I have been having this problem for months now and I truly have no idea what to do anymore, I've tried literally everything and it just comes and goes, it's never truly solved
#archived-modded-support
mossy kite
this has been going on since I changed my HD for a SSD, and some months later I realized I didn't have Java installed and that that might solve my problem with these mods. It did solve it for some time, but my game was really really laggy so I recently talked about that in #vanilla-tech-support and minerva told be to go on safe mode with my computer, which I think worked as a paleative for my problem of lagging, 'cause it was ok then.
but everytime I went some hours without playing and tried it again, it was still laggy, and I would just go in safe mode and back and it wouldn't lag anymore. So now I was going to play, I put my mods back on ('cause I had uninstalled them to see if it would solve the lag - it didn't) and I got the same error I've been having since february
It's just really anoying, I tried googling it to see if someone had the same problem and knew how to solve it but I found only 2 people with this and no one really helped them, so yeah idk what to do anymore

Yo peeps
I just wanna ask
If there is a 1.4.5 compatible Farm expander
Since My farm is a bit too tight
robust bison
if you want a bigger farm, there are several options
pastel scroll
Recommend me one?
robust bison
such as Immersive farm 2, immersive farm 2 remastered, and capitalist dream farm 2
pastel scroll
Thanks
@mossy kite Your files doesn't have a ddl
So it couldn't load
Or it crashed or something
robust bison
No, I think theyre there unless barbie manually deleted them all
its liikely a deeper issue
pastel scroll
Maybe the computer is the problem?
mossy kite
yep, they are here (just an example)
robust bison
just to confirm, those mods DO have the dlls right?
pastel scroll
She is on smapi 3.4....
robust bison
ok so the problem is deeper
robust bison
well then, thats probably an issue
mossy kite
I don't think it is really the reason
pastel scroll
That is the reason tho.
pastel scroll
The mods themselves need 3.5
mossy kite
because I have been having this problem for months now, and one day I uninstalled all my mods and my SMAPI, and manually installed the latest version of everything (which at the time was SMAPI 3.4)
and I still got the same problem
I spent hours doing this to have no problem solved
split patrol
does using CJB cheats menu to unlock minecarts cause any problems? might need to try that to solve my earlier issue
if anyone knows
robust bison
it shouldn't
pastel scroll
So?
mossy kite
i think i will just format (? idk if it's the right word) my computer and then install it all over again
pastel scroll
Did it work?
mossy kite
and see if i have the same problem
pastel scroll
No it doesn't have any problem @split patrol
mossy kite
this should take some hours tho so I'll let you guys know
robust bison

Try reinstalling .NET Framework 4.5.2 and XNA Framework 4.0 (see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_doesn.27t_launch for links).
split patrol
Ok thanks guys! that's gonna be my only solution lol
pastel scroll
@mossy kite why don't you go to the mod compatability list and see your problems over there?
pastel scroll
Hmm
mossy kite
specially cause all of my friends play with the exact same mods and even older versions of them and smapi
pastel scroll
Ima check
mossy kite
and they never had one single problem
pastel scroll
You can play older versions with older versions of smapi
Idk if the mods are fine tho..?
mossy kite
my friends never had problems
pastel scroll
I've searched half of your mods one by one
austere widget
I'm starting a new multiplayer farm and the person i am playing with doesnt have all the mods i have so will i be ok to just move all of my mods to a separate folder when playing on my multiplayer file and then just move them back when i play on my own?
pastel scroll
They all said to use the latest version which is 3.5.
No
You need reset terrain for that or something
When you play on your own it needs to be in an other file from the multiplayer one
@austere widget
austere widget
yeah i am starting a new save file for the multiplayer
austere widget
ok cool i just didnt wanna mess up the modded save file i already have because of my progress in SVE
pastel scroll
When you load the MP save you need to take out the mods
austere widget
so if i move it all back when i am playing alone it should go back to how it was ?
pastel scroll
Yes
austere widget
yeah thats what i have done . but i have left CJB item spawner
which is why im not just launching without SMAPI
pastel scroll
You can play with the same mods as your friend or something
But there will be Item differences
austere widget
ok cool
pastel scroll
And you will be able to walk through walls in the other's screen
But he/she will not be able to access
Ok cool

Any mod that would automatically kick a player if they are using Cheat mods?
robust bison
robust bison
not really any bug errors so far
silk plinth
it tells u to remove console commands tho ๐ฆ
robust bison
so it probably stilll works
fair vessel
Console commands is just one of the blacklisted mods it has by default. (Console Commands can be used to cheat for those who know how) You can make your own blacklist if you want.
Also it never affects the host player, they can have any mods installed that they want. It only polices farmhand mods.

Good mods. In combination with minera harder cc bundles where u can Pick ppja change the Game and makes it harder. Only if u like it

I like PPJA because its a mix and match of new content
more recipes, and such
more crops and trees
kind ore
I love how JA is just content patcher but with a focus on adding instead of replacing. The PPJA packs are weird to me because it's... just a selection of JA mods? I don't like most of them but I absolutely love some of them, just as with most mods because well.. they're just a random selection of mods.

Ppja too big for me,,, i get overwhelmed
cobalt tendon
I've only got a few installed. More Recipes, Fruits and Veggies, More Trees, Fresh Meat, and Artisan Valley
split patrol
I used deluxe autograbber to collect crops from Greenhouse i think
cobalt tendon
Meh... I may get rid of some of my convenience mods because now the game is too easy. Most days I don't even play because I got nothing to do anymore
But I have a huge greenhouse and its a pain to remember to harvest crops every day
split patrol
Same, i'm pretty sure the unofficial update to deluxe auto-grabber does it tho. might have to put multiple of them tho
speaking of ppja, is there a mod that adds more recipes but only using vanilla crops?
cobalt tendon
uhhh. I think there was one but I can't remember the name of it
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6048
This one adds a few but it requires Fresh Meat or Animal Husbandry
I don't think that one needs PPJA

I cheat but only to keep me fast, occassionally warp, move stuff between chests, occasionally stop time. I still take damage and lose energy and wont spawn items I need. I dont think I'd play the game at all if it was too easy.
Although I did end up with a brutal sword through a JA mod
tight tusk
same here, I once tried spawning all the items I needed and deleted that save file in just 1 season because it was so boring
outer turret
No thrill! Closed I get to that is code NPCs to give one to me cos rng sucka. Ie if u marry my char Jasper before you find all the dwarvish scrolls he will give you the rarest one
But also u need to speak dwarviah for his 14 heart event (well not need to but it will make it more interesting)

@robust bison You literally saved my soul. Thank you so much.

ive cheated in items because they were needed but weren't spawning even after quite a long time
tight tusk
can't wait for jasper to get released!
naive drum
also cheated in bigcraftables in an MP session after we loaded up the game to find all our JA bigcraftables had bugged out
two of them became statues, one became a tub of flowers, and the rest just had their sprites break and picking them up crashed the game
delicate garden
How'd that happen? SMAPI mod with hard coded ID's?
I had craftable legendary fish mounts but had a JA mod I made look like it because if hard coded ID's so had to remove

K so this is my current error https://smapi.io/log/df69da93ee02419197eb6fd1740e7004 Should I just try to verify game files or something to fix this (still relatively the same error) Also the game works normally without smapi
delicate garden
Can people bypass the AntiCheat by changing the UniqueID in the manifest for any of the cheating mods?
@winter briar
If the mod blocks based in uniqueID's in a blacklist it's likely they could. I don't have an answer for you just would be interested to know if you test it yourself
https://github.com/funny-snek/anticheat-and-servercode/blob/master/Server/mod-blacklist.json
Looks like it
Also may want to add No Clip mode yourself I noticed it's not in that list
winter briar
Confirmed that if you change the UniqueID, it literally bypasses the whole thing
That's kind of dumb.
pastel arch
Yep - there's no way to completely ensure people aren't using mods you don't want them to use. That mod just makes it a bit more difficult, which works well for the vast majority of people who won't try to circumvent it.
fair vessel
Yeah. In order to make a foolproof anticheat you would probably have to have smapi implement some sort of verification hash system(??) that ID'd the contents of mod folders to ensure they matched the published version and uniqueID reported in the manifest file...
delicate garden
The mod could use whitelist not blacklist but even then people could just install cheat mod and change unique ID to allowed.mod
fair vessel
Or I guess you wouldn't have to have smapi do it, you could do it within your own mod. But then it would need to be installed by farmhands too, and you'd want to make it closed source if you didn't want people compiling cheatable versions of the anti-cheat mod to bypass the checks 
Sounds to me like a lot of work with very little payoff.
delicate garden
Filehashes could be circumvented (not as easily as changing unique ID) so like you say, lots off work with very little payoff
Also everytime a cheat mod legitimately updates, it's hash would change so the anticheat mod would have to update too. Would be so hard to keep up with
fair vessel
Ah you'd do it with whitelist rather than blacklist, though.
winter briar
MTN was originally adding a type of anti-cheat system iirc but it never was implemented
You're honestly better doing it with Blacklist because if they don't know you have the Anti-Cheat, they could get identified by it and you would know faster.
If they were smart, they could simply rename the cheat manifest to a mod from the allowed list.
fair vessel
Maybe even use the host player's own mods' hash data rather than trying to stay updated on latest published mods.
winter briar
Can't it be possible for the mod to check the parent folder for any mods that may fall under the folder category? or at least check all the parent folders' contents for any giveaways?
fair vessel
It works as long as host/farmhands always have identical mods down to optional files and update versions
...That would actually serve the dual purpose of providing a check that players all had the same versions of all mods, and help prevent rare crashes due to being out of sync
winter briar
I don't know how to code, but I know LUA itself can do that. Not sure about this game's code though.
delicate garden
Ah you'd do it with whitelist rather than blacklist, though.
@fair vessel then everytime a whitelisted mod updates the anticheat would have to update it's whitelist :P
fair vessel
I'm saying don't hardcode or provide the whitelist with the mod. Make it generate based on the host's currently installed mods
delicate garden
Ah right and then compare to the clients
fair vessel
You could have a config where the host adds exceptions "yeah I have CJB installed in case of bugs/glitches but I don't want that one whitelisted thanks"
delicate garden
Smart would just have to base if on manifest files so config changes wouldn't break it
winter briar
Why not make it so it has to read off of like a Nexus file code or something? Something that cannot be modified by the file?
delicate garden
Everything can be modified once you locally have the file?
winter briar
Dlls can be modified by a hex editor and Json by Notepad
Changing the manifest is literally the easiest thing.
delicate garden
Everything can be modified so blacklist could never be 100%
fair vessel
Might also want to make config omission a configurable thing.
Like some mods personal config values might make sense (Better Sort is a great example), but others changing the config could be seen as the difference between cheating and not cheating (e.g. Tractor mod combat mode, summons, etc)
pastel arch
Even with enforcement in SMAPI, you could compile your own modified version of SMAPI to circumvent restrictions.
winter briar
The harder it is to bypass, the more people can be identified.
Doesn't need to be 100%
delicate garden
...That would actually serve the dual purpose of providing a check that players all had the same versions of all mods, and help prevent rare crashes due to being out of sync
@fair vessel my partner and my other devices all have the mods kept in OneDrive then use a directory junction to natively point SMAPI at it (not that necessary just handy) works well
fair vessel
Oh that's smart
delicate garden
Also keeps my saves backed up and cross device
Doesn't need to be 100%
@winter briar I think the problem is since it can't be 100% no one will put a huge amount of effort into making the mod
winter briar
Then the community will always be questionable of people when they're hosting and letting others join.
That's not healthy.
Would be nicer if the host only needed the mods and not the entire server.
And wouldn't register clients' mods.
Would be a pain to write all the code, but if it was added to the game as a core, it probably would make the mods way easier.
fair vessel
People who use a lot of aesthetic mods would be sad though
fair vessel
But then everyone stuck with the same aesthetics
winter briar
Its better that way than someone cheating on your server while they bypass a anticheat wall.
delicate garden
I've never really seen SV as a "server" game more of a peer to peer didn't realise there were people that used it that way so heavily. You should open an issue in mod-ideas and maybe someone will pick it up
robust bison
then everyone would have to use the same ones
of course, theres always xnb modding, but...
shivers
delicate garden
It's on the pins
winter briar
What if there was a mod that would read people's mods listed to show the host in the console? That could work.
fair vessel
That's essentially what the existing anti-cheat does, but it also checks already
What is shown in the console depends on the manifest
delicate garden
Since SMAPI doesn't have it built in that's kinda what the anticheat client does, then the anticheat host does the extra stuff
winter briar
No no no, I mean it lists the mods the other user is using.
It sends the list to the host of all the mods they have turned on.
Not the ones it's scanning for to remove.
torpid jay
I'm using Custom Walls and Floors Depot and I can't switch my floors to anything from vanilla?
delicate garden
The client has to opt in to send that to the host, host can't pull that info without a client mod
ashen elbow
custom walls and floors does that
it layers over the original wall
so you have to be careful
torpid jay
how do i fix it
ashen elbow
idk,, there isnt really a way
split patrol
Sometimes using the command reset_walls will fix it if itโs in the farm house
IIRC
winged burrow
while using mods, does the achievements still transfer to steam?
ashen elbow

fresh inlet
You would have to go to ( in steam ) Properties > Set Launch Options > Then put the following in:

ashen elbow
yeah you have to run the sdv modding api
winged burrow
but i use a shortcut to smapi from my desktop

Some mods do stuff if its loaded. I dont think those errors will break your game though?
BFAV is unreliable.

okay so my log keeps telling me more trees is a XNB file or at least not smapi but ive had it installed before and worked fine and i looked through the mod files and there are no xnb files and there are jsons and pngs and a manifest and it all looks fine so wtf it literally is stopping so many mods from loading https://smapi.io/log/c794d15f5b7b4305999d3ebbb8e3cddd
yes i have a lot of mods to update i havent played in ages

Broken or missing manifest? Some other file above it in the folder?

manifest looks fine

Show us the folder top level
If theres a readme above more trees it will confuse smapi.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know if Community Center Bundle Tooltip works with mods that change the items (like variety or harder bundles)? I checked the mod's comments and no one specified https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1329
shy orbit
it does work
royal arrow
Awesome, thank you Vibel! Now I just have to find a working update for the bundle overhaul mod that stole my heart

the item tooltip doesn't show for items with prefixes though, but that's not related to modded bundles

This is a noob question, but how do I use the config options for mods on PC?
can i use mods on a multiplayer server if my friends aren't using them :O
kind musk
What do you do with .7z files?
I only used .zip before, and my computer can automatically extract those
@dire fractal you can, but most of them will only affect your game
shy orbit
@dire fractal typically by editing a config.json file that is in the mod folder for the mod in question
@kind musk 7-zip program can extract .7z files
dire fractal
๐ค
Whenever I try and select those file I get "unable to find the software to open this file"
Do I need to download a different software so I can edit the config files?

I'm having a lot of issues with the stardew expanded mod- it worked the first time no problem, but i got off for an hour and came back on and just got a whole bunch of errors, nd anytime i opened up the game it'd just crash. Removed it and reinstalled it, and now it'll load into the game correctly without crashing, but it says the mod is invalid, and won't let me play using it
Anyone got any solutions haha

Hi tinasina! First I recommend updating your mods to the latest version. Those which require updates are listed at the top of the log with convenient links.
Next is the first block of red text, Skipped mods:
-You have an old version of FeTK, so you should update that as well.
-the messages saying "assets" and "content" couldn't be added because they're not SMAPI mods indicate you may have XNB mods in your Mods folder, look for folders with those names to make sure you remove those. You can check if there's a CP conversion in here https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher
-I'm not sure about Custom Farming Automate Bridge 2.12.9, I recommend looking it up in https://smapi.io/mods to see if it's still compatible
-"DeluxeGrabber 2.5.1 because it's no longer compatible. Please check for a new version at https://smapi.io/mods" go to that link and search for Deluxe AutoGrabber to see where you can get an unofficial update for it
-it doesn't look like you properly installed Experience Bars, I recommend checking that
-"HPBar 1.3.1 because it's no longer compatible. Please check for a new version at https://smapi.io/mods" go to that link to see if there's an unofficial update or an alternative
-I'm not sure about IdleTimer 1.0.1
-"PurchasableRecipes 1.0.0 because it's no longer compatible. Please check for a new version at https://smapi.io/mods" go to that link to see if there's an unofficial update or alternative
-I'm not sure about Sauvignon in Stardew 1.9.0
-"Walk to Garden Village 1.0.0 because it requires mods which aren't installed (Tarniyar.TMX.GardenVillage)." be sure to install all the dependencies for Walk to Garden Village. You can check and mod's page to see what's required
Once you've done all of that, try loading the save again and if you have issues, post a new log

distant tundra
Hi guys, I am curious about how to maybe make a config? I am trying to turn off the recolors of Starblue in the Stardew Expanded folder
fresh inlet
There should already be a config file generated in the folder if youโve launched the game with the mod at least once
distant tundra
There is one coming up but no options to turn off the recolor. only for the defaults
rain lava
and why do you want to disable the recolor?
distant tundra
im trying to use DustBeauty's seasonal fences
they arent showing up since the recolor
rain lava
so it's because of starblue or because of SVE?
I think SVE changes only fences that are static/non player placed. So most likely Starblue is overwritting Hesper's ones
distant tundra
I am assuming it is the Starblue recolor folder within the SVE folder but not sure
rain lava
I'll see. gimme a minute
distant tundra
thanks Gwen T.T
rain lava
Try replacing manifest.json inside [CP] Seasonal Fences with this one. If starblue was overwritting the fences this should fix it
distant tundra
I assume you created a dependency for it?
rain lava
yup
distant tundra
grrr not it
rain lava
should we try dependency for SVE?

yeah I know about that one but that has nothing to do with the fencing
rain lava
screen of the fence so i know how they look like now
rain lava
ooooh, here we goooo xD
the fences on the screenshot are the ones added by SVE so they won't be changed by Hesper's seasonal fences cx You'll have to find and change the fences somewhere inside SVE assets
distant tundra
right that is where the recolors are

So you have to copy/paste the fences ( remember to name them same as orygial ones ) inside SVE assets. I don't know if they will work properly so just in case backup orygialns somewhere

@grand moss your setup and prerequisites look good, but there's not much to go off in the log. What do you see when you go South down to the cindersap forest? There should be a new NPC house there and a exit in the southeast of the map to a new map area.
If you check those and they're not there, upload and share your new log from doing that please.

ashen elbow
but you still need to fix those issues first
royal arrow
Once you've tried that, and removed whatever mods don't have alternatives or unofficial updates, try it again and see what your new log is. A good move is also to update all your mods that need updates, which are listed at the top of the log with convenient links
grizzled oracle
im regretting downloading this many mods .-.
royal arrow
Lol it comes with the territory. Also note you may need to rely on checking the date downloaded / date updated, because sometimes mod authors don't update the version number in their mod's manifest.json, so you may see a mod listed as "needs an update" even though you're sure you already did it. In those cases, verify with the date downloaded / date updated
grizzled oracle
i fixed all the red text except custom farming automate bridge i can't find it

CFR is also no longer recommended due to its numerous bugs and an alternative being released. PFM is what we migrated to. It's unsure with PFM being out if CFR will be maintained again.
royal arrow
That's what I'd gathered, but I've heard of people running both CFR and PFM at the same time, which surprised me. I didn't think they would play well together
keen moss
You can. Some older mods aren't updated to PFM but there was an effort to convert all known/released CFR mods to PFM.
It's just a matter of remembering which machines are CFR and which are PFM when playing ๐
shell jackal
Hi Para.
keen moss
Hiya
grizzled oracle
if i remove CFR will those machines still work with automate tho?
keen moss
If you remove CFR you'll be removing the CFR machines so no.
grizzled oracle
i mean CFAutomate
keen moss
No. CFAutomate lets CFR machines work with Automate
They don't work with it out of the box
grizzled oracle
So PFM does not support CF machines?
keen moss
PFM is a completely different framework
For PFM to work with Automate you'll need PFMAutomate

so this is the new patch summary log: https://smapi.io/log/5190925c9f9f4b5b8ef5d69db69d8244
My issue is specific to the fact that the mod is supposed to change the map and tiles. I'm seeing a change in the colour, residents and added images but the town itself is the same, it doesn't look like the 'ghost town' as the original mod indicates it should

I am struggling between Strawberry Fields Farm (aesthetics, much wow) and Farm Extended (more functionality, not so wow aesthetics, but many of the cherry blossom trees) for my next farm I: Uber voted 2/3 for Strawberry Fields, but he's a robot with no logic well feelings.

tawny kindle
a lot of those functions could be ported over to Strawberry Fields, if you want to tweak the FTM pack~
(also remember to grab the updates from FTM's page, Farm Extended is pretty old)
though you might need to spawn ore in one of those fields if anything, for lack of a specific quarry
silk plinth
a really good in between for both of those maps is Capitalist Dream Farm 2
its a bit big, but it has the fancy functionality of farm extended and it has the same classic daisyniko charm as strawberry fields
royal arrow
Yes, yes...maybe that'll be my next future project, Esca! Since I've just started dabbling in Tiled.
Capitalist Dream Farm 2 is bigger, I'm actually trying to downsize a tad after using the first Capitalist Dream Farm for a while and feeling a bit overwhelmed, and Ali's Flower Farm felt too a bit small. I'm being a goldilocks about it, I know

@fair vessel here is the host's log
https://smapi.io/log/62c073037ae1439a8d5c799cba7aee2d

Ooof. I dunno. There's a game save error with MTN, but I don't know if that could be related. Can you share one of the farmhand logs too?
Stardew Valley Expanded? Sorry that took so long I wanted t get the name right
@dire fractal That one is best to use on a new save for a few reasons. One reason is it adds new heart events and content that you & friends will miss out on if you already have too many hearts with certain characters or have seen their 10-heart events.
The other main reason is that to use it on an existing save, you will need to use Reset Terrain Features to clear out bushes and things that will be in troublesome locations on the new maps it uses. This especially includes the IF2R farm map if you're using it.
tribal cypress
sure just a second (mine will be filled with errors xD)
here you go @fair vessel
dire fractal
@fair vessel Thanks! In that case I think we'll just start a new save cause we've almost completed vanilla SDV
tribal cypress
I removed a couple of portraits to keep just the one I like, so you will see a couple errors in it
fair vessel
Probably a good idea! You can do some research and stack up the new game with a bunch of QoL mods too while you're at it
tribal cypress
it seems NPC map locations release an update yesterday to fix this issue. Not sure if it will fix them missing on festivals
fair vessel
@tribal cypress for a start, I'm seeing several mods that you have installed and the host does not. Immersive Farm 2 Remastered is probably the most troublesome. I don't know about the others. Mods that add aesthetic changes only are usually fine, but I'm not sure about things like catgifts and friends forever (they might not break things, but they probably won't work right unless the host has installed them too)
tribal cypress
Oh yes that too
We aren't playing on the immersive farm 2 tho
Also we have another player with the same issue and he has the exact same list of mods as the host
fair vessel
Hmm.
So more info, does the host see the SVE NPCs walking around their usual routines? And when farmhands go to that location the NPC is just invisible?
What about locations - can farmhands still go inside Victor & Olivia's house for example?
tribal cypress
Everything is perfect for the host. We, farmhadns, can't see their icons on map and they are invisible during festivals. However we can see them walking their daily routine.
fair vessel
Oh well that's all normal then, like I said, it's a known bug for all custom NPCs added by any mod.
Another little-known fact is that farmhands don't get friendship points for talking to custom NPCs ๐ฆ Gifts still work, at least.
tribal cypress
Aw ;-;
fair vessel
Yeah it's disappointing
The biggest and most important bug though, make sure you're aware:
DO NOT MARRY a custom NPC if you are a farmhand!!!!
tribal cypress
I wanted to marry sophia :c

It will crash the game. It's not fixable. You have to revert to an old savefile from at least 3 days prior

keen moss
@keen apex Uninstalling any PFM mod improperly can break your save which is why you need to follow the uninstall instructions. Improper uninstallation will also scramble your IDs which sounds like what also happened. You can try reverting to a save backup. Sometimes you can get lucky and remove the machines without the game crashing but it's tricky.

my bf started the farm so when i was having issues he just kept playing while i tried to fix them - how can i get to a old save if i just joined a farm?
cobalt tendon
where the pfm uninstall guide
its not on the page...
I wanna get rid of a couple of my PPJA mods but I wanna do it properly
outer urchin
PFM is producers framework and JA Is Jason assets right ?
anyone knows the link to uhm , the fresh meat mod ?
it seems like im also missing it
cobalt tendon
outer urchin
is there an update to look up anything for SVE ?
cuz i have SVE on
animal husbandry and fresh meat mod , do they conflict each other ?
or do they work just fine with one another ?
cobalt tendon
They both do the same thing. They don't conflict per se, but Fresh Meat is "more humane" than husbandry
outer urchin
aight
cobalt tendon
You don't need both. One or the other
outer urchin
as long as they work just as fine
well one of my mods need uhh.
the fresh meat
but i guess i can delete animal husbandry
keen moss
They do different things. Fresh Meat was made when Animal Husbandry was "Butcher Mod" and focused on butchering but AH has since expanded.
So if you just want meat one or the other but if you want to expand upon that AH or both would be the way to go.

with SVE add on

Hello, could I get some help with a SMAPI crash log?
robust bison
sure

I just updated the NPC map mod as a new version just came out yesterday
The other ones it's showing to update, the "newer" versions are simply alternative versions
fresh inlet
then they forgot to update their manifest then..?
spare pollen
Sorry, I didn't update the log or try it after updating that mod, that's on me
fresh inlet
Ah
spare pollen
I'm still in the phase of testing mods, I was testing the relationship path with the Harvest Goddess mod, and essentially everything was fine until I finished the 10 heart event, now any time I sleep it crashes
But on another save file it crashes as well, but I chocked that up to it being an old unmodded savefile just disagreeing with everything
Here's an updated log, it still crashed after the update, I figured it wasn't the map
Could "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." help understand what's going wrong?

stray zephyr
wheres the best place to find mods to install with smapi? or are they already in the launcher?
ashen elbow
you look on nexusmods
stray zephyr
specifically texture packs
ok ty
does the version you download matter? straight from nexus or on thee link provided?
ashen elbow
what do you mean?
stray zephyr
direct download or straight form nexus?
ashen elbow
you want the latest version of smapi, which is 3.5.0
stray zephyr
just wondering if it matters ffor installinggg mods later

So I have the Friends Forever mod, but when I skipped a season or two with CJB Time Skipper, I lost like 5 hearts with my roomie Krobus. Why?
fair vessel
It's possible that the way Friends Forever intervenes to prevent decay isn't possible with the way BJS Time Skipper cycles through days

Bump for help
@spare pollen
Hi Nero, could you provide more details, for example, where you were and what you were doing in game when the crash occurred? Also, I see you have some mods that require updates, specifically TMX related ones, and some of the errors seem to be related to warps. Have you updated those mods?
spare pollen
@royal arrow Can I DM you so I can go into detail?
royal arrow
I'm not the biggest expert here, I just know if you provide detail, we might be able to help
ashen elbow
you can just ask here
spare pollen
I provided details earlier
ashen elbow
well, maybe post again??
royal arrow
Can you quote those messages then, so they're visible again? There might be different people online now than when you originally posted
spare pollen
I've gotten to point where when I sleep, it crashes before reaching saving

ashen elbow
hmm,, try removing the harvest goddess mod,, and if it doesnt crash,, then it might be a problem with the mod
spare pollen
I just removed all my mods besides things like SMAPI, Content Patcher, modding tools and it still crashed
royal arrow
Right and you can also test removing everything BUT the harvest goddess mod, and seeing if the crash still happens (in case it's happening due to a mod conflict). In either case, it looks like it might be a bug with the harvest goddess mod.
Which you can report to the mod author
ashen elbow
yeah
spare pollen
I thought that at first too, but on save files that have never touched that mod, or any mod, still crash
ashen elbow
yeah,, but its the same
spare pollen
The only thing I've yet to try is to revert some changes, since I had to replace some .xnb's for some portrait mod, no version of it worked with content patcher and literally couldn't find any other
royal arrow
To clarify: you're getting the crash regardless of whether you have or not you have the mod installed?
ashen elbow
oh , yeah that might break it
royal arrow
Ohhh
spare pollen
Yes
royal arrow
!xnb
native dragonBOT
XNB mods often break the game and are not recommended. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods for more info (and a list of Content Patcher alternatives), and https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files to fix problems caused by XNB mods. For mod creators, see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).
ashen elbow
portrait mods rely on portraiture,, not CP\
spare pollen
I didn't see any other portrait mods on nexus, is the weird thing
ashen elbow
what mod was it?
ashen elbow
nfhg
royal arrow
Did you look it up in https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods to see if there's a CP alternative?
spare pollen
Super unoptimized files I can tell
ashen elbow
its outdated
spare pollen
I know, but like I said, for some reason it was the only one I could find?
ashen elbow
there are other portrait mods on nexus
royal arrow
See my link above.
If you're searching for portrait mods and you're not seeing any on nexus, you may have weird filters that are blocking the results. Unless you're looking for something specific
spare pollen
No Lenne, when I was adding all the mods it was my first time trying mods and I was doing ALOT of mods
And yeah now that I'm actually typing "portrait" into the search bar i'm actually seeing them
ashen elbow
first of all,, remove the xnb mods,
fallen gyro
@ashen elbow LOL you were right, the marriage mod happened to make him an anime boy
ashen elbow
you can do that by verifying the game integrity
spare pollen
I think before I was trying to set the filters to "Characters" or something
fallen gyro
he looked 12 it was awful
native dragonBOT
See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! You may also want to check this list of XNB > Content Patcher conversions (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher) to see if there are already replacements for any XNB mods you may have been using :)
spare pollen
I kept multiple back ups of all the files just in case, so I'm not worried about losing anything
royal arrow
Nero, you can just search within Stardew Valley on nexus, because people categorize mods differently. Like I've found farm maps under maps but also under locations
ashen elbow
ah
fallen gyro
there was a file named "therapy characters" and im just [touches dirt...] something terrible happened here
ashen elbow
NFhgnd
spare pollen
Okay looks like I also found a smapi CP replacement for another xnb thing, so I'll reset all the xnbs and try that, and try the other portrait things
Thanks for the help @ashen elbow and @royal arrow
ashen elbow
ok
spare pollen
Verified, gonna test real quick and see if the crash doesn't happen with and without the regular mods
outer turret
In that anime mod Jas looks the same age as Penny (ie very young!)
spare pollen
I figured the xnbs could cause issues but since I for some reason couldn't find an alternative (in my very tired state) I just decided to brute force it and see what happens
@outer turret Yeah I wasn't a fan of all of the portraits, I think Caroline's was my favorite though
royal arrow
Also, casual plug for Seasonal Villager Outfits (SVO). It doesn't redo the portraits so much as give the villagers, well, different outfits based on the seasons, both for the sprite and the portrait. I'm a fan, hence the plug 
robust bison
just came back, are you looking for a CP version of ohodavis portraits?
spare pollen
Yeah I saw that one Lenne, it was nice
Ummm I'm probably gonna look through all the different portrait mods now that I can actually find them Arcane. Does an up to date one exist? There's an outdated one on that page that doesn't work completely
robust bison
there was an unnoficial conversion I think
spare pollen
Ah I see, I'll shop around a bit lol
robust bison
spare pollen
Yeah looks like that one works a bit differently still, not just drag and drop into the mods folder, unless that's how all portrait mods work?
Says to put them in the /assets/portraits folder like I did with the xnbs
royal arrow
They're saying to download the original mod, and place the CP files into the original mod's assets / portraits folder
spare pollen
Oh okay I see, the wording was a little weird
Maybe I'll do that to pick and choose certain ones I want later
I want to start a modded playthrough but I've just been testing mods for the last 5 days lol
royal arrow
As the kids say, mood
I've spent entire days, countless hours, just setting everything up and testing everything that by the time I get to actually gaming, I'm over it lol
spare pollen
Lol, I just don't want to get like really far in a playthrough then suddenly something goes horribly wrong
Like with that save file I was testing the harvest goddess in, it was working perfectly fine until it basically reached the end
Luckily it seems like SMAPI makes it pretty easy not to lose an entire save over a mod screwing up
royal arrow
I mean, I've had it happen with Skyrim. That's just when you throw it away and start a new playthrough lol
I just had it happen with my latest collection of mods for SDV, though it was "meh this isn't fun" rather than "something is broken." so, new mods!
spare pollen
Granted I'm the kind of guy that starts a new playthrough CONSTANTLY, just to try something else or have different characters specialized in things
I have started more Bloodborne characters than I'd like to admit
The mood when you're sitting there considering starting all over for no reason

I am a bit scared lol

I meant like last time I played sdv I had so many mods and now all my mods are gone and I can vaguely remember what ones I used
ashen elbow

royal arrow
Rely on your download history on nexus D: ?
ashen elbow
yeah that would be helpful tbh
royal arrow
Also, you know, trial and error. If your save really needed it, SMAPI will tell you IN BIG RED LETTERS
ashen elbow
helped me out
spare pollen
Speaking of Nexus, what does the "2mb limit" mean? Does it mean like a collective total on my account or just files that are over 2mb individually
royal arrow
Individual files
dire fractal
is the "penny expanded" mod a cp mod ?
spare pollen
Okay good, when I saw that I was like "I swear if this stops me before I finish getting everything I want I'm gonna piledrive this website"
royal arrow
There's an unofficial CP conversion, I've uh, actually linked to it in that mod's comments 
(did not make it, just linked it)
spare pollen
Lenne with the black market moves
dire fractal
how is moddrop ?
royal arrow
I've only used the site once, it was fine lol but I know it also has a mod manager
ashen elbow
idk about moddrop
dire fractal
Basically I just needed a mod manager cus it was taxing to update so many mods
like I wanna manage mods of sdv cus I probably will be using like 50-60 of them
a question
why is vortex not advisable ?
ashen elbow
it funky
royal arrow
I've heard of people having trouble finding config files and such while using it
dire fractal
I see
does anyone know of the penny mod where she had a blue outfit and long hair ?
ashen elbow
i have no idea
dire fractal
yeah
I just wished someone could update this penny sprite sheet
is it difficult ?
ashen elbow
i could do that for you,,
