Redownload the mods!
i deleted the fireplace mod because that wouldnt work on my lasy save
you use vortex?
idk what that is
ah
Are you installing your mods through a mod manager?
i did manual download on nexus
ok nvm im just impatient ig it seems like its working okay now
Thanks
Looking for love and romanceable rasmonius conflict, so I disabled the looking for love 'date wizard' option, but I still get this yellow notification. [Content Patcher] SMAPI found an issue with 'Maps\WizardHouseBasement' map load: mod reordered the original tilesheets, which often causes crashes.
Sorry meant to space that better. Okay to just leave it?
If it's not crashing, it's ~fine
warning: if you for whatever reason start a multiplayer game and the farmhands crash in that location, this may be the cause
Thanks, I’ll keep both mods installed then.
does anybody know what mod the mushroom textures are from
Naver, probably 
I'm nearly sure it's not something on Nexus
I haven't found them 
I was looking for mushroom mods at one point
do you have a link to where you got the pic from?
i checked nexus and couldn’t find them unless i’m missing something, ive seen the person use 3 different foliage mods
yes, can i dm it to you?
sure!
Probably naver, judging from the Korean characters
anyone have any good mod suggstions?
Found them! They are from naver, here's the link https://cafe.naver.com/starvall/107831
im not exactly sure where those ones are from, but if you want something similar if you just search up "fairy" in the search bar for mods, it should show you a modpack with mushrooms.
Might as well download them for myself ^^
moonbow as that's a naver cafe link it is inaccessible to most people
is there a naver blog link for it, or is it cafe-only?
Ah, I'm sorry, do I need to delete the link or something, sorry if I caused any inconvenience
They are cafe only, sadly
you can leave the link there, but yeah it does absolutely nothing for the majority of people
My 11 yr old daughter, who came out as liking girls a while back, started playing again today after a 1 yr break and asked..is it possible to marry girls in SDV? "YES! You like anime and manga right?" "yes" "soo..Sophia!" Instant like!
A while later.."is it possible to adopt kids?" Her plan was to marry Sam, get a kid and then dump him for Sophia to be able to have a kid with her cause she didn't know about the adoption thing. LOL. My daughter's awesome! 😄 ❤️
Right, I'll take that into consideration for the next time, again I'm sorry
@haughty bear that's adorable!
anyone know why SMAPI does not automatically launch from steam for me? I have to click on its .exe file for it to launch
Did you set launch options?
bert celebrates
Why does it keep doing this??????
Sometimes the android installer will run and go back to the install screen like it didn't work. (It's been a long time since I've modded android though...) Check to see if you have a SMAPI app you can run. Will have a pufferchick icon.
I do but it just shows the normal icon
No cool looking pufferchick
Are you hitting the install button or the arrow at the bottom?
The only one that does have the puffer chick is the installer
But the smapi stardew valley doesn't
You'll end up with 3 icons. The SDV one, the smapi installer, and then smapi itself.
Are you hitting the install button or the arrow at the bottom?
Install
What happens if you hit the arrow?
It just tries to go into the smapi version of the game and immediately crashes
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
I also wonder if you launched SDV before trying to install SMAPI?
Where's the errorlogs??????
Is it somewhere else or something???
Like will it run on it's own?
Yes
I have a save there in year 2
Hmm SMAPI should be installed if you have that folder.
I just tried it and it worked for me. I had to set a bunch of permissions for file access though.
Normal stardew is working perfectly except for some slight lag but thats probably because most of my space on my tablet is being tooken up by other games
But smapi stardew crashes immediately
Okay. Definitely reach out to him. There is something weird going on with your install.
Huh okay
There are others having the same issue in the issues tab. Might be hardware related.
Maybe
Cause last time I used smapi was on a kindle fire tablet and it worked
But now I'm using a Samsung tablet and now I'm having issues
The only other thing I can suggest is trying a previous release. Some comments seem to also suggest that it is the latest installer that's broken.
Hello friends, I am in need of some help. My game no longer loads and the smapi message is confusing. I tried searching chat history here for it but I dont think I found the exact issue I am having when I load the game? Please help 
Could you take a screenshot of the smapi message?
yes of course!
I read it over 3 times trying to figure out what I need to do and its basically a foreign language to me right now xD
I searched through reddit too and tried one of the solutions someone suggested and it didnt work
!reinstalldeps
@leaden flame Try reinstalling .NET Framework 4.5.2 and XNA Framework 4.0 (see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_doesn.27t_launch for links).
Thank you!! I will try this now
It worked!! Thank you so much for your help and guidance 
im on my forth play trough i might get the tractor mod because i have a rlly big farming plot and its had to manually hoe it
the tractor wont affect much the vannilla game right?
Hi guys! Would anyone be able to confirm if I do indeed need to install .NET 5 to be able to run mods on my M1 MacBook? It's telling me I need it when trying to install the SMAPI beta version but I just want to make sure it's actually necessary and not me trying to do it wrong?
you will need .NET 5 for the beta, yes
right gotcha. it's only mentioned for Windows on https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_doesn.27t_launch for when the game doesn't launch so I was a bit confused
actually follow up on that. which one do I want? There are quite a lot of options here and all the terminal tells me is "You must have .NET 5 installed to use SMAPI" ? 😬 https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/5.0
.NET Runtime
the Desktop Runtime is a windows thing, the entire left side of the page is for developers, and ASP.NET Core is for people running websites/webservers
You don't use energy, and are invincible while on it, but for the most part its not very different. It's definitely helped me a ton
yea from what ive seen its also a bit hard to unlock so it might be a cool end game thing
and i pretty much have no time to manually hoe and water all the space i use for crops
Same. I usually have about 2000 crops planted at any time
The default cost is like 150k money, 5 iridium bars, 5 battery packs, and a whole bunch of iron, I think 50 bars
Or 5, I don't remember
wasnt it 15
eh i will get the mod next time i play thx
I've restarted just in case but I still get the same error when trying to install SMAPI?
okay thats. odd. you ran the .net 5 installer right?
command not found
yeah, that's what I thought. So I re-ran the install, which went fully meaning it didn't install the first time. And still the same thing. It looked like it installed fine, but command not found
maybe try downloading and installing it again and making doubly sure it's the mac version?
that's the one I downloaded https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/thank-you/runtime-5.0.12-macos-x64-installer and it most likely wouldn't have run if it wasn't for mac, right?
try installing the Core runtime as well in case that somehow fixes it
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
I'm gonna need help on that one since it doesn't have an installer?
I can get you logs but they will be from the not beta version of SMAPI when I was trying to figure out how to install it in general
https://smapi.io/log/7e86b14f61e94a2c992f24218583b874
whoops, read the Windows row instead of the Mac one. sorry, i dont know how to install the binaries, and i dont know enough about macs to figure out why the mac dotnet isnt working
so I am doomed to play with mods dramatic sigh 😂
it's okay don't worry. It just wasn't meant to be. But thank you so much for your help! 😄
@craggy creek in case you didn't see them, the wiki has instructions for installing it on mac https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Mac_Pictorial_Guide#Installing_.NET_5
I'd missed that sorry and was installing Runtime instead of SDK, but the same issue happens. It goes through the installer as shown on the screenshot, but the smapi installer still doesn't find it. And when I try to the the SDK installer, it goes through fully again as if it wasn't installed before
so, i'm trying to use Smapi 3.13 beta, and it says that i need .NET 5 x64, even though i do?
Never mind, it works now ; )
needed the desktop version of .net 5, not console.
aaand now it says the directory doesnt contain stardew executable....
how do you use mods in multiplayer?
Yea visuals are specific to who has them installed, but new items or maps, everyone should have installed
!mpmods
See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide#Do_mods_work_in_multiplayer.3F for details on how mods work in multiplayer. :)
how do i temporarily turn off mods?
if you just want to temporarily turn off 1 or a few mods, add . at the beginning of the folder name. Otherwise see below
.quote 5624
[#5624] "To play the game vanilla (with no mods) after you have installed mods, you have several options:
- You can launch the game directly by running StardewValley.exe rather than launching from Steam/SMAPI. You won't get achievements this way.
- You can remove the Steam launch options and then launch from Steam, but you have to remember to put back the launch options to play modded again. This way you'll still get achievements.
- You can create a modgroup with an empty Mods folder, and launch with that empty modgroup (you can name the folder
Mods (empty hehe), as an example). That way, you can still launch from Steam without changing launch options, and still get achievements. More details on how to create modgroups here:

Hey guys, If i am using a mod that change farm with a recolor mod, and i cant fill the pet bowl with water, theres a way to fix it?
.quote delete #5764
sorry boss but removing quotes requires manage message permissions. ask management to remove it. and be a jerk about it. trust me it works every time
interesting O:
Uber so mean >:(
The recolor mod you're using to change the farm, was it made or updated after Dec 20, 2020? If not, you may need to get rid of it and get a new mod. That's the date 1.5 was released and a lot of changes were made to how farms work
thanks!
Yes, its new recolor, project yellog (thanks for reply)
I thought Project Yellog only changes buildings?

Ok
Is ModDrop Client a recommended mod manager
No, no mod manager is recommended
It's modular. You can do only buildings or the complete pack which recolours the world too
.quote 5758
[#5758] "Vortex (Nexus) and Mod Drop both are mod managers that can help you keep your mods up to date. Unfortunately, both of them occasionally have issues with Stardew Valley mods, including but not limited to deleting files, mangling configs, and causing opaque errors. You can still use them, but if you run into issues and ask for help troubleshooting, the first piece of advice you’ll get is to stop using the mod manager, because it may obscure the real issue or be the cause of your issue.
If you want to stop using a mod manager, it's pretty easy to mod Stardew Valley manually! Just follow the instructions in this wiki page: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started" - @lament prairie (14 Nov 2021 @ 07:40:32 PM UTC)
Ooh, nice, we have a quote now
If you run into vortex issues, ping me
Kedi, don't knife the bot here too 
I started using it to find out about the bugs
https://smapi.io/log/fa336ca207bf4d1a81f1c09f85dec59f my log (it's says for me to update the project, but it's cause, the owner tried to fix the bowl, and she cant, thats why i am trying to find a fix, dont want to stop using her mod)
I'll gladly do it instead
Why can't the bowl be fixed?
You're using Grandpa's Farm, so I imagine that Project Yellog couldn't fix the bowl tilesheet they used? 
I'm pretty sure SVE has a separate pet bolw in it's files somewhere. At least it did the last time i updated my retexture
she tried to help me fix A LOT, at first we had a problem under the pet bowl, a glitch visual, then she fixed it, but now the bowl cant fill, she tried 2 times and said she dont know how to fix it.
yes, i guess
she said " i really don't have enough knowlege about this", she tried a lot to help me.
the petbowl is overwritten by grandpas farm with a petbowl without the wood flooring then the yellog project overwrites the petbowl again adding the flooring back
.quote delete 5764
Quote deleted.
yes, while we had the flooring back, my pet got stuck inside of the floor tile, then she fixed it, but now can't fill the pet bowl.
guess you added a map patch to add the flooring back and that may cause a mayhem quite easy. It's much better to try simpler option first. For example adding dependency in Grandpas farm to load after the yellogs so it's overwritting the petbowl. Or simply adding a condition in yellog to not edit the petbowl wneh grandpas farm mod is installed and save uses Standard map ( that's the map the mod replaces )
thank you, i will try it ❤️ !
no, cjb item spawner lets you
to the people who use dcburgers portraits: is there a way to use the portraits without portraiture?
im trying to cut down on my mods and i only use portraiture for dcburger, all the other dcburger-style mods are replacement versions

Hello! I'm new to mods and i recently added the ui info suite mod and it does not function properly on my end. I cannot press the bulletin board and whenever i try to place a scarecrow or something it seems to zoom in so much.
Hi! Are your zoom and UI scaling set to the same percent in Settings? If not, you can set them to be the same percent
Alternatively, you can get UI Info Suite 2 from Github, which is the supported updated version. You can get the link from the compatibility list below
!compat
See https://smapi.io/mods for a list of mods updated for the latest versions of SMAPI and Stardew Valley. :)
Thank you!! I'll try them now 🙂
Thank you for your help! It work perfectly fine now!
*works
Does someone have a list of mods they suggest?
So far I have the cheat mod, the item spawn mod, and a couple of furniture packs.
do apartments in zuzu work for you

does anyone know a mod on nexus that just makes the game look better thats it
Better is super subjective
also unclear what you mean by "the game"
there are retextures for just about everything
If you want recolors there’s vibrant pastoral recolor, daisy’s recolor for the ground/world
I’ll plug taiyo’s sunny crops
It looks pretty to me
just the textures look better like no gameplay changes
Yeah there’s a million of those
give me your favorite then
You can look up mods that depend on content patcher
but what are you trying to recolor? the map? buildings? items?
Though some of those will change things
just the building and the ground
ok then Elizabeth mentioned vibrant pastoral recolor and daisyniko's earthy recolor
I’m picky as hell so I don’t actually have a favorite lol
That’s why I mentioned two
for buildings, you can search for building mods on nexus and sort by downloads or endorsements, there are tons
hate to be rude but i kinda want something more noticeable
I think then you can just search the categories on nexus and see from there for something you like
like an environment recolor? or a building recolor?
ok thanks
but yeah, do what lenne said
environment
guys help just started using mods on my mac, now I can't open the app. Its just a black screen with the rainbow spinning cursor. I can't see any issues on the SMAPI log
how did you start the game
through steam
is your mac an m1?
yes the new air one
then you have to use rosetta or use the beta 1.5.5, let me see if I can get you a link quickly
like tell me how you opened smapi
This is how to switch to the beta https://www.patreon.com/posts/55035968
what mods are u using
i wanted to try s.d expanded so i followed all the instructions for that
but I do have some other just recolours that I thought were cute
what recolors
project yellog has pretty good recolors
as well as starblue
and wittily named recolor
im just deleting and trying again with the beta
good luck
thanku lovelyt
thanks i like it
i will most likely be back
lol i just understand why its called SMAPI
every time i change the manifest of a mod, a new thing called a bak file? i just wanna make sure im not messing anything up
notepad++
im using it to disable custom music and custom companions
i never use those mods and i need to trim down my mods to take up less space
Probably it’s a backup file??
is that inside a different mod that you want to use
Idk anything about notepad++ though
same
As long as you still have manifest.json you should be fine
SC update 😳
ayo
guys are there any good mods for vanilla sdv
I really recommend these:
Lookup anything, event lookup, npc map locations, simple crop label, faster path speed, data layers, magicscepter, billboard anywhere. Maybe chests anywhere balanced version
I think you were asking for faster animations? https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1089
Or you could learn about animation cancelling @compact hound
yeah something like animation cancelling
You can already do that in vanilla without mods
Does anyone know what could be causing this?
not really, what mods you using
well... until someone else replies, you can just remove mods until it works and then add them back. maybe like 3 mods at a time or so
!log can you share your log per the link below? and what screen is that?
@frozen pilot Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
At first I thought it was CJB Cheats Menu but idk
i think it's just the social tab
Follow the link and look up siv's marriage mod, like the error says o:
I did
Also there is the log
and what did you find?
I redownloaded the mod but I get the same error
Are you sure you checked the link in the error and not the mod page?
it's just outdated i think
Should we go into cindersap-forset vc to make this easyir?
I don't do voice chat, here's fine!
ok
what screen are you looking at here? Is this from CJB Cheats Menu?
so... remove that mod
Yes
but if I go to talk to them they have that wierd name

Yes, the second one specifically
But definitely read the first to understand why xnb mods will break your game
ok
any idea why this mod isn't working? there are no smapi errors whatsoever so i have no idea what could be wrong https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2604?tab=posts
That mod is outdated. An updated version is listed in the comments
sorry i meant this one 😂😂 https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10107?tab=files
I would reset my game files and then update my mods to see what gets fixed.
i was comparing the codes
How do i reset the game files?
I can't ping or even type your name, but sharing your log will help!

is there a mod anywhere that turns pineapples into durians?
So, Smapi says it cant find the game directory
and when i input it manually, it says the executable isnt ther
there is not that i know of, but i'm fairly sure there is a mod that adds durians as their own fruit tree
nevermind, fixed
!ppja might be it
Project Populate Json Assets (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1935) is a collection of content packs for Json Assets that add new crops, flowers, trees, and recipes. (Also see https://mouseypounds.github.io/ppja-ref/ for a collection of references for PPJA and associated packs.)
i found that one, just wanted to add a few visual mods before i begin my modded world
i am back regarding my lag issue. i moved all of my mods out of my mods folder and made a test save and i was still getting small yet noticable spikes in lag. it wasn't lagging when i first moved to the 64 bit beta so would deleting and reinstalling the game help?
dealing with other issues atm so i won't see replies right away
Maybe, but that sounds like it might be a hardware issue?
is there some command or mod that removes added modded items from the game?
I think you would just delete the mod. I don't know of anything that would delete one item specifically.
If you have modded items in your chest / inventory and don't want the mod, just load up a day, delete / sell it all, save, and then remove the mod
Otherwise it will fuck things up
like placed items
I doubt it's a hardware issue. I play several other games and they don't lag at all.
I would try a reinstall then and try to run it without any mods, just SMAPI.
Break the placed item, and delete / sell it, the same concept applies
Also destroy any modded crops you have planted!
wah okay thank you
Modded crops don't disappear when they're deleted. They turn invisible and if you harvest them you get error items which are completely useless.
Ah I see
Oops i didn't mean to reply to you!
I haven't used modded crops in over a year so I forgot about that
I've had a similar issue on an old computer but the entire system was lagging. And it turns out the operating system corruoted. Could my lag have been caused by a corruoted file or save or something?
I mean, it could be anything. If you pull up the task manager, is anything being resource intensive?
No. If opera is open then yes.
is there a way to make the terminal window generated by SMAPI not disappear once the game starts?
Not to my knowledge. If you close it then the game closes.
no
Mac computer? I seem to recall there being an issue with M1 mac stuff (Greek to me, so I have no idea). Will search and see if I can find those conversations again.
oh well, at least I tried ;-;
Windows actually.
Oh
Ill try it withoit the beta -_-
The beta could be causing it due to still being, well, a beta
If it ends up that the beta is the culprit, I would definitely report that somewhere, like SMAPI's github, because the whole point of the beta is to create a 64-bit version of the game that doesn't have RAM restrictions
Can i have a link to the github? Just in case.
theres actually something similar that happened to someone before, its not a SMAPI issue
let me see if i can find the messages
I have 8gbs of ram so lag should not be occuring.
what are you doing when lag occurs?
8GBs is kind of low if you have Windows 10 actually. However, with the non-beta version, the game cannot use more than 3GB period, regardless of the machine.
Walking around. I have a massive lag spike when swinging my scythe the first time after loading.
just the scythe?
does something happen with, say, a sword?
and this is with SMAPI but no mods?
or without SMAPI
It's a test save. I don't have a sword. And it's just smapi without mods.
I ask about swords b/c swords and scythes share quite a bit of code
that was all
debug fin galaxy will get you a galaxy sword
does this happen with that?
#archived-modded-support message you can also try what kamalei instructed here if you have a nvidia GPU
Oh, and are you an ARM or Intel processor?
I run Windows 11. And compared to my last computer the ram amount is decent. I play other games like roblox, minecraft, slime rancher, sims and NONE of those lag. Combined with optimisations i made they run smoothly. And stardew is the only one acting up. And that's without mods.
Do you have a graphics card, and if so, which?
Nvidia gtx 1060 3gb
Intel i5-8400
Hum. Yeah, I think you're probably best off making a bug report about this
It's a 3 year old refurbished computer and it runs as smoothly as the day i got it.
Figured you'd say that.
Sorry
Well, it depends on how much each game relies on different computer parts for processing and such. Like I play FFXIV on my desktop at full graphics with no issue at all and SDV lags for me sometimes too even without mods.
Comparing different games' performances can be like apples to oranges.
Well considering the fact i've slapped 100GB in cc and mods onto the sims 4 and it doesn't lag at all. I thought sims would be worse.
Someone also blamed the fact that it onky uses one thread.
Bruh. If that was the issue then why was i able to play lag free for a while?
Hey guys, does everyone have to have a mod downloaded "Unlimited Players" If i read correctly i think it said you don't but still when one of our players who isn't the host so hasn't downloaded the modded stardew cannot seem to join still.

ok so whenever i try load my modded file sdv crashes
im pretty sure ik where the issue lies
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
where do you think it lies?
that just launches through SMAPI
ye, but im like 80% sure thats where its going wrong
well, if you're not launching through SMAPI, you won't be running mods
You're missing an end piece of the launch options
The %command% ?
%command% needs to be after the path
yeah i figured something was off, thanks yall
It worked! appreciate it

it's not a complicated game Intel can handle it
If I run it on Intel, I lag horribly
I don't have issues with lagging other than when the game needs to pull a lot off of disk. Which, honestly, is just DSV's sprite reloading, I think.
I see
I've taken my game out of tbe beta but i haven't reinstalled smapi yet. The lag is completely gone.
Which mods were you running
I just mostly wanted to know if your problem was SMAPI, the game, and whether or not the beta affected that 😛
You're talking to me?
Imma go download smapi and test that.
Multiple users were having the same issues you're having and for some my quotes fixed it
Using the GPU if you have one is probably better, yeah
You can also try disabling windows animations and all background apps in Windows settings. Also helped me :}
Done it.
Also. I don't know what i did but disabling vsync doesn't cause screen tearing anymore
Unless that's because i'm in vanilla
Ohhh nice! I'm assuming you already tried the switching to windowed borderless > windowed > fullscreen
If you can't find the fullscreen option in that order, try windowed > windowed borderless, usually it appears in the list if you do either of those in that order
Switch to*
I don't think my fps is capped anymore, it goes up to 62
I forgot to uncap it on smapi. 😑
Oh I know it can. I just have none of the options that Nvidia has in case I want to try to optimize it
Can someone help me here, I'm trying to install the mod loader "SMAPI" in "Arch linux", but it asks for momo but momo is not compatible with arch linux how do I install it?
Thanks, I wasn't finding the "aur"
I've gone through all the steps on the troubleshooting guide, but whenever I try to launch through Vortex I ge the "SMAPI can't find the game" error. I've checked to make sure the smapi.exe is where it should be (seems to be?); I've uninstalled and reinstalled stardew and smapi. Running on windows, 1.5.4, and I've got the log if needed (everything was working fine yesterday)
I can't help troubleshoot Vortex, but I can tell you to not use it because Vortex does not play nice with Stardew
ah
Manual modding with Stardew is incredibly easy though
You just install Smapi, copy and paste the command prompt it gives you into your Steam launch options, download your mods, unzip, throw them in the Mods folder that Sampi created
The only reason I'd used vortex was for updating the mods easier; I did it once manually before, but it became a nightmare to keep on top of all the changes to each individual mod - is there something non-vortex that can help that?
Mod update menu
You would still update them manually which is the best thing to do since mod managers cause errors.
But Mod Update Menu will have a menu for easily checking what you need to update when you start the game with links if they exist.
Smapi does let you know which mods need updating, and provides links to them. To make the link clickable, I tend to just have Nexus open and then search via editing the numbers, just upload your log
Yeah, I just hate dealing with the forced scrolling of SMAPI or making a log every time I start the game. If I see MUM has a mark on it, I can go see what it's about then.
I don't update every time I start the game
I figure that it's a video game, not, like, my antivirus
I do so it's easier for me.
Oh, you can easily stop the auto scrolling
I've also had stupid problems happen caused by mid-game updates
(like mods suddenly adding new items when they didn't have items before, causing an unexpected json shuffle)
Click on your Smapi console's text, it pauses it ( And pauses loading the game ) so you can scroll up to read. To unpause it, just hit enter
So now I wait to update.
Yeah, I would probably wait too if I used JA stuff. Most of my mods are recolors though.
I wasn't sure how to make it workable so I've just wiped everything from the mods folder and reinstalled smapi and stardew again; gonna try manually and see how it works, but it seems a little better this time at least (or, no errors yet)
Are there any mods that let me change from mushrooms to fruits?
which farm cave redux on moddrop i think?
it's also one of the easier things to edit on a save.
(delete event id 65, delete the mushroom boxes if you want them actually gone)
Seems complicated
but thx
Just so I don't create another massive mess for myself, do I want to unzip the mods I download directly into the stardew Mods folder, or do I want to unzip them and then copy/paste the contents?
I usually unzip straight into the folder
Some have specific install instructions, so follow that, but otherwise...
It depends on what you want to do. I usually just keep a folder on my desktop for unzipping in, and then just dragging and dropping the mods over, so I can easily clean up any ReadMe files or custom NPC portrait replacers
Yeah, looking into the mod folder to do some cleanup is sometimes very useful...cough looking through for unexpected items cough
anyone know a mod that allows the short grass to be removed?
there're mods that let you plant on the short grass
off the top of my head the one i know of is crops anywhere anytime, but there are more
Wich time of the year does he ask u?
Does he ask u to switch cave types every spring?
Uh I noticed that the gift helper mod doesn’t show accurate gift preferences
It shows the list for other npcs
the gift helper mod is outdated, youre better off using Lookup Anything
Ok thanks
Anyone know what causes each npc to showup twice on the map?
you have two mods that do the same thing
In the settings of one, turn off that feature
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
Does tehs fishing overhaul change anything by itself or do I need a config
Is anyone else having issues logging into ModDrop or am I just having one of those days?
so realized today that debug commands aren't working with new smapi and chat commands?
get a nice try message
same
The other commands work, like world_clear
but not debug
ModDrop is finally working. I guess the website had a hiccup.
i cant find eemie's classy furniture and map recolor mods
as a matter of fact the debug commands aren't working in smapi console either
do you have them installed?
They're on moddrop
Minervamaga maintains a lot of Eemie's mods.
there hasnt been a smapi update since october if im not wrong, what do you mean by new smapi?
ive never actually used the mod, i just know of it, but i think that's right. the mod description should tell you
The mod is called ConsoleCommands
And comes automatically with the SMAPI installation
So if you're missing then
Them*
Redownload and install SMAPI
Are you using / before the command in the in-game chat?
THATS NOT GOOD
i don't see the crash in your log, is it possible that another program on your computer is interfering with sdv?
do you have anything like rivatuner or msi afterburner?
tyty
813!
nope
hey quick question with stardew valley expanded, does just the host of an online game need it for everything to work or does everyone need it?
everyone needs it
ok, thanks
question
with the console commands mod
is there a command to clear out the farm?
i want to spend a day 1 with time frozen and destroy everything
i hate starting with clutter everywhere and i just want to get rid of it, but get the resources
Reset Terrain Feature can do it too, but also won't give you the resources... don't think anything would
Maybe spawning in the tractor from the tractor mod?
Probably not, can change the price to build it in the config though
I find clearing the farm to be peaceful
especially with the tractor. Very satisfying
hey :O i have a bunch of children -> npc mods downloaded for sve, now my kid's grown to walking stage so how do i get it to work? (i know this is a really silly question but im not good at mods ;w;
are you using Child to NPC? Unfortunately it's quite buggy, but I think it happens after the kid has been at the walking stage for a specific number of days. The mod description would probably specify
i have eemie's classy furniture interior on
and
its broken asf
its not even recoloring most of the stuff
Was it updated on or after Dec 20, 2020? If not, that's why. It wasn't updated for 1.5
Which changed a lot about furniture
ahhh that would make sense
well are there any interior redesign mods that are compatible with 1.5?
I can't think of one offhand, but it may be worth it to look at Alternative Textures and mods that require it
okayy
industrial furniture and idaida's furniture are 2 that i believe are updated for 1.5
i am! the mod description is unfortunately really vague but thank you for your response :) /g
can u possibly share me a link to those mods?
you can search by mod author on nexus, their username there I think is DustBeauty with no space
okay tyty
okay thank u
Hey kids, removed and reinstalled all my mods, and there's one I can't seem to find anymore. I just don't remember the name. What it did was put an icon on the tooltip of items. A chest if it hasn't been shipped yet, another icon if it was part of a bundle, and so on. Anyone know what mod that is?
Thanks, I had saved my old mods as a list, and didn't realize that the "2" at the end was a different mod.
what in the fuck is going on 😭
iirc that is exactly what it's supposed to look like lol
Looks like the furniture got stuck in the kitchen from where you upgraded it. Happens even with a vanilla house
whys it all uncoherent and fucked up tho 😭
like
huh im so confused
wait
ok i think im figuring it out
Omg thanks for noticing that, I was focused on the room colors lol
I usually have trees inside furniture when I use that farmhouse.
Like, walls and floors
i didnt upgrade the house tho
That's the base house for that mod
And it always starts out with the furniture messed up.
And if you added it to an existing save, yeah
It makes more sense once you upgrade the house
(I stopped using it to go back to vanilla)
I missed having the little cozy starter home with nothing in it.
One more question. Apparently I have a massive mod list this time (it's a problem for all of us, I'm sure) So many, that there's a 30-60 second delay when starting up the game now. Anything I can do short of deleting mods to help speed that up?
That's a very small delay in comparison to what others have.
I'll try harder next time lol.
The biggest culprits will usually be expansion mods though.
Yeah, I added ridgeside and scarpe this time around and I'm very sure they are the culprit. Sounds like there's no way around it though, thanks.
Do you have ppja stuff too?
No ppja
Okie, that's usually another.
Also are you on the beta? That can speed it up a bit
I actually switched to beta just to see if it would speed it up, but it seems about the same. It's totally worth it for mods though. so I'll just see how long I can get the load time to go next time around 😛
Sorry I didn't mean that as a challenge 😂
ok so it changes the interior of the house
but isnt it supposed to change the furniture aswell??
There are recommendations for furniture, floors, and walls in the description.
is there anyway to make a popup when you launch the game (like in the attachment) which gives the option between for example with mods or without mods? so an option to switch between different launch options?
You could use the different icons in your Stardew Valley folder. And even shortcut them to your desktop.
You'll have one for SDV itself which will launch the game without mods and then another for SMAPI, which launches with them.
Are scarecrows considered furniture or do they fall under a different category?
BigCraftable
does anyone know of a mod for signposts? like ones that you can put custom text on
Thank you! I was having trouble finding an overwrite issue.
One I have Pokefy and the flying bugs aren't appearing as beedrill, anyone else have that issue?
i gotta say it, Vietnam must've been tough for you
https://smapi.io/log/1b7d69f1900b4888b5a8bf6f0319e2d2
been getting some strange errors. i don't know how to describe thewm because i've never seen them
all i can say is that it camr up with an error regarding the registry editor. i fixed that but then got those errors
What companion mods do y’all recommend for sve
All I know is a lot of people recommend against sve
@livid hamlet It looks like that coin collecting mod requires stardew beta and beta SMAPI
Maybe some others in the list too, since a lot of them are saying they're looking for .net 5.0
i just got out of the beta because of lag so maybe.
take a look at your log file, and any mod that gives the error about "'System.Runtime, Version=5.0.0.0" either needs removed or downgraded to the non-beta version.
There are several listed in the SVE mod description, so that may be a good place to start! The SVE server would be a good place to ask as well
Fixed.
All that's left are some smaller errors. They don't cause major issues so i tend to ignore them.
Thanks
Hey quick question. Is SVE compatible with Get Glam?
They don't have any overlap in code afaik so I don't see why not o.o?
But Get Glam has its quirks
ITS A JOKE LENNE. Sorry 
so my game is running super slow and some stuff isnt loading properly
i know ill probably need to cut some mods so does anyone have any suggestions for what i should cut
im going to cut walk to the desert and probably some bfav animals but im not sure about what else i should cut
https://smapi.io/log/6a6137f912454fc0ae3cf4918b61e653
OK GOOD BECAUSE I THOUGHT YOU OUGHT TO KNOW BETTER O~O
LMAO
Yes i know a lot of stuff 👉👈😳 Just joking because i saw a lot of sve questions KAJSKAKSK
I also need help with my game lagging a lot too :(
Content Patcher Animations mods have been known to cause a lot of lag. If you're having issues loading, expansion mods will be the biggest detriment there, like SVE, RSV, DTZ, ES, etc. A lot of that comes from things using Pytk. If that doesn't fix it, consider cutting back on mods that add items to the game.
It all comes down to what you feel you absolutely must have and how much performance you're willing to sacrifice. You can also consider moving to the beta which will free up RAM usage, but I would back up my mods and save files so you can easily switch back if you want to.
if i just delete the cp animations, do i have to go into each manifest file and turn off the dependencies?
I don't think the mods will work?
I don't know if you turn off the dependencies if they will just load the one texture for the file or if they just won't work altogether. 
I just know I used to use a ton of CPA mods and my fps would tank every few seconds. It was intolerable.
Or my game would just freeze and I would teleport across the map when it got done processing.
:|
leaves everyone a cup of hot cocoa and runs off
idk if its a mod or not but everynight when i sleep it tells me all my level ups when i have already leveled up to that forever ago and sen it forever ago but it never goes away
do you have the prestige mod?
these are the mods
no
notsure then
Yes and i even typed it in the smapi console without slaash and nothing showed up for debug said not a valid command or whatever
little embarrased to say I think i figured it out. i had deleted the mod directory troubleshooting my issues and i think smapi default installs a console commands mod which i nuked XD
Are mods worth adding to stardew valley?
Yes.
Is it a pain to add them to the game?
not really

I think I’m having issues where smapi downloads in my files
It only has the installer
So,, with multiple spouse mod is there a limit to wives and kids, or can I create an army?
https://smapi.io/log/ae4ee8834df0427f8f6b61b9c0d7333b

I think there's technically a limit? But I personally haven't found it yet, but be warned, they might teleport into a wall

@slender pike OutOfMemoryException errors on Windows mean that your game ran out of memory. The game only has access to a small part of your computer's memory by default. See this page for more info and common fixes: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#OutOfMemoryException_errors_.28Windows_only.29.
The beta fixes that but it is the beta.
ill just delete some mods and see which of the remaining mods i play the most
that way ill know which ones i actually want
Yeah it might be a good idea to really start testing some of them out to eliminate stuff that might not really add to your enjoyment that much.
i always get such a bad case of fomo so i end up overloading my computer and then playing the exact same playthru everytime lmao
I know the feeling
even just forcing myself to make a decision cut it down from 520 to 445 mods
so im gonna go sleep on it and then come back tomorrow to delete more mods
Thanks, good to know I’ll attempt to break the engine or have my children gain warping abilities.
I barely have over 100 mods I believe
That's about where I am.
I may add a few more once I get to end game for decorating.
And maybe some crops if I really want them for aesthetic.
(Like Eemie's Melons
)
I love those so much
Lmao I love planting crops in farming games
The animals are fine but there's just something I love about slowly transforming a barren wasteland into a huge field full of crops
Me too. I would probably like the animals more if I could fine a cute mod pack that replaced them all with textures that match my set up for everything else. Usually I can only fine like chickens or cats and nothing else matches. 😦
I'm using all of the Elle replacements for consistency, but I'm not a huge fan of the style.
I need like.. this style for all the animals https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8253
Either than or I'll just have a farm full of chickens and rabbits since those are the only ones of that person's mods that I would use.
I’m very very sorry for interrupting the conversation but I’m trying to update smapi through ModDrop and it’s driving me crazy, and before I do something dumb, is there a way to fix this?
Can you try from smapi.io?
There is a direct link on the first page.
(If you're using Moddrop's mod manager, I would recommend not using a mod manager at all.)
Aw, I wonder why. And I’ll try from smapi. io
Mod managers seem to not play well with SDV mods. Vortex from Nexus will straight up eat files out of the mods, particularly manifest.json files.
SDV mods tend to be finicky too with a whole bunch of weird ways of installing them and sometimes with missing requirements.
While it's a bit of a pain to start, manually installing your mods and learning the intricacies of that will serve you well in the long run.
Ah, okie. I’ll give that a try and see how it goes. Now for SMAPI, should I download the 3.13 beta or 3.12?
It kind of depends. If you use a lot of mods, go for the beta 100% to eliminate OOM errors. If you don't want to risk any weird problems though, you can stick to 3.12 until the next patch releases.
The beta is really stable at this point though.
Mod loaders like to screw up mod updates too. Either by forcing the beta update on none beta players, or grabbing the wrong version and calling it the update
(The beta applies to the beta of SDV which you can enable in your launcher (Steam).)
Okie dokie. I’ll play it safe and go for 3.12 for now. I’m still kinda new to modding.
I think I remember having that kind of trouble in ModDrop. I’ll make sure not to use it again
I appreciate the help, May! (s’that ok if I call you that? c:)
Oh! One last question, do a direct download, not from nexus?
Either way
Gotcha
Also, I try to refrain from pinging members if it’s not urgent but now that I have permission to ping you, I’ll remember that next time, haha!
😂😂
Don’t worry! I won’t be pinging you constantly
I just noticed, I probably don’t even have to download the 3.13 beta anyways, because I don’t think I have the game beta
Yeah, definitely not
it's quite possible that moddrop was trying to download and install the 3.13 beta
which would obviously fail to find the beta stardew executable, because you had the non-beta stardew executable
what are some useful client side mods
!modrecs
Check out https://gist.github.com/Pathoschild/b608892d3e60bd25d0eea71ca7584649 for a list of mods recommended by Pathoschild! They're all compatible with the latest versions of SMAPI and Stardew Valley on Linux/Mac/Windows.
Personally I think TimeSpeed because I always found the day went way too quick. You can change the length of time in the config and also use hotkeys in game. More of a ‘cheat’ mod though
client side as in ones that work in multiplayer without the host having it
stuff like npcs on the map
I thought timespeed did?
Guess not
Then the birthday mod. You set a birthday and npcs give you gifts etc
It cute and a nice way to get food early on for the mines
that wouldn't work either
will mod work if they are put inside another folder in the mods folder?
!mpmods
See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide#Do_mods_work_in_multiplayer.3F for details on how mods work in multiplayer. :)
yes
thanks
I’ve used it in multiplayer when others didn’t have it
Is that not client side?
it is
just really doesn't seem like it should work lol
It did somehow lol, was a while ago though so no idea what updates have been done to it now
im getting a bug
when i open menus like stores and stuff the text appears as a pathname instead of what its supposed to say
can anybody help
I just installed these mods and my game is lagging and freezing a lot. Can you guys tell which could be the culprit?
Better junimos
Better shop menu
Bigger Backpack
Helpful spouse
Hot cocoa shop
Joja clearance bin
Jump over
Legendary weapons
Movement speed
Mushroom propagator
No soil decay on farm
Prismatic tools
Purchasable clay
Rush orders
Tree transplant
Winter grass
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
hey guys, i just downloaded the mod for slowing time, am i right in downloading SMAPI? or is there something else i should use ?
yeah, SMAPI is needed for all mods basically
Smapi is the mod loader
sweet
obligatorily necessary :0
😊
getting this error when trying to parse
hm, i've had that null error sometimes and it seems to happen when there are null characters in the log file. i'm not sure how to remove them on except linux. maybe try launching the game again to see if the new log uploads correctly
I'm on linux
ah, let me find it
should I send you the txt file?
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2398393/identifying-and-removing-null-characters-in-unix here's the method i've used in the first answer

Oof I know the feeling.
I like elles replacements but I'd like something like the harvest moon animals more.....
Haha it happens, glad you got it worked out!
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/348 maybe something like this? they have a whole "cuter" series of livestock!
Ughhhhh as soon as i fix one issue another comes up. This time smapi vomits and has an oit of memory error when trying to create a fresh save.

Hi, I just installed SMAPi, now that its installed ive loaded my game and none of the key bindings to activate the mods are working, can anyone help please? ((im trying to add the time slow mod)
Hi yall does anyone know what to do with the farmcave.tbin in the hot springs farm cave
Yes and yes!
depends on the mods you have
guys, i am on M1 and using beta because multiplayer only works in beta but SMAPI is asking for exe file location when i install
what should i put in there
?
its asking for the location of your game
yes

The SMAPI beta folder doesn't contain an exe file and I'm unsure how to install it
it says to click the .bat.
guys, any help with configuring smapi, how do I slow down time etc... once it's installed
you need mods for that girlie
which mods
go to nexusmods and find what youre looking for with the search bar
ive gone to time speed mod on nexus and it just tells me to install smapi?
which ive done
I do, a black window flashes for half a sec and then nothing
just for smapi
Control the flow of time in the game: speed it up, slow it down, or freeze it altogether. This can happen automatically or when you press a key in the game.
Is this the first time you've downloaded a mod from Nexus? You need an account, then go to the Files section and click download
ive made an account but csnt find the dl link for time speed
thats the console window. what ver of sdv are you on? the beta?
lula lenne just told u
On the mod page you just linked, go to Files
yes, i just updated to the beta
I did
/Users/shlokrathod/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOS
That directory doesn't contain a Stardew Valley executable.
see it dosent work

ok got it, now where do i put the time spped folder? just in the mods section?
yes
when i installed it before this was the path
then run as normal and it should work?
This is the zip file. Did you extract first, then run the bat file?
It was a valiant effort, Lani 👋
relax bro.. this is a chat for some help, im new just looking for a helping hand
im disabled sorry
No, I've always updated SMAPI straight from the rar file, didn't need to extract before
Idk how you managed it but the instructions that Lani linked say you're supposed to extract it first.
If anything, I've only seen people have problems when they didn't extract first
Maybe it's different with exe files! Now it says I miss Desktop 64 dotnet (omw)

Did everything work out, or do you have another question?
And now, it's starting
OMG, LOADING TIMES REDUCED FROM 14 MINUTES TO 1,5 MINUTES
what sorcery is this!
I experienced a similar crazy difference the first time I booted up the beta... Then I updated my mods and it's about the same 🤣
But performance during the game is definitely far more improved for me
Mine was 5min tops though, before and after the beta
Lucky! My pc is 7 years old and with the rona pc parts prices have skyrocketed so I'm stuck for a while
Good, because the lagging during walking in town or esp. the Volcano was getting a bit much
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
halfway there!
in order to use better junimos forestry, does anyone know if the smapi beta version or the version 2 should be used?
Better Junimos Forestry says it requires the beta version of Better Junimos. That one doesn't say it requires beta SMAPI
how do i start using mods? do i have to make a mods folder in my sdv folder?
where do i put the smapi thingy
I've been using mods on my pc with one farm dedicated to functioning with mods. I travel for work so I usually bring my laptop but play without mods. The files were contradicting themselves by not updating over steam. Anything I can do to fix this?
Check the pinned message and follow wiki instructions
!gettingstarted
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
The save files were contradicting?
Or the mod files?
Save files
So it wasn't synced properly?
Yea
oooh thank you!!
Steam asked if I want to download latest file from cloud but the files didn't update after
It might be that they didn't update before you turned off the other computer.
I would make sure that I had the cloud feature turned on for both computers first.
Just to be sure
If it's not working well though, you can also opt to turn that feature off and manually transfer your files. That way, you at least know that you have the latest version.
Does recolor mods like vibrant pastoral recolor , consume a lot of system resource?
i think that kind of mods mainly consume ram, or add to load times (during game start and/or screen transitions typically)
Not as much as some other mods.
which mods consume the most ram and processing power?
My game lags (events are fine) while opening menus/running around the town. SMAPI logs shows LoveofCooking constantly removing "malformed recipes"
anyone knows what is happening?
Expansions, json assets, and animations.
PFMAutomate seems to commonly cause stutter as well (probably when you have a lot of modded machines)
for the recipes maybe a problem with the DGA version of farmer to florist
and what can I do?
my game hates me. i reinstalled the beta because of out of memory errors and now my lag has magically vanished.
fml.
where do i send smapi bug reports again?
i'd switch to the JA version
dga rn SUCKS i say don't ditch ja for now.#
i tried ditching ja but artisan valley was NOT having it
heyyyy! hi, folks! does anyone know where to get the immersive farm 2 remastered mod?
stardew valley expanded comes with it
just be careful when you download it because there's a beta file for 1.5.5
ohww! thank you, I'll be careful!
does anyone here use these mods? since they got deleted off nexusmods, i got them from chucklefish forums. the maru-penny mod seems fine so far, but i'm encountering a bug for the sam-sebastian mod. what happens is that the mod's third event repeats and i can never get the fourth event to trigger, even tho i got all the requirements already. is there a fix to this?

is it possible to change the farm that immersive farm 2 replaces?
no. it's always replaced the standard layout for me
thanks again!
I have a question about farmer to florist. It was ported to dynamic game assets. I have the mods dependencies installed and wanted to update farmer to florist. So i do it and it loads but when in game the flowers that i had planted and the seeds in my chest disappeared and when looking for them in the spawn cheat they are not there. Is there anything else i have to do? Its been doing that since i updated to DGA port
Oof, I don't think you can switch on a current save. As you found, the items were added through a different framework
The items aren't showing up in CJB Item Spawner either?
Nope
Hey, I was just wondering how to install mods
do I just copy the folders into my mod folder
or do some require their files to be in the main directory for the game

@dire fractal If you would like a guide to setting up mods for Stardew Valley, check out the getting started guide! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide
thank you
Ya know, I’m wondering at this point if i should just make my own wizard portrait, because I’m annoyed there aren’t enough sprite variants 😫
That's always an option
im really confused I followed the wiki and started my game but none of the mods are working
you need to set the steam launch option to smapi
oh ok thanks
np
is there any mods that make it so i can get animals on Ginger Island?
Also, anybody know a good dialogue expansion pack?
There are lots, Canon Friendly Dialog Expansion on nexus is a good one to start with because it covers most if not all vanilla NPCs
when i have mods downloaded, how do i start the save but without mods? hosting for a friend and their game is breaking bc they don't have mods downloaded
I assumed you start the game without smapi
Add a . to the start of the name of your mods folders
So rename it .Mods when you want to play without mods
when you want to play with mods again, remove the dot
cool thanks!!
anything that's not the word "Mods" will work. "Mods - backup" "Mods - unused" "Mods - SVE SAVES ONLY" will never be run, for example. (This is useful if you want to have different groups of mods)
i downloaded hippos farm cave variety but it isnt showing up in game
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
i only have the one
and then one that spawns things into it. theyre supposed to work together, according to the author
np!
K guys I’m so confused lol
So I’m starting RSV, and I was confused af by the fact that Lewis’s sister was a totally different race
I know it’s because of DSV, but I’m just wondering how I change it to their original portraits
You can set DSV sprites to vanilla
Either that, or pretend they're both mixed race and one just looks more white. Which, realistically, does happen.
I guess so. It’s just, his sis looks totally different lol.
How do you set them to vanilla tho?
go to config.json
and set that person to "vanilla"
or, if you have the generic mod config editor installed, you can use that too
I don’t mind, of course, but I wanted to play the vanilla version of it first
@fair frigate You leveled up to Cowpoke. You can now speak in our voice channels and share images in all channels!
Yay
I think I have that
does anyone know of any good mods for the farm cave that simply make it bigger? hippos fcv isnt really working for me
i'm playing modded mp with a few friends and our game crashed overnight, here's the smapi log https://smapi.io/log/0cb2cb3c93194456949007f3618492ed
can anyone tell me why it crashed?

that makes a lot of sense
