ctrl+shift for 25 at a time, if memory serves

[dusk marsh]

😐

ok

[livid lava]

yea i suspect that's the issue too, but when he opened the file in the sdv mod folder, all the asset pngs are in there, so im not sure why it still says that

[crude yew]

Or you could use stack split and a mod that changes stack sizes.

[scarlet quail]

Have them give their log

[livid lava]

oki

[scarlet quail]

As well as a photo of the assets missing That are actually in the folder, With file path visible

[dusk marsh]

@crude yew

[crude yew]

I mean you are saying that buying a stack at a time is too slow so...

[fickle gazelle]

Hello, can someone pleaseee help me :<. Im trying to update my smapi to the newest one but its telling me this when i try launching it "Unhandled exception. System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Runtime, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (0x80131040) File name: 'System.Runtime, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=************"

[crude yew]

Not sure what would be fast enough lol.

[dusk marsh]

bot

oh wait

[scarlet quail]

Do not update to 4.0

[fickle gazelle]

but the mods need newest oneee :<

[scarlet quail]

That is only for StardewValley 1.6

[dusk marsh]

some mods are there when the new update comes

[scarlet quail]

Do not use alpha versions of mods either

[dusk marsh]

no need to update when its for 1.6

go back

[fickle gazelle]

oh awkie

thank you for helping

[dusk marsh]

dont talk like this is a discord VC

[scarlet quail]

Reinstall 3.18.6 SMAPI and give a log If you still have issues afterward

Solo please don't be insulting to people

[fickle gazelle]

?

why mean

[dusk marsh]

forget it

[fickle gazelle]

unhappy person

[crude yew]

@dusk marsh https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/11866

[dusk marsh]

PERFECT!

oh wait

oh ok

yeah thanks

[crude yew]

Not sure if it works with StackSplitRedux but you can try.

[dusk marsh]

confused me for a sec

[dusk marsh]

aigt

[livid lava]

hii so i tried to get him to use the https://smapi.io/log and paste the file but he says there arent any files in that location😭

[scarlet quail]

That is not possible without them having never launched SMAPI

Have them keep that folder open and launch SMAPI

[livid lava]

ahh oops okay

[scarlet quail]

It should automatically write a log file as it boots to title

[livid lava]

got it

[livid lava]

https://smapi.io/log/dffd2156a2d24a4a93b878f4365907bf this is when he is in the game, when he joins our co-op world more of the lines at the end appear saying "cp cant apply image patch"

[scarlet quail]

.

Sorry I know it probably got missed

We will need the full file path by the way

[livid lava]

he says there are more files in the files and theyre all empty for the seasonal buildings mod

[scarlet quail]

Your prior image only showed a couple of folders which means we can't necessarily see where it's located

[livid lava]

ahh my bad, are these ones okay

[scarlet quail]

No

The ones that are missing are-

[scarlet quail]

First image here go into elle and then into overlays

Then show an image of the folder

[livid lava]

oki i'll ask him to do that now

[livid lava]

is this it?

[scarlet quail]

It is. The files the log says are missing are missing

You can check by navigating there yourself

There should be two extra files beneath those folders

[livid lava]

"half the items are pictures but the other half is just empty folders" this is what he says

[scarlet quail]

Yeah realistically speaking they need to freshly download the mod and reinstall it

If it still happens after that i'm suspecting an antivirus issue

And for the record the stuff should be pictures

That's what the mod needs to run

The empty folders are more concerning but nothing is being thrown

[strange shell]

Hey, I have a question about unzipped mods. I have a whole folder for unzipped mods and was wondering if there is any point in having this folder since I already extracted everything I needed.

[livid lava]

alright, ill ask him to turn off his antivirus and redownload those mods, thank u for the help! i hope it will work

[scarlet quail]

Do you mean zipped mods?

Because unzipped mods should be in the mod folder

.... Is Discord glitching because my words are going into my avatar

[strange shell]

oh yes I meant that c:

[scarlet quail]

Yeah then you can delete those if you want

[pallid summit]

it could be useful to have them saved in case you need to reinstall them and it isn't convenient to get to nexus (or other sites) and download fresh copies. otherwise, no

[scarlet quail]

I currently keep them as backups, but with 1.6 I'm probably going to yeet a bunch of them.

[strange shell]

Just to double check, having these zipped mods take up space, right?

[pallid summit]

(or if a mod you like becomes unavailable for whatever reason, which does happen, but that's beyond my level of paranoia for this pastime)

yes, if you save the files they use up disk space. most mods are not very big so i wouldn't worry about that unless you are really starved for storage space

[strange shell]

Oh, okay. Thank you for all of your guys feedback, very much appreciated! ❤️

[livid lava]

omg it works now THANK U SM!!!

[scarlet quail]

Let them know their antivirus is likely quarantining the mod files, so if they need to they can try and add exceptions or something for some mod stuff so they don't have to deactivate it

[livid lava]

[gusty flume]

lol i figured

[scarlet quail]

Which map is having the problem?

Specifically, where are you in-game that you see this

[gusty flume]

very begining was loading up the immersive 2, i just came back to play after a year or two

in the house the floor is black and outside day 1 year 1

[scarlet quail]

It's likely Color Valley, then

That's pre-1.5 too so highly likely it's the issue

[gusty flume]

Is there any analogue for Lookup Anything mod for mobile stardew or a way I can use Lookup Anything on mobile without F1?

[scarlet quail]

!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.

seems like it works, so you'd just change the hotkey or w/e

[quick pecan]

thanks!

[hollow anvil]

Long story short, i was playing multiplayer with myself (i had two stardew valleys opened) so i could upgrade a cabin with the extra farmer i made, it worked fine the first time a few days ago which was great, but when im trying to join now it wont let my extra farmer join the game, and it crashes and closes the tab

all i really want to do is move the bed out the way so if theres any mods for moving a claimed bed i can ignore the fact this is happening

(for context ive removed any mods that would mess up with the game so it cant possibly be that)

[molten flax]

hi to update my mods manually i delete them of from the folder and add the upated version? is that right

[robust bison]

yes

[molten flax]

thankyou

[shell bridge]

sorry for the repost but does anyoneencounter this issue with portraits?

[orchid bough]

hey guys

[orchid bough]

[mystic lodge]

@broken orchid Did you get the unnoficial update?

[quartz flare]

Hi! im new to modding matter of fact i have never modded. im trying to get expanded plus the farms that come with it. i have followed tuts and everything but something goes wrong everytime. the first time the Stardewmodding.api kept crashing. it wouldnt even go to the window. and this time the smapi isnt working :(. im very very new to modding i have only played on console till now im using a laptop (lincplus) and i have no idea what to do. for more context on "the smapi isnt working" im in the window that installs it. but its just saying "oops couldnt find the game automatically, type the file path to the game directory (the one cotaining stardew valley.dll), then press enter." help me please :''')
(totally didnt copy and paste this from the wrong channel...lol...)

[broken orchid]

wait lemme try again

i did but i didnt show in the game

its config

maybe the type is wrong

i want this shoes

[mystic lodge]

It should work tbh, I have the same values

Huh... weird Is your character bald or something (don't know why it would matter tbh, but it never showed for me)

[broken orchid]

no

i use some hair mods

its look like this

[broken orchid]

also in this file none of them have pointy feet like this

[ancient escarp]

so sorry if im interrupting at all but i accidentally used my return scepter when i was clicking through the fibs channel and now im unable to use the fibs channel without moving my furniture

ill send the error in a minute

[broken orchid]

i also tried this mod and it didnt work either
https://blog.naver.com/codnjsdl8235/222314151470

[neat plaza]

wdym "it didnt work"

[broken orchid]

it didnt appear

but i saw the mod in the mod config

i really hate my current shoes rn it looks so big for my outfits

i set all the configs in here but it didnt show in the game or loading screen

[visual jetty]

Do you have another mod editing the farmer base sprite? Maybe Seasonal Cute Characters?

[broken orchid]

lemme check

yes i have but this mod effect farmer? i thought it was for only villagers

[visual jetty]

Yup, you do! It's got a config to remove the farmer's nose and... edit the sleeves, I think? Try checking its config.

[broken orchid]

oh ok

so farmer base is off

nose and the shoes too?

[visual jetty]

I'm checking its content.json right now – I think just setting farmer base to false should be enough.

[broken orchid]

ok lemme try again

[visual jetty]

Oh, while I'm at it: Do me a favor and get GMCM to edit configs in-game.

!gmcm

[native dragon]

Generic Mod Config Menu (or GMCM https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5098) adds the option to edit some, but not all, mod configs from either the title screen or the options page in a save. It also has a special screen to edit keybinds for all mods with GMCM integration.

The presence of the gear it adds to the title screen is not a method for checking whether mods are installed, only whether GMCM is installed.

[broken orchid]

oh i have it already

[visual jetty]

Ah, even better. I just figured I'd mention it.
Speaking of mentioning stuff, good UI choice.

[broken orchid]

oh ty

umm it worked but now my character skin is white

[visual jetty]

I think that's related to the modded body you use, but I've next to no experience with that, sorry.

[broken orchid]

turn off skin and now it fixed

thank you so much btw im litterally trying for this an hour

[visual jetty]

Glad I could help! There are some things that aren't immediately obvious, but you develop an eye for them if you hang out in this server for long enough.

[broken orchid]

sorry but my arms seems a little bit different how can i fix this

[visual jetty]

No reason to apologize for asking for help, but I fear I'm out of my depth here. I've never used the peach body. I'm sure someone else will have an idea, though!

!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.

[scarlet quail]

if it stays on saving, your log is likely hemmorhaging red

[flat crater]

here’s my log c:

[scarlet quail]

Can you load a save that wasn't made with Save anywhere, then try to save by sleeping normally?

and yes, I'm assuming you removed it afterwards since it's not in your log

[flat crater]

i actually went back onto that same save, it had me on d1 of spring, i did nothing and just instaslept to see if it did it again, and it saved fine but i didn’t change anything. the red stuff was on page 3 of that same log.

[scarlet quail]

Yeah I see the red stuff

The problem is that stuff generally occurs from a Save Anywhere save

That said I do also see

02:04:24    WARN    SpaceCore    Exception migrating legacy save data: System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. (Parameter 'path1')
   at System.IO.Path.Combine(String path1, String path2)

   at SpaceCore.SpaceCore.OnSaveLoaded(Object sender, SaveLoadedEventArgs e) in C:\Programming\StardewValley\ModSource\SpaceCore\SpaceCore.cs:line 944

So you should probably remove SVE and RSV, play a day for the game to properly migrate data, then re-activate them

[ancient escarp]

anyone able to help?

[scarlet quail]

Sadly I definitely don't know about that one chandler

I would probably give a log and reset your files

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.)

[quartz hawk]

hello i have a question. im trying to add the dc portrait mod but it doesnt work for some reason can someone help me out.

[prisma bay]

Babes, please help me

I have been struggling with Smapi for 3 days now

[barren roost]

Oh I had an issue too but that was my error cause I forgot I already had a mod that affected the portraits, it could be that?

[prisma bay]

It won’t install, the closest I’ve gotten is entering where Stardew is on my computer, only for it to say “That directory doesn’t contain a Stardew Valley executable”

[quartz hawk]

i dont think so. other portrait mods work except that one. and i made sure i didnt have the same file installed. i added all the requirements but the they still wont show.

[prisma bay]

I am no tech person, idk how computers work

I am begging for someone’s assistance

I’m on Mac btw

[scarlet quail]

well uh

the game isn't on your desktop, right, Key?

[prisma bay]

I’ve been through Reddit, the forums, the wiki

[prisma bay]

What’s a desktop 😇

[scarlet quail]

Because if it is, I have questions on the legitimacy of the game

the thing you're typing into the SMAPI installer

you are typing, per the image you gave, Users/key/Desktop

so I have to assume you're trolling with that comment

[prisma bay]

Idk, I have a shortcut made - then I right click for more info and just copy and paste

[prisma bay]

No, I’m not

I do not know anything about computers

[scarlet quail]

yeah that's not how that works a shortcut is not the game exe

do you have the game on steam?

[prisma bay]

Yes

[hard cave]

It's been a million years since I initially modded on my macbook but I recall my issue being that I was using a steam version of the game vs a local one?

[scarlet quail]

right click the game in steam, hover over manage, hit browse local files

[prisma bay]

Mk

[scarlet quail]

Then copy the filepath from where it opens and put that in the installer

[modern python]

assertions like this are kind of mean, please refrain :(

[scarlet quail]

... I don't know how you do that on Macs though

[scarlet quail]

...Can you clarify? They were typing in desktop and then immediately asked what it was

[barren roost]

No idea then, might be an issue with the mod itself;( you should add the log so someone can check it out

[modern python]

sure you may be confused but its just not necessary to say.

[scarlet quail]

....honestly, fair. I apologize, Key.

[quartz hawk]

maybe its the mod itself. because its the only one that doesnt wanna work.

[prisma bay]

Oh you’re good

I’m just trying to figure things out rn

I totally get where you were coming from lol

[barren roost]

But well, if anyone can check out my error and log and see where I'm screwing up I'd appreciate it. Thank you all in advance

[prisma bay]

Okay, where do I find the installer? Is it in the contents folder thing?

[scarlet quail]

the thing in this image is the installer

you run it and put the filepath you got in the installer

the filepath is the thing you just got from opening the local files in steam

[prisma bay]

Oh okay

[flat crater]

i’ll check it out c: ty ❤️

[prisma bay]

@scarlet quail would you be able/comfortable to call and walk me through it 🙏

[scarlet quail]

Unfortunately not - outside of doing other stuff right now I don't do VCs for troubleshooting

[prisma bay]

That’s alright, appreciate your help in messages btw

[scarlet quail]

(Plus you're on Mac, and I'm Windows - I know the steps are similar but the mac specific stuff I don't know. I'd ask Logo about getting the filepath there)

[prisma bay]

Alright, thanks

Is Logo the one with the fancy letters

[scarlet quail]

ye

[prisma bay]

@stark horizon Might I request your assistance 🫶😁

[barren roost]

Do you know who could help w android stuff?

[scarlet quail]

not gonna lie to you Maia

!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.

[scarlet quail]

it's gonna get even worse here in 4 days when everyone updates their 1.6 mods

so short answer: No, not really.

[barren roost]

RIP LOL

[ancient escarp]

this channel is gonna be insane on the 19th

[barren roost]

It's okay I'll try to see if I can just not update them

[quartz swift]

I'm running modded Android

[barren roost]

HHHH REALLY? 😭 Are you having any error with dynamic game assets? I think something about that is what's hurting my game but I'm not sure exactly what

[barren roost]

here i posted the error and log

[stark horizon]

Hiya. What’s the issue?

[quartz swift]

First thing that strikes me is to use Spacecore 1.16.1 not 1.17.2

see mod versions here - https://android.stardew.rocks/

Spacecore is VERY PICKY

Also I am suspicious about anything using PyTK

[half spindle]

[scarlet quail]

in your case, Katz, you're having two Farm Type Managers

you need to remove one of the farm type managers for the game to load

they're running mac, logo

that's why they pinged you XD

So I have to take it out and everything that uses it?😭

[scarlet quail]

(otherwise I would have guided them myself If I could have )

Oh, that differs?

[barren roost]

AND THANK U

[prisma bay]

I think it’s 14. Something

[scarlet quail]

in getting the filepath, that is

makes more notes about weirdness of macs

[stark horizon]

Ok, where does the error occur? When you try to run the installer?

Sorry, I’m on mobile. I loathe discord mobile

[scarlet quail]

They get the installer up, but they aren't getting it to install because it's not auto-finding the Stardew executable

so they have to paste in the filepath

[stark horizon]

Thank you! That is helpful. One moment

[prisma bay]

Tysm for explaining 😭

[scarlet quail]

no problem. Like I said, Key, I can help normally, but the mac specific stuff escapes me

[prisma bay]

Yeah, I get that lmao

[stark horizon]

Quick question. Are you launching the installer from your downloads folder?

[prisma bay]

I don’t think so, it was just the Smapi installer folder on my background screen thing

[half spindle]

It worked tysm!!

[scarlet quail]

no probs, enjoy modded!

[stark horizon]

Let me try to rephrase. When you downloaded SMAPI, sis you take it out of the downloads folder?

*did you

[prisma bay]

Yeah

The installer right

[stark horizon]

Yeah. Where did you put it? In what location?

[prisma bay]

On my background

I’ve been informed that my background is called my desktop 👍

[stark horizon]

Can you please drag it back to and drop into the downloads folder please?

[prisma bay]

Yeah

Okay

[stark horizon]

Now double click on the install on mac os

[prisma bay]

Alrighty

I hit 2 for the text thing

[stark horizon]

No

[prisma bay]

Oh

My apologies

[stark horizon]

Sorry wait.

Ahh

Can you give me 5 min to get off my dumb phone?

[prisma bay]

Yeah ofc!

[stark horizon]

Ok, I'm back.

I confused the order of the questions so @prisma bay you chose 2 because that text is more readable, correct?

[prisma bay]

Yes

I’m very sorry if this is an inconvenience, but my father is requesting I go downstairs and watch a movie with my family

I apologize for the inconvenience

[pallid summit]

stardew will still be here later go have fun with your family! i hope it's a good film

[stark horizon]

No worries. Ping me later, when you're ready!

[pallid summit]

you need to wait longer, and don't touch your computer while it's loading

you have three big expansions installed (SVE, Ridgeside, East Scarp), and having more than one balloons your load time tremendously

[stoic wren]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[clear acorn]

Hello

[pallid summit]

you should probably install one of Spritemaster or Fast Loads (but only one!). they will help with this specific problem (save load time)

[stoic wren]

Okay! I'll try Fast Loads

[pallid summit]

even with one of those installed you are looking at maybe two minutes to load in, so be patient

[stoic wren]

Okay, thanks! I thought I had installed something wrong

[clear acorn]

Hello

[pallid summit]

good luck! if Fast Loads doesn't work you can try Spritemaster. which one works better seems to vary from computer to computer

[clear acorn]

I wanted to ask like

I saw videos on yt that you could play multiplayer SY on mobile using swampi

[modern python]

terraria??

[clear acorn]

.

I MEAN STARDEW VALLEY

😭

My bad

And swampi isnt working for me

[pallid summit]

i think i've heard of such a mod, but:

!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.

[pallid summit]

if SMAPI isn't working on your phone, you are probably out of luck. sorry about it!

[clear acorn]

O h . . .

So theres no other way to add mobs on mobile sadly?

[modern python]

no

[clear acorn]

Aw.

Thanks for the help tho ^^

[oak forum]

!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.

[scarlet quail]

You're gonna need to be more specific - give us the full error

[clear acorn]

I got one question, would 1.6 for mobile be able to play multiplayer?

Or do we not know yet?

[scarlet quail]

.....where'd you get the game?

Yeah, then outside of the fact I won't help you, I actually can't because that error means something that's supposed to be with the game isn't

so while it probably runs vanilla, it ain't running modded.

[civic sundial]

Hello. Pardon my interruption. I am looking for help with the process for adding the 1.5.6 to Steam as a non-steam game method. I get lost around step 4 on the wiki.

[scarlet quail]

Sure, I can help. What specifically makes you go "huh?"

[civic sundial]

Okay so I have SMAPI installed and I created the 1.5.6 folder

[scarlet quail]

ah, so you're doing the backup. Good to know

So far so good

from there, what confuses you?

[civic sundial]

I just don't know the correct order or what to select when I am in that browse section

It seems SMAPI is only loading the actual game instead of that 1.5.6 folder

[scarlet quail]

Okay. When you made the backup, you copied your stardew folder with SMAPI inside it already, correct?

[civic sundial]

No...

[scarlet quail]

Okay, so you just copied Stardew itself over, and the 1.5.6 folder doesn't have SMAPI in it at all, then?

That's not actually bad, we can work with that

[civic sundial]

Instructions weren't exactly clear on that part tbh

[scarlet quail]

I just need to know where we're starting here

[civic sundial]

Okay so I made the copy using the instructions that were given here about beaing worried with what if your modded save is broken.

[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)

[civic sundial]

Yeah that

[scarlet quail]

okay. so you copied it over. Did you already have SMAPI installed previously before you did that

yes or no

[civic sundial]

I was following that

No

[scarlet quail]

Okay. Do you have the SMAPI installer?

[civic sundial]

Yes it is open and I have the green text lines

[scarlet quail]

Okay, but given you copied stuff, I have to ask

What are the green lines

[civic sundial]

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

[scarlet quail]

I was afraid of that

you installed SMAPI to the original stardew location

[civic sundial]

oh

[scarlet quail]

which is great and all but that's being updated

[civic sundial]

Okay what now

Uninstall?

[scarlet quail]

run the installer again. This time, pick 2, and then input the filepath you have Stardew Valley in as the backup

(2 being the custom game path)

[civic sundial]

okay

okay it says type the file path

[scarlet quail]

Correct

[civic sundial]

do I just copy and paste where the 1.5.6 is?

[scarlet quail]

Yes.

[civic sundial]

okay

it is on m desktop

idk how to do that

sorry im trying

i dragged it over

does that work?

[scarlet quail]

... to verify something - do you know what a filepath is?

[civic sundial]

no

[scarlet quail]

Yeah I was afraid of that

[civic sundial]

I'm sorry I'm new to this

[scarlet quail]

So we'll start simpler

[civic sundial]

I mean. I dragged it over and now is has the C: command with the desktop line

[scarlet quail]

The problem is you didn't need to drag it over anywhere

[civic sundial]

The blacked out part is my irl name

[scarlet quail]

Right, that's normal. is the folder literally titled "1.5.6 - Stardew Valley.exe"?

[civic sundial]

yes

[scarlet quail]

that's.... a choice, but hit enter.

[civic sundial]

WDYM thats a choice?

Didn't the directions say to do that?

[scarlet quail]

Normally when a file or folder ends with .exe the computer tries to run it as an executable

[civic sundial]

oh

[scarlet quail]

It does not

[civic sundial]

okay

[scarlet quail]

The folder says to make a shortcut to the exe. But we'll avoid that right now because we want to get it set up first

[barren roost]

I just wanna thank y'all for the help and specially SaschaSegan cause I finally fixed the error ❤

Hoping that it runs well now LOL

Good luck < 3

[scarlet quail]

Did you get green lines from hitting enter after that filepath, shadow?

[civic sundial]

I haven't hit enter yet but I will now

nope

[scarlet quail]

what did it tell you?

[civic sundial]

this cirectory doesnt contain a stardew valley executable

directory*

[scarlet quail]

Okay. So to explain that error - it's telling you what you typed in is a path to a folder and that folder doesn't contain the exe that makes the game run

[civic sundial]

Oh

[scarlet quail]

can you retype the filepath, but without the ""s around it?

that or copy and paste the filepath from when you have the folder open

[civic sundial]

okay let me see

that didn't work

sorry I'm trying

I guess thew copy I made doesn't contain the right inormation

[scarlet quail]

no worries, it's fine. My assumption at this point is that you're entering in the wrong filepath at present

still, we can do this another way

[civic sundial]

okay

[scarlet quail]

since you accidentally installed SDV to your steam SDV, we can actually sort of bypass this part

right click stardew in steam, hover over manage, then hit browse local files

[civic sundial]

I can just uninstall it and reinstall it though right?

[scarlet quail]

then I need you to go up a folder

or, in your parlance, I need you to click on the folder "common" in your filepath

when that local files thing opens

[civic sundial]

okay

Oh is that stardew what I was supposed to copy?

The whole of it not just the one part?

[scarlet quail]

yeeep

[civic sundial]

That was not clear

[scarlet quail]

copy that folder and then just paste it in the same folder

[civic sundial]

I mean I guess for someone who does mods normally it would be tho

[scarlet quail]

it'll create a folder that'll be called "Stardew Valley - Copy" if you did it right

[civic sundial]

so copy and then just paste?

[scarlet quail]

yep

[civic sundial]

okay it did the thing

[scarlet quail]

it's easier this way and will make your backup look far less like a pirated copy too XD

okay, rename "Stardew Valley - Copy" to "Stardew Valley 1.5.6"

when you've done that, we can move on to making it a non-steam game

[civic sundial]

okay

renaming complete

[scarlet quail]

(since it already has SMAPI in-built thanks to installing it to the original directory!)

[civic sundial]

OHHHHH

[scarlet quail]

Alrighty

[civic sundial]

I see now

[scarlet quail]

from here, in your steam client, hit games, and then "add a non-steam game to your library"

[civic sundial]

do I close the smapi installer? or leave it open

[scarlet quail]

close, we no longer should need it

[civic sundial]

oki

[scarlet quail]

anyway. Hit the non-steam game thing, then hit "browse"

[civic sundial]

okay so now I browse for that new folder?

[scarlet quail]

You then want to browse to that new folder and then, when inside that folder, click "StardewModdingAPI" and then hit "open"

[civic sundial]

then add selected programs?

[scarlet quail]

Yep!

Once you do, you can rename it to "Stardew Valley 1.5.6 Modded" or something in steam itself

And just to make sure this was all done right

[civic sundial]

okay new problem

[scarlet quail]

what's up

[civic sundial]

it didnt show up in my lft bar with all my games

left*

[scarlet quail]

Right, it'd be StardewModdingAPI

not Stardew Valley

[civic sundial]

I know

Nothing changed

[scarlet quail]

that... isn't possible if you added selected programs

I'd assume you have filters on your steam

[civic sundial]

I don't think I do?

I could restart steam and see if that works

[scarlet quail]

Sure?

I have never, in my life, seen someone hit "add selected programs" and it not show the selected program

[civic sundial]

:C

sadge

[scarlet quail]

I guess in the top of your steam client there should be a search bar under "games" and "home"

[civic sundial]

okay

[scarlet quail]

type "Star" in it

tell me if it shows

[civic sundial]

nope

just stardew and dont starve

[scarlet quail]

....can you give a screenshot of your steam client?

This... literally seems impossible

[civic sundial]

okay

what part specifically

[naive drum]

Just to confirm: you clicked this

And then this

[civic sundial]

yes

[scarlet quail]

the whole thing, shadow

[civic sundial]

okay

idk what happened

but restarting steam fixed it i think

because i did it again and it is there now

[scarlet quail]

Well, as long as it works?

[civic sundial]

so do I just click it and open it?

[naive drum]

yeh

[scarlet quail]

correct

[civic sundial]

is that it?

[scarlet quail]

that's it!

[civic sundial]

oh goodness

Thank you so so so much

[scarlet quail]

No probs. Enjoy your backup modded, which by the by, any mods need to go in the mods folder in your 1.5.6 folder

[civic sundial]

This has been one heck of a headache but thank you for your patience

I don't use mods tbh. I am just autistic af and change terrifies me and I don't want 1.6 to make me stop playing altogether. I want the ability to ease myself into it

[oak stone]

So me and my gf have been playing the game for a few days now, and yesterday all of the sudden, the game started crashing for her (shes the host). At first we thought it was just when she entered or left buildings but it also seems to crash even if she doesn't leave the house. We did install a few new mods the day it started crashing but we've removed all of them and it stills appears to be doing it?

[pallid summit]

Save Anywhere is likely to be the issue here

[scarlet quail]

I will reiterate something on Save Anywhere that atra wisely said - SDV does NOT take it well if you try and save midday

Save Anywhere tries, it really does

But it reaaaaallllly generally just dies quick

[oak stone]

We're aware Save Anywhere probably causes some issues on its own, but we were mainly using it as a fix because of the crashes

So that we have a chance to actually save

[scarlet quail]

That is... not the best idea, unfortunately. That's essentially saying "the house is on fire, let's put water on this one room"

it'll make the room not on fire, but it won't stop the fire spreading back in and if enough of the rest of the house gets burnt, it'll collapse on the not-on-fire area

Use a regular save, have your GF play until it crashes, then without reopening the game send her log (since she's the host).

[oak stone]

Alright, should she open the save in mp or just play singleplayer?

[scarlet quail]

either or

[feral timber]

hello i cant seem to be able to put any bait in the crabpots

[wet rune]

is there a way to search for mods better? I'm looking for the Alternative TExtures mod and there's a million ones listed that just use it

[ancient escarp]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9246

[pallid summit]

if this happens to you again, you can go to any of those pages, then look in the Requirements to find a link to the framework

[wet rune]

oooh clever

I also realize the SMAPI output lists the links

just to check, this one is ok to download.

[modern python]

yes

[wet rune]

ok just checking 🙂 Tsym

and I jus treplace the old mod file.

[modern python]

delete then replace

[wet rune]

ok

I should go through them all sometime cause some I dont remember what they do

I dont remember why I needed Fancy Crystalarium. Maybe for another mod

[ancient escarp]

bringing this back just to see if anyone has any suggestions

[feral timber]

hello?

im having trouble with the crab pots

i cant place bait in them when they are in the ocean

clicking left or right just puts them in and out of my inventory no matter if i have bait in my hands

is this normal?

[wet rune]

UI Infosuite... from github. But I usually download from Nexus... so not sure do I do it the same?

[modern python]

the ui info suite on nexus is outdated, stick to github for that one

[wet rune]

ok

[tired quartz]

It's on github because the one on nexus doesnt work anymore afaik

im not saying this to offend or anything, theres just long pauses, i feel ignored :/

If you have the no bait profession that is how it appears

[feral timber]

oooooooh yes

i remember now

i clicked on no bait lol

i thought i clicked on no trash hahahahaha🤣🤣🤣🤣

so ill have trash

bummer

[tired quartz]

I see, I have always downloaded it from github since the coming of Ui Info Suite 2 because the Nexus one would not work

[tired quartz]

So it was nothing that had to do with a mod but vanilla

[wet rune]

Well it still took a bit but less than before. TYSM

[feral timber]

i remember i clicked on no bait because trash is still useful and no bait wont block the crab pots if i put them in trash waters lol

[oak forum]

You're playing with SVE though?

What portraits didn't show up?

[keen grove]

All of them
Alex, Elliott, Harvey, Sam, Sebastian and Shane

[compact verge]

You have Seasonal Cute Characters. They presumably overwrite this.

Try putting a z before your Marriable Men Portrait folder name.

[oak forum]

You also have vanilla facelift which looks like it also might be a portrait mod as well?

[keen grove]

Okay let me try again after removing these two mods

[oak forum]

You could check if your generic mod config menu and see if you can turn it off for them as well? I know Diverse Stardew does and Seasonal I think let's you pick and chose what you use in that menu

It didn’t work

(Context: You mentioned Alex's isn't applying. I see no portrait edits for Alex, so I need to figure out which one is your mod to see what it's doing)

ah. I see what you said above

So your conversion was not... done correctly, is the best way to put it

It has a manifest, yes.

But it apparently doesn't have a content.json to actually apply the changes.

or it does but it's doing nothing per the log

Please give the log from when you're loaded into the game

To check portrait edits, they need to apply by loading into the game.

[cunning jackal]

Hello! I am hoping someone can help me with a question involving duplicating my game file so my game doesn't break with the 1.6 update. I followed the instructions to add Stardew 1.5.6 to steam as a non-steam game, but when I press "Play" on the new version it still ends up running the old version of the game. Is this working correctly? SMAPI says it's running the 1.5.6 version, but Steam clearly shows "Stardew Valley" running and not "Stardew Mods 1.5.6" on the left hand side of the screen. I have included a picture for clarity. https://ibb.co/yyVkhmb

[compact verge]

Hi, where do you put your Stardew 1.5.6 folder?

[scarlet quail]

Steam will always show stardew valley running, since it'll recognize the game's exe running

that said, even when 1.6 comes out, it won't recognize which version you're running

in other words: That's normal

(Example: I'm on modding alpha (1.6) right now, but I can boot my 1.5.6 fine and it says I'm running SDV)

[cunning jackal]

I had it in the steam common folder and then I tried moving it to a folder on the desktop, but it didn't seem to change the way steam was running it

[scarlet quail]

again, that's normal

As long as the filepath at the start of the SMAPI log is your new folder, you're good

[cunning jackal]

ok thank you! I wasn't sure if it was normal or not lol

the filepath at the start of SMAPI was for the new folder

[compact verge]

Yar, all's fine, then.

[cunning jackal]

Awesome!! Thank you guys so much!! 😊

Oh!! One more quick question. Both version of the game still share saves correct?

[scarlet quail]

Yep

1.5.6, if you have a 1.6 save with data it can't read, will show some red in the log when you get to your saves screen.

[cunning jackal]

ok got it! that makes sense!!

Thank You!!

[ebon plinth]

heyyy i was wondering if my saves would corrupt if i delete my mods?

mainly bc of the 1.6 update and stuff dnnjdsnjds

like would it be a good idea to duplicate the game files so i can make sure that i can play my older saves even if all the mods i currently have won't be updated?

Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[stark horizon]

Your saves will almost without a doubt be affected if you delete all your mods and try to play them in 1.6. Some mods, once removed, will corrupt the save files due to what they edit and how they edit.

You do have options, though, to preserve the save file integrity until mods are updated and/or you determine you can safely remove mods that aren't updated.

!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.

[stark horizon]

Heya cheese! This is an error caused by Market Town. I would advise reporting it to the mod author.

[ebon plinth]

okay, thanks!

if i set up the game as a non-steam game will the achievements show up to the normal sdv steam page or the 1.5 version

i'm so sorry if that doesn't make sense i'm not sure how to put my question to words ddsnjds

i'm just wondering bc i'm going for perfection in my save

tho the in-game achievements probably work anyway

[stark horizon]

The in-game achievements will work, but because you will either be disconnecting it from Steam or setting it up as a non-Steam game, you won't get the corresponding Steam achievements until you resync the save file.

[ebon plinth]

ohhhhh okay okay

how about the save resync how does that work? can i just replace the save file in the actual sdv files orrrr do they work differently? i'm just asking all my questions now jdjndsd

[stark horizon]

That's understandable! When the time comes, all you would have to do is move your save files into the new location created when SDV 1.6 updates.

[ebon plinth]

alright, great! thank you so much <33

i really appreciate your help!

[stark horizon]

You're welcome!

[inland shoal]

Hi Logo! Thanks for the response. Would you reccommend me removing Market Town then?

[stark horizon]

It will continue to spam SMAPI until it's corrected, though it doesn't look like it's a game-breaking error. I would disable it for now, though.

[inland shoal]

alright! thank u <3

[sonic frigate]

do mods work in multiplayer? if so how do they work? do all players need the mod or just the leader? etc

[stark horizon]

!mpmods

[native dragon]

You can mod your multiplayer games, but to avoid any hiccups, all players' mod lists need to match. If players have too many mismatched mods, you will experience bugs in your game - even if the mods were working fine earlier, there is no guarantee that they will stay that way, and strange things may start occurring. There are a few exceptions to this - cosmetic mods usually work fine with no glitches, and some C# mods work as well. Mods often include information on whether or not they work in multiplayer in their descriptions. However, in general, your mod lists should match exactly.

See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Do_mods_work_in_multiplayer.3F for more details on how mods work in multiplayer!

I've been going at this a long time so I just defaulted 😓

[stark horizon]

Right click on the "install on macOS.command" file and then select "Open"

[tacit hull]

Yep

[stark horizon]

(from the one in the downloads folder)

[tacit hull]

Ahhhm it's running now

[stark horizon]

You should get a security pop up window, but select open anyway

Awesome

[primal parcel]

Does anyone know what thiseans

This means*

[stark horizon]

You'll have to do these steps every time you need to update SMAPI - Apple will block it every time

[tacit hull]

What does "file path to the game directory" mean

[neat plaza]

!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.

[stark horizon]

File path is basically - what folders do you have to open to get to the executable file?

On a mac it should be Users/yourusername/Library/Application Support/Steamapps/steam/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOS

[stark horizon]

What this means is that for some of your crop items, Producer Framework doesn't have rules for them. It's not a game-breaking issue

[primal parcel]

How would I fix that? Since I'm on multiplayer

Please!

[stark horizon]

First, you want to make sure that every single person in your co-op has the exact same mods.

But also! It doesn't necessarily need to be fixed! Producer Framework Mod is just saying that for these crops, no products exist, and that could be intentional.

[primal parcel]

Would it be possible that some mods took over the outputs, leading to different items but for a different mod?

[stark horizon]

That would show a different message - you would likely get "such and such already exists, ignoring rule for this other mod"

[tacit hull]

I pasted /Users/[myname]/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOS and it told me that directory doesn't seem to contain a valid game install

[stark horizon]

Can you send a SS of your game folder?

[primal parcel]

Hmm that's interesting because the other player has unchanged items, somehow I am ending up with different items for different mods

[stark horizon]

Then you likely have a mod mismatch. I advise that both of you run a log at https://smapi.io/log and compare mod lists.

[primal parcel]

Will do, thank you!

[tacit hull]

What is ss?

[stark horizon]

Sorry! Screenshot

Basically, Skyward, we need to figure out where your game folder actually is and direct SMAPI to it

[tacit hull]

I took as wide a shot as I could of my folder

[stark horizon]

So far so good. Can you open the MacOS folder and show me what's in there?

OH WAIT

[tacit hull]

?

[stark horizon]

Your Mods folder should be inside the MacOS folder

[tacit hull]

AAAAAHHHHH

It didn't automatically generate and one of the videos I watched told me it'd be fine if I made it myself, which is what I did

[stark horizon]

And that may have made SMAPI confused

[primal parcel]

Confirmed we have the same mods, is it possible for a different mod folder to take over even if deleted? Mine stuff got messed up after I downloaded PPJA Mega Pack.

[tacit hull]

So do I still direct it to macos or the mods folder inside?

[stark horizon]

to MacOS - because inside that folder is where the Stardew Valley Unix executable file lives

[tacit hull]

okay

[stark horizon]

That is possible, yeah, and could possibly indicate that not everything was deleted as it should have been.

[tacit hull]

Nope, still says the same thing

[stark horizon]

RAWR

Ok. Let me gather my thoughts

[tacit hull]

Sorry yeah, you're helping two people

[naive drum]

Isnt the PPJA mega pack most recent version a broken DGA one?

[primal parcel]

Idk but my stuff is all messed up now

[stark horizon]

Can you send a screenshot of what the inside of the MacOS folder looks like, please?

[primal parcel]

Redownloaded every mod and reinstalled Stardew as well, but somehow the items switched to different items

[stark horizon]

That's because the data exists in your save file. You could try reverting to a previous save.

[primal parcel]

Hmm okay let me try that

[stark horizon]

Are you the host?

[primal parcel]

No unfortunately

[stark horizon]

I honestly don't know too much about how to troubleshoot issues like these in multiplayer.

[tacit hull]

Do you mind if I dm you the screenshot? I'm not big on tech so I tend to be paranoid over not knowing what could be identifying especially in a big server full of computer people I don't know.

[stark horizon]

That's fine

[primal parcel]

Didn't work sadly

Will be doing a whole reset

[stark horizon]

We're going to try a different way. Can you open a new Terminal window?

[tacit hull]

Meaning?

[stark horizon]

Meaning, Terminal is an app on your Mac, and we need to open it 😄

[tacit hull]

Sorry I big dumdum

[sonic frigate]

to everyone: what's your #1 tip on modding or suggestion you'd give a new modder, or maybe something you wish you knew when you started

[stark horizon]

Read the mod descriptions!

But this question would be best asked in #modded-stardew - this channel is more for problem solving mod issues. 🙂

[sonic frigate]

ok will do ty

[tacit hull]

Okay new terminal opened

[stark horizon]

Now, input sudo /Users/yourusername/Downloads/SMAPI\ 3.18.6\ installer/install\ on\ macOS.command (and put your actual user name instead of yourusername

[tacit hull]

Uh

I opened terminal from that file we were working on, do I need to open it seperately for this?

[stark horizon]

We need a new window, yeah.

You should be able to open one from the "Shell' menu

in the menu bar

[tacit hull]

?????

What's a shell menu???

I opened it from launchpad does that work?

[stark horizon]

Yep

[gaunt gust]

hang on, why are we using sudo for smapi?

[stark horizon]

We're trying to trick their OS

[tacit hull]

I will say this may be part of the problem

[gaunt gust]

what were you trying to do here?

[stark horizon]

Install SMAPI on MacOS

[tacit hull]

I downloaded mods a while ago and was able to play them just fine. However I haven't played with them for a while so I just decided to wipe the mods I had and download new ones. I wiped the mods folder clean but didn't do anything to the macos one.

[gaunt gust]

okay

[tacit hull]

Idk if this could be a problem

[gaunt gust]

if you just wiped the mods folder clean you should still have SMAPI

let's see

[stark horizon]

Atra - if you're comfortable taking over, it's very late for me. I just don't want to leave you in the lurch

[gaunt gust]

I mean, I have to go to work sooner rather than later

so this probably should not take more than the time it takes for me to finish this coffee

[tacit hull]

But the black box that smapi makes show up is not showing up and none of the mods are working

[gaunt gust]

okay

[stark horizon]

Okay, then I'm going to hop off and head to bed. Skyward, if you aren't able to sort this out, send me a msg, and I'll respond after I've had some sleep. 🙂

[gaunt gust]

can you tell me what ls "/Users/[yourusername]/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOs/stardew*" shows you

[stark horizon]

(thanks atra, for the assist, and I hope you have a good day at work!)

[gaunt gust]

Hopefully! I hate writing reports XD

[tacit hull]

Ima send you the inside of my macos folder in dms just like I did for logo

[gaunt gust]

okay, and what happened when you tried to install SMAPI?

[gaunt gust]

I'm trying to figure out what this is about

since these aren't instructions, this is a script

[tacit hull]

I figured it out

That's not the problem anymore

The problem is I give it the file path and it tells me that directory doesn't seem to contain a valid game install

[gaunt gust]

okay

see the MacOS file?

drop the installer (including the folder it came in) into that folder

do NOT allow it to overwrite anything, if that prompt comes up it's wrong

[tacit hull]

?

[gaunt gust]

Okay

1. I don't see SMAPI installed

[tacit hull]

I had it installed but I removed it cause I thought I was supposed to!

[gaunt gust]

2. SMAPI's installer has an alternative method to detect the game folder - if the installer is IN the folder itself, it'll just go there

This is a tad bit more foolproof

[tacit hull]

I'm not sure if that's what you meant but I put the unzipped smapi folder into macos and it changed nothing

[naive drum]

You have to run the Install on MacOS that's in the installer folder

[gaunt gust]

can you check if the steam properties -> Betas -> Beta Partipation is what?

[tacit hull]

It is that

[gaunt gust]

it should not be that

try going back to normal

[tacit hull]

Oh

[gaunt gust]

this is correct

[tacit hull]

Sorry, one of my earlier attempts told me to change it to that

[gaunt gust]

they were wrong

[tacit hull]

WAIT

IT WORKED

HOLY COW LET'S SEE IF THIS WORKS IN GAME

OH MY GOD IT WORKED

@gaunt gust, @stark horizon, GOD BLESS THE BOTH OF YOU YOU BRILLIANT PEOPLE I HOPE YOU HAVE THE GREATEST DAY AY WORK AND THE GREATEST NIGHT'S SLEEP

Now instead of playing my game I'm gonna go eat the debilitating level of sugar I have in the fridge cause I have been working on this for so so many hours and mommy needs her carbs

🫡

[ebon plinth]

hiii how do i know i did the game files copying thing right?

should i also copy the game files from appdata location or not?

[naive drum]

You dont need to copy the appdata ones

[ebon plinth]

i probably did i just want to make sure nothing gets fucked up ssjnjs

[ebon plinth]

okay, thanks!

i'm also kinda confused with my game folders sdnndsn

like

should they look like this

what is all that stuff😭 💀

probably nothing to worry about but i want to make sure since i have no idea what (unmodded) sdv game files look like

[torn bear]

anyone can help me install the recolor addon?

[dire fractal]

could you send a link to it?

[remote hazel]

is there anyone having trouble with downloading sdv expanded from nexus?

smh i cant even download it

[prisma bay]

I fell asleep during the movie 💀

But I’m ready now if you’re awake

If not that’s fine

[tawdry kindle]

probably a dumb question, but how will 1.6 effect mods? will we have to wait for updates on every single one? or will they still work?

[modern python]

depends heavily on the mod

some will still work fine without updating (mainly content packs) many will not

[lament vortex]

you wont have to wait for updates for every single one, updates will be mostly for frameworks and c# mods

[tawdry kindle]

uhhh

explain like im 5 lmao

i dont know the difference

[lament vortex]

frameworks are mods that make other mods work. like content patcher for example

[tawdry kindle]

ohhhh ok

so mostly cosmetics for preexisting stuff wil be fine

[lament vortex]

yep. some content packs (think mods that use content patcher, for example) will probably be updated to work with whatever new things 1.6 brings but most will be fine even if its not updated

[scarlet quail]

!modupdates

[native dragon]

Once 1.6 releases, most mods will be updated as soon as the mod authors are available and capable of making updates. We do not know of a specific timeline for any update to any mod, expansion or otherwise, but rest assured mod authors have been given access to a build of 1.6 without content changes with which to make updates to help mod updates be ready for release day. If a mod you use is not ready for release day, please do not harass the mod author to update - mod authors are people who may have other time commitments and cannot immediately update their mods.

If you have questions as to whether a particular mod will be ready for release day, it is best to ask the mod author themselves. Please keep in mind a lack of response does not necessarily mean the mod is being abandoned - the mod author may not have time to respond or is hard at work behind the scenes. Most major mods will likely have an update prepared for 1.6 on or near release.

[tawdry kindle]

tyty

[tawdry kindle]

gotcha! Thanks

[dull zenith]

where do i get the working UI info suite?

[scarlet quail]

!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.

[dull zenith]

thank you!

[molten flax]

hey i jw if anyone can help me, im updating all my mods manually, and theres one i deleted and downloaded the newst version (5.0.0) re launched my game and it keeps saying i still need to update it

[oak forum]

Check the manifest. IT could have the wrong version written in it

[molten flax]

it doesnt i must be doing something wrong but idk what

oh the MFM one says 4.0

theres two folders, CP and MFM, the mfm one still says 4.0.0

[molten flax]

im not sure what mfm means, but should i change it?

[oak forum]

Is that the manifest.json in that folder?

[dusty spruce]

MFM = Mail Framework Mod

[molten flax]

yes

[oak forum]

So if your 100% you did the newest then thats the issue

You can either

A. Ignore it
Or
B. Update the manifest.json to match the version its looking for

[molten flax]

ok. thank you so much. im stil tryna learn about this so i appreciate the help

[oak forum]

Yea no problem! It's just a portion that gets missed sometimes ^_^

I had two or three I had to do this for

[torn bear]

Anyone can help me install the recolor addon

I tried since yesterday and couldn’t

Manage

[lament vortex]

which one

[torn bear]

the natural recolor

This

[lament vortex]

show me how you have it installed

if you have the files in their own folder, move them out of the folder so they're together with the game's files

[torn bear]

wdym?

[torn bear]

mind maybe going to dms?

[lean star]

did you unpack the .zip?

[lament vortex]

no, i dont do troubleshooting in dms

[torn bear]

so what do i do?

[torn bear]

yes

[lean star]

is the "launcher" in the same folder as the stardew valley.EXE?

[torn bear]

ill send a pic of the SDV folder

[lament vortex]

when you uzipped the reshade files, did you move the whole folder? and if so, where did you move it to?

the reshade as in the natural color reshade

[lean star]

I can see you've done it wrong, there should be a folder called reshade-shaders in that list

(me and typos...)

[torn bear]

i removed it

it was placed in here

the whole thing

[lean star]

ok, so we can start from there

you're in the right folder, good, now unpack the .zip into that folder

you should then have another folder called reshade-shaders and a file called Natural Color - Launcher.bat

[median eagle]

can someone tell me how to put flooring in this small section? It's been throwing me off

[neat plaza]

does putting flooring there not work?

[median eagle]

nope

[lament vortex]

you cant i dont think. use dynamic flooring (aedenthorn mod)

[median eagle]

i tried from the catalogue and AT

o.o

one sec

[torn bear]

which one do i put in

[lean star]

everything

[torn bear]

the whole thing?

[lean star]

yes

[torn bear]

i did that and it didnt work

[lean star]

why did you put it in a folder?

[torn bear]

i put it into the sdv one

before mods

[lean star]

no, you unpacked it into a new folder, you're supposed to put the batch and the shader folder into the sdv root

like so

[torn bear]

ah

anbf the installeR?

[lean star]

same

[torn bear]

I remjove it and put it here>?

[lean star]

not sure where you want to remove it from but yes, put it there

[torn bear]

from the shady recolor folder

[lean star]

anything you have to do to answer this question with "yes"

[torn bear]

didnt work

wait

what is the steam launch option?

[lean star]

the steam launch option is for SMAPI, this is a reshade, not an SMAPI mod

[torn bear]

ik but ifd there is no this it wont work

[lean star]

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

[median eagle]

i installed dynamic flooring but still cant change this section:

[lean star]

or whatever your path is

[median eagle]

wait nvm

[torn bear]

It didn’t work

the smapj launched but the colors didn’t

maybe I gotta do the installer now?

after I put the path

[lean star]

did you run the launcher and install the reshade?

[torn bear]

Nope

I did but it used to say

I didn’t check now

[torn bear]

This

[lean star]

but do you still get that?

[torn bear]

I didn’t check now

As I had to go out from home

When I go back I’ll see

but now that I put the path will it say it or no?

[lean star]

do that

you should not require the path command, you don't start the launcher.bat through steam

[torn bear]

I know but idk why it kept saying that

When I launched the installer

But the installer should be in the SDV root right? Same with the reshade shaders folder

[lean star]

yes

[median eagle]

now i have this strip of unevenness but none of the flooring in the catalogue matches it

[lean star]

strip of unevenness?

[median eagle]

Its beown

And I can't change it to the right flooring

[lean star]

I assume you "placed" the flooring in the room?

if you did, you forgot the last row of flooring (there's another row on the "back" layer of the walls, which is the wooden boards you see here)

[broken ivy]

I just need some help I'm trying to use star drop but for some reason I already have the installer whatever it's called downloaded but I cannot find it in my files I don't know where I'm supposed to look

[median eagle]

thats the ones i cant get to match

[lean star]

that much I get but how did you apply the flooring to the room? vanilla or by placing it using dynamic flooring?
