did i do it right?

[neat plaza]

[glacial bane]

oh ok

i have the required mods in there tho..

do i haveto put the required mods in the ridgeside folder which r in the mods folder

im so confusd

@neat plaza

[solar lake]

if u have 15-20 bucks to blow aesprite is worth it

if not i think libresprite is a free alternative

[neat plaza]

you can also just compile aseprite

[neat plaza]

didn't need to ping me

[glacial bane]

sorry

[mild talon]

Shuppet, your log shows you have 1 mod (not counting the 3 smapi mods)
You're missing all the dependencies for RSv. Those are framework mods and they go in the main Mods folder

[glacial bane]

i have no idea what rsv or frameowkr mods r

[mild talon]

Ok. The mods listed in your log for "skipped mods"

[glacial bane]

yes

oh rsv is ridgeside

[gaunt gust]

Shortcuts are indeed not symlinks lol

Shuppet, do you have anyone in your life good with computers you trust

[glacial bane]

nop

[gaunt gust]

Because I think this is on a level where you need someone in person to explain things

[glacial bane]

sigh

i dont understand how i messed up tho

i did everything as it said

[neat plaza]

what does your mod folder look like? (send a screenshot)

[neat plaza]

you don't make shortcuts..

[glacial bane]

IDK WHAT THAT IS

cries

[mild talon]

I think they're still zipped

[glacial bane]

whats that

[mild talon]

these mods.. are "shortcuts"

[gaunt gust]

They're not zipped, they're shortcuts

[glacial bane]

oh

[gaunt gust]

and unfortunately because Windows has about three different concepts of anything, you can't use shortcuts

[mild talon]

Oh.. you need to longcut them /jk

[glacial bane]

so

[gaunt gust]

you can use symlinks or hardlinks, but now we get into "please ask your school's computing teacher the difference between a shortcut, a symlink, and a hardlink"

[glacial bane]

how do i extract them quickly..

[glacial bane]

what does any of this mean

[mild talon]

Maybe just delete them and re-download?
I don't know how they became shortcuts in the first place (is that something a user would do?)

[glacial bane]

does anyone have a free

extracter

i can use or smth

[neat plaza]

windows

[glacial bane]

what

[neat plaza]

you don't need a separate one

windows has one

[glacial bane]

where

is it free

[neat plaza]

you have windows..

http://i.pil.ninja/image/bcd08.gif

[glacial bane]

when i right ckick it

i get these

[neat plaza]

you're still clicking the shortcut

you unzip the original file

[glacial bane]

OHHH

[cobalt rapids]

Hello, I see there's a conversation happening rn, but when someone has a moment I need a bit of help.
I downloaded SMAPI through Vortex, installed and enabled it, but I can't get the text I'm supposed to copy for the Steam Launch Options. I think I need to open SMAPI then copy something from the launcher? But I can't even launch SMAPI on it's own, it flashes at the bottom of my screen as a window for a moment then crashes and I'm going to scream at this point lol

Am I missing something? I'm really not sure what I'm doing wrong ^^;

[glacial bane]

wat i clck

[neat plaza]

that's not a zip

[neat plaza]

!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.

[glacial bane]

so how do i get to a zip

wait..

i think i found them

[neat plaza]

yeah those ones

[glacial bane]

ok so

what do i do wiht those folders

[neat plaza]

unzip those to your mod folder (not hte installer)

[neat plaza]

you put them in your mods folder..?

[glacial bane]

i mnean

[glacial bane]

these folders

[hoary bane]

[glacial bane]

[hoary bane]

Delete these "Shortcuts"

[glacial bane]

[hoary bane]

Yes.

[glacial bane]

ty guys sm

[upper wharf]

hey team, so ive been trying to play some co-op with my gf and it worked fine all afternoon, me running default steam client with no mods and her running smapi with a few mods, experience bars and some mod that allows her to customize her character on the fly.

As i stated before it worked fine all afternoon and we played the first few weeks in game together without issue, but after we had a dinner break, my game started randomly crashing during loading screen and after a bit of trouble shooting i decided to try and download smapi and the same mod she has installed, while she tried scaling back her mods to just the experience bar. But then i just started crashing as soon as we were both on screen at the same time, most of the textures went crazy and the houses dissapeared and my game froze, with a smapi error.

I cant for the life of me figure out what is going wrong and we just want to have fun playing together, hope some of you are smarter than me and can help us play together again 🙂 thanks for your time

!fs

[native dragon]

Fashion Sense (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9969) is a framework which allows modders to create accessories, hairstyles, hats, shirts, pants and shoes that are larger than the default vanilla dimensions. It also includes special conditions for animation, allowing for dynamic movement (such as a hairstyle that animates differently while walking or running). Additionally, Fashion Sense supports the saving and loading of custom outfits.

For Mod Users: To use Fashion Sense, you will need to install the main mod as well as content packs for the clothing/accessories you want. Content packs can be found on the same page as the main mod (linked above) - expand the "Requirements" section and look through the "Mods requiring this file".

For Mod Authors: Instructions, tutorials, and tips for creating FS content packs are available on the wiki: https://github.com/Floogen/FashionSense/wiki

[gaunt gust]

switch to Fashion Sense, that one lets one person wear stuff and the other not

[upper wharf]

how do i do that

my gf says she has a mod called getglam from moddrop

[gaunt gust]

Yeah, that's the problem

you would either both need the same mods, or use Fashion Sense, which is a newer framework that works even if not every player has it

[wind falcon]

so deleting the getglam would just fix the issue?

[gaunt gust]

Yes. If she wants to be fashionable in game fashion sense works better

[tough drum]

would anybody be able to tell me which mod gives gunther a schedule and living area above the museum? I'm having conflicts and cant get behind the desk without noclip and my boy is trapped

[upper wharf]

would it work if i just downloaded all of her mods?

[gaunt gust]

Possibly but Get Glam is aging

worth a shot

[gaunt gust]

I'm gonna bet SVE

[tough drum]

see that was my first guess but something is causing an overwrite that reverts the changes and it is not being recorded in the log parser

[kindred axle]

somehting is influencing my farmer body model but i cant find anything that could be doing it

[halcyon igloo]

have you ever XNB modded your farmer lol

[kindred axle]

i cant even make a joke out of how much i refuse to use xnb mods

lol

also im on my new pc for a few weeks now so even if i had done so and forgotten, it wouldn't have survived a fresh install of stardew

[upper wharf]

i had her backup her getglam mod and remove it from her game and now its working thanks for the help friend

[kindred axle]

would it be possible to make a config for an existing mod that doesnt already have a config?

for my own purposes

[halcyon igloo]

if it’s CP yea

i do it literally all the time lol

[kindred axle]

it is

what do I do?

trying to reverse engineer it by looking at other mod files rn

[halcyon igloo]

there’s a section for doing player config on the CP wiki on github

[kindred axle]

o

aight omw

[halcyon igloo]

basically you just need to add the configschema section

and add When’s to everything

[kindred axle]

is this the right one? https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Modder_Guide/APIs/Config

[neat plaza]

that's C# config

[halcyon igloo]

lemme find it

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

[kindred axle]

yeah I thought so

first option when you google it tho

ayy it worked :D

how hard would it be to add the config to generic mod config?

[lament prairie]

CP configs are automatically added

C# configs require a bit more effort but it’s not that hard as far as C# goes

[kindred axle]

ah no i got it

thank

okay new problem

when I edit the mod config while game is active, it doesn't change until I reboot

content.json uses action: load, would action: edit change that?

[neat plaza]

probably can try patch reload?

[kindred axle]

what that

[mild talon]

You type patch reload <uniqueID> ..in the manifest you'll find the CP mod's unique ID. Copy that w the quotes

[kindred axle]

in the console?

[mild talon]

Yeah

[kindred axle]

ah

worked!

[lament prairie]

Generally CP updates things once a day

[rare falcon]

For anyone running SVE and NPC Locations - I’m having an issue, just started a fresh save but my minimap location is a bit off from where my character actually is

For example here: I’m still in my farm area (Immersive Farm 2 map) but on the minimap it shows I’m below at Marnie’s (sorry I’m on Steam Deck so can’t send a clean screenshot)

Does anyone know how to fix this?

[lament prairie]

So configs may take a day to take effect

Hey guys! Does someone have some experience with xnbcli packer please? It doesn't work for me 😦

[halcyon igloo]

how did you download xnbcli

[halcyon igloo]

i feel like you might have downloaded the source code and not the release version?

[grand lava]

Oh that's true I download the master zip :/ Didn't find the release ver.

[halcyon igloo]

it’s usually on the right hand side lemme check the page to make sure i’m thinking of the right thing lol

yeah you need to download the release version

[grand lava]

OH Thank you I found it 😄 sorry for the trouble

[mild talon]

Is that the one with the folders and ..bats (I think) called PACKED / UNPACKED

[grand lava]

But it still wouldn't pack the file

[mild talon]

(idk what bat is.. smapi has it on installer. Another file type thing? 😶)

[neat plaza]

windows version of .sh

[grand lava]

i need to convert PNG back to XNB file

[halcyon igloo]

why

!xnbzola

[native dragon]

An XNB mod replaces some of your game's .xnb files to change the game (unlike newer mods that go in your Mods folder). This is an older type of mod that's no longer recommended, and can cause a number of issues. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods for help using them (and a list of alternatives using Content Patcher), and https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).

[mild talon]

(I can add .sh to the list now)

[grand lava]

I want to convert Harvey's sprites back to XNB so game can read them ._.

[neat plaza]

why...

[mild talon]

Content Patcher 😃

[halcyon igloo]

have you heard of our friend ✨content patcher✨ yeah lol

[mild talon]

Good friend

[halcyon igloo]

i wish i were good enough at GUIs to make like a drop down menu content patcher builder lol

[neat plaza]

oo that'd be fun

[grand lava]

the wiki said that i should use xnbcli for packing @_@

[neat plaza]

the wiki said that, on the xnb modding page, that i'm fairly sure has a warning on it

[halcyon igloo]

wiki also has a thing about not using xnbs too i think lol

[neat plaza]

^^

[sudden cedar]

still having lag problems on my other file, could anyone give me some ideas to reduce this? or is it just removing mods?

[halcyon igloo]

what’s that like 437 mods? how much la tv are we talking lol

[halcyon igloo]

if you REALLY want to use xnb

[neat plaza]

really want to repack the files

[halcyon igloo]

which we rarely do

[grand lava]

OH, sorry I'm quite new to this ._.

[halcyon igloo]

where did you get the portraits from?

[grand lava]

i used stardew xnb hack to extract them

[sudden cedar]

periodic game hitching/freezing for a short time whenever it seems like the map needs to update

[halcyon igloo]

the vanilla portraits?

[neat plaza]

doesn't xnbcli require a json to repack, so ones extracted via stardewxnbhack woudn't work?

[grand lava]

yep!

[halcyon igloo]

why are we repacking vanilla portraits

[grand lava]

because they're in XNB format so the game can read them

they're now PNG after extraction and I think game wouldn't read them

[halcyon igloo]

but the vanilla game already has the vanilla portraits

are you trying to CHANGE the portraits?

[grand lava]

Y e a h

[halcyon igloo]

if so where did you get these PNGs lol

[neat plaza]

im guessing they extracted then changed

[grand lava]

I said I used stardew xnb hack file to extract them from the XNB files

[neat plaza]

then scrolled down and read the wiki page to find how to repack them, ignoring the text telling them not to

[mild talon]

So they look the same ?
No image edit /visual difference?

[mild talon]

That's the purpose of portrait mods I thought

[halcyon igloo]

did you EDIT the portraits?

[grand lava]

y e s

and now i want to pack it back

[halcyon igloo]

or you could make a content patcher mod instead which is safer

[grand lava]

oo

[halcyon igloo]

also this?

[mild talon]

You can reset your files and make your new portraits a CP pack, as holy said. More better!!

[grand lava]

How do I get the content patcher?

[neat plaza]

nexus

[mild talon]

Dl on Nexus.

[neat plaza]

(or github, or moddrop)

[mild talon]

What mods do you have already, if any?

[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.

[grand lava]

o h, i don't need to install nexus client do i

[neat plaza]

i doubt they do if they're xnb modding

[neat plaza]

no

[sudden cedar]

does anyone have any ideas for my issue btw?

[mild talon]

Mm.. update your mods.
Do you need WttDR?

ES discord has a beta version of ARV that fixes stuff - no more Custom Music, ... no tmxl? - it's an upgrade

[grand lava]

Oi now i have to learn how to use the patcher oof

is it complicated?

[mild talon]

It's easier than that other plan w xnb

[sudden cedar]

what is wttdr?

[mild talon]

Walk to Desert..

[sudden cedar]

gotcha

[halcyon igloo]

content patcher is not that bad imo especially for portraits

[sudden cedar]

i have the remade version

[neat plaza]

and easier to debug ^

[halcyon igloo]

portraits easy

portraits you can just take another portrait mod and slap your images in lol

[grand lava]

I thought I'd just feed the file to xnbcli and it'll convert it back to .xnb @_@

[mild talon]

Your log indicates not.. it has the CM for Arv

[mild talon]

When you get Content Patcher, click on the Requirements tab on its mod page on Nexus and look up some already published portrait mods... see how they do it. Very stable and fun

[sudden cedar]

hm, i'll fix that too, i haven't touched these mods in months so i guess some of them might be wrong

[grand lava]

I think I don't know what to do now

[mild talon]

Yes, that's the mod. I meant on the mod page to see portraits

[grand lava]

the installation guide says to put it into a mods folder

[mild talon]

You can find them under the Requirements tab.. "mods that require this mod (CP)"

[grand lava]

should I make one if i don't have any?

[mild talon]

Do you have SMAPI ?

[grand lava]

yeah

[mild talon]

Smapi creates your Mods folder. It goes there

[grand lava]

wait

where?

[dusty spruce]

*the installer creates the folder

[mild talon]

!gettingstarted ?

[native dragon]

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

[halcyon igloo]

honestly just find a portrait mod for the character you’re editing and replace the PNGs in their assets folder lol

[mild talon]

What'd I say lol ?

[halcyon igloo]

o. after you install SMAPI LOL

[dusty spruce]

"Smapi creates"

[grand lava]

I installed the SMAPI but it didn't really create the folder should i panic

[mild talon]

I don't understand the difference

[dusty spruce]

SMAPI vs its installer

[halcyon igloo]

did you run the installer or did you just download SMAPI

[mild talon]

Smapi ------> Mods - in the middle somewhere ?

[halcyon igloo]

did you double click on some executable file and have a window pop up

[grand lava]

yes i did! it openned the command prompt and then it said the installation was successful

[dusty spruce]

the difference is that the Mods folder is made during installing; if it was SMAPI that made the folder, then you'd also have to run it once before it appears

(fwiw SMAPI probably also makes the folder if it doesn't exist, but it would be empty then)

[grand lava]

it created this

[mild talon]

Oh.. guess I conflate installer w Smapi. Noted

[halcyon igloo]

there should also be a Mods folder that it created literally named Mods

[grand lava]

oh it also created mods folder! sweet

[halcyon igloo]

i believe it’s in the same location?

yep there you go

that was probably one of the less painful smapi installations i’ve had to walk through

[grand lava]

now i just put any mods inside?

[halcyon igloo]

yep

are you on windows using steam?

[grand lava]

yeah!

[halcyon igloo]

!launchoptions you will also need to set your launch options if you want to be able to launch SDV with smapi through steam instead of having to use a shortcut or sth

[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

[grand lava]

yes i think i already did that before

[halcyon igloo]

literally painless good job

yes you just put mods in the Mods folder lol

[grand lava]

i really wanted to make a repack so it wouldn't need any additional files

[polar vine]

howdy yall, just hopped in here cuz ive been trying to mod my stardew before i get back into it.
i got the most recent smapi and got all my mods but when i try and launch the game its good and dandy.
but after the intro cutscene my game just freezes and stops responding. any ideas would help

[neat plaza]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[grand lava]

but if this is an ordinary thing then it's fine! Thank you so much for help! ❤️ to everyone who took their time to help me :p

[neat plaza]

does vanilla work

[grand lava]

also i think you meant this?

[halcyon igloo]

yes but you’re missing some quotation marks and i think a %command somewhere

[neat plaza]

you need the double quotes and %command%

[kindred axle]

how easy is it to update outdated content patcher animation code to a version compatible with the newest one

[halcyon igloo]

ez pz

[lament prairie]

CP-A probably doesn’t work in languages that aren’t English btw

[kindred axle]

lemme check rq

to be specific its Crowley's Arcane Tools

[halcyon igloo]

o animations

[grand lava]

I gues like this ,_,

[neat plaza]

quotation marks

[mild talon]

Why is that? English only ?

[halcyon igloo]

and a space before the command part

[grand lava]

OHH

[neat plaza]

follow the instructions in the installer and copy it exactly

[kindred axle]

yeah its in english

[halcyon igloo]

a space, not a colon

[kindred axle]

so how easy would it be to convert it to newest version

[lament prairie]

SMAPI changed how it handles asset names and now you need asset name without localization or something

[kindred axle]

looks to be entirely in english

[mild talon]

Oh... like .fr or .es or something ?

[kindred axle]

none of that here

as in, i found none of that

[lament prairie]

If you have unpacked content you can see all the names and stuff

What’s actually wrong with the cpa mod

[kindred axle]

i dont quite know but it seems to be a known bug (by the bug reports) that animations dont work on the most recent cpa version

[mild talon]

I do.. I have seen images labeled other languages.. which confused me a bit. They're pictures ?

Or maps * actually

[lament prairie]

Have you actually tested the CP-A content pack in question to see if it doesn’t work?

To be frank, people comment all kinds of shit on nexus

[kindred axle]

i have

thats how i ended up on the bugs page

[lament prairie]

What’s the content pack?

[kindred axle]

Crowley's Arcane Tools

supposed to have lil magic animations

instead plays the normal pickaxe/axe anim

[grand lava]

sorry to bother again but all portrait mods have their portraits repacked back to xnb 💀

[halcyon igloo]

no they don’t

i have several portrait mods that do not in fact do that lol

[lament prairie]

Looks like possibly CP-A broke for tools somehow

not all

[halcyon igloo]

find a different mod lol that must be ancient

who are you trying to edit?

[neat plaza]

statistically very few do

[lament prairie]

CP-A has a few bugs in it that no one has been fixing due to upcoming changes and such

[halcyon igloo]

also i know someone just released a bachelorette portrait pack for CP

[grand lava]

I want to edit all villagers u.u

DGA does animations as well, you can try converting to DGA

[kindred axle]

interestingly enough, it doesnt even seem to register the mod as a cpa mod in logs

[lament prairie]

That’s weird

Wait maybe it’s not

[kindred axle]

my log might be screwed hold on

[lament prairie]

I think CP-A depends on CP

And just has some extra fields

[kindred axle]

no it seems to be working

[halcyon igloo]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/11491 try this one

oops sorry elizabeth lol

[kindred axle]

i could try going back to an older version?

or would those be incompatible with stardew's own version

[halcyon igloo]

screen moved!!

[lament prairie]

You can try reverting CP-A but then you’ll probably have SMAPI version problems

[grand lava]

ah got the message across! thank you! ❤️

[lament prairie]

You could also fork and PR CP-A if you know C#

[kindred axle]

i do not

[lament prairie]

There’s probably nothing you can do on the content pack side to fix CP-A bugs

Your best bet is probably trying DGA

[kindred axle]

doesnt dga also have known bugs?

i know it doesnt do well with recipes at least

[halcyon igloo]

i have only ever used DGA for furniture lol

[lament prairie]

DGA for recipes is completely unrelated to DGA for animations lol

Also there’s nothing actually bugged about DGA recipes afaik

[kindred axle]

eh i thought i'd ask

[lament prairie]

PPJA has formatting issues

[kindred axle]

oh

aight

is it easy to convert cpa to dga?

[native grail]

Okay, I've encountered a weird bug. In the background, I can always hear a clicking sound. Even during cutscenes, or the scene where it shows what you sold that is supposedly silent, always a soft "fshhhhhh" and a clicking sound. It disappears when I mute Ambient. Any ideas?

[lament prairie]

You basically have to rewrite it

There’s a couple packs I can link to

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10347

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10407

No idea about the weird sound unfortunately

[kindred axle]

do you mean I should just take the content.jsons and compare them?

[lament prairie]

You will need to:

• read the original content.json
• understand what it does
• read the DGA docs
• re-implement the mod for DGA

You can look at the two mods I linked for examples of mods that use the DGA animations feature

[kindred axle]

sigh

the things i do for the witch aesthetic

[lament prairie]

Tool animations are kind of a weird part of the game

[halcyon igloo]

have you downloaded warp totems to warp tomes lol

very witchy i think

[kindred axle]

yeah

but no other tools

wow i understand none of this

amazing

could I keep the same coordinates from the cpa version and transfer them to dga? it should refer to the same positions on the png and game source files, since im not changing those

im gonna take this to #making-mods-general actually

[humble delta]

Guys, my laptop just isn't opening discord, and when i try to copy smapi's log it just refuses

And when i tried to open stardew, it gave me this screen

[kindred axle]

well I can tell you one thing: that's not the full log

and if it is something is horribly wrong

[neat plaza]

is discord in task manager

[humble delta]

No

[kindred axle]

also. have you tried rebooting

[humble delta]

Probably this option

[kindred axle]

not even under background processes?

[neat plaza]

what do you mean "refuses" to copy log?

[humble delta]

In the video, i try to copy the log

And when i try to paste it, simply doesn't work

[humble delta]

My computer?

[celest vortex]

I followed a vid on yt about how to install mods but it's not working helpp

[neat plaza]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

@celest vortex 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

[neat plaza]

...yes

[humble delta]

Yes i have restarted it

[scarlet rune]

Guys could anyone help me? İts my first time installing mods i installed it but i did some stupid stuff and i got a lot of achievements that i didnt own and cant seem to delete them

I got like 7 achievements

SAM doesnt woek

[neat plaza]

from steam?

[neat plaza]

what's SAM?

[scarlet rune]

Steam Achievement Manager

[neat plaza]

right..

[native grail]

This sound bug is so annoying

[kindred axle]

yep

hm

[scarlet rune]

im assuming you dont know anything about it

[humble delta]

Yes i have restared it... something may have gone horribly wrong!

[kindred axle]

but discord is not under background processes?

[scarlet rune]

to remove steam achievements

[native grail]

I've found threads of people asking what this is from 2016 but no solution

[kindred axle]

also, if you don't mind, film a video to capture the entire process of the crash

[scarlet rune]

by sound bug you mean like the sounds coming off horibly?

[kindred axle]

so i can try and see the first few sentences of your crash log

[scarlet rune]

i have that when i disconnect my headphones

[kindred axle]

also

maybe try reinstalling smapi

might fix

[native grail]

No, it's a constant weird clicking sound that plays even in scenes/screens where no sound is supposed to sound. It doesn't stop. When I close my game and restart it, it's not there but will start after a few minutes

If I mute Ambient, I don't hear it but I can't hear any ambient sounds either.

[scarlet rune]

weird
when i disconnect my headphones the sound is like music cut music cut music *cut
it doesnt fix itself unless you restart you client

[native grail]

Same. But it only fixes it for a few minutes. Then it starts up again.

[humble delta]

My video as 200mb and discord only accepts 100mb

[kindred axle]

cut it to a few secs

i only rlly need the part where the console pops up

[humble delta]

Here are some pics,

[kindred axle]

write protection?

farm type manager is mentioned

try removing it and seeing if your game boots

[humble delta]

Video only really starts at 0:40 seconds

[halcyon igloo]

what’s that farm type manager folder

[humble delta]

It's a mod required for another mod that adds a bigger farm

The file

[halcyon igloo]

i know but why’s it look like that lol

is it a file or a folder

as it is in your computer

a screenshot would be nicer but

[humble delta]

Yeah my computer just... isnt taking screenshots for some reason

Also i can't open discord

As said before

[halcyon igloo]

you should really take the internal folder outside of the long folder name but hmm

[humble delta]

Wich long folder name?

Almost all of them are big

Ok, deleting all files that should be causing that.

Mainly just that farm type manager

[halcyon igloo]

inside of those folders i believe there is another single folder

you would be able to take that internal folder out and put that into the Mods folder

can you at least upload the log to smapi lol

[humble delta]

Turns out it was that Farm Type Manager

I deleted it, and it works!!

Thanks sm guys

[glacial bane]

do other mods work w ridgeside

[halcyon igloo]

uhh reinstall it lol

[halcyon igloo]

the other expansions? yea

[glacial bane]

?

[halcyon igloo]

which mods

[glacial bane]

like any

like item spawner stuff

or money giver

and like fashion

[lament prairie]

literally all of them should

unless they edit the same area of the bus stop

[glacial bane]

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.

might look weird, but nothing should break

[glacial bane]

oki

[halcyon igloo]

curseforge bad

[solid mica]

WHAT!

:O

what do yall use

[halcyon igloo]

stardew valley modding is recommended to be managed either manually or with stardrop bc other mod managers do weird things to the files and it can be hard to troubleshoot

up until like 3 weeks ago i literally just dragged and dropped my own folders

it’s not that bad

stardrop is a manager specifically for stardew valley

but manual is not bad at all

[solid mica]

i might just go in raw fr

[halcyon igloo]

just manually manage it

i still download my mods and organize them manually i just use stardrop for mod groups

[solid mica]

[halcyon igloo]

stardew modding is literally just drag and drop

[stray isle]

hhhhhey. failing to get smapi to open at all, it won't even load, just crashes upon execution.

[solid mica]

just call it a day mama

[neat plaza]

ok! just a sec

Hello guys, I'm new on modding stardew, I was wondering how can I check if the player is on his bed, I tried an old method but it seems it does not exist anymore?

if (Game1.player.currentLocation is Farm farm && farm.getBedSpot(Game1.player) is Vector2 bedSpot && Game1.player.getStandingPosition() == bedSpot) {
...
}

[stray isle]

ok!!!

tysm :D

[trim knoll]

wrong channel right?

[gaunt gust]

!decompile , also #making-mods-general , also the bed is a furniture item now

[native dragon]

If you want to make SMAPI mods with C#, one important resource is decompiling the game to read the game code. Here's how to do it: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Modder_Guide/Get_Started#How_do_I_decompile_the_game_code.3F

[trim knoll]

ty

[gaunt gust]

But I believe it still has the tile property

[solid mica]

it says unknown smapi version on stardrop

[mild talon]

(Is that an example of c#? I can almost read that in English. Weird how it says "andand")

[solid mica]

helpiana

[neat plaza]

that's how boolean checking works in most languages

[mild talon]

Did you do this, piojos?

[solid mica]

i fixed it

[mild talon]

Huzzah

[solid mica]

omg theres a sam remodel mod hehehehehehehehehe

[stray isle]

it fixed it, thank you! :D

[cinder sequoia]

hi everyone! i am currently trying to configure the Fast Travel mod so that I can use it for myself in SVE and fix some locations due to my other mods interfering with spawn points

I successfully fixed the already exisiting spawn points by changing their coordinates but I'm having difficult making brand new spawn points because a value for "GameLocationIndex" is needed but I can't seem to find a list or resource that lists the information needed for this. Has anyone been able to find this in the raw code? I am fairly new to coding/editing code so any help would be greatly appreciated!!

[lament prairie]

I looked at the mod page and I have no idea

It might just be a number associated with the warp point???

Oh lmao

it's a poorly-documented random list in the game code

[cinder sequoia]

so do i still need to add a value to the "GameLocationIndex" ?

[lament prairie]

You need that value yes

it determines which map you warp to

there's...no good way to transmit this information, it's a hardcoded list of locations that's done in a really verbose way in the code

why did they do this

this should have been a string

[cinder sequoia]

[gaunt gust]

It's also highly, highly not to be deterministic

ie, "don't expect it to be stable for modded areas"

[cinder sequoia]

is there anyway to work around this

[lament prairie]

Here's a chunk of the relevant code https://smapi.io/json/none/19a52ff80c284d36af4e94d947643acc

It should count up from 0

[cinder sequoia]

THANK U

[compact helm]

hey

[lament prairie]

beyond that you might just have to try random numbers

[compact helm]

someone can help me?

[lament prairie]

because this is just the vanilla code

[compact helm]

on smapi

i have problems

[lament prairie]

!howtoask

[native dragon]

When asking for help with modding issues, please:

• Ask in #archived-modded-support
• Try to explain what the issue or problem is. Please be specific!
• If it's SMAPI installation related, please state whether you're using Windows/Mac/Linux and Steam/GOG/Gamepass.
• Provide a log if you have one (see https://smapi.io/log for instructions). Please provide a log even if there's no errors or warnings! If you are playing multiplayer, we will need a log from every player.
• Please remember no one's getting paid to answer your questions! It may take some time for someone to answer! If no one has answered in a few hours, feel free to ask again

[gaunt gust]

Pretty sure it won't be deterministic for mod-added areas then

and you thought JSON shuffle was bad

[compact helm]

Are these mods not working?

[gaunt gust]

those work fine

[mild talon]

They're working

[compact helm]

hmm thx

[lament prairie]

You can possibly install console code and use it to print this list out

[cinder sequoia]

if this doesn't work is there a way to find the Game Index Location using debug mode somehow?

[lament prairie]

But jesus christ what a mess, maybe they have console commands to help?

[compact helm]

is this working?

[hushed barn]

it's just a warning to say hey if you were having issues then this would probably be the reason.

[lament prairie]

Nope that one is out of date

[gaunt gust]

If you can install console code and figure that out, you can fork that mod and make it use strings imo

[lament prairie]

!uiinfosuite

[native dragon]

If you go to https://github.com/Annosz/UIInfoSuite2/releases, you can find UI Info Suite 2, which works with Stardew 1.5.5+. Download the first zip, not the source code.

[compact helm]

if not, how can i make it work?

[mild talon]

You need to download the unofficial github version linked in the log

[compact helm]

hmm ok

[sudden cedar]

okay so good news, updating all the mods actually did fix the lag issues, which is good, those in the last log were the last of like a 100 mods i had to update so i broke it up into a few days but i guess some of the last ones were v important to update, appreciate the reply

[hushed barn]

except the UI info one that is out of date.

[lament prairie]

Link here for replacement

[sudden cedar]

also something has turned the shoes on both my characters feet red but i'm not sure why, or if it happens with other shoes, but i'll worry about that later, it seems like its only linked to the shoes i'm wearing

[compact helm]

oohh im brazilian and dont can understand many things

thanks for helping

and sorry for bad english

[gaunt gust]

delete and respawn those shoes

[lament prairie]

Ok the good news is that there is a console command to print all the locations. The bad news is that atra's probably right and they might change on you.

[gaunt gust]

that happens for corrupted shoes.

[mild talon]

😅 I'm kinda compulsive about keeping my mods up-to-date. Seems to be worth it for bug fixes and optimizations!

[lament prairie]

ft_helper locations should print a list

[sudden cedar]

oh thanks i'll fix that then

[cinder sequoia]

thanks so much for all of your help!!

[mild talon]

!uiinfosuite2

same usually, i just haven't played in months so i had like 100+ to update at once

There's a FS bug I've seen w sleeves leaving red areas on the hands or arms. Maybe your red shoe feet are like that 🤷 @/Puffer

[dire fractal]

how do i get the crash?

[lament prairie]

it looks like your log upload is from before the game finished loading in

Upload log right after the crash happens

[gaunt gust]

nope, red is just index 0

[lament prairie]

There's something funky with textures going on

[gaunt gust]

nothing more special than that

[gaunt gust]

ah, you sent a different pictures with a spritebatch error in it and then deleted it!

Hello! I'm getting a weird error where the Game Menu crashes whenever I swap out a clothing item (doesn't happen when swapping rings though, nor when using the FashionSense Hand Mirror). Looks like its trying to access a "disposed" item, but not sure what that would be. Possibly a mod conflict? I already tried disabling the Farmer Base changes from Seasonal Outfits - Slightly Cuter Aesthetic, and was directed here by the mod author. Here's my SMAPI Log below. Any help would be appreciated.

hi all! i was recently playing stardew valley expanded and decided to close out of my game and update the mod. although, when i tried to open SMAPI again, the log stated that sve files were deleted as to prevent a crash in my game. i am very concerned and not a super techy person, so is there any way somebody could help me out? thanks so much!! here's the log: https://smapi.io/log/923e11ddfe9543d2a2d6de45f74533ba

just hover your cursor over the thing you want to lookup and hit F1

did you delete any NPCs? errorhandler gives messages like that when it finds references to NPCs that no longer exist

the mods cover the same characters, but i'd like to use one mod for some of the characters and another mod for the rest

only one at a time

[rancid egret]

Hmmmm it keeps bringing me to a page outside of the game, I might have to play around a little with computer then

[tiny pawn]

i reckon they could have deleted when updating the mod, although i never opened the game with the mod not present. i didn't manually delete any, though!

[halcyon igloo]

some portrait mods have configurations but you could just replace the portraits in one mod with ones from the other that you want to use

[halcyon igloo]

huh interesting. what page is it bringing you to?

you have all of expanded instaleld twice

hi all! i hope this is a good place to ask a question about if a mod exists for a certain feature. i'm looking for a mod that will freeze time in multiplayer if ANY player meets the condition. for example, if 1 farmhand has the inventory open, the game will pause. does a mod like that exist? i'm having a really hard time finding one

[halcyon igloo]

#modded-stardew might know

[balmy gust]

thank you! i'll try there

i found something that works for the pause in multiplayer!! i was having a hard time understanding how it works on github but this works perfectly if anyone else is looking for it: https://github.com/Tawling/MultiPause

Yes

All of the Windows versions

Here, let me open a fresh powershell to show they're installed properly

[gaunt gust]

python -m pip install json5

Windows python sucks

[strong vale]

Already did that

Wait

[gaunt gust]

You have multiple versions probably

[halcyon igloo]

windows python weird

i keep hoeing myself with my different python installations lol

[gaunt gust]

So calling python -m specifically says "okay, install for this version of the interpreter you silly program"

I took two semesters of Python in college and I've somehow never heard of this before

American education system, what the heck

So

Did it work or is there smth else I have to do. It said successfully installed but threw up a crap ton of other garbage on here too

Lemme test

[halcyon igloo]

TWO semesters? damn

[gaunt gust]

https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html

and no environments lol

i just use conda

Yeah!!!

It feels like they skipped smth apparently vitally important

I only ever learned how to code via PATH

it’s not SUPER important but definitely a QoL thing

It's an IDE for Python, basically

Is there any great way to check if 2 Or more mods may interfere with each other Good example I wanted to install some Modes to make your children look more unique and also grow up What's a good way to check if The Mods are going to interfere with each other

Hey im using mods for the first time and having trouble with SMAPI, I have about 60 mods currently and only half of them are loading. SMAPI says in the startup that 37 mods have warning and are being skipped and not sure why, it doesn't tell me which mods are causing this issue. If anyone can help, please do.

[halcyon igloo]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[halcyon igloo]

that bit usually lists the names of the mods that can not be added after the message

immediately afterward

[halcyon igloo]

read the mod page

[steel robin]

I uploaded my lastest log into the SMAPI log thing and it told to me to update a mod which I did but still didn't fix my issue that 37 mods are still not being loaded. https://smapi.io/log/60605a550bfd423d953d26205ecb1ff0?Sections=ModUpdateList&Levels=trace~debug~info~warn~error~alert~critical

[lament prairie]

The log seems to be missing some information

Found 37 mods with warnings: does not seem to skip mods

Oh, actually 0 mods are skipped

The 37 mods with warnings are all about the save serializer or the lack of update keys

However you also have this in Trace:

Which makes me suspect there's a log line just missing

[steel robin]

Shouldn't there be more mods in the startup since I have 61 mods added into my mods folder? only 19 actually load into my game when I launch..

[lament prairie]

The log doesn't reflect that

How are you getting 19?

[south chasm]

I'm confused here. It says it's an empty folder, but I do have files in there. Case in point for 2nd screenshot of mod folder.

[halcyon igloo]

it means there’s no manifest i think?

dunno why it thinks it needs one there also is that a TMX folder for SVE? O.o

i don’t… think SVE uses TMXL anymore?

[south chasm]

Should I delete it then? I guess I can make a copy of it and see what happens next time I launch it.

[halcyon igloo]

where did you download SVE from lol

[restive cypress]

Yeah sve hasn't required tmxl map kit for like two (?) Years now

[south chasm]

The red text is no longer there after deleting TMX. I guess it wasn't needed.

Oh, I know why now. I also downloaded a reskin mod that made everyone into furries so I copy pasted files and it included a TMX folder. Wonder if it means some shop portraits are regular people.

SVE was DLed straight from Nexus, I just didn't know another mod I was using would have an outdated folder.

[strong vale]

Am I dumb

[halcyon igloo]

i have not used this particular converter lol sorry

[strong vale]

Yeah

Definitely have Python 3.10, I already installed json5 and confirmed it works from earlier, and I ran the script via the folder with Powershell

Lets see if the help function works

[halcyon igloo]

have you tried python3 instead

[strong vale]

Nope, help function doesn't work

I can try that!

[halcyon igloo]

oh

you're running python 3.7 lol

or it's pulling from that library

[strong vale]

I have a few Python versions, yeah. Python 3.10 is what I normally pull from

[halcyon igloo]

do python --version

[strong vale]

Ah yeah, it's pulling from 3.7.0

GAH

[halcyon igloo]

(different python versions is an excellent situation for venv)

[strong vale]

Lemme uninstall the other dang Python versions

There we go, I only have 3.10.10 now

Curse my old professors

Weird?

Now it's not detecting my 3.10 version?

Fixed it

Just installed it via the Microsoft store

[halcyon igloo]

might also be a py thing

[strong vale]

Wooo it worked!

Hrm, looks like it didn't convert the shop portrait tho

[halcyon igloo]

it might only support a certain set of characters (most popular)

[strong vale]

I can probably just do that one manually

It's a DCBurger for RidgesideVillage, so I figured that one'd be popular

It did the rest of them

[halcyon igloo]

the shop portrait?

[strong vale]

Yes

Just fixing it manually since it's just the one

[halcyon igloo]

probably doesn't support STF

[strong vale]

Yeah

Hopefully my manual edit works

[lament prairie]

python on windows is vaguely hell

i recommend conda

[halcyon igloo]

pillow's rust GUI wouldn't use my conda python for some reason lol

[lament prairie]

I think conda is something like "a small box within which it's easy to control things"

and windows as a whole is like "a large box of snakes, rummaging around may or may not get what you want"

[halcyon igloo]

so i ended up having into install python python anyway

[lament prairie]

At a guess, rust can't peek inside the nice box

but idk much about rust (or windows tbh) so idk if this is accurate

Hey, I had a problem with a mod called MARGO and when I asked the developer for help they told me:-

"This mod basically pastes an equal-sized weapons tilesheet over the original.
Probably you have a mod that changes the size of that tilesheet, to add new weapons, and that's causing funky behavior.

You can type 'patch summary TileSheets/weapons' in the console to find out which mods are messing with the weapons tilesheet, and remove them one by one until the error disappears.
Alternatively, you can just disable the weapons retexture option in Arsenal configs if you don't care about that."

But I am not good with coding so I don't understand what they want me to do can someone translate what they said into a language that I can understand?

[halcyon igloo]

in the smapi window type literal patch summary TileSheets/weapons

it saves a copy of that tilesheet to your game files folder

you can look at it and see what random thing was added

[mossy fossil]

oh hi holythesea ☺️

ok

do i need to wait for the game to load first?

[halcyon igloo]

yes

[mossy fossil]

ok

have you made any mods?

[halcyon igloo]

only a content patcher one

[mossy fossil]

i removed Margo do i need it installed?

[halcyon igloo]

not necessarily to see what other mod is affecting the file

[mossy fossil]

👍

so I did that and it typed this:

what does that mean?

[dusty spruce]

it's patch export, not patch summary

[mossy fossil]

the developer told me to type that

i will do what you are saying after holythesea is finished

[halcyon igloo]

you can either just do a patch summary alone or patch export TileSheets/weapons

i would do patch export

[dusty spruce]

"the developer" what

[mossy fossil]

i don't understand -_-

[halcyon igloo]

dalion lol

[mossy fossil]

am i dump?

[halcyon igloo]

they made a bug report

[dusty spruce]

ah

they made a doodoo

[halcyon igloo]

just type in patch export TileSheets/weapons lol

into the smapi console

[mossy fossil]

ok

I got this: [Content Patcher] Exported asset 'TileSheets/weapons' to 'C:\Users\DELL\OneDrive\Desktop\Games\Stardew.Valley.v1.5.6\Stardew.Valley.v1.5.6\patch export\TileSheets_weapons.png'.

[halcyon igloo]

open that image that it told you the name of

[mossy fossil]

ok one sec

I got this

[dusty spruce]

doesn't look like any of your mods edit the spritesheet

[halcyon igloo]

huh. it is missing a ton of stuff though

[dusty spruce]

oh wait yeah

this is the original

[halcyon igloo]

and has an random iridium scythe

i assume it's an iridium scythe mod

i don't think it's 1.5 compatible

[mossy fossil]

you mean the useless mod that does nothing other than change the golden scythe looks is the thing that has been causing all of this...

ok

i will try it now

[halcyon igloo]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10560 could try this one instead if you really want an iridium scythe

[mossy fossil]

it worked thanks 😄

btw I have another problem with a mod called Elegant Victorian Furniture it changes the beds which is a nice feature but it also tries to change the bed for the NPC (a part of the bed is changed while the other is still vanilla) and it doesn't really match with their houses so I want to remove that I asked a guy for help and they told me to replace the content file with a one that they edited but it just made the bed get fully replaced instead of half replaced I want to remove that bed can someone help me?

here is the log: https://smapi.io/log/b9b6c9b3563f404289da1bcd192d5f2b

[halcyon igloo]

idk i’d just replace it with a mod that changes the bed if that’s what you’re after

[mossy fossil]

no i want the vanilla bed

Another note it doesn't change my bed it only changes the NPC's bed -_-

[halcyon igloo]

apparently the NPC bed is just a tile then lmao

[shy orbit]

those are patches in the content.json file that Target Maps/townInterior i'd guess. if the mod doesn't change anything else you care about in that tilesheet you could try removing the png files from the mod that have towninterior in the name (if the beds are coming from them to begin with)

[native grail]

Weird ambient audio crackling bug in Winter remains no matter what I do

[shy orbit]

have you restarted the computer after it started? i had to do that (or resetting the sound system) in the past pretty often to avoid crackling audio in SDV

[native grail]

No, I haven't. I mean, it started yesterday (as soon as I entered winter) and I noticed it starts when the wind picks up or when I exited the museum.

Is this a vanilla bug? Removing SAAT did nothing

[shy orbit]

i had it for all sounds so probably not exactly the same issue. i don't know if it was a native or modded issue for me

[native grail]

I've never had an issue before but I got a new pc a few days ago, also went from Windows 7 to to 10

[gaunt gust]

HD portraits is automatic for shops

It's nicely done too, even mod-created shops are naturally handled

[native grail]

Curious. I restarted and while the bug did occur as soon as the wind went "whoosh" again, at least it stopped when I went to bed this time. Previously, it was constant.

[rustic nexus]

if i download an older version of smapi do i need to download the older versions of mods too

[long brook]

You might need to as some new mods are optimized for newer smapi

Why do you need older smapi tho?

[rustic nexus]

old laptop, 1.5.6 stardew valley only works with the compatibility version which smapi doesnt support

[restive cypress]

Would anyone know why the Prismatic tool mod would need to edit 'Maps/springobjects'? It seems to be conflicting with Lux's food mod, by trying to edit the same ''area'' but because of Lux relying on sprites in detail that area has 'more pixels' leading to Prismatic tools to crash (At least that's what I think the issue is).

[restive cypress]

I'm thinking I may just have to stop using prismatics tools and just move over to radioactive tools

it already was bugging with enchantments

[rustic nexus]

does sdve not have any older downloads

[restive cypress]

Are you trying to get the older version for mobile? cause if yes: !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

[neat plaza]

does on moddrop

[gaunt gust]

Sprinkler

[latent aurora]

hello

does anyone know how to download mods in the gamepass version of stardew

[restive cypress]

Thank you so much! Should I try to (find a way to) remove the sprinkler, so I can make the game work?

[long brook]

!gamepasssmapi

[native dragon]

Installing SMAPI for Gamepass requires extra steps. Please see the guide here https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Xbox_app

[latent aurora]

ty

[long brook]

Try to install smapi and then run the game first after installation. Make sjre to follow the guide carefully

[latent aurora]

i keep getting an error

@long brook

[long brook]

did you run the installer from inside the zip file? if yes, you need to extract the file first then run the installer

[latent aurora]

nope

i extracted it

[gaunt gust]

well, that' will require forking the mod and editing the c#

so if you want to you can

[gaunt gust]

delete everything, including gamepass, and try again from the start

gamepass is apparently bad at this updating thing

[latent aurora]

i did what you said but now i get this error after i try to install it

[neat plaza]

did you enable modding in gamepass? (iirc thats a thing)

[latent aurora]

there is no option to do that

[long brook]

Could be the folder to where SDV is write protected?

[gaunt gust]

Well that still isn't the right folder

It should be XboxGames something

I guess start from the top again and make sure you have the latest version of gamepass

Unfortunately I don't have gamepass and cannot help you further

[latent aurora]

my stardew valley folder is in windows apps not the designated folder for some reason

i can't move it 💀

[long brook]

In steam you can choose where the installation folder is, but idk if gamespass has that feature too

[ebon yacht]

you just have to redirect the file pathing within game pass. this happened to me and i was able to fix it.

[latent aurora]

i did

twice

[ebon yacht]

i had to uninstall and reinstall it for it to correct the pathing.

[latent aurora]

here?

like the xbox app?

or the game

what did you do exactly

[ebon yacht]

mine looks like this, i think yours is correct yes. i had to change the path, and then install the game/reinstall it for it to actually redirect the files properly, and while reinstalling you should double check that it doesn't try to revert the file pathing to windowsapps.

[latent aurora]

bet

so change the folder first then reinstall?

[ebon yacht]

first i just tried copy/pasting the files into the xboxgames folder where my other games were, and it didn't work. it copied them but basically made them shortcuts. so i had to reverse the copy/paste. then i went into the game pass settings for the game and changed the folder where it's installed, so i changed it from D:\WindowsApps to D:\XboxGames. then i went to check if the files had moved over, which they did, but i still had the original ones in the windowsapps folder, so i uninstalled and reinstalled stardew and it was in the correct folder. i was worried about losing my saves cause i wasn't sure how the cloud system worked so i also copied my saves to my desktop before uninstalling and reinstalling just incase lol

i also had to uninstall and reinstall smapi due to the file path changing. so you may have to do that as well

[latent aurora]

in my case it says my game folder is in xbox games but they're in windows apps

this is what it looks like for me

[ebon yacht]

the whole xboxgames folder is in your windowsapps folder?

ohh, or its saying your game is in the xboxgames folder when its actually not??

[dire fractal]

the mod I just downloaded is a .rar file, will that work still if I put it in the stardew mod folder?

[ebon yacht]

you have to extract the file.

using winrar or another extraction tool

[dire fractal]

T,...,T I was afaid you were going to say that.

[ebon yacht]

do you not have winrar or an extraction tool?

[dire fractal]

nope

[ebon yacht]

winrar is free

many mods are packed into rar/zip folders and require being extracted in order to install and use them. i highly suggest getting winrar !

[dire fractal]

where do i go to get winrar legitimately?

[ebon yacht]

their website. i'll grab you a link!

[dusty spruce]

at this point you should get a different tool, not WinRAR

7-Zip most likely

[ebon yacht]

why not winrar?

[neat plaza]

7-zip's pretty good ^
