[untold coral]

Boob is it my turn yet

[terse needle]

sorry, and thanks for your help

[dusky canyon]

LMAO omg sorry I forgot my name was rebooba here so I just thought you were randomly saying boobs

[untold coral]

Lol

[dusky canyon]

I'm assuming you followed this quote right?

[untold coral]

So I use android and trying to ignore incompatibility

I read here https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/smapi-stardew-modding-api.108375/page-111

[dusky canyon]

ohh I see

[untold coral]

That you can edit stardewmoddingapi config.json file and change status value to 'AssumeCompatible'

[dusky canyon]

That was in 2018, is that option still available?

[untold coral]

So far I can't find a json file that lets me do that, but there is a file named metadata.json that has preconfigured "compatibility settings" for mods that are confirmed not working with that version of smapi

[dusky canyon]

Ohhhh I see yes

I've never tried that out, but I assume like if you want to load CustomFurniture for example, it'd become:

"Custom Furniture": { "ID": "Platonymous.CustomFurniture", "~0.11.2 | Status": "AssumeCompatible", "~0.11.2 | StatusReasonDetails": "causes errors and custom furniture no longer work in Stardew Valley 1.5" },

[untold coral]

Right now I'm trying to get an old damage overlay mod working

[dusky canyon]

okay

so I would say, go to the manifest.json of that mod you want to get working (it might not though, even if you do this)

[untold coral]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8796?tab=files&file_id=42554

[dusky canyon]

okay hmm

[untold coral]

I did go to the manifest.json of the mod

[gaunt gust]

Can I see a log

There are two reasons why a mod may be labeled incompatible.

One is the denylist

[untold coral]

Ok

Can't send files due to extremely shit service

[gaunt gust]

The other is if the mod tries to call code that does not exist.

[untold coral]

SMAPI-latest.txt is the only log file

[gaunt gust]

Look into the TRACE. SMAPI will tell you

[untold coral]

Android, btw

[dusky canyon]

If the log isn't saying much
add this
"Put Name of mod here": { "ID": "Put UniqueID here", "~Put version here | Status": "AssumeCompatible", "~Put version here | StatusReasonDetails": "causes errors and custom furniture no longer work in Stardew Valley 1.5" },

(I'm only assuming, so this is what you could try, but what atravita is saying is also applying)

[gaunt gust]

Open that up and read it, near the top should tell yoy

[untold coral]

Can't find that

[gaunt gust]

You should not edit the denylist

[untold coral]

What's file path

[gaunt gust]

In that file you just had,

[untold coral]

Not really editing, just adding

[gaunt gust]

If you believe a mod actually works, increment the patch number by 1

[dusky canyon]

how did I not think of that

[gaunt gust]

The denylist looks for specific versions

[untold coral]

In the Folder ErrorLogs there's only

[untold coral]

I don't understand

[untold coral]

Also it's not in the denylist

[dusky canyon]

do a +1 to the version

[terse needle]

Yuss apply ork logic and it will work because you belive it

[dusky canyon]

so if its 1.2.4 do 1.2.5

[gaunt gust]

I mean, this is likely a case of "calls code not in existence"

[untold coral]

Version of smapi?

[dusky canyon]

nonoonono

the version of Damage Overlay

[gaunt gust]

The mod

[untold coral]

How does the version of damage overlay matter

[untold coral]

Because it's not in the deny log

[gaunt gust]

In this case it likely doesn't

I was just telling you the denylist works by looking for specific version numbers

[gaunt gust]

In your case, you need to find the broken code and fix it

Which, uh, is hard

[untold coral]

Right but the mod isn't listed in the deny list so changing the version wouldn't matter, right?

[gaunt gust]

The log (smapi-latest) will tell you why broke

[untold coral]

Ok so, how do I change .dll files, and should I?

[gaunt gust]

The mod, iirc is open source.

You may need to figure out how to compile it for android.

[untold coral]

[05:43:13 ERROR SMAPI] These mods could not be added to your game.

[05:43:13 ERROR SMAPI] - Damage Overlay 0.10.0 because it's no longer compatible. Please check for a new version at https://smapi.io/mods

I need the TRACE section of the log

It has details

[untold coral]

Is this in a specific area

Top or bottom

Found it

[gaunt gust]

Yup

[untold coral]

Hm

So how would I go about fixing that

[gaunt gust]

Do you know c#

[untold coral]

From what lil I know about code, looks like some kinda outdated function

No

[gaunt gust]

Yeah....most of us don't develop on or for mobile

So I don't even have the faintest clue how to set up a dev environment

[untold coral]

From what I can tell it's fixable by just replacing function name/value/Id with the updated one so that it can work properly with smapi

[oblique barn]

You could also always try giving Pepoluan (the mod maker) a poke to see if a compatible version can be made. He's been inactive for a few months in the discord, but is generally has been pretty responsive in the past when I reached out to him for assistance (I've taken over a few of his older mods).

[gaunt gust]

And compiling

[untold coral]

Like if that function name in 0.2 was Keybindautomatic, and there was an update in versions, and the update included simplifying the code for easier modding/navigation/troubleshooting, 0.3 would change the function name to keybindautomated

(As an example)

Rright

I need a pc

And good internet

Modding would be fun to learn

[gaunt gust]

Yup, it is!

[royal zenith]

My game keeps crashing with mods when I try to make a new multiplayer save

[untold coral]

First thing I'd do is mess around with NPC text/maybe probability to say something, and make them say funny stuff

Baby steps

K I'll stop ranting

[gaunt gust]

You can do that without c#/a pc.

[untold coral]

Can I DM him without being banned?

[gaunt gust]

Dialogue can be edited with Content Patcher

[oblique barn]

That... Is a good question. I don't actually know the server rules for that sort of thing.

[gaunt gust]

[native dragon]

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

[royal zenith]

ok

https://smapi.io/log/92387fd4372b40f2a02339e1257c6c08

[gaunt gust]

...what is that

[oblique barn]

As a side note, android-specific modding is somewhat voodoo. The most concrete info outside of smapi itself is:
https://stardewvalleywiki.com/User:Kdau#Notes_on_Android_SMAPI_modding and https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Android

[gaunt gust]

Yeah.....

[oblique barn]

That looks like a VC++ Redistributable installation log. 😛

[royal zenith]

ikr, I followed the instructions

[oblique barn]

You put in the smapi-latest.txt from %appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs?

[royal zenith]

I went to %appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs with the run box and it opened a file in firefox

[gaunt gust]

What

[oblique barn]

Uhh.... That doesn't make any sense at all. It should open an explorer window.

With a list of files.

Are you on windows? 🤔

[royal zenith]

mind if I show u in dm through a screen share?

[oblique barn]

Sure, i don't mind, i'll be microphone off though, since its 5am and my SO is sleeping just a bit away from me. 😛

[royal zenith]

anyone knows why my game crashes when I attempt to make a new save in multiplayer?

[gaunt gust]

I'm not seeing a specific error in your log

can you try to create a new multiplayer save and then send that log?

[royal zenith]

Could it be Always on Server?

[gaunt gust]

but, also, like, if I had to hazard a guess, it'd be Always On Server

[royal zenith]

I've done it twice of making a new save

I've removed always on server and I will be testing if it still crashes

[gaunt gust]

if it crashes, send that log

[royal zenith]

Ok

[sly heron]

Are there any up-to-date mods that prevent soil from magically stamping itself down at night? I used to use No Soil Decay, but it seems dead

[royal zenith]

new problem, it is frozen here:

[glossy star]

how long should it take for stardew valley to load with mods

[finite lake]

Depends

[glossy star]

ive been stuck for a few minutes now

[royal zenith]

10 minutes later, it finally loads. The crashing stopped

[finite lake]

Maximum 30min

[gaunt gust]

okay, so always on server has problems now, possibly

[finite lake]

depends on your system

[glossy star]

ah

[royal zenith]

most likely

[glossy star]

nvm its loaded now

[finite lake]

Sometimes if u click in the console it stops loading for a reason though.

[glossy star]

ahh

also

i think this problen is in modded or vanilla for me

but

when i clck the loading screen while loading a save

it crashes

but not all the time

idk why

[chrome cosmos]

thats normal, hit enter and it will continue

[royal zenith]

If someone would join my multiplayer save, would they need to download the mods before they can join the save?

[crystal kelp]

im having a problem with smapi

when i try to press the windows key to switch to a different tab the task bar just doesnt appear

sdv remains on my screen and i have to guess where the tab i want to go to is

[dusky canyon]

Never touch while it's loading, also don't touch it when it says it's unresponsive. If you do touch it, it'll take much longer than necessary

[crystal kelp]

and it also means i cant take screenshots because when i do that it just takes a screenshot of my desktop

@royal zenith ☝️

[fringe forge]

is nexus down again?

yeah, seems like it

[gaunt gust]

Works for me

[crystal kelp]

thanks for the response guys

helped a lot

[sweet lodge]

I'm on fall 4, year 1 and already caught a kittyfish. Is this a bug?

On my previous save, it took me 3 years to catch a kittyfish

[late nebula]

Being passive aggressive isn't nice.

I have no idea how to fix your issue.

[fringe forge]

works again now, yes, down detector websites told me it was down though too so their servers had a small hiccup

[late nebula]

I'm sure someone will pipe up when they do.

[royal zenith]

thanks

[crystal kelp]

i just figured out how to do it but now xbox game bar wont let me record which is what i wanted to do in the first place

[fringe forge]

can you verify that this isn't stardew valley in general? since a few updates it behaves a bit differently no matter if you have smapi or not. screenshots are a bit weird, tabbing out works differently etc

[deep yarrow]

i've been having this issue with my mini map after i deleted sve and it still keeps showing the buildings from the mod, now i tried reinstalling npc map locations but that didn't help, are there any other way to maybe fix this? this is my log: https://smapi.io/log/b2a2a93cdb264e2facd4ece1fb7c25cc

[late nebula]

Does it fix it if you remove Starblue?

[ornate pawn]

Does JA always take ages to load?

I have about 100 mods installed, all of em load quickly then it pauses after something about BFAV API not being loaded then about 4 minutes later, JA mods load

[late nebula]

It can sometimes

If you do a log and turn on trace that might give you a better idea

[deep yarrow]

i just checked and nope it still looks like this

[late nebula]

You still have it installed. I can tell by the UI.

[deep yarrow]

oh huh

[ornate pawn]

I'll do that when I get home

[late nebula]

I'm wondering if maybe something had you overwrite the map in Starblue to be compatible with SVE. If so, redownloading Starblue should fix it. Otherwise, we may need a different type of log.

[deep yarrow]

i have no idea, i'll try redownloading it

[deep yarrow]

it still looks the same after redownloading it

[late nebula]

Okay so we can try a patch summary.

!patchsummary

[native dragon]

Can you do these steps to provide more info?

1. Load your save and view the content that should be patched.
2. Type patch summary directly into the SMAPI window and press enter.
3. Upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page).
4. Post the log link here.

[deep yarrow]

https://smapi.io/log/d4c00ea6de704286b31ada764854ace3

[late nebula]

(Just as an aside, Medieval Craftables and Way Back Pelican Town aren't compatible with Starblue according to your log. Starblue really isn't compatible with much of anything.)

I don't think that did the patch summary.

Did you type the command into the console window?

[deep yarrow]

oops i think i mightve done that wrong

[loud maple]

Hey guys! I cant enter the ||Enchanted Grove||. Just got all the cutscenes but now im stuck behind this bush?

[native dragon]

Reset Terrain Features (https://smapi.io/mods/#Reset_Terrain_Features) is a mod that lets you reset, clear, or generate everything that spawns on a map using an in-game menu. That's especially useful when changing maps mid-save, as the debris will otherwise use the old layout (causing things like trees in the water or bushes blocking exits).

[deep yarrow]

is this the right one; https://smapi.io/log/decd51ed09624e30a1464e4bcad63a53 ?

[loud maple]

Thanks it worked!

[elder wadi]

Hey, has anyone used the online stardew valley crop planner?

[gloomy tendon]

Hi, can I ask you someting guys? Is Ridgeside Village Mod compatible with Stardew Valley Expanded Mod?

[late nebula]

yes

[gloomy tendon]

Thank you ❤️

So i can have both mods ❤️ So excited ❤️

[gaunt gust]

I will point out that both can be resource-intensive

so having both might slow down your computer

[gloomy tendon]

True 😦 So maybe I download only Richside Village, I haven't played it yet.

[late nebula]

Yeah that's it. You also have Earthy Recolor which is definitely not compatible with Starblue. I also see one piece of Grandpa's Farm left. The FTM bit. Looking through the rest now...

[gaunt gust]

try it! see how your PC likes it

[gloomy tendon]

ok 🙂 thanks for advice 🙂

[late nebula]

The map is being replaced by "Dark Wood Interface" (also not compatible with Starblue 😂 )

So I would look there for config options

See if there is anything that could be of help

[bright violet]

hi so like i installed some mods yesterday

and when i openend the game with smapi

this appeared

i've deleted all of them

it's still like this

what do i do?

[deep yarrow]

oh god lol didn't know i had so many things that aren't compatible with eachother installed. will definitely be deleting starblue tho

[chrome cosmos]

!startuppref

[native dragon]

@bright violet If your resolution is messed up try deleting startup_preferences This can be found on Windows at %appdata% > Stardew Valley > it's in that folder, or C:\Users\Yourwindowsnamehere\AppData\Roaming\StardewValley or for Mac can be found at ~/.config/StardewValley To get here you'll want to go to your desktop, then in the menu bar select Go -> Go to Folder...

[late nebula]

Yeah, the rest would work fine together

Starblue is meant to be a kind of stand-alone overhaul though.

I'm trying to look into that Interface mod, but I'm not sure if the version you have is the one on Nexus since the one on Nexus doesn't have files to replace the map.

But it does in the patch summary O_O

[cyan wren]

Hey, so I'm trying to use the "A Bigger, Better Hilltop" mod, but my farm isn't changing.
The last updated version on Nexus is a .rar file, so the comments said to download the older file instead, which I did.
My logs say that SMAPI is blocking it because of a crash or something? Anyone know how to get this mod to work or maybe know of a working Hilltop map that I can use instead? I don't want to mess with my current save, I love the Hilltop, I just need a little bit more room.

Log: https://smapi.io/log/510b5c242a5b4e7f98ed71facd57d123

Technical details for mod author: Expected order: Paths, untitled tile sheet.
https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Maps#Tilesheet_order

if the mod author isn't around, you could try to fix it yourself. Isn't that hard

[late nebula]

You could alternatively use this one. I'm working on an update to it that I should have out in the next few days. And I know it doesn't edit the map. https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4697

[cyan wren]

I haven't been using mods for very long, I honestly wouldn't know where to start in fixing one lol.

[late nebula]

I just need to make myself sit and stare at the content.json file for an hour or two...

[gaunt gust]

!unzip

[native dragon]

@cyan wren 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.

[gaunt gust]

one of these programs should unpack the rar for you

[cyan wren]

Thanks! I'll try that now.

[deep yarrow]

oooh okay! :) i'll download that one and see if it fixes the map thanks!

[gaunt gust]

have you tried reinstalling npc map locations yet?

[deep yarrow]

yep tried today but it didn't fix anything sadly

[oblique barn]

Ooooo, didn't realize you were the creator of Vintage Interface Multipack, one of my favs! 🙂

[late nebula]

I am not really

I just stuck them together

Also you should switch to the original mods because I am yeeting VIM into the sun after I finish the update for the original pages.

(They are my faves too )

[deep yarrow]

honestly i have no idea if i'm doing something wrong but the map still looks weird i'll just stick to what it looks like rn lmao

[late nebula]

Okay.. Tryone more thing

!reset

[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 :)

[late nebula]

If that doesn't fix it, then you may need to do the old "remove one mod at a time" method.

Other than NPC Map Locations, I have no idea what else could possibly be messing with your map.

[deep yarrow]

okay i'll try that! thank you for your time

[cyan wren]

@gaunt gust It worked! Thanks so much!

[solar juniper]

Would it make sense to use the SVE mod when youre a new player? :D Or like, should I wait a bit and like wait until I dont have so much to do in sv?

[late nebula]

SVE isn't recommended for old saves, but I also wouldn't recommend it to a new player either.

It adds a lot to the vanilla game and changes a lot of stuff.

[solar juniper]

Okay! Thanks

[dire fractal]

it's interesting that people (even the creator) say that newbies shouldn't play SVE, if anything it feels more designed towards newer players

design decisions like giving you early sprinklers and strawberries, the forced scarecrow tutorials, you having bigger farms

guys what is thiiiisss

[vestal dust]

Reinstall the content patcher mod

[dire fractal]

whats that 💀

smpai??

[vestal dust]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1915

[dire fractal]

ohhh i need had it downloaded

[dire fractal]

do i put it in mods?

[royal tundra]

I think you also have two conflicting texture mods

but yep, unzip it and put it in mods, like the others

[late nebula]

I just personally feel that one should experience vanilla for what it is first before they dive too deep into changing it.

[dire fractal]

no thats fair, creator's vision and all haha

[late nebula]

If SVE didn't change vanilla so much, I might recommend it.

[dire fractal]

i've known some people who dislike SDV until playing SVE, so theres always a trade off

[late nebula]

Yeah

[dire fractal]

yeahh thanks i fixed itttt

[chrome ravine]

Hey so I tried to install smapi via smapi.io and then I was having issues after unzipping it so I uninstalled it through the correct menu but I still have like 170 files from the unzipped folder and my stardew valley won't launch. I removed the launch message from my steam properties but it still won't load. I'd rather not lose my save if possible, but I don't know what to do. I was previously having issues with smapi so this is actually my 2nd time installing it, but prior to today I downloaded it through nexus mod.

[gaunt gust]

uninstalling and reinstalling the game will not affect your saves

!legacy you may want to consider the legacy version

[native dragon]

If your computer is an older 32-bit system, you will need to use the compatibility version of the game. Some older 64-bit systems may need to use this version as well. Please be aware that SMAPI/game mods are not compatible with this version.

On Steam: In your library, right-click Stardew Valley and select Properties... > Betas > then "compatibility" under the dropdown.
On GOG: From the game's page, click the settings icon > Manage installation > Configure... > then "compatibility" under the Beta channels dropdown.

[gaunt gust]

also, the many files aren't from SMAPI, they're from the game itself

which bundles a lot of dependencies with it

[chrome ravine]

oh

I'm really bad with tech ngl, which files are the game itself though?

[dire fractal]

is there a cute mod for outfits btw

[chrome ravine]

I feel like I didn't have as many files prior to installing smapi, but maybe they were in a different folder? I just want my game to launch.

[gaunt gust]

The many files is a new thing for Stardew 1.5.5

[chrome ravine]

ah

well I'm not sure what's wrong, when I launch the game from steam it says running and then immediately goes back to just saying play.

[gaunt gust]

Try the legacy version

!legacy

[native dragon]

If your computer is an older 32-bit system, you will need to use the compatibility version of the game. Some older 64-bit systems may need to use this version as well. Please be aware that SMAPI/game mods are not compatible with this version.

[chrome ravine]

Ok it launched, but I can't use smapi now?

Is there a way to fix it so I can reinstall smapi? I was using stardew with mods for a while with no issues. The issues only started as of recent.

[worldly garden]

I want to install the npc map location mod, do i need to install these 4 as well?

[gaunt gust]

you could update your graphics drivers or revert to 1.5.4

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#SMAPI_doesn.27t_work_with_compatibility_branch

I am going to warn you that I do not have the time today to walk you through this

Feel free to ask for help, and maybe someone will come by to assist

[gaunt gust]

no.

[chrome ravine]

That's fine! This is more enough help for now! I have someone who's better with tech that can help in a bit. Thanks for all the help, at least I can get it running vanilla now!

[worldly garden]

Just the ones that say required?

[gaunt gust]

no, you do not need any mod from the section "Mods requiring this file"

[worldly garden]

Oh ok i saw a YouTube video that said u needed to install those

[gaunt gust]

YouTube install guides often become outdated and thus are often flat-wrong. We keep the wiki pages up to date, but cannot guarantee the correctness of YouTube videos or other video guides. Thus, we tend to not recommend them.

Thank you, i was getting a bunch of errors in the terminal when i started up the game, but everything worked fine when I downloaded just the main mods

i downloaded it before,but there were problems

Robbin blinks and cheat was applied

Speed cheat..

I sincerly hope to use mode but i couldn’t use..

[chrome cosmos]

pytk cant cause cheats, if you have cjb cheats menu you have to disable/lower the speed

Still getting the error message

[fluid crest]

Ugh I hate that giant crops only drop bottom quality stuff

No effect whatsoever from fertilizer

[gaunt gust]

fwiw, because Gamepass's idea of DRM is permissions mangling, it's best to entirely start over with teh guide

uninstall the game, start over.

[coral basin]

Yikes, I figured because it was gamepass that I would have a hard time with it... 😩

They shouldn't make it so hard if they are going to let you mod something you know

[gaunt gust]

"blame microsoft"

[lament prairie]

Follow the gettingstarted guide and it will tell you (with pictures) how to install SMAPI on a Mac to get around permissions issues.

[gaunt gust]

fwiw, the game on sale is roughly equivalent to a month's worth of gamepass, so....

[late nebula]

Is the sale still going?

[coral basin]

haha right

[coral basin]

yea Microsoft is not letting the mod start no matter what I do to make it work

[gaunt gust]

fwiw, if you're unzipping the installer into the game directory, you shouldn't do that

[coral basin]

it's starting to piss me off

[gaunt gust]

it shouldn't currently break anything, but also, the installer works from anywhere (on the C drive, at least)

and, again, the game directory is Fun With Permissions on Gamepass

[late nebula]

If it's making you angry, maybe take a break.

[coral basin]

ok ... Well I'm confused .. and there isn't much that confuses me when it comes to computers .. but damn this is getting me a little pissed haha

[gaunt gust]

I was pretty annoyed at Gamepass when I found out how it handles permissions

[coral basin]

yeah

[gaunt gust]

like, I don't like Windows permissions to start with, and then that?

[late nebula]

Others have had issues with Steam so it's not like 100% without problem. I just either get lucky or know too much about computers.

[coral basin]

I think that you may have just helped me figure out something that I was doing wrong ...

[coral basin]

hahah right .

@gaunt gust when you said the C drive, I didn't even think about that. I have my game on a completely different dive. Since i have build my computer for work and Gaming

[gaunt gust]

wait, does the installer still not work from the C drive?

[coral basin]

no

the game is on my D Drive and the Installer is on my C drive

[gaunt gust]

it was throwing errors before when the installer was not on the C drive

[coral basin]

Like I watch videos to make sure that wasn't a problem but it seems like it is..

[late nebula]

It should be asking you where your game files are.

Like if it can't find them.

[gaunt gust]

wait a sec, you got Gamepass on a different drive!

how?

[coral basin]

I haven't had it on anything but the C drive... I need to download it on the same drive as the game to see if that works.. Idon't know what I didn't think about that ... Before i do let me show you guys that it shows me before i type the path in .

[coral basin]

So i have the game files like @late nebula was saying... on a different drive...

[gaunt gust]

yeah, so how did you convince Gamepass to do that?

[coral basin]

Gamepass gave me the option to do so

with no problem

[gaunt gust]

oh, really!

[coral basin]

I'll show you what i'm talking about

[gaunt gust]

Thanks!

(I've been assuming the save directory etc/is a consistent location...but if it's not....)

[coral basin]

This is where all my gaming files go to no matter where they are coming from

as you know that gamepass is on the C drive ..

[jolly echo]

Hey there is it normal for the game to take a min when i click load and then another min to actually load the save? I do have alot of mods loaded 155 to be exact however once loaded its just fine

[gaunt gust]

(I don't use Gamepass personally, so I know next to nothing about it, but having to instruct people how to find their smapi logs....)

[coral basin]

well it lets me put the files that i download into another file

haha ... yeah

[jolly echo]

Your saves should always save to %appdata% - stardewvalley

[neat plaza]

yep normal enough

[neat plaza]

not with gamepass

[gaunt gust]

so basically I have to wait for someone to tell me the instructions are wrong for Gamepass, again

[neat plaza]

it's %localappdata%\some stuff\StardewValley

[coral basin]

but you helped me when you said something about that C dive i'll show you the error message that i'm getting when I try to install the Smapi

[gaunt gust]

hum

[gaunt gust]

oh yeah, that's normal

cuz the installer doesn't have autodetect for gamepass yet

and even if it did, you moved it

[jolly echo]

So thats super easy to fix my dude

[coral basin]

right

[gaunt gust]

just give the installer the address, should be fine

[coral basin]

yeah when I give it the address it gives me this

[gaunt gust]

have you EnabledMods?

[jolly echo]

Oh

[coral basin]

Yeah .. In gamepass i did

[jolly echo]

Acess is denied

Right click the folder and goto properties

Make sure its read and writable

[gaunt gust]

hum

have you tried uninstalling/reinstalling the game....?

[coral basin]

yeah and i'm thinking it is because i have the game on another drive

or i will just reinstall the mod, on the right drive to see if that will work😫

[jolly echo]

Also another suggestion try coppying the smapi install stuff to that drive and then running it as admin from that drive

[coral basin]

yeah i will let you know what happens

thank yoyu

[jolly echo]

But do make sure that the stardew valley folder is read/writeable for everything

[coral basin]

eyah

ok

so it didn;t work

[stray spire]

the fact that you didn't label that drive as "G:" is blasphemous

[coral basin]

When you are running three business's and trying to keep your real time life at bay,, you kind of forget the GAMING CODE !!!

I haven't been able to have a decent gaming session in a long time... So Please i think that I have a pass on this one

Don't be in a hurry. It needs work.

[coral basin]

AGREEDED!!!

And i Waited almost 6 months to get it and it still needs work

[late nebula]

Still can't make my taskbar smaller

[fiery portal]

ok, this may not be super helpful, but what you're doing is what my original setup was:

1. gamepass on C:
2. stardew on D:
3. run SMAPI installer on C: and point to modifiable folder on D:

And it was working, so theoretically it should work at least. So it should be a solvable problem.

[gaunt gust]

worst case senario....try a manual install....

[coral basin]

yep... !! and that get's on my nerves so bad... !!!

[gaunt gust]

(instructions in the README of the installer)

[fiery portal]

I guess the big difference is I'm still on W10 and not W11

[coral basin]

yeah ... I think that is what it is ...

[fiery portal]

can you get inside the modifiable folder yourself even?

[coral basin]

So with gamepass they will let you get into the folder and everything like that... I'm running through the README file now to see if there is something that i missed .

[fiery portal]

huh weird

[coral basin]

I know right

[copper juniper]

on multiplayer, as a farmhand & not farm owner: my chests (using chest anywhere mod) aren’t linking. yes the option to view all chests are turned on for both farmer & farmhand

@ least my chests in other areas of the map (mine, town), all my ‘farm’ chests are linking

chests are also not hidden

[#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)

[oblique night]

How do i use mods on mobile

[neat plaza]

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

@oblique night 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.

[coral basin]

Ok well i have tried everything except deleting all i have already done on the game and everything .. Just going to play it through ...

this is becoming more of a headache than needed

thanks for all the help

So I downloaded the Rigdeside village mod, created a new farm and the game automatically loaded the gamepad mod. I don't have the gamepad plugged in and it doesn't work via the escape menu to turn the gamepad mod off. So now i can't play 😦

[finite lake]

This is amazing

How can I reproduce it

[shy orbit]

what's the gamepad mod? it's probably fine to just remove it when you don't need it

[gloomy tendon]

I don't have option to turn it off or remove ... it turn on automatically everytime I create a new farm ...

[shy orbit]

do you mean the native game gamepad setting?

[gloomy tendon]

Yes ... i downloaded Ridgeside Village mod, and now, when I start new farm, i can't go to menu .... and game turn on automatically gamepad mod ....

[shy orbit]

!startuppreferences

[finite lake]

Remove it from file system

Mods folder

[shy orbit]

hm. not that command apparently. but deleting the startup_preferences file might fix that

[gloomy tendon]

It's not a mod, it's part of the game from new update 1.15 ...

[finite lake]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2229

Quick help

[gloomy tendon]

Thanks, I will try it ..

This mod work, thank you. But I still can't go to menu ... escape or E don't work 😦

[finite lake]

Hmm well then there is a problem with your game, keyboard or SMAPI mod conflicts. You got any errors in console? Tried launching the game in vanilla and you could open the menu?

Can u use M to open map and F to open journal? Or it doesn't work too?

[gloomy tendon]

In vanilla version is everything ok. So problem is maybe in SMAPI ... so I will continue in vanilla game without mods ...

I'll try to reinstall it all over again this weekend to see if I made a mistake somewhere during the installation.

[finite lake]

Upload your smapi log at https://smapi.io/log so we can find the issue of the problem. We all use SMAPI without problems

I asked my husband if he'd watch it tomorrow. Unfortunately, I have to work today, so I won't be able to watch it. But I'll check it out this weekend. Thank you so much for your help and have a nice evening.

[naive drum]

you don't have to watch anything you just upload a file and link it here

[split patrol]

Would switching from 1.5.5 to 1.5.4 cause a lot of issues when using mods?

[royal arrow]

If you saved in 1.5.5, it's not backwards compatible for 1.5.4. You'd have to have kept a save from before saving in 1.5.5

[lament prairie]

Also, mod development will probably never go backwards to 1.5.4, so that puts a limit on which mods you can use

[royal arrow]

The mods themselves may need to be older versions, but it'd depend by the mod. Idk how many specify on the mod page if they're not compatible with 1.5.4 anymore

[lament prairie]

Also people may have migrated their code to .NET 5.0 (the new framework used in 1.5.5)

[split patrol]

Oh damn, I wanted to see if playing on 1.5.4 fixed my lag issues. Pretty sure i had no problems until 1.5.5

[lament prairie]

You can try it, it's just a somewhat difficult longterm solution

[split patrol]

Also have this issue playing on vanilla :/ might have to wait if CA comes up with a fix

[royal arrow]

Looks suspiciously at PyTK/TMXL as the cause for your lag

[split patrol]

I've never had issues before tho, and its present even in vanilla/no smapi D:

[royal arrow]

Even vanilla?

On a new save or an existing one?

[split patrol]

[rancid swan]

Hey was checking in, been about a week since I last looked into it, is there any news on a possible fix for the Unofficial PYTK that's causing long load times or still just waiting foe the dev?

[royal arrow]

There is an unofficial update, and that's the one that works.
If you mean lag even with that, then no, no fix for that yet

[rancid swan]

Yeah that's what I mean, didn't know if anyone was working on a fix for that, thanks! 😄

[royal arrow]

Honestly I think people are like
Because PyTK is a big code mod and there are a lot of components to it. There has been talk of breaking up its functionality into different smaller mods, which would be easier to maintain, but idk if anyone has braved those turbulent waters

[rancid swan]

Yeah that's what some of the modders were talking about last week of it being a bit difficult for them and not wanting to go near it hahaha

[unreal stratus]

People are slowly converting their mods

[rancid swan]

It just sucks because the load time with several expansion mods currently is multiple minutes to load to main menu then into game so it's one of those things where I feel like I have to wait to do a playthrough or remove a bunch of mods

[rancid swan]

I've heard that too, I heard Flash was working on that

[elder ravine]

ok this is the best thing i've seen on nexus in a while lmao

[vale sorrel]

no option for it anywheree

Did you check the comments? I see multiple people have posted about it, maybe someone found a fix there

[elder ravine]

are those maybe the shoes you get as drops or in crates in mines?

maybe you can check in another save where you have already aquired some boots, to see if they look different

[digital lake]

Hello! I'm new to using smapi and I want to remote play with a friend, but she can only see the console, is there a way to fix that?

[lament prairie]

Are you using steam/GOG/Gamepass?

(You both need to be on the same kind afaik)

[digital lake]

Steam and she doesn't own it

[lament prairie]

I’m not sure how that works

Is remote play a steam feature?

[digital lake]

Yeah it lets me stream my game and we play it like local co-op

[lament prairie]

I don’t know how that works with SDV at all

Have you gotten it to work without mods?

[digital lake]

Without smapi she can see my screen yeah

[gaunt gust]

Unfortunately, it seems like the mod was created for 1.5, and I think it would take considerable editing to make it work for 1.4

[lament prairie]

Unlike many content patcher mods, ones that add a whole new language use 1.5.5 specific features

[jade citrus]

Hi, I recently updated from the original Ridgeside Village mod to the 2.0 version, but now I have a bunch of random bushes in awkward places like on top of houses and in the way of the streets. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

[lament prairie]

Reset terrain features

[gaunt gust]

!rtf

[native dragon]

Reset Terrain Features (https://smapi.io/mods/#Reset_Terrain_Features) is a mod that lets you reset, clear, or generate everything that spawns on a map using an in-game menu. That's especially useful when changing maps mid-save, as the debris will otherwise use the old layout (causing things like trees in the water or bushes blocking exits).

[restive basalt]

ok thanks for the answer

[jade citrus]

Thanks!!

[digital lake]

Without mods it works well, but with smapi she can only see the mod console

[gaunt gust]

are you on Mac/Linux?

(you can hide the console on Mac/Linux)

[digital lake]

I'm on windows

[gaunt gust]

ah, so there's not much we can do then.

[digital lake]

After some google searching it seems like people have gotten it to work, but Idk what I'm doing wrong

[last mantle]

are you launching smapi through steam?

[digital lake]

I tried launching through steam and just running SMAPI directly

neither worked

[restive basalt]

hopefully stardew valley on android will be updated to 1.5 soon as I can't find a file of the mod suitable for 1.4.5

[digital lake]

because the cmd window opens first, that's all she can see

[restive basalt]

i use this mod on my pc but i find it very sad that i can't use it on my android device Bringing the 1.5 update to mobile takes a long time

[gaunt gust]

I'm not sure what you want me to do about that, though....

like, if you want to, you could try to backport it to Android

[lament prairie]

You’d have to probably rewrite the mod to overwrite an existing language

It might have extra dialogue lines from 1.5 but that probably would be ok

[gaunt gust]

it probably does already, that's CP v 1.21

[lament prairie]

Ah okay

Then you’d have to go in and edit the CP Version and then debug any other problems that happen

[gaunt gust]

maybe just editing the CP version to 1.19 and then just trying to hammer out all the errors would work

[lament prairie]

Anyways if you do this and run into issues that’s getting into #making-mods-general territory, so you’d want to ask there

You might want to contact the original mod authors at that point as well

[restive basalt]

thanks for the help but i think i'll just let it be i have no experience with this

[late nebula]

I'm not sure if 1.19 had support for custom languages

[gaunt gust]

what happens if you run the game through the command line?

[silk owl]

ah sorry but how would i do that? i dont know much about this stuff

[gaunt gust]

@lament prairie ....uh, how does running the game through the command line work on Mac again?

sorry...

[lament prairie]

Oh dear, I’d have to go check

[gaunt gust]

right click in file explorer for an open in terminal option?

that's there for Linux

[lament prairie]

You cd to the right place then open StardewModdingAPI

I don’t know if you can right click in finder and get that

[gaunt gust]

in this case, I want mango to open the game, not stardewmoddingAPI

[lament prairie]

I always just cd

[gaunt gust]

kk

[lament prairie]

I’m away from my computer atm

You can maybe right click > open in terminal on the game itself?

Do BFAV modded animals still need to be added to config.json or is this all handled by the mod's content.json now? Having some issues focusing enough to figure it out right now but I don't remember exactly how this worked to begin with, and it looks like it may have changed

[gaunt gust]

do you know how to open a terminal on Mac?

[silk owl]

yeah i believe so ..?

[gaunt gust]

kay

Can you open a terminal?

(it should be somewhere in the app launcher

[silk owl]

yep

[gaunt gust]

then type cd "/Users/winter/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOS"

then type ./"Stardew Valley"

[silk owl]

yep

its saying "cd: string not in pwd:"

and then it just repeats the things i typed in

[gaunt gust]

string not in present...working...directory?

cd /Users/winter/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew\ Valley/Contents/MacOS

try two at the right command

[dire fractal]

@stray spire if I'm reading walk of life right, artisan would guarantee two iridium cheeses if you put in an iridium large milk?

[silk owl]

two?

[gaunt gust]

my second try at guessing the right command 😛

[silk owl]

ah alright

it just says dquote

do i press enter in between or no

[gaunt gust]

screenshot what you got?

the second one I sent has no quotes in it

(dquote <- you forgot to close a quote somewhere)

[brazen hawk]

I use some BFAV animals and just put them into the Mods folder.

[old bloom]

Thank you, looks like the process was streamlined then

now I just need to figure out how to format this thing

[gaunt gust]

cd /Users/winter/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew\ Valley/Contents/MacOS, hit enter

./"Stardew Valley", then hit enter

[silk owl]

zsh: no such file or directory: ./Stardew Valley

ah i may have to go for a bit sorry

[gaunt gust]

are you putting the quotes in?

[silk owl]

yep

[gaunt gust]

hum

[lament prairie]

What about ./Stardew\ Valley, or is that not how ./ works?

In an hour or two I’d be able to check myself

[gaunt gust]

smapi renames the exe on mac though

it's now something like Stardew Valley.original

or whatever it's called again

[lament prairie]

Oh I think it’s Stardew Valley original but no dot maybe an underscore?

[gaunt gust]

probably no dot

[lament prairie]

But I though opening the Unix executable named Stardew Valley works?

There’s actually two

One is 95kb

[gaunt gust]

that's now smapi, I thought?

[lament prairie]

One is like 8kb

[gaunt gust]

I want them to get the error log without SMAPI, because I think it's a game error

[lament prairie]

I don’t know what SMAPI does exactly

But I think there’s still Stardew Valley

[gaunt gust]

hum, well, it's pretty easy to tell, I gues

[lament prairie]

Sadly my memory is fallible so I’m not sure

[gaunt gust]

also, like, the line of code that does that is protected by an if statement

so...like, what.

[naive drum]

wouldnt smapi have a more detailed error message? like, there's an !installforlog command

you just, remove the mods that arent error handler first

[gaunt gust]

they have two mods, one's UI Info Suite 2 and the other is CP

neither use harmony

you in theory would get the exact same error on the command line

(this is what I did to isolate the libskiasharp error on Linux)

[stray spire]

yes

[dire fractal]

Lit

[jovial torrent]

stardew valley isnt opening

[dire fractal]

With your mod, a farm that has a crap ton of animal buildings sounds hilarious even if a bit high maintenance

[stray spire]

I totally expected you to follow with "So I only got 1 cheese" or some other bug complaint

[dire fractal]

lollll my b

[stray spire]

that's the idea

[jovial torrent]

im using smapi and its not opening

[stray spire]

screenshot of what you are opening?

[jovial torrent]

im treing to open all four of these and they wont open

ive been trying for a solid 30 mins

[unreal stratus]

it's actually a 5th one hidden as your recycle bin

[oblique barn]

🤔

Oh Oba, you silly goose.

[royal arrow]

Oba 🗞️

[jovial torrent]

how do i fix this?

[gaunt gust]

the second and third don't appear to be shortcuts

did you copy them from your game directory

[naive drum]

steam won't open? like, it's not hiding in the tray, it's just not opening?

[gaunt gust]

or is your desktop literally filled with a bunch of random files right now

[naive drum]

also yeah put those exes back into the game folder

[jovial torrent]

yeah its not opening at all

[gaunt gust]

(or are those symlinks and I don't know what symlinks look like Windows)

[royal arrow]

My shortcuts don't have the little arrow fwiw

[stray spire]

those aren't even shorcuts

[shy orbit]

(not sure if this got solved, but unix has the launcher as StardewValley without spaces)

[jovial torrent]

some video suggested opening the .exes hidden in the game files

[stray spire]

I meant a screenshot of the game folder though,

[jovial torrent]

its all full of random files

[naive drum]

Put them back

[oblique barn]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows if you followed a guide other than this one to install, i suggest following this instead, as you may not have installed it properly. 🙂

[stray spire]

yeah, find StardewModdingAPI.exe in there

[naive drum]

Those are the game's files, including its dependency .NET 5

[jovial torrent]

this?

[gaunt gust]

yes

[stray spire]

yeah open that

[jovial torrent]

wtf

[oblique barn]

Should pop up a fancy text window and then the game shortly after.

[stray spire]

and I suggest delete that crap on your desktop

[jovial torrent]

it worked

[stray spire]

right click and create a shortcut to that

[jovial torrent]

now why wont steam open

[stray spire]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Steam

reading is good

[gaunt gust]

don't random move around exe files, they often need the other files around them to function

[jovial torrent]

so how do i reset

[gaunt gust]

also for steam, just hit the Windows key and type "steam"

[stray spire]

how do you reset what?

[flat prawn]

Alrighty, my friend followed the Troubleshooting guide and nothing worked so here's the screenshot of the error message he gets when opening SMAPI using the command line.

[gaunt gust]

what

[flat prawn]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#.22Could_not_load_file_or_assembly.22 Followed this guide due to an error, did as such and nothing worked so it has been said to post an screenshot of the error.

that looks like an error bigger than SMAPI

[robust bison]

I would let atravita answer that, they're way more tch saavy than I am

[half tartan]

It happened to me that I installed the new version of smapi, but the .net error appeared, when it said on the web page that this error did not appear anymore, and I cannot install it because my pc is x32

[gaunt gust]

...I'm going to hazard a guess to "repair"

but I still have zero clue how you got there

[gaunt gust]

you're going to have to revert to 1.5.4 https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#SMAPI_doesn.27t_work_with_compatibility_branch

[half tartan]

And so will the new version of smapi work? So I can update the mods

[gaunt gust]

no, you will need to use smapi 3.12.8

[half tartan]

And will there be a time when that requirement is removed? Or will it always be for x64?

[gaunt gust]

Stardew will be a 64 bit game going forward, yeah

[half tartan]

The base game is fine for me, but now with the new smapi update everything has been ruined

[late nebula]

You can use the legacy version, but it can't be modded currently.

(Not sure if that will ever change)

[half tartan]

Damn

[late nebula]

Yeah the other option is like atravita mentioned if you really want to mod with 32-bit

[frank sundial]

Hello! I was wondering if anyone here would know how I can downgrade my game back to 1.5.5 as the 1.5.6 upgrade prevents my PyTK mod from starting the game I think. I can get the SMAPI log to load but not the game itself.

[gaunt gust]

!pins

[native dragon]

[dire fractal]

Can someone give me a good mod-pack

? Too lazy to download each mod one by one

[royal arrow]

That's not a thing in SDV modding. ModDrop offers modpacks in their mod manager I think, maybe try that.

[rotund mesa]

do mods still work in multiplayer?

Wait so xnb for portraits is bad right then what should I use

[late nebula]

CP or Portraiture versions

[silver frost]

So how do I put it into the game? just like a nornal mod where you put it in mods folder and extract it there

What is mod manager download is it good or should I just manual download

[gaunt gust]

.q 5758

[devout pumice]

[#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)

I downloaded oho David anime portraits but it said that it needs an update but I downloaded the 1.5 what do i do

It was updated in June 8 2021

[naive drum]

is it asking for an update in purple?

sometimes mod authors typo the version number in the mod's manifest and you get false update alerts as a result

[silver frost]

Yes what do I do

[naive drum]

Ignore it for now

it's most likely a typo on the mod author's aprt

[silver frost]

How about a red

[naive drum]

[silver frost]

I just downloaded them today so I can't these mods for now?

[naive drum]

Purple update alerts: the mod's internal version number is lower than the version number listed on its download page. Could be a typo, could be a new update, check the download page

Check on the smapi.io/mods page for updates or alternatives

[silver frost]

[pseudo jackal]

does anyone know of a mod that changes regular scarecrows into deluxe scarecrows? I want the deluxe scarecrow range, but I really prefer the look of the ghibli rarecrow

[lament prairie]

it would be a lot easier to do this with content patcher to change the deluxe scarecrow into the look of what you want

There is a mod that removes crows once all rarecrows are placed

[gaunt gust]

can't you just set the context tag these days?

[pseudo jackal]

I'd love to but I have no idea how to do that, lol

If there's an easy way to go about it, I'm game

but I'm not modder

[gaunt gust]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Migrate_to_Stardew_Valley_1.5.5#Custom_scarecrows

[lament prairie]

Which mod are you currently using for the scarecrows? (if any)

[pseudo jackal]

None unless you count range highlight, lol

[lament prairie]

Ah okay

[pseudo jackal]

Is this in content patcher's config?

[lament prairie]

No, you would need to use EditData on the context tags

Aka make a new content patcher mod

[pseudo jackal]

ah, yeah, I'd be pretty lost on that, lol

[gaunt gust]

IT's really easy

see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Content_Patcher

[coral jasper]

Question for everyone: which mod can I use to make my farm look nice? That would work with the new update! I also have stardew valley expanded in my game as well!

[pseudo jackal]

hm... I'll take a look

[pseudo jackal]

I recommend flower valley and earthy recolour myself

[gentle glen]

can some help me with that error item, that i have other place i ask in you know how that can go

[coral jasper]

@pseudo jackal and this works with the newest update ?!

[lament prairie]

Rarecrows are Big Craftables though so I'm pondering how you would add a context tag to them

[gaunt gust]

BigCraftables are still Objects

(I think?)

the documentation would make little sense otherwise

[lament prairie]

I think you have to do this via code, not content patcher

There's no data file where bigCraftable context tags are stored, afaik

There's ObjectContextTags but that's just for the normal Objects

The bigCraftables do have context tags but only the defaults added by code

[gaunt gust]

hum

BigCraftables are objects though

I guess the easiest way to check would be to use CP to add a tag, then call the radius function

[dire fractal]

Anyone using Ridgeside village and schedule an anniversary party for your spouse? I did and now im having an issue where it keep repeating every single day

[gentle glen]

Can i pick someone brain for a few mins

[pseudo jackal]

They work well enough for me at least : )

[lament prairie]

My point is that you can't use CP to add a tag because CP doesn't have a data file to edit

[gaunt gust]

wait, even if you added one, it doesn't get added?

[lament prairie]

Well hmm

I haven't tried stuffing things in there

One minute

[gaunt gust]

cuz bigcraftables are actually still Object

[craggy edge]

Any advice on how to connect to others in co-op, with mods? We all have the same mods, host made an exception on their firewall, but it still takes 3-20 tries to connect without the "Connection Failed" screen.

[gentle glen]

with DGA mod could that be my isssue

[lament prairie]

maybe, but it's really hard to tell why you'd get an error item so most people throw it away and try not to get another one. my current top suspicion is that you previously did something weird with DGA and that's why, but you haven't really told us what kind of error item you're getting.

[gentle glen]

@lament prairie it says Error Item with ???

[lament prairie]

Does it say DGA Error Item or just Error Item?

[gentle glen]

how can i tell if it is DGA

[pseudo jackal]

Oh hey, what mod is this and where can I find it? lol

if it still works on 1.5

I could swear there was a "better scarecrows" mod, but it would have been ages ago I guess

[gentle glen]

@lament prairie here the picuter of the error item

[lament prairie]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3232

[lament prairie]

yeah, I have no clue. it doesn't really seem like DGA either, DGA I think has specific error items it produces.

[gentle glen]

that was trying figure out if it that DGA mod

or could i get bad file

[crimson valve]

hello i have a bug since i updated the game from 1.5.5 to 1.5.6 and smapi to 3.13.2

Your SMAPI is outdated

SMAPI's up to 3.13.2 and you're on 3.10.1

[flint moth]

help me

again

there is no stardew valley expanded in that page you gave

this https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Mobile_Modding_Compatibility

The mobile compatible version of SVE is available on ModDrop, iirc

[lone ibex]

do you know how to update my vortex launcher to run the updated version instead?

[flint moth]

what version

can you say number

[naive drum]

Install it wihtout using vortex

Vortex lost the ability to install and update SMAPI back in December

[royal arrow]

Go to the ModDrop page, I guarantee you it says Mobile or Android. I don't know a version number

[flint moth]

ok

The one that says "Latest version that works on Android"

thanks

ohhhhhh ok that explains everything. thank you !

can i use the exact version of grandpa's farm

like the default version in nexusmods

i downloaded 1.13.16

also there is no winter grass version for mobile in this page any help?https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Mobile_Modding_Compatibility

[rugged sparrow]

I am using smapi version 3.7.6.1 on mobile but the mods needs smapi version 3.13.0 or later and this in on mobile

[royal arrow]

Unfortunately for mobile users, date checks are the reliable way to go. Get a version from before Dec 20, 2020, and that's more likely to work.

Same for .Raz; you need older versions of mods

[flint moth]

ok

[rugged sparrow]

K

[royal arrow]

Oops meant to say from BEFORE Dec 20, 2020

That's the day 1.5 released, so mods released on or after that date are less likely to work on mobile

[flint moth]

will 24december 2020 work for map toolkit

nvm

[sand iron]

anyone know if I'm able to use portrait mods and do multiplayer with people who don't have sampi installed? I tried and it either worked for a bit and then kicked me out and wouldn't let me back in or just wouldn't show the world

[novel panther]

You can, but it's a lot harder. I think you'd probably be able to replace the game files directly to use them, but that's risky and can lead to a lot of problems. I think you should either guide them through installing SMAPI (as without any mods it is identical to vanilla) or go without the portraits.

[proud hare]

anybody know what this means?

like i know its not like a major error or anything, im just curious

[sand iron]

ightt thanks!

[native dragon]

@sand iron See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide#Do_mods_work_in_multiplayer.3F for details on how mods work in multiplayer. :)

[robust bison]

in short, if you're only using portrait mods then the other players dont need them, and you can also use SMAPI

[gaunt gust]

exactly what it says in the message: no seperate copy of Antisocial installed, so SVE will used the one bundled with it

[proud hare]

Ah okay thanks! :>

yeah ad hoc may not be a term everyone understands, but it can be googled
