the !gettingstarted

was about to search for that link on google

[junior meteor]

hi there, I have a question. Is it possible for anything to tell me why a particular mod isn't showing up? (like the smapi log, or anything really) Nothing is broken per say, it's simply... not there. And I don't know if it needs to be moved in the load order? Or if I'm just stupid?? I was struggling with it yesterday, and I'd love not having to 50/50 it 😅

[neat plaza]

didn't know holy had a macro for that

[cosmic vale]

I been here like 2 day

s

say hi

[halcyon igloo]

i don't have a macro lol i in fact type it every time

[neat plaza]

I wonder how many people do have macros for commands
i have one for !mobilebug

[halcyon igloo]

are you sure that it's in fact actually loading?

my wpm is like 130 i don't need macros for short phrases on my laptop lol

[summer swan]

The SMAPI log usually can tell you why a mod wasn't loaded.

[sonic sail]

i got a question, im trying to use stardew vallley expanded, and i need space core, when i launch the game on smapi it tells me that the saves wont work anymore or smth, so, is space core safe? sorry for bothering tho 😅

[neat plaza]

yes and it doesn't say that

[junior meteor]

thank you I'll try that

[sonic sail]

ohh, alright, thank youu

[vague leaf]

I'm using a custom forest farm map (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2629) and some of the decorative bushes near the house can be chopped down but others near the pond can't/nothing happens when I use the axe on them, is there any way to remove those bushes short of unpacking the map files and editing it?

[summer swan]

Not without map editing.

Also where's our good friend Error handler :(

[junior meteor]

no idea maybe you can tell me? https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8164?tab=description

Reinstall smapi, might be error that can't be loaded in log as no error handler

[cosmic vale]

I'm smol brain sorry

[keen vapor]

I checked that but I am so lost\

I don't use mods for anything and I have no clue what to do

[long brook]

Try to at least install smapi first

[keen vapor]

smapi is installed

[long brook]

If you launch the game, a black window/terminal show up then the game window show?

[keen vapor]

no steam opens

[neat plaza]

when you open the game?

[keen vapor]

ok so steam opens and then the game

[long brook]

!launchoptions then

[native dragon]

If you're using Steam or GOG on Windows, you will need to set your launch options in order for Steam/GOG to automatically launch with SMAPI. The SMAPI installer will tell you what to set as the launch options when it completes (green text). You can find instructions (with screenshots) on how to do that here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Configure_your_game_client

hi!! i was meaning to ask if anyone here is versed in uploading furniture mods and such

[lament prairie]

What do you mean uploading?

Like you made a mod?

#making-mods-general for questions about making a mod

[azure wave]

no no

[neat plaza]

then why are you uploading mods

[azure wave]

i'm having trouble with trying to install multiple furniture mods*

sorry my wording was a bit off.

[hoary bane]

Are they only Pngs/Xnb?

[azure wave]

no most of them are cf! but i'm new to modding and such, and i haven't found a tutorial online that really shows how to install it properly into the game

[keen vapor]

thanks it worked...you been super helpful

[hoary bane]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

@azure wave 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

[hoary bane]

CF is real broken now though, I don't think you should really use it.

[azure wave]

I'm still looking through the guide and it's not all too helpful.

[hoary bane]

In what way?

[azure wave]

I'm just trying to install furniture mods to make decorating my farm easier and frankly much prettier, but It always seems to not work as intended. I'm not sure what to do past installing the CF mods and putting them into the custom furniture folder.

I was under the impression that it should just add the furniture as a new item into the game.

however, it only retextures base game items.

[hoary bane]

Installing the CF mods and putting it inside the Custom Furniture folder..?

The only place you should be putting those is directly into the Mods folder, not inside another lest it's a subfolder you made yourself.

[azure wave]

Right, so there's a mod called custom furniture.

and it has a folder called furniture that says "non cp packs go here"

[hoary bane]

If it retextures the vanilla items, it's not CF.

What furniture mod is that?

[azure wave]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1254

no yeah that's the one sorry.

[hoary bane]

No I mean which furniture mod you're trying to get. That's the framework.

[azure wave]

oh yeah ok! hold on sorry.

My friends and I actually used a lot. I'm not sure if there's a minimum of how many we can add.

[summer swan]

Just give us the link for one that's not working. We might be able to figure out from there.

And you might also share your log to check if SMAPI refuses to load mods for reasons.

!log

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[azure wave]

well you see none of them seemed to work (apart from retexturing everything) so I've been looking for help.

[long brook]

Wait you play modded coop with custom furniture installed?

[azure wave]

yes but i tried out the mods first in single player.

and i think we just didn't install it properly or something.

[hoary bane]

Can we have the link of that furniture mod, please?

It'll be quite hard to troubleshoot just based from what you're saying.

A log would be fairly useful as well, link is a few messages up.

[azure wave]

i know!! sorry!! there's just a lot of mods

give me a moment

these are the mods we tried to use.

[lament prairie]

For CF content packs you just install them as a normal mod

However, CF in multiplayer seems to cause a lot of crashes

Some of these are not CF mods

Like the first one

Or the second one

[hoary bane]

No wonder it was taking long for the links, that's a lot!

[lament prairie]

I haven't clicked through them all

[hoary bane]

I think there should be a DGA conversion for a few of these?

[azure wave]

sorry we're all just really into designing stuff.

what's dga?

[lament prairie]

But for the first one: read the mod description, there's no CF version, it replaces the furnitures visually with with an xnb (bad bad bad) or CP (alright)

!dga

[native dragon]

Dynamic Game Assets (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9365) is a mod which lets content packs and other mods add custom content like crops, trees, weapons, etc. See the mod description for details.

If you're making custom content, ask mod authors in #making-mods-general about whether using Json Assets (!ja) would be more suitable instead.

[lament prairie]

The second one is a CP mod that replaces the walls and floors

The third one has two options, one that is CP and replaces the furntiure (so, incompatible with the first) and one that is CF and adds new furniture

You're going to have to go through the mod descriptions and read them

Not all furniture mods use CF

[azure wave]

Oh yes thank you I'll add them as cp's i know those ones aren't much of an issue at least. But trying to run these on single player i've noticed some of them just retexture.

here is the smapi log as well! https://smapi.io/log/caf40c197ad1498096d6674def5865c5

[native dragon]

Log Info: SMAPI 3.18.2 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Microsoft Windows 10 Home, with 15 C# mods and 27 content packs.
Suggested fixes: Pytk isn't compatible with newer SMAPI performance optimizations, consider removing it, One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[summer swan]

Because they are retextures like Myc's Seasonal Fireplace.

[lament prairie]

Yes, if you add them as CP they will just retexture

CP = retexture the existing stuff (mostly, certain newer walls and floors add new walls and floors)
CF = add new furniture but buggy
DGA = add new furniture
Custom Walls and Floors = broken framework
AT = retexture existing stuff but you can pick in-game which retexture to use for each specific furniture item

[summer swan]

You want to switch to AT and DGA I think if you want to go for a decoration spree.

[azure wave]

i appreciate everyone's help so much 😭 i'm so sorry i'm very new to modding the only thing i've modded so far are hairs and clothing.

[summer swan]

That's what this channel is for.

[azure wave]

I don't want to retexture existing items so i really would like if it could just add new furniture?

so DGA files are what to look out for?

[lament prairie]

Yes, however, DGA is newer so a lot of things aren't converted for it

Keep in mind DGA does some other things besides furniture

So it's not quite "this mod uses DGA = this is a furniture mod i should use"

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9733

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/13272

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/13990

Here's a few DGA furnitures mods

You can go to Nexus, under the DGA mod page, and click the "Requirements" drop down, and go to "Mods Requiring this file"

And then click through to see if they are furniture mods

(Or guess from the name)

If there's a CF mod you love and can't live without, there is a script to convert CF to DGA mods https://github.com/elizabethcd/FurnitureConverter

However, you do need to install python and learn some computer basics to use the script

[azure wave]

okay thank you so much!! this has been such a help

I'm going to try and test things out and see if it works :DD

[grim patio]

i there an area where i can find custom farms? i cant find them just scrolling through nexus

[halcyon igloo]

category→ maps i think?

[dire fractal]

Hiya, farmers! I have several mods, and it seems that I'm no longer seeing fade in transitions when entering / exiting buildings the same way that I do when I move between map zones. Whenever I enter or exit a building, the transition fades out correctly, then hard-cuts into the next scene instead of fading in. I cannot seem to figure out what's causing this to happen. Any ideas on what it might be? I already tried removing and testing without mods that I installed recently, and none of them seem to be the cause.

[devout pumice]

@dusty spruce: look at this save file for a reason why the island obelisk does not appear in the list of buildables, if no one else does until then (34h ago)

[dire fractal]

Just giving an update that I did a pretty thorough review of my mods (taking them out and putting them back in one by one) and it turns out that this is being caused by something with Gwen's Medieval Craftables. I'll be going to their page on Nexus for help!

[lament prairie]

That shouldn't be caused by a CP mod

In particular, Gwen most likely won't be able to provide a lot of help given that I don't think the craftables includes any patching to that

[robust bison]

lag spike maybe?

[dire fractal]

It only seems to be caused when I put the Craftables mod back into my mods folder - even though it is a CP mod. I did find a comment on their Craftables mod page with the following:

User:
I also have expanded installed, upon checking i have the alternative craftables on it. I turn it off and also seasonal edit. Assuming i don't need the seasonal edit of stardew valley expanded since I'm also using medieval expanded which is also one of your mods. The loading time is back to normal now, with seasonal edit and alternative craftables on expanded turned off.

Gwen:
Yup, SVE seasonal edits also use the location tokens so good job figuring it out.

I've checked to make sure that both OutdoorsSnowEnabled is false on Craftables, and that AlternativeCraftables, SeasonalEdits, BalancedCrafting, and ReplaceDefaultFences are all false on Stardew Expanded. The issue still seems to occur.

[lament prairie]

Hmm, if it is a lag issue then it could affect transitions

!profiler have you tried this?

[native dragon]

Profiler https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/12135 is a mod that can help you narrow down what's causing lag

[lament prairie]

I’m not sure it can pinpoint content packs though

[lost shuttle]

Why

[dire fractal]

It doesn't necessarily seem to be a lag issue - I don't have any issues with lag while playing, and this issue only seems to occur when I add in that one content pack mod. But I'll try the profiler to see if I can pinpoint it.

[robust bison]

try downloading from nexus

[lost shuttle]

I think I've don't this a few times where I think "error handler" is a broken file so I remove it then I can't play and have to re-download smapi. Ugh

[robust bison]

you need error handler

[lost shuttle]

Yeah I got that

[proven pewter]

oh btw, has anyone else been getting this weird bug with SMAPI where whenever you open the esc menu and the game is maximized, it just sort of bumps the game window right and down a bit?

[dusky canyon]

every time.

[gaunt gust]

does vanilla do that too?

there's some reports of odd af window issues with monogame on their forums/github (like, for some reason, missing one pixel while filling the whole screen)

[proven pewter]

I don't think vanilla does it? It's been a while since I played

aaah maybe it's a monogame thing then

if I can replicate it in vanilla I might report it on the trello

[dusty spruce]

@thorny niche you there?

@thorny niche tl;dr is: you NEVER took a boat to Ginger Island. the buildings menu won't show the Island Obelisk until you take it at least once. i assume you just cheated and warped via CJB to get there up until now

Hi- can i have a little help ❤️ I added the shipping bin bear mod- i can see it on the Generic Mod (the one where you can customise etc forgotten the name-sorry) But it doesnt change anything- earlier my smapi was full of red alerts on it but now that i've gone to take a ss to post here, it's not showing anything for the bear mod except that the owner of it hasnt set updates for it.

Beowulf: which farm type had you been picking?

Was it not showing up in the farm selection menu?

Beach farm! since the mod is called adorble beach

Content Patcher loaded asset 'Maps/Custom_FarmGrove' (for the 'Farm_AdorbsBeach' content pack). this is what I see it doing

I assume it's this mod that you're looking at

Is it possible it's something in the config for this mod?

i've only found this- that i have disabled- but when i load into the game, the bear bin won't come through so not sure what else i have (nothing is in the earthy recolour apart from the dirt/grass etc.)

have you tried just putting a z in front of bear shipping bin and having it load last lol

When two mods both edit dialogue or images, whichever mod loads last "wins" and is the one you see in the game.

Still need help with the beach thing ^^''

[sacred sable]

[lost shuttle]

I re-download smapi. Did all the things. It even had error handler in my mod folder.

[halcyon igloo]

what’s the log

something about graphics

[lost shuttle]

I've been playing this game on this very computer for ever

[halcyon igloo]

!log that's really hard to read lol

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[lost shuttle]

The log page says I don't have error handler when I just re downloaded smaip and do have it

My computer won't open discord

[halcyon igloo]

where does it say you don't have error handler

are you getting a successful install message when you install smapi?

[lost shuttle]

Here

Yes and I put the text in the properties of steam

Like I've always done

[halcyon igloo]

no but in the actual console after you install

like it physically said "successfully installed" or sth

what's inside errorhandler?

[halcyon igloo]

honestly i don't even know if it's getting to the point of loading mods to see errorhandler you might need one of the mod makers to help when they come around :x

[lament vortex]

!troubleshoot there's a section here about the graphics error you have

[native dragon]

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?

[drifting needle]

I'm back with an actual problem! y a y .
I tried to update SMAPI last night, and tried again today, but it still booted up version 3.15. So I re-entered the SMAPI steam key thingie, and now SMAPI won't boot up at all.
I have Windows 11, and the game is up to date. I checked the wiki and all it said to do was install SMAPI and it'll update.
Thank you if anyone can help.

[long brook]

So you download newest version of smapi and launch the installer but smapi stays in older version?

[drifting needle]

Yes.

[long brook]

Try launch the installer again and make sure you input the correct path to game folder

[drifting needle]

Okay, I'll try that. Thank you

[drifting needle]

It didn't work, and I've directly copy and pasted the file path into the launch options of SDV. To clarify, SMAPI still isn't booting up at all :,>

[long brook]

Try launch smapi by going into game folde and find StardewModdingAPI.exe

Wanna make sure smapi can run firat then next step is launch option step on steam

[drifting needle]

SMAPI worked! Still running 3.15.1 though..

[long brook]

Uninstall smapi then. Are you sure you either download the latest version and input correct path?

[drifting needle]

Yes, I'm absolutely sure

[long brook]

Try uninstall smapi then install with latest version installer

[drifting needle]

Okay. By the way, thank you so so much, I seriously appreciate it

[long brook]

Smapi will overwrite older version tho so it's weird that when you run smapi, it is still on older version unless you put incorrect path or use older installer

[wet rune]

Does anyone know of a mod that would illuminate the entire screen during the night, or underground? Turning up screen Brightness isn't feasible as it's at max.

[long brook]

Try ask in #modded-stardew

[wet rune]

Sorry thank you.

[drifting needle]

Yeah, If I did something wrong I seriously don't remember. I didn't touch anything or move anything either

[wet rune]

I always get the two channels mixed up

[peak crystal]

hi all! I'm looking to see if anyone knows of how to get the "family planning" mod working? or if there's a newer version of a mod that allows you to have more than two children?

[long brook]

Try this unofficial update
https://forums.stardewvalley.net/attachments/familyplanning-1-3-3-unofficial-1-pathoschild-zip.1152/

[drifting needle]

@long brook Apologies but I just wanna be clear, would deleting SMAPI and then re-install mess up my game saves?
Also, for whatever reason, the installer itself won't delete the old files, would deleting it all manually be ok?

[long brook]

I forgot uninstall smapi will delete Mods folder as well, not altering your saves

[peak crystal]

@long brook I think I did download that, but it seems not to be working with the current version of Content Patcher. Do you think if I went back to version .17 (or whatever the post there is suggesting) that it would work / that would work with more recent mods?

or is the family planning mod just assumed to be not working any longer?

[long brook]

It'a kinda old mod so you need to find replacement. Try ask in #modded-stardew

[peak crystal]

will do! thanks for the tip 🙂

and thanks for your help

[long brook]

No prob. Hope you find the mod you want

[long brook]

Define old file?

[drifting needle]

The 3.15.1 files from smapi. My bad lol

[long brook]

Wait when you hit unsinstall, there is still StardewModdingAPI.exe inside your game folder?

[drifting needle]

Yeah

[long brook]

Lol that means you install new version into incorrect path

Can you screenshot your game folder and the installer when it asks to put game path?

[drifting needle]

Specify what you mean by game folder for me please?

[long brook]

The folder that steam put your game

I wanna know the path so i wanna make sure you type correct path in smapi installer

[dull jetty]

hi! i installed smapi and some mods today but i've discovered that now my journal entries disappear when i complete part of them like when i got the dark talisman quest and got the dark talisman from the sewers, it didn't tell me to bring it back to the railroad. is my game glitching or is that just how that quest works?

[long brook]

!log i might not have answer for your problem but a log is good way to find something wrong

[native dragon]

@dull jetty Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

Wiat a sec, lemme open my laptop (i was on my phone all this time so my typing is weird)

[drifting needle]

Ok lol. We can make a thread/friend for a bit to dm if its needed to sort through this headache, only if its needed

[long brook]

your game folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamui\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley

while in smapi installer: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley

you should choose enter a custom game path and use game folder path

[drifting needle]

OH MY GOD

[long brook]

after that done, your launch option should be "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamui\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

Hello! I'm trying to fix a sequence break. I used CJB to jump me to fall on day one. As a result I didn't trigger the "To the Beach" quest letter and willy is forever "gone fishing". I've played through a year hoping to trigger it in spring to no avail. I'm trying to save edit to start the quest.

I've made test saves with the quest in my mailbox and tried to insert the <mailForTomorrow /><mailbox><string>spring_2_1</string> into the game info, but the save wont load when I've inserted that info

[onyx wigeon]

i’d like help with smapi

Please use that. "Phone screenshots" are unreadable or at best "very painful to read".

[robust bison]

don't save edit, try debug quest 13 in the console on your save

[oblique verge]

@robust bison ok debug quest 13 did make the quest appear in the journal but going to the beach hasn't triggered the cutscene

[robust bison]

do debug completequest 13

[long brook]

is the cutscenete triggered after you get themail?

[raw gust]

wtf

denk

you already posted it here

[oblique verge]

ok, completequest did remove the quest from my active list but still no cutscene and his door still says "gone fishing"

It's really just a pain with bad eyesight (not just for SDV) while smapi page can increase the text properly.

one sec

[robust bison]

try debug ebi 739330

Oh my god that's great, do you mind if I steal this?

There is no working android SMAPI right now, after the mobile 1.5 release. No Android SMAPI means no mods on Android right now.

Are you on the latest version of the game? Or do you still have 1.4?

Then can you please read what we’re saying

IT NO WORK

[brave lotus]

@dire fractal

[sacred sable]

Still have the issue idk what to do

[ruby zinc]

okay gamers so when i try to install a collection with stardrop it just says it cant get the download link

[halcyon igloo]

i don't think collections work

unless you're using vortex but then you'd have to use vortex lol

i could totally be wrong though

[ruby zinc]

vortex no exist on mac :(

[halcyon igloo]

you don't want to use vortex anyway

[ruby zinc]

so is there in theory a way to open each mod in a collections page with one click so i can do it manually

or do i gotta search each one individually

[brave lotus]

oh- i use vortex..is that bad?

[halcyon igloo]

!modmanagerbugs

[native dragon]

Vortex (Nexus) and ModDrop both are mod managers that can help you keep your mods up to date, but they are difficult to troubleshoot. If you're looking for a mod manager that was written specifically for SDV and has troubleshooting logs built in, you can try Stardrop (!stardrop).

If you're using a non-Stardrop mod manager and ask for help troubleshooting, you can ask the Nexus Discord https://www.nexusmods.com/discord or the Moddrop Discord https://www.moddrop.com/app/about (scroll down). If you're using Stardrop, please remember to provide a Stardrop log.

[halcyon igloo]

uh i think you should just be able to click on them from the page no?

[sacred sable]

.

[ruby zinc]

no it doesn't sadly

[sacred sable]

I’m gonna like reexplain my issue, basically when I first downloaded smapi I accidentally didn’t let it access to my files so it didn’t let me do anything so even if I trash it and re-download it, it just dosent let me do anything so idk what I can do, also I’m on mac

[chilly vapor]

i was trying to download smapi and he dont find the game, i put the game directory and appeared my game inst compatible

somebody can help me? please

[summer swan]

Platform?

[chilly vapor]

steam

[summer swan]

You're using legacy?

[chilly vapor]

idk what is legacy

[summer swan]

In your Steam library right click on Stardew Valley. Go to "Betas" and check if you're opt in to a beta.

Because if you need to use legacy you can't mod as far as I know.

[chilly vapor]

aaah

my game lag if i dont use legacy sad

but thanks

[neat plaza]

!legacymodding

[native dragon]

In some rare cases, you may need to use the compatibility branch in order to play Stardew Valley, but SMAPI does not run with the compatibility branch. See here for more information on why it happens and how to solve it: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#SMAPI_doesn.27t_work_with_the_compatibility_branch
For help or more information, ask in #archived-modded-support

[sacred sable]

Could someone help with this like is it possible to change the permissions

[mild talon]

Kind of a random question.. but is the Null Ref Exception error that says something about "bells and whistles" exclusive to Child to NPC oopsies ?

Or does bells and whistles means something

[halcyon igloo]

i’ve seen it for uhh warp errors i think?

[mild talon]

Good to know.
I just recall Lemur mentioned it somewhere about the C2NPC bugs.. was a while ago

[neat plaza]

it's a folder in the source iirc

maybe a class actually

[mild talon]

In the source.. Content ? Of game?

Sorry, I'm not following. These sound like code words.. that apply to c# mods or the game ?

[neat plaza]

source code

[mild talon]

Ok.. and what is a class?

Like.. a category maybe 🤔

[neat plaza]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_(computer_programming)

[mild talon]

Oh, it's a Thing. Lol

[lament prairie]

bells and whistles errors are frequently warp errors

but not exclusive;y

the whole trace is needed for a diagnosis

[robust holly]

hey uhh, i downloaded the whole expanded mod and stuff, all the other mods you need too. for some reason, nothing is working on that.

[lament prairie]

!log

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[robust holly]

whar?

[summer swan]

Go to the site.

And upload your smapi log there. It will (hopefully) tell us what's wrong.

[robust holly]

when i did the %appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs thing, it just didn't work

[neat plaza]

did you open smapi

[robust holly]

yeah i did

i installed it to stardew

[summer swan]

When you start the game: Do you have a 2nd window opening beside the game itself?

[robust holly]

let me check that.

nope

[summer swan]

If not: Did you set the launch options in Steam?

[robust holly]

launch options??

[gaunt gust]

!launchoptions

[native dragon]

If you're using Steam or GOG on Windows, you will need to set your launch options in order for Steam/GOG to automatically launch with SMAPI. The SMAPI installer will tell you what to set as the launch options when it completes (green text). You can find instructions (with screenshots) on how to do that here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Configure_your_game_client

[robust holly]

where are the launch options 😭

[summer swan]

You skipped a step. Follow the guide.

[robust holly]

...which is where?

[summer swan]

Above your post after InsufferableRustFan using the command.

[halcyon igloo]

literally immediately after the "Install SMAPI" section lol

[summer swan]

Basically: You need to tell Steam to start the game with SMAPI or it will start the game without SMAPI. Depending on that you start with or without mods.

[robust holly]

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" is this what i have to put in?

[summer swan]

Is the game installed in that path?

And the %command% needs to be there too at the end.

[robust holly]

oh ok

alright FINALLY it worked

i think

ok cool

[summer swan]

Keep in mind: Modded games need longer to start / load.

[robust holly]

alr

[summer swan]

Depending on the type / amount of mods we're talking about several minutes.

Good news: When SDV is done, it's done until you load another save or restart the game.

[dull moss]

Hey there I got what might a stupid question, do mods disable achievements like, forever? across worlds? or is it just in that world

[summer swan]

Mods shouldn't disable achievements.

[dull moss]

Oh really? I just kinda assumed they would haha

[summer swan]

SDV isn't one of those evil games where you can't get achievements because you use mods.

[dull moss]

Okay because I saw online about mods disabling achievements (like making them unobtainable) but I must of taken that as Stardew disabling the achievements haha

Thank you

if you launch through steam you'll get your achievements

One of your issues seems to be from "Family Planning" and according to your SMAPI log you can update to an unofficial version.

can you load into a save and try sending the log again?

I don't see any errors in your log, but you've also not loaded a save

yes, the unofficial version also seems to not be working, so I may just remove it overall @summer swan

what i do not get is this was at 12am.. no events going on-

[gaunt gust]

Yes, schedules in stardew are quite fragile and sometimes you get things like "npcs wandering by"

You sorta just have to live with it lol.

[brave lotus]

i'm okay with that haha- what about the npc finders (a lot of them are clumped into the corner- like Marlon and some expanded characters) I assume that's because they can't be detected on the map?

I got an issue, so I use smapi and 39 mods I think, and when I open the game is not loading well, is stuck on mods loaded, maybe is because is got sdv expanded?

[dull jetty]

hi! i installed smapi and some mods the other day but i've discovered that now my journal entries disappear when i complete part of them like when i got the dark talisman quest and got the dark talisman from the sewers, it didn't tell me to bring it back to the railroad. is my game glitching or is that just how that quest works?

[summer swan]

You see any red in the SMAPI window? If not: Just wait. Depending on the amount / type of mods it can take minutes for the game to start / load.

[summer swan]

If I remember correctly from vanilla it doesn't tell you. Just go back to the railroad where the wizard was. I guess it's not a typical quest as the wizard told you what to do. 🤷‍♀️

[sonic sail]

nope, just a kind of yellow because i use space core, I got red when the mods weren't working, but thank youu

hey so, i am aware you can do a few things with the base console commands that SMAPI offers but i was just wondering if i can target another player in multiplayer using those commands? my partner despises grinding foraging so i was planning on upping their exp once i max it myself

[sonic sail]

Wait, quick question, what if I detele smapi and get it again, maybe is gonna work, but I think I have to wait until nexus is working again

[summer swan]

Nexus is currently working again.

[summer swan]

You tried the steps for "smapi slow"?

[strong dirge]

Does anybody have a solution to "Error preloading content pack <Mod Name>"?

[sonic sail]

Yeah, I removed the mods and now is stuck on mods loaded and ready, I only left the ones that said it the wiki

Should I download smapi again?

[summer swan]

And you did wait 5-10 minutes?

[sonic sail]

Yep

I'mma try to download it again

[summer swan]

You might upload your log (that contains your modlist too) and maybe somebody else can help with that. 🤷‍♀️

[sonic sail]

yeahh, I will try

[river trellis]

henlo! today i've got the problem with my modded game. All the boots i have are turning red (on my character). Only after tailoring them they are turning into the proper color. But when i take them off the same problem happens. I managed to find that this problem occured also to other players but i have no idea how to do it properly. I dont want to mess up my save file https://www.reddit.com/r/StardewValley/comments/yug6is/shoes_suddenly_turned_red/

[supple quail]

What do I do if I see red text in smapi that is multiple lines long and happens only when I sleep

[thorny niche]

yeah okay that makes sense thank you!

[strong dirge]

Issue fixed, however now it doesn't recognize the manifest.json file [Fixed]

[mild talon]

I keep having this error w Automate.. I don't know what's wrong :/

[robust bison]

I think it's an issue with PFMAutomate

with one of the inputs?

[mild talon]

Hmm.. OK. Thanks

Maybe it's the mushlixirs... SNAPI gave me so many pfm errors and I went thru and fixed most of them. Gotta find em all I guess 🤷

I just thought it would ignore those things rather than mess up the whole system

[olive perch]

i got it where im playing on gamepass on my chromebook does anyone know how to play stardew expanded on here

i have it downloaded i just dont know how to open it

[dusty spruce]

game pass... on Chromebook?

[olive perch]

mhm

[dusty spruce]

doesn't Chromebook run only like Android apps?

[olive perch]

nope

[echo light]

how can i download mods on android?

[dusty spruce]

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

There is no working android SMAPI right now, after the mobile 1.5 release. No Android SMAPI means no mods on Android right now. ZaneYork, the developer of Android SMAPI, has said he will work on it when he has time. You can follow this Github issue for details, but please do not harass him or spam the Github. https://github.com/ZaneYork/SMAPI-Android-Installer/issues/246

When there is one, the instructions here will be updated: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Android

[dusty spruce]

@olive perch is it via cloud?

[olive perch]

yea

[dusty spruce]

i'm afraid you won't be able to mod that

[olive perch]

darn

[echo light]

Can i use on 1.5?

[dusty spruce]

no

[echo light]

oof

[dusty spruce]

did you read the message from the bot?

[echo light]

yes

[dusty spruce]

it clearly says you cannot mod 1.5 on Android right now

[echo light]

my english is bad sorry

[mild talon]

Ok, wanna try to fix the error here so the event can play.. (SMAPI saved the day but it had to kill the event)

Where is the problem tho..?

OH.. i got it. I think. NVM.

[dire fractal]

How do I uninstall mods

I got this

[proven pewter]

use the SMAPI installer to uninstall

[robust bison]

and clear your steam launch options

[dire fractal]

Just did that and it worked

thanks

[scenic bronze]

anyone knows why BFAV animals only make products when the game is in English?

[remote nacelle]

I can not seem to get smapi to download onto my mac. I click the command and get "[Errno 1] Operation not permitted: 'internal'" I don't know what to do. I just need an auto fishing mod cuz I my hands cant move right to make it work.

[worthy sundial]

wait, what

[frigid lantern]

so I got SDVE and I didn’t even go into the community center but suddenly it cut to a scene where the community center is gone and Joja mart “won” and I’m literally on like day 5 is it supposed to do that?

[worthy sundial]

do you mean you can't run the smapi install file?

[remote nacelle]

correct. it wont run. It opens, and then I get an error.

[frigid lantern]

You might have to unzip it mine did that

[remote nacelle]

It doent appear to be a zip file.

[worthy sundial]

you need to run the .sh file on terminal

i think it's a .sh for mac

[remote nacelle]

it shows for me as "install on macos.command" ...I dont see a mac .sh file.

[worthy sundial]

yes, it's that file

[remote nacelle]

that's the one giving me an error

[worthy sundial]

try opening the terminal

typing sh, space and drop the file there

it used to work for me

[remote nacelle]

It still gives me the error.

[worthy sundial]

maybe this?

that's what the wiki says

[remote nacelle]

I tried that.... and it wont let me add it to the list. T_T maybe it's not compatible with the newest mac update?

[worthy sundial]

you need to click the lock icon

before giving the permission

[remote nacelle]

it is unlocked. It wont let me add it to the list to approve it.

[worthy sundial]

you need to add terminal

terminal is on the applications folder

[mild talon]

Hi @proven pewter - is this related to the new Warp Network possibly?

I can post my whole log.. just had a TON of errors from something else that I'm pretty sure I effed up (early community upgrades)

But that one seemed like a solo error amid the many others

[proven pewter]

that seems unlikely?

[gaunt gust]

That's spritemaster, btw.

Well, probably spritemaster, spritemaster is who's doing concurrent programming

[mild talon]

What is?

[gaunt gust]

"InvalidOperationException: Operations that change non-concurrent"

[mild talon]

Oh.. that " " means it's from SM?

[proven pewter]

it could be something trying to modify the buildings list while warp network is reading it? but as far as I know that should never happen because stardew is single-threaded

and if that is the problem there's literally nothing I can do to fix it. also, it would be an old bug and not a new one, since I haven't touched that part of the code since the last update

seeing the whole error would be helpful

[mild talon]

Ok, that's good!
I just reloaded the game and it seems that all the ECU errors are gone. Maybe that one is too?

I was tryna cheat the shortcuts in and they weren't working w SVR3 so I tried the "instant unlock" for them and it worked fine, mostly. One was broken. But then I changed settings in SVR3 and turned off some relevant maps and it made ECU very upset.
Guess I'll have to do it the old-fashioned way

Yeeah.. the DW Obelisk doesn't seem to be there either. Hard to tell w/o looking at the real log tho..
False alarm. Thanks!!

[proven pewter]

all good

[fickle hemlock]

anyone know how to fix the map

[halcyon igloo]

what about it?

[mild talon]

Whaaat.. can SMAPI really be OOM ?

[fickle hemlock]

like isnt there supposed to be houses and a bridge on the right?

[summer swan]

Refresh the site and pretend you never saw it?

[halcyon igloo]

oh east scarp hmm

ima trying.. maybe it's Chrome ?

[summer swan]

Oh. That wasn't a one time joke?

[plain latch]

is there a working pc smapi??

[summer swan]

@mild talon Works as intended on Chrome for me.

[mild talon]

hm it's not working on firefox either.
.. must be me ?!

[summer swan]

For PC you just use normal SMAPI from Nexus. It's just that mobile currently has no SMAPI because that one needs to be adjusted (lots of work).

[proven pewter]

yes. you can tell because it doesn't give a numerical error code

[plain latch]

oki well it be broken

[summer swan]

My Firefox is happy with the page too.

[proven pewter]

that means it's an application error and not a site error

[mild talon]

I am out of memory?

[proven pewter]

all web errors have standardized response codes assigned to them

[proven pewter]

I guess so?

[summer swan]

Try restarting your pc?

[mild talon]

idek how i would check that

[proven pewter]

task manager

[mild talon]

yeah,, thats always a good move

[halcyon igloo]

it's not broken how did you install it

[plain latch]

via every step in two different youtube videos

[summer swan]

Or did you try to install pc smapi on android? That won't work.

[mild talon]

i have at least half of my memory.. i think

IDK how to read this TBH

[summer swan]

Not to bad. Try restarting chrome or the entire pc.

[mild talon]

yes.. byebye

[summer swan]

Maybe "Windows doing Windows things in the background".

@plain latch 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

[native dragon]

The Stardew modding scene is always being updated, and as such video guides are often outdated or deprecated. For the most recent install guide, see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide.

[summer swan]

Uninstall SMAPI and follow that guide from the beginning to the end.

[halcyon igloo]

to the end

[mild talon]

That also didn't work. Hmm.

[fickle hemlock]

thats the normal sve map but mines looks like this

[mild talon]

What's a good number to have on the memory % in the task manager
And how do I get More?

[summer swan]

You've installed anything else like East Scarp or so? It might be their map.

[mild talon]

Now it says 31% Memory.
That sounds worse 😕

(Unless that number is the % in use)

[fickle hemlock]

yeah

[halcyon igloo]

(% in use)

[mild talon]

Lol thanks

[fickle hemlock]

i have ridgeside village, east scarp, and sve

[plain latch]

Already done 3 or 4 times.

[mild talon]

It shows 7 Google Drive tasks in the background.. for Some reason. Think I just need 1 or none?? Ugh

That gave me 30% in use. (I think I'm trying ti get the number down right?)

[halcyon igloo]

with the instructions from the wiki and not a video guide?

[gaunt gust]

It really doesn't matter

[mild talon]

I have 6 Steam Client WebHelpers going

[gaunt gust]

It really. Doesn't. Matter

[mild talon]

Why all the duplicate things ? I'm so lost on machine

[worthy sundial]

i don't think that's a stardew valley issue

[halcyon igloo]

honestly just restart your computer lol

[mild talon]

The smapi won't do my log

I just did lol

[summer swan]

You're using tab saving in chrome? If so: close chrome (and what belongs to it). Wait a few seconds. Open Firefox and try only to access the smapi page (no other pages).
Close Steam too.

And yes: This is probably the wrong channel.

[plain latch]

Nope two different YouTube videos

[halcyon igloo]

well do it with the wiki instructions

like we've been saying

[gaunt gust]

Hi! Do you have anyone irl who can help you?

[summer swan]

Maybe there's something outdated. Hence we say to use the wiki instructions. Because we know those work.

[jaunty kernel]

Hi everyone 🙂 is this the place to go when I need help troubleshooting a problem with my game? I'll have my updated SMAPI log shortly but I'm really quite struggling with this issue thats made the game break completely

[worthy sundial]

it is!

[jaunty kernel]

Great! Let me introduce my issue while SMAPI loads up my latest version.

I have a very heavily modded game and so far no bugs or glitches until last night. I got back to back cutscenes outside of my farmhouse:

1. Morris thanks me for assisting with his townhouse, and asks me to visit sometime.
2. Pierre then tells me about Lewis vs. Morris running as mayor

The problem occurs after whenever I attempt to either leave the farm or enter a building on my farm. The screen fades to black as it does during the transition to locations, but then freezes. I've tested this on my "test farm" and I could run everywhere I wanted with no problem so it seems to be directly related to those cutscenes.

[hot venture]

Is anyone here familiar with trying to install SMAPI on the steam deck? We've read every guide Google can find and it will not work for us? I really want to play modded but if we can't figure this out it won't be happening anytime soon

[gaunt gust]

!steamdecksmapi

[native dragon]

When installing SMAPI on a Steam Deck, some users have encountered performance issues. If you do, you can try experimenting between the different installation options listed here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Steam_Deck

[worthy sundial]

hmm... can you send your SMAPI log?

[hot venture]

That link was the first thing we found and tried

[gaunt gust]

Are you using proton or native?

[hot venture]

We tried both

Couldn't make Linux work so we switched it to proton and still struggling

[gaunt gust]

Okay, which step are you stuck on

[jaunty kernel]

https://smapi.io/log/42fca15a7b154180ad8fe8c33e3db589

My game freezes and this only started happening after a back to back cutscene with Morris and then Pierre.
It's a bit annoying that it's recommending I update two mods when I have multiple times. They aren't "sticking"

[native dragon]

Log Info: SMAPI 3.18.1 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 1.3.37.0) on Unix 5.13.0.36, with 52 C# mods and 150 content packs.
Suggested fixes: Pytk isn't compatible with newer SMAPI performance optimizations, consider removing it, One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[hot venture]

Neither of us can understand what the README.txt file is telling us to do. I feel dumb admitting it but it's like trying to read another language

[worthy sundial]

the mod version probably due to the mod authors not updating the version number on the mod files

[gaunt gust]

Do you have any experience with arch?

[worthy sundial]

plus it's probably a pytk issue

[jaunty kernel]

I've had it for a while with no issues and one of my NPCs requires it but if I have to go without, I might just do that.
I don't mind the game being slow

[hot venture]

No, never even heard of it

[gaunt gust]

SteamDeck runs a variant of Arch Linux

they have about one of the best explainer wikis, but it's pretty dense to get into https://wiki.archlinux.org/

unfortunately I feel that this is probably a case where I can't be of much help over a text based-format, especially since I do need to leave soon

[hot venture]

That's ok, I figured this would be a long shot anyway. I'm chalking this up to me just not being tech savvy enough to understand how to do it. But thank you for trying

[gaunt gust]

We might have to see if we can convince someone to do a youtube video...

(I also don't have a steam deck, but I use Linux as my main operating system, so I know how much of a shock it is going from Windows or Mac to Linux....)

[worthy sundial]

maybe try updating pytk? from the log, that may be the issue

[hot venture]

If anyone makes a video I will greatly appreciate it

[long brook]

Can you try to get the game freeze then send the new log?

[jaunty kernel]

Oh I'm not sure what you mean. I've tried playing quite a few times. This is the most recent log. Once it freezes I'm forced to shut it down.

[long brook]

That log you send only shows that you load the game. So play the game until you get the game freeze/crash then send the log again. There might be an error

[jaunty kernel]

I will do that now! It takes about 10 minutes to load the game so I'll be back then 🙂

[long brook]

!sm try add this mod and turn off the resample if you don't like the looks of the game. This mod slightly improve loading time and performance

[native dragon]

SpriteMaster (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4922) is a mod that resamples the game's graphics to be smoother and improves performance.

[jaunty kernel]

I'll do that after! I've already started the 10 minute loading process 😂

[violet harness]

Hello! ^^ Lately I've been changing some pngs of the game for personal use (Cat & Horse so they would look like mine, I wouldn't call it modding tbf) but I'm having trouble finding the archive with this portrait. If someone knows where to find it I would be very grateful, currently playing on Steam. Thanks!

[worthy sundial]

the game doesn't store it's info in .png, it stores it in .xnb

are you altering a mod?

[robust bison]

@violet harness See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files#Unpack_game_files for instructions on how to unpack XNB files in order to edit the assets inside!

my gf is using the same one and she doesnt crash thats why im confused

[robust bison]

is this multiplayer?

[long brook]

You load a save that contain SVE, but no SVE on your part

[robust bison]

you all need the same mods

Found it! It was there on cursors.xnb. Thanks :p

so just update the info suite and get sve

yes

[frank tinsel]

okay tysm

(still here btw- accidentally closed while waiting for the game to load...another 10 minutes to go)

[worthy sundial]

make sure you have all of the same mods as your gf

[worthy sundial]

that's ok! we can wait...

Y'all weren't kidding about Sprite master....that was a 2 minute load versus 10 😯😯

To everyone who helped thank you!!!!

Okay here's a new question!

[summer swan]

You crashed and have the log with the crash?

[jaunty kernel]

I had Farmers to Florist installed for a while but never realized I didn't have Dynamic Game Assets installed to make it work.
So I did that.
But most, if not all, of the recipes from Farmer to Florist come through the mail (I looked it up)
I don't have any mail.
Well I got one and it said enjoy the gift and there was no gift

[halcyon igloo]

download the old JA version in the file archives

[long brook]

Download the ja version of farmer to florist

[robust bison]

!ppjadga

[native dragon]

The latest released version of PPJA (Project Populate Json Assets, a popular mod) is a conversion from JA to DGA, but it has some bugs in it, and the mod author has retired. Sticking with the older JA version is probably your best option.

You can download the JA version from the Old Files section on Nexus, or by downloading the latest versions of the standalone components instead of the megapack (except for Farmer to Florist, where you would need to look under Old Files in the standalone version).

[jaunty kernel]

I have this:

I did it backwards.
This then DGA

(because im dumb)

[long brook]

Under files, there's ja version. Delete the dga version and install ja one

[jaunty kernel]

I'm trying this now!
I didn't notice that because the JA one is under 'Old Files' and I never scroll that far

[long brook]

And also, ignore if the mod ask for update

[lost shuttle]

I'll have to open back up and fo some test warping cause it shuts my game down so I can't actually see it

[halcyon igloo]

you can grab your last log from the crash

THANK YOU!!! ☺️☺️☺️

it's working
I'm getting some of my new recipes

[lost shuttle]

Ugh it's just not giving it to me because my internet is acting up. I have to run my computer on my phone Hotspot and it's just not loading

[robust bison]

if you can transfer the txt file to your phone you can upload it here

[lost shuttle]

I cant open discord on my computer cause of the internet problem lol

[halcyon igloo]

you can upload it to smapi on your phone and then post the url

if you can get the txt

[lost shuttle]

I cant run the log on my phone cause the file is on my computer

[halcyon igloo]

can you file transfer

[lost shuttle]

That is beyond the effort I have for this lol. I'm probably just gonna go to bed and never warp again lol

I will try to get the log another time. But idk how tonfile transfer and my internet is just being too dumb rn

Hey um, does anyone know why they have different dialogue? I don't have any mods installed - this is a vanilla save - so ...

Note: I have never once used XNB mods, those are much to dangerous imo

Goodness would this just be in technical support I have no clue

[lament prairie]

This is vanilla lines

The egg festival has 2 years of dialogue iirc

[wary elbow]

They... do? I have 4k hours in this game

Four thousand hours and I never knew this was not a modded feature. I have perfected this game

[summer swan]

Yes. It's the odd and other years switching. 😅

[potent token]

anyone know how to fix this

[mild talon]

@proven pewter - actually, I think there's something off w mine too.. this is Jade's HD portrait

Denver's was just blank. But I made the conversion for it and thought I'd just done something wrong (still possible)

[potent token]

what’s up w portraits bro

[proven pewter]

if you send me a zip I'll take a look at it tomorrow

[mild talon]

For the portrait mods? Ok

This is Cecilia's.. same thing. It shows fine in the mobile phone but not in reg dialogue box.
I get you're busy.. I'll send you stuff when you got time

[potent token]

it’s happening for most custom npc mods

[mild talon]

I think it's just the HD portraits. My other custom npcs are fine so far

Like, Luciliel not anime/not HD shows up fine (Airyn's portrait)

Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[civic shuttle]

here you go

[halcyon igloo]

hmmmm might be broken mod syndrome (seems to be a VERY old mod)

[civic shuttle]

yeah it worked before

the nexusmods page has 2 comments

one from 2019 where it worked

and one from 2022 where it didnt

[halcyon igloo]

content patcher has probably had tons of updates since then lol

[civic shuttle]

yeah, is there any page that shows information on how to update mods

[halcyon igloo]

slash the game itself

[civic shuttle]

wdym

[jade pivot]

Can someone help an idiot who doesn't understand mods fix a mod?
I am trying to download the mod that replaces the skeleton mask with a kitsune mask. It makes all the hats added in/after 1.5 invisible though. I found this thing explaining how to make the kitsune mask mod not make all the hats invisible, but I don't understand the instructions.

I downloaded the attachment and opened up the content.json file

[long brook]

It's an old mod that made for 1.4 sdv so it might be broken for this sdv version

[civic shuttle]

oh

[halcyon igloo]

did you try the fix in the comments?

[civic shuttle]

well i dont wanna run the game on 1.4-

soo

how do i update the mod to 1.5

[halcyon igloo]

.

[civic shuttle]

ne?

me

[long brook]

Either you change some coding or make fron scratch

[halcyon igloo]

yes there's some sort of suggestion in the comments?

[atomic smelt]

anyone know if theres a way to load the custom furniture mod without PtyK?

[long brook]

Convert them to dga

[halcyon igloo]

@ beetle

[halcyon igloo]

oops lol

[atomic smelt]

lol

[civic shuttle]

i guess i can figure out how to do that, do you have a good documentation for content patcher so i can follow along?

[halcyon igloo]

!cp

[native dragon]

Content Patcher (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1915) is a mod which loads content packs to change the game's images and data without replacing XNB files. If you want to make mods using Content Patcher, start at https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Content_Patcher.

[civic shuttle]

alr thanks

[halcyon igloo]

yeah i think the code is just super outdated

[civic shuttle]

oh btw just so no confusion

does the json file still come out as fine in the smapi io json if its out dated

[long brook]

That link only check for typo in coding

[halcyon igloo]

it just doesn't have any comma or bracket errors ;P

[civic shuttle]

oh

alr then

[jade pivot]

Screw it, I'm fixing the mod myself

[halcyon igloo]

i do not know how to get patches to Data/Bundles to apply i am going to play the game 😌

[jade pivot]

Ok
So I want the kitsune mask to only change the skeleton mask
I copy-pasted this part from another CP mod that changes hats and changed the numbers to match the coordinates of the kitsune mask/skeleton mask in the 2 image files

When I try to boot up the game, I get this error

[Event Repeater] This mod failed in the GameLoop.GameLaunched event. Technical details: Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: Can't parse JSON file at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods\[CP] long kitsune mask\content.json.

Then a little further down I get another one:

[halcyon igloo]

run it through the json validator

[jade pivot]

What is that and how do I do that?

[halcyon igloo]

missing a comma

after your FromFile line

[jade pivot]

Oh I see that. Let me add the comma and try again

[halcyon igloo]

use patch reload with the UniqueID of the mod*

[jade pivot]

Thank you for helping me! The kitsune mask is conflicting with another mod that changes one of the hats, so I am trying to have it only change the skeleton mask portion of the hats file

[halcyon igloo]

good way to do it

[jade pivot]

How exactly do I do this? I added the comma and am still getting the errors. I'm very dumb and know nothing about mods other than how to download them

[halcyon igloo]

in the manifest.json there should be a field that says UniqueID

or something along those lines lol

[jade pivot]

This?

What do I do with it?

[halcyon igloo]

the first one

[jade pivot]

This one?

[halcyon igloo]

in the smapi console after you make changes to the content.json type patch reload contrarequiallas.kitsunemasks to load the changes

lol what a long username

[jade pivot]

Oh ok. So that makes it so I don't have to close SMAPI every time I make a change to see if it worked?

[halcyon igloo]

yep

[jade pivot]

Okay, I am still getting the errors after I added the comma. What else am I doing wrong, do you know?

[halcyon igloo]

https://smapi.io/json use the content patcher format

[jade pivot]

Oki

Do I just have to change the 1.19.0 to 1.28.0?

[halcyon igloo]

yeah

[jade pivot]

Will that fix it?
