[grave oak]

I think i know what's up

Are u extracting with "extract to NAME-HERE"?

Or are you using the "extract here" cuz it matters a bit

[dull locust]

extract here

[grave oak]

then idk lol

[trail cipher]

does anyone use the look up anything mod on mac that knows how to use it? it says to press F4 but that key takes me out of the game lol

[grave oak]

mine is set to F1 idk

Have u tried that?

[trail cipher]

nope I’ll try it

[hollow blaze]

yea the download for the mod said f1

[sick dawn]

Any idea why the SMAPI terminal doesn't open when I run Stardew Valley on fedora (linux)?

[robust bison]

are you opening SDV or SMAPI?

[sick dawn]

SMAPI

Opening through steam

[modern gorge]

do i need to worry at all about load order with moddrop?

[dire fractal]

What's Zuzu Town?

[warm grove]

so... even though i am using a lot of mods it seems like the game lags way worse on 1.5.5 :/

[naive drum]

Stardew valley mods set their own load order in their manifests, you dont have to worry about ot

[modern gorge]

cool, thanks

[alpine ginkgo]

Do you mean Downtown Zuzu? https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8587

[dire fractal]

Yeah I think. I saw another one called Zuzu - SDVE

[alpine ginkgo]

Oh, that's a part of Stardew Valley Expanded, I think?

[dire fractal]

Yeah maybe it is. Lol. Gets confusing at times

[warm grove]

its extremely jittery too

then again its using like NONE of my pc resources

in comparison to even firefox with no toolbars...

[sour wren]

So probably going to be moving over to the 1.5.5 beta, is there anything I have to worry about when switching over from the unofficial 64bit mode?

[dire fractal]

If I delete a mod from my files could it break my game?

[naive drum]

Which mod?

Smapis good at handling mod removal but a few kinds if mods can cause issues

[dull locust]

does anyone have the mod for npc alune??

[bold heath]

anyone got texture mod recommendation thats compat with sdve?

[warm grove]

mods that add npcs are especially problematic

[dull locust]

oh?? how so??

[dire fractal]

Multiple spouse/custom spouse patio (the latter was required for the first one)

[naive drum]

You'd have to divorce your extra spouses first

Then uninstall multiple spouses

[dire fractal]

Aight

K

[hoary bane]

Hello, can someone please help with this log?
https://smapi.io/log/123e149249b7437d871fd0c54dd91ff4

[naive drum]

For uninstalling? Make sure they're not your spouse and that you launch the game with smapi for the first in game day after uninstalling them. Both npcs and locations put data in the save file that SMAPI can remove but the vanilla game cant handle

[hoary bane]

For the NPC alune, I'm not sure why it says the portraits is empty when it isn't

[bold heath]

https://smapi.io/log/b6d421d41e03401ea382568c3e5ee8d6 sdve problems, any idea why? something about victors room

[visual socket]

You're missing a couple of dependencies for SDVE.

[bold heath]

i got all of it im confused

[hoary bane]

Stardew Valley Expanded Custom Music 1.13.11 because it requires mods which aren't installed (Platonymous.CustomMusic)

[visual socket]

You're missing Custom Music and Custom NPC Fixes.

[bold heath]

ahhhh thank you, it wasnt on the requirement text so i didnt have that

thanks

[sonic marsh]

i installed x64 unofficial version, is there anyway i can change the game folder location??

i downloaded through steam itself, so its inside "depots" folder

HERE WE GO AGAIN

download a ton of mods to match the requirements of each other

[hoary bane]

Can someone help with this log please?
https://smapi.io/log/123e149249b7437d871fd0c54dd91ff4

[visual socket]

Try navigating to the path outlined in the error.

[hoary bane]

@dull locust

[visual socket]

I noticed it's installed through steam. Did you try verifying the integrity of the files?

[hoary bane]

How do you verify?

[visual socket]

https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/0C48-FCBD-DA71-93EB

[hoary bane]

Thank you

[visual socket]

np

[hoary bane]

They're saying the error log is still there even after verifying

[visual socket]

Hm.

[dire fractal]

Worst nightmare.

[sonic marsh]

one more thing, in this x64 version, the game is always on the front

i can't alt tab

even when is loading, i cant do anything else

[sacred marten]

Anyone know of recipes mod that don’t get affected by the JA shuffle?

[hoary bane]

Can someone help with this log please?
https://smapi.io/log/123e149249b7437d871fd0c54dd91ff4

[dull locust]

also it says Alune's folder is full and tis not

[dire fractal]

First of all, Alune's English is a folder without anything in it. It's not a mod.

Actually, it may have something in it but the sub-folder of that mod folder may not.

[hoary bane]

It is a full folder

For CP, TMX, it's all inside

[dire fractal]

AlternativePortraits

Check AlternativePortraits

[hoary bane]

Do they have to drag it out into the mods folder itself?

There is sprites

[dire fractal]

According to the SMAPI log, there is nothing in AlternativePortraits.

[sonic marsh]

I GIVE UP GUYS!!!!!

i installed all the mods with its correct versions

now i cant get pass "load" screen

[hoary bane]

Which is what makes it weird. Should they instead drag out the folders firectly into the mods?

[sonic marsh]

cant see my saved games

[dire fractal]

Folders inside folders in regards to mods should be okay but you could try moving all folders inside Alune's English to the Mods folder.

[sonic marsh]

i'll wait until the mods i want get updated to 1.5.5

[hoary bane]

Alright, then how about the first error?

[dire fractal]

That's your problem then.

[hoary bane]

The uhm

Game.Initialize() caught exception initializing XACT:
DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path

[dire fractal]

If Mods aren't up to date, they ain't gonna work.

[hoary bane]

This is the path
C:\WINDOWS\System32\Content\XACT\FarmerSounds.xgs

[hoary bane]

We tried to follow the path, and they couldn't find the content folders and beyond

I checked on mine too, and I only got up until the System 32 but I don't have that error log

[sonic marsh]

i know thats why i'm waiting

[hoary bane]

🤔

[dire fractal]

Have you got the latest SMAPI version installed?

[sonic marsh]

its just a couple

[hoary bane]

I'm pretty sure they do, and it's also not saying that Smapi can be updated in their log

[dire fractal]

Honestly, I've never seen that first issue before.

[hoary bane]

;-;

I saw a similar issue here
https://github.com/Pathoschild/SMAPI/issues/141

[dire fractal]

There'll probably be an easy fix though lol

[hoary bane]

But it seems that their problem is that their drive was a (D:) and not a (C:)

But theirs is (C:), so I don't see the problem-

[dire fractal]

Is yours at a D:?

[hoary bane]

Theirs is at a (C:), mine is also the same

[dire fractal]

Ah

Could be a bug maybe?

[hoary bane]

On what?

[dire fractal]

You installed the wrong version of content patcher. If you're using the Linux 64bit version you need the version of Content Patcher that works with Smapi 3.12.5

[sonic marsh]

i got pass this, ive been playing modded for some time

my problem is not that anymore

I got the game to launch

i just cant load my saved games

[hoary bane]

Can someone help with this log please?
https://smapi.io/log/123e149249b7437d871fd0c54dd91ff4

Is there a way to change it's directory? It's trying to look for the FarmerSounds.xgs

But it's not in the path it's trying to take

Which is
C:\WINDOWS\System32\Content\XACT\FarmerSounds.xgs
I found the FarmerSounds.xgs at
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Content\XACT

[dire fractal]

Did you take a look at the troubleshooting guide for corrupted savegames?

[sonic marsh]

its not that either, its not that my game is not loading, when i click "LOAD" on menu screen my game freezes

when i check task manager, the game is not using 50.000K of ram, when the game is running is using 3GB

[dire fractal]

My 64bit version also freezes but it works after I leave it alone for a bit.

[sonic marsh]

i'll try leaving for LONGER

but like i said before, the game is "kidnapping" my screen

i cant see other apps when game is running

it would be nice to do something else while i wait

[dire fractal]

I never had that issue, so I can't help with that.

[sonic marsh]

only happens when game is "not responding"

during launch or searching for saves, during menu works fine

i'll go to bed soon because i have to work in a few hours, i'll launch the game and when i wake up i see if its working

it gave me back control after some time and eventually the game loaded, thanks for the help

sorry for being impatient and asking before waiting

[sacred marten]

Is there a way to save a corrupt file?

[clear eagle]

PyTK doesn't seem to work with latest version of SMAPI. I thought it was PyTK so I reverted back to old version but still the errot is there. Any fixes?

Oh, I'm talking about 1.5.4 btw

https://smapi.io/log/57ef2371356746dbaa18eca7395d425c here's log file

[crude monolith]

Hey! I recently opened SDV after a hiatus, not before updating SMAPI, Pytk, and Expanded Preconditions. However, I stumbled across a problem- once I interacted with my dresser, nothing happened but I started to lag while walking in the house and couldn't interact with the bed. Here's the SMAPI error log: https://smapi.io/log/980dad493ac64960bd4c724d8ff62b88

I think this is a mod issue, hence why I came here. May I know which mod caused it, and what I can do to rectify the problem? Thanks!

[outer turret]

have you removed any clothing mods?

[crude monolith]

No, I don't think so- the only mod I removed was Mi's and Magimatica's Country Furniture

[zealous wing]

Whats the mod called that adds like a whole new village?

[crude monolith]

stardew valley expanded?

[clear eagle]

There's no errors from mods in your report. Only from game. Try verifying cache just in case something went wrong?

[zealous wing]

Whats the mod called that adds like a whole new village?

[crude monolith]

Ah, thanks. How do I do that again? 😅 Sorry, it's been a while

[clear eagle]

Ridgeside Village?

[clear eagle]

In steam library, right click on your game and go to properties, there's an option there. I just don't remember which tab it is.

[zealous wing]

Thats the one is it good?

[crude monolith]

Alright, thank you!

[clear eagle]

I don't know. I only play vanilla map. But it is worth checking.

[ionic harbor]

interesting find

smapi log
update for mods
Better Fruit Trees 1.0.1: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3947

I copied the link from the log, opened it in a new tab and got to the download off:
Seasonal Japanese Buildings

which indeed had an update XD
not really sure why smapi gives the wrong name, guess it is a faulty manifest XD

Can someone look a my friend log plz? We’re trying to figure out why we crash when trying to save to the next in game day.

https://smapi.io/log/340fe0d17fd24a51a33bed80a50a9f78

[bold heath]

any idea why my game keep crashing whenever i buy crabpots from willy? https://smapi.io/log/f95e20e2ac4d443a9e27f8313b993072

the only red message is from bettersprinklers which ive been ignoring

[ionic harbor]

I dont fully know, but till someone mor eknowledgeable shows up I guess i could suggest looking if you have a mod related to this, maybe it has been set up wrong?

[hoary bane]

I was looking over them when they were extracting the mods and stuff, so far I don't think I saw anything out of place-

I'll double check on them once they come back, but I've never seen this smapi error before-

[ionic harbor]

I keep seeing issues with something called IndoorPot

Also, I believe you might have installed SVE wrongly when it comes to olivia's folders

same with that flashshifter

I would advice you to reconfirm the instal steps stated in sve and check this indoorpot, maybe remove it and see if the issue continues

[sacred marten]

@ionic harbor ok we will try it thanks

[ionic harbor]

I also see ppja forage pack is not working cause it is missing required mods to run

beyond that I too only see the srpinklers
i agree that it does not sound like something that would react to the crabpots, but just to confirm i would suggest fixing it regardless, maybe there is some kind of underlaying code that is connecting them?

[bold heath]

yeah thats from minerva bundle change, im not using the ppja so it should be safe 2 ignore

and the red message is probably issue with line sprinklers and better sprinkler, guess i have to choose 1 of them

[dire fractal]

Moved to here

Hi everyone.

So, I uninstalled SDV from Steam a while ago due to no interest in playing it anymore. However, I've decided to come back to it as it is a very light-hearted game that is more appropriate for me than other more intense and hostile games.

So, SMAPI was still enabled. I've now disabled SMAPI, downloaded the latest edition and reinstalled SMAPI.

I've gone to my SDV folder and in it is a Mods sub-folder, Contents, and Contents (Unpacked) folder. I saved the SMAPI into the SDV folder.

Have I done everything correctly? 🙂

[bold heath]

i think smapi shouldnt be inside any mod folder

[chrome cosmos]

you can keep SMAPI anywhere that isnt the Mods folder, so having it in your SDV folder is okay. i personally keep it in there or on my desktop sometimes

[dire fractal]

I think SMAPI is outside of the mods folder but there are three 'mods' in there that I don't know if they should be.

Save Backup, Error Handler, and Console Commands.

Should they be in the mods folder?

[chrome cosmos]

they should be yes, these come bundled with SMAPI :)

[dire fractal]

Ah sweet. Cheers! 🙂

[fluid crest]

There needs to be a mod that causes Pam to crash the bus if you give her too much booze and then try to ride the bus to the desert...

[clear eagle]

Are you using steam version? Try validating cache.

[sterile glacier]

I need to ask something... If I play with someone who doesn't have the same mods installed, will it affect anything?

[hoary bane]

They have already tried that and verified the game files, and yes it's in steam

[clear eagle]

Yes, it affect alot.

[sterile glacier]

Or should I uninstall my mods first and install again when playing in my saves?

[sterile glacier]

F

[hoary bane]

I think it depends on what mods you have installed

[clear eagle]

Both of you should be using same mods

Except texture changes, I guess?

[sterile glacier]

Oh

I just have a few texture changes and UI info 🤔

[hoary bane]

That should work fine

[sterile glacier]

But I'm going to remove all mods from my mods folder anyways, I hope smapi doesn't affect anything...

[hoary bane]

Oh- that's going to be a hassle, but you can just instead run the game vanilla rather than having smapi run it

[clear eagle]

Can you test if you're crashing even if you're playing w/o SMAPI?

[sterile glacier]

Oh right

[brazen hawk]

If you put a " . " infront of your Mods folder Smapi wont load them btw

[hoary bane]

I will ask them, but I'm pretty sure their vanilla game would be fine

[sterile glacier]

What should I do to get the game back to vanilla without having to uninstall the mods then? 🤔

[hoary bane]

You can change the launch options in steam under "Properties"

If you want vanilla, just delete your launch pathing so it's empty

[brazen hawk]

You mean without smapi too? Because afaik it doesnt matter in multiplayer

[sterile glacier]

No matter which way it is, I just don't want it to have some problems

[sterile glacier]

Oh okay, im going to do that

Thank you yall sm!

[steady python]

So I've been using Stardew Valley Reimagined 2 but it always messes up and makes the special order board invisible. Has anyone else had this issue, and is there a better map rework mod I could use?

[clear eagle]

Reimagined 2 would not work for 1.5

Try vibrant pastoral

Or daisyniko

[clear eagle]

And about that issue, I found out that PlatoTK was the problem. So I removed it and fortunately I only use 1 mod that depends on it.

Weird though, they used to work together before. Maybe because it's not update for Harmony?

[steady python]

Also, how do I edit config files?

[clear eagle]

Notepad++

[brazen hawk]

Steam> properties>local files>mods>open the mod

[clear eagle]

or use general mod config menu, most mods support it.

[pallid lance]

Good Day!

Do any of these mods affect Harvey's Eyeglasses? In my game he hasn't had his glasses for over 4 real in life months.

https://smapi.io/log/3db7ba2e89664b07b1425dc91a30aecb

[clear eagle]

Seasonal Villager Outfits maybe

You can edit the config file to see if glasses are disabled.

[pallid lance]

It's not there. I tried several times. 😦

[clear eagle]

Can I know what's in the config file? I haven't used SVO since they removed it.

[keen crow]

On the portrait or the sprite?

[pallid lance]

On the portrait

[keen crow]

Which portrait are you using? I can see you've got Portraiture

[minor cloud]

Have i done this correctly?

[keen crow]

Unzip the zips

[pallid lance]

Yes

[minor cloud]

It tells me to replace a bunch files should i just say yes to all

[keen crow]

It shouldn't, as you haven't got those mods unzipped. What files is it trying to overwrite?

[pallid lance]

I've been using SVO for a year I believe and I suddenly had this problem over 4 months ago. I thought that maybe the mod just has a bug and just has to be updated, but about 1-2 updates later no changes were seen.

[minor cloud]

lemme try it again

[minor cloud]

nvm the one time i ask for help it didnt replace any files thanks it works now

[keen crow]

Can you take a screenshot of what your Harvey portrait looks like please?

[pallid lance]

Will do!

[clear eagle]

The only mod that was modifying Harvey portrait so far in your log is SVO.

[keen crow]

They also have Portraiture, so they might just be using a portrait from there for Harvey without knowing

In which case, they can talk to Harvey and press the P until it circles back to the vanilla folder

[clear eagle]

Yeah, I was about to say that

[keen crow]

Harvey from Seasonal should look something like this

[minor cloud]

When using the npcmaplocations mod it shows some npc twice their location and their shop is there a way to fix to this?

[keen crow]

Are you using UI Info Suite?

[minor cloud]

yeah

[pallid lance]

I'm using the vanilla. Slr btw. I restarted the game.

[static crane]

is there a way to see if my mods needs updating without needing to start the game?

[keen crow]

They also put character locations up, you can disable them in the config

[clear eagle]

Disable NPC location in UI info suite

[minor cloud]

o ok

how do i access the config?

[keen crow]

That's the overlay active. Not what Harvey is on, go talk to him and press your Q button as you've changed the hotkey

[pallid lance]

I'll try. The game is still booting up.

[keen crow]

Either by using the Generic Mod Config Menu mod or by opening the config file from the folder. It's a text file, so any text program can open it for you to edit

[minor cloud]

dam

can u tell me what to edit?

[worn crown]

Heya, I'm new here, got in this discord thanks to a comment that said that Android lag can be fixed by changing a config file in FarmTypeManager, and that someone here posted this solution.
Does anybody play on android? I can't find the config file the guy was talking about

[keen crow]

Ah, wait. Sorry. In game, open your inventory. You should have a tab right at the end that looks like a hammer? That's the in game config for UI Info Suite

[minor cloud]

just existed the game 1 sec

[static crane]

is there a way to see if my mods needs updating without needing to start the game?

[keen crow]

No

Not unless you go onto the nexus for each of them

[clear eagle]

That depends, what mods are you using FTM for?

[keen crow]

You can also just open the game briefly, until the updating section loads on the log and then close it so you can open that on smapi and see what needs updating

[minor cloud]

im there which setting do i uncheck?

[pallid lance]

I switched through my portrait mods to no avail.

[worn crown]

SVE / ImmersiveFarmRemastered2

[keen crow]

Whatever means npc locations. I'm not in my game so I can't remember exactly

[pallid lance]

Also I just realized that his sprite also has no glasses.

[minor cloud]

i cant find .-. please go into the game if u can

[keen crow]

Take a screenshot. My game takes half an hour to load and then another half an hour to load into the save

[pallid lance]

😦

[minor cloud]

k

[keen crow]

Whats the config options for Harvey look like?

[clear eagle]

maybe reducing minimumspawnperday and maximumspawnperday might work.

[minor cloud]

what the button for a screenshot ._.

[pallid lance]

I'm not sure what does config options for harvey mean.

[keen crow]

What system are you?

[pallid lance]

How can I check that out?

[minor cloud]

windows and i found it lol still need to know how to take a screenshot tho please

[pallid lance]

Also, I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the base game and smapi to no avail.

[clear eagle]

Post your config.json inside SVO folder here

[keen crow]

If it's windows 10, press the windows key + shift + s altogether

[pallid lance]

Thank you. Will do.

[keen crow]

Ah I see, there's no options for Harvey's glasses for some reason... Sadly, without the page I can't tell what they looked like before and such

[pallid lance]

What do you mean by page?

[keen crow]

The nexus page

[pallid lance]

He never had an option for glasses. 😦

[keen crow]

I use https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5450 which is a similar look, where Harvey has his glasses as well. So it'll either be the case that you'll just have a glassless Harvey, or find a different mod to replace them

[pallid lance]

Ah yes about the page, what happened to that?

[keen crow]

Para took it down as they're not modding anymore. It might be back, it might not be

[pallid lance]

Ever since I've had the issue the page has been gone.

Ah. Thank you!

[clear eagle]

Or use Diverse Stardew Valley

[worn crown]

This is what I found:

message:EvilOfGods mentions a fix for SVE on the discord so I'm posting it here.
The main cause of lag is FarmTypeManager config file. {
"EnableConsoleCommands": true,
"EnableContentPacks": true,
"EnableContentPackFileChanges": true,
"EnableTraceLogMessages": true,
"MonsterLimitPerLocation": null
}

1.1`` Farm Type Manager mod, standard config for MonsterLimitPerLocation is null, this caused lag for Android, change null to number to limit it, 0 is minimum, over 600 can cause lag, change to 10 should be ok.

[clear eagle]

Literally the same

[worn crown]

But I cannot find that Monsterlimiterperlocation config

[keen crow]

Ah yes, that too. The Diverse mod is beautiful

https://www.moddrop.com/stardew-valley/mods/580603-diverse-stardew-valley-dsv-seasonal

[clear eagle]

Um, it's in Farm Type Manager folder.

You can open that with Quick Edit

but if you wish, I can edit that.

[worn crown]

Thing is I cannot find the setting that guy's talking about

in the config file of ftm

[keen crow]

Config file should look like this for Farm Type Manager

[pallid lance]

@keen crow I opened my folder and realized that both of his overlays are here but aren't showing up in the game itself. (Moustache and Glasses)

[keen crow]

Ah I see, that's odd

[pallid lance]

It's just using his base character portrait and sprite. Without his glasses and moustache.

[clear eagle]

Maybe my guess is Content Patcher failed to overlay

I dunno xD

[pallid lance]

Ahh alright! I'll try to reinstall that then. Thank you!

[worn crown]

is that file called ConfigEditor ? 'cause my FTM folder has ConfigEditor.html, FarmTypeManager.dll, FarmTypeManager.pdb , manifest.json
And none of those seem to have the content you sent

[clear eagle]

No.

[worn crown]

maybe I downloaded a wrong version?

[clear eagle]

You have to modify config.json

[keen crow]

The config file only appears after you've loaded the game with the mod installed

[clear eagle]

Open the game first

[worn crown]

Oh! Thanks! I'll try that now

[clear eagle]

Once you get to main menu, you can exit and edit it.

[worn crown]

Though my game lags from the starting screen, which I believe means my tablet might not be strong enough (which seems to be weird considering it should be quite strong)

[clear eagle]

What are your specs?

[pallid lance]

I think it's just modding in general. I have 82 mods and it takes me over 5 mins to start up my save file.

Someone told me here before that the memory? used my sdv is limited to 4 gb only modded or not.

[worn crown]

it has 6Gb of ram D:

[keen crow]

Fifteen minutes with almost 1000 mods here

[clear eagle]

It's enough

It's just SMAPI loading mods

[pallid lance]

Mine's a 16 gb laptop with graphics card. But SDV itself just uses 4 gb max. So if you have a lot of mods, I don't know the minimum number, but your game should start to slow down.

[pallid lance]

WOW.

[clear eagle]

It's because Stardew is 32bit

or should I say "was"

[pallid lance]

What does that mean?

[keen crow]

The beta will help as it removes that, but it's in beta, and only for pc at the moment

[clear eagle]

32bit programs only use 4GB of ram maximum

[pallid lance]

I don't really know the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit. I have the bare minimum knowledge on tech.

[pallid lance]

The lagging?

[clear eagle]

Yeah, it basically make programs load faster

and less lags

because you're utilizing full RAM instead of being limited to 4GB

[pallid lance]

Ahh ok ok. I've always been cautious of beta versions of anything since I'm afraid to break my game.

[keen crow]

Then it's simply a case of if your device has enough ram itself

[pallid lance]

save file I mean.

That's amazing. The modding community really is good hehe. But I'll just opt to wait for the stable version.

[keen crow]

Understandable, with 82 mods however, you'll probably not need it until it's out of beta anyway

[pallid lance]

How about you? You have over a thousand yes? Did it really help with the loading time?

[keen crow]

It does. Before hand it would take half an hour for the game to load, half an hour to load into my save

[high idol]

I'm still running with the unoffical 64bit client using SMAPI 3.12.5. cause some mods aren't compatible with 1.5.5. yet.

It works wonder with my ever growing list of mods

[dire fractal]

Woaah!! It feels so wrong... lool

[pallid lance]

Right? I was so shocked when I first saw him like that. This is the 2nd time this has happened actually, the first time it did I was able to contact the mod author and in her? next update it was fixed. But out of nowhere it happened again. This time I can't contact the author since they quit modding and deleted their SVO page. 😦

[pallid lance]

It didn't work. But thank you still for your suggestion!

[somber loom]

correct me if im wrong but doesnt DSV essentially have SVO baked into it?

[clear eagle]

Yes, that's why I suggested DSV

[keen crow]

It does, indeed

[main ingot]

^

[pallid lance]

Not to be rude but I'd like to stay true to the game as much as possible. Hence I even stopped using portrait mods. Thank you for the suggestion though!

[clear eagle]

Umm, you can use vanilla settings

[somber loom]

if you dont want portrait mods at all you could just uninstall

[clear eagle]

That;s what I am using

[pallid lance]

How do you do that?

Config file again?

[keen crow]

Yep

[clear eagle]

Edit config file

[somber loom]

but what im actually suggestjng is that the bug might be fixed in DSV

[pallid lance]

Thank you so much! Will do that in a bit.

[pallid lance]

Thank you! Will do it in a bit.

[worn crown]

Sooo I have an issue, my SMAPI on tablet doesn't seem to ACTUALLY load mods, although it does take a bit to start up and shows the mods loading while it's opening.. Also the Config file for FTM didn't appear after I started a new game and slept through one day to save... D:

[keen crow]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[pallid lance]

@high idol sent me their copy of SVO and Harvey finally looks like his normal self. Thank you so much for helping me! Thank you to the others too for their suggestions.

Hope that everyone has a nice day.

[worn crown]

The page was not displayed because the request entity is too large.

uumm... should I worry? xD lemme retry

[keen crow]

Means something is probably spamming red lines

[worn crown]

Yeah the file is actually 48MB

jeeeeez

open it in notepad and copy the relevant parts from the top and a little ways into the errors

You said you're on tablet, correct?

[worn crown]

Yeah, Android

[keen crow]

Did you download the android versions of each of these mods?

[clear eagle]

wait i forgot to ask you

[worn crown]

...the modding guide said I only needed to check for the mods to be 1.4 and before Nov 21 ç.ç

[clear eagle]

yeah i was about to ask that

some mods doesn't work in android

but im pretty sure FTM worked in mine

[worn crown]

It has to, cause SVE received small adjustements on android afaik and it requires Ftm

buuut.. :

[clear eagle]

you have to get 1.11.0

[worn crown]

it's 2021 omg
lemme do that, I'll get back to you soon, I feel so stupid

[clear eagle]

understandable xD

that's why I stopped playing mobile version and get PC version while on sale

[worn crown]

I did it the other way around because I love the game so much that I want to be able to play when I'm not home xD
I gotta save up for a portable pc 😛
Loading the game with the new ftm now

[clear eagle]

I'm sure it will work

[native dragon]

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

[worn crown]

Ooooh the game isn't even lagging on the starting screen anymore, that seems to have been it!
I can't believe I was so focused on checking every mod's month and version but I ended up missing that I downloaded a 2021 one 🤦‍♂️

[clear eagle]

Glad it is solved!

it is a huge pain in the a** to check month everytime you're trying to download mods.

[worn crown]

Yayyyy! Everything seems to be fine! Thanks a lot for the help 😄
For some reason my shopping bin seems to only have the opening and closing lid animations while the bin itself is..invisible xD But that doesn't matter, I'll check for minor bugs and stuff if I find anymore

Thanks again! 😄

[clear eagle]

Are you using recolors? Or builiding mods?

[worn crown]

No, I don't think so, my mods are:
automate - contentpatcher - dynamicnighttime - expandedpreconditionsutility - ftm - friendsforever - immersivefarm2remastered - jsonassets - pytk - sb_potC - skullCavernElevator - SpaceCore - SVE - WinterGrass

as you can see most of those are utility/core to others, I suspect the issue might be in IF2R but if that's my only bug I'll honestly just deal with it xD

[clear eagle]

Oh, then I don't know what's the cause of issue. I don't play SVE so..

[worn crown]

That's a shame! It's such a nice mod!

[clear eagle]

Yeah, I know it's a good mod. Just that I am already satisfied with vanilla.

Also not to mention, it isn't compatible with a lot of mods out there.

[brazen hawk]

That's why I didn't get SVE. Too tedious to always check compatibility.

[worn crown]

That's a fair point

[chrome cosmos]

a lot of people treat SVE as a must have mod but theres a list here that recommends mods for an sve-like experience without SVE: https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Recommendations:_Modular_SVE

a lot of the mods im using rn come from that list

[sonic marsh]

does anyone know if there is a mod similar to "builder's list" that adds a requirement list for robin's buildings??

like on screen, a list of items I need for buildings

Can someone help with this log please?
https://smapi.io/log/123e149249b7437d871fd0c54dd91ff4

Could there be a mistake in the installation of Smapi or something?

[clear eagle]

Did you try without SMAPI?

[hoary bane]

Will ask them to try, but I think it would work vanilla-

[unreal stratus]

Do you have speakers or headphones?

Did you disable them?

Plug them in

Hey how can i get more plate? Love of cooking mod

[neat plaza]

upgrade your frying pan

[glass matrix]

debating on getting love of cooking but does it work w/ dishes from the ppja mods as well??

[clever pine]

how to get pan?

[neat plaza]

you have it by default i think

you upgrade it at clints tho

[clever pine]

i didint get any :/

[neat plaza]

its not an item

[clever pine]

ooo, good to know, i'll check clint

thanks

[dire fractal]

Does "Look Up Anything" work with other mods ?

[outer turret]

It looks up anything indeed!

[dire fractal]

Ever since i downloaded it i can't play without it anymore

[dire fractal]

thank! so i can look up things like modded items ?

[neat plaza]

yup

[dire fractal]

Anyone else having frequent lag spikes using the SMAPI 1.5.5 beta? I can run 130 mods on SMAPI 1.5 with no issue, but I'm getting lag even with no mods on the beta :c

[worthy moth]

I've seen it mentioned here before - out of curiosity do you notice anything like memory spiking in relation to the lag spikes?

[dire fractal]

Nope, memory usage is consistent. Really the only thing I notice is the fps overlay through Steam - on SMAPI 1.5 it stays at a constant 61 fps, but on the beta it's capped at 60 and drops to 57 every 10 seconds. Not sure if that's helpful in any way but figured I'd mention it.

Adding mods makes the lag spikes more severe when they happen.

[worthy moth]

The biggest change in SDV 1.5.4 to SDV 1.5.5 on Windows is it switches from XNA to MonoGame, and there is some anecdotal evidence out there which suggests it may perform more poorly

[dire fractal]

I want to install the Tractor mod temporarily but I’m afraid that if I uninstall it later on it’ll corrupt my save. Is there a way to prevent this or does this even happen?

[tiny wave]

Does Lookup Anything mod and Tractor mod works on Android phones?

[dire fractal]

I use the Tractor via Summon without Garage to clean up my farm and remove it, when I've saved the game. So far I didn't have any issues.

What is Summon without Garage?

[naive drum]

Iirc you can safely just remove the tractor mod and the tractor becomes a horse with a really long name

You can also have an MP server where some people have the tractor mod and some dont!

The people who dont have tractor mod see a horse with a weird name

[worthy moth]

If you use Tractor the cheaty way (without having to place the building) you can safely remove with no side-effects

I think that's what was meant by Summon without Garage, it's a config option

[royal sierra]

Does anyone know the ID for the auto petter?

[royal arrow]

I don't but you could spawn it in with CJB Item Spawner

[worthy moth]

You can use this list to look it up https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Big_craftables_data

[hybrid belfry]

I have no sound when using SMAPI (No sounds, no music, absolutely silent)
-Using the newest version of SMAPI (Not the beta)
-I have no mods installed
-I did correctly change the launch options in Steam
-Playing the game "Vanilla" plays music and sound just fine

[proven thicket]

yeah the game just goes by so fast, the game becomes unbearably slow because you have to wait for all of the cooking recipes.

[high idol]

Well I came here to ask about this kinda mod so I guess I'm sorted out.

[proven thicket]

welp

[proven thicket]

like, with ppja, 5 in-game years with max friendship with everyone must be done in order to get every single cooking recipe!

so what is there to do to pass the time when the tractor like that does all of you daily chores in a flash?

[hybrid belfry]

I had the damn game muted oml

[proven thicket]

So should I even have the tractor if I make it fast and have crazy range the moment I start the game?

[royal sierra]

ty man!

i think i found it

[proven thicket]

I'll take that as a no

[modern gorge]

anyone use the artifact system drop framework?

[proven thicket]

Man, I give up on shearing my tractor expirience.

[modern gorge]

i see a number of comments about it being pretty unbalanced currently

[proven thicket]

the tractor?

[modern gorge]

ah, i meant the mod i referenced right before you

[proven thicket]

now I give up

[brazen hawk]

Wdym? Like it being op in the early game?

[proven thicket]

definitely

[brazen hawk]

Well you have to decide for yourself if you like the early game to be a bit more challenging or not. In lategame it doesnt really matter.

[proven thicket]

Ah, time to start a new file, and wait for the tractor!

[royal sierra]

Where am i supposed to look? all i did was find this so far "272": "Auto-Petter/0/-300/Crafting -9/Joja Co. patented technology for coops and barns. Keeps your animals content, but can't replace the full benefit of human touch. Hand-petting can be provided to supplement./true/true/0/Auto-Petter",. confused the listing number for the ID

[worthy moth]

272 is the index of the Petter in the Craftables list

Ie the ID, but it depends on what you're trying to use that # for

[royal sierra]

couple of friends and i are playing coop and crazy me decided i want to occupy my terrain with nothing but ducks. We went for community center and didn't know you couldn't buy the auto petters, don't wanna move to joja. so we'll use the ID glitch with marnie to spawn em. The idea of farming 40+ petters is... yeah, not fun

272 spawns an eggplant

[worthy moth]

Use CJB Item Spawner if you're just trying to cheat the items into the game

[royal sierra]

unmodded playthrough.

a glitch is preferable

[main ingot]

just install the mod, cheat it in, and then uninstall it? lel

[royal sierra]

while that sounds reasonable, i ain't the host, and nah, they won't comply. preferable was the wrong worth, a glitch is the only option =S

[naive drum]

Item.spawner is clientside

[worthy moth]

Imagine asking for help in #archived-modded-support and not wanting to use mods 😉

[royal sierra]

imagine being refered to a channel were most likely ppl would be able to answer, after using general, and then being mocked for doing so 🤡

[grave oak]

i gave shane a chicken statue and got a stardrop almost thought it was an easter egg

[worthy moth]

Maybe try asking your question in #general

[royal sierra]

thanks, didn't know it was client sided, i'm gonna give it a try

[royal sierra]

maybe try reading before replying.

[worthy moth]

I know I'm messing with you

[royal sierra]

right

[worthy moth]

Be well, friend

[naive drum]

Emoticons would have conveyed that better fury

aaalright are there any mods at all that let you put fences in places where you normally cant (aka the shoreline tiles of the beach farm lol)

[grave oak]

this is being a great skull cavern dive so far (i got skull cavern elevator but i only get an elevator every 10 levels and i can only use up to half of my max, so like, at level 100 i can only use the elevator to lvl 10,20,30,40,50)

[main ingot]

you can get autograbbers in there?

[grave oak]

ye

[main ingot]

from what

me want

[grave oak]

treasure rooms

[main ingot]

oh wow

[grave oak]

last save i had 4 autograbbers 3 of them were from the skull cavern

just gotta get extra lucky on the treasure rooms

[soft brook]

What texture/mod are you using for stuff to look like that??

[keen crow]

Looks like Gwen's craftables, Comet's gems and stuff and the new museum artefact retexture mod

[grave oak]

lots a stuff

also these

[keen crow]

First time I've seen someone use MO for Stardew

[visual socket]

Tempts me to do the same.

[grave oak]

cheyanne/ shane gave me flowers for the fair so i had to remove 1 diamond to fit in the display

[keen mirage]

I JUST updated my mods- those that don't use the beta smapi anyway- and my game was lagging SO. MUCH.

I have no idea what went wrong- https://smapi.io/log/926ef079db30432d836fd906588c4928

[frosty shoal]

Hey guys, ive had issues with my game freezing recently, and I have 23 mods. Ive played for 14 hours with no issues, but now I am having issues. I cant figure out which mod is causing the problem. Should I delete them all and start over?

[lament prairie]

When you save and reopen, does it still freeze?

[dire fractal]

You have a ton of errors.

[keen mirage]

i know i didn't have ANY errors before updating my mods i don't know what the heck happened

[dire fractal]

Also I think your SMAPI version is outdated.

[keen mirage]

well that might actually be the issue- didn't realize smapi needed an update thought the beta 1.13 was only for developers

[dire fractal]

The latest one is 3.12.7. You have 3.12.2.

[keen mirage]

ah ok i'll look for that- that very well might be my issue thx. i'll see if i can find the link

[dire fractal]

Go here: https://smapi.io/

No worries. You have Content Patcher mod installed right?

Ah yip. You have it installed but your SMAPI version is out of date.

So yes, it should all be fixed once you update SMAPI.

[keen mirage]

thx again- i go a few months without playing on steam let alone smapi/sdv and i forget everything XD

[frosty shoal]

Yes, it has happened to me multiple times

[dire fractal]

Lol no worries. Glad I could help. 🙂

[lament prairie]

!log We can try taking guesses as to which is most likely to slow things down

[native dragon]

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

[frosty shoal]

Ive actually deleted all the mods I had and am trying to start again, making sure they are all updated and installed correctly. If that doesn't work, I will do the SMAPI log

i only had 23 so i was like fuck it try again lol

I have a sneaking suspicison it might have been a furniture replacement mod I had

[ashen sapphire]

hello! I'm running into weird windows errors installing SMAPI on my pc. Is this the right place to be asking for help?

[lament prairie]

Content patcher mods generally are fine but some do update a lot and cause slowness

[lament prairie]

Yep! Want to send a screenshot?

[ashen sapphire]

Yes thank you so much! :)

So I was following a tutorial to install SMAPI, but for some reason the folders aren't all being detected/read properly for extracting

[lament prairie]

Interesting

Maybe you need to run as admin? (To be honest I use a Mac)

Or possibly your antivirus is eating files?

[ashen sapphire]

I've disabled my firewall, installed straight from SMAPI
the error actually came up when I tried to run as an admin

o maybe, how do I check that?

[visual socket]

Do you have a link to the tutorial you're using?

[ashen sapphire]

Yes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHN60sWc22o

I also was wondering if my game version might not be compatible with the current version of SMAPI, but since I run off Steam I'm guessing it's auto updated.?

[grave oak]

so apparently i got 2 cowboy hats

[vivid minnow]

Does anyone know of a mod that makes trying on clothes easier? Like to try them on without taking them all out of the closet?

[lament prairie]

As long as you get SMAPI 3.12.7 you should be good to go

[ashen sapphire]

Gotcha okay - yeah that's the version I've installed!

[modern gorge]

does "Artifact System Drop Framework & Geodes Handler" show up in the mod compatibility page when you search for literally anything?
it seems to be for me.

[terse narwhal]

i have mods downloaded and they worked before but for the recent days when i launch the game it always lunches without the mods

i checked the mods folder the mods are all there

[ashen sapphire]

I'll try a couple other things and see if there's a way to fix the weird error, but thanks for the help! :)

[modern gorge]

for example

[outer turret]

how are you launching it?

[terse narwhal]

desktop right click

the game is downloaded from steam

[visual socket]

Do you have a shortcut set to it?

[keen mirage]

does anyone know if there's any mods that allow Marlon and Marnie to have a real relationship, by chance?

[terse narwhal]

uhh keyboard shortcut no i just put the game onto my desktop so its easier to open

[visual socket]

I mean a desktop shortcut.

[terse narwhal]

i. i think yeah

[keen mirage]

i can't get keyboard/console commands to work in my game no matter what i do XD

so i guess they're stuck pining for eachother whilst mayor lewis keeps leading marnie on then lol

[visual socket]

Right click it, click properties, what does it say?

Wait, I'm getting a little ahead of myself. What OS are you using?

[terse narwhal]

computer? mac

[visual socket]

Yeah, I should've asked that first. I don't use Mac so I can't help.

[terse narwhal]

oh thats okay not a lot of people use mac anyways

[visual socket]

Sorry.

[terse narwhal]

its alright dont worry about it

[frosty shoal]

https://smapi.io/log/1869f7c4c4ca48629bad7d130191410a

my game is still freezing, here is my log

I deleted the installer and empty folders

[visual socket]

How long are you waiting before closing it?

[keen mirage]

oh i very very badly want to use the farmer's children mod, make any kids i have into NPC's wandering the town, going to school, etc

HOWEVER it requires the child to NPC mod to run amongst a few others but that one specifically and that mod has never worked for me in the past XD.

[frosty shoal]

I give it a minute. It freezes good, I need to close it through task manger bc I cant alt f4. im new to this modding thing so im not sure if im doing something wrong

[visual socket]

Try giving it a little longer.

[frosty shoal]

But ive followed the steps exactly so far. The specs on my PC are decent, so I dont see why it would freeze

[lament prairie]

You might need to add a desktop shortcut for SMAPI instead of the base game?

I always launch through steam personally, but I do use a Mac

[terse narwhal]

sounds like a solution (how do i do that)

i tried launch through steam it still opens with out mods

[lament prairie]

That's the thing I'm not sure about, I know SMAPI on Windows is "StardewModdingAPI.exe"

But Mac doesn't do exes

If you launch from Steam and it opens without mods that's a bigger issue I think

[clever furnace]

Hi guys? How can I use mods for Stardew valley? I cant find the workshop in Steam but I remember my brother used a mod to increase the walking speed

[lament prairie]

You might need to reinstall SMAPI, it might not be able to find it if you moved things around

[lament prairie]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

@clever furnace 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

[terse narwhal]

good idea time to reinstall smapi again

[clever furnace]

Thank you!

Normal walking speed seems so slow when considering the speed at which time passes

[terse narwhal]

OH MY GOD IT WORKED THANK YOU

[lament prairie]

You can also chug coffee on a horse 🙂

[terse narwhal]

TAKN YOU TAHNSK YOU

[lament prairie]

Yay!! glad it worked!

[visual socket]

nice

[dull locust]

That's cool

Have to fix two of my log issues before can figure out my SDVE

[daring acorn]

Question, can you add mods to pre-made worlds?

[royal arrow]

Yes you can! Some may have specific install instructions, but for the most part, yes you're good to go

[daring acorn]

Oooooh kookkoko tysm!

[lavish marlin]

hoping this weekend.

I never made a mobile version of it. Fundamentally no reason I couldn't, but it would be another branch to support.

[naive drum]

oh so it just Doesn't work ok

[lavish marlin]

IIRC, mobile uses a different version of SMAPI altogether

so I'd have to maintain two different codebases effectively

otherwise, it wouldn't be too hard. I'd have to provide ARM versions of the libraries.

right now I'm working on the .NET 5 version though

[blazing blaze]

my favorite type of wine ❤️

[clear eagle]

That's messed up. And you have even more messed up wines just than that I guess😂

I'm considering to use DGA

[modern gorge]

json shuffle is only an issue for existing saves right? new games will be fine?

[blazing blaze]

should be, and i think it's only an issue for existing items. once they're purged it should be fine

[blazing blaze]

i guess? i had grape wine wine wine? and chessecake wine seems kind of tasty.

[clear eagle]

I hope DGA doesn't cause issues

[lament prairie]

DGA may still have a few quirks to be ironed out, but the one thing it definitely doesn't have is the json shuffle

[naive drum]

My favourite bizarre json shuffle item

i got that

that is a three way hybrid

PPJA Dried Flower + Rose Quartz + Raffadax's Dried Grape Leaf

[blazing gulch]

Am I going to attempt making a png file to replace my wizard? Yes, Yes I am. Will I succeed? I have no idea. Wish me luck

Oh gosh no I cant do it...

So the think is

So it matches these seasonal ones

Problem is I have no talent for pixel drawing whatsoever

If you're trying to get started with it, see below!

[blazing gulch]

Phew! Thankss

[grave oak]

Dw it's pretty easy

The hardest part will actually be you doing pixel art

The rest is easy

[blazing gulch]

I couldnt change the sprites

But I did this to match it hehee

[dull locust]

@blazing gulch I think they look so cute and cool!!

[blazing gulch]

I wanted it to match the regular vanilla sprites since everyone was gonna get seasonal outfits so yep!

I dont claim it as my own tho since I only added more hair and its for personal usage

[blazing gulch]

Thank u

[gleaming vault]

help! so my bestie and i play with all the same mods, but for some reason her omputer does this weird thing and sometimes she ends up not having what i download and link to her, long story short, is there a way i can share my stardew mods folder directly to her?

ii tried using dropbox but it was saying it couldnt read some of the files.

[dull locust]

I don't believe so

I could be wrong though

[lament prairie]

You can zip the whole folder and send

She would need to delete her whole mods folder

And replace with the unzipped version of the folder you sent

[lavish marlin]

@naive drum

[naive drum]

nice!

i haven't gotten around to switching over to 1.5.5 yet, it's about the end of the semester here

[lavish marlin]

I also have CP:A set up because I want to analyze what their usage patterns look like

so far, they look very very very very noisy

every friggin' texture update forces a flush

[naive drum]

ouch

[lavish marlin]

I figured that that was the case anyways

the trick is to figure out, at runtime, what sprites are 'animated', and not discards previous versions

then we shouldn't get stupid levels of texture cache flushes

[naive drum]

DGA also has built-in animation support

[lavish marlin]

Debug.TraceLn("Forcing full MTexture2D Purge"); that line is getting hit stupid amounts of time

[naive drum]

that would explain the flickering etc

[lavish marlin]

Yes. I knew that CP:A didn't work right with spritemaster, I even knew why

I never really analyzed what pipeline it was getting caught in, though

mainly because I knew it meant I had to add another sprite data reference layer

the texture objects of the spritemaps have MTexture2D objects associated with them. When they detect a change, a cache flush may have to occur on the object

the MTexture2D objects themselves store sprite tables to sprite elements detected within the table

[naive drum]

there's some theories that animated DGA would work better with spritemaster than CP:A, and with a 1.5.5 SpriteMaster it should be much easier for people to test to see if it works!

[lavish marlin]

the complexity here is I don't want to be copying the entire sprite table for every animation of a sprite

DGA?

[naive drum]

...though i'm not sure if there's any packs actually using that animation feature yet

Dynamic Game Assets aka JA2

[lavish marlin]

the proper way to do animation is what nobody is doing: texture arrays

they're not doing it because SDV doesn't use texture arrays

(though I can)

how does DGA handle animations?

I know how CP:A does

[naive drum]

differently than CPA is all i remember

[lavish marlin]

the two ways I've seen so far are updating the specific sprite element within a spritesheet texture, and using render targets

the latter doesn't work with spritemaster at all because spritemaster intentionally ignored render targets

it cannot discern between ones meant for sprites and ones meant for system render targets like the lightmap

so, I need to figure out how to granularize the texture cache that's associated with a spritemap in this case.

it might make sense to just add a layer in it that establishes certain bounds as 'volatile'

and doesn't cache them

[naive drum]

https://github.com/spacechase0/StardewValleyMods/blob/develop/DynamicGameAssets/docs/author-guide.md#texture-animation

[lavish marlin]

problem is that that tells me nothing about the underlying implementation

glancing at it...

looks like it patches the SpriteBatch drawer instead

[lament prairie]

The source code is all there as well, though it may take a bit of work to understand

[lavish marlin]

that would likely work better with SM

not sure if those patches will conflict with SM's patches of the SpriteBatch drawer, though

[lament prairie]

(Definitely takes me a bit at least, but my coding skills are not that good…)

[lavish marlin]

yeah, it appears to replace the Texture2D and the associated render data with it

so long as it patches BEFORE spritemaster (it would be surprisingly difficult to patch after, though) it should work fine

unless every texture object is unique (which they don't appear to be). That would upset SM.

[dire fractal]

I need some help.

So I downloaded all needed sub-mods for Ridgeside Village and SDVE.

When I try extracting SDVE, it tells me that there are 10 other files with the same name. 😕

What do I do?

Skip them or replace them or?

Oh I see....

Part of SDVE's mod is the 3 customs which I already have installed from Ridgeside Village.

So I'd just go replace, right?

Yeah I just replaced them. Seems like they may have had 1 extra file in the SDVE version compared to Ridgeside Village's version.

All good. Cheers for the help. 😂

[warm grove]

i mean i dont think that should happen

at all

cause they should all be installed as seperate mods

oh though, stardew does some edits to the other mods so both might be needed (not sure myself as i installed them both seperately)

[sacred marten]

Anyone know of a recipes mod that don’t get affected by the JA shuffle?

[outer turret]

I think most will, unless they're added via CP which adds a new array of issues

[alpine ginkgo]

If it's a JA mod, then they're pretty much susceptible to it. As long as you're not adding new items to an in progress game, you should be fine. Even then, you can just use CJB Item Spawner and trash the shuffled items then spawn in the correct ones.

[bold heath]

anyone using small beach farm? crabpots seems to only gives me sea stuff and no river stuff

[neat plaza]

i mean
wouldn't that be intentionaL?

[dire fractal]

What's better, the Fishing Farm (base game) or Survival Island (DaisyNiko's Mod)?

@outer turret I just got excited. I look forward to your October Update for East Scarp. Haven't played SDV in a while but I do remember your mod.

I'm contemplating if it's worth installing the mod before or after the update.

[bold heath]

theres a river and sea fishing spots in the same farm, i can catch both type of fish but crabpots only work with seas even though its in the river tile

the nexusmods description too said i can catch both with pots, so was just wandering if someone else also had the same problem

[neat plaza]

ohh

[outer turret]

Probably not tbh.

[dire fractal]

So best to wait? How long will I have to wait 😄 😅

Release tomorrow? lmao

I wish

[worthy grail]

hey is anyone else having this weirdass problem

https://smapi.io/log/2b0b5bc0e2004d6189b0c9937b54529d

i'm playing modded co-op and i can't exit the saloon

like i can get in i just can't get out

[dire fractal]

Never played modded co-op and this is probably unrelated to your issue but you've got a few pending updates to do 😄

[worthy grail]

the only update i have to do is farmer to florist, which i'm using the JA version for right now because the DGA version has been very buggy for me

i'm also using JA version for all of PPJA i think bc artisan valley kept crashing

[dire fractal]

Yeah I don't use DGA nor do I plan to until it's more advanced than it is now.

I use JA.

[worthy grail]

yea if its helpful the game host could get in and out of the saloon fine and we're using the same versions and set of mods

[dire fractal]

Are you using DGA?

[worthy grail]

uhhh i have DGA installed but i dont think anything is using it as a framework rn

[dire fractal]

Yeah I wouldn't be using DGA at all. It's undoubtedly more advanced than JA but it has the potential for more bugs than JA.

That's just my opinion.

Plus maybe, and I'm not sure, but even having it installed could clash with your JA mods?

[worthy grail]

idts! supposedly it's JA compatible right now

and none of these errors are DGA anyway

the error on the smapi log says it's with the base game

[dire fractal]

Yeah I saw that.

Some issue with tilesheets.

[worthy grail]

yeah

[dire fractal]

Someone will be able to help. Wish I could but I've never dealt with that issue before sorry. 🙂

[worthy grail]

no worries, thank you!

[lavish marlin]

If anyone would have it, it would be me, and I only have it partially working.

[cosmic folio]

Hi guys, I'm having trouble getting the multiplayer mod to work

the mod that let's you have more than 4 players

I'm not sure how to get the mod to run and be put into effect

[chrome cosmos]

have you read the description?

[cosmic folio]

yeah, i think i found out it hasnt been updated yet

[queen hinge]

does anyone in here know the Love of Cooking mod ? I wanna ask if I could start a new save and just add that mod later when it's compatible with the latest thingie, would that work ?

[queen hinge]

ok, got that answer in another channel, thanks

[manic geyser]

does you guys know a mod which makes my farm bigger. And is it possible to use this mod on an already exsisting save file.

[crimson rune]

@manic geyser Immersive farm 2 remastered is pretty big =]

[manic geyser]

can I use it on an existing save file or do I have to meke a new farm?

[crimson rune]

Idk that for sure, but I doubt it would work without errors or losing stuff that's placed on your farm. But maybe someone else can give the correct answer on that

[dire fractal]

Afaik you can but you need to move your buildings (including the Greenhouse) and install reset terrain features to remove bushes and everything else that's out of place.

[manic geyser]

ok thanks ^^

[alpine ginkgo]

It should also be mentioned that Immersive Farm 2 Remastered can only be used with Stardew Valley Expanded. If you don't want to install that mod, I recommend DaisyNiko's Capitalist Dream Farm 2.

[royal arrow]

There's also an independent Immersive Farm 2 version on nexus, Immersive Farm 2 Fix https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3561

[brazen aspen]

Hi guys, is there a mod to make cooking more intuitive? Like sort by learnt recipes and maybe a search bar?

[solemn shoal]

I think this might do it for you: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6830

I don't know the most about it, but the creator is good people, and it's the biggest cooking-related mod I know of!

[elder imp]

I've been trying to fix this with Tiled as I was suggested for a few days but I genuinely do not understand how this program works and I'm so lost. I've read the wiki page too but that clarified nothing for me.

If anyone could point me how to fix the texture I'd be super grateful 😭

[sterile glacier]

Can someone help me with this mod? I want to change the color to the most lighter one but I don't know how to do it and I'm scared to do it all wrong and f up the files 😦 https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6098

[brazen aspen]

Looks good, thank you!
I'm trying to do mostly vanilla playthrough though so I need to think if I want to use this because it seems to do way more than just change the cooking menu 🤔
Do you happen to know if I can install it and use it with an existing save?

[brazen hawk]

I would only use Love Of Cooking in a new save, since otherwise a ja shuffle can happen

[solemn shoal]

Ahh, regarding that, sadly... have a look at this message (and the surrounding ones) by the creator: #making-mods-general message

Yeah.

[brazen aspen]

The mod creator said that it can interfere with custom items, I only have QoL mods installed so I shouldn't have any custom items, would that be fine in that case?

[solemn shoal]

But if you don't have anything installed that uses Json Assets, I believe it should be fine. Wouldn't guarantee it, though!

I'd backup your saves just on the off chance though, of course. Always a good idea anyway!

[brazen aspen]

I'll try that, thanks guys! 🙂

[sterile glacier]

Uh, whats the best app to open .json files?

[brazen aspen]

I'd say Notepad++

[solemn shoal]

And feel free to show the changes you make to the config for that mod so we can see if it looks good!

[sterile glacier]

Uh

I'm scared but okay

[sterile glacier]

Thank you sm

[sterile glacier]

I just wanted to know how to config this mod but I'm going to try alone

[elder imp]

just change that false to true

[brazen aspen]

@solemn shoal I've just noticed that I can turn off features for Love of Cooking, I've only left the new cooking menu enabled (and the cooking animation because it's cute lol) and it's great! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks again 🙂

[sterile glacier]

Oh thank you sm!

[daring acorn]

Ive gotten new blueprints but they arent showing in my crafting menu? Is there a chance the mods caused it?

[full storm]

where on pc do i see custom content added by mods?

trying to fix a json shuffle

[dusky canyon]

in your Mods folder?

[full storm]

do i just reinstall the mods that are giving me problems?

i thought it might have changed something in the save file

[lament prairie]

The only fix is to delete all the weird items in game unfortunately. You can use CJB cheats to respawn the right thing.

Don’t uninstall and reinstall things because that is likely to cause the problem again, unless there are mods you actually want gone

If you want some gone, do that first, then fix the json shuffle, then you can play as normal

[full storm]

thank you

[frail trellis]

i instaled swampi only to use the no fishing minigame mod because i really suck at fishing xD

[tall belfry]

Are there any mods to let my non upgraded coop have an auto feeder? I like the look of it better than the upgraded coop but don't want to keep manually feeding my animals inside

And I don't want them to disrupt the decorative grass outside 😂

[shell jackal]

I think CJB Cheats has an option to auto-fill the troughs. Never tried it though

[tall belfry]

I try to avoid that mod bc it's too OP haha

[royal arrow]

Another alternative is to get More Grass or Animals Don't Eat Grass. They will still chomp it and be fed, but your aesthetic needs will be there hehe

[shell jackal]

You don't have to use anything else in it if you don't want to. Just turn everything else off

[royal arrow]

More Grass has that feature built in. Both mods are available on nexus

[high idol]

Alternatively you can adjust the amount of grass that grows daily, is what I did to increase my amount of coops and barns.
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3365

[smoky gulch]

Can anyone help me how i fix it about the problem

[unreal stratus]

Disable UI info suite's Show Townspeople On Map option in the settings and download NPC Map Locations

[smoky gulch]

ok i disabled show townspeople on map and installed NPC Map Locations and didnt show it

wait

ok for not reason ModDrop didnt installed or enabled automatic

i installed it but it is still the same and it dupes ...

[tall belfry]

Oooo that sounds great! Will I have to "replenish" the grass that they ate?

[burnt harness]

wanted to ask how to manually change mod load order, because I wanna play multiplayer modded, but modded crops are different on each other's screens and we've determined that the problem is differing load orders. I can't seem to find a solid way of changing load orders online, can someone help?

[smoky gulch]

i think it fixed it i create a new savestate and looks fine

[royal arrow]

That's the thing, they don't actually destroy it! So it'll stay. I think the only time you need to worry about replenishing is in the winter, assuming you don't have a mod so that grass survives winter

[tall belfry]

I have that mod! So it will be like I have unlimited grass for them to eat outside?

[royal arrow]

I've not used it personally, but I think that's the idea :)

[tall belfry]

Thanks, I'll check it out

[tender plover]

so i. am having an issue where the "during the night the adoption agency dropped off your new baby" thing keeps coming up - the first time was fine, that one was expected. but now i have two more 😳 i turned up the config on multiple spouses to have an extra crib (and that didn't show up, idk whats up with that) but now the extra babies are showing up. what do i do?? how do i stop all these children from showing up 💀

https://smapi.io/log/4fcf202fb2bc46d7945ab3d8395d4ffd this is my log if it helps any

Guys

I really need to know how to do this?

anyone knows?

[unreal stratus]

It's less creepy than my baby under the bed

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/678284714829807636/790330372155506718/unknown.png

[tender plover]

I just don't want infinite babies 😭

[unreal stratus]

Just start an adoption agency!

[tender plover]

ljksjklfgjlkgjkl

i wish the extra cribs with multiple spouses actually worked 😂 even setting the config to have an extra crib the baby is just floating

[unreal stratus]

I'm seeing a SpouseRooms error with a tilesheet issue?

Sorry for the pings

[tender plover]

nah pls ping me i have this server muted 😂

yeah if im seeing it correctly its because multiple spouses doesnt have a room for krobus to pull from

but i dont have krobus living with me so 🤔

[burnt harness]

does anyone know how to manually change load order for vortex?

[topaz matrix]

would anyone know why these are happening?

[tender plover]

do you have any mods that would affect gunther?

[topaz matrix]

only one that i think would is SVE?

[tender plover]

check to make sure all your mods are compatible with sve

[topaz matrix]

is there a place i can check that?

[tender plover]

not sure sorry 😦

[topaz matrix]

no worries. best i can tell you is everything seems to load fine in smapi

[tender plover]

oh wait uh

are you using the beta?

iirc i think someone said sve was having issues with the beta

[topaz matrix]

i also get stuck coming up from the beach and it won't let me enter town--every time i get close to the bridge it takes me back down to the beach

beta smapi or sve? i'll check

[tender plover]

beta sdv

1.5.5

[topaz matrix]

SMAPI 3.12.7 with Stardew Valley 1.5.4 on Microsoft Windows 10 Home

[tender plover]

ah hm

i don't use sve but i'd guess thats effecting something if gunther/the museum are having problems and you have no other mods that effect that

[unreal stratus]

Give us a log so we can check your mods

[topaz matrix]

https://smapi.io/log/aa1b6b30d413433e876fe8e6be838855

thanks!

[outer turret]

might be Karmylla's?

they're not really compatible (What are you using KIM's for anyway? It edits interiors and the town map all of which are edited by SVE)

[topaz matrix]

tbh i haven't played since 2019ish and just came back recently to play again, so it could've been something that was relevant at the time and isn't anymore 🤷 i can delete it

[topaz matrix]

looks like this was the problem! thank you!

[hollow blaze]

I LOVE IT

[outer turret]

yeh back in the day KIM used to be a requirement of SVE. Im surprised it even loaded: would've expected there to be numerous "Multiple mods tried to load asset, will use default instead" errors. Which is what looked like it happened: that it just flipped back to default.

at one point i muted smapi in my volume mixer

please kill me

OH GOD MY CURSOR JUST CORRUPTED

[unreal stratus]

You love Kiwi?

[tender plover]

this is baby 4 now 😭 😭 help

[hollow blaze]

Of course i was so confused earlier when kiwi just walked into town alone right before the ridgeside festival was about to start speaking off when i went into the festival it said like Custom_Ridge_Festival or something had started it didnt just say the festival had started

[unreal stratus]

Ah, that's fixed in the next update!

[hollow blaze]

oki

[hollow blaze]

oh also on the map it still puts ??? even though ive been to RSV im guessing its the part of the map on the left

[hollow blaze]

put it back up for adoption

[tender plover]

yeah im gonna have to, i don't know how to fix this problem 😦

[hollow blaze]

wait you can actually do that

lol

[tender plover]

i thought you could via lewis' house

or at least something similar

[hollow blaze]

oh idk

[tender plover]

i just want my game to stop giving me kids lmao

[hollow blaze]

i havent even married my first npc yet i just need the pendant and alex is mine

[modest cedar]

im using the automate mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1063 this one) it states clearly that it should be possible to use wood paths and crystal paths as connecters, but i cant seem to get it working... ive downloaded the extra file and editet the json fil but nothing... anyone have a file with the crystalpaths or wood paths already enabeled? or any path really, just something more than just workbenches

[unreal stratus]

I think that's the secret woods overriding it ?

If you have NPC Map Locations it should show it properly

[hollow blaze]

ah ok i dont have npc map

[smoky reef]

Is there a way to automatically update mods? I haven't updated them in a year and I do not want to spend so much time redownloading stuff.

[hollow blaze]

i think there is a mod that can do it erxian

[smoky reef]

Apparently it doesn't work anymore and causes several issues. The modder stopped updating it as well.

[tender plover]

does anyone know the id of the adoption event so i can enter it into event repeater config to try and stop it

[unreal stratus]

Is the agency dropping off a baby every day?

[tender plover]

I think so, every day or at least every other

[unreal stratus]

Oh God

[timid hearth]

Hi!

Just a little question - anyone here had a similar problem?
The range of stuff like sprinklers and scarecrows are kinda... off.
Somebody else had similar problems? I mean, I use a bunch of mods, playing on the SVE GP Farm, but never had such a problem so far.

[tender plover]

First one was the 14th as normal - it's now the 19th and I've got 4 babies

[unreal stratus]

Are you using UI Info Suite?

[shell jackal]

Really glad I use No Kids Ever. xD

[timid hearth]

yes

[unreal stratus]

Remove multiple spouses and see if you're still having babies?

[unreal stratus]

Either get UI Info Suite 2 or make sure your zoom level and UI level are the same

[tender plover]

I think I'd have to divorce one of my spouses for that first though, i dont want everything to fall apart

[timid hearth]

ahhh, makes sense

[unreal stratus]

Ah, yeah. Your spouses might be hurt

[sacred marten]

Anyone tried this mod out?

[unreal stratus]

Infinite babies it is

[tender plover]

i have that!!

@sacred marten downtown zuzu is neat, there's not too much to do just yet but it's neat being able to have the option to go to zuzu at all imo
