[mild talon]

So it's not installed correctly

[wicked yoke]

right.

[mild talon]

You have all the dependecies?

[wicked yoke]

but im not sure where we went wrong.

[mild talon]

The log will show why it's skipped. Or you saying it doesn't show on log at all

[halcyon igloo]

well the question is are they in the right spot 😅 you could at least start SMAPI with mods right?

[delicate holly]

all im seeing is the installer 😭

[halcyon igloo]

no StardewModdingAPI.exe?

[wicked yoke]

let me double check. she said she got them but im not sure she did.

[halcyon igloo]

are you in the stardew valley steam files folder or somewhere else

[delicate holly]

steam files sdv

[halcyon igloo]

even if you’re missing dependencies for a download it should tell you that you’re missing dependencies

[mild talon]

Doesn't this say S M A P I in long form lol ?

[halcyon igloo]

did you run the installer?

[halcyon igloo]

yes lol

but it’s what it looks like in the files so

[delicate holly]

mhm-

[fallen oak]

here its my log I deleted and redownloaded the game with few mods but still

[wicked yoke]

yeah she did.

[fallen oak]

https://smapi.io/log/e7efeef929ee419092cc746d73fe8c6f

[delicate holly]

that opened this

ive installed smapi

[native dragon]

Log Info: SMAPI 3.18.2 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Microsoft Windows 10 Home, with 6 C# mods and 0 content packs.

[delicate holly]

but here we are now

[neat plaza]

you opened the xml file

[delicate holly]

thats the only api file i have 😭

[halcyon igloo]

O.o which file specifically did you click to install smapi with

[neat plaza]

send a screenshot of the folder

[delicate holly]

smapi installer file

[neat plaza]

very vague

which file specifically

[halcyon igloo]

the specific name of the file

[neat plaza]

as in, exact file name

[halcyon igloo]

like copy paste it if you have to

[hoary bane]

!reset

[native dragon]

@fallen oak See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! (This doesn't affect your save files.)

[hoary bane]

No RSV in sight though, I assume this was in purpose because you're starting a clean slate?

[delicate holly]

SMAPI.installer (application)

did all the stuff abt press 1 or 2 and all

[fallen oak]

yes it was ım not sure what causes the crash

[neat plaza]

you should be running the bat file

[delicate holly]

sobbing

[halcyon igloo]

install on windows.bat

[neat plaza]

looks like your AV may have eaten it if it wasn't the installer issue

[delicate holly]

h o w tf

😭😭😭😭

[hoary bane]

Looks like you're missing some of the base game files. Check the link I sent a few messages up!

[delicate holly]

i just want a cozy game this is a headache

[delicate holly]

what do i do abt that

[hoary bane]

Wait, Theo?

[mild talon]

(Who is Theo?)

[delicate holly]

how do i do that

[neat plaza]

your mouse

[delicate holly]

this is gonna cause a breakdown/j

[hoary bane]

LOL I read as Leo. I have no idea..

[mild talon]

Their farmer maybe?

[halcyon igloo]

reinstall SMAPI

[delicate holly]

alr

[halcyon igloo]

by clicking install on windows.bat

[fallen oak]

steam says ı have all the files

[neat plaza]

https://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+click+a+file+using+a+mouse

[hoary bane]

Theo and Tabitha? Hmmm..

[mild talon]

Who is Theo? They cannot be found

[hoary bane]

Is that from Stray cat cafe?

[delicate holly]

done

[halcyon igloo]

check for SMAPI.exe again in the folder

[delicate holly]

woo found it

[mild talon]

The SMAPI installer is the easy part. I like it! Cute little box pop-up

[delicate holly]

mhm

so simple

[halcyon igloo]

don’t move it this time LOL

[delicate holly]

im not lol

ok it read the mods finally

and

WOOO YEAHH

DHDJSKD TYYYY

[mild talon]

( Why would the video guider tell viewers to move the smapi.exe thing anyway? )

[delicate holly]

idk 😭

i was mislead by her lmao

[mild talon]

I know lol Pillow or holy might

[neat plaza]

i really don't

[halcyon igloo]

throw video guides in the trash

[neat plaza]

there's no reason to move an exe from its install location

[mild talon]

Yeah, weird advice

[delicate holly]

anddd it crashed bc of my stupid slow com

[mild talon]

R u on discord on your pc?

[delicate holly]

time to close everything n try again

nope

[halcyon igloo]

you misunderstood how to create a desktop shortcut

[delicate holly]

phone

[mild talon]

K jc

[mild talon]

Ohh.

Yeah that's how I open my game.. click the chicken on desktop and smapi starts up

[halcyon igloo]

“send to desktop” creates a shortcut, straight up moving it does not

[delicate holly]

ive always simply sent it w the button

yeah w send to desktop

i don’t drag it-

[neat plaza]

oooh it doesn't actually tell you to move it

[halcyon igloo]

no it just says “add to desktop” lol

[delicate holly]

ah

[neat plaza]

i guess 11 automatically does a shortcut when you drag an exe? (idk, im still on 10)

[astral plover]

does it actually

[delicate holly]

usually

[neat plaza]

just guessing

[mild talon]

I have Windows 11. I have no idea.

Ah.. there it is

[delicate holly]

for me nah if its a huge file but otherwise yeah

im getting a new laptop later n i cant wait, windows sucks most of the time for me

[rotund wave]

guys i really dont know what to do about this bed glitch everything on reddit or google in general isn't helping. ive tried deleting stardew off steam and reisntalling and its fine on regular stardew but when i load smapi even with 0 mods it still happens. anyone know how to fix this?

[halcyon igloo]

“add it to your desktop” ❌ “create a desktop shortcut” ✅

[mild talon]

I'm amazed I walked through the whole installing game and mods etc blind and it worked out fine. I knew Nothing about computer games before playing this one lol

See so many having troubles

[halcyon igloo]

no it legit took me maybe like 10 minutes lol but i’ve been unsupervised on the internet since i was like 11

[mild talon]

Maybe having prior knowledge can hurt ?

[halcyon igloo]

i don’t even remember if i came here first before modding anymore or if i googled “stardew valley modding”

[delicate holly]

yeah so this time the desktop shortcut worked

i know why mine didnt last time

it ate the app n moved the xl so it wouldnt work lol

[mild talon]

^ I did Google. Had no idea there were servers like this

[halcyon igloo]

i just wanted to talk about mods lol

i think i did like a nexus dive for my first set of mods

[craggy condor]

hmm still getting crashes on steam deck

[native dragon]

Log found, uploaded to: https://smapi.io/log/c2aca3285bd14114806162c8cc215a9e

[halcyon igloo]

what does crashing mean in this instance

[craggy condor]

I create a character, then it crashes right before loading into the game. Like I can see the inside of the player home for 1 frame, it freezes, then crashes a few seconds later

[mild talon]

Keep trying maybe? That's happened to me before on new save

[craggy condor]

These are my mods

[mild talon]

Idk why. Worked on try 4 I think

[craggy condor]

I tried more than 4 times, tried on grandpa's farm like 5 times. Then tried on another vanilla farm, thinking it was grandpa's farm, but it did it on that one too

[mild talon]

Hm. I see no red or errors on your log

[halcyon igloo]

did you get it to work without mods at least

[craggy condor]

It worked before, vanilla, yeah

[halcyon igloo]

but with smapi and just the 3 main mods?

[craggy condor]

oh, no. Just vanilla, then smapi and all my mods. I'll try just smapi and the 3 mods it comes with

[halcyon igloo]

i also feel like you are missing several RSV components

[dapper gazelle]

maybe try resetting your files to see if that'll help?

!reset

[rotund wave]

i just do that in the cmd that opens when i run smapi?

[halcyon igloo]

read the link the governor sent

[rotund wave]

okay thank you ill give it a go

[craggy condor]

I thought/hoped so too but I checked the requirements for RSV and it seems like I have everything listed

[sudden summit]

can anyone help me figure out what the deal is? https://smapi.io/log/63102e267c2c4add89ec125494fcd6e6

hmmmm i’m not sure, troubleshooting steam deck is hard 🙃 did you get it to work with no mods?

[dire fractal]

Hi Guys
I'm having a really odd bug. I use Lovely Kitchen Mod, but when I exit the house and come back in it does this?
Any one know how I can fix this.

[mild talon]

It reverts to vanilla kitchen?

[dire fractal]

yeah

[halcyon igloo]

the cellar doors???

[dire fractal]

im really not at all sure why though

yeahhh I want my lovely pink cabinets back

[green iris]

@everyone can anyone help me about "how to fix content patcher.dll failed to load properly"

[dire fractal]

I haven't downloaded anything but did a few updates

[mild talon]

I believe Marlon's name is changed in SVE. To MarlonFay or something

[halcyon igloo]

pls don’t use @ everyone

[mild talon]

What does that even do?

[craggy condor]

Yes, it works with SMAPI and the 3 mod folders it comes with. So must be a mod causing the issue?

[halcyon igloo]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[green iris]

ok i just thought if anypne would knew the answer will help ?

[mild talon]

They'll see your q and respond if they can help

[halcyon igloo]

@ everyone in a big server like this is super rude

[green iris]

im really sorry

[halcyon igloo]

yeah might be a mod. nothing in your log screamed “problem” at me but ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[neat plaza]

i thought that timed you out tbh

[halcyon igloo]

i thought it did too

[neat plaza]

(source: myself being timed out)

[craggy condor]

any suspicious mods you see that could cause performance issues? that I should focus on first removing?

i don't want to go through every mod 😭

[halcyon igloo]

most of your mods i have except for SVE lol

and like bow legs redux, fishing rod recolor, rocky junimo hut

i don’t have range highlight but i feel like that’s not a known issue

take out the big expansions first

[craggy condor]

okay, I'll try that

[rotund wave]

so it says xnb files are no longer reccomended those are just like map extensions/aesthetics or what kind of mods are xnb

[neat plaza]

the ones that are xnb files

[rotund wave]

-_-

[long brook]

if the mod author ask you t overwrite files inside Content folder (which is xnb), that's xnb modding

[rotund wave]

ah

[halcyon igloo]

they provide xnb files that’s literally just what it is

[rotund wave]

im still having the double bed issue :c

could it just be my save is corrupted? like if i make a new one and then upgrade my house would the problem maybe be fixed? cause thats when the double beds happen is after the 2nd house upgrade

[dapper gazelle]

just to confirm, you reset the files per the instructions yeah? not just read the part about xnbs

[topaz matrix]

!log
Please

[dapper gazelle]

I'm not sure b/c whenever people report this issue it's after that second house upgrade

[rotund wave]

yes i validated all my steam files it said validated and then i loaded smapi again same thing. there weren’t any steps after validating the files

[topaz matrix]

I know a long time ago I had that issue but I forget which mod it was.
Maybe multiple spouses

[rotund wave]

like when i load stardew from steam the bed is normal it’s just on smapi thag it’s glitching

i have no mods right now

[topaz matrix]

Oh

[rotund wave]

yeah like i’m so confused lmao

[native dragon]

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

[native dragon]

Log found, uploaded to: https://smapi.io/log/06f6d165653d4cc2a7eb3a4bc16defae

[dapper gazelle]

oh forgot to ask... are you able to trash the bed?

and respawn one in using CJB perhaps?

[neat plaza]

(unrelated but I didn't know windows allowed tildes in paths)

[rotund wave]

no it doesn't let me move it just lets me sleep in it

[dapper gazelle]

ok!

[rotund wave]

i can move the one on the left just not the rightr

right*

[dapper gazelle]

even after resetting it still won't let you trash it?

[topaz matrix]

Reinstall smapi it is missing the error handling

[dapper gazelle]

yeah it looks like when you removed all your mods, you also removed the three that come with SMAPI

[rotund wave]

okay let me try that

i gotta remove it first or can i just use smapi installer and do install again

[dapper gazelle]

the latter

no need to remove, SMAPI will do its thing and overwrite as necessary

also it might be helpful to get a log with the mods you have normally

[rotund wave]

okay, so now once ive done that do i just startup smapi again or

[dapper gazelle]

It's odd though b/c as you can see in these old examples, resetting the files fixed the issue. Not sure why that's not working here #archived-modded-support message #archived-modded-support message

[rotund wave]

yea no the beds are both still there

wait

i did install some kind of clean cellar mod i think is what it was that could be the problem?

[dapper gazelle]

possibly?

I think sometimes it happens with older farmhouse expansions/layout changes, but it's weird that the issue persists even after removing the mod AND resetting the files

[rotund wave]

im gonna try upgrading my house again i thought there were only 2 upgrades but if that fixes it then it doesn't bother me

yeah no it did nothing lmao

[dapper gazelle]

can you post your log again, but with all the mods you were using before?

[rotund wave]

ill have to redownload them all it will take me a while but can i just @ you when im done?

[dapper gazelle]

sure.... when you removed them you didn't just...put them in another folder or something for safe keeping? 😅

[rotund wave]

no i did at first but then it didn't work still so i just tried deleting everything in hopes of making my game better and kind of gave up in that moment

i thought it had to be one of those mods causing it and i wasn't up for putting them in 1 by 1 and seeing which one so i just quit

[dire fractal]

https://smapi.io/log/19e0ec7c228b4c6c97dae8a48970ab04
Seems I still cannot fix it.
If there is anyone on that can assist me in fixing this I would appreciate it.
I have zero clue.

[dusky canyon]

Did you buy the game

[rotund wave]

thats just my user name on my pc

[tough drum]

Ive validated files but my 316 mod game wont start the next day after the first day the landslide is removed 3rd summer

[rotund wave]

~~ is like my actual windows user name

like i have no idea whats wrong with my game im so annoyed ;c

[neat plaza]

why's it on your desktop

[rotund wave]

smapi?

its just a shortcut

[neat plaza]

no your game

[rotund wave]

like the steam version?

[neat plaza]

ig yeah

[rotund wave]

like i have both on my desktop idk is that a problem

theyre just shortcuts

[dusky canyon]

Your whole gamefolder is on your Desktop

[long brook]

do you buy the game?

[rotund wave]

yes i bought the game on steam!!

[neat plaza]

why is it on your desktop?

[rotund wave]

did i really move my game folder instead of making a shortcut

i wanted to put my mods folder on desktop as a shortcut so i could extract a bunch of mods and then just drag n drop to the folder somewhat fast for convenience

but i guess i put that folder on my deskop um what do i do with it then

[lament prairie]

You can make a shortcut but if you actually move the folder it will stop working

[rotund wave]

yeah no i didnt mean to move the actual folder but ive never had a problem until now

hang on

yeah no theres still a stardew valley folder in local files on steam so it must just be an old duplicate

[long brook]

it's weird that you put game foldr on desktop

[rotund wave]

i just didn't mean to why is it weird

[long brook]

there will be confusion like this

[rotund wave]

i didn't notice it either

so it make a difference my game still wont load in when i click my save

hang on let me try something

[hasty willow]

Anyone got any clue as to why this happens?

nevermind, i'm an ape, i didn't download the translation lmao

[tough drum]

https://smapi.io/log/ba26dc15a1c54aa58d882b9b3835363d here is the latest log, if anybody can help me

[rotund wave]

okay @dapper gazelle it must have been that i was validating the files in the steam local files and then when i loaded smapi it was loading it from the stupid Stardew Valley folder that was on my desktop because i have deleted that folder and now the bed is normal!!

removed pytk, same issue with end of day summary summary not oading

I'm at a dead end

[gaunt gust]

npc is warping to a non existant location

try installing warp snitch?

[tough drum]

perhaps custom npc aspen? the custom character returns to their house in the mountains once the landslide is cleared summer 3

Are there any mods that still explicitly need pytk?

[lament prairie]

yes, there are some

Fishing Trawler for ex. still depends on TMXL, which depends on PyTK

Various NPC mod spouse rooms still use TMXL

There's various workarounds for some of them

[tough drum]

So it’s worth readding to my list once I fix my issue

[lament prairie]

Riley still uses TMXL but I converted for personal use

You can easily check by removing PyTK and seeing what doesn't work

If nothing screams when you remove PyTK, you're good to go

[tough drum]

Thanks for the help

[versed ravine]

so after i download smap what do i do to get mods into the game?

[neat plaza]

unzip them into your mods folder

[dapper gazelle]

(Fishing Trawler I think relies on PyTK directly and not via TMXL, so that one will be difficult to convert. I think that's why Peace was reworking it from the ground up)

[versed ravine]

how do i unzip a file?

[rotund wave]

i think it just means take it out of the winrar file and put it in the mods folder

[neat plaza]

platform?

[versed ravine]

nvm got it

[neat plaza]

not necessarily winrar

[versed ravine]

how do i get the mod to show in the game? im trying on laptop so i dont destory my switch

[versed ravine]

mhm i think i did, its showing on my pc

[halcyon igloo]

did you confirm that you can run stardew valley with smapi?

[versed ravine]

how do i do that? this is my first time

[halcyon igloo]

how did you install SMAPI? did you follow the guide from the wiki?

i got it from mod drop, but i might delete everything to restart

[halcyon igloo]

don't use mod drop, if you want to use a mod manager use stardrop

Everyone I got a question
How can I fix smapi

For Android

[halcyon igloo]

you can't

!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

[dire fractal]

Man

[dire fractal]

Bro 🙏

Thanks

[dapper gazelle]

I don't think I've had those issues with Aspen fwiw, Trooper

@tough drum She's not really being actively worked on but I also haven't had any issues with her schedule. this part here:

13:46:56 WARN Content Patcher Error loading patch 'Aspen > Aspen map's Changes': file 'assets\Maps\MapChanges.json' doesn't exist.. 13:46:56 WARN Content Patcher Ignored Aspen > custom location 'Custom_AspenFarm': the FromMapFile field specifies a file 'assets/Maps/AspenFarmRedux.tbin' which doesn't exist in the content pack. 13:46:56 WARN Content Patcher Ignored Aspen > custom location 'Custom_AspenHouse': the FromMapFile field specifies a file 'assets/Maps/AspenHouse.tbin' which doesn't exist in the content pack.

Sounds like there are files missing? but these files are present in my folder, so I'm wondering if something happened when you first downloaded her that caused some files to go missing?

but b/c these files are missing, I think her schedule is then getting messed up

(I would basically recommend re-downloading if you haven't tried that already)

[tough drum]

awesome, thanks so much! I'll try reinstalling her, I've had a similar issue when installing SVE but then it was more obvious of an issue. any suggestions on how to best proof-check for other conflicts that will trigger later in game?

[dapper gazelle]

hmm, do you install manually or are you using a mod manager?

[tough drum]

manual

[dapper gazelle]

hmm. not sure then! I know sometimes there are issues with Vortex where files go missing, but obviously not the case here

[tough drum]

you've been a great deal helpful already, I was about to give up on this save

[split storm]

so i updated smapi and now stardew wont run at all

[jovial trench]

Hi there! My brother is playing a save on my computer and he made it to the desert; he's trying to get a galaxy sword with a prismatic shard, but when he stands between the pillars with it nothing happens. The mods I have that may be affecting this are MARGO and Stardew Valley Expanded, can anyone help?

[dusty spruce]

MARGO article:
To obtain your first Galaxy weapon, as in vanilla you must first unlock the desert, acquire a Prismatic Shard and offer it to the Three Sand Sisters. Unlike vanilla, however, the weapon will not materialize out of thin air, but will be shaped out of a configurable amount of Iridium Bars (10 by default), which must be in your inventory. This will prevent a lucky Prismatic Shard drop from the Mines or a Fishing Chest from instantly rewarding one of the strongest weapons in the game before the player has even set foot in the Skull Caverns. Now, some venturing into the Skull Caverns is required.

[jovial trench]

Thank you!! That makes a lot of sense!

[dusty spruce]

also
The Tempered Galaxy weapons added by SVE do not fit the theme of this feature. If using SVE it is recommended to manually remove the Tempered Galaxy weapons from the custom Valdosta shops (navigate to the shops.json file inside the [STF] folder). Or you can just pretend they don't exist.

Hi I’m knew to moding stardew valley on Mac can someone help me?

[jovial trench]

Okay! I'd like to do this, but the file is a little confusing since I don't know exactly which parts to delete. Could you give me an example of where the blurbs I'm supposed to delete start and end?

[dusty spruce]

"Or you can just pretend they don't exist."

i don't know personally, it's the first time i'm seeing this article too

and i don't play SVE anyway

Hello, I've downloaded smapi and some mods and now my game is crashing from time to time. I've already deleted all my mods and smapi but my game still crashes. :( Can anyone help me out please?

[mild talon]

good evening! i'm using the Deluxe Preservation mod and I noticed it blocks me from putting salmon roe in the preserves jar (just regular, i think). Lookup Anything also shows something called "Aged Roe Roe"

can anyone help me understand the problem please?

        "ProducerName": "Deluxe Preserves Jar",
        "InputIdentifier": "812", //roe
        "InputStack": 1,
        "MinutesUntilReady": 2000,

                "MinutesUntilReady": 3000,
            }
        ]
    },```

(i don't think it's w/ the PFM for regular preserve jars.. but i'm gonna check rn)

meanwhile.. does that look OK or like the cause ?

[fresh fable]

no, never used one

[fresh fable]

hmm i'll have to look, i only have this one save :(

[mild talon]

this is Quality Artisan Products for regular preserves jars. looks the same except for the time and the stuff on bottom. ...I am confused : /

[fresh fable]

ok i've tried and it doesn't happen on another save

[gaunt gust]

Your inventory seems corrupted

Did you previously have mods you uninstalled

[mild talon]

*Ohhh.. is it because theyre both trying to do the same thing ??
...but Where does "Aged Roe Roe" come from? *

[fresh fable]

ohh yes that makes sense
yes i've installed the bigger backpack mod and then uninstalled it

and i still have the extra row in my inventory even tho i've uninstalled it but idk how to erase it

[robust bison]

you can use commands or cjb cheats to set the size

[fresh fable]

oki doki thank you <3

[lunar mesa]

a few months ago to save storage i had put the whole stardew valley folder on a flashdrive and moved it off my pc, fast forward to recently i want to play sdv so i take the flashdrive and i move the folder back where it was

Chic Cute Kitchen because it's not a SMAPI mod (see https://smapi.io/xnb for info).

[lunar mesa]

its worked for years i thinks its being overwritten by something else

[raven yoke]

Chic Cute Kitchen because it's not a SMAPI mod (see https://smapi.io/xnb for info).

@lunar mesa You are also missing some mods which is causing errors with some installed.

[lunar mesa]

but do u know which one is specifically messing with the kitchen mod

[dapper gazelle]

there's a CP version of Chic Cute Kitchen. perhaps you accidentally downloaded the xnb version instead

[raven yoke]

@lunar mesa Nothing that I see is messing with that mod, it simply is not being used because it is outdated. Try the CP version, under Files, and see if that works

[lunar mesa]

really?? hold on let me try and find it

nah i dont see a cp version

[raven yoke]

It's the second download option for that mod under files.

[lunar mesa]

oh i see it now ty

ty it works! but i realised why it wasnt working in the first place my game had reset all the content files

[halcyon igloo]

steam redownloads its files when it detects an error that’s what validating your files means

[raven yoke]

One reason I no longer use steam to play. The biggest reason was the load time for me.

[lunar mesa]

..then how are u playing it

[lunar mesa]

thing is i couldnt verify it, it didnt have the gear option for me...so i just deleted the xnb file and unpacked it again

[halcyon igloo]

i need hours to go brr

wdym unpacked it that doesn’t fix your files tho

[raven yoke]

I play the regular game that I got from GOG. No need to use their service either to play it. Only downside is that if you corrupt a save or something similar, you lose you whole game unles you do back ups of yourself.

[halcyon igloo]

does steam really tank it that bad lol

when i launch with stardrop the steam stuff is like 5 lines out of the entire load process

[raven yoke]

For me, on linux, the game will never load using Steam.

[halcyon igloo]

ah you’re on linux

linux vroom

[raven yoke]

Use too work just fine until the lastest update

[halcyon igloo]

the smapi update? or

[raven yoke]

Yes, sorry smapi update.

Actually stopped loading for me after the version 3.17.2

[halcyon igloo]

hm. you might want to think about posting about your issues with the smapi update on linux in #making-mods-general and tag pathos sometime

[raven yoke]

I did months ago but got no answer, in fact everyone went radio silence when I asked, so I just got the gog version

[halcyon igloo]

or like describe it here and tag pathos guess

people online at the time probably didn’t know the answer (i certainly have no good input)

[raven yoke]

Most likely. Does not matter anymore, at least to me.

[lunar mesa]

yeah i didnt expect it to work either! but i did

[unborn aspen]

hey sorry if my english is bad, can someone help me out? i have this mod related bug that i cant figure out how to fix

Hello everyone. I have a problem with my modded Stardew Valley. For some reason, my crab pots never catch anything. They are completely useless

[topaz matrix]

Have u put bait in them

[pseudo bobcat]

oh

thank you, I will try that

[topaz matrix]

Let me know if it worked

[pseudo bobcat]

will do 🙂

[unborn aspen]

i just tried that but it didnt work either

[unborn aspen]

i got two but the one thats already walking is jasper

[gaunt gust]

yuppp

[topaz matrix]

Do u have any mods that edit the way the children

[gaunt gust]

kiddo escaped

[unborn aspen]

i dont think so, not that i know

[gaunt gust]

it happens sometimes

the mod I linked above will warp the kiddo back home

[unborn aspen]

i have the expanded but i dont think it changes the children, does it?

[unborn aspen]

ok, i will try that!

IT WORKED!! THANK YOUUUU

but lemme ask, why the hell does this happen?? the child just decides to run away??? i had never seen it before

[gaunt gust]

Usually it's because your child shares a name with an NPC

something about that gets the warp code confused and the child is warped outside the farmhouse

[unborn aspen]

oh... that makes sense, my child that i had named olivia before just disappeared

well, thanks for the help!

[gaunt gust]

np!

[calm heron]

um... my mini fridges are disappearing?
i know they're still there because love of cooking is pulling ingredients

!androidsmapi

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

if you're not responding to someone you can try bot commands in #governors-mansion

[fleet cobalt]

it says stardew isnt running with mods and i cant get achivements

[halcyon igloo]

hmm you're on a mac?

did you start through steam?

[fleet cobalt]

yes

no but it wont load the mods if i do for some reason

[halcyon igloo]

weird i don't think mac needs to set launch options

i'm not super sure since i don't play on mac

the game is playing okay though?

[fleet cobalt]

yes

i just cant get achievements

when using running mods*

[shy orbit]

i'd say try first reinstalling smapi and make sure that the path it finds/you give it is the one that steam is using

[fleet cobalt]

ill try that

re-installing magically worked, i thought i did that

[shy orbit]

on macs steam can undo the smapi install since the smapi installer replaces the native launcher with a modified version, so that might be what happened

[pine halo]

is there a mod that could change '???' in achievement to what the name of the item is?

[halcyon igloo]

in what achievement?

[pine halo]

the achievement for shipping item. i dont know which items im missing

[halcyon igloo]

download lookup anything

[pine halo]

thank youuuuu

[lunar mesa]

can someone help me figure out how to use these retextures?

and how to add these to my fashion sense? bc i dont want to replace any hairstyles

Make sure to follow the instructions, and your items will be ready to work with Fashion Sense.

[halcyon igloo]

you do content patcher with item retextures

[pine halo]

do you have downtown zuzu mod?

[halcyon igloo]

i do not have downtown zuzu

[lunar mesa]

tysm!

[lunar mesa]

can u link me a page that shows the coding format for it

[halcyon igloo]

didn't you do content patcher already for a bunch of other things

https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/develop/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/tokens.md content patcher

[lunar mesa]

no

[high shuttle]

Helloo, can somebody help me write commands on the SMAPI console?

Idk how to and it tells me its wrong every time

[shy orbit]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Console_commands goes over the basics including what is required for them to work (or just copy-paste the command you're trying to use here)

[high shuttle]

Thanks ^-^

[halcyon igloo]

(No output to console is also a normal response if the command isn't literally printing something back at you, so maybe things are happening that you can't see depending on what command you're trying to use)

[high shuttle]

Is there anything i have to put before a command? I have the Family Planning mod, and im trying to type 'get_max_children' but it doesnt really work.

It says the command should be usable

When i typed help

[halcyon igloo]

does it specify that you need anything after it?

i'm looking at the mod page and it's saying that get_max_children tells you what the value is set to. is it not printing anything?

[high shuttle]

No, it doesnt say print anything

[halcyon igloo]

can you send a screenshot of what the error might say

[lunar mesa]

do hairstyles have to be a certain type of height and width?

[halcyon igloo]

i believe so?

are you not using the sprite cutter lol

[lunar mesa]

its hard as shit

[high shuttle]

Okk i finally found out how to take a screenshot, do i just send the screenshot here?

[halcyon igloo]

yes

[halcyon igloo]

interesting. are you loaded into a save right now?

[pine halo]

is penny character retexture compatible with seasonal outfit?

[halcyon igloo]

probably not since they will both be overwriting the same portraits

seasonal outfits don't layer clothes onto an existing portrait, they change the portrait entirely, so they are not compatible with other portrait mods

[high shuttle]

Im just on the main page right now, but i tried it after loading a save too and the same thing happened

[halcyon igloo]

are you on the unofficial update?

[high shuttle]

yes

the mod was broken

[pine halo]

too bad😥

[high shuttle]

I downloaded it from unofficial mod updates tho

[halcyon igloo]

it might just not have that working command in the unofficial update? idk i don't use the mod sorry

[high shuttle]

Thats really sad, because i was hoping to expand my family with this mod:((

Do you know any other family expantion mods tho?

[halcyon igloo]

is the set command not working either?

[high shuttle]

set command?

I dont really know too much about commands im sorry

[halcyon igloo]

you need to set the max number of children you want

i guess that's why it's not giving you back anything?

[high shuttle]

The error is for another mod i have that is not working btw

[halcyon igloo]

set_max_children 5 without the brackets

what's wrong with Little NPCs?

[pine halo]

do you know a mod that consumes energy while walking? or any mod to consume more energy?

[halcyon igloo]

uhhh idk about energy but there are hunger/thirst mods?

[high shuttle]

Idk, it says that "the content file was not found"

[halcyon igloo]

or hunger mods at least

[halcyon igloo]

well did the set command work at least

[high shuttle]

Well...

[halcyon igloo]

welp maybe you'll just have to find out how many children you can have

[pine halo]

woaaaah. you're the best!

[halcyon igloo]

i don't use them but i think there's one where it's like you get less benefits from a food the more often youe at it lol

to force you to eat other things?

[pine halo]

i didn't know such mods exist. I've been trying to find a way to use my food efficiently

[pine halo]

i will try to find it. thank youuu

[high shuttle]

I fixed the LittleNPCs mod now, and i think it works!

[halcyon igloo]

littleNPC is a framework for another mod and it’s fairly new so ideally thinks should either be working or working soon lol

[gloomy narwhal]

I changed the XNBs for a bunch of terrain features and map items but none of them seem to be applying T_T i just checked and idt i have any mods that interfere with it. For reference i'm using these naver reteks

[shy orbit]

if you replaced the native xnb files and they don't show in the game, it's either that some other mod is overwriting them or that the files are the native versions again. there isn't really anywhere for the game to pull the native textures if they don't exist

!log if any mod is targeting the the same assets, you can find it by searching for the asset name in the log after enabling trace on the log site (and after viewing the objects that should be changed in game)

[native dragon]

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

[shy orbit]

or is it not an xnb replacement?

[gloomy narwhal]

it is! ill check that out, thanks!

[halcyon igloo]

lol rush orders is NOT playing nice with me today

[shy orbit]

!xnb generally it would be better to make a content patcher version of it, that way it's possible to make it take precedence over another mod at least

[native dragon]

@gloomy narwhal 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).

[gloomy narwhal]

is it difficult to make them into cp versions?

[halcyon igloo]

i do it literally all the time

i just have shorcuts and templates lol

[shy orbit]

no, at least if you're fine with them working the same way as the xnb replacements (i.e. replacing the whole file)

[fast belfry]

im new to mods, any safe sites recommended? Is the website ‘stardewvalleymods’ safe?

[halcyon igloo]

you won't be able to mix mods as easily if they're not content patcher

i have no idea what website stardewvalleymods is lol

nexusmods is where most mods are hosted

and moddrop

[shy orbit]

yep. that stardewvalleymods site is probably one of those sites that pull mods from other sites without permissions

[fast belfry]

ohh ok 👍 thx

[light fox]

hey guys, daisynikos earthy recolor doesnt work on the farm part of the map when using grandpas farm. are there any mods that fix this? thanks :)

[gloomy narwhal]

I tried patching, but it didnt work, is there something im missing?

[long brook]

You missed comma , after a } bracket under "FromFile"

You can throw that json to smapi.io/json and it will tell you what's wrong with your code

[halcyon igloo]

you need commas between all of your changes but yeah the website will tell you

[lunar mesa]

@halcyon igloo can you help me..ive been trying every single option of columns and rows with this cutting thing but its just not getting them all

[halcyon igloo]

for hairs?

[lunar mesa]

mhmm

[halcyon igloo]

did you do the suggestion on the converter page?

[lunar mesa]

hold on brb

[halcyon igloo]

im literally about to go to bed LOL

[lunar mesa]

you mean the stardew wiki? if so yes

sorry go ahead

i did not mean to interrupt

[halcyon igloo]

no on the github for the converter

[lunar mesa]

oh okay ill try this

[light fox]

anyone know if theres a fix for this?

[halcyon igloo]

i don't play with SVE so i don't know if there's a distributed color fix or anything for that farm

[gloomy narwhal]

thank you!

[halcyon igloo]

unless it's the waterfall

[light fox]

ah no, for me theres a square on the left side of the map that uses the original stardew valley colors. i saw a mod on nexus that fixed it, but its been hidden and i cant download it

[halcyon igloo]

like a single square? sucks lol you can try and recolor it yourself maybe

@lunar mesa did it work lol

[lunar mesa]

they came out like this

[halcyon igloo]

yes

there was empty space in the PNG so some of those are empty bc there was nothing there

[lunar mesa]

tysm!

[halcyon igloo]

also i just assume everything is colorable hair idgaf at this point lol they make everything so light-colored all the time

[lunar mesa]

LMAOOO

[gloomy narwhal]

It says it shouldnt have the ko-KR, should i remove it? I checked the sdv files and theres a file named that in maps as well.

[lunar mesa]

this part is confusing me and it doesnt really make sense bc when i opened up another fs mod there was no input folder

[halcyon igloo]

i just rename everything to not have the regionalization

also your target should not have an extension

so it should just be Maps/fall_outdoorsTileSheet

and then assets/fall_outdoorsTileSheet.png

[lunar mesa]

sorry forgot to show lmao

[halcyon igloo]

did you download node.js

[lunar mesa]

why do i have to tho theres no input folders in the other mods

[halcyon igloo]

it's a converter

ur making the mod

[light fox]

heres what the map looks like for me

[lunar mesa]

converter to what?

[halcyon igloo]

to fashion sense

from a PNG

[lunar mesa]

i thought we unpacked mods FOR the pngs

[halcyon igloo]

you unpack the XNB assets for the pngs so we can make them non-XNB mods

so now that you have the PNGs you're going to tell the little robot beep boop make this a fashion sense mod

you can't just paste raw PNGs and expect fashion sense to udnerstand

[lunar mesa]

yeah then youll add them in the assets folder or something ive never had to convert a png, what file type will it convert to

[halcyon igloo]

fashion sense is a different mod that has a different set of rules and formatting that tbh i don't fully understand

i just go boop boop into the program

just follow the instructions lol

[lunar mesa]

alright

[halcyon igloo]

it's not packing/unpacking the file, it's adding a bunch of info and stuff to make it an actual mod and not just a raw png

back to the original question did you download node.js

[lunar mesa]

but manifests and content json already do that

and yes i did download it

[halcyon igloo]

this is not a content patcher mod

fashion sense != content patcher

[lunar mesa]

OHH ok

im starting to see now

[halcyon igloo]

fashion sense is an entirely different thing

i mean you COULD use content patcher and i think there's a method to make non-replacing hairs but also why would you do that

[lunar mesa]

i wouldnt

[halcyon igloo]

exactly

[lunar mesa]

what code do they want me to pull down

[halcyon igloo]

uhh in this case i think just the source code?

from the big green button

[lunar mesa]

yeah idk how to get it, i tried generating the link but it just sent me to the same website

[halcyon igloo]

?

just download the zip

[lunar mesa]

do i need to download npm

[halcyon igloo]

did you add a manifest.json

[halcyon igloo]

i think that's just the node command so no?

[gloomy narwhal]

yes, i copy pasted from the site

[halcyon igloo]

and you filled in the info with your own stuff?

[gloomy narwhal]

yes mam

[halcyon igloo]

and it's in the same folder as your content.json and your assets/ folder?

[gloomy narwhal]

yes maam T_T

[halcyon igloo]

and your content patcher is updated?

[gloomy narwhal]

oh crap

[gloomy narwhal]

no maam...

[halcyon igloo]

so no you don't need to install "npm" just type npm install inside of the folder

is what i meant

just continue lol

until it stops working again

[lunar mesa]

alr

[dire fractal]

I'm sorry to disturb but, i've been having problems with SMAPI, everytime i start stardew valley by smapi the game starts and whitin like, 5 seconds it closes, i already solved all the mods that had some kind of problem, but still it does the same thing, it only happens when i open the stardew valley with smapi, doesn't matter if it is by the steam launch options or opening it on the local files, either way it does the same thing, does someone knows something that would help me?

[lunar mesa]

what is the project directory..?

[halcyon igloo]

the folder

with the code in it

[halcyon igloo]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[lunar mesa]

i have no idea which file in the folder is the code

[halcyon igloo]

it's the folder you downloaded?

did you unzip it lol

[lunar mesa]

yes

[halcyon igloo]

it's just

that folder lol

[halcyon igloo]

yes

[lunar mesa]

which one do i click

[halcyon igloo]

you don't

you need to open a terminal

[lunar mesa]

i have it open

[halcyon igloo]

show me

[halcyon igloo]

ok so you're not running like an exe or anything

[gloomy narwhal]

THANK U SO MUCH

[lunar mesa]

are u asking or telling me not to run it

[halcyon igloo]

we're doing command line stuff now which just means typing into your terminal and then hitting enter to send the command

exit out of that window and open a terminal in the folder

are you on windows 11

[lunar mesa]

ok let me see

[halcyon igloo]

if you're on windows 11...?

if you right click in the folder it should give you an option to open a terminal in that window

[lunar mesa]

ok i did

[halcyon igloo]

does the bit after PS look like the path of the folder

[halcyon igloo]

cool

i think it's fine lol

[lunar mesa]

i hope so i have no idea what this shit means

[halcyon igloo]

me neither tbh but mine still works so

then just do step 3 from the guide

[lunar mesa]

but again just to be clear

[halcyon igloo]

for hair

[lunar mesa]

the project directory is the entire folder yes?

[halcyon igloo]

yes

[lunar mesa]

ty

[halcyon igloo]

so make a folder called "input" inside of that

and then also an output ig lol

[halcyon igloo]

hmm i'm not seeing anything glaring from the log

do you ever notice any like red or anything in your SMAPI console before it closes?

[lunar mesa]

when i put all the hair files in input do i type run or npm start next?

[dire fractal]

No, there was before, but i already solved it removing non working mods

[halcyon igloo]

idk just follow the instructions that's what i do lol

[lunar mesa]

im asking bc i dont understand the instructions

ill just copy the npm start

[halcyon igloo]

run the part in the code block

[dire fractal]

i tried to do as it said, it lasted a little bit more, but still the game crashed

[halcyon igloo]

have you gotten it to work with just the 3 main smapi mods yet

[halcyon igloo]

when we use code blocks like this it's to show that everything in the block should be copied and pasted

[dire fractal]

i'll try it

it still crashed :(

[halcyon igloo]

with just errorhandler, savebackup, and consolecommands?

[dire fractal]

oh wait, i gess there was one certain that i forgot to remove, i'll try again

same thing sadly

[halcyon igloo]

hmmm

[halcyon igloo]

try reinstalling smapi? i'm not sure

[halcyon igloo]

how are you getting raw markdown from the github page lol. don't copy the ` signs

[lunar mesa]

oh sorry i didnt know

[halcyon igloo]

also don't forget to change the name of the author

[dire fractal]

i think i already did that several times i'll see what i can do

[lunar mesa]

why would i change the name?

[halcyon igloo]

and take out the optional descriptor if you don't want to use one

[gloomy crane]

does stardew run fine if you were to run it without smapi? like just the game, no modding

[dire fractal]

yep

[halcyon igloo]

to the name of the author??

--author-name=NAMEOFAUTHOR

[lunar mesa]

yeah? I dont remember the naver link and its not like im posting it

[halcyon igloo]

unless their name is literally NAMEOFAUTHOR lol

[gloomy crane]

huh then i guess reinstalling smapi is all that i can think of

[halcyon igloo]

eh i usually just put like "naver" in that case bc it makes it easier to search but

[lunar mesa]

ok ty

[dire fractal]

i'll try it again

[halcyon igloo]

are you launching from steam?

[dire fractal]

i am, but i also tried launching directly by the game files

i can try again

[halcyon igloo]

yeah maybe launch SMAPI directly?

[lunar mesa]

this looks correct but nothing in output still

maybe i have to restart the terminal

[halcyon igloo]

no need to do like

keep the stuff before the equals sign the same

--authorName=NAVER or --authorName=naver

[lunar mesa]

OHH ok

[halcyon igloo]

you're telling it literally "this is the author's name" it doesn't know what naver is lol

[dire fractal]

sadly it still crashed,

[halcyon igloo]

is it just closing the window or is it like glitching out?

[lunar mesa]

ugh still nothing

[gaunt gust]

!troubleshoot

[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?

[halcyon igloo]

npm start -- -- --conversionType=hair --isColorable --authorName=naver pls

[lunar mesa]

ty!

[dire fractal]

only closing the window, clean, with no bugs, i think that's the odd part, everything looks fine except when i open the game

[dire fractal]

k

i'll try

[halcyon igloo]

did it go

[lunar mesa]

my output? yes

[halcyon igloo]

cool i'm outtie lol

[dire fractal]

it still crashing i tried everything in the site

[gaunt gust]

Do you get a different message when it's run through the command line?

[dire fractal]

not actually, it looks all normal and suddenly crash

[gaunt gust]

Interesting

Unfortunately the next step involves trawling through the windows error logs

Which I have been meaning to make a guide for for a while now

Try reinstall SVE. You're missing some file inside SVE folder

[wintry trout]

ok

this comes up

i had this error when first installing sde a few months back, but it never the particular set of errors it is doing now

[long brook]

Can you show your SVE folder name? I'm guessing it contain some numbers

Wait where do you get sdv from?

[wintry trout]

-Stardew Valley Expanded--3753-1-14-18-1671229716.zip

nexus

[long brook]

Not sve, sdv the game

[dusty spruce]

Windows says "Path too long" - you've put your Steam/game/mod in too many folders, with too long names

the "default" path of C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods\ is already 66 characters long, and i believe the limit is either 240 or 255?

[wintry trout]

how will it affect the game?

[dusty spruce]

well, as you can see, you can't copy the file, because the path is too long

so the way it will affect the game will be "the mod won't work"

[gaunt gust]

(iirc you can set something in registry to make the max path length something sane, like >60k, and smapi will respect that if you do)

(but frick if I know how to)

[wintry trout]

but the mod is loading in for me

weird

[gaunt gust]

(one of those "I did it once and forgot how to do it")

the mod is loading in missing a bunch of files which is causing it to fail

do you want to get stuck in angry red errors of "this location cannot be found?"

[dusty spruce]

it may or may not fail loading completely

[wintry trout]

hm

[dusty spruce]

might work until that file is actually referenced

[long brook]

Not weird, smapi detect the manifest. But the files smapi try to find is deeper inside SVE folder so the path too long might trigger

[dusty spruce]

and then do whatever

[wintry trout]

what can i even do to ensure it doesnt crash the game
i guess i can try avoid affected parts entirely

[dusty spruce]

change the path

[wintry trout]

can't on windows 11
it's an ongoing issue

i disabled path lenght limiter from registry editor, still gives the error

[dusty spruce]

but you do control the names of the subfolders in the Mods folder

[wintry trout]

hm
ok ill do that

thanks

[dusty spruce]

...or apparently the path you have your game at. which i just looked at.

[wintry trout]

please elaborate

so i just change where the game is stored to a shorter name?

[wintry trout]

how does one change paths?

[flat spire]

hey guys does anyone know why my npc map locations minimap is doing this?

[neat plaza]

doing what?

[flat spire]

the icons of the villagers are showing outside of the border

[gaunt gust]

It does that.

Why exactly I haven't a clue, haven't gone poking into the code

But it does that

[left junco]

what do i do if smapi client tells me everything launches fine, but the game doesnt have the cog where i can look at my mods?

[violet kelp]

cog is generic mod config menu thing

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5098

[flat spire]

what mods are able to go into subfolders?

i want to organize my mods more if anyone can help

[violet kelp]

i wouldn't put anything into sub folders you will just making the path longer

[flat spire]

oh oke i thought certain mods were like that

[neat plaza]

why is your sve install still using tmxl?

[halcyon igloo]

unless your folder names are insane you can put things in sub-folders lol

[mild talon]

Is there a simple way to change the name of "user" in Windows?
It won't let me rename the folder

[tranquil wren]

stardew valley expanded map wont show up

plz @ me

[wintry trout]

did that, it's fixed
thanks

[static dagger]

Oh no, so it won’t go away? Should I re install it and try to complete it?

[violet kelp]

honestly idk, it might go off when the time for it ends it might go off when you remove the framework for it, i have no idea i always thought error handler handled this stuff. does your log gives any red-text?

[tranquil wren]

mail wont work, idk if its a specific mod making it so

it wont open

just closes it out immediately without letting me see

[violet kelp]

you have probably have a mod that is outdated

i am guessing special order mail?

is the launch options the same for everyone if they have a C drive

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

would it just be this?

[long brook]

depends on where you put your steam game folder. mine is in D drive

[bronze light]

yes but assuming they installed it on the C drive thats the launch option right

[long brook]

if the last step of smapi installer shows that location, yes

[tranquil wren]

@violet kelp u there?

sorry

[native grail]

Is there a new Child to NPC mod?

[knotty badge]

do i like drag that SAMpi latest in that box?

smapi writes launch option text when you install it

yes

i am here i was checking your log

[tranquil wren]

sorry lol

[violet kelp]

did you try to open in vanilla to see which mail was not showing up

[tranquil wren]

its every letter

[knotty badge]

then save % parse log?

[tranquil wren]

not just 1

[long brook]

yes

[knotty badge]

ow it does say PyTK 1.23.* or earlier isn't compatible with newer SMAPI performance optimizations. This may increase loading times or in-game lag.
but isnt Pytk needed for some mods

hmm idk then i don't see any particular error in the game. Maybe try to fix artisan valley? or you can try to half-half mods to see which specific one is causing it

[long brook]

try install this https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1536

[violet kelp]

try updating everything first and load artisan valley correctly?

it could be More Gifts From Friends Compilation as smapi says the folder is empty?

or more quests

try downloading manually if you can, your mod manager might be messing up since i see many empty folder and multiple folder errors

[violet kelp]

and this since I didn't notice you were missing MFM

[tranquil wren]

trying rn

[violet kelp]

i think most people use farmers children

and littleNPCs

[tranquil wren]

still doesnt work

closes it immediately and says 'you have no mail'

[violet kelp]

have you updated your mods and downloaded mail framework?

[tranquil wren]

yes

[violet kelp]

and when you open the game vanilla (no mods) you can see the letters?

[tranquil wren]

without mods it keeps going back tot eh menu screen when i try to load my save

plz help ;-;

[violet kelp]

okay try renaming your mods file to something else, creating new mods file and only keep console comands and error handler, and opening the game that way

also keep pytk and spacecore

[tranquil wren]

ok

[violet kelp]

also do **not **save (sleep the day) when you do this just incase

[tranquil wren]

uhh

photos loading

[violet kelp]

okay that's really weird

[tranquil wren]

yeah

its not responing

responding*

i need to quit the game lol

lemme just try again with mods?

i can resend u my log

[violet kelp]

might be TMXL Map Toolkit thing but i didn't saw any farm mod on your list so it shouldn't do that

[lament prairie]

Render issues maybe?

[violet kelp]

with no mods but the essentials? idk

well, it opened actually but its not showing me it

opened then closed automatically

plz @ me

[violet kelp]

i think this happened bc you removed tmxl and you had Seasonal Garden Farmhouse V2 which i overlooked sorry

[thorny dawn]

hello, i'm new to modding stardew and am having trouble getting custom furniture and custom music to work. anyone online familiar with those mods?

[neat plaza]

use DGA and SAAT

[tranquil wren]

i removed tmxl?

how do i get it back

my trash is empty

[neat plaza]

you.. download it?

[tranquil wren]

its a mod thingy? ok

didnt know

[neat plaza]

yeah.. i mean you downloaded it?

[tranquil wren]

i forgot

i have a lot of mods

[thorny dawn]

i have both of those mods. i've downloaded a custom furniture mod and a custom music mod, i just don't know how to apply them.

[violet kelp]

honestly idk might be a mod conflict, try removing all content patcher mods and open the game to see if it is an out dated mod, if it is not that it might be the mobile phone or email mod since those uses the mail? but again just try removing some mods a couple at a time (except error handler console comands pytk spacecore and tmxl)

[neat plaza]

they're frameworks

[tranquil wren]

ok

ty

[violet kelp]

dont completely delete the mods you remove though jsut move them in a temporary folder

[violet kelp]

they did have tmxl but when i sugessted to remove all mods but core ones i did not see they had tmxl as well therefore that weird thing with farmhouse happened

[violet kelp]

did you download the dependencies?

[thorny dawn]

okay, yes, framework mods i get it. but i still have two .RAR files that aren't applying in the game. do i need to replace a file in one of my mod folders with them? or go into one of the json files and edit code?

[violet kelp]

uh why are they in rar?

[thorny dawn]

if you mean the required mods, then yes. if not i have no clue what you mean

[violet kelp]

unpack them

[dusty spruce]

(it doesn't help that people release mods as RAR files)

[thorny dawn]

yeah when i downloaded them they just were RAR

[violet kelp]

lol

rar is like zip
