fwiw, this quote list is mostly sent to people who are just trying to use mods

[cerulean swallow]

should I send my like here?

[gaunt gust]

yes, but run through the two posts of debugging tips first!

(get the unofficial pytk, the unofficial tmxl, and then read the xnb article. You also need to get UI Info Suite 2 from the post above)

[inland quartz]

this should be it

[gaunt gust]

can you report that (including the version number) to the JA Nexus page?

[inland quartz]

okay

[gaunt gust]

(and your log too!)

[unreal stratus]

That's fair

[gaunt gust]

I regularly have to teach people how to navigate file explorer I'm not convinced you're going to find a new maintainer this way

okay which one is it bot

[topaz matrix]

u can't use xnb mod with smapi mods

[cerulean swallow]

so what should I do with them? delete them?

[topaz matrix]

and u need the unofficial update for pytk
https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/unofficial-mod-updates.2096/page-78#post-53000

[topaz matrix]

yes

[late nebula]

If you have xnb mods, you just need to reset your game files to get rid of them.

!xnb

[native dragon]

XNB mods often break the game and are not recommended. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods for more info (and a list of Content Patcher alternatives), and https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files to fix problems caused by XNB mods. For mod creators, see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).

[topaz matrix]

they are in the mod folder

[late nebula]

You can use xnb and smapi together. It just causes issues.

A lot of those mods in the log aren't xnb. They're just... messed up somehow.

[gaunt gust]

also deeply incomplete sve installation

(just a heads up. I'm out of SAN to be more helpful, but unofficial pytk+tmxl, needs ui info suite 2, needs to fix sve install, and has xnb mods seems to be the four relevant issues)

[late nebula]

If they don't have a very long save, I would honestly suggest deleting everything in mods, resetting their files, and starting over. Because that is a mess.

[cerulean swallow]

I just star modding and I followed step by step from youtubers

[exotic pagoda]

it says that its out of date but its the latest version on the workshop

[exotic pagoda]

THANHK YOU

[lament prairie]

quick question does anyone know where juliet stands at the sdv fair?

nvm i dug into the jsons

[exotic pagoda]

oh yea i should probably ask how do i download things from github

[gaunt gust]

fwiw, youtube videos tend to fall out of date very quickly, which is why we don't recommend them

Let's start over. You should start by following the SVE instructions here https://github.com/FlashShifter/StardewValleyExpanded/wiki/Install-guide

[exotic pagoda]

never mind i figured it out

[gaunt gust]

I was about to say - that page explains it

[exotic pagoda]

thank you for your help i really want to drink large amount of wine in game

had a heart attack because i saw another massive wall of red text but no i just forgot to delete the old tmxthingy

red wall is back

tmxl map toolkit wont load because i dont have pytk

but i have pytk

wait no i have platotk

is platotk and pytk the same

[gaunt gust]

I don't think so

they're by the same person

[exotic pagoda]

hm

• TMXL Map Toolkit 1.22.2-unofficial.1-strobe because it requires mods which aren't installed (PyTK: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1726)

maybe i have the wrong tmxl?

[cerulean swallow]

thank you ;-; so after this I can add any mod I want ? or still need to re-check it

[gaunt gust]

let's get sve up and running first

we can add more mods later

I linked you to this guide because SVE is exceptionally complex and it helps to have it installed correctly first if you're going to use it

[exotic pagoda]

lets goo no more red text

ok now theres yellow text

should i be concerened about save serializer

am i gonna lose my 11 year file

[gaunt gust]

yellow is fine

[cerulean swallow]

okay thank you 🙏🏻

[exotic pagoda]

all hail @gaunt gust for being the mod god

[topaz matrix]

oh

[small sorrel]

thx

[scarlet thunder]

uhh so

[gaunt gust]

what is the message precisely?

what OS are you on?

[topaz matrix]

me contemplating whether or to download sve

[scarlet thunder]

"a fatal error was encountered. The library "hostpolicy.dll" required to run the application was not found"

[gaunt gust]

reinstall the game?

completely uninstall it, delete the game directory, and reinstall

make sure you're not on the legacy branch

[scarlet thunder]

okay

[gaunt gust]

also I gotta run, sorry

if this doesn't work, look in the game directory for hostpolicy.dll and make sure it exists

[scarlet thunder]

okay

[gaunt gust]

look into StardewModdingAPI.runtimeconfig.json to make sure it's using the copy of NET 5.0 bundled with stardew and is not looking for a seperate installation

if you want to install net 5.0, make sure to install Runtime (SDK will also work but that's actually for developers)

[scarlet thunder]

oh

[gaunt gust]

Runtime Desktop, sorry

SDK should also work - it bundles Runtime - but you also shouldn't need it

[scarlet thunder]

yeah, already installed it

[topaz matrix]

did u figure it out?

[sonic marsh]

@clear eagle @mighty flax i tried to download again, directly from nexus, not from a bundle

nothing changes

[topaz matrix]

get me up to speed here i want to help

[sonic marsh]

sure, one sec, let me launch the game again, so i can get the message

nevermind, i kinda fixed it by accident

[topaz matrix]

good to know

[sonic marsh]

i was getting this error

even tho i had the mod installed

turns out i was extracting the entire folder, which shouldnt be a problem

[muted pagoda]

'this folder contains files, but none of them are manifiest' ?

that's what that looks like it would make

[sonic marsh]

the main [DGA] folder contains a manifest file

[muted pagoda]

yeah, I meant if you just put it in a folder, that was probably the error it was giving

[sonic marsh]

ooh, got it

you mean the main folder doesnt have a manifest, so the game doesnt recognize as a valid mod

[muted pagoda]

smapi generally stops when it finds a folder with files in it, yes

otherwise nested folders are fine

[alpine hazel]

Can someone help me download stardew valley expanded

cause it is not working

[slender pike]

so i tried to load my game after getting the sve update https://smapi.io/log/943ea70ce5e14f5787bd404fef82751a

[topaz matrix]

what is the trouble with downloading it

[harsh valve]

how do i update mods from nexus? is it just downloading it again and replacing the files in my mods folder?

[topaz matrix]

yes

[topaz matrix]

are u sure it is sve causing the error

[harsh valve]

ok, but for something like the tractor mod, wouldnt that get rid of my tractor shed?

[topaz matrix]

nope

[topaz matrix]

u need to reverify your game

[slender pike]

thats thru steam right?

[topaz matrix]

yes

[slender pike]

ok i know how to do that, thanks!

[topaz matrix]

if it does it again come back with a new log

[topaz matrix]

did it work right

[sonic marsh]

@topaz matrixall our work was in vain, i use Challenging Comunity Center Bundles, and that doesnt work with new DGA version on PPJA

[slender pike]

it deleted my save but thats fine because i was only two days in lmao
so yeah it worked fine thanks!

[vernal charm]

Hello, I need some help. I'm playing Stardew Valley with the Expanded mod on the PC via the XBox app. But whenever I want to save a game, this error message comes up and I don't quite understand what the reason is. I have all the appropriate versions of the mods I need.

[magic cedar]

Hey guys how did you get your pyTK working? I downloaded the unoffical latest one from the link but it still says it's no longer compatible

[lament prairie]

I'm going to guess you either a) downloaded the wrong one b) didn't unzip or c) didn't place in mods folder

(some common mistakes people make, it could be something else though)

[lament prairie]

Your permissions might be broken

[magic cedar]

It's this one right? "PyTK 1.22.9-unofficial.1-strobe.zip"

[lament prairie]

Hard to tell from this error, I've seen it once, but I forget the resolution

[lament prairie]

Yup, that sounds right.

But it needs to be unzipped

[gaunt gust]

this one is the hotfix thing

the JA hotfix thing.

sadly

[lament prairie]

Huh, I forgot it was XML document

[gaunt gust]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[scarlet thunder]

Nope

[gaunt gust]

it screws with one trasnpiler and because of that it can't save.

[scarlet thunder]

So umm, help

[lament prairie]

Mei, you're probably not going to be able to use SVE with Game Pass until Microsoft releases the fix

[magic cedar]

Strange, I unzipped it along with all the other mods I added... Were there any other potential resolutions?

[lament prairie]

Microsoft is being a slowpoke

[lament prairie]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[lament prairie]

Just so I can take a look and see what your game thinks is up

[gaunt gust]

Mac/Linux? You have to fix the permissions for pytk for Mac/Linux for some unknown reason

[scarlet thunder]

Help

Hostpolicy.dll something in smapi

[gaunt gust]

you willing to set core whatever to 1 for me for more debugging?

[scarlet thunder]

?

[gaunt gust]

oh, that's not in the error message?

huh. Okay. Interesting. Different error message than I thought

(this is why I usually ask for the exact error message)

and, you know, operating system version. Would you happen to be on Windows 7?

[scarlet thunder]

"the application was rum as a sel contained app because (file path) did not specify a framework"

[magic cedar]

I'm on Mac, I followed the bot and posted the error log as well. It's telling me to update some things. I will try this first

[scarlet thunder]

Dat

[gaunt gust]

are you absolutely sure you're running smapi 3.13.2

that sounds like smapi 3.13.1 to me.

[scarlet thunder]

Yes

Ofc

[gaunt gust]

!log no seriously

[native dragon]

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

[scarlet thunder]

Lemme reinstall it

Just to see

[vernal charm]

Oh, I didn't know that. I thought the problem was already fixed. Then I guess I'll wait a little longer. Anyway, thank you very much.

[topaz matrix]

okay

[scarlet thunder]

Yup, still not working

[gaunt gust]

are you absolutely sure you're running the latest version of Stardew and are not on a legacy branch?

If you are on Windows, are you sure you have the latest updates for your operating system?

[scarlet thunder]

Not sure

[scarlet thunder]

Yah

[magic cedar]

This is what I got: It says my mods aren't updated even though they are...

[gaunt gust]

I need to see your actual log. Seriously

I do not care what a screenshot says, or a screenshot of your working directory.

There are specific statements found in the TRACE section of the log I am looking for

When we ask for a log, we mean the whole log.

[magic cedar]

Okok, gimme one sec. Thanks for the assistance btw!

[magic cedar]

I need to post the SMAPI-latest.txt right?

I mean, he's found the log function, he just needs to send us the link 😛

[magic cedar]

https://smapi.io/log/caa056ad3cb64e1f98360bd5ba6bb6c5

I'm so sorry that took me so long, my brain for some reason wasn't making the connection it needed to lmao. I swear I'm not usually this incompetent

[gaunt gust]

yeah you need the unofficial pytk

[warm kettle]

this here

[magic cedar]

This one right? And then I just add the folder to my mod folder?

[lament prairie]

Well the good news is that you do have updated SMAPI and SDV

Yes, you may want to delete the old one for good measure

It's not always required to delete the old one but if you're having problems it can help sometimes

[gaunt gust]

you need to unzip the new one, yeah

[magic cedar]

That's the one I tried adding already, I'll try it one more time though and delete the other one(s)

[gaunt gust]

did you unzip the new one?

[magic cedar]

Yes

[gaunt gust]

after you unzip, on mac you need to fix the permissions

for some reason it's wrong on mac/linux

[lament prairie]

right click, get info

scroll down on the get info popup thingy

find the permissions section

[magic cedar]

i'm at the permissions section. It said I am able to "read and write"

[gaunt gust]

that's right, yeah.

but I think you need to do it for every file in the directory

there's a magic mac way to do that

[magic cedar]

ooooooooooh, do tell

[gaunt gust]

uhh...I run Windows and Linux, I don't actually know, I just know it exists

somewhere in that menu

[magic cedar]

rip, I only have like 30 mods... I might just speedily check them 1 by 1

[gaunt gust]

"Click the Action pop-up menu , then choose “Apply to enclosed items”."

https://support.apple.com/en-hk/guide/mac-help/mchlp1203/mac

knew it was somewhere in my search history

"be glad you weren't just told to chmod 755 -cR ." (The command line is mostly the same between Mac and Linux)

[magic cedar]

They were all already assigned to "read and write" for me

[gaunt gust]

huh

try it, send log if it fails?

[magic cedar]

Same issue: https://smapi.io/log/ff1d0cf913fc46a4a549fc505742603e

[gaunt gust]

strobe's version?

after deleting the old version?

[kindred glade]

Has it happened to anyone that after the stardew update some events are seen with a black screen? Either mod, it doesn't matter and it doesn't generate an error in the log.

[lament prairie]

At the least, if you successfully delete the old version the error should turn into "no pytk found"

[magic cedar]

I'll try deleting all the pytks and try that

[scarlet thunder]

@gaunt gust i fixed it

bruh

just installed an older version

of smapi

[magic cedar]

That's so weird. I uninstalled all the PyTks and I keep getting the same message

To uninstall it all you need to do is remove it from the mod folder right?

[lament prairie]

Yup

So something is going wrong with your mods folder

Can you check the filepath against what the smapi website tells you?

[magic cedar]

I used to have an old mod folder... Could it be going to that one?

[lament prairie]

You log says "Mods go here: /Users/connormcfadden/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOS/Mods"

So check that that's where you're putting things/deleting things

You can check the filepath of a folder with right click get info

If it's an alias, right click and go to original

[magic cedar]

Took the question right out of my mouth. Thank you!

That seems like the issue, the file I'm using says "stardew mods"

[deft nebula]

what does this mean?

[lament prairie]

That is definitely the wrong folder, try command G and paste the filepath I said above

Then save an alias of the mods folder somewhere nice

(You can make an alias of a folder with right click make alias)

[gaunt gust]

version of smapi/game mismatch probably

update smapi by going to smapi.io , unzipping the download, and running the installer for your os

[deft nebula]

ok

[magic cedar]

Found my old mod folder! You called it, that explains all the out of date mods as well. Thank you @lament prairie and @gaunt gust; you're both amazing and I love you both

Alrighty... Re-added pyTK. If this doesn't work I will cry

[lament prairie]

This is slightly bad advice, but if keeping mods updated is difficult I find it easier to do in batches whenever there's a pressing reason to do so, like 1.5.5 coming out.

(if you don't update mods, it's not the end of the world, but they do sometimes break/you find a bug)

[gaunt gust]

it's not bad advice

guess who's not on the latest version of spacecore either

[lament prairie]

my log: "You can update 7 mods:"

[storm osprey]

I'm trying to update everything to get SVE working again since 1.5.5 dropped, but I ended up messing it up and now the game won't open at all.

[lament prairie]

When you open the game, what icon do you see?

Or is there not even an icon that pops up?

[storm osprey]

Well, I get the command prompt, but it stops there. Lots of red text & errors

[lament prairie]

[lament prairie]

I don't have anything along those lines, but I can point you to Pathos' stuff (bottom of smapi.io website)

[magic cedar]

I'll have a look, the work that all of you do for this game is phenomenal!

[storm osprey]

Ok, I downloaded PyTK 1.22.9 - how do I install this version, since I can't go through ModDrop?

[gaunt gust]

can you find your mod directory?

[lament prairie]

Conveniently the smapi website tells you "Mods go here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods"

[storm osprey]

So I just unzip the file there? I'm sorry I'm asking obvious questions, it's just that's what I did earlier and I'm not sure where I went wrong.

[gaunt gust]

I would undeploy pytk from moddrop first

then unzip in there

[lament prairie]

Maybe also delete old PyTK?

[gaunt gust]

(I say this because I know Nexus does Fun Things with Symlinks)

Anyone have really good mods for the players' kids? Most "kids to npcs" mods I find are either out of date or rather buggy

[lament prairie]

I think that sums up the state of all kid to NPC mods

[gaunt gust]

they're all buggy because the C# mod they rely on is buggy

[calm heron]

I see

Well, thanks!

[storm osprey]

I got it working!! I had to uninstall then reinstall SVE after updating the other mods. Thanks for your help!!

[deft nebula]

it was! thank you so much

[crisp osprey]

just out of curiosity do 1.5 mods work on 1.5.5

its really hard to find mods updated for 1.5.5

[gaunt gust]

!compat

[native dragon]

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

[lament prairie]

Most of them do

There's probably no nexus tag for 1.5.5

[gaunt gust]

(there should be one I think)

(like, it doesn't exist, but I think someone should make one)

[sage arch]

Hey I am back with a bit more time. I think I have successfully transferred my mods to be installed manually but I still crash when I load my save

What do you you fellas reccomend?

[clear eagle]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[outer turret]

most should be okay actualy

[dire fractal]

how do i fix this?

[lament prairie]

read the red text and install/delete mods accordingly

[gaunt gust]

I'm pretty sure you took a mod out of its folder....

[lament prairie]

for example, the first line means you have a random mod that extracted its i18n folder somewhere wrong

[gaunt gust]

accidentally

[dire fractal]

not rly i just downloaded the newest stardew mod

expanded

i dont rly care ab the rest just SVE

[lament prairie]

You showed us a tiny bit of the log

So I can't tell you everything you still need to do

But the red text does tell you

[#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 linked from here: https://smapi.io/mods/#PyTK (for PyTK) and https://smapi.io/mods/#TMXL_Map_Toolkit (for TMXL) As of versions unofficial.1-strobe, download the 1st file in the forum post for PyTK, and the 2nd file for TXMLoader. (If these get another unofficial update, you may need to read the forum post for details.)
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 linked here: https://smapi.io/mods/#Custom_Music (4th zip file on forum post) If you're having issues with music starting to play and then stopping, try this update.
5. Stardew Valley Expanded has been updated for 1.5.5. Make sure you have all of its components and all of its dependencies updated. Also, it bundles a version of Custom Music, so you may want to delete that before installing." - @lament prairie (05 Dec 2021 @ 09:48:16 PM UTC)

[lament prairie]

If your SVE was telling you something before you didn't like, read the above for clarifications

(like "pytk isn't compatible")

[dire fractal]

https://smapi.io/log/59eb8351de4a41f2b4727fad8a199c44

ok ill redownload it

[lament prairie]

your log looks fine now

were you having some issue?

I see that you don't have some of the red text from above anymore

[dire fractal]

yea i downloaded the new pytk

i didnt know there was a new version

[jagged hound]

holy logs, finally playing a super modded game and there are so many logs

[clear eagle]

Time to get 136 fishing streak back

[jagged hound]

only mod i wanted that i couldn't install was the aquarium mod and that's because it's incompatible with TFO. i left a post on the mod page though, hopefully they ping me in this server and we can figure out how to make it compatible

oh no...

[sour stream]

is there a mod that makes the people you didnt marry, marry each other? Like if you marry Penny for example, Leah & Elliot or Sebastian & Abigail might marry each other?

[lone canyon]

has anyone used the mod called Coii’s Girl Sets Pack😓

it’s a clothing mod, but i can’t figure out how to actually use the clothing lol

[fierce skiff]

anyone know how to fix this?

[shy orbit]

!log might be useful to see the whole log

[native dragon]

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

[shy orbit]

clothes are items, usually you need either a store or an item spawner of some sort to get them

[subtle frigate]

has anyone has issues today where you hit load and the farm you want and it goes back to the white enter screen and basically reboots the game?

[shy orbit]

!log your log too might have useful information

[native dragon]

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

[dire fractal]

@tired brook Thank you very much for your help! I had to remove Comodo for it to install properly.

[subtle frigate]

ok I think by this that TMXL got corrupted I'm using the unofficial version which is what 1.5.5 and smapi need

[naive drum]

'XML Document' in this case means the save file, generally

[shy orbit]

hm, looks like a removed item corrupted the save file

[naive drum]

multiple spouse dialogues is really upset too

[shy orbit]

but i'm not sure

[naive drum]

"DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path '/home/silverheartkenarik/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Mods/Multiple Spouse Dialogs/MultipleSpouseDialog/Assets'."

that's a pretty long filepath...

is that a new mod?

like, one you installed and then the problem started happening?

[subtle frigate]

Oh Gods that mod... I've had nothing but trouble from that one, but my kids love it

[sour stream]

nice, thanks!

[subtle frigate]

oh gods no. it's been giving me fits since I installed the last version

[naive drum]

Maybe trim its name?

[shy orbit]

!saves you could try rolling back a save to see if it fixes the (apparent) save corruption

[native dragon]

@subtle frigate Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.

[naive drum]

Not any of its internal folders, but the Multiple Spouse Dialogs wrapper folder could be shortened to MSD, see if that makes it cause less problems - also yeah roll back your save file 1 day

[subtle frigate]

I've been tempted to just remove it, I don't need it as I do not want poly partners

[naive drum]

(game and smapi both keep backups)

[shy orbit]

the multiple spouse dialog problem seems like a capitalization problem

[subtle frigate]

I have not done anything other than unzip and move that one

[shy orbit]

in the nexus file list the folder is assets instead of Assets

[naive drum]

resdtfg capitalizations

[shy orbit]

(and with that type of a mod it could be a problem)

[subtle frigate]

Deleting it now

[clear eagle]

Life Cycle

[subtle frigate]

reloading the game to see if what I did helped

[hot snow]

I'm trying to use "Yet Another Harvest With Scythe Mod" But its giving me this error in the log https://smapi.io/log/26fb74f0ed4942e29ff84cab964d1410 and is loading the config. Strange thing is it works for my gf on her macbook pro but not for me on windows 11. Pls Help :(

[naive drum]

that's the console text, not a log

[hot snow]

oh

uh

sorry one sec haha

[subtle frigate]

well it solved the Multiple Spouse error but not the other one so I think I'm just going to delete both of the farms and completely start over. It's not a big loss I hadn't gotten very far in either game, still year 1 on both.

[shy orbit]

did you remove any mods before it happened?

[subtle frigate]

I removed all the multiple spouse mods, they have given me nothing but trouble and Free Love is the one for 1.5.5

[shy orbit]

well, if it was the multiple spouses that corrupted the save it's fine, but if it didn't the problem mod is still in your setup which is not great

[subtle frigate]

but if I can delete the saved farms and then get the log from after I've deleted them, I can hop[efully find out what went wrong

https://smapi.io/log/fd3a8c182cbd450a9d93969b872f036b Post delete log and there are many fewer errors only 4

[naive drum]

yeah that's really just the one error - you have a non-mod folder in your Mods folder

its named Content and it's probably full of XNBs

[subtle frigate]

let me see if I can find it and if I can I will delete it

found it and it's now gone!

[hot snow]

How would i fetch the error log on the windows version of the game? I can't find anything online

[naive drum]

!log has instructions

[native dragon]

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

[hot snow]

i tried that and it didnt work

i believe thats specific to the steam version

[subtle frigate]

That fixed it, thank you all very much!

[naive drum]

it isn't specific to the steam version puppy

[clear eagle]

It's generic for Windows

[naive drum]

it's OS-specific and that site has instrutions for all four relevant operating system

[clear eagle]

Doesn't matter you use Steam or GOG or Gamepass, it will always be there.

[hot snow]

??

i also had a search though the appdata file and i cant find it

through*

[naive drum]

that's extremely odd because that sounds like you don't have stardew valley installed at all

[hot snow]

i can tell u it there haha

[naive drum]

even without SMAPI, it puts its save files and screenshots there!

[hot snow]

its*

[naive drum]

are there any other users on your computer?

[clear eagle]

Can you just %appdata%?

[naive drum]

yeah that too

[hot snow]

nope i dont

yes i can

[naive drum]

OK now you're in appdata via %appdata% go look in Roaming for stardew valley

[hot snow]

yea ive done that

it aint there

[naive drum]

have you ran stardew valley at all since you last updated it

[hot snow]

yep

was playing earlier today

[naive drum]

how'd you get stardew

[hot snow]

ill run it onbce more

through gamepass

i was gogin to buy it on steam the day it went up on there haha

[naive drum]

okay so gamepass stores its saves in a different spot, but the logs should still be in roaming

[hot snow]

yea its just not there

uh

I fopund it!

found*

C:\Users(user here)\AppData\Local\Packages\ConcernedApe.StardewValleyPC_0c8vynj4cqe4e\LocalCache\Roaming\StardewValley

[naive drum]

ertyjh local???

[hot snow]

apparently

[naive drum]

@tired brook user above me found their SMAPI logs were going to appdata local instead of appdata roaming - theyre on gamepass

[hot snow]

now that thats sorted this is the original problem with the correct link haha

[naive drum]

https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/unofficial-mod-updates.2096/page-88#post-58317 looks like you need to install this

it's the latest update of Stardew Hack and its on the forums for some reason

and if that fails it's probably because the gamepass version shipped with a problem or something, and the patch is supposed to be out but...gamepass.

[hot snow]

that didnt work but thankls for trying :)

[cyan wraith]

What do I do if the game immedeately stops responding when you try to load your save

[shy orbit]

!log send this here

[native dragon]

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

[clear eagle]

What CPA mods do you guys use?👀

[late nebula]

Is that a recommendation request or a concern?

Hyper Realistic Coins is the only one I use and with the animations turned off. I'm tempted to remove the dependency in the manifest so I can get rid of CPA entirely.

[knotty basalt]

https://smapi.io/log/7e811c60106d41af9bcf8738348f2718

does anyone knows why its shows a warning at the end?

[shy orbit]

hm, you're getting the same type of content patcher warning for few mods, invalid input arguments (*NPC NAME*) for Hearts token. have you modified those mods yourself? otherwise seems like it could be a content patcher bug

[knotty basalt]

i haven't done anything to them

and it doesn't crash, it just keeps going until i close the game

[shy orbit]

okay. it's a little strange, it's giving the warning for Sandy too (who is a vanilla NPC obviously). and it's coming from ES and SVE so it's not a mod problem i'd think

[knotty basalt]

so how should i fix this

[shy orbit]

@outer turret Ignored [CP] East Scarpe > EditMap Maps/Custom_EastScarpe #11: the When field is invalid: invalid input arguments (DuckNPC) for Hearts token do you know anything about this? https://smapi.io/log/7e811c60106d41af9bcf8738348f2718

[outer turret]

Well presumably but I think it's just a custom companion additon. Hmm...

Maybe its cos the duck is antisocial?

[shy orbit]

i was just thinking that all of those npcs only become social after some point if at all (Apples, Sandy, the duck)

but i don't remember content patcher warning you about it before

maybe CP just added the warning and it will work normally after they become social

or even exist in the game i guess

[knotty basalt]

so you say i should just wait

[shy orbit]

if you don't have any of those npcs at a friendable stage in your game i'd think so

[clear eagle]

I'm already making DGA version of it. Will let you know when I finish

I feel like it shouldn't cause any fps drops

[waxen lava]

I got a similar warning back when I was putting my NPC's disposition behind a When token. I guess because they don't technically exist in the heart code yet CP doesn't view them as a valid asset name or something.

[outer turret]

Yeh I'll change it to hasSeenEvent. It's just a custom companion spawn point so nothing major.

[dire fractal]

hey so i havent played in a couple months but i just tried launching smapi and it wont open im not sure what to do or how i fix

[late nebula]

There has been a big update so I would start with updating smapi if you haven't.

[dire fractal]

how do i go about that without mucking it all up

[late nebula]

Download it from smapi.io

Then unzip and run it

Then we can go from there if you have issues

I also recommend testing on a new save until you get everything going again.

Especially if you have a save that's long. Wouldn't want to mess it up.

[dire fractal]

ouch ok thanks noted

[harsh drum]

Anyone know some good mods for SVE exept the default?

[keen crow]

Go to the mod page, look at requirements, mods need this mod, have fun

[harsh drum]

I mean like extra mods that work with SVE like Automate

[knotty basalt]

east scarp, ridgeside village, hardew valley

[late nebula]

There are a ton of mods that work with SVE.

[harsh drum]

😮

[late nebula]

Many will say in the description if they are compatible or incompatible. So it mostly just comes down to what you are wanting.

[harsh drum]

Ok

[rancid cove]

I kinda worry on this since I am trying to put the SVE mods

anyway does this effected my save file?

[dire fractal]

no, only if u remove the mods and load the farm

[finite lake]

This is why you should make backups

Smapi even does this before loading with mods

[late nebula]

That's normal and not an issue most of the time.

[kind heart]

Hello
i have a problem with the recent SMAPI update

the launcher closes shortly after "waiting for game to launch" appears

I updated all mods, have an unofficial update for PyTK and reinstalled the enitre game althogether

does anyone know a fix to this?

[livid magnet]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gaioDNjDC7x1TWBF1zdn1Hy3EW9ua3uIJCCs-7Q-kfg/edit?usp=drivesdk

[harsh drum]

Holy moly

[livid magnet]

I am glad i did. When I built my new rig I was able to open it up and just start pulling.

Made my setup easy.

And I just updated it on Sunday so it's works. I frequently try new things.

[fading plinth]

Hello, I installed the mod 1.13.2 today and encountered this error

Can I get some help plz?

[livid magnet]

Put up your SMapi log, it's easier to figure it out if we can see the parser whole log. SMapi. Io (and go to log paraer

[fading plinth]

thanks!

Well, I cant find the error file in that diretory

[livid magnet]

https://smapi.io/log

[fading plinth]

I know, I entered that command too

[livid magnet]

If you use the log parser directions it tells you how to bring up the SMapi log using the windows cmd.

It didn't open a separate window that says SMapi latest crash error log?

[fading plinth]

It's says Windows can't find 'C/Users\user\AppData\Roaming\StardewValley\ErrorLogs'

[keen crow]

Cause your account name isn't called user

[fading plinth]

nvm. I think I should reinstall whole game and try again

[keen crow]

!reset Could try resetting instead

[native dragon]

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

Hey guys, I have over 122 mods installed and the game takes REALLY long to load (takes 15 minutes or longer and I have a SSD) is there anyway to make it load somewhat faster?

I had 140+ mods before but I tried removing many of them for the sake of game to load faster but it only loaded slightly faster compared to last time

[shy orbit]

!log could be normal, but if there is something wrong it can probably be seen from the log

[native dragon]

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

[shy orbit]

15 minutes is a lot for 122 mods though

but it depends on your computer and the type of mods

SDV loading is mostly reliant on CPU single core speed i'm pretty sure

[mortal sparrow]

Alright wait

[mortal sparrow]

https://smapi.io/log/1743b466b1204b8ca2a773478aa87c81

[clear eagle]

You need custom cask mod and....

Don't use Vortex

[shy orbit]

doesn't look like the game loaded fully

[mortal sparrow]

I had custom cask mod on

wait let me retry

without vortex

[clear eagle]

Also reinstall Love of Cooking UI Recolor, Simple Crop Label, Stardew Aquarium, Rich Presence, Zoom Level

[mortal sparrow]

I don't need simple crop label since I have UI Suite 2

does the same thing but more

ok wait I will retry

[mortal sparrow]

The gap between that is really long for some reason

[shy orbit]

long pauses without seemingly anything happening

[mortal sparrow]

yeah is that anyway to speed it up

[shy orbit]

i've heard something about the unofficial pytk causing it, but i don't know

and no fix that i know of

[mortal sparrow]

that's a bummer

what about json assets taking so long

[normal raft]

does anyone know whats wrong ? i opened it a few days ago just fie but today it like this whenever i open it

[shy orbit]

if you enable trace messages in the log site you can see more messages between there

[clear eagle]

Have you updated the game to 1.5.5?

[normal raft]

theres no update notice on steam

how do i update ?

[mortal sparrow]

go to steam and go to the downloads section

it should prompt there

like that for example

[normal raft]

here ?

nothings showing up..

should i just reinstall ?

[clear eagle]

like the update was released since Nov 31 or Dec 1

Yea try reinstalling.

[shy orbit]

would you try to remove generic mod config menu and see if the loading gets faster? i don't think it will, but just to try

[clear eagle]

can you launch vanilla sdv?

[normal raft]

then thats not the problem because i played just last weekend

[mortal sparrow]

alright

[normal raft]

i have no idea how

[shy orbit]

if it gets stuck for minutes no need to let it load fully if you don't want to

[mortal sparrow]

https://smapi.io/log/5b82aa1eabf24db7bcb4a3bad985aa71

[shy orbit]

alright. so about the same place and nothing changed. thanks

[mortal sparrow]

should I try downgrading to x86 and see if that makes a difference

[shy orbit]

smapi doesn't support that version, unless you mean the old 1.5.4

[clear eagle]

remove the launch options and launch stardew valley

[mortal sparrow]

how can I make it playable for now

[clear eagle]

Remove heavy mods?

[shy orbit]

doesn't seem to be a problem with heavy mods. everything goes smoothly except for those two pauses

[mortal sparrow]

yea I disabled one of the heavy mods earlier and it's the same loading

time

[shy orbit]

if it's pytk, then the only option is to play without mods that require it i guess

[mortal sparrow]

if I remove that then I can't play most of the mods

I might as well play vanilla at that point

oh god now that I realize if that's just the game starting up, imagine how long it will take to load a save?

[valid girder]

you can try to remove all the mods, and try booting it with just pytk and the mods that need it, see how it then boots

or just pytk

[shy orbit]

just pytk wouldn't be bad yeah. if it still takes long, then without it to confirm it

[harsh drum]

Does anyone know how to use FTM?

[lament prairie]

that sounds like a #making-mods-general question; what is the actual question?

[harsh drum]

Like i know you can edit stuff like that in FTM but i don't know how kinda

[lament prairie]

Edit stuff like what?

[harsh drum]

Like add stumps and foragebals

[shy orbit]

yep, it's possible with FTM. but more #making-mods-general question

[tired brook]

Does that still happen if you temporarily remove PyTK? I see PyTK patching the logic in the error's stack trace.

Re your edit on the wiki, are you sure the PC Game Pass paths are under %appdata%\Local and not %localappdata%?

[tired brook]

Yeah, the logs always go in the same place as the saves (wherever that is for the platform).

you don't have to install those, only the ones it says you need to run the Expanded mod

you can if you want to though

[novel yacht]

Thank you so much! I've got the hang of installing them and checking smapi but how do you actually activate them or do they do that by themselves?

[valid girder]

I suggest to follow the Guide on the instructions page of the mod, it tells you where to put it and what you need. If you have done that, you can just boot the game and SMAPI does the rest

[silent shadow]

Any good reference for modding SPECIFICALLY on mobile (Android)??

[shy orbit]

!androidsmapi something basic at least

[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.

[hoary bane]

If I were to hypothetically install an Npc mod, create a new save, and talk to the Npc in that save, would deleting the mod give me a "To prevent a crash, smapi blah blah blah, did you delete a Npc?" text if I were to open another save in which I have not yet interacted with the custom npc?

Or only in the save where I've spoken to them?

[royal arrow]

That error is just SMAPI saying "you had a custom NPC on this save I couldn't find, so I cleaned up the data on the save"

It's save specific

[hoary bane]

Is it? So getting that text whenever I boot up the save is normal?

[hoary bane]

Oooh, lovely. Thank you thank you

[royal arrow]

You'll see that error whenever you load that save, until you save again. Say you had that error in game on a Tuesday. If you end the day and progress to Wednesday, the next time you load that save, you won't see the warning

[hoary bane]

Aye that's best news I've heard all day

Thank you very much

[novel yacht]

So I've installed all the extra mods needed but now smapi is giving me a message that the PYTK mod couldn't be run because it isn't compatible even though it's the most up-to-date 😅 the pain

[royal arrow]

The error should include a link to smapi.o/mods

To get the unofficial update

I imagine someone will also shortly send you a link

[royal arrow]

There you are

[valid girder]

[dire fractal]

Is there no way to stop UIinfoSuite 2 from resetting its settings every time you reload a save?

[valid girder]

you can change the config to what you want

to disable and enable stuff

[normal raft]

what to do

i can open my vanilla game but when i reinstalled smapi i cant open it

[neat plaza]

that's what they're saying

it resets the config every time

[valid girder]

oh my bad, i thought they meant in the game the settings tab that info suite has

cause that also resetted for me every time I loaded a save, but changed the config in the file kept it

[dire fractal]

I haven't tried changing the config file itself, I'll try it.

Is there a way to get rid of hotkey options in configs for things I won't use? Can I just comment that part out in the config?

[robust bison]

I think you can just put null

[dire fractal]

Ok, I'll try it thanks

[tired brook]

(I overhauled game doesn't launch in the troubleshooting guide for Stardew Valley 1.5.5: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_doesn.27t_launch. This also combines all the previous game-doesn't-launch sections into one.)

it seems like spacecore is making my smapi loads forever

how do i deal with that

does anyone know how to trigger sprite spring's event

Like right Null in the spot it had the hotkeys in? I commented it out and it wouldn't load the mod. So I guess I can try that.

[hearty wedge]

Let's say I want to have a really massive Stardew experience. Like, I've done the base game and SVE before... What's my next step? What should I add to give the game some more replayablity?

[royal arrow]

There are other expansion mods like Ridgeside Village, East Scarpe, Deep Woods, Gem Isles, Mermaid Island, Boarding House, Junimo Cove, Walk to the Desert, and Downtown Zuzu. (I probably missed a few)
Just depends on what you're after. Also keep in mind that the more big expansion mods you use, the more likely you are to have performance issues

[robust bison]

for expansion mods, look into RSV, ES, LASV, etc

[dire fractal]

So writing null in the " " part still caused it to fail in the gameloop.

[robust bison]

I just checked the wiki, put none

[dire fractal]

Ok will try that, thanks

[hearty wedge]

Is there an easy way to check compatibility between some of these larger mods?

[dire fractal]

I've played with East Scarp, Ridgeside, SVE, Boarding House, Walk to the Desert, Stardew Aquarium, Mermaid Island and more together, so they work, just read the mod page usually will tell you about what they might conflict with.

[hearty wedge]

Thanks!

[unreal stratus]

All of those mods should be compatible with each other

Make sure you get Walk to the Desert Redux

[royal arrow]

Read the mod descriptions

[dire fractal]

none worked, however I changed the options for UI Info Suite 2 in the config itself to what I wanted (False or True) and it reset them in game anyways, this is kinda annoying lol

[warm aurora]

I'm trying to run stardew after taking a break and uninstalling, then reinstalling through steam. Using all the same mods as before, but when I try to run it through the modded icon it crashes as soon as a window pops up, all in a split second. It works fine when I try running it non-modded. Any suggestions?

[turbid sparrow]

is there a mod to make my friend want to play again? 😔

[neat plaza]

do you have smapi 3.13?

[warm aurora]

Omg I can't believe I forgot to update it. That fixed it, thanks!

[merry olive]

I had the same issue but I solved it by doing something that someone recommended in the comments section of the original UI info suite mod! his comment was basically “TLDR: Look in Stardew Valley\Mods\UIInfoSuite2\data for a json file that matches the name of your save file, and try editing it to have the settings you want and see if that helps.”

[hoary bane]

Errr, expansion mods maybe?

[merry olive]

he also explained it in more detail in the actual comment section, head to page 2 of comments and look for haywud’s reply

[glad relic]

can someone help me with this? https://smapi.io/log/ea096f30cb6d4cc1aa8ec587c5460a14
chest anywhere mod isn't working for me, and I saw 4 errors on smapi but I can't read it

[wet harness]

I'm trying to use some PPJA mods with Last Day To Plant, and it asks for my PPJA file paths in the config. But each PPJA mod has two folders you put in the Mods folder (i.e. [JA] Fruits and Veggies and [MFM] Fruits and Veggies)...which one do I use as the path for Last Day To Plant? Or would I just put the Mods folder itself as the PPJA path, since both are in there?
I did look around on the LDTP page to see if anyone else had the same issue and, while there was one person who did, they only said in a later comment that they got it to work and didn't say how, and none of the PPJA documentation says which to use either >.<"

[chrome cosmos]

how is it not working exactly?

[hearty wedge]

I see most mods are suggesting DSV. I haven't messed with mods in almost 2 years... I used to use Seasonal Outfits. What differences are there? Is DSV just more up to date/compatible or something?

[chrome cosmos]

here's an explanation on the additional features from one of the DSV devs! #archived-modded-support message

i personally enjoy DSV a lot more

[normal raft]

so i cant open the game because the pytk mod is apparently not compatible but i in nexus thats the newst one so what now

It says no errors, but tmxl map toolkit always fails those mods on a new day.

It should look like this.

Chest anywhere only works on some of my save files, but not my current save

[golden monolith]

windows defender keeps blocking the SMAPI updated file anyone know how to fix this?

[late nebula]

It looks like you fixed most of your problems? You just need Bus Locations. Kinda out of date so might need to check smapi.io/mods for an up to date version.https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2905

[dire fractal]

Turn it off

Then turn it back on after

[harsh drum]

Thx

[golden monolith]

Ive tried and there's not really a turn it off button. Windows made it pretty much impossible to turn it off

[glad relic]

@chrome cosmos nevermind, I just realized I only had 1 chest. probably why it didn't show up lol

[dire fractal]

Well you can turn it off easily with regedit. But you can just literally go into your settings and turn off every service for virus protection. I've done it recently. @golden monolith

[late nebula]

Might want to go through updates just in case anything is conflicting. Which mods are those maps from?

[golden monolith]

I have regedit open where do I find it?

[dire fractal]

Best to look up a video for it.

[dire fractal]

The updates my log shows are false. I've checked several times. All my mods are up to date and I have all the Unofficial updates needed. The Island one is from Mermaid Island mod, the Underwater mods are from the Swim Mod

[bright sun]

does anyone have the link for the smapi page that tells us the shortcut drections we need to post in steam for smapi to work?

[wet harness]

If anyone comes up with an answer/idea for my PPJA question just @ me, in case I miss it and it gets buried ^^; ty!

[harsh drum]

Does anyone know any mods like SVE Ridgeside and scarp?

[dire fractal]

Mermaid Island maybe? Stardew Aquarium adds a new location, Walk to the Desert Redux has a whole new area. In what way do you mean "like"

[harsh drum]

I mean mods that add new places and npc's and stuff like that

[hoary bane]

Sve?

[lapis void]

i'm not 100% sure how last day to plant works, but the actual items for PPJA mods are in their own subfolders inside the JA folder. the MFM folder just adds mail related to PPJA items, like quests and teaching recipes

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.

[wet harness]

Do you happen to know if the mods will still work if you leave them in the [PPJA] folder in the Mods directory rather than having JA and MFM directly in the Mods folder, in case LDTP is looking for the [PPJA] folder as a whole for some reason? Or would that break things?

[late nebula]

I looked about and didn't find anything specific.

is there a particular reason you haven't updated your game and SMAPI?

serialize something and generate a file

[glass apex]

yes it is

cause i want to use many mods

[native dragon]

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

[lapis void]

most of your mods should be working and/or have unofficial updates. as long as you get unofficial pytk/tmxl 90% of things will work

[late nebula]

I kind of wonder what happens if you try to go there. Morbid curiosity..

[lapis void]

the site that governor bot linked will give you links to the latest unofficial versions

[glass apex]

yea but if i want to use a mod that is outdated i cant do it

cause i got some errors

[lapis void]

what outdated mod do you want to use?

like i said, getting unofficial pytk and tmxl will fix most errors

[glass apex]

don't really know to say a name rn but my question - if the cut scene is bugged updating mods is the way to fix it?

[dire fractal]

Is there a way to teleport to locations? I'm at day 14 of spring. Cant get there without willys boat

[lament prairie]

there's debug commands

[lapis void]

yes. update your game, SMAPI and all mods, and come back with a new log if you're having trouble getting any of your mods to work

[late nebula]

You can warp in the smapi console. Just need a location to go to which... i have no idea

[dire fractal]

Yea no clue on that. Ill look into it

[glass apex]

if i wrap on the middle of the cut scene using console is it fine?

i mean i dont need to see the scene

[late nebula]

Okie, I was just curious if warping there would cause more errors or anything to help us see what's going on.

[harsh drum]

Is there any mods that adds new places npc's and stuff like that exept SVE Ridgeside scarp and lunna?

[lament prairie]

should be fine, might cause weird stuff but once you escape it should be ok. you can also install "noclip" mod if your inability to walk through things is bugged

[lament prairie]

There are plenty of smaller NPC mods that add a small new location for the NPC to live

[harsh drum]

Cool like what?

[dire fractal]

I've answered i thought but yea, Stardew Valley Aquarium, Mermaid Island, Walk to the Desert Redux

Boarding House

[lament prairie]

Jasper

[harsh drum]

Yeah im trying to get as many as i can

[glass apex]

may i ask you any command to wrap? im kinda new thanks

[lament prairie]

Jessie and Juliet

[glass apex]

i dont mind the place just to leave the scene

[dire fractal]

Boarding house is almost like East Scarp in that you can add compatible npcs from other npc mods to it

[lament prairie]

This is the list of all console commands: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Console_commands

you can try eventover but it might restart the event

You can warp (change maps) with warp <S:locationName> [I:X] [I:Y]

such as debug warp forest 33 99

[glass apex]

yes i found it

thank you very much

i ll try and see if it is working

yes many times

[late nebula]

Okie

[dire fractal]

The only other option would be run as admin for now. See if that helps. Though it doesn't solve the issue as to why you can't do it normally

[late nebula]

I'm not up to date with all the install issues so I can't be of much help. Last one I heard of was with Game Pass.

[dire fractal]

Is your stardew Valley up to date? 1.5.5?

[golden monolith]

Yes I just updated it which is why im now having issues.

[dire fractal]

What disk are you running it on? D: or C:

[golden monolith]

[polar pagoda]

why would you tell me you dont know when im asking for what it means?

smh my head

[harsh drum]

Damn you got me and it took me a while to realise xD

Does lunnar work with SVE?

[lament prairie]

Does the mod description say?

This is like the #1 most asked question

[valid girder]

@tired brook I don't know if you might be interested into knowing this, but remember my problem with the stutter/frame drops? I've been playing the game the whole day again today, now suddenly after 7 hours the stutter/frame drops is gone. I have no clue why it's suddenly gone and if it will remain gone, but I'm kind of scared to reboot my game to try it incase it does come back haha

[lament prairie]

[gaunt gust]

oh, I didn't know %localappdata% was a thing! Thank you!

[lament prairie]

wait does anything actually gp wrong? I think I used to/maybe still get those errors on the save I have Swim on

But they didn't seem to affect anything as far as i could tell

[dire fractal]

No it didn't do anything. Its with TMXL Map Toolkit btw. I was able to go to the island (ginger Island) and even dive and sim. So I don't know

[lament prairie]

Just ignore them then

Unless aedenthorn says otherwise

can anyone tell me why does the content patcher mod spend 5-6 minutes doing nothing here?

Log file: https://smapi.io/log/5f25bc26f3404ce6aaa75b80b6414d7c
My game takes 13 minutes to load in total and it's very annoying

[dire fractal]

It just loads everything. Mine takes awhile loading because I have 600 plus mods. If you have a lot of CP mods, I'm guessing its going to take a while to load

[mortal sparrow]

I have around 120 mods

It loads really slow on the content patcher sections

[dire fractal]

Well that means you either got a lot of CP mods, you got big CP mods, and you have big mods that add a ton of things like SVE. At least I think that's how that works

[gaunt gust]

or consider getting a faster HD

[mortal sparrow]

faster HD?

[gaunt gust]

although to me it looks almost like the log is paused, so go to the console and hit enter a few times

[mortal sparrow]

hmm

let me try that

[errant bridge]

I have around 120 and mine takes 9 mins, it's normal no??

[mortal sparrow]

Spamming enter doesn't do it and also I have a SSD and I even tried using ramdisk to see if it was really my hard drive issues, turns out it's not.

[dire fractal]

Its going to take awhile. Its normal

[mortal sparrow]

I don't think so

It just freezes on the console like atravita said

[errant bridge]

Well yeah

[dire fractal]

Yea it does it to me too, then starts when its done loading

[errant bridge]

Just launch it, leave it alone for 10 mins and then play

If you have pytk it takes a LOT longer I found

[reef stag]

That's normal, yes, I usually wait 5-10 minutes for my game to launch.

[gaunt gust]

it'll take a lot longer to load if you have a lot of pytk

[mortal sparrow]

yeah I do have pytk

most of my mods require pytk sadly

[gaunt gust]

another thing that helps: updating to the latest of each mod

[mortal sparrow]

yea I did that

[gaunt gust]

if smapi doesn't have to do any rewriting that's good

[lapis void]

it looks like it may actually be hanging on JA and not CP, maybe adding RSV items?
