How do I make my child's name display normally using polyamorysweet? My son keeps being called Erik(Sam) instead of just Erik 💀

[lean star]

Show Parent Names:
Show parent's name after child's name in the lists. Default true;

[grim socket]

so so i start here?

[hasty flume]

Yep. Inside each zip should be a collection of saves, depending on how many files you actually have

Pick one from a date before the childtonpc features kicked in

[grim socket]

okay

[hasty flume]

That 7/2 one is probably the most promising

[grim socket]

yea luckily i played thru an entire season just today

[hasty flume]

So open that one up

[hasty flume]

Ok, so we want to extract the contents of this folder into your saves folder. Do you know where your saves are?

It's the same root folder as your smapi logs

[grim socket]

is it this one?

[hasty flume]

No

The saves are in a completely different place

!saves

[native dragon]

Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.

To use this command, type !saves.

[grim socket]

oh! okay okay

i think i have it

[hasty flume]

Send a screenshot to confirm?

[hasty flume]

That's it!

[grim socket]

okay cool!

[hasty flume]

Enter that saves folder, delete all the files with the same names as the one in this screenshot, then extract the contents of the save backup folder into your saves folder

There will probably be another sub-folder with the name of your farm if im remembering correctly. That's where you want to be putting the backup files

[grim socket]

okie gimme a sec 🥺

[hasty flume]

I believe in you

[grim socket]

okay i think i got it! im ganna open the game rq 🥺

IT WORKED!!!

omg megan i owe u my life and entire save file 😭

[hasty flume]

Np! Now temporarily delete childtonpc before you forget

[grim socket]

yep! already did! ty so much again

[hasty flume]

Hopefully you didn't get booted too far back in time with a save from 2 days ago

[grim socket]

its a significant change im ngl, but its okay since im too invested in the family immersion of the save LMAO

[hasty flume]

As long as you're happy then!

Hello!! I don't if anyone can help me. i have time playing with mods, this is my fourth farm that I play with mods in multiplayer and something like this has never happened to me. At a completely random moment the game crashes, time passes, my girlfriend can still move. I can write in the chat but I can't move the character or go to exit the game, the only thing I can do is close the game losing the progress of the day. I don't know what could be happening since I haven't done anything strange other times I've played with mods. Any possible help is appreciated. 🙂 Oh and I add that I don't get any errors in the smapi commands tab. I accessed the errors in the folder but only that appears and not an error code. Please help.

girlfriend

at 17:49:45 apears the error

but i dont know how to solve

chest anywhere is the only mod that i dont update

[jagged marsh]

Ok - I'm trying to figure it out, but this isn't my specialty - Whose hosting? Who gets what issues when it acts up?

Are you doing anything in particular when it breaks?

[glossy arch]

i dont that mod is the problem

smapi starts god

with any problem

only stars

i host

[jagged marsh]

So - it keeps working on your girlfriend's side, but as host, you lose the ability to move or do anything other then chat?

[glossy arch]

starts without red errors

[glossy arch]

Yes

i only can chat

and starts a sound

[jagged marsh]

Hmm - In the screenshot you showed me it was 2 AM - does it just keep going u ntil the day is ended?

[glossy arch]

like something bouncing

the game crush at 16

and the time continous

my girlfirend can still playing

normaly

[jagged marsh]

Is the game crashing at the same time for you, in game?

[glossy arch]

nop

random crash

i dont know what to do

im craying

😩

[jagged marsh]

Hmm. I didn't see anything in the log that would indicate issues, and I'm unfortunately unfamiliar with most of the mods you're using. Someone else might have a better idea

For now I'd say try again, the moment it freezes, note down what you and the girlfriend were doing

[hasty flume]

The error is related to dsv, but I don't see how dsv could cause a character to freeze

[glossy arch]

Could it be that the mod for sharing eliminated mobs for adventurers' tasks is causing problems?

[hasty flume]

I'm honestly not sure. I don't see any errors related to that one. I only see the errors for dsv core

[glossy arch]

I still haven't closed the game

[hasty flume]

It also looks like both of you were inputting random console commands. Why did you start doing that?

[glossy arch]

trying to do something fjajajja

but I did it because when the error appears, it says to try some command

that's the moment the game freezes

[hasty flume]

When you typed in the wrong help command?

[glossy arch]

i dont typed

I didn't write the first help command{

that's the strange thing

[hasty flume]

Ok, so has this freeze only happened once so far or has it happened multiple times?

[limpid stag]

Ty!!

[glossy arch]

i start a few days ago

but is random

i can play 2 gameday

[hasty flume]

So it's happened more than once?

[glossy arch]

and crush

or

4 gameday and crush

today 2 times

[hasty flume]

I just want to know if the freeze has happened more than once

[glossy arch]

yesterdey another time

more than once

[hasty flume]

Ok

[glossy arch]

i know that i close the game

play the game

and crush again

The problem is that I don't know what the error is, so the only thing I can do is remove a mod and wait for it to freeze again because I don't get any errors in smapi.

[hasty flume]

Ok, so what I'm gonna get you to do is restart the game with your girlfriend. If it freezes again, close out and send new logs immediately

[glossy arch]

okay

[hasty flume]

There's too much clutter from you guys messing with console commands in the first log for me to isolate anything. A fresh log with none of that happening will help

The only console commands I would recommend trying is debug canmove

[glossy arch]

okay i will start the game and when it happens i send again

[hasty flume]

Other than that, just close out when you hit the freeze again

[jagged marsh]

And the only other thing that comes to mind - As soon as it freezes and you go to close out - Make a note of what you and your girlfriend were doing

[glossy arch]

i will enter the farm and i go to the same place

my girlfriend was in home

when crush

[hasty flume]

But if she was interacting with anything or anything like that we'd like to know that

[glossy arch]

she was sleeping

to restore energy

[hasty flume]

That would count as interacting with something

[glossy arch]

hello

you should double check whether Mods/UIInfoSuite2/manifest.json exists

[rancid palm]

what do you mean?

im new to this im sorry lol

[glossy arch]

@hasty flume 🙂

[cold nimbus]

It looks like it has an issue specifically with the i18n folder. Could be that the manifest is at the wrong level relative to it

[spark pivot]

are you using a mod manager or installing mods manually?

[rancid palm]

vortex

i was told to use that

[eternal ravine]

We don't recommend vortex at all

[hasty flume]

Ok, so with the new log, the last thing to fire is the agenda mod. The second log also has a mismatched version warning despite the version numbers being the same, which is odd. I'd try removing the agenda mod, see if that helps

[rancid palm]

oh

[tepid hawk]

Stardrop is the recommended mod manager for Stardew

[eternal ravine]

It has a tendency of messing up with sdv mods.

So yeah if you want to use a mod manager, stardrop is the way to go

[rancid palm]

so can i use the rest of my mods that are working on vortex and just download that one off stardrop? or no

[spark pivot]

oh if its vortex maybe uiinfosuite2 is wrong version too

https://github.com/Annosz/UIInfoSuite2/releases

[tepid hawk]

You would want to fully swap to Stardrop or do it all by hand

[rancid palm]

i just took like 2 hours looking at and downloading mods

[hasty flume]

Second log also has that dsv core error again, so I'd also try having your girlfriend reinstall that one just in case

[glossy arch]

how i fix that?

[glossy arch]

I'll try that but can I write to you again in case they don't work?

[hasty flume]

If it doesn't work, you can come back here

[hasty flume]

I said what to do in the message. Your girlfriend needs to reinstall dsv core just in case it's a bad install

[glossy arch]

ohh okay okay thanks

[rancid palm]

i fixed it

ive been trying to play stardew for 2 days now lol, thank you people for the help

i do what yo say

also reinstall dv core

[hasty flume]

Did you add in another mod? Bc I told you to delete one and you have the same number, and now you have errors for fishing info overlays which you didn't have before

[glossy arch]

yes I added that mod, I had taken it out thinking that it was freezing because of the error that appears but when I saw that it was not because of that mod I added it again

is not about visible fish?

because he cant spawn all?

[hasty flume]

I don't know what you mean by that

[hasty flume]

I've never heard of that happening with visible fish

[glossy arch]

I have used it before and it didn't happen but I don't know what else it could be when trying to understand the log

[hasty flume]

Have you tried the debug canmove command when you freeze yet?

[glossy arch]

nop

[hasty flume]

Try that. If that doesn't work I'm out of ideas

[glossy arch]

okay thank you

[vague gate]

is this the wallet section for overgrown flowery interface?? i cant find the magnifying glass that i just got (i feel like i accidentally trashed it...)

[gaunt gust]

No

That is a 1.6 thing

[vague gate]

oohhh i see

[gaunt gust]

The magnifying glass is now in the new powers tab

[vague gate]

power tab?

[gaunt gust]

Yeah

[vague gate]

where is that located?

[gaunt gust]

Look at the top of that menu, see the tabs?

One is known as the powers tab

[vague gate]

ooohhhhh

[modest jungle]

Hi im trying to get mods installed on here I'm using windows
Does anyone have any advice?
I have smapi installed and everything done however the stardew api folder is nowhere to be found

[hasty flume]

!gs

[native dragon]

If you would like a guide to setting up mods for Stardew Valley, check out the getting started guide! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide

To use this command, type !gs.

[hasty flume]

that guide should have some helpful references as to where things should be

[modest jungle]

Alright thank you!

[hasty flume]

if you still need help, come back and let us know where you got lost!

[modest jungle]

So when I create the file for stardew api, it'll look like the my path code
Do I copy that into the smapi window and click 2 to create a path or click 1 to stay with steam

[hasty flume]

if your game is installed in the default location, just hit 1

you only need to bother with a secondary path if youve installed it in a different drive

[modest jungle]

I'm reading the instructions and I've watched a lot of stuff on it my only issue is I do everything right from what I've seen and the api extension isn't found maybe I have to create it but otherwise that's my main issue

[hasty flume]

you shouldnt have to create anything yourself with smapi

im honestly not sure what youre talking about actually

can you point out in the guide which step you're getting stuck on?

[modest jungle]

I relooked at everything, and the part I'm stuck on is how to put the mods into smapi

[hasty flume]

ok so smapi should have created a mods folder inside your stardew game folder

[modest jungle]

Yes I have that

[hasty flume]

you just download mods and extract them into that folder

thats it

then you launch the game with smapi and the mods will be there

[modest jungle]

Okay thank you

[modest jungle]

So I've gotten the mods and everything done how do I launch from here
I'm trying and everything I've seen and heard says to launch through the stardew api and not steam

[teal copper]

Hi, my girlfriend is Froggy who is talking above me. They did the same process on my computer, and can’t open it. I can’t even open it through steam.

[cold nimbus]

In the folder where the Mods folder is located, look for an executable called StardewModdingAPI.exe and run it

[teal copper]

Yeah that’s what we are doing it’s not doing anything

[cold nimbus]

Does a terminal window open? Should look like a black window with some text

[modest jungle]

No one starts to flash on my end but immediately disappears

[teal copper]

I get nothing on mine

Are you able to get to the Roaming/StardewValley folder?

[teal copper]

No

[mossy fossil]

@teal copper Which one did you upload?

[modest jungle]

I didnt get any of those

[teal copper]

Me either

Found roaming on mine

[cold nimbus]

Does it have a stardew folder in it at all?

[teal copper]

It has my farms

[cold nimbus]

But no ErrorLogs folder?

[teal copper]

No

[mossy fossil]

@modest jungle Did you launch smapi or Stardew Valley?

[modest jungle]

Smapi

[mossy fossil]

do you have a screen rec on your pc?

[mossy fossil]

Is that on desktop?

or game files?

[modest jungle]

desktop

[mossy fossil]

this is wrong

it should be in the same folder as Stardew Valley.exe

[mossy fossil]

Like how I have it here

[cold nimbus]

Was the smapi executable originally inside that folder? Or did it spawn directly on your desktop when you installed it?

[mossy fossil]

Yes, you should put it there

Then run it

[modest jungle]

No I moved it onto desktop it stayed in my folder i thought

[cold nimbus]

You'll want to put it back in there. If you want to access it from desktop, you should make a shortcut

[mossy fossil]

What do you mean?

[mossy fossil]

is there a SMAPI application here?

[modest jungle]

I dragged the icon onto my desktop and i thought that it would remain in file with the icon on desktop

[hasty flume]

its a shortcut guys

[mossy fossil]

oh

[hasty flume]

dragging an application onto the desktop automatically creates a shortcut

[mossy fossil]

That doesn't look like a shortcut.

[mossy fossil]

Not true

I just did it

It moved it

[teal copper]

How do I put it back

[mossy fossil]

didn't make a shortcut

[teal copper]

Its same on my end too

[hasty flume]

onto the desktop?

[naive drum]

Doesn't have the shortcut icon and I've moved .exe files to the desktop before. Just drag it back

[cold nimbus]

Plus there's no smapi executable in their video of their game folder

[teal copper]

Yeah its on my desktop screen as well

[mossy fossil]

yes

[hasty flume]

i didnt think that was a real place files could be without still existing in your folders somewhere

[teal copper]

How do I put it back in the file folder...or do I just leave it alone sorry trying to catch up on everything accidentally moved stuff just fixed it

[hasty flume]

well now dont i look stupid

[naive drum]

Drag it back
OR right click, click cut, and then go to your stardew folder and control + v
OR run installer again

[cold nimbus]

Desktop's a valid file location same as any other file directory

Though it's not one I'd recommend for anything, gets cluttered too quickly

[naive drum]

Desktop is a real folder. Its file system location is in the Users folder

[teal copper]

Okay fixed it

[naive drum]

Theres a Desktop folder for each user account on the computer

Yay, stray! Try running it now

[hasty flume]

Thank you!!

[teal copper]

You guys are all awesome, one thing I love about the stardew valley server.

[naive drum]

(General computer use tip: don't move .exe files alone without the other files they came with! They need to know where those files are relative to hem)

[teal copper]

Got it

[modest jungle]

If I could share chocolate chip cookies I'd be sending some to everyone who helped right now

[teal copper]

Hi I apologize..everything is running except mods arent working themselves are we supposed to enable them ourselves? I am checking the description on one specific mod that I want to work right now but it is asking for a config.json file which I can't find.

[naive drum]

Mids make the config.jso themselves on game laubcu

Are they a. In the mids folder smapi made and b. Taken out of the zip files?

Also c. Do you have all their dependencies?

[teal copper]

What does that mean, and I know my name is showing in photo

[compact verge]

And d. Did you launch the game through SMAPI?

[naive drum]

Oh yeah that too

[teal copper]

I launched it through the api thing you showed us

Runs and everything just no mods

[naive drum]

Also the only mod you have that can show up visibly is daisynilos recolour

Why di you have a mods folder inside your mods folder?

[naive drum]

Instead, when the game is ran with mods, c9nfigurable mods without config.jsons make config.jsonw

[teal copper]

I am not sure what you mean

[cold nimbus]

Generating the config file is part of the mod's code, so it doesn't get created until the game is launched at least once with the mod installed since that's what triggers that code

[naive drum]

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods
Your mods are supposed to go there
They're somewhere that ends with Mods/Mods 9nstead

[teal copper]

I dont know how to fix that

Do I pull the, out of the mods folder\

[cold nimbus]

That part isn't an issue, you can put mods in subfolders. I do it the same way to keep my mods separated from the smapi packaged mods

But you do need to unzip those folders, or SMAPI can't find them

[teal copper]

Okay ill unzip them

Let me try opening it again, and seeing if the daisy config pops up into my files after

[naive drum]

Drag that modd folder highlighted in the screenshot to the Stardew folder

(It looked like you had kept the zips after unzipping, unless I read it wrong on my phone)

[teal copper]

yes

[naive drum]

Oh, yeh, it can be done intentionally for mods management, true

[teal copper]

Just tested it...and it's working. I also paid attention to when it loads the code so now I know how to fix it.

Thank you guys so much again, truly.

For easier mod config editing, you can install Geneic Mod Config Menu to let you edit things in game! It adds a gear icon to the main menu and you can configure most configurable mods through it, including ALL content patcher mods

Yeah, I figured, I've seen plenty of scams that use that feature, so I wasn't really surprised, lol

Okay, I've got SMAPI to run now, had to follow the manual install instructions for some reason...

[naive drum]

Congrats! Now you just unzip mods and put them into the Mods folder SMAPI has made in your game fodler

[teal copper]

If you play in multiplayer will both players be able to use their own mods

[naive drum]

!mpmods

[native dragon]

You can mod your multiplayer games, but to avoid any hiccups, all players' mod lists need to match. If players have too many mismatched mods, you will experience bugs in your game - even if the mods were working fine earlier, there is no guarantee that they will stay that way, and strange things may start occurring.

There are a few exceptions to this - cosmetic mods usually work fine with no glitches, and some C# mods work as well. The main mod page often includes information on whether or not they work in multiplayer. However, in general, your mod lists should match exactly.

See the wiki page for more details on how mods work in multiplayer!

Multiplayer Mod Checker is an easy way to determine if host/farmhand mods match.

To use this command, type !mpmods.

Okay so, my mods for SDV are just crashing my game and not letting it start up in general, when I try to run it on my pc, everything is fine...till I click the load button or new button, then my screen freezes and I can’t play, what do I do?

[modest grail]

The Stardew Realty mod does have some previously reported issues with path errors for the content packs for the expansions on Linux and Mac

Mod author intended to fix it in the latest update but something may have been missed, or if you overwrote the mod files with the update instead of deleting the old mod files first, the fix may not have applied or changed something on Win11

Using these instructions from the mod page may also help verify that the expansions are installed correctly:
To see what the packs you have installed, in the SMAPI console window enter 'fe_packs'[enter].

[dapper hollow]

I want to ask if we extract the xnb file from the content folder, we can see that in the folder there are festival files such as town_christmas and town_christmas2, what's the difference? and will these two festivals appear? as long as we play one until the next few years, or will only one appear?

[sly elm]

they alternate each year

[misty plaza]

Hi, I'm looking for some help, so I have recently modded my Stardew, and everything has gone fine up until about 10 mins ago when my game stopped responding. so i closed out of it and tried to relaunch it, all my mods seem to be working fine and the game starts but it wont come up on screen now, i can hear the music, just can't get the game to show up on screen, any help would be appreciated.. I'm not sure if i need to update something or what..

[barren onyx]

I'm considering installing Canon-Friendly Dialogue Expansion with Life Cycles - Rival Heart Events. I was wondering how well they work together but haven't been able to find much in the way of information. Can anybody here advise on how noticeable the differences are and whether it can be solved simply with load order or leaving out some of Life Cycles' content? Thank you.

[sudden summit]

can you run the game fine vanilla?

[misty plaza]

Right now, nope it refuses to let stardew come up on screen, it launches, i just cant get it to like come on screen anymore

it shows up in the task bar but when i click it it doesnt come up

[sly elm]

I don't think there's anything to be done with load order. dialogues and events added shouldn't conflict unless they modify an existing dialogue. the only thing that could happen is that the lore doesn't fully fit

[misty plaza]

Okay, i found the problem. it was sending the screen to my tablet that was turned off and seems to think that its the primary screen..

[barren onyx]

It's the lore I'm most concerned about, tbh. I should have made that clearer in my initial comment. I'm hoping there might be someone who has played enough of them both to say. Though I know there's so much material that a clear answer may not be possible.

[misty plaza]

Thanks for the help!

[sly elm]

hm since dialogues aren't marked it's hard to know which mod does what when playing with both. You might want to ask your question in #modded-stardew again, this here is the support channel and not many people look in here

[barren onyx]

Thank you for your help, I'll go do that.

[vague gate]

i downloaded the vibral pastoral recolor and the temporary fix. did i do something wrong with downloading it, bc some of tiles are different??

[restive roost]

do you have another recolour in your mod list as well?

[vague gate]

i dont think so... lemme check

[restive roost]

also, do you have sve?

[vague gate]

i dont think i have another recolour in my mod list

[vague gate]

ngl i keep seeing that on some mods, but i have no idea what it is 😅

[restive roost]

it's stardew valley expanded, a mod many people use

so i'm guessing you dont have it

hmmm

[vague gate]

ohhh thats what it means

[restive roost]

i would have suggested downloading the sve fix for vibrant pastoral recolour if so

[vague gate]

okay will do that thank youu!

[restive roost]

but if you don't have the expanded mod installed, you won't need it

wait

can i just check you have both of these mods installed?

[vague gate]

what mods?

[restive roost]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6367 and https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/20698

you will need both for it to work correctly

[vague gate]

yes i have both of that

i picked the eng only ver for the first one

[restive roost]

that should be fine

hmm lemme think

may i see your mod list?

[vague gate]

i just download anything i see thats good 😭

ohhh

okie

[sly elm]

cause that has a mod list in it as well

[vague gate]

noted

[sly elm]

though I see stardew valley expanded in your mod folder already, so maybe installing the fix for SVE 8bitalien linked helps your issue

[restive roost]

i see you have 2 interior recolours (rustic and elegant) and they might be clashing causing the issue with the wizard's home

[spark pivot]

if you want to try a lot of mods you should use stardrop to manage them

[sly elm]

right, another catch :D

[spark pivot]

not all mods are meant to be used together

[restive roost]

but with the outdoor tiles, as Pokky said, you do have stardew expanded installed. download this mod and it should fix it: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/7213

[lean star]

please don't

that is outdate for over 2 years now

[restive roost]

the expanded mod?

[lean star]

i think there are a lot of issues with the VPR mod as of right now

[vague gate]

oh so furniture?

[restive roost]

no, it changes all of the interior floor and wall tiles too

[vague gate]

do i download that too?

[vague gate]

yeah i just like having em thank uu

[lean star]

Stardew Foliage Redone - unofficial 1.6 that's the culprit, this is not just foliage, it's an unofficial update to the full recolour mod

either use Foliage Redone or VPR, but not both

well spotted

wah thanks!!

i got this as skipped for stardrop

(sorry to jump in but stardrop itself is not a mod and shouldnt go into your mods folder SKDJHSDK)

[vague gate]

oooohhh

its like smapi?

[sudden summit]

im not sure i understand the question

[vague gate]

ah its okay sorry ><

so do i just remove it stardrop file and leave it be when i download it?

[lean star]

SMAPI makes stardew run mods, Stardrop manages mods that shall be loaded by SMAPI
totally different things

all they have in common is that they are programs, not mods

[vague gate]

aha i see thanks for explaining

wahh okay so i checked the tiles are now fix yay

[vapid raven]

OMG I KNOW

IM JUST NEW TO WINDOWS 😭

[neat plaza]

To install a mod, just unzip it into the Mods folder in your game folder. Make sure each mod has its own subfolder, without trailing numbers. For example, if you have a PineapplesEverywhere mod, you should have a file structure like this:

[hasty flume]

Dude, don't shout at the volunteers. Pokky wasn't in the other channel

[sly elm]

pull the folder into the Mods folder

[quasi pike]

i dont know how to unzip it INTO something else

[sly elm]

just unzip wherever and drag it over to the Mods folder

[quasi pike]

sorry im just very frustrated

[hasty flume]

When you unzip something it should give you an option to input a location to unzip it to

What exactly this looks like depends on the program you're using to unzip your files

[vapid raven]

Lil like this (Windows 11)

Then this

[sly elm]

I went through your log and forgot everything when I was at the end, so my idea would be to turn on trace and search for the tilesheet that has these items on it to see which mods modify it - or you could make a patch summary for the same thing in game, make use of the new function that got added with the recent content patcher update

[quasi pike]

i hate my life how do i screenshot

[vapid raven]

Oh, I found the issue, it was that EBAGI thing

[neat plaza]

print screen
win + shift + s

[vapid raven]

I like the second way, helps crop lol

[quasi pike]

thank you so mcuh

I cnat type

[vapid raven]

It happens, man

[hasty flume]

Just take a deep breath

It's gonna be ok

[wispy linden]

Just a question; do recolor mods work on mac?

[vapid raven]

Being new to modding can be a frustrating process, but we while we wanna help, gotta not take out the frustrations on us

Recolord do work for mac

Nut ReSahde does not

But*

[hasty flume]

Nut

[vapid raven]

I recommend Nightshade for that

[vapid raven]

[sly elm]

all content patcher and smapi mods should work on windows, mac and Linux

[sly elm]

Squirrel

[wispy linden]

Yeah, I'm trying to download a reshade; at least that's what the mod description says

I tried using nightshade before and; honestly I wasn't a huge fan of it unfortunately it's not for me

[quasi pike]

I JUST REMEMBERED IC ANT SEND PICTURES

sorry orf caps

[hasty flume]

You can in this channel

[quasi pike]

oh thank god

[hasty flume]

Green names can send images here and in #images-and-memes

[quasi pike]

what do i clikc here

why is it so blurry

omd

[sly elm]

because it's not a screenshot but a picture of a monitor

[quasi pike]

[hasty flume]

That's why we get people to send screenshots. Phone pictures of monitors can be difficult to read

[quasi pike]

the screenshot wasnt working for me

[hasty flume]

Looks like you're inside the zip. You want to back out and click on the zip itself to extract, not the contents

[quasi pike]

okay

well i extracted it

hpld on

[wispy linden]

I'm. not sure if I'm misreading (i hope not)

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4688?tab=description but. this is a recolor, not a reshade, right ?

i'm asking because when i go to download it, it's a rar file and I don't have anything to extract it with

[vapid raven]

OOF that is old..

[hasty flume]

That's not a recolor or a reshape that's a secret third thing you probably shouldn't be messing with

[vapid raven]

That's more for like, modders wanting to make a reshade or whatever lol

[wispy linden]

OHHH alright that makes a lot of sense

thank you 🙏

Stardew folder, should look like whats highlighted

But if you changed the Steam LAunch options, it'llopen instead anyways

[quasi pike]

i cant get into the stardew files without me actually opening stardew

[vapid raven]

what?

[quasi pike]

like theres no folder its just the application thing

[hasty flume]

Looks like it's little npcs. Not familiar enough with the mod to say exactly what's happening, but the save error is specifically citing it

[uncut jetty]

pls does anyone know of any mods/way to get a hotkey for auto delete in stardew? i have a mac so the delete button just isnt on my keyboard, and i really like placing a bunch of furniture down when desigining. no auto delete makes it so tedious having to drag each item to the trash can

[sly elm]

you might want to use happy home designer

[uncut jetty]

all i wanna do is design in Peace

i have that !! does it have a function im missing

[hasty flume]

That's more a #modded-stardew question

[uncut jetty]

ah ok good to know ty ty

[visual geode]

Thank you Megan, God of Sheds. I saw that too, but not sure how to address it other than just outright removing LittleNPCs

[sly elm]

it might be that it just doesn't work with multiplayer

[quasi pike]

im just gonna try this tomorrow

bye bye

[hasty flume]

Oh, was that log a multiplayer save? I always miss those if it's not stated

[visual geode]

It was multiplayer, yes. Apologies for not stating that.. I know the mod's description page does state it may/may not work properly in MP, but was hoping to see if there was a fix before writing it off as just 'doesn't work'

[hasty flume]

Unfortunately, the only person able to fix that is probably the mod author. We mostly just identify errors here and tell you what mods to delete

[visual geode]

Understood, I did post in bugs section in Nexusmods, guess we'll see what the author says! Thanks again all

[vapid raven]

I.. Ugh.
You're gonna need to show the process for everything you're doing. Cause if there's no "folder" then you've installed stuff wrong.

[hasty flume]

If the exe is in a folder by itself, they may have moved it or created a shortcut to it in a weird place

[sly elm]

I guessed because it said [Host] a lot

[hasty flume]

I somehow always miss when it says that. I usually skip the startup and go right ro the error. Probably a bad habit

Hi friends. I'm having a brand new issue on my Mac. I'm using Stardrop for mod updates, there's an error coming up in DayUpdate. BUT, I can't put the log into smapi.io because "the request entity is too large." I tried throwing out the old file and restarting the game, trying to quit very early in to make for a smaller file, but that didn't work.

until i couldnt

sorry im being such a pain

And you installed it like you were supposed to?

Anyone?

[hasty flume]

Looks like something to do with farm animals, with cjb cheats being referenced repeatedly. What are your setting related to animals with cjb?

[wheat owl]

I dont' think I have any settings related to animals with cjb

Hmmm, I wonder if Pokemon Ranch is the culprit

I had used it and set up barns and such...

[hasty flume]

Pokemon ranch isn't loading at all

It's listed at the top of the log

[wheat owl]

Yeah, leaving stray stuff hanging around perhaps?

[hasty flume]

I don't think it really works like that, but it's definitely still in your mods folder

Smapi just isn't loading it bc you're missing a dependency

[wheat owl]

Restarting the game to see if there's anything in cjb re: animals that I selected

Loaded the dependency also just in case

[hasty flume]

If no one answers, it's usually because no one knows. Your log doesn't actually list a crash or any errors, it just stops, so it's difficult to even guess what caused a crash

[sly elm]

so this error is one I remember getting a lot when I do mod testing when I don't enable modded animals I have in a save. did you remove an animal mod and still had animals from that mod in a barn or coop or a modded animal building?

[sudden summit]

its an issue with the farm map youre using, i cant tell you how to fix it personally but maybe somebody else knows more

[wheat owl]

Pokky yes, I think that's what happened with Pokemon Ranch

[sly elm]

ah yeah the way to fix that is to sell any animal from that mod before removing the mod

[hasty flume]

I'm not sure if that's the case. If you look at the trace they kept playing long after that warning popped up

[wheat owl]

Hmmmm, I'll try putting the mod back then, and see if I can make all of that work

[hasty flume]

Couldn't hurt to double check the farm map tho

[round sage]

Hiii so uhhh im trying to download Smapi and idk how to fix this

[sudden summit]

its the only thing i can think of SKDHSDJK i did sound too confident there but thats the only interesting thing i see in the logs apart from console commands that were errored

[ancient monolith]

Oh! that makes sense, Thank you!

[hasty flume]

Well first off, please send a screenshot instead of a phone picture of your computer screen. Those are difficult to read and this one doesn't even list the whole error

[round sage]

Yes !!!

[sudden summit]

• big asterisk there do not quote me, megan is super right in that theres really no way to tell and i just made a guess based off your log

[wheat owl]

Heh, looks like Pokemon Ranch is pretty broken after putting it back in. Lots of error items in the barn and cook, chickens with error signs on them, etc. I guess it's safe to say that's my problem. Thank you.

[round sage]

don't minds my name 😔 🙏

[hasty flume]

Looks like you're missing files from your amapi installer

Just re-download smapi

[round sage]

Did that same issue

[neat plaza]

is your AV deleting it?

[sly elm]

that's okay, it's probably just missing some textures. since you want to get rid of that mod anyway, selling the animals with error signs should fix the error you had as those should be the modded animals

items from that mod won't make your game crash, they'll just stay error items that you can trash or sell

[wheat owl]

Thank you Megan and Pokky. working through getting rid of them now 🙂

[round sage]

Not that it shows

It as no recent history

[tawdry arch]

hiii, Im having issues with smapi if anyone is able to help. I tried to update it and I did and ever since smapi will not load up when I launch stardew from steam. I deleted smapi and my mods and restarted the process all over again and I was wondering if there are any quick fixes or if Im just being mildy stupid

[sly elm]

!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.

[sly elm]

did you set your launch options in steam?

[wheat owl]

And it is fixed! Thank you SO much!

[tawdry arch]

is that the link Im supposed to copy into it ? if so then yes I did that

[sly elm]

can you take a screenshot of what's in the launch options? sometimes people miss a part of what's supposed to go in there

[tawdry arch]

yes one sec!!

[sly elm]

Have fun playing without errors!

does anything more come behind the .exe part?

or is that the last word that's copied in there?

[tawdry arch]

thats the last word

ah then you're missing a part, let me copy that quickly

Missing file: "C:\Users"My name"\Downloads\Stardew mods\SMAPI 4.0.8 installer"internal\windows\SMAPI.Installer.dll

[gaunt gust]

Okay, go into the internal folder

Then windows

Then click smapi.installer.exe

[vestal dust]

so here's a fun issue.
Husband and I have been playing multiplayer from different computers for a long time. No issues.
We keep everything the same but suddnely a random dresser-like chest shows up when using chests anywhere - shown as unknown storage type at Unknown (0,0) and he (As the farmhand) cannot craft or cook anything unless the required materials were specifically in his inventory. workbenches, better crafting, fridge/stove connections don't work at all. He gets the error message on the bottom of his screen "Unable to access some inventories". That error does not show up in smapi.
Very, very rarely, I will also get the same message - but my item crafts anyway. His doesn't.

his log: https://smapi.io/log/c0b4986756654bffb912673b8111556f
my log:https://smapi.io/log/035079bbae3e409b8abceff27fbf6cc3
note: these have previous mods wearmoretings and skillrings deleted which may have had some issues shown up. removing these mods caused no change in behavior - the error message and the weird chest still exist.
any ideas?

I am unsure if the weird chest and the crafting error are even connected other than they showed up at the same time.

i find only this log on my pc

so ithink that

wanna give you teamviewer and try to fix it for me ?

[thick lotus]

i need help with smapi and CJB cheat menu

[vestal dust]

what sort of help?

[thick lotus]

what a sec ill show the log thing

[vestal dust]

I'll need a link to the full mod plus a description of what's actually happening.
that snippet indicates that you have a mod that's not loading, but that's not CJB so I'm not sure if its the problem you're referencing.

It is! is your game simply not launching?

[thick lotus]

no its launching just when i load a save and press <P> it wont bring up the cheat menu

whats the diagnosis

[vestal dust]

cjb cheats doesn't appear to be installed correctly - did you get it from nexus mods directly?

[thick lotus]

yep then maually put it in vortex mod manager, do you wanna vc so i can screen share?

[vestal dust]

vortex is... problematic.

!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.

[thick lotus]

ok

then can i screen share and you show me how to?

becuase thats the only way ik how to

[vestal dust]

unfortunately, I don't have the ability to do a screenshare right now. but there are two links in that governor message with pretty good walkthroughs.

stardrop is fairly intuitive if you're used to a mod manager.

[thick lotus]

do i just put my mods in the mod folder in the steam file for stardew valley when doing it manually?

[vestal dust]

for you, it'll be D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods

[thick lotus]

and just put the mods in my mod loader in there?

[sudden summit]

!reset have you tried resetting your files yet? FHSKD im busy at the moment and am uncomfortable doing things like that for strangers

[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.

[vestal dust]

Either use a mod loader or don't - don't try to mix and match.
I personally do it all manually. just extract the manual download's zip file into that folder.

[thick lotus]

do i un zip it when in the mods folder or keep it zipped

[vestal dust]

unzip it. Again - very detailed and awesome instructions are found here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started

oh oky

[thick lotus]

@vestal dust when i unzipped everything and put it in my mod folder it doesnt work 😐

[heady flicker]

Hello guys! im trying to add this mod:

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9203?tab=description

But appartenly it doesnt work in the latest game version. My question may be stupid but since its a portrait change, is it possible to just manually replace them in the game folder?

[neat plaza]

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.

To use this command, type !xnbzola.

[pallid summit]

it looks like this mod is intended to work by replacing the normal image assets inside the ridgeside village CP mod

so i am guessing that RSV moved their assets around, and that's why it stopped working?
you will probably have to do some legwork to move them to the right places

since this is old, it also won't cover any new RSV content, so it also may be incomplete

hey! Can I get you to run through this troubleshooting guide https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_doesn.27t_launch? If none of the options there work, can you post the error message you get if you open SMAPI using the command line?

To use this command, type !troubleshoot.

[oak forum]

I'd follow the lag portion of this guide

[shy orbit]

for the Portraits and BeachPortraits the folder structure seems to still the same, but if RSV added anything to those portrait files replacing them is problematic. it would be best to make a content patcher content pack that uses EditImage to edit the portraits instead. doesn't look like it would be difficult either, looks like RSV just Loads them in Ridgeside Village/[CP] Ridgeside Village/Data/NPCData/Portraits.json and you could basically copy those patches to your content pack and change the Loads to EditImages, unless my RSV is outdated or there is additional stuff happening which is possible -- someone in #making-mods-general can probably help you if you're not familiar with making CP content packs

[regal willow]

hey yall, any idea what would cause tile over lap like this? it only happens to town interiors [museum, marnie, pierre, etc] and is only a recent issue. kinda came out of nowhere after i updated content patcher. ive ripped apart my mods since trying to find the culprit and noticed that when i removed [Lumisteria Tilesheets] the items were gone but the "blotches" stayed. its not vibrant pastoral or my interior decoration mod since its using random vanilla assets 😭 sorry for the ramble ive been tinkering a bit and cant find the culprit any help is appreciated

Hey, I'm hoping this is the right channel for this. I am banging my head against the wall because I know this should be easy and I'm just having a dumb moment. I have TMX Map Toolkit because I need it to edit a particular mod I downloaded that uses tmx files and I just can't figure out how I am meant to start? Does it have a .exe file somewhere that I can't find? I'm sure I sound really dumb right now, but I'm burnt out trying

[regal willow]

could it be carolines mod omg

thank you for pointing that out!

about to re try taking out some other ones

[shy orbit]

if it doesn't fix it lookup anything's tile lookups could be useful in showing what tilesheets the tiles are using

[shy orbit]

it isn't used for editing as far as i know. better to ask in #making-mods-general how to do what you want probably

[regal willow]

i have that mod and didnt realize it could do that! very cool

is there a way to play LAN co-op with the modded game not purchased?

so im using SMAPI to load mods, however i have followed all the neccessary steps to install successfully and properly, but it fails to load. it just goes to a black screen and then 'not responding'. i took out all the mods and tried, but it said the exact same thing, leading me to believe its not anything to do with the mods. nothing stands out in the logs either. any help would be greatly appriceiated.

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).

[zinc acorn]

Hello, I'm having an issue trying to run commands in Smapi. I was trying to force a catch of a fish on the More New Fish mod that wasn't appearing despite the fact it should be available and I was using magic bait, and went to find console commands to force catch it to get it out of the way. No commands located on the wiki page work, not debug, not fish, nothing I tried. I typed "help" and all the commands I was offered were directly tied to mods I have and no basic stardew commands available.

[naive drum]

Do you have the Console Commands mod?

[zinc acorn]

There's a custom mod strictly for commands? I assumed it was viable to just type into the window that Smapi launches.

[radiant valve]

It's not custom, it gets installed with SMAPI

it should be in your mods folder

[zinc acorn]

I have the latest version of Smapi so I have to assume it's there, let me check real fast.

I do not see a folder in my mods folder that says Console Commands.

But I am running 4.0.8 Smapi.

[radiant valve]

You probably deleted it without realizing

reinstall SMAPI

ConsoleCommands and SaveBackup should always be in your mods folder

[zinc acorn]

Alrighty, I have console commands now, the commands still aren't working

[radiant valve]

You restarted the game after installing?

[zinc acorn]

Correct.

[radiant valve]

which command are you trying to use?

[naive drum]

debug fish "Sanke Koi"?

[zinc acorn]

I will try that

[radiant valve]

it requests an item id

i don't think that's it

might have to look inside the mod for it

[jagged marsh]

Yeah - most commands are buried behind debug to keep the list of commands sane and to create a demarcation between "cheats" and modded console commands

[zinc acorn]

Well, the debug option is working more than the former I tried

Understood.

[radiant valve]

I imagine the ID wouldn't be just the name

[zinc acorn]

It seems that running that command impropely has broken my game

Time to restart it again

[lavish rover]

vanilla is fine, just smapi

[radiant valve]

Commands have the capacity to do that, heh

[jagged marsh]

It probably tried to generate something and got junk data back - what mod are you trying to summon a fish from again? I'll dig into it real fast

[radiant valve]

more new fish irc?

[zinc acorn]

More New Fish, theres several fish that aren't spawning at the times they're supposed to.

[radiant valve]

Report to mod author if that's the case

there isn't a list of fish id's on the description, which is fair, probably means you gotta check the mod files

[jagged marsh]

I can't remember, does Content Patcher remap a name like MNF.MoreNewFish_sanke_koi to an internal object ID?

[zinc acorn]

I joined their discord and brought up my struggle but I don't know when they'll actually reply to me so I looked for other means.

[radiant valve]

The mod author sets the object ID

[zinc acorn]

If only Lookup Anything gave me the item ID like I thought it would I might be golden now.

[radiant valve]

if the key (line up top) says that I think it's the id

it can!

[zinc acorn]

I don't see that date in the menu for it?

[radiant valve]

you need to turn on a setting for it, forgot what it was called

uhh moment

yeah you need to turn on Show Data Mining Fields in lookup anything setting to see object id

[jagged marsh]

Yeah - unless I'm missing it somewhere in the json files, MNF.MoreNewFish_sanke_koi is the only identifier I can find - maybe lookup anything will give something different

[zinc acorn]

Alright, lets try again then

[radiant valve]

Carp example

142 cause it's a vanilla item, modded items have actual names

sushi example

[zinc acorn]

AGHAGAHS

We got it fellas

Jesus Christ, thank you so much

[radiant valve]

don't include the (o) btw (or maybe do? idk tbh)

[zinc acorn]

That was so frusterating

[jagged marsh]

What was the actual ID?

[radiant valve]

guessing something is up with the code if the fish doesn't spawn

[zinc acorn]

You actually had it spot on

[radiant valve]

lookup anything isn't supposed to change item id's

[jagged marsh]

Ok, so that was the right mapping - just wasn't sure because I don't normally tinker in that area

[zinc acorn]

The mod itself hasn't been updated in 2-3 months, and I'm running like 130 mods so it could be either of those things

[radiant valve]

Comments suggest conflicts with other mods that add fish, but I am unsure.

I don't use the mod or know the author, could be anything.

[jagged marsh]

It was released after 1.6 so hopefully it'd be fully compatible, but you know, things don't always match up

[zinc acorn]

Mhmm, thank you for all of your help!

[radiant valve]

there shouldn't be issues with other mods, mind you. The mod uses unique ids

[jagged marsh]

Yeah - if I'm reading this right it SHOULD be catchable in the woods during summer

[radiant valve]

but you know, when it comes to modding, a single comma can make or break your day

[jagged marsh]

Though is "Woods" as a field the secret* woods, or the forest south of the farm?

[radiant valve]

Woods is secret woods

Forest is forest

there's a list somewhere

[zinc acorn]

Well, there's 8 variant of koi

[jagged marsh]

Yeah - I'm looking through Location.json now

[zinc acorn]

I caught 5 out of 8 in one sitting with time frozen using magic bait.

I caught a 6th variant earlier in my game

[jagged marsh]

But yeah - Sanke koi is theoretically .1 weight, secret woods, summer, all day

[radiant valve]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Location_data#Location_names

[zinc acorn]

All 8 should have been available by using magic bait

So it was really frusterating that is simple was not appearing

[radiant valve]

where you in the secret woods?

[zinc acorn]

Mhmm

[radiant valve]

weird

[zinc acorn]

Very, right?

[jagged marsh]

All 8 Koi seem to have the same odds - could be statistical weirdness

Especially with magic bait tinkering with the pond rates

[zinc acorn]

Catching 30 of each fish type without 1 of the 3 I was missing is a statistical wonder then hahaha

[jagged marsh]

Statistics are whack, but yeah - always a tossup

[radiant valve]

look at all that koi

[zinc acorn]

Yep

[jagged marsh]

I'd be inclined to suspect statistics over 30 fish, given magic bait. If you were fishing only in the summer under the right conditions, it might be more testable

[zinc acorn]

Really, thank you both so much. That would have ruined my whole night hahaha

Well I tried for Sanke on the 28th of Summer, then gave up and tried for Tancho on the 1st of fall, neither would appear despite the right time place weather and season in addition to magic bait.

[jagged marsh]

Yeah - I looked at the content files and all the information for the koi looked right

[dire fractal]

heyy, I started the game recently on pc gamepass and I downloaded a few mods including the gojo npc one and I can't get any heart events with him even tho all conditions are here for it. The others npc's heart event looks like they work perfectly fine, could someone help please ?

[vestal dust]

so here's a fun issue.
Husband and I have been playing multiplayer from different computers for a long time. No issues.
We keep everything the same but suddnely a random dresser-like chest shows up when using chests anywhere - shown as unknown storage type at Unknown (0,0) and he (As the farmhand) cannot craft or cook anything unless the required materials were specifically in his inventory. workbenches, better crafting, fridge/stove connections don't work at all. He gets the error message on the bottom of his screen "Unable to access some inventories". That error does not show up in smapi.
Very, very rarely, I will also get the same message - but my item crafts anyway. His doesn't.

his log: https://smapi.io/log/c0b4986756654bffb912673b8111556f
my log:https://smapi.io/log/035079bbae3e409b8abceff27fbf6cc3
note: these have previous mods wearmoretings and skillrings deleted which may have had some issues shown up. removing these mods caused no change in behavior - the error message and the weird chest still exist.
any ideas?

I am unsure if the weird chest and the crafting error are even connected other than they showed up at the same time.

well the skillrings are rings that you can wear right? @vestal dust

did you have any of them in one of you dressers before deleting the mod?

this could have corrupted a part of the save file

[vestal dust]

The issue started before we deleted the mod and didn't resolve when we put it back.

[empty cairn]

oh ok

[vestal dust]

We only deleted it to test whether it was the one creating the weird storage bin. (it wasn'tl

[empty cairn]

who is hosting the game again?

[vestal dust]

I am

[empty cairn]

Ok so the logs you sent. Did you have the error in the instantce the logs are from?

[vestal dust]

Yes, multiple times

[empty cairn]

ok

[vestal dust]

Not that I saw anything indicating the error in the logs, but that specific run through was testing the error, after removing skill rings so we also didn't really do anything else

[empty cairn]

ok

Did you add any new mods before you had the problem?

[vestal dust]

Nope

[empty cairn]

ok

i found this in the log

Chest Anywhere: Multiplayer limitations: you can only access chests in synced locations since you're not the main player. This is due to limitations in the game's sync logic.

Does he always have those problems or only when your on the other side of the map or something like that

[vestal dust]

In this particular log, we were both physically on the main farm

[empty cairn]

ok

have you tried verifying gamefiles

[vestal dust]

And the only ones he's really trying to craft from are ones on the map he's on, always on the main farm.

Verifying didn't change anything.

[empty cairn]

ok weird

[vestal dust]

We know that he can't see chests in my house or vapius or other places unless he's there or I'm there, that's expected behavior. The inability to craft from a chest he's 2 tiles away from is just... Odd

[empty cairn]

what do you mean with dresser-like chest

would you mind sharing a screenshot or something like that

[vestal dust]

we don't even know if the weird chest is related to the crafting issue - they just showed up at the same time.
I'll grab a screen cap of it though!

[empty cairn]

ok good

[empty cairn]

what mod is that with the 42 and the arrows?

[empty cairn]

wait I found something in the logs

[vestal dust]

that's better chests.

[empty cairn]

does removing Better Chests Break the game?

if not try deleting if and see what happens

[vestal dust]

we haven't specifically done it, because we have so MANY things that would get deleted if we do.

I am honestly not sure if it'd break or not.

I can try! I can also find the wizarddresser and delete that to see if it helps.

[empty cairn]

make a copy of your save file. delete and see what happens

you know where save files are stored?

[vestal dust]

yup

[empty cairn]

good

[vestal dust]

Found and deleted the offending dresser. He's loading up now to see if he can craft. 😄

[empty cairn]

there were a lot more of those

the junimo dresse was also in the list.

some were just id's

i say something with Better Chests broke. Try deleting the mod and redownloading it from the web and than install the new version. Maybe that does something

[vestal dust]

Better Chests also lets you carry around full chests - we had a dresser stored in one of our chests on the farm. so what I'm wondering is if better chests just doesn't like that access for farmhands since it's not in a synced location.

the dresser I deleted wasn't a wizard dresser, but rather one of three in the decor chest. it made the weird unknown chest go away - and since "Unknown" wouldn't be synced, I wonder if that nesting isn't what's causing his issue.

[empty cairn]

theres also an error with some Better Crafting file not found. Try removing Better Chests and its dependencies (required mods) and reinstalling them

[vestal dust]

if he can't craft here shortly, I'll delete the whole mod and try again that way. 😄

[empty cairn]

ok

[vestal dust]

we have some mods to update either way. some that came out yesterday. Better chests should have been fine, but I'll definitely redo it.

no dice. deleting better chests entirely now.

[empty cairn]

ok

[vestal dust]

We had that set up right at one point. I wonder if I updated and the convenient chests config got changed.
removing better chests did work - let me put it back and check that configuration.

[empty cairn]

Thats probably it.

[vestal dust]

I really appreciate you working through this with me. I'm usually decent at troubleshooting, but just... got stuck this time.

[empty cairn]

No problem

[vestal dust]

so that config wasn't broken. but I'll try straight up removing convenient chests instead - better chests makes them big and sorts through them. convenient is only there to let me mash a button to empty and auto sort my inventory. we could get along without that if required to (But.. urg. :p)

[empty cairn]

hmm ok so we know that it's better chests now.

[scenic kernel]

Hey guys! Does anyone got a mod that adds some storage containers. ( cuter ones or small ones) bc all the storage mods are not working, what I got 😭

[empty cairn]

the thing is you didn't have that error before when you where using both mods right? @vestal dust

[vestal dust]

accurate.

[empty cairn]

ok so did you also reinstall better crafting?

[vestal dust]

I haven't yet, but I can. I'm loading one now with better chests reinstalled and set to default and convenient chests completely deleted.

[empty cairn]

ok

[vestal dust]

and... that didn't work.

[empty cairn]

ok so it is better chests

[vestal dust]

removing better chests entirely DID work it just deleted a BUNCH of things.

so it's definitely better chests.

[empty cairn]

Hmm ok so gimme a second I need to think for a bit

since when do you have the problem?

[vestal dust]

in the meantime, here's new logs:

its been a couple of weeks? we don't play every day, so it's hard to tell.

[empty cairn]

@vestal dust mind hopping on a call?

I am a bit tired of typing

[worthy moth]

Try configuring the Wizard Dresser so that AccessChest and CraftFromChest is disabled.

[empty cairn]

ah hi matt

[worthy moth]

[empty cairn]

So we tried it with another save file and there was no problem. But as soon as they entered back into the old save the problem was back

wanna dm me. I have the save files and some more logs

[worthy moth]

I think it has to do with trying to include the dresser as a storage for crafting

The issue might've started once you obtained/placed the dresser

But if you disable crafting for all dressers, that should make the mod ignore it

[empty cairn]

It's not my save but I was trying to help her and she sent me the saves. And some more logs

[worthy moth]

Ah, I see. I replied to the wrong post

[empty cairn]

@vestal dust

She's the one with the problem

[vestal dust]

I'll poke more on your server where the updated issues are. 😄

[alpine plume]

Updated. Sorry for delay

[pure flint]

a lot of my plants and decor turned into big red crossed out circles? is there any way to fix this or find out the source?

[vestal dust]

so. noted: as the host, even though craft at a distance through better crafting was disabled on my machine - I could still craft at a distance. The farmhand could not.
Correcting that setting allowed him to craft again. The workbench still doesn't work. but ... meh? There's likely a mismatched setting there that I'll tackle later.

[vestal dust]

did you remove and/or update a mod?

[pure flint]

i had to update several

[vestal dust]

the core cause of that is an item id that either doesn't exist in your mod files anymore, or was updated to something else, resulting in an object existing in your world that doesn't exist in your game files.

[pure flint]

its the little like flowers like the seasonal ones you place for decor that arent loading

[vestal dust]

if you have a log, we can check for mods that aren't loading properly. Or if you know what mod the now invalid items came from, you can delete the bad ids and respawn them in using cjb.

[pure flint]

ah how do i retrieve the log

[vestal dust]

otherwise, you can try going back to older versions of the mods in question, but then of course you're missing out on the benefits of the updates.

guys

if i download a mod in coop does the other one see it too

You can mod your multiplayer games, but to avoid any hiccups, all players' mod lists need to match. If players have too many mismatched mods, you will experience bugs in your game - even if the mods were working fine earlier, there is no guarantee that they will stay that way, and strange things may start occurring.

There are a few exceptions to this - cosmetic mods usually work fine with no glitches, and some C# mods work as well. The main mod page often includes information on whether or not they work in multiplayer. However, in general, your mod lists should match exactly.

See the wiki page for more details on how mods work in multiplayer!

Multiplayer Mod Checker is an easy way to determine if host/farmhand mods match.

To use this command, type !mpmods.

[radiant valve]

if they don't have it, they won't, which might cause issues

[hardy palm]

okay got it

thank youu
