varies based on phone - try to find a list of what's installed in settings

[fervent grove]

Yep, looks like I have 52 😭

Thank you for saving me time scouring the internet for solutions!

[jagged marsh]

Yeah - Sorry to be the one bringing bad news

[steel path]

hello

i need help

i uninstalled spacecore and now i cant do any multiplayer, it crashes my game, i cant load either i have smapi or not. how do i fix this please? this is my smapi log.

[plush topaz]

It looks like you uninstalled a lot more than just SpaceCore - you have zero mods enabled, not even content patcher

[steel path]

should i go ahead and install content patcher now and it should work?

[plush topaz]

and all the previous mods that made up your save?

[steel path]

theres also an issue in the logs where it says errors abt elle's cuter barn animals when i never even had that mod installed

[steel path]

yep

so what happened in full was

i couldnt join a multiplayer world after trying like 3 versions of spacecore.. so i uninstalled it

[plush topaz]

is the mp world modded? is your game modded?

[steel path]

and then nothing seems to be working my logs were just bleeding red so i tried to reinstall everthing with no avail

[steel path]

the mp world is modded yes

is there a way i can fix this?

[plush topaz]

then your modlist must match exactly, especially with a C# mod that touches save serialization like SpaceCore

[steel path]

but i dont have spacecore on my pc at all anymore

[plush topaz]

and can you start a new game?

[steel path]

nope i cant.. in multiplayer world it just crashes my game or it gives me a full bleeding log with everything frozen

[plush topaz]

a new single player game I mean

[steel path]

i already reinstalled and removed, verified the files and removed all my previous save files that had spacecore json in it

[steel path]

let me try

[plush topaz]

if that MP world has a modlist, your mods must match. no ifs or buts

[steel path]

alright i will do that, even if i dont have spacecore anymore? bc before i installed spacecore i can join in just fine without the mdoss matching at all

[plush topaz]

then why did you install SpaceCore? It's a framework that's only used when another mod requires it

[steel path]

i installed it because of a cosmetic mod i found thats called updated seasonal japanese buildings

[plush topaz]

and is the MP host using SpaceCore?

[steel path]

not at all

thats why i couldnt join beforehand when i had SC

but now that i dont have it.. everything is crashing

[plush topaz]

a lesson for next time I guess. your mod list must match, even for so-called cosmetic mods, and that goes triple for a mod that touches save serialization like SpaceCore

for now, get the mod list from the host, install everything on it (since it looks like you deleted every other mod, not just SpaceCore) and try again

[steel path]

yes i can

okay ill do as you advise

thanks for helping me

[plush topaz]

no prob. I'm going to bed now so if you have more problems please don't ping me - other support people can chime in

[steel path]

hey

well it worked now

the issues now is just i dont like the cosmetic mods the host uses but i guess theres no way around it anymore?

i still have questions becasue

before i installed spacecore, i never had an issue with using different cosmetic mods than the host

but after all this fiasco i seem to cant do that anymore.. but of course its my fault but i also want to understand

becasue before i had spacecore everything is all smooth.. during spacecore i need to have the mods... but now that i dont have spacecore, i still need to adhere to the spacecore law?

is it like.. i can never remove the save serialization of spacecore or, is there still a way to revert it back to before the whole spacecore changes was made?

[jagged marsh]

There's no perfect answer, but any content mod that has Spacecore as a dependency likely needs 100% match with the host.

[left night]

Hi how do i get to the sewers in expanded, i've donated over 60 pieces to the museum did CC got to the bottom of the mines

[jagged marsh]

Stardew Valley Expanded moves the sewer key to Marlon, the Adventure Guild guy

||Bottom of the mines, Year 2, seen the winter cutscene with krobus||

[left night]

uhh i did those lol,

i'll try to look it up lol

[jagged marsh]

Did you go into the Adventurer's Guild after?

[left night]

yes ( going there now lol )

[jagged marsh]

Ah, need 5 hearts too

[left night]

how do i do spoiler.

[jagged marsh]

Do /spoiler then message

[left night]

||i thought his boat was gonna bring me to the red place||

in the cutscene though thank you 😄

[steel path]

i did it... we started a new world and it didnt require me to use the same cosmetic mods as the host, just the QoL system mods

i think the issue was that the old mp world got save serialized by the old spacecore so it would corrupt even if i didnt have it anymore, but since this new world is in the og saves.. it didnt hawve any complciations

hi! thanks audri for help earlier i was able to play without any troubles! but now my friend (host) is having some issues, so if anyone could take a look at their logs and let me know ! (they dont use discord)

does anyone know if using a dialogue mod while playing co-op as the farmhand will work? my friend has a different dialogue mod from the same creator running and he's getting the dialogue while I've not gotten any

[woven cedar]

do u have same mod? if not, you wont be able to see!

[weak sinew]

they're both mods for more dialogue after marrige, he's married to sam and im married to sebastian, so we have those respective mods

[shy orbit]

the problem is that SVE is installed in two locations in the Mods folder, and the fix is to delete both of them and reinstall the mod (for simplicity), the log site tells the locations of the installs in the red messages if needed

I've got a problem with gh peach body, I can't change the eye colour it's stuck dark brown idk why

nvm found the problem...for some reason the oversized sleeves mod was overwriting the eye colour to be dark brown....it didn't do that with the other body mods. Shame it isn't compatible

another problem now...the sprite still has a nose even with the option unticked and with only content patcher, generic mod config and gh peach body

hm you don't seem to have the 2 mods that came packaged with smapi, did you intentionally delete them

[languid pier]

oh what is it?

i dont really know whats happening

[high anvil]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[long brook]

Technically yes. If it is Content Patcher mod, most likely working just fine. But a mod that change game mechanic, most probably won't work. So you need to read mod description/tag/post if someone said the mod is no longer worked on 1.6 or check smapi.io/mod

should i reinstall smapi?

No Clip

No clip is a mod that will allow you to walk through walls and any other additional obstacles that you would not normally be able to walk through. This is excellent for debugging for both modded players and mod authors for mod testing purposes.

You might also want it to collect your casks when using a custom cellar!

To use this command, type !noclip.

the cheat mods nd stuff work its just the hair, fit and build mods etc that dont

[plush topaz]

it says right there you're missing dependencies - Calcifier, Furniture Framework, JSON Assets (make sure to download version 1.11.8)

Though for JA specifically you should check whether the mod that depends on it has an updated version that uses Content Patcher because JA is deprecated

[languid pier]

OMG IT WORKSSSSS THANK YOU SOOO MUCH

[plush topaz]

As for DCBurger's portraits, you need to download the second file and use Portraiture:
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/999

(Pytk is outdated and will not work)

[feral elk]

i removed calcifier and furniture framework cuz it said it clashed with alternative textures

[feral elk]

whats JA

[feral elk]

ok thzx

[plush topaz]

JSON Assets

[plush topaz]

no it shouldn't?

oh yeah, you also need to update UI Info Suite 2

!uiinfosuite

[native dragon]

UI Info Suite 2 can be found at https://github.com/Annosz/UIInfoSuite2/releases. It works with Stardew 1.5.6 and 1.6. Download the first zip, not the source code.

[feral elk]

idk

so i shoukd download portraiture, json assets and info suite 2

[plush topaz]

it justs mean you can't apply AT style switches to furniture mods made with FF

[feral elk]

ohh

okay thx ill download them now and try

[plush topaz]

yep. Note that for portraiture you need to manually unpack the png portraits from DCBurger into its folder

[vestal trellis]

Is there a mod where I can access the adventurers guild because I use a cheat mod to complete the quest to enter it but I haven't gotten the letter

[feral elk]

i think i downloaded the wrong

[plush topaz]

And Portraiture should have instructions in its description. You need to download the raw pngs from DCBurger portraits and put it somewhere inside Portraiture's folders

[feral elk]

info suite

[feral elk]

ok ty

none of these mods are working

or the fashion sense ones

[plush topaz]

How AT works is that you need to use the tools bought from Robin to change the texture of the placed objects/items

They don't automatically change by themselves last I recall

[feral elk]

ohhhh

ur righttt!!

mb 🙏

okay tysm for the help

[plush topaz]

[sand sleet]

hi, me again. trying to unzip the happy birthday mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/520?tab=description) and it keeps giving me errors because the file names are too long

im on windows 10 if it helps

[jagged marsh]

What's the filepath to your Stardew directory? Those are long file names, but that + the filepath may be hitting Windows 256 character limit

[sand sleet]

yeah changing the windows default unzip folder name works

(forgot windows had a character limit)

[jagged marsh]

Yeah - you might still run into issues depending on how deep the stardew filepath is, but you might be able to trim a few characters from the mod folder name

[sand sleet]

how likely is the space core mod to corrupt a save file

[scarlet quail]

zilch.

[jagged marsh]

Spacecore actually helps by managing certain items so that removing the mod that adds them doesn't corrupt the file (Custom tools especially, I believe)

[scarlet quail]

If mods were going to corrupt the save file, they wouldn't be used, essentially

[jagged marsh]

The warning is in the log specifically because it does tinker with how saves are done

[sand sleet]

ohhhhh
thanks!

[tired brook]

(SpaceCore is pretty stable, so it's safe to use despite that warning. The warning is there for a reason though; SpaceCore has broken saves in rare cases before, though SMAPI and the game can usually auto-recover.)

[grand dragon]

where do i put the mods like what file

[winged vessel]

You unzip them into the Mods/ folder

[grand dragon]

it has other stuff in it

ConesoleCommands and SaveBackup

[winged vessel]

yeah, those are default mods

[grand dragon]

oh ok

thanks

[slow river]

So I am new to the moding community of Stardew, I am just wanting to make sure I don't break my computer or the modding system.

[grand dragon]

if i download it fromm nexus can i use mods form curseforge

smapi form nexus

mods from curseforge

[slow river]

I was also hoping to get some recommdations for mods?

[plush topaz]

you can download mods from wherever - Nexus, ModDrop, Curseforge, GitHub, Naver
Nexus is the recommended place though - the vast, vast (and I mean vast) majority of SDV mods are on Nexus

If nothing is in error logs, then are you sure you're launching the game with SMAPI?

You should see a window like

[grand dragon]

i dont know

[winged vessel]

do you see a window like the one above

if not

you probably need to set your steam launch options

im not on steam

im on gog

ok it works now

then set the gog launch config if you want to launch from it

Is it a bad idea to add mods as a new player who’s never played before? If anything, I want to add a mod to make the game look prettier but I’m not sure if it’s a good idea

Hi!! I've checked my SMAPI log and there's nothing about East Scarp there, and I haven't seen anything similar to this issue when I've looked around. I'm guessing I missed installing something, or maybe something needs moved?

Sorry - Nothing super obvious stands out in the log , though ShowBirthdays is having issues (It's a 1.5 mod that's throwing errors, so it's probably time to kill it)

You've got a lot of warnings about warps to East Scarp being missing (More then we usually see) - I highly recommend completely removing East Scarpe and downloading a fresh copy

[blissful echo]

I'll try that again!! Thank you

ShowBirthdays was eaten by the game

@sinful sonnet You have been told numerous times now, they cannot help you with android modding. Unfortunately, it's just broken right now so who knows if it will be looked on in the future.

!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.

Oh i just needed help tryna upgrade it bc it kept telling me I need to upgrade my ContentPatcher

I already downloaded the new one but im scared ill mess it up and i forgot to set up a mod💀

[jagged marsh]

It's fairly straight forward - If you've already downloaded an updated copy.

Go to your Mods Folder
Find the old Content Patcher
Delete it
Go to your updated Content Patcher
Copy it into the Mods directory

[dire fractal]

There a zipper do i unzipped it?

[jagged marsh]

Yes - you'll need to unzip it - SMAPI can't read zip files

[dire fractal]

Okay

How do i unzipped it...

[jagged marsh]

If you're on Windows, you just open the zip file like any other folder, then you can either hit extract (at the top), or just drag the folder out of the zip.

[dire fractal]

Got it

I may not... like... fucked it up...

[jagged marsh]

Alright - What happened?

It'll be easy enough to fix.

[dire fractal]

God I hate adding and updating mods😭

It scary and confusing im so sorry

[jagged marsh]

Ok - I'm not gonna try to read an error message from that - Can you post a log (Instructions below, it's easy)

!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.

[jagged marsh]

Also, no need to be scared - We'll get it fixed and get you back in the game and playing.

here i was just on moblie

now im here in my computer

[jagged marsh]

Ok - It looks like you might have deleted something from the Content folder?

[sharp fossil]

That’s a chonky text wall

^^

[soft path]

yeah u told me to delete the old one

didnt u?

WAIT PLS DONT TELL ME I MESSED IT UP

[jagged marsh]

The Content Patcher folder in Mods, not the Content folder (That's all critical game files).

It's an easy fix, no worries.

Go to Steam - Go to Stardew Valley - Right Click - Properties

[pallid summit]

deep breath, everything is fine

[soft path]

this is the 4th time i came here

bc i always messed up my game

[jagged marsh]

Go to Installed Files on the left, then hit the button labeled "Verify Integrity of Game Files"

[sharp fossil]

(Steam W)

[jagged marsh]

Steam will detect that the files are missing, then redownload them for you.

[sharp fossil]

That will recover any critical game files you accidentally delete or that somehow get messed up

[soft path]

yeah

[sharp fossil]

It doesn’t mess with mods, just main game files

[soft path]

thanks

[jagged marsh]

Once Steam finishes redownloading the files, let me know, and I'll walk you through replacing Content Patcher more carefully.

You haven't done any lasting damage (And your saves are fine), and we'll get it fixed and get you back in game.

[soft path]

thanks

it just got done downloading

lemme make sure

k it good

[jagged marsh]

Alright. Go to your Stardew Valley Folder -> Go to Mods. (Right now you have 3 mods in there, SaveBackup, ConsoleCommands, ContentPatcher).

Once you're there, delete the folder labeled ContentPatcher

[dire fractal]

Just wanna be sure

[jagged marsh]

Open the Mods folder

[soft path]

did

so i delete the contentpatcher

[jagged marsh]

Correct. Just the folder labeled ContentPatcher which is the old version

[soft path]

i did

[jagged marsh]

Ok. Now is when you copy a fresh copy of Content Patcher from the downloaded zip and put it in the Mods folder.

In this case, you accidentally put it one folder back, in Stardew Valley. Go ahead and cut that ContentPatcher and paste it in the Mods folder.

[soft path]

is it the one that out of the mod folder or do i need put ane one.

[jagged marsh]

The copy that exists in the Stardew Valley folder is the one you were trying to install.

If you'd prefer, you can get a fresh copy from the zip, but this should be that same folder.

[soft path]

AH okay i moved it in

[jagged marsh]

Alright - Go ahead and launch Stardew, and let's make sure there are no errors (And that it's showing that Content Patcher does not need to be updated)

[soft path]

it worked

thank youu

sorry if i bothered you but thank you so much miss!!

[jagged marsh]

No problem. I hope the process is a lot less scary for you now.

Now that you've got Content Patcher up to date, you should find some mods that use it to add things to the game.

Content Patcher by itself is just a framework to allow mods to add things to the game.

[jagged marsh]

And no problem - That's what this channel is here for - I'm glad we were able to get this sorted out.

[soft path]

thank youuuuuu

It looks like the warp location issue is related to Downton Zuzu--I'll try reinstalling that one next

[native dragon]

Log Info: SMAPI 4.0.8 with SDV 1.6.8 build 24119 on Microsoft Windows 11 Home, with 31 C# mods and 49 content packs.
Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[sharp fossil]

I wouldnt worry too much about the warps

[sinful sonnet]

Can you guys at least tell me whether I have to reinstall SMAPI SDV after updating SMAPI?

[jagged marsh]

They're all referencing one map, which may have been renamed or removed - If nothing is obviously broken, it's probably harmless to ignore.

The giant wall of warnings for Integrated Minecarts seems like it's looking for mods (that it supports) that you don't have installed, and can probably be ignored (But I don't know for certain)

[jagged marsh]

And if you run into issues adding new mods, the channel will be here to help.

[sharp fossil]

Yeah the warps text is nearly harmless afaik (i have so many of those lol)
Never had problems with any yellow text tbh

I have all the major expansions and never ran into any problems with them

[jagged marsh]

In this case, they originally had issues with East Scarp and it was generating a wide variety of warp errors - I just wanted a follow up log to make sure things were looking better.

[sharp fossil]

Certain yellow text is more or less harmless

[sharp fossil]

Yeah I get a lot of those too
You can try reinstalling, but it’s something with SpaceCore and there isnt much you can do to get rid of the warp warnings

I get a fair bit from Ridgeside too
Never had problems afaik

[nocturne zealot]

Hii, I just saw the import option for fashion sense, is it possible to move a saved outfit from one save to another?

[stark horizon]

Hi! There is, in a manner of speaking - in the latest version of Fashion Sense you can "export" an outfit, which will save it to the clipboard. You can then paste it into a text editor and save it. Then you'd open a different save file and "import" it from the saved location.

[nocturne zealot]

Ooh, how do you get to the export function?

[stark horizon]

Use the Hand Mirror to open the menu. On the right hand side you'll see a little icon that looks like a dresser. Click on that and you'll be able to save your outfits. iirc there should be more info on the mod's github wiki 🙂

You need to save your outfit to export it

[nocturne zealot]

ooh, so the saved outfits are in a folder of the mods folder somewhere?

[stark horizon]

No, sorry - I meant you need to save them in the game. I can't remember exactly what it looks like, but one of the icons in the outfits menu is to save what you're wearing as an outfit

Then you can export. I'm not able to launch the game right now to provide screenshots - but the mod's wiki might have more detailed instructions! https://github.com/Floogen/FashionSense/wiki

[nocturne zealot]

thank you :3

[stark horizon]

You're welcome! Good luck!

[dawn mesa]

Is it okay to use visual mods as a new player? (mods that will affect the aesthetic’s of the game and not the gameplay) or will it make things difficult?

[dusk cairn]

how do I get the map predictor? can I do it through smapi?

[jagged marsh]

It's entirely up to what you want. If you want to play Stardew as "intended", but with different graphics, go for it.

[brisk lance]

If you mean this program (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6614), you download it, extract it into a folder anywhere you want (it doesn't have to be in your game folder - I just put it in my Downloads folder), then run it and follow the instructions that are linked in the mod description. It is not a mod for the game and it is not run through SMAPI. It is a completely separate program that uses information from your save file.

I'm experiencing issue on coop mode. When the non-host players interact with a chest via Chests Anywhere mod by pressing the hot key, when they try putting/retrieving items to/from the chest, some items are getting duplicated and some are lost forever.

Is it normal for them to not show up during character creation?

I've downloaded many recolor/furniture/animal mods that worked perfectly fine but for some reason hair mods never pop up in character creation :(

!mpmods #vanilla-tech-support message @ancient plover

[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.

[swift zephyr]

Hello, could anyone help me? I would like to temporarily play without mods using smapi, is there a way to do this? I use Steam and play on my computer

[neat plaza]

you want to run smapi but without mods?

[empty fossil]

can i use custom farms while playing sve?

[swift zephyr]

Run the game without mods, just to play multiplayer with some friends, but I don't know if that's possible

They don't use mods, and I use them a lot, so I would like to know if it is possible to temporarily play the game without mods

[neat plaza]

just open the vanilla game

[neat plaza]

yeah

[empty fossil]

i tried but weird stuff was happening

like in some parts of the farm

items would just dissapear when it hits the floor

and my friend loaded in and the farm was different on her screen xd

[empty fossil]

there should be a modded and vanilla one

[high cairn]

You and your friend would need to have the same custom farm installed to play together on it. You also can't have 2 custom farms replacing the same map (like, if 2 maps both replace the standard farm)

Also, if the farm map has configurable stuff, you should match your configs as well.

[empty fossil]

yeah

she had the same mod

it just showed the normal standard farm for her

xd

were using the sve custom farm nowanyways

much easier

hopefully

[high cairn]

You should also know that SVE has 2 optional files on it's mod page that are both custom farm maps replacing the Standard farm. You can't have both of them. Sometimes this confuses people.

[empty fossil]

yeah

we was using a lnh custom farm

were using the sve immersive farm now

we done spent the last 2 hours tryna make modded co-op work

hopefully this works

[dawn mesa]

Do mods need updating? If so how long can I keep a mod before it needs to be updated?

[orchid gust]

Good afternoon, do you have any tutorials on how to create different maps with different mods?

[spark pivot]

Can you explain what you mean by maps? Is it farm type (standard, forest, beach, etc) or is it location in the game?

[orchid gust]

maps would be the farm, but there isn't a specific one, I just wanted to know if there was a tutorial because I couldn't understand it from the wiki tutorial.

[spark pivot]

if you want you can use stardrop

!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.

[spark pivot]

it supports mod profiles, allowing you to load different mods per save file

calling farm "map" is really confusing because there are many concepts with that name, i am interpreting what you want as wanting to have different mods on your standard farm save vs your meadowlands farm save and so on

[orchid gust]

and how do I use stardrop for this? It seems to be quite complicated

[neat plaza]

are you looking how to add existing farm maps, or make your own one?

[orchid gust]

create my own

[spark pivot]

oh in that case you need to read up on content patcher and map editing, a topic for #making-mods-general

Harro~ I have a question, I have forgotten how modding works but I got SMAPI most-recent version downloaded and installed.

and I'd like to use TimeMultiplier mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2262?tab=description but i'm not sure if i just download the main file? or Multiplayer Beta?

and when even attempting to download the main file, it wants to make sure I have SMAPI 2.6 Beta, even though I have the most updated version, can i disregard that?

[near terrace]

That mod is extremely out of date, so please don't use it.
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/169 Use TimeSpeed instead - it's up to date for the most recent version of the game and SMAPI.

[viscid tinsel]

Oh okay! Thank you!

[brisk lance]

I'd recommend avoiding most mods that haven't been updated since at least March 2024, by the way - especially ones that change how the game works. Some older mods will still work, but many won't.

Idk if I can get help here for SMAPI for android. But I'm having issue with just one mod which is virtual keyboard. I can't get the keys I add to show up on the keyboard when I load the game. it works properly there no errors for that mod. It just doesn't add keys when I edit the config in SMAPI. I went to YouTube to see if I was the problem. But the videos I have watch people were doing the exact same way and was able. To get the keys that they added to show up on the keyboard when the launch the game. Is there a specific way I'm suppose to add keys?

!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.

nobody active here uses mobile

It's more that the current Android ports of SMAPI are just that unstable right now due to all the Android changes under the hood

[marsh saffron]

iv downloaded again but not tried anything just yet

[jagged marsh]

Ok - Did you rename your Mods folder, or is this not sitting in your Mods yet?

And, if I could get a screenshot of the Mods folder with all of your other mods in it, please.

[jagged marsh]

(I think there might be a language / communication difference here, so I apologize if it sounds like I'm asking the same question)

So, in your Stardew Valley folder, there should be one specifically labeled "Mods", if so, please take a screenshot of it. If you've renamed the Mods folder to something else, please confirm.

my partner got me to make a new folder within the stardew valley folder and to call it Mods so i can remember where to put my future mods if i wanted to install others

[jagged marsh]

Ok - Can you go up to your Stardew Valley folder and take a screenshot so I can double check folder names? I want to make sure I'm walking you through putting them in the right spot if something custom was done

[jagged marsh]

Ok - So we want to be working in the folder labeled Mods because that's where SMAPI is going to look for mods.

Can you open that particular Mods folder and take a screenshot please.

[jagged marsh]

Ok - If you scroll down, is there a folder labeled Ridgeside Village?

[marsh saffron]

sorry was putting little one to bed, yes theres a folder called Ridgeside Village with the other mods

[jagged marsh]

Ok - Go ahead and delete that one since something is screwy with the folder structure. Then, open a second explorer window, and open the zip file for Ridgeside Village that you downloaded.

[marsh saffron]

do i unzip or just click open?

[jagged marsh]

For now, go ahead and open the Zip - You should see the folder labeled Ridgeside Village inside

Right click that folder, and hit Copy.

[marsh saffron]

ok

[marsh saffron]

done the copy

[jagged marsh]

Go back to your Mods folder, right click in an empty space, and paste it.

[marsh saffron]

ok, iv got a message pop up saying copying 2,664 items from Ridgeside Village

[jagged marsh]

Yup - give it time to move the files over - There's a lot of smaller files in there.

While you wait, you also want/need to grab https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10448

You're missing it as a prereq for East Scarp to work

[marsh saffron]

ok the files finished copying over and currently downloading the outdoor suggested, is the indoor one need also?

[jagged marsh]

Let me double check your mod folder and get back to you, one moment

[marsh saffron]

ok thank you

[jagged marsh]

Yeah - you're missing 3 more mods from East Scarp's dependencies - DaisyNiko's Tilesheets (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4736), Destroyable Bushes (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6304), Lumisteria Tilesheets - Indoors (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9599)

[marsh saffron]

ok got them

[jagged marsh]

Go ahead and copy them all to your Mods folder like you did for Ridgeside, and once they're done, launch the game and let's see what happens.

[marsh saffron]

do i need to use a mod launcher? because no smapi box came up when loading the game like normal

[jagged marsh]

Ok - How did you open it before when you got all the error messages? Because that was launching SMAPI.

If you're launching via Steam and it's not loading SMAPI, you're likely missing the launch option that tells it to use SMAPI instead (And it's an easy fix)

[marsh saffron]

Oh lol sorry I loaded it like normal, I usually use mod drop. The ridgeside errors are gone now I'm getting these. Would screen shot on PC but for some reason it won't show the text

[jagged marsh]

Yep - You're almost done. Scarp and Ridgeside are loading correctly now. Go back to your Mods folder and delete the following folders.

 TMXLoader
 ExtraMapLayers
 AntiSocialNPCs```

SAAT is out of date, ExtraMapLayers and AntisocialNPCs are both part of the base game, and TMXLoader is out of date.

[marsh saffron]

ok done

[jagged marsh]

Go ahead and launch, and you should hopefully have no more errors.

[marsh saffron]

its now saying 'these mods could not be added to your game. - Beatrice Festival Locations 1.0.0 because it requires mods which aren't installed (TMXL Map Toolkit)

[jagged marsh]

Go ahead and delete
Beatrice NPC
That's an ancient mod from 2020 and Beatrice has been fully integrated into East Scarp's install.

[marsh saffron]

deleted, i'll load up again and let you know

yay no more errors lol

[jagged marsh]

In which case, I think we've got everything sorted out for now. Enjoy your modded Stardew, Ridgeside and East Scarp are fun.

[marsh saffron]

i was enjoying it before the big update so played vanilla only, came back to play modded again once i completed vanilla and couldn't figure it out for the life of me how to sort the mods so put me off lol thank you so much for your help 🙂

[jagged marsh]

Ah - That explains some of the mods in your mod folder - A lot of stuff changed with Stardew 1.6 and mod lists from back in the days have a lot of issues.

If you're looking for new mods, stuff released from March 19, 2024 on was all designed for 1.6 - Older content mods may (and often do) still work, but some just aren't compatible with 1.6 (if you get errors when you try them)

[marsh saffron]

ah ok, well I'm glad I gave this a try. thank you again for the help I really appreciate it 🙂 welp back to getting lost in Stardew 😂

[jagged marsh]

No problem, that's what we're here for. If you run into more trouble, you know where to find us.

[dawn mesa]

How many mods can be added to the game at once? I have a bunch of mods I’m planning to add but I’m unsure if there’s a limit

[plush topaz]

the limit's your computer's specs

[gaunt gust]

I was about to make a joke about being able to run 30k mods off thr machines at work lol

[rigid mirage]

Hello friends, I am new to this server and to Stardew for PC. (Started playing on my Android phone). I followed a guide on transfering the save file over, but now I am getting this error. I havent been able to find much online, other than it may be a mod issue? Although, I don't think I used any mods? Any help would be really appreciated 😦

[jagged marsh]

If you're not using mods/SMAPI, this is probably a better question for #vanilla-tech-support - This channel is more focused on modding support

I'll look into your issue though

[rigid mirage]

Thank you, I will post it over there 🙂

[ancient monolith]

https://smapi.io/log/ca9960a409f6470186132e9b4f89d3b6 what kind of error with AT is this??

[native dragon]

Log Info: SMAPI 4.0.8 with SDV 1.6.8 build 24119 on Unix 6.6.31.2785, with 34 C# mods and 137 content packs.
Suggested fixes: One or more mods are out of date, consider updating them

[jagged marsh]

Linux user, based on the file paths?

Can you check whether the following directories exist/match?

/home/nvrlnd35/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Mods/AT MODS/[AT] Drink Water & Eat Frozen - Kettle and Microwave/Textures```

[ancient monolith]

They do! would i need to move them out of my AT folder into the main mods folder?

[jagged marsh]

I mean the error is that for whatever reason it can't find part of the filepath, yet you said the paths are there/exist. Moving them up to the Mods folder might change something, might not.

If you try to change directory right into the filepaths I gave (Copy/pasting them in), does it actually traverse to the directory?

[rancid sierra]

Anyone know what this is and how to close it? I don’t know what I pressed to open this and I don’t know if it’s a mod

[jagged marsh]

It's from a mod (I'm pretty sure), I don't know which one. Might be able to tell with a log listing your mods.

!log

is it possible to mod my game while playing through the xbox app? on pc but launching through xbox

[jagged marsh]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows

Scroll down to Xbox App and there are instructions

[boreal flicker]

you are an absolute legend

thanks so much

[ancient monolith]

Trying both options, it didnt seem to work at all

[jagged marsh]

I'm afraid I don't know then - haven't tinkered with AT too much so not sure why it's failing the filepath. Someone else might know

[ancient monolith]

Okay! thanks anyway Audri

[boreal flicker]

it says make a copy and name it stardew valley.exe is that refering to the copy or the original file?

[ancient monolith]

for anyone else, heres the newer log (with a few new cp issues 💔 )

[jagged marsh]

It wants you to rename Stardew Valley.exe to something else as a backup, then make a copy of StardewModdingAPI.exe. Rename the copy that you just created to Stardew Valley.exe

[boreal flicker]

okay thanks so much

[jagged marsh]

So the end result is you have a backup copy of Stardew Valley's EXE, the original SMAPI exe, and the copy that's pretending to be Stardew Valley

[boreal flicker]

it just gave me this

[jagged marsh]

Hmm. Can you take a screenshot of the folder with the Stardew Valley exe?

(I'm not super familiar with the xbox app, so I'm learning with you)

[eternal jay]

does someone know if i can add mods to an exisiting game file without it getting corrupted or smt like that?

[boreal flicker]

theres tons of files in the folder i cant fit them all into a screenshot

[jagged marsh]

Most mods can be added to an existing save file - Some are recommended against due to the fact you'll miss some content. Major ones like Stardew Valley Expanded, Ridgeside Village, East Scarp can be added mid save, though Stardew Valley Expanded will cause a bunch of maps to have bushes and trees out of place due to the maps they change (On an existing save file)

If you change farms mid-game, everything will be out of place based on their positions on the old map - Reset Terrain Features should help with this

[jagged marsh]

I just want to see the three EXEs

[boreal flicker]

ah ok

[eternal jay]

thank you

[jagged marsh]

Ah - Took me a few tries to figure it out - Rename StardewValley.exe to Stardew Valley.exe

You lost the space, so the xbox app is trying to launch a missing file

[boreal flicker]

now when i click play it doesnt do anything

wait no it does work a little smapi thing comes up and then stardew launches

thank you so much ive been trying to get this to work for days

[jagged marsh]

No problem - I'm glad I could help.

[native dragon]

@jagged marsh You leveled up to Shepherd. Wow, you've been talking a lot! Have a prettier, slightly more brag worthy, shade of blue.

[boreal flicker]

@jagged marsh sorry to be at you again i downloaded a recolour mod off of nexus mods, its downloaded a zip file and im not to sure what to do with it and i cant seem to find anything online

[jagged marsh]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Install_mods

There should be a Mods folder in your Stardew Valley folder that you can unzip mods into

You will need to unzip them though, SMAPI won't touch zips. And make sure you have any dependencies that the mod needs.

You'll know you're in the right folder when you see ConsoleCommands SaveBackup as those two mods come with SMAPI and shouldn't be deleted

[obtuse path]

I finished the community center using the CJB mod, but the game doesn’t recognize it as completed. What should I do?

[jagged marsh]

Did you sleep a night?

[obtuse path]

yes

[boreal flicker]

i dont have either of them in my stardew valley folder

[jagged marsh]

They should be in the Mods folder that should be in the same directory as StardewModdingAPI.exe

[jagged marsh]

What happens if you go look at the Community Center itself? Are all the bundles done inside?

[boreal flicker]

the first time i went into my stardew valley folder i went from desktop but this time i went through this pc and i found these folders

[obtuse path]

Yes, it appears fully decorated and with all the stars, but I can’t find Willy’s boat to repair it.

The door appears to be locked.

[jagged marsh]

Hmm - What day / year is it in game? Have you seen the teaser cutscene?

You should have a letter inviting you into the backroom

[obtuse path]

On the 14th of Winter.

A cutscene appeared, but I don’t remember when it was. I completed it a while ago and haven’t played for some time.

I also have 10 hearts with Willy.

[jagged marsh]

Hmm. Sounds like you've met the prereqs (unless cjb cheats broke progression) - You should have gotten a letter inviting you back there.

Honestly, #modded-stardew might be a better place to ask, this is a bit beyond tech support

[obtuse path]

Sure, thank you!

!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.

[gaunt gust]

!mpmod

Whatever

Match your mods with the person you're playing with

They have lunna, you don't

[tame sun]

does anyone know where to find the new file for the jam textures/artisan goods?

i'm planning my own private retexture mod and i know where it was before the update but can't seem to find it now, should be easier for me since all of the jams have individual textures now, just can't find the file

[gaunt gust]

Ask #making-mods-general

[tame sun]

ok will try that ty

[dire fractal]

Ohhh ok tysm!!! :D

Is there any other necessary mods i need to avoid a game crash that my friend has?

[gaunt gust]

All of them

You should have exactly matching mod lists

(There are a handful of exceptions but unless you really enjoy going through all the code of all the mods you use checking for multiplayer issues.)

[dire fractal]

Thank you 🙏 i’ll head on to download my friends mods 🫡

can someone link the latest ui info suite mod on nexus please i cant find it

hi i have a question about expanded preconditions mod it is saying its no longer compatible so i went to the site and downloaded the new one and the same warning popped up

how do i fix this

[sharp fossil]

It… hasn’t been updated for 1.6

I assume you mean EPU?

[raven kraken]

oh thats weird i thought it was because the smapi site said it was

[raven kraken]

yes that one

[sharp fossil]

It has not been updated for 1.6

[raven kraken]

so is there an unoffical one or what do i do?

[oak forum]

It has

[oak forum]

You need to download the one in optional files

[raven kraken]

how do i find this

[oak forum]

Files tab. The latest is actually the one listed in optional files NOT main files

[raven kraken]

oh ok thank you so much!

[sharp fossil]

Oh that’s my bad

I just saw the last updated bit

[oak forum]

No problem!

Hey is it possible to get mods on mobile? I wanted the UI mod since it's so helpful and I got started on this game 2 days ago loving it so far

[sudden summit]

!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.

[sudden summit]

basically, unfortunately not

[warm glen]

Very sad moment hopefully near future they can provide it

hello, im trying to download SMAPI but im not sure what to do next the steps are unclear on the wiki

[near terrace]

Hi! Could you show me a screenshot of your mod folder, and especially the SVE installation, because it says you're missing specific components of SVE

[near terrace]

Hi, what are you stuck with right now?

[strange isle]

it says I have installed and wants me to launch a game, but my game is on steam

i'm sorry if its a dumb question this is the first time i try doing this

[near terrace]

I'm not sure I follow - could you tell me which specific section of the getting started guide you're stuck on?

I'll get the guide open and walk you through it

[strange isle]

ok, I finished installing SMAPI

this what shows up for me (SMAPI is installed! Launch the game the same way as before to play with mods.)

do they want me to open stardew on steam?

[near terrace]

ah, I see

You want to do something on Steam first before you can play with mods

!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.

[knotty flax]

the flower one is the one with the mods

[near terrace]

What I want you to do is follow this guide I just linked above, and set your launch options for Stardew using the instructions in it. After that, launch the game through steam as usual

[strange isle]

Does the smapi look like a pufferfish chicken?

[near terrace]

I need to see what's inside the flower folder

yes

it looks like a pufferfish chicken

[strange isle]

Ayeee then I did it I think

[knotty flax]

Ah alrightt

[strange isle]

Now I gotta install mods

[strange isle]

Do I close my terminal?

[near terrace]

you did it! but please set your launch options to launch you game through steam as usual

[near terrace]

if you mean the terminal that says smapi is successfully installed, yes, you can close it

[strange isle]

Through the wiki thing u sent correct?

[near terrace]

yep!

if you get stuck, feel free to ask me for further help

[strange isle]

The %command doesn’t show up for me on my installer

[near terrace]

okay what I want you to do now is delete you SVE installation and install it again from scratch - do not delete any of the folders in the zip you get from Nexus, just drop the whole thing into your mods folder

[strange isle]

however something to note is that when i opened stardew on steam it auto copened the pufferfish chicken

[knotty flax]

like drop the whole compressed zip folder?

[near terrace]

you don't need to use %command% in the installer or anything, just in steam's launch options section

[near terrace]

oh then you're good, lol

install some mods and check back in with me if you can see them in game

[strange isle]

okkkk thank you so much :DDD

time to dive into what cool mods stardew has

[near terrace]

you'll need to extract everything that's in the zip, and then drop the unzipped contents into the mod folder

[near terrace]

check in at #modded-stardew and browse the images and links, lots of recs in there from people!
also check out #mod-showcase for even more mods

[strange isle]

a lot of the photos on the first channel are random, i dont see any mods

ok! tysm

[near terrace]

okay, now launch the game again and tell me if that error shows up this time

[knotty flax]

yay it workss!! thanks

[near terrace]

no problem, have fun!

[strange isle]

when i wanna download a mod it says i need something called a content patcher

should i download that as well?

[near terrace]

you do indeed need content patcher

[strange isle]

is this for all mods or just specific ones

[near terrace]

whenever a mod tells you it needs another thing - get the thing
on the description tab of a mod, there's a section called "requirements" that options a drop-down, which should have info on what is hard required and what is optional

[strange isle]

is it ok to have multiple mods downloaded

like does it still work

[near terrace]

content patcher is a framework mod - many, many mods require it to work

[near terrace]

as long as they don't change exactly the same thing - for example, you can't have two portrait mods unless they let you toggle characters on and off individually

[strange isle]

when i download it what should i do next

it shows me two files

[near terrace]

what are those two files?

do you mean content patcher or the other mod you wanted

[strange isle]

contentpatcher.dll and manifest.json

[near terrace]

you need both of those

the dll is the actual mod, the manifest is what smapi needs to load it in

[strange isle]

they wont open

[near terrace]

when you download mods, do not tamper with the files within the folder, just move the folder to the Mods folder and you're done

[strange isle]

it opened visual studio code

[near terrace]

you don't need to do anything else

[strange isle]

oh so i just keep them like that no need to open or anything?

[near terrace]

yeah you don't need to open them

smapi handles loading them

[strange isle]

cool cool perf then

[near terrace]

just make sure they're in your Mods folder within the game folder, is all

[strange isle]

how

i dont have a game folder im on ma

[near terrace]

move them to the folder

[strange isle]

mac

[near terrace]

you definitely have a game folder

[near terrace]

in steam, go to Stardew, click on the gear, mouse over manage, and hit browse local files

it'll show you where your game is installed on your disk

[strange isle]

ok it says contents

[near terrace]

do not do anything with the Content folder

[strange isle]

ok

[near terrace]

please show me a screenshot of what opened when you followed that instruction

[hasty flume]

mod recs/requests are more a #modded-stardew thing, this channel is for issues with mods you already have installed

[boreal crag]

oh sry

[near terrace]

okay, open that contents folder, and look inside. do you see a mods folder in there?

[strange isle]

i see a document, a macos folder and a resources folder

[near terrace]

(mb, I just saw the path for the game on mac and realised y'all have a slightly different folder setup, so I'm working with that now

[strange isle]

its okk tysm for your help

[near terrace]

righto, go into the macos folder

[strange isle]

opened, located themods folder

[near terrace]

there you go!

[strange isle]

what should i do with it?

[near terrace]

first things first - favourite it so it goes to your left sidebar for quick access. when installing mods, you need to download them from nexus, and unzip them into the mods folder.

[strange isle]

i dont have an option to favorite it T^T

i can add a tag to it

i think idk how tags work tbh

[near terrace]

click the mods folder and drag it to favourites

[strange isle]

there is no favorites

i dont think mac has a favorite option

[near terrace]

you see that top bit with airdrop etc on your left sidebar? that's the favourites section!

[near terrace]

https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/mac-help/mchl83c9e8b8/mac#:~:text=Add a folder or disk,item in the Favorites section. here, follow this

[strange isle]

ooo ok ok i just had to drag it there

sry mb

did that!!

[near terrace]

yay!

[strange isle]

should i drag the content file in there?

[near terrace]

now you can access it quickly when you want mods

[strange isle]

content patcher

[near terrace]

drag the content patcher folder to it, yes

and any other mod you install

[strange isle]

PERFECT

the file not the zip right?

[near terrace]

if you download a mod that just gives you a single file with the .xnb extension, delete it

yeah, not the zip

[strange isle]

what should i do with the zips

[near terrace]

all mods must be unzipped for smapi to read them

you can delete them when you're done extracting

[strange isle]

thats perfect omg

tysm

[near terrace]

have fun!

[strange isle]

how do i know if the mod is supported or not

[lean lantern]

dont like mining that much, what mod can i use for it?? halp

[near terrace]

good rule of thumb - if it's one solo .xnb file, with no manifest etc, don't use it
if it's from after March 2024, it'll work on the current version of the game
if it's from before March 2024, check the comments and mod description to see if it still works

[near terrace]

hi, check in at #modded-stardew , they'll probably have a rec for you!

[near terrace]

yeah you're good

[strange isle]

so im guessing it will hopefully work

[near terrace]

anything after march 2024 is fine, like i said

[strange isle]

wait how many files so i need to download for this what

[near terrace]

just download the latest release of smapi and any mods that it requires

you don't need stuff from the "mods requiring this file" section

[strange isle]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3753?tab=files

they have so many

[near terrace]

and yes, mods usually contain many files - especially if they're an expansion

every last file is important

[near terrace]

grab the first one

that's the actual expansion

[strange isle]

ok lemme import the animals replacements first

[near terrace]

everything else is optional add-ons

[strange isle]

so i dont need other files, i will still have access to the new caracters and stuff correct?

[hasty flume]

yes, thats correct. if you read the titles on the files, it'll give you an idea of what that file contains. in sve's case, there's one main file, two farm maps, grampleton fields, and some desktop wallpapers

[boreal crag]

how i can fix this

[hasty flume]

your recolour is probably outdated. check and see if it has an unoffical update, or if a similar one exists made for 1.6

[boreal crag]

oh crap

[hasty flume]

yeeeeep

anything before march 19 2024 runs the risk of not being fully compatible with 1.6

[west bane]

Hello guys. I was wondering if I could translate my game into a different language. I used this mod called StardewValleyTranslationHelper by coder0978 but it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

[boreal crag]

at least i found and hope its work

[boreal crag]

i need to check all my mods

noo

[hasty flume]

looks like that mod isnt a mod, its a developer tool that turns translated text into game code

[west bane]

Oh so can I use it translate my game directly ? or is there something I could do

[hasty flume]

it doesnt automatically translate the game for you, its a tool for translators that dont know how to code

[west bane]

Oh got it then any other way to put those translations into the game?

[hasty flume]

nothing can automatically translate your game for you. you need to either translate everything yourself, or find an already existing translation. what language are you wanting to play the game in?

[west bane]

Oh I'm willing to translate the game myself if I have to I just want to know what tool and what way. And the language is Hindi

I used the tool and translated all the quests and mails. Booted the game up and it didn't work so thats why im here

[hasty flume]

unfortunately, im not familiar with the tool in question, so i cant really help you navigate using it. i imagine whatever file if generates still needs to be added to the game, but your best bet is going to be looking in the tool's documentation

since it isnt a mod, we arent really equipped to help here

[strange isle]

what can i do

[west bane]

Oh thanks anyway

[hasty flume]

looks like you successfully installed smapi, so you can close the installer

[signal latch]

Hey all I got broken mods or something. How do I do this again, posting the thing? It's been a minute.

[covert patio]

Hi! I am having a slight issue with my stardew valley -
I am playing with Earthy recolor and there's a tile that isnt recolored as it should be, any idea how to fix/what conflict is at play there ?

With love,
Nate

[covert patio]

The broken mods you have are old mods that are not compatible/unupdated!

[bold locust]

what does advance patch mode do in Smapi mobile???

[signal latch]

Thank you

[covert patio]

I think you can use that instead!

okay i have a question, for mods that require configuring, when you update them, do you have to reconfig them?

[signal latch]

Help please. 👉 👈

[compact verge]

It would be helpful to search what's in conflict if you provide a SMAPI log.

[compact verge]

According to this log everything is working correctly. However, you don't have actually have any mod that change the appearance of buildings installed.

[timber frigate]

Yes

[compact verge]

Hello! I looked into this tool and it seems that everything should be completely automatic as long as you have SMAPI set-up. Have you installed SMAPI?

[tacit pendant]

Hi guys! My partner and I both have the same exact mods installed, we played together on our joint farm around two days ago. Today we both log in and @knotty flame attempts to host the farm as per usual, however, this time it won't give him an invite code and it doesn't show up in my list of existing co-op games even after refreshing several times. I looked at the code and for both of us it says '[game] Galaxy auth failure: FAILURE_REASON_UNDEFINED'

When he sent me an invite through steam to join, hoping that would help - it brought me to the menu with my character but when I tried to click on it, it said "This character belongs to someone else".

[cursive jewel]

bro i have the exact same problem

[sacred copper]

I'm getting the same error message but I'm playing single player

[compact verge]

Galaxy auth failure usually means that the multiplayer server (hosted by GOG) is down. It rarely has anything to do with mods and all we can do is to wait for it to go back up again.

[tacit pendant]

Thank you!

[sacred copper]

Ty!

[tacit pendant]

I just don't know a crazy ton about mods so I figured it was safer to ask! 😂

[cursive jewel]

thanks

[bitter escarp]

hello

When I try to open StardewModdingAPI it opens for a second and then closes

Mods don't work for me

[nova heart]

Errrrmmmm uh I have smapi and everything done correctly but it's not showing the mods uh

[bitter escarp]

I don't know what the problem is

The logs are as if you launched smapi but failed to reach the actual game

[compact verge]

That is still the same log as your previous one. You probably didn't open via SMAPI?

[nova heart]

how to..

[compact verge]

How did you launch the game?

[nova heart]

steam..?

[compact verge]

Have you put your SMAPI shortcut via Launch Options?

[nova heart]

I may or may NOT be an idiot

Bc

Uh

I think I'm an idiot

All i had to do was open with the shortcut I am SO sorry (⁠´⁠-⁠﹏⁠-⁠`⁠；⁠) pls forgive me

[compact verge]

[compact verge]

If you still want to open via Steam, you can go to your SDV Steam properties and put this "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%in the Launch Options.

(Copy that exactly with the " and the %command%)

!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.

[oak forum]

@cold goblet ^

Android SMAPI saat ini tidak berfungsi untuk versi SDV di atas 1.5.6.39. Kami tidak tahu apakah atau kapan akan dibuat kompatibel. Tidak mungkin menurunkan versi ke .39 melalui cara legal, jadi jangan tanya bagaimana caranya.

Dukungan mod untuk 1.5 di Android masih dalam tahap eksperimental, sehingga banyak mod yang rusak atau bermasalah. Hal ini sering kali merupakan sesuatu yang perlu diperbaiki oleh SMAPI, dan kami mungkin tidak dapat memberikan solusi.

[cold goblet]

I'm not using smapi though🥲

[paper spear]

Alright. So I have been experiencing lots of lag and stuttering at random moments. Profiler blames contentpatcher, but that does not really narrow it down much. As advised I am posting my smapi log here. My most recent one was one I closed while not loaded yet, so I loaded the game again and walked around a little (obviously now not experiencing any lag, lol) but maybe the other stuff is still usefull and anyone can tell me what might cause the lag. I have learned clearglasses can go as it is not doing what I thought, besides that no idea if any weird combos might be causing lag. Any help or suggestions is appreciated! (Except use less mods hahaha xD)

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.

[gaunt gust]

The two that pop out at me

1. Grep through your mods folder looking for TimeChanged

In general TimeChanged on map patches = bad

That autoforager mod is taking an insane amount of time

3. PlayerWarped I generally do not notice unless it goes above 250ms

[oak forum]

I also called the troubleshoot as it has some guidance to run on dedicated graphics card etc but PLEASE follow Atra's advice first

[gaunt gust]

It hides well in the loading screen

[paper spear]

Ah its not any of the standard stuff, I have already looked at that, I always thought its just too many mods, cause I couldnt really pinpoint an issue

[paper spear]

Huh, youre right, it normally doesnt. Thats weird. Let me see if starting it again it does the same

https://smapi.io/log/76b6538c64ff4b4b9585653d7958eaeb
Another version, less weird, bit more walking around (still not the big lag I normally have haha)
