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

[naive drum]

parsed log please, follow the instructions in the link'

[timid wyvern]

ok

not sure if this is what you are looking for

[naive drum]

@tired brook guy tried to parse his log and got a weird error

mrdj does that page have a link you can paste in here?

[timid wyvern]

i can try

[naive drum]

or is it just smapi.io/log with no long postfix?

[timid wyvern]

https://smapi.io/log

[naive drum]

oh dear.

[timid wyvern]

its this one

[naive drum]

can you upload the log file here, directly?

[timid wyvern]

oh man

there is this with it

[naive drum]

shadowz can you please upload your smapi-log.txt to this chat.

[timid wyvern]

i thought i did though

[naive drum]

you have posted screenshots

those are not the same

[timid wyvern]

oh

im not sure how to find those

[old spire]

go to that link

[royal arrow]

The link tells you where to find the actual log file

[naive drum]

did you upload a screenshot to the log parser site?!

[upper ember]

Open a folder, any folder, and type %appdata% in the searchbar

[timid wyvern]

ok

[upper ember]

You should find a Stardew Valley folder, go into it, there's another folder called Errorlogs

Drag the file inside of that, onto the Smapi log box on it's website

[royal arrow]

(I just noticed your pfp is it an intense lovey face, or an angy face surrounded by hearts? )

[old spire]

its open to interpretation

[timid wyvern]

like this i think

[old spire]

share the link

[timid wyvern]

ok

[old spire]

like in the green box

[timid wyvern]

https://smapi.io/log/830811144a9f41fa8e91230fa4cfafd6

[old spire]

you did it! i dont see any errors, what was your problem again?

[naive drum]

you entirely deleted the cheats menu from your mods folder

there isn't even a .zip waiting patiently for you to unzip it

[timid wyvern]

i am guessing thats really bad

[old spire]

its easy to fix dw

[royal arrow]

It means the mod isn't there to be loaded

[naive drum]

it means you don't have cheats menu installed and that's why the menu isn't popping up

[timid wyvern]

but how am i using it though

[royal arrow]

You just have to unzip it to have it be loaded

[naive drum]

you're using item spawner

[royal arrow]

Cheats Menu and Item Spawner are 2 different mods ye

[naive drum]

Item Spawner and Cheats Menu are different mods

[timid wyvern]

oh

[naive drum]

anyways it is lunchtime im going to go get food

[timid wyvern]

i am sorry i am learning

[old spire]

youre totally fine dj

[royal arrow]

No worries! I have certainly been there wondering why a mod wasn't working all and then it turns out I hadn't installed it 😅

[timid wyvern]

how do install a cheat menu

[old spire]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4?tab=files

download the 1.29.1 version

manual download

[timid wyvern]

i think it works

[old spire]

nice!

[timid wyvern]

yay

it works

[old spire]

:D:D:D:D:D

[sacred marten]

Flash posted another sneak peak of an SVE update he’s working on! I have 160 mods i absolutely can’t go without so if i have to buy a better pc to enjoy this update so be it!!

[naive drum]

on the flipside i've installed mods to the wrong mods folders

as in, i install a bunch of celeste mods, and then some time later i get a problem with stardew valley and go parse my smapi log and find that in addition to information about the problem i actually notice, there's a bunch of "Skipped [Celeste mod] because it's not a SMAPI mod"

it sure isn't!

it's an Everest mod!

[hoary musk]

So started new file recently and downloaded Everfarm mod, the map is HUGE but I like it. Is there a easier way to clear debris without having to manually clear it out?

[zinc peak]

you have changed my virtual life

[naive drum]

tractor mod

and better junimos forestry

[hoary musk]

Ok, I'll take a look into it.

[viral garden]

I've been trying to get the same mod list as one of my friends. It's alright if I just download their mod folder and then copy paste it into mine right?

[old spire]

it should work

[viral garden]

Everytime I try booting up the moddingAPI I keep getting error messages about assembly binding logging. Is this a common error?

[zinc peak]

correct. the hardest part of stardew modding is the very first part: installing SMAPI

the rest is literally copy and paste. If you're downloading a friends mod list via a compressed archive, then the second hardest part comes into play: knowing the difference between "Extract To" and "Extract Here"

[royal arrow]

Is it this? https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#.22Could_not_load_file_or_assembly.22

[dire fractal]

hi, my mods arent loading?? theyre installed, unzipped, in the mods folder, loaded through steam etc but it just takes me to vanilla game

[royal arrow]

Did you set the Steam launch options?

!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

[royal arrow]

The guide has the steps with screenshots

[dire fractal]

yeah, i did, but its not working??

[naive drum]

is SMAPI launching alongside the game?

[dire fractal]

how do i check that

I have the SMAPI command screen up

[naive drum]

OK and it looks like your mods are installed and running!

which mods did you install?

[dire fractal]

but its not showing the mods, like im still in vanilla game

[naive drum]

!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]

though...neither of those mods that have visible changes change the inside of the farmhouse, or the main menu screen

eemie's medieval modern buildings changes the coop, greenhouse, barn, etc

and seasonal cute characters i think changes the portraits of NPCs?

[dire fractal]

yeah

nothing has changed?

[royal arrow]

Can you share your log using the link in this Governor message?

[hot ore]

Hey @tired brook im all good for more testing

[dire fractal]

yeah do I just share it here or in dms?

[naive drum]

OH i think i've foun the problem

[royal arrow]

Linking it here is fine

[dire fractal]

https://smapi.io/log/2f13d051ca40421db003d6d6d477eb90

[naive drum]

morgan - are you playing on the Forest farm?

[dire fractal]

yes

[naive drum]

hmm

did you change the config of Eemie's to have something other than "Forest" in WhichFarmType?

[dire fractal]

i dont think so?

gimme a sec

[royal arrow]

Incidentally, did you try talking to an NPC to see if the portraits / sprites were different? Or has it just been the buildings so far o:

[naive drum]

also it looks like the seasonal character outfits thing worked, i'm seeing a lot of "edited Characters[name]" in the Trace level of that log

[dire fractal]

omg thank you, i did change the farm type

tysm

[naive drum]

yeah that'd do it

[tired brook]

• @timid wyvern I'd be interested to get a copy of the file that caused that error.

[naive drum]

not sure why that mod is set to only apply on one farm type at a time by default?

[royal arrow]

Like it only works on the 1 farm type?

I've only seen that with farm replacement mods before

Not building replacement mods

[naive drum]

yeah it's weird

you can change the farm type it works on too?

by default it's forest

[tired brook]

Hi! Let me just get set up, and I'll send you the next build soon.

[hot ore]

Kk

[naive drum]

oh pathoschild some further detail on that bizarre error shadowz got: i think he tried to paste a screenshot into the log parser and for some reason it let him try?

[tired brook]

Hmm, need to add OCR support.

[boreal blaze]

anybody else suddenly have trouble with spacecore? did the main game update suddenly today or something?

[naive drum]

but seriously if an image file gets pasted in there it could maybe say "hey, this is the wrong file type to be a SMAPI log" or something

!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]

speaking of logs one would be helpful basket!

[boreal blaze]

I went back to an earlier version of spacecore and taht seems to have fixed it eventually

oh ok it's not doing it anymore tho

[royal arrow]

Did you inadvertently get the version for the beta?

I dunno if that's still a separate version

[boreal blaze]

I ran the game today for an hour or two, then went back to run again tonight without changing anything and it went nuts

steam auto update was my only guess

[naive drum]

do you have a mod manager, like moddrop or vortex?

[boreal blaze]

vortex

[naive drum]

vortex sometimes causes problems and there are beta spacecore versions out that only work on the beta stardew

[boreal blaze]

my log was more or less like the post from the 7th of september here https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1348?tab=posts

I will put it down to vortex then thank you

[tired brook]

@hot ore Can you try with this version?

[hot ore]

kk

working fine just had to open it a second time for it to work

@tired brook

[tired brook]

What happened the first time?

[hot ore]

just froze in the game window

all black

[tired brook]

If you do a few more times, does it intermittently fail?

[hot ore]

nope opening all good

[tired brook]

🤔

[hot ore]

whats up

[tired brook]

Curious about why it failed, but only that first time.

Can you try with this build?

[royal arrow]

Maybe you were right last time you called it and said it'd only work on the 2nd try 🤡

[hot ore]

anything else you want me to try

@tired brook

[tired brook]

Yep, that new version right above.

[hot ore]

oh sorry i cant believe i didn't see that

opened the first time this time

nvm it froze

fading into the concerned ape logo

@tired brook

[tired brook]

And if try it again a couple times, does it freeze every time?

[hot ore]

worked the second and third time

[tired brook]

I'd be curious if you have the same issue with Stardew Valley 1.5.5-beta and SMAPI 3.13.0-beta. 🤔

I have no idea what's causing it with 3.12.6 at this point. We're right back to the version that was failing consistently before, but now it mostly works.

[hot ore]

yea

well im done for tonight but ill ttyl

[tired brook]

Good night!

[heavy lynx]

hi so my house is not having a good time and everyone now lives in a void?
my log: https://smapi.io/log/abd267a913744658a00e140bdc73274a

i know that i was using the country town interior mod and i removed it now and then everything went bonkers

[shy orbit]

i don't know if it's related to your issue, but you seem to have two mods (or one mod even) adding a crafting recipe for "Fairy Bush" Exception injecting crafting recipe for Fairy Bush: System.ArgumentException: Já foi adicionado um item com a mesma chave.

[heavy lynx]

hmm let me check

ooh I found them

they r two different mods that have the same name, how weird cus im using them for some time already and they r both working when i play the game

[terse bane]

idk if i should use mods rn to make my first playtrought more fun or use it later so i get less bored of my second playtrought

what should i do

[ocean terrace]

how do i exactly use mods

i have stardew 1.5.4

[terse bane]

do you want me to send you a link of a tutorial

[ocean terrace]

yeah

you can send it in dms that's okay

[terse bane]

thx.

[pine fjord]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

@ocean terrace 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

[pine fjord]

I haven't watched the video personally but sometimes they can be not-up-to-date

so the wiki is always a good, reliable source

[heavy lynx]

nope, I changed the name of one of them and that was not the problem at all, my house is still broken

i also did the game files reset on steam and nothing changed

[heavy lynx]

new log: https://smapi.io/log/05c6a47173304477ab02e4e52d88b868

[naive drum]

your smapi is outdated, you have 3.12.0, but the current version is 3.12.6

[heavy lynx]

oh everyone can update it normaly now? i though it was still in beta

[naive drum]

3.12.6 is the non-beta version!

[heavy lynx]

ooooh!!

[naive drum]

the beta version is 3.13

[heavy lynx]

okie okie ill give it a shot and hope for the best

[naive drum]

also try

!reset

[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 :)

[floral crater]

has anyone gotten SMAPI to launch with Gamescope on linux?

SMAPI detaches from the terminal instance it was launched on so gamescope can't attach to it

[ocean terrace]

does anyone have

the id

for the strongest pickaxe

(i need it)

[floral crater]

wow, getting SMAPI to attach to the current terminal is, uhh, quirky

it only attaches to the current terminal as a fallback on linux for whatever reason, so i just forced the fallback to happen by modifying the included launch script

[ocean terrace]

has anyone does this or its just me

[naive drum]

i think most people who want to do that use the Item Spawner mod, so they can search for things

also, i don't think console commands can safely spawn in, eg, iridium tools - but item spawner can

[heavy lynx]

I updated smapi and the others mods that needed to be updated and nothing changed, and i reset the files and it also did nothing 😭

[naive drum]

oh nooo

hmm

!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.
3. Upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page).
4. Post the log link here.

[heavy lynx]

okie okie

[vestal wolf]

So uh my SMAPI is up to date, and worked fine last night/this morning, but now Vortex is saying I don't have it installed???

[naive drum]

baffling

[vestal wolf]

Like??? I don't want to have to redownload it every time I play 😮‍💨

[pine fjord]

We heavily recommend not using Vortex or any mod manager

[naive drum]

its probably vortex having/making problems

[pine fjord]

Vortex loves to eat files and mess up things around your mods

.... or deleting smapi 😂

installing mod manually is super easy so

best do it yourself

[naive drum]

maybe it updated smapi or stardew to the beta

[vestal wolf]

I mean like once I get SMAPI reset, everything runs nice and smooth. But trying to get the initial boot up is just a pain. But now that I've got stuff downloaded I dunno if I trust myself to pull it all and then do it manually. The wiki was kinda hard to understand for me

[naive drum]

it's actually really simple

download mod; open the .zip or .rar or .7z that it's in; remove the folder inside the .zip; move that folder into the Mods folder; done

SMAPI handles all load order stuff

[vestal wolf]

😬

[pine fjord]

Vortex is known to cause a lot of issues in mods, and its bound to break it some more, not justthe SMAPI thing

it really is just as simple as downloading the mod, unzipping it and placing it in your mods folder!

[naive drum]

e.g. if you're installing a mod named Demanding Shipping, you'll click Manual Download and get a zip named something like DemandingShipping-7315-1-1-1-16097410.zip
open it and it contains this:

and you drag that folder into the Mods folder inside your Stardew Valley folder

[vestal wolf]

So I should slog through and do an uninstall then try and manually plop stuff where they should go?? I've only ever done Minecraft mods which goes through Overwolf & CurseForge, so doing things manually is kinda complicated to me for some reason

[heavy lynx]

here https://smapi.io/log/254a0f433a4741fc8c4549ffe9199f4e

[naive drum]

iirc you dont even need to uninstall

[vestal wolf]

Won't I have to uninstall Vortex?

[pine fjord]

Unfortunately while other games rely on mod managers heavily but stardew is best to do yourself

it's tedious work but I promise once you start it'll only take like 10 minutes tops!

from then its just updating when you need which takes a minute

[naive drum]

i don't use vortex, but i think you just launch stardew via steam (after setting your launch options) or from the SMAPI exe in the Stardew Valley folder

[naive drum]

i see a few mods touching the farmhouse map, like DoubleBed

[vestal wolf]

Tried, it gives me the can't find the game error

[naive drum]

and ChicCuteKitchen

kay you might need to run the SMAPI installer again

[heavy lynx]

hmmmm i think it might be this one cus its not really working

let me test

yeah that was not it </33

AHAAAA it might be PodRED default farmhouse mod cus it says replace instead of edit like chiccutekitchen does

[naive drum]

oh noooo

[heavy lynx]

and i think this mod is outdated too

if thats not it ill cry </33

[blissful abyss]

Hey, little confused, I'm having issues on 1.5.4 with farmer to florist. Keeps getting skipped because it's missing DGA stuff, but DGA is for the 1.5.5 beta? Any ideas on what could fix it?

Just take old file, maybe?

[naive drum]

yeh, take older farmer to florist file

the previous one - sort by date

[heavy lynx]

it was not it, i guess its goodbye chiccutekitchen then 😔

[covert palm]

I tried to download Ridgeside village, but I couldn't load because of this
purrplingcat.questframework am I doing something wrong?

Please tell me

[naive drum]

you probably need to download quest frameowrk

[covert palm]

Let me check

Oh, I haven't unzip the quest framework

[ocean obsidian]

What is a good way to use mod in multiplayer if you are using like a hundreds of them?

and the person you are playing is tech illiterate or won't put in the effort to download them 1 by 1

I tried to copy the mod folder over

is there other methods you guys tried

[pine fjord]

I just update all mods myself and then zip up my mods folder and hand them to them

best way to ensure compatibility imo!

[ocean obsidian]

hmm she doesn't even have smapi tho

maybe I should download it for her manually

boot stardew up for her once

and then drag the mods into the folder

instead of manually copying smapi over

[naive drum]

oh yeah the smapi installer will need to be ran on her computer once

[heavy lynx]

my internet died for a while but we r back and whit good news everybody 😎

it worked! my game is back to normal

cute chic kitchen was the one causing my house to go bonkers

and the npcs living in voids was a small mistake on a mod i converted

the bad news: i dont have a cute kitchen anymore <//333

[naive drum]

there are some other kitchen mods! search "kitchen" on nexus mods

[heavy lynx]

ye ye! ill give a look later on

and thank u sooooo much for helping me <33

[terse cargo]

Hello! I'm using the 64x bit version, how can I install the latest smapi update?

[naive drum]

go to the smapi.io page and it's the button that is not green

[terse cargo]

it shows me this one sadly

idk what that means

i went to the link in the system box

and now idk whether to choose console app or desktop app

halp

[sacred marten]

Anyone familiar with the animal husbandry mod?

[naive drum]

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/5.0 this dotnet?

grab the desktop runtime version

[terse cargo]

oh okay! thank you

[quick crow]

@naive drum Hello! I remember you mentioning having over 800 mods in Stardew Valley a couple days ago

[naive drum]

that was back in 1.4

the current version is 1.5 and i have around 740 right now

[quick crow]

Would it be possible by any chance to see your mods that you have loaded in, currently?

That's been bugging my curiosity since the other day

[naive drum]

sure, i'll get you a parsed SMAPI log which has a nice organised list

https://smapi.io/log/6721761cee954fdc9e8d7625a73bc49d

[quick crow]

Appreciate the time to do so! Thank you kindly

[naive drum]

note that im still on smapi 3.12.5, because i'm waiting on Love of Cooking's update

(1.5.5 compatibility, bugfixes, and a new feature that i'm looking forward to trying out)

[quick crow]

It's funny you mention that. I was just looking in the chat for info on it.

Is it game breaking if I temporarily remove Love of Cooking from my mod folder , because I do have it installed on the beta version ?

[naive drum]

not game breaking

[quick crow]

Buggy?

[naive drum]

Love of Cooking does add a few items though

make sure you don't have any Love of Cooking dishes in your inventory without LoC installed

[quick crow]

Oh, ok! I'm planning on starting a new save. I think I'll be good then

[terse cargo]

Hello! Again, I have to ask why it isn't working ><

It's where my 64x-bit stardew file is ><

[shy orbit]

smapi 3.13 is for the official 64 bit beta version of the game (and smapi doesn't support the unofficial 64 bit beta since 3.12.6 i think)

[dense trench]

would it be safe if I copy my mod files including content patcher, smapi, and content patcher animation to another computer? I play sdv both pc and laptop for working

and my mods file are in my laptop which I just downloaded

and I want it to copy it to my compuer

[terse cargo]

oh then how do i do that then

[shy orbit]

should be fine. the only difference compared to installing them fresh should be that the mod folders will have config files and possibly some save specific data

[shy orbit]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Migrate_to_64-bit_on_Windows#Enable_64-bit_mode

[terse cargo]

um so yes I did do that -

[native dragon]

@terse cargo You leveled up to Cowpoke. You can now speak in our voice channels and share images in all channels!

[shy orbit]

i haven't used the official beta, but i don't think it would be in the depot folder

[terse cargo]

oh okay!

thanks so much

last question, where do i get again what ill be putting in steam so i can play with achievements on?

[shy orbit]

the installer should print it to the console after the installation is done

[terse cargo]

thank you!

[shy orbit]

no problem

[dense trench]

if the mod released new version, will it automatically update my mod file or should I manually install that new version?

[chrome cosmos]

you'd need to delete the old mod and install the new one

[dense trench]

that's very manual. Aight thanks

btw, do I really have to install all of this first before installing expanded mod? It seems there are others here that are unnecessary? Such as map toolkit and FTM based on their descriptions

[glacial briar]

You're right, they listed them all for fun. 😛

Did you look at the very detailed installation instructions?

[dense trench]

yes...

And I think they're risky. It could corrupt my files

[outer turret]

They will not corrupt your files and they are necessary!

It is very hard to corrupt your save file nowadays

[dense trench]

so, what are the necessary things included there in order to play Expanded mod? Content patcher, expanded preconditions utility, json assets, SMAPI, Spacecore, and winter grass?

[outer turret]

All of them

You need all of them to run it. It is why they are additonal files required.

You could probably run it without farm type manager but you will get no forage on some maps.

Without tmxl toolkit and pytk it will not work.

[dense trench]

I see...

[outer turret]

Winter grass likewise you could remove and it will still run but the grass outside the farm will die and never regrow.

[dense trench]

Thank you

for your information. I love you for that

[outer turret]

You're welcome!

If you are worried for your save file start a new one! Your old one will be save but files are very resilient nowadays. mine has been through a lot.

[dense trench]

Right. I just backed up my main file. THanks again

[dire fractal]

can someone help me stardew valley expanded mod

it doesnt work

[brazen hawk]

Mobile or PC? And what exactly happens when you load the game?

[dire fractal]

pc

[dire fractal]

i installed the mods and when i launch smapi everything look good but when the game opens smapi spam some red text

[brazen hawk]

You should post the link to your SMAPI log.

I don't know how you can do that, but I'm sure someone else here can tell you how.

[dire fractal]

oh ok

[floral harness]

same problem here

[chrome cosmos]

!log both sxynix and buttersofi

[native dragon]

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

[dire fractal]

https://smapi.io/log/368bafb469f04e6491a105d3cf88e977

here

how do i fix

[tender fractal]

Hello! At first I thought I was downloading my mods wrong but it just seems like mods are not working for me at all. I can not load any mods.

[dire fractal]

map took kit has 3187 errors

[tender fractal]

I think you need to update some of those mods and make sure you don't download the beta version

[outer turret]

Sxynix is using the betas.

[dire fractal]

what

how do i use normals

i just installed the mods

[outer turret]

Download the ones that dont say "beta" on them. There should be multiples in the files page.

Are you using nexus?

[dire fractal]

oh ok

[dire fractal]

yes

oof i need again to install the additional mods for stardew valley expanded :(

[outer turret]

Yes. You will see in your log a list of the ones that didnt load.

[chrome cosmos]

not loading as in smapi is skipping them?

[tender fractal]

As in Stardew just won't open or load if i have mods on

[chrome cosmos]

assuming youre on PC, do you have steam launch options set?

if not, what device/platform?

[tender fractal]

I have a mac so I don't think i have launch options set to anything

oop nevermind i think that is a pc, i will check

[naive drum]

oh chewpakka if you're on mac - which doesnt need launch options - there's a known bug and an in-testing SMAPI installer change to fix it

#archived-modded-support message <- try this installer

[chrome cosmos]

oh! true!!

[tender fractal]

oh was that just me downloading SMAPI

If so, I have already had it downloaded but I can redownload it (I have also tried redownloading mono)

[naive drum]

did you install SMAPI from that discord message i linked?

[tender fractal]

Yes!!

[naive drum]

ok!

close the game and reopen it

[tender fractal]

And the mod worked!! I will now try my modpack

Thank you so much I have been trying to get mods to work for 2 days now haha

[dire fractal]

smapi say i need space core 1.6.0 but it is beta

bruh

[naive drum]

3.12.6 was just consistently broken, but that alpha version seems to be only broken on the first ever launch of it on that specific machine

sxynix are you using 1.5.5 stardew?

[dire fractal]

uhhh

let me check

i have 1.5.4

ima update

[naive drum]

dont need to

[dire fractal]

but how ima play if i need space core 1.6.0

[naive drum]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[dire fractal]

i used 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]

(you probably installed a beta mod)

you need to paste the log link here

[dire fractal]

no

i didnt

[naive drum]

you need to paste the log link here, sxy

@dire fractal please paste the link to your parsed log here.

[dire fractal]

ok

and ima give u the link ok?

[floral harness]

I tried to get the URL but I get this

[naive drum]

yeah szy

buttersofi, try restarting stardew and grabbing the log earlier

[floral harness]

yeah it started to spam errors

[naive drum]

yeah, the most likely kind of TMXL error you got is the one with a couple of possible causes but the shared result of an error every frame

[floral harness]

I updated some mods but I think I messed up somewhere or just the process overall

like I replaced the files for the updated ones...

hopefully I don't lose anything

[naive drum]

replacing files is usually fine except for JA mods and large content patcher mods

[floral harness]

like Stardew expanded?

[sudden loom]

Are there any good mods that you guys would recommend trying?

[naive drum]

yep, like stardew expanded.

[sudden loom]

Actually checking that out right now

[floral harness]

starblue valley

makes everything look way nicer

[naive drum]

oh drakien there's a whole mod recs category on the moddding wiki

[sudden loom]

Oh

[floral harness]

but do you mean quality of life or just mods that expand the experience

[dire fractal]

YAAAAY

i made it work

it works now

without any problems

[sudden loom]

honestly both

[naive drum]

yay sxy!

[sudden loom]

To update Smapi i need to reinstall it right?

[naive drum]

yeah

[floral harness]

bigger backpack, tractor

sprinklers installation in the crop building forgot the name

[dense trench]

did you guys also installed expanded mod version of your grandpa's farm? Does it also have events?

[floral harness]

I didn't

[dense trench]

when you installed sve?

[floral harness]

btw which of the SMAPI files do I download to update it

[sudden loom]

Does that make mods that i had on previous one not work anymore?

[floral harness]

back in July

[naive drum]

you may need to update them, but if you needed to update them there's a good chance they wouldn't have worked with the current stardew version anyways

[dense trench]

aight

[naive drum]

if you're using the main branch of stardew, 3.12.6; if you're using the beta branch (monogame64bit), 3.13

[dire fractal]

i want my pc to explode so i will add a shader mod

[sudden loom]

All mods i had worked on the 3.12.2 version

[floral harness]

alright, thank you

[glacial briar]

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

I suggest the Joja list personally 👍

[dire fractal]

whats better grandpa farm or immersive farm?

[glacial briar]

Waterfall Farm, obvs

[dire fractal]

i dont even know it

[glacial briar]

Dude, it's your save; pick the farm that looks good to you

[naive drum]

they should all work, but it'd be preferable to update your mods to the latest 3.12.x compatible version for bugfixes and added features

[glacial briar]

There are like a million: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/search/ (search the word "farm")

Maybe you want something like this: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9100

Maybe you like waterfalls: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8913

[floral harness]

yo that looks sick

[glacial briar]

Why not get Harvest Moony? https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8563

See all the things you can find if you just look?

[sudden loom]

alright

[floral harness]

btw h- where how do I reinstall smapi

[sudden loom]

can't find stardew valley.dll

[naive drum]

download the appripiate smapi version and run the installer

[floral harness]

that's all? I don't have to uninstall it or smth (previous version)

[naive drum]

most likely cause: you ran 3.13 installer but had stardew 1.5.4, or you ran smapi 3.12.6 installer but have stardew 1.5.5 (the beta)

yeah, you dont have to uninstall it or anything

[floral harness]

oh alright

I realized that I updated the mods without updating SMAPI

hopefully now I won't get error spasms anymore

[sudden loom]

yes i had 3.12.6

Do i need to unistall Stardew or?

[naive drum]

nope

if you're on the beta branch, switch SMAPI versions

[floral harness]

well at least it detects all 47 mods now

[sudden loom]

im trying to get the beta thing to work?

shouldn't i do it?

It wants to to locate game directory but i can't find the .dll

[naive drum]

drakien are you using beta stardew.

if you are using beta stardew you need to be using beta smapi.

[sudden loom]

How can i tell?

[naive drum]

if you're using beta stardew, its name in steam will have (monogame64bit) after it

[sudden loom]

It's not in beta then

[naive drum]

ok then you need smapi 3.12.6

and it'll want to know where your game is installed

[sudden loom]

Bruh

I had that version

I only installed beta cuz Expanded said so.

oh wait

it said beta

[naive drum]

you need to go down an Expanded version

[sudden loom]

nvm

[floral harness]

expanded somehow works now

it still says it needs to be updated but helll naw never updating again

also

[naive drum]

probably is the update checker not being able to handle beta versions and non-beta versions both needing update checks at once

[floral harness]

@naive drum thank you for your help

[naive drum]

np!

[floral harness]

(so many pufferfish emotes lmao)

[naive drum]

yeah pufferfish are the stardew valley mascot for some reason!

and then the pufferchick is the modding mascot

[sudden loom]

should work noow

[floral harness]

didn't know

I mean the first one

I thought they were the junimos

[naive drum]

haha yeah junimos and pufferfish

junimos make sense as a mascot, but pufferfish as the other mascot is a ??? how???

[floral harness]

y e a h

that's why I didn't expect it

they look cute do

[minor dagger]

Does anyone know of a mod where I can buy clay/fiber?

[brazen hawk]

There is a mod which allows you to spawn anything, I guess clay too

[runic cobalt]

But is different from buy

She/he want to buy, not to spawn from nowhere, i guess

And yes Cherry, there is. But I don't know how to find it. I can look for you

[warm bear]

Does UI info suite work with stardew valley expanded?

[runic cobalt]

Yes Rabbit

[warm bear]

Thanks

[runic cobalt]

@Cherry 🍒#0956 https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9471

[runic cobalt]

.

This is for clay

[minor dagger]

Thanks i really appreciate it!!

Always bothered me that it was really complicated to get clay until ||Ginger Island||

[runic cobalt]

I didn't find anything about Fiber, Sorry :(

[minor dagger]

Its fine I'm sure I'll find something

[runic cobalt]

There is a mod to grow Fiber but 1.5 already have It so idk

[minor dagger]

Yeah worst case scenario I just can do that

[runic cobalt]

Since you can edit the files to get more Fiber per harvest

[lunar cipher]

There's also Buy More Materials, which adds a ton of various things for sale including fiber and clay: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8186

[minor dagger]

Thank you very much!

[lunar cipher]

No problem 😄

[dense trench]

waht could be the reason why sandy is not part of marriageable npcs

in expanded mod.

[outer turret]

That's prob s question for a different server.

Since Flash isnt active here.

[dense trench]

I see.

[dire fractal]

Huh

[dense trench]

what if theres a new version of expanded mod, and I had to update it by deleting my old expanded mod file and replacing it with new version... will my progress in my farm not get corrupted? Not only farm, but also my relationships with the npcs and activities that are coming from the expanded mod.

I hope asked that right.

[glacial briar]

Your progress will be fine. 🙂

You're thinking updating should be very complicated or fancy, but it really is as simple as deleting the old files and adding the new.

Smapi is a very smart program. It knows how to handle things and keep your saves safe.

After all, if updating caused saves to be deleted, don't you think we'd have a lot of eople in here complaining about it?

[dense trench]

Yes you're right hahaha

[glacial briar]

For your SVE-specific questions, I do suggest you join the SVE server. You can find a link on the SVE Nexus page.

[dense trench]

pardon me, it's my very first time using mods. Never tried it in other games except SDV

[dense trench]

nice

[glacial briar]

And if you would like to try something besides/instead of SVE, there are many recommendations here: https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Category:Recommendations

[lunar cipher]

(in particular, I'd recommend the Modular SVE list, as it will give a similar feeling to SVE while being much more customisable and compatible with other mods 😄)

[glacial briar]

(Airyn is not mentioning he compiled that list. 😛 )

( I of course recommend the Joja one 😄 )

[chrome cosmos]

(i highly recommend airyn’s rec lists for a heavily modded game along with cal’s joja mods :p)

[lunar cipher]

The Joja one is also very good! 😄 Cal's mods are the best way to make a Joja run fun & interesting

[glacial briar]

Starting to sound like the opening of Barkleys on Broadway here.

[lunar cipher]

Also like Cal mentioned, updating a mod by itself is just about always very safe & easy and won't break your save, but if you'd like to use a lot of mods and things breaking is a concern, I'd really recommend against using SVE. It has a very bad habit of breaking other mods when it updates because it changes things frequently and doesn't really watch out for what other mods are doing

[glacial briar]

One the other hand, if you just want to install one mod (plus like 10 dependency mods... 😄 ) SVE's a good choice.

Depends on what you want 🤷‍♀️

SVE's def worth playing once, just to see what the fuss is all about.

[dense trench]

most of the mods I installed are the ones that makes sdv more alive. Such as animations, npc dialogue expansion, part of the community, more interactions with pets and childrens XD

[loud stone]

I like sve because sophia give me a trinker,nice

[glacial briar]

Yes, trinkers are very nice.

[dense trench]

Thank you for your suggestions guys, I love you all

[glacial briar]

Have you got Please Remember My Birthday? Sounds right up your alley.

[dense trench]

what mod is that? XD

[glacial briar]

It's called Please Remember My Birthday. 😛

It's on Nexus.

[dense trench]

oh

Thank you very muuch

[lunar cipher]

If you like immersive mods, I'd like to suggest checking out Diverse Stardew Valley! 😄 (which in the interest of fairness is partly my mod, haha). It adds unique seasonal & festival outfits for all the characters, plus a lot of other neat features

[glacial briar]

(I'm too busy refreshing my latest mod stats to search anything)

[lunar cipher]

If you don't want to use the diversity edits of the characters, you can configure the mod to use the vanilla character designs

[glacial briar]

(I swear, if this inexplicably does better than the pumpkins...)

[lunar cipher]

Ah, it's on ModDrop though, not Nexus

[dense trench]

I actually prefer that way. I want to still feel concernedape's creation while enjoying the mods

[glacial briar]

I, on the otherhand, ike to pretend someone other than a young twenties white dude had a hand in the characters. 😄

[lunar cipher]

That's fair 😄 Although we tried to keep quite close to the vanilla artstyle and feel of the characters, so I'd recommend having a look through the readme since it has pictures of all the configuration options available. Each character can be configured separately, so it might be that you really like one or two of the diversity designs and decide to use those but keep the rest of the characters the same as vanilla

[dusky canyon]

watch out, someone might steal your ideas Airyn!

[glacial briar]

Anyway, everyone should go blue and install all my Joja mods. 😄

And also the one not-Joja mod.

[dusky canyon]

even when not going the joja route?

[glacial briar]

Of course!

[dusky canyon]

[glacial briar]

You know you want a clearance bin in your game. 😛

[lunar cipher]

Oh no, what a tragedy it would be if someone stole the idea of making their mod hypermodular and configurable! 😛

[glacial briar]

Hey, I'm very protective of my Joja CTs

[lunar cipher]

(not you, Cal, another someone )

[glacial briar]

I know, and I guard them preciously

....By promoting them every chance I get. Wait...

[lunar cipher]

Also I forgot to go check out your clearance bin mod! (laptop breaking kinda distracted me 😅) Gonna go check it out now

[glacial briar]

How dare you forget to check clearance!

That's where the best deals are! (If you have a membership, anyway. Otherwise you gotta finish the CC and be buddies with Shane for discounts)

If you're married, you can get eggs cheap!

[lunar cipher]

Ooh nice, marriage perks 😛

[glacial briar]

Heck yes, Shane knows which side of the bed is buttered

.....wait

Lol, I should add dialog about Shane getting offered the Autopetter for stock and turning it down in disgust

[lunar cipher]

Although there is a mod that gives Marnie a Special Order quest that grants the autopetter

[brazen hawk]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5450?tab=description

can I download this mod on a non fresh save?

[dense trench]

is there like a mod that expands help wanted and quests? I already reached perfection you see, but I still want to play sdv with a reason. XD

Oh nvm, found one

[lunar cipher]

You can, yep. However, might I interest you in another seasonal outfit mod with a lot more content than Slightly Cuter Aesthetic? 😄 Check out Diverse Stardew Valley on ModDrop - SCA is deliberately a slimmed-down mod, but DSV has multiple outfits per season which change depending on the weather, outfits for every festival rather than just 2, and a lot of neat features like swimwear, pyjamas, and spouses wearing the mermaid pendant on the portrait

You can choose to use either the vanilla character designs or the diversity edits of the characters

[brazen hawk]

Oh this sounds really cool. I will check it out

[dense trench]

is that on nexus btw?

or modrop?

[lunar cipher]

Moddrop, yep

[brazen hawk]

It's like nexus right?

[lunar cipher]

Pretty much! ModDrop's much newer than Nexus so it doesn't have as much content yet and the dev team are still ironing out kinks in the user interface, but they're a legit site and they're trying to do the right thing by mod authors

[brazen hawk]

Okey, thx for the info

[hexed terrace]

When ever I try to install SMAPI i get this error even when I enter the correct Steam directory for stardew valley

I am on Linux and followed the instructions

nevermind

I just couldnt have the

' at the end and the bgining

[brazen hawk]

Hi, so I checked out the mod and there are so many options haha. But I have a question: On the portraits the hairstyles of the npcs change with the seasonal outfits too. Is there an option to keep the original hairstyle so only the clothing changes?

[dire fractal]

Hey does anyone know a mod that allows you to plant normal trees on grass tiles ?

[worthy sundial]

This is probably a bit stupid-
I've been wanting to install some texture mods for quite a while. How do I do it? Youtube tutorials were a little confusing

[hexed terrace]

custom textures?

non moded?

[worthy sundial]

custom textures

[hexed terrace]

like diy

let me explain it

so

you find the file with the texture you want to replace

then you get the texture you want to change that file and you make sure it has the same name

then you delete th old one and put in the new one

I hope that makes sense

I haven't done it in a while

[worthy sundial]

it's similar to minecraft then!

[hexed terrace]

yes I believe so

[worthy sundial]

but i found this thing and i though it was really cute
how do i install this content patcher?

[hexed terrace]

does it give you a mod file or image files?

so if its

mod you need content patcher which is a mod

then you both of them in youre mod folder

does that help?

[worthy sundial]

yes! tysm!!

Thanks!

[steady pike]

hey does anyone mind sending me the original xnb file for the furniture in stardew valley -> content -> tilesheets please?

[jaunty rover]

lemme see if i can find them

[steady pike]

oh wait would another language be the same stuff right?

[jaunty rover]

wdym

[steady pike]

like if the file is xnbfurniture jp

jp= japanese i think

surely itd be the same file

but they seem to have the same file but for different languages

ja*

[jaunty rover]

i actually dont know, hmmm

interesting

[steady pike]

like this

they would just be the same stuff im guessing

[dusky canyon]

text is sometimes the language of that on the buildings

[steady pike]

ah i see

[boreal barn]

The yaml part might be different probably so it can matter other than the text written on sprites?

[steady pike]

oh yeah the only different seems to be joja shop sign and thats it for furniture

oh yeah you have a point

ill just be copying the png anyways

thanks for the inputs ^^

[dusky canyon]

[dire fractal]

can someone help me i dont see the button enter invite code

[obsidian spear]

Anyone know a mod that lets me place furniture anywhere?

@steady pike 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 :)

any way to change this?

Ok I found a solution uninstalled it

Hi hi y'all! Would anyone be willing to walk through with me in properly installing anime portraits and seasonal outfits/sprites stuff? I have a bunch of error messages and I need a second brain to help me figure out how to fix it all or which mods I can keep/remove so nothing's glitching or overwritten in my game. Dm me if you can help, thank you! <3

[native dragon]

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

[tired brook]

There's no need to use beta versions of most mods anymore. SMAPI can rewrite most non-beta versions so they work in both.

[mellow oak]

https://smapi.io/log/06e0dc251c794a3d9e29bc60ffd3a662
Here's my log link!
I know it's telling me to update some of the other mods I have installed, but the only reason I'm not doing that is because those updates are for the newest beta version of the game, and they're optional (as posted on nexus). If I really need to update something to fix portraits, I will, but if it's a mod that has nothing to do with that, I'm keeping as is, cause everything should be already updated! Thanks~

[hoary musk]

eXpanded Storage (Automate) 1.0.3-beta.3 got skipped because it needs that version apparently

[pine fjord]

Of course !!

[burnt dawn]

i redownloaded all of them but its still not working ...https://smapi.io/log/8b9a03eaee774804bf3510764feed7f7

[pine fjord]

Are you using vortex?

[tired brook]

@hoary musk Can you post your log?

[mellow oak]

I have no idea what that is, I'm sorry! I don't think I do?

[hoary musk]

I'm working on my GF's laptop cause I'm helping her out with modding. Give me a minute

[pine fjord]

Are you installing your mods manually or with a mod manager?

[mellow oak]

Manually. Is Vortex a mod manager I should use to make stuff easier?

[hoary musk]

https://smapi.io/log/d90767818b3a4068b7fe8dc901e41000

[topaz matrix]

no vortex

[mellow oak]

I have GenericModConfigMenu, so I can change the configs of mods ingame, but that's about it

[pine fjord]

Nope! Vortex can cause issues similar to what you're having, hence my asking. It appears you have a bunch of empty folders, which is why they're not working
You also seem to be installing xnb mods, which are a big no-no. Make sure you're only trying to install CP (content patcher) mods

[tired brook]

@hoary musk If you open the manifest.json file for eXpanded Storage (Automate), you can remove the version field on the Automate dependency. It should work with the previous version too.

[pine fjord]

!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).

[mellow oak]

It says they're empty folders, but when I go into the files, there's a bunch of png files that should replace the portraits of the game. I'm just not sure where they should exactly go or if I should be replacing any files for them. I'll look and remove any xnb stuff I find, though I tried my best not to install them in the first place

[pine fjord]

Can you walk me through how you installed the mods?

[hoary musk]

So delete the Dependencies section? Cause that's the only thing I see

[tired brook]

@hoary musk You should see this:

    {
      "UniqueID": "Pathoschild.Automate",
      "IsRequired": true,
      "MinimumVersion": "1.23.3-beta"
    },

Change that to:

    {
      "UniqueID": "Pathoschild.Automate",
      "IsRequired": true
    },

[hoary musk]

Yup I see it

[mellow oak]

I usually go to Nexus and find the mod I want and click Files, then Manual Download. It gives me the zipped folder, which I extract and then put the folder into my Mods folder
My path is as follows:
Program Files (x86) > Steam > steamapps > common > Stardew Valley > Mods > Mods (I have a subfolder named Mods because I wanted to separate the actual mods from the ConsoleCommands folder, etc.)

So far, I haven't replaced anything or deleted any folders for the base game, I've just placed everything in my mods folder and that seems to work
I just don't know how to organize the portraits so the game shows them correctly

I should mention that some of the portraits work, and some don't. Like for example Harvey's anime portrait shows but there's glitched glasses and a mustache in some parts of the day. I think there's also an alternate Leah portrait I have installed, but it doesn't show ingame so I'm not sure where that's supposed to go

[pine fjord]

I'd be weary of doing that! As far as I know, some mods don't do well with being nested extra layers within your mods folder

However, that aside

Could you go into your mods folders, go into the Anime portrait folder and take a screenshot of that?

[tall burrow]

Hey, I realize some of the mods I'm trying to install are still XNBs, granted I understand the risks that that entails, is there a way to circumvent Smapi and install them anyway? playin' on android

[upper ember]

As long as you don't have extremely long folder names, I've seen no issues with nesting folders, and I've nested as deep as three before without realizing it, and Smapi didn't care

[tall burrow]

https://smapi.io/log/f5b003a956504352aeb12a182f91e65b

[pine fjord]

You can't install xnb mods by just dragging them into your mods folders

you'd have to go into the game files, DELETE game files and replace them by XNB mods

it's why they are not recommended, as they're not compatible with other mods

[upper ember]

Depends on the mods, a lot of old XNB mods have been converted into CP, look on the Nexus page under the "posts" tab, and if there's a CP version, someone will likely have linked it

[pine fjord]

and can break and delete necessary stuff for your game

[upper ember]

Or you can make a CP version of it yourself

[pine fjord]

^ yep!

[tall burrow]

huh

CP stands for... content patchers?

[neat plaza]

yes

!unpack

[native dragon]

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!

[neat plaza]

!cp

[native dragon]

Content Patcher (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1915) is a mod which loads content packs to change the game's images and data without replacing XNB files. If you want to make mods using Content Patcher, start at https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Content_Patcher.

[tall burrow]

Okay I gotcha, I gotcha, so I need to figure out how to get Content Patcher working, because I have it installed but it keeps giving me an error about it being 'Not a SMAPI mod'

[pine fjord]

That's.... Not normal

It says Content Patcher isn't a SMAPI mod when you install it?

[upper ember]

Are you using the version from the official content patcher's Nexus page?

[tall burrow]

Yes, and I'm assuming the one or two other mods I'm trying to get going are not sticking because of that

[mellow oak]

Aye though I do have several folders that rely on each other for anime portraits
For example, [CP] Anime Beach Loader which has portraits for beach variants
and [CP] Portrait Anime Mods OhoDavi, which I believe is the main one
and separate folders like Mustache Harvey, for the Seasonal Villager Outfits portraits

Should I send screenshots of all the portrait pngs or just the folders?

[burnt dawn]

???

[tall burrow]

The one by Pathoschild?

[pine fjord]

Would you be comfortable of maybe taking this to dms for easier handling?

[mellow oak]

Yes of course!

[upper ember]

Yeah

[tall burrow]

Oh ho! I accidently downloaded the newest mod, rather than the CP thats specific to Android

alright lemme deep dive once more, sees if that fixes anything

[granite garnet]

Hi, I just had a quick simple question. If I wanted to use a cosmetic mod (to make my farm appear prettier,) do my friends I play with also need this mod or would it just appear "normal" for them? (I.e. similar to minecraft's 'texture packs')

[old spire]

correct

[upper ember]

It'd appear normal to them, like texturepacks

[granite garnet]

Awesome, thank you! ❤️

[mellow oak]

@pine fjord Everything works! Thank you so much for your help :D

[pine fjord]

HELLA

That was a mes sand a half 😂

so glad we got it

I updated Better Juminos a few minutes ago but it still says I have an update

Log: https://smapi.io/log/0a53b829d3544e25ae3aa344a3e62549

[old spire]

the manifest might just have the wrong version number

if you're sure you have the newest version it's safe to ignore the smapi alert and just let the mod author know there is a manifest issue

[hoary musk]

Ok, thank you! 🙂

[loud dirge]

https://smapi.io/log/8fa9b58b9fe840ec90d9c2d021fd7389 Trying to set up some content packs on Android. I think these mods cannot be updated because Android is old and thus I have to use Stardew 1.4 versions but I don't know how else I would fix these errors?

What even are these errors

[worthy moth]

Hey @hoary musk did you get XS working for you alright?

[hoary musk]

Yes I did

[worthy moth]

It's nice to know that it's working from some since the only posts that go up on the page are from those it doesn't work for

[hoary musk]

So far I haven't come across any issues but I have been playing. I just finished helping my gf with modding since she enjoys it too

[worthy moth]

Awesome, I'm glad it's working out so far

[hoary musk]

If I come across anything, I'll let you know 🙂

[worthy moth]

I know there are two issues that I need DGA to fix

[hoary musk]

What are those? Just curious

[worthy moth]

They aren't sold in the right store, everything is listed in the Adventurer's Guild, and the crafting recipe doesn't draw the whole object, it's cuts off the botom

[hoary musk]

I did notice the cut off for the mega storage mod last night.

[worthy moth]

As a matter of fact, I should probably submit a ticket just so they don't forget

[hoary musk]

Also, something did come to mind, I do have it configured for chests to have 6 rows instead 3 but it's only showing 3

[worthy moth]

It'll show as much as it needs depending on how big the chest is. Did you make the chest bigger as well?

So if you want it to use 6, you need the capacity to be at least 72

[hoary musk]

I'm primarily using Magic Chest which default to -1 but I still shows 3 for some reason

[brittle prawn]

hey anyone here have experience using wemod?

i've just discovered a small problem with my farming level recipes

[hoary musk]

Let hop into my save file. I did update XS a little bit ago

[hoary musk]

wemod?

[brittle prawn]

yes, wemod

its literally called wemod. its designed for steam and gog games

[hoary musk]

Ok, can you post a log?

!log

[native dragon]

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

[neat plaza]

is it like a
mod manager?

[brittle prawn]

let me show you a screenshot, i'm not one for using mods usually and this only one i've ever used

[hoary musk]

Is this what you're talking about?

https://www.wemod.com/cheats/stardew-valley-trainers

[brittle prawn]

yes that

my problem is i got my farming recipes all the way up to 8 but for some reason didnt get them at level 9 so i have no seed maker recipe and no iridium sprinkler recipe

[neat plaza]

probably easier to use cjb cheats menu

[brittle prawn]

and i'm level 10 farming

i dont know what that is

[hoary musk]

I also recommend CJB Cheats Menu as well

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4

[brittle prawn]

i dont see how wemod would stop me getting my recipes, i've never used the cheat for skills, only energy and health and fishing

and i got my 1-8 recipes just fine

[worthy moth]

CJB Cheats is recommended because it's supported by the creator of stardew modding

[upper ember]

The thing sounds sketchy. I'd just use Smapi and normal mods, as CA has been working directly with the maker of Smapi so.. you know it's safe

[brittle prawn]

ok cool...but..doesnt help me figure out why i didnt get my level 9 recipes

i've used wemod on a number of other games without issue. never used any other mod manager

could there be any other reason i didnt get my recipes?

[upper ember]

Well, since we've never heard of it before, I don't think we can really help?

[worthy moth]

Yeah, no one here can vouch for whatever that thing does, whereas anyone can see exactly what CJB Cheats is doing. You'll get the same cheats, but by an official mod that has been subject to more scrutiny by the modding community.

[brittle prawn]

i was only told to come here coz i'm using it, but i honestly dont think its the problem, or i'd never have gotten any of my other recipes

[worthy moth]

It sounds like you need to reach out to the WeMod community since that's not a tool that we support

[brittle prawn]

and you can't give me any suggestions of any other reason i may not have gotten my recipes?

[worthy moth]

Unfortunately not, I think I've given you the best recommendation I know of

[brittle prawn]

its literally just those 2 i didnt get

yeah i appreciate it.

[hoary musk]

Everytime I create a Magic Chest and set it down, it reverts back to a normal chest

[brittle prawn]

like i said i dont think the mod is the issue or i wouldnt have gotten recipes from levels 1-8

[upper ember]

Only people who know of and use it would be able to identify issues regarding it and how to fix it. This is the first time I've even heard of Wemod

[worthy moth]

Oh shoot, someone else reported that too earlier

[hoary musk]

Ok, at least I'm not the only that runs into that issue

[worthy moth]

Do you have LookupAnything installed?

Any chance I can get a screen grab from you for something?

Just wanna check if it's storing modData on the Magic Chest or not

[hoary musk]

Yes I do, give a minute! 🙂

[worthy moth]

Oh I think I may know the problem already. I updated all the mods last night except for XSLite.

That's what I get for modding at 2am

Here, I'll give you the next beta update and you can check if that fixes it

[hoary musk]

Uh... Magic Chest is not showing up in Lookup Anything, I don't think any of the chest for Mega Chests are showing up

Also, how do I get to the BGA Store again?

[worthy moth]

Just type the command dga_store

Here's an unreleased update to XSLite, can you see if this fixes it?

[hoary musk]

I did and it didn't work

[hoary musk]

Dah... Malwarebytes flagged it

[worthy moth]

Uhh, if dga_store isn't working, I might need a log to see what's wrong

Okay, I guess I can just release the mod and you can download it from nexus, that's weird

[hoary musk]

Ok, I'll give you a new log

https://smapi.io/log/7ef7ca540d4540c287df242057639adc

[worthy moth]

Oh you're typing bga_store not dga_store

[hoary musk]

Whoops! That makes sense

[cursive cipher]

If I download ridgeside village mod and find it slows my computer down too much can I just delete it

[worthy moth]

Okay, when I run the mod on my computer it's still working, so hopefully that update fixes it for you too

[cursive cipher]

I have a 1 yr old Lenovo yoga not a gaming pc and SVE with a few other mods has lag occasionally

[hoary musk]

What's the specs are your computer?

[worthy moth]

The safe way to delete an expansion mod is to make sure you're not carrying any items they add I think

[cursive cipher]

So idk how adding ridgeside would affect it

How do I find specs

[worthy moth]

Thing is the game keeps every location/NPC in memory, so the more you add the more it has to do

[hoary musk]

In Windows, go to Settings > System >About

[upper ember]

SVE is also massive in terms of average Stardew mods, so it and adding other larger mods is going to make load times longer and have the potential for more lag

[cursive cipher]

I mean I guess I can copy my save and have a backup one in case it runs too slowly.

You can make stardew 64 but right

[hoary musk]

What type of Hard Drive is it? SSD or HDD?

[cursive cipher]

SSD

[worthy moth]

To be honest a lot of times mods can just be deleted, but I'd be worried about removing JA mods mid-game since that seems to cause the most issues

[upper ember]

There's unofficial 64bit right now, but an official 64bit is coming out soon ( It's in beta but apparently has good stability )

[cursive cipher]

Just heard about ridgeside and don’t want to delete my save only if I’ve been playing for a few days

[lunar cipher]

Sorry for the late reply! 😅 It's not possible, sorry - the hairstyles change to match the appropriate occasion. Some of them will be getting a revamp soon, but if you know your way around an art program, you're welcome to edit the hairstyles for personal use only.

[worthy moth]

The beta is about as stable as the current release version of the game, but there's no guarantee that a game you start now will still work by the time it releases if anything major is changed

But as far as mod compatibility, most mods still work on the beta or have been updated already for it

[brittle prawn]

can you send me that link again for cfb please? i'll go ahead and install and use that for SDV

wemod discord are not nice people

[hoary musk]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4

There you go!

[worthy moth]

@hoary musk Are you able to test out the updated XSLite? Or would you need it to be uploaded to Nexus first?

[hoary musk]

Well since Malwarebytes flagged it, I'd recommend uploading it to Nexus

[worthy moth]

Sure, I'll go ahead and do that, hopefully it works. Just hate having to post updates more than once a day.

[hoary musk]

That's fair

[brittle prawn]

thank you

[rocky solstice]

hey everyone is there a mod for enemy health bars while zoomed out? im currently using https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/193/ but its not lined up to the enemies

[worthy moth]

It'd have to be one created in the past few months since separate zoom levels is what broke a bunch of ui mods. Maybe try this one out https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8329

[vague cove]

Does anyone know what the ??? item is?

[shell jackal]

I think it's for "any type of fruit"

[rocky solstice]

will do, cheers!

[vague cove]

Do you know how i can fix it?

[shell jackal]

Can change the recipe. But you just need any fruit for the recipe and it will work. Salmonberry, apple, spice berry, etc. Any type will work

[brittle prawn]

ok going to attempt to install that mod, since wemod people are saying it can't be wemod and you guys dont think its the game

either way i can't make those 2 items

[vague cove]

Should I change the recipe in the config.json? If so what should i put in

[worthy moth]

If there are any issues in your game, you can try posting your log here, and someone can see if there are any problems in it

!log

[native dragon]

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

[brittle prawn]

how do i do that?

[granite garnet]

thank you guys for your help!! This is so much easier for my hyper-sensitive eyes to deal with <3!!

[worthy moth]

Follow the link, there are instructions

[shell jackal]

No it'd be the object.json for that item

[brittle prawn]

ok followed instructions it couldnt find an error log file

[worthy moth]

Are you on PC?

[brittle prawn]

yah

[vague cove]

Ok gotcha. What object should I change?

[brittle prawn]

i followed instructions exactly

[worthy moth]

So you don't have the folder at all? Or the folder is empty?

[brittle prawn]

it said it couldnt find it. it might be installed in a differnet location i guess

i'll go look

[worthy moth]

Oh wait, I guess the first question is, are you running modded SDV? Don't know if that was asked at all

[brittle prawn]

no i'm not

the mod manager i'm using is external

[shell jackal]

Just delete the one that has -79 in it. That whole bit. Would you like me to send you the edited file instead?

[worthy moth]

Okay yeah, then you may not have that file since it's only if you're using regular Stardew Modding API (SMAPI)

[brittle prawn]

i could load SDV without that manager and run the game as if i'd never used mods

[brazen hawk]

Ok, ty for the answer

[worthy moth]

Yeah, in that case nothing is affecting your game except for the mod manager you're using

[vague cove]

Sure. DM it to me. Thank you so much!

[worthy moth]

Don't know why anyone there would think Stardew mods would be the reason if you're not even running modded...

[brittle prawn]

which mod on nexus specifically? stardew valley expanded?

[worthy moth]

https://tenor.com/view/jackie-chan-meme-what-confused-huh-gif-5480485

[worthy sundial]

Aesthetic visual mod suggestions?

[hoary musk]

@worthy moth downloaded the update and the Magic Chest still reverts to a normal chest. When I'm holding its a Magic Chest but as soon as I set it down that's when it reverts

[brittle prawn]

ok quick expalnation. wemod is a mod app you load up. then you load the game you want to use it on. once game is loaded, you hit play on the app.

i've used it for any number of steam and gog games and never had any issues

[worthy moth]

But it's not like launching the game regular or using SMAPI, it does it's own thing that no one here can explain

[brittle prawn]

yah essentially

hence my personal opinion thats its mot wemod causing the problem.

its a game thing not a mod thing

[worthy moth]

And they think a program that you don't even have installed is the reason instead of the thing you're using differently

[warm bear]

Does anyone know a good mod for recolouring machines (kegs, seedmakers, etc)

[brittle prawn]

yah i was told because you guys have never heard of wemod, i can't be helped

[shell jackal]

I like Gwen's

[brittle prawn]

but regardless of how i use a mod, if the mod was at fault it wouldnt just randomly affect 2 level recipes and no others

it would be all or nothing

[worthy moth]

Not true at all

[brittle prawn]

i literally didnt get just my level 9 farming recipes

[worthy moth]

There could be a million reasons it only affects certain levels, but we couldn't know unless anyone here could dig into the source code of WeMod and see what it's doing exactly

[brittle prawn]

none of what i used affected my levels, i earned them the hard way

[worthy moth]

I'm just saying WeMod changes the game, it does something to enable it's cheats

[brittle prawn]

regardless..i'll switch to using cfb if i can figure it out

[worthy moth]

What that is exactly, no one here can explain, but it's not just running the game, it's affecting it

[brittle prawn]

i can work my way around the 2 missing recipes

[worthy moth]

The game's code can be delicate at times, it's really easy for things to break it. And the only thing you're doing to the game at this point is running it through WeMod.

[brittle prawn]

on the nexus web site which mods should i look at for energy and health, and fishing help?

[worthy moth]

CJB Cheats does all of that except for Fishing

There are a couple fishing mods though

[brittle prawn]

cfbcheats is the mod name?

[worthy moth]

CJB Cheats Menu, you got linked it 2-3 times earlier here

[shell jackal]

CJB does have fishing stuff. Instant catch, instant bite, treasure all the time...

[brittle prawn]

cjb..jeez, sorry

[worthy moth]

Oh, I stand corrected, some just scale the difficulty down

[granite garnet]

im currently using gwen's for my farm buildings, I can dm you the pic?

[brittle prawn]

yeah it sent to my nexus to regiter and i got lost in the login process. i'll try again

[worthy moth]

You can tell a lot of people don't like the fishing minigame because there have been like 8 different mods that try to make it easier

[upper ember]

@river rapids The debugging thingy doesn't work, it doesn't register it as a command

[brittle prawn]

my mouse isnt very sensitive and i have to mash it sometimes to get a response. not ideal for the minigame

[worthy moth]

I used to play with Joys of Efficiency which doesn't change the difficulty, but just plays the game for you

[worthy sundial]

Yes, please!

[shell jackal]

Wayback Pelican Town is another mod Gwen made that changes the town. I love it

[worthy moth]

I'll keep working on it, oh btw you don't need Convenient Chests anymore if you have XSPlus installed. I added those features.

[hoary musk]

Ah ok! Cool

[main ingot]

[hoary musk]

If you like me to test things out, let me know

[worthy moth]

I have a few usual suspects I'm going to test, like the big framework mods

Something here is preventing XS from working

[hoary musk]

Since I know what is in the folders for XSLite, XSPlus, and XSAutomate, I can ignore MalwareBytes

[brittle prawn]

erf i have no idea how to locate my stardew valley folder

[worthy moth]

You install through Steam? Or something else?

[brittle prawn]

yeah through steam

[worthy moth]

You can right-click in steam, Manage, browse local files

[brittle prawn]

huh...ok thanks. never knew that

[worthy moth]

@hoary musk you're just cheating it in with dga_store and placing them, right? I wanna make sure I'm not missing steps to try to reproduce the issue.

[hoary musk]

First I craft them and set it down, then go to DGA_Store and set them down. Does the same thing each time

[worthy moth]

Do you think you could Zip+DM me a copy of your mods folder so I can test everything out at once?

[hoary musk]

Sure give me a minute

[brittle prawn]

ok lets see if this works

[hoary musk]

Um... I have over 100mb since I have SVE and Ridgeside Village and few other mods

[worthy moth]

You can keep out those big ones

Hopefully those aren't causing the problem

[brittle prawn]

ok well followed the steps but the mod menu isnt opening

[hoary musk]

Ok Give me minute

[worthy moth]

Sure, no rush. Thank you for helping

[worthy sundial]

You guys recommend "toddler like parents" or "custom baby and children"?

[worthy moth]

I'm not doing anything different here right?

[hoary musk]

Nope, nothing different

I'm almost done

[worthy moth]

You've got SMAPI installed now?

!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

[hoary fulcrum]

one of my mods is doing something weird

[brittle prawn]

yeah i got it installed, followed the instructions on the cjb link. but no menu shows up when I press P ingame

[worthy moth]

Now you should have a log

!log

[native dragon]

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

[brittle prawn]

so, clearly i've done something wrong

[worthy moth]

And it'll say if the mod is loaded correctly

[brittle prawn]

https://smapi.io/log/3240d878d9164382a48fdc39ed5089a4

[worthy moth]

Okay it looks like CJB Cheats Menu isn't unzipped into your Mods folder

There should be a folder under Mods\CJBCheatsMenu\

[brittle prawn]

when i tried unzipping it, there was no mods folder so i created a new folder in the exact location
