[rain edge]

after that i need to figure out how to move the warp point

for sdve's nexus stuff

[valid girder]

awh big F for my game, installing DaisyNiko's Earthy Recolour made my game stutter a whole lot more again so had to delete it, but now the stutter is more frequent again lmao, unlucky

[rain edge]

maybe its pc issues?

[valid girder]

there is one other thing I want to try yeah, and thats installing all the mods on my second pc with my old hardware, see how it will run there and if I get stutters there. Though one of my friends who also plays modded, has the same problem with the stutters

it's really odd.. never had this before till recently also played modded before the update, and there were no problems then

[naive drum]

note that content patcher animations is known to currently be very laggy

[valid girder]

yeah i removed that one again

I think it happened after the latest Stardew update and SMAPI update with that

considering running Stardew without SMAPI has no stutter, and with SMAPI and no mods gives the stutter

[naive drum]

should probably ping pathoschild about that, sounds like something he'd want to know

[valid girder]

fair shout, he doesnt seem to be online right now but should I just post it here and tag him for when he comes online?

[rain edge]

oh god how do you move a warp point

[glad relic]

I just reinstalled all of my mods but now the menu on game homescreen isn't showing up 😦

[rain edge]

this warp point

when i used the map editor it didnt work

[static coral]

nah I'm creating a new save file and just give me my progress back with cjb cheats menu/item spawner
Good enough for my purposes

[naive drum]

Sounds like either mod update menu or generic mod config menu got missed

[naive drum]

I think those are built into the map? Like, in tioed

Tiled

[naive drum]

Yeah

[rain edge]

I don't know how to grab their respective xnb file though

To edit

[naive drum]

He will probably want your computer specs

Sel it'll be a tmx or tbin file in the mkds assets folder

[rain edge]

Theres a tmx file

But i dont see an xnb

[naive drum]

Also, some bits of it might be hard coded into the c# component of sve, idk how current sve works exactly

[rain edge]

yabai

[naive drum]

Yeah, it's not an xnb. It's a tmx.

Just ask in the sve discord

They know about sve

[clear eagle]

.tmx files are edited via Tiled

What are you tryin to move btw? Mines?

[valid girder]

@tired brook Hiya, Wingheart suggested to tag you regarding a problem I have that seems to backtrack to SMAPI. When launching the game without SMAPI, just the regular way with SMAPI uninstalled, I have no problems in the game, it runs smooth and perfect. However when installing SMAPI, latest version, even without having any mods installed, I get a weird stutter every 3/4 seconds with some frame drops

[heavy lintel]

what's the best greenhouse mod? is there one that allows me to plant fruit trees like at the sides?

[valid girder]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/7497 this is a really good mod for that

[heavy lintel]

thanks!

[hushed crow]

does anyone know if PyTK works with 1.15.5?

[rain edge]

get the unofficial update

[hushed crow]

where can i get it?

[#5793] "A list of common mod update questions:

1. PyTK and TMXLoader still work in 1.5.5, but you need to get the unofficial versions from this link: https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/unofficial-mod-updates.2096/page-78#post-53000 Download the first file there for PyTK and the 2nd for TXMLoader.
2. UI Info Suite does not work in 1.5.5. Use UI Info Suite 2, which can be found here: https://github.com/Annosz/UIInfoSuite2/releases. Make sure not to download the source code.
3. NPC Adventures is broken for 1.5.5 and no longer being maintained.
4. Custom Music has an unofficial update here: https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/unofficial-mod-updates.2096/page-78#post-53000 (4th zip file) If you're having issues with music starting to play and then stopping, use this update.
5. Stardew Valley Expanded has been updated for 1.5.5, but you need to make sure you have all of its components, particularly the subfolder titled "StardewValleyExpanded", because that one contains all the code aspects. Also, it bundles an outdated version of Custom Music, so you may want to delete that before installing." - @lament prairie (05 Dec 2021 @ 09:48:16 PM UTC)

[rain edge]

adding on incase it doesnt throw u to the comment

first one is unofficial pytk

[hushed crow]

Oke, thanks!

[woeful patio]

one word: Smapi

[dire fractal]

Someone help? I have a problem installing smapi. The point is that I do everything as it should, step by step, but after installing smapi (despite the fact that the message appears that everything is installed) I do not have it in the game files.

[woeful patio]

nvm I got it!

[woeful patio]

If you have steam you might need to manually remove it from your game folder

then re install it

[dire fractal]

the problem is there are no smapi files in the game files after installing

So I have nothing to delete

[clear eagle]

Does it show any errors?

[dire fractal]

No

[clear eagle]

So, you got to the point where SMAPI shows you the path you have to put in Steam launch options?

[dire fractal]

I launched the smapi installer, then it showed me to choose 1 or 2, it automatically searches where the game files are and manually enter where the smapi files should be placed. I chose 1 then again 1 to install, at the end of the installation a message popped up that everything was successfully installed but nothing was added to the game files

I check if the automatically selected game location is correct and everything was fine

[hushed crow]

Is there a vertion for TMXL for 1.15.5?

[dire fractal]

I do not understand

[mighty flax]

when you try to open stardew, does it open smapi or the base game?

[dire fractal]

Base game

[mighty flax]

have you tried opening the installer again and reinstalling/uninstalling?

[dire fractal]

Yes

[mighty flax]

which version did u download?

[dire fractal]

Newest

[mighty flax]

hm weird

[dire fractal]

Yes 😑

I've probably done everything, I have no idea what could go wrong with the smapi

[clear eagle]

See the message by Uber above.

[clear eagle]

So where does SMAPI install files?

[golden yacht]

Is there a mod that is dedicated just to torment and screw over pierre

[dire fractal]

I have no idea

[clear eagle]

Wdym? I believe you have to choose the path during installation.

[dire fractal]

I wrote here that the files were "installed" where they should be installed, but they are not there

[clear eagle]

Yeah, that's what I was asking, where does SMAPI install files?

[mighty flax]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5865 you could use this and target him. pretty damn funny

[dire fractal]

I'm saying that I don't know where it can go

I give it to be installed where it should be and nothing appears there

[late nebula]

Do you have steam?

[dire fractal]

Yes

[late nebula]

Then it's probably Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley

[dire fractal]

Yes

[late nebula]

(Some of that might be backwards)

That is where your Mods folder should be as well as your SMAPI install.

[dire fractal]

Yes, but nothing appears there after installation

[late nebula]

Try to install smapi again and read where it is putting them. It won't continue if it can't find your game.

So if it installed successfully, then there will be files somewhere.

[dire fractal]

I will try to manually enter the link to the game files and if there are still problems, I will write here

[late nebula]

Yeah if it still doesn't install, send us a screenshot of your game directory

Just to be absolutely sure... Cause that would be a weird smapi error I've never encountered.

[dire fractal]

Okey

[late nebula]

The only things causing that I can think of are 1) The path was not where we thought it was or 2) SMAPI can read the stuff in the folder but not write. I still think that in case 2 it would pop out an error, but maybe not?

[light mesa]

hey i just downloaded CJB cheats menu and how do i acces it

[late nebula]

P

[light mesa]

ok thx

[royal arrow]

Yes it is my list. I've added it

[mighty flax]

have u looked through the entire folder & searched for “smapi” or “stardew modding api”??

[dire fractal]

yes but there is no such thing

[mighty flax]

thats so odd..

[dire fractal]

here are photos as proof, I remembered that when I wanted to download Sims, I couldn't because it popped up that I do not have a .dll file but in the stardew valley files we have this file

[mighty flax]

maybe ask pathos about it..?

[north hazel]

does anyone know when i press p the potarit doesnt change but there's a noti saying it's switched to the mod?

[dire fractal]

whats pathos ?

[mighty flax]

@/Pathoschild#0001

hes the creator of smapi, hes in the server

[dire fractal]

@tired brook will you help me ?

[mighty flax]

huh? are you talking about the portraiture mod?

what does the notif say?

[north hazel]

The profile doesnt change

[north hazel]

Yaahh, did i do something wrong

[mighty flax]

do you have generic mod config menu downloaded?

[north hazel]

generic mod?

[mighty flax]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5098

[north hazel]

like the others mods i need to download in order for it to work?

ouhhh

[valid girder]

don't you need in this case, have the mod in the portraiture mod? in like different maps so the mod can switch between them

[mighty flax]

very helpful for when trying to configure mods! it can help you reset to defaults and edit stuff in the mods. that might help, considering what’s in portraiture’s config.json

[valid girder]

I've had this before as well, by not putting them into the portraiture mod, he cant find them

[mighty flax]

ohhh yeah ^^

it looks like that though, because the notifs show up

[north hazel]

did i put it in the right place?

[north hazel]

i'll try using this :0

[valid girder]

yeah seems like you did put it in the right space

let me think back again what else had to be done haha

[north hazel]

maybe i should try downloading the config

[valid girder]

I'm currently also working so I need to think back a bit

[north hazel]

that's okay , thanks for the help
!

[mighty flax]

have you tried restarting the game?

[north hazel]

like shutting it down?

i always close the game and open up a new one if i wanna install a mod

[mighty flax]

yeah fair enough

when did you download portraiture though?

[north hazel]

just recently

[mighty flax]

like today?

[north hazel]

i tried using the unofficial one as well

[north hazel]

yup

[mighty flax]

has it worked before?

[north hazel]

no sadly because i was finding the unofficial pytk mod

the ui suite works fine tho

[valid girder]

lmao mine got reset, but I remember you had to do something else in order for the portraiture mod to pick up the files...

[mighty flax]

ohhhh okay

[valid girder]

• Create a folder in "Mods/Portraiture/Portraits" that you name however you like, for ex. "DCBurger Hi-Res" and extract the portrait files inside it.
  (If done correctly the file for Abigail would be located at "/Mods/Portraiture/Portraits/DCBurger Hi-Res/Abigail.png")

[north hazel]

the requirements ?

ouhhh

[mighty flax]

are your mods pngs or xnbs?

[north hazel]

so extract the files in that potrait? ahhh

[mighty flax]

or are they content patcher packs?

[north hazel]

pngs

[mighty flax]

ohh okay yeah

[north hazel]

one needs content patcher, and i also have it in the mod file

[mighty flax]

ohhhh

have you gotten an error about it being installed twice?

[north hazel]

for the potraiture, yes X'D

and i pressed yes to all to replace the files

[mighty flax]

okay, i would remofe the content patcher portrait mod from your mod folder and only have the assets folder from it in the portraits folder

so your path should look something like
mods/portraiture/portraits/portraitpackname and inside have all the png files from all the characters

[north hazel]

like this?

[valid girder]

yeah made a file and put the pngs in there

[mighty flax]

where did the other one go 😢

[north hazel]

i deleted it X'D

[mighty flax]

WHY

[valid girder]

[north hazel]

cause i guess i wanted just one portrait

[valid girder]

i use that DCburger one as my main one

[north hazel]

should i put it back in

[mighty flax]

ohhh okay yeah fair enough

only if you want it, if you dont, dont!

[north hazel]

okay XD

[mighty flax]

can you send me the nexus link for that all villagers vanilla portraits mod ?

[valid girder]

you can also have it overwrite the vanilla one of you dont care about the vanilla one

[north hazel]

okayy

[mighty flax]

for example if you have a mod called ‘bingus’ for example, and you’re looking for sebastian’s file, for portraiture to recognise a portrait file the path has to be like mods/portraiture/portraits/bingus/sebastian.png

[keen glen]

Ok so I am trying to use mods on the pc gamepass version but it won’t load the game or let me open the api by itself it says I don’t have permission to access it

[mighty flax]

the pngs/xnbs have to directly be in a folder that portraiture will recognise

[mighty flax]

gamepass version ?

[keen glen]

Yeah

[mighty flax]

that might be an issue with ur computer..?

i would ask #vanilla-tech-support maybe

[north hazel]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3759

[tacit wave]

can someone recommend some mods to me

[mighty flax]

omg that mod is so cute

[valid girder]

what kind of mods are you interested in?

[tacit wave]

idk umm

like more building

[mighty flax]

yeah, what r u wanting? visual, quality of life, expansions, food stuff, clothing stuff, furniture stuff?

[tacit wave]

[mighty flax]

[north hazel]

YUH IKR REUDRGTUKJNFVDKVFDVFE

[mighty flax]

monkey man i can reccomend u some in a sec

[tacit wave]

ok

[mighty flax]

can you show me your file path from the portrait mod folder (as in the one u just sent the link to)

[north hazel]

I GOT IT

[valid girder]

nice!

now you can add more portraits if you want, the same way as you did with this one

[north hazel]

The gigi folder prepared a potrait file hahahaha

[eternal ravine]

God. Shane looks like a twink, just twinkier 🤣
Well drawn though

[mighty flax]

OMG YAY

[north hazel]

So it was like potrait/vanilla/potrait/gigi/sebastian.png XD

THANKS FOR THE HELP

[mild frost]

No, #vanilla-tech-support is for issues relating to not mods. Anything mods is here.

[mighty flax]

i thought that wasnt about mods though

it said stuff about administrator permission ..?

[mild frost]

They are trying to use mods, that is a modded issue, they wouldn't have this problem if they were not trying to use mods

[mighty flax]

oh?

[tacit wave]

so what mods would you recommend

[mighty flax]

are you sure its because of the mods, not ur pc?

ALRIGHT ILL GIVE U A BUNCH

[tacit wave]

ok

[mild frost]

If you're not sure do remember you can just wait for someone else to answer

[keen glen]

I can’t even open the api file

Smapi I mean

[clear eagle]

Can you open vanilla?

Have you followed the guide?

You still have to rename the files to use SMAPI.

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows

[valid girder]

quick question for the people that run big modpacks with expansions in it and have Spacecore installed, is it normal for the game to load a lot slower with spacecore? I used to have it before and my game too a solid 7/10min to boot up, friend of mine has that as well. Removing spacecore, and ofcourse with that the expansions, boots the game up quickly again, but was wondering if that is normal with that mod

[clear eagle]

SpaceCore should not cause issues, PyTK can however cause long load times.

[valid girder]

hmm interesting

I still have PyTK, and my game does load like normally, just fast. However with SpaceCore for the expansions he was like nah haha

[keen glen]

I followed the guide and it says this

[clear eagle]

Have you renamed correctly?

[tacit wave]

nvm

[keen glen]

Yeah also it deletes the original file for some reason when i rename it

[mighty flax]

I really badly wanted to try out the Aquarium one maybe once I can fix my game haha

it looked so neat

[keen glen]

Any clue??

[mighty flax]

the aquarium mod is so cool!

[clear eagle]

Honestly, I don't know. I don't use Xbox SDV

[valid girder]

160+ mods dang, how long is your load time for the game? you're making me curious lol

must take a while with how much it has to load

[keen glen]

Ok guess no one’s know how it works really

[clear eagle]

Have you enabled extensions?

[valid girder]

sorry can't help you either :( don't use it either

[clear eagle]

Like you might have renamed Stardew Valley.exe.exe

[keen glen]

Yeah the original file gets deleted if i rename it

[clear eagle]

Can I see a screenshot?

Game folder I mean

[keen glen]

Old file was called stardew valley original and now it’s deleted it

And can’t find it if I push undo

[clear eagle]

Can i see a screenshot of steamappid?

[keen glen]

I’m using gamepass

[clear eagle]

In that folder

There should be one.

[keen glen]

Found it

[clear eagle]

No I mean just screenshot of that folder with steamappid.

[keen glen]

Like that??

[clear eagle]

Yeaa

Instead of renaming to Stardew Valley.exe just rename it Stardew Valley

[keen glen]

Boom it works someone needs to update wiki

[clear eagle]

No, it's because you've hidden file extensions

So it looked like Stardew Valley.exe.exe

[keen glen]

Ahh

[keen crow]

160+ mods probably is about 5-10? ... Maybe less

Mine is half an hour so there's that

[valid girder]

how many mods do you run?

[keen crow]

||...............................................||👆

This many

[mighty flax]

its usually 5+ mins yeah

[valid girder]

fair play

but holy heck thats a lot.. Its honestly amazing to me that there are even that many mods

[livid magnet]

I have about 125 and so far.. So good with the 1.5.5 setup

[valid girder]

I only run about 85 currently, but that is because I have lag/stutter problems that I'm still working on, but otherwise I would also load it up with far more mods haha

[fair frigate]

Heya, I was wondering if anyone knows if there’s a update for the NPC Adventures mod. It sounds so fun, but the mod page says that it’s not compatible with the update

[neat plaza]

nope

[fair frigate]

Will there ever be? I really wanted to try it…

[chrome cosmos]

the author has left the modding community, its up to someone else to maintain it if they're up for it

[fair frigate]

Awww that sucks 😩

[tired brook]

Can you post a screenshot of your C:\ folder?

[tired brook]

Can you launch the game with SMAPI but no mods, cause the stutter again, then post a new log via https://smapi.io/log/?

@dire fractal Do you have Comodo installed, or any other custom security software?

[valid girder]

Good timing, was just testing it again without mods lol. Stutter is indeed still here, and also launched the game without SMAPI, again no stutter. This is the log without mods with the stutter: https://smapi.io/log/535b7df191a043c8b9c1fdf448833b68

[dire fractal]

Yes I have comodo

[tired brook]

@valid girder It looks like you already tried the processor affinity fix; just to make sure, did you set it to a core that's not 0 or 1?

[valid girder]

I turned of core 0, eventually also tried core 1 but neither worked. My CPU also isnt spiking in task managed

its quite divided

[tired brook]

Have you tried setting it to only one specific core (that's not 0 or 1)?

@dire fractal Comodo is probably sandboxing the SMAPI installer, so it's giving the installer access to a fake version of your system. Try temporarily disabling Comodo or adding an exception for SMAPI to it.

[valid girder]

I haven't no, but i can definitely try it. I got an AMD Ryzen 9 5900X incase it matters

[tacit wave]

so i am trying to get my mods to work and all the panel says is you have multipule copes of it and i deleted litterly alll of the copies and it is still not working can someone help

[tired brook]

@tacit wave Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and post a link here?

[tacit wave]

where is the log

[tired brook]

The page at https://smapi.io/log explains how to find it; feel free to ask if any specific steps are unclear.

it's like an all round stutter, on title screen, then in the game when walking around, standing still, in menu

[tired brook]

@tacit wave For some reason you have copies of a bunch of mods in the Mods\Winter Grass-1601-2-0-3-1608585082 folder.

[merry olive]

I have almost 400 mods

[tired brook]

@tacit wave Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods in file explorer, and delete the Winter Grass-1601-2-0-3-1608585082 folder.

used both of these before 10/10. i dont remember if theyre cp mods or not, if not, i’d suggest using portraiture https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/999 alongside it !

[merry olive]

I think about cutting the numbers down all the time but I love them all (almost) equally

i wanna be you but im a mac user and ny computer can barely take 100 (yet i use 160+)

@tacit wave Yep.

[tacit wave]

ok

[merry olive]

ahhh that sucks, I’m very fortunate that my laptop can handle the workload! it takes about 10 minutes to get the game started but it’s totally worth it

[jovial wyvern]

I have portraiture, but I don't actually know how to use it

[mighty flax]

check the description! i explained it before in a conversation w someone else as well

wait but dont i need that mod

dont i

Can you...

1. unzip this directly into your game folder;
2. run MinimalLauncher.exe;
3. see if the lag still happens;
4. and then post a screenshot of its console window?

[robust bison]

guess you're out of luck then

[clear eagle]

Ohh, am I seeing SMAPI Lite?👀

[oak prairie]

Would keka work to unzip?

[robust bison]

and how are you on 1.13.36?

[oak prairie]

It doesnt let me update lol

[clear eagle]

Wait what?

[robust bison]

we're on 1.5...

[clear eagle]

1.13 exists?

[oak prairie]

yea

[tired brook]

Note that Stardew Valley 1.3.36 is three years old, so you'll need to use old versions of mods too.

apple?

Quick question, when running Minimallauncher is it supposed to boot something? Or just run it and then boot Stardew with SMAPI?

It should launch the game (without SMAPI).

that was to Hinatori i think?

[oak prairie]

oh

[tired brook]

@oak prairie Looks like you're possibly trying to run the Windows version of Stardew Valley on macOS, but you'll need to install the macOS version instead.

[oak prairie]

Can you put the newer stardew valley (1.5) in the chat and see if i can download it?

[neat plaza]

that's..
piracy

[robust bison]

if I can ask, how are you not able to update the game if you already downloaded it?

[tired brook]

Nope. You need to buy the game, we can't send you a copy.

[oak prairie]

Oh

Ok

Im clueless when It comes to computers

[clear eagle]

[mighty flax]

[oak prairie]

i have this showing

[tired brook]

@valid girder If it didn't launch the game, it might be because you have text selected in the console, which paused the app. Try clicking the console window and pressing enter to clear the selection.

[neat plaza]

can you send what you see when you press that ?

[leaden tapir]

Hi does sv expanded works in mobile?

[oak prairie]

press what?

[neat plaza]

the ?

in the bottom right

[oak prairie]

yes

[clear eagle]

ModDrop one works.

[valid girder]

nah dont worry I was being a dumbdumb and didnt place the .exe in the right place it worked the second time when i moved it haha. Lag is still there, the screenshot i posted is from the console

[robust bison]

you need the right version

[neat plaza]

can you press it then send a screenshot

[tacit wave]

@tired brook

[leaden tapir]

K thanks

[oak prairie]

that?

[clear eagle]

Yea, thats too old

[oak prairie]

oh 😦

[mighty flax]

what… version is that

[neat plaza]

yep

if you bought the game, why can't you update?

[tired brook]

Interesting. So it's not something SMAPI is doing, since all the minimal launcher does is log your GPUs, and then launch the game with zero changes.

[mighty flax]

bow did you even get that 😭

[neat plaza]

1.3.36
~3 years old

[oak prairie]

Idk Steam isnt installed

[mighty flax]

oh my god 😭

[tacit wave]

can you help me

[neat plaza]

then how did you get the game

[tacit wave]

@tired brook

??

[mighty flax]

this is so chaotic

[oak prairie]

I uninstalled it

[clear eagle]

We can help too

[mighty flax]

thank you bubbin .

[neat plaza]

then install it and update the game?

[oak prairie]

I thought wasnt going to use steam again and I had no space

[tired brook]

@tacit wave Are you still having any issues after deleting (and optionally reinstalling) Winter Grass?

[tacit wave]

yes

[tired brook]

What's the new problem?

[mighty flax]

you cant open stardew without steam if you bought it on steam

[oak prairie]

@mighty flax Your welcome

I have a desktop shortcut

[valid girder]

oh that is interesting! I have tried a lot of things with my pc to see where the problem may lay. I will say I played modded Stardew before the latest update and had no problems, no clue if its connected but I'm pretty sure it happened after that Do you have any idea why it then does not give me lag when booting the game fresh from Steam without SMAPI, but does with the minimal launcher?

[mighty flax]

[oak prairie]

ill try rebuying it

[tacit wave]

https://smapi.io/log/63366e6877ff46688b59b289b19e6ecf

[clear eagle]

Do you have any background programs running while playing?

Like browsers?

[tacit wave]

is there anything wrong with that

[valid girder]

Some yeah, my firefox is open, a console in the tray and my wallpaper engine. Has never been a problem before though but could it be now?

[clear eagle]

You have a lot of mod copies

[neat plaza]

a lot

[tacit wave]

cause i did see red

[clear eagle]

And you're missing requirements of some mods.

[tired brook]

I'm not sure. Stardew Valley 1.5.5 changes the underlying frameworks though (from XNA Framework + .NET Framework + DirectX to MonoGame + .NET 5 + OpenGL). I suspect it might be an issue with OpenGL. 🤔

[tacit wave]

oh

can you list everything please

[tired brook]

@tacit wave The error messages in the SMAPI console explain how to fix them. For example:

Skipped [...] Custom NPC Exclusions because you have multiple copies of this mod installed. To fix this, delete these folders and reinstall the mod: Mods-Stardew Valley Expanded--3753-1-13-14-1638814114 (1)\CustomNPCExclusions, Mods\Custom NPC Exclusions v1.3.0-7089-1-3-0-1613615295\CustomNPCExclusions.

So in this case you have two copies of the mod:

• Mods\-Stardew Valley Expanded--3753-1-13-14-1638814114 (1)\CustomNPCExclusions
• Mods\Custom NPC Exclusions v1.3.0-7089-1-3-0-1613615295\CustomNPCExclusions

You can delete one of them to fix it (probably the one that's not bundled with Stardew Valley Expanded).

[tacit wave]

ok thx

[clear eagle]

Ye, these red texts explains what you need to do.

[mighty flax]

when the second to recent smapi update came out stardew opened with another icon and thing Why did that happen

[tacit wave]

ok thank you

!!!!

[clear eagle]

It's because SDV migrated to MonoGame.

That's the default icon

[mighty flax]

nono ir wa ssomething else

[valid girder]

Any tips and tricks that I might be able to look into? Already did the XNA framework repair and replace one, got the latest NET 5 as well

[mighty flax]

very strange . i wa sso confused

[tacit wave]

so only stardew expanded and custom npc thig

?

[clear eagle]

You have multiple copies of Custom NPC Exclusions, Custom Music (one in SVE folder, delete that one)

You are missing DaisyNiko's Tilesheets, Train Station, Custom NPC Fixes, Quest Framework.

[tacit wave]

GOD I AM MISSING A LOT

thx

by the way

bye

[tired brook]

Repairing XNA Framework won't do anything anymore, since the game doesn't use it anymore. We also have some OpenGL-only issues on laptops which cause a crash, so we're looking into the possibility of creating a DirectX version of the game to try; I could ping you if we get it working so you can try it.

[valid girder]

that would be nice, thank you I'm honestly open to try anything at this point lol

[clear eagle]

would that be dx9 or dx11?

[tired brook]

(Whichever one MonoGame supports out of the box.)

[west pike]

is this a place where i can upload crash reports

[late nebula]

Yeah

!log

[native dragon]

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

[west pike]

yep i can do that thanks

i got this error when trying to run it

[neat plaza]

go to %appdata% then just navigate to the correct location

[west pike]

if it helps im on the pc gamepass version of stardew valley

[tired brook]

The log is stored in a different place for PC Game Pass. Go to %appdata%\Local\Packages instead and look for a folder name starting with ConcernedApe.StardewValleyPC_. Inside that go to LocaleCache\Roaming\StardewValley\ErrorLogs.

[west pike]

oh ok thanks

https://smapi.io/log/29859df18d7247fb9aa1c4218fb77aa3

[tacit wave]

where can i find the error log again i am still having issues

[native dragon]

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

[tired brook]

@west pike That's already in the latest game updates, but it might take a while for the update to arrive on PC Game Pass due to Microsoft's certification process.

[west pike]

ohh ok

[tacit wave]

nvm

i found it

[west pike]

so i just need to wait a little bit

[tired brook]

You can also temporarily remove SpaceCore (and any mods that need it), since that's the only mod you have currently that's affected by the issue.

[west pike]

will that break SVE

[tired brook]

Probably.

[tacit wave]

https://smapi.io/log/a5e1af9afd0b45228e39fdfa30ffa176

can you help again sorry

[clear eagle]

You need Mail Framework Mod

Sorry I forgot to add that one.

[tacit wave]

ok

it ok

[clear eagle]

And you haven't deleted copies yet.

[tacit wave]

what do i have to delete?

[clear eagle]

Inside the SVE folder, delete CustomNPCFixes and Custom Music

[tacit wave]

what is sve again

?

[clear eagle]

Stardew Valley Expanded

[tacit wave]

ok

[robust bison]

!sve

[native dragon]

Stardew Valley Expanded (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3753) is a mod which adds a lot of new content and areas to the game. It has many dependencies, so be sure to follow the install guide which is on the github wiki along with FAQs and troubleshooting steps for common issues: https://github.com/FlashShifter/StardewValleyExpanded/wiki

[tacit wave]

ok so i put the mail thing in my folder and a deleted custom music and CustomNPCFixes

is that wrong or right

[keen glen]

How do you find the update for UI suite???

[neat plaza]

!compat

[native dragon]

@keen glen See https://smapi.io/mods for a list of mods updated for the latest versions of SMAPI and Stardew Valley. :)

[clear eagle]

Make sure you've deleted the one inside the Stardew Valley Expanded folder and not the one in main mod folder.

[jagged eagle]

I'm trying to download Natural Color - ReShade (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1213) but the zip is empty

[late nebula]

Make sure to read the installation instructions. It doesn't go into mods. If the zip really is empty, I would try to download it again and then contact the author if it's still empty.

[eternal ravine]

Is there a mod which adds invisible/transparent paths?

[nocturne flame]

How do I fix this

[jagged eagle]

It's completely empty. There's no files and the size of the zip is 0kb. I tried downloading it multiple times already but it didn't help. I guess I have to contact the author

[clear eagle]

have you updated the game?

[sonic marsh]

I'm getting this error during launch

but i have the mod installed

[nocturne flame]

I reinstalled it just 15 minutes ago hoping it would fix it

[clear eagle]

try reinstalling mizu's flowers

And don't use both JA and DGA Pack that do the same thing.

Use only one

Mizu is installed but it seems manifest is missing.

Either it's Vortex or something went wrong during your process

[dire fractal]

So again like yesterday, I have the same issue with Ent Modding Utilities not working after going to the next day. It works just fine till I go to the next day. Then it fails in the game loop.

[mighty flax]

i would suggest not downloading the ppja bundle, but all of them seperately. there are issues with downloading the bundle.

[dire fractal]

I got rid of Underwater Ginger Island because I was told that might be the issue. Didn't help though.

[lament prairie]

Isn't Entarox stuff out of date?

[clear eagle]

Looks like TFO to me

[dire fractal]

Compat says its still good, not on android though

[lament prairie]

It's not game-breaking, is what compat means

[dire fractal]

Plus it works fine loading the game, then just gives me errors about failing the game loop when I go to the next day

[lament prairie]

It hasn't really been maintained for a while and is pretty out of date

(I'll try to read the actual error, your log is massive)

Yeah, i don't understand the error and neither will anyone who doesn't know a lot about the serializers in-game

Probably compat just hasn't been updated to reflect that it's broken, or you've stumbled across some kind of incompatibility with another mod?

What does Entoarox Modding Utilities even do?

[dire fractal]

Well the only mod needing it at all is Extended Minecart.

[lament prairie]

Hmm actually Entoarox is still active on Nexus

Probably leave a comment there with your log

[nocturne flame]

I still need help idk how to fix it

[small sorrel]

is there any easy way to update mods and readd them into the folder?

cos i just updated a few and i think i fucked it all up

[wanton wharf]

There's nothing easier then just downloading them and adding, what do you think you messed up?

[small sorrel]

thats the thing

im just getting errors now its mainly xsplus and that

[wanton wharf]

Hmm can I see your log

!log

[native dragon]

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

[small sorrel]

yea sure

weird

i dont have a errorlogs folder

[clear eagle]

did you skip the messages?
Edit: nvm wrong person.

[wanton wharf]

Huh

Umm can you try re-loading the game then check for the folder again?

[small sorrel]

yea sec

if i just reinstall all the mods i will lose the data on them right like the chest dimension ect?

[wanton wharf]

From my experience no but no promises don't yell at me if it does

[small sorrel]

nah i wont

that was gonna be the option i was bouta do anyway

[clear eagle]

Can you try this one? https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting

[small sorrel]

i just dont know why i dont have any logs

[nocturne flame]

ok I will look at it

[wanton wharf]

Nor do I I've never seen that before and I don't really have a solution for it so...ig you're stuck
You could try moving mod folders out of the folder and re-launch the game one at a time to try and find which mod is causing it

[small sorrel]

im thinking i might need to just reinstall the game and smapi but i dont want to do smth wrong and lose my farm since its with the mod that gives u a load more farms forgot which one it is

[gaunt gust]

load more farms?

fwiw, that feature is now in vanilla

assuming that no one used a map layer that's not in vanilla...

[small sorrel]

im using the everfarm i think

just dont wanna lose it cos i cleared a load from it and almost on Y3

[gaunt gust]

can you link me?

thought u meant new new

but yea my games fucked and i might need to reinstall everything just dont wanna lose my mod data

[gaunt gust]

just move your mods out of the way

copy them to a different directory

[small sorrel]

yea but the mods are the issue

[gaunt gust]

then slowly add them back in

[tall smelt]

i like the idea of having a farm with every biome on it., thats nice

[gaunt gust]

just a few at a time

[gaunt gust]

the warps are a nice touch

[small sorrel]

i mean i was gonna reinstall them anyway cos i got like 22 and 14 of them to update

but i dont know if ill fully lose the data on some of them

like chest dimension ect

Also, it bundles an outdated version of Custom Music, so you may want to delete that before installing." - @lament prairie (05 Dec 2021 @ 09:48:16 PM UTC)

[late nebula]

You don't lose data on mods

It's in your save file

[small sorrel]

oh

[late nebula]

The only one I think that puts data in the Mods directory is Dear Diary

Most put stuff where your save files are

[small sorrel]

kk

[tall smelt]

just backup your saves and slowly re-install each mod

[late nebula]

All you might lose is config settings

[small sorrel]

moving the save files out and back in after installation shouldnt mess with any of the backups?

[tall smelt]

afaik @late nebula is correct

[small sorrel]

cos my games fucked to theres just no errorlogs lmao

[tall smelt]

no youll be fine

[small sorrel]

ight good to know thanks 😄

[tall smelt]

copy/paste if youre scared of losing files

[late nebula]

I would do what Zachriel says on a new game to see what's causing the issue.

[gaunt gust]

wdym by "no errorlogs"

[small sorrel]

no errorlogs folder for smapi

[gaunt gust]

...odd

[small sorrel]

i was gonna give my logs to frost but they wernt there

[tall smelt]

what version of smapi are you using

[small sorrel]

just updated

[gaunt gust]

you on gamepass?

[small sorrel]

1.13.2 i think it is if thats the latest

wait its 3.13.2

[tall smelt]

its 3.13

[gaunt gust]

3.13.2

[small sorrel]

thats it

[tall smelt]

lol ok

[small sorrel]

idk why i thought 1.13

ight well ill reinstall stuff and come back if theres any issues thanks again

[tall smelt]

close enough. i had issues with older versions of smapi so figured id ask lol

[gaunt gust]

yeah. see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#After_updating_to_the_latest_versions.2C_launching_the_game_still_shows_an_old_SMAPI_or_game_version and make sure your idea of "where the game is" and "SMAPI's the same

[tall smelt]

if you can, use a mod manager, makes installing/re-installing easier

[small sorrel]

it is save-backups right there not just the backups?

[tall smelt]

plus is categorizes the mods themselves

[late nebula]

Woah no mod managers

[small sorrel]

wait

do the save files save the custom maps to?

[late nebula]

[tall smelt]

i think it just saves the main data, such as location of certain objects, and items in inventory

[small sorrel]

ight sick

[tall smelt]

i doubt the map not being the same should cause any big issues

[gaunt gust]

I doubt your map is the problem

[small sorrel]

problem of what?

[gaunt gust]

check the links I gave you above to make sure your idea of where the game is matches smapi's

[small sorrel]

its not the smapi as far as i know its just the mods the old versions some not over writing ect

ight well ima reinstall some stuff brb

[#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)

(Just for reference on why I went angy)

[gaunt gust]

are you are running SMAPI as your user (and not as an adminstrative user?)

[small sorrel]

i normally just ran from stardew valley through steam but after i added the new smapi and started updating stuff it went

[gaunt gust]

make sure that steam is launching smapi (check your launch options)

[small sorrel]

already uninstalled sdv reinstalling it rn

[maiden rose]

hi, i was here the other day with no solution found to my problem with stardew valley, one old game save file crashes my game, however i just found out newer save files with barely any hours will open and not crash my game

[worthy lichen]

Are you getting errors in your SMAPI log specific to the older game?

[maiden rose]

i don't think terminal is opening when i open stardew

[teal notch]

Have you tried looking at your saves?

[maiden rose]

how do i upload log with no terminal

i'm on mac

[teal notch]

hımmmm

[maiden rose]

nvm found error logs

[lament prairie]

If terminal isn't opening that sounds like SMAPI isn't installed

[maiden rose]

ughhhh

that's weird

[lament prairie]

try reinstalling

[maiden rose]

this is the latest version?

[lament prairie]

yes

[worthy lichen]

Latest release version is always right at the top of smapi.io

Hey look, it says we're friendly

[maiden rose]

it says there was an error trying to update stardew so i uninstalled and i'm reinstalling now

crashed

[lament prairie]

What exactly did it do when crashing?

Was there any text in the terminal?

[maiden rose]

lemme see again

[lament prairie]

There's no crash text in your log

[gaunt gust]

just dead on stops while loading CP stuff

[maiden rose]

do you guys think that file itself will be forever corrupted

[lament prairie]

That's pretty odd

[gaunt gust]

uh, try windowed mode?

[lament prairie]

I've never had than happen to me (I'm also on Mac)

[gaunt gust]

I found two people who had the issue of it stopping during spacecore's sereializer https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1348?tab=posts

[maiden rose]

i think it is i windowed mode?

[lament prairie]

You're not using SMAPI

Or is that on purpose?

The icon is a red M G

[maiden rose]

?

[lament prairie]

Sorry

It should be a red weird shape when it's smapi

[gaunt gust]

monogame's logo, fwiw

[worthy lichen]

^

[maiden rose]

ooh i forced that to quit before

now it wont open by itself

did i uninstall smapi by doing that?

[worthy lichen]

Mono is required for SMAPI to function on Linux and Mac

[lament prairie]

It's should be fine after force-quitting, but maybe something went wrong?

[maiden rose]

should i try reinstalling it again?

[worthy lichen]

Did you purchase the game through Steam?

[maiden rose]

yes

[worthy lichen]

I'd try verifying file integrity first.

[lament prairie]

Do you have StardewModdingAPI in your game folder?

[maiden rose]

how do i find it

[lament prairie]

In steam, right click > manage > browse local files

[lament prairie]

So the thing in red should launch SMAPI. The thing in black should also launch SMAPI, if SMAPI has been installed correctly, but less guaranteed (it's the thing that Steam launches, I believe)

You can just double click on them

[late nebula]

The second one doesn't

[lament prairie]

Ah, I might be mistaken then

Try the one in red

[maiden rose]

red thing is back

[lament prairie]

Okay, so now it's def launching SMAPI of some kind.

Are you also getting the game coming up and Terminal launching?

[dire fractal]

I have a problem installing the smpai

[late nebula]

What kind of problem?

[lament prairie]

Relaunch it

Actually hmm

I know that's the file that changed with the hotfix

[gaunt gust]

manual install, did not copy over file

[dire fractal]

I did it

[gaunt gust]

make a copy of Stardew Valley.deps.json and call it StardewModdingAPI.deps.json

if you did it, make sure the permissions on that file are accessible to your user

[maiden rose]

yes but still crashing

https://smapi.io/log/40b07e3ae2654cb999cd3caa993529b8

i think my one save file is simply cursed

[dire fractal]

there is no file with that name

[lament prairie]

And you definitely are using the same set of mods as you used to be on this save file?

[chrome cosmos]

is this a legit version of the game?

[gaunt gust]

is the game fully up to date and are you sure you are not on the legacy version?

[dire fractal]

is the 1.5.4

[worthy lichen]

From the logs it doesn't even appear to be making it to a save load?

[worthy lichen]

Update your game

[lament prairie]

There are some mods that when you don't uninstall them right, then they don't let you load a save

[dire fractal]

ok

[chrome cosmos]

so you didnt buy the game?

[lament prairie]

But usually they give errors, so I'm a tiny bit puzzled

[maiden rose]

stardew just opened up by itself and i clicked on my save file and it started working now but idk what i did T_T

[lament prairie]

Hmm, odd

[maiden rose]

i'm scared i wont be able to do that again

[lament prairie]

Were you possibly trying to load the save on the vanilla (chicken) game?

I noticed you seemed to have 2 copies open at the same time

[maiden rose]

oh i think so

[lament prairie]

One with the chicken one with the red MG

[maiden rose]

i think that happened before

[lament prairie]

You'll only be able to open this save with the red MG

[maiden rose]

how do i get rid of the second copy

[lament prairie]

Just quit the chicken one

[maiden rose]

should i delete it in finder?

[lament prairie]

Without more info I can't say why Steam seems to not be launching SMAPi

No, don't do that

[maiden rose]

lmao

[lament prairie]

But you can always launch SMAPI by double clicking StardewModdingAPI

If you want to play a modded game, you have to be running SMAPI (red MG)

[maiden rose]

so should i go through steam, browse local files, stardewAPI everytime to get to the smapi version?

[thorn field]

i use the CJB cheatsmenu from once in a while, is there a known issue with changing the time once in a while to affecting weather? I alwasy get the 3rd day rain but i am in my fall and haven't had rain since, is this a known issue?

[maiden rose]

that's annoying aaaaaa

[gaunt gust]

you can make a shortcut if you'd like

[maiden rose]

how :o

[worthy lichen]

You can use the launch options in steam properties to point steam to SMAPI so it launches by default when you click play from Steam.

[thorn field]

in the smapi install info there is a note section on how to attach it to steam so when you press play it runs the game thru the api

[gaunt gust]

windows only, bees

those are all windows only

[thorn field]

oh i thought she was on windows, im sorry

[gaunt gust]

I meant more of a "right click, select make shortcut" but I don't recall how to do it on Mac again

[thorn field]

if you right click your game and go to launch options and type in your .exe location that works

[maiden rose]

if i try to launch through stardewAPI, the game will take a long time to load

i tried to launch through API 2 minutes ago game still hasnt loaded

[thorn field]

i have a lot of mods and mine can take a while to load 😦

[maiden rose]

i have 43 mods lol

[thorn field]

i found pressing enter in the command window helps mine along lol

[maiden rose]

okay it loaded again just takes 2 minutes

thank u guys

sorry for all the trouble i hope i don’t have to come back here again aakshdsah

[split patrol]

When pressing shift+tab to see the steam overlay, is it normal for it to look so... low quality?

[astral jewel]

lol modding make absolutely no sense, i got an error in a mod , draged it out of mods file, then draged it in again and it worked

[unreal vale]

Oh.

Thank you very much <333

[eternal oak]

Hey if I delete a custom NPC I married

[gaunt gust]

that seems a rude way to get around a divorce

[eternal oak]

Can I marry someone else or am I still coded as married in-game

[eternal oak]

LOL

LOOK

I'm kinda paring down on mods

[upper ember]

It'll give you a.. yellow warning, I believe, in Smapi, telling you it's missing the NPC when you load the save, but everything is removed ( Just make sure you delete any items that came with them before doing so! ) so you aren't stuck in an invisible marriage

[eternal oak]

Awesome!

Thank you

[lament prairie]

I did some debugging with marriage and divorce, and uh, some weird stuff happened (but this was all with vanilla npcs)

[gaunt gust]

Feels like it'd be safer to just divorce first, honestly

[lament prairie]

If removing the NPC doesn't work, you might need to reinstall the mod, although I also believe it should work

[upper ember]

I believe I've done it before and it never had any weirdness

Vanilla NPCs being weird about it makes sense, 'cause their stuff is still in the files no matter what, a custom NPC gets it's files ripped out, leaving nothing

[lament prairie]

It was something like, "if you remarry by command line someone you just divorced, they still hate you"

[trail ocean]

hi, does anyone know what would be stopping me getting to some areas when using the expanded map? i am playing multi player, we both have the same mods.

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/943

[cyan dagger]

I just read something that may be literal game changing but I want to confirm. Are mods available for use on Android/GooglePlay?

[gaunt gust]

!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.

[tired brook]

Can you try this?

1. From the start menu, search for Graphics Settings and open it.
2. In the app list, search for StardewModdingAPI. If it doesn't appear, click "Browse" above it and choose StardewModdingAPI.exe in your game folder.
3. In the app list, click "Options" under StardewModdingAPI.
4. Change the Graphics preference to "High performance".
5. Save.
6. Launch StardewModdingAPI.exe in your game folder and see if the lag is gone.

(We should probably change that quote to link to https://smapi.io/mods/#PyTK instead; that way it won't be outdated when someone posts a new update, and it also helps players know where to check for other mods.)

Thanks! it worked 🙂

[gaunt gust]

That makes sense, yeah. I'm not sure if quotes can be edited but I can draft a new one

[shut violet]

i think there's a way to edit quote

pathos mentioned it the other day

[harsh drum]

Nvm it didn't work mayne because im trying to play expanded but yeah

[gaunt gust]

you have none of expanded installed at the moment

[harsh drum]

Your kidding

well you have the dependencies but none of SVE

But it said to download those mods when i tried to download SVE

[gaunt gust]

yes

you have to download those mods (the dependencies.) Next, you have to download SVE itself

Ohhhhh

@inland quartz See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! (This doesn't affect your save files.) You may also want to check this list of XNB > Content Patcher conversions (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher) to see if there are already replacements for any XNB mods you may have been using :)

[gaunt gust]

you can do that by verifying the game files

[lament prairie]

it needs an underscore

Even more updated, you can see in gov mansion

[inland quartz]

i did it

no discrepancies found

[gaunt gust]

hang on a sec, let me check your log again

maybe try replacing harvest with scythe with the same feature in cjb cheats?

[inland quartz]

i can just try and disable that mod

i dont need it that much anyways

[gaunt gust]

yeah, try that first.

I'm not absolutely sure it's that, but it's coming up on the list

[inland quartz]

i see a lot of errors popping up durin startup

stardewhack

and bigger backpack apparently

[gaunt gust]

hack is, what, bcmpinc's thing?

it's a depdendency to bigger backpack +harvest w/scythe, iirc

[inland quartz]

yeah

harvest with scythe is also showing errors

[gaunt gust]

(I've been using bigger backpack + always scroll map without issue)

but also, GOG-vs-Steam

[inland quartz]

ill disable both let me check

[gaunt gust]

it's the JA line that is...worrisome

System.Exception: Wrong null argument: brfalse.s NULL

this is caused by the lack of a specific hotfix on the GOG version, and it prevents saving.

you may want to consider fully uninstalling/reinstalling, I guess.

https://smapi.io/log/3806c2adac114a548c6483c1425db3a3

i already did that earlier cuz for some reason the game wasnt launching at all after updating smapi

[dire fractal]

Having Map Toolkit errors for Underwater mods and for Mermaid island. Anyone have any ideas?

[inland quartz]

guess i found the culprit

[gaunt gust]

I wonder if it's possible to get the exact version number from GOG?

...interesting

[inland quartz]

hmm

im not sure

[gaunt gust]

I think I want to check the forum page and the nexus page

[inland quartz]

could you also help me with this

it keeps popping up but i have no clue what this means

[gaunt gust]

sve bundles some mods. CM is one of them

[gaunt gust]

I'm really not sure what to say, other than can you see if you have problems with just the underwater mds + swim +tmxl

if so, report it to the nexus page

[inland quartz]

oh so can i just disable it?

[gaunt gust]

try it, I guess? I'm not very versed in Vortex

[inland quartz]

okay!!

[gaunt gust]

the other thing to check - make sure the directory SMAPI believes the game is in matches your idea of where the game is.

I've seen STEAM, for some god unknown reason, suddenly install the game somewhere else.

[inland quartz]

yea it should be correct

i manually entered it

[gaunt gust]

got it

[inland quartz]

a new sve update just came out

ugh lemme download it

[dire fractal]

It's failing to serialize, whatever that means. Do i report to TMX or the mods?

[gaunt gust]

report it to the mods, I would think

[inland quartz]

stardew hack is still broken even with the new patch

ill just disable all of em

[gaunt gust]

so, I think your issue may be with JA

is it possible to get the exact version number of the game from GOG?

[inland quartz]

whats that

[gaunt gust]

Json Assets

[inland quartz]

its the latest version, 1.5.5

[gaunt gust]

yeah, but there's four (unnumbered) hotfixes

(I think)

one of them is the one that makes the JA error go away

[inland quartz]

oh uhm

im not sure how to check

[gaunt gust]

neither do I, honestly

sorry

[inland quartz]

its ok

thanks for all your help so far

nothing to do

it still shows the same error

[gaunt gust]

can you try fully uninstalling and reinstalling?
