I’m not sure what you mean but I have it downloaded with steam and I pasted the path as told into the steam ‘launch options’

And I run it from there

[vital rivet]

so a command prompt window opens up along with the game?

can you upload your SMAPI log in that case?

!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.

[tawny tendon]

No

[vital rivet]

so your launch options looks like "path\to\steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

[tawny tendon]

Let me add that again then, one sec

[vital rivet]

(repace the "path/to/" with your actual path btw)

[tawny tendon]

Yeah-

Alright now it’s launching with SMAPI

I was missing the ‘%command%’

Thank you so much

[vital rivet]

sweet, all good then?

[high oxide]

anyone know where this item is from ? i don't think i have it installed but it showed up in my game

[timid garden]

(spoiler for 1.6 decor) this bit of my farmhouse seems to be glitching a bit?

[jagged marsh]

It looks like you had https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/20598 installed at some point then removed it

[visual jetty]

It literally says what item it is in there. Lumisteria’s Serene Meadow.

[jagged marsh]

I mean, I wouldn't expect folks new to modding to know how modmakers standardize their names

[visual jetty]

Hm. Yeah, fair. I admit it wasn’t the most diplomatic answer (sorry for that), but a lot of people just see an error message – or name in this case – and immediately stop reading.

[jagged marsh]

That's fair too

[restive cypress]

Use this https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/24487

[timid garden]

thank you sticky!!

[cursive hemlock]

does anyone know if aimon's fancy farmhouse and immersive family could be compatible?

im using the farmhouse rn but dont have babies yet

[final summit]

@restive cypress Sorry it took so long to get these, but here's the screen errors my friend reported having. Btw he always plays with the top white bar visible (I don't get it but not my computer, not my rules)

[compact verge]

This is from Immersive Family's page: ``` Farmhouse

• Vanilla farmhouse, Lune Farmhouse and Bigger Farmhouse Map - Compatible, leave the highlighted areas empty (check the modpage screenshot).
• The other custom farmhouse MOD, please expect clipping and install Noclip Mode mod, press F11 during event if your farmer stuck in the wall or something.```

[high oxide]

mb i’ve never heard or had the mod installed so i was wondering where it suddenly came from

i can no longer play my year 3 steam save, i get this in the sampi console and the game loads up fine but as soon as i go into the saves, it loads in alittle then crashes before i can get out of the bed, ive tried verifying files ect -

[gaunt gust]

Update smapi

You're on 4.0.3

[regal mango]

oh i see

[inland oyster]

(i love your pfp omggg)

[regal mango]

thank you! its my vtuber OC

[sly elm]

do you have wildflour's nooks and crannies installed?

I've noticed there's sometime seeds dropping from serene meadows even though I don't have that installed, I assume there's a slightly wrong setting in the code

[regal mango]

that fixed it thank you but now my game looks like this? i also updated all the mods that needed to.

oh why didnt it screenshot when iw as in game ffs xD

inside the house, all the rooms have changed, the bedroom furniture is in the void

thats what the screenshot was meant to show

[gaunt gust]

Yup

Lots of crap changed in 1.6

Noclip if you want to clean that up.

[regal mango]

noclip is a mod im guessing?

thank u

[regal mango]

no clipping didnt fix it, but what did was removing the "bathroom after 2nd upgrade mod"

[tawny tendon]

??? What is that?

[regal mango]

its a mod that when you've upgraded the house to the 2nd level it adds a bathroom

one moment ill find u the link

[tawny tendon]

Damn

but you can’t even use a bathroom anyway-

XNB mods often break the game and are not recommended. See Modding:Using XNB mods for more info (and a list of Content Patcher alternatives), and you can reset your content files to fix problems caused by XNB mods.

For mod creators, see Modding:Editing XNB mods for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).

hey would I be able to download Portraiture if i had PortraiturePlus?

[lean star]

yes, and you need it for PortraiturePlus to work

[delicate compass]

im getting errors now idk what happened

[knotty mist]

Hi, I used to have stardew valley expanded before the 1.6 update. Then I removed all mods for the 1.6 update. I decided to play an older game file without those mods. I was asked to have a baby and I thought I said yes, but nothing happened. It has now been 2 seasons since that time and still no baby. Also, some of my trees in Cindersap forest are in the water.

[lean star]

what error and where did you put those two?

[lean star]

not related to it; you are missing content patcher

[delicate compass]

i thought i updated it

[lean star]

and farmtype manager

are they in the mods folder?

[delicate compass]

yes

i checked and it said it was there but it wasnt(?) so i moved it

[lean star]

so it's working now?

[delicate compass]

i havent checked i dont know if theres asnything else im missing

[lean star]

most of your errors are "missing content patcher", you do have loose files in there as well as an XNB mod (DokiDokiDialogue)

[rough shard]

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

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

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

To use this command, type !androidsmapi.

[rough shard]

you cant android mod

legally

[lean star]

that being said, those versions are for 1.4.5, not even 1.5.6

[delicate compass]

Yeah I wasn't sure how to fix that exactly. Any idea how to fix it? + Should the other errors come up fixed since the patcher?

[rough shard]

[delicate compass]

I'm afk rn so sorry

[lean star]

another one for the "I got stardew to marry satoru gojo" pile?

[delicate compass]

hello im back

[delicate compass]

idk if you meant me aaa

im guessing I should try to reboot

[lean star]

no, not you

[delicate compass]

[lean star]

you moved content patcher to right folder, yes?

[delicate compass]

yes correct

to mods folder

[lean star]

did you start the game again?

[delicate compass]

im going to rn

[delicate compass]

ok so its running now but im getting these

ive never had an issue with them but yeah

[lean star]

out of the box, that one is a SDV 1.6 mod, it requires SMAPI 4.0.0 to run
android isn't even updated to 1.6 yet

[delicate compass]

also this too idkaaa

i have a question about the PortraiturePlus aswell but i shall wait

[lean star]

that assets folder belongs to a mod, which one I don't know but main menu and Preview could be part of it too

[delicate compass]

ahhh i see

im not sure either

[lean star]

as I said, DokiDoki is an XNB mod, it replaces game files, not an SMAPI mod
you can convert it to a CP mod, however

!xnbtocp

huh I thought that was it, oh well

!xnb2cp

[native dragon]

If you'd like to convert an XNB mod to Content Patcher, there are two utilities you can use:

• Content Pack Builder by holythesea is a step-by-step Content Patcher mod creator which can be used with either existing XNB mods or PNG assets.
• XNB2CP by anotherpillow is an open-source, web-based converter to unpack an XNB mod and repackage it as a content pack.

You can convert any mod for personal use, but you should check the mod permissions before publishing your conversions.

To use this command, type !xnb2cp.

[delicate compass]

trying to figure this out, it is a bit confusing though nvm they have a content patcher version

[lean star]

Recolor Stardew Foliage - Snow cover and Recolor Stardew Foliage are the same mod, one with and one without the snow cover, delete one

[neat plaza]

legal android modding is very much possible. me, for example, just disabled auto updates and have .39 installed, I've just never bothered to install smapi

[delicate compass]

im just unsure how would i download PortraiturePlus i suppose

[neat plaza]

isn't it just a normal mod

[delicate compass]

since when I unzip the file it gives me both a dll and manifest.json folder

[delicate compass]

yes but it isnt giving me the exact file ig

[neat plaza]

yeah that's how mods work

you have a manifest and then a content.json/dll

[lean star]

the last version wasn't packed correctly
you have to extract it into a new folder

[delicate compass]

ohhh okay

so create just a new folder

[lean star]

same with JA Korokke's Uniforms Pack, that's where the Preview and Shirt folder come from

the old and the new zip, it's just missing that parent folder

[delicate compass]

ah okay. would this one and normal Portraiture be two seperate files?

[lean star]

portraiture and portraitureplus are two separate mods, they both get their own folder in mods
so just take the plus files (dll and json) and put them in a folder named PortraiturePlus

any portraiture mods you have still go in the portraiture\portraits folder

[delicate compass]

okay i got it. im trying to download the sprites mod aswell but it is also a little confusing

unsure if id keep these here

[brazen kiln]

trying to play multiplayer modded with my friend and this pops up when he tries to join

he has the chelseanpc and jade npc folders

[lean star]

sprites stay in that mod folder, there are no HD versions or frameworks of those (yet)

[delicate compass]

and could i put the content patcher into a seperate folder?

[lean star]

what folder is this?

if you cut off the folder name I don't know what I'm looking at

[delicate compass]

the content patcher

yes it only gave me the files

[lean star]

ah, indeed it does
put it into a folder then

again, the old zip has a folder, the new one doesn't

[delicate compass]

hopefully i did it right(?)

[lean star]

I do recommend using this mod, though
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/17406

it doesn't require any other mods aside from content patcher and unlike the ones you have it includes beach, winter and even festival portraits and sprites

[brazen kiln]

mighta figured it out

[wraith shuttle]

Well 3 or 4 in my case but thanks.

[lean star]

is there a reason why you use Custom Spouse Rooms instead of PolyamorySweet Rooms?

[high grotto]

poly tiles between rooms dont use the interior recolor so its very jarring

[lean star]

I think that's just a case of "delete the vanilla tilesheets inside the mod" to fix it

polyamorysweet does that unfortunately

but since custom spouse rooms extends the farmhouse layers for leah's room and you get an out of bounds error on layers, my guess is there's some incorrect dimensions given

[high grotto]

Hm, I did not change the manifest in any way to specify locations and let it work out of the box to generate as needed.
Also it breaks even using poly rooms (can't walk past 2nd spouse room, i did not try adding a new one here, just walk. Custom I can walk past them fine)

if that's not it, try Aimon's Tidy Cozy Cellar
if it still doesn't work, Walk of Life; why? humor me

[high grotto]

hm, without lnh farmhouse i can walk past, gonna try to add new spouse and see if it still works

[hard bone]

does anyone have the dc burgers high res portrait mod? mine semi works, i followed the advices given on this channel but harvey is still blurred aswell as every other characters, i have updated smapi and all the other mods required and dowloaded them but it still wont work T^T

[high grotto]

Ok, seems to be lnh farmhouse, which i sad 'cause i was really looking forward to decorating that

[lean star]

you may report it on the mod page

[lean star]

can you link the mod page?

[fresh maple]

how do I fix these overlapping fence textures :')

[high grotto]

so tested a bit more, there is something wrong with custom spouses still
lnh farmhouse + poly rooms: does not work (walking, did not test adding new spouse)
vanilla farmhouse + poly rooms: works fine (both walking on them and adding new spouse)
lnh farmhouse + custom spouse rooms: walking on them is fine, adding new spouse is not

idk if it's related but I just downloaded the AT thing

[sweet swift]

Hey, I'm new to SDV and I wanna play modded for my first playthrough bc I figure it'd make the game more fun

However, anytime I try to load it, it says it keeps skipping my mods because there's warnings. The 2 mods I have are Stardrop and Content Patcher (which I was told to download bc of a tutorial)

I'm putting the files into the mods folder like I was told, so I don't know what I'm doing wrong

[sudden summit]

stardrop is a mod manager, not a mod itself

it doesnt go in your mods folder GHSKFK

!stardrop

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.

[sweet swift]

Oh, okay
Thank you!

[urban rose]

No specific issue but I was wondering if I have a mod that requires alternative textures, is that one that is client side only or would it keep me from playing if I joined someone else’s world with it?

[sly elm]

the latter, I don't fully know why but it leads to crashes if there's a mismatch in AT packs installed between players when in multiplayer

[urban rose]

I see, ok thanks

That just lets me know which folder to put it in for everybody else bc I’m hosting a modded file lol

[gaunt gust]

It's harmless (unless you speak chinese)

Go into the mod's i18n folder and delete zh.json

[ruby osprey]

what do I do with that??

[jagged marsh]

First - are you sure you have SMAPI installed? (IE: If you launch it, do you get Stardew Valley + the console window in the background?)

[ruby osprey]

yes, it opens perfectly, it runs well and everything

[jagged marsh]

It looks like all of the Mount Vapius components are installed and running, so it should be good to go

[jagged marsh]

Alright - so where's the issue you're running into with downloading and installing mods?

[gaunt gust]

That's just a somewhat confusing reminder

[ruby osprey]

When I want to install a mod (nexus) it tells me that I don't have smapi, I have tried 5 or 6 times and I can't find what the problem is

[gaunt gust]

There should be a button near the bottom that let's you continue

[jagged marsh]

Nexus should pop up a window that says SMAPI is a requirement, but it has no way of knowing whether you've actually downloaded or installed the requirements - It just pops them up as dependencies so that people don't have to search them out

If you're getting a window like this, just hit Download at the bottom

[ruby osprey]

ok, and then what do I do, since even though I already have it and it runs well, it still tells me that I need it

[jagged marsh]

Just ignore it - All Nexus is saying is that "These mods/items are a dependency for the item you're downloading to run"

If you've already downloaded them, Nexus doesn't know or check - It's just popping the window up as it is

[ruby osprey]

ok, really thank you very much for the help, I'll see how it goes

[wraith shuttle]

Thanks

[jagged marsh]

Yeah - You have SMAPI installed so you meet the dependency. Once you download the mod, you'll get a zipfile (Usually <modname>_<versioninginfo>) - Open that zip file, and drag the folders within to your Mods folder

99% of mods will be a proper folder which contains everything, there's a few where you'll need to pick and choose a particular folder (Challenging Community Center Bundles does this), but you're unlikely to run into them when you're first starting out

hi my game is frozen at 6am and i have no clue why and nothing came up on my smapi log the first time i had this issue but it was solved when i deleted the immersive spouse mod but it came back once winter ended. my animals arent affected but the npcs are?? i also tried loading my save file on a different copy of sdv that has different mods and it worked fine so thats why i think a mod is causing it. i have a bunch of mods but most of them are just furniture or clothing mods so i don't know what could be causing it so if anyone could help that would bee amazing https://smapi.io/log/8c130efe34cf40188976703e481f8a4a

[gentle yoke]

hum why my lantern a gray bar lmao

i need to see my mods

[jagged marsh]

I can't say for sure (I don't know enough about the mods in use), but it looks like your friend has XNB mods which are a fragile and VERY outdated way of adding content to the game. I'm not sure if the errors they're generating are enough to cause fatal crashes though. You've also got old mods that aren't needed anymore like Antisocial NPC (Which is baked into 1.6)

I unfortunately don't know enough to say which mods are fully out of date though

[hasty flume]

Looks like the errors are related to the jade and Chelsea npcs. Try having him reinstall the mods those npcs are from, he may have a bad install

[jagged marsh]

Apologies - I should have pinged you for this @ruby osprey in case you miss the messages

[hasty flume]

Likely a missing texture, impossible to know for certain without knowing what lantern it's supposed to be

[gentle yoke]

yeah-

ill try do some testing with cjb

[ruby osprey]

@jagged marsh No problem, the only thing that happens to me now is that it still doesn't work (I already changed the address and still nothing, lol)

[jagged marsh]

Are you in the right directory? Should be .../Stardew Valley/mods - You'll see ConsoleCommands and SaveBackup in the folder if you're in the right path

[hasty flume]

Can you send a new screenshot of your mods folder then? Just to be certain you have the right spot this time?

[jagged marsh]

Like this, for example

[ruby osprey]

Is it the same thing, am I supposed to have a mods folder?😭

[jagged marsh]

You're still in the wrong directory

Ignore where you downloaded SMAPI to initially, it installs itself in the actual game directory

You're in Appdata/Roaming/Stardew Valley, which is where user / save data is stored, not the mods.

[jagged marsh]

Did you install Stardew through Steam?

[ruby osprey]

yes, I downloaded it through steam

[jagged marsh]

In which case - Go to where you installed it (By default, it's the directory below)

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley

[ruby osprey]

I already have it like this, I have it as you sent it

[jagged marsh]

The example you showed me was the wrong directory - If you're in the actual Stardew Valley game folder, you should see a folder marked Mods if you've run SMAPI (Which you say you have)

If so - Take a screenshot of inside the Mods folder

[ruby osprey]

like this?😭

[jagged marsh]

Yup - That's the right directory

[jagged marsh]

Put the mod folders in that folder like the two pre-existing mods (Also don't delete them, they're important to have in case you want to troubleshoot)

[ruby osprey]

but, i have this in steam-

[jagged marsh]

So you'd put the CJBItemSpawners folder in that directory

[hasty flume]

Why does it say steam 5?

[ruby osprey]

what-

[ruby osprey]

God, what am I doing wrong?!

[hasty flume]

How many copies of steam do you have?

Or did you rename the folder?

[jagged marsh]

Honestly - The fact that the SMAPI default mods are showing up in there, I'd just ignore it because SMAPI clearly was able to install and launch - It's a mystery, but a mystery for another day

[jagged marsh]

Go ahead and put the CJBItemSpawner folder in the mods folder with the other two mods you've got in there, then launch SMAPI

[hasty flume]

I'd still rename that folder back to just Steam if you can, it being called Steam5 could cause issues down the line

[ruby osprey]

How am I supposed to remove steam5?!

[jagged marsh]

At this point I'm going to say - don't worry about it unless it's breaking your steam install - If it's not, then it's just adding a problem you don't need to worry about for now

[inland oyster]

(it definitely will)

[hasty flume]

Not remove. Rename

[jagged marsh]

Folks - Let's solve one problem at a time - If steam was installed with a weird folder name, internal dependencies may throw a fit if it's renamed (IE: It was set to Steam5 by the installer itself)

For now, I want to get catv's mods in the right directory so they can actually run them

[ruby osprey]

And if you send me the correct way it should be, put it in and that's it?😭

[jagged marsh]

For now - You have your mods folder with SaveBackup and ConsoleCommands in there - You've shown that you're in the right folder with that example. Put CJBItemSpawner in there, then run SMAPI.

So your Mods Folder will contain 3 folders - ConsoleCommands, SaveBackup, and CJBItemSpawner

[plain vector]

it was the pause time in multiplayer mod!! and multiplayer info!!

[wild delta]

Hi, I was watching a tutorial to install SMAPI, and he said something about pasting properties from steam while installing, but then didnt show how to do it? I am now lost and confused.

[neat plaza]

!videoguides

[native dragon]

The Stardew modding scene is always being updated, so video guides are often outdated or deprecated.

For the latest information, see the player's guide to mods and mod author guides on the wiki.

To use this command, type !videoguides.

[neat plaza]

!launchoptions

[native dragon]

If you're using Steam or GOG on Windows, you will need to set your launch options in order for Steam/GOG to automatically launch with SMAPI. The SMAPI installer will tell you what to set as the launch options when it completes (green text). You can find instructions (with screenshots) on how to do that here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Configure_your_game_client

To use this command, type !launchoptions.

[wild delta]

Thankyou, I will check this out and come back if I have questions still!

[wild delta]

Okay, so it says if I have done this correctly, the added contents should have been downloaded. I am not getting that.

I also hope I am in the correct area for this! Apologies if i'm not

[turbid trench]

Hello, i am using the Walk of Life mod. And i kinda made a mistake. I chose a prestig profession, which changes the coop capacity. But i am already using a mod which changes that. So i removed the the level 5 and level 10 prestige professions, via smapi commands. And added a know which doesnt conflict. They all get shown the correct way when i hover over the 4 stars. But if i hover over the level 10 icon, it shows the desperado profession. Which is not learned and not affecting the game. So just the icon is wrong. I restarted my game. Slept multiple nights. Is there any fix to this graphic issue.

[jagged marsh]

How have nights have you slept in game? The savebackuo mod that comes installed with SMAPI saves the last 10 days I believe

[turbid trench]

less then 10 but since getting prestige 10 probably longer. But i hope i don’t need to get to the latest safe. I spend atleast 2-3 hours for the last days. So much progress

😖

[gaunt gust]

Smapi saves the last ten real life days

[jagged marsh]

Good correction to know - I've never needed to actually drag them back so I assumed

I've never used Walk of Life, so I don't know how it plays with the statue in the sewers - Tinkering via console MIGHT have done things in an unexpected way

[jagged marsh]

At the very least - you'll want to grab a backup save from before you started tinkering and store it somewhere else - It's lost work, yes, but at least it's there in case you need to roll back

[wary grotto]

SMAPI won't load my mod properly.

When I load SMAPI and click the load button on the main menu of Stardew Valley, one of the saves doesn't appear even though the folder is. I looked at the log and it says there's an error with the XML document.

I've stored away the broken save in a separate folder and turned the old save file into the main one.

If anyone can help, here's my log:https://smapi.io/log/f065f7a8bda0415eaca8bc64ce48f571

[jagged marsh]

Does it happen repeatedly, or was this a one time incident? I'd also store a copy of your backup saves just in case (I've gotten distracted and accidentally destroyed the original backups before by being in the wrong directory)

[gaunt gust]

Just to check: does it load if you temporarily remove spacecore

[wary grotto]

It just happened about 20 minutes ago

Currently working with the SaveGameInfo_old file, but it's still an hour of work lost

[gaunt gust]

(Do not save. Just temporarily remove spacecore and test)

[wary grotto]

Got it. I'll try.

[wary grotto]

It does not

[gaunt gust]

Hmmm

[wary grotto]

However, the SaveGameInfo_old file (that I backed up and renamed a copy to SaveGameInfo does)

[gaunt gust]

Your error message doesn't really say much unfortunately

Duplicate key...but where....

[wary grotto]

I think I might've deleted like a single character or some line of code while editing the files to replay an event

But I can't for the life of me find where when I look at the file

[gaunt gust]

Ah yeah

Problems of a giant xml file and why we don't generally like, edit save files

Instead, use debug ebi event_id to repeat events

And always make a back up before editing

[wary grotto]

How do I enter that command? Is it in the actual SMAPI program itself or something else?

[jagged marsh]

If you have the ConsoleCommands mod installed (Comes default with SMAPI, and you do), then you can use the SMAPI console like an actual console

But yeah - if you were tinkering with saves manually, all bets are off when it comes to save integrity - rolling back to a working save and not touching its internals should hopefully resolve the problem

[wary grotto]

Got it. Thank you!

[ancient monolith]

This is such a silky question, but does anyone know how to stop the vanilla bathing suit from over lapping on body mods?

[tropic minnow]

hi this is my first time downloading mods but this poped up what am i supposed to do

[sudden summit]

!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.

[sudden summit]

(stardrop is not a mod and doesnt go into your mods folder)

[sly elm]

it's a known bug that's happening in the base game (iirc, when using mods), you'll want to enter "debug killnpc Claire" into the smapi console and hit enter to take care of that

[sly elm]

move the stardrop folder outside of the mods folder, and don't put it in the stardew valley folder either. it's a mod manager and is better suited to stay outside of the game folders, to add on to what YUK1OMI already said

[cloud ruin]

Oh ok. I'm glad it's not just me. Thank you!

[tropic minnow]

so after taking it out of the folder should work properly from there?

[restive cypress]

Nah all good, I responded quite late as well. Has he tried going from windowed to fullscreen to windowed again? I've tried looking up online for any mention of this before and can't find anything

[final summit]

Actually it ended up okay, turns out he didn't know how to enter the "true" full screen without the top bar and now that he plays like that the thing's gone!

[rare ridge]

Hey so the grass farm (cp) mod doesnt run and im confused why. I chose the right farm, the file is unpacked and im trying to find out whats wrong. I restarted the game multiple times

[restive cypress]

Damn nevermind, didn't realise I could've shown that it was possible to play in fullscreen 😂

[restive cypress]

!log Could you post a log?

[native dragon]

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.

[final summit]

All good! I knew myself but he didn't so I just had to explain it to him lol. Dunno if the issue persists in windowed mode but I don't think he's interested in playing in anything but fullscreen anyway so not relevant.

[rare ridge]

AHHHH i will be right back, I might fixed it?!

Im losing it nvm

But its not empty OWO

[restive cypress]

Can you post a screenshot of inside the [CP] Grass Farm v4? It seems as though you may have accidently extracted it incorrectly

[rare ridge]

I repacked it several times, trying to open the game rn TwT I hope this works now. Im using 7 Zip for the first time and i might messed stuff up there

https://tenor.com/view/dora-dora-the-explorer-boots-yes-jump-gif-13441616326917280505

thanks for the input, that really helped me @restive cypress <33

[sly elm]

yeah it already worked properly - it's just not a folder that belongs in the game so smapi is saying "this doesn't look like a mod file", basically

[wheat pine]

Hello I have a dumb question

I am trying to get rid and or fix this issue that keeps coming up everytime I load stardew api

[sly elm]

well I can't say much more to that than that this mod cannot work coded like that

[wheat pine]

How do I get rid of it from syhowing up?

[restive cypress]

The issue is that currently it's trying to load over assets\Portraits\Abigail.xnb which is the old content patcher format. Now it should be formatted like this assets\Portraits\Abigail

As in you no longer need to add the .xnb at the end, it won't work with that method (that was the method used for 1.5 changes have been made in 1.6)

[restive cypress]

As an alternative, you could create a portrait pack for Portraiture https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/999

Hello, I want to install mod on Stardew Valley Android but I get this error in the SMAPI installer. How do I solve it?
hola quiero instalar mod en stardew valley Android pero me aparece este error en el instalador de SMAPI. ¿Como lo soluciono?

[final estuary]

Can I download "Stardew Valley Expanded" thru vortex or does it have to be manual?

[neat plaza]

!modmanagerbugs it can be manual, but

[native dragon]

Vortex (Nexus) and ModDrop both are mod managers that can help you keep your mods up to date, but they are difficult to troubleshoot. If you're looking for a mod manager that was written specifically for SDV and has troubleshooting logs built in, you can try Stardrop (!stardrop).

If you're using a non-Stardrop mod manager and ask for help troubleshooting, you can ask the Nexus Discord https://www.nexusmods.com/discord or the Moddrop Discord https://www.moddrop.com/app/about (scroll down). If you're using Stardrop, please remember to provide a Stardrop log.

To use this command, type !modmanagerbugs.

[neat plaza]

!androidmods

[native dragon]

Many mods are not compatible for Android, but there is an incomplete list of android compatible mods.

If you find a working mod that isn't on there, submit it by following the instructions here.

For mods not listed, they may or may not be compatible with android, but the Modding Android Wiki page provides more info on how to find a compatible version of a mod not listed in the first link.

To use this command, type !androidmods.

[neat plaza]

!androidsmapi i mean

[native dragon]

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

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

To use this command, type !androidsmapi.

[final estuary]

So can I just hit download thru vortex and have it work or am I missing sum

[jagged marsh]

There's a >0 chance it'll cause issues - Might be related to how SVE has multiple download options

But it's not that hard to install manually

[final estuary]

Ok thank you Ill just try manually and see if it works

[dire fractal]

okay. I want to install SMAPI but I get that error

for some reason my game says the folder of the portrait mod i downloaded is empty but it isnt?

i may just be stupid but when i tried to follow the steps again it said the same thing..

[shy orbit]

!reset the errors seem to reference Data/Fish, so this might fix it

[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.

the "reset your game files" part

[warped swan]

is there any way to use cjb cheats menu to delete buildings

[timid garden]

uh does anyone know why?

[warped swan]

I wanted to update the pokemon ranch mod but it'll break the pokemon buildings

but one is still being built

also is there a way in game to get faster mill production cause I saw it was on in the menu but I don't remember turning it on ever

[shy orbit]

smapi ignores image files so it says the folder is empty. the mod doesn't seem to be the type you can just put in the mods folder and is probably meant to be installed differently

[steady silo]

i had updated some of my mods and then extracted them into my mods folder and then when i loaded the game half my mods were gone

idk how to get them back

[timid garden]

this is what it says in the description, im very new to modding so idk how this works

[shy orbit]

i'm not sure about these instructions either. can you link the mod?

[timid garden]

here it is https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/22282

[shy orbit]

i see, i guess it uses Portraiture https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/999 and you're meant to install the portraits directly to its Portraits folder

[timid garden]

uhh damn how do i do that?

[restive cypress]

You are going to need to download Portraiture and place the Fishking's portraits inside the Portraits tab. Here's a step by step process:

1. Download & unzip Portraiture https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/999 into your Mods folder
2. Download and unzip the Fishking's Portraits, you should have a file titled Fishking's All Portraits
3. Drag the Fishking's All Portraits file into Mods/Portraiture/Portraits/
4. When in the game talk to a villager and press P

[shy orbit]

^ there you go

[timid garden]

ohh thank you!

[steady silo]

how do i get them back

[timid garden]

umm like this?

[restive cypress]

Yep!

[jagged marsh]

Yup - that looks correct.

Hit P in game when talking to an NPC to swap to the portraits

(it rotates between vanilla and any folders you have in the Portraits folder)

[restive cypress]

Could you post a log?

[steady silo]

how do i post a log

[restive cypress]

Using these steps

[restive cypress]

The best way to do would be to wait a few in-game days for the building to finish building and then delete it

the game softlocked when I went to bed, I was gonna try deleting it the normal way but I think I messed it up? it just faded to black and it's not doing anything

[restive cypress]

uhh

!rollback

[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.

[steady silo]

[restive cypress]

Yeah I'll have a look now

[steady silo]

i only have one mods folder tho

[warped swan]

hang on I'll get the log just in case

but if I revert back to the day before or whenever how do I get rid of the buildings

I forgot how many days ago I built them since that was last time I played

or at least the first one since it's already constructed

[jagged marsh]

Or at the very least, it's seeing duplicate Content Patcher mods and so it's disabling it + any mods that depend on it as a failsafe

But I'm seeing multiple mods with duplicates, which means you copied a bunch of mods into a sub-folder, or installed a second copy under a different name

[restive cypress]

Ah I see, the issue is that when you extracted the mods you hadn't deleted the old versions beforehand, which has caused multiple copies of the same mods to load so smapi couldn't load either. For future reference I'd extract via Extract Here instead of Extract to location.... Also just a tip I'd never drag and ovveride old mods as that can cause errors too.

For example smapi couldn't load "Content Patcher because you have multiple copies of this mod installed. To fix this, delete these folders and reinstall the mod"

[jagged marsh]

Yeah - in this case, it looks less like you dragged a bunch into a subfolder (So I was wrong there, my apologies), but there are duplicates of Content Patcher, DSV Core, DSV English, Lookup Anything, Tractor Mod, UI Info Suite 2

[steady silo]

so do i delete the whole folder and like do all my mods again or delete the duplicates?

[warped swan]

ok nevermind my log is too big for the wbsite to take

guess I'll try that first optoin

[steady silo]

im new to modding so i didnt really know how to update them

[jagged marsh]

Delete whichever folder is older that shares a name with another folder - Ideally, you'd only get the newer versions, but - you'll want to purge one half of the duplicates, then see what still needs to be updated

[restive cypress]

Only the duplicates, you don't have to delete every mod. Just reinstall the mods that are duplicates. To update mods you delete the old version before placing the updated version :)

[steady silo]

ohhhhh

[steady silo]

what does "purge" mean

[jagged marsh]

(For what it's worth, you generally want to drag the folder inside the zip out instead of extracting the zip because of it's habit of using the extra data from the filename on Nexus)

In this case, just deleting.

Your duplicates according to the log:

Content Patcher, Diverse Stardew Valley, Lookup Anything, To-dew, Tractor Mod, UI Info Suit 2

[steady silo]

after i delete the dupes and redownload them will all my mods be back in my game? like all 23 to 27 of them

[restive cypress]

Yep

[jagged marsh]

A bunch were disabled because Content Patcher couldn't load because of the duplicate, so yes

[steady silo]

ok thank you smm

[umbral umbra]

is the shiko festival locations optional add on broken?

[turbid trench]

ty for your help but i fixed it via reinstalling the mod 🙂

[jagged marsh]

Glad you found a solution that worked

hi! my greenhouse retexture mod isnt working n i dont understand what smapi is saying can anyone help? https://smapi.io/log/4a492fa0aa0c405da8dc9b6a351f4864

Log Info: SMAPI 4.0.8 with SDV 1.6.8 build 24119 on Microsoft Windows 11 Home Single Language, with 106 C# mods and 264 content packs.
Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[jagged marsh]

So - I can't tell which character set the mod is (Korean?), but it looks like you're running into a conflict between Lnh's First Farmhouse and whatever (CP) 지하정원이 있는 온실 리텍스쳐 is - SMAPI got a bad value when attempting to swap the greenhouse, so it aborted. I can't tell if it's purely because of (CP) 지하정원이 있는 온실 리텍스쳐, or if the conflict with LnH's First Farmhouse is causing other issues that interfered with the Greenhouse load.

There's also something going on with the Robin Is Single mod, but I don't know if that would cause the greenhouse issue (It looks like RIS can't find a custom tilesheet)

[knotty quail]

aa ok!! ill try removing the farmhouse mod and see if that'll help tysm!

removing the farmhouse mod worked c: tysm for the help!

[jagged marsh]

Yup - Looks like the interference with (CP) 지하정원이 있는 온실 리텍스쳐 caused it to fail on the greenhouse side of things - Glad it worked

[young geyser]

Hi good evening ! Does your guys' smapi do this?

it always starts to show that message endlessly whenever i join the farm of my friend which we were able to play at for a while without issues

until that error

then it just never worked

we tried making a new farm, but after a bit, the same thing happened

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

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

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

[timid garden]

is there a way to switch between portrait mods that use portraiture and mods that don't?

[raw shore]

hey guys, i want to download mods on my switch but specifically just a gender mod, i want the farmer to be referred to with they/them. i've done this on my pc before but i have no idea how to go about this with my switch. my switch is already modded so that's less of a problem, but how do i mod the game? many thanks in advance ;-;

[visual jetty]

!switchmodding

[native dragon]

Modding on the Nintendo Switch is technically possible in a very limited capacity, but it requires jailbreaking your Switch, which is only possible on select models or by physically altering the hardware of your Switch, and can run the risk of bricking your console and/or being banned by Nintendo. Only visual texture and dialogue replacer XNB mods can be installed. Due to these limitations, we do not provide guides on how to mod the Switch and it is up to the individual if they want to take these risks.

To use this command, type !switchmodding.

[visual jetty]

(Pillow (as in… that’s the username) is probably the best person to ask for specifics.

[raw shore]

yeah i thought it wouldnt be able to run smapi :-( i know the gender neutrality mod is on smapi (i loveeee it) but i dont know what other sources i can go to for the switch. thank you for this, do you know their @? or should i just search and message them privately?

i really want to play stardew on my switch as it's more comfortable for me and i miss stardew a lot 😭 i wish there was just a they/them option for pronouns instead of the gender of the character :')

[sly elm]

I don't think you can do that easily. you'd have to modify the game code yourself and then save it as an xnb file and replace the file. it's definitely a shame that while the option for gender neutrality to use with mods was implemented with 1.6, it's not native to the game apparently (well, and you don't have 1.6 yet anyway)

[raw shore]

dang ;-;

[neat plaza]

I HAVE BEEN SUMMONED

!addswitchmods

[native dragon]

If you have a modified Nintendo Switch running custom firmware, there are some limited options for you to use mods.

Option 1:

1. Install Ubuntu
2. Get 1.5.4 Stardew Valley via DepotDownloader.
3. Follow the this guide.
4. Install SMAPI
5. Run it via mono StardewModdingAPI
6. You can use most 1.5.4 mods, but some won't work (such as Custom Music)
   Option 2
7. Place XNB mods in sdmc:/atmosphere/contents/0100E65002BB8000/romfs/Content/, as if this was your game's content folder (as in .../romfs/Content/Characters/Caroline.xnb)
8. This limits you to XNB mods and outside of simple retextures will largely break by 1.6. See here for details.
   Option 3
   Basically the same as Option 2, but with a mod manager for easier management.
9. Install iridium https://github.com/AnotherPillow/Iridium, instructions in the README.
10. Place your XNB mods in sdmc:/switch/Iridium/Mods/[MOD NAME]/ as if this folder was the Content folder of the game.
11. Same restrictions and issues as Option 2, but you can turn mods off and on and know what mods are controlling which files.

To use this command, type !addswitchmods.

[raw shore]

now how hard is it to write your own code T_T

[neat plaza]

it's feasible

though you could just do the linux route, since you wouldn't have 1.6 yet anyway

[raw shore]

alternatively. would it be wiser to do so when 1.6 comes out? or get started now and then keep going when 1.6 comes out? im assuming going through and changing every he/she and farmboy/farmgirl -> farmer shouldn't be... too difficult...????

dag nabbit 😔

[neat plaza]

it wouldn't be that difficult, but would have to be manual (since some NPCs refer to others)

OH ITS A CONTENT PATCHER MOD

very feasible to convert to xnb then

[raw shore]

!!!!!!!

how do i do this.. please bless me with youe ways oh pillow (switch modder) 😭

i dont mind playing sdv 1.5 on my switch if it means being gendered correctly

[neat plaza]

do you have the pc version of the game too or just the switch version

[raw shore]

i have both versions :-)

my switch is modded already and i play modded stardew also *on my pc 🙏

[neat plaza]

!unpack - make sure to do xnbcli (i think it can repack), switch to the 1.5.6 branch first, or just use the switch's romfs

[native dragon]

See how to unpack XNB files in order to edit the assets inside!

To use this command, type !unpack.

[raw shore]

thank you!!! im going to look into this !!!

you might have saved me thank you so much

[neat plaza]

and then you can open the jsons of the gender neutrality mod, and modify the keys under "Entries" in the file it specifies in "Target", then xnbcli should be able to repack but if not, https://lybell-art.github.io/xnb-js/ set to legacy 1.5 should work

[native dragon]

Content Patcher (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1915) is a mod which loads content packs to change the game's images and data without replacing XNB files. If you want to make mods using Content Patcher, start at https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Content_Patcher.

To use this command, type !cp.

[raw shore]

okay thank you very much! when i have the time im going to give this a go and read up on it in the meantime, i really appreciate all this info thank you!

[neat plaza]

alr

[hard bone]

here https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4745

[lean star]

as expected, you downloaded the CP version, which is not HD 'cause content ptatcher can't handle those

everything is working as it should, though probably not as desired

[hard bone]

should i try it with the non cp version?

[lean star]

do that

[hard bone]

i tried and now it wont work, the portraits are back to as it is like in the original

[restive cypress]

You are going to need to download Portraiture and use the middle file option in the main files tab to get the portraits working (circled in attached image). Here's a step by step process:

1. Download & unzip Portraiture https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/999
2. Download the circled DCBurger Portraits file and unzip it
3. Drag the unzipped DCBurger Portraits file, that should be titled 'Portraits', inside of the Portraiture file
4. (Optional) Download and unzip the Outfit Disable mod into your mods folder https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/23346 - this will let you disable the winter portraits for the vanilla characters as currently DC Burger Portraits isn't updated to include 1.6's new portraits
5. Load up your save and when talking to a villager press 'P' on your keyboard to change the Portrait style to the DCBurger Style

[lean star]

and honestly, I'm certain you also downloaded this version ('cause that's where that harvey you posted is from)

[torn pawn]

i didn't, i create new game with 19 cabins, so 19 players can connect to my game or no?

my game build is 1.6.8

[inland oyster]

You need to build cabins for each player

You can build them in Robin's

Re-enable it

Remove the mod

Play your day until you sleep so you save for the night

Then re-download the mod

[sleek quarry]

okay

[oak forum]

You can temp disable it from loading by outting a period in front of the folder name as well

So .customrousesblahblah

Whatever that folder is called

Or if you have stardrop unchecking it

There's a known issue with custom spouse rooms that THE DAY you propose to an additional spouse the farmhouse will crash you

The only workaround is to temporarily remove the custom spouse rooms mod

Propose

Sleep/save

Re-add the mod back

[sudden summit]

stranded on GI seems to just have that bug if you check the mod page, there are plenty of comments and bug reports about it, you may be able to fix it if you redownload the mod but otherwise youre going to have to wait for the mod author to fix it

[mossy fossil]

I tried searching on internet for a mod called stranded on ginger island but couldn't find anything. Can you send a link for the website you downloaded this mod from?

[sour thicket]

Its on nexus mods

[sudden summit]

its actually called start in ginger island on nexus

[sour thicket]

Also Im not seeing any posts about the quest not triggering, except mine. and its not listed in the bug section

[wicked moth]

idk if offer still stands but yes please!

[sour thicket]

I dont see any other posts except for mine. Which is from today. (Im hillysinger on nexus) and I dont see it listed in the bugs section either

[sudden summit]

second page

also forgive me if i seem snippy im not trying to be FKJDSHJSK im multitasking so my responses are short

your survivalistic error also seems to be common, the mod author said he'd fix it but that was in april so i am not sure how to help you there either KJDHSJK somebody else might know more

[mossy fossil]

@sour thicket As for the survivalistic error I didn't see anyone w the same problem as you so try reinstalling the mod then if it doesn't work come her.

[mossy fossil]

How is it common?

I can't find it anywhere

I know I am blind but am I really that blind?

[mossy fossil]

Also she is using the rebooted version not the normal version which was created in May.

You might be checking the OG mod?

[sudden summit]

DSJKHSDJK no, i had to go looking, the author of rebooted commented on the original survivalistic page saying he'd made the rebooted version, somebody responded saying theyd had this error using the rebooted version, the author said he'd fix it

[mossy fossil]

Not the one she is using

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/23617?tab=description

[sour thicket]

Ill try redownloading. Although I downloaded today

[mossy fossil]

If it doesn't work send the file here and I will fix it for you. The problem is simple.

[sudden summit]

im not sure what to tell you because this is the comment on nexus by the author, he links the github version and not the nexus one but its the same mod updated on similar dates, he may have just uploaded it on nexus later than github

regardless its an error people have gotten before

[mossy fossil]

oh, well in that case it can still be fixed easily (hopefully)

[oak forum]

We can't have people sending us mods to edit as that's mod piracy

[mossy fossil]

Oh

didn't know that

But isn't it ok if it's for personal use?

[dire fractal]

Sure thing, I'll do my best 🙂

[dire fractal]

Where are you getting stuck with the process?

[oak forum]

If someone wants to edit a mod themselves to use THEMSELF it's fine

If you have them send you a file. Edit it and send it back its redistribution

[mossy fossil]

Got it

[oak forum]

Yup ^_^

[mossy fossil]

Thanks for telling me!

[oak forum]

You can teach them probably in #making-mods-general or recommend they report to the actual author

[mossy fossil]

I could have gotten in trouble

[oak forum]

They should really be reporting to the author though if it's an error ya know ^_^

[oak forum]

Yea didn't want ya to get bonked!

[mossy fossil]

I will just teach them in DMs

[wicked moth]

i would get stardrop open but then ciuldnt figure out where to go from there., the yt tutorial was different than how my pc is , if that makes sense?

[dire fractal]

Do you have a link for the yt vid?

[wicked moth]

its having me stopped bc it's unable to locate smapi, im pretty sure!

do u want me to send a ss?

[dire fractal]

Yeah, whichever works, just so I have a point of reference

[wicked moth]

here u go!

[dire fractal]

Gotcha, let me boot up my pc

[wicked moth]

thank u smmm'

[dire fractal]

OK, can you go into view - settings and ss the dialogue that pops up

And have you installed SMAPI prior to this?

[wicked moth]

i have had it downloaded, yes

[dire fractal]

And you ran the installer for it?

SMAPI has to be installed and then usually Stardrop will autodetect the file paths

[dire fractal]

Not to worry if you haven't we can do that too

[wicked moth]

for smapi? Ive used it before, i have a lot of mods already downloadedd

[dire fractal]

And it's definitely still installed

[wicked moth]

yes!

[dire fractal]

If it is then find where you've installed it, for instance mine is in my game's root folder

but wherever you happen to have installed it, copy the file path from that folder into the SMAPI path box

[wicked moth]

it's in my stardew folder!

[dire fractal]

Ok so just copy that file path into the top dialogue

[wicked moth]

and where do i put it after i copy? what's the top dialogueee?

[dire fractal]

The one that says SMAPI path

[sour thicket]

I played 1 day and havent gotten that error. However now im getting a error where smapi is looking for a save file that I think I have deleted. Is there a fix for this?

By "a fix for this" do you mean for the error, or restoring the deleted file?

[dire fractal]

stardrop auto detected all my folders but once you paste into the dialogue, make sure to press the green tick at the bottom and then try restarting the mod manager

[sour thicket]

For the error.

IT was a old save that I think was not being used anymore

[wicked moth]

should i copy the mod folder path as well for the other things it is asking for?

[dire fractal]

No try restarting it first to see if it detected them automatically

if not then yes, go ahead and copy those file paths in too

[wicked moth]

:')

[mossy fossil]

Did you uninstall it from the game or file explorer?

[sour thicket]

From the game

[dire fractal]

you've copied too much, the file path is only up to the folder that the file is located in

so remove the last section

[mossy fossil]

Lemme look into that

One sec

[dire fractal]

What you're essentially doing is saying hey, stardrop, the files you want are in this folder

[wicked moth]

omggg i think it worked!

is there anything else i should do/know about stardrop ???? like i know it's a mod manager but is mod downloading still all the same?

[sour thicket]

Now im not getting the error after restarting smapi. I dont understand smapi most of the time lol

[dire fractal]

Yeah so, if you want to make life a little easier you can associate your nexus account with it, so when you're downloading stuff you can use the 'download with mod manager button' and it will automatically pull any downloaded mods into stardrop for you

[mossy fossil]

If it's fixed don't ask questions.

[slow roost]

Yo anyone know how to get mods working right in vortex??

[mossy fossil]

Just accept it gratefully.

[dire fractal]

Otherwise the only difference is to download manually and then you can drag all your zip files into stardrop and do it that way

[mossy fossil]

Don't use vortex

It sucks

[slow roost]

It says “something mod don’t work “ I have the right mods download 😭

[slow roost]

It does?…

[mossy fossil]

Has lots of problems

[slow roost]

Do I just use curse forge then?

[sudden summit]

please absolutely do not do that

[dire fractal]

my sprite is showing up as a portrait of a character for some reason, anyone know any common causes?

[sudden summit]

!vortex

[native dragon]

Vortex isn't recommended for Stardew Valley.

It's hard to troubleshoot and often causes issues like SMAPI/mods not being installed or updated correctly, files mysteriously disappearing, crashes, etc. Volunteers here often can't help with Vortex issues.

Some options:

• Install mods directly (which is easy and safe in Stardew Valley!).
• Or use Stardrop, a mod manager specifically designed for Stardew Valley.
• Or get help with Vortex in the Nexus Discord or Vortex support forums.

(See also the Nexus App feedback thread, if you want to help Nexus avoid the same issues in their upcoming replacement for Vortex.)

To use this command, type !vortex.

[mossy fossil]

Download mods manually (Recommended) or use Stardrop.

[wicked moth]

how do i connect? :0

[dire fractal]

specifically robin

[slow roost]

Cause I used vortex cause it has a lot of mods more then curse

[dire fractal]

Yeah, heavy on the don't use vortex. If you scroll back the last handful of messages @wicked moth and I just went through setting up stardrop which is a mod manager specfically made for stardew

[slow roost]

Ok 👍

[dire fractal]

Head back into your settings and scroll down a little, there should be a button that says nexus association or something along those lines

[slow roost]

Ok ima go download rn hold on

[mossy fossil]

First of all if this is your sprites ask in #making-mods-general

[dire fractal]

nono not my sprite in that way

[mossy fossil]

If it's another mod's sprite tell us which mod is it from and give log.

[wicked moth]

thank u sm for taking ur time to help!! such an easy fixx

[dire fractal]

like the sprites that im using are instead using the respective portrait im not using sprite mods only ohodavi

[dire fractal]

With stardrop too, upon launch it should show you which mods have new versions available but you can always manually check under the tools menu where it has check for mod updates, check for stardrop updates and also check for smapi updates

[mossy fossil]

I don't want to be rude but I didn't understand what you just said.

Can you explain more

[dire fractal]

hold on ill just send an image gimme a sec

[dire fractal]

You're totally welcome, it's awkward when things don't work as expected or laid out in the documentation but thankfully stardrop is one of the easier mod managers to deal with

idk how this even happens tbf

unless ohodavi is outdated and the portrait xnbs also contain sprite textures

Log Info: SMAPI 4.0.8 with SDV 1.6.8 build 24119 on Microsoft Windows 10 Pro, with 8 C# mods and 6 content packs.
Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[brisk lance]

If you are using a mod that is in .xnb format, it is definitely outdated and probably breaking things.

[native dragon]

XNB mods often break the game and are not recommended. See Modding:Using XNB mods for more info (and a list of Content Patcher alternatives), and you can reset your content files to fix problems caused by XNB mods.

For mod creators, see Modding:Editing XNB mods for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).

To use this command, type !xnbzola.

[dire fractal]

okay ill try it with non xnb

[slow roost]

Oh?…

[dire fractal]

Please just read what I'm saying instead of squirrel braining and doing whatever

[slow roost]

Ok…

[dire fractal]

Look for where SMAPI is installed, it is a modding tool not a mod, so it will not be in the mods folder

[slow roost]

... how doi acces that area though...

[oak forum]

Okay I'll step in I have this

Polite where are you at. I can help you

[slow roost]

swampi interal or what ever its called?

[lean star]

hey there, just letting you know that the issue was fixed in Better Watering Can and Hoe 2.2.0
the issue, version 2.1.0 was calling for the left click action on right click

[oak forum]

Okay so we need a log. If you go to pins there are videos that walk you through how to do it

Can you find the pinned messages in this channel?

[slow roost]

logs for what?.

[oak forum]

!log

[native dragon]

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.

[oak forum]

[native dragon]

Log Info: SMAPI 4.0.8 with SDV 1.6.8 build 24119 on Microsoft Windows 10 Education, with 5 C# mods and 1 content packs.

[slow roost]

heh????

[oak forum]

[slow roost]

(btw idk why im on window 10 edc just a free ccode i found for my pc..)

[oak forum]

Okay let me read the messages to see what your problem is and then I'll look at your log okay?

[slow roost]

da hell is a 5 c#

[modern python]

C# is a category of mod

[brisk lance]

The game is written in C# and some mods are too.

[modern python]

(you dont need to worry about it)

[slow roost]

oh

[oak forum]

So I think you just have some old mods loaded

[slow roost]

i download the latest??...

[oak forum]

I'm going to check some things, can you wait for a minute or two?

[slow roost]

yea i can

[oak forum]

No no smapi is good and so is the game

But I think you don't need the conditions one it is mad about but I have to check

[narrow fiber]

Is there any key or something to help when your screen goes black? I hit start on the moon jellies event and i’ve got a black screen and ocean audio, cursor moves fine, but nothing else. Also no no errors currently showing in Smapi window

[slow roost]

i found latest verion of uh Expanded Preconditions Utility

[lean star]

!xnb2cp you can convert the files that were updated for 1.6 with this tool

[native dragon]

If you'd like to convert an XNB mod to Content Patcher, there are two utilities you can use:

• Content Pack Builder by holythesea is a step-by-step Content Patcher mod creator which can be used with either existing XNB mods or PNG assets.
• XNB2CP by anotherpillow is an open-source, web-based converter to unpack an XNB mod and repackage it as a content pack.

You can convert any mod for personal use, but you should check the mod permissions before publishing your conversions.

To use this command, type !xnb2cp.

[lean star]

well, it won't convert them, but it will write a CP mod for those files

[oak forum]

Okay can you tell me what you are downloading that and json assets for?

[slow roost]

it was for a mod hold on

let me go find what that mod was

[oak forum]

Do you remember which one?

I'm worried it might be too old to use

[slow roost]

Producer Framework?

idk which one but it was a thing of making wine and beer in minutes

[dire fractal]

tysm I was about to do this shit manually lmfao

[lean star]

if you know what you do, that can be quicker

[oak forum]

Hmm can you find the wine mod?

I was to see how old it is

[slow roost]

ye let eme go find it

[oak forum]

Semisu is producer framework still being used?

[lean star]

sure, but yams has no mod using it as of now

[oak forum]

God I'm rusty. I'm playing the game again 😅 I'll get back into the groove

[oak forum]

Okay but there's potential they have it for an updated mod they just haven't downloaded yet

[lean star]

[oak forum]

Not like a you got it for ppja which is dead dead

Ohhhh perf

[ornate nebula]

Oh that’s great to know, thank you so much!

[narrow fiber]

OK, just decided top restart game instead of wait on the black screen with ocean sound forever, but I noticed in my smapi log a new mod didn't load right? The Ridgeview CP Seasonal Outfits didn't load right it seems, any input on what I should change to make it load correctly?

[lean star]

You have to choose the one in optional files

[slow roost]

[slow roost]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6529?tab=files

[oak forum]

A LOT of people accidently download the wrong one

[slow roost]

Dafuck?!

How do I resolve this

[oak forum]

Let's not use vortex

Install manually

[slow roost]

…now I got 3 of them

With the power sign

How I remove the other two

The v1.0.1

[oak forum]

I don't know vortex and we don't recommend it so let's do manual

Do you know how to find your game files?

[slow roost]

I am

[slow roost]

Nope

Should we do a voice call for this?…. I’m confused

[oak forum]

Oh let's please not say that 😅

[slow roost]

My bad

[oak forum]

Nah we can totally do this through chat

Let's open up a file explorer

[slow roost]

Ok what vc I join?

[oak forum]

Could you maybe delete that one message so other people don't have to read it?

[slow roost]

Ok

[oak forum]

Oh no I'm not going to VC

Here is fine

[slow roost]

Ok👌🏼

I’m in file explorer

I’m in game folder

[oak forum]

Perfect, go to Mods

[slow roost]

[oak forum]

Then send me a screenshot

!screenshot

[native dragon]

Can you take a screenshot of the issue and post it here? (See https://www.take-a-screenshot.org/ for help. You can paste or drop the screenshot directly into Discord to send it.)

To use this command, type !screenshot.

[oak forum]

Delete the expandedpre folder

[slow roost]

Ok?

I did

[oak forum]

Ugh I'm nervous your vortex has some silly files wherever it saves it

Hopefully we can clean install it

[median harbor]

Hey guys! Quick question - is there a mod to fix the edge tiles that don't get hit with the recolour mods?

[oak forum]

#modded-stardew for mod requests

[median harbor]

[oak forum]

I have the 2.0 version

[oak forum]

Delete them ALL

[slow roost]

Oh

[oak forum]

Yea we don't know what vortex has done

[narrow fiber]

My main confusiuon here is that it mentions Free Love, which is a mod I don't have.

"Ignored Ridgeside Village Seasonal Outfits > Include Ridgeside Dialogue Files (from Data/DialogueChanges/Zayne.json) > Zayne Spirit's Eve Dialogue Change (Free Love back-up) Y1: the When field is invalid: invalid input arguments (Zayne) for Relationship token"

[oak forum]

And I don't trust it

[slow roost]

Ok deleted

[oak forum]

Perfect

So now start from scratch

Go to nexus > the mod > files > optional files > manual download button

[slow roost]

I did

Says the same problems still ?…

I have 14 download when I have 11 I think

Ye 11
