[royal oyster]

Apologies if this has been asked before,

we are currently playing multiplayer and looking for a mod where we can increase our farm size on an existing save

Anyone able to help out here

[shell jackal]

I use Ace's maps. Has some really large maps

[royal oyster]

Does this work with existing multiplayer saves though, we are at year 2 and dont particularly feel like restarting

[shell jackal]

They should, yes. Though you might end up with stuff in unreachable places, no matter what map you choose

These are them, in case you want to take a look. https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/988

They are updated for 1.5, if you are on PC. I think there's a specific download for mobile as well

[royal oyster]

Awesome, if there are unreachable places i can just Robin to move stuff. or the save editor right?

[#4974] "Switching to a custom farm map can be done, but you'll need to do extra steps in order to make sure you don't have buildings / items in the void, or not properly lined up.

1. Grab Reset Terrain Features and Noclip Mode to set you up, and Crop Transplant Mod for a way to move your crops and trees.
2. Before you install the new map, you'll need to remove all machines / chests / etc. on your map. You can store them in a chest, preferably inside your farmhouse or barns /coops / sheds.
3. Go to Robin and move any buildings you have as close to the farmhouse as possible. Save before going to the next step.
4. Add the new map mod (ensure it replaces the farm type you're using, i.e. Standard, Riverland, Hilltop, or Wilderness), and you'll spend some time moving everything to a proper place.
   You can use Reset Terrain Features to reset the bushes, trees, and other debris.
   Noclip Mode will help you reach any things that ended up in the void or an invalid tile.
   Crop Transplant Mod lets you move crops and trees, and it's highly configurable, so you can move full grown trees, if you toggle that feature on." - @royal arrow (04 Aug 2020 @ 08:26:10 PM UTC)

I get here just in time

[shell jackal]

That works. xD

[royal oyster]

You my friend, are awesome 🙂

[main ingot]

also guys i need advice: shie kind of fell off the face of the planet on all of their socials and i was trying to get their permission to upload modified portraits of theirs (to go along with LfL) but they havent responded to me T__T do i just not upload it at all then ...

[royal arrow]

ye unfortunately if they require explicit permission be given then I'd advise not to upload

[main ingot]

other people have uploaded modified portraits of shie's (presumably with her permission) so im just like. huhehr

[royal arrow]

oh

[main ingot]

some of them say they explicitly asked shie but others didnt mention it

[royal arrow]

does shie have anything written anywhere about permissions?

[main ingot]

mmhm

[royal arrow]

unsure if that's affirmative or negative o.o

[main ingot]

sorry i was grabbing the ss lmao

so upload permission is granted but modification perms... make me go ?__?

[royal arrow]

ye they say to request permission to modify, and note that there are assets from other authors. So if you're erring on the safe side, you shouldn't upload your modified portraits without explicit permission

[main ingot]

hm. okay

ill just pray she replies then 😂

thanks for the advice

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8282?tab=description this person didnt mention asking so im

i dont wanna be that guy tho (also these are really good wow)

i have messaged mizz shie on twitter

[dire fractal]

also, what's up with all of minerva's mods no longer being on nexus and instead all being on their private blog/moddrop?

[main ingot]

i dont remember what that situation was exactly riley, but its been that way for a bit

[dire fractal]

i haven't been active for a while, so I'm unaware of anything that's been going on in regards to SDV

[royal arrow]

Minerva had issues with Nexus and permissions so their mods are on other places

[shell jackal]

Others are migrating as well

[heady locust]

question: um so i've never used recolors or building replacements(?), i use vortex through nexus, do i just install them the same way i do other game changing mods?

[shell jackal]

I know most people recommend doing it manually, cause apparently vortex can cause issues with installation. But I'll let someone that knows vortex answer

[heady locust]

if i have to do it manually, that's fine, i just wanted to know before i break something xD

would i put it in mods folder?

[muted pagoda]

recolors and the like are generally just cp mods these days

[heady locust]

okay cool

[muted pagoda]

the only ones you'd have to install by hand would be something like reshade

[shell jackal]

Yup, in the mods folder

[muted pagoda]

which isnt a mod, really

[heady locust]

okay sweet, thnx 🙂

[shell jackal]

I will say updating mods manually can be a pain. xD Especially when some people coughPathoscough upload a bunch of updates all at once. 😉

[heady locust]

honestly, that's fair, i probably forget about half the ones i installed manually 😳

[dire fractal]

Does SVE come with a bathroom in the farmhouse? I always forget

(And I don't want to do a conflict by downloading a mod that alters the farmhouse if SVE does what i want already)

[heady locust]

i don't believe it does unless it came in an update and i just don't know about it. but the only bathroom in house mod i've found doesn't work and has broken my game several times not realizing that it was the problem

if there's a diff one though, PLEASE let me know xD

[tired brook]

Done. Welcome back to the cheeto bag!

[main ingot]

yaaaay

i am ORANGE

[chrome cosmos]

it does not, sve doesnt alter the farmhouse

[dire fractal]

i wonder where i got my bigger farmhouse from...

[stable spoke]

Okay, so I'm trying to restore my farm pepper bell, and there's two folders for the farm as you can see in the pictures, one has the stardew valley save MP tacked on to the end of one and the other has I guess the day saves?
Anyway I'm following the instructions on the wiki page for restoring the saves or whatever and I'm unsure of which I should do first removing the stardew valley MP off of it or doing the day save restore thing.
Because the farm is showing up on the on the load farm screen.
So I'm just a bit confused.

[dire fractal]

is sve no longer compatible with things that alter stuff like the inside of the greenhouse or the farmhouse? i recall it having some override stuff you could do for stuff like seasonal things. what about map recolors?

[remote marsh]

I use SVE just fine with a recolor mod, reshade mod, a mod that changes the interior of the farmhouse, and a mod that changes the interior of the farm cave. The only thing I can't say for certain is a different greenhouse interior mod, though I'm not sure why that would cause any problems.

[dire fractal]

(I just want a bigger greenhouse)

[remote marsh]

SVE's config option has a feature that allows for a larger greenhouse w/ designated fruit tree spots if that interests you at all, but I would think that using another greenhouse interior mod would also work

You might also try joining the SVE discord and asking there if you want more solid confirmation

[dire fractal]

looks like it should work pretty well...

Now the big question

Do I want a seasonal (interior) greenhouse? or do I just want an absurdly gargantuan insane greenhouse?

[dire fractal]

are there any mods similar to Karmylla's maps but not SVE?

[main ingot]

just check the maps tag on nexus

but to answer your question, stardew reimagined, few others

yes

i dont remember them all but thats the first i recall

[coarse flint]

So I'm trying to use cjb cheats menu but when I run the game pressing "p" does nothing

[stable spoke]

Is it key bound to a different key??

[native dragon]

@coarse flint Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

I'll check back here some other time

hopefully this'll work @_@

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3034?tab=description
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5102?tab=description

Is there a difference between these two mods besides whether they use CFR or PFM?

[slim atlas]

don't know for certain, but I'd lean towards PFM, just because it's been updated for 1.5

Also, CFR itself hasn't been updated since Jan of last year, and there's multiple reports of the CFR version crashing (likely due to incompatibilities with 1.5, my understanding is 1.5 broke A LOT of stuff)

From the descriptions though, they're likely pretty much the same mod otherwise, it's just that PFM is far more recently updated.

[patent umbra]

Hi all, I decided to mod the game for the first time and concentrated mainly on quality of life mods and SVE and other mods that expand the game. I tried to play test it last night, and had the issue that the camera wouldn't follow my character, only resetting after I went into the crafting menu. If I post the SMAPI log, would anyone be willing to have a look and see where I may have messed up? Thanks!

[sacred iron]

why isnt sve working

[dire fractal]

does anyone know if the boarding house/bus stop expansion and garden village / walk to desert mods ever fixed the problem of collecting the stray NPCs in one corner of the map so that they never actually went anywhere?

[small cargo]

can anyone tell me why my shoe slot is locked? I've got other farms and when i open them theres nothing there, but on my main farm i cant equip shoes anymore?

[sacred iron]

can anyone tell me how to check if sve is installed

[patent umbra]

Ohhhh I just found the fix for Downtown Zuzu that @muted pagoda posted a while ago. Installing it now, will report back but that would be a lifesaver if it works!

[sacred iron]

why wont sve work😭 '

[main ingot]

wdym why wont it work

whats wrong

[sacred iron]

i downloaded all the mods and when i open stardew valley nothing is different

is there some sort of activation i have to do?

i doesnt say error or anything just

same game

[muted pagoda]

you a arent running smapi, b didnt install all of the dependencies, or c installed things more than once/some other way incorrectly

!log

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[sacred iron]

tbh i probably downloaded a mod too man times

how do i fix that

i think i download smapi like 4 times

oops

[true dock]

Did you install it?

You'll need to run the installer for your operating system packaged in the SMAPI download, and optionally set your launch options in Steam if you're using it. You can find a step-by-step guide on the wiki: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started

[sacred iron]

yeah yeah i

typed 1 twice on the command thingo

[muted pagoda]

that doesnt matter, the multiple times thing I meant was for actual mods, usually installing a mod required by sve that is packaged with sve, and then also installing the standalone version

thus why a log would clear that up, that sort of thing is reported prominently by smapi near the top of the log

[true dock]

If you've installed SMAPI, then you can run modded SDV by launching StardewModdingAPI in your game folder. If you're using Steam and set the launch options correctly per the install instructions, then you can also run straight from Steam, too

[runic cobalt]

SVE: When can I catch Razor Trout? I'm not having any luck in Year 1 Fall

[sacred iron]

hwo do change that in my steam setting?

which instructions?

[main ingot]

do you have any fishing overhauls or anything?

tehpers is known to mess with the ability to get new fish, so if you have tehpers fishing overhaul, take it out and replace it with fishing overlays

[ashen garnet]

The only fishing mod I have is the one that allows legendaries in fish ponds

[muted pagoda]

razor trout is only catchable in the joja route, I do believe

its also not technically a fish, so doesnt go in the collections/required things

that's what I remember reading, anyway

[ashen garnet]

I haven't finished the community center, so

[muted pagoda]

incidently I do really like fishing preview+fishing overlay+visible fishes, makes it feel much more natural without actually changing any of the mechanics

Could i get mods on switch?

[glacial briar]

Technically, yes, with an insane amount of effort no one here can help you with.

Realistically, no.

Technically, you can also run SDV on a potato.

[upbeat acorn]

i see

is sdv on xhox

xbox

if so is it on gamepass

[glacial briar]

https://www.thegamer.com/doom-calculator-potatoes/

[upbeat acorn]

wait

[glacial briar]

Lol, your choices for modding are android and PC/Mac.

[upbeat acorn]

i should probably ask that somewhere else sorry lol

oh android

[glacial briar]

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

The Android version of the game is quite a bit different from other ports and so needs a custom version of SMAPI. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Android for details on getting started.

[upbeat acorn]

so android ISNT Ipad

right

how do u trigger the bus stop event of mayor lewis with the ridgeside village npc?

[sacred iron]

what are the instructions to run mods straight outta steam

[patent umbra]

This was on a new save that I made after installing mods

[carmine sinew]

there are also no npcs whenever I go to the village itself

Razor Trouts are only available in the Joja Route ||(and for good reason)||.

[stable spoke]

Does SVE need mono??

Or any of the other mods to make SVE work need mono??

[supple venture]

how do i uninstall level extender without corrupting my data?

[rare quest]

On linux and MAC, yeah.

[supple venture]

what is mono?

[main ingot]

monogame

[supple venture]

does 64bit sdv count as linux

[main ingot]

yes

its the linux build

[supple venture]

alright

where do i find it?

[main ingot]

what

didnt you install it yesterday?

[supple venture]

oh i thought it was a mod like content patcher

im an idiot

[stable spoke]

Okay, cuz when I try to use the SVE and the mods to run it, mono keeps asking for debug permissions. Like in this pic, and this is the mono I got unless this is the wrong on. And I know I have been asking the same things but I just want to get SVE to work. Also I did get my SVE farm save to work again!!

Also also, is there a server for SVE and if so can someone send me a link to it cuz maybe I can ask for help there too.

[stray spire]

@sacred iron https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows

[supple venture]

darn liberals

[stable spoke]

Again sorry for asking the same things. I'm just not sure what to do.

[muted pagoda]

there's been a couple of people come in with similar issues with the debugger complaining

[rare quest]

I'm unfortunately unfamiliar with MAC. There is an SVE server, although this particular issue isn't because of SVE but rather modding stardew valley on that OS.

[stable spoke]

Okay

[muted pagoda]

assuming you are certain you got your mods from nexus/moddrop, you could try filling out that prompt and seeing if it stops complaining (Be certain of this that you did not somehow get a malicious file beforehand)

[stable spoke]

I did I try to give it the debug permissions but it keeps asking and then Stardew crashes after.

And when I mean it keeps asking I mean it asks every time I open the game

[muted pagoda]

yeah, post your latest smapi log?

the dev tool thing more or less happens _because it crashed

basically xcode is trying to pass the crash to a dev debugger

[stable spoke]

Okay let me turn my computer back on

[muted pagoda]

(the reason I said bits about malicious files is searches did turn up malicious programs using a similar looking popup window to steal admin rights and compromise machines, usually for people that downloaded mods/etc/things from lookalike but not offical channels)

Though I dont believe your particular situation anything like that, the dev tools thing is literally prompted by the system because the game crashed.

[stable spoke]

Okays cuz the mods I always get from Nexus I have an account on there so I know bit the right one.

Only ones did I get some mod from a different site and it was sent from here it was seasonal clothing for SVE

[muted pagoda]

yeah, that's fine, just always a cautionary note any time something suddenly wants admin rights etc to be certain of what you're doing

[stable spoke]

Right

[sacred iron]

where should i go on this page

nv

nvm

i got it

actually how do i run smapi again

to find the

[stable spoke]

Can't get the log it proofed when my wifi cutout a bit ago

I can get a new one tho but starting Stardew

[main ingot]

it poofed

it should still be in the same place

[muted pagoda]

https://smapi.io/log/a01f4d42c2a94232ad0f935363ac7a78 this is the last log I see you posted

and that looks like a typo in an xml file...wut

yeah i saw that too kyrinia

really weird

lmao valu

[heady locust]

does custom furniture add to robin's catalogue? i don't want to overwrite the already existing furniture, just more options

[sacred iron]

sve still doesnt work ;(

[main ingot]

are you running smapi grizz

or are you running the vanilla game

[sacred iron]

aparently im running the vanilla game

but i want to run smapi

[main ingot]

if you want to run smapi and have sve work, you have to click the funny pufferchicken icon

dont click the regular chicken

[stable spoke]

Idk I can make I new. I don't really know much about any of this so sorry for getting things worng.

[sacred iron]

where in hells heck is the pufferchiken

[main ingot]

unless you have set it up in steam to load the smapi exe when click- go into your game files

[sacred iron]

where is my game files

ohhhh

that one

[main ingot]

yeah

[muted pagoda]

the log isnt 'wrong' its just bizzare that an an xml file would have that sort of error in it, unless you tinkered with the save file at some point

[sacred iron]

ooh ooh its doing shit

[muted pagoda]

and I also guess the first question is, have you tried starting a new save? @stable spoke

[main ingot]

maybe you should set it up so that clicking on the regular chicken on your desktop will load the game through smapi

[stable spoke]

Never mind I'm dumb, the file was just taking forever to load

[main ingot]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Launch_SMAPI_through_Steam_or_GOG_Galaxy

[stable spoke]

Yeah, does the same thing. Asks for debug permissions then crashes.

[main ingot]

arent there mac players in here that use smapi? has this happened to them?

[sacred iron]

yaaaay i did it

thanks lani

[main ingot]

of course

have fun with your mods grizz

let us know if you need any more help

[sacred iron]

can i close the black screen with whtie code tab?

[main ingot]

no

dont

[sacred iron]

ok

[main ingot]

dont close the console 😂 itll close the game if you do

[sacred iron]

ok

phew

nearly did

[muted pagoda]

I guess the easiest/best thing to do would be a start from scratch reinstall of the game, then smapi, see if it loads with just the smapi mods, then slowly add the dependencies sve needs, then sve itself, see if it breaks at any point

[stable spoke]

here the log from when it last happened
https://smapi.io/log/85afa2d97e244d25a856470f25e02948

[lament prairie]

Yes, it adds to Robin's shop and also the furniture catalog if you buy it. You can optionally edit the json to not have it show up at the shop.

[heady locust]

thank u, i originally downloaded the CP instead of the CF so i figured, that's what the difference was.

[stable spoke]

okay i will try that

[heady locust]

and i would put those CF's in the regular mods folder right?

wait no i'm dumb, i need the CF mod huh?

[sacred iron]

is there anyway to put the SMAPI on my home screen

[main ingot]

yeah! you can make a shortcut and drag it to your desktop. but if the vanilla sdv icon is already on your desktop, once again its better to connect that icon to your smapi via the guide i linked above

if you want to get achievements/game time/whatever on steam anyways

[carmine sinew]

https://smapi.io/log/a416e103fe854a5a90fa31530a1547ae

[main ingot]

its saying it cant find a map/tilesheet

"Stardew Valley Expanded - PyTK loaded map 'assets/Maps/SpriteSpring.tbin' with invalid tilesheet path 'spring_island_tilesheet_1.png'. The tilesheet couldn't be found relative to either map file or the game's content folder."

[carmine sinew]

should I reinstall those mods?

[main ingot]

i mean its only tmx throwing an issue

as well as custom npc exclusions

[lament prairie]

Yeah, you need both Custom Furniture and the modpacks. Right now I have all of the modpacks and CF all in a "Furniture" folder under my "Mods" folder (same folder level)

[main ingot]

also it says sve cant load because its not compatible?

or custom companions

so because sve cant load, game breaks when loading things

[carmine sinew]

oh maybe

[main ingot]

yeah

[carmine sinew]

I tried to add sve since I've read it can work on android as long as you use the older versions

[main ingot]

im not sure about how well it'd work on mobile since its a gigantic mod

but maybe someone else would know better

[glacial briar]

[glacial briar]

Next question 👍

[terse saffron]

hi quick question, does the automate mod work on hops?

[main ingot]

the automate mod works with all machines, so. yes

[main ingot]

it says zero percent because you only have one fish, not 9

[terse saffron]

oh it auto harvests it daily? neat

[main ingot]

the automate description goes into more detail

but yeah

it automates the process

[glacial briar]

There are some fish (and other things, if you have the no restrictions fish ponds mod) that only produce roe.

[terse saffron]

ty so much

[main ingot]

of course!

[terse saffron]

guess ill plant multiple hops together

[main ingot]

wait wait

wh- crops?

automate doesnt autoharvest crops, it makes machines automated

[terse saffron]

ohhhh, I thought it would be the same for hops

[glacial briar]

Better Junimos. 👍 Or just normal Junimos.

[terse saffron]

like how it harvests fruit trees daily

[main ingot]

automate doesnt... do that

[terse saffron]

oh ok ok

[main ingot]

AHHAHA i just was like ... wait... what kinda automate you got?

yeah automate just makes machine go brr.... it doesnt autoharvest anything, thats a different mod

[terse saffron]

I thought it worked similarly to fruit trees, my bad hahaha

[main ingot]

all good!! heh

[terse saffron]

thank you for the tip!

[main ingot]

of course! good luck w ur modding!

[terse saffron]

oh and is there like a mod that can destroy multiple crops at a time?

[main ingot]

wdym destroy? like, when you use your pickaxe to destroy a dead one?

[stable spoke]

I'm trying it with just the mods that make SVE work.

[royal hull]

Which mod is/was the pufferchick supposed to be a part of?

SVE, MNF?

[main ingot]

none, its just a little icon for smapi

[terse saffron]

yes, Im currently organizing stuff for summer

[royal hull]

It's part of my fishing inventory.

[terse saffron]

and my strawberries wont grow before summer hits haha

[main ingot]

there are mods that increase the range of your pickaxe upon charging so you can destroy large areas, but thats all i can think of

[main ingot]

well its not sve

[terse saffron]

Oh that can work

[supple venture]

maybe its like 0.5% but the mod just rounds it

[glacial briar]

Tractor (I think)

[main ingot]

no

[terse saffron]

I have the tractor, what tool do I need to use for it?

[royal hull]

I'm in the process of F1-ing all of my uncaught fish silhouettes, and it's there, so it's in someone's content file.

[supple venture]

you can also use mega cherry bombs

[terse saffron]

oh that works? ill try that too

[main ingot]

i think just running the tractor over it works?? im not sure tbh

be careful using bombs though, they clear out large areas and can hit your regular crops too

[keen crow]

I don't not bomb your farm?

[main ingot]

probably better to not bomb your farm

[terse saffron]

I tried running the tractor over it with different tools but doesnt get destroyed sadly

[supple venture]

you can take out the pickaxe

[supple venture]

you know what they say, death from above

[main ingot]

i dont have the tractor mod so i dont know

[supple venture]

there needs to be a bomber plane mod

[keen crow]

Mod descriptions are often so helpful

Worth reading through them

[supple venture]

so you can just go in it and bomb your field

[terse saffron]

oh the crops need to be dead to be cleared with axe/pickaxe

[devout pumice]

[glacial briar]

Literally says the opposite. 👍

[snow wraith]

tractor is close enough. you can set the range to nearly screenwide. Switch to pickaxe, boom no more crops

[glacial briar]

But you do need to enable it in the config

[snow wraith]

it may not be enabled in this chat? idk
nvm am dumb

[main ingot]

at least go spam test in #governors-mansion kekw

[calm goblet]

Ah ok thank you

[hallow fiber]

Is downtown zuzuz worth the time for all its dependencies i already got sve and ridgeside and im tired of so many dependencies ;-;

[main ingot]

thats how expansions are, lots of dependencies

it is what it is

[calm goblet]

Ngl this is my first mod playthrough and after playing modded skyrim i was fine with one expansion mod lol

[glacial briar]

Heck, Joja Seeds has like five dependencies. XD

Mods do multiple things, they need multiple dependencies.

[hallow fiber]

Aaaa ill just grab it and hope it was worth it

Its also midnight i should be in bed

[glacial briar]

One for making new crops, one for making new dialog, one for editing shops....

Skyrim mods != SDV mods

[hallow fiber]

I-...i had all but 3 dependencies...

Im stupid xD

[glacial briar]

Also, it's a lot of fun to check out the non-expansion mods too.

https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Category:Recommendations

[glacial briar]

I'm surprised you even needed to add any.

::goes to see what Zuzu requires::

[hallow fiber]

Bus locations and trainstation are what i was missing the third thing apparently is optional

[glacial briar]

Trainstation is also optional, actually.

Though you can also use it to get to the aquarium if you like fishing.

[hallow fiber]

Oh

[glacial briar]

You only needed one. 😛

[hallow fiber]

So then i was just missing one

Nice

[amber spoke]

random question, but.. Is it possible to.. hide a save?

[hallow fiber]

I dont think so?

[glacial briar]

Hide from where?

[main ingot]

you can delete one but you cant hide it

[hallow fiber]

I mean maybe by moving it out of the saves folder

[main ingot]

unless you drag it out of the saves folder and put it somewhere else

yeah

[glacial briar]

Like, move it to another folder so you still have it but SDV doesn't see it? Sure.

[amber spoke]

From the list that appears when you press load

[main ingot]

yeah. drag it out of the folder

[glacial briar]

Jinx cola all around

[hallow fiber]

Not with mods or default game no but with just file explorer its technically possible

Just not in the simple way you probly want

[amber spoke]

I moved it. But every time, this appears, and the save I want to hide is there

It's just something smapi does...

[hallow fiber]

Huh..

[main ingot]

?

dont think you moved the save

it should just be a folder

idk why its a ... is that a zip

[glacial briar]

Smapi also makes save backups

[hallow fiber]

Lemme check something it might have to move a .old file as well.

Or.backup

[amber spoke]

I have a folder called "save-backups"

[keen crow]

Yeah that's the... backups

[main ingot]

thats the backups, not the actual saves

[amber spoke]

OH

[main ingot]

moving that out wont- yeah you get it. lol

[glacial briar]

Real saves are here

[amber spoke]

Ohh thank you

[hallow fiber]

Lol yeah i went to see and immediatly was like"where the hecc are the saves anyway"

[amber spoke]

I was looking through the steam folder in program files, lol

[hallow fiber]

So was i lol

But yeah apparently its in appdata

*now to hoping vortex's profile system works this time, some games it doesnt work on

YES IT WORKS

[stable spoke]

I'm just going to try and make a new farm to test the SVE stuff cuz the old farm is broken

[muted pagoda]

once you verify you have an actual working game, you could 'try' to fix that save that apparently has a typo in it (which says its corrupted in some way) but first thing is..getting a game that works

[amber spoke]

I tried SVE a few months ago, but the frame rate is super low for me

[calm goblet]

Im aware lol

[stable spoke]

Do you need to have SVE in the mod folder for grandpa's farm map to work??

[muted pagoda]

yes

[stable spoke]

Yeah I just looked

[muted pagoda]

I imagine so, anyway

[stable spoke]

I'm going to send the log for trying the game with everything but SVE

https://smapi.io/log/cffd43920e1e44058e5920757fbe086a

[topaz matrix]

!reset

[native dragon]

@stable spoke See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! (This doesn't affect your save 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 :)

[muted pagoda]

that's not a new save.

[topaz matrix]

@tired brook

[stable spoke]

I know I was going to try a new farm but it that was before I found out the farm map would not load

So I tryed on an old farm and it worked

ish

[muted pagoda]

oh, that worked, even with the collection exception?

[stable spoke]

The what??

[muted pagoda]

all of the yellow is because you have invalid npcs since you dont have sve running

Parameter name: key
  at System.Collections.Hashtable.get_Item (System.Object key) <0x105fcd850 + 0x00225> in <filename unknown>:0 
  at System.Runtime.Caching.MemoryCacheStore.Remove (System.Runtime.Caching.MemoryCacheKey key, System.Runtime.Caching.MemoryCacheEntry entryToRemove, CacheEntryRemovedReason reason) <0x110727680 + 0x000bb> in <filename unknown>:0 ```

that

[stable spoke]

Oh yeah it was fine just the normal game with some missplaced rocks and stuff on the farm

But what is the top first error??

[muted pagoda]

I'm unsure if that error is related to missing content or not, you should still try loading a 'new' farm with your current set and see if you get a clean log

[stable spoke]

Okay, I will have to do it tomorrow when I get some time to get on my PC. Should I ping you when I do or no??

[muted pagoda]

you can if you want shrug, I'm usually around mid-late. The next step after verifying you have a clean new log would be trying that save after adding sve, and if it still fails, trying a new game after installing sve

[stable spoke]

I got rid of the save, but I did make a backup before

I have backed it up through the steam launcher where it saves it to the desktop how would I get the save files from the backup made through steam?

[muted pagoda]

well, that was only if you really cared about trying to continue it, if not, dont worry about that part of things

[stable spoke]

Okay, but I do have a back that still has the farm still.

I hit the back of button on the preferences on the steam launcher and that is my back up.

Good night, see y'all tomorrow.

[heady locust]

went from 66 mods yesterday, to 107 today 🙃

[sacred iron]

is the community center the same in sve?

[muted pagoda]

believe so

you need one of the bundles mods to change that. Was weird watching soemone's playthru and seeing how hilariously easy the vanilla ones are

[sacred iron]

lmao i got community center year 2 fall on my first playthrough ( i used an exploit for 2m)

i aint making shit hard

[muted pagoda]

I will be lucky if I even get 1 bundle done in my first year, heh

[snow wraith]

bundles are the same, the decor inside changes some once it's completed though

[sacred iron]

thanks

[main ingot]

bro eeeeezzzz

[muted pagoda]

heh

[glacial briar]

You want easy, you go Joja. 👍

[compact fjord]

So I used codes for stardrop and now my energy bar covers my tasks button and menu xD

[royal oyster]

Im using the ace expanded farm mod, if i try to pick up an item placed in the extra area. it seems to fall through the map.
Any ideas?

[supple venture]

if you do it in year one ill give you nitro||gen||

[glossy quail]

You became superman

[heady locust]

yo don't make me download a 108th mod xD

[muted pagoda]

heh

[supple venture]

its called hard community center bundles or something btw

[muted pagoda]

those are all required, that's the advanced ppja one on hard, its..painful

my Pierre also forgot what a seed is, so there's also that.

ironically I think the samonberries on that shot are the easiest because they're so many everywhere, I actually have over 200 in a chest somewhere

too slow, governor

[glossy quail]

where can i see the event ids for sdve

[tight bridge]

damn thats complicated

[glossy quail]

i can t trigger cammilla showing up

[true dock]

It's pretty simple, at least for windows! it's just making a new shortcut to go with your new folder.

[glossy quail]

i don t get it?

[true dock]

Looks like camilla's meeting event ID is 6904242

SVE's event data is everywhere, some of it's scattered in the [CP] SVE content.json, many are in the XNBs

[neat plaza]

i + governor were first for me xD

[true dock]

i guess i was only first on my client then that posts gonna look reeeal silly

[glossy quail]

i looked everywhere else except there

just like usual

[neat plaza]

i wonder who was first on neither of us's screens

[errant hornet]

Sorry Blueberry

(That's from my screen)

[naive ivy]

blueberry lost😔

ATTENTION: are there any fucking mods that changed the town buildings, i desperately need. i swear i have been finding everywhere

[neat plaza]

wayback pelican town?

[heady locust]

i've been using flower valley

[naive ivy]

d

does that

change the town buildings, AND my house?

cause i already have a house changy mod thingy

[heady locust]

yes, and you can configure the setting to only set it to town or to your farm

at least with flower valley, i havent used way back pelican town yet

[naive ivy]

YES FINALLY

okay i viewed way back pelican towns images and i think it fits

im gonna check flower valley

wich do you guys think fits medieval buildings

[heady locust]

oooh, for the medieval ones, i think flower valley might fit best

like you have the medieval buildings on your farm?

make sure you grab the medieval craftables as well so everything fits the vibe of your farm nicely!

[naive ivy]

okayyy

seeing that way back pelican town is from gwen aswell

i might have to with that

[supple venture]

yo what is "pumpkin smasher the arcade game"

and how do i play it

[naive ivy]

what

[supple venture]

its from a mod

[heady locust]

pretty sure that's from SVE and i don't think it's playable from what i've seen(??)

looked on reddit, said it could be a possible teaser for an update at some point, but as of now, it's unplayable

[glossy quail]

@true dock guess what stopped the camilla event from triggering

a friking dewdrop berry

[naive ivy]

w-what

OK A POLL: wich is better

Gwens paths & cottagecore fences —

seasonal fences & floorings —

so ryn the gwens paths mod changed the town paths and stuff?

[torpid fox]

nope, it's the medieval buildings mod and the way back pelican town mod

both by Gwen btw

[naive ivy]

well

im gonna do a epic big brain move

ill use gwens fence mod

and ill use the seasonal paths mod

😎

[glossy quail]

i can t heal anymore

[naive ivy]

wh

at

[glossy quail]

im eating food and it doesn t heal me

[torpid fox]

maybe repair your game or remove all mods and try again

[silent grove]

@runic cobalt i wondering can we add custom npc to stardew valley mobile?

like mike or sorren?

[glossy quail]

If you are on android yes

[silent grove]

really?

how about boarding house?

but still i have to download the oldest version of the npc right?

[neat plaza]

the most recent version that's pre dec 21st or (if possible) a specified mobile version

[silent grove]

so we can add custom npc that the file is uploade before 21 december?

[neat plaza]

yes

newer ones may work however

[silent grove]

omg ty so much pillow

i ask this bcs i rarely play sv in my pc lol

i usually play on my mobile

so i think im gonna focus on my mobile sv and unistall sv in my pc

[glossy quail]

@silent grove or check the manifest for the minimum api

[silent grove]

how to do that? 😅

i know how to install mods but don't know how to do something like that 😅

[naive island]

Hi guys, was wondering if i can get some help or advice

After I unstalled SMAPI and deleted SVE mods, my game would not load

I then read on reddit somewhere that I should reinstall SMAPI but delete the SVE mods which I did and now my game runs but it has a pop up that says

invalid content was removed to prevent crash

is that normal?

[muted pagoda]

that's what is needed if you want the game to run without smapi, yes

[neat plaza]

that's normal when you just remove a mod like sve or rsv

[naive island]

are there supposed to be files in the original mod folder?

[neat plaza]

but the vanilla game doesn't remove it, so i suppose you could save with smapi then load in vanilla?

[neat plaza]

wdym?

[naive island]

I have 3 folders in my mod folder: console commands error handler and savebackup

[neat plaza]

they're smapi mods

they're meant to be in there always

[naive island]

so i leave them be? sorry I am new to modding

Thanks for helping!

[neat plaza]

yup

[naive island]

Does this mean that I will always have to run stardew on SMAPI?

[neat plaza]

no

just save once with smapi then try load vanilla, after uninstalling your mods

[naive island]

how do I load vanilla?

[neat plaza]

double click the chicken

instead of

[naive island]

yeah it works now!

Thanks pillow

appreciate your help

[thorny crystal]

Anyone here using Shell Collection + Anything Ponds?

Apparently the scallop fish pond might need 30 sturgeon, I wonder if that's a typo? 😂 I tried finding where to fix it, but no luck so far

[muted pagoda]

@thorny crystal fishPond_base.json it looks like

line 91, probably

there's 2 other versions that are only used if you have those mods I believe, so you may need to change one of them as well/instead

"HasMod |contains=Taelende.ShellfishPonds": "true"

and the more pearls version is if you have that mod and also have the 'make more pearls' config option on

[thorny crystal]

thank you ❤️ I don't have the more pearls option, I already feel like I get so much pearls from stuff in the mines with the more gem mod so

[muted pagoda]

yeah that mod is something about making clams produce pearls as a fish pond thing, which reallife makes sense, but may not be super useful in game

[dire sinew]

Can you get mods for Xbox one X?

[neat plaza]

nope, just pc android and in theory switch but it isn't worth it

[runic cobalt]

Why not?

[silent grove]

so we can?

[runic cobalt]

why not?

[silent grove]

idk lol

bcs i never try it 🤣

i just want my sorren and mike in my mobile lol 🤣

[runic cobalt]

of course you can, i'm trying to say that

:P

[silent grove]

lmao

what about boarding house?

bcs need that mod lol for sorren mike and the other 🤣

[silent grove]

thanks btw

[proud sable]

First time playing on PC. I just wanted to download a mod that lets me slow down time. But then I thought "hey, I could check out some more mods on Nexus, just to see if there's something cool". And so it begins. I don't think I can take it anymore. I already spent 6 hours modding Skyrim, only to then lose interest.
Does anybody have a list of the best mods that I can just copy so I don't spend all of my time looking at mods?

[supple venture]

youre already too late

this one is old

it took me 6 times to spell old im such a boomer

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2 we found the oldest alive mod

[proud sable]

I just found it, gonna install

[supple venture]

mod number 1 is hidden

[proud sable]

Are there certain compatibility issues I need to keep an eye on? I remember losing an 600h Skyrim world because I corrupted the game files. Don't want that to happen again.

[supple venture]

why would you my pc is already crying

i must install

[supple venture]

well install the 64bit version

[neat plaza]

[supple venture]

there wont be any save data to corrupt

[neat plaza]

just reuploaded by the author

[supple venture]

bruh y

[proud sable]

cute omg

[neat plaza]

smapi backs up your saves irl daily and you can always roll them back, even in vanilla so generally fine

and most stuff can be avoided by not saving if it happens

[proud sable]

Does anybody know if there's a proper interface for games in vortex? I kinda can only see the downloads or how many active mods there are. Can't seem to find a proper interface just for Stardew Valley

[proud sable]

nice, thankss

[trail shard]

Does anybody know of a mod that lets you simply buy/commission new tools instead of upgrading your existing ones? Because "upgrading" a copper watering can into an steel watering can really isn't something a blacksmith can do, that's more of a job for an alchemist. But on the other hand, a steel watering can ought to be on aisle five of JojaMart

[supple venture]

i dont really know

downloading manually is better tho

[proud sable]

itty bitty frustrating

[supple venture]

just drag and drop

[proud sable]

ik but I have a better overview

ngl I miss the old nexus manager

[neat plaza]

best to install manually

[supple venture]

bro that thing was cut off 4 years ago

what a boomer

[trail shard]

What are you trying to do? There's a Stardew extension, and I recently updated it to work for 64-bit as well

[proud sable]

i know

[supple venture]

just drag and drop

[proud sable]

I want to see only the mods I downloaded for Stardew Valley. And whether they are active or not. I can't seem to find a proper interface for that

[supple venture]

that is pog

[proud sable]

ya know, I might just do that

[neat plaza]

you can disable mods by putting a . infront of the folder

[trail shard]

First you have to make sure that Vortex is managing your Stardew

[supple venture]

i usually drag em out of the mods folder

SMAPI cant see it so no errors

[trail shard]

It should look something like this

[proud sable]

ye it does

[trail shard]

The click Mods on the left side

[supple venture]

that is if its 64bit

[proud sable]

at last, thanks

[trail shard]

The only difference is the install path at this point

[trail shard]

No problem, it's slightly counter-intuitive so there's a bit of a learning curve. I think it's worth it though, that's why I went to the trouble of updating the extension to support 64-bit when I upgraded to 64-bit

[proud sable]

So you're using Vortex too?

[trail shard]

Yeah, being able to manage the deployment rules is invaluable in my book

[proud sable]

damn, nearly forgot about that. Aight, I'll stay with Vortex then, thanks

[trail shard]

No problem, glad to help

If you do move to the 64-bit version of Stardew you'll need this to keep managing it with Vortex though, sorry for the shameless plug
https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/267

[proud sable]

Sorry, but I don't really understand what that does. What's the difference between the versions?

[cloud mantle]

I was using Snapi (I think) for skipping fishing game and all of a sudden it stopped working… so should I like undownload everything and try to install it again 😅 I’m not good with mods or do y’all recommend using something else

[trail shard]

The 64-bit version of Stardew is unofficial, but it has better performance and allows you to use vastly more RAM, meaning you can use a lot more mods before you run out

[proud sable]

And yet another question, sorry: are there certain things I have to be careful with when installing a mod made for an earlier version?

[supple venture]

what proffesions should i go for in the cooking sklill mod?

[proud sable]

Are we talking, 150+ mods or less?

[supple venture]

depends on ur pc

[trail shard]

It depends on the mod--big mods can eat up RAM fast

[proud sable]

Somebody hold me

That's always how it starts

It will be over 50 soon enough

[trail shard]

It also depends on what else you're running; every 32-bit app running on your machine shares the first 3 GB of your RAM.

[proud sable]

ah, oke. I'll see if I need it or not.

[trail shard]

Personally just Stardew Valley Extended, Ridgeside Village, and I think a selection of content packs put me up to 4 GB with Stardew alone

As for old mods, the way I do it is I check the Bugs reports, the Posts, and if it shows up as broken on this list https://smapi.io/mods

By old I mean, last update of 2020 or earlier

Since 1.5 came out in late 2020

[proud sable]

I don't think I'll use "radical" mods for now and will try to keep it a bit vanilla for a while. ^^

[proud sable]

So, if they've been updated for 1.5 they should be good?

[trail shard]

In theory, although it's always smart to read the Bugs and glance the Posts in case they have conflicts with other mods you might be using or something like that, but at least they ought to load

[proud sable]

Will Vortex notify me if mods try to overwrite the same file?

[trail shard]

Yep, one more reason it's handy

And it'll ask you for a load order to resolve the issue

And offer a suggested order

But some conflicts are more subtle, so you still have to be careful

Like using Harmony to rewrite the same function

[tranquil glen]

guys sorry to interrupt, my horse flute mod is not working. I've tried to re-download it and it's still not working, anyone know how to fix this? I'm using macOs btw

I can't seem to find the item

the flute

it's late 1.5

you buy it from mr qi

[silent grove]

@runic cobalt i try mike (it last update 16 feb 2021) it work with mobile version but not with the boarding house bcs i still trying that mod

and delores npc work too

[trail shard]

Harmony is a tool that allows mods to use a method called reflection to effectively alter the game's source code while it's running

It's messy but very powerful

[runic cobalt]

Good to know

[silent grove]

yeah lol

finally i can bring my mike anywhere i go 🤣

[tranquil glen]

owh okayy, thank you

[silent grove]

still will try other npc mod

No problem! I'm not an expert myself, apologies if I've made it seem otherwise, but I do try to share what knowledge I have. And feel free to ask me anything, anytime, and I'll do my best to help out

[supple venture]

fair and balanced

[trail shard]

Hah, yeah, I haven't actually used Harmony itself but I'm pretty familiar with reflection in general from working with Java and yeah, it's dark magic for sure. It can grant any desire... for a cost

[proud sable]

Thanks ^^^
If you've already offered your help again: Is there a way to determine whether or not a mod could have problems with the version? For example, there is a mod that changes the way the girls legs look, and it's last been updated to 1.1.0. I assume that this would have less of a problem than e.g. something that messes with gamefiles instead of textures?

[supple venture]

*cries in brain't

[neat plaza]

textures are..

gamefiles

[trail shard]

So there's kind of a hierarchy of things that are likely to cause problems, and I'm not sure which files you mean that it is altering. If it's XNB files, those aren't really supposed to be messed with these days because of a high chance of conflict and no real reason to do so

[proud sable]

Alright, thanks ''

[trail shard]

Can you link me to the mod in question and I can give it my best guess as to whether it's likely to be problematic?

[proud sable]

one sec

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/346/

[trail shard]

Although there are probably a dozen other people online in this room more qualified to do so than me heh

[proud sable]

eh, I don't mind

at least it comes from the heart

Does LOOT work with stardew valley?

[trail shard]

I believe Vortex uses an implementation of LOOT, if I understand correctly

So just from a quick glance, that mod isn't listed as broken on smapi.io, and while there are two bug reports saying it's broken that are posted after the latest update, there are multiple posts saying it works fine. So my guess is that it should be okay, as long as you don't try to combine it with any other mods that try and change the appearance of those characters

[proud sable]

just looked up that website, that's really cool

[trail shard]

Yeah, I double checked and Vortex defaults to LOOT

[proud sable]

Now, for another question: Do you think this mod would still work? It hasn't been updated in a long time. Or is there a good replacement for it? smap.io says that it works with the lastest version, but I just want to have a second opinion.
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2080/

[runic cobalt]

Yes is working

[trail shard]

https://wiki.nexusmods.com/index.php/About_Load_Orders

[proud sable]

oh lord another website. moddrop, eh

[proud sable]

oke thanks ^^

[trail shard]

That mod I can speak to personally as having good compatibility

It's quite popular I think

[proud sable]

alrighty thanks ^^

.....why are there so many weebs in that modding community

[dusky canyon]

[forest jackal]

Ahem Search for "No More Bowlegs Redux"

[proud sable]

thanks ^^

@trail shard Do you reckon this mod still works? I can't find anything about it smapi.io

[trail shard]

Which one? But if it's not on smapi.io that's actually a good sign because smapi.io doesn't track simple mods that are unlikely to break

[proud sable]

oh hahaha

sorry, I forgot to link

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1309?tab=files

[lament prairie]

It looks like it has a version that uses content patcher, so it probably still works

[trail shard]

Okay it looks like this is one of those nasty XNB mods that are troublesome but on the posts there's been an unofficial update linked
https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/migrating-xnb-mods-to-content-patcher-packs.141577/page-5#post-3272993

[lament prairie]

There's 2 download options

2nd one is content patcher version

[proud sable]

Does the content patcher keep things up to date or something?

[proud sable]

Is there anything I have to do when downloading from other websites?

[trail shard]

No, but it's what replaced XNB mods

In Vortex there's a Install from File button you can hit to install a mod from a zip

[proud sable]

Iiiii think I'll leave this for now

[lament prairie]

No content patcher is just easier to debug

(As tenketsu said, less scary XNB mods)

[trail shard]

Looks like the CP version on Nexus is the same as the offsite version I linked

[lament prairie]

Dialog mods are fairly straightforward as far as I can tell, they just add to the pool of phrases characters can say

[trail shard]

CP is also a lot less likely to cause a conflict than XNB as I understand it, because it's only overwriting a small bit instead of a big chunk

[lament prairie]

I can't think of anything off the top of my head that adding a line of dialog would break, unless there's been massive changes behind the hood somehow

[proud sable]

anybody know what mod this is from?

[trail shard]

I may be exposing that I don't actually understand the difference here, but I THOUGHT that basically CP is adding in a hook for new lines, but XNB is actually replacing the whole file with all the Wizard's dialogue so anything else that alters dialogue for the Wizard would be a conflict

[proud sable]

honestly, CP being just said like this is freaking me out abit ngl

[shy orbit]

content patcher can replace the original game asset entirely as well, but those unofficial dialogue mod updates don't do that i'm pretty sure

[trail shard]

It's a pretty common abbreviation in SDV modding given how common Content Patcher mods are

[proud sable]

Through so, but I hadn't heard of that abbreviation before

[trail shard]

Ah okay, good to know.

[proud sable]

Alright, I've officially given up on keeping it modest. I just downloaded like four script extenders in a row.
I know that they're not really script extenders, but I just like to refer to them that way.

[lament prairie]

yeah that is also my impression but like same on how much I know

[whole briar]

what's included with the stardew valley expanded mod

[neat plaza]

a lot

[whole briar]

anything particularly interesting

[neat plaza]

look at the first line of the description

a ton of npcs + areas

[whole briar]

okay

[hallow fiber]

The most prominent is an entirel revamped map

Like everything on the map is changed its so big and theres so much to see now

[whole briar]

okay

i downloaded

ima check it out

[hallow fiber]

If you play stardew valley expanded i HIGHLY suggest playing with the grandpas farm addon

[whole briar]

any reason why?

like what's the difference of using the grandpa's farm and the normal one

[hallow fiber]

Its a bigger farm with a few extra things such as actual paths to the cave and the upper part of the map, and even a foresty area down south.

It also connects nicer to the res of stardew valley expandeds map as it was custom made for it

[neat plaza]

true, it changes every map except like 8 lol

[hallow fiber]

The only things it doesnt change is the interiors of the caves

Or i hacvent noticed a difference there yet

[main ingot]

it doesnt change about 8 maps. theres a list on the modding wiki of what it doesnt change

with that in mind, it’s extremely difficult to mod around because of that

[neat plaza]

oh i was right

[proud sable]

Is there something I am doing wrong? I don't think my mods are working. Maybe starting it through Steam doesn't activate the mods and I have to start it over Vortex? It doesn't do anything when I click play on Vortex, so I am a bit puzzled.

[neat plaza]

set up launch paths

(manually installing is better btw)

[main ingot]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows

just go to the section that says launch through steam or gog

also vortex bad. dont use it if u can

[proud sable]

aalrighty

[hallow fiber]

Why does everyone say that i have had 0 issues

[main ingot]

because other people have had issues?

thats why

[proud sable]

somebody else told me to use it. I am puzzled now. Can I use the files form Vortex if I want to install them manually?

[hallow fiber]

Ive always used vortex for everything and only time ive had issues is when i set up the paths incorectly

[neat plaza]

yeah

[neat plaza]

it can sometimes mess up mods

[main ingot]

well, dae, not everyone is as lucky as you are

[hallow fiber]

Thats not what i was saying sorry i was wondering what the actual issue was with it

[hallow fiber]

Thank you for answering without being rude.

[main ingot]

wait i wasnt trying to be rude omg sorry

[chrome cosmos]

in my experience with vortex, it would mess with my files when i would update mods

[main ingot]

didnt realize how that message could come off

[chrome cosmos]

so i had to get rid of it and do everything manually all over again

[whole briar]

oh okay ill download it then

[proud sable]

does that have to be in black and white

[hallow fiber]

Yeah ive heard that which is honestly a fair issue with certain games

[hallow fiber]

That means smapi isnt installed

[proud sable]

I assume I downloaded it the wrong way

[hallow fiber]

How did you download it?

[proud sable]

over nexus

straight to vortex

[hallow fiber]

Can you vc i can show you how to force it to find smapi

[proud sable]

one sec

which channel

[hallow fiber]

I dont have perms to talk in any of these the hecc

;-;

[proud sable]

same

[neat plaza]

you need to be lvl 10 i think

[main ingot]

^

[hallow fiber]

Ack

[proud sable]

[main ingot]

easier to private call

[neat plaza]

actually it's either 5 or 25

theres no 10 role

[chrome cosmos]

i think its 5, because you get cowpoke iirc?

[dire fractal]

Ya it's 5

[main ingot]

this is straight up wrong lol

[supple venture]

Oh yea im stupid

[main ingot]

:scratch scratch: if u dont know what ur talking about plz dont mislead people ………

[supple venture]

My saves carried over

[main ingot]

😓

[supple venture]

Well if you delete your hard drive

Then there wont be any data

[main ingot]

[supple venture]

Am i wrong?

[main ingot]

i am not going to dignify that with a response

[supple venture]

Well you did respond so…

[dusky canyon]

huh?

64-bit doesn't corrupt save data ??

[neat plaza]

no, it doesn't lol

[dire fractal]

I just got the game on steam what are soem cosmetic mods I could use and how to use them

[dusky canyon]

yeah, it shouldn't

[hoary musk]

I've used the 64-bit version starting at the tail end of Year 1 and I'm half-way through Year 2. I've not had any OoM errors since the switch. But I tend to run into issues when I'm playing with my PS5 controller. But I've gotten used to it.

[dire fractal]

can someone answer my question please\

[topaz matrix]

hey is there a CF mod that only add one item

[chrome cosmos]

what kind of cosmetic mods are you looking for? recolors, buildings...?

[dire fractal]

buildings

anyone know what's up with all these mods saying 'could not be added because the folder is empty' when the folder clearly isn't empty?

[topaz matrix]

u have uninstall and reinstall the mod

[chrome cosmos]

elle's seasonal buildings, medieval buildings, hudson valley buildings

[dire fractal]

medieval

[dire fractal]

i literally JUST installed them for the first time

but wait what do the other options look like

[chrome cosmos]

can you send a log?

!log

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[chrome cosmos]

you can look them up on nexus! :)

[dire fractal]

ok thx

[worthy prawn]

heyy guys, im dumb and would love to know, where is the north side of ridgeside village ;-;
im missing out on a festival because i cant find it

[chrome cosmos]

next to ezekiel's house, go up to the ridge where the red arrow is

[worthy prawn]

okay thank you that is a big helpp

[topaz matrix]

is that rsv

[chrome cosmos]

yep!

not sure if that map is outdated tbh, i had it saved a long time ago, but the ridge should still be there

[topaz matrix]

you can always ask the rsv discord server

[dire fractal]

@chrome cosmos I picked hudson valley building do I download the files then how do I use it in game

[chrome cosmos]

download the file, unzip it, drag the hudson valley folder into your mods folder

it should show up in your game

[worthy prawn]

yess you're right but i already found it thanks to that map

[dire fractal]

where do I find the mod follder

[chrome cosmos]

(get any mod it requires too)

did you not install smapi yet?

[keen crow]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

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

[keen crow]

[dire fractal]

yeah just a sec

do you have to pay for nexus

[topaz matrix]

no

[topaz matrix]

only if u want fast downloads

Does anyone knows a custom furniture mod that adds only one item

[keen crow]

For just one item? No, sorry Aubrianna. Most furniture mods I know had a few pieces at least

[topaz matrix]

oh

[topaz matrix]

well i found one that adds two cf in one mod

[dire fractal]

is there a video for installing mods

[keen crow]

Probably. Look on youtube

[worthy prawn]

heyy guys, there is this one mod called ferngill revenue service
new season started for me and no money was deduced from my account

i thought the taxes happened on 1st date but i might be wrong

so wanted to confirm

[pine sinew]

Question, can I add the PPJA mods in an existing save without issues?

[chrome cosmos]

you will most likely experience a json shuffle https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Json_Shuffle so, its not recommended to do add any JA items on existing saves unless you're okay with taking a risk

[pine sinew]

so basically back up my save and see what happens first?

and potentially sell all my stuff in my chests?

[chrome cosmos]

ye backing up is recommended but you dont need to sell everything, just the items that get shuffled

[pine sinew]

ight

[chrome cosmos]

for example: you had thunder mayonnaise from a mod but the shuffle made it a flower, you can just dump those

[night osprey]

does the ||horse + ice cream stand|| thing not work with horse appearance mods? or was it patched? Doesn't seem to be working for me oop there we go, was a different spot than the vids were showing, carry on

[pine sinew]

ill screenshot the chests full of items i actually care about first in case they get shuffled

stuff like minerals and other things

[chrome cosmos]

vanilla items are safe from the shuffle as far as i know

[pine sinew]

ah alright

i dont have many modded items i care about yet so i should be fine for the most part then

another question is khadija's recipe shop compatible with stuff like SVE
afaik it just replaces the ice cream stand in any month that isnt summer?

[dire fractal]

actually I think I figured it out.

[proud sable]

Does anybody know a mod that optimises the controls for playing with keyboard only? I remapped the key binds, but there's still certain things I need the mouse for, like closing certain windows or performing an action at certain times, because the remapped secondary keybind isn't working fsr

now that I think of it, being able to navigate through the task bar with shift+arrow keys would be really damn cool

[dire fractal]

Yep, definitely figured it out. just had to shift a few files around.

[proud sable]

smh I was looking for a mod that lets me turn off lamps and somehow ended up on LL again

[glossy quail]

There is a mod that messes up my health bar

What can it be

[proud sable]

messes up in what way?

[chrome cosmos]

you can send a log or remove any mod that has to do with the health and energy bar

[hallow fiber]

My games lagging terribly on the while loading, like loading the game itself not a save file
https://smapi.io/log/5dd54987cf894f529c4f102cecee4ec7

Oh its east scarpe

[shy orbit]

looks like it's missing daisyniko's tilesheets

[hallow fiber]

Oh i didnt even see that as a dependency

Thank you

[shy orbit]

well it doesn't seem to have it as a dependency, at least not as the manifest sort, not sure why. and np

[tired brook]

That error happened deep in the .NET Framework in its thread management (not in SMAPI/game/mod code). I'm not sure what's causing it from the log info; does it happen every time you launch the game?

[golden oxide]

Haha I can't load my save file https://smapi.io/log/11b001c710744a2bb5c98f702188c156 i have no idea what could be wrong

[neat plaza]

maybe?

[hallow fiber]

Yeah i was gonna say

14:29:55    WARN    Content Patcher    SMAPI found an issue with 'Maps\Tent' map load: mod has no tilesheet with ID 'p'. Map replacements must keep the original tilesheets to avoid errors or crashes.

Content patchers having trouble applying quite a few things

[neat plaza]

try uninstalling whatever mod changes the tent @golden oxide

[golden oxide]

linus's tent?

[neat plaza]

mhm

[outer turret]

Initially it was optional. Then it wasnt. Next update it's part of the manifest.

[leaden talon]

hi! i have a problem. i'm playing with 2 friends in coop mode with the mods and i immediately got crash in next 2 minutes of the game. what's the problem could be with the game and smapi, because log got no errors with the mods themselves?
https://smapi.io/log/55e9139638b74747a7cb78105f9e0887

[pine sinew]

Does the Full Shipment achievement require modded crops as well?

or just the ~30 vanilla ones

[neat plaza]

one of you has a mod the others don't

[leaden talon]

will ask them then. thx!

[astral jolt]

can someone help me with vortex not loading the mods?
