[hasty flume]

You're missing dependencies for certain mods. Read the log, it provides links to the mods you need to install

[night bough]

The new error is with FileNotFoundException: Content\ApryllForever.PolyamorySweetRooms/dict.xnb which screams needing a reset is why I ask. You did completely delete PolyamorySweet from your mods folder and then redownload it, right?

[knotty hill]

yeah, I just deleted the polyamourysweet rooms and beds parts. is that wrong?

I did reset it as well via steam

[night bough]

Ah

[hasty flume]

Pretty sure that mod is obsolete, as it's function got absorbed into cp

[tiny cliff]

where can I read log?

[hasty flume]

Click on the link you sent

[night bough]

You need to delete the entire polyamorysweet folder

You can't replace bits and pieces

[tiny cliff]

yes

[night bough]

Like I said, when you download polysweet its one folder with many folders inside. However, you always delete and replace the whole folder

[hasty flume]

That's it. That's your log. Scroll down and read the red text

[knotty hill]

yes

I replaced the whole folder then deleted the bits I dont use. I'll go add them back in though

[night bough]

Wait

Which bits did you delete?

[tiny cliff]

That?

[hasty flume]

Yes

[knotty hill]

jst polyamoury rooms and bed

wehn I just disabled them via config it threw out errors was all

[night bough]

Just so you know. All of the mods loaded in in the log you sent before this newest one. This newest one doesn't have rooms or bed.

This screenshot ^ is from this (reply) log

[night bough]

Okay. Give me one sec while I check the nexus page

[tiny cliff]

thank you so much!! now everything is working

[hasty flume]

Good to hear! Remember to read your log when you send it. Sometimes the answers are right there

[knotty hill]

any idea what sprite batch b is btw?

[night bough]

Its a spritesheet in the packed up game files

[tall lion]

does anyone understand whats missing ❤️

[knotty hill]

it needs the furniture catalogue part of the mod. 🙂

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/23073

[tall lion]

werid i had it ...

no wait i didnt have it but it worked before ... tyyy

[night bough]

@knotty hill can you see what you make of what im saying here?

Im trying to figure out how when you say you're putting things back you end up sharing a log where they're gone

[knotty hill]

oh should I try again with rooms and bed installed?

I dont think they're causing any issue but sure i'll do tha tthen

[night bough]

Thats not what I said

Okay. Let's do this please

[knotty hill]

i wasnt sure what you were saying sorry. x

ok ive clean-added polyamoury sweet again

now ill go crash it

[night bough]

Thank you. Make sure you leave it as is, and set your config how you'd like it to be set

[wintry venture]

so i can delete it even if its a dependency to other mods? or theyll break too?

[night bough]

Thank you for your patience. And sorry this is taking so long, I didn't have any way of knowing you were having these config issues with polysweet and were removing parts of it.

[hasty flume]

Any mod that requires it is probably outdated and won't work anyways

[wintry venture]

ill play test without it

[night bough]

Seb, you can try deleting it then grabbing a log to see if any mods are being skipped and then check at smapi.io/mods if there are updated versions without the dependency

[hasty flume]

What mod is it that needs it?

[wintry venture]

honestly, no idea im not sure if its a furniture mod or map mod but ill check if any breaks

nothing seems to be breaking so i guess this is a W?

[knotty hill]

i had loads of stuff in my mod folder I couldve' sworn were dependancies then nothing broke when I deleted them. I wonder if mods get updated to not need them or something

tbh I rarely read full changelogs

[wintry venture]

usually they do

if they're up to date

[night bough]

Okay. Now you have some map issues too. FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Content\Maps\Custom_TsAH_EX_3rdFloor.xnb'. Did you change anything in PolySweet config?

[stark horizon]

That's from T's Apartment House

That mod is breaking things

[knotty hill]

i toggled the third floor off, yes

wait how would it be breaking stuff when im outside and placing textures

it works fine otherwise

[stark horizon]

The asset itself is missing, regardless of your config

The game expects there to be a map and there isn't one

[potent beacon]

Yo guys, got some funky red text and I wonder what it means. It keeps closing my menus so the game wont crash but idk why this is happening. https://smapi.io/log/fd49d5bb24484b2e975498442bbfc24c

[knotty hill]

ooh okie, will fixing the map errort fix the issue with textures then?

[stark horizon]

Void, Aspen has an invalid tilesheet

[stark horizon]

It's possible, yes. Try deleting and reinstalling the T's Apartment House mod.

[potent beacon]

oh yeah i dont have the extra map laers mopd, but what I mean is on page 2

sorry i just realized it was so long it has another page pfft

[knotty hill]

ok thankyou, ill try that. 🙂

[stark horizon]

OH, you mean the Item Menu. Lemme look

[potent beacon]

(i am also jsut seeing i fricked up some recipes oosie, gotta fix those lol)

[stark horizon]

It's Sword and Sorcery that's crashing the Item Menu

[potent beacon]

ye like, the fiorst ones were because I had the item spawner open and the last one i had a shop menu open and it also closed

huh

[knotty hill]

i just redownloaded t's apartment house, and the file just isnt there.

theres a 3rd floor_ENT map but thats it

[potent beacon]

hm, thats weird cuz i have the latest sword and sorcery...

[stark horizon]

Then that mod has errors and should be reported to the author. I can't say for sure that keeping it actively enabled won't continue to cause these errors, but I suspect that it will.

[stark horizon]

The error is specific to the MeleeWeaponTooltipPatch2.Postfix

sorry for ping

[scarlet belfry]

PLEASE HELP ME this is a bit of a long tale, but I promise you all the details I am about to list before are relevant

I am at the end of year 1 of a playthrough, and I’d rather not have to re-do it all now. When I started my save I picked the opossum pet from this mod. https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/22165?tab=posts

By fall I started wondering; why haven’t I gotten my pet yet? So, I checked when you’re supposed to get it, and apparently it is during spring year 1. Uh-oh. First thing I tried was to change my pet type at the shrine of illusions at the wizard’s tower. To my dismay, the option to change my pet did not show up. Next, I tried doing the same with the stardew save editor mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/127

I changed my pet type from blank to 1 out of 4. Once again, nothing changed.
So, I decided my best shot was to go to the save file itself and change things there. I made a backup of it, just in case. Then I changed the text detailing my chosen pet from opossum to cat.

I opened my game and I got a dog… that meows? It was bugging like crazy, so I went back and changed it to dog instead. Hurray! I had a dog that barks, as it should.
But then I noticed my dog would just… stay in one spot… and not move. I checked my SMAPI log, and OH BOY, lots and lots of red.

Please help me resolve this issue. I’d hate to have to restart my save just because of a pet mod bug. Here is my SMAPI log: https://smapi.io/log/901b9b4c2f0b444c96cde50f0f4d1dba?Mods=game

[potent beacon]

hm, time to try and see if the alpha in the ES server will make me be able to keep the menus open lol (also i dont mind pings)

[naive leaf]

okay, this may seem obvious, but did you download the cp version of this mod or the xnb version of this mod?

[scarlet belfry]

CP

[knotty hill]

I don't really nderstand how a missing map that i'm not using would be causing crashes only when placing textures on sprinklers. Are those parts connected somehow? It works as long as I don't use AT on sprinklers

[naive leaf]

alright, cool! That eliminates a problem. Can you verify your game files via steam for me?

!reset

[native dragon]

Please reset your game files. This will fix any broken game files, but won't affect your save files or mods.

If you use XNB mods, see using XNB mods for more info about why they're deprecated, and a list of Content Patcher alternatives.

To use this command, type !reset.

[naive leaf]

just the top one

[scarlet belfry]

Okay, give me a few minutes to do that.

it usually takes anything from 5 to 10 minutes for my steam to do it

[stark horizon]

Because the error occurs in the base game code when it tries to propagate assets that aren't there.

[naive leaf]

Don't worry, I can be patient.

[scarlet belfry]

I will also give you a new SMAPI log once I have done that

I didnt save the game last time, so

[naive leaf]

That's perfect!

Well not the saving part but the log part

[knotty hill]

Ahh okie, are indoors and sprinklers both on the same tilesheet then? Spritesheet B was mentioned in the error

[stark horizon]

It's not about where the sprites are located per se; it's about what the code wants to do with those sprites/assets.

[spiral mantle]

(pasted from anotehr channel) I have a question. So I play modded stardew, its been a month or so since I played, but today I logged on to check on my farm. The weird part is that my file says day 19 of fall, which is correct, but when I log onto the file, for some reason it shows that I'm in spring and all my progress since is deleted.

[knotty hill]

I think I get it, thankyou x

[spiral mantle]

im not really sure how to pull up logs, but its worth mentioning that the smapi thing that pops up did say i wouldnt be able to get steam achievements because steam isnt loaded?

[knotty hill]

log!

[spiral mantle]

how do i do that skksks

[knotty hill]

ohh it might be cloud save data

[naive leaf]

!log

[knotty hill]

have you saved since youve had the issue? It's worth loading steam then trying again

Okay so now what I want you to do is try that mod on a fresh save, and try and get the pet via marnie

[scarlet belfry]

Okay, I will at some cheat mods to make it quicker

[naive leaf]

Save corruption!

!rollback please be a command please be acommand

[native dragon]

Dealing with Corrupted Save Files

Vanilla: Reverting to a previous save file is the safest way to restore access to a corrupted save. However, this comes at the cost of one in-game day’s progress.

Modded: SMAPI creates backups of your save files as dated zips stored in the save-backups folder inside your Stardew Valley folder (as long as you didn’t delete the Save Backup mod). Named as the date they were generated, they can be used to roll back a save beyond just the previous day, which could help escape especially persistent save corruption at the cost of in-game progress. Download the zip and follow steps 3 and 4 in this guide.

To use this command, type !rollback.

[naive leaf]

if that STILL doesn't work (as others have the same issue), you're gonna have to force the event

However, you're gonna have to figure out how to get rid of the dog.

to force the event you type debug ebi 897405 into the smapi console.

It's also a bug where the opossum just sits around and does nothing.

[scarlet belfry]

I made a backup of my save from before I changed it to dog, and before I got a pet.

[naive leaf]

you're brilliant!

[scarlet belfry]

So, I have done a new save now and I should meet the requirements for getting the pet, however the event isn't triggering

[naive leaf]

Okay, try debug ebi 897405 into the smapi console

[scarlet belfry]

just like my save

oke

[naive leaf]

it'll force the event

it might be kinda funny, but yknow

[scarlet belfry]

should i be outside or inside when i do that

[naive leaf]

Probably outside

it'll teleport you either way, so yeah

outside might be better

[scarlet belfry]

it says that it is an unknown command

[naive leaf]

[scarlet belfry]

[SMAPI] Unknown command 'debug'; type 'help' for a list of available commands.

like this

[naive leaf]

one sec

do you have console commands as a mod?

like in the mods folder

[scarlet belfry]

oh, I probably do not

wait

hold on

maybe i do lol

lemmr check

[naive leaf]

Make sure you do, and in the mean time imma force this myself

[scarlet belfry]

oke

aha, i dont for some reason

lemme re-install smapi

[naive leaf]

there we go, cuz it worked for me

The event was a little buggy, but it still worked

gave me the cat

lemme try the oppossum.

[spiral mantle]

so do i need to delete the newest backup? that's the one that is stuck in spring despite this file being in fall.

i extracted the one from april 12 and put it in the saves folder, is that right?

[naive leaf]

You don't need to delete the latest back up, no

[naive leaf]

was that the last time you played the game?

[spiral mantle]

yeah

[scarlet belfry]

It worked for me too.

Ok, now let me go get my actual main save file

[naive leaf]

the opposum didn't want to download into stardrop so uh 😆

[naive leaf]

then yes, you extract that and place that into your saves folder.

if you did everything correctly, then you should have your save back.

[spiral mantle]

it did not work lol

i did as the guide said tho :((

[naive leaf]

...oh wait you didn't do that right

[spiral mantle]

hdsfjshgfjsfh

what did i do XD

[naive leaf]

lemme read the guide

...okay now lemme do it

Okay so it seems like it's missing a few steps, but

When extracting the smapi backup, you need to pull out the save folder with the name of your farm

@spiral mantle

[spiral mantle]

what do you mean pull it out-

[naive leaf]

like...copy paste it.

delete the original one first

[spiral mantle]

the save folder?

[naive leaf]

One sec. maybe visuals will be better.

[spiral mantle]

im still pretty new to modding, its been awhile since i've bene on my pc so i get back and everything is just gone lol

[scarlet belfry]

@naive leaf so, it works, but my possum barks, the mod author was supposed to replace the cat not the dog, and have a custom sound.

and, I still cannot change the pet by the wizard's tower /:

[naive leaf]

okay so i cant get obs to work to save my life, so

[naive leaf]

the mod might just be mega bugged then, i'm sorry.

[unreal void]

Heyoo, I wanted to add Stardew Valley Expanded into an already active save. Anyone know if there are any smapi commands I can use to reset the terrain like the trees, bushes, etc in areas outside of the farm?

[scarlet belfry]

I'm going to go back to an even older backup of the save so make sure it isn't my doing

then, if that doesn't fix it, I will report it to the author.

[naive leaf]

!rtf

[native dragon]

Reset Terrain Features (https://smapi.io/mods/#Reset_Terrain_Features) is a mod that lets you reset, clear, or generate everything that spawns on a map using an in-game menu. That's especially useful when changing maps mid-save, as the debris will otherwise use the old layout (causing things like trees in the water or bushes blocking exits).

To use this command, type !rtf.

[naive leaf]

okay! After backing up the save of your current playthrough, delete the main folder. Do not delete the copy.

Inside the folder with the day of the last time you played, (which is april 12th), take the folder with the same name as your farm, and copy it to the stardew valley save folder.

[spiral mantle]

well that is in the save folder

[unreal void]

Thank you!

[spiral mantle]

are you saying delete the zip file i extracted the backup from?

[naive leaf]

No. no no no.

FUCK

WRONG REPLY

god i hate life today okay

I cannot make this any more verbose.

[spiral mantle]

its okay im just dumb and bad with computer sjhsdfsf

put it into toddler speech

[naive leaf]

I legit cannot.

I am putting it as simple as possible.

Bah, lemme try getting obs working.

[spiral mantle]

okay just tell me which of these i need to copy or delete

i already unzipped that most recent backup, and those four files are in the Saves folder

[stark horizon]

Can you send a screenshot of what that looks like, please?

[compact beacon]

I've never modded let alone modded SDV and I have no clue what to do now, I have SMAPI, Visual Studio and C# but I don't know what to do next

[odd urchin]

I just hit vortex and figured that'd do it. Mod file is called Nyapu's portraits inspired by dong

[scarlet belfry]

@naive leaf is there a way to edit the save file to change my pet type and effectively remove any traces of the possum mod?

[odd urchin]

Do I need to download specific files?

[naive leaf]

you can possibly get rid of the pet entirely in the save, remove the possum mod, and then restart the marnie event

[scarlet belfry]

Could you help me try that?

[naive leaf]

i have no idea how to do that, I'm sorry

[pallid summit]

i don't recommend editing your save file for this. if it's your first pet, you can type debug cmenu in your SMAPI console to open the character window and change your pet

[scarlet belfry]

ah ):

[scarlet belfry]

O: I will try that

[naive leaf]

I have no idea whatr all the mod manager download did, so go to the downloads and manually download the ones you want.

some of them replace the mod files of expansion mods.

[scarlet belfry]

THAT FIXED IT OMG, TYSM

[stark horizon]

The mod that's erroring is [CP] 00Vibrant Pastoral Recolor Intl - does this mod just contain a tilesheet?

[scarlet belfry]

And thank you @naive leaf for helping me to the best of your ability up to this point! I really appreciate it!

[pallid summit]

glad to hear it! after you've slept and saved, it should be safe to remove the mod

[leaden nimbus]

It only contains a content.json and a readme.txt file
I downloaded it from the Relaxing Greenhouse mod page itself; it was working fine before but it suddenly became like this

Now I'm wondering if it was affected after I downloaded this mod 😅 (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/21778)

[stark horizon]

It's possible, yes. Have you tried removing that mod?

[stark horizon]

Also, if it only contains a content.json and a readme, then it's not a "mod" in the sense that by itself it can't do anything. It would need a manifest.json to be a "mod."

The instructions are very vague, indeed.

Let me see if I can parse out what the intent is.

I believe that the intent is you need to go into the VPR mod folder and replace the content.json there with the one from the [CP] 00Vibrant Pastoral Recolor Intl folder.

[spiral mantle]

im nervous to delete smth i wasnt supposed to delete so im just kind of 👉 👈 s fsdjfkd

[stark horizon]

Could you please send a screenshot of what's inside your "Saves" folder?

[leaden nimbus]

Yes I did try to remove the Buildable Greenhouse mod and the red text was still there (and the interior being vanilla coloured)

I will be trying out what you suggested though

[stark horizon]

You can remove the [CP] 00Vibrant Pastoral Recolor folder from your mods folder after you've tried that. Removing the folder will get rid of that error.

[leaden nimbus]

Oh, what I did was transfer and replace the content.json file from the "Intl" folder to the "00VPR" folder and deleted the former instead. Not sure if that's what I should've done but the greenhouse interior is fixed now! (As well as the red error from SMAPI gone)

I got another 'build another greenhouse' mod... hopefully that won't break things any further 😅

Thank you so much for your help!!

[stark horizon]

Glad it's working for you!

[spiral mantle]

@stark horizon the first image is everything inside the saves folder

[stark horizon]

Ok, so if I understand correctly, you want to rollback to a previous save before the main one listed in "Cardinal_372174661" correct?

And the "copy" is the backup you just made?

[spiral mantle]

the copy of "cardinal" is old, i didnt make that today

[stark horizon]

ah, okay. So those are the old ones that don't show your current progress

[spiral mantle]

the 2024-04-13 smapi file is an extracted save backup, i was told to put it into the saves folder, but that didnt fix the issue

the second image shows the 'save backups' folder

[stark horizon]

Ok, so what I'd like for you to do is open another finder window, take that extracted save backup, and put it on your desktop. What we need is actually inside that folder

[spiral mantle]

so the 2024-04-13 smapi folder

that was unzipped

[stark horizon]

Yes, that's the one to put on your desktop

[spiral mantle]

okay its on me desktop

[stark horizon]

Now open that folder

[spiral mantle]

proof sjfsdfk

opened, it has the name of my world in there

[stark horizon]

Can you show me a screenshot, please?

[stark horizon]

Perfect. Now, in the other finder window? You want to remove the other "Cardinal" folders. You can put them on your desktop just in case.

[spiral mantle]

so you want me to remove those from my saves folder?

[stark horizon]

Yes

We can't have two folders with the same name in there

[spiral mantle]

what abotu steam autocloud lol

[stark horizon]

Leave that

[spiral mantle]

okay they're on my desktop now

[stark horizon]

Now, take the "Cardinal" folder you just extracted and place it in your Saves folder

[spiral mantle]

does this look right

[stark horizon]

No, you don't want the whole extraction, just the "Cardinal" folder inside it

[spiral mantle]

ohh okay

is that good

[stark horizon]

Yes! Now launch 🙂

[spiral mantle]

got it! what caused this issue in the first place?

[stark horizon]

Not sure, tbh?

[spiral mantle]

last time i played it was perfectly fine

[stark horizon]

Sometimes it's a weird syncing error

[spiral mantle]

... evidently that was a pretty old backup and im in day 20 of summer

oh well, that was the newest one i had in the saves backup folder

[stark horizon]

Sorry to hear that

[stark horizon]

I highly recommend making backups of your Saves periodically, above and beyond what SMAPI already does.

[spiral mantle]

hpw do i do that?

[stark horizon]

I usually make an additional backup once a week

Just copy your saves folder and place it somewhere else - like on your desktop

Anywhere that's not the game folder

[oak widget]

Hi, sorry i know you dont accept dms but im having a small problem with my custom mod

[stark horizon]

What's your issue and is it a mod you've made?

[oak widget]

One friend did just additional dialogues mod, but after i got asked question from abigail and i try to choose one option - it does not let me continue and loops the answer so it repeats

[stark horizon]

So this is a custom dialogue mod - is it published on Nexus or another mod site or is it still in progress?

[oak widget]

Nope its private mod i requested as commision

im waiting for that guy to answer but someone might be able to help with it

[stark horizon]

Ah, okay. So this is probably more of a #making-mods-general question since it would require fixing/correcting the code.

In order to fix it, we'd need to see the code.

[oak widget]

yup okay okay ,ill try to wait a bit longer and if he is off for loong time ill try tot send it there etc

thanks

[stark horizon]

No problem!

im trying to get stardew valley expanded but when i go to download the farm type manager it says i can only download on vortex, is there a way to do it manually

OMG TYSM

[plain oyster]

Has anyone else encountered crashes related to equipping/unequipping clothing? I have a crash log parse but I'm hoping this is a known issue of some kind.

[stark horizon]

!log please - it's much easier to try to figure it out if we can see what the errors are. 🙂

Log Info: SMAPI 4.0.8 with SDV 1.6.8 build 24119 on Microsoft Windows 10 Pro, with 23 C# mods and 0 content packs.
Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[plain oyster]

I already updated the mods and tried again, didn't bother getting a new log but I could if that would help

[stark horizon]

Did you by chance install any mods that asked you to override the game's original assets in the Content folder?

[plain oyster]

Not that I know of. At least, not on this save. I have a much older save where I used several Content Patcher mods, but this save doesn't use it.

[stark horizon]

Content Patcher wouldn't require asset replacement.

This happens when we see people try to "replace" the game's original assets with a new one. Not a mod, but a direct image override, or xnb file

[plain oyster]

I didn't do anything like that recently, and I'm actually on a different machine than when I played the old save, so unless Steam would somehow preserve that then I don't think that couild be it.

[modest grail]

Not a bad idea to reset your files just in case something went weird there

Looks like you're using Vortex, or have before, which can sometimes cause some some weird behaviors that may clear up on a manual reinstall of SMAPI or checking the integrity of your game files.

[plain oyster]

yes I have been using Vortex, but so far every single crash I've had has been from clothing changes. shirt in particular for some reason.

[stark horizon]

The game is trying to "draw" a texture and it can't

So it's possible that one of the spritesheets was misplaced or overridden

[plain oyster]

Does the fact that running the game modless works just fine matter?

[stark horizon]

Running the game or this save file?

[plain oyster]

this save file, and doing the things that made it crash before

so launching via steam rather than smapi

[stark horizon]

Just to clarify, you can remove all mods from your mod folder, launch the game, load this particular save, and not get any errors?

[plain oyster]

I didn't remove the mods. I'm running it right now, just launching it from Steam instead of using the shortcut that would launch it with mods loaded. It's running right now, and I've already taken every crash-inducing action I can think of. I can try again after removing the mods, if that's important.

[stark horizon]

Ah, interesting. Can you explain what you mean by the shortcut? Launching from Steam should produce the same result as if you double-clicked on the .exe, for example.

[plain oyster]

Vortex has a button to launch stardew with smapi. Running it via Steam results in no mods loaded.

[stark horizon]

It very well could be a residual file hanging out somewhere as a result of Vortex, then.

[plain oyster]

Okay. I'll see if I can figure out how to do all this without Vortex, since Vortex seems to somehow be the culprit.

[modest grail]

I wonder, if you open StardewModdingAPI.exe directly, do the errors still show up?

[plain oyster]

So the only place that exe appears is in Vortex's appdata folder. I'll try but I don't know what that would change, since I imagine that's what Vortex uses. I assume it would normally be elsewhere but Vortex's weird staging stuff is what results in it being elsewhere?

[modest grail]

Normally in a manual SMAPI install, it'd be in the same location as your Stardew Valley steam game folder

So you'd see Stardew Valley.exe and StardewModdingAPI.exe in the same folder

[plain oyster]

....is that the exact name of the file? Because I don't actually seem to have one of those and now I'm confused.

[modest grail]

Well, the SDV one has a space in it

[plain oyster]

ah okay

[modest grail]

(I had to doublecheck, LOL)

[plain oyster]

Okay, I found a second copy of StardewModdingAPI.exe there, not sure why it's not showing in search results

[stark horizon]

There are people in the server who could help you troubleshoot Vortex, but they're in a different time zone and aren't likely awake

If you would like, Sage, I could ping one of them for when they do wake up?

[molten musk]

idk if i should be fucking embarrassed or be happy but i found my mistake, in the music category i wrote "Ambient" with a lowercase "a" thats why stardew wouldnt load it... im so sorry and thank you for your help

Oops, couldn't parse that file. Make sure you share a valid SMAPI log.

[dense pendant]

thats what came up

[stark horizon]

So you want to find the file itself, not the html document. There are instructions on the page for finding SMAPI-latest.txt

[plain oyster]

Okay, just to follow up from earlier, I ran the copy of StardewModdingAPI.exe that's in the same folder as the regular exe and finally got the point where it crashed. (had to wait for event to start, it's very groundhog day over here)

I need to do some other things for awhile, so I'll have to get back to this later. Going to try to be more systematic about it with a clean start etc, but that'll take awhile.

btw does this channel have a spoiler policy? I got in trouble for that earlier in another channel since it's the new content that's crashing the game.

[dense pendant]

im sorry this is taking me so long im struggling to find it

[plain oyster]

You said that mods weren't running at all, so I have to wonder if you even have a crash log. Did the game even crash or did it just run without mods?

[dense pendant]

i installed a few different mods and the only one that ran is a menu recolour

[plain oyster]

did the game crash? if not you wouldn't have a crash log.

is the menu recolor mod one that requires smapi?

[dense pendant]

also i cant follow the instructions well on the website because my window button isnt working for some reason

yes the meu recolour require smapi

[plain oyster]

you should at least have a smapi log then

[dense pendant]

and i cant remember the game ever crashing

[dense pendant]

i probably do but im just pretty stupid lol

[plain oyster]

when you paste

%appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs

into windows explorer's bar, where does it take you?

[dense pendant]

hold on

i cant press the windows button because for some reason it aint working, and when i try and manually click ontp windows and paste, it doesnt let me and just take me straight to settings

[plain oyster]

oh, you probably have some setting on that hides system files or something

[dense pendant]

ill be back in a minute im gonna grab a drink!

[plain oyster]

you can get to the same place that Win+R would give you by right-clicking the Start button and hitting "Run"

[dense pendant]

okayyy

[plain oyster]

were you able to get there via right-clicking Start?

[dense pendant]

yes omg!! give me a second and ill input it

im so happy lol

[plain oyster]

glad I could help. I'm not able to help your with your actual log, unfortunately, since I'm here for help myself, but I do at least know my way around windows 🙂

[dense pendant]

its just saying windows cant find it

[plain oyster]

what is saying that?

[dense pendant]

when i paste

%appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs

into the run bar

[plain oyster]

oh

so the folder isn't there.... what if you take off the ErrorLogs part?

[dense pendant]

it says windows cannot find it and to double check ive typed it right or sommet

[dense pendant]

okayyy

nope still comes up with the same thing

[plain oyster]

that's very odd to me. Do you know how to navigate to your AppData folder manually?

[dense pendant]

i can try my best

what am i looking for in the folder?

[plain oyster]

The Stardew Valley folder, if it exists

but let's get you to AppData first 🙂

[dense pendant]

okayyy

[plain oyster]

You'll need to start in C and look for a folder called Users

(assuming you have a typical setup where windows is installed on your C drive)

[dense pendant]

i found it

what next?

[plain oyster]

then go to your profile, so called Luka or whatever you named it

[dense pendant]

mhm

[plain oyster]

there's a folder there named AppData. if you can't see it, you'll need to allow windows to show you system files

[dense pendant]

also i would quickly like to say im sorry if i come across as rude! im really awful with tone and stuff online and i really appreciate your help!

[plain oyster]

no you're fine 🙂

Do you see AppData folder?

[dense pendant]

no but im double checking a different profile to just double check

[plain oyster]

ALL profiles have their owen

own

so that's not the issue

Windows hides it by default

it doesn't want you messing with it by accident

since it's all your settings basically

[dense pendant]

ah okay i see

do you know how i can change it so i can see it?

[plain oyster]

To view it, go to File-->Change Folder and Search Options

(at the top of your explorer window, if it doesn't show a File Home etc then you'll need to unhide that too)

[dense pendant]

how do i unhide that?

[plain oyster]

You can't see a place that says File Home Share View above the address bar? Okay that one will take me a second

[dense pendant]

no im sorry 😦

[plain oyster]

it's not your fault, your computer is just more locked down than mine and I need to look up how to find it

actually wait, are you on windows 11?

[dense pendant]

yes i am

[plain oyster]

....woops. I've been assuming windows 10, and I don't know a dang thing about 11, for all I know they took that out. let me look it up real quick.

Luka - it looks like all of your mods are still in their zip form. You need to extract them, then put them into your mod folder. 🙂

[modest grail]

There is also a post from the dev on the mod page for LNH's More Custom Farms, but I am uncertain if this is relevant for you. If the issue existed before some of the updates, it might be, as the Greenhouse is mentioned: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/21632?tab=posts

[dense pendant]

oh okay! how do i do that?

[stark horizon]

Windows 11 should have a built-in extractor. If you double-click on the zip file, it should extract them.

[dense pendant]

okayyyy

what destiantion should i extract them to?

[stark horizon]

Normally you would extract them to your downloads folder, and then move them to your Mods folder

[digital sail]

Hey if anyones experienced in using always on servers for stardew, can they help me out with this mod for stardew that set up always on servers? https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/20659/?tab=description

I'm a bit confused on how the host client works

Like should it just be my own steam account that im running it on? Because i would prefer to try to run it on some kind of server on an account that isnt my own

I also don't know much about stardew so idk if this would affect my players level or something since it looks like the host is some kind of bot thats always playing

[modest grail]

Yes, it uses the host's steam account and a config to tell your character what to do when you are in 'server mode' and you have to turn off server mode to play yourself

[digital sail]

So if i set up some kind of linux server or something running it how would it work?

Would my account just clock insane amounts of hours and stuff?

And if i logged in would i be taking over that host bot?

[modest grail]

You'd clock a lot of hours, and I don't believe you'd be able to join the game a second time in the same account, so you would need to use F9 to toggle server mode off to play as the host bot yourself.

It does auto max the host bot's levels, so you would likely need to change that as well if you wanted to level up your skills normally

[digital sail]

Would there be any clean ways of doing it so that i don't have to buy another copy of the game for the host account

[modest grail]

I believe the mod is intended to function so that the host account is not a separate account, so I am not sure.

That may be a question better asked in #modded-stardew , or posed to the mod author on the NexusMods page.

Modded farmers is more likely to have folks who may have used it before present, if anywhere

[digital sail]

If i wanted to do it in a way where the host account is not separate should i just try and fix the level thing and then mess around with the server whenever i try to get on?

[modest grail]

I don't quite understand the second part of that question, but yes, you can change the level settings easily enough for the bot. It looks like most people just change the data JSON file to match their player levels before putting it back into server mode

[digital sail]

Alright tysm for the help

[modest grail]

The mod page is much more descriptive on how to set it up, good luck!

[digital sail]

By the second part i meant like shut down whatever i've got open in an oracle cloud server or something and then play it like normal

[modest grail]

Ah, yeah, I have no clue on that one

[sly elm]

no worries! it's great you got it to work now!

 ---> FileNotFoundException: Could not find file '/home/maria/.config/Stardrop/Data/Selected Mods/[CP] Market Map/Assets/Paths..tsx``` there seems to be a tileset/sheet problem with the map (a bug in the mod basically)

[eternal ravine]

right click, run in console.
or type sh linux.sh in your console after cd/opening the directory

[eternal ravine]

Yeah, that's what I thought as well. I was just wondering if someone knows a fix because it's a mething (linux do be like that sometimes) or an actual bug

ty

[shy orbit]

i don't know how those tsx things work, but someone in #making-mods-general probably knows how to fix it

[sudden locust]

All i get is an open in, not a run in

[eternal ravine]

you may want to extract the files first

[sudden locust]

Again?

[eternal ravine]

you're looking at the archive right now

[sudden locust]

Well i already extracted it

[eternal ravine]

the run that .sh

But I have no idea about this steamdeck thingy. I got a proper pc :p

[sudden locust]

I do too xD im trying to get the same mods working on it

[shy orbit]

that program seems to be some kind of archive viewer with the archive open instead of the actual extracted files

[eternal ravine]

ARK is the archive programm on various linux distros

[old kite]

I've done the bit with dialogue expansion

is there an alternative for winter grass since it says its not compatible

[eternal ravine]

• Winter Grass is ||redundant with 1.6||
• (BL) Desert 1.2.0 is missing Bus Locations
• Canon-Friendly Dialogue Expansion for All Friend-able Characters is installed multiple times

[sudden locust]

Okay i did it, linux is definitely a learning curve, having to open the achive then extract instead of just extracting

[eternal ravine]

You can just right-click > extract

[old kite]

ok thank you, but the reason why I dont have the bus location is because I was told to delete it. Is it also redundant

[sudden locust]

All that gives me is extract to archive

[eternal ravine]

Well, this mod you're trying to run has it as dependency. So it's probably outdated

[eternal ravine]

extract to archive doesn't make any sense.

[old kite]

Oh ok so can I just delete the desert mod as well

[sudden locust]

Not disagreeing

Does steamdeck not need the launch property?

Like in steam

[eternal ravine]

And I've never heard of Bus Locations being redundant. It was broken for a bit after 1.6 came out

[old kite]

Is it... I was told to delete cause they said none of my mods use it

[eternal ravine]

No idea about steam deck
My linux system did not, as the installer did everything automatically.

Well, that doesn't mean the mod itself is redundant.
redundant = base feature in 1.6 basically

[gaunt gust]

Linux and Mac do not set launch options

[old kite]

oh ok thanks!

[sudden locust]

Well that might be why i was crashing

The only reason i havent switched to linux on my pc is a bunch of games to run on it

[gaunt gust]

Nah, Linux modding is inherently more fragile

[sudden locust]

That too

[sly elm]

it does not

I can say that explicitly for steam deck indeed

[hexed herald]

does somebody know what mod is causing this issue? I have 233 mods, and most of them ive tried updating, but both Fairhaven Farm, and Aurora Vineyard have multiple textures overlapping. I just have no idea WHICH mod it is doing this

I dont think any other buildings are effected, Blue Moon Vineyard is fine, the Wizard tower is fine, Hat mouse shop is all good too, it seems to just be these two buildings

It doesn't effect gameplay that much, I can still enter and exit the buildings, It just bugs me a bit because they look so messed up

[clear bronze]

[sly elm]

you most likely just have two mods that apply textures to these buildings. provide a log and one of us can check which ones that might be

[hexed herald]

I have some newer mods ive added recently (had to make a new game due to RRRR mistake i made, but didnt want to have to really restart from the very beginning) so I got some mods to speed things up, but Im just not sure where the texture comes from

I dont have a village recolor or retexture mod as far as I know? I mean, apparently I must have one, but since I dont have a mod that does all the buildings, im not sure where its coming from

[sly elm]

I'm sorry that didn't help. I'd start by removing old frameworks that are obsolete or straight up don't work correctly anymore, like pytk lite, SAAT, Shop Tile Framework and TMXL map toolkit. In the log it says clearly which packs belong to which framework, so you have a list there of which content packs you might have to search a replacement/update for (or do it yourself >_>)

[shy orbit]

09:18:06 TRACE SMAPI Content Patcher edited Maps/spring_z_extras (for the 'Vibrant Pastoral for SVE' content pack) this probably

[sly elm]

you also should remove pytk lite, SAAT and shop tile framework - none of your mods use it anymore anyway so it shouldn't remove anything. and then what I assume is changing the house is vibrant pastoral for SVE

yeah that will be it. the mod has been updated in 2021 the last time. in the posts of that mod there's a possible replacement mentioned including instructions

[sly elm]

bumping is fully okay with the amount of time you leave in between - I'd advise you to do a short summary of the issue and copy paste that with your bumps, cause it's quite the hassle to have to jump back to the original issue at hand and this would allow helpers to jump on the topic more easily when they take a look at what's still unresolved in this channel.

for convenience I added the original message for others to find quicker

#archived-modded-support message

[fervent saddle]

Have you tried running no mods, only consolecommands and savebackup

[clear bronze]

yes, same issue occurs

[fervent saddle]

Can you down grade smapi to 4.0.7

(I think that's the lowest you can go that's compatible with1.6.8)

[orchid locust]

So I haven't played in around a year, and I am very intimidated to update my mods.

I have like 300 mods.

[clear bronze]

same issue occurs

[orchid locust]

I've began the process of updating, but quite a few don't have updated manifests so they are still showing that they are availible to update

[hexed herald]

oh okay! thank you so much!

[dire fractal]

I keep trying to install smapi on my steam deck, but when I try to run the Linux file in Konsole it keeps saying “line 4: internal/linux/SMAPI.Installer: No such file or directory”. What does this mean?

I’ve ran Stardew a couple times and then switched to desktop mode but I still can’t run the Linux file for smapi

[orchid locust]

I wish I could purge all of my mods and start from scratch but that is intimidating too

[fervent saddle]

It's not hard to do, just time consuming

Going through 300 mods would probably take few hours

[orchid locust]

I spent most of last night going through and updating, and im still getting a ton of errors

a good use of my friday night honsestly

[sly elm]

I find it a lot easier to start fresh with a list on the side - cause it ensures I won't have old unnecessary mods in there that became obsolete

many mods changed dependencies

[sly elm]

did you extract the folder?

[orchid locust]

I know the PPJA family have been superseeded by a different mod.

Honestly, I didn't intend on playing quite yet as I'm playing a different game, but I want the game in a playable place when I do start playing again.

[sly elm]

your log is telling you pretty exactly what to do in the first red part, even giving links, I'd do that first

SAAT and TMXL toolkit can be removed completely as well

[orchid locust]

I know for a fact I've updated all of the mods that its telling me I can update. I feel like the manifests aren't correct.

I'll remove TMXL and SAAT

I used to update all of the mods manually, but I feel like a mod manager would be easier.

For my other games I use Vortex, does it work well with Stardew?

[sly elm]

Error Handler, Custom Music and Dynamic Game Assets delete as well

[orchid locust]

Thanks for your help

[sly elm]

I am sure you updated everything it told you in purple. However, there's a red section in that log and that is all not updated at all

or can't be used because of missing dependencies

vortex is not recommend, but stardrop is

!stardrop

[native dragon]

Stardrop is a mod manager written specifically for Stardew Valley. See the Stardrop wiki for installation and usage.

If you have issues with Stardrop, see the issue report guide.

To use this command, type !stardrop.

[orchid locust]

I was hoping updating the stuff in purple would remove the red.

Can stardrop scan your already installed mods? Or will you need to start from scratch with it

[sly elm]

due to the massive changes in code, and many mods changing who updates them now, the purple update notifications only show you a fraction of what needs updating when first switching from 1.5.x mods to 1.6

[sly elm]

it can!

[orchid locust]

I really do appreciate your help

[sly elm]

you can always manually change stuff in your folders and it'll appear in stardrop, you just might have to refresh the mod list to accurately reflect changes made outside the manager, just like any file browser would need

[orchid locust]

I'm downloading stardop now.

[sly elm]

stardrop also tells you if you're missing requirements for a mod which is also neat, and you can have different profiles for easy switching should you want to not use the same mods for all saves

[orchid locust]

if I download mods from nexus using stardrop will I have trouble with Vortex trying to take over when I use mod manager download?

[sly elm]

that is probably the case, yes. do you need vortex for another game?

[orchid locust]

Yeah I use Vortex for my Bethesda games

[sly elm]

it's probably easier to do manual downloads then, you can download them all and then via "add mods" stardrop extracts the zip files into the right places, it's only marginally more work

[boreal heron]

Hello, is this where I can get help with my error logs?

I haven't played for a few months, and was trying to update mods and it was mostly working then everything got messed up.

[orchid locust]

We are in the same boat

The game had a pretty big update which also caused a ton of mods to be outdated or no longer needed or have been replaced by other mods

So when you use stardrop for downloading, will it delete the old mod folders and replace them with new ones like serveral mods require? I've always hated doing that because it would always revert my config files to default settings.

[sly elm]

there's a setting in stardrop to keep profile specific configs which should keep them for you, so they get put it in unchanged afterwards

[boreal heron]

Yah I keep trying to write down a list of what to delete, add, and update which might be making me crazy.

[sly elm]

What is killing me is there are like 20 mod that I know I've updated, but smapi is telling me that they still can be updated.

so I just post the url here

[native dragon]

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.

To use this command, type !manifesterror.

[sly elm]

the ones I saw in your log up top will all be manifest errors

[sly elm]

oh at first, update smapi 😅

[orchid locust]

Thats pretty much what I figured, I remember doing that quite a bit in the past

[boreal heron]

is it not the latest version 😭

it said it updated itself

[sly elm]

that can't be

4.0.8 is the current one

[boreal heron]

omg

well that would help

how do I get the latest version

[orchid locust]

the smapi page that you use to upload you log also has the download file for the latest smapi

or nexus

[sly elm]

smapi.io is the first place to check, I'd choose nexus to download in the menu there

[sly elm]

yep indeed, thanks

[boreal heron]

Okay so its downloading now 😅

[sly elm]

then you unzip the file, run the installer that has windows in it and when it asks you to install or uninstall, you hit the key for install just like the first time - it cleans up after itself for you

[orchid locust]

Looking at stardrop, it seems I only have a dozen or so broken mods, but I think I'll go with the log file

[warm echo]

hii sorry if this has already been addressed, i'm really new to modding. if anyone's free to help, does anyone know how to get the HD portrait mod working without the aerocore mod requirement? i saw aerocore is obsolete now and no longer required, but the HD portrait mod won't work without it

[sly elm]

use "portraiture" instead for now

[carmine arch]

hihi so if i put mods into another folder inside the mods folder will they still work? i am playing multiplayer with boyfriend but i want to take all my expansion mods out of my mods folder because he doesnt have expansion mods and i dont want the game to kill itself

so i was gonna put all the expansion mods into another folder

that i just

yoink out

and yoink in

[sly elm]

I'd also go with the log file. it's always the most extensive overview. if you wanna fix all your mods today it's gonna take a while but I can absolutely help you figure out replacements and what can stay etc

[sly elm]

you can absolutely do that! you could also use stardrop mod manager to enable and disable mods with just clicking them if you want another option

!stardrop

i didnt know about that tysm 😭 need

[orchid locust]

I think I'm going to do it little by little and work on one error at a time, I am still in the middle a different game, but I want to get it up and running by the time I decide to change games

[sly elm]

me irl just a month ago 🤣 it's not being promoted actively anywhere but here I think, so many people don't know about it

[sly elm]

sure, you can always ask in here if there's something jumping out at you or not working, we'll try to answer everything we can

[boreal heron]

there latest version now

[sly elm]

okay that looks better! I'll check that

[boreal heron]

okay thanks sm!

[orchid locust]

Looking at the compatiblity list there is a replacement mod

Even better artisang goods

[sly elm]

okay first thing: remove pytk lite, SAAT (all parts),TMXL map toolkit, and shop tile framework

[boreal heron]

okay!

okay pretty sure I got them

[orchid locust]

Well have to take a break because its seriously becoming a complusion and I'm not enjoying it.

[sly elm]

take care of yourself! this isn't going anywhere

[orchid locust]

I'll probably come back to this a bit later, thanks again

[sly elm]

next step is updating what's obvious, so everything at the top that says to update, go to the pages and update those mods - they're all up to date. make sure to delete the old mods, and not just write into the folders as that can lead to errors

and it seems like you'll have to be diligent with the deleting, as some mods are double in your mods folder

[orchid locust]

And I thought getting Fallout highly modded in a stable state was tedious.

[sly elm]

updating mods for stardew valley usually is not tedious, it's just that this update integrated a lot of frameworks into the game itself, making it easier for future modding

[boreal heron]

ohh okay

[sly elm]

many mods cut down their requirements from 3-4 different frameworks to just 1, but that includes them needing to be rewritten

[orchid locust]

I agree usually modding Stardew is relatively easy even without a mod manager. I knew this update was going to change things a lot. Which is why I’ve procrastinated on even looking at the log file until today.

[hearty parcel]

do i need to backup my mods before updating smapi or does it leave them alone

[sly elm]

it doesn't do anything to them

[hearty parcel]

👍 thank

[compact beacon]

i've never made a mod before and I have all the software i think I need (SMAPI, CP, TMXL) and it's running though steam, however when I load up the SMAPI on steam, vanilla stardew boots up...Help?

[vocal moss]

You have mods installed yeah?

Apart from base mods like CP

[compact beacon]

this is for booting up my own

[vocal moss]

Wdym

[compact beacon]

i'm interested in making my own mods and after following the tutorials to access the TMXL Map Toolkit amongst other mods for mod making, they aren't showing up and I am unsure as to why

[vocal moss]

Ah I'm not familiar with that toolkit

[sly elm]

that toolkit is outdated

[sly elm]

I'd go to #making-mods-general, they can point you in the right direction

ah wait you want to set up smapi first

[sly elm]

when you say it boots up vanilla, what do you mean by that?

and what do you mean with loading up smapi on steam?

[vocal moss]

I assume they did the setup of pathing it through smapi on steam

[compact beacon]

stardew with no mods boots up, and i did

i did the guide's steps and added it to my library as a non-steam game

[sly elm]

have you added any mods yet?

if you start smapi, the only thing that changes compared to regular stardew is a console window plopping up, does that happen?

unless you're on Mac, then that won't show either

[compact beacon]

only the content patcher, and the map toolkit (which i now know is outdated, searching for a replacement)

and i'm on Windows, the game boots up as normal, I make a farm just for playtesting

[vocal moss]

For the toolkit, don't you have to "use it".. before you launch stardew? Unless I'm misunderstanding and you can change/create code while running stardew...

[sly elm]

you're not gonna see anything changed unless you add mods

you can try finding a log, so we can see if smapi is installed in the right place

does anybody know wether clowns squeky tools is still used

[sly elm]

it is, but it's bundled in with another mod

delete all the old fellow clown mods, they all got restructured

the new ones you'll want to download are Passerby Cemetery and A New Dream, and in the dependencies of those you'll find Clowncore, and I think it's bundled in there? if not, it's in Passerby Cemetery

sword and sorcery is gonna get the same treatment, if you haven't done that already - delete everything old you have of that, replace with this https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/12369

Hey guys trying to install SMAPI on a brand new fresh stardew steam install, running the install on windows file closes immediately, or when opened as admin it shows 'the system cannot find the path specified" - cant find anything useful on this online, have tried re-installing stardew and re-downloading smapi

[lean star]

try running the installer.exe instead \internal\windows\SMAPI.Installer.exe

[silver oasis]

thank you that seems to be opening it properly!

[marsh tree]

I’m currently having to use the Mac version of SMAPI and for some reason when I play two days in a row, everything gets super slow. Is this a known issue?

Oh I tried restarting and it’s still slow now so I dunno what’s causing it

My partner seems to think it’s a memory leak?

Basically when I leave the Mac alone for a while it fixes itself but I can’t play for more than like a day

[lean star]

we get that every once in a while, some users are apparently restricted from running batch files

[remote dock]

If i use Stardrop as a mod manager which launches SMAPI - lauch through steam, still o k ?

[sly elm]

yes

[remote dock]

what if i want to lauch stardrop through steam?

put this insted of the orignal path "FULL_PATH_TO_Stardrop.exe" %command%

[lean star]

could be a memory issue but a leak wouldn't miraculously fix itself
does it only happen when you play modded or in vanilla as well? does it happen if you run only SMAPI without mods?
might be something induced by a specific mod, in that case you can always send a log here

I am not sure of that, if I do that on steam deck I get the "oops, you're not connected to steam" message, but could be different on other systems. Maybe someone else knows this better than me.

[remote dock]

Mhmm, im on windows so i download mods - add them through stardrop - launch the SMAPI thorugh it which opens steam. without achivevements being disabled.

[marsh tree]

Ok I’ll try those things and get back to you. Also everything is still slow even after I’ve closed it but it seems to be triggered by running Stardew

Quitting steam entirely helped the slowness

[lean star]

in the end it runs out that steam's the culprit

who knows

[remote dock]

@marsh tree whats the problem ?

[marsh tree]

Now the Mac is saying it’s dead but it’s on charge

[remote dock]

Playing on a mac ?

[marsh tree]

So it’s also massively draining the battery I guess?

[lean star]

you wouldn't be the first case I had where it turns out that the game was lagging because of a dying battery

[marsh tree]

Yeah unfortunately, I’m interstate and away from my beloved PC XD

It’s weird though it’s been charging all day

[remote dock]

are you playing on battery with a connected charger ?

[lean star]

is it just plugged in or does it actually charge the battery?

[marsh tree]

It’s plugged into the charger?

[lean star]

but does it say it's charging

[marsh tree]

Yes

Lil lighting bolt is there

[lean star]

can that be an issue for macs?

[remote dock]

I'm using a dell mid- laptop works just great.
But playing on MacBook?
It's Definitely the issue

[lean star]

huh

[remote dock]

Having same issues with other games ?

[marsh tree]

Hmmm well I tried running Surviving Mars earlier and it was also very slow but I assumed that’s because it’s more beefy

[remote dock]

Since you mentioned " slowness" I assume that ur battery charger goes off-on

Happens with me when I disconnect the charger.
Everything slowes and screen gose a bit dark

[marsh tree]

Yeah I guess but it still seems to be Stardew that’s draining the battery really fast I think? But yeah it might just be a coincidence that the charger has decided to crap out at the same time… Although the light to show it’s charging isn’t going off

I am also in a hotel so maybe the power supply is not great?

Yeah I’m starting to think it’s eating up more power than it’s getting from charging

That would explain why leaving it alone for a bit with the game off helps XD

Can you try removing Better Chests and seeing if the issue still happens? It looks like it is patching the Carpenter's Shop (specifically when it's trying to let you use resources to build from a chest)

[modest grail]

Are you by chance trying to propose / get married to anyone on the days when you are crashing on sleep? If so, try removing Custom Spouse Rooms until after you have proposed and saved the day

There's a known issue with getting engaged and CSR

[boreal sparrow]

yeah thats prolly it. Im trying to marry everyone, will I have to do that each time?

[modest grail]

Each time you propose, CSR will need to be disabled on proposal day, yes.

You can re-enable after

[boreal sparrow]

ok so I dont need to wait until after the wedding or anything?

[modest grail]

Wedding was me being over-cautious, just the day of proposal is probably enough to have it disabled for

But if it still crashes when you put it back, then wait until wedding.

if i click any place to build it close real quick

i wont see the coops or barns, and etc

[modest grail]

Sounds like you have a mod that's letting you build in those extra locations, which may or may not be the issue

The thing immediately before the error in the TRACE log is Hudson Valley Buildings, specifically the Coop paint mask, but the log doesn't show player actions, so it's hard to know exactly what the issue is

[tawny lily]

I might have to disable and enable certain to see what is causing this... sigh

time to troubleshoot i guess.

[modest grail]

Start with Hudson Valley, and then you may need to do the half and half batch method, yeah

Remove half your mods + their dependencies, see if it's still broken, if so, it's in your remaining half. If it's not, it's in the half you removed first, so you can add half of THAT half back in and check again. Still annoying, but a bit quicker to narrow it down

[tawny lily]

i think i might know.... i just add kira mod and AT form recently and hudson I did see an error once before.

[modest grail]

There were a few people complaining about the paint masks added by Hudson Valley Buildings causing issues, but they seemed mostly visual, so I can't be sure if it's related to this one.

hello! trying to play SVE for the first time. How do I know the mod is properly installed? I have all of the required ones but I don't see the additional characters in the social tab and so I'm thinking it didnt properly install

[hasty flume]

If it isn't, you'll be seeing red text in your smapi log

[north mortar]

where do i see my samapi log

[hasty flume]

!log

Important note: Your computer username may appear in the log. If your username is your full name, please be aware of this before uploading it.

Please share your SMAPI log file. To do so:

1. Open this page: smapi.io/log.
2. Follow the instructions at the top of the page to upload the log file. (Don't copy & paste from the console window!)
3. After uploading, it will show a green box with a URL to share. Post that URL here.

Please do it even if you don't see any errors. This has useful info like what mods and versions you have, what the mods are doing, etc. If the issue didn’t occur in your last session, please load the game to the point where the issue occurs, then upload the log.

To use this command, type !log.

[north mortar]

ahh ty

[hasty flume]

You can also check your smapi console if the game is open. That's the black window that opens before the game

[north mortar]

hm the error logs folder is empty

[pallid summit]

SVE will log directly to the console whether it is installed correctly. you will see either "everything looks okay" or a big pile of red text saying "hey it's not right"

[hasty flume]

If the location of the log is empty, then you may not have launched smapi correctly

A new log should be generated every time you open smapi

[tawny lily]

I think i might have found the culprit... at least select few mods pokemn ranch or AztecViper's Fish of Stardew or Special Power Utilities

going to add one at time to see if i see the red again, note: it happens late and early game

honestly my guess it happens between pokemon ranch or AztecViper's Fish of Stardew

Sooo, it Pokemon Ranch.. I just saw in their Nexus page, there is a bug with robin won't open the building menu.

and there is a little hot fix for it. Delete two line in the .JSON.

[north mortar]

I got it working!! ty

[tawny lily]

Just in case someone else comes here with the same problem.

[slate viper]

hey yall

if i paste some code in here would anyone be able to decipher it for me? its an error message that comes up when i launch smapi

the issue doesnt happen until i click load, then it warns me that an exception occured while trying to access my main save

[pallid summit]

you will need to cause that to happen, then upload your log from that session, so we can see the error (it isn't in this log)

[slate viper]

okay!

[pallid summit]

but, it sounds like your save might be corrupted, so

hm

weird

[pallid summit]

hm, ok. so this comes up when you hit the load select screen, and (i assume) the affected save does not show up in the list?

[slate viper]

thats the weird thing, the save DOES show up

ive opened it once and it seemed fine, i was kind of too scared to try opening it any more but it is still there lol

[pallid summit]

well, it's not corrupted, so that's good news

[slate viper]

very good news!

[pallid summit]

did it just start happening recently? did you change your mod loadout?

[slate viper]

i just started downloading mods today haha

[pallid summit]

ah. so this is an existing save?

[slate viper]

yes

[pallid summit]

(that's almost certainly not a problem)

since installing mods, have you played a day and saved the game?

[slate viper]

no i have not, ive been too nervous about corrupting the file

[pallid summit]

ok, well more good news: SMAPI comes with a mod called Save Backup which backs up your saves automatically

[slate viper]

that is reassuring to know haha

[pallid summit]

[20:02:29 TRACE Save Backup] Backed up to /Users/bella/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOS/save-backups/2024-06-09 - SMAPI 4.0.8 with Stardew Valley 1.6.8.zip.

the error is probably safe to ignore

[slate viper]

ok thats good to know, thank you so much :) the mods seem to be working on all of my saves, including the one thats mentioned in the error message

[pallid summit]

(since your save loads and seems fine). if it persists after playing a day and saving, then i might get concerned. but i have a feeling it will go away after a day

[slate viper]

ok i will give it a try! thank you!

[pallid summit]

and if something goes wrong, your backed up save is at the path above 😉

[slate viper]

thank you!!! i appreciate the help so much

[pallid summit]

enjoy the modding lifestyle

[rugged solar]

Any reason why I can't buy the mermaid pendant? It gives the "Buy (5000g)" option but when I click it nothing happens

I have 14k gold so that's not the issue

[boreal heron]

that's it now its better but still says similar things

[rugged solar]

Figured it out nvm

[modest grail]

You have Swords and Sorcery installed twice as well, one's located at Mods\NEA and COT for SDV 1.6-12369-1-10-0-1715576035\NEA & COT\ and the other's at Mods\Sword__Sorcery\Sword & Sorcery\. There are [SMAPI], [CC], and [CP] component folders that all need to be removed from one of those locations.

[boreal heron]

how do I find those

[sly elm]

search for sword and delete all that belong to that mod, I'd say, they should all be named similarly

and then do the same for nea

[boreal heron]

all of it?

[modest grail]

I gave you the exact file paths for where the folder is 🙂

Delete the NEA & COT folder and the Sword and Sorcery folder in your Stardew Valley Mods folder, the other folders for NEA are inside it, so those will be removed at the same time.

[copper glacier]

I just updated Data Layers and now when I press F2 it doesn't open the mod features anymore

I also just updated Automate and it isn't working either

[hasty flume]

Both those mods just got updated today, right? Try rolling back a version

[sly elm]

did you check if the keybinds are still the same?

[compact verge]

Sorry to interject, but why delete both? Wouldn't deleting just NEA and COT for SDV 1.6-12369-1-10-0-1715576035 suffice?

[sly elm]

sword and sorcery is older

and my plan was to be safe, so I recommended removing everything and then installing again anew to make sure there's no remnants in those folders

[compact verge]

Ah okay.

[sly elm]

remove SAAT, and other than that I recommend opening generic mod config menu and checking the keybind tab in the upper left, it shows all keybinds. could be that the keybinds changed, then you have to adjust them to what you want to have again. if that doesn't help, do what Megan said and downgrade to the version before for now

[copper glacier]

That's the first thing I checked. I think I'll have to roll them back like Megan said

[robust yarrow]

There are two different Hudson valleys. My version of the Hudson valley buildings doesn't have paint masks so if someone had used paint masks before installing the mod, the original paint masks get overlaid and they just need to be cleared. The other version only adds paint masks for the farmhouse

[modest grail]

I figured it wasn't likely to be Hudson Valley Buildings that was their issue, was just noting it was the thing immediately before it in the TRACE log (which tracks, since that mod changed the buildings, and would need to load when the carpenter menu is loaded). 🙂

[covert moth]

how can i remove smapi when im running mods with curseforge?

[restive cypress]

So I had a look at the tutorial on how to get the modpack to work and it requires smapi for the mods to load https://youtu.be/EDrE-VQhRCM?si=MuI5ApAR-RgSQm3v so I'm struggling to understand how your friends can play modded without smapi because that's impossible

Do you mean remove the smapi console?

[covert moth]

yes i think thats what i need to do. i removed it from my files but smapi still pops up when i click to play stardew

[restive cypress]

Unfortunately there will always be the second tab open when playing as the console command tab is required for the mods to load. If you're trying to play vanilla minecraft then you would have to open the stardew.exe if you've changed your game's startup settings.

[covert moth]

okay thank you ill look into it

[lone wigeon]

hello, is there any way I can move the statue that connects the farm warp somewhere else on the farm using mods?

[boreal heron]

so now I just re-add sword and sorcery

[lone wigeon]

or some kind of tool that allows that

[restive cypress]

Do you mean change the location of this with mods? If yes, you can change the location with a mod

[lone wigeon]

yeah and the trees, what mod would i use

[lone wigeon]

and are the statue and trees connected?

[velvet spire]

hi uh i downloaded smapi, put it into xbox games thingy, i got it launching with the game and stuff but when i put mods into it and launch the game it doesnt launch the mods i put into the folder?? ):

[lone wigeon]

@restive cypress what mod could i use?

[restive cypress]

No they're counted as separate entities, to move the bushes you could use the 'Let's move it' mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/20943?tab=posts) however you would have to create a mod to move the warp location. You could ask #making-mods-general for any help

[lone wigeon]

ok thanks

[restive cypress]

To clarify, I originally thought your question was if it was possible to move the warp statue with a mod. I didn't realise you meant if there was a pre-existing mod

[restive cypress]

Its looking a lot better now thanks sm!

I will have to continue tmr but you guys really were a great help.

[restive cypress]

I see the issue you'll need to extract/unzip all the mods for them to work

That or have stardrop (a stardew mod manager) unzip them all for you

[blazing bridge]

can someone help me? im trying to instal fishing mod but it didnt work. already install the smapi but i dont understand the rest

[restive cypress]

You'll need to put it inside the Mods folder

[blazing bridge]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh

thank youuuu

i'lll try

[restive cypress]

This one

[lone wigeon]

the lets move it mod isnt letting me move the statue

and all the settings are good

[dense dust]

is there a way to keep the cofigs of mods to be untouched so when i update mods i dont need to go through them all over again.
with the mods i have it can take me like an hour

[restive cypress]

"...however you would have to create a mod to move the warp location. You could ask #making-mods-general for any help"

[lone wigeon]

oh ok

[restive cypress]

You could either keep a copy of the config file before deleting the mod or use the stardrop mod manager to remember it for you

[dense dust]

kk

[restive cypress]

There was a mod that let you move the warp but it hasn't been updated since like 2019

[blazing bridge]

i still dont see any diference after open my stardew :(

am i doin it wrong?

[dense dust]

how fix?

[blazing bridge]

this is my first game im trying to mod :'D

[dense dust]

or is there no fix

[dense dust]

need to put the mods in the "mod" folderr

you have everything in the mod folder

put JUST the mods in the folder

[modest grail]

Looks like Extra Fish Information does not have an update available at this time, so it's just broken for now.

[dense dust]

hmmm

[modest grail]

(you can check at smapi.io/mods !)

[hasty flume]

You have smapi installed in your mods folder which really shouldnt be possible if you've done it right

[dense dust]

dang i guess i just have to look though nexus all over again and make another modpack for vanilla

[blazing bridge]

ohh
is it the file with application extensions type?

[dense dust]

sigh

Delete your entire mods folder and start from scratch, and follow the guide exactly

[dense dust]

put your mods, like save cofig, antoher fishing mod etc

if you want to make it easier, try using Stardrop

dose all of this for you

@blazing bridge

[hasty flume]

Stardrop can't install smapi for you akaik
