You'll have to go into your Program Files directory and delete the empty Steam folder we made

[torn bear]

im kinda lost

[fast stream]

How are you lost?

[torn bear]

i dont understand the steps

i reinstalled steam and now what

[fast stream]

First log into your account again

[torn bear]

i did

[fast stream]

Go into settings

[torn bear]

ya

[fast stream]

Do you see the storage tab?

At the side

[torn bear]

yea

[fast stream]

Click that

[torn bear]

and

[fast stream]

And you want to move your games to a different drive right?

[torn bear]

yeah

C drive

x86

[fast stream]

Okay what drive does it say your games are currently on?

[torn bear]

the one i want

[fast stream]

ok

At storage it should show your drives

Do you have the C drive on there?

[fast stream]

Look at your other drives

[torn bear]

i got only C drive

[fast stream]

Do you not have any games downloaded?

[torn bear]

yup

[stark horizon]

Back out of that and just verify game files

That will move everything into the new location

[torn bear]

sure

i verify them?

[stark horizon]

Yep

[torn bear]

NOOOOOOOOO

I GOTTA REINSTALL THEM :C

RAAAAAAAAAAAA

so i reinstall them :c/?

[stark horizon]

Yes

[torn bear]

finee

[fast stream]

I thought you had a totally other problem

At least it’s figured out

[torn bear]

ig

its taking forever to download :c

[stark horizon]

For context, Blender, Omar was running Steam from the downloads folder and wants to mod SDV.

(ok for real now, I'm out)

[fast stream]

Ah

Okay thanks

[torn bear]

OH WOW

my WIFI IS GOING SOOOO WELL

FOR THE FIRST TIME WHATTT

thats how it should be?

[fast stream]

Yeah

👍

[torn bear]

for some reason i got

less storage

on my pc when i should have wayyyyy more

wtf

@stark horizon

hmm?

[fast stream]

Over here it says you have 15GB though?

[torn bear]

yeha

i gotta have over a 100

[fast stream]

So nothing changed?

[torn bear]

cause i gotta reinstall all the games

no idea

its as if the game is still installed but isnt wtf

@stark horizon

[fast stream]

You shouldn’t ping them!

[torn bear]

but

[fast stream]

They’ll see your message later

[stark horizon]

Because you also have the games installed in your downloads folder. That's where all your storage is locked up

[torn bear]

soo what do i do

[stark horizon]

Move them from the old location to the new one

[torn bear]

i gotta uninstall all this?

and reinstall

??

im confused

[stark horizon]

Not uninstall. MOVE

[torn bear]

Move how?

[stark horizon]

Drag and drop

[torn bear]

where

and what

so what do i do with the ones i installed now

[stark horizon]

Take your steamapps folder from inside the downloads folder and now place it inside the Steam folder in Program Files (x86)

Remember when you moved it before? On your C drive? Is that file still there?

[torn bear]

yeah lemme see

the steamapps?

[stark horizon]

Yeah - do you still have that in your main C drive directory?

[torn bear]

yeah

[stark horizon]

Which one has more stuff inside it? That one or the one inside your downloads folder?

[torn bear]

the one in the C drive

[stark horizon]

OK. Move that one to inside the Steam Folder in Program Files (x86)

[torn bear]

sure

i threw it iinto Program files x86

and it aint there now

[stark horizon]

You didn't put it in the Steam folder??????

Ok, seriously, I'm parked on the side of the road. I have to go.

[torn bear]

dude

i had to do it to x86

then to steam

i lost it

[fast stream]

Dedication

[torn bear]

so what now blender

do i reinstall? all the games

[fast stream]

So first of all you put it into the wrong folder

😭

[torn bear]

its not there dude

and plus i had to

so that than i could mpove it from x86 to steam :c

wHAT DO I DOOOOOOOOOM :CCCCCCCC

do i reinstall the games and reove the from installed apps?

@fast stream

[fast stream]

Okay check at least if your problem is solved or not

Does it still show your missing storage?

[torn bear]

i cant find steamapps now

yeah

it still shows 14gb

WHEN I TRY TO UNINSTALL THE GAMES

THEY WONT

from SETTINGSSSS

[fast stream]

A easy way to find steam apps

Is to go into your settings > storage > press the three dots at the top

Then browse folder

[torn bear]

Yes Ik but its as if i got 2 steams man

i got 2 steamapps

one shows i have the game installed

one shows not

[fast stream]

can you find them both?

[torn bear]

in the settings the game is installed and so its displaying i have 14gb

and when i try to uninstall it wont

[torn bear]

only 1

the one i had to put into x86 steam no

i threw it into x86 now idk

[fast stream]

Do you possibly have them on different accounts?

[torn bear]

i only have one steam account

thats the new one

other one is lost

but its same steam account

it wont uninstall now istggg

HELPPP

im gonna cry

like i dumped it to Program Files x86 and it aint there now man

where tf did it go

[fast stream]

Have you tried ctrl z to undo the drag and drop?

[torn bear]

lemme try

it did nothing

do i like uninstall all the steams or smtg

idk

[scarlet quail]

Where are your quotes

[torn bear]

wdym

[scarlet quail]

This happens most times when steam launch options didn't include the quotes

[torn bear]

what r the quotes

[scarlet quail]

!launchoptions

[robust bison]

""

[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

[torn bear]

ill just uninstall all the steams on my pc and retry

bro what

i iuninstalled steam

and the games r still like on my pc man

but they would not launch

[scarlet quail]

I still don't know why you're A) running steam from downloads and B ) showing flight simulator instead of SDV

[fast stream]

Yeah I’ve never heard of anyone doing that tbh

[torn bear]

yeah but it wont unisntall

i lost the steamapps

i downloaded second steam

added my acc

now as if i have the games installed but not at the same time

Help:c

there even is no uninstall

[fast stream]

💀

I’ve honestly never heard of this situation

[torn bear]

idk what to do man

imma cry:c

from tryna install a mod

to destroying a whole platform

like i cant find steamapps man

do i restart my pc? idk

[fast stream]

I don’t think restarting will do anything

[torn bear]

man

MAN

IDKKKKKKKKKK

IM GONNA KILL MY SELF

i CANT UNINSTALL

I CANT INSTALL

I CANT DO CRAP

[fast stream]

You should wait for help 👍

[torn bear]

idk WHO

:C

NO ONE CAN HELP ME NOW :C

[fast stream]

Lyoko should be able to help when he’s on again ig

[torn bear]

i dont think so

cause i lost the file

completley

[fast stream]

I don’t even think this is a stardew problem so probably the wrong channel at this point

[torn bear]

idkkk :c

when will she be back i gotta go to bed :c

[vestal dust]

first, Omar. Calm down a bit. It's a video game. The screaming and over the top threats to yourself are not going to help.

[torn bear]

:c

i lost crap man

[vestal dust]

second. All of your pictures are pointing at C:/downloads.

[vestal dust]

This is ... not a good folder to be in.

[torn bear]

it says its downloaded

but its not..

i cant even uninstall the games man

[vestal dust]

3/4ths of that is because of HOW you're attempting to use windows.

[torn bear]

she told me to move my old steamapps from C drive to Steam which is located in Program Files x86 so i did, i dragged the Steamapps from C; to Program Files x86 and i lost it.

now storage is low cause the pc says the games are still downloaded, i cant uninstall them and not even steam.

[vestal dust]

your uninstaller is pointing to a place that the games aren't anymore, because the files moved.

[torn bear]

so what do i do

am i stuck in a permanent situation??

[vestal dust]

no.

[torn bear]

...

when i try to uninstall

[vestal dust]

again, you moved files.

[torn bear]

so what do i do

i cant find steamapps

[vestal dust]

You dragged a file folder called "steamapps" from one folder to another, correct?

[torn bear]

i put it into Program Files x86 so that i could then move it to steam

and when i went there

it was no longer seen

[vestal dust]

So, here's what we're going to do.

[torn bear]

Im all ears

[vestal dust]

I'm going to go through a series of steps and questions with you, okay?
each step is going to be very very small.

[torn bear]

Sure

[vestal dust]

don't do ANYTHING that I don't ask for until I ask for it, okay?

[torn bear]

Alright

[vestal dust]

even if you think you know what's coming next.

First. Press the windows key and the letter E at the same time.

[torn bear]

sure

[vestal dust]

It will open a menu with several folders and things in it.

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

On the left side, there will be the words "This PC"

see it?

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

left click on it once.

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

the right pane will change, and you'll have a list of folders. But on the bottom, it'll say "devices and drives"

what is listed there?

[torn bear]

wdym?

[vestal dust]

In my example, I have four drives.

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

You have only the one in yours, is that correct?

[torn bear]

Yes

C drive

[vestal dust]

good! Double click it to open it.

[torn bear]

alr

now

[vestal dust]

now, near the top, you should have a search bar.

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

in that bar, type "steam apps"

[torn bear]

alr

[fast stream]

Damn

[vestal dust]

sorry, "steamapps" no space. I

[vestal dust]

Good!

[torn bear]

thats the one

[vestal dust]

Now, right click on that folder.

[torn bear]

which i dont need

i need the one which i lost

[vestal dust]

's okay.

[torn bear]

thats the one where i installed steam for the second time

[vestal dust]

that's the only one that showed up.

right click it anyway.

[torn bear]

sure

[torn bear]

idk where the other is, inside it was a mess however this is neat

[vestal dust]

your computer is likely to still be searching. so we're going to let it search. But in the meantime in the right click menu, we're going to click the option near the bottom that says "open containing folder"

[torn bear]

i dont have open containing folder

[vestal dust]

what do you see?

[vestal dust]

okay. in yours, it's the fourth one down, "Open Folder Location"

[torn bear]

sure

alr

[vestal dust]

here, we are looking for two different things.

[torn bear]

sooo

[vestal dust]

first is that top bar that you sent a picture of. It means we're working directly off of the C drive, instead of out of the standard installation directory. Which is fine, we just need to know where we are.

[torn bear]

I lost the original steamapps file tho....

[vestal dust]

's okay. We're so not done yet.

[torn bear]

alr

[vestal dust]

the second thing we want to verify. In the folder that's open, do you have a file called steam.exe?

[torn bear]

in that steamapps?

[vestal dust]

yes.

[torn bear]

nope

[vestal dust]

scroll down further. it'll be a file, not a folder.

[torn bear]

its not there

[vestal dust]

and they'll be in alphabetical order.

okay. So steam is not actually installed here, these are just folders.

[torn bear]

soo

[vestal dust]

that's good

so. Next step. you have a folder called "common"

see it?

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

go ahead and open that folder.

[vestal dust]

perfect. These are game files.

[torn bear]

yessir

[vestal dust]

In this case, lets check the Stardew Valley folder, to see if anything is in it.

[torn bear]

yessir

[vestal dust]

perfect. So.
These are your game files.

[torn bear]

why does it say i gotta reinstall them

[vestal dust]

because they're not in the place that steam expects them to be.

[torn bear]

ah

[vestal dust]

you have them, and -we- know where they are, but steam is looking for them in a different building, so it can't find them.

[torn bear]

oof

so now what

cause as i said i lost steamapps

[vestal dust]

we have two options.

1. Try to move these back into the correct spot.
2. Delete these and reinstall your games.

[torn bear]

sure

[vestal dust]

to begin with. leave this folder open, don't close it. but open a new one, by pressing Windows+E again.

[torn bear]

sure

now

[vestal dust]

Lets go back to your C drive
Click on this PC on the left, and the double click the C drive.

[torn bear]

sure

now?

[vestal dust]

On the C drive , do you have a folder called Program Files (x86) ?

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

open that one.

[torn bear]

sure

[vestal dust]

in that folder, do you have a folder called Steam?

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

perfect.

[torn bear]

nvm no

[vestal dust]

okay. that's fine!

[torn bear]

alr

[vestal dust]

Can you open steam from your start menu?

[torn bear]

yes

its on now

[vestal dust]

okay. And you're in your library?

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

do you see Stardew Valley listed?

[torn bear]

yes

it says install

[vestal dust]

Right click on it.

[torn bear]

where

[vestal dust]

in the left panel

[torn bear]

sure

[vestal dust]

even though you have a button that says "install", when you right click on the title in the left panel, you should still get a menu.

[torn bear]

mhm

yup

thats correct

[vestal dust]

First, Check properties.

[torn bear]

alr

[vestal dust]

I'm guessing you won't have anything listed there.

[torn bear]

that is displayed

[vestal dust]

okay. We'll need to clear out the launch options for now.

[torn bear]

sure

[vestal dust]

and then close that menu.

[torn bear]

sure

is smtg wrong...

[vestal dust]

now, in steam, at the very very very very stop, there's a button that says Steam.

[torn bear]

yea

[vestal dust]

we're just checking all the maps to make certain that we know which building we NEED to be in.

[torn bear]

sure

[vestal dust]

click that steam button, and then click settings.

[torn bear]

alr

[vestal dust]

On the left again, there's a whole list of things. One of them stays "Storage".
See it?

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

left click it one time.

[torn bear]

yeah

[vestal dust]

perfect! See that line of text above the yellow bar?

[torn bear]

mhm

[vestal dust]

that's where steam is looking for your games. But... your games don't live there right now, they live somewhere else.

So, we're going to move them back.

[torn bear]

yeah

Sure!!!

[vestal dust]

You have two file explorer windows open.

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

one of them is the files for the STardew Valley game, yes?

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

Near the top of that folder, it says "This PC > Windows (C:) > steamapps

yes?

[torn bear]

mhm

[vestal dust]

click where it says "Windows (C:)

[torn bear]

sure

now

[vestal dust]

now, in this folder, you should see the folder called "steamapps". We're not going to click on it or anything yet. Just verify that it's there.

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

alright. Now, in the OTHER open file explorer window, you should see "This PC > Windows (C:) > Program Files (x86)

[torn bear]

wdym

in the program files window

[vestal dust]

We had opened a 2nd file explorer window.

[torn bear]

yes

i open program files x86?

[vestal dust]

you had already, I thought.

[torn bear]

yes yes

it is

now what

[vestal dust]

okay. we're going to click where it says "Windows (C:)"

[torn bear]

sure

now

[vestal dust]

and in that folder, you should see a folder called "Users"

[torn bear]

mmh

[vestal dust]

open that folder.

[torn bear]

i got no users

nvm

yeah now

35699?

[vestal dust]

yes.

[torn bear]

alr

[vestal dust]

and then downloads.

[torn bear]

alr

now?

im in downloads

[vestal dust]

now, because it's your downloads folder, it's organized differently.

[torn bear]

couldnt i have accesed that immedialey

[vestal dust]

but, we're looking for a folder called "New Folder"

[torn bear]

yeah

sure

im in it

[vestal dust]

you could have. we did it this way because sometimes a computer can have more than one downloads folder and they often look the same, and we want to make extra sure that we're in the exact right spot.

[vestal dust]

open up game.

[torn bear]

sure

now

[vestal dust]

now, we have two file explorer windows. THe one we just navigated to, and the one that is just "This PC > Windows (C:)"

[torn bear]

yes

[vestal dust]

from the C: folder, we're going to drag the steamapps folder and drop it into an empty space inside the game folder.

[torn bear]

sure

did that

[vestal dust]

now. Completely and totally exit out of steam.

[torn bear]

look

[vestal dust]

skip them.

[torn bear]

sure

skip these files?

[vestal dust]

yes.

[torn bear]

alr now

[vestal dust]

now. completely exit out of steam. Close the window, and find the little steam icon next to your clock.

right click that little steam icon, and hit "exit steam"

[torn bear]

sure

now what

[vestal dust]

once steam has been entirely closed, we'll reopen it.

we're hoping that steam will find the files again.

[torn bear]

from start menu?

[vestal dust]

yup

[torn bear]

look

[vestal dust]

how were you opening steam before?

just like this?

[torn bear]

Yeah

and now idk what happened

:/

[vestal dust]

what does the inside of your game folder look like?

[torn bear]

like this

[vestal dust]

okay. lets do a search from here and see if we can find steam.exe

[torn bear]

sure

where

search menu?

[vestal dust]

there should be a search bar from within the game folder. Lets start with that one.

[vestal dust]

good. Run that.

[torn bear]

Bro..

[vestal dust]

go ahead and install that service.

[torn bear]

now its not getting me this

[vestal dust]

in the meantime, lets move to DMS so that we can get out of mod support .we're ... way out of scope for what this channel is.

I'm not going anywhere- I'm still helping. But we're going to use direct messages so we quit cluttering up the intended use of this channel, okay?

[torn bear]

sure

[wintry belfry]

Hey, smapi keeps saying it won't use certain mods because they have an empty folder. What does that mean?

[tough eagle]

Hello

so.. Im having trouble catching radioactive bass, and what I find odd is that when I use lookup anything, its the only fish without spawn rules in the ui for lookup anything... does that mean the fish is now spwaning anywhere? every other fish has it. Ive been fishing for days...

see? no spawn rules...

[fast stream]

Do you have content patcher?

[wintry belfry]

Yes

[fast stream]

Also you should try posting your Log!

[fast stream]

https://smapi.io/log

[wintry belfry]

Uhhh I don't think my error logs exist anymore

[fast stream]

Are you using Android?

https://smapi.io/log#Android

Follow the instructions!

[wintry belfry]

I did, this is my Stardew folder

[vestal dust]

Cass, the very first step is to post an actual log

!log

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here? Even if your game doesn't show any errors, logs are useful, and often necessary, for troubleshooting.

[vestal dust]

the instructions on that page indicate where to find the error log - it's not usually in the same folder as the game files.

the exception to this, as blender pointed out, is Android.

[vestal dust]

fish can technically spawn even if those rules don't show up in lookupanything. but it's very strange for radioactive bass to not be there. it's a fish that comes from Stardew Valley Expanded. It'll only be available after you hit fishing level ten.

So... if you're not at fishing level 10, get there. If you are then the next place to start is a full log

[tough eagle]

Im running margo, so Im level 20

Installed visible fish and it is not showing in the water either

https://smapi.io/log/d28bdfd26e3e45e1b5858e34bf7f675d

heres a log

[native dragon]

Log Info: SMAPI 3.18.6 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Microsoft Windows 10 Home, with 121 C# mods and 108 content packs.
Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[shrewd mason]

So...where should I add the folder that has the new portraits mod?

[modern python]

mods folder, but if its an HD portrait mod there will be special instructions i think. be sure to read the mod description first

[shrewd mason]

I already managed to do it, thanks

[wintry belfry]

I am on Android, I have only one Stardew valley folder. The only things in the folder are the mods and smapi-internal, there's no ErrorLog.

Whenever I do a wide search for anything related to "error", it says I have no folders with the name.

[scarlet quail]

In general, people always seem to have trouble locating the errorlogs folder.

You have run SMAPI, yes?

[vestal dust]

so.. I have no idea. I can verify that with MARGO and SVE installed and fishing at level 20, the spawn rules do show up for me in lookup anything.
I'm not sure how fishing made easy affects the mix since I just use CJB Cheats for that. I am out of ideas, at this point unfortunately.

[tough eagle]

hmm

[vestal dust]

Androids lives in your ./StardewValley/ErrorLogs (according to the smapi instructions) which implies they're looking in the right place)I am completely unfamiliar with android in every possible way though.

[tough eagle]

I will try to remove the suite then

Thank you so much for at least looking

I apprecite you!

[vestal dust]

Ana- I can say two things that might (and only might?) help.

1. while I absolutely adore margo and refuse to get rid of it, it also is the single mod that i have the hardest time with for anything related to compatibility.

and 2) I have not updated to the newest margo yet - I'm still on 4.1.6.

so .. it might be something that changed with the update to 4.2 if it's a new issue for you.

[tough eagle]

I will keep this in mind and report the findings of my troubleshooting

[wintry belfry]

"run SMAPI" ??

[vestal dust]

it might be an absolute dead end and waste of time, but that's the only sense of any actual direction I have, even though it only holds if the issue is new ish.

[scarlet quail]

Yes.

Have you run SMAPI

modded requires SMAPI to load.

[tough eagle]

welp

I disabled the fishing made easy suites and now it shows

now to see if I can catch it

[wintry belfry]

I have SMAPI, only some of the mods aren't working

[scarlet quail]

And?

Have you run it

If you have SMAPI, have you ran it

[wintry belfry]

Run it???? I followed IrishViking's tutorial on youtube. I'm pretty sure he didn't use the term "run"

[tough eagle]

success

[scarlet quail]

Oh lord, not a youtube guide

!videoguides

[native dragon]

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

[tough eagle]

ty @vestal dust

[vestal dust]

good to know. I picked on that one because it has the ability to configure spawn rates and things, there might be a configuration that needed updated or got changed. Depending on what part of that mod you like, there may be some better options, or something else in the config that I'm not familiar with may need updated. but if you want the fishing made easy back, I'd check with that mod author for more help.

glad you got it working!

(run is a very common term in computer/tech stuff for... open a program and let it do the thing its meant to do)

[vestal dust]

Run is a pretty standard term. any time you open a program file, that is "running" the program.
In the stardew/smapi case, you don't use stardewvalley.exe when you're using mods.

You need to run the smapi.exe.

(note: exe is for windows. the extensions (parts after the .) are different for android. No, I don't know what they are. The principal remains the same)

Android SMAPI does not currently work for SDV 1.5.6.61. We do not know if or when it will be made compatible.

Mod support for 1.5 on Android is still experimental, so many mods are broken or buggy. That's often something SMAPI needs to fix, and we may not be able to provide a solution.

If you find a mod bug on Android, first make sure that:
a) you have the latest SMAPI version from https://github.com/ZaneYork/SMAPI-Android-Installer/releases;
b) you have the latest mod version(s) or have the last-known Android-compatible version;
c) and the mod author hasn't already addressed it on the mod page (e.g. via an Android-specific version or comments).

If all of those are true, feel free to ask for help in #archived-modded-support with your full SMAPI log: https://smapi.io/log.

Once SMAPI on Android is more stable, updated instructions will be posted here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Android.

[vestal dust]

thanks Lyoko. I'll remember the commands first. :p

[scarlet quail]

it's fine, it wasn't relevant until you said the timeframe of the videoguide

I was still thinking it was relevant to 1.5 just out of date... not 1.4

[vestal dust]

eventually, not first. Look. I'm multitasking. :p

I'll remember commands eventually

[modern python]

dont worry, i use the incorrect words all the time even though i have the right one in my head

yea, I went to look up the tutorial just to see what it was, and it's .. May17, 2022.

[fleet orchid]

Hihi, sorry for butting in but can someone help me with an issue I'm having? I'm playing Stardew valley with the SVE mod and romanceable ramodius. (and a bunch of other mods) Everything works great except the Wizards 9 heart event. I get the letter to go to the secret woods and I go and nothing happens....All the other heart events work just fine tho!

[wintry belfry]

I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to be running. Do I go into files and interact with something, or is it just me entering SMAPI stardew when I install it?

[vestal dust]

once you've installed smapi, there will be a new program file called SMAPI, not stardew valley.

you need to open the SMAPI version of Stardew.

but if you followed the old tutorial, any links you used might have pointed to a vastly out of date apk

[wintry belfry]

Is the program the top one? The APK I used is the one on the wiki

[vestal dust]

okay. did you actually install the apk?

[wintry belfry]

Yes

[vestal dust]

(sorry, again, I'm super bad at android, so I'm flailing a LOT)

[wintry belfry]

Don't be. I'm glad someone is here trying to help :]

[vestal dust]

I.. the only thing I really have is "run the SMAPI Stardew Valley icon or tap the floating action button in the installer app. "

simply running smapi should create the error log in that error log folder that we're looking for.

[wintry belfry]

Imma try uninstalling everything and reinstalling the APK

[junior pendant]

this is probably a dumb question but, i use fashion sense and am wondering if a saved outfit will save vanilla items

for example, if i change my hairstyle (through the wizard) and save that as a different outfit can i switch between that and other outfits?

just tried with actual clothing and no that doesn't work, still don't know about hair, can't use the statue yet to change it

i assume FS only looks at stuff that is selected in the actual FS menu

[scarlet quail]

you supposedly have the GOG version of SDV. If that's actually the case, reset your game files

According to the mod the only requirements are 9 hearts and the letter. And it said I've already seen it!

[modern python]

uh oh

[scarlet quail]

give an image of said result katypoyo

Alr, I don't wanna mess this up.
I reinstalled the og Stardew, and I installed the APK. I have the SMAPI installer app but I haven't installed SMAPI Stardew Valley. What am I supposed to be running?

[vestal dust]

run the smapi installer app.

open it. for android, you've loaded the apk file, but you have to actually OPEN the apk file to install smapi itself.

[scarlet quail]

uh.

Unless I'm misreading that, that second image is a pirated apk

[wintry belfry]

[vestal dust]

okay, so... I would remove all the smapi apks you have , and start from the beginning of the wiki steps.

which links you to this apk:

is that where you got your apk?

Nope

Does this one?

[wintry belfry]

Should I be concerned about this second image????

[scarlet quail]

this is not the 9 heart event

In fact, you have seen that event because you got the mail

I'm a little confused as to what you think you're missing

since your event lookup says you don't have one

[vestal dust]

what is event id 282815627 in that image then?

[fleet orchid]

I'm confused

[scarlet quail]

the event that gives you the letter.

[vestal dust]

in general, i'd be concerned about anything that says pending, but we're so far beyond my android knowledge, it isn't even funny.

[wintry belfry]

I'll delete both and reinstall the APK

[fleet orchid]

I got the letter but the letter says go to the secret woods.

[vestal dust]

also here's a random question about hte event lookup - what does the forget button do? does it just remove it from the list or does it make the game forget that you've seen it?

[fleet orchid]

but I go and nothing happens

[vestal dust]

for SVE, there is no 9heart event with Magnus. It's at 10 hearts in cindersap between 1:30pm and 4:30pm. I have absoutely zero idea about the custom romance stuff you have installed. but you can romance magnus in sve without needing a separate mod.

it doesn't LOOK like it conflicts, but I still wonder.

(and that's based on the mod itself you have being the custom kissing mod, since I didn't see a different custom romance mod in your list)

[fleet orchid]

I thought I needed separate mod

[vestal dust]

just plain ol' sve turns the wizard into magnus and makes him romanceable - but there's no 9 heart event: https://stardew-valley-expanded.fandom.com/wiki/Magnus

[fleet orchid]

I'm kinda new to this as you can tell...

oooohhh

[vestal dust]

I figured I'd rather say something and have you be all "i already knew that"! than have information that you needed to help fix the issue.

but also - as much as I play with mod interactions and things -this is the first time I've seen event lookup, which I am very much liking!

[wintry belfry]

I installed the APK and I have the SMAPI Stardew Valley app. Do I look for the errorlog?

[vestal dust]

have you opened the smapi stardew valley app?

[wintry belfry]

Yeah

[vestal dust]

then yes, you should be able to find the error log now.

hopefully? 🤞

[wintry belfry]

No error log

[vestal dust]

what's in smapi internal?

[fleet orchid]

Thanks for the help everyone

[vestal dust]

glad we got something figured out!

[wintry belfry]

Idk, I deleted the stardew valley folder and when I installed the SMAPI Stardew Valley it gave me the folder back

[vestal dust]

yea, installing it would create those folders - what folders are available inside smapi-internal?

[wintry belfry]

This is it

[vestal dust]

then i've got... nothin.

in theory, if there are mods in the mods folder, and you run the smapi stardew valley icon, it should create the error log.

and I .. don't remember the initial problem you were trying to fix, but you might try it now that youv'e reinstalled.

might have to reinstall the mod(s) in question.

[wintry belfry]

Should I rerun SMAPI stardew?

[long brook]

errorlog should be created once smapi is launched

[wintry belfry]

I launched it and I got the lines of code that flashes across the screen. But when I check the files I can't find an error log file

[long brook]

so there's no ErrorLog folder created inside SDV folder?

[wintry belfry]

Yeah

If I just make a folder and name it ErrorLog will the system register it and dump errors in?

[long brook]

i don't know, sorry. also i'm not too familiar iwith how mobile modding works

[stark horizon]

Hey - so according to your log, you don't have Walk to the Desert installed. You do have Bus Locations - Desert 1.2.0 installed, and that's definitely throwing an error. Remove that and launch the game. If you still get an error, then it's likely something else on top of that.

[stark horizon]

It's hard to tell from just this screen, but it looks like the game is missing a critical file. If you launch the game via Steam, try verifying the game's content files.

[stark horizon]

We won't be able to troubleshoot from just this. We need logs from both you and your friend.

You can't fix it. If the mod is incompatible, then there's nothing we can do.

You can check the list to see if there is a version that is compatible, but android modding is in a very rough state right now.

May we check about the mod SAAT still compatible with mobile ? it shows errors yet but not working with me. Already tried other mods like sound tweaker and effect sound replacement by Aedenthorn, also not working

[visual thicket]

they already asked, what is the name of the folder where the saves are

[modern python]

if youre on something later than 1.5.6.39 smapi is not going to be working.

[weak sand]

Your problem there is your save file because the first letter in your save file is capital you need to rename it

oh i thought saves should be on the, data file

[weak sand]

To saves

[mossy spruce]

I'm on .39

idk then. not many people here know anything about android smapi and its generally just kind of buggy. make sure you installed smapi and put the mods in the correct place

!backup

[native dragon]

You have options if you are worried that the update to 1.6 will break your modded save.

1. Copy and move your game folder to a new location on your computer and launch SDV directly from that new location. For easier access, pin the new location to your favorites or create a shortcut to the .exe file on your desktop!

2. Rename the game folder to "Stardew Valley 1.5.6" and launch SDV directly from that new location. NOTE: You will not be able to play through Steam anymore unless you also set up the game + SMAPI as a non-Steam game method, so keep that in mind if you care about total playtime hours or achievements.

3. Add 1.5.6 to Steam as a non-Steam Game Method (instructions here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Can_I_have_different_mod_groups.3F)

(See instructions for finding game folder here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Find_your_game_folder)

After finding the file location, the simplest backup method is to manually copy the entire Stardew Vally saves folder to another disk, or just create a folder named "Backup" on the Stardew Vally file location and put all files into it. The whole backup process can be completed in two minutes

[jaunty frigate]

Okay so take my save file and mod file and put it in there got it

Just copy both folders okay cool gonna take this for later when I will need it

[weak sand]

Just copy it

[jaunty frigate]

And what about launching it from out of steam

Okay nvm

1 Complete the SMAPI installation.

2 Copy the Steam Launch Options in the installer.

3 Open the Steam client.

4 Locate Stardew Valley, right-click it and open Properties.

5 Navigate to the General tab.

6 Locate Launch Options, and paste the file location you previously copied.

Over and over again

[modern python]

(its knd of unweildy to put these giant errors in the chat like this, this is why i sent the logtoobig command, but i digress.) i assume this is the fish pond issue

!fixfp

[native dragon]

If your game is crashing walking near your fish ponds, it's likely you have had a JSON shuffle within your fish ponds. There are two different ways to fix this:
Install Warp Snitch (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9087), fish everything out of your pond, reset the pond, and put a base game fish in your pond, then save. You will lose your fish in your pond, but not your fish ponds.
Type world_clear current fishponds (or world_clear current fishpond ) while on the farm. This will instantly fix the issue - by deleting your fish ponds from your game. You will have to build new ones.

[green jetty]

Here's the thing they are algae ponds

[weak sand]

Use the content patcher version 1.29.3 I dunno why generic mod config menu is not compatible in your smapi

[modern python]

....you cant put algae in fish ponds in vanilla. so try doing this anyway

[weak sand]

Right that's true but sound tweaker is not working on mobile version

[green jetty]

Ok I will. Hopefully it'll fix it. I never actually put any fish in them so they kind of just filled with algae

They've been empty since I built them for like 2 weeks

Thus the algae

[modern python]

well, algae growing in ponds like that is not a vanilla feature so im inclined to believe they got corrupted somehow

[green jetty]

I... did not know that

Is it an sve thing?

[modern python]

idk. dont think so cuz ive never heard someone mention it before

[scarlet quail]

it's not an SVE thing

[green jetty]

Now I'm curious what it's from

[scarlet quail]

I'm pretty sure that that's why it managed not to die - normally if it was a JA item that went in the pond, you'd break going near them

instead, it's dying on newDayTask

[modern python]

i could believe MARGO adding something like that

[green jetty]

I don't have Margo active

[modern python]

idk then

[green jetty]

I only realized something was up cause I had an infinite new day loading screen.

[gaunt gust]

it's a margo feature, if you had algae in your ponds due to margo and then disabled margo stuff like that can happen, yeah

as for what to do - empty all the algae ponds out

or wait until 1.6 where these crashes won't happen anymore

[scarlet quail]

Well, good to know for the... relevant future since 1.6 is soon tm? Next time I guess we have to ask "have you ever had MARGO active, yes or no"

[green jetty]

I've never had Margo active on this save file tho

[scarlet quail]

but given your wording, you've played with MARGO before?

[green jetty]

Over a month ago. This save is only like 3 days old if that

It doesn't matter WHO put algae in those ponds

it really doesn't

[green jetty]

The log file is to big

[gaunt gust]

you just have to remove it, lol

[scarlet quail]

!logtoobig

[native dragon]

If the log is too big, see here for how to fix that https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/Debugging#If_the_log_is_too_big_/_parser_site_won't_load_it. (Or just head and tail the file: https://www.baeldung.com/linux/head-tail-commands)

[gaunt gust]

and frankly, I don't really care why you have algae in your fish ponds, just yeet it, lol

[modern python]

i already sent you the logtoobig command earlier, this problem is fixable...

[gaunt gust]

Again, you don't have to take our advice, but if you don't want to, I'm just gonna head out now.

Not worth my time here.

[green jetty]

I'm trying to get the log file part with just the mod list

And I've already added warp snitch

heres the log with just my mod list

[valid helm]

hey uh, comin here for some help with a problem and i dont really know where else to ask

im getting a bug where when i level up the level up stuff shows twice, which wasn't really a problem until i hit level 10 (in fishing, but the bug happens for every skill) and because i have MARGO it made me select both instead of just one which obviously messes with the balance of things quite a bit

heres my list of mods from my mods folder, are any of these known to cause this? i wouldn't know which would cause this, and im just looking for assistance cuz i dont wanna break the balance of the game wide open like this @w@

please @ me if you respond and thanks in advance! :3

also, as a side note, whether the issue can be fixed or not if someone knows how to remove a "prestige'd" profession from MARGO that would be a workaround solution and also im already stuck with this first one so lmao

hello i dont want to interrupt but i have a question wen someone is available

[robust bison]

!ask

[native dragon]

Ask your question or describe your issue here, and someone will help if they can!

[woeful falcon]

well no issue yet, but we are trying to convert a server to a modded server

[robust bison]

ok

[woeful falcon]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2213

this is the one most interested in but making sure its a safe one and asking if there are better options

[robust bison]

did that log have the errors as well?

[robust bison]

!playerlimit

[native dragon]

You can play with more than 4 players without any mods. See this tweet by ConcernedApe:
https://vxtwitter.com/concernedape/status/1395243158460530689

[woeful falcon]

oh yay

youre the best

[robust bison]

there will also be an 8 player limit in 1.6

np

[woeful falcon]

do all players need to use this or just the host

yes im excited about 1.6

also is there such a thing to make the server headless?

[robust bison]

everything is on 1 save file so just the host

[woeful falcon]

yayy

[robust bison]

there was one mod called always on server but I don't know how well it still works

[woeful falcon]

ok will skip it then

thanks alot

(can i still pretend im a modded farmer)

[robust bison]

sure

I have Stardew on Steam and just switched from a Mac to Windows PC. I had a bunch of mods before but haven’t installed them on new computer yet. Whenever I open the game now on Windows and choose a save it says loading but then crashes. Do I need to reinstall the mods for the game to work? It still works fine on my Mac.

[green jetty]

Yea but it's over 100,000 kb. And its the exact same error in repeat

[robust bison]

in general, most mods besides visual ones cannot be removed after being added

[robust bison]

your log didn't have warp snitch-can you make sure it's installed, then relaunch the game and attempt to replicate the log error

then post a new one

[green jetty]

Yea I'm working on that

[south turret]

I don't have a mods folder on my new computer though. i can't open the game to see if any are there

[green jetty]

i was watching the log while the game was still trying to load and the error popped up

im also going to do what vin said if my save does decide to load

[valid helm]

bumping this sorry to be insistent but when problems like this crop up i tend to like to eliminate them asap

[scarlet quail]

That's not how that works.
On a file, data is written to your save file. If you had any mods at any point that added content or otherwise, your save file now permanently has mods. If it's crashing upon load, that means it had mods and it can no longer load the content.

if you can open the game and go to load, as you said, the game is running. You simply cannot play your file without SMAPI and at least Error Handler

And Steam transfers over saves via the cloud, so yes, it will still have mods applied to it when it got transferred over.

[south turret]

oh I see. I will install SMAPI again and see if it will load since i don't have it

[robust bison]

sorry, not sure, try removing anything besides Margo that affects skills first

[valid helm]

the only mod that i can think of that "affects skills" is technically skill learning i think and even then thats quite the technicality

whats the safest way to go about testing mod removal? i imagine backing up my saves somewhere is a good idea?

[scarlet quail]

I mean, if you want to, yeah

But mod removals only take full effect when you save

so toss something in the shipping bin, then end the day

you'll be able to see the level up stuffs

[valid helm]

yknow ill prolly just start a new test save, get a level in a skill and thatll be an easy test without touching my saves

[south turret]

ok this worked but need to reinstall the mods i had since they disappeared but that's okay

[valid helm]

update: its a bug with MARGO .w.

[robust bison]

@prisma cosmos use windows snipping tool

I have to go but someone else should be able to help you

(they're trying to set up smapi with launch options)

[languid yarrow]

@prisma cosmos gave up?

[vestal dust]

MARGO's a fantastic mod, but this is almost always a legit question. it messes with SO many things in ways that the smapi error handler is just not good at.

[prisma cosmos]

no i got it working

just need to fixx the mods not loading.

[languid yarrow]

True, but just look at the section in red called incompatible mod

It answers a lot of questions

[prisma cosmos]

it's found the mods but not loading it how do i fix that

[scarlet quail]

Depends on the mod

!log

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here? Even if your game doesn't show any errors, logs are useful, and often necessary, for troubleshooting.

[prisma cosmos]

i don't know how to do any of that

[scarlet quail]

instructions are in the link.

[prisma cosmos]

instructions don't help if i don't understand the instructions

[scarlet quail]

Not sure what exactly is confusing, then.

You should explain what you can't figure out.

[neat plaza]

how do you not understand them

[prisma cosmos]

how do i fix this?

[scarlet quail]

reinstall SVE

you're missing all the folders SVE comes with

with exception of the CP folder, somehow

Again, though, if you want actual troubleshooting, please upload your log - and if you're confused on the instructions, state how

otherwise, we will very rarely be able to help, and most aren't willing to do the whole step-by-step thing if people aren't willing to explain.

[woeful falcon]

it didnt work 😦

[scarlet quail]

moreplayers definitely does work

[woeful falcon]

changed the -1 to 8 and saved... restarted

no worky

[scarlet quail]

I can guarantee you that works on 1.5.6, akufishheads

[woeful falcon]

i believe you

just didnt

[scarlet quail]

Let me guess

[woeful falcon]

wat i do wrong

[scarlet quail]

you're thinking it'll allow you to start with 7 cabins?

[woeful falcon]

no i have a game server with 3 other farmers already.. its pretty far along

i just want to add more players

[scarlet quail]

Okay, and?

What is making you think it didn't work?

[woeful falcon]

why are you being rude tbh

because another player cant join

we tried

[scarlet quail]

Do you have a cabin for them?

[woeful falcon]

hmm i didnt think of that

let me try that thanks

[scarlet quail]

For the record, I am not being rude - I'm literally asking "and?" as in "what specifically isn't happening"

you require a cabin for each person

[woeful falcon]

ok sorry to misunderstand

[prisma cosmos]

how would one go about submittion a log

[woeful falcon]

thanks for the help

[scarlet quail]

playerLimit raising allows you to add more cabins at Robin's, which allows you to have more join

[scarlet quail]

And please explain where you're getting stuck getting it, Cyanide.

[prisma cosmos]

do i just copy and past the whole log into it?

[neat plaza]

read the instructions

[scarlet quail]

you don't copy and paste anything, Cyanide.

If you are copy and pasting anything - e.g. from your console - that's not the log

The log is a text file you would drag into the log parser.

[prisma cosmos]

oh

i did that, now what It says im missing the SVE stuff like you said but how do i download thoses

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

they all come bundled when you dowload sve, you have to just make sure you move all components into the mods folder and not just one of them

[scarlet quail]

If you did that, please share the link you got here.

Hm. Interesting

Stardew Valley Expanded (from Mods\stardew valley expanded\-Stardew Valley Expanded--3753-1-14-24-1688505756\Stardew Valley Expanded\[CP] Stardew Valley Expanded) [content pack]...

Why is stardew valley expanded in all lowercase and containing the folder itself

In fact, almost all of them are doing that.... why are they an extra folder deep?

[prisma cosmos]

idk

[scarlet quail]

Is this a modpack you installed from somewhere or something?

[prisma cosmos]

no

all of it was off nexus

[scarlet quail]

let me guess then: You downloaded a collection off of Nexus?

Because the problem with that statement is those folders don't spontaneously create themselves, and the Nexus copies don't have them

[prisma cosmos]

i got rid of the folder that they were in

im also re downloading sve

LET'S GO I DID IT only took 3 hours

[prisma cosmos]

thx for the help

[scarlet quail]
