[obsidian perch]

should i use SV expanded ?

[high adder]

So I’ve just switched to the 64 bit beta for stardew and got the smapi 64 bit mod, but now stardew won’t launch.. it’s probably something really simple I’m missing but I can’t figure it out, does anyone know?

[hasty charm]

what're you doing to launch it

[high adder]

Just launching it from steam as I always have but now it just instantly crashes

[naive drum]

Any reason why the official beta in particular?

[high adder]

So I could run the game in 64 bit and fix my out of memory crashes

[naive drum]

Use the unofficial 64 bit patch instead.

[high adder]

Oh, the website said that was outdated lol so I wasn’t sure.. thanks I’ll do that

[naive drum]

The official beta has much lower mod compatibility and requires, but does not install, .NET 5

[high adder]

I probably just misunderstood

[naive drum]

When smapi 3.13 comes out, then the unofficial 64 bit will be outdated.

[royal arrow]

You're not wrong, the wiki page does say that. I think they're trying to nudge folks to just wait for the 1.5.5 update or test out the beta.

[naive drum]

:/

[high adder]

Okay.. I’m really sorry to be asking another question, I’m looking all over nexus mods for this patch and I can’t find it.. is it somewhere else? I’ve got a goldfish brain

[naive drum]

And we still dont have a !beta command

It's on the forums

!64bit

[hasty charm]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Migrate_to_64-bit_on_Windows
this page

[high adder]

I’m assuming that by patch you didn’t mean the Linux version right?

[naive drum]

Its an installer that downloads the linux version, then you run it again and it patches it to work on windows

This currently works better than the 1.5.5 beta, but the 1.5.5 beta is still in development (and is only out like this so c# modders can update their code to work on it)

[round steppe]

Hello

I am trying to install the beta 1.13.0 of Smapi

And the installer isn't finding the directory nor doesn't seem to accept any path i give it

I am on MacOS

Fixed it, forget about it.

[median drum]

Hello. Can anyone help me with my corrupted game file? SMAPI log: https://smapi.io/log/97d96f0fae044ed5a61f9d57c4f5da34

[tribal notch]

have you checked what's in the file, does it even contain anything?

[light thorn]

If the XML is corrupt you might be hooped, maybe someone could check the save file. That'd be what you have to share, not just the SMAPI log

[quick crow]

https://smapi.io/log/f5e8e8a0ab964780a9ba8a28d85ff13e

So I was loading the available game saves I had (which took a long time to load) and then both the saves I had got duplicated

I deleted two of them and after I clicked on the one I wanted to play on

THe game crashed

[torn estuary]

https://smapi.io/log/dd8bc6d610884827848550dc0efe2a45 - could someone tell me why id have the grounds two diff colors? ;/ no visual mod should be outdated

[shell jackal]

Is Cute Valley the visual mod you are using?

[quick crow]

Ahh.... I guess I was put under an illusion spell, because my original saves are gone too xD

[torn estuary]

Hmm i have it in there but it shouldnt load last as I'm only really using it for the interiors

[high adder]

So I have the game all updated to 64 bit but now I have no controller support?

[shell jackal]

@torn estuaryHm... It shows you have a LOT of mods to update, so I'd start with that.

[tribal notch]

I don't know what to advise to fix this

[median drum]

ooh I'm looking for someone to do it for me here tho. I've done the solution in here: https://www.reddit.com/r/StardewValley/comments/efso31/save_file_on_game_is_gone_exception_occured/ but still no luck

[torn estuary]

Ahhh ill do tht n update rq

[tribal notch]

as in, you have already tried loading the backup from the previous game day?

[median drum]

Yes. I deleted the 2 files "SaveGameInfo" and my farm name with random numbers and renamed the file with my farm name with the "_old" at the end. I also renamed the SaveGameInfo_old to SaveGameInfo

[tribal notch]

you'll notice on that thread, the only thing mouseypounds is doing is loading the previous day's backup

[storm viper]

I'm using the Ui Info Suite by cdaragorn, and when I pause the game theres an options menu, but I can't click it? Am I missing something here?

[tribal notch]

UI info suite struggles when you change your zoom level

[storm viper]

ahh

[median drum]

Yes I'm aware. It also seems like the OP and I have the same problem

[storm viper]

so just set zoom to default, change settings and then change zoom back?

[tribal notch]

try it and report back... apparently there's also this unofficial update that fixes it https://github.com/Annosz/UIInfoSuite2/releases

[storm viper]

kk thanks

[tribal notch]

it does seem like that, but you also have an additional problem where your backup is broken too?

[quick crow]

Can I convert from 32-bit to the 64-bit version while I have mods installed ?

[tribal notch]

I would take a copy of the mods folder

[median drum]

Yeah I think. All I'm asking is if any kind stranger here could fix my file and I could just upload it to Google Drive or something and they could send it back to me.

[royal arrow]

you could totally suggest a command for 64bit / beta to the junimos o.o

[median drum]

I really do not want to lose my save as my progress there can't be replaced

[tribal notch]

I know... but what I'm saying is, mouseypounds didn't fix anyone's file

[naive drum]

i did...

[royal arrow]

oh lol

[naive drum]

on the 20th

[median drum]

oh what I meant by "fix" is the same thing as mouseypounds did

[quick crow]

I already have it backed up, just in case ...... but it can still work while I have them installed, right ?

[tribal notch]

you just did the same thing that mouseypounds did

[median drum]

yeah but it still didn't work

maybe i've done something wrong

which I don't really know what

forgive me if I'm being hard to deal with btw

[tribal notch]

if you zip it all up I'll have a look

[median drum]

alright

[tribal notch]

but don't get your hopes up unfortunately

[tribal notch]

far as I know yes

[tribal notch]

if you've already "deleted" anything try and un-delete it for me

it's a bit rash of ole mouseypounds to suggest just deleting the problem save

[elder shadow]

Hi all, I'm relatively new to mods. Is Routine#8715 or Platonymous still around in this server? I'm trying to use their PyTK mod but I'm having trouble with it. They said to message here to find them for help.

[median drum]

how do I do that? I looked for the deleted zip files in the recycle bin and I have not seen any. Is there any location for specific zip files?

[royal arrow]

Routine can still be pinged in this server but I'm not sure how active they are. You can describe your issue and share your log, someone might be able to help

!log

[native dragon]

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

[high adder]

Has anyone been able to use controllers on 64 bit? I only want to play if I can use controllers for couch co op with my friends

[elder shadow]

Oh thank you!!

[tribal notch]

it's not different to deleting anything else... windows is not my area but did you empty the trash at any point or not?

[median drum]

nope

[high adder]

Did I completely mess it up?

[median drum]

oh wait I just updated my SMAPI and the files that I deleted went back. I'll try to zip it up

[tribal notch]

from what I've gathered, controllers on 64bit is problematic but not impossible

some experiences: https://old.reddit.com/r/SMAPI/comments/ocawzr/fixing_the_stardew_64_controller_lag_solution/

[high adder]

Yeah.. I’m giving up on it lol I’ll just restart every couple days to avoid the oom error but I appreciate everyone’s help

[solemn iron]

You can take note of what you have and item spawn what goes missing with an item spawner mod. I take screenshots of my chests before I add major content mods.

[rigid locust]

whenever I go into the wizard tower I'm unable to actually get in. It just puts me in the empty space below the inside and I'm unable to get in at all to interact with anything. any suggestions?

[median drum]

Is this okay?

@tribal notch

[rigid locust]

for reference of where I spawn and which tiles are which

[lapis void]

!log sounds like a conflict between map mods, SVE and something else would be my guess

[native dragon]

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

[rigid locust]

I feel like this is gonna give you an aneurysm

if you couldn't tell, I'm very new to this lol

[shy orbit]

it's better to upload it to the linked site, but anyway, here's the problem probably [21:19:37 ERROR Content Patcher] Two content packs want to load the 'Maps\WizardHouse' asset (Romanceable Rasmodius and Stardew Valley Expanded). Neither will be applied. You should remove one of the content packs, or ask the authors about compatibility. [21:19:37 TRACE Content Patcher] Affected patches: Romanceable Rasmodius > Load Maps\WizardHouse, Stardew Valley Expanded > Load Maps\WizardHouse [21:19:37 TRACE SMAPI] VendingMachine edited Maps\WizardHouse., romanceable rasmodius and SVE are conflicting on it ("VendingMachine" is also doing something with the map, but it's not necessarily a problem)

[rigid locust]

ok, so what would I do to fix that? Take out RR?

[shy orbit]

that would fix it yeah. there is another conflict with wizard portraits Two content packs want to load the 'Portraits\Wizard' asset (Stardew Valley Expanded and WizardPortrait). Neither will be applied. You should remove one of the content packs, or ask the authors about compatibility.

[rigid locust]

ok yeah I know how to fix that one relatively easily so that's good. thank you so much :3

[quick crow]

I just downloaded the 64-bit version of the game ...... but it got installed in my disk C

Is there a way to change the directory to somewhere else, without possibly messing things up ?

[tribal notch]

if you do the mouseypounds fix properly your save will load

the most recent save is very broken but the backup is fine

you need to rename them when SDV is running but not on the load-game screen

if SDV is not running, steam will undo your changes on next start

[median drum]

oh so I'll do everything mouseypounds said while on the title screen?

is there hope for my file?

[tribal notch]

rename MoonDust_286542285 to MoonDust_286542285_broken, and SaveGameInfo to SaveGameInfo_broken

then remove _old from the other two files

while on title screen

[median drum]

alright alright

okay i'll try that

[tribal notch]

renaming is safer than deleting if you ask me

[median drum]

got it

[tribal notch]

this is Casa del Gian, right?

[median drum]

yess

omg

[tribal notch]

no problem then

[median drum]

it still didn't show up

do I have to relaunch it?

i did everything, adding _broken to the two files and removing _old from the other two as well

[tribal notch]

what you mean still didn't show up?

[median drum]

no file on the loading screen

[tribal notch]

it won't hurt to try relaunching

quit, check the files are still in their right place, go again

[median drum]

I'll try relaunching it

oh wait

I used the wrong zip

the files i deleted didnt come back

[tribal notch]

also make sure you're putting them in the correct saves folder

[torn estuary]

https://smapi.io/log/27133a8be2ef47ea88cfe911c33b299a I updated- any ideas?

[tribal notch]

if you aren't sure, start a new game with a different name, then find that game

[median drum]

here's the file @tribal notch

that's the file from yesterday, which is the day my save broke

[tribal notch]

both the zips contain your farm from Fall 16 year 3

and since I can't get the _2 zip to load, I suggest loading the other

[median drum]

yeah but the zip i sent earlier was the save from today, which had to original 4 files. the _2 zip has the two files which I renamed/deleted what mouseypads said

[tribal notch]

ok how bout this

this one loads fine, start game, unzip into saves folder, load

[median drum]

i'll try that

hopefully it works

[tribal notch]

it will look something like that when correctly unzipped

I'll just be over here talking to this fine lady

[median drum]

is it supposed to look like this?

[tribal notch]

you need to unzip it

and, are you sure that's your saves folder?

[median drum]

oh wait

so I unzip all the files from the moondust3, then place those files into the moondust save file from yesterday?

[sacred marten]

For some reason I’m having issues with my tea saplings.. they seem to not want to grow. After waiting 2 in game months and nothing happened i made them grow with a instant finish mod. I waited another in game 3 months and it don’t produce tea leaves at all. I don’t understand what’s the issue because i don’t have any errors about it.(my coffee produce just fine if that matters).

[upper ember]

!log Apparently these talented people can spot things regarding possible problems even without any actual errors popping up, so it'd be useful to post a log

[native dragon]

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

[tribal notch]

unzip the contents and show me what you get including any enclosing folder

you should get an enclosing folder MoonDust3_286542285 containing two files MoonDust3_286542285 and SaveGameInfo

you put that whole lot into your saves folder

[median drum]

i got two folders

[tribal notch]

ok, and am I looking at your saves folder or your downloads or something else?

you need to move the folder to your saves like so

[median drum]

save backups

oh so should I move those two folders into the moondust file the day my file crashed?

[tribal notch]

I don't know either but sharing your log might help

[tribal notch]

no, not into the moondust file, into your stardew saves folder

[median drum]

oh yeah it's there

[tribal notch]

no that's save backups

[median drum]

oh is the saves folder different?

I dont see any saves folder except save backups

[tribal notch]

where did you get your copy of stardew valley from?

[median drum]

well, im currently using the pirated version but i'm planning to buy the game soon

oh is it this one?

[tribal notch]

go buy it now

[median drum]

im broke

so is that the right file?

wait

i did all of that changes in the save backup winrar files

not in the actual stardew valley save of mine

oh my god @tribal notch

first of all thank you so much for your help and time

i'm now playing on my file

thank you so much

[tribal notch]

I feel sad that you haven't supported the author

I hope you make that right

[median drum]

I will eventually

the game has been on my wishlist for a few weeks now since I started playing it

i'll buy it on my bday soon so I can support the Ape

[cobalt lake]

I would heavily suggest not to say you're pirating anything anywhere because yk, illegal and all ^^"

[tribal notch]

the karmic burden of lying to me about it would have been worse

[agile canopy]

Yo. So I installed a bunch of mods onto a fresh install and the game is freezing upon startup 😦

I can hear the audio, but the screen is frozen on the developer's intro card

[upper ember]

Yeah, it can cause freezing sometimes.. As long as there's no errors in SMAPI, it should be fine to just not touch it, and see if it'll load itself

[agile canopy]

The SMAPI terminal seems to be freaking out with red text. Could this be evidence of a problem?

[faint lintel]

mining empire

tell me u hate going to the mines without telling me you hate going to the mines

[agile canopy]

So I've tried to fix it. I think the problem is that it seems like the mods Coffee Shoppe and Artesan Valley are adding duplicates of a few items

Is there an easy way around this?

[tribal notch]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[tribal notch]

duplicate items won't cause a freeze

[agile canopy]

Sure. GIve me a few seconds...

[faint temple]

okay my game will not load in fully nor save without redlining no matter what i do or change i even tried to reinstall.

https://smapi.io/log/2e3aaa555b0a400cb2a2fb6c35cf1991

i load into the single player no problem but multiplayer it does that everytime

[tribal notch]

you're running out of memory
!oom

[tribal notch]

!oom

[native dragon]

@faint temple OutOfMemoryException errors on Windows mean that your game ran out of memory. The game only has access to a small part of your computer's memory by default. See this page for more info and common fixes: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#OutOfMemoryException_errors_.28Windows_only.29.

[agile canopy]

Here is the log:

https://smapi.io/log/d8cd8aa20a2749caad83facfa50d07eb

[faint temple]

again even if i disable almost all my mods it does that in multiplayer only

in single player no issue however im trying to set up a game with someone

[tribal notch]

your stardew aquarium is misbehaving... are you able to delete it and try loading?

[agile canopy]

Sure...

It looks like that solved it!

[tribal notch]

I'm looking at a log with 80 mods and 250 content packs, if that's "disabled almost all your mods"...

[outer turret]

You need DaisyNiko tilesheets

[agile canopy]

Should I attempt to run the game with a different version of Stardew Aquarium or should I just cut that mod out of my game?

[outer turret]

@agile canopy you need DaisyNiko tikesheets

[agile canopy]

Thanks. What does that do?

[faint temple]

@tribal notchseeing as i normally run it perfectly fine with 317 mods and no problem that is most of my mods disabled lol

[outer turret]

Adds more flowers

In the maps

[agile canopy]

Does Aquarium require that?

[outer turret]

Yes

[agile canopy]

Let me try it now...

[outer turret]

They have pretty maps

[tribal notch]

survey says yes

[shy orbit]

@agile canopy you'll need to remove the espresso machine mod or artisan valley (better to keep artisan valley). you have some other duplicate items too, deleting and reinstalling even more recipes and fresh meat probably fixes it

[agile canopy]

Is it necesary to solve duplicate item errors? Does it affect how the game runs?

[faint temple]

if you have the seperate packs as well as the mega pack active it will give you those duplicates like that

[shy orbit]

yep, it'll break the game unless there has been some changes to that

[agile canopy]

Seems like this solved the freezing problem for Aquarium 😄 THanks

[tribal notch]

will it really break?

I would wait and see :p

[agile canopy]

It seems like the game is running well. If something blows up I'll try to solve that first

Thanks guys! 😄

[shy orbit]

why?

just solve the errors. you have merges of different versions of the ppja mods anyway, so that would be taken care of also

[agile canopy]

Prob should...

Fine. Why not... haha

[vernal badge]

what does ppja mean

[faint temple]

Project Populate JsonAssets

[vernal badge]

oh

json assets

[twin pasture]

how to make mapedit (map editor) and TMXL buildables compatible? my buildings disappear (they are still on the map but its behind the map edit tiles i think) and i have to delete and put them on the map again when i restart the game.

[agile canopy]

Yo. Real quick (hopefully). I noticed that items aren't showing the stack number...

How can I tell what may be causing this bug?

I found a copy of the original cursor files, which are supposed to be an easy fix to this bug maybe. Where am I supposed to place this file? Content?

[shy orbit]

!reset resetting the game files is the easiest way, and really mods that replace game files shouldn't be used anymore

[native dragon]

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 :)

[agile canopy]

Thanks

I'll give it a try

Will this clear out any mods?

[shy orbit]

only those that are installed by replacing game files, the mods in the mods folder are safe

[agile canopy]

ok

[bitter plinth]

So I’ve been lagging yeah..I have a lot of mods so I thought it was that but when I start a new save file with the same mods there’s no lag so I guess it’s the amount of objects I have on my farm like kegs or animals that’s making stuff lag. Is there a way to reduce lag from those sources or a way to turn off the animation for craftables?

[tribal notch]

big vanilla farms don't lag, so it's your objects x your mods

[vernal crane]

does anyone recommend ui mods and portraits

hi i have question - is any way to get shaders for stardew valley?

[vernal badge]

huh

shaders do not exist fro stardew valley

@dire fractal ^

if you are asking for recolors the simply type "recolour" or "recolor" on nexus

[dire fractal]

no recolor is not intresting

i tested some mods with recolors and i dont like this

[vernal badge]

ou

oh*

shaders do not exist

for stardew

[dire fractal]

but for me its great idea

[neat plaza]

there's only a single one
and i cant remember the name

[main ingot]

shaders use the reshade engine

so youd wanna google that

[twin pasture]

[dusky canyon]

that's very strange

they don't disappear if you don't put them on map edited tiles?

(Map Edit-ed)

There are more people with this problem.

From so far what I have seen Platonymous (the mod author) comes back like ~once a month? to update some mods. I suggest posting a bug report on https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1820?tab=posts

[twin pasture]

okay thank you! until then ig i will not be using MapEdit

where do i get the smapi log?

nvm i got it

uhh theres no SMAPI-crash.txt

no SMAPI-latest.txt either

just a bunch of numbers and then two of my farmers names

maybe im not launching the game right

[neat plaza]

that's your saves folder

[exotic pagoda]

ope

then what do i do?

[neat plaza]

send a screenshot of the folder

[exotic pagoda]

ok

Screenshot buttons broken here’s a picture

[neat plaza]

oh thats
weird

try running the game without vortex

[exotic pagoda]

wait how do i run the game with vortex

ive never used vortex before

ive just been running it with steam

[shell jackal]

I'm sorry if this comes off as rude. But you did run the smapi installer yes? And you set up steam to run smapi to start the game?

[neat plaza]

_ _

[exotic pagoda]

it dosent, but idk i just downloaded everything onto vortex

i didnt run anything

[shell jackal]

That's the problem then. You have to run the smapi installer, and then launch the game through smapi

[exotic pagoda]

ohh

how do i do that?

[neat plaza]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

[exotic pagoda]

ah

[shell jackal]

Thank you Pillow. I don't know all the commands

[exotic pagoda]

ok thanks

[shell jackal]

I've seen people on here say using vortex can cause installation issues with mods, and sometimes when updating them. You'd be best to install/update all your mods manually

[exotic pagoda]

ok

[shell jackal]

It can be a trial, believe me. When Pathos goes on an updating spree...... xD It takes me a while to update them all manually.

[exotic pagoda]

lol

theres a mods folder and experiencebars is already in it

me is confused

[shell jackal]

Okay. You need to set up steam to launch through smapi

[exotic pagoda]

ok

oml theres a pineapples everywhere mod

[shell jackal]

There's a mod for almost anything

[exotic pagoda]

amazing

ok i think ive almost got it

it says this SMAPI is installed! If you use Steam, set your launch options to enable achievements (see smapi.io/install):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

If you don't use Steam, launch StardewModdingAPI.exe in your game folder to play with mods.\

[unreal raptor]

Yes, I can agree that Vortex makes things more complicated. It’s more for games that don’t have their own mod manager, haha

[shell jackal]

You're on the right track. Just put that file string into the launch options for stardew and you should be good to go

[exotic pagoda]

ok done

launching now

its still not working

hec

[shell jackal]

Did the smapi console show up at least?

[exotic pagoda]

no

what does it look like?

[shell jackal]

Similar to the screen that came up when you installed smapi

[keen crow]

Did you put the launch options into your steam?

[exotic pagoda]

ye

[torn estuary]

Jay ! 🥺 oml

[exotic pagoda]

it was the same as my cmd! console

[torn estuary]

Would u be willing to help me🥲

[keen crow]

You didn't close it did you?

[keen crow]

Whatcha need?

[exotic pagoda]

uhhhhhhhhhh

bruh

[keen crow]

Don't close it. You need to keep it open

[exotic pagoda]

yea i closed it

[keen crow]

If you close it, the game will close as well

[exotic pagoda]

ok

so i guess i have to open it again?

[keen crow]

Yep

[exotic pagoda]

aight i opend it

[keen crow]

If the launch options have been put in correctly, when you launch Stardew from steam it'll first open a black window, and then the game

[torn estuary]

Having bad textures but literally everything should be updated here lemme get the stuff one sec

[exotic pagoda]

ok i left it open this time but it still didnt work

te black window didnt open either

[keen crow]

Can you post a screenshot of what your launch options look like please?

[exotic pagoda]

it just has C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe in it

[shell jackal]

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

You need that whole line, quotation marks and all

[keen crow]

Yep, you need to do it exactly like Amariel posted

[exotic pagoda]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

damn

THE BLACK WINDOW OPENED!!!!!!!!!11

[keen crow]

Woop

[exotic pagoda]

oh god why is the chicken a pufferfish now

[shell jackal]

Pufferchick

[keen crow]

It's the SMAPI chicken

[exotic pagoda]

does the spikes hurt the chicken part?

[torn estuary]

@keen crow

https://smapi.io/log/27133a8be2ef47ea88cfe911c33b299a

[keen crow]

Right facing chicken will launch SMAPI, so Stardew with mods
The left facing chicken will launch Stardew without mods

[exotic pagoda]

THE EXPERIENCE BARS ARE THERE

[torn estuary]

its happening on like some beach areas and on ladders itll be the stardew yellow

[exotic pagoda]

thank you all so much!!!!!!!!

[torn estuary]

instead of rosier colors

[exotic pagoda]

finally, ultimate exp

[keen crow]

It looks like Rosier hasn't got a recolour for those parts of the cliffs. Might be non-vanilla cliffs?

[torn estuary]

:(((((((((((((((((((((( nooo

[keen crow]

If you can find where other cliffs are from, should be a easy photoshop job

[torn estuary]

ah wdym?

is vamossi in here? looks like someone else said the same thing on the nexus form

[keen crow]

They look pretty much like the vanilla ones, so they're probably just on someone's own tilesheet. So you should be able to just ... copy and paste the rosier ones onto the tilesheet

[torn estuary]

hmm ok

ill try tht

[twin pasture]

tried editing a custom map using tiled, i think i messed something up cause the map cant load anymore once i got the mod installed from the original place again to reverse my mistake lol https://smapi.io/log/916c2ed3b152486a9b8ede8201924b80 (unofficial 64 bit, moved it to a separate folder cause i removed the depot downloader)

[blazing solar]

First try at a heavy modded save, the game can't save at the end of the day Here's the smapi log : https://smapi.io/log/6a208e1b3fc04617b053276cdb2e6684
From what I understood, it could simply be that there's too many mods

[soft widget]

Are there any mods that allow for combat between players in a multiplayer game?

[minor saddle]

Can I nest mods inside one more layer of folders for organization?

Lol, y'all got bots trying scam people with CS:GO links in a farming simulator discord? Wack

[outer turret]

What's CS GO?

[minor saddle]

A popular game on Steam. There's a lot of bots on Discord now days that are using fake links to scam people out of their steam info

[outer turret]

Yeh I guessed that

[upper ember]

Yes you can nest folders, but try to keep the names of them short and sweet. If the folder names gets too long, then Smapi will be unable to read anything within it

[minor saddle]

Ok, thank you!

[faint lintel]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/631?tab=description

does this mod work?

anyone know?

[minor saddle]

Considering the type of mod it is, and that it's three years old, it probably won't work. But, no way better to see than to download it and try it out.

[upper ember]

Look in the "posts" section of outdated mods, you often find people that have made unofficial updates of it or someone who noticed someone did and posted the link to it. It doesn't take much effort to look
https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/unofficial-pelican-fiber-update-for-1-5.162553/

[dire fractal]

You can't use qf or other mods by purplingcat in 1.5.5

[oblique forge]

@dire fractal you’ve been posting multiple times in both modding channels. What’s the issue exactly?

[dire fractal]

Just letting people know because she won't update it for 1.5.5 when it comes out

[oblique forge]

The author would announce it if they want to. You can answer that if someone using purplingcat’s mods ask why they can’t use it. No need to paste it around multiple times without prompt

[sacred marten]

@pine fjord is sterling available to download now or is he a work in progress? Sorry if tagging isn’t allowed.. I’m just really impressed with your work on him 😅

[pine fjord]

Don't worry, idm pings in the slightest !!

He's still in development but I post betas in the East Scarpe and Modding Community discord

I'm working on the final outfits for release and then I'll probably post a beta tonight actually

[sacred marten]

Tysm! I really appreciate all the work you guys put in!! I’m going to download him now💕

[pine fjord]

He DOES require the latest version of ES so

its important grabbing that from the ES discord as well

[sacred marten]

Ok thanks for the heads up ☺️

[pine fjord]

Np np !!! thank you for the kind words

[sacred marten]

You deserve it!!🥺💕💕

[ripe hound]

is there a mod that auto updates all my mods, i haven't played sv in a while and i think updating my mod folder is going to take a while

[upper ember]

There are mod loaders like Vortex, however it is known to mess things up a bunch when it tries to auto install things, resulting in massive errors and headaches, so I think it's easier to bite the bullet and update things manually. I had to update over a 100 mods at once a month or so back because I stopped playing for a few months, and it really was not as much of a pain as people like to claim it is

[royal arrow]

Agreed, it's tedious but it's worth avoiding the phantom issues some people have with mod managers

[upper ember]

What I did personally, was take screenshots of the list, hopped onto Nexus, and typed in the four number ID at the end of the links to go directly to the mod page. Was faster than trying to search for the mods in the search box and have to wait for it to think and actually load the mod before you can click on it

[royal arrow]

You can also parse your log for this too at https://smapi.io/log , since it includes hyperlinks at the top of the log to any mod that needs an update

[lusty roost]

Hi ! Is this the right channel to try and diagnose why my game has crashed via SMAPI? I'm getting a crash when saving at night with the log 'System.OutOfMemoryException' - which is very odd seeing as it's only using 2GB out of a possible 64GB RAM in my system. Very peculiar.

I have the link to my full SMAPI log if anyone is interested? (Assuming I'm in the right channel!)

[robust bison]

!oom

[native dragon]

@lusty roost OutOfMemoryException errors on Windows mean that your game ran out of memory. The game only has access to a small part of your computer's memory by default. See this page for more info and common fixes: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#OutOfMemoryException_errors_.28Windows_only.29.

[lusty roost]

Thanks Bot - that's literally my answer lol

I didn't realise the game was 32bit

[robust bison]

the next mini update will make it officially 64 bit

[supple talon]

Yeah, you either run linux version on windows or try the 1.5.5 beta

[lusty roost]

How have people found mod compatibility with the beta? I'll enable it now if it is fairly favourable

[supple talon]

Personally after switching to linux I haven't had any oom issues

[obsidian spear]

Anyone know any mods that would allow me to place wall decorations anywhere? I wanna use some wall pipes to decorate the sewer

[tribal notch]

it's shite... 60% at last test

[naive drum]

Use the unofficial 64 bit which should be linked in the wiki article, it has near 100% mod compatibilitt

[lusty roost]

Oh dear

I'll do the wiki method for now then

Thanks all

[naive drum]

As opposed to 1.5.5 which is currently compat hell

[upper ember]

Yeah don't use the 1.5.5 beta right now, it's for modders to get an early start

And to test for bugs and such

[small sorrel]

iv gotten a mod named Everfarm and the other things that is required and went into the game through smapi but i cant see the map on the main menu im new to mods so i dont know how most of this works

[naive drum]

Everfarm replaces an existing farm map

It should say which one on the mod page

[small sorrel]

i loaded into 4 corners and its the same

[naive drum]

Might not replace 4 corners theb

Or uh
Do you have content patcher

[small sorrel]

i have all of the things required for it

[naive drum]

Ok so check on the mod page to see which farm map it replaces by default

[small sorrel]

it says 4 corners

[naive drum]

[native dragon]

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

should i send u the url?

Post it here

https://smapi.io/log/2738062198e74cbbbc2e9fe5d3cefb7e

[tribal notch]

did you... actually install everfarm?

[small sorrel]

yea

nvm

i swear i did

sorry

[naive drum]

It looks like you forgot to pur it I the mods.folder

It happens

I've done that

[supple talon]

oof

[naive drum]

I've also accidentally installed mods to the wrong mods folder. Like checking a smapi log for some problem I was having, only to find that theres been some celeste mods hanging out in my stardew mods folder for weeks

Anyways delete that whoops fourcorners save and make a new one with everfarm actually installes

Else you'll have problems with debris

[small sorrel]

kk thx 😄

is there any mods that lets u see the whole farm?

[naive drum]

Theres a screenshot function at the.bottom od the options menu that by default screenshots the entire map toure on

[small sorrel]

kk thx

[lusty roost]

Thanks for the advice all. Got the game to now run in 64bit. Here's hoping that cures my problems and also makes the game perform better!

[obsidian spear]

So... I modded a map and even used a mod to cut down bushes... and yet I still cannot remove this single shrubbery. Anyone have ideas?

[sacred marten]

Anyone know of a mod that lets you build hearts with your livestock quicker such as brushing after their daily petting or giving them treats?

[charred rock]

Anyone know a mod that shows the tiles that the scarecrow protects

[lethal mantle]

Ui info suite does that and a ton of other usefull stuff

[obsidian spear]

Data layers, or UI Info Suite

[lethal mantle]

its all configurable

[upper ember]

UI Info Suite, the original doesn't work with everyone so there's also UI Info Suite 2'

[obsidian spear]

I use data layers for scarecrows, since it shows the larger one's radius too

[obsidian spear]

Theres an info suite 2??

[upper ember]

They have it on.. Github, I think?

[obsidian spear]

But... why not just update the original??

[upper ember]

I think it's an unofficial update / successor
https://github.com/Annosz/UIInfoSuite2

[royal arrow]

The only one I can think of is Animal Sitter but that's to automate the petting, and it's all or nothing on the heart gain. So it doesn't speed up the rate, it just maxes you out right away. I think you would need the unofficial update too

[lethal mantle]

i still use the one from nexus and it works

why do i need 2?

[royal arrow]

This here

[upper ember]

Some people the original is broken for. The original does have a lot of bugs

[royal arrow]

if you're using the first and it's fine, then you're good

but ye Pandora said it wasn't working for everyone

[upper ember]

I personally use the original, but I also don't change my UI size, which is usually the thing bugged for people

[lethal mantle]

ye i've never done that

[dusky canyon]

so I've got a weird question

do baby ducks exist in vanilla sdv

[chrome cosmos]

when you play modded so much that you forget whats vanilla and what isnt kdbdn

[dusky canyon]

YES

[chrome cosmos]

i can check for you one sec

[dusky canyon]

I can't find any in the game files

but adopt 'n skin has baby ducks

but if they dont exist in-game then idk if AT accepts them lol

[chrome cosmos]

wiki mentions baby ducks but i also cant find them in the game files

[dusky canyon]

why must CA put stuff not in their category

[flint panther]

baby ducks use the same sprites as baby chickens iirc

[dusky canyon]

wha-

thats very nice

thank you!

[patent bluff]

hey any idea why the new smapi update is not finding the directory that the previous version was just in?

[naive drum]

new smapi update?

[tired brook]

Which SMAPI version are you trying to install, and are you using the normal version of the game or the opt-in game beta?

[patent bluff]

normal version and the 13.1 i think it was for smapi

[tired brook]

SMAPI 1.13.0-beta is only for the beta version of the game. Installing SMAPI 3.12.5 instead should fix that.

[patent bluff]

the problem is my mods wont work without 1.13

[naive drum]

switch to the non-beta versions

whyyyyyyy do we not yet have a !beta command.

[patent bluff]

howww do I do that? I run stardew through modrop

[naive drum]

going to the moddrop site and clicking download and clicking the non-default version, because for some reason moddrop made the beta versions the defaults when they got mirrored from nexus

on that note @tired brook the beta versions are the defaults on moddrop which is one reason why there has been so many people being bit by this beta which still doesnt have a nice bot command to explain the situtaion

[upper ember]

Bot command, please

[naive drum]

i suggested it two weeks ago...it still does nto exist

[royal matrix]

hello , I play stardew valley and something went wrong after I downloaded the update. None of my mods work and there are 8 black lines in the middle of my farm. Can you help? Thanks for your time.

[patent bluff]

you'd think he'd immedietly adress it considering how many people use smapi to play with mods

[naive drum]

im not sure he was aware of it

iirc he uses moddrop's "automatically mirror nexus uploads" feature

[shy orbit]

if you downloaded the beta version of the game, then it's best to downgrade back to the non-beta, same for smapi and any mods you updated

[frank solstice]

Does anyone know how to get any mod for xbox

Like chat commands or even the item menu?

[naive drum]

[frank solstice]

Why

[royal matrix]

Thank you

[hoary musk]

There's no console support for modding

[naive drum]

Console cert limits iirc

[patent bluff]

sooooo. now its saying smapi can't load the game exucable

[frank solstice]

Iirc?

[naive drum]

[patent bluff]

no idea wtf I did wrong but now it just refuses to load

[naive drum]

You're running smapi 3.12.5 and stardew 1.5.4 right

BFAV stands for Better Farm Animal Variety, a mod by Paritee which lets you add new breeds of animals to live in coops and barns.

[small sorrel]

yea i was thinkin bout that

[naive drum]

in the Requirements tab on Nexus, there's two sections - one for "Requirements of this mod" and one for "Mods that require this mod"

[small sorrel]

what about off site requirements

[naive drum]

theres a modding wiki with reclists

stardewmoddingwiki iirc

[exotic pagoda]

does anyone know that mod that shows your exp in a small bar in the bottom right corner that switches between whatever activity your doing thats not very flashy and is also brown?

or maybe a light beige

i remember seeing it in a video and saying that that was the mod that i wanted

it also showed you how much exp you got over your head

[dusky canyon]

I have that but forgot the name

[royal arrow]

I see this Experience Updates mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/7581
It's intended to work with Experience Bars https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/509

not sure if those are what you're looking for

[tired brook]

That's an issue with ModDrop's sync. I manually went through every mod I had on ModDrop and switched the default to the non-beta versions... then ModDrop switched them all back.

[tired brook]

One issue is that we're in a bit of a transitional situation; mod compatibility is improving with each SMAPI update, and the next SMAPI beta in a day or two should fix 92% of the mods that are still broken.

[tired brook]

I haven't heard of UI Info Suite 2 before. UI Info Suite is a drop-in continuation of UI Mod Suite though.

Looking at the UI Info Suite 2 GitHub, it seems to just be UI Info Suite with some updates/improvements.

[tired brook]

(@naive drum Another change that may help is that SMAPI 3.12.6 will let mods prepare for the beta while still being compatible with Stardew Valley 1.5.4, so there'll only be one version that covers both for most of my mods + spacechase0's mods soon.)

[naive drum]

that'll be good

less people being bit by the beta

oh that reminds me

@weary hill PathosChild is having beta versions of his mods being set as the default by ModDrop, despite manually setting them as non-default; he has nexus sync enabled

[mint zealot]

Hi! For anyone who has the [PPJA] Fresh Meat mod, are you able to figure out how to obtain the '||Genetically Engineered Yeast||'? I can't find its crafting recipe, any machine that produces it or shops that sell it in its content.json

[faint temple]

so heres a question for yall. have any of you had an issue with smapi reverting back to the .2 version?

https://gyazo.com/7127989fd3836d36bbfab51f9dc2dd99

yesterday it was on the most current. now all the sudden im on .2 again..

[tired brook]

Do you use Vortex, or do you install SMAPI manually?

[faint temple]

both

it ws how i was taught to mod stardew.

manually first then place in vortex for it to actually work

but last night i was on .5 even have a screenshot of it

[tired brook]

I've noticed Vortex often messes with the game/SMAPI files randomly (e.g. it might delete a game file when removing a random mod), so I'd recommend only installing SMAPI itself manually.

[faint temple]

okay then ill remove it from vortex. but would that make it revert like this?

[tired brook]

Did you add/update/remove any mods through Vortex since yesterday?

[faint temple]

no. nothing added. my game has been messing up for a few days now it wont allow me to save so ive been trying to figure out which mod messed it up like before. nothing has been added since 4 days ago

[tired brook]

I don't see any reason it would get reverted in that case. Is it possible you have multiple game folders?

[faint temple]

when i installed .5 i made sure everything else was deleted and the older versions rezipped for if i ever needed to revert again like before.

[tired brook]

No idea what happened then. 🤔

[faint temple]

i deleted smapi in my vortex.

[dire fractal]

anyone in here know any mods that make fruitbats appear in the bat cave, yknow just for visuals?

[shy orbit]

the dna synthesizer should produce it when you put any dna and sugar in it if i'm reading the ProducerRules.json correctly

[faint temple]

@tired brooki deleted it and reinstalled .5 seems to be find now. but im not sure why it reverted. should i delete the older versions i have just to be safe?

[tired brook]

You don't really need to keep them anyway, since you can redownload all the older version from SMAPI's mod page. They shouldn't hurt anything though.

[faint temple]

ill delete them then just to be safe.

[hoary musk]

I was looking at some of the Warns from SMAPI, 3 of them involved Content Patcher. Something about the tilesheet. What does that mean?

Here is the log: https://smapi.io/log/734b43fb43914ee3bcb0ac76d5cae934

[shy orbit]

it's a problem with how the map replacements were made, it should be fixed by the modder. you can also do it yourself but it requires some knowledge of map modding https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Maps#.22mod_reordered_the_original_tilesheets.22

[hoary musk]

I have no real knowledge of map modding, I'm not sure if its being maintained or not. I tried looking at compatibility in SMAPI.io but I couldn't find anything.

It hasn't crashed on me but that doesn't mean it won't crash

The biggest one I'm worried about is Creative Warehouse Shed, I like that one the most. Last thing I read when I looked at posts on Nexus, there was supposed to be an update that would fix that but nothing ever came up.

[patent abyss]

I can't mod for booty but I really want my progress back

I've been out of the sdv and modding scene for a few months now, have there been any major updates to mods or SMAPI that reduce their load times?

I’m using level extender + prestige mod and I pressed P to drop it down to 10 so i could prestige it but it just dropped my skill down to 0 and didnt give me a prestige point and I can’t prestige the skill either? When i try to level the skill it also just creates a giant long exp bar everytime I get experience? Any way to fix or to at least revert it back

[shy orbit]

have you tried deleting the SVE install and reinstalling?

[timber venture]

wait

im using vortex

[stiff fjord]

Looks like you deleted your manifest.json file.

Might need a fresh install of SVE

[shy orbit]

ah. it seems to happen sometimes with vortex, it deleting some mod files

[stiff fjord]

there should be an auto response to any mention of vortex - Dont use vortex

[timber venture]

nvm i forgot to reinstall SVe im just dumb

i am face plaming so hard

Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? The camera doesn't follow the player and only reorients itself when I open a menu. It was fine then suddenly stopped working ( please ping me when you respond!)

[vague cove]

how should i fix json scramble?

should i just sell the items?

[naive drum]

yeh just sell them

[vague cove]

ok thanks. it's early in the save so it doesn't matter too much

[naive drum]

@robust bison looks like custom spouse patio is having problems - try updating it, and any mods that use it

[robust bison]

thanks

[shy olive]

thats weird, An error occurred in the base update loop: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Maybe something with Custom Spouse Patio? seems like that one is causing some game loop problems as well

[robust bison]

I'm just glad it's not NPCML

[forest jackal]

NPCML?

[robust bison]

it was being a pain in the ass for months for me

[tame gale]

my map wont work, could someone help me out?

!log

[native dragon]

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

[naive drum]

and also a little more od a detailed description of the error

like, is your map the wrong colour? does it instantly close the menu with a SMAPI error?

do you expect to see NPC heads there, and find they're not there, or up in the corner, or there twice?

[blazing solar]

Animal need water and animal husbandry

[sacred marten]

Thanks! @blazing solar …Also I’m experiencing a glitch. My farmers son look like a vanilla child(i have NPC child for SVE installed). I thought maybe i had to wait a bit before he turned into a NPC. At the luau he turned into the NPC so i figured great but as soon as it was over he went back vanilla. Do anyone know what’s the issue? This was an issue before and after i updated.

[outer turret]

Child to npc plays weird.

[robust bison]

I'm about to go apeshit, has anyone else experienced errors with pathing?

hmmm interesting, I had weird issues with getting my boy toddler sprite to edit too. The girl worked fine, the boy just wouldn't work no matter what I did.

Yea.. weird, everything seems to be working except his at home sprite. He changes to his correct form at events.

His sprite even shows up here too

somethings wrong with Tractor Sounds, and also you should update cute valley pink if you can

[sacred marten]

Ok so i restarted my game and it fixed him but now he has a doppelgänger 😭🤣

[robust sleet]

The multiple spouses mod

[tribal notch]

try Warp Snitch if still making you craycray

[sacred marten]

Okay idk how but everything is working properly.. thanks to everyone who responded!

[outer turret]

That's just something you'll have to get used to I'm afraid.

It's one of child to NPCs known issues.

I moved my bed up highernsi the doppelganger was mostly hidden by the bed. Sometimes it comes out anyway

[royal hull]

I have no idea why this is happening: https://smapi.io/log/7c99f0ce64cb43d3b0165be4ba164dfd The log shows no errors, but after everything loads and it says we can update 2 mods, there's a line that says [S_API] SteamAPI_Init(): Loaded '/home/bobby/.steam/debian-installation/linux64/steamclient.so' OK, then a bunch of other stuff that comes up too fast for me to see it and catch it, and I don't see it in the log. Is there something wrong with the Steam Client?

[royal hull]

I reinstalled Mono for Linux, restarted the machine, and it seems to have worked.

[lilac berry]

The doppelganger of the NPC child for SVE will disappear if you leave your house then reenter it. After that it shouldn't reappear until you restart the game.

[royal hull]

So, nvr mind. 😅

[lilac berry]

Also the child looking like the default toddler after ageing up is something I don't know how to fix and I just restart the game when it's time for them to be a kid.

[final patrol]

hey ya'll ^-^ anyone here using/ can recommend any mods that add different livestock to the game? The majority that i can see on nexus are outdated and im not sure if they work still

[royal arrow]

You can use the unofficial update for BFAV, and use newer BFAV packs, since those are designed for the unofficial update

!bfav

[native dragon]

BFAV stands for Better Farm Animal Variety, a mod by Paritee which lets you add new breeds of animals to live in coops and barns. The official version (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3296) is broken in Stardew Valley 1.5 and an unofficial update is linked on the mod compatibility page (https://stardewcommunitywiki.com/Modding:Mod_compatibility#Paritee.27s_Better_Farm_Animal_Variety). Documentation for the Content Pack format is available on github (https://github.com/paritee/Paritee.StardewValley.Frameworks/blob/bfav-3.0.0/BetterFarmAnimalVariety/README.md)

[final patrol]

thank you! are you using it?

[kindred patio]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1150

thats a pretty cool mod that shows things in game so u wont have to look at wiki for many things while playing

[small sorrel]

i was doing mods on a solo world and my game ran perfectly fine but once i went into a multiplayer world with a friend i started freezing every so often

[chrome cosmos]

do you both have the same mods?

[small sorrel]

yea

[steady pike]

anyone else ever have a problem playing modded where cheese/wine wont age when put in the cask no matter how long?

[twin pasture]

cant load a farm map, can someone help with this error? https://smapi.io/log/51aadfbda69e4a8aa5aa7c95bb2842f5

[chrome cosmos]

can you test it on a new save? cheat your way to a cellar and age something

if it works, theres something wrong with your usual save

if it still doesnt age, you have a mod interfering with that process

you can send a log so someone could take a look and see what could possibly be doing that

[crisp scroll]

Hi, sorry, I don't know if you can help. I'm trying to find a mod I saw some months ago, but I don't anymore. It was a mod that add seasonal cookies by Evelyn, palm in summer, flowers in spring, or something like that.

[fickle sundial]

I think it was hidden by the author a while ago

[chrome cosmos]

looks like the mod author hid that

[crisp scroll]

Oh, I see. thanks

[faint lintel]

how do i get vortex to realize i have mods installed?

anyone here know?

[neat plaza]

did you install them via vortex or manually?

[faint lintel]

manually

[neat plaza]

vortex only recognises mods it installed im pretty sure

[faint lintel]

i just installed vortex is there anyway for me to transfer it to a "vortex mods folder"

thats rlly silly if it only recognizes mods it has installed

[sacred jay]

Vortex frequently causes bugs in SDV- it’s recommended that you manually install your mods.

[quiet umbra]

i agree, but I have run across more than one mod handler that does the same thing

I've never used Vortex, but I think it has problems when mods have several "parts" to them... for ex. a mod that has a JA component, and a TMXL component, etc.

[obsidian spear]

Anyone know any kitchen mods that remove or make this useless side bar actually useful?

[faint lintel]

please dont tell me this after all the time i just spent trying to transfer my mods

[obsidian spear]

Honestly, yeah. I tried switching to Vortex to manage SV along with my other games. Instantly things start breaking.

[faint lintel]

oh no

its happening rn

frick vortex

[obsidian spear]

Vortex is good for other games.

Just not SV

[worthy moth]

Which is funny considering how simple it is to do SDV modding manually compared to other games

[obsidian spear]

ikr

[narrow elk]

I use ModDrop not only for my big mod playthroughs but also for a mod testing profile when I'm making mods and haven't had any issues!

[remote oracle]

Hii I just tried modding today and it currently said I needed the new version of SMAPI which was the 3.13.10 version and it says oops couldn't find the game automatically. I looked up for a solution and the only one I found so far was to put the installer folder into the "Stardew Valley" folder so it could find it, well it didn't but I looked in the Stardew Valley folder like where actually is the "Stardew Valley.dll" and I did not see it. Can someone help?

[chrome cosmos]

you shouldnt be on 3.13.0, that one is only for the 1.5.5 stardew beta

you should be on smapi 3.12.5

[remote oracle]

yeah but it currently doesn't work with my Content Patcher, what version of content patcher matches with 3.12.5 STAMPI??

[chrome cosmos]

dont download any of the beta mods for the time being.

[remote oracle]

kk I'll try thankssss

[steady pike]

hi i tried what you said and it worked on the other save, and still isnt working on my current save >.>

[chrome cosmos]

ah, something seems to be wrong with your current save unfortunately im unsure how to fix that tbh :(

[faint lintel]

https://smapi.io/log/6afef2d1bd3a486192471ec8e5cb1968

i already hate this vortex thing

[chrome cosmos]

it tells you the issue right there, you have multiple copies of some of these mods

look at the log, and delete what it tells you to delete and reinstall whats needed

i really dont recommend vortex if you actually wanna enjoy modding your game

[steady pike]

ohkay thanks anyways

[faint lintel]

vortex should have a flipping uninstall button right on the front page cuz ngl it is no bueno

felt good

[tropic needle]

is there a 1.5 compatible mod i can use to spawn giant crops on the farm[or anywhere else, but atleast on farm]?

not having to deal with stupid vortex

guys dont use vortex i beg u

[unreal raptor]

This. SMAPI is easy to use once we learn it and Vortex is definitely causing more problems than we hope it solves, lol

[faint lintel]

im having so many issues right now because of it

i feel like im trying to get rid of a virus i stg

[vagrant aurora]

can you make the Automate mod to have a collection range?

[shy orbit]

i don't think that's possible. i think you'll need to control it using connectors (that you can specify in automate's config https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/tree/develop/Automate#configjson)

[vagrant aurora]

Thank you

[faint lintel]

ok no im done

im going modless

for no

now

why not

i have over 300 hours in the game and have never played without mods

vortex broke my game

[glacial briar]

OR..... Have you considered doing a.... Joja run?

I just happen to have some mods....

[dire fractal]

after reinstalling smapi twice, and fixing every mod related issue, i still dunno why but when i start up my game, only the console starts up n the game never does

@runic cobalt , were you working on another mod like Sunny Crops? ^

[upper ember]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5394

[robust bison]

I think you need to let it load longer

[dire fractal]

someone mind helping me install K's livestock replacers (sheep/cows/pigs/goats)... I've never modded SDV so idk what im doing

ping me if you reply

[runic cobalt]

For what?

[glacial briar]

There was a question about items like beer and cheese redesigns.

[keen crow]

How long are you waiting for the game to open?

[copper sinew]

I need help, at the moment i want to start a new modded world in stardew valley and that requires mods if not already ovious so i have a problem with one of them being outdated when smapi launches, and i cannot find the most recent version, helppp

[keen crow]

Can't help without knowing what mod

[copper sinew]

Oh the mod is MTN

Ye thaught so 😅

[keen crow]

!compat

[native dragon]

See https://smapi.io/mods for a list of mods updated for the latest versions of SMAPI and Stardew Valley. :)

[runic cobalt]

Ah, im not. Sorry

[copper sinew]

Oh

I see

So the mod in no longer compatible

So ther emust be a replacement for it

Since i need it

[keen crow]

For what mod?

[dire fractal]

5-15 minutes

and nothing loads either way

I downloaded all the mod's files... but... uuuhm how do I add these?

[copper sinew]

For stardew valley extanded and also a few more

[keen crow]

SVE doesn't need it

[copper sinew]

HUH?

[keen crow]

Either by using a animal skin mod, like Adopt 'n' Skin or if they're content patcher mods, simply dropping them into your mods folder. If they're xnbs that are said to go into the content folder, then don't use them

[sacred marten]

It’s so weird that they literally had an update for the mod yesterday but failed to fix that known issue

[copper sinew]

OH You are right

[sacred marten]

Ok thanks!

[outer turret]

It's an issue with the framework and no one maintains it.

[dire fractal]

here's what the description says... idk how smapi or the content patcher works

[keen crow]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

@dire fractal 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

[copper sinew]

NOW WHAT I HAVE TO FIND WITCH MODS USE MTN 🥲

[outer turret]

Child to npc the framework mod has been abandoned for years. Every update soneone has got it to at least work but no one is actively maintaining it.

[copper sinew]

Im so tired

[dire fractal]

okok tyyy >< <33

[keen crow]

What mods were you trying to use? MTN is outdated and I don't know many mods that use it anymore

[outer turret]

1.5.5 update will probably kill it dead.

Or someone will tape it together with duct tape and glue

[sacred marten]

Omg noooooo.. i love that mod it’s in my top 3 😭

[outer turret]

The sve part is a content pack

[copper sinew]

@keen crow i think none actualy, i just remember having it in my mods folder for like a year since i had a modded world in the past, i updated all the mods and i thaught that it needs it, but noe i ran into a diffrent problem

My game dosn't start

Does msi afterburner affect smapi?

Just saying thank you is more than enough for a lot of us here

[sacred marten]

Is the framework hard to maintain?

[keen crow]

It shouldn't?

[copper sinew]

Ok than THANK YOU, you made may day better

Hope you guys have a great evening morning noon zombie apocalipse idk

[outer turret]

its a complicated collection of harmony patches so, yes, I guess so. And you'd need to find someone with C# skills and the desire to spend time fixing it. Most serious modders don't play the game long enough to really care about the kids side of thing, I've found.

here's the original code if you're interested. Not sure what the unofficial update stuff changes https://github.com/loe2run/ChildToNPC

[sacred marten]

Ok thanks!

Do i have to ask anyone for permission to try to fix it?

[outer turret]

are you knowledgeale in harmony and c#?

yeh it has pretty open permissions.

[sacred marten]

No but my friend is.. she said she will do it and asked me to make of list of things i need/want but i don’t know much about mods.. you have any suggestions? 😅

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 :)

[copper sinew]

You mean that my game is corrupted?

[upper ember]

Don't use XNB mods, and I'd try verifying your files first? That might help. And you have a dupe mod, Ferngill Revenue Service, so delete the extras of that

[copper sinew]

Ok i deleted the duplicate

But wdym by XNB

?

[neat plaza]

mods that replace your game files rather than you putting them in the mods folder

[copper sinew]

Also how do i verify my files?

[neat plaza]

read the first link

[copper sinew]

@neat plaza and witch ones are there

[neat plaza]

which ones are xnb mods orr...?

OMG MY ENGLISH SUCKS

HOW DO I SPEELL IT RIGHT witch is the feminin of the wizard and which is a typical english word?

I knoe this isnt english class but just, help me

[vernal badge]

what does starblue valley do

[copper sinew]

Idk read the mod

[upper ember]

It's a recolor

[copper sinew]

And now

Which mods are XNB cuz you guys can see it

And ladys

[neat plaza]

yeah pretty much

[copper sinew]

Ok much needed

[neat plaza]

xnb mods are ones that you put in your game's "Content" folder, rather than "Mods"

[copper sinew]

Oooooh

Thats why it glitched

[neat plaza]

(they're not recommended)

[copper sinew]

I have no idea WHICH ones they are

But hey, hopefuly life is better and now it shall work,

I think i spent over 2 h tryna get 30 mods to load

OH MY GOD I WANT TO CRY

[glacial briar]

Yes, but don't worry much about it. 🙂 I just wanted the excuse to link the witchy mods list. 😄

[copper sinew]

The same error

I think i might have deleted stardew valley 😅, or at least the content of it

Lemme try starting up the game

[glacial briar]

Didn't you say you needed sleep? Go rest; you can mod tomorrow.

[copper sinew]

Tomorow i have homework

And me no like that

[glacial briar]

Sleep is important 👍

[copper sinew]

Ik but i will dream that mods folder if i don't do it noe

Now*

[glacial briar]

But if you do get it working you're gonna wanna play SDV for like 2 hours 😛

[copper sinew]

True, but at least ima dream STARDEW VALLEY NOT THE MODS FOLDER

And its 23 45 for me, aka 11 45 pm for you i guess (did not change timezones)
