank you)
what can cause a game to just, completely shut down? I went to sleep, and it flickered, then both smapi and game were gone. No crash report, nothing in log either

Judging by the error messages, it looks like there's an issue with Market Day and/or Custom fixed dialogue. I know CFD had an update very recently; did the problems start after you updated it?
Guys, how to make this menu smaller in size?
Oh nah I filtered it to see, Market Day errors are normal 😂 Author is on holiday so no fixes soon for that
maybe try going back to the previous version of CFD if the problems started after you updated?
Anyone know a fix for this mess?

Can you not get saves back from a modded game?
I was trying all night last night and I couldn’t unzip my saved game
.....unzip?
save-backups prob
Did you add the last upgrade to the house?
Right so I did that and I’ll I saw was the cods for it, so how to I get the saves to open on the game?
!saves
@stable hornet Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.
Should it just open into stardew?

no, upload your log instead

you said loading so you're probably not even getting to the point where it'd give error logs

@earnest totem Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
Are you playing on steam? Or something else
Steam
I have copied over the text to the Run box but windows cannot find it apparently
Yeah SMAPI wouldn’t be able to find it because it hasn’t had a chance to run the game
Okay
how can i show the issuse if thats the case?:)
does anyone know how to use this mod?: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/391
when launched with SMAPI and steam, it doesn't say there's a significant issue, but the portraits don't appear when i enter the game. i have portraiture and pyTK
I think you should be able to post a screenshot but I’m not 100% sure
i dont want to mess up so id prefer confirmation before i send over
Right.
it's an XNB mod
don't use those
if ur happy ill send over now?
i'll uninstall it but what exactly is that if you don't mind answering?

try reinstalling smapi
Hi! Sorry if I'm interrupting
I've been trying to use talkohlooey's portraits mod but I can't get it to work
I also have HD Portraits installed
the game can't apply two different portraits to the same character. Try removing HD portraits/any other portrait mods you might have and seeing if that works
I removed other portrait mods I had but the page for talkohlooey's mod reccomended downloading HD potraits
huh
hang on lemme grab the mod id rq
can you run patch summary talkohlooeys.HiResPortraits in the smapi console and then upload your log ?
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
im assuming you're using the mail file
also, looking at it, hd portraits is a dependency of talkohlooey's, so don't remove that, mb
*main
not mail
Ah shoot I gotta go do something but I'll be back to do that!

I have downloaded the mods from the SDVE mod list

When asking for help with modding issues, please:
- Ask in #archived-modded-support
- Try to explain what the issue or problem is. Please be specific!
- If it's SMAPI installation related, please state whether you're using Windows/Mac/Linux and Steam/GOG/Gamepass.
- Provide a log if you have one (see https://smapi.io/log for instructions). Please provide a log even if there's no errors or warnings! If you are playing multiplayer, we will need a log from every player.
Well, firstly don't just have StardewModdingAPI.exe on your desktop. You have to actually install it like the instructions say.

- Type

- Post the log link here?
can you try doing that? the one error message at least seems to be harmony related
If you feel comfortable doing so you can send me a .zip of your mods folder and I can see if I can poke around for a solution, too. But that's not required or anything, just an option

Does anyone else have their game lag whenever the clock ticks to a full hour?
Hey guys, im having troubles with the smapi
Last night the smapi was working only with a few mods , others mod that wasnt working said that i need others mods to work ( but i installed everthing step by step)
But today my smapi just dissapeared from my PC
Idk whats going on
Alright, that isn't showing as much as I hoped it would. Some smarter person than me could probably take a look at it for ya
So
The ftm error is fixed in harmony 2.2.2
Which will be released with smapi 3.16.0....sooner or later
The other one is a failure to transpile
Which is odd since I don't see any other transpilers on that function
that's so weird. what OS are you on?
"It'll be fixed in next that might take weeks" is probably not what you wanted to hear though
Sorry but what is OS?
operating system. mac, windows, linux, android
Oh , windows
alrighty. if you hit the windows key and r, then type %appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs in the box, does anything come up? i'm not asking to see the log (yet), just want to know if there's a log present
also, did you get sdv via steam or some other way?
It's a mac specific thing
And it actually isn't ftm
Some other mod enabled harmony's debug features
Who, no clue
But the harmony debug functions don't work on some macs
We believe it has to do with mac security settings
Probably the same on Linux
It's failing to grab the deskrop folder
Yeah
This is what shows me
The note says that contains files but none of them have manifest.json or content patcher
But i have these 2
And my game now dissapears :( i try to search but there's no more application on mt pc
because it's basically not maintained, and no one wants to look into it and update it for the latest version of smapi
so smapi/content patcher have to disable some optimizations for it
where did you get your stardew valley game from? steam?
Nope , i installed on igg games
some furniture mods have moved to dga
did you use vortex?
try installing mods manually
oh. that uh. might be related. to be clear, your stardew valley.exe is gone? or just stardewmoddingapi.exe?
Both gone
Really? My friends use that site and recommend for me
dont think we should be naming pirating sites in here 🤔
Oh crap
but in my experience its usually fine (virus-free)
You think that all this dissapeard and mods dont work is bc its a piracy game ?
I just did this bc i saw a lot of videos using this method and this site
But if it brings malware im f*****
i'm not saying this is a malware thing, i'm more thinking along the lines of anti-piracy measure
the truth is i have no idea; i'm kind of just grasping at straws here
something's definitely up. your games files aren't supposed to dissapear spontaneously
U think if i desinstalled everything bad is gone ? Like the game and everything ?
Or i need to scan?
Where i can check the quarentine space ? Im sorry guys but im really noob at the pc hahah
Settings > Privacy and Security > Virus & Threat protection
start there
you're on windows yeah?
Yeah , windows
in this, click protection history, then you can see things like blocked, quarantined, and removed stuff
Ok , i didnt know but my av expired and i just saw now , i had the mcafee
Oh god :(
windows has windows defender, so its not like you're totally unguarded. I don't use anything but windows defender myself
see if stardew valley comes up in the protection history?
I cant see where exactly is the proyrction history here but im seeing that nothing is wrong with malware and this kind of stuff
Has anyone with BFAV had the issue where all your coop animals turn to white chickens? Haven't tried getting barn animals yet but can't seem to figure out what's causing this
Did you play the game before it disappeared?
Yes , yesterday
alright, and everything worked alright?
are you on mac?
And now my smapi says that when i try to make it work again
Says that maybe and av makes it not work
But i dont have any
windows has an av built it, windows defender
Hmmm okay , but how can i make this work? Its strange
If it keeps like this i cannot play
it's very strange. are you on windows 10 or 11? or a different version
Its a 10
alrighty
Yeah , i think even if i buy the game on steam , the smappi will not work
you might need to reinstall smapi
Like a two days ago the same thing happend and i reinstalled the smapi , it worked but now it happend the same error again
Yesterday when i reinstalled it was working perfectly besides the other mods problems
But i have to fix this av problem ; but idk how if its the own Windows av
if you go into settings, then go to windows security, is there a virus and threat protection option?
i'm on windows 11 and idk how different it is from 10
what is the name of that mod that lets you skip ahead multiple days?
No , its basically says that i dont have an AV active and my pc is vunerable
okay, that's...very weird. bc there's supposed to be a built in antivirus for windows
can you get to the security and privacy part in your computer settings?
Its shows me that same phrase and it goes to a video if i click in show me more information about it
A windows video
hm. can you grab a screenshot for me?
or maybe you set the windows defender to passive or uninstalled it at some point?
Its in portuguese haha im brazilian , but i can
I dont think i uninstalled bc im afraid to do those things and f the pc
Hahaha
hmmmm. alright, so you were using mcafee but it's expired?
according to this microsoft page, windows defender gets automatically disabled when you start using a non-microsoft antivirus program as your primary av, presumably to prevent conflicts
has there been a smapi update recently? a mod i downloaded isnt working and says its because i havent updated smapi, i go and redownload it on nexus to see if it works then. it doesnt, and im like ok whatever i can live without this mod but now none of the other mods r working?
!log
@mellow scaffold Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
Ohhh okay , i didnt know that , so idk where this AV that smapi says come from
Yes its mcafee
i'd honestly suggest buying stardew from steam and reinstalling smapi. i'm really not sure how else to fix the disappearing file issue or what caused it. I'm guessing it could be anti-piracy measures? but i'm not sure
reinstalling the game still won't fix it, dlls are still broken
I hope that works , bc i will be f if the files missing again , its strange that my pc recognizes the file on smapi a virus
It doenst make any sense
And i searched on internet and i didnt see anybody with the same problem as me
when i put the first text into the windows thing it says windows cannot find it?
%appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs?
yes
hm. did you get sdv through steam?
yes
alrighty. i know this seems redundant, but can you try reinstalling smapi again? bc it looks like it didn't get reinstalled correctly. its not like mods where you're meant to delete the old file before reinstalling. when you run the installer on the new version it'll automatically delete the old one
ok! ill try that, althought he first time i downloaded it months ago it was on the official smapi website? this time i downloaded it from nexus which might contribute to the problem
Hey, I'm back! I can't type in the smapi console though, anytime I hit a button it just starts up the game
do i still put the little code thing into steam after it asks the questions?
if you did it the first time you won't need to do it again, but it couldn't hurt to check that the launch settings are still there
when you launch the game ther'es the smapi console window and the game window, yeah?
Oh let me check, I closed the game as soon as it launched so I didn't see
alright, that might be my problem. the second time i downloaded it earlier i put the new code in.
Log Info: SMAPI 3.15.0 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Windows 10, with 13 C# mods and 4 content packs.
there we go!
no, windows, but I am in multiplayer if that makes a difference
looks like you need to update content patcher
ah alright, will do!
are you sure your bfav packs match?
I asked about mac because I apparently it's an isuse on mac
yeah same BFAV-related mods
that's interesting that it's a mac issue
and thank you so much for the help, this has been driving me insane for days lol
do I do mod manager or manual is there a difference or does it matter at all 4 which one I choose(pc player
)
Basically, if bfav can't figure out what to do with an animal, it reverts to white chicken for the the coop
And white cow for the barn
Hmmm
Manual
ok thank u 
Mod manager means using the nexus launcher Vortex to download it. Manual means you have to copy-paste it into the mod folder and all the rest of the process of Smapi stuff.
for smapi itself, vortex install seems to work like half the time
ok so after I download smapi what does it do to help me download the mod I want and do I have 2 like do stuff or put the mod file into that folder or something else
Hello~
I had a question regarding modding on other platforms than PC.
!gettingstarted please follow this guide
@frozen sluice If you would like a guide to setting up mods for Stardew Valley, check out the getting started guide! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide
https://github.com/Pathoschild/SMAPI/issues/632 probably has the answer in a lot of techincal detail
Ah well.
So not officially supported = i won’t be able to ask questions here either right?
Thank you! Come to think of it I've been getting stuff from the same mod, I didn't even realize so maybe it's just an issue with that mod lol
going to get stuff from other mods to test and see what happens
you can ask! But likely no one knows the answer
Ah alright.
So I do have a jailbroken switch.
(No, i’m not a pirate).
And i’ve came across this thread:
I wondered if there was a solution found to it
so i've been playing mp with a friend and i can play the game and whatnot until we hit the first cutscene, which causes the game to have a black screen and a bunch of error logs at SMAPI. here's my logs https://smapi.io/log/ad8534c484b14096b27bc6aee8951c31
Log Info: SMAPI 3.15.1 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Windows 10, with 98 C# mods and 108 content packs.
another mod manager that specially build for sdv is stardrop
ehhh, that's oversimplifying by a lot
a lot of what CP does well is changing what it loads by teh day or season
(or a bunch of other factors)
Perhaps pay attention to the screenshot. They were using nexus.
if you just want to export, sure! patch export does that, and then you have to pack it as an xnb file...somehow.
stardrop works with nexus
Ah okay.
Neat
So basically doing exactly what the OP said, exporting the patch and repacking the file with xnbcli?
you can use stardrop and connect it to nexusmod webpage using nexus API key
I’ll definitely give it a test go on linux version first i guess
If that works this would help a lot of people \o/
Thank you so much! Just what I needed!
does anyone know why my letters keep repeating and wont go away
screenshot?
sounds like a problem with your computer though
not really a mods things exactly
well its like, every time i open the mail it just repeats the same letter, give me a second
trying to see if a new game works
oooh, I thought you meant when you type letters xD
oh no lol
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
it keeps telling me about the fishing magazines and it will not go away
hm... weird
ill send my log in a second
you have the mods unzipped in a folder right?
then yes, they'll stay there, i had to do that once, as long as you dont delete them or delete the mods folder youre fine
like i had to delete smapi before
well that im not sure
since you'll be deleting the stardew files and that includes the mod folder
if you want to do that
put all the mods in a different folder
and when you're ready to use them again put them back
has better farm animal variety stopped working for anyone else?
im gonna see if updating my mods help it
it's generally glitchy. Do you have the unofficial update at least though?
i do have the unofficial update. i keep getting an error when i try to buy animals from marnie and pathos was kind enough to look at it and said it was an issue with better farm animal variety. i guess i'm just stumped because 1) i have bought animals on the save file i'm using already and 2) 4 of them are BFAV animals (and they don't seem to be broken as they're giving me animal products still).
so i just wanted to know if anyone else was also having issues with it
a lot of people, generally
gotcha. sucks it broke in the middle of a playthrough 😦

ive updated those mods 50 times and it keeps saying its not updated
most likely the author of the mod forgot to change the version number in the manifest.json
should be harmless
does anyone know if I can use SVE and the ridgside mod (I forget the name) at the same time?
yes you can, just be prepared for a long ass introductions quest and it might take a while to load
why does my mail keep repeating
That's caused by fetk
Remove that in favor of.mail services mod
will it mess up anything else
This might be a stupid question but how do you know if two mods would be altering the same file and how would you change it to the one you prefer? For example if I have two furniture mods that replace the same thing
!loadorder
When two mods both edit dialogue or images, whichever mod loads last "wins" and is the one you see in the game. In order to change the load order of mods, you can add false dependencies, see here for details: https://stardewmodding.miraheze.org/wiki/Tutorial:_How_to_Add_a_False_Dependency_for_Load_Orders
Or make one an AT mod
Nah
Thanks!
anyone can help with this error
!troubleshoot
hey! Can I get you to run through this troubleshooting guide https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_doesn.27t_launch? If none of the options there work, can you post the error message you get if you open SMAPI using the command line?
Theres something wrong with my savefile, I swear It was fine the last time I got on https://smapi.io/log/2bbc882dff5542a4bc804fd1110d41f3

its the error massage i get when try to open smapi
what is the mod that mkes you get heat exhaustion
i wanna take it off thats why im asking
Hello friends! I've been having an issue with SMAPI refusing to open, and Pathoschild#0001 from Nexus suggested I come here to ask about it.
Here's my parsed error log: (seems to not have any errors?)
https://smapi.io/log/6c0b0f5fbce24f0892fcbc72d2ea5b31
I can get the game to run if I open a PowerShell window from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley" and then type the command ".\StardewModdingAPI.exe" but not if I click the SMAPI icon, or Right Click > Open, or Right Click > Run as Administrator, or run from a Command Prompt, or click the .exe directly in its folder. It force closes immediately if I don't open it through PowerShell.
Theoretically I could just open the game the hard way, but I'd really like to figure out what's causing the problem in the first place.
**Edited to add that the vanilla Stardew opens fine, just not SMAPI.
Log Info: SMAPI 3.15.1 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Windows 10, with 58 C# mods and 70 content packs.
Just a quick question: If I put mods into a folder, say for mods in a multiplayer game that I don't use on my solo game, will those still work?
thank you
Also, no rush, but since you asked me to tag you on Nexus: @tired brook Just so I don't forget!
it wont let me delete the mod
!modgroups
See this link for how to load different mod groups: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Can_I_have_different_mod_groups.3F
it keeps popping back up
Ok new day, new crash! We were able to crash the game reproductively by using the Randomize button on the FS Hand Mirror. However now that we have saved the game, the next day we can't crash it any more. AHHH

Hi! If you run StardewModdingAPI.exe through command prompt, does it print any info when it exits?
yes, one sec I'll find it
lemme check!
No, it does nothing at all.
Can you post a screenshot of the game folder (with the path at the top visible), and the command prompt after running the command?
Yes! One sec
I'm following the link it gave me now, I accidentally ran it wrong the first time heh
You can ignore that link, the suggested fix is incorrect.
It looks like you're running SMAPI from the Vortex staging folder. It should work if you go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley and double-click StardewModdingAPI.exe there instead.
AAAAA omg that seems to have worked, thank you! I didn't even realize I had SMAPI in multiple folders, much less that I was using the wrong one lol. I appreciate the help!
Can anyone help me for using mod? The menu didn't show when press P.

it took like half an hour to install expanded and now it says its wrong
Delete all the SVE folders in your Mods folder and extract a fresh copy
Keep them together in one folder
Makes it easier to check none of the components get duplicated
https://smapi.io/log/d564c6a389ef4fd0a80c2b4b637549ce whys my baby dinosaur crashing my game? first one I hatched, i walk into the coop and it lets me name them but i cant press enter and the game just freezes

All folders that have "Stardew Valley Expanded" in their name.
also been a bit confused about the "Can't parse as an animal, pet, or horse. Expected one of type" line
try verify files
Fresh copy extracted from the .zip file you downloaded
after verfying should i try running it again?
yeah but before that, if you want this to load just install PyTk otherwise they are just cluttering your smapi log
ah yeah i had pytk before but saw that it could be slowing the game down so i took it out, i should clean those up;;;;
I try to use CJB mod but menu didn't appear. Would anyone mind help me checking?

you dont have the mod
Did you: 1. Extract the folder from the .zip 2. Put the extracted folder in your Mods folder?
time for the long wait again lol
Is it taking a long time to extract?
oof alright after trying to load up the game it seemed to have crashed https://smapi.io/log/088bbde619c549d59fd1a02730b06990 i dont think it gave me any errors in smapi though, just closed the game, huh
Log Info: SMAPI 3.15.0 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Windows 10, with 54 C# mods and 147 content packs.
You don't need to re-download it.
yeah, just to paste the cut folder in the mod folder
it only has done this for the expanded mod
so its not exactly freezing anymore, or repeating the error in smapi, but its not fixed either- I assume it has to do with "---> FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Content\Animals\BabyDinosaur.xnb'." this line- and that theres no babydinosaur.xnb file? tbh i didnt know dinosaurs had a baby form? or was it added by a mod? if so i do have babydinosaur skins added by adopt and skin? but i guess it still needs the base games xnb file?
I already download & unzip the mod in Mods folder so what should I do next?
Log Info: SMAPI 3.15.0 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Windows 10, with 54 C# mods and 147 content packs.
it says its 5 percent complete now lol
Can you screenshot the contents of your Mods folder?
Mods go here: /Users/minimosca/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOS/Mods
oh ok i figured out my issue, its with the mod The cowboy life expanded, a few other people have had the same problem. I need to go edit the files to adjust it to not look for a babydinosaur sprite. at least thats what im gathering from the nexus page
SMAPI tells you where the installation folder is, and where it expects mods to be
it's work now!! thank you so much 
Hello,
Platform: Windows
Version: 1.5 (SMAPI 1.5.6)
anyone know why SMAPI makes the games volume extremely loud? I had to turn it down in the game options and the mixer volume on my taskbar. I tried this with just SMAPI and other mods. If I remove the mods and boot it as I did before SMAPI it has normal volume levels.
Anyone know the cause of the ghost bed. I just did the upgrade that adds the second floor and this appearance. If I enter it it asks if I want to sleep but I can't pick it up.
I think... It might be the basement mod.
It’s an old house mod from when the bed wasn’t movable
Yeah I removed it. Restarting g the game now.hoping that was the only mod that was causing it
im trying to play stardew valley expanded but i keep getting this error in the console
"[Content Patcher] Patch error: Stardew Valley Expanded > Load Maps/Mountain has a FromFile which matches non-existent file 'Assets\Maps\Locations\Mountain.tbin'.
[Content Patcher] Patch error: Stardew Valley Expanded > Load Maps/LeahHouse has a FromFile which matches non-existent file 'Assets\maps\locations\LeahHouse.tbin'."
but i never deleted one of them
so i had to swap my SVE mods to stardrop, and when loading into my old save, it's not properly loading the grandpa's farm map. Like I have my old farm stuff just overlapping with a vanilla SDV map. The SMAPI log doesn't give me any errors.
I got added and got rid of a mod and now ridgeside has a few weird textures which cut off at weird points are dont look aligned properly
If anyone knows a fix
that would be rgeat
trying to make a new game on grandpa's farm will just freeze and put me on the vanilla farm.
looks fine to me
oh so i dont have to do anything?
it looks like you've either tried to install a xnb mod into your Mods folder, or somehow transfered your entire Stardew COntent folder into your Mods folder.
whats a xnb mod
any idea on what I did wrong with my installation of SVE and associated mods on Stardrop? I just went to nexus mods and installed using Stardrop.
It's not loading SVE grandpa's farm or any of the SVE content.
Whenever I try to load the game through steam it says missing executable. Is there a way to fix that? Here's my mods folder if that helps:
- smapi-internal because it contains files, but none of them are manifest.json.
this isnt supposed to be in the mods file right
also why does it say that my grandpa's farm one is empty
okay I think you've installed smapi wrong
