Im currently using vortex mod manager so not sure whats wrong

[upper ember]

[hot ore]

it froze

[tired brook]

[naive drum]

what happens if you open it straight from the exe?

[upper ember]

[frigid compass]

||Say a nice thing about yourse-||

[hot ore]

anything else you want me to do

@tired brook

[tired brook]

@hot ore What about this version?

[runic cobalt]

nope

[blazing gulch]

Taiyo those designs r beutiful owo

[ebon abyss]

Is there a way to force steam to open through SMAPI?

I can only get mods to work when I launch SDV through vortex SMAPI

[royal arrow]

Did you set the Steam launch options?

[runic cobalt]

vanilla matching is everything, dear u-u

[royal arrow]

!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

[upper ember]

When you install Smapi, copy the command prompt it gives you, including the quotes. Then paste it into Steam's launch settings under Stardew. The one on the wiki is incorrect

[naive drum]

you can also launch directly through the SMAPI exe, straight from the game folder, if you want

[royal arrow]

I thought it was just blurred. But yes I linked the wiki because it includes step by step instructions with screenshots

[hot ore]

opened the game but the game window was just a black screen

[tired brook]

@hot ore If you do it again, does it do the same thing or is it inconsistent?

[upper ember]

Some wiki, can't remember which one, has a command prompt that you can easily copy and paste. Some people, including my cousins, used it thinking it still worked, and it doesn't ^^''

[hot ore]

lemme try

[naive drum]

oh no what if it does the "alternates, every launch, like a lightswitch" thing

[hot ore]

lemme try

[tired brook]

Known issue: SMAPI works every second attempt on macOS. Nobody knows why, that's just how it is now.

[naive drum]

iirc it can work but you have to have the game installed to the exact same folder names as the person who put the example there used

[royal arrow]

Like how you can only get the USB drive connected on the 3rd try no matter what

[dire fractal]

Still won't work. New log: https://smapi.io/log/49386dedc51049c596d1a630fc425b91

[hot ore]

nope froze in the script now and didnt even open the window

[ebon abyss]

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

windows cant find C:\ program?

[royal arrow]

You're missing " at the beginning of all of that

[hot ore]

want me to try one more time

[ebon abyss]

oh you do need that "

didnt realize

[naive drum]

looks like Alternative Textures is trying to apply a texture that doesn't exist - did you uninstall any AT packs, specifically flooring?

[dire fractal]

no, will remove and try again. was going to try that one.

[ebon abyss]

ty

[naive drum]

also send that log to the alternative textures person

[royal arrow]

You're welcome!

[dire fractal]

@naive drum will do, thanks and fingers crossed.

[ebon abyss]

anyone used ui info suite?

I cant seem to click on it

[tired brook]

@hot ore How about with this version?

[royal arrow]

Are your zoom and UI percentages the same?

[ebon abyss]

no

[royal arrow]

They need to be

Although some people have said UI Info Suite 2 doesn't have that limitation. I think it's only available on Github though

[ebon abyss]

ty

did they migrate due to that nexusmod change?

[hot ore]

soooooo third times the charm

[royal arrow]

Not sure, but the 2.0 version is its own mod

[tired brook]

@hot ore If you try it again just to make sure, does it still work fine?

[hot ore]

3.12.7 alpha worked the third time i opened it

lemme try again

[tired brook]

(And can you post your new log after that new attempt?)

[ebon abyss]

cant find the 2.0 version on github

[sacred marten]

Is there a mod that adds more animals to the game?

[blazing gulch]

FINALLY GOT ME MUSIC TO WORK AAAAH

[blazing gulch]

Been looking for more coloured chickens

[dire fractal]

how is stardew valley expanded?

[royal arrow]

Yup, there's a framework mod for that

!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)

[upper ember]

It expands on the vanilla game, adds more NPCs, fish and tweaks maps. Doesn't change the foundation of the game

[hoary musk]

Downloaded the recent update for Mega Storage and I got this error

Log: https://smapi.io/log/209a771871094d0c8d794ef97cfa6d6d

[naive drum]

i like the silly name

[naive drum]

take it out of the nexus numbers folder

you didn't unzip it properly

[hoary musk]

That's weird, ok I'll try again

[naive drum]

excessively long filepaths cause problems

and the easiest way to get an excessively long filepath is to not take stuff out of the zips

[dire fractal]

is there a mod to teleport back home?

[naive drum]

CBJ Cheats

[blazing gulch]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9051?tab=images
Question, can your regular brown and white chickens coexist with there other skins?

[naive drum]

yes, if you use adopt n skin

and it's already named with the adopt n skin filename system!

[hoary musk]

So just rename it like Mega Storage 3.1.0?

[naive drum]

open the nexus numbers folder. inside it there is the actual mega storage mod folder. that is what goes in your mods folder.

you turned Mega Storage-4089-3-1-0-1630988914.zip into a regular folder instead of taking out the [XS] MegaStorage folder - the actual mod - from inside it

[hoary musk]

That's how it was extracted

I use 7zip

The error is still there

[naive drum]

i also use 7zip and don't get those extremely long folder names

i open the zip and drag the contents out, or use the Extract Here option, depending on how many zips i'm dealing with

[winter flicker]

extract here does the short path, extract to (zip name) the long one

[blazing gulch]

So I just put this in my mods folder, and when I buy a chicken it will randomly pick one of the chickens like usual?

[upper ember]

Use extract here, not extract to -folder-

[naive drum]

put it in the Adopt n Skin Assets folder

[hoary musk]

I've never had any issue with how I extracted it, it works just fine

[upper ember]

Most mods are contained neatly in their own folder within the zip, so you don't have to extract it to the folder

[naive drum]

anyways new log please

[pine fjord]

With Adopt and Skin you'd have to buy one of the regular chickens, and then it'll randomize one of the skins or you can set it yourself

[naive drum]

there's a cap on how long the filepath can be due to OS limitations

[pine fjord]

wait it might not randomize

but you can randomize them yourself

[blazing gulch]

Oooh, uh... so I put the files in the adopt n skin folder right?

[hoary musk]

New log: https://smapi.io/log/fe00e230d6b8491689b2eb1e0f364881

[blazing gulch]

The whole zip folder or?

I feel dumb im sorry

[naive drum]

unzip it first, you just want the PNGs in there

[hoary musk]

Want me to post of picture of what's inside my mod folder?

[blazing gulch]

If you are referring that question to me then yes pls 😭

[naive drum]

did you delete the old folder before installing the new one?

[hoary musk]

No sorry, wrong person

Yes I did

[blazing gulch]

Ok, and then where do i deposit them?

[naive drum]

srn you put it in this highlighted subfolder

in the adopt in skin folder

(i further subfoldered mine, for organizational reasons, but you don't have to!)

(just drop them in there)

[blazing gulch]

Okay, but i still can have the vanilla chickens?

[naive drum]

maybe try wtih the non-lite version of expanded storage?

[naive drum]

yes

[blazing gulch]

All this?

[naive drum]

all of those

[blazing gulch]

Okk

[blazing gulch]

(Do share how cuz I like mine organized too hehe 😅)

[naive drum]

whole pile of subfolders

and if i was using alternate skins for my BFAV animals id have a whole pile of BFAV animal name subfolders too

[dire fractal]

so no teleport mod?

[naive drum]

there;s a teleport function in the cheats menu mod

and a warp network mod that iirc might use the vanilla return scepter function a bit?

[dire fractal]

thats the only way? sad

[blazing gulch]

Owo uh it turned all me vanilla chickens lol

[hoary musk]

New log: https://smapi.io/log/26af01e8f288416a8928d062a56c74a6

Error still persist

[blazing gulch]

And the ducks too- altho i do like it more hehe

[pine fjord]

you can manually set each of their skins!

[naive drum]

you entirely uninstalled expanded storage

apparently

[muted pagoda]

the latest version of XS is some weird split lite+plus thing

[naive drum]

weird

[hoary musk]

I deleted XS Lite, I still have XS PLus

[naive drum]

do you need like...both of them??

that sounds like a Mess

[muted pagoda]

the packs require lite

content packs, rather

[hoary musk]

I'll reinstall Lite

[muted pagoda]

I'm not sure what exactly plus does on it's own, but you do seem to need both to use other content bits for it

[naive drum]

Weird

[unreal raptor]

Does anybody know how in the world Korbus adopted one of my children even though I have the roommate romance set to false under the Multiple Spouses mod? I had this child with Harvey, and for a while it said so on the social tab, but suddenly she has Krobus listed as her parent.

[hot ore]

https://smapi.io/log/193c34eb176d4024a13560665e97d7ee

sorry its so late

[tired brook]

No worries! So worked fine that time too?

[hoary musk]

Luckily I move the zipped folder into a different folder after I extract them as a backup 🙂

[hot ore]

yep

[hoary musk]

The backup folder is on my desktop in a separate folder

[blazing gulch]

Holy- u romanced krobus too

[tired brook]

So the freeze is definitely linked to the version. I wonder if it's related to the update check somehow.

[unreal raptor]

yes I did

You see, on this save file, I’m playing as one of my OCs and she is in love with a shadow monster in her story, SO OBVIOUSLY I invite Krobus as a roommate as soon as I can. Lol

[blazing gulch]

Cute uwu

[hot ore]

kk update me when you can

[tired brook]

@hot ore Can you try with this version?

[hot ore]

okie dokie

[unreal raptor]

Alternative question:

Is there a mod on Nexus that changes your child’s sprites to be little shadow babies?

[hot ore]

worked fine

[tired brook]

@hot ore How about this one (and can you post your log for this one)?

[blazing gulch]

Ive seen them before but ive never check for the individual mods

[dire fractal]

What the heck installer haha

[blazing gulch]

Whut happen?

[naive drum]

soemthing's weird with smapi on mac, pathoschild is trying to fix it and gave the installer a silly name

[dire fractal]

Fwiw I haven’t faced any issues

[blazing gulch]

Im using adopt n skin

How do i get this cutiepie??

I got the letter from marnie but not getting any options to adopt-

[sacred marten]

I figured it out

[sacred marten]

Can someone look at my log and tell me my my farmers son “Justin” schedule failed?

!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 marten]

https://smapi.io/log/ee289e326d0140508a64034f7829d7bf

[naive drum]

im not sure how well child to npc handles the island

@outer turret are you the resident child to npc knowledgable person?

[shy orbit]

that schedule doesn't seem to be in the child to npc mod you have, so i guess that's a schedule generated by the game? (not really related to solving the problem, i just don't know how the island schedules work at all)

[hot ore]

it was telling me to install some shit

so i closed out of it

[tired brook]

What was it saying to install? 🤔

[hot ore]

like it said i needed some devolper tool idk

[tired brook]

Sounds like it might have crashed with a segfault, which macOS may handle by asking if you want to debug it or something.

[hot ore]

wait the second time it opened

[hot ore]

want the log

[tired brook]

So is it working with that version?

[hot ore]

yea

[outer turret]

I'm guessing it doesn't like the bed bit

Prob cos bed is in farmhouse

[tired brook]

Can you try it again and see if it still works, just to make sure it's not just failing intermittently?

[sacred marten]

Ohh ok. He use to go to the treehouse all the time but recently I’ve seen him with penny, jas, Vince & all the other children NPC’s outside the museum and park. I’ve also been seeing flor walk him to the bus stop where he continues home and she goes to ridgeside. I guess it shouldn’t be a problem then lol

[hot ore]

worked

[outer turret]

Yeh that's different code though

[shy orbit]

hm, so is the schedule displayed on the log coming from the base game or..?

[outer turret]

Oddly my child chars never go to island

[hot ore]

should i start using this one as my main loader

[outer turret]

Base game

[unreal raptor]

hey, Pathoschild? Thank you for all the work you do with these mods!
Same for all you awesome mod creators

[shy orbit]

ah okay

[tired brook]

@hot ore We've narrowed it down to two specific parts of the code. Just one or two tests should narrow it down to one, then we can look into why that one is causing issues. (We can continue another time if you want though!)

[hot ore]

yea its really late so could we do that tomorrow

[tired brook]

Sure! Feel free to ping me tomorrow whenever you're available.

[hot ore]

kk gn

[tired brook]

Good night, and thanks for testing!

[dire fractal]

What is the issue?

[tired brook]

For some players on macOS, the game freezes when launching if certain mods are installed. It's somehow tied to the version, so exactly the same build with a different version number will toggle between freezing and working.

[robust bison]

The estimated release date of 1.5.5 is fall 2021, right?

anyone play SVE?is there a way i can stop the SVE custom music?i have check content.json, only loop and preload

[outer turret]

You can set preload to false but otherwise if you stop it the events will crash the game.

[naive drum]

dont you have mobile cp?

[blazing gulch]

Fixed it

Why do I insist on torturing myself XD

[deep hound]

@novel forge hi

[novel forge]

hello there

[deep hound]

ok so

what path do you want to use as a connector

do you have more wood or stone

[novel forge]

that is a good question

since i have like 2 forest growing at my farm, wood is the better choice

[deep hound]

you sure?

you can pretty much infinite stone from the mines and you'll probably be short on wood when winter comes

because trees dont grow in winter

[novel forge]

really????? damn

[unkempt terrace]

what are you guys doing

[novel forge]

i was wondering in build all my things at winter

[naive drum]

if you have deep woods the trees in there respawn the same way the mine stone does

even in winter

[novel forge]

hello cgifox

[deep hound]

well, you can grow trees with tree fertilizer

manually, that is

[naive drum]

dont go deeper than the first level of deep woods without a way to teleport out though

[deep hound]

deep woods?

[naive drum]

mod

[deep hound]

oh

nice

@novel forge you wanna get that mod?

that lets you grow trees in winter?

[novel forge]

no no, i got a lot of help with the automatic one

[deep hound]

alr

[novel forge]

i want to still the most vanilla i can

[deep hound]

for paths made of stone, you have 2 options

which one do you prefer

[unkempt terrace]

theres no point to paths other than for aesthetic reasons right

[deep hound]

there is with the mod automate

[deep hound]

@novel forge ?

[unkempt terrace]

oh

[deep hound]

if you play with smapi you should check it out

[novel forge]

this one

[unkempt terrace]

ye i do play with smapi

[deep hound]

ok

[unkempt terrace]

but mostly as vanilla as possible

[deep hound]

me too, i mostly only download quality of life mods

[novel forge]

[deep hound]

go to the folder where you have the mods folder with all the mods

[unkempt terrace]

the only 2 mods i have are 1 for auto attack and one for skipping the fishing minigame

[unkempt terrace]

how many mods do you use

[novel forge]

mods of UI and re-skins counts as a cheat?

[unkempt terrace]

tbh i dont feel like using mods cos the base game is already so expansive

[deep hound]

not at all

[unkempt terrace]

nope

[deep hound]

they're just aesthetic

[novel forge]

automate only (if you talk about gameplay and that)
the others are just moded skins of things

[unkempt terrace]

say is it your first time playing

[deep hound]

@novel forge

[novel forge]

since 2017

[unkempt terrace]

woah

ive only played it once before, a year ago

[novel forge]

but i can't remember a lot, and i see CA added A LOT of things

[unkempt terrace]

oh yeah i hear a lot of new things that didnt exist even last year

[novel forge]

now think about me, four years ago last time i played this

[deep hound]

click on the automate folder

and open the config.json file using notepad

[unkempt terrace]

must feel like a completely new game XD

[novel forge]

yes, it is

[unkempt terrace]

heh, my last playthrough i only went up to year 2

cos i think i wanted to play "competitively", and began looking up tutorials and stuff, and just eventually got burned out lmao

so this time im taking it slow and at my own pace

[deep hound]

same

[novel forge]

im taking it a lil bit tryhard 'cause im thinkin on "if yo don't have CC completed and grandpa quest completed before year 3, is game over you lil girl"

[sour wren]

Is there currently any performance difference between JA and DGA?

[novel forge]

after completed that, the 2nd day of year 3 is gonna be all real chill

like, real

[deep hound]

i'm playing in 2 saves, and in one of them im in summer of y2 and still havent completed cc

it feels a lot better to take things slow

anyways

[edgy flame]

oh wow ive never downloaded mods since i only really play on switch but i lost my switch so im gonna try to play more on pc

[unkempt terrace]

hahaha, i mean 3 years is p normal to complete CC ^^

[edgy flame]

im gonna try mods

[unkempt terrace]

you dont have to do it in 2 years

[deep hound]

ok

this is how it should look @novel forge

[novel forge]

2 years, first day of year 3 all is ended up by "cannon" date

[deep hound]

"ConnectorNames": [
"Cobblestone Path",
"Workbench"

[unkempt terrace]

"cannon date"?

[novel forge]

otherwise you're gonna need a diamond to do it again, at least the grandpa quest

[unkempt terrace]

wait what

idgi

i have to complete it in 2 years?

[deep hound]

no, but i think that's their goal

to finish by the start of year 3

[unkempt terrace]

oh

[novel forge]

grandpa says that he is gonna arrive the first day of year 3 to look at your progress and see if you are a real farmer

but again, that is not a main quest

just as a goal

[unkempt terrace]

smh im not gonna care about grandpa expectations

[deep hound]

@novel forge

[novel forge]

you don't need to

[unkempt terrace]

ye i know lol

[novel forge]

but as pun said

[novel forge]

.

[unkempt terrace]

tbh i was very close to going the joja mart route

but my friend told me not to do that

[deep hound]

imo it just makes the game boring like that

[deep hound]

yup

[novel forge]

joja route is just........ meh

[deep hound]

now when you end a day, restart smapi

and it should work as connectors

i'll show what mine looks like

[sly granite]

Hello guys! Anyone who can help me with this one? https://smapi.io/log/6f62883e41bc41a5974a96623ac55133

[novel forge]

i just sleeped, should i restart?

or wait until tomorrow?

[deep hound]

yep, restart smapi

[novel forge]

okay

[deep hound]

see the wood paths connect them all

[unkempt terrace]

Ooo

i might get those mods later on tbh

[deep hound]

they're so fun

just got my first 4 iridium bars

[novel forge]

is so useful

you can save at least maybe 1 hour per day

[shy orbit]

i'd guess the problems are coming from the treestump mod (the content patcher part is malformatted or corrupted in some way, could be the same for the tmxl part)

[novel forge]

looks like it works

[deep hound]

that's what i did in the desert 😄

[naive drum]

this example doesnt actually need the wood paths, unless they're going outside!

[novel forge]

is a one big idea tbh

[deep hound]

i just used them because i had them laying around and wanted to demonstrate

[naive drum]

fair enough!

[deep hound]

i'll show you when i go there

[novel forge]

okay!

im waiting for my artisan products to fix the bus

i have already the key

[unkempt terrace]

Ooo where do you go with the bus

[novel forge]

||desert||

||and there is the skull cavern||

[deep hound]

which you can ||iridium from||

[unkempt terrace]

Ooo

oh yeah also, i just checked my last playthrough, it was in winter year 2, and nowhere close enough to complete the CC lmao

[sly granite]

Deleted it and all the errors were gone. Thank you! 🥰

[unkempt terrace]

how close are you to CC completion rn @novel forge

[novel forge]

just animal things, fruits, that annoying red cabbage and the fern

[unkempt terrace]

mmm, tbh i hate some of the bundles lmao

[novel forge]

greenhouse bundle is ruined with the animal things, imo

it can be for example, dishes

[unkempt terrace]

dishes sound even harder

[novel forge]

or at least 1 crop of every season

[unkempt terrace]

crops and foraging is fine

[novel forge]

need kitchen instead of almost every animal stuff

[unkempt terrace]

mm i dont have kitchen either lol

kitchen needs woood right?

[novel forge]

lol

300 i think, lemme check

[unkempt terrace]

and how much money?

[novel forge]

450 wood
10,000G

[unkempt terrace]

oof

damn the gold might be harder to gather than the wood lmao

[novel forge]

yes

the second expansion is 50,000G and 150 hardwood

and the last one is only 100,000G

[unkempt terrace]

i think i have like

3k gold

lmao

[dire fractal]

someone sent me a mod and ik it might sound silly but which ... do I download??

[pine fjord]

Hello, anyone here using natural recolor reshade + sdv 1.5.5? Im wondering why that combo doesnt work for me :/ while the reshade works when i use sdv 1.5.4 32bit

[dusky canyon]

Maybe the mod author hasn't updated it for 1.5.5 yet

[sacred marten]

Is 1.5.5 released yet?

[dusky canyon]

There's only a beta for mod authors currently

[zinc peak]

is there a mod to automatically open and close gates?

[ripe sapphire]

weirdly it worked as well with unofficial 64bit

[dusky canyon]

unofficial 64-bit is not the beta! 😛

[naive drum]

automatic gates

check on smapi.io/mods in case the most recent version isn't on nexus

[ornate socket]

poop

whats the best mods for sdv

it works, no freeze issue 🙂

Yes.

There is no best mod. All are good in their ways

Hi, does anyone have a working mod pack for android from Stardew Valley Expanded? Can you have a ready-made package sent? I have been trying to upload a mod package for 2 days, but without success 😦
I get bugs all the time, I follow previous mod versions, good SMAPI versions, but there is something wrong all the time.

I searched the discord but didn't know anyone was asking for.

[naive drum]

SVE in particular is so big and resource intensive that it just...doesn't really work on mobile

if you've got a really high spec tablet device, the SVE for 1.4 stardew might work?

[trail oriole]

The phone memory and the power of the hardware are not the limits.
The main problem is that the mods won't match because of the version difference.
Most are designed for SV 1.5 and the latest SMAPI

[sacred marten]

Can someone tell what mod was used to change the beach house?

[naive drum]

there's old versions

[trail oriole]

Yes, I know, I tried, It don't want to act. That's why I ask if anyone has a working modpack with android mods.

[loud stone]

What is package? Im play sve ,no error in smapi

[trail oriole]

I mean modpack.

[loud stone]

Idk,you want to know what version you should download?

[glacial briar]

There aren't really modpacks for SDV

But here's a good list of mods you can get to implement a lot of the same kind of features you'll find in SVE: https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Recommendations:_Modular_SVE

[trail oriole]

You don't understand - if you have a WORKING pack of android mods with Stardew Valley Expanded, then you could copy the files from your phone and send them to me - it's that simple. I'd like to play Stardew Valley Expanded, I've already played regular SV.

[trail oriole]

I think I know, versions for Stardew Valley 1.4 and SMAPI v3.7.6.9 - maybe I'm wrong

[loud stone]

😂 idk how to upload, i wont copy the files because it have some config,but zip is ok

[trail oriole]

I need only mods folder 🙂

[loud stone]

My sve isnt english😂

[glacial briar]

Yes, I do understand - that there aren't modpacks. XD

[trail oriole]

as far as I know, it doesn't matter when it comes to the mod packs themselves - i understand you're talking about ANDROID version?

[trail oriole]

ok, you mayby are right, but do You know what I mean? 🙂

[loud stone]

Yes,you want the mod, tell me how to upload

[glacial briar]

I think you're asking someone else to do all the work of making mods work on your phone?

[trail oriole]

whatever, google drive, github, wetransfer (mail: [e-mail])

[trail oriole]

yes, you read all the correspondence? for 2 days i have been trying to install the package and it does not work. The type of phone does not matter, because we have all the same SMAPI

[loud stone]

Ok, send you the mod ,sve,things i download,you just need to unzip,right?language maybe not right

[trail oriole]

ok, thx

[loud stone]

I try to download ggdrive

How to share, i upload on ggdrive

[dusky canyon]

[trail oriole]

you have a link, somethink that look like clip

[loud stone]

You have gg drive app? Tell me how to do

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1-mq-Yh9zo5_kqH-sfD11P5fykx7z2w7U that?

[trail oriole]

You must click right and that to te clip

[trail oriole]

Thank you very much, I will download it in a moment and check how it works for me, but there shouldn't be any problems: D

[loud stone]

Listen, maybe i miss some,and the if2r you know the farm map im no use because lagged, and dont use savebackup,if you wanna quit the game just finish a day

[trail oriole]

Hehehe, I had some bugs, now I have a wall of bugs xD Nothing wants to work - it's a pity, but thanks for your help 🙂

[loud stone]

Do you work with other mod?

[trail oriole]

No, only Yours

[loud stone]

Idk , whats you smapi version

[lunar cipher]

Looks like Spanish Revival Buildings by Hadi, although I don't think it includes the beach farmhouse so probably whoever's screenshot that is has made a personal edit

[loud stone]

Listen, you can solve, maybe. Delete sve, only start with requirement, check the smapi error

[trail oriole]

ok, I will try

[pale adder]

Does anybody know if UI Info Suite 2 works with the game beta?

[royal arrow]

I think there was 1 error people were getting but idk if it's game breaking

[pale adder]

I was getting the same error I had with the original version of the mod so I just wanted to check and see if it was a me issue or not, but it's probably just not compatible, thanks!

I miss my sprinkler radius

[royal arrow]

Data Layers includes that feature! Although I can't recall if it's only visible after you place the sprinkler, you'd have to test

[pale adder]

oooh okay thank you!

[tender fractal]

Hello! I would greatly appreciate if anyone could help. It doesn't say there is any error with the mods in the log. It just stops loading after "cavedrips music" and the game never ends up opening. I own a mac and have tried redownloading stardew, smapi and mono. I have also tried reviewing the content files on Steam. If anyone could provide on reccomendations on what I could do, i would greatly appreciate it. The logs is below

https://smapi.io/log/6320c58b483a4ba596cb9ad0febff53f

[royal arrow]

Is Custom Music one of those that has a different version available for the game beta, 1.5.5? If so, you'd want to make sure you have the version for game version 1.5.4 since that's what you have.
I'd confirm that with all the framework mods you have, too (Content Patcher, Json Assets, Farm Type Manager, Quest Framework, Shop Tile Framework, and TMXL).

Also, do you have all of the Stardew Valley Expanded (SVE) components? It looks like you might not have the code component since it's not listed in your log, but I don’t use it so idk if they got rid of that component. The SVE install guide is here and includes screenshots: https://github.com/FlashShifter/StardewValleyExpanded/wiki/Install-guide

SVE also has a different version available for the beta (1.5.5) so you want to make sure you have the version for game version 1.5.4

[trail oriole]

You are great! I have a lot of bugs, but everything works. I'll try to add more mods...

[tender fractal]

Is there a way to check which update the nexus mod uses? I am having difficulty locating it for some of the mods.

[royal arrow]

If you're on the mod page, the Files view lists the different files available. Those often have descriptions that specify what version of the game they're for

If not, the mod description itself might mention it

[tender fractal]

I do see that for some of them like Spacecore which specifies that it is 1.5+ compatible but some just don't mention anything (not in the mod description or file).

I'm using nexus mods if that helps.

[royal arrow]

Then it's probably safe to assume they're for 1.5.4. The biggest thing is for the ones that do have a 1.5.5 version available, don't use that version and instead use the version for 1.5.4

[tender fractal]

Thank you! Should I go through each one of my mods to see if I downloaded the right version?

[royal arrow]

I mentioned specifically the framework mods, those are most important, but you could also check it for the code mods (listed in bold in your log)

And definitely check it for SVE

The content packs (in italicized font like so) don't need to be checked

[tender fractal]

Alrighty! Thank you again for helping me, I am very grateful for you assistance. I hope you have an amazing day!!

[royal arrow]

You're welcome! Hope you have a great day too

[mild frost]

Is there a Lenne npc mod yet

[royal tundra]

as in, putting Lenne into the game as a very helpful person?

[mild frost]

Precisely

[edgy flame]

so im downloading mods for the first time what version of smapi do i need help kinda confused

[royal tundra]

one will say beta. Avoid that one, go for the other one

[edgy flame]

mkay mkay thanks :]

[shut coyote]

this has probably been answered a thousand times but for anyone who's used SMAPI where should I place it. It says not to do the game folder so should I just do it in program files?

[shy orbit]

that's probably not a good location, better to extract the zip somewhere in your home folder (it just contains the installer files that you then execute and afterwards you can delete the extracted files)

[shut coyote]

so I'm guessing documents will be fine, thanks for the help

[edgy flame]

im trying to get a nexus acc but it keeps saying the verification code is wrong

ive typed it in 7 times and copied and pasted it help

oh uhm

okay it worked

[fickle hornet]

Is there any mods that simulate sickness like having a cold after a rainy days?

[trail oriole]

Ok, everything is fixed. I have working version for android with Stardew Valley Expanded 😄

[royal tundra]

not quite, but there's a mod that gives you sunburn on sunny days

and one that cuts your health if you didn't light a fire in your fireplace the night before and it was a cold night, that may be closest

[lunar cipher]

Weather Illnesses used to do that, but it seems like it's not working at the moment since it relies on Climates of Ferngill, which hasn't been fully updated (only some functions are working). UV Index, the sunburn mod Morgrim mentioned, likewise appears to be broken in 1.5, but you might like Remember Your Umbrella, which adds a wetness/dryness system where your stamina will start slowly draining if you're outside in the rain without one of the mod-added umbrellas

Working Fireplace appears to still be fine though

[edgy flame]

erm so like im trying to extract my mod files into a diff folder but it keeps making a new folder called the name of one of the mods

[upper ember]

Do "extract here" instead of "extract to -folder-"

[edgy flame]

yeah it doesnt have an option for that :/

okay wait i just realized i dont have winrar downloaded on this computer i got a new one nvm im sure itll be fixed after i download that

worked :]

[crimson rune]

Playing SDV after a few months again, but as a macbook mod player, the pain is real when you have to update 43 mods manually 🙃

[low wharf]

At least you only have 43. Mine is close to the 200s and I wonder why some stuff doesn't work sometimes lol

but the manual updating of mods is a pain

[crimson rune]

Oof, 200 is alot. I have more than 43, but not all of them needs an update. But yea, I wish there was a mod manager for mac. Oh well, I'm halfway installing now haha

[dire fractal]

so it is an idea to opt into 64 bit beta if i keep having issues with memory because i have a lot of mods installed?

[neat plaza]

yes, or use the unofficial 64bit patch

[dire fractal]

smapi keeps crashing because of insufficient memory which causes me to lose progress on entire days because the game will get stuck on saving on an endless loop

and i heard that moving to 64bit might fix it cause it could just be an issue with a lot of mods since i have over 100 installed

[neat plaza]

it will

unless your pc runs out of memory

[dire fractal]

that's good to hear. i made sure my PC wasn't anywhere near out of memory and it wasn't, so i knew it must've been an issue with the game

i also checked my logs again and again and couldn't seem to find anything pointing to a single mod or group of mods causing the problem on its own

i'm just glad there's a solution, i didn't know SV was moving to 64bit until now

[crimson rune]

Ofcourse, it had to happen. Is there a known issue with TMXL Map Toolkit? I get a crazy amount of errors and the game crashes before I even can see the homescreen of the game.. My SMAPI log: https://smapi.io/log/48ad0e5c44c34ab09f1d26d61dd91432

as far as I can see it interferes with the sdv aquarium mod?

[pine fjord]

It just seems like you're missing a tilesheet

I might be wrong but I think it could be solved if you just shoved daisyniko's tilesheets on the maps folder of the aquarium mod!

however that seems kind of a strange solution so the issue might be something else

[crimson rune]

I'll try that!

[dire fractal]

after u extracted the zip file do u just drag the folder into the mods folder

[neat plaza]

yes

[pine fjord]

make sure you just do the 4 tilesheets in the daisy version!

[dense trench]

How to remove a mod? Just delete its file?

Or should I uninstall

[minor dagger]

What type of mod is it?

[dense trench]

Oh I dont have one yet, im asking just incase I install a mod and eventually wanting to uninstall it 😂

So it depends on what kind of mod huh

[minor dagger]

It depends really. If its like new crops you gotta make sure not to have stuff in ur inventory and chests but most of the time the mod page will have a uninstall guide, and usually its just make sure theres no residue then delete the file. But some might be more complicated

Does anyone know how to get the 'Still' recipe from Artisan Valley? it's not showing up where I can craft it

[dense trench]

I see.

Looks like I just installed something similar to that issue...

So i just download 20 mods, and 1 of them gave me warning for it could messed up the file...

Is it winter grass?

[minor dagger]

its just changing the code that allows grass to be grown in Winter

I have the mod installed and have never had any problems

If you haven't already you should make a backup of your save

[dense trench]

Ok... How to uninstall it tho? 😂

Oh wait, nvm theres a guide lol

[teal hollow]

Hi I need help with the spacecore mod

[cloud glen]

I'm having a bit of an issue with content patcher but i'm new to mods so i'm not entirely sure why the errors are occuring

[pine fjord]

[native dragon]

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

[pine fjord]

[native dragon]

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

[cloud glen]

yes i've done that

https://smapi.io/log/db18f386d1054df6a6185df646829e69

[pine fjord]

Are you updated to the latest version of ridgeside and sve?

(that isn't beta?)

[cloud glen]

how do i do that?

[pine fjord]

oh dear

Okay so!

[cloud glen]

i was using a pack my friend sent me of mods

then just got the up to date content patcher

is this where the issue is?

[pine fjord]

SMAPI itself gives you links to every folder tha needs updating

[cloud glen]

sorry im still new to mods

[pine fjord]

follow each link to nexus and go to download the new file

then, you'll unzip the file, go to your mod folder and find the old folder and delete

then put the new file on top

(make sure to do this instead of replacing/overwritting)

[edgy flame]

sorry to interrupt but what are yalls favorite mods from nexus? i just started using mods today and only have about 30 so far. idrk what kind of mods im looking for but what are you guys' absolute faves?

[cloud glen]

tysm @pine fjord

i'm gonna try that now and i will let you know if it fixes it all

[pine fjord]

so in the case of SVE
You want to follow the link at the bottom, download the new version of SVE and unzip it- Then go to your mods folder, delete the SVE folder in there and paste the new one you just download on top!

[pine fjord]

Make sure to not download ANY of the beta versions of the mod

the download page on nexus shows you several files, you always want the latest file that doesn't say beta

[cloud glen]

so should i update smapi too?

[pine fjord]

Yes! but again, update smapi to the latest, none beta version

[cloud glen]

okie

thank you so much for the help ❤️

[pine fjord]

I personally love expansions! Ridgeside, SVE, East Scarpe, Walk to Dessert, etc!
Then I have the entire ppja suite because I love new crops and items

some people are really die hard for the multiple spouses mod too

[edgy flame]

okay!! i got ppja and one expansion not sure which one but it added a character named victor i know for a fact lmao

[pine fjord]

oh and adopt and skin, or alternate textures is absolutely amazing too !

[pine fjord]

Stardew valley expanded!

[edgy flame]

ill look into more expansions bc thats always fun

yep yep thats it

[pine fjord]

it includes victor, sophia, olivia and a bunch new characters and maps

[edgy flame]

alrighty thank you :]

[pine fjord]

of course!

[teal hollow]

https://smapi.io/log/a655ae5320894d58ab46a51e4e08cf75

[pine fjord]

I don't see any issue with Spacecore in your log?

Did you let your game load up fully?

[teal hollow]

The game does not open but when removing the mod spacecore the game opens but I can not choose game

[teal hollow]

Yes

[pine fjord]

Oh wait

[pine fjord]

You're running on beta smapi!

Try rolling back to the latest non-beta SMAPI version

[teal hollow]

My stardew valley is also in beta I will try to use the normal versions of both

[pine fjord]

Please do!

Not all frameworks and mods are compatible with the beta version just yet which can cause breaks

[teal hollow]

Thank you very much you are a great person

[cloud glen]

@pine fjord i still seem to be getting error messages

https://smapi.io/log/2db4a758c6eb45119fe7f2b273f7cb68

this is the new log

[pine fjord]

You need to update SMAPI as well!

to the latest, non-beta version

[cloud glen]

i did 😦

it seems to be the content patcher mod

[pine fjord]

Your log says you need SMAPI 3.12.6

so many of your mods are failing because you don't have the latest version of SMAPI required

[cloud glen]

i swear i just installed it

heck

lemme try again

OH

IM DUMB

[pine fjord]

NO YOU'RE NOT

did you manage?

No 😦

i tried updating smapi

i've updated all the files

it's the content patcher

something isn't working with it

Log?

[cloud glen]

https://smapi.io/log/0fce78ac168042f0a481c2b3924dd22c

sorry for being a pain

[pine fjord]

You did it!

Now on to the next issue!

You have multiple copies of Custom NPC Fixes, Custom NPC Exclusions, and Custom Music

and thus none are loading

usually this is due to those mods being included in the stardew valley expanded folder

and outside of it

Could you check for those multiple copies and delete one of them for the mods I mentioned above?

[cloud glen]

yes i've deleted the copies of that

[pine fjord]

And it still throws that error?

after you deleted the extra copies?

[cloud glen]

ok done that and updated everything the log suggested

lets try again

ok still getting error for invalid content

[dense trench]

Anyone here uses Seasonal Outfits - slightly cuter aesthetics? How to set up its config?

[royal arrow]

The config file for any mod is generated after running the game with the mod installed at least once

from there you can tweak it, but changes won't be applied until the next time you load the game

Hmm how to do that tho? Currently I'm looking at config file but it seems theres no way I could tweak it.

You open the config.json file in any text editor (Notepad, Notepad++, on Mac TextEditor works) and then set the settings based on the options

The options are listed in the mod description

Does anyone have a way for mac users to unpack and pack XNB files? I'm getting tired of this one mod for Krobus not successfully changing his sprite, so I was going to override the base game file with the sprite I want.

[royal arrow]

You ought to check for a Content Patcher (CP) alternative

!xnb

[native dragon]

XNB mods often break the game and are not recommended. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods for more info (and a list of Content Patcher alternatives), and https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files to fix problems caused by XNB mods. For mod creators, see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).

[low wharf]

I am using a CP alternative

[neat plaza]

!unpack

[low wharf]

it's Elven Krobus. I got a CP version of the mod, and I have the standardize Krobus installed as well since it's dependent. Profile, events, etc all changed to the elven one, all but his sprite.

[native dragon]

@low wharf See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files#Unpack_game_files for instructions on how to unpack XNB files in order to edit the assets inside!

[dense trench]

Omyghad thank you

[royal arrow]

So is your issue that the standardize Krobus is overwriting the sprite changes from Elven Krobus? If so, you could set a dependency so that Elven Krobus depends on standardize Krobus, and Elven Krobus then wins the change

[dawn mantle]

well that's one pack done..

[royal arrow]

.quote 5308

[devout pumice]

[#5308] "It is possible to set a dependency in the manifest.json of a mod you want to load last / win a conflict. The way the dependencies work, if mod A depends on mod B, mod B loads before mod A.

[dawn mantle]

converting CF to AT is tedious

[low wharf]

Alright, thank you! I will try this out before messing with the xnb files.

[dawn mantle]

and yes, that is a front facing version of the bar at the bottom

[low wharf]

Okay so Elven Krobus already has the dependency code in its manifest.json....

[royal arrow]

For the standardize Krobus mod?

Also is the standardize Krobus mod the one actually causing the issue? I just took a guess and said that's the case

You can test temporarily removing the standardize Krobus mod and see if the Elven Krobus sprites load

If they don't, something else is causing the conflict

[dawn mantle]

theys tables now

[low wharf]

It does not load. (Easy check because terminal yells at me about it)

[cloud glen]

https://smapi.io/log/41baf2ef230e4854b5cc8d488bcb803d

good news

less errors

but still having issues somewhere

[royal arrow]

Can you provide your 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?

[low wharf]

https://smapi.io/log/3fe4855ebefa4f4c918a94b624100f13

[royal arrow]

Ok wait a minute, you are missing standardize Krobus according to this here
- CP Elven Krobus 1.1.0 because it requires mods which aren't installed (minervamaga.StandardizedKrobus).

so that's why Elven Krobus isn't loading

[low wharf]

yeah, normally I have it installed. I took it out to test to see if it would load.

when it's installed, no errors in terminal

just Krobus looks like he's standing on his own head instead of the floor. (and still shado dude)

[royal arrow]

I didn't realize Elven Krobus required standardize krobus, my bad

Ok

can you run a patch summary?

!patchsummary

[native dragon]

Can you do these steps to provide more info?

1. Load your save and view the content that should be patched.
2. Type patch summary directly into the SMAPI window and press enter.

[cloud glen]

i honestly can't figure out what the issue is

[low wharf]

SpaceCore isn't loading properly for starters. Also another issue later that could come up is that you have grandpa's farm and Immersive farm 2 both installed.

[chrome cosmos]

youre using spacecore 1.6.0 which is for the stardew beta

you should be using spacecore 1.5.11

[cloud glen]

i changed that but still getting errors

https://smapi.io/log/2c51efd9456845e6b32e1eb007352dfb

[royal arrow]

Ok so I see that for the sprite and portrait changes, it says that the changes loaded, but not that they applied.
Does Krobus have the changed portraits at least?

Oh, wait a minute.

Slightly Cuter Characters affects the Krobus sprite as well

[low wharf]

ahhhhhh

okay makes sense

I'll disable that portion of that mod then

[royal arrow]

Does that have a config you can turn that off?

oki

[low wharf]

THANK YOU

XD I will figure it out if it has one or not

[royal arrow]

You're welcome

[low wharf]

if not, file will be taken out

or edited, as it apparently needs to be. looking at you KrobusRaven.png

[chrome cosmos]

you're still on 1.6.0

[cloud glen]

I just deleted all the mods and went back to my original ones

all works fine now

lesson learned dont try change anything

[steady tapir]

hey guys ^^ i need help with something please

i've been trying to start a new save with remixed bundles, but every time, they're the default ones

my smapi error log seems to indicate something is wrong with bundle generation but i don't know how to fix it

[main ingot]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[steady tapir]

https://smapi.io/log/12b1dd0cb2ea4b1e8c6c88705957c4aa

[frigid quiver]

There was a mod I used previously that has since been taken down. Is there anything similar to this, or a place where I can find a version of this that works?

[main ingot]

update spacecore and see if it works @steady tapir

[steady tapir]

I tried updating spacecore and the game wouldn't even run

[main ingot]

as in it would take a long time to load or just wouldnt open,

[steady tapir]

wouldn't open

[main ingot]

hm

well

¯_(ツ)_/¯ take out the bundles mod then, since its messing with your game

[steady tapir]

which bundles mod?

[main ingot]

the one … remixing your bundles ..?

[steady tapir]

it's in the default game

this thing

[main ingot]

then turn it off

[steady tapir]

some mod must be preventing it from working

[glossy sierra]

Remixed bundles are vanilla

[main ingot]

just. switch it off until u figure it out

[steady tapir]

I'm trying to figure out

[worthy moth]

The error says it has a problem with Roe, so perhaps something is editing the asset it depends on

In that case, it could be any one of your JA/CP packs, but hard to determine without digging into each of them

[steady tapir]

Maybe it's the fish well mod?

[worthy moth]

It doesn't look like anything is touching bundle data itself, so it's not the actual bundles that are getting broken, just the items they depend on

(If it was the bundles getting edited, you'd see a trace log saying [Something] edited Data\Bundles)

[steady tapir]

something else that has been happening is that even if i check the "skip intro" option, it will play the intro

i don't know if it's related or not

[worthy moth]

Yeah could be, if the game is failing to generate the bundles, it could crash the whole new game stuff including that option

Roe is in Data\ObjectInformation which it looks like Json Assets is the only thing editing that

[steady tapir]

so if i remove json and it's associated mods, maybe my problem will disappear?

[worthy moth]

Maybe test that out, start a new game without JA at all and see if it stops happening or not

[steady tapir]

nope

same error

https://smapi.io/log/0a8da62f64d64f66ade19cc3f0bf876e

[old spire]

try validating your game files rq?

[worthy moth]

Oh yeah, that's probably the answer

!reset

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.)

If the game doesn't recognize one of it's own items, the game data likely got corrupted somehow

[steady tapir]

this might be a good sign

Hello everyone

I installed SMAPI and got this error

Oops! SMAPI couldn't load the game executable. The technical details below may have more info.

Does anyone know how to fix?

[old spire]

how did you install it? can you walk me through your steps?

[limber mason]

I followed this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ULXeC9CL0c

something conflict between 32 bit and 6

64 bit

i think

I already reinstalled the game, the XNA, Framework

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

[royal arrow]

We don't recommend video guides because they can become outdated. We have a wiki guide that we know is updated with step by step instructions and screenshots

[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

[old spire]

good call

[naive drum]

That guide is for version 2.10 and smapi is up to 3.12 for 32 bit stardew and 3.13 for the beta 64 bit

[weary hill]

Hey, just sent you a PM. Was hoping you can help us get to the bottom of why some beta files are getting marked as "Default".

[naive drum]

Saw the pm. Dont know, haven't checked those mods in a few days, they were specifically mods being mirrored from nexusmods

[weary hill]

Was it happening to all your mods or just certain ones?

Or was it not happening to your mods and only other authors' mods? (Yours aren't on Nexus now right?)

[weary hill]

@naive drum I'm just trying to pin down what's causing mods to get mis-categorized and I'm wondering if the Nexus API / sync feature is the culprit.

[naive drum]

It wasn't happening to my mods

It was happening to pathoschilds mods, and he mirrors from exus

When he manually set the non beta as default, it got aet back

[weary hill]

Do you know of a specific mod we can look at?

[shell jackal]

waves to Wing

[weary hill]

I can ping Pathos if you aren't sure

[naive drum]

Probably jdonassets

Needs to have a beta version still up on nexus, pathos removed lot of those as soon as 1.5.5 could handle the non beta versions

[weary hill]

kk. Thanks for the heads up on this. I thought we had it resolved after the last patch, but there's clearly something still going on. I'll dig deeper and ping Pathos for additional info.

[surreal ravine]

Hi I have just started with using the UI info mod, when i load into a newer farm it works fine. but if i load into an older farm the settings are unaccessable is there a reason for this?

[snow wraith]

the ui info suite on nexus was last updated before 1.5 gave you separate zoom options for the UI and the game world. Now you have to have both zoom settings at the same % for the buttons and overlays to line up properly.
I don't think that or the few other inconsistencies are ever going to get fixed. You could get https://github.com/Annosz/UIInfoSuite2/releases instead

[surreal ravine]

ok thanks, the zoom trick worked.

[terse bane]

are there any mods yall recommend

[old spire]

[native dragon]

Check out https://gist.github.com/Pathoschild/b608892d3e60bd25d0eea71ca7584649 for a list of mods recommended by Pathoschild! They're all compatible with the latest versions of SMAPI and Stardew Valley on Linux/Mac/Windows.

[terse bane]

ty

[dire fractal]

does anyone have any names of really aesthetic mods?

[pine fjord]

What kind of aesthetic are you into?

[dire fractal]

literally anything to change the look of the game haha

[pine fjord]

Well there's a lot lol

I personally use everything by Gwen!

medieval buildings

way back pelican town

and medieval craftables!

It makes everything SO gorgeous imo, and the scarecrows in that mod are seasonal and beautiful

it's also very fitting with vanilla !

[dire fractal]

tysm!

[pine fjord]

Of course!

grabbed em for you

see if they're your style!

[brazen hawk]

A Wittily Named Recolor, Wildflower Grass, Better Crops...those are from the top of my head

Oh and if you want a map that has forest aesthetics, I like the "Overgrown Garden" map

[glacial briar]

I've got a whole category of them for you. 😄 https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/categories/25/

[topaz matrix]

who need help

[void ivy]

is there a mod that allows you to date Jodi? and if yes, what happens to Kent?

[chrome cosmos]

there are probably some out there but be warned that they're very...poorly written

so if you're looking for something thats actually good quality with these and not just "oh you can now marry [insert non-bachelor character] but they dont actually act like a spouse!" then im afraid you might have to make your own

[dire fractal]

can i add many mods at once?

[chrome cosmos]

yes, you can

as long as everything is compatible

[dire fractal]

ok cool thanks!

[naive drum]

ive got like 740 mods

so yeah, you can have a lot of mods

[timid wyvern]

i have a question i am having issues with SMAPI

i try to uninstall it

says its not there

i try to install it says i need to uninstall it

i am very frustrated

[dire fractal]

do i direct download SMAPI or nexus?

[naive drum]

...??? shadowz where did you get SMAPI from, you don't need to uninstall it to reinstall it??

[timid wyvern]

oh

i am not sure how to use the mod i have then

[naive drum]

and morgan it literally does not matter

[timid wyvern]

cause i am confused

[naive drum]

shadowz can you please give more information on this problem

!log if possible

[native dragon]

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

[old spire]

its ok if you are confused

its confusing

[timid wyvern]

sure i have somthing called CJBCheatsMenu i downhloaded it some time ago and not sure if tis still there i only buse this when i am messing around on a single player server but i was not sure how to go about this

[naive drum]

screenshots would also be helpful in this case

okay you need to have that unzipped to your mods folder; you might have the wrong version if you downloaded it a long time ago?

[old spire]

can you also show us your mod folder?

[naive drum]

there's been smapi updates

[timid wyvern]

yea

i am just not sure how to work with SMAPI cause it says i cannot find it

[old spire]

ok

[timid wyvern]

and when i try to install it, It says its still installed on my computer

[old spire]

what are you doing to install smapi?

[timid wyvern]

I was using Nexus

[naive drum]

where are you getting SMAPI from, and what do you mean by "it says its still installed on my computer"

[timid wyvern]

I installed SMAPI 3.12.6 installer

when i click on it

and hit the bat file it prompts me

[old spire]

ok

what next

can you screenshot or copy the error?

[timid wyvern]

yes

and this has been stopping me from using any mods

[naive drum]

when was the last time you restarted your computer?

do you have stardew valley currently open right now?

[timid wyvern]

i dont have stardew open right now

[naive drum]

and also your antivirus might be screwing with it

[timid wyvern]

and i restarted this some time ago

i have no antivirus

i clean my computer manually

[naive drum]

that's not "you need to uninstall SMAPI" that's "the update isn't working because the old version is currentlly open"

so do you have any part of console commands currently open in any program

[timid wyvern]

i can check in task manager

[naive drum]

also, you're on windows, so unless you manually disabled it you have windows defender

[timid wyvern]

no i deleted the windows defenderf some time ago

i installed smapi some time before as well

and i am wondering if it just needs an update

[naive drum]

it needs an update but it is locked out of accessing its own files because something else is using them

[old spire]

can you try manually deleting the file the error mentioned

[timid wyvern]

i can see if that works but i am not sure where to look

[old spire]

the one it was trying to delete

it shows the file path in the error

[naive drum]

go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods

[timid wyvern]

i see smapi-internal

[naive drum]

and delete the Console Commands and Save Backup folders, and Error Handler if it's there

[timid wyvern]

what about the smapi-internal

cause the mods i have are up to date

[naive drum]

leave that

it's specifically erroring on trying to remove the outdated console commands, which is in the mods folder

[timid wyvern]

so just delete everything in the mod fikder

folder

[naive drum]

no, specifically Console Commands and Save Backup

and, if present, Error Handler

those three are SMAPI components that are installed into the Mods folder

[timid wyvern]

so do i go into the save backups delete whats in there

[naive drum]

no

[timid wyvern]

hmm

[old spire]

the error handler, save backups, and console commands folders themselves

[naive drum]

go into the Mods folder

[timid wyvern]

i am in the mod folder

[naive drum]

okay inside the mods folder, delete the folder named Console COmmands

and the folder named Save Backup

[timid wyvern]

so dlete both of these

[naive drum]

yes

[timid wyvern]

1 deleted the other said it was open in another location

ok i got it

[old spire]

close out any applications that might be using it

[naive drum]

yeah, the one that's "open in another location" is the one that's holding up the smapi update process

[old spire]

if that doesn't work i would restart your computer

[timid wyvern]

so there both in my recycle bin

do i empty it

[old spire]

that shouldn't be necessary

[timid wyvern]

ok

now what do i do?

[old spire]

try running the installer again

[naive drum]

run the smapi installer again

[timid wyvern]

ok

ok now it says it installed

[old spire]

heck yeah

[timid wyvern]

so is there a app on my desktop that i see this or will my mods now run

[old spire]

is your installer window still open?

[naive drum]

it's in your Stardew Valley folder; the installer also gave you a line of code to copy into your steam launch options for stardew valely

*valley

[old spire]

!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

[timid wyvern]

oh my word

i didnt get the line of code i needed for the launch option

[naive drum]

you can run the installer again, don't worry

[timid wyvern]

what line of code do i need

cause i just see one

[naive drum]

it starts with " and ends with %

that one

then you go to Steam, right-click on Stardew Valley, and click Properties

and there is a section that says Launch Options. you paste that line of code the smapi installer gave you in there

[timid wyvern]

ok then what

[naive drum]

launch the game and it'll have SMAPI!

[timid wyvern]

says my mods are no longer compatible

sigh what a drag

[old spire]

give us your 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?

[timid wyvern]

ok

[old spire]

we can get through this

[naive drum]

probably because there's been SMAPI and mod and possibly even game updates since you installed those mods!

[old spire]

wow that is an old version

[naive drum]

whooo yeah thats a really old version of item spawner

[timid wyvern]

oh man

[old spire]

just update it and you should be home free

[naive drum]

that's the april 2020 version; it's outdated even for stardew valley 1.4 aka android stardew

[old spire]

yiiiiiikes

[naive drum]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/93?tab=files

overwrite that old version with the new version and it'll work!

[timid wyvern]

so the one you have her

here

[naive drum]

yeh

[timid wyvern]

then i out the fodle rin here i think

folder

[meager sail]

I migrated to the 64-bit beta because of memory errors, and might have gone a little mod-happy. I'm sitting at ~300 mods, and everything is working fine, except I have this annoying frame stuttering. I'm still maxing fps according to the counter, but it's giving me motion sickness. Is there an easy way to look at which mods are using the most resources or something like that?

[timid wyvern]

still says its not cmopatiblw

[old spire]

screenshot?

[timid wyvern]

ok

[old spire]

you downloaded the version for android mobile

[timid wyvern]

oh

[naive drum]

did you..replace the item spawner...with an outdated cheats menu??

because earlier it said Item Spawner, and now it says Cheats Menu, whcih is a separate mod that you mihgt also like

[old spire]

either way this is still outdated

[timid wyvern]

let me try now

it worked

XD

now i need to know how it works lol

lookslike i am odd to find out lol

[naive drum]

cheats menu: press P to open the menu

[timid wyvern]

ty

[naive drum]

item spawn: press I to open the item spawner UI

[timid wyvern]

how do i activate the cheats though

cause i think it asks in a box i think

ok i think i found it

cheat menu failed the spawner worked i think

[naive drum]

maybe you still have the really old cheats menu

[timid wyvern]

well i took that out

and i put in the new one

its letting me see all the stuff in the game

but is not allowing me to see anything when i hit p
