[versed ivy]

How do you want it? google drive link? And do you want the farm file too?

[plucky pawn]

do i need to start a new farm to use the mods ?

[chrome cosmos]

you can zip them up and upload them here: https://litterbox.catbox.moe/ and yea just send the whole folder!

[chrome cosmos]

it depends on the kind of mods you wanna use

[orchid kestrel]

@chrome cosmos direct?

[lament prairie]

Either works, direct is faster

[plucky pawn]

i just downloaded the stardew extended

[versed ivy]

lmao litterbox

[orchid kestrel]

after i install i just click?

[lament prairie]

If you’re using Stardew Valley Expanded you’ll almost certainly want a new save

[lament prairie]

Are you following the instructions from the wiki?

They tell you what to do

I think there’s an install exe on windows you have to run

[plucky pawn]

okay thank you cause im still within the first season first year

[lament prairie]

But I use a Mac so I’m not 100% sure

[versed ivy]

https://litter.catbox.moe/74ohrf.zip Here you go

[chrome cosmos]

thank you! ill take a look in the morning, gotta head to bed now

[orchid kestrel]

i dont know where it is tho

[versed ivy]

it is getting a bit late

[plucky pawn]

and what is vortex?

[lament prairie]

Vortex is a mod manager that may cause you mysterious bugs

Probably don’t use it

[orchid kestrel]

i feel like i did something wrong

[lament prairie]

It should be in the zip you just downloaded

[orchid kestrel]

the SMAPI file isnt loaded

[lament prairie]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows

Follow the instructions here

[dire fractal]

any mods about having the fish and achievements done?

[lament prairie]

What do you mean by the SMAPI file isn’t there?

Did it not download?

(Also I have to go soon)

(Hopefully someone else can help you as well)

[orchid kestrel]

i mean its downloaded but it brings me to a zip thing where it says something about the travel trip has expired

[lament prairie]

I have no idea what that means

But you need to extract the zip

There’s a bunch of ways to do that on Windows

Maybe your zip extractor expired or something?

[orchid kestrel]

i do not know how to extract

[lament prairie]

!zip

Sorry, there’s a governor comamnd but I don’t remember it

Try googling “how to extract zip file windows”

!extract

!unzip

[native dragon]

Files with the extension .zip, .rar, or .7z are archive files, which you can extract to get the actual files inside. For a .zip file, just right-click (or long-press on Android) it and choose the option like extract or uncompress. For .rar and .7z, you need to install third-party software first, like 7-zip https://7-zip.org on Windows, Keka https://keka.io on macOS, PeaZip https://peazip.github.io on Linux, or ZArchiver https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver on Android.

[orchid kestrel]

ill just worry about it later

[zinc zodiac]

hi! i have a question that I was hoping someone could help me with. my game is unable to run with any mods and i am unsure as to why. i have tried completely deleting the game from my laptop as well as deleting all the mods. even if i just add one mod (like json assets or spacecore), it will freeze and never make it past the terminal screen. while i can still play without mods (fortunately), i do enjoy using them and want to understand why my game won't run with them even though it used to perfectly fine. any ideas?

[chrome cosmos]

are you playing on mac?

[versed ivy]

Btw Skell I managed to make the save file readable, it's a lot easier to look through it now

[chrome cosmos]

OOH bless u, thanks

[versed ivy]

In my editor I mean, I'm not sure there's any change to how you see it I might be able to do that now that I think about it

[chrome cosmos]

if you do make any changes @ me or dm me so i dont miss it!

[versed ivy]

Oh shit it does, lemme format these files for you real quick, I'll do another upload

This should help out tremendously holy crap

[versed ivy]

new zip here https://litter.catbox.moe/0ztxew.zip Managed to format the files to a way more readable xml format. It helps if you use a code editor

What am I saying you're a mod creator lmao

[chrome cosmos]

aaa thank u!!! <3

ahah i am indeed, but im not very good with code i do have a code editor though

[versed ivy]

You can always ping or dm me if you need something. Also I would recommend reading it in a code editor, since after formatting it now has collapsible sections. I think notepad++ even knows those, but my go-to has always been VSCode

[chrome cosmos]

i appreciate that! yea i download VScode a while back and never used it so guess its gonna be put to use now lol

[versed ivy]

Oh it's such a lovely piece of software

You can customize the shit out of it

And there's extensions for anything really. Since the community for it is massive

[chrome cosmos]

ooh i noticed that, it was just overwhelming to open it after using sublime for a while ahah

[versed ivy]

Yeah it's a little different, just ease into it

[chrome cosmos]

will do once i understand C# better

okay gonna go to bed for real now lol, goodnight!

[versed ivy]

Goodnight to you too!

[ember salmon]

hey guys so i have a question

wat the heck did i do wrong when installing SVE

https://smapi.io/log/1a8f597421c54b659d12c29e8aa7d8a6

[versed ivy]

Oh wow

2000+ errors lol

[ember salmon]

i got a new PC so i re installed all the mods i used to have n its wild

IKR

like idk wat the heck i did wrong

cuz the game loads but the sve ppl don't show up

i need coffe

[versed ivy]

Firstly I'd recommend you update your swim mod, just for good measure

[ember salmon]

i don't have the beta ver so is that ok

[versed ivy]

Ah I just saw smapi saying there was a new version, wasn't aware it was a beta version

How much did you do before modding the game?

Something messed up as soon as you started the game

It seems your SVE installation is alright, the problem is CustomMusic was skipped which stopped it from loading SVE

[ember salmon]

iii diid alooot in game

[versed ivy]

Are you using any XNB mods?

[ember salmon]

so i had new pc but b4 that i was moving stuff from teribite all the time

terabyte drive

[versed ivy]

Ah

[ember salmon]

so i had 2 keep starting over n over

[versed ivy]

Okay you probably want to verify the files

Things can get lost when transfering like that

[ember salmon]

rt

thats true

[versed ivy]

When moving something like stardew you really just want to move the save files and the mods folder

[ember salmon]

cuz this time i donloaded all mods from scratch

ok

[versed ivy]

Everything else is super duper easy to get

[ember salmon]

ok

[versed ivy]

Are you using steam?

[ember salmon]

yes

i found my backed files

[versed ivy]

It's not a big deal now, you can just verify the files. Takes a few mins is all

[ember salmon]

ok

did it

[round wedge]

Hi, someone can help me find out why i getting a error on my smapi ?

[versed ivy]

try to open it again

[ember salmon]

ok

[versed ivy]

hopefully that fixed some or all of it

[versed ivy]

!log Send me the log

[native dragon]

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

[round wedge]

here > https://smapi.io/log/85e628ea75ac49af80f0c36422cc7090

[ember salmon]

@versed ivy tysm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! very helpful

it works

[versed ivy]

Awesome. Usually if it complains about content files you can run a verify integrity files and it'll do the trick

[versed ivy]

Can I get you to check if a file exists in your SVE CP folder?

[round wedge]

sure

[versed ivy]

check for this one: [CP] Stardew Valley Expanded\assets\Tilesheets\z_ForestWest_Mist.png

[pearl grotto]

Yo can anyone tell me if the error here is a bug with one of pathoschild's mods? Thanks! https://smapi.io/log/4ee8218893484b929339c9afc85be614

[versed ivy]

Oh some of this shit is even in spanish or something

[round wedge]

i have it

portuguese XD

maybe i got error cause Ferngill Weathers ?

both have mists, right ?

[versed ivy]

I'm not too familiar with this type of exception

[versed ivy]

It could be

That's a solid theory

[round wedge]

i always double check if a mod is compatible with SVE

thats so weirds

weird*

[versed ivy]

You seem to have a problem with the Combat Level Damage Scaler mod

I'm positive I've seen this kind of error before but I can't remember what the fix for it is

It seems a little like there's a problem with a missing projectile in the game files or something

[versed ivy]

Could you try to disable the weathers mod and tell me if it still complains?

[fallow inlet]

Hey y’all, dumb question. Can I have a save going with mods and a save going without mods?

[versed ivy]

You very much can

[fallow inlet]

If so, how do I turn them off?

[versed ivy]

The simplest solution is to just put a prefix on the Mods folder name. Rename it to _Mods for example. Iirc it should stop smapi from loading any of them

[pearl grotto]

Since it's referencing game time in the error my partner and I were also wondering if it was potentially conflicting with the Sleepless in Stardew mod (the error only occurred when it was after 2am). Should I go ahead and forward this to Pathoschild?

[fallow inlet]

Thanks so much!!!

[lament prairie]

Is sleepless in stardew a pathos mod?

[versed ivy]

@lament prairie isn't this a common way of doing it?

[lament prairie]

In general I would try to isolate the error to a single mod, then report via established methods (GitHub or nexus) with a log file

[round wedge]

@versed ivy i will

[lament prairie]

Yep this should work. A dot also works well on windows but Macs try Not to let you do that

[dapper timber]

Combat Damage Scaler is a Pathos mod. We have isolated the issue to this mod, but we're wondering if this was causing a conflict since the error is referencing game time.

This error never occurred before the mod updated today, but that could also be a correlation/causation situation

[versed ivy]

But the game time reference only comes after it tries to update the projectile

[lament prairie]

If you remove the sleepless mod, does that fix the issue?

[orchid kestrel]

so i added snapi and i put it through the steam now what

[lament prairie]

Now you find your mods folder and install mods there

There should be instructions on the wiki

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started

[orchid kestrel]

which folder

console commands?

[lament prairie]

Look here under “find your game folder”

No, you put mods in the mods folder

Console commands is a mod

[versed ivy]

Solid suggestion. If the game time is out of normal params it could mess up other mods that uses it

[lament prairie]

Make sure to unzip your mods

[orchid kestrel]

I just put it in this folder?

[versed ivy]

There should be a Mods folder where you dump all the mods

[lament prairie]

1. Find the game folder using instructions on wiki
2. Find “Mods” sub folder to put your mods into

[orchid kestrel]

Yeah but Elizabeth said unzip

[lament prairie]

When you download mods from the internet you need to unzip them before using

[versed ivy]

Yeah you need the uncompressed files

[lament prairie]

Like if you download from Nexus it comes as a .zip

Or occasionally.rar

[orchid kestrel]

Do I first put it on my pcand then extract?

[lament prairie]

Yes

Download to downloads then unzip

Then move unzipped folder into Mods folder

[orchid kestrel]

It says mods go here and that does it do anything else or do I just load

[versed ivy]

That's it

Mods go into that folder

And you can boot up the game

[orchid kestrel]

Oh

[versed ivy]

It's really quite simple

[orchid kestrel]

Yeah I'm not a simple person lol

My graphics go brrrr

[versed ivy]

What gpu do you have? stardew is usually pretty lightweight

[orchid kestrel]

Yeah after the sampi thing my graphics goo brr

To unzip you press extract right

[versed ivy]

yes

[orchid kestrel]

Should the file say smapi 3.12.7-2400 or something else

Ooh it couldn't load the mod

[versed ivy]

SMAPI said that?

[orchid kestrel]

No the file

Of the mod

[versed ivy]

I don't quite follow. What did you do?

[orchid kestrel]

Extracted the unzip and brought it to that folder

[versed ivy]

So the easiest for you would probably be: After downloading the mod go to your downloads folder, right click the zip/rar file and press extract here. Then mode the extracted folder into the Mods folder.

Like so

[orchid kestrel]

I don't have the same as you

[versed ivy]

The same?

Most of the zip programs works the same way

Anywho the steps stays the same. Extract the mod to somewhere easy for you, then move it to the mods folder

Doesn't matter how you extract/unzip it

[orchid kestrel]

Here I'll be a bit

[glacial briar]

Did you read the installation instructions? Those would probably be very helpful.

[azure gulch]

What are y'alls favorite mods? Like ones you absoluely have to have in every single game?

Mine is automate. I will never go back to doing things manually.

[foggy ember]

ok automate ❤️ also chest everywhere

[glacial briar]

Ooooh, excellent question! Visible Fish is everyone's must-have right now.

[versed ivy]

Activate sprinklers is also something I'll never not use again

[glacial briar]

And we have lists! https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Category:Recommendations

Mine is CopperSun, but it's a bit older now and doesn't take into account some great newer mods.

[versed ivy]

That and maybe the mail service mod

[foggy ember]

tractor is prettyhandy

i make it really expensive to get tho

[glacial briar]

BTW Cloud, did you end up giving modding a try?

If you're doing a Joja run, of course Joja Immersion is crucial 😄

[azure gulch]

I'm looking at that one right now!

[foggy ember]

also combine machines, just allows you to stack machines in inventory

[versed ivy]

I thought about trying to make something at one point. It doesn't seem to be the most difficult of things

[glacial briar]

So it's.... visible to you? 😄

[glacial briar]

They really aren't if you stick to some basics 👍

[foggy ember]

larger inventory bag also

[azure gulch]

I have some ideas, but I haven't put them together into manifests yet.

[foggy ember]

i think it's 48 slots?

[versed ivy]

I just wouldn't know what to make, I feel like there's nothing missing in my gameplay so far

[glacial briar]

So you guys are mostly into QoL mods?

Me, I love things like Canon Friendly Dialog Expansion, though after 4-5 plays with it I'm itching for something new.

[versed ivy]

I have a bunch of content and recolour mods too

[foggy ember]

sdv+ ridgeside valley too

i also have adialogue mod

[azure gulch]

I also love the PPJA mods. They add so much to the game.

[glacial briar]

Add your fave recipe, or dialog to your fave NPC. If you play with friends, add some surprise lines referencing in-jokes.

[foggy ember]

i use greenhaven farm right now, i like thats it's not too big and is great for organizing

[orchid kestrel]

wheres that one insta water mod?

[azure gulch]

I'm going to try adding quests! I have the basics, I just need to take the time to make the manifests and test it out and I think I'll be able to make a good amount

[glacial briar]

YOu only need one manifest 👍

[orchid kestrel]

?

[glacial briar]

Since all the quests can go in one json, unless you're planning to release separate mods

[versed ivy]

That's the thing, I despise things like dialog and cooking So I have no favourite in that aspect lmao. I like new functionality and content

[glacial briar]

Different hat 😄

Dialog is my fave and all my mods have new lines added

[versed ivy]

I'd need a eureka moment to find something I'd want to make

[glacial briar]

We don't actually have much in the way of a just QoL rec list; would you be interested in making one for the modding wiki?

[azure gulch]

Ooh right! That makes it easier. I'm just gonna start with one mod for now and see if I can get it working properly lol

[foggy ember]

lewis secret society cult mod hahahahaha

deranged cult of lewis worshipers

[versed ivy]

My partner loves the story and dialog with characters. I always ignore all NPC related stuff lmao. She's the one getting hearts with people and I focus on optimizing the farm and animals and stuff

[foggy ember]

thats why he needs the gold statue

[azure gulch]

I have 38 QoL mods, 45 PPJA mods, and 23 that add new items!

[foggy ember]

i want tiramisu cake as an item

[orchid kestrel]

does anyone know the insta water mod?

and where to find

[azure gulch]

7 new NPCs, plus SVE and East Scarp

[foggy ember]

recipe: coffee, flour, sugar

[azure gulch]

You mean auto water?

[glacial briar]

Did you look on Nexus? Did you try google?

[orchid kestrel]

yeah but like no energy or like...

when you hoe the soil it auto waters

[azure gulch]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8167

[thick shard]

Can someone help me

[glacial briar]

You could make a special mod just for her. 🙂

[azure gulch]

Ohhh no I'm not sure about that. You can do CJB cheats and then automatically water

[glacial briar]

Actually, I should release a "fill in the blanks" mod for adding some special lines for friends/partners 🤔

[orchid kestrel]

yeah but someone has the mod where it insta waters

[glacial briar]

So use google

Or ask that someone

We are not your personal google

You don't even tip 😛

[foggy ember]

auto water does insta water

[glacial briar]

Off the floor? With insurance? Learn to dance?

[orchid kestrel]

wait whats the links for different mod sites again

[thick shard]

I NEED HELP WITH MODS

Me and my friends are dumb

[glacial briar]

So add it! Very easy. 🙂 https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Tutorial:_Adding_a_Recipe

[orchid kestrel]

[upper ember]

What exactly do you need help with though

Like, got any errors, just general installing help?

[glacial briar]

You probably aren't dumb, but you sure aren't helping your cause by not telling us the problem.

[thick shard]

INSTALLING THE UNLIMITED PLAYERS MOD

[glacial briar]

Sounds like a recipe for ooms

[foggy ember]

oh cool ty!

[upper ember]

Sheesh, calm down

[glacial briar]

You might also want to grab a mod that already adds chocolate; I have one. Let me check what it's called.

[thick shard]

Sorry I always use caps

[glacial briar]

Ah, here we go: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8354

You can easily have your recipe reference their JA items.

Though it would be polite to ask the author first if you want to publish it. Personal use, do as you like.

[versed ivy]

It's funny how caps has been perceived as people yelling

[foggy ember]

very true

[glacial briar]

Welcome to the internet; we had to come up with some conventions to convey tone 🤷‍♀️

[foggy ember]

:3 og emojis :/ >:C

[glacial briar]

Ooh, I know a mod that might interest y'all. Better Mixed Seeds.

Always play with it.

Always configure it heavily before a new save. 😄

[azure gulch]

I love better mixed seeds!!

[thick shard]

Yeah so nobody going to help me

🧍🏾‍♂️

[foggy ember]

ok whats one more mod +

[glacial briar]

Guess not 🤷‍♀️

[azure gulch]

Although getting trellis crops is annoying, but I never checked if I could configure them out lol

[glacial briar]

Well, this one will cause a JA shuffle 😄

[azure gulch]

you need to be specific

[thick shard]

Mmmmmm

[thick shard]

K

[glacial briar]

Cloud, you think trellises are annoying, wait until you get the Cola Shop and plant invisible purple seeds. 😄

[versed ivy]

Isn't it just dumping the mod into the mods folder?

[glacial briar]

I would venture the mod has documentation from Nexus or Moddrop or whatever that could be read

[azure gulch]

Oh gosh 😆

[upper ember]

Walkthroughtrellis is a life saver

Even though it acts weird in multiplayer and likes spamming random errors that do absolutely nothing

[glacial briar]

But then you'll have a hard time findign the invisible purple grapes!

[foggy ember]

what's a good joja friendly mod

[versed ivy]

It's literally on the mod site

Installation
Mind the requirements
Unzip the provided zip in your Stardew Valley Mods folder (so that it is in an own folder)
Open the delivered config file and set the player / cabin limit to whatever you want.

Mods now adays are just this easy

[glacial briar]

I AM SO GLAD YOU ASKED (pardon the shouting)

[versed ivy]

Joja friendly?

[glacial briar]

https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Recommendations:_Selling_Out_to_Joja

[versed ivy]

Burn it to the ground

[foggy ember]

haha ty!!!

[glacial briar]

I have a list! Only like half of the mods on it were made by me 😄

[foggy ember]

ok but like ifeel bad for shane when completing cc lol

[glacial briar]

BTW, while SVE is on the list out of obligation, I don't personally rec it if you've already used SVE.

[versed ivy]

I'll make a mod that puts Joja on fire and has pick pockets in the shop. Just going in there will get you broke

[glacial briar]

So do it 🤷‍♀️

Some people will enjoy that 👍

[versed ivy]

Doubt it haha

[glacial briar]

Chin, you use any of those and like them please do let me know.

[foggy ember]

the list sounds chefs kiss

i will def be adding hehe

[glacial briar]

Naturally, these are the most important: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/users/114762643?tab=user+files

And have the best dialog 😄

[foggy ember]

i have sdve tho? will i have to delete it?

[glacial briar]

Nah

SVE does have a config you'll need to edit if you want to buy Joja Seeds from the shop instead of the Blackmarket though.

Becuase when SVE added its Joja route it overwrote the Joja shop so no one else could edit them originally. Now you just have to use the config. 🙂

[round wedge]

@versed ivy i got lots of mods out of my folder, and still getting the error !

[versed ivy]

Maybe Calcite can help out

Nope, Calcite is here for recs and jokes and telling people to read docs

[azure gulch]

Can anyone link a tutorial for making mods? I'm trying to find the link I got a couple days ago and I'm missing it, and google isn't being helpful lol

[glacial briar]

You're not stupid; modding is weird and he wasn't specific

[main ingot]

check the stardew modding wiki

[versed ivy]

His log was very specific

[glacial briar]

See that modding wiki I just linked? Go to its front page.

[glacial briar]

Oh, what did it say? Can you read the red text?

[versed ivy]

I helped him earlier today, and gave some suggestions

But I don't know why his mod crashed

[azure gulch]

Thanks Calcite!

[versed ivy]

Sorry @round wedge I'm not quite sure what it is. I've tried looking for similar problems online but it hasn't amounted to much. We'll try to look at it tomorrow when there's some more mod creators and more experienced people active in chat

I've seen the error before, but I can't remember what the heck causes it

[main ingot]

all the log says is that sve fucked up somewhere

Mod crashed when loading asset 'Maps\z_ForestWest_Mist' first error

it couldnt find a tileset

[versed ivy]

Yeah

[main ingot]

assets\Tilesheets\z_ForestWest_Mist.png'

so its looking for this in all the errors

and cannot find it

[versed ivy]

Had him check for the file and it is there

[main ingot]

AND then it hit OOM

so the problem was two things

so !oom

[main ingot]

damnit

[versed ivy]

Well a bunch of exceptions would contribute to that

[main ingot]

there we go. so sve will make you run into oom a lot because its heavy

so what you'd need to do is upgrade to the beta thats 64 bit

also you might want to reinstall sve

thats it. thats the log

also cpa makes the game lag so i'd avoid using it imo

[main ingot]

see above messages

[round wedge]

i will

Thanks so muchhh3

i will look for this 64 version

[main ingot]

just update to the beta ^^

[round wedge]

u mean 1.5.5 right

[azure gulch]

Can someone help? I think I fixed the mail from friends error, but I'm not sure what I'm missing from East Scarp; I have all dependencies listed. The test quest file is the one I'm working on, but I have a manifest in there and idk what's wrong

https://smapi.io/log/a54a36517b254d678fcb4a94da11f6ae

[versed ivy]

Yes, 1.5.5 is the beta version

[round wedge]

i will do it

thanks guys

[azure gulch]

Found the east scarp mods I was missing, but still unsure why my test quests mod isn't showing up

[versed ivy]

You're missing some dependencies for East Scarp, it seems your New Items folder needs a manifest file and your Test Quests folder is seen as empty

[azure gulch]

Yes, my test quests folder has a manifest in it, idk why it's saying it's empty

[versed ivy]

Well what can it do with just a manifest file?

The manifest file tells some info about other things in the folder, but it's useless alone

[azure gulch]

I'm testing a mod I am creating. I need to make sure I am doign the steps right

So I need to make sure it loads the manifest correctly. It should still load, but say that it's been ignored

[versed ivy]

No clue how that works, sorry

[glacial briar]

You also need a json with content to go with your manifest

Smapi is actually very "smart" for a computer program and will ignore a mod without content

You can thank Pathos; I don't think most users realize what a good job he did on the error messages.

[zinc zodiac]

Oops I just saw this but I am playing on a Mac

They were probably asking because there are known issues with M1 macs with the latest stable versions of SMAPI - if you're not already opted into the beta, you could try doing that! https://www.patreon.com/posts/55035968 Most mods are working in some form or another, but you'll have to update several as well as SMAPI.

Check out https://smapi.io/mods for compatibility status of all known SMAPI mods as well as links to unofficial updates where necessary. Elizabeth also has a picture guide to installing the latest SMAPI on Mac https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Mac_Pictorial_Guide#Installing_.NET_5

If you don't want to try the beta, or it doesn't fix your problem, you could try rolling back to older versions of SMAPI (not recommended) which worked for some people, or running SMAPI through Rosetta.

(ugh, annoying when you delete parts of your message when editing...)

[pallid crown]

BJS Time Skipper doesn't work for me for some reason, even when running with no other mods
Yes I've made sure its the newest version, yes I've tried to restart my computer, yes I have the newest non beta version of SMAPI (3.12.7)

Or I should say it "works"

[glacial briar]

Skipping around time always causes weird consequences in-game

[pallid crown]

I have not gotten to use the mod once, it's been like that ever since installing it

[glacial briar]

If you must skip time, use the debug command instead

But it's not gonna work very well for a regular playthrough; it's usually for debugging and testing only

[pallid crown]

I'd rather use the mod since it at least used to and still does to my knowledge, just make you repeatedly sleep until set date arrives.

[sand vault]

how i update smapi?

[pallid crown]

Youtube is your friend here just look it up

[azure gulch]

Is your zoom and UI zoom on the same percentage?

[pallid crown]

Yea

[sand vault]

:c

[glacial briar]

Sad faces do not preclude going to smapi.io

The nice people are asleep 😛

[main ingot]

^ she's right, you know

[pallid crown]

We can poorly explain it to you and have it take 30 minutes, or you can spend 8 minutes following a tutorial

[main ingot]

just go to smapi.io it literally says

[azure gulch]

Hmm I'm not sure then

Me or Teddy? 😛

you, calcite

[pallid crown]

Hey that's my quote!

[glacial briar]

Lani, get us back on topic, say your fave mod

[main ingot]

i sure do love vibrant pastoral recolor but i sure do dislike that not a lot of stuff is recolor compatible with it

so i must manually recolor myself 😔

[sacred wedge]

big same

first recolor that vibed with me since eemie's

[main ingot]

yes! i love eemie's recolor but it's not 1.5 compatible

[glacial briar]

Not if you're like me and just ignore inconsistancies 👍

I played like three in-game months with that 1.4 Korean recolor 😄

[main ingot]

oh my god

i'd lose my mind

[runic cobalt]

[glacial briar]

Tai, I hear you made nudibranches?

Show, show!

Get us hyped!

[runic cobalt]

What

Its Lemur commission ;-;

[glacial briar]

So just show the blue one; she already showed that elsewhere.

Hype! I know it looks fab.

[runic cobalt]

Ah but i dont have pictures here

Just with all of then

Them"

[glacial briar]

Wow, I do know you have no ability to crop an image...

[storm warren]

is there any good artisan goods adjustment mods? it annoys me that my really happy sheep and cows are making iridium star stuff that goes down in price when turned to cloth and cheese

[glacial briar]

Depends on your idea of "good"

[foggy ember]

I thought you had to use cask to het iridium cheese

[runic cobalt]

You can see them in the white server

I send there :V

[glacial briar]

I know I can

[storm warren]

i dunno, maybe something that makes iridium milk make iridium cheese or similar?

[glacial briar]

I want you to show them to others so they can give you compliments

[runic cobalt]

[glacial briar]

It would be easy-peasy to make this mod yourself with PFM 🙂

[storm warren]

or gain different types of Mead so fancy honeys are good

i... have never made a mod before

[glacial briar]

Hit #making-mods-general and learn PFM.

No worries, this one will be easy!

Even if you've never coded before

[storm warren]

ohboy

[glacial briar]

Let me show you what a pfm mod looks like.

[runic cobalt]

I learned JA First Just reading other mods files

[foggy ember]

How do i find oh what mods to update without running smapi?

[glacial briar]

Log in to Nexus, see what it tells you has an update available

Or be like me and don't worry about updates if stuff is working fine

[foggy ember]

Good tactic tbh

[glacial briar]

It's been great with all the beta stuff flying around

[warm osprey]

Hey so does anyone know if Walk to the Desert Redux works on the Beta?

[glacial briar]

Did you check the mod's description?

Or the comments on Nexus?

Or try searching this channel?

[warm osprey]

I did all those things but search the channel. I did check Smapi.io as well

Thanks for the recommendation!

[glacial briar]

You can also just tyring using the mod 😄

[warm osprey]

I uninstalled vortex and am getting around to doing it manually so i made a .txt doc is VScode with links to them all and realized i need this for zuzu city.

Oh its optional!

Cool

I just looked on the zuzu city mod

but yeah i have a few mods to install

Is it okay if i share this somewhere? It has a lot of mods that I think add to the content without breaking the spirit of the game.

[glacial briar]

Share what? Your list?

You can always make a rec list on the modding wiki

But if it's a zip/collection, then no

This is a fun "debate" that has happened multiple times before

[foggy ember]

dowloading coppersun mods now hehe :3

[glacial briar]

Feedback welcome!

[burnt moon]

quick question, anyone know if it's possible to have more than 4 players on multiplayer?
tried using the unlimited players mod but doesn't seem to be working...

[glacial briar]

Sounds like you answered your own questin

[burnt moon]

was just wondering if I'd set it up wrong, or if there's a workaround to get it working etc :/

got 9 people wanting to work on the same farm rather than split into 3 groups of 3 :/

[restive zodiac]

Just in case you didn't find it - you can just install the new version of SMAPI the same way you installed the old one! (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Option_A:_use_SMAPI.27s_installer for Windows, for example) SMAPI will handle the updating part.

[glacial briar]

Ah, a nice person has arrived.

Everyone who was waiting for that can now ping mouse with their questions instead of looking them up themselves. 😛

[restive zodiac]

I don't really think of myself as a nice person, but I do often ask myself if something I am about to say will actually help someone in any way, or just makes me feel better/vindicated/etc, which seems to qualify a lot, heh.

[glacial briar]

Lol, you go out of your way to be "nice" 😛

[restive zodiac]

Not really, but we probably just define the word differently. In any case, I do try to help people when they are stuck and contribute to an environment where people feel free to ask questions, even when they are questions that might seem dumb or repetitive, which I think overlaps with "nice" for a lot of people! hehe

[sand vault]

i made it

[restive zodiac]

Congratulations :P

[sand vault]

xd

[glacial briar]

I'd rather teach a man to fish, metaphorically speaking

And call out when they're being passive agressive 🤷‍♀️

Much more important to me than being "nice"

[restive zodiac]

That's what I meant about probably defining the word differently! I don't actually value niceness very much in itself either -- to me it's kind of an empty word, like "pleasant" or "inoffensive" -- the sort of thing your mother might say about someone you brought home, if she absolutely cannot think of anything else to say about them, haha.

I do value kindness (which is different, to me), and accuracy, and things like that, and until I am sure that being, say, hurtful to someone will absolutely lead to a positive response, I try to avoid that entirely. (Not that that is relevant here, just clarifying the difference in niceness as a goal in itself vs "until I have proof beyond just how I feel/what I want that doing otherwise is better".)

I don't think anyone or everyone has to help with anything or everything, so none of that is meant to force anyone to answer differently. I am just explaining why I try to answer regardless of how "worthy" a person or a question might appear. I also always try to include links to more information so that they can find it themselves the next time (like the difference between linking directly to an unofficial patch on the forums vs linking the mod's section on the compatibility page!).

I also really hate when people are passive aggressive, so if something I said came off that way, it wasn't intentional. I just try to explain things in hopes of clearing up potential misunderstandings.

[burnt moon]

there's also a difference between being 'nice' and being helpful.

Calcite's response to my question was neither. ^.^

[restive zodiac]

This channel (and channels like it in general) get lots and lots and lots of questions all day, every day, so it can be really frustrating to see people not take advantage of all the nice resources and documentation we have for things like troubleshooting. I think most people are still trying to be helpful, just in different ways.

[glacial briar]

I'm not saying you're passive agressive, I'm saying you enable it

[lunar cipher]

Just because Cal didn't give you the answer you wanted doesn't mean she wasn't nice. She didn't insult you for the question or deride you in any way, just stated that you'd answered your own question by saying it wasn't working

[restive zodiac]

I didn't notice your question, but Unlimited Players is listed as compatible here https://smapi.io/mods/#Unlimited_Players, so I'd start with a SMAPI log https://smapi.io/log

[glacial briar]

Relevant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aasECsxrSzQ

[foggy ember]

how do i know if i have 1.5.5 or not lol i think my steam is set up to always update so it should be 1.5 right?

[restive zodiac]

(Also make sure you actually build more cabins vs just trying to load more players. That one's come up a lot :P )

You have to opt in to the beta specifically, so if you didn't do that, you're probably not.

[alpine ginkgo]

1.5.5 is opt in, it's not officially released.

[restive zodiac]

This post has instructions for how to do that https://www.patreon.com/posts/55035968

[foggy ember]

ok ty !

[burnt moon]

does this apply to all the extra players joining as well?
I wasn't able to build any more than 3 cabins.

[restive zodiac]

Yep, that mod just removes the limit for building cabins, so if you can't build more, you should at least make sure the mod is installed correctly. (The SMAPI log helps get that part out of the way.)

(There's soooo many open reports with that mod I know someone that used it recently so theoretically it should still work, but oof :P )

[warm osprey]

@glacial briar its just a .txt files with names of a lot of mods in alphabetical order with links to the beta compatible versions

[glacial briar]

Nice, put it on the modding wiki!

[warm osprey]

Okay cool!

[glacial briar]

We can always use more rec lists 👍

Especially for the beta

[warm osprey]

I was about to ask what the url was. then i saw your name. and i was like. I read that part 4 times already. And cool!

[glacial briar]

There are two wikis so it's easy to get confused

[burnt moon]

oml this is turning into a wild goose chase... having to install .net 5 just to get SMAPI 3.13 X'D

[glacial briar]

Also, there's no style guide (on purpose) so you can make your list however you want.

Even just make it a link to where you maintain the list on another site; that's cool.

[lament prairie]

There's the ConcernedApe tweet

https://twitter.com/concernedape/status/1395243158460530689?lang=en

ConcernedApe (@ConcernedApe)

@ArcaneDescent @JessYoMama You can do it without a mod. Go to %appdata%/StardewValley and open the file called startup_preferences. ctrl + f for "playerLimit" and you'll find something like this: <playerLimit>-1</playerLimit>.

Change the -1 to any number you like...

[restive zodiac]

Yeah, the save edit option... meh.

[lament prairie]

(Idk if this is a good idea, but if your mod isn't working and you can't figure out why...)

[restive zodiac]

Oh, only a startup_preferences edit, that is different than how I remembered!

I wonder if that's from 1.4

[burnt moon]

Ahhh startup preferences! was trying to edit the MaximumPlayer count in the world save file >.>

[warm osprey]

Uhh. I think its gonna take me a few days to make the wiki page lol. Right now its literally just this

[burnt moon]

okay, now to wait until Robin opens to see if I have the ability to build a 4th cabin.... if so, updating to the beta and SMAPI 3.13 worked... ..>

[warm osprey]

For 140 lines

But they should all be compatible with the Beta as well as SVE, Zuzu, and Ridgeside

[lament prairie]

I mean technically you can just dump that onto the wiki

And let people sort through as they will

But it might be nice to make it prettier and stuff

[warm osprey]

Yeah but i want to make it look pretty and be more beginner friendly.

[burnt moon]

ohhhh yes it worked!!!! ❤️ Thank you @restive zodiac !

[restive zodiac]

I just checked Unlimited Players myself and it seems to be working fine, still, but Elizabeth's suggestion seems good enough! Just remember if you aren't sure if something is working at all, get thee to https://smapi.io/log

[warm osprey]

I'll upload it as is for now and put a disclaimer that i am in the process of making it look better.

[restive zodiac]

I will take Elizabeth's credit

[warm osprey]

Also the smapi tool and log is amazing

[burnt moon]

you're the one who suggested I get the 1.5.5 beta 😛

[warm osprey]

Smapi is actually one of the best modding API's i've ever seen and it makes troubleshooting so frikin easy.

[restive zodiac]

Oh, I didn't know what we are talking about. Yay then, for whatever is working!

[lament prairie]

I think for this channel at least, patience is the top quality for being "nice", in that if you're more patient you are less likely to snark at the 4387954395734th person asking how to install SMAPI or unzip a folder or whatnot and more like to sic the governor on them

[glacial briar]

Heh, whatever you feel like is fine. An abridged list, just text, whatever.

[lament prairie]

I definitely feel the temptation to snark from time to time, but I try to hold back

[glacial briar]

So I keep trying to tell people

[lament prairie]

Also, there are always a few users who require a lot of patience to disentangle what the key issue is

[warm osprey]

@glacial briar I'm working on becoming a full stack web dev so i should probably at least make it easy to read.

But for now its just a wall of text. Till i have more time.

I have to remove the expansion mods yeah?

Do i need to remove things like Vibrant Pastoral Recolors for SVE?

[lament prairie]

I'm not sure I quite caught what you're up to, but I think that if you didn't remove the recolor it would probably just fail to load and either fail silently or more likely red text in SMAPI

[warm osprey]

I was referring to a recommendation page on the WIKI

why did i caps that

[lament prairie]

I mean you can rec SVE if you want

You could make a section of SVE plus SVE-adjacent like the recolor for SVE

[glacial briar]

Do what you like 😄

It's your rec page

[warm osprey]

Ahh okay! So I'll do that then. I thought i read that its not allowed.

[glacial briar]

As long as you're not, I dunno, racist or something.

Why wouldn't it be?

[warm osprey]

Because i cant read and thought that said Do not.

and Im tired. And this community is super wholesome

so i didn't want to offend. but man i love it here already

Man that page is ugly

[glacial briar]

lol, whoops

[warm osprey]

But its there. With no links

[glacial briar]

Hey, once you make a page you get a modding badge!

[warm osprey]

I do?

[warm osprey]

Thats cool!

[glacial briar]

For you!

[warm osprey]

What do i do with it?

[glacial briar]

Think about it with pride? print it out and tape it to your computer?

Make it your new pfp?

[warm osprey]

I saved it to my photos : P

[glacial briar]

(Technically that's the art for editing a page, but work with me)

https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Modding_Badges

[warm osprey]

YAAAY

Eventually it is my goal to get all of the coding badges. Especially the filled the console with red text one.

[glacial briar]

Lol, that one's not too hard to earn XD

[main ingot]

i earn that one at least once daily

[lament prairie]

every time i test a new theory about how DGA syntax works

[dire fractal]

When the option to choose where to install the SMAPI Mod Launcher comes up in the Console Panel, do I choose 1 or 2?

I extracted SMAPI to C:

[lament prairie]

I always pick 1

[glacial briar]

What does the text say?

[lament prairie]

In theory I could specify something special

But that sounds annoying

[glacial briar]

It's very user friendly if you read teh text

[dire fractal]

Where do you want to install SMAPI.

[glacial briar]

So pick the answer for where you want 👍

[dire fractal]

It says it has to contain StardewValley.Exe.

[glacial briar]

That does narrow down your choices

[dire fractal]

So it would be where Stardew Valley is installed correct?

So number 1?

[glacial briar]

Sounds correct, yes

See, I knew you could figure it out. 🙂

[dire fractal]

Cheers.

Was just a bit confused as it says SMAPI needs to be extracted not to the game folder but then asks where do you want to install SMAPI. Lol.

[glacial briar]

If it's in the game folder it's hard for it to modify that folder 😄

The installer, that is

Which is different from installed smapi

[dire fractal]

Oh.

Lol.

I'm not techy despite being an IT Student.

[glacial briar]

You just learned something 👍

Two somethings, in fact. The first was to read the instructions. 😛

[dire fractal]

Lol cheers! 😄

So obviously there is no back button so I'll have to relaunch the installation console.

Lol

[glacial briar]

Smapi's fortunately easy to run and smart for a program

Got a few mods in mind you're gonna try first?

Want to go Joja? 😄

[dire fractal]

I agree. My brain just likes to overcomplicate things lol.

[glacial briar]

Yeah, a lot of people do that.

[dire fractal]

No thanks. I don't support crazy.

[glacial briar]

Boooooooooo 😛

[dire fractal]

If I wanted to go somewhere to sleep peacefully, I'd go to Joja Mart.

[glacial briar]

Also, "crazy" in this context is slightly perjorative. Most people go with "evil" though I disagree with that characterization.

[dire fractal]

I think they're secretly robots.

[glacial briar]

That's fair.

Anyway, gone "mod shopping" yet? Or just gonna start with SVE?

[dire fractal]

I'm not entirely sure.

I really want all the location mods.

I'm also hoping to install Content Patcher to make some CP Mods. 😄

[glacial briar]

Oooh, nice!

Hit the modding wiki (points to name URL) for tutorials

[dire fractal]

First mod I plan on making will be New Zealand Foods and Fishes.

Fishes are where I gave up last time. That sprite sheet really confused me.

[glacial briar]

Oh right, I remember you talking about that!

Sorry, I get people mixed up.

[dire fractal]

Lol all good. 🙂

I think it was the sprite sheet wanting to know where fishes are to be placed. It was quite confusing. Didn't understand it at all.

[hollow cypress]

Is there any way to use ReShade and still get achievements?

[dire fractal]

I can't seem to download Content Patcher. When the 5 second countdown is finished, it doesn't download the mod.

[warm osprey]

@dire fractal do you have SVE?

[glacial briar]

Sounds like a Nexus or browser problem

Or maybe Vortex? Which I avoid

[warm osprey]

Also check your browser downloads and see if its blocking it as an "unsafe download"

Wait i got confused with content patcher and custom music and a few others included with SVE

my B

And i just downloaded it like 10 mins ago and it worked fine. I do have a premium account but you should still be able to download it without one.

[dire fractal]

No other mods are installed except for the SMAPI Mod Loader.

[dire fractal]

Possibly Nexus? Never had any issues previously with mods on Microsoft Edge.

Didn't use Vortex either. Downloaded SMAPI straight from the website.

[warm osprey]

nexus caps downloads at super slow speeds for non premium members

like 1 mb/s i think

maybe less

[dire fractal]

Content Patcher is less than a megabyte.

The problem is that it doesn't start the download.

[warm osprey]

hmm.

What button are you using specifically?

[dire fractal]

What do you mean?

[warm osprey]

Manual or vortex?

[dire fractal]

Manual.

[warm osprey]

did you scroll down?

on Nexus mods if a mod has more than 1 required file (or multiple standalone versions with differences) it just sends you to the files page XD

Super easy thing to miss.

[dire fractal]

Working now 😄

[warm osprey]

It doesn't refresh the whole page just the part below the tabs

[dire fractal]

Maybe I clicked Mod Manager.

[warm osprey]

Its sneaky. And did you click manual on the files tab or up top?

[dire fractal]

Manual on the files tab.

[warm osprey]

Weird.

Probably accidentally clicked mod manager. If you have nothing installed for it nothing happens

[dire fractal]

Well, just now it worked and I clicked on manual on the files tab.

Can't remember before though. Must've done something wrong.

Anyways, thanks for the help! 😄

[restive zodiac]

(I was thinking when I read it that I've never had to deal with that awful download redirect stuff because I've had premium for over a decade 🙄 Not being able to imagine what someone is talking about having trouble with is a weird downside :P )

[lunar cipher]

Nexus might've just bugged out on you too, that happens sometimes

[azure gulch]

I'm too obsessed with mods. I thought I was set with a good mod list, then I got deep into nexus and download 20 more mods and now have to make another new save lmao

[warm osprey]

Yeah mouse as soon as i started modding skyrim i was like. Aiight. Premium it is. took me ten minutes of waiting before i realized just how long it would take to download 44 gigs of mods.

[lunar cipher]

Only 20 new mods? 😛

[restive zodiac]

Don't forget to check out the ones on moddrop while you are at it 😄 You can make it 40!

[azure gulch]

On top of 286 I already had 🤣🤣

[warm osprey]

Also @azure gulch i was just compiling my existing mod list and added 30. I'm up to 149.

OH OKAY THEN

[azure gulch]

Mouse dont tell me that, now I'm gonna get more 🤣🤣🤣

[dire fractal]

My mods just officially became 1.

[lunar cipher]

Check out some of the themed rec lists and you could easily boost it up to an additional 80 😛 https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Category:Recommendations

[warm osprey]

Also im pretty sure mod drop was made by a guy trying to steal credit for Skyrim SE mods on nexus.

[azure gulch]

I was literally there 😅

[warm osprey]

Hey i just made a really crappy one!

[lunar cipher]

Pfft, still in small fry numbers, I'm afraid 😛

[azure gulch]

I had to shut the computer so I can sleep lol.

[warm osprey]

Its just a wall of text!

[azure gulch]

Theres just too many mods, I need them all

[warm osprey]

Cloud i feel that.

[azure gulch]

I got a really cool one that adds foragable insects

[warm osprey]

Ooooh

[restive zodiac]

I bought lifetime many many years ago at this point, but it was before some changes made that I was unhappy with. So I still have it and guiltily benefit from it anytime I need to auto-download a shit ton of things at a time haha. (Well... theoretically at a time. My internet is so shitty that in practice I might as well click on each one and have it mailed to me on a flash drive :P )

[glacial briar]

But did you get the Joja ones? 😄

[azure gulch]

And one that turns the mine entrance into a fruit bat cave

[warm osprey]

I am luckily limited by what works with the 1.5.5 beta

[azure gulch]

When I start my new save tomorrow I will do Joja just for you

[warm osprey]

or else i'd just get mods and never actually play the game.

WHY

YOU HEATHEN

[azure gulch]

Because I want the achievement

[glacial briar]

I will have you know I have many satisfied users 👍

[azure gulch]

And the mods that Calcite sent me are really cool!

[warm osprey]

Cloud thats a good point. But i still hate that its necessary.

[glacial briar]

And my dialog for Joja Immersion is so in character they couldn't tell what was mine and what might be vanilla

[warm osprey]

Wait what mods?

[lunar cipher]

It wasn't, actually, this is a common misconception. Have a read of some of these: https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/comments/omdetf/moddrop_modpacks_and_mod_ownership_policy_qa/
https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/comments/7n20ai/moddrop_apologizes/

[azure gulch]

Theres a bunch of Joja route specific mods

[restive zodiac]

Because Pierre is just an unsuccessful Morris, obviously!

:P

[azure gulch]

Does the Joja mods work with SVE? I like that I can befriend Morris

[glacial briar]

They do!

[azure gulch]

Cool!

[glacial briar]

However, you'll need to use a config option in SVE to allow other mods to edit the Joja shop

[lunar cipher]

(also ha, the response from Dark0ne didn't age well, huh? 😏
Perhaps the most glaring issue was in regards to version control and the rights we grant mod authors on Nexus Mods.

First, never actually delete any mods from our servers. Sure, no longer show any mods that have been deleted to the end users on file pages (so deleting version 1.1 means it's no longer available in the "files" tab), but keep those files on our servers so our mod pack system can maintain absolute historical parity. This would be a major cause of contention with mod authors and it would cause an absolute riot. Many, many mod authors would leave because of it. One, because mod author's who are expecting their old versions to be deleted for good and no longer downloadable will find that their old versions are still available via the mod pack system. Two, because mod authors will be dealing with support requests from their users using old versions they've patched and fixed (potentially) years ago, from the mod pack system. And three, because many mod authors like having absolute control of what we host and what can and cannot be downloaded, and this would be removing, even partially, that right and ability for them.```)

[azure gulch]

Tbh I'm probs gonna start 2 saves tomorrow. One joja and one CC. I have a super challenging CC mod that I'm determined to beat

[glacial briar]

Morris also really loves a lot of the Joja Seeds crops. 🙂

[restive zodiac]

You could always just edit the tile property of their shop to replace it with yours

[azure gulch]

That's really helpful, I never have anything he loves lol

[glacial briar]

Mouse, you do not want to start the Joja shop wars debate up again. XD

[restive zodiac]

(Not that that is better, I mean if the option wasn't there!)

[warm osprey]

@lunar cipher oh okay! I did uninstall it because of FNIS, but thats good to know.

[azure gulch]

His birthday being spring 2 is inconvenient lol

[warm osprey]

COMMUNITY CENTER GOOD. LITTLE HAPPY APPLES GOOD.

[glacial briar]

If you want to be "pure" and hate Joja but also want an autopetter, there's the Joja Blackmarket.

[warm osprey]

Now you're talking my language

[glacial briar]

You know, so you can have your ethically wrong cake and eat it too

[lunar cipher]

There were issues in the early days of ModDrop and a lot of the Skyrim modding community has sworn off ModDrop as a result of that, but to my knowledge, the person responsible is not longer involved with ModDrop and the MD team has put in a great deal of effort to clean up their image and work alongside mod authors

[azure gulch]

The mod I got makes CC super hard. Like my last play through, when I got to year 2 I didnt even have all of the rooms open. Only like 3 bundles complete, and not for lack of trying

[glacial briar]

The Joja Sellout list deliberately includes a mod to put junimos in the woods 😄

[warm osprey]

Yeah well. Fore made his mod search the registry for the moddrop and then not run if it detects it

@glacial briar but. but my happy little apples in the big house with stars on it.

[restive zodiac]

(Drifting off topic I suppose except as it related to ModDrop, but that FNIS check is bullshit, you should uninstall that instead :D Not an easy thing back at the time but at least there is Nemesis now.)

[glacial briar]

You really think the apples are happy doing things for humans?

[warm osprey]

I'll do a joja run one day when im feeling particularly self depricating. Till then fuck joja. And is nemesis a full replacement?

[clear eagle]

Yea, nemesis is way better now

[glacial briar]

Demanding you clearcut the forests and bomb the mines to get them stuff?

[lunar cipher]

And people wonder why the Skyrim community is such a hellhole 😩 Toxic entitlement on all sides, I swear

[azure gulch]

They probably dont like being enslaved by us later either

[warm osprey]

@glacial briar what? they want like 9 trees worth of wood and 100 rocks.

@azure gulch we DRANK THE LSD, we GET THE APPLES

we held up OUR side of the contract.

[azure gulch]

I did not consent to the lsd

[warm osprey]

Now we have ETERNAL SERVITUDE. And happy little apples that i refer to as joo ja boos because i forgot their name for a time and went with that.

Yes i know the real name but its not as fun

[azure gulch]

😂😂

I gotta go to bed yall or I'm gonna be up all night talking to ya. 😅😅 I gotta wake up sometime so I can be a heathen and join joja

[glacial briar]

What if I told you Joja Immersion includes a cute sideplot where Sam lets Vincent come along while they make improemenvts?

[azure gulch]

I saw the mod that vincent gets a soda stand and tbh that was all it took to get me to side with joja

[warm osprey]

I actually know nothing about vincent yet. First time playing SVE still

[glacial briar]

He and Sam go trainspotting after and have season dialog 👍

[warm osprey]

romancing Sophia

[glacial briar]

Vincent is vanilla 😛

[lunar cipher]

(Cola Stand is available whether you go CC or Joja, for the record 😛 )

[warm osprey]

Wait who's vincent then

[azure gulch]

Sam's little brother

Son of Jodi

[glacial briar]

Shhhhh, they should go Joja

[warm osprey]

Ohhh the red haired kid got it

@glacial briar why do you hate small businesses.

[azure gulch]

Shhhhh dont worry, I will

[warm osprey]

Who hurt you

[glacial briar]

Literally made a mod where Vincent opens a small business

[warm osprey]

But HES LIKE 6

[glacial briar]

And one where Shane takes over the Joja clearence bin as a side hustle

[lunar cipher]

By the way, if either of you are interested in adding another mod to the collection, may I interest you in Diverse Stardew Valley? https://www.moddrop.com/stardew-valley/mods/580603-diverse-stardew-valley-dsv-seasonal

[azure gulch]

If Pierre wasn't such a prick sometimes 😂😂 theres a cutscene where he try's to sell your produce for like 10,000 gold

[warm osprey]

Also does anyone know if social network is retroacive.

Shameless plug lol

[lunar cipher]

Absolutely 😄

[glacial briar]

I rec the lightweight version if your laptop is old like mine

[azure gulch]

I have a seasonal outfits mod already, I suppose they will conflict together?

[lunar cipher]

There's an update coming in the next day or two, but it's safe to update mid-save

[glacial briar]

You can turn on/off whchever chars you want

If you're using Seasonal, that art actually was originally DSV I believe

But Airyn can give you the history if you want

[azure gulch]

Oooh okay. I'm pretty sure the mod is just called like cute seasonal outfits or something

[dire fractal]

Apologies for putting the wrong post in game-support.

[lunar cipher]

Assuming that the one you've currently got is Slightly Cuter Aesthetic, it'll clash, yeah. However, DSV has more outfits (it has multiple outfits per season and outfits for each of the festivals instead of only two) and it also has other additional features like spouses wearing the mermaid pendant on their portrait, unique swimwear, pyjamas, and a lot of little dynamic features

[dire fractal]

There is a minor error with the SDV Website in regards to launching SMAPI with Steam.

[azure gulch]

Oooooh! Might need to update then.

[dire fractal]

The error is very minor. A step was included that isn't necessary.

That step basically outlined 'Pressing OK once SMAPI code entered into the Steam Launcher in properties'

There is no OK button. Could be a tad bit confusing for first-time installers. 🙂

[lunar cipher]

Plus if you're not interested in the diversity edits of the characters, you can set them all to use the vanilla character designs in the config. It's also very configurable - like Cal said, you can enable each character individually if there's another portrait mod you'd rather use for a particular character

[azure gulch]

Oooh. Definitely gonna check it out tomorrow!

[glacial briar]

Somehow I am now trying to write a letter simulaneously romantic and widely applicable.

Should apply at Hallmark after this.

[restive zodiac]

What step, I don't see what you are talking about 😌

(I tease; the launch options setting stuff looked different before a Steam update awhile back. I removed it, thanks!)

[azure gulch]

I'm actually going to sleep now, its 1am and I gotta get up early with a stubborn 4 year old who doesnt like to sleep 😅🙄

[lunar cipher]

Goodnight, sleep well 😄

[zinc zodiac]

@restive zodiac @dire fractal thank you guys for responding! I’ll look into both of those options and if I still have problems I’ll come back here

[restive zodiac]

(I'm trying to keep my brain from saying silly nonsense like:

*Dear mammal,

You are a wonderful representative of your planet, and stars were surely shining upon the hour of your birth, whether or not that hour was conducive to viewing them... One or more of your features is pleasantly symmetrical, but it is your asymmetries, whatever they are, that are alluring.*

haha)

[glacial briar]

Nice, you can use that to personalize yours 😄

I'm just whipping up a quick mod that you can install on your partner's game to send them a romantic letter and then have the NPCs say something cute

[restive zodiac]

haha, not for me I think, but I see why you were angling for both !

I've seen a lot of couples play, so I can see a lot of people wanting a quick and easy way to do that

[foggy ember]

Can someone tell me why villagers in ridgeside are calling me stinky lmao?

[dire fractal]

Hi my name's Potato. I am wondering how can I use .xnb mods with SMAPI? I dunno but I want to use some portrait/sprites mods with SMAPI, I overwrites the .xnb files in content folder and open Stardew modded, it didn't work, it works with Stardew normal. Are there any tool can help? (Sorry I am bad at English....and mod)

[glacial briar]

No, it'd be a spoiler 😄

You'll find out

[glacial briar]

!xnb

[native dragon]

@dire fractal 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).

[foggy ember]

fair lol

[neat plaza]

!xnbzola

[native dragon]

An XNB mod replaces some of your game's .xnb files to change the game (unlike newer mods that go in your Mods folder). This is an older type of mod that's no longer recommended, and can cause a number of issues. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods for help using them (and a list of alternatives using Content Patcher), and https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).

[neat plaza]

hehe

[dire fractal]

Would you recommend using SVE on an old save file after reaching perfection or on a new save file?

I want to use it on my old save file soon but I was just wondering of the risks

[tawny notch]

i made a new save file for SVE + the remixed community center for a newer experience and also some cutscenes in sve elude to the fact youre new in town,, compatibility wise with old saves in my experience it never bugged when i went to an older save but idk about perfection stats tho

[glacial briar]

New for sure

[dire fractal]

Thank you!

[odd coyote]

Can android use mods

[neat plaza]

yes

[odd coyote]

@neat plaza how I looked in the pins

[clear eagle]

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

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

[neat plaza]

oops
misspelled it

[clear eagle]

I thought the bot wasn't working. 😄

Anyway, I came here wondering if there are any new "immersion" mods

[tawny notch]

can someone enlighten me on the boarding house mod? i wanna download it but i really dont get what its about hshshshs

[neat plaza]

its just a place for npcs

basically

[fallow basalt]

Mods don't exist on mobile

sadly

[neat plaza]

they do

just not ios

[fallow basalt]

no

yeah see they dont

[neat plaza]

android
exists

[fallow basalt]

iOS

what about iOS

[clear eagle]

Well, it's more about iOS being too strict.

[neat plaza]

it doesnt have it
bc apple doesnt let you run unofficial apps

[fallow basalt]

sigh

the game is kinda boring without mods

this is my 76th year

;-;

[neat plaza]

wow

[fallow basalt]

well cya

humans

[neat plaza]

bye

[glacial briar]

That was weird

[neat plaza]

what was?

[glacial briar]

^ that

[neat plaza]

oh
the person denying android existing?

[glacial briar]

Among other things

[neat plaza]

ah

[urban summit]

Does anyone have any more to suggest

[glacial briar]

No, the suggestion well has run dry.

Visit nexus meanwhile

[urban summit]

Damn

Alrighty

[outer turret]

Also adds a new exploration area and 3 npca

[copper steppe]

(sorry if this is a dumb question) Idk if anyone can help me but I just got "bear mount" and It was updated last year and I've seen others using it but when I installed it my horse is just still a horse (but it has the bear mounts options in the organizer for mods in game) is there anything I can do? I've scoured the internet for other bear horse mods but to no avail

[neat plaza]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[copper steppe]

https://smapi.io/log/a544d35bea1848c48ecfe3abc38270fb

[glacial briar]

Are you using Vortex?

Try not using Vortex if so.

[copper steppe]

no im not using vortex just smapi and content patcher

[glacial briar]

Then what's "the organizer for mods in game"?

[copper steppe]

sorry I forget the name, I can check, its the mod that lets you have the little gear in the bottom left of the menu

[glacial briar]

Anyway, you have no mods installed according to your log.

Do you know what a zip is?

!unzip

[native dragon]

Files with the extension .zip, .rar, or .7z are archive files, which you can extract to get the actual files inside. For a .zip file, just right-click (or long-press on Android) it and choose the option like extract or uncompress. For .rar and .7z, you need to install third-party software first, like 7-zip https://7-zip.org on Windows, Keka https://keka.io on macOS, PeaZip https://peazip.github.io on Linux, or ZArchiver https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver on Android.

[glacial briar]

I also learned today that kids don't understand file directories now.

[copper steppe]

Idk why it would say that, I have plenty of mods installed that I use

[copper steppe]

yeah I unzip the files and drag the folders into the mods folder of stardew

[glacial briar]

Huh.

[copper steppe]

everything ive downloaded so far has been fine

[glacial briar]

And yet you don't have a proper log?

Weird.

[copper steppe]

yeah I dont know why it says that

[neat plaza]

it also seems to not even say "starting game"?

[glacial briar]

I got nothing 🤷‍♀️

[copper steppe]

yeah Idk maybe I did something wrong? I followed the instructions

[neat plaza]

could you try
send the file
just here?

[copper steppe]

what file?

the mod file?

[neat plaza]

the errorlog

[copper steppe]

is this right

[neat plaza]

that's
very
odd

because that's a proper log

[copper steppe]

maybe I copied the wrong link from the website, i dont think i did tho

[neat plaza]

maybe
try uploading it to the website again?

[copper steppe]

thats the one i sent, idk either

ok

[neat plaza]

yeah the smapi.io/log/a544 one is correct

[copper steppe]

yeah thats the one i sent here

[glacial briar]

Maybe try loading the game again to generate a new log

[copper steppe]

https://smapi.io/log/65f43eb8f3d144b09569c6686c1914c0

does this work?

[neat plaza]

yup

[copper steppe]

ok idk why it didnt before sorry about that

[neat plaza]

its seeing the mod

[copper steppe]

yeah, thats why im so puzzled

i have everything up to date too, I checked

[glacial briar]

Does it have a config?

[copper steppe]

yes, I read it through and everything seems like it should work, but idk

[glacial briar]

time to look at the code

[daring acorn]

Hi! My SDV keeps bugging out could u pls check out my log? Thank you!

https://smapi.io/log/00601e7474b34426bb0d7006c3ea0295

[copper steppe]

how do you mean?

[glacial briar]

Open up the json and see what it does

[copper steppe]

you mean opening it with notes, or what?

[glacial briar]

You didn't install almost anything correctly, at a guess.

Do you know what a zip is?

[glacial briar]

Sure, like notepad or any text reader

[daring acorn]

Oh

[daring acorn]

Yep

[glacial briar]

And did you unzip?

[daring acorn]

No.. Was i suppose to?

[glacial briar]

Did you read the instructions? 😄

!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

[copper steppe]

yes I did, its a very short code it just says

{
"WhichBear": "brown",
"UseSaddle": "false",
"ShowReins": "false",
"ChangeStable": "true",
"SkeletonForSpiritsEve": "true"
}

by the looks of it idk why it doesn't work

[glacial briar]

That's the config, not the code

[daring acorn]

Oooooh okokkoko tyytyytyt

[glacial briar]

Also, it's cute it has a costume 🙂

[copper steppe]

oh sorry, was the config json not the one to open?

[glacial briar]

there should be a content.json

[copper steppe]

oh ok ok

[glacial briar]

If you've previously had a tractor reskin work, you want to compare the two

Or any other graphic changing mods you have.

You don't need to copy all the code to here 😄

[copper steppe]

What should I be looking for in the code?

[glacial briar]

Takea look at this: https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Tutorial:_Replacing_an_Image

Then see what's in the mod's code

[daring acorn]

Ooooh wait if I uninstall and reinstall all the mods that wouldnt break my world in any way right?

[copper steppe]

I'm not amazing with this stuff but it seems to look right

theres some added variable ofc

[glacial briar]

Your mods technically aren't even installed right now. XD

[glacial briar]

And you do have a tractor? 😄

And no other mod changing the looks of the tractor?

[daring acorn]

ah 💀

[copper steppe]

I don't have a tractor mod?

[glacial briar]

And it's not a horse replacer?

[copper steppe]

oh

[glacial briar]

Is it horse or tractor?

[copper steppe]

um, I'm pretty sure it was a horse mod

"Bear Mounts is a Content Patcher mod which replaces the horse with a ride-able Bear. "

[glacial briar]

Okay, so you do have a horse and nothing else replacing the horse?

[copper steppe]

yes

[glacial briar]

Then I got nothing and that is very weird.

[copper steppe]

there is a mod that changes the look of the stable

Ah, well idk either, but ty for trying to help

[daring acorn]

was atleast smapi installed correctly?

Ah wait nvm im looking at the log it says 9 errors 💀

[glacial briar]

No, if you got a log you did successfully install smapi 🙂

[daring acorn]

the smapi.io log?

im so sorry t.t

[glacial briar]

Yep, that

[daring acorn]

ttytytytytytyty
