Most likely, but we need both logs.
Please help, game crashes when I try to fish. Multiplayer

Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them
Are you the host or the farmhand? Also need all player logs
Also you may want to verify your files, that's an error that looks suspiciously vanilla. You didn't happen to replace anything in your content folder, did you?
(Especially especially because a loop was broken with Data/Fish!)
I verified all files a few days ago, did modifications only with mod folder.
(Not on host pc though)
Yeah then A) verify on host PC and B ) we need host's log too
https://smapi.io/log/e25da0e888164688860348819c712d50
Host log
I don't think we did any changes in content folder for the host tbh. Lemme do it.

The host also fished and crashed. This is the log after crashing
Have the host load their file, then once they're in game, have them type patch summary full in the SMAPI console and send a new log
Either your Data/Fish is broken and you need to re-verify files, or a mod is loading Data/Fish and causing a loop and crashing things.
I have a mod on my client end using cheats for instant bite...

I didn't see a mod difference that includes instant bite?
The only mod I see different - which you should install or your friend should - is Bigger Backpack
one of you has it, other does not.
(And that should be installed by both, btw.)

I installed that mod after the 1st crash today. I sent the log after the 2nd crash (on my PC)
So its not that mod probably
CJB cheats menu
It still may be, Als. I'd still remove it for checking purposes
In any event, though
Both of you have CJB cheats, so it's not that.
the log you've given does not show you loading into the game. Load into the game, then get your log
Yes, even if it crashes that way, in case I need to specify.
Should i re add the mod? I deleted it already
Nah. If it's crashing without it, it A) isn't the mod but B ) we should probably avoid complicating factors
It only crashes with it, but give me a few moments to get that for you. I appreciate the help
But you stated here it still doesn't work?
So you want the host to log into the game, type 'patch summary full' and then send the log? Does the other two players need to log in?
Nope, no other players need to log in. I am somewhat confused though - wasn't the prior log you sent the host's?
The patch summary full? It was the host
Hm. Okay, that complicates things.
Please have all players disable "better fishing", then try
The patch summary indicates it ain't content patcher editing data/fish, so it's probably a C# mod
And something is looping Data/Fish.
I meant it crashes with market mod but i removed shoplifter as it could have been a problem
Right, so what I'm hearing from this statement is you still have Market Day, do not have shoplifter, and are still crashing
Yes. I ap
Ergo, we need that log from when you're logging into the game
Apologize

We are going to try disabling better fishing from the mods menu. Do you need us to remove it from the mods folder as well?
Log Info: SMAPI 3.18.2 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Microsoft Windows 11 Home, with 77 C# mods and 106 content packs.
...the second way is how you remove mods? From what "menu" are you saying you'll remove it from?
This is still not having loaded into the game?
I can tell btw microwaves because the log will record if it goes to the load menu and when loading a particular file
Using generic mod config menu to disable it. Disabling everything here. Is that okay? Or do you want us to remove the mod.
You used the word disable so we thought of this initially.
That may technically work, but I'd just yeet the entire thing.
also don't disable it in game after it's already loaded stuff D:
I'm trying to log the log into the smapi log parser and it keeps giving me trouble
Thanks
I dont see a bucket all I see is paint
Is anyone aware of what happened to the Walk of Life (Immersive Professions) and all related mods? It looks like it's been deleted from Nexus and no message left anywhere if they will eventually be updated or if third parties could try their hand at keeping them updated, etc.
Please don't mind if we report back tomorrow or later. We can't play right now to test it. The host isn't playing anymore.
I am so confused, my workbench just doesnt work at all (not even vanilla with connecting to adjacent chests). The mods I have that could potentially affect it are automate, better chests, and better crafting. I do have extended workbench turned on in better crafting and workbench distance to "infinite" in better chests, but my workbench just wont work.
walk of life is now margo
though it seems like dalion hid the page to update it, it should be back after some time
hi, i opened up stardew after a looong time, and tried to update all my mods. seems like the mod Adopt 'n' Skin (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4011?tab=description&issue_id=423119&BH=1) is having a weird error that I'm not sure how to troubleshoot. I am also unable to set skins for specific animals, with the console claiming that certain assets do not exist when I see them in the folders. Is there something wrong with my file paths, has anyone had this issue and knows how to fix it? I had this issue with the current suggested download as well as the newest beta.
That's a relief to hear. Thank you. What do you mean by it's now margo, though? Is that going to be its new name or...?
yes, margo is like the improved and updated all-in-one version of their previous mods. it's MARGO for Modular Gameplay Overhaul
Cool! Thanks for the info 
^they for some reason cant get smapi to install itself and here is the error code that appears when it runs
I'm guessing they unzipped wrong
Make sure the installer is unzipped
if need be, delete the zip file after unzipping
so it can't confuse you
Hi, i have a friend who has a bad pc and he's wondering if CP mods that change aesthetic will his game go slower. He's already having problems with perfomance when it rains or snows, so if there's any mod that can help with that ill be very glad too
!sm
SpriteMaster (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4922) is a mod that resamples the game's graphics to be smoother and improves performance.
(Disable resampling to remove the graphical changes)
And yes, as it modifies the game, it will make it go slower, though how much slower depends - could be barely visible, could grind things to a halt. Depends on the mod.
Note that SM does increase RAM usage in exchange for performance
So if your friend has also no RAM that could be an issue
installer and everything is unzipped, still doesnt work
Send a screenshot of where your installer is
That error specifcally is pretty much "you didn't unzip"
This isn't helpful. That just shows inside the folder
Elizabeth mentioned that the error is you didn't unzip. We need to see where the folder is, and whether it's a zipped folder still or not.
when it says like local/temp etc not accessible exception that's usually can't unzip
notably it's unable to access the installer
and not the game or anything
hi guys i was using aspen npc adventures mod
so went on a journey with aspen and after spending the day (mod worked fine until then)
when i made her leave me, the game got stuck and it crashed
the log had red errors related to npc adventures so thought to ask what happened
https://smapi.io/log/2abb1e7b1349467bb1865ff1c739927e
the log mentions red errors with NPC adventures, the main mod

Unfortunately I don't really know why NPC adventures is breaking
and the error doesn't tell me much
You'll probably have to report to the author
thats unfortunate
npc adventures has always been that mod which causes issues, but a lovely one otherwise
hopefully someone else got a better idea
before i report
thank you for looking into it
ohh

where do you put the file for the skull cavern mod because I have no idea 😭
Skull Cavern Elevator? by any chance?
And with every other mod
yeah
Stardew Valley\Mods
If you use steam it'll be in: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods
but my issue is I have ermm tired using Smapi is it but it won't detect my game.
yeah one sec
you can get the log via
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\StardewValley\ErrorLogs\
What platform is your regular SDV?
I don't know it's just on my pc
well... how do you launch un modded SDV?
where did you buy the game, bittersweet?
I didn't buy it my brother already had it on here I got his old pc
It's just on my desktop
do you have any stardew valley shortcut in your computer?
yeah
oh okay, right click and it should say something like open original location
yeah I just can't find that file it's asking for
Try clicking "properties" it will tell us where it leads to
the stardewvalley.dll should be in the content folder. maybe you have to check to show extensions
go to view -> show -> file extensions
that doesn't look like an original game
I was told to post this in #vanilla-tech-support and now here sooooo
I'm trying to choose a profession for level 10 fishing, but whenever I click it just makes the noise it does when you harvest a crop / pick something up and doesn't let me choose / continue, does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?
Btw I'm on pc, using the mods: Better Artisan Good Icons, Better Ranching 1.9.0, Console Commands 3.18.1, Error Handler 3.18.2, Generic Mod Config Menu 1.10.0, GMCM Options 1.2.0, Save Backup 3.18.2, To-Dew 1.12.0, Tool Smart Switch 0.3.0, UI Info Suite 2 2.2.9.
- This is the first time getting fishing level 10
if you're able to, ask your brother where he got it from
My stardewvalley.dll isn't in the content folder, it's in the main SDV folder.
I'll check that
sorry, i have two content folders bc my game is from xbox game pass
I am so blind.
I have found it.
I still don't know what I am doing with the mod file
Do you have the log? There might be something going on there.
And have you tried hitting esc ||iirc it's esc||to skip the level up screen. (It will keep asking each following night what your profession will be until it's chosen)
Type in the file path to the .dll, let it install. Go BACK to the file path. There is now a mods folder. Put the mod file in there.
I tried doing that but it did nothing, I ended up closing the game and opening it again, but that just brought me to the start of the same day
ty
Make sure to unzip the files, and delete the remaining zip, bittersweet
Wait what do you mean have the log?
!log send this
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
I could have sworn the game saves before it shows the profession select screen...
What you could do, is make a backup of the save. Spend the day ONLY getting to level 10 fishing to minimize time spent (you can go back to the backup save if your current day is important, and your stats say what level you are even if you haven't had the level up screen at night). That night, see if it works. If it fails again. Send us your Smapi log and try pushing random buttons to see if you can skip the choose profession screen ||I'm not 100% sure, but i coulda sworn there was a way to skip it||
Ok, will do
Your saves should be located here: C:\Users\YOUR_ACC\AppData\Roaming\StardewValley
same with your last log... tbh, if you haven't started SDV since the bug. The latest log should still contain what happened.
Ended up removing a mod I forgot I had added (The Tool Smart Switch one) and it ended up removing the problem, sorry for bothering you
The event isnt working, and ive tried to change qinghua’s coordinates but it doesnt seem to work, any ideas?
Event debugging is very annoying
You'll have to carefully look through the original event for typos and issues
is there a mod for better mine rewards? like the chests on every 10th floor?
What is “exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation” in not coding terms
Bad
Lmao
Afaik no
There are remixed mine rewards but frankly I think those are worse somehow
IT WORKED
I do think they are worse too
I’m playing with the walk the dessert redux mod and my mod folder says I’m playing with 1.13.1 but my game still says I’m playing 1.13.0 and the mod isn’t working because I need to update I’m so confused why the mod isn’t working

From all players since you've got a Multiplayer error
how do i know if my mods are in the game
open your game, and you should get a black window screen much like the one that was just posted (hopefully without all the red) and listing all your mods
Hey, wondering if anyone can help with crashes with multiplayer mods. Im hosting for 2 friends and they're crashing quite often, usually once a day and sometimes at the same time. My game almost never crashes, just the other people playing. I also dont get any errors in my logs or in the SMAPI terminal so I'm not sure what the issue could be. Attached is my list of mods
my logs: https://smapi.io/log/0bfbd3ac408246b6b3be59b748f67059?Levels=trace~debug~info~warn~error~alert~critical
one of my friends logs: https://smapi.io/log/b95a2d9058a8454f9932406b1cc5ec21
Log Info: SMAPI 3.18.2 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Microsoft Windows 10 Home, with 24 C# mods and 14 content packs.

Log Info: SMAPI 3.18.2 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Microsoft Windows 11 Home, with 35 C# mods and 23 content packs.
Suggested fixes: You don't have the Error Handler mod installed, reinstall SMAPI to get it
They don't have Error Handler
I can't say for sure, since nothing in the log clearly indicates a crash, but in general Getting error handler (by reinstalling SMAPI) is best
Their log sort of just cuts off in the middle of loading, so nothing interesting there
I assume they grabbed the log while it was loading?
My friend needs to reinstall SMAPI?
Either that or figure out where they put Error Handler
Most people who don't have it don't remember where they put it
Is error handler like a separate mod or something?
Your friend does also have a different set of mods
Error Handler is one of the 3 default mods SMAPI comes with
It helps handle a lot of errors
Yea very different, I do have another friend with almost the exact same set of mods and theyre crashing too, though
I cant get her to reduce her mods lol
24 C# mods and 14 content packs vs 35 C# mods and 23 content packs is pretty bad lol
I haven't done a side-by-side to say but it's easiest to just match exactly
!mpmods
See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide#Do_mods_work_in_multiplayer.3F for details on how mods work in multiplayer. :)
the best way would be for one of y'all to send their mod folder to everyone else
So if my friend has Error Handler in their mods list, we should see the errors printed in their logs when the game crashes?
Maybe its because they didn't hit join via lan. instead it just shows the available lan servers and they clicked that?...
I am one of the friends, it spams red texts in my console and everytime I scroll down on the console it keeps going with red text and doesn't stop so I can read them. And it doesn't close my game out but I can't do anything unless I close my game out
Yeah we need those red texts then
I would think it would go in my error log folder but I reinstalled smapi and got that error handle folder so maybe I'll have a better log 😂
And continues
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
post the actual log
Where is my log? the errorlogs folder isn't updated to this crash
I think those errors are cuz her name in game is Heather ❤️ and it causes that error
interesting
just to confirm, the log path exists
isn't read only
doesn't have drive issues
and isn't currently on fire
it's failing while it's trying to write the log, which should be in the same directory as the usual SMAPI log
(different filename though)
Yea maybe thats preventing us from seeing whats actually wrong
The website won't load my log 😦
windows though, previous reports were Mac 😦
I think the macOS ones were a bit different too
like the MacOS ones had the wrong fallback
this one is upset about the directory maybe??
When I put the file on the website, this happens 🥲
18,000 kb lolol
!logtoobig wait what
If the log is too big, see here for how to fix that https://stardewmodding.miraheze.org/wiki/Debugging#If_the_log_is_too_big_/_parser_site_won't_load_it
18MB isn't that big
riiight lol
I guess 3MB does sort of strain things
idk my reference is a little broken
But probably try cutting things out
do you know of a way to fix her name? We dont have the friendship with the wizard to do it normally in game
Is the issue that she has weird special characters in her name?
Some quick debug commands can fix you up if you need to visit the wiz
it seems to be an issue, i dont think its causing the crash as thats just very weird
debug warp wiz
we also have another person playing that has no special characters but also crashes
That person should send a log too
This is probably a mod issue right? Lol thats sterling from always raining in the valley btw
Just for shits and giggles: next to Errorlogs can you make a directory named DisconnectLogs
already one and all the notepads are empty
debug friendship Wizard 1000 should be 4 hearts
How do I make heather friends with the wizard so she can change her name?
Or does it only matter if host is friends with wizard? for me to be able to change my name (i'm not host)
Can I run a command in the SMAPI terminal or do I have to open it with ~?
the debug command I just said, for heather
heather has to type into the smapi terminal
even if i'm not host?
yes
friendship is by farmer
you need to be the one to be friends with the wizard
Okay, I'll try that. I would think only host could do that
no, plenty of debug commands work for everyone
I know this is very possible, but I don't remember how: how do you create two modded folders and tell your game to load one?
!modgroups
See this link for how to load different mod groups: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Can_I_have_different_mod_groups.3F
tyty
[Console Commands] Sent debug command to the game, but there was no output.
normal
that's normal
now try debug warp base
hey does anyoen know why a farm map mod wouldnt load?
my friend is using "green haven farm" and her smapi log is fine, but the farm just isnt loading? (its the regular standard farm instead of the modded one)
Create a shortcut to your steam.exe file. does it mean smapi or steam? smapi right?
srrry I forget everything lol
It replacing Standard is a config. According to the mod page, by default it overrides the Wilderness Farm
oh wait i might by standard as in vanilla forest farm
Still not Wilderness.
dunno, i don't use shortcuts, probably smapi
oh whoops
^ friend needs to pick wilderness as their go to
ill tell her to fix it and see if it works
to answer my own question: yea it's a shortcut of smapi you need to make
that worked
tyty

well i'm sure that's not good

Imma try to get the same crash with all the mods I had, my latest is with removed mods bc I was smart to think it would solve the problem 🤡
when i look into the log it says it couldnt load summer tiles or something
hoping its a somewhat easy fix
Marcy From Amphibia! 1.0.0 this mod broken
whoever made it did something very weird in the tilesheets
it's not finding a vanilla tilesheet
thank you so much
I suspect you can fix it by screenshotting the folder
and I'll tell you if there's something obvious to delete
ss my mods folder?
no inside that mod
can you open the Maps one?
delete spring_outdoorsTileSheet.png and spring_town.png
and paths.png I guess although that shouldn't be causing problems
it is possible that Vortex will put these files back; if it does, you will have to remove them again and then fight Vortex
Unfortunately I do not know how to fight Vortex
gonna load up and see if it crashes, if so i might just delete the mod
But yes, them having only spring is exactly the problem
I warned someone else about this earlier today, it's not an uncommon mistake xD
but it does sort of point towards the mod maybe not being super actively maintained, so removing it is also a decent option
dude i restarted my entire farm cuz i thought something else was the problem
it worked, thanks alot
can somebody help me? I installed the japanese buildings mod but my House have a red mark on it while my other buildings don't, same problem with elle's buildings mod.
remove the color from the paint mask at robin's
it works thanks
I heard that you can't get mods or cheats on the switch, is that true? I recently bought the game on the switch after seeing cool mods
!switchmodding
Modding on the Nintendo Switch is technically possible in a very limited capacity, but it requires jailbreaking your Switch, which is only possible on select models or by physically altering the hardware of your Switch, and can run the risk of bricking your console and/or being banned by Nintendo. Only visual texture and dialogue replacer XNB mods can be installed. Due to these limitations, we do not provide guides on how to mod the Switch and it is up to the individual if they want to take these risks.
hi, i installed the way back PT retex and none of the buildings load in? smapi says its loading in fine

@lament robin Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
so, i did try that earlier, but the only log im able to find with those instructions is from a year ago when i had sdv before then ended up resetting my laptop entirely
i could send you what it says but it's very old and it's talking about mods that aren't even on my laptop
maybe i need to reset my local files through steam?
your SMAPI-latest file should automatically update when you open stardew, you can create a new log through that file
Yeah I recommend re-installing smapi, the log data is way too old to be used
i think i may have figured it out?
my software is mac 10.12 im reading that it needs to be 10.15 to work best
ahh yeah so my stardew is on compatibility mode so the smapi version i had installed wasn't working with that version of the game
hence why it wouldn't even start up with the game at all
is there a work around for this so i can continue using mods even though my laptop is too old to update to a newer software?

In some rare cases, you may need to use the compatibility branch in order to play Stardew Valley, but SMAPI does not run with the compatibility branch. See here for more information on why it happens and how to solve it: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#SMAPI_doesn.27t_work_with_the_compatibility_branch
For help or more information, ask in #archived-modded-support
I don't think SMAPI/mods work at all w compatibility mode :/
It's just not possible to have compat w the new and old NET frameworks so the old one had to be let go
yeahh. i just tried to install a software upgrade and wasn't able to, tried installing the net 5.0 or later alone and wasn't able to... i guess i just need a new laptop 😬 can't pay $1-2k right now for stardew haha
thanks for the help regardless
just found out that it's only my farm that won't load the retexture? i dont have any mods that significantly change my farm so i dont know why it's doing that 
could a mod be causing my game to freeze? happens around 7pm daily i end up having to quick the game and lose my progress. i play on steamdeck btw
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
does wayback PT retexture the farm buildings?
do you have Multiple Spouses?
i don't really know how to check that as the nexus page doesn't say, but the asset photos have of some things included in the farm like the greenhouse and silo
okay yeah now looking at it the mod might not be for the farm. literally just spent 5 hours trying to figure this out for it to not be broken 
I didn't read too far so this must have already been mentioned or not needed at all lol, I'd say there is technically a way to run Smapi if your the only version your game can run on is Compat mode.
Which is reverting back to 1.5.4 and using the smapi installer for that. Buuut I'm not sure if my little knowledge can apply to you since you're on Mac..
eh
I don't even think I've seen people suggest that solution frequently these days, is that still viable? 
i mean, it works, but you're missing out on a lot
and it's even harder to figure out which mods work on that combo, as compared to, say, Android's Stardew 1.4
That's true, but it's better than nothing I guess lol. They can atleast use retextures? 
(without Xnb)
and it's gonna be even more of an issue when 1.6 releases
Welllll..
I mean maybe by then they could get another setup? 
I don't think I've heard of an ETA on that just yet.
when I die (I'm not sure if it also happens in the regular mines since I never die there) my screen gets stuck on a black screen when it should trigger a cutscene of me going to harvey. This has been happening so many times and I've lost many valuable items from my skull cavern run. I don't know what the problem is :< I am using SMAPI and a bunch of mods so maybe? just maybe one of them is the problem? I have updated my mods but still my games freezes on a black screen after I die

I updated the mods but it still says they need updating and etc in suggested fixes.
There's also the issue of AHM name of you pack and forage settings board house and bus stopexpansion and champagne wishes even tho it is installed properly. AHM name of you is animal husbandry mod but idk why its weird like that.
It's likely old files also causing issues because i didnt re download everything as i like my sanity or what little of it remains.
If any of this is user error and im dum u can tell me i won't cry, much.

I am using stardrop as my mod manager with the NXM proxy.
If i fall asleep pinging is ok.
Champagne Wishes 1.0.6 because it requires mods which aren't installed (ppja.artisanvalleymachinegoods) champagne wishes needs the artisan valley mod (probably specifically the json assets version)
that is installed
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1926 uh this one.
Forage Settings Boarding House 5.0.0 because it requires mods which aren't installed (kildarien.farmertoflorist) this needs the json assets version of farmer to florist
ohh
i don't see it installed, where should it be loading from?
I re dragged it and it appears it wasnt installed. probally unselected it by accident
Seasonal Anime Portraits 2.4.3 because it requires mods which aren't installed (Tanpoponoko.SeasonalOutfits) this mod (seasonal villager outfits) isn't available anymore
that's about for the mods not loading, not sure if there is an updated version of the snake mod but you can check at https://smapi.io/mods
that isnt to much of a problem.. i can drag and override it and usually end up doing that anyway as i like to mix and match portrait mods
cause i like my pretty characters who are great friends. and the thing is snake is listed as compatible in the mod compat checker. i take it thats wrong?
Failed to load: C:\Users\PC\AppData\Roaming\Stardrop\Data\Selected Mods\[CM] Tractor Sounds\tractor.wav i guess this is a corrupt mod installation and needs a reinstall
oh that one is funky
yeah, it looks like it's listed as compatible. it's released in 2020 so i guess it's wrong
fair enough
the tractor sounds thing is funky as it always has been super touchy and whatnot. ill probally install that one by hand

I have 0 idea what this is tho. like it shows up in the mod loader but the file itself is weird.
looks like a template file for mod makers
ah ok
the portrait one is fine they'll be weird anyway and need to be done manually (fun) but otherwise i think i got rid of all issues
there are issues with older parts of mods though, like + TMX Immersive Farm 2 Remastered 1.12.1 isn't a thing anymore i'm pretty sure
ah
i can rip out all of immersive farm 2 and reinstall to check probally. if it doesnt get reinstalled, not needed.
some other mods have the same issue. difficult to find all problems though. i would just delete and reinstall everything
in that case i'd rather not even play the game... because 338 mods including some which were from super hard to acces japanese/chinnese websites.... ooooh boy
lunna, boarding house and probably mister ginger have that problem at least
I see
Ah boy...
I'll have to try and trim my mods down because I can probably keep track of like 30 before my mind blanks and resets
That being said thank you
no problem. it's some work but if you start from scratch you'll probably avoid problems later on. and most likely you don't have to update the mods as long as you don't update the game
well steam doesnt have an update blocker and if i play it without steam it'd probally trigger some anti piracy thing or whatnot.
atleast thats how alot of games ive played went do correct me if thats wrong
you can safely play stardew without steam
i've done it, i've actually copy-pasted my stardew to a different spot on my computer before to keep playing an old version for a bit around update day
Ah ok. I know other games i don't want to update like gta 5 cause LSPDFR or i think even terraria gets mad if you dont use steam. but perfect
Hello, could someone please help??
I'm having issues with co-op working, when I click play in co-op the game fully crashes. The game fully closes, smapi log doesn't show any crashes & my mods are up to date as far as I am aware.

good lord
ikr
Check if these are actually up to date:
"EvenMoreExpandedWoods 1.2.0: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2364
(you have 1.0.0)"
"MARGO :: Modular Gameplay Overhaul 2.0.3: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/14470
(you have 2.0.1)"
Nope
NREE, I can already tell you updating MARGO to 2.0.4 will fix that
could you please explain what mismatched manifest versions are?
Locke, haven't looked at your log but can you try installing Warp Snitch?
I hope so 🙏
Sometimes the manifest.json file says 'version 1.2' for example, even though you downloaded version 1.3; it just means the mod creator forgot to update the number, so that it won't tell you to update
when we try to update it it isnt registering as an update, even though the latest file is downloaded from nexus
As in you want me to try installing that ?
I tried the EMEW before and the dl was still not updated so I waited a whole night hoping that it would be by now
Just start with Margo then, as the others also suggested
yep yep
That said, I don't think EMEW will be officially updated, and idk if there's an unofficial update or not
Lemme look
That'd be a great deal of help, thank you!
AH, I believe Even More Secret Woods and Stardew Expanded are no longer compatible, if the info I've found is correct
I believe we must have mismatched manifest versions as everything is up to date but we can @cunning burrow
*can't seem to load up the game at all
Hmmmm, I see. I'll go check the game up first with EMEW and another without. I'll come back here to report if anything changes or if the issue is fixed
will try that now
One more question, it is normal that I have to wait for at least 5 mins till the game actually starts right? Because of the all the mods I have in?
It can take a while, depending on how much memory you have, and how compatible the mods are. Seeing as you have so many errors, its hard to tell at the moment 😂
Just definitely make sure to update margo
okay that makes sense. Than you!
yup! Trying it out now
we've had this issue for weeks and we just cant seem to find a solution for it 😦
I'm not an expert w/ modding, so all I can really ask at this point is whether you've tried uninstalling and reinstalling things?
Either mods, mods and smapi, or even mods, smapi, and stardew?
Okay; so it helped, and it immediately said 'trying to tell stardew there are no unmet needs'
The pond had green algae, so I think I need to figure out exactly which mod makes green algae spawn in unused fish ponds?
Bc when I emptied the pond, smapi stopped screaming at me
Margo. Of course.
I understand and appreciate you trying to help too, unfortunately we did all of those yeah, do you anyone know who we might be able to ask for help?
If you ever see Agent Lyoko on, they might be able to help
(not pinging because I'm not sure about ping etiquette here 😂)
Thank you I shall keep an eye out and yeah I understand that 🙂
good luck!
and if you do figure it out, let me know? welcome to ping me; I love a good learning opportunity 
thank you and sure 🙂 as soon as we have a solution/fix 😊
no i don’t. sorry only saw this message now

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

theres nothing wrong with my log

okay, we need their log too
okay hold on
Smapi says there are 8 mods to be updated; try that, and make sure you and your friend have the same versions
i suspect that the issue is less mod updates and more mismatched mods
the reliable crashes indicate they're probably hitting modded NPCs or locations that don't exist for them
In that case, try this
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6609
It'll tell you which mods are mismatched when they join your game; both ones you have, those they don't, as well as mismatched version numbers
@cunning burrow @gaunt gust I was able to play a whole day without crying of a crash so I guess the margo update worked, I also deleted the out of date EMEW so it doesn't cause trouble when I actually try out the deep woods. Thank you guys for the help!
Mind sending me a recent log anyway? c:

my game keeps freezing around 7pm each in-game day usually when i’m fishing or opening chests but sometimes randomly. it lags for a sec then the screen flashes black and then i stay frozen on that screen and sometimes it flickers. i end up having to force close the game each time and lose my progress rip. i play on steamdeck btw

hallu!
wanted to ask about june the npc from ridgeside; he was added on the latest update and i wanted to change his portrait of orangepie's but i couldn't make it work
send help plss
im def not able to help, but for people that can, i think they would want yo know if you could you elaborate on how you "couldnt make it work" ? @idle sparrow
i can’t find the options menu (i’m using a steamdeck so linux)
Like so
- Downloaded the new update of Ridgeside that already includes June the NPC + also downloaded the June portrait made by OrangePie
- Assuming that it worked like Stardew Vanilla, I just replaced the Ridgeside files with the June portrait files
didn't work
can you show a screenshot of how you have the portrait installed?
please does anyone know where to find smapi logs on a steamdeck??
/home/deck/.config/StardewValley/ErrorLogs
i don’t have a .config file when i click into deck
files/folders starting with a . are usually hidden by default on Linux
actually i don’t even have a deck file, like i can click deck but it just brings me to home
ahhh found it
had to show hidden folders

any ideas on what might be causing my game to freeze every time?
how do i remove xnb mods that never actually showed up in my game or replaced anything? do i really have to reset my game files?
pretty much
Hi there, I have the always raining in the valley mod, but only sterling shows up
unless you kept backups of those files
I had to google that i wasn’t crazy after he kept talking about his cousins who was nowhere to be seen😀
i didn’t even know xnb files were bad i’m only learning that now. how do i reset game files on a steamdeck tho also will that delete my saves? i got a character portrait changer thing that had xnb files but the portraits never changed in game
probably similar to how you do it on a PC, go into game properties and look for it
save files are stored separetely, they won't be touched
is my smapi log ok? i didn’t see anything that looked strange but idk
not enough time to look at people's logs right now
oh ok well i should mention that my game crashes occurred before i added any xnb mods so it’s not the cause
hey guys, I got a question. I'm having a hard time with mods that change the sprite and portrait of the character. Any solutions? I:e; things like the seasonal sprites
like which ones, for example? and having a hard time, how? are they not working?
ok initially i thought i had an issue with my mods, so for some reason when i verified my game files on steam it like disabled my mods i think so when i launched the game again so i thought i’d play with no mods but my game froze and my screen is black but i can still here my character move around. is this a mod problem or nah?
if you open stardew vanilla, does the same problem happen?
not smapi, but actual stardew
stardew vanilla?
i just press the big launch button on steam idk
clear your launch options and open the game, see if it happens again
? how do i do that?
also, if you're trying to play a previous modded save with no mods, that could cause issues, so it could be that
!launchoptions
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
well i’ve had this problem since i started playing stardew valley like 2 days ago. i loaded up the game for the first time with a few mods and it froze and i had to force quit. it’s happened multiple times since
i’m not using windows, linux on a steamdeck
oh mb i didn't backread
i don't know how to help you, then. not sure how steamdecks work
it’s linux, i already submitted a smapi log thing and it seems fine idk tho nobody checked it
!log please
@dire fractal Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
also any idea why my mods are gone? like when i load up sdv they’re just not there anymore or the smapi log stuff at the beginning? all i did was verify some game files
of the mods you have, the only ones i could think of that may cause lag/freezes are get glam (outdated) and visible fish. not sure why your mods are gone now tho, you can try to install smapi again and see if that works
I think SMAPI installer on Linux replaces the game executable, so you’ll have to reinstall SMAPI now
yeah i removed visible fish, maybe i’ll remove get glam then
oh rip ok that was kind of painful to do. do i have to delete my old smapi files or just click the install file that i already have?
Just install again
even with no mods currently my game still froze
i have actually not been able to even play sdv ever without freezing it’s so sad might have to give up on this game 😭
oh uh one sec
like even before you started modding...?
does get glam even work anymore??
sort of kind of not really
I think someone made an unofficial update, but idk if that ones has bugs too
i never played without mods, i added mods straight away
Hey guys, I'm trying to use Smapi on android, it comes up with these 2 pop ups when I try to install and give permissions (I did give the app said permissions) but it still isn't working, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game and Smapi but I still can't figure it out, would anyone be able to explain in case I did something wrong?
!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.

When there is one, the instructions here will be updated: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Android
no smapi android
Oh I didn't realise, I'm a bit behind 😂 cheers guys 
"since i started playing stardew valley" i don't think it's a game problem then if you never launched vanilla at all before lol
am i supposed to?
well the game itself isn't the problem since tons of people play it successfully on steamdeck with/without mods
so something somewhere is wonky when you tried to do mod installs
yeah ik it’s gotta be the mods. atm i’m playing a new test game with no mods and i’ll gradually add mods a few at a time to see which one freezes my game
so you got vanilla to launch and run ok?
well i wouldn’t call it vanilla it still has smapi. i did verify my game files and that got rid of smapi and all my mods but my game still froze
https://smapi.io/log/cdf86ddde118405eb4ad81fa775dda61 here is my log if anyone can help me (replying to the issue)

idk someone asked my to get vanilla to work but i’m on linux so no idea how to do that
they also told you to delete your launch options so that you can launch stardew without smapi
^^
yeah but they didn’t tell me how cuz they didn’t know how to for linux. idk either
yes initially then i re installed smapi
did you launch the game before you re-installed smapi
yes
and it was working fine?
froze
ok then the solution is not to install smapi before you can get the vanilla game working o.o
within like 1 in game day
do you currently have smapi installed
yes i reinstalled it and currently am playing a new save to see if it breaks with just smapi no other mods
if it is freezing without smapi then it is not a good idea to just keep throwing smapi on it
i still had mods in my mod folder just smapi was removed cuz apparently linux removes smapi when i verify game files
if you're not launching smapi then it's not launching mods and you could've just ignored them
if you have smapi installed now uninstall it using the instructions https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Steam_Deck#Uninstall
ahh ok well it still froze so ig something is wrong with vanilla
are you launching it with smapi or not?? do you have the console
can you get us a log after the glitch happens? this log can't tell us much because we need to see what SMAPI says when you get the black screen. don't feel like you need to play a whole day and ruin progress - just hop in a game and go die in the skull caverns and if it glitches, give us that log 🙂
ok so i launched without smapi and it froze, now i launched with just smapi no freezing yet but it’s only been 1 in game day
wdym by console
the smapi console
this is what happened :<
ok 1) make sure you've totally uninstalled smapi 2) make sure your launch options on steam for the game are clear and 3) launch stardew valley with smapi uninstalled which you will be able to tell from the lack of smapi console popping up
send that log lol
ok i will try that now

Did they mod the game without checking if vanilla runs fine first?
which ig doubles as the uninstaller lol
yes rookie mistake 😭
It's another problem if even vanilla it's not useable lol.
another thing actually i probs should mention. i initially played sdv 2 yrs ago on pc with a few of the same mods i have now. it was all fine. quit after a few days of playing. got sdv on steamdeck the other day and started off on my old save. could that be an issue?
i did launch that game vanilla
So you launched a modded save in vanilla?
yes…

i actually don’t know what i was thinking
What mods did you have?
can you go to the hospital normally? like can you just walk in or does something like this happen then too
Expansions? Or something small?
launch vanilla and make a new save to see if the game actually just works
no expansions
ok
So what, retextures?
the heck is this "Max?" command lol i have no idea
I can walk inside the hospital, talk to harvey, maru, buy tonics but whenever I die I just get stuck on a black screen?
my farmer name
with a question mark?
it's the dialogue right? I think
oh wait probably
I don't know :<
idk i've never died lol
i believe that is the death dialogue
but to check - your name doesn't have a ? in it
maybe save backup being wonky? i can't think of that many mods on this admittedly small list
me neither - i'm stumped
my farmer name is "Min/Max" just because I honestly didn't think I'd make it this far and be able to pull it off
I think that could be a problem?
this was just gonna be another save I would just delete and keep restarting if I didn't get 200 potatoes by the end of spring :<
huh i actually don't know if special characters inside of a farmer name is problematic but i wanna say no?? i don't believe i've seen it yet
I don't know why Min isn't in the "command"
i haven't seen it but if something else is wrong it might contribute?
that is absolutely your problem lol
oh good atra's here
are you asking me or someone else?
you
omg went to make a new vanilla account and it just froze on the character creation screen
ok my game is broke
did you uninstall smapi successfully and completely
yep
slash do you have the console window popping up when you launch the game
no
did you verify your game files after uninstalling smapi
no
try that
ok
what does verify files do? is there a way to reinstall my game to fix all the files? at this point idc about my save files that much i just wanna be able to play the game
it says 1 file failed to verify but it was reacquired is that normal?
as for the retextures i use, earthy something, medieval buildings, foliage redone, more grass
a few furniture changes
uhhh the game is not launching
i’m not seeing anything about launch options in the game properties
it like failed to launch it just brought me back to the play sdv screen on steam
jesus what did i do
!launchoptions
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
use that except like don't add anything delete everything
Hello there, sorry if I'm interrupting but I have a coop related problem with my mods, and I was wondering if I it's okay to ask someone here for help ?
i’m not on windows and what exactly am i deleting. i found the launch options in the game properties btw but idk what to add. should i be playing this as a non steam game or?
is there any text in the box for launch options
if there is get rid of it
steam should still look like steam i think
nope nothing
the box i x'd out is blank?
yep it always was i think
so if you launch that via steam now what happens
like press the green play button? i’m not on the steam app i’m in the gaming mode in steam deck but it’s still steam i think
i’ll see if it wants to launch now
i don't know what gaming mode is but try it from the steam app maybe
ok i’ll try it in a sec if this doesn’t launch. which it doesn’t look like it will
should i play using the stardew valley modding api instead?
Again sorry to interrupt, but I have a problem with a coop where my friend has the exact same mods as me but for some reason they can't pick up any items on the ground and sleeping doesn't progress the game to the next day, it's just stuck on "Waiting for players 2/2" does anyone know why that could happen?
so from the steam app on desktop mode it launched. gonna see if vanilla works on this save without freezing
your modded save? don't run a modded save in vanilla lol
no, new save
!log for troubleshooting multiplayer you need to post logs from all players involved
@magic crow Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
oh alright! Thanks holythesea, I'll do that when I can get the log of the other player
im not sure what this means
Okay I got it, it looks like this:

hey the game just froze in vanilla mode on the actuall steam app. i think my game is literally f*cked
So if the smopi mods don't work on Android stardew 1.5.6 then is there any way to get a previous version of stardew on Android that will run mods?
Been looking for some related information but so far no luck
No
First, holy, I approve of the patience given what I backread
Second, What do you mean by it's freezing, Sylviane?
so willy is glitched for me, he isnt anywhere in town that i can see on the map and i need to give him things
no but i am now invisible in the shop
and willy still isnt there
nvm fixed invisible lol
fine, then exit the shop and debug wctm Willy
Poor Willy's gonna not be able to move the rest of the day, but he should appear
otherwise something's bugging his sprites away
Ok thanks, yeah he was appearing for a while then just kind of stopped one day
Hii.. I'm trying to set up a mod group folder. Can't seem to find the steam.exe file 😕
Where would it be maybe?
Ok. Thank you kindly.
I don't see the exe in my game folder w all the other stuff
(Started w/ the first option for Windows before I noticed the specific Steam instructions.) The smapi.exe one is there. But I play thru Steam so .. 🤷 however, if it's only important for the achievements then I that doesn't matter to me at all.
Just wanna have a modded test save
And/or know where this file is !
i see all these other .names
Hi. Can someone help me with SVE? I have the expanded map but I haven't gotten the key form Marlon, the nexus points, or Lance.
could it be this..?? i don't see ".exe"
sorry i am not very computer literate
This is what i click to start my game w SMAPI.
the mod groups instructions say it should be in the games folder :t
If I already started my world can I add mods to it?
Thank u
I fixed it lol thanks anyways
that opens it via steam
you'd have to make a normal shortcut for it if you need a normal one
Hi Pillow!
The instructions say to find the Steam exe in game folder. But it's not there.. what do you mean?
It's like 3 messages up but this is where I'm at
the steam.exe is steam
not sdv
🤨
Not trying to be obtuse. But i dont understand
Any of the Steam files in the ss?
I see two dlls
Not gonna be a text doc I'm p sure
(I can read that it says DLL, but idk what that means js. Those letters are not EXE 🙃)
Do you mean.. go back to the Steam folder?
I don't see it there either
Ok. The Steam app.
.. the right click menu went away when i SS'd it. but there's no make a shortcut option
OH wait.. Open File ... ahhh yeah ok
Ok, I made a Steam (2). does that one go in the games folder with the new mod group folder I made?
what are you even doing
modgroups !
why do you have a Steam (2) then
reality did not align exactly with the instructions so it confused me terribly
i guess b/c i have a shortcut made already it seems
in the Roaming.. folder
C:\Users\CHOOP\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Steam <- there
just open Steam -> Add game -> Non-Steam game -> StardewModdingAPI.exe -> modify launch arguments to do the mod group thing
windows doesn't copy executables to the start menu folder
open file location twice
right?
no. ugh.
i click Open file location but it doesn't give me more than one Steam folder window
the lowercase steam is the wrong thing. plz ignore. i will close.
ignore all Pillow's instructions and try mine, please
OK
(no hard feelings Pillow)
k
dw
I was just answersing the thing abt steam.exe, wasn't paying too much attention to the main issue (probably should've)
omg. it's been so long. i don't really remember doing any of this.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods (TEST Save)" %command% <-- put this in the launch options then ?
no
eh let me launch my PC
AHH sorry
i'm on the last step. not sure what that means if not the launch options thing
it means exactly that, but you're definitely putting a wrong value there
Ah. I see. I was referring back to the wiki. i guess i'll just forget that for now
so, this is the value i have for "target":
"C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" --mods-path "Mods - MP"
(the folder is called "Mods - MP")
you can;t call it whatever you want?
whatever you call the folder, has to go into the target too
oh.. you mean the order is wrong make it like yours
i also have one that goes to the default Mods folder, which is like this
"C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe"
"C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" --mods-path "Mods (TEST Save)"
so you literally append a --mods-path "Whatever"
i don't like putting Steam in Program Files, because Program Files requires special permissions to access nowadays, which may or may not make modding (any game, not just Stardew) harder
and some old games also like to store stuff in their folder
https://smapi.io/log/f49a6b7db0b641d293a352df2275164e
I dont understand whats wrong? I've made sure I have the latest version of everything

Suggested fixes: Pytk isn't compatible with newer SMAPI performance optimizations, consider removing it, One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them
Ah. i see.
so now i'll need to move that folder to the place I just told Steam to launch from?
why you have Pytk tho?
i mean, yes, your mod group has to be next to the original Mods folder.
Hey if any has the time I need help with portraits mods
idk, some mod needed it
oh ok, thank you, ill try that
Ok.. and for me, that's in the Programs 86 place 
correct
i mean, if you are already familiar with installing mods manually, it's not any different?
you just put mods into a different folder, NEXT to the Mods folder
I'm doing the mod groups thing b/c it takes Forever to move a pile of mod folders between places on my computer. with the second Mods TEST save folder I'm hoping to not go through that bs
why are you moving the mod folders?
so to me, it looks like i have two different paths to different places and that is puzzling me
you have two mod folders, so you have a path to the other?
huh??
lemme try to explain better. because I'm not understand what either of you are saying now 😵💫
you just put the mods in the other folder for that group
i think you misunderstand mod groups
very possible!
with mod groups, you literally have... separate Mods folders for separate use cases.

The problem seems to be with stardew valley expanded.. :/
Log Info: SMAPI 3.18.2 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Microsoft Windows 10 Home, with 67 C# mods and 70 content packs.
Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them
you don't mix and match
modgroups gives you two mods folders.. the regular "Mods" and the new "Mods TEST Save"
yes, check. same page there.
what is the purpose of the second mod group in your case?
the moving mods thing referred to Not having a second mods folder.. which would mean moving stuff out to load a much lighter test save
is it "a mod group where i add new mods to see if they don't break my shit, before i move them to the actual folder"?
the second one is the modgroups one.. ? for a simpler faster loading test save to not mess up my main game/save
well, then just put all your normal mods in the "Mods" folder, and then also put some of those mods in the "Mods TEST Save" folder
it's for making mods.. rn my mods are little things that don't change too much. but it's still annoying to load into my main save to test them
yes, that's the plan
so i'm not sure what don't you understand, it seems you're not confused at all
😅 what i'm stuck on are the two diff launch path things. and the reg Mods folder not being next to the new TEST mods folder

i don't think they're in the same place
because.. reg one is in Programs x86 and new one is in ... steamapps
the new one does not have the Program x86 in it
how does it not
the path you told me to put for launch arguments #archived-modded-support message
(did you copy Shockah's path)
yes
then don't
that is shockah's
it was an example
was i no.. oh. agh
not yours
everything is very Literal for me when trying to do this computer stuff
Ok, i'll fix that
I downloaded some new mods and the whole game is crashing.. idk what to do :/

update all your mods Sweetish
Especially Content Patcher. why you have so old
we're on 1.29 now
I litrally updated everything, yesterday
mm.. no, not according to SMAPI
No you did not.
Content patcher is broken because it is too old
Therefore it is not loading stuff
bro tf is happening in here
the log doesn't even say there's an update for Content Patcher, though. weird. at least not at the top. i guess the log parser only looks for purple Alert logs
yeah, i see that now. retrospect.
some of my confusion is justified xD
Just joined it’s there’s a fight in the chat 😭 I think
No.. no fights here
there's no fight???
Nope
We're simply stating what the log says
Oh ok lol sorry tired asf
while my "." may sound aggressive, it's just what i do when all i want to do is quote my message lol
because a message is required
(i didn;t sense any animosity. i'm just reflecting a little about the point i got lost lol)
Also 1 day I should bring up the fact that that error message about stardew Valley expanded. Being installed incorrectly is "Stadew"
boston
I'm sorry to whoever reads logs and sees that now, but it's bugged me a while XD
so does anyone know how to do portraits
how to make them?
No like um it’s hard to explain I try and download them but can’t and tbh i have no clue
it's hard to help if you can't explain
anyway, i hope the mod groups work for you Ch0opera, i'm going to bed
Like I just can’t download them at all I can download the mod add it to my mod file and nothing changes
well, see, that message itself is confusing
in one message you just said you both can and cannot download them
No I meant like use them I can download them but it doesn’t change the portraits
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
(Shockah go to sleep)
gnight. thanks for help!
Welp if anyone can help it be greatly appreciated
#archived-modded-support message < Lyoko, asking you for a log
U know how to get that on deck
Ur log
I don't know anything about steamdeck sorry.
I don’t think anyone does right now 😭 cheers tho
Does that contact patcher thing work still
there should be instructions for steam deck on the site
it just defaults to Windows i think
oh. nvm
not linux?
Ah ok tbh I’m just confused on how to change the portraits to the ones I downloaded I’ve got mods already just can’t do that
tbh Linux is a learning curve
I’m trying I’m trying 😭
(do the Linux instructions if it's not clear already)
And Arch has one of the strongest "read the manual" cultures
I have but trying to share it on here
once you put the error report in the log parser you just share the url link here
Can’t share the url since it’s on the steam deck and I’m talking on phone rn
oh. sorry, i'm *not familiar w how that all works
(all the steam deck linux log getting happens on the little handheld device?)
Srry about this give me a min
So, when I want to play with the "Mod (TEST) Save" do i need to open up the Steam app and click the new game file I made there?
for reg Mods/stardew I have a chicken on my desktop that opens w SMAPI. (can i get another one for the 2nd save/mods folder?)
or do this i guess :/ let's see how i can misinterpret these instructions now haha
aha, nope, that was seamless.
when i place an object on a table, it disappears from the table. still says its there but u cant see it
plz @ me
Mm.. log ?
Is it vanilla objects?
Do you have any of those table settings/placement mods?
Yeah the issue here is that you're going To need to transmit the log somehow from the steam deck
Apologies, had to walk away for a moment
yes its vanilla objects
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
Can’t figure it at all on the deck
