I haven't actually played the game really since RSV 2.0.0 came out
so I don't recognize most of the names
now forgive me, I have a rug function to stare at some more
I haven't played the game since 1.5 was released 
...what is a rug function?
I'm trying to figure out the best way to make it so you can place a rug under furniture, nothing more.
I feel like you have an advantage in this regard so you are kinda biased 
the installer isn't a mod, you can delete that. you also somehow copied your contents directory into your mods directory, you can delete that too
other than that, nothing's wrong
Ah! Good luck wrangling the rugs and furniture, then!
I wonder if you tried to use an xnb mod.
!reset might help
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 :)

just to confirm, you have stardew valley 1.5.6 and SMAPI 3.13.2?
I'm very biased 
Yes i do
RSV adds Jesus too? 😮 Poor Yoba
Which is why I don't recommend people to play Ridgeside because I'm not an independent party. I can't give a fair review because I love the mod unconditionally.
don't worry, I can recommend the mod for you
One day, I'll try out Ridgeside... But I just can't play without SVE anymore and my PC is just going to go bye bye if I try to run those two at the same time, I'm sure...
i have ridgeside, sve and east scarp working at the same time, it takes like 3 to 5 minutes for smapi to load, but runs well
Yeah the loading is the worst of it.

817 mods here and the loading is so long
smapi pls explain 😭
O..O Okay... and here I thought I was bad with my... 60 mods...
Probably a looping error
My game starts to struggle when I play for 4-5 in-game days in a row with the mods I'm currently using.. So in a way, they are helping me to avoid spending too much time playing the game 😛
I guess that's a way of looking at it!
oh sorry
install Warp Snitch
the player believes the error is stemming from the lavril mod, but the smapi isn't indicating that well
Huh... last time I played, the game also got kind of laggy when entering/exiting doors/new areas. But now it's smooth. Maybe running around on a small farm rather than Immersive Farm 2 is helping.
somethings gone wrong in NPC pathfinding
Warp Snitch will provide more detail
i tried a bunch of things , but only getting lavril to 1 heart did that loop error
hii everyone, im beggin for help 🙂 So this is happening with my smapi, and the mods which i donwloaded basically don´t work if anyone knows what could i do or what is happening ://
Can you show a screenshot of your mods folder?
That's not your mods folder, that's a random folder named Mods and your computer isn't showing its file path for some reason
Your mods folder is at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods
assuming you're using the steam version
they are, it's in the log snippet they posted
SMAPI tells you where the mods folder is and the first screenshot includes that
I seeeee
for some reason, your mods aren't in your actual Mods folder that SMAPI is looking in, they're in some other folder also named Mods
(like the time i accidentally installed Celeste mods to my Stardew Valley mods folder)
so to be honest im quite dumb with it, and i've followed a tutorial and i did what was there
oh no was it one of those youtube tutorials
and that was the only place where shows the mods
yep
if you click into the top bar of your file explorer, it'll let you type
!gettingstarted the youtube tutorials are frequently outdated or just flat-out wrong
If you would like a guide to setting up mods for Stardew Valley, check out the getting started guide! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide
SMAPI is looking in a specific location on your computer and you put the mods somewhere that wasn't there
this?
Yep! That's your Mods folder
yes i probably did all wrong
looks like all you did wrong was put your mods in the wrong location
YEY i´m fellin like a genius
so i supost to put them here??
yep, they need to go in there
(also, you don't need to put the SMAPI installer in there)
(it is the installer for the modloader, it is not a mod in and of itself)
Hi, I'm trying to use custon furniture mod on mobile, is it possible?
Get ones from before Dec 20th, 2020 I believe it should be possible but I’m not sure
Okay, thanks! ^^
I have this mod but my house is still the same like orange one
did I miss out something
You might have a different mod overriding it
It does seem to have loaded, but if a different mod edits the farmhouse and loads later it will be the thing that displays
hmm is there a solution
You would either have to check all of your other CP mods or do a patch summary in the log to see what’s editing the farmhouse
!patchsummary
Can you do these steps to provide more info?
- Load your save and view the content that should be patched.
- Type
patch summarydirectly into the SMAPI window and press enter. - Upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page).
- Post the log link here.
When you post the log, you can control-F for Farmhouse in the thing the log spits out after the patch summary
That will tell you which mods could be editing the farmhouse
alright I'll try thanks xd
Also there are little checkbox things that say if the mods did in fact edit the farmhouse
But also we can help you read your log when you post it here
SMAPI window?
black window with text
1 or 2
when you run the game, a black window with text should show up
ohh oaky
you need to load into the save
and then upload the log, following the instructions at that link
sorry, but you still need to load into a save first, before running the command and sending the log
what do u mean by save? a save file?
yes
like this?
I'm not quite sure why you made a shortcut to the error log?
you can upload it by clicking on the small blue text...
oh u mean the 'choose a file?
yup!
looks like elle's buildings and flowery valley are both editing the farmhouse, and elle's is configured to look very similar to vanilla
oh so I need to remove either elle or flower valley?
You can configure Elle’s
how XD
Read the mod description
Find the config option related to the farmhouse
There’s probably a False or None or Off option
I don’t recall off the top of my head which it is
the site where I download the mod?
Yep!
My cheese does not want to go into my casks, neither directly, through automate, nor through oneclickshedrefiller (which also works on cellars
Do you have any other cask mods?
Nope
Hi, I was wondering if anyone could tell me why some mods are downloading as .rar for me instead of a zippered file? Specifically Marnie Deserves Better for example
Files with the extension .zip, .rar, or .7z are archive files, which you can extract to get the actual files inside. For a .zip file, just right-click (or long-press on Android) it and choose the option like extract or uncompress. For .rar and .7z, you need to install third-party software first, like 7-zip https://7-zip.org on Windows, Keka https://keka.io on macOS, PeaZip https://peazip.github.io on Linux, or ZArchiver https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver on Android.
If you’re on Mac I like the unarchiver
Well you can either play “guess that mod” by yourself or upload a log here and we can guess too
I have a little scriptlet in my zshrc that uses tar to unpack things
thank you! I just got a new computer and this explains why the same mods worked before (like a year ago). Since I could unzip some mods I just thought my new computer already had the necessary software -facepalm-
I want to fix this... it not work anything.
I can't recall the conversation from earlier. Did you run SDV once without smapi?
Just to check: are your casks in the cellar?
Yes
Yes
I run sdv 1 times before move install.dat file on folder
Yes i do it again last time before telling in discord.
reinstall sdv and SMAPI
and restart computer.
In your game directory, you will find a file called Stardew Valley.deps.json
copy that, name the copy StardewModdingAPI.deps.json
Yes i do it.
and luanching game again?
that i use luanch options.
is nexus virus free?
It has a virus scanner and scans all files. So yes.
Can anyone come in and fix it for me through Anydex?
then why did mcAfee appeae out of nowhere and says i might have a threat?
I just look at one of the photos for a mod, and poof
It does that sometimes since Pathos hasn't gotten around to adding a certificate or whatever it's called.
I feel hopeless 😩
if you mean smapi
life cycle mod
Sometimes antiviruses object to harmony sometimes
i was looking at the pictures of it
okay not that then
can you paste the full line?
"D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%
I can try. I would need to take a moment to familiarize myself with that program though. Someone else might be more qualified though to be honest. I would probably try stuff you've already done.
well that looks right 
it's not that, it's a manual install missing the last step
oh
And, honestly, I don't have enough spare brainpower today to come up with comprehensible explanations to anything.
so...
and I've never manual installed so 🤷♂️
So i use a virus scanner, and it said I never have a virus
<#archived-modded-support message> the missing step
Honestly what you described sounds to me like you were already infected with malware or something.
But I wouldn't know.
lets say i was double checking
Nexus runs virus scans on all the files people upload
I cant trust websites, so i downloaded a trustable virus scanner
meaning that mcAfee "Scanner" was a scam
That’s an interesting statement
Yeah idk anything about virus scanners
I mean, McAfee himself right now is pushing scamcoins, so...
I don’t use a virus scanner at all but I’m also on Mac
(although the antivirus is still legit and is not involved with him anymore)
But in all honesty, if nexus does have a virus scanner, idek why i had a mcafee ad popped up
and all scanners get false positives to vary rates, especially with more obscure stuff, like modding files
That sounds like malware or spyware
You also have to check when downloading a popular virus scanner that you’re actually download the popular virus scanner and not a similar looking thing
they can be overcautious to things they don't know about
My grandfather downloaded a thing and said “but it said Mac in the name” and I had to remove it for him
they also alert on harmony sometimes (sensible!)
So basically, its ok if you want to double check
The vast majority of Stardew Mods are open source
if you want to, you can look into the source code
But if an antivirus ad appears on a website that’s also different from a program you downloaded? I’m not totally sure what you’re describing
Yeah
(I actually do recommend it.)
But the mod i got alerts on was Life Cycle
I would look into that McAfee addon or whatever it is that you're using though.
yeah, that one isn't gonna be a virus, that's just json files
yeah....that addon seems sus
See what the reviews and such are and if you really need it.
I didnt even go to Mcafee, let alone had a subscription
Everything you're saying about whatever you're using sounds sus
Okay…was it from the website/browser or from your computer?
lol
Im telling the truth, and its from a browser
Sometimes advertisements pretend to be something else on a page
a web of McAfee
Do you have anyone in your life that you trust
The double check was from a legit Virsu scanner, saying i dont have any threats
who is good with computers?
Did you accidentally download a browser extension from McAfee?
no
I believe you. That program just sounds suspicious.
^what atravita said
Its called Trend Micro
It’s hard for us to say anything without seeing your computer
The double check i mean
Oh that
no worries. you guys were trying to help
one doubt, convenient chests works on stardew mobile?
It's about as bad as McAfee to be honest
But at least it was a legit virus scanner. not some random website
was it uploaded before Dec 2020?
Oh geez it's almost 10:30 z_z
same
yep
sleep believes in you
try it, I guess?
before i go, what mods do you guys recommend?
if you click on the files tab on nexus, the mod maker put what version it works for
After all, this is what this channel is about
https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/4b414397d5cb3a2082fe521e0df42e7ef2ea6629eacb893a4118283c22d1afc2
VirusTotal
For Life Cycle
That link looks sus.
lol
Then its that damned scam then
better sort, automatic gates, better artisan goods icons, and convenient chests
also, thank you modding community
some of those you may need an unofficial version, always check on the smapi website
smapi has a page that lists all the mods and what is and isn't broken, and if it's broken what the alternative is
I...should probably do a rec list at some point
that's what I mean
!compat
See https://smapi.io/mods for a list of mods updated for the latest versions of SMAPI and Stardew Valley. :)
that's the link to the list 😛
I was being too coy I guess 😛
I should update my rec list
I just listed the ones I think improves on vanilla without cheating too much (convenient chest is a little bit cheaty, but you can turn off the more cheaty stuff too)
I don’t add things until I’ve played with them, but it takes time to play with mods
Also I keep getting distracted by “making mods” and such silly things
I use the most recent one, it shows a patch about mobile, but in the game there is no change'-'
It's bee a while since I've actually, like, played the game
and not run around in circles wondering why I'm getting a null reference error...
I was playing a lot more a month ago and then I put it down for a bit. I go through cycles of more modding vs more playing.
if that one isn't working, there might not be a version that works for mobile, but I can't be sure since I don't have mobile to try myself
Same. I've need to finish my various projects so I'm not so distracted. 😆
Every time I play, I'm like... Wow, I need to fix that.
So, I'm really sorry to bother you all at this late but would anyone be willing to help me troubleshoot my sv? I've modded it and it was working just fine until sometime maybe a week before Christmas and now it will let me load my save and play for about 30 or so seconds before freezing my entire computer. I'm thinking it had something to do with the 1.5.6 update maybe?
I just have the itch to play Stardew for several hours and I can't do that at the moment because of the issue. If anyone would be willing to help that would be greatly appreciated!
Guys i just realized. The "McAfee" was a spoof
I took a look at the browser url, and it was a different url than the McAfee one.
I looked it up, and it is known for scamming lots of people
!log
@proud hare Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
I hope you haven't lost any data or anything :(
is there any way to do multiplayer with more than 4 people?
I just saw a video recently with 10 players going into skull cavern together, so I think it's possible with a mod but I'm not sure which one.
I'm not seeing anything specific that sticks out.
What are you doing when it freezes?
aaa okie tysm! <3
So... it actually doesn't matter what I do. It's more of just a time frame thing. I have been in the middle of:
Watering crops
Sitting in the bed
Sitting in a pause menu
Looking at the tv
Standing in my house
ect
every time I'm forced to literally hard reset my computer because I don't think it registers it as a crash or something and I can't windows button out
can't alt+tab out?
Or is getting bogged down by something
can't do anything out
Um, I do have a relatively older laptop
I think your computer is either too slow or doesn't have enough memory
but like i said, it was working perfectly fine
what are your specs
How much RAM does it have?
You all
Someone once said they were running the game on 2GB of ram
😆
you can't even run windows 10 on 2GB 😳
Again, kind of old laptop. But, the only thing that isn't very good is the graphics card
well I mean it depends on how many and which mods you are running and what else your pc is doing in the background
might have been a tablet, the 2GB of RAM
the only other thing i can think of is I think it updated to windows 11
Oh yeah that will do it
SDV doesn't work with W11?
No just as bad on resources as 10
I've noticed it likes to suck up cpu
I have been sort of wondering if Windows 11 is behind some of the stranger performance issues reports
before you run smapi, open task manager and switch to the performance tab, then run smapi and see if any of the meters get pegged
I didn't get to update to Win 11 and I'm somewhat sad
although updating would mean I would have to fix grub, which...argh
Don't be
meh, I'll switch when I have to, feel no rush
well, windows 11 is ugly anyways 😛
cpu always gets pegged no matter what i do lol- but ive never had any issues before with other games... well save for the obvious ones like civ 6
Things like users saying "game now takes 10x longer to launch, I didn't change anything" sounds to me like it could be triggered if windows 11 updated, but hard to tell.
or maybe linux'll be good enough for primary gaming before W10 gets obsolete, but probably not
CAD software, mate
I am still irate that I can't make my taskbar icons small without a registry edit that messes up my clock... fistshakes at 11
I just miss aero glass tbh
what
every day I am tempted to just format my drive and install win 7
11 is so... Just underdeveloped
I actually kind of like 10, honestly
is there a way to go back to 10 without... screwing up my laptop lol?
I don't understand why it has to be at the bottom, I haven't had a taskbar at the bottom since I got my own login on a computer
so since like the mid 2000s lol
I'm not a fan of the left sidebar in unity
that's where I keep mine lol
I like mine at the bottom just because I've always had it there lol. It looks weird for it to be anywhere else for me
You could reimage the pc. Not sure if 11 has a built in "Take me back to 10" button.
You would need to create media and backup everything
It would wipe your pc
hmmm how do i check to make sure im on w11 cause now im worried im not
First time posting here so hello everyone and I appreciate any potential help! Basically I have a bug where I cannot seem to mine many of the bone nodes on ginger island quarry. Some of which I just walk right through. https://smapi.io/log/0392a55c91bc48bf9b56dd8e0d6a3cdc
In the search bar, type "about my pc"
That screen should say
(Maybe... i always use dxdiag but it's old like me)
you're on Win 10
Yay 10
yay 10, but also crap thats not the issue then
Well it could be
could be the CPU?
10 is still resource intensive
because i do remember it like making me do something with one drive when i booted my computer up and then the freezing started happening
onedrive might be culprite
thats why i thought it updated
Onedrive might be operating in the background and stealing memory
everytime i've forced it to stop it uh... likes to start again
winaero tweaker migth be able to get it to stop
oh onedrive
on Mac it causes horrible lagginess as Mac tries to map all the folders and OneDrive screws them up
also fun fact windows 10 still has aero lite!
That's a pretty weird bug, and I looked through your mods carefully and can't think of what might cause that. If this log doesn't have you trying to walk through one, can you try walking through one and then uploading a log? If that's not the case, you might have to carefully uninstall mods until it stops.
Also, are you playing multiplayer or singleplayers?
yep maythorn i see that emoji - you can download winaero tweaker to turn it on without needing to resort to Shenanigans
ive been considering turning it on but i dont know if it can do the purple/dark colouring i use
Yeah I walked through them a few on that one , saved a day, and then closed my file so it should have that one. Its multiplayer
I have 11 though.
i dont know if windows 11 has it
Trying to take an accurate screenshot of task manager has proven to be difficult. Everything keeps changing constantly with the main culprits (which are the ones that I close when I run SV) are discord, spotify, and chrome (and task manager but thats because its intensive on its own)
If it's multiplayer you may want to double-check that you have the same mods as the host if you're the farmhand (exact same versions, exact same set). You can use the log website to help compare.
I like to open two windows side by side and then scan my eyes side to side rapidly
The cpu does tend to spike really bad for some reason when i'm not even doing anything
Discord is a bit of a resource hog
But I assume you don't usually have it open when playing?
make sure discord is actually closing and nto just minimized to the task bar
Have you managed to kill stop onedrive?
I mean I right click it and "close window"
oh that doesn't exit discord
you need to go to the icon in the tray, right-click that and choose quit discord
(you can also disable the minimize-to-taskbar thing in discords settings under windows settings)
close window, right?
this is right clicking the icon in the taskbar
I also sometimes force quit it from task manager if it's being stubborn
also you might want to disable Cortana
How would one do that
personally i used winaero tweaker
also, if the save corrupted, it would do something else right?
nope, that just closes the window, discord is still running, you want this one, which is in the tray
yell about xml errors
ah okay
if the save is corrupted, it will yell about xml errors
got it
thank goodness my save isn't corrupted then
if i got my phone out i could technically stream it live to you guys if you want
so you can see exactly what happens
Looks like "compatibility files" is meant to...override other mods maybe?
what
It looks like an asset collection designed to overwrite other mods, which it couldn't do, because it wasn't unzipped properly
well the last one seems like an easy fix. It just needs an update
Also yeah you need to update IF2R - wait that's just IF2. i think we're up to immersive farm 4?
oh
What the heck did you install???
um
I need to know what did this to your poor files
So I can investigate and warn people away
Hello my friend has encountered this issue. He can't get past this window because it crashes inmediately.
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/7399?tab=files what all files do i need for this one
yeah, the stuff under Optional Files are all asset overwrites, not separate mods - and also all of them are old enough to be dubious; IF2 itself it no longer compatible and i have no idea what those 'compatibilty files' do
Omg it has xnb files
oh NO
!reset to clear any junk from IF2
@jovial torrent 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 :)
whats an xnb file
files stardew valley itself uses
!xnb
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).
old mods just replaced them wholesale
The format the game's files are packed in. Older mods use xnb files and want you to overwrite the game's content itself
this has quite a lot of flaws
ah i see thats why sve needed me to download so much to work
the most primitive way to mod games, it's where most games start until smart people step in and make stuff like smapi
or they have built in mod support, one of the two
(some mods that add large new areas pack their maps in XNB formats, as with very large maps this makes them load faster, but most don't bother)
!log Can your friend get a log or no? Not sure if one is being generated. 
@flat prawn Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
Mayhaps I shouldn't get into modding at some point. It seems like if I don't know what I'm doing I could do more harm than good :'>

Just don't put anything in your Content folder and you won't do any harm
honestly, CP makes it a lot easier these days
you're not likely to mess up with that
And if you do put stuff in the Content folder steam has a handy button to fix it
fair enough. Still gonna wait til I have some more years of my computer science major before i do any major coding projects
I don't wanna be a yandev
up to you, but if you do want to start there's a bunch of documentation to help support modders in SDV

just great

Stardew Valley Expanded isn't updated?
It is. Make sure you update all of its dependencies (especially Custom Music + PyTK + TMXL) per the previous section. You might also need to delete the Custom Music it bundles, and install the unofficial version instead.
how do i do that
search the compat list for pytk and tmxl
it's got a search bar
but also pyTK and TMXL are here: https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/unofficial-mod-updates.2096/page-78#post-53000
Heyo, can someone please update [BFAV] cel's sheep? That would be so great, I need a little gold sheep along with my normal white ones. Thanks!
Note: I'm using the latest unofficial update for BFAV
.q 5793
[#5793] "A list of common mod update questions:
- PyTK and TMXLoader still work in 1.5.6, 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.)
- 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.
- NPC Adventures was broken, but is now fixed for 1.5.5+! Get the latest from Nexus.
- 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.
- Stardew Valley Expanded still works in 1.5.6. 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)
and also custom music
(we're trying to retire this quote in favor of teaching people how the compat page works!)
compatibility page is also just good for looking for new mods, faster than nexus, shows other sites, plus the compatibility stuff
downside is it does only search names rather than descriptions
I do enjoy a good browse down the list
It's a little biased towards mods that are earlier alphabetically xD
now that i finnaly have the mod installed how do i play the new farm layout
Make sure to pick the map type that the farm layout replaces, or if it adds a new farm layout, pick that one when you make a new save.
for sve, pick the standard farm
its not working
The SVE farms are separate downloads on SVE's page as it's a case of "pick one"
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
can mods add new options for starting farms, or do they always replace a farm?
and when they replace farm, does that affect current saves, or only new saves?
right now they only replace farms, so any save loaded with that farm type will have that farm
The ability to add new options for starting farms very recently
as of 1.5.5, mods can add new farms
it's very new and not all the bugs are ironed out yet
i think PathosChild's small beach farm uses that feature? and nobody else has gotten around to it yet
(among one: the initial TV has issues)
personally I don't see it as too useful
anything you guys suggest doing to try and fix my problem?
use windows tools to forcibly ban anything from running in the background? (it seemed from conversation like this might be possible, I can't tell for sure bc I don't use windows)
!log
@jovial torrent Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
We cannot help you further without a log
it means you can't run two saves that use the same base map, like one vanilla standard and a mod that replaces standard, without messing with your mod folder when you want to switch saves
Nothing in the guide worked. How to open SMAPI through a command line?
- Immersive Farm 4 because you have multiple copies of this mod installed. To fix this, delete these folders and reinstall the mod: Mods\Immersive Farm 4-7399-1-0-0-1609219357\IF4 [DO NOT DISTRIBUTE][CP] Immersive Farm 4, Mods\Immersive Farm 4-7399-2-4-0-1640740623\IF4[CP] Immersive Farm 4.
i sent you my log you must of missed it but thats fine
You need to delete Immersive Farm 4 and redownload the most recent version
also sorry for missing the log earlier
the third part of the troubleshooting guide tells you how to run SMAPI through the command line
thats fine man im not the only one here
go to your stardew valley folder, shift+rightclick in it, and click Open Powershell Window HEre
you've got multiple copies of IF4 and need to remove them and install the latest version - to help prevent this, take the contents of the zips you download out and put them in your mods folder
Thank you, I couldn't find it in the guide, hence why I asked. Will continue updating tomorrow.
here's a screenshot of part of my mods folder showing some cleanly exracted mods
ok
(this way, if you download two versions of a mod, it'll probably give you a "do you wnat to replace files?" when you go to put the second one in, instead of just letting you install the same mod lots of times in different folders and end up with it clashing with itself)
i need to update content patcher, space core, and json assets. can i just download and replace the existing files? or will that fk something up for sdv expanded
download and replace
cool thank you!!
no problem!
im so excited to play around with this layout
it looks like there is loads to do 🙂
what was a problem was having to retrieve a parrot off my curtains heh
(my mother has a parrot. the parrot is sometimes a menace)
woah whats that map from??
its called immersive farm 4
I am so sad there's no SDV parrot emoji to react with
rip lol
is there a mod to show the loved gifts for expanded npcs aswell as vanilla ones? i remember there was one for vanilla but not too sure about expanded
if you were clicking on it it's possible you accidentally put it into select mode
not that
lookup anything
this
if it says Select Mode or Select like this - press Enter, rigthclick, or esc to get out of select mode
If this happens when either a) it's loading mods or b) loading saves, best to leave it be if there's no red text in the log, possibly for up to 10 minutes. This looks like it's happening not at those times though.
what happened?
Kibbee's game froze and I'm checking to see if it's the thing that's easiest to fix
namely smapi's Select Mode, which is a thing that consoles have that stops whatevers' happening in them (in this case, running Stardew Valley with SMAPI) so you can copy or read stuff from the console without it moving on you as stuff happens
thanks. i feel its a bit too much tho. do you know if gift taste helper works with expanded?
!log
@sick grotto Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
hum
looks to me like a malformed event script, but there's actually quite a bit wrong on that mod
try redownloading it, maybe
!saves revert to a previous day
@strange wave Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.
the event format is very touchy and very easy to screw up in a way that causes a crash
how much specs for a good experience with expanded
in this case, I expect either an extra or missign value on the second field of one of them
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10206 is the siv's marriage mod redux
Oh my god. Thank you, I've been looking for this mod for months.
I'm going to cry from gratitude. Thank you so so much. I didn't know it was finally reuploaded
it says its not SMAPI mod, is there a solution?
hi, can someone take a look at my log, thank you!
https://smapi.io/log/49ec7d11b2ad43138166c041f3ae6ca9
use JA ppja instead of DGA
should i undo last save?
thank you
yes
it means i'll restart the past day right?
yes
You may have uninstalled a mod but still had mod items
Or a mod may be broken
Or you uh, spawned yourself an error item somehow with cheats? Idk if that's even possible
idk
I think its possible if there are still error items (like tea in previous builds of stardew) and you use their item id in your name
Probably you should trash the error items and not do whatever gave you them again
Unless you like having error items for whatever reason
Then you do you
I just got the items it 2 of so far that is a error
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
@lament prairie i wonder if a mod that hasn't update on the nexus page
That seems less likely
i'm wondering it if flouris to famer mod
if you have the DGA version, probably
whats that
Farmer to Florist's most recent version was badly machine converted to a different framework
i don't have that verison
(Was JA, is now DGA but broken)
i have missing machines
is that a mod
its a mod
!log has instructions
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
and Farmer to Florist doesnt have anything to do iwth a portrait mod
how can check if that my issue @naive drum
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
i dont understand
y do i need it ?
There are two conversations going on in here at once. The stuff about Farmer to Florist was a reply to something Isis said about if their problem was Farmer to Florist. it had nothing to do with you
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
their log
thanks!
it was a portraiture issue right?
yes'
can you send a screenshot of your portraits folder
alr
https://smapi.io/log/d6a54e4a880f450ea26c45e34ec4cb3c here is my log i don't have any red text, just trying figure out the error items and missing machines
you're supposed to put the portraits into a subfolder
Looks like you have no Content Patcher portaits installed at all; if you have Portraiture portraits installed into your portraiture Portraits folder, you need to press P to cycle them and note that not all characters necessarily have portraits
so seems like it was indeed either discord hogging up cpu, or me changing it to windowed did something. I did, however, notice that Steam has so kindly decided it wants to send not one, not two, but three entire webclient helpers to hog it up with like 25% each
Im actually running it okay even with discord open at the moment
i did
esrdgthfh steam Why
whats a sub folder
a folder in a folder
a folder within a folder
Windowed vs not really ought not to fix or break things, but sadly it does seem to do weird stuff
So it could be that
so they shouldnt be loose in the Portraits folder, but instead in a folder within the Portraits folder
wait wait wiat
so portraits are supposed to be in Portraits\Example Mod\, not in Portraits\
Is there a way to uh, minimize the amount of resources steam is taking up, because sv doesnt even take up more than 20% most of the time
oh thats a different mod
right click in the folder, mouse over New, click Folder
that whole file is different
you need to make a new folder then
its the baechu portrait mod
it could have also had something to do with me accidentally opening a different file and then quitting to title after a while and then reopening the one that was freezing
how do i make a new folder
maybe try putting steam in offline mod?
right click in the folder, mouse over New, click Folder
that also works
theres also a dedicated button in the top menu bar
Soo ill name it into baechu portrait alr
ok lets test it out
its not working its still on the vanilla portrait
Okay I made steam take an offline mode nap lets see if that fixed anything
Maybe they just dont have a Linus portrait?
but in this MOd it doesnt
i am using the anime portrait cmopletey a different mod
it looks like that's the mod with the issue then. Is there a baechu linus?
its ntot the beachu portrait
nope they dont
oh yea
they do
nvm
Ithought ur talkign abt the anime portrait
the beachu they dont have one
but the anime portrait they do have a linus one, that's why i am using Ohodavi mod
@naive drum Oh my god, my cpu has never had this low of a percent while playing any kind of game thank you so much. Steam why you do us like this?
hmm it might be because you have two different texture mods??? im not sure I dont really have much experience in this
i have 2 portrait mods currently trying to use
but the portraiture/portrait make it possible
by clicking p
but the beachu mod are the only one working
hmmm are you getting any kind of error message from smapi such as it needing to be updated?
which portraits are not working?
the anime portrait
they said the beachu mod is working but the other one isnt
ohodavi
your description seems entirely consistent with having 2 portrait mods, one that has a linus portrait and one that doesn't?
i don't know what would cause the error item , plus the 4 missing machine's 
yea ig
if the machines were modded, it could be JSON shuffle
looking at your log i dont know either
send a screenshot of ohodavi's portraits folder in portraiture
oh
that what trying figure out i can post my log https://smapi.io/log/d6a54e4a880f450ea26c45e34ec4cb3c
That looks like it might be a Content Patcher mod using PyTK upscale
I use that mod with CP usually, but actually rn I'm loading in with that mod in portraiture the same way you have it and I'll check
i dont understand how mod would get shuffle, i always delete the old folders and get the new ones
i dont know what that means
shuffle is caused by changing how many JA items you have installed at all - how you update the mods is basically irrelevant
ohodavi portraits are standard resolution
ooh so ohodavi portraits would go in the Mods folder, not in portraiture's Portraits folder?
is there way i can fix that from happening
yeah
oh
A lot of people in the mod comments talk about using portraiture though, I'm assuming it's because a CP and a xnb version are both up
Does anyone know of any clothes that can make my farmer look like a disgruntled wife from the 18th century
I'm browsing nexus as we speak but figured I'd ask
that is very specific lol
It is
I can probably help you with the search though! two people is always better than one
But basically browns and buns
Kinda like in my pfp
I had a sleeve mod I liked but its broken and the other I have isn't as nice I think so thats probably off the table
Long sleeves are kinda in the ballpark too
Basically, liked lambeeron's sleeves but its incompatible with current versions of content patcher and its sad
yup
any of these hairstyles strike your fancy?
i have a long game 😄 22 year 28 day fall
Braids 
I do fancy braids
and then the clothes
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9166
Heres the mod btw if you wanna look at it yourself
Of course! Honestly if I didn't already start this save I might have downloaded it myself!
They're very similar to a bishop sleeve too very nice
glad I could help :>
hey guys so i moved the anime portrait on the mods
and its not working
the game are using the vanila portrait
i want the rest of the npcs to be in the anime portrait while seb look like a korean
do you have content patcher installed?
i have installed
i alr have that
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
your ohodavi portraits aren't in your mods folder
Here's what I think it would be the easiest thing to do:
Use the anime portraits mod as a content patcher mod
Replace the single PNG for Sebastian with the PNG from the other mod
Make sure it's named the same thing
Now remember that you did this and never change that frankenstein'ed mod
Yes. Also, don't use Portraiture or any other portrait mods if you do what I said
y?
@naive drum i can't find that mod
which mod?
they'll conflict with each other
the flouris to famer
i give up LMAO
thank you
im having a headache on how to do this , seb alr look hot
@robust bison what was the old file called if you remember
not sure what you mean
so i can remove ppja flouris to famer
Hey, just curious, does anyone else's pc take more than an hour to download DSV?
no
that's your internet
Oh
sorry
I mean unzi
*unzip
The download was actually quick
it's just that the extraction is taking forever
I have PPJa Artisan Valley and Even more recipes and fruits and veggies and mizus flower more recipes and more trees these are my ppja folders i have
so i'm not sure which one i need to delete
it might be your computer's connection to your drive
does anything else take a long time to extract?
I know, on my laptop at least, that it takes a lot longer to extract if it's a ton of really small files instead of a fewer large ones
I'm not sure. Ridgeside took me like 10 min tops I think?
yeah, it shouldn't take that long
I've only had the laptop since yesterday afternoon XD
this image gives me so much serotonin. I would put shane into pink purgatory if it wouldn't ruin my overall vintage aesthetic
maybe your drive just has a slow connection
god I hope not. I payed so much for a good gaming laptop XD
A quick google says it might be defender that's the issue shrug
oh yeah, if you have an antivirus scanning each files as it's extracting it could take longer
It probably set up the antivirus automatically sigh
usually when I extract something it's nearly instantaneous
because heaven forbid opt in is a thing anymore
i'm going try updating the flouris to famer, but not sure which old folder i need to delete
You have JA Farmer to Florist; this is the correct version
do not get the newest version it is broken
i don't know if i have the new one
You dont
You have the JA verson. The broken one uses DGA and shows up under DGA in the top section of the log.
do i need DGA mod than
do not get the newest Farmer to Florist, it is broken
Also you already have DGA installed.
You can uninstall DGA if you want, since you don't currently have any mods that use it
i got it when someone told me i need it
(although for all I know you're planning to install some DGA furniture)
err, what usually causes this again?
i have error items and missing machines
Is that vanilla items going invisible?
so it not just me than
Lux's Food Mod does that sometimes
is it usually fixed by relaunching?
my stardew valley automailly updateds
No, you have to add false dependencies to Lux's Food Mod for every other mod that edits springobjects.png

Yeah, it's PyTK's fault
I wonder if it's linked to the mods I added
But it's unlikely to be fixed anytime soon because....PyTK
It's weakly linked, has to do with load order
If you added something alphabetically after Lux's Food Mod then that would be it, but load order is also not always alphabetical if there are dependencies around
i don't have that mod
do you think moving lux's to the bottom of the list would help?
I was talking to Arcane, not you Isis
It would maybe help but maybe not
The most reliable way is to add the false dependencies
Since that's how SMAPI fixes load order
It does something along the lines of "once rescaling happens, no other edits will work"
And Lux's food mod is 24px by 24px
There's a surprising amount of stuff on springobjects.png—wdym by messed up tilesheets?
is this the patchy recolor bits?
They probably reorder two of your recolors that were conflicting, but in the opposite order
The invisible stuff on the ground is more springobjects things probably
so i started up my game and here is the error items
Since they added basically all the popular recolors to their dependencies, they reorder the load order of them
the quickest fix would be removing lux's food mod right
well it's still taking a while, but turning off defender put it at 2x the previous speed 🤣
Yes, unfortunately
hmm
My guess is that you previously installed DGA farmer to florist (the bad DGA F2F version), then did some things. Then you uninstalled it and put in the good JA F2F version, but you still had some stuff leftover from the bad DGA F2F, which is these error items.
i'm not sure what the item is but i did get it from the golden bear stauts i have
Well I have no idea what a golden bear statue is
Maybe instead it's a different mod
Something is broken then, but I have no idea what without a log
and i have Staute of True Prefection and Staute Of Perfection
https://smapi.io/log/d6a54e4a880f450ea26c45e34ec4cb3c here is my log @lament prairie
the end of fall and it Susan birthday
It's probably trying to produce one of Susan's loved gifts
I'm not familiar with Susan because she's from SVE
I'm not sure why it would give you an error item though
You might need to ask in the SVE discord
i gave her chocolate cake
i might have to go in there ask them about than
anyways i found something neat i didn't know you can adopt , a horse 😄
that would probably be adopt n skin
yeah it was so now i have another horse on my farm
ok, removing lux's fixed the sprites, but the tile mismatch is still present
that's probably a recolor load order or a messed up recolor
you can do a patch summary and check for things that edit Maps/fall_outdoors
!patchsummary
Can you do these steps to provide more info?
- Load your save and view the content that should be patched.
- Type
patch summarydirectly into the SMAPI window and press enter. - Upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page).
- Post the log link here.
You have:
Better Water
Eemie's Just a New Map Recolor
Medieval Buildings
SVE
all editing fall_outdoors
yeah I'm disabling eemies
It's probably a conflict between some of these; you can check by doing patch export Maps/fall_outdoorsTileSheet as well to see what the actual tilesheet looks like
huh, manually disabling a mod causes Stardrop/SMAPI to freak out
Why is UI info Suite not updated
See pins
its a nice mod helps alot
It's in the FAQ
thanks
uhh...
i need help w/ smapi, the game sometimes freezes permanently and i must forcefully close it with the X.
I'm on windows.
1.5.5 of stardew valley.
Smapi log:https://smapi.io/log/e1c0f36597084413b23d4b2f8a34ec0e
this is the right place to ask for mod help right?
oh, i'm on GOG
yes, but not a lot of people are online around this time because its early morning in both america and europe
10 to 12, yes
let it load
it needs time
i once left it for one hour
was SMAPI in select mode?
if it's time it needs, it's too much to not be a problem
i do not know what that is.
it will say select if it's in select mode
.quote 5758
[#5758] "Vortex (Nexus) and Mod Drop both are mod managers that can help you keep your mods up to date. Unfortunately, both of them occasionally have issues with Stardew Valley mods, including but not limited to deleting files, mangling configs, and causing opaque errors. You can still use them, but if you run into issues and ask for help troubleshooting, the first piece of advice you’ll get is to stop using the mod manager, because it may obscure the real issue or be the cause of your issue.
If you want to stop using a mod manager, it's pretty easy to mod Stardew Valley manually! Just follow the instructions in this wiki page: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started" - @lament prairie (14 Nov 2021 @ 07:40:32 PM UTC)
ops
i just wanted to play stardew valley expanded
You can. Moddrop just seems to have an issue? At least SVE on its own shouldn't cause freezing I think.
If you were running other expansions and lots of JA mods I wouldn't be surprised if it freezes occasionally
well now to take two more weeks to uninstall moddrop and reinstall everything
nope, just SVE, but my computer sucks.
SVE might be too big then? Though I dunno what SVE needs. I don't use it any more.
is freezing a common issue w/moddrop?
I don't know sorry, I don't use mod manager but if you want to keep using one I'd recommend Stardrop
I also recommend stardrop
Do you need smapi for anime portraits?
An XNB mod replaces some of your game's .xnb files to change the game (unlike newer mods that go in your Mods folder). This is an older type of mod that's no longer recommended, and can cause a number of issues. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods for help using them (and a list of alternatives using Content Patcher), and https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).

Well I have issues with smapi and stardew valley and it only worked for me once( probably because I'm stupid) and I'm stuck on compatibility mode and smapi doesn't work if your in it so I can't really play moded so I might stick with the xnb
why are you stuck on compatibility mode?
any one got a fix for vanilla exanded I cant get it to work, ive fixed every error in the SMAPI consol but im still arriving in the default farm,
also does Pathoschild still come on this server, I want to pick their brains on somthing to do with their mod which keeps throwing an out of date issue
goes by the name of Routine#8715
also
I'm on android and attempting to force compatibility, I read some stuff here https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/smapi-stardew-modding-api.108375/page-111 about changing the status to "AssumeCompatible". I am aware that it could corrupt my game file and so I've made a backup, but it couldn't hurt to try
ok cool, your help is much appreciated! thanks for explaining that!
Ah im trying to mod it on pc
ah ok sorry
No offense
...
its ok
Routine and Pathoschild are not the same person
Ty,
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
where would I find those?
see instructions from bot!
ah thanks
also it seems non of the mod content in my game is working what so ever
wait did I do it again?
you're talking about Stardew Valley Expanded?
yeah
the log makes it seem it's working fine 🤔
not sure why the content is not working then
ohh you're getting only to the default farm?
NPCs: cya later alligator
when downloading the blue one (Stardew Valley Expanded) and you also want one of the custom farms, choose either one of the red ones. Information on what they look like is in the description of the mod page
ah ok
