And to be clear - you "crash" or does the game go "not responding"

Hey y'all, hoping someone can help me.

Several years ago (like pre-lockdown several years) I played Stardew with mods on this computer (Windows 10, Intel G41 Express Chipset graphics card, can't afford a better one right now.) A friend of mine and I are looking to get back into it with the new update. So I redownloaded from Steam (which I have to run in Administrator mode to make do anything), got SMAPI 3.18.6 and some mods, downloaded and installed the XNA Framework Redistributable, made sure that the game and SMAPI were exceptions in my antivirus and firewall, attempted to update my graphics driver (but there was no update). I'm getting to where I'm circling back on everything when I google any other solutions.

I'm getting the "The game failed to launch: Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics.NoSuitableGraphicsDeviceException: Failed to create graphics device!" error with some others nested.

And on my log, which I'll link, it's telling me I don't have Error Handler, but I do, it's right there in the Mods folder.

Am I just destined to have to play with no mods?

!legacy is the only SDV you can play

native dragonBOT
#

There are some instances where you will need to use the compatibility version of the game. Please be aware that SMAPI/game mods are not compatible with this version.

On Steam: In your library, right-click Stardew Valley and select Properties... > Betas > then "compatibility" under the dropdown.
On GOG: From the game's page, click the settings icon > Manage installation > Configure... > then "compatibility" under the Beta channels dropdown.

scarlet quail

And note that last part.

!legacymodding (also)

native dragonBOT

Updating the game, do you need to update the mods and smapi too? Do they stop working? Computer game

oak forum
lean star
#

as for the second question, they stop working if they require an update but don't get one

wild temple
#

I have smapi and all my mods throught hat

#

how hard will it be to update them?

#

or would it be better to install all of them again when the mod devs release them

worthy moth
#

The way I see it is you have to options:
Do it live - update smapi and launch the game, it'll tell you what mods require updating, so then update them. You'll probably have multiple updates, for multiple mods, for a period of time, and keeping them updated will be time consuming.
Wait awhile - Give mods a chance to update and update again, then you can do the same thing but hopefully not have to download/install as often. In the meantime, check out vanilla.
Some mods may not get updates, and they may be broken. If that's the case then your only option will be to remove them.

That was very helpful

I have a problem strictly connected with SMAPI. First of all, I'm playing on Steam, my vanilla Stardew is working fine - SMAPI is crashing when I'm trying to open it. It's stuck on sayin "Waiting for game to launch" and then it's closing on it's own.
I haven't downloaded any new mods since last succesful game. Checked the logs - it's being said I should have ErrorHandler, but I already have it with full content. Tried reinstalling, same effect. I tried swaping Mods folder from my friend whom I'm playin with and her game works fine - still same issue for me.
Any ideas what could be the problem?

So if I have a chest next to a keg with say 4 regular quality coffee beans, 3 silver, and 3 gold, automate doesn't combine them. Is this like a setting I can change?

You'd need a separate mod to deal with merging quality levels, but even then that mod doesn't change anything about Automate so it's still manual

native dragonBOT
#

Do you want to play the vanilla game after having installed SMAPI? Keep in mind that you cannot play vanilla on a previously modded save. Please use separate saves for playing vanilla vs modded Stardew! That said, there are a few ways this can be achieved:

  1. If playing the game through Steam or GOG on a Windows device, clear your launch options, then select play from your game client. See the !launchoptions command for more info.

  2. Go into your game folder and launch StardewValley.exe. See the !findmodsfolder command for more info.

  3. Change the name of your Mods folder to anything other than Mods. Then launch the game as you normally would, this will make SMAPI launch but without any mods being loaded by it.

  4. Set up SMAPI as a custom game in Steam. See the !modgroups command for more info.

that's what you have to put into the checkup

#

Ok... I can't seem to find them anywhere. I have Steam and Stardew on my D drive, my C drive has no room.
I really can't find them, no matter which file path I use.

#

I have looked and looked.

scarlet quail
#

your save files are on your c drive, almost assuredly

#

And if you're doing searches, you're trying to find the save files wrong.

#

Follow the guide, please.

wary escarp
#

OK, I didn't know the Win-R trick

#

Let me try now!

#

Holy shit, that's it, TY so much.

#

I tried everything I knew, but that's why I came here. Some stuff I don't know/have forgotten.

scarlet quail
#

your save files are in appdata, which means they aren't going to be found by a search

#

your only options are the Win R "trick" as you stated, or %appdata% in the search bar

#

otherwise you aren't going to navigate or see that folder normally.

wary escarp
#

ah, I tried looking for appdata, %appdata%, didn't work.
Again, many thanks.

lean star
#

you should have found it searching for %appdata%

wary escarp
#

I was searching through the file window, rather than the find bar (I'm on Win10)

#

I just tried it on find bar, and it worked too.

lean star
#

hollow sluice
#

If i install smapi 4.0.0 for the steam 1.6 version, will it influence the 1.5.6 version i have outside of steam?

#

I get confused of where and how smapi launch

lean star
#

you install smapi to a specific path, so it shouldn't

hollow sluice
#

Thanks, i will check that while installing

#

Its the only step someone did for me, the other mods i did myself😄

#

On the installation guide it says to run the game once without smapi, do i need to do it before i install 4.0.0? or the firts time i run the game before is enough?

lean star
#

once after the installation of stardew

hollow sluice

i installed 1.5.6, so that counts, yes?

!backup

native dragonBOT
#

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)

Your save files will be right where you left them

#

The game is going to update so the files in the game folder will be different

#

The game, when launched, reads the save files from the normal saves location

#

You do have to keep track of which saves are 1.6 and which aren't

#

as the 1.6 saves won't load in 1.5.6

Alright that I can do. So all I need to keep playing in a 1.5.6 file is never play it in 1.6?

Do you want to play the vanilla game after having installed SMAPI? Keep in mind that you cannot play vanilla on a previously modded save. Please use separate saves for playing vanilla vs modded Stardew! That said, there are a few ways this can be achieved:

  1. If playing the game through Steam or GOG on a Windows device, clear your launch options, then select play from your game client. See the !launchoptions command for more info.

  2. Go into your game folder and launch StardewValley.exe. See the !findmodsfolder command for more info.

  3. Change the name of your Mods folder to anything other than Mods. Then launch the game as you normally would, this will make SMAPI launch but without any mods being loaded by it.

  4. Set up SMAPI as a custom game in Steam. See the !modgroups command for more info.

how do i prevent the game from updating? basically, is there a way to launch smapi without steam?

modern python
#

well

#

you have two options, either back up your copy of the game to another location by copying the folder to your desktop (or something), or you can do this: #bulletin-board message

ancient escarp

thank you

#

is this the right one?

#

yep

thank you

though whenever you want to switch between the two, i believe youll need to reinstall your mods + smapi each time

SMAPI is telling me that Customize Wedding Attire can be updated

But the new file says it's for 1.6 Alpha only

Yea you dont need to update it

is there somewhere to know which mods are all updated/which will be in time?

Yeah CA let people join 1.6 alpha to update their mods

So you should be able to use most of the mods

will colour changing mods like earthy recolour be updated or should i just start the new version on 1.6? earthy recolour isnt on the smapi.io site mods list

hi!! i’m very new to using mods so i don’t know much about them, and i want to remove a mod i think hasn’t been updated for 1.6. all the mod did was add some sprites, replace some sprites, and add a few more dialogue lines. does anyone have the steps of how i could remove the mod without risking corruption of the save file or anything like that?

stark horizon
native dragonBOT

Mods that only change aesthetics do not need special preparation, but when removing large expansions, like Stardew Valley Expanded, or mods that add new items, you should to do a few things:

  • Remove all modded fish from fishponds
  • Remove items from the mod from chests and inventory
  • Cut down trees/crops from the mod
  • Make sure no important items are in mod-added locations
  • Divorce any spouses from the mod (you can do this via console command)
    When you remove the mods, make sure to keep Json Assets installed, and check that you have Error Handler installed. If you are removing all mods, play a day and save before playing unmodded.

need some explanation here, game works fine but whenever i boot up it says i need to update around 12 mods. go thru every link and download their most recent versions and i boot up smapi to then see only 2 of the mods update requests have gone away.. any reason for this? (tldr: update all my mods but on startup still says they need to be updated)

is there a mod that gives extra info on things like exp, level progress, etc? can someone link me to one that works with 1.6? many thanks 🙏

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.

lean star
#

!manifesterror

native dragonBOT
#

If SMAPI tells you that a mod can be updated even if you have already downloaded the latest version, it may be an error with the manifest's version number. To check, open the mod's manifest.json and change the version number to match the mod page if they do not already match.

cedar vigil
#

hellooo ive been searching the deeps of reddit for like an hour and i still dont know how to solve this problem LOL but i wanted to play the game vanilla and even if i delete the mods and unstall smapi and try to load the save it keeps taking me back to the concerned ape screen, after seaching a bit more i think its because its trying to load stuff thats not theres, such as the characters, does anyone knows how to solve this so i can play the vanilla game again? SDVpetbearsad

dusty spruce
#

Remove all mods but the SMAPI-included ones, load the save file, go to bed to save again

#

Now you can try loading without SMAPI

#

If that doesn’t work, you’re stuck with mods on this save file

scarlet quail
#

That doesn't work shockah

dusty spruce
#

Of course it does

scarlet quail
#

They mentioned they had characters on it

dusty spruce
#

And of course that works for characters

cedar vigil
#

it doesnt work SDVpetcatsad

#

even if i remove the mods it wont let me load the save

dusty spruce
#

Error Handler gets rid of the characters

#

Just gotta let the game save again

scarlet quail
#

No it doesn't. We literally tell people all the time in here that once you have content adding mods on your save file, You can no longer load without SMAPI

cedar vigil
#

it only loads with the mods

scarlet quail
#

What you are saying will be true in 7-8 hours

pallid summit
scarlet quail
#

But only on 1.6

cedar vigil
#

otherwise it gets stuck in the loading screen

dusty spruce
#

What I’m saying has been always true

scarlet quail
#

But because they added characters they will always need error handler

dusty spruce
#

No they won’t?

scarlet quail
#

And therefore they will always need SMAPI

dusty spruce
#

Error Handler literally removes the characters

scarlet quail
#

Yes they will. And I don't wanna have to argue this when this is going to be irrelevant in eight hours.

cedar vigil
dusty spruce
#

but you gotta save the game again

scarlet quail
#

No it doesn't. It does not remove the data from your file

#

Even if you save

#

Anyway I'll leave this topic here

#

If you wanna keep arguing it go ahead

cedar vigil
#

sooo should i do anything or just give up LOL

pallid summit
#

looking back a bit, you said you uninstalled SMAPI and removed all your mods?

cedar vigil
radiant turret
#

I have disabled all my mods ready for the patch, but do I need to disable smapi as well?

velvet imp
#

how do i turn smapi off. my pc is running linux if that helps

cedar vigil
#

and everytime i try to load a save without the mods it keeps taking me to the concerned ape screen

velvet imp
#

i turned it on last through the terminal

pallid summit
cedar vigil
#

i tried to disable the mods and open it to save but it didnt work SDVpetbearsad

cedar vigil
pallid summit
#

if shockah is right, then you'll be able to load the save in vanilla (we'll get to that after you load and save)

cedar vigil
#

OMG IT WORKED

#

its actually a lot more simple then i thought LMFAO

#

so i saved it and it doesnt have the mods, do i need to delete smapi still?

#

or can i just leave it there in case i wanna add mods later

#

i just wanted to do that to play my main game with the update

dusty spruce
#

i was trying to record a vid for Lyoko, just to prove i'm right

#

but... vanilla loaded my modded save with no issues

#

what the frick

pallid summit
#

before you delete smapi, try running the vanilla game as-is and make sure it loads

#

in your game folder, you should have a StardewValley-original.exe or similar

scarlet quail
#

That's why I didn't want to argue it

pallid summit
#

if you run that, that will start the vanilla game without going through SMAPI

scarlet quail
#

You loaded it on alpha Didn't you

dusty spruce
#

i had my 1.5.6 mods

#

which all loaded just fine

#

i'm on stable

scarlet quail
#

The save.

#

O k yeah that shouldn't have happened

cedar vigil
dusty spruce
#

unless RSV characters don't break saves

scarlet quail
#

Either way, I'd be more concerned but again We won't have to bother in a few hours

pallid summit
cedar vigil
#

if i want to play without mods i just have to use the stardew valley.exe? or do i have to do this everytime i wanna play without it

dusty spruce
#

anyway, seeing that worked for them, i'd say i was right, but you're correct in saying it won't matter in 4-8 hours

scarlet quail
#

So I wouldn't say that conclusively shockah

pallid summit
scarlet quail
#

But like I said. I really don't care to prove it one way or another

#

Also, because that would require getting up right now. And turning on the computer which I don't want to do yet today XD

dusty spruce
#

well, i'd hate to learn i was spewing bullshit for the past 2 years

#

so i had to try proving it

scarlet quail
#

And I'd also hate to learn that Everything i've taught in modded game support is wrong

#

Or at least everything i've learned

native zinc
#

is there a replacement mod for ''multiplayer time''? on smapi.io it says its not up to date for 1.6

scarlet quail
#

No

#

!modupdates

native dragonBOT
#

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.

dusty blaze
#

This is more of a longer term question I suppose but will the SAMPI Logs flag any mods that may be incompatible with 1.6?

dusty spruce
#

in a way

scarlet quail
pallid summit
#

SMAPI 4.0 removes a bunch of stuff that has been deprecated for a long while, so any mods that still use those will break and you will get an error about them (those mods have been generating log warnings about that for some time now).

dusty spruce
#

if they fail to load, SMAPI will log them, yes

#

but a mod could potentially load in, just be broken

pallid summit
#

Content Patcher i believe will also log when it has to rewrite an older content pack for the 1.6 changes

dusty blaze
#

Aye, I'm going to give Mods a couple of weeks to update and likely rebuild my Mod folder from scratch

Is it possible to have two installations of Stardew on Steam, one for modded and one for unmodded? Want to play 1.6 vanilla while keeping my prior installation with all mods intact (until things are all updated for 1.6)

pallid summit
#

!backup this may help?

native dragonBOT
#

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)

(tl;dr copy your whole game folder somewhere else, then launch it directly instead of through Steam)

Ok open steam library, and in the bottom left corner there’s an “add a game” button

In your game folder there are two exe’s, one is just Stardew Valley, and the other is the StardewModding. Click the regular Stardew valley exe and add it.

You might want to rename it so you know which is which, but you should have both games in the list now.

should i update smapi first before installing stardrop?

lament vortex
#

it doesnt matter

#

stardrop isnt a mod so it doesnt need to have am updated smapi

supple steeple
#

so QUESTION. for smapi's website has it's list of mods that are updated for 1.6. for example. lookup anything says to use the latest version

image.png
#

does ' latest version ' mean. the main file . or the optional file?

image.png
#

id assume the optional file since it has 1.6 and thats what ill need it for. but uhhhh going to smapi to install smapi 4.0 it says NOT to get it if you have the actual game

image.png
dusty spruce
#

The update is not yet out, so that line is still true

#

It won’t work UNTIL the game updates

#

And there will be another SMAPI update later anyway

#

Just wait until the game releases properly

cedar cipher
#

So on the official mod list, does green "use latest version" mean that it's 1.6 compatible or just compatible with the current version of the game since the update is not released yet?

Just found my mod on there marked green so I was wondering

supple steeple
#

so, i am okay to install smapi 4.0 + the optional files for 1.6 for mods ? and the game will run (hopefully) once 1.6 is released ?

lament vortex
#

dont update smapi for now, pathos will update it again after 1.6 drops

fallen crag
#

PFM just got updated today, should I update it for 1.6 or keep the older version for now for my 1.6 save?

if youre going to play 1.6 with mods you need the 1.6 compatible version of mods

scarlet quail

remove launch options

#

!launchoptions

native dragonBOT
scarlet quail
#

you probably set them to launch SMAPI

#

But without SMAPI, hitting play will make it try to find the SMAPI exe

#

unless you take out the launch options, anyway

#

How do I take that out...

scarlet quail
#

do the reverse

#

i.e. follow the guide as if you were putting in launch options

#

and just delete what's there instead

#

Ah, thank you!

#

I was so confused wheeze

sonic frigate
#

is this right if i want to play with my mods?

  1. update to 1.6
  2. download the new smapi as a fresh install
  3. play and see which mods break
  4. update broken mods later if they get updated
pallid summit
#

sounds good to me

dusty spruce
#

80% of non-content-packs mods will break without updates

sonic frigate
#

yah that's fine just wanted to see if my process is right

#

ok ty ichor

#

is that how it is with every major update? like does the new smapi get released "within minutes" of the major update like pathoschild said it would this time?

dusty spruce
#

The thing about SMAPI is, it’s super minimal and generally doesn’t break very often

#

AND this time we’ve had access to the alpha since the very beginning

sonic frigate
#

ahh

#

i'm assuming CA will probably keep doing it this way tho since he's pretty positive about mods

they made me do a virus scan

If it's from Nexus, it should be fine. Just a false positive

windows anti virus is crazy sometimes

yeahh from nexus mods

its this one

SDVpufferlurk yeah I just uploaded that recently, so it's not confirmed safe yet, but I assure you I'd be banned forever if it was anything bad

you can always submit files to those online virus scanners that check files if you want to be triple sure of files you download

i mean its good that windows warns you but

When you mod games, you will occasionally come across false positives for this kind of thing.

inland oyster

restive grove
#

Usually because mods are tampering with things the same way a virus can

tawny kindle
#

(sometimes win11 yells at me about my own files if I download them from nexus SDVpufferdizzy )

high current
#

yeahh, said same thing to me while re downloading farm type manager

tawny kindle
#

each new file can take time to register as "safe" in anti-virus databases and such, unfortunately

restive grove
tawny kindle
#

though I think pathos goes through the trouble of signing things with a third-party service? SDVpufferthink it's been a while

#

and yeah, VirusTotal will usually have a lot of red marks if anything's actually dangerous

high current
#

i did the same thing with windows and everything was clear

vale folio
#

so i just drop dowloaded mods on the mods folder?

#

and launch smapi

#

?

if you unpacked them, that's how it works

apologies if this has been asked a thousand times already -

I understand that the new update is supposed to be more mod-friendly? and it changes the way mods behave? and i know the modding community works fast, but i'm not expecting anything to be updated right away. however!! is there some sort of like. guide? to how mods will work going forward?

inland oyster
#

mods work the same

void wren
#

:O!

inland oyster
#

it just changed some coding stuff

high current
#

i literally opened smapi and it was complaining ab everything'

inland oyster
#

i'll instantly get bonked if I say something wrong

#

so apparently I didnt say anything wrong

void wren
#

i mean, i would assume some stuff hasn't been updated to the new coding yet.

high current
#

like a lot of things were red, for example ridgeside was downloaded wrong even tho i didint touch it

!log

native dragonBOT
#

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.

high current
#

so i just removed all mods and ill try the new farm type without mods'

#

i cannot be arsed

inland oyster
#

actually most of the mods

void wren
#

thank yoooou!!

high current
#

idk what happend but everything was red lmao next time ill try to download only few mods

#

i went a bit overboard last time..

inland oyster
#

you could send the log

high current
#

i mean i already deleted everything, can u still see the error log?

restive grove
#

well you may have mixed 1.5.6 and 1.6 versions

high current
#

I’m very impulsive, i just couldnt be arsed to deal with it😭

#

At least rn i have the chance to try the new farm type without mods

lost lotus
#

Is it a good idea to remove mods and SMAPI completely before the update?

scarlet quail
#

you can, just don't boot until 1.6 drops if you do that

lost lotus

Error Handler is built into the update, but not until then

I want to have some mods, can I already download the new smapi and some updated mods to get ready, or do I have to wait until the update is actually live?

#

hi all - apologies in advance if this has already been asked/talked about (I just joined this server to seek help on this). I'm super illiterate when it comes to mods, my late husband installed them all for me so I could play SVE and make it all pretty lol I haven't played in a while and I don't want to use mods with the update so my questions are 1. is there a way to just disable them temporarily? 2. if not, should I just delete them? if so, how do I do that and will it completely break my saves that used them? sorry if stupid questions! really wish he was here to help me with this 😅

#

Quick question, is there going to be an official 4.0 update for SMAPI or is it just the alpha?

restive grove
#

few ways, can just run the game executable externally from steam (if you're using the steam version) and that will bypass SMAPI and then just make your new vanilla save.

restive grove
outer pawn
#

Gotchaaa

#

Is there a time specified for the new update launch?

restive grove
#

negative

twilit patio
restive grove
#

by going to properties and blanking out the launch line

so it's no longer being told to load SMAPI

twilit patio

craggy sonnet
#

i've got a question about updating mods

#

do i just delete the older folder?

#

like farmtype manager got an update, but the older folder has 6 items and new has 3

#

so i'm worried

dire fractal
#

When is the update releasing

restive grove
#

sometimes mods generate files upon launch that wont exist in a fresh save, but I wouldn't worry about FTM

craggy sonnet
#

ahhhhh

#

gotcha

#

is it like that for framework mods?

restive grove
#

but just backup your mods folder if you are worried or want to have versions that work for 1.5.6

long lynx
#

question when updating my mods, on smapi.io in mod compatibility, are mods listed green that also say "broken" still safe to update?

silver blade
#

I have like 100 mods in my main save, will all of them just break when the update comes out unless the mods get updated too, or will some probably be fine?

scarlet quail
#

some probably fine

#

most probably not

silver blade
#

What is it about an update that causes older mods to break exactly? I'm really curious

scarlet quail
#

!1.6

native dragonBOT
#

Stardew Valley 1.6 is the next big game update, which makes it more moddable for mod authors. See...
• new content: https://twitter.com/ConcernedApe;
• other changes for players: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Migrate_to_Stardew_Valley_1.6#Vanilla_release_notes;
• changes for mod authors: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Migrate_to_Stardew_Valley_1.6.

The release date for PC is March 19; console and mobile will follow sometime after. Alpha builds are releasing nightly. Check the pins of #making-mods if you want to help test it or get one last chance to update your mods!

scarlet quail
#

because it makes it extremely more moddable, the code changes break a ton of mods

fallow jacinth
silver blade
#

Oh! That makes a lot of sense, I'm assuming a lot of framework mods that are required for other mods might become obsolete if the update is adding better mod support into the game itself?

#

At least 20 of my mods are different frameworks I think haha

fallow jacinth
#

Im only using about 10 mods for 1.6 as opposed to a previous 50+ for now. Cant live without my automate

craggy sequoia

Best thing to check if compatible is checking when it was updated on nexus and author's notes on the posts and/or the description

Several mods will update a few minutes/hours after the update comes out as well

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
#

yes, but they may be broken in full release

Depends on the mod, when it was realeased, etc.

silver blade
#

Not sure if it was my mods or the fact that I tried to go back to a previous save, but my SMAPI has a lot of red error text and my game just keeps taking me back to the menu screen instead of loading my save every time I click it SDVpufferdizzy

What's the red text?

it started happening right after I deleted my save and renamed the _old files so I could go back a day, but I am also running a lot of mods so I'm not sure if it's the mods or the save edit

it looks like one of my framework mods might be the main issue because I am seeing spacecore mentioned a lot

It should work, but you’ll have to download the updates for the mods. All the updated ones should be listed on the smapi website, for now you should remove the ones that haven’t so it doesn’t break your game

Hi! I have a save file that i used heaps of mods on a few years back, I lost all the mod files and now it doesn't want to launch in vanilla anymore. Is there anyone who knows anything about how to fix a save file?

tight lynx
#

I was working on uninstalling my mods on my Steam deck in preparation for 1.6 (I want my first playthrough to be vanilla). I deleted my mods just fine, but SMAPI kept not offering to uninstall itself... So I uninstalled Stardew Valley as a whole and reinstalled it. This should be fine, right? Or is there anything else I should do?

Hi all, first time with a big patch following playing modded.

  1. Do I wait before trying to launch the game again?
  2. If I do launch it and something's not working will it break the save?
  3. In the context of Steam Deck, how do I make sure all udpates are applied to my existing mods, if applicable? (Not sure if they'll get updated/break as part of 1.6
  • 3a Is there like a Mod Manager or something that'll just update all my existing mods where applicable?
