Wish least they updated that info in that that smapi log website

[serene heron]

does anyone know how to mod sdv on a chromebook?

[pallid summit]

are you running the android version of the game on it?

[serene heron]

yuh , i tried looking for a tutorial but couldnt find one

[long spire]

yo can anyone help

[pallid summit]

!androidsmapi then it is likely you are out of luck for the time being

[native dragon]

Android SMAPI does not currently work for versions of SDV past 1.5.6.39. We do not know if or when it will be made compatible. It is not possible to downgrade to .39 through legal means so do not ask how to do this.

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.

[pallid summit]

some models of chromebook can/do also run Linux, on which modding is fully supported, but i wouldn't recommend that approach unless you are truly desperate (and it may not be available to you in the first place)

[pallid summit]

your log doesn't seem to show any errors. is this log from a session where the crash occurred?

[long spire]

yeah! i just ran the game with no mods and had no issues

[pallid summit]

ok. i'm afraid i don't have much to go on then. sorry about it!

[long spire]

thank you for helping anyway

If you're using a Chromebook as a Linux user of 4 years I highly recommend installing a Linux operating system on your Chromebook it's just better. In Linux there are lots of flavors and some like Ubuntu and Linux mint come with different tiers I recommend Linux Mint Xfce or x xubuntu user friendly and easy Linux operating systems

[serene heron]

i have a low end device, would linux make it lag?

[native lotus]

No quite the contrary you probably see the laptop come to life

[supple plume]

the extended was working fine, so i added the grandpas farm as well and now when i open it up, stardew shows up in tabs but it doesn't open up, anyone know why?

[native lotus]

The OS's I mentioned mint Xfce and Xubuntu are lightweight and configurable. Do some research on puppy Linux and other distros

[supple plume]

@languid trout would you know by any chance?

nvm it worked

i had to open straight from the modded file

[white echo]

I have a lot of problems with moods, could someone help me with a winrar with the essential mods for beginners?

hello! i deleted all the mods out of my stardew folders and would like to play the base game with friends, my issue is i cannot host or join multiplayer without crashing after the invite code is generated, is there any way to get the base regular files back like when i originally installed from steam?

i tried all the options and it didn’t seem to work, is there a way to completely reset the entire game itself + files? including saves?

[elder zephyr]

hello!! Does anyone know how to add more keys for my keyboard? I already know how to do it but since my cell phone is new and it's Android 14 it doesn't let me do anything in the Android Data folder, I can now put the mods but I can't do the process to put more keys

Because then I won't be able to use several mods that I have, I use their key

[lusty cliff]

i have no idea whats happening but everythign was fine until i got back from the desert and this grid bug started appearing

whole game looks a bit blurry too

except 4 UI

[modern python]

thats a spritemaster issue i believe, should go away if you restart the game in my experience

[lusty cliff]

allrighty

does it happen every time?

[modern python]

no ive only ever had it happen once

[lusty cliff]

weird

ty for the help :D

[sonic frigate]

gm all ❤️
well first time modder here, went a bit too crazy with mods yesterday lol. having some issues in game, how do i reset to base game or repair files? i have all the mods i like that i do know do work, so i'd like to repair all base files first then install the few mods i know work that i have to have (if that's how it's normally done in situations like this?)

welp nvm, looks like everything is working smoothly after I just moved the files back to their places and deleted the non-working mods
woot! lol
so i know in the future, if i did mess up my game bad with some mods somehow, how would i go about repairing it?

[naive drum]

Well, firstly, you shouldn't be installing anything that goes in the Content folder

if you did though

!reset

[native dragon]

See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! (This doesn't affect your save files.) You may also want to check this list of XNB > Content Patcher conversions (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher) to see if there are already replacements for any XNB mods you may have been using :)

[naive drum]

!log is another useful link

[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.

[naive drum]

there's even an annotated SMAPI log to help people figure out how to read them: https://imgur.com/SRfOvKB

[sonic frigate]

Ahhh tysm! i appreciate it
ohh dang now i know tyty
this mod here says to do exactly just that so i'll avoid mods in the future like this then, ty
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1441?tab=description

[naive drum]

There's often Content Patcher conversions of those XNB replacer mods!

!xnb

[native dragon]

XNB mods often break the game and are not recommended. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods for more info (and a list of Content Patcher alternatives), and https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files to fix problems caused by XNB mods. For mod creators, see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).

!dsv

[native dragon]

Diverse Stardew Valley (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/17059) is an expansion mod that adds extensive seasonal, festival, and location-specific outfits and alternate diversity redesigns for NPCs supported by dialogue, event edits, and map edits. Outfits are available for either the vanilla or alternate character designs and nearly every aspect of DSV can be configured individually. See the DSV website for more details, including a list of mods with special compatibility: https://diversestardewvalley.weebly.com/

ty

[sacred remnant]

if the update link is for moddrop, it's most likely for the alpha and can be ignored. if it's a nexus link, it should be a legitimate update

[ripe charm]

its for nexsus and i check them and they are for alpha

[sacred remnant]

the main file is the one you should use, the optional file one is the one for the alpha no?

[ripe charm]

when i copy the links to the mods to check for updates i dont see any main file update only the alpha ones

[sacred remnant]

which mod is this?

[ripe charm]

Backwoods Entry for Zenith Farm

• Balanced Valley - Mining
• Balanced Valley - Realistic Farming
• Dacar vanilla anime style portraits

[sacred remnant]

the first three i dont see any alpha's for?

or for the portraits either

you have the alpha versions of GMCM, Json Assets and SpaceCore installed, you need to install the 1.5.6 versions

Hi guys, i have a problem with smapi, it doesn't let me download smapi on my mac (i have a mac from 2022) and i don't know what to do

[elder zephyr]

hello!! Does anyone know how to put more keys on my virtual keyboard for Android? My cell phone is new and comes with Android 14 and it won't let me modify my data folder, therefore I can't use the method that I already know how to use to put more keys on my keyboard

[bleak bobcat]

Hii, can anyone felp me? I have a texture mod for the ostrich and when I run the game an error appears
"Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: Can't parse JSON file"
I tried to find the error on the file but I don't know how to solve it.
Here's the json validator link:
https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/f994c9c642454ab2bec4546d6fb64216

[sacred remnant]

missing , on line 10

[bleak bobcat]

but when I put the coma the json validator finds even more errors
https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/e20d26060457491da7c4c2e7a3539dc0

[pallid summit]

those are schema errors, because this isn't a content patcher json

[bleak bobcat]

and what do I do?

[pallid summit]

try using it now

[sacred remnant]

nothing, it should work as an alternative textures pack

[bleak bobcat]

oohh thanks

seriously I was going crazy, so thanks a lot

[grizzled timber]

Here you have it! @tired brook

[tired brook]

Here you go! You can now pick up that incubator with any tool.

[grizzled timber]

it tells me there are no games saved :(

@tired brook did I do anything wrong?

[sacred remnant]

did you unzip it?

[grizzled timber]

yes

I unzipped, went to the saves folder, got everything out (not deleted just out of the folder) put the new save inside and nothing happened

[tired brook]

Can you post a screenshot of what's inside your Saves folder and Turquesa_275860685 folder?

[grizzled timber]

yes wait a sec

[tired brook]

You should have a single Saves/Turquesa_275860685 folder, with no folders inside it. It looks like you unzipped the edited save as a subfolder odf the old save.

[grizzled timber]

ohhhh

okay Ill try again

but will it work if I delete the folder

leaving the save game info

[tired brook]

No, you need the Turquesa_275860685 file (inside the Turquesa_275860685 folder) too.

I suggest deleting the old folders, then just unzipping the zip I posted directly into Saves.

[grizzled timber]

okay let's try again

still empty

did I lose everything?? :((

[tired brook]

No, it's just unzipped incorrectly. Can you post screenshots of what you have now (with the path at the top visible)?

[grizzled timber]

yes

looks the same as before

[tired brook]

Yep, it should look like this:

[grizzled timber]

its like it duplicated but I dont understand why

[tired brook]

Can you delete the folder in Saves, then double-click the Turquesa_275860685.zip you downloaded and post a screenshot of what you see?

[grizzled timber]

delete which folder

there are 2 one is a copy

[tired brook]

I suggest moving your backup out of Saves (otherwise it'll get synced to Steam), then deleting the remaining folder.

[grizzled timber]

this one comes before sorry

[grizzled timber]

but the backup was created because I launched the game, before that it was just the unzipped file

[tired brook]

I haven't used WinRAR in a long while; if you right-click that folder in the second screenshot, do you have a 'copy' option?

[grizzled timber]

this folder?

[tired brook]

Yep.

[grizzled timber]

I can grab it and put it wherever I want

not a copy option

[tired brook]

Alright, so move that entire folder as-is into Saves.

[grizzled timber]

okay

do I have to empty saves folder

[tired brook]

What do you have in it currently?

[grizzled timber]

this

I emptied it

and now it looks like what you showed me

Im launching it through steam again

Steam tell me that it couldn't synchronize with Cloud

And that maybe if I play I could lose process

progress*

[tired brook]

Something about a conflict or saves don't match? That's normal if so, since you just directly changed your save folder. It'll resync your local changes.

[grizzled timber]

I dont know Im clicking on playing anyways

OKAY

I have it

Maybe it was steam cloud

Now I'm going to see if I can get the incubator out

It worked

Thanks a lot!!!😭😭

And sorry for bothering you so much @tired brook

[tired brook]

we cant talk about that sort of mod here unfortunately

Normally we don't troubleshoot mods like that, but is it the ppja mod? You just have to purchase the seeds unless you have the optional events, maybe?

[wary roost]

?

[languid trout]

You might have downloaded 1.6 alphas if that's the case, Freddie. That or you have an older version of Smapi.

[lean star]

as it says, it's not a mod but a reshade, so I hope you didn't put it in your mods folder (like they say in the description)

[wary roost]

they said to put it in the root of the game as a zip folder, i did it and nothing happened

[lean star]

the contents of "Natural Color.zip" does not equal the zip, you unzip it first

[languid trout]

The Stardew Valley 1.5.5 update and higher allows Natural Color to be injected automatically at game startup without having to start "Natural Color - Launcher" ! If you don't have this update, the old injection methods are still available for Stardew Valley 64 and 32 bits with "[1] Install Natural Color" option.

So extract it, then just launch the game normally and it will work.

[steel plume]

Hii! I'm not really sure what to do with SMAPI. I installed it, got everything, but I don't really know what to do here. I skipped it so when I try to use a command, SMAPI crashes 😦

[wary roost]

ugh also, it keeps saying that i have to download Cute Valley version 1.5.2 but i did

[lean star]

ignore it, they put 1.5.1 in the manifest for 1.5.2

[wary roost]

do i js wait for it to load

its been 5 minutes

[lean star]

the game can/will take longer to load with mods, but 5min with what little mods you have sounds excessive (still possible, I don't know your hardware)

[wary roost]

i have like 10 mods

[languid trout]

You don't use Smapi to launch the game, it launches itself whenever you use modded stardew

[strange ruin]

usually SMAPI will launch the game

[lean star]

by load do you mean load as in start the game or load your save file?

[wary roost]

start the game

[lean star]

does stardew ever open or do you only get the SMAPI console?

[wary roost]

it opens

its acting slow rn idk why

[lean star]

do you get the same result without Natural Color?

[steel plume]

I manager to figure out what to do but now whenever I launch the game via Steam, the title freezes 😦

[leaden cloak]

I've not been keeping up with the new update coming out, but do we know if it's going to break any major mods? I'm almost a year into my first SVE playthrough (with several other mods as well) and I don't want to download the update just to have everything break

[pallid summit]

the existing published SVE will almost certainly break. i would expect it to update fairly soon though

[modern python]

1.6 is changing a lot about modding so yes it will break stuff like SVE and Ridgeside. but the teams are working hard to get the mods updated in time

[sacred remnant]

it will break major mods BUT many mods will have updates ready for when it comes out/soon after it comes out

[wary roost]

no, i deleted it and my game loaded

[lean star]

if you've not done so yet, you can try manually injecting the reshade and see whether that works for you or ditch it

[wary roost]

ho do i do that?

[lean star]

step 3 on the mod page Start Stardew Valley with Natural Color by clicking on "Natural Color - Launcher" [...]

[languid trout]

The stardew valley executables missing means you placed it anywhere but the Stardew Valley root folder

[lean star]

is Natural Color - Launcher in the same folder as the Stardew Valley.exe?

[languid trout]

Can you show us where you extracted the Natural Color contents?

[wary roost]

i didnt ;-;

[lean star]

you didn't... extract it?

[wary roost]

noo..... oopsa

[languid trout]

But you did, otherwise that menu wouldn't even open

[wary roost]

wait

[lean star]

oh you can totally run anything within a .zip on win10

[wary roost]

do i right click and extract here?

[lean star]

it's just a temporary folder, doesn't do you any good though

[sacred remnant]

yes

[wary roost]

yes?

[lean star]

yes

[wary roost]

done

[lean star]

try again

[wary roost]

do i js open stardew now

[languid trout]

(Looking back at the picture, I just realized what you mean. I just sorta filled the blanks in my brain and assumed it was smapi light mode. 🤦‍♂️)

[lean star]

run the Launcher.bat again

[wary roost]

kk

ATEE I DID IT

TY YALL

[lean star]

you got me curious there, had to try it myself
you still need to run the batch once for the setup, there is an option for 1.5.5 that allows injection without having to run the launcher EVERY time

must have slipped their mind when they wrote the description

[languid trout]

( I dunno why I'm surprised by the fact you had to launch it every time prior to that through the injector, but I only started learning to make mods late December. some of the things I've seen as workarounds for pre 1.5 and 1.5.5 are wild.)

(BUT! That's a topic for modded games, whenever I find something weird like people being told to install and run a third party Java script for BFAV .jsons back when you had to manually add the mods to the config for the framework.)

[wary roost]

did it but now im waiting 10 minutes for it to open..ugh

https://tenor.com/view/dog-hacker-pupper-hacker-pupper-corgi-gif-17954808

[lean star]

then you might be looking at hardware limitations, you're setup might just not be beefy enough to start the game faster with a reshade

[wary roost]

ive used reshades b4 and i didnt face any problems 😦

[languid trout]

Well, this one is affecting how the base game displays color in general, and isn't a simple overlay like recolors.
Recolor =/= Reshader, and all Reshaders I know of have to be injected

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_lags_or_stutters_in-game

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/19454

Here's a list of resources in general for you to troubleshoot lag that might be based on processing power and the like. It's less modded support and more a general user guide to help run the game faster based on your own computer settings. That said, Fastloads optimizes logic to speed up load times when playing modded stardew until 1.6 launches, which will have the same improvements baked in.

Hi all, I'm curious if it's ok to discuss Pathoschild/SMAPI here, I'd like to create a PR for the project to add an environment variable SMAPI_PREFER_TERMINAL_NAME to select the terminal on linux that the game will start up in. I'm not sure if the maintainers will like this change. The maintainers don't seem to like discussing this in github issues.

thank u

[neat plaza]

powershell exists crossplatform (iirc) but it's really notworth it

[languid trout]

A lot of things aren't installed properly and are missing files-Did they download a pack, are they using a mod manager like Vortex?

[olive geode]

i sent him the pack i used

[languid trout]

As in, a zip file?
(Don't do that, that's mod pirating) or a mod collection pack? (Also a 'don't do that.' But mostly because they're not maintained and require Vortex)
In any case, all mods with errors are missing files and have to be re-downloaded

And in case they ask...

!vortex

Using Vortex Mod Manager with Stardew Valley has the risk of your mods not getting installed properly, and other issues. Consider doing manual mod installation or using Stardrop, a mod manager that was purpose built for SDV, instead!

(It's generally recommended for people to send over mods for multiplayer since mods have to match - that said, if it's not for multiplayer use, definitely mod piracy)

[dire fractal]

Do individual mods need to be updated as per the SMAPI update?

Or are they like not affected by SMAPI updates

I think my issue is that my computer won't install SMAPI, how can I check if its running for sure when I launch Stardew?

^Macos btw

MacOs*

[languid trout]

The console pops up when running modded, and you'd have a Mods folder in the Stardew Valley root folder

sighs one second

[wary roost]

bruh

[dire fractal]

send a link to your smapi log, and the bot will tell you whats wrong

[prime stirrup]

are the mods fine to download seeing it's listed as 1.2?

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1167?tab=files

[wary roost]

how do i check that, i forgot

[prime stirrup]

here's the mod, i just want shane to be less shitty and not lose that redemption arch he had

[languid trout]

We just talked about this. No.

Do not download that please

[wary roost]

oh tysm, just saw this

[languid trout]

Mod error, not user error

[prime stirrup]

kk

my next option was this so ehhttps://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1061

[dire fractal]

Okay yea, so the console is not popping up when I launch Stardew

[languid trout]

Click the content patcher version

[dire fractal]

I have a Mods folder, all my mods are there unzipped and ready. But no console.

[languid trout]

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

[prime stirrup]

is 1.1

[inland oyster]

Are you launching smapi

[inland oyster]

Oh god

[languid trout]

Was it created by smapi or you?

[wary roost]

https://smapi.io/log/b6feee8e084843a7a628cfc2be46c9e4

[native dragon]

Log Info: SMAPI 3.18.6 with SDV 1.5.6 (build 22018) on Microsoft Windows 10 Home, with 5 C# mods and 2 content packs.
Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[prime stirrup]

dammit, why're all the shane mods so old-

[inland oyster]

When was it even released

[wary roost]

the only mod out of date is cute valley but when i try updating it, it says the same thing

[prime stirrup]

2018

[inland oyster]

Damn

[prime stirrup]

that probably explains it-

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8729?tab=files
there's this one that's from 2021

so ig it's less worse?

[languid trout]

Read the file description, it should mention Content patcher, can't check it because that version number means nothing outside of 'this is the version key for Smapi to see' and has nothing to do with game version

[wary roost]

can sm1 help meh

[dire fractal]

I've deleted everything SMAPI related and Im just gonna try reinstalling my mods and SMAPI, see if that works. It bugged out and I had to manually replace all my mods in that folder, take everything out and redo it. So maybe it registered as ME creating that mods folder and not smapi

[languid trout]

Gianna that's just the mod being formatted incorrectly

There's nothing we can fix, you did nothing wrong, the mod is just broken

[wary roost]

so do i just remove it

[languid trout]

It says cabins, which means as long as you don't build cabins, you'll see everything the mod has to offer.

And the cabins would just default to the regular texture.

[prime stirrup]

gimmie a second and see if the mod downloads

[dire fractal]

id pay for pathoschild to walk me through this 🙏

my computer refuses to install SMAPI so i think that's the problem:/

[languid trout]

These...aren't really mod support questions. If it's 2021 and lists content patcher as a required file it's perfectly fine.

[scarlet quail]

When you run the SMAPI installer, duncas, what happens

[languid trout]

Read mod descriptions, they tell you everything you need to know.

[modest grail]

I've definitely run SMAPI on Mac before, though it's been over a year since I did so.

[dire fractal]

It won't open my mac terminal and install it. Just runs an error saying -126 this application cannot be opened "Termina;"

Oh i have as well, this is the first day ever i've had this problen

[scarlet quail]

Did you happen to verify files recently at all?

[dire fractal]

i did

[scarlet quail]

that's probably your issue

Verifying files is necessary sometimes on Macs

But when you do, it uninstalls SMAPI

it can't be run most likely since you're attempting to run SMAPI when it isn't installed

[dire fractal]

right, so i try reinstalling SMAPI and my computer wont let me :(

[scarlet quail]

Again, what happens when you try running the installer?

If the installer doesn't work, then have you tried the manual installer instructions in the readme?

[modest grail]

Out of curiosity, because this is an "Application cannot be opened" error-- does the Terminal app open when you click it manually?

[dire fractal]

I did do the manual installer instructions to no avail

[modest grail]

That's a Mac issue.

[dire fractal]

Yes it does

[modest grail]

ok

If you try to run the SMAPI installer with Terminal already open, what happens?

[dire fractal]

same error

[prime stirrup]

it downloaded as just this 9kb file

[dire fractal]

im used to windows, this is my gf's pc they use stardew on. they've used Mods for years and have never had this issue, so that's why we're both stuck

[scarlet quail]

Honestly Duncas I agree with fireredlily that it looks like it's an issue with the Mac itself

[dire fractal]

hmm

[modest grail]

Have they recently run an Mac OS update by chance?

[scarlet quail]

a broken update or something based on relevant google fu. I should probably ask Logo if they're around since they're the resident mac expert

[dire fractal]

okay, someone pinged them earlier

[modest grail]

Because that is reading to me like the file permissions for Terminal are broken.

[dire fractal]

i can see if theres an update

that is what i thought, its funny cause I drag the file and manually put it into terminal

but i can't execute anything from that

so it recognizes the file, but can't do anything with it lmao

[modest grail]

Alternatively, it could be a a security setting blocking SMAPI from running.

[languid trout]

For dialogue that's a pretty normal file size

[dire fractal]

there is a rather large update for mac, should i just update see if that fixes it?

praying for apple not to ruin my life here

🙏

[modest grail]

Depends on the update

I'd honestly hold off on the Mac update if it's not your computer until your gf OKs it

[dire fractal]

ya they have no problem with it, they just dying for stardew at this point

im just worried this update isnt compatable with the SMAPI update

[languid trout]

(Considering we have Mac users that also make mods in the alpha, I'm pretty sure any issues with Apple updates would've been noted. That said, updates are based on user preference, so like fireredlily said just wait.)

[modest grail]

duncas, are you following these instructions: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Mac_Pictorial_Guide ?

[dire fractal]

yes i am

[modest grail]

Do you get the security prompt when attempting to run the command file?

[dire fractal]

omg i got it

i wiped my pc of every single thing related to smapi and it worked

but i followed that guide exactly and it worked

you're the GOAT

lets see once i install my mods what happens LOL

[modest grail]

Awesome!

[dire fractal]

thank you for your help honestly

means a lot!

[viral sky]

so my kid is invisible and idk why, I had previous mods installed to change the kids to make them their own NPCs with dialogue and stuff but I removed all of them and its still invisible?

[stark horizon]

Issue resolved? Silly discord lag…I just got the pong.

*ping

[modern python]

ping pong

and yes it seems to be resolved

[modest grail]

Yeah, I was able to help them out thankfully. ❤️

[harsh swallow]

Why do my protraits look like this? I thought i isntalled it properly. Using DCBUrgers High Res Portraits ;/

The guide said to just drop all the png files into the Portraitarue folder

[trail ocean]

Can someone help me get my greenhouse mod to work?

[proven pewter]

Sure! what have you tried so far, and what isn't working?

[trail ocean]

One sec

I think I figured it out

[proven pewter]

which version did you download?
DCBurger has a cp/pytk version and a portraiture version

[trail ocean]

Yeah nvm

Now I just need to find a mod that fix the greenhouse layout lol

Do you guys happens to know one?

[proven pewter]

"fix"?

[trail ocean]

The sprinklers layout

[proven pewter]

ah yeah there's quite a few with larger/smaller plots that work better with sprinklers

[trail ocean]

Can you link me one?

[proven pewter]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5431
disclaimer: self-promotion

[harsh swallow]

uh I guesss content patches since it says CP before the modname

[trail ocean]

Is it configurable?

[proven pewter]

then don't put it in the portraiture folder, install it like a regular mod

[proven pewter]

yes

[trail ocean]

Can I turn off the second part?

I don't really want it

[harsh swallow]

but when i ran it as a normal mod the portrait would still look messed up :/ hence why i put em into the folder

[proven pewter]

in that case I would recommend a different greenhouse mod. there's one I think you might like, gimem a sec to find it

[proven pewter]

do you have pytk installed?

[proven pewter]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4137

[harsh swallow]

yeah

[trail ocean]

That's perfect

Ty

[proven pewter]

there's also this one
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/16405

and you're very welcome!

[trail ocean]

Now I can't decide which one to choose

😭

[viral sky]

just to add to this, my baby is disappearing in both multiplayer and single player and idk why cus I removed all the mods that tweak the kids

[proven pewter]

🤔 not sure then. Maybe download the other version and put it in the portraiture folder?

[south quartz]

Hi Friends 🙂 I am a new modder and I have a question (originally posted in NexusMods server)
Hello 🙂 I just have a question about the mods for changing hairstyles. (long message but includes troubleshooting I have tried).
I am trying to change my hairstyle, but I can't change it from the style I picked when starting file. I have downloaded all the required tools (fashion sense etc.) and I can use the mirror, change accessories, hats, clothes etc., but I can't access any hairstyles, I have tried different mods and none of them seem to work :/ Any suggestions?

[proven pewter]

that's a vanilla thing

use the shrine of illusions in the wizard's basement

(I thought FS let you change it as well but maybe not?)

you tried clicking the scissor button right?

[south quartz]

BLESS! THANK YOU SO MUCH! Only downloaded SVE a couple days ago so I will give that a go

[south quartz]

Yes

[proven pewter]

shrine of illusions is from the base game, it's not an SVE thing

[south quartz]

Oh right. Thank you for the help!

[harsh swallow]

Could it be cause im using pytk lite? i tried removing portrature and it just straight up removed most portraits :/

[proven pewter]

tbh I'm not sure what the differences between pytk and pytk lite are

[harsh swallow]

this is how other from another mod show up too askdjd

[late crow]

i remember there being a dependancy called HD portraits but i could be completely wrong and thinking of another mod

[harsh swallow]

Oh i'll see into that. It wasnt on the "requirements" tab on the mods i downloaded so i wouldnt have known

[proven pewter]

there's two different high-res portrait frameworks available right now- Portraiture and HD Portraits. most mods are made for one or the other and can't used with both

there's also some mods that use pytk for sprite scaling instead which aren't managed by either

[haughty urchin]

Can someone help me? I have a problem with the Happy Birthday mod where every time I enter the game Lewis asks my birthday, is there a way to fix this? I play on mobile

[proven pewter]

(though pytk is not specifically for portraits)

[haughty urchin]

?

[languid trout]

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

Android SMAPI does not currently work for versions of SDV past 1.5.6.39. We do not know if or when it will be made compatible. It is not possible to downgrade to .39 through legal means so do not ask how to do this.

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.

[languid trout]

!androidcompat

[native dragon]

An incomplete list of android compatible mods can be found at https://android.stardew.rocks. If you find a mod that isn't on there, submit it by following the instructions here.

[languid trout]

Absolutely cannot help you with mobile mods but I can hand you the current, incompletr 'semi-functioning' mod list

[haughty urchin]

Thanks

[dawn ivy]

hewwo i'd like to backup my game, so i copy/paste the stardew valley folder thats in my steamapps>common path and drop it somewhere else like my desktop?

[scarlet quail]

!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)

[scarlet quail]

pretty much, but follow instructions above

thx

[twilit vessel]

Does anyone know of any recolours/reshade mods on nexus mods that work with SVE and Ridgeside Valley?

I thought about downloading DaisyNiko's Earthy Recolour, but wanted to verify it worked for them before i did so

[languid trout]

All reshades work with all expansions

Recolors is based on the mod description

[oak forum]

Daisys links the other mods that cover those areas. I use the SVE one

It's just a black screen

[proven pewter]

!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.

[proven pewter]

also make sure both of you are using the exact same mods with the exact same versions and configs

[maiden nacelle]

He's trying to do that, but its literally the entire game so It's taking a bit

[proven pewter]

just kill the game and then get the log

if he's on windows just have him alt + f4

[gaunt gust]

Remove the RandomNPCs file from Market Day

[maiden nacelle]

OH you were right

thank you so much

[trail ocean]

Does anyone know what's causing this?

I can't cook

And there's this weird pixel on the top left corner of the house

[languid trout]

So, that might be an issue with the mod itself and you're better off checking the mod page description, bugs and comments section to see if it's been reported yet.
The only other thing that could be happening is you have a mod that affects cooking running rampant.

[trail ocean]

It started happening after I installed the no built in kitchen mod

To use the buildable kitchen one

[languid trout]

Again, sounds like a mod page description/comments section issue. /gen.

But I guess I can look at your log

@supple moon Click on the link in THIS message

[supple moon]

no i have the link open on my browser

[scarlet quail]

yes, and?

[supple moon]

it told me to open it on smapi

[scarlet quail]

No, it didn't

[languid trout]

No it didn't.

[scarlet quail]

we can read the instructions on the page, we know it doesn't.

Please go over the instructions again.

[languid trout]

It told you to follow these three instructions.

/side note, I'm not mad, but you need to actually read so we can help you, okay?

[scarlet quail]

(We are willing to help, for the record. We do need you to give the log for us to properly help.)

[supple moon]

what? it says on the smapi thing that shows up before i can open my stardew on steam it says to open that exact link

[scarlet quail]

(We're only being blunt about this because this is a cornerstone of SDV modding that you must figure out.)

[robust bison]

that link is the website you're on

[supple moon]

yes

[robust bison]

which is telling you to upload the log to the website

[scarlet quail]

Sunny. We need you to open said exact link and follow the instructions on that site

[languid trout]

Which is the same link we sent you.

[scarlet quail]

if you are looking at SMAPI itself at any point in this process, you dun fucked up

[supple moon]

i am on that site i already had it open

[robust bison]

follow the instructions

[scarlet quail]

So follow the instructions on it

[supple moon]

i was looking at the smapi thing to see the extra stuff k needed to download i know theres other issues but i didnt actually download everything beforehand

[scarlet quail]

It does not tell you to open SMAPI on the site. Chirps specifically screenshotted the instructions

j am im just explaining because i was confused as to why you kept saying it didnt tell me to open the link

[scarlet quail]

Okay, regardless, since I'm not really wanting to get into a semantic argument right now

Follow the instructions.

[robust bison]

can you delete and reinstall the mods with issues and tell me if anything changes?

[scarlet quail]

And if you have problems finding it, then tell us where you are having problems.

[median eagle]

idk why its doing it there

it just happened after i installed more walls and floors for AT

which mod are you talking about?

[languid trout]

And if the mods it says you don't have installed are in the mods folder, double check they aren't zipped.

Nothing about AT is an issue, but DGA rugs is missing

[robust bison]

you have several that aren't loading but I'm focusing on the mead one rn

[supple moon]

right i just have other issues for other mods which is why i wanted to send the photos of all my issues because i believe theres more, ill reread it and update im just asking for help

[scarlet quail]

......

sunny

In no point of this process should you ever send photos.

[robust bison]

please just upload the log

[scarlet quail]

the log will contain all of your errors

[median eagle]

think i found out why...but i still dont know why gourmet pantry is being ingored

[broken rivet]

it worked thank you!!

[scarlet quail]

do not continue to explain "more issues", give the log

[robust bison]

np

[supple moon]

if you say so

[scarlet quail]

We cannot help you properly without it, pictures will only serve to cause issues

[supple moon]

ill update you

okayyy what now i added the um the log and, am i supposed to debug it?

[scarlet quail]

parse the log, then share the link here.

[robust bison]

and share the link here?

[scarlet quail]

If you do not get something like this, then you have done it wrong

[median eagle]

found out there were folders in folders

meaning sub-subfolders

[supple moon]

so copy and paste? https://smapi.io/log/025f66d9340b47ab86cd75e1ea219ccc

[languid trout]

...Wait didn't we have this issue before?

[scarlet quail]

.........

sunny

I'm going to be blunt - do NOT copy and paste from the console

[languid trout]

Was...that copy pasted?

[pallid summit]

no way this isn't a new record

[scarlet quail]

get the SMAPI-latest file

[robust bison]

might need to autolog atp

[supple moon]

what? what do i send here then? thats what it tells me to share? im so confused

[scarlet quail]

you send the file known as SMAPI-latest.

[median eagle]

go to your app data and go to roaming

[scarlet quail]

The instructions to get it are on the log page

[median eagle]

the stardew folder should be there

[supple moon]

it says "share this link to get someone else to see the log" what am i supposed to send?

[scarlet quail]

Do not boot SMAPI. The only thing you should have open through this process aside from having the instructions up is file explorer

[compact verge]

sunny, the site has these instructions1. Press the Windows and R buttons at the same time. 2. In the 'run' box that appears, enter this exact text: %appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs 3 The log file is SMAPI-crash.txt if it exists, otherwise SMAPI-latest.txt.Do these exactly.

[supple moon]

i did.

[scarlet quail]

no, you did not.

[robust bison]

you sent the correct link to us, however what you uploaded to the website was incorrect

[scarlet quail]

Instead of finding the file and dragging and dropping it into the parser, you copy/pasted from the console

you should only be dragging a text file into the parser

[median eagle]

forget it...im removing my new walls and floors

[supple moon]

i uploaded the smapi-latest.txt cus that was the only one i have

[compact verge]

Upload the entire SMAPI-crash.txt or SMAPI-latest.txt to the site. Not just the bit that gives you an error.

[median eagle]

-_- idk why its causing issues when i have dga and at installed

[scarlet quail]

Drag and drop that SMAPI-latest into the parser.

The entire thing

Do not copy paste anything from inside it

drag the entire file into the parser.

As if you're moving something from a desktop into a folder

[scarlet quail]

finally

Alright, so.

You downloaded the mods, but not their dependencies

[median eagle]

idk anymore i just quit!

[scarlet quail]

Every mod you download has mods listed under the "requirements" tab.

[median eagle]

It's saying that gouret pantry is missing when its clearly there!

It's in the friggin mega pack!

[scarlet quail]

Don't download anything under "mods requiring this file", but under "mod requirements" you must download everything unless it says optional.

You cannot just use Ridgeside, Date Night, Downtown Zuzu, SVE, etc. without their relevant submods

There's also

!uiinfosuite

[native dragon]

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

[scarlet quail]

Since I see that there too.

[supple moon]

right, yk im just actually going to do this myself lol cus ur telling me everything that the site already told me, sorry for wasting your time i just thought there would yk something else

[compact verge]

The log says that the Walls and Floors mod need that to work. The Gourmet Pantry thing is another issue entirely.

[scarlet quail]

This is why finding the log is helpful!

[supple moon]

i downloaded alot of the requirements but apparently not all? i did dowlnoad everything expanded needed according to nexus

[robust bison]

gourmet pantry isn't loaded so it either got deleted or isn't actually part of the megapack

[median eagle]

I jsut removed the walls and floros...how do i fix the pantry

[scarlet quail]

Remember to unzip the stuff into the mods folder

[median eagle]

it is

everything is unzipped

[robust bison]

it's not loaded

[languid trout]

You either didn't or you never extracted them.

[supple moon]

yup i did! extracting them is how thats done correct? because thats what i did

[languid trout]

Did you put them in the actual Mods folder
Or did you unzip them into the mod itself?

Those are frameworks that need to be in the Mods folder.

Not inside the mod that requires them.

[supple moon]

can i please send a photo of the files i have just to doublecheck i extracted them correctly? i extracted them and put them in my sdv folder i have it autoset on extract to mods

i dont hae to send a pic actually

[scarlet quail]

That you can send a pic of

[supple moon]

alr

[scarlet quail]

and in fact we'd request it

[supple moon]

one sec

[scarlet quail]

Preferably, though, we need the filepath visible

[median eagle]

kitchen blender is from the pantry which is included in the mega pack

[gaunt gust]

!sve

[native dragon]

Stardew Valley Expanded (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3753) is a mod which adds a lot of new content and areas to the game. It has many dependencies, so be sure to follow the install guide which is on the github wiki along with FAQs and troubleshooting steps for common issues: https://github.com/FlashShifter/StardewValleyExpanded/wiki
It's recommended to play Stardew Valley Expanded on a fresh save file to avoid potential issues.

[gaunt gust]

See pictorial guide

[robust bison]

ok looking at the mega pack it seems it's not the individual mods packaged but rewritten for the mega pack? in which case you would need to remove gourmet pantry as a dependency from that mod

[median eagle]

how

i never had this issue til now

[languid trout]

Wait you're the one that was removing folders from the megapack!

[median eagle]

it would load normally last night

no

[supple moon]

id rather get help step by step as i ask for it, thanks though!

[median eagle]

I haven't touched the folders from the pack only to edit the producer rules

[supple moon]

i like having peopke actually teach me thats how i learn personally

(which is why i joined to begin with)

[robust bison]

well, all I can tell you is that the mod requires a mod with the ID wildflour.gourmetpantry and you don't have a mod with that ID loaded

[languid trout]

I just checked, we had this conversation 9 days ago about you stripping subfolders out of the mother folder that were codependent

And then they wouldn't load

[scarlet quail]

Chirps coming in with receipts

[median eagle]

cause its part of the megapack if i added it in it'll say theres dupes

and clog up the console

[supple moon]

oh yeah is it possible to mod xbox stardew? i dint think so but i’m wondering because im a cross platform user and im new to modding

[scarlet quail]

depends on what you mean by xbox

console, no

!gamepasssmapi

[native dragon]

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

[compact verge]

Do you have a separate folder called Jams in the mods folder?

[supple moon]

thatd be sick cus im personally better at console

[median eagle]

yes i have it

[compact verge]

Yes, that's the problem. Delete that.

[median eagle]

o.o

[supple moon]

alr i thought so, thanks!

[median eagle]

will it say now folder is missing

[compact verge]

Jams is Specialty Jams and Jellies. It needs the standalon Gourmet Pantry mod to work.

[robust bison]

you cannot mod the xbox console

[median eagle]

ah

[supple moon]

yup i was already told! thanks tho!

[compact verge]

Specialty Jams and Jellies should already been included in the Megapack. So what you needed to do is to delete the standalone Jam folder, not the jam items in the megapack.

[median eagle]

[SMAPI] - Specialty Ales and Meads because it's an empty folder.
[SMAPI] - Specialty Pickles and Salsas 2.0.1 because it requires mods which aren't installed (wildflour.gourmetpantry).

[supple moon]

wakt maybe i shouldve just played xbox-pc then for modding jnstead of buying it on steam 😞 oh well!

[median eagle]

nope

ignore meads

[supple moon]

heres everything i have in my folder (dw abt it being my own sdv mod folder, its linked to the mod folder in the game itself)

[scarlet quail]

....

no it isn't

[supple moon]

that took ages to send lol sorry

[scarlet quail]

That's why we've been saying we needed the filepath visible

[compact verge]

Also delete the folder called Pickles.

[scarlet quail]

none of those are loading per the log

[supple moon]

?? wait ill show you

[scarlet quail]

It doesn't matter what you show me sunny

[languid trout]

That's not in your stardew valley Mods folder.

[scarlet quail]

the log tells me all.

[languid trout]

That is a folder you named SDV mods...

[scarlet quail]

If you symlinked or w/e it is, it doesn't work

and will not work

[echo goblet]

I did update all my mods, some manifests are outdated

[pallid summit]

that is not your mods folder. that's just a folder you called "sdv mods"

[scarlet quail]

It is far simpler anyway to move it into the mods folder

[robust bison]

if I see a picture of vortex next I'm gonna cry

[scarlet quail]

If I see Vortex I'm noping out

My sanity has a limit

[robust bison]

I'm assuming based on the error you need to get your dusty mods fixed

[supple moon]

here

[oak forum]

I love you and you're doing great lyoko and arcane!

[supple moon]

for some reason my laptop doesnt save the mods folder so i had to do it that way

[echo goblet]

Most likely, I'll check it out. Thanks Arcane!

[scarlet quail]

Yeah, those in the second screen are loading

[robust bison]

wdym it doesn't save the mods folder

[scarlet quail]

But the ones you showed us earlier aren't

[languid trout]

!findmodsfolder

[native dragon]

Your Mods folder should be in your game folder after you install SMAPI. See here for more information on finding it: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Find_your_game_folder
If you use Steam, you can also right click on the game name > Manage > Browse Local Files.

[scarlet quail]

This

[scarlet quail]

And this are not the same location

I repeat - they are not the same location

[robust bison]

you have 2 sdv mods folders

one is in the mods folder, which are loading, and somewhere else which isn't

[supple moon]

oh its the same folder! im sorry i should’ve definitely sent it this way the first time, i wasnt aware that there was a difference, but i promise you its the exact same folder both times!

[scarlet quail]

No it isn't

[robust bison]

it's not

[scarlet quail]

I promise you it isn't because I can see the filepath

[median eagle]

ok problem fixed thanks

[scarlet quail]

the filepath of your own images tells me it is not

[robust bison]

sunny neill>sdv mods != Stardew Valley>Mods>sdv mods

[supple moon]

the mod one that smapi provides wont show up on my pc for some reason (i just cant find it) so i made my own to add into the mod folder via steam

[scarlet quail]

that isn't how it works

[pallid summit]

(they also have different contents)

[scarlet quail]

You cannot do that

The ones that SMAPI provides in fact is showing up

Your log is saying it is

[supple moon]

i dragged and dropped it into the mod folder, is that the issue?

[scarlet quail]

No.

[supple moon]

when i press it on steam yes!

[scarlet quail]

sunny. I cannot stress this enough.

You are wrong.

They are not the same folder

The one you created will not work.

[robust bison]

we need you to take all of the mods in this folder and move them over to the other folder

[scarlet quail]

Arcane is correct.

As long as you have them in the wrong folder, SMAPI won't load them

[languid trout]

I sent a command so you can find the folder you think doesn't exist.

[scarlet quail]

For simplicity, please delete that first folder so that we don't ever get confused again.

[echo goblet]

I did take out the dusty mod, and it worked. Thank you again Arcane, I'll let the mod creator know if I get time

[scarlet quail]

So long as you have them in the wrong folder, we cannot proceed forward with helping you, as the game will not recognize you have them.

[supple moon]

alr ill try

[languid trout]

@supple moon

If you do not know where it is, here you go.

[supple moon]

wait

i need help with something

everytime i change folders the mod folder disappears

[scarlet quail]

... Not sure why there's a video

[supple moon]

how do i find my downloads?

[pallid summit]

what

[supple moon]

its easier for me to explain things when i talk

can i use voice notes? im better at talking then texting

[robust bison]

do yourself a favor first and pin the correct mods folder to your favorites

[scarlet quail]

Well, while I'm not listening to that whole video, dragging through the runtime shows that you were in the right mods folder at the end there.

[supple moon]

whenever i leave the mods folder i cant find it anymkre, its ib my acer folder

[robust bison]

.

[supple moon]

rightt i forgot we can do that

lol thanks

[supple moon]

dw homie i scroll up constantly i was getting to you

[languid trout]

I just SENT YOU A LIN-

[scarlet quail]

(They know where the mods folder is Chirps)

(Mute the video and drag to the end, they navigated to it themselves)

So they know where it is but seem to believe it's not correct for some reason.

[supple moon]

i was in the sdv mod folder that i put inside the correct mod folder

[supple moon]

via steam

if you watch the video youd see i had to reopen files via steam to find it

[scarlet quail]

... that makes no sense

And yes, of course you did

Because that's how you should find it in the first place

[supple moon]

for some reason it wasnt showing up on my actual files only through steam

[scarlet quail]

Yeah that also tracks

[supple moon]

i pinned it to quick access tho

[robust bison]

ok good

[supple moon]

but thats why i made sdv mods

[scarlet quail]

well, in the future, never make a mods folder

[robust bison]

go to your sdv mods folder ( the "incorrect" one)

[scarlet quail]

That won't work and only serves to cause confusion

[supple moon]

will it allow me to put ghe files into mod if i have them there via sdv mods?

[languid trout]

(Alright, I'm good now. Don't change folder names, just remember Mods is the correct one, use that as a default location.)

You can move mods there, but it's more efficient to not have a middleman?

[scarlet quail]

... you can have subfolders in your mod folder, if that's what you're talking about

[supple moon]

cus my last issue when i tried something else which was also a wrong approach was duplicate files

[supple moon]

yesyes i know i just mean

ok wait can i use a voice note

[languid trout]

It only duplicated because multiple mods or extractions.

[scarlet quail]

But given how troubleshooting has gone so far, it seems like a problem

I mean, to be upfront I'm generally never going to listen to video files or audio notes for helping

text only

Others might, but I personally will not

[supple moon]

i mean like umm do i have to remove sdv mods from mods in order to actually put the mods i have into the correct folder

[robust bison]

they way you currently have the sdv mods folder in your actual mods folder is fine

we just need to to move all of the mods in the wrong folder to somewhere in your actual Mods folder

[scarlet quail]

If I'm parsing your incredibly confusing statement correctly, you cannot simply move the wrong sdv mods folder into your Mods folder at present since it will cause duplicates

[supple moon]

alr, i just have dyslexia so its a little rough to have long conversations over text bc i end up mixing up my words

i can do it tho its preffered

[scarlet quail]

if you move the incorrect one into the correct mods folder, you will need to delete the current sdv mods folder within the correct Mods folder

[robust bison]

I will watch videos and listen to voice notes if required but I think we can figure this out by text

[supple moon]

i mean yhe sdv mods is already there, do i have to remove it from the folder to add the individual mods to the correct folder

[scarlet quail]

... come again?

[supple moon]

this is what i mean, i put it there hours ago

[scarlet quail]

Okay. So I see that there.

What are you trying to do, precisely?

Try and break it down into small steps for me

[supple moon]

im wondering if i have to delete it from the mods folder in order to add the mods that i put in the folder there individually

[scarlet quail]

honestly?

Yes.

[supple moon]

the video i watched earlier told me to create that folder and put it there

[scarlet quail]

I could equivocate or try and be more accurate

But yes will suffice since this ends up otherwise being madness to try and be completely accurate

[supple moon]

jeads up: i definitely will do it that way but theres 10 mods that are in the mod folder that exact way that do work

[scarlet quail]

Correct

[supple moon]

but id rather all then 10 so i will take yoir advice

[scarlet quail]

Those 10 will stop working if you put all the mods from that previous SDV folder into the current one

Which is why I told you to delete that folder if you're moving the ones from the wrong one into the right one

[supple moon]

okay!!

rhe confusion is because of a video i watched earlier if this helps at all

[scarlet quail]

And to that I say

[supple moon]

so delete it and put all my mods in the mods folder? got it

[scarlet quail]

!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.

[scarlet quail]

Esp. soon

With 1.6 on the horizon, video guides will be very bad, esp. if it tells you to use XNB mods

[supple moon]

honestly i dont learn correctly that way, i need someone to actively teach me step by step and tell ne what im doing wrong because any and all video tutorials confuse me

[supple moon]

yea thats partially why i came here instead cus i knew the video was somehow incorrect

wait

it says i cant delete it

[scarlet quail]

... is SMAPI open?

[supple moon]

nope i just closed it

refresh?

[scarlet quail]

If you just closed it, that's why

As long as it's open, you couldn't just delete the folder, because it was in use.

Try now.

[supple moon]

i closed it because it said i couldnt and after i closed it it still says i cant

[scarlet quail]

Give an image of the error you're getting.

...preferably include the taskbar so we know SMAPI isn't running.

[supple moon]

wait nevermind its not in rhe folder anymore

that was weird

also btw im not gonna delete sdv mods on my pc as a whole because that’s where my current extracted files are and its easier than searching through downloads

in the future ill have extracted files gi straight to mods instead

thats just there for now incase i need it for anything for organizing

its out of mods tho somehow

wait shit i lost track

itll tell me kf theres duplicates rifht

yea it should

[scarlet quail]

yeah, it will

If there is, please give a new log.

[supple moon]

should i replace or cancel

does ot make a difference

[scarlet quail]

you should never get that prompt

If you are, then you have something in your mod folder that's a duplicate

[scarlet quail]

if you're talking from this prompt, delete any folder in here that has "Coii's" in it

then move all the folders in

[supple moon]

yep exactly! so do i cancel the move or?

i lost track of whats in there so i will get that prompt

[scarlet quail]

Cancel the move, delete the original that's already in the mod folder, replace with the one outside the mod folder

[supple moon]

its another one because i started and lost track

[scarlet quail]

Never use the prompt to replace things

[supple moon]

ao press replace? that autodeletes it

[supple moon]

mm okay ill cancel the move then

anyone wanna hekp me sift ghrough the dupes?

im kinda bad at reading small print

ots gard for me to be fully sure

[scarlet quail]

Tbh I'm having trouble seeing why you'd have dupes

[supple moon]

ill send after i think i got iy

[scarlet quail]

just move all the mods into the correct mod folder at once

no need to go one by one

[supple moon]

because i have a horrific attention span

apparently i had a few dupes

dw abt it this happens with me

i *think * i got it??

[scarlet quail]

Looks fine. Now boot up SMAPI.

[supple moon]

alrighty!!

[scarlet quail]

It'll tell you if it is actually fine

If it isn't, send another log

[supple moon]

okay!

okay so that helped but as i suspected a few still dont work, im gonna do the log thingy tho!

[supple moon]

is it the updates?

yea i think sooooo?

[scarlet quail]

...... honestly I'd start over

You've duped SVE, you're missing several dependencies outright still

[supple moon]

i duped yje game?

[scarlet quail]

...SVE, not SDV

SDV = Stardew (game), SVE = Stardew Valley Expanded

[supple moon]

i think theres easier fixes than starting over be more optimistic! ill find dependancies via smapi and ill delete the dupe

[scarlet quail]

also, that extra map layers is a shortcut

not a mod

I don't know how you made it a shortcut

But you need to delete and actually move the folder in

[supple moon]

me neither it somehow saved that way

i was confused too

[scarlet quail]

And you may think it's better to start over but you have a long list of missing dependencies - stuff like Quest Framework, Farm Type Manger, even Content Patcher

[supple moon]

ftm shows up in my sve folder

it came in the download

but its another addon perhaps?

[scarlet quail]

.... Okay. Look, I have to explain something to you

If it's in another mod's folder

it's not the mod

there is an FTM component of SVE, yes. SVE uses FTM as a dependency

But that doesn't mean the mod is in that folder. It means the data from SVE that FTM uses is in that folder.
