[lusty merlin]

it does

[wise oar]

yeah it does

[lusty merlin]

and it was

[wise oar]

it jsut confused me so much

[lament prairie]

I’m really not familiar enough with Gamepass to say anything other than “the enable mods button is very important”

[lusty merlin]

yeah

[tired brook]

Click your icon in the top-right, go to site preferences (not 'my profile' for some reason), and there'll be a "profile avatar" section on the first page.

[wise oar]

Do the mods need to be in any particular order when moving to the mod folder?

[lament prairie]

No

SMAPI also looks in subfolders, so you can organize them too

[dawn glen]

Hey, when my game launches its just a white screen and my pc says stardewmoddingapi doesn't reply
I've waitet for 30 minutes now but nothing happens. Can someone help?
This is my log:
https://smapi.io/log/cce4d9b0b56944e0bdc14a02e35ee1cf

[lament prairie]

Just don’t make the file names too long or windows throws a hissy fit

[wise oar]

awesome thanks

[short rock]

has anyone else had issues with unlimited people mod not workinf

[wise oar]

cuz I hated doing that with Skyrim on Xbox lol. I was forever messing up the load order

[lament prairie]

How many times have you relaunched? I’m wondering if this is the custom music problem

It rewrites all the music files at the start of loading, the first time it loads

And SVE has a ton of music

[dawn glen]

I didn't during the last 30 minutes

[lament prairie]

Okay try relaunching now

For whatever reason some of the people who have reported this kind of problem have it fixed for no reason when they try again (occasionally trying more than once?)

Unfortunately when things get fixed that way it’s deeply unclear why they happened or what to do to help

But maybe it will work?

[forest elk]

is there anyway with mods that i can go back and change to fruit bat cave? i accidentally clicked mushrooms

or like with cjb?

[lament prairie]

Yes, download blueberry’s mod

And that gives a console command

[forest elk]

do u have a link?

[lusty merlin]

manage

[lament prairie]

Read the description carefully https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9448

Everything is disabled by default so you can install, switch cave type, then uninstall

[lusty merlin]

general is just uninstall and dektop icon

[lament prairie]

(I believe, though check the config to be sure)

[forest elk]

tysm <3

[lament prairie]

I think aedenthorn might also have a mod that does this but I’d have to look it up

[lusty merlin]

no updates available for app either

ive been modding in mincecraft for years, even have my own packs and mod on curse, and never seen this before. although i cant code, something that frustrates me

[lament prairie]

This might be an issue with the game pass app itself. I’m not sure anyone except maybe Pathos or the devs would know further? Or someone who’s an expert on game pass, but none of us really are because SDV hasn’t been on game pass until very recently

[lusty merlin]

ok. i need to work out why i cant enable mods now, cos i should be able to

[tired brook]

It's pretty weird; I don't see anything like that with a fresh install, and I don't see any options for Xbox app that look relevant.

[dawn glen]

It sadly did not change :/

[tired brook]

@lusty merlin That "should play great on this PC" is apparently a preview feature. Are you using the beta version of the Xbox app, and does it happen with the non-beta version too if so?

[lusty merlin]

not that im aware of

how do i find out

[tired brook]

Can you click your icon in the top-right > Settings > About, and post a screenshot?

[obtuse meteor]

thx I got it

[lusty merlin]

gamepass

[gentle glen]

good afternoon

[lusty merlin]

looks like it is

i wish they would give u the option to opt into these things

[fiery portal]

just for reference here are the version numbers for non-preview

[lusty merlin]

although i would expect mods to work on i

[gentle glen]

well i still having figure out what the error item's that i have so just delete it and if pop again with the Staute's

[fiery portal]

preview is an opt-in thing

[lusty merlin]

urs has insider program written on it too

i mean each part of it

[fiery portal]

that's the prompt to get into it, I haven't done it

[lusty merlin]

it doesnt do anything

[gentle glen]

and is there way to fix my game to recognize lavnder

my json asset doesn't see it

[fiery portal]

I mean from what it looks like is you're in the insider program, and they've changed up some of the UI

[lusty merlin]

should still have the option somewhere though

ive left it but dont know how to get back to the current version

[half roost]

hey not rlly about using mods but i got a new pc, does anyone know how i can send my folder of mods from my old to my new pc?

[gentle glen]

well i need to figure what ineed to do make the adjustment

[fiery portal]

the "multiple" installs is sorta normal and sorta weird, all xbox game pass games are in the program files, but for modifiable games there's a separate location with less access permissions to allow modding, but that should all be on the same drive just in different folders, and one of the folders should be modifiablewindowsgames or something like that

[forest elk]

@lament prairie to get the fruit bat cave do i click "empty cave"?

[merry mural]

I downloaded the Zuzu City mod, along with all of the required mods but now it’s saying this? I’m a bit confused as to what that last part means as it wasn’t listed as a mod requirement?

[dusty spruce]

certainly does

[obtuse meteor]

you didnt dl the require mod?

[reef stag]

Compress your mod folder into a zipped file and email it to yourself.

[obtuse meteor]

@merry mural

[lusty merlin]

well i checked skyrim and the enable mods option is there, so for some reason stardew is broke

[half roost]

Alright ty, not the best with pc's so yeah xD

[lusty merlin]

now its there for stardew and i didnt even do anything. argh

[fiery portal]

the game pass app is super finicky, it may have taken a bit for everything to revert after you got out of the preview program

[shut violet]

yes, farm cave framework, it allows installing mods providing other options too

like bunny bringing eggs

[lusty merlin]

i cant enable it though

[shut violet]

i made a content pack adding option for finding some artifacts (rarely)

[lusty merlin]

its greyed out

[fiery portal]

have you restarted your computer since changing the app version? I find I have to do that to get xbox app "unstuck", not just restarting the app

[merry mural]

I guess I missed it by accident 😅, sorry about that,

Currently have COVID so haven’t been really focused lol

[lusty merlin]

no i havent. will try that

[late nebula]

I hope you feel better soon.

[lusty merlin]

nope, i can get into the "read this first" bit but the enable mods at the bottom of that is greyed out. it doesnt say why

skyrim lets me do it

the version hasnt reverted either

[naive drum]

Put your mods folder on an external drive or something. It's just the same as moving any other folder around between computers

[lusty merlin]

im giving up and going to bed. too burned out with it to concentrate

[fiery portal]

sorry about that, hopefully you have better luck tomorrow and the xbox app hasn't just screwed something up beyond recovery

[snow fox]

The Animal Shop Conditions config is null. Im not sure what that means but i cant seem to buy animals from marnie

[lusty merlin]

thanks everyone for your help

[steep pewter]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/393?tab=files would this mod work on mobile or is it too outdated?

[gaunt gust]

So...you willing to become the gamepass whisperer?

[fiery portal]

yeah I don't mind being pinged, but I can't claim to know everything, also sometimes it just does whatever it wants so 🤷‍♂️

[gaunt gust]

Honestly, Microsoft

[fiery portal]

I currently have to order my games alphabetically, cause uninstalled games may or may not leave the game list if you do custom order, for example

also custom order is a misnomer, it's just ordered by last played 🙃

[lament prairie]

Try cave.type mushroom or cave.type fruit?

As a console command

[loud linden]

is anyone good with goods here I have a problem if someone would like to help me please

[lament prairie]

😦 Is it printing things to the console while it loads?

[lament prairie]

!ask

[native dragon]

@loud linden Ask your question or describe your issue here, and someone will help if they can!

[lament prairie]

Also possibly

!log

[native dragon]

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

[loud linden]

Im having an problem with the PyTK

!log

[native dragon]

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

[forest elk]

where is the console?

[lament prairie]

The black window that comes up when you launch SMAPI

[naive drum]

its the black window that opens with the game

or white window depending on your settings

[naive drum]

the most common issue with PyTK is people not getting the latest version because it's not on Nexus - check the pins

[dawn glen]

Hey, I managed to fix it. Turns out it didn't have anything to do with the mods because I had the same problems when I tried to open it without them. Then after some googling I found out, that I had to delete the startup_preferences folder in %AppData%/StardewValley.
Now it seems to work. Thank you so much for your time and effort

[lament prairie]

Oh awesome! I'm glad it's working now

[lament prairie]

type help

then show me what it says

[forest elk]

it shows all the options for the mods and stuff

[lament prairie]

Okay but I want to know what are the options that blueberry's mod adds

[forest elk]

there doesnt appear to be any

[lament prairie]

Hm

!log

[native dragon]

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

[forest elk]

oh hold on i think i accidentally deleted the file

[upper moon]

can i have the site for the unofficial mods please

[forest elk]

let me

[gaunt gust]

!compat

[native dragon]

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

[upper moon]

thanks

[forest elk]

oh yep appears i did delete it

i mightve accidentally selected it instead of another mod

[lament prairie]

Alright um maybe put it back

[forest elk]

yep just did

[lament prairie]

When you get it back, you can just type cave.type (no options needed)

And that swaps the type

Whatever it used to be, now it's the opposite

[forest elk]

alright thank you

[split egret]

[C#/SMAPI] I'm stumped: my mod keeps building as "M1" (the actual folder name in the mods folder) even though I have updated it to "Farmtronics" in my manifest.json.

[lament prairie]

wrong channel?

[split egret]

dangit

so sorry

[gaunt gust]

wrong channel, and it's in the csproj

not the manifest

[proud hare]

just out of curiosity is it possible to make a texture mod take priority over another without actually coding?

[lament prairie]

Depends on what you mean by "actually coding"

The janky way is to rename the one you want to take priority as "zzzzModName"

where mod name is the original folder name

This won't always work, if there's a dependency already setting load order

The reliable way is to add a dependency to manifest.json

I wouldn't call that coding, but it does require you to adhere to the json format

!json there's a checker here you can use to make sure you get the format right

[native dragon]

JSON is a standard format for machine-readable text files, often used by Stardew Valley mods. If you need help with a JSON file, you can upload it to https://smapi.io/json, view an automatic validation summary on that page, and share the link with others.

[lament prairie]

Here's the wiki page on manifests, which has some things you can copy-paste into the manifest.json: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Modder_Guide/APIs/Manifest

[proud hare]

Thankfully I think I got lucky and the ones I wanted to take prio did I think. But I will keep this in mind for the future thank you!

[twilit pasture]

if a mod need to be updated, does downloading it again and deleting the old one work?

[lament prairie]

Yes

[fiery portal]

just make sure to save your config.json if there is one

the one in the mod's folder

[twilit pasture]

what is config.json

[lament prairie]

it's a file containing your settings for the mod

[fiery portal]

some mods you can change the options by editing that file

[lament prairie]

It gets automatically created when you launch the mod for the first time, if there isn't already one

[twilit pasture]

i dont see that in my mods folder?

[lament prairie]

Not all mods have a config

[twilit pasture]

oh ok so if i dont see it i cant just delete and reinstall?

[lament prairie]

It won't be in the mods folder overall, it would be in each mod's individual folder

Yeah

[twilit pasture]

oh ok thanks

[lusty tartan]

can i have a hand please?

https://smapi.io/log/8f393d8aeb95413c9f8b143b6151ea15

basically my coop's door will NOT open. like both myself and another player try to enter and it just makes the noise like youre going inside, but the sound is like layered ontop of itself so its just this horrendous popping noise like fireworks going off in rapidfire

and i thought it was the egg problem but this has happened twice already

last night i had to REBUILD a coop to fix it, and now the NEW coop is doing the exact same thing

and yes i did try to put a rug in front of the door

i literally have no idea whats going on and its really upsetting me

[naive drum]

Wow that lo0g is taking a long time to load

[lusty tartan]

it is a long log.... i am a nolifer 💀

[lament prairie]

my computer is sad

[chrome cosmos]

yea, its taking a while but until it loads

1. do you and your friend have the exact same mods (excluding visual stuff)
2. are either of you using XNB mods?

[naive drum]

Seasonal Sleeves appear to not be working

[lusty tartan]

yes, exact same, every single folder is the same including configuration wise. no xnbs

[naive drum]

and Stack Everything is upset

[lament prairie]

The errors are probably related to the coop

I see them saying "building"

In particular related to DoAction

[naive drum]

yeah im trying to find what's going on there

[lusty tartan]

should i reset those two mods?

[fathom iron]

for some reason the game makes my laptop run super slowly

[naive drum]

lots of "repeats [3-digit-number] times" in the coop related errors

and one instance of an error repeating over a thousand times

not surprising this log is so laggy...

[lament prairie]

Can you quickly try removing all of the CP mods and see if that resolves the coop? Don't save a day, just quickly load the save, then exit, then upload a log.

[lusty tartan]

i would say thats because i kept angrily clicking it ovvvver and over

[lament prairie]

Nah, it's looping while the game is open

There's no way you clicked it literally 1000 times

[naive drum]

!reset in case something's corrupted in the game folder

[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 :)

[lusty tartan]

i meant the coop door. like i was holding the key down for a solid 10 seconds

[naive drum]

yeah no way you clicked 1824 times in a minute

[lusty tartan]

let me check my cp mods

[lament prairie]

I am asking about the CP mods because a quick skim of the rest didn't turn up anything that jumps out at me, and CP mods are pretty safe to remove/put back, usually

[naive drum]

yeah

[chrome cosmos]

could it be auto animal doors doing this? i dont see any bug reports on their page but it could be a new issue?

[lament prairie]

Oh that sounds relevant! (I closed the log bc my computer was sad)

[lusty tartan]

that is a really good idea. does that mod also affect player doors? i can open and close the animal door but cant enter the coop

[chrome cosmos]

OH i didnt realize thats what you meant, i dont think it does but removing it might help to make sure it's not the issue

[lusty tartan]

ill give it a shot

[lament prairie]

If it affects the coop doors at all it could potentially be related, I think

[lusty tartan]

im also going to remove movement speed since i see a couple errors related to it

[fiery portal]

I know with auto gates, the gates can get stuck open or closed if I click on ones set to auto open

Might be similar

[fathom iron]

whenever i run the game it makes my laptop suuuper slow

[lament prairie]

How many mods do you have?

[fiery portal]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[lusty tartan]

also what type of laptop? i dont want to be that person but sometimes laptops arent fit to run games like stardew because of the amount of content it has, esp with mods added

[fiery portal]

lol I thought I'd open this to see how my computer handled opening it, and it opened fast but my CPU fan sped up audibly 🤣

[lusty tartan]

youre welcome 😅

[wise oar]

OK Help

I am still lost apparently

[lusty tartan]

bless my pc tbh... it truly puts up with so much of my bull

[fiery portal]

I'll say haha

[wise oar]

I downloaded the mods. unzipped them all into a folder, and dropped the folder into the Local Files folder of the game via Steam like I was told. And they aren

er aren't showing up in game?

at least, not that I see, how do I check?

[lament prairie]

Did you put it into the folder named "Mods"?

!log You can upload a log file and it will say what mods are installed

[native dragon]

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

[fiery portal]

how are you launching the game?

[wise oar]

let me check

and i'

[fiery portal]

did you change the launch arguments in steam?

[stiff meteor]

Hi I'm new to mods and also lost

[wise oar]

m launching game from desktop shortcut from steam

[lusty tartan]

ITS FIXED

[fiery portal]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

@stiff meteor 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

[lusty tartan]

i think the problem was seasonal sleeves

[fiery portal]

or do you have a specific issue?

[stiff meteor]

I just downloaded and put together smapi and my issue is that I can't fix my screen resolution after multiple attempts from the trouble shooting guide

[fathom iron]

i have like 23

[wise oar]

ok it wasn't in the mod folder on Steam, so I added the folder in there now

[naive drum]

did these attempts include deleting the startup preferences file?

[wise oar]

so, theoretically, it should work now yeah?

[fathom iron]

i have a dell inspiron 14 5000 2-in-1

[stiff meteor]

like it's made everything too large and every time I've tried to match the dpi settings it's not working?

[fathom iron]

idk where to find the specs

[stiff meteor]

where do i find and set that up cause the guide just says to go the compatibility settings?

[naive drum]

just to confirm: you have run the SMAPI installer and put the mods in the Mods folder that SMAPI created in the Stardew Valley folder?

[gaunt gust]

hit Windows, type "About Your PC", hit enter. take as screenshot of the page that comes up

[naive drum]

!startuppref

[lament prairie]

Well if one of them is SVE it might still be a lot in terms of being hard on your computer

[naive drum]

!startuppref

[native dragon]

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...

[wise oar]

yes @naive drum just put them in the mods folder now

[twilit pasture]

i just finished downloading the stardew valley expanded update, what should i do?

[fathom iron]

nah i dont have SVE

[wise oar]

I'd run SMAPI earlier lol

[gaunt gust]

replace

[twilit pasture]

ok thank you

[fathom iron]

also here are my specs:
Device name DESKTOP-2MHV5IT
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10510U CPU @ 1.80GHz 2.30 GHz

Product ID 00325-96607-84682-AAOEM
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Pen and touch Pen and touch support with 10 touch points

[wise oar]

let me go check if it works now @naive drum

[lusty tartan]

completely delete the sve files, dont just replace them. go into your folders and directly delete it

[shy orbit]

replace (but removing the old install first is safer, but it also removes configs for the mod)

[chrome cosmos]

!log would help to see which mods you have

[native dragon]

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

[twilit pasture]

ok thank you i'll do that

[stiff meteor]

ok wait im sorry im already confused?
where do i go to find app data?

[fiery portal]

you just type %appdata%, it's a shortcut to your appdata folder

[naive drum]

you can search %appdata% on your PC or turn on Show Hidden Files, go to your C drive, then your username, then AppData

(AppData is a hidden folder by default, because windows)

[short rock]

If anyone got the unlimited people @mod to work could they help me with it

[stiff meteor]

do i keep the spaces btw > and stardew valley

[naive drum]

the > is telling you "click this next"

[stiff meteor]

oh
im sorry im rlly code/computer illiterate and nervous to accidentally mess something up

[fiery portal]

it's good, no problem asking for clarification 🙂

[fiery portal]

did you get it to work?

[lusty tartan]

the problem was seasonal sleeves, the other potential mods all worked safely on their own when i tested them, but seasonal sleeves made it misbehave when i tried it

[stiff meteor]

ok so i'm finally into the stardew valley app data folder

how do i delete the startup prefs?

oh wait i see what i did i hopped a step
so once i delete this do I just go back to the dpi settings from before?

oh it worked! thanks so much

[wise oar]

[lament prairie]

Is TMXL being used for something? If not, I'd recommend uninstalling, it has been causing performance issues recently

[fathom iron]

yeah its being used for a mod

idr which one

[lament prairie]

Darn, alright

Oh it's for Swim

Nothing looks off to me in this log

[cinder dew]

starting over from an empty mod folder and a fresh install of Smapi, I'll let you guys know how it goes

[gaunt gust]

failed to seralize seems to be worrying

[lament prairie]

Nah that's just Swim being Swim

I played with Swim on one of my saves and it does that every time

[fathom iron]

also when it rains everything lags, even the cursor

[idle lark]

@lament prairie. Glad to see your on line. Thanks so much for all your help recently. All my mods are up and running. TY TY TY!

[gaunt gust]

gamepass?

[wise oar]

that's what i get when I try

and nope. Steam

[cinder dew]

am I missing anything?

[wise oar]

but I DID play on Gamepass prior. but I uninstalled that before I installed from Steam

[lament prairie]

You seem to be missing the default mods (Save Backup, Error Handler, and Console Commands)

[chrome cosmos]

are you married to anyone rn?

[cinder dew]

thanks for the heads up

[fathom iron]

nope

[cinder dew]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/435
is this the right backup save mod?

[wise oar]

@gaunt gust not using game pass

[lament prairie]

No, the mods I mentioned are installed when you install SMAPI. You can just reinstall SMAPI and they should reappear

[fluid basin]

https://smapi.io/log/763ef118d3b3455cbc2335ad9612b407 my log
whenever i start my modded world it says something about manifest.json not working and then i cant press any buttons
but it was working fine before i didnt change anything

[cinder dew]

ah ok, thank you for clarifiying

[lament prairie]

Your save appears to somehow be freaking out about Ridgeside being uninstalled. Did you uninstall it then reinstall or something?

Try deleting ridgeside and reinstalling maybe?

[fluid basin]

nope, i installed it and i loaded it and played a few days, went to install an extra npc and it starting dying

any suggestions for me btw?

Which extra NPC?

should i reinstall ridgeside then uninstall extra npc?

You seem to have removed Json Assets?

Try putting Json Assets back

[wise oar]

I'm not playing via Gamepass though?

[fluid basin]

says its there

[gaunt gust]

yeah, but you started with gamepass, maybe it's still there

[cinder dew]

I'm not missing anything else, am I?

[lament prairie]

Json Assets 1.10.2 because its DLL 'JsonAssets.dll' doesn't exist.

@gaunt gust nope same error message

odd

[lament prairie]

Kame, you could try navigating to that file by hand?

I can try yeah

how though?

Uhh unfortunately I use a Mac so I might have to google that

[wise oar]

k my internet is fast

[gaunt gust]

most mods are tiny so should not take very long

[wise oar]

should I uninstall and reinstall game?

[lament prairie]

Everything except SVE, DSV, and Ridgeside is basically instant for me

[fluid basin]

@lament prairie so i reinstalled jsonassets and now the original ridgeside is working fine but the extra npc isnt?

[lament prairie]

!log send the new log?

[native dragon]

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

[wise oar]

and do i need to enable something in the initial startup menu in teh game?

[fluid basin]

https://smapi.io/log/1354e59a2643496e8bb6bb11fd34e2cf

[short rock]

Has anyone else had issues with the u limited people mod?

[lament prairie]

You've messed up the folder hierarchy somehow, the error saying "constains files but none are manifest" is telling me you have a mod that isn't self-contained in a folder. Also you have two of a mod.

!compat also a few of your mods are outdated, you can find them by searching here

[native dragon]

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

[wise oar]

I think I'm just gonna give up for now. I'll come back to it later when I'm not stoned.

[short rock]

Do u think they will update it soon?

[lament prairie]

Yeah, this requires being a bit methodical, so it might be tricky in an um, altered state

[wise oar]

thanks for attempting to help though guys

and yeah lol.

[fluid basin]

im looking thru the mods but i dont see any doubles? and im. not totally sure what a mod that isn't self-contained in a folder means,

[lament prairie]

Can you screenshot your mods folder for me? And I might ask about some subfolders too

[lament prairie]

You can try this, just back up your save first (and it's a bit experimental): https://twitter.com/concernedape/status/1395243158460530689

[small torrent]

I have a question ^^

[cinder dew]

holy crap I got it to work finally

thanks for the help everyone

[small torrent]

Not really a mod question, but it could have to do with one, so asking here. I want to play Stardew on my desktop but in a small window. It only seems to let me use windowed in large mode instead of a smaller mode. Is there a mod or something I can add to be able to play on a tiny window?

[lament prairie]

Can you screenshot the [CP] June NPC folder?

[cinder dew]

I think that's a screen settings issue

[small torrent]

How would I fix that? >:

[fluid basin]

its assets > img > then this

[lament prairie]

Also the "Ridgeside Village" folder?

[cinder dew]

just run it in windowed mode and resize it to your liking

I think

unless it's not letting you do that

[small torrent]

I tried that ): it just snapped right back to the big size

[lament prairie]

Also the June NPC (some music) folder?

[gaunt gust]

fwiw, the game has a some issues with screen resizing, etc

[lament prairie]

No content.json or manifest.json?

[gaunt gust]

I've found that using PowerToys makes it like me more https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/

[wise oar]

So I think some of them may have worked? but not sure how to really check?

[fluid basin]

theres a [CP] Ridgeside Village and [STF] Ridgeside Village?

[fluid basin]

no thats all there is

[small torrent]

Hmm 'll try and install power toys ^^

if you were talking to me

haha

[lament prairie]

You might need to delete the June folders and redownload then.

[lament prairie]

Yeah, I'm a little worried about those two being outside of the folder that's just named "Ridgeside Village"

[fluid basin]

this is what the readme.txt says but i have no idea what it means

[lament prairie]

You seem to have like 1/3 of ridgeside outside of the ridgeside folder somehow

[fluid basin]

???????? i installed ridgeside, extracted, then moved all to my mods folder?? and installed the required mods??

[lament prairie]

Here's the parts of your Mods folder I'm looking at

The question mark is probably an XNB mod

The blue stuff is June

The red stuff circled is bits of Ridgeside

The red arrow is (I think) the main ridgeside folder

[wise oar]

so I think where my confusion is lying, is: Should I just be able to start the game with the mods in the Mod Folder that SMAPI put in my Steam game, and the mods will be started? Or do I somehow need to enable them somewhere?

[fluid basin]

yeah the mods will start normally

so should i drag [CP] and [STF] ridgeside to the main one?

[naive drum]

Make sure SMAPI is launching with the game

You may need to set your launch options

[wise oar]

is there a way to like, see if they are? cuz I didn't do any aesthetic mods, except in villager homes

How do I do that @naive drum ?

[lament prairie]

Try just deleting them? I think there's good copies in the Ridgeside folder that are loading properly.

[naive drum]

!gettingstarted has some instructions

[native dragon]

[naive drum]

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

thanks for the plant fact!

[wise oar]

lol thanks

[fluid basin]

@lament prairie heres whats in the june (some music) folder

the readme is just like. an about the npc

[lament prairie]

Okay, that looks right... Can you delete the two June things circled in blue that are in your main folder?

[fluid basin]

okay

should i try n start up again?

[lament prairie]

Yep!!

And send a log if it didn't work again

[wise oar]

OK I think I've figured it out...

SMAPI wasn't enabled in Steam. so trying that now

[lament prairie]

Also, if June still doesn't work, try deleting redownloading. I just downloaded and it looks like it should work to me. (I am about to get on a plane so wanted to leave advice)

[gaunt gust]

have a safe flight!

[lament prairie]

If it doesn't load, I think the thing I underlined in red in your manifest.json is to blame, either this one or the one in the CP subfolder

Your error seems to indicate somehow the game believes the SMAPI and CP components are the same mod

Notice the slight difference here

[wise oar]

it worked

my stoned ass didn'

didn't read all the instructions when installing smapi

so forgot to put the smapi file location in on steam

my husband said he's not surprised. I always skip parts of directions

thanks for all of your help everyone!

[naive drum]

it happens!

[frozen forge]

Is there a reason that adding more than a certain number of mods causes lag? Like, is it a memory or resource issue? And is there a way to resolve that?

[azure seal]

Is there a way to reset the luck on a save file? The skip fishing minigame mod update seemed to lock it at 100 and now i cant find normal floors in skull cavern even after rolling back to the previous version of the mod

[wheat pine]

You need to edit the save

[dawn heron]

First set of mods 😄 Honestly only thing I feel like I need right now is a dark mode for the menu UI lol

[wheat pine]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Edit_a_save

[royal kindle]

man I'm glad I picked a different fishing mod when I started, lmao

[wheat pine]

yea, that's a pretty impressive bug on their part, lol

Look for "<luckLevel>100</luckLevel>" in your save and change it to 0 if you have no luck increasing items

[lament prairie]

Probably both? Hard to say. It’s a tricky problem

[gaunt gust]

memory, cpu, hd, hard to tell

[azure seal]

Thanks, I didnt realize that they screwed it up and i even rolled back the mod to version 0.3 but i hadnt done anything that was luck related (I was spending most of the days building/friending) and now i cant just roll back to a backup

So i didnt realize it had edited the savegame untill it was too late

[wheat pine]

50+ floors of treasure chests was fun though

[azure seal]

What do i need to set that value too

[frozen forge]

ahh

[azure seal]

I dont need a save editor, i can read XML In notepad

[royal kindle]

make sure you don't have any luck changing effects happening (rings or food) and set it to 0

[azure seal]

Thanks

That is an impressive Bug

[royal kindle]

indeed

[kindred shore]

Hey for some reason windowed boarderless mode isn’t working, no matter what I do I can’t go to another window while stardew is open

[azure seal]

How do you accidentally code the game to edit the savegame to give 100 luck XD

[gaunt gust]

probably threw it in to check something and forgot to take it out

[wise oar]

OK, so it seems a few mods aren't working, can I have you look over my SMAPI thingy now please?

for the unofficial pytk and txml, and for ui info suite 2

[wise oar]

er did i do it wrong?

I' m just trying to figure out how to tell which mods aren't working, the pinned thingy helps?

[gaunt gust]

there's an explanation of commonly asked update questions in the pinned, that's all

[lament prairie]

Pins has more info on some specific mods that are on unofficial updates or harder than usual to download

[wise oar]

oooh ok

thank you

[lament prairie]

Which are the ones you have problems with

[wise oar]

yeah it looks like the anime face one i tried to download for npcs isn't working, but I think i may have accidentalyl downloaded 2, so it's confused

and is there a way to run smapi and let it tell me which needs updates?

or another file to work?

[lament prairie]

The log file website tells you

Right at the top

Also magenta text in the actual console window

(At least It’s magenta for me) but the website has links

[wise oar]

I see it tank tyo

er thank you

[lament prairie]

!compat also you can search here for the latest versions

[native dragon]

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

[wise oar]

so looks like the Content Patcher by Pathos Child has 2 errors

so i'

gah

i'm reading it all now and trying to update

[gaunt gust]

(Coii's Girls Sets Pack and Coii's Hair Sets Pack)

you should pick one

[wise oar]

ok

and it says UI iNfo Suite needs to be updated, but I've downloaded the latest version on Nexus, and the link it gives in SMAPI doesn't work

actually may have found it here: https://github.com/Annosz/UIInfoSuite2/releases

[vivid bloom]

is there a mod that makes it easier to see when tall crops are finished growing? i've got a greenhouse full of ancient fruit and they're not all on the same schedule yet so it's really hard for me to easily see which ones are finished and which ones aren't

i know i can just hover the cursor over to see the + but that's kind of a chore

[alpine hazel]

Hey! not sure why but mods dont work for me for some reason when ever i put this code "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command% it says missing exucutable but as soon as i take it off it works fine and when i put smapi into my folder i dont have a mods folder for sdv

[gaunt gust]

is stardew installed to the usual C location or did you move it?

what do you get if you do that?

[fluid crest]

The sprites for trees aren't being displayed correctly in Lookup Anything 🤔

[shadow trench]

how do I delete all of the mods I downloaded? (smapi included)

i've royally messed up the modding process and need to start from scratch i think

[fringe forge]

are you sure? you can delete your stardew valley folder (your saves are saved somewhere else) and then tell steam to verify the integrity of the game

[shadow trench]

what do you mean by that?

[fringe forge]

but you could also start with simply disabling all mods by renaming the mods folder

[shadow trench]

how do i do that?

[fringe forge]

one moment, screenshot time

[shadow trench]

also would they still take up a ton of space on my computer?

[fringe forge]

do you have stardew valley on steam?

or do you have it on gamepass or epic or something else?

[shadow trench]

i have it on steam

[fringe forge]

okay

[fringe forge]

that

[shadow trench]

ohhh

this is what shows up when i open that

[fringe forge]

yes

you have fucked up a lot 😄

but its okay, we can fix that

[shadow trench]

I know 😭

[shadow trench]

i also redownloaded smapi like 4 times 😭
i'm a mess

do you have a screenshot for verify game integrity too?

[fringe forge]

your game is missing

thats the issue

[gaunt gust]

first link

[fringe forge]

so lets reset everything and get it working 🙂

[shadow trench]

where would i find that?

[fringe forge]

atravita just linked you

[gaunt gust]

Golden was asking me if I had instructions handy, lol 😛

[wise oar]

ok last one I can't seeem to get to work is the NPC portraits

[fringe forge]

yeah, that question was for @gaunt gust , not you 😄

[untold coral]

Ew

Solution: don't use portraits

[shadow trench]

It said the files failed to validate and will be reacquired

[gaunt gust]

I think that one might depend on a mod no longer available. You may have to find another one.

[fringe forge]

perfect

wait a moment for steam to download them and then the base game should be working again

[shadow trench]

Ugh tysm 😭😭 🫂

[fringe forge]

that is the exact message we wanted 🙂

[untold coral]

Ur save is prolly messed up tho right?

I only use android so idk

[fringe forge]

don't be like that 🙈

[shadow trench]

I didn't even check

[fringe forge]

did you play with mods for a time?

[shadow trench]

No

[fringe forge]

then they are fine

[shadow trench]

Okay it's re-download now

[fringe forge]

they never got touched

they are somewhere else

[wise oar]

yeah fiddling around now

[restive urchin]

hey, I'm new to modding and I just installed everything to use SVE and when I booted up the game it's super zoomed in

[gaunt gust]

!startuppref

[untold coral]

I can basically grope my save files on android

[native dragon]

@restive urchin 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...

[shadow trench]

So do I need to do anything to take care of all the mods I downloaded and then improperly deleted?

[untold coral]

I figured out on my own I can save the EMERGENCY SAVE file and if I mess up I can go back to that point of the day if I just paste that file back and close the app, reopen and restore progress

[fringe forge]

you actually... didn't really have any mods in the proper folder. your entire game and the mods folder was missing. I don't know if they still are somewhere else on your pc because I don't know how you got to that point

[edgy parrot]

[gaunt gust]

if you've already started the process, start over. Entirely over

[fringe forge]

if you want to continue playing without mods you don't need to do anything else. you can simply start the game and continue playing. if you wanna try to install smapi correctly this time, you can try again with a tutorial, but its okay if you don't want to

[shadow trench]

Ohhh okay
What do I do about all of these though?

Some of them have stuff in them and some of them don't

[untold coral]

I got the same message when I used the bad boy version of stardew

Access denied

I then proceeded to purchase the good boy version

[gaunt gust]

those are just in your downloads folder, you can delete that if you want

[untold coral]

Now I'm a good boy

[restive urchin]

thank you so much, it worked

[shadow trench]

Oh okay cool

Thank y'all so much for the help!! I think I'll wait a while before I try modding again lol

[untold coral]

Ye had best think twice before straying too far from yer ship in the future

[edgy parrot]

thank you so much!

like atravita said, those mods can all be deleted, they don't do anything there (be sure to not accidentally delete non-SV mod files that you wanted to keep 🙂 )

Ok, any suggestions for a SMAPI version villager portrait mod? The one I tried to use is apparently not compatible with SMAPI

checking the SMAPI subreddit now

Are you looking for something high res? DCBurger and OrangePie are making some great portraits in similar styles

I'm using them for my husbando hunt run

[proud hare]

which ones do i keep?

[fluid crest]

... the new ones

the files look identical anyways

all the same size

[proud hare]

okay lol. I was updating sve and didn't wanna f anything up

[fluid crest]

You're supposed to delete a mod before updating it btw

[wise oar]

yeah I am trying these: https://www.reddit.com/r/SMAPI/comments/pps5lh/could_someone_pls_link_me_these_portrait_mods_ive/ now

[proud hare]

I did

cuz I am a weeb and love me some anime boys

[fluid crest]

Then why are there files to overwrite?

[proud hare]

Idk honestly, I was confused

its just these 8

[fluid crest]

question: if I accidentally put a mod file in the mod folder twice, does it cause any issues?

[gaunt gust]

Smapi will.complain and load neither

ok thanks. So i'll have to look

cuz some of the hair files aren't showing up, so that may be why?

[gaunt gust]

Log will say

[proud hare]

I still got the same error after updating

hold on lemme log it

https://smapi.io/log/ed93bb9ffccf40849fa632f5ac461efc

It happens when I try and lookup something inside a lookup window. These little links.

[gaunt gust]

Odd. Hum

Does it happen on a fresh save with just lookup anything and error handler?

[proud hare]

im not sure how to do that without screwing everything up lol.

[wise oar]

ok help. https://smapi.io/log/310add4294ce4cd087947a51ef495ab0 I am stuck

some of these aren't working, and I downloaded the ones it said, and I thought I put them into my Mod folder?

[gaunt gust]

Hum. Let me take a look myself at some point

Although you should probably take your log and report it to the lookup anything Nexus page

[proud hare]

Okay! It's not a big deal i just got scared with all the errors lol

will do!

[wise oar]

like, I downloaded the alt version of PyTk, but it's not reading it?

[gaunt gust]

you do need to remove the previous version first, maybe

[wise oar]

K that may have been it...

[fringe forge]

the icon is missing, is the error trying to access the image?

[wise oar]

hmm. it just shows as PyTk when I have it in the folder, and the older one isn't in there

[proud hare]

I wouldn't know. I'm still only in year 1 of coding and all I know is C++

and very little of it too

[shut wind]

how do u mod stardew valley on steam

[proud hare]

!smapi

[native dragon]

SMAPI (https://smapi.io/) is the mod loader for Stardew Valley. It loads mods into the game, provides APIs for mods to use, intercepts errors, and backs up your save files automatically.

[proud hare]

You need that first

[shut wind]

does it work on steam

[gaunt gust]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

@shut wind 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

that was more of a "do you think you have mods that mess with sprites?". I know you posted your mod list, but I haven't checked it yet

[gaunt gust]

yup, and you can still get achievements!

[shut wind]

lessgo thx

[fringe forge]

(if you start it with steam by following the instructions)

[proud hare]

sprites as in npc sprites? yes.

[gaunt gust]

you have dga with no packs for it, try getting rid of dga first....

[wise oar]

yeah it works on Steam. I'm working with it now

wrong order isn't it?

or does smapi not touch a single base game file? I never checked

on windows at least

[fringe forge]

thats not the norm for modloaders

they're not loaded, it seems like you need to pick one or the other

ah ok thank you

i liek the one you linked better, so may just use it

ok here goes trying to load again

OK, SMAPI is telling me that I CAN update some Mods, does that mean that I NEED to?

no, but it's always a good idea to update your mods

most of the time it's a good idea to update your mods

if one of them is JA Farmer to Florist, don't update it!

2. UI Info Suite does not work in 1.5.5+. Use UI Info Suite 2, which can be found here: https://github.com/Annosz/UIInfoSuite2/releases. Make sure not to download the source code.
3. NPC Adventures was broken, but is now fixed for 1.5.5+! Get the latest from Nexus.
4. Custom Music has an unofficial update linked here: https://smapi.io/mods/#Custom_Music (4th zip file on forum post) If you're having issues with music starting to play and then stopping, try this update.
5. Stardew Valley Expanded 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)

https://smapi.io/log/07637e1c2c404e5382fc10e459b19a51 down to only a few errors now

OK I did load those

can you check my smapi thing please? it shows them doesn't it?

[gaunt gust]

you need to get the unofficial tmxl from the link above

!compat and then the unofficial pelicanfiber from smapi.io/mods

[native dragon]

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

[gaunt gust]

remove the mobile phone addon to get glam

[wise oar]

I did download it from there though?

[gaunt gust]

and make sure you only have one copy of stack anything

[wise oar]

and the one from Nexus I deleted

[gaunt gust]

you did it for pytk, but apparently not tmxl yet

[wise oar]

ahhh ok

also, the Stack Everyhthing, it's not letting me delete it from the Steam mod folder?

[gaunt gust]

?

[wise oar]

nm

it

it deleted them

just gave me an error before it did it

lmao

[late nebula]

He definitely is

[gaunt gust]

nexus is in england

[wise oar]

lol

also. just donated $5 to ya Pathos! Thanks for the awesome mods!

saw the option, got paid for art recently, so figured, why not?

[tired brook]

Thanks a lot!

[sick wedge]

can you only do mods on pc?

[robust bison]

PC and android

[wise oar]

You're welcome future dude! lol. thanks for all of your great mods. keep up the good work!

[brisk elk]

OK probably silly question, but how do I get clothing for Fashion Sense? The only thing in my assets folder is the hand mirror, but no clothing to choose from. Thanks for any help.

[robust bison]

you need to download fashion sense content packs from nexus

[scarlet spoke]

Aside from the dedicated "Skip Intro Mod" are there any other mods, such as CJB Cheats, that allow you to skip the intro by pressing exit?

[wise oar]

glad you asked this, cuz I totally would have ended up asking too lol

[lament prairie]

I vaguely thought UI info suite 2 did

[scarlet spoke]

definitely plausible

no idea why the Youtuber I'm watching would recommend both in the same video

redundancy and all

[wise oar]

er how would one find those content packs? are they on the Fashion Sense Nexus page?

[scarlet spoke]

also speaking of UI Info Suite 2

what happens if you have that and NPC Map Locations or that and XP Bars (SpaceChase)

[gaunt gust]

you can turn off ui info suite's npc map feature

(I think you can turn off the xp bars too but I prefer ui info suite's xp bars)

[scarlet spoke]

oh yeah indiv features are toggleable

[wise oar]

only content pack I can find for Fashion Sense is a wing one?

[sly wigeon]

I have a question about Stardew Valley Expanded (probably gonna have to get in line, but I'm very confused). This is my first time downloading it, my game version is 1.5.6, and both the nexus AND the unofficial PyTk and TXML are not loading, so SVE won't load either. Thoughts?

[naive drum]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[sly wigeon]

Yes, one moment

[naive drum]

if you have both versions of pyTK and TMXL at once neither will be loaded

[wise oar]

@naive drum sorry to bug you, but do you know where the Fashion Sense Content Packs can be found on Nexus? When I search Fashion Sense, I don't find anything

[naive drum]

There's not that many yet because it's new - most clothing mods are done via JsonAssets - but on Fashion Sense's page, under Requirements, the second section is "Mods requiring this file"

[wise oar]

thank yoou!

and I have the JSon one too, so I can look on it's page as well?

and wait, I don't see a requirements option on Nexus

[naive drum]

here's Forage of Ferngill's requirements dropdown tab

[wise oar]

where do I click to access that?

[naive drum]

and here's DGA's

it's in the Descriptions page, you click on the thing that says Requirements

[wise oar]

ok thank you!

how does one get all these cute kitties in chairs?! v

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10236?tab=images

[sly wigeon]

So apparently I just had to do a clean reinstall. Everything looks to be in order. All I had to do was JOIN the discord lolol

Thanks for the good juju I guess

[wise oar]

lol yay!

ok last question I think

the phone mod uses Get Glam for the dressing up, so will the phone mod still work, just without dressing up, if I don't use Get Glam?

[sly wigeon]

Now follow up question about another mod: A portrait mod is showing in the log as empty, even though it definitely isn't

Any idea about that

[naive drum]

yep

[wise oar]

I had that issue earlier too, no idea on that

which one is it Citizen?

[dense sorrel]

Hello anyone having the issue of loading a long time now with mods on stardew. It never happen before but mine is taking a long time when i put in the stardew expanded

it usually loads fast but now it takes a few mins

[sly wigeon]

It is the High def for Adarin's Girl mod >.>

[dense sorrel]

okay my stardew is not working anymore keeps freezing up on coop screen

it was working fine yesterday

[sly wigeon]

Let me try something Kame

[dense sorrel]

anyone have a solution

[scarlet spoke]

Try verifying integrity of game cache

[dense sorrel]

will do thanks

[scarlet spoke]

np

[wise oar]

er I am not the person to look to for answers lol. I'm a total newb and also stoned

[dense sorrel]

did the mods always load the game a long time because before it used to load real fast but now i have to wait a couple mins

[sly wigeon]

Fair lol. I think I got it though

[scarlet spoke]

it takes a sec with mods, but a few mins is suspect

[dense sorrel]

thats what i thought what shouuld i do

[gaunt gust]

A few minutes with pytk is normal

[scarlet spoke]

oh welp

[gaunt gust]

(Has to do with pytk reapplying its patches)

[dense sorrel]

@scarlet spoke it crashed on me again it keeps freezing when i press coop

[scarlet spoke]

sorry, not really sure what to do in that case

[dense sorrel]

so its normal with the stardew expanded

[gaunt gust]

Yes

[dense sorrel]

ok because before it took a few seconds

[gaunt gust]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[dense sorrel]

uhm sure what do you mean by log

[gaunt gust]

Smapi.keeps a log.of everything it does

Looking through that log is the best way to start debugging

[wise oar]

yup! it

it's helped me a lot

[dense sorrel]

like this?

[wise oar]

you can jsut link the url

it'll let others look at the page

[iron plank]

Hey, my game soft locks (I think that's what it's called, it doesn't crash it just can't load and I have to restart) when I try to go to the boarding house/buffalo ranch. I don't think I've added any new mods since last time I went there. I have- sort of an unreasonable number of mods. But if anyone would be willing to look at my smapi log and help me figure out why/if it's fixable I would be so grateful https://smapi.io/log/73692e8d7b034e34b9dbfeb9be64c19f

[dense sorrel]

https://smapi.io/log/31141ee7519e474d8764f140f9c9cb4a

[scarlet spoke]

(apologies if wrong channel) but do you guys prefer the Data Layers mod or the one in UI Info Suite 2

[iron plank]

They both do sort of different things. I use both.

[dense sorrel]

thanks

[lament prairie]

There's definitely an error here, but I can't tell where it's coming from

**Sorry I replied to the wrong person!!!

[stiff moon]

hello! im trying to download smapi to try and use mods but i get this. does anyone know a solution to this?

[lament prairie]

I can't tell where the error is coming from, but its definitely an error

[lament prairie]

Okay, it looks like you haven't tried to load a save here.

[iron plank]

It seems like SVE wants you to have this mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5371 it's not a requirement, but I see smapi is wanting to use it and is having to debug. I would also update your mods that can be updated and see if that resolves your issue

[lament prairie]

It's actually okay

[dense sorrel]

thanks

[lament prairie]

I think it's bundled with SVE

[iron plank]

Is my save file not corrupted at least? If my save file was corrupted it would just not load the game right?

[lament prairie]

That would be my guess as well

It also doesn't say anything about XML, so that's good (XML usually means save corruption)

[iron plank]

Huh. I wonder why it's not loading then? I would listen to Elizabeth over me fyi, I'm just guessing.

[lament prairie]

Your log looks fine, but with SVE often the first time loading takes longer because Custom Music is doing conversions

[iron plank]

Okay good! It seems to work besides when I want to go to the boarding house so I guess I just won't do that for now. I know this is a risk I take running 300+ mods but I could go there when I was playing yesterday! -shrug-

[lament prairie]

You might want to update Stardew Hack specifically. Iirc it can cause abnormally long load times?

[dense sorrel]

ok. but it works and loads fast when i take out stardew expanded

[lament prairie]

Well that's not terribly surprising, SVE is very big

[dense sorrel]

i dont know if its stardew expanded but thanks for the advice

[iron plank]

Do you know if you have a 32 bit processor or a 64 bit processor? and how much ram you have?

[lament prairie]

I think 4 minutes might be a typical load time for a SVE save

32-bit can't run SDV except compat so it has to be 64 bit

(compat branch can't use mods)

[iron plank]

Really? I was running it on my old laptop, but that was a year ago so maybe it's changed. It DID take about 15 minutes to load the game though.

[dense sorrel]

weird 4 months ago i loaded fast

and now it takes 2 min to load

[iron plank]

Oh wait no, I was running SV fine, it was SVE that took 15 minutes to load. I guess I'm just confused

[dense sorrel]

thats weird four months ago mine loaded in seconds on expanded

now it takes a 2 min

[iron plank]

that was running it on a 10 year old laptop

but yeah if the only problem you're having is that it take a few minutes to load with large mod files I don't think there's a bug. You might have less free space on your computer now which could cause it load more slowly.

[dense sorrel]

you might be right

[lament prairie]

SVE relies on PyTK through TMXL

[dense sorrel]

but its happening to my other two friends

[lament prairie]

PyTK and TMXL have both been having issues

They are sort of not being maintained

The mod author is MIA and they're on unofficial updates

Thus, problems

[dense sorrel]

@iron plank @lament prairie thanls for the help

[dense sorrel]

oh boy no wonder it hasnt been updated

[iron plank]

Yeah hopefully everything is good for him and it's just holiday seeing family stuff.

[scarlet spoke]

(I know I'm asking a lot of questions lately), but does UI 2 give any useful info for gift preferences? I couldn't find that from mouse hovering, may have to use Lookup Anything

[iron plank]

That's correct, you'd need look up anything for that information.

Or at least if it's in UI 2 I don't know where to find it.

[scarlet spoke]

I was able to find the show more info on mouse hover setting, but it just shows sell price

[iron plank]

Yeah think you need lookup anything to get that in game.

[fallow dock]

hii !! just had a question about the natural colour reshade. it hasn't been working for me (i've tried many different things, but to no avail). i followed the proper instructions and unzipped the folder in the stardew valley folder and not the mods folder, but when i open the launcher, this error message shows up: "The Stardew Valley executables are missing, a complete reinstallation is necessary. Place the content of "NaturalColor.zip" directly at the root of the game." which is really strange because i did unzip it directly at the root of the game and now im questioning if i'm actually doing it correctly... if anyone can help that would be highly appreciated!

[iron plank]

did you have it installed before or is this your first installation?

[fallow dock]

this is my first installation!

i have no idea whats going wrong, i saw that a few other people have this problem as well but i am unable to pinpoint why :(

[iron plank]

I don't have this mod myself, but I do see that it mentions it can fail to install. You've probably tried deleting and reinstalling it?

Which hat mod?

[fallow dock]

yes, i have tried a lot of troubleshooting, i just find it weird because others seem to have no problem installing it

however this is just based on the posts on the nexus forum

[iron plank]

It is weird. You have stardew 1.5?

[fallow dock]

yes, i have the newly updated version

[lament prairie]

!xnb

[native dragon]

@shy berry 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).

[fallow dock]

perhaps it's not compatible with that version ?? but i'm just speculating

[lament prairie]

But also, hats are usually an object you find in-game

They don't appear on character creation

You have to like pick one up and put it in the hat slot

I have no idea how the hell xnb hat mods work, but normally hat mods either make a new hat object (with Json Assets) or they recolor existing hats (with Content Patcher)

[fallow dock]

^ if you have replaced your hats then maybe check the item spawner

[lament prairie]

You can buy some hats from Hat Mouse, who lives on an island in the south of the forest

[iron plank]

do you have windows?

[fallow dock]

yes i do!

[lament prairie]

Some hats are unlocked by achievements, some hats are special (only from combat), and some hats are rewards

CJB Item Spawner, it's a mod

[fallow dock]

it is just an inventory of all the items in the game

i couldnt find one of my shoe mods but it appeared when i looked through the item spawner

[lament prairie]

Yeah, if a mod doesn't add a way to get the items you may need to use the item spawner

But an xnb mod is probably(????) a replacer(???)

The question marks are because xnb mods are spooky scary and I don't know much about them other than that they can break things

[fallow dock]

if you want to retrieve your original files then you can verify the integrity of your files through steam

assuming you have that version

[iron plank]

@fallow dock and you've tried installing both with the injection method and with the [1] install natural color option?

once you restore you back up you can try adding fashion sense and some content packs for it. then you can but the mirror from pierre's shop and it should give you access to the content packs

[fallow dock]

by injection, do you mean launching the game through the reshade launcher?

i think the problem is i can't get to the install natural color option

[iron plank]

No, by injection method I mean unzipping it at the root of the game and then just launching stardew valley

[fallow dock]

ah i don't think i have

[iron plank]

it says that with 1.5 and higher it lets you install via injection method which is just launching stardew. So i don't know if it will work but I'd do a complete uninstallation of the mod, redownload it and then just launch the game? -fingers crossed-

[fallow dock]

i'm attempting right now!! hopefully it does work

[iron plank]

wait are you even supposed to unzip it? the instruction don't mention unzipping it. is there a video somewhere for this mod?

[fallow dock]

mm well you have to unzip the folder to reach the launcher so i just assumed that you had to unzip it, but perhaps maybe you dont ?

[fallow dock]

i also don't think this worked, but i appreciate you trying to help :)

[iron plank]

wait, is this an xnb mod too?

i don't know i've only ever done smapi

[fallow dock]

i think this is just a reshade

[iron plank]

have you seen this mod? https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10540

it seems to look similar? and goes in the mod folder

[fallow dock]

oh maybe i'll use that instead!

i was hoping to use natural color since it gives more of a pinky flush to the game, but i think this would be a nice alternative! thank you

[iron plank]

Yeah I would desat it to like 40. but idk there's also like emy's (sp?) recolors and then there are fairy farm buildings have you seen those? changes more than just the shade but you def get a pink flush

[fallow dock]

ahh i'll definitely check those out then :) again, i appreciate the help very much!

[lament prairie]

reshades aren't XNB afaik but they also aren't SMAPI mods, they're something weirder that I don't udnerstand

[fallow dock]

yeah it's quite confusing and unlike any of the mods i have, i usually don't use them but i know that they're very popular so i just wanted to try them out

[silent forge]

I downloaded stardew expanded and all of the required mods to use and smapi runs them all but when I start a save the map and everything is still the same

[wise oar]

ggrrrrr all mods but the faces thing worked for npcs

so fyi, the webtoon/korean artwork one doesn't work

[frozen forge]

Is there a way to determine what mod is causing a tile conflict?

For example, in this picture, is there a way to find out what's causing that exactly?

[silk shoal]

hi

I asked for help with portrait mode in the evening

but it's not happening now what could be the trouble

[frozen forge]

pardon?

[silk shoal]

ne

[silk shoal]

[CP] Seasonal Cute Characters

[frozen forge]

I have literally no idea what you're talking about, you will have to repeat the original question.

[silk shoal]

I set up portrait mode in the evening

It was ringing in the evening, but it's not working now.

[lament prairie]

You can do a patch summary and see which content patcher mods are editing that map, but fair warning it can be a little tedious to sift through all the mods if you have a lot.

[frozen forge]

Could you link me a guide or something on how to do that?

[lament prairie]

!log You're probably missing some of the dependencies, in particular check pins for more information on PyTK and TMXL

[native dragon]

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

[silk shoal]

Are you talking to me?

[frozen forge]

umm... no....

I have no idea what a Patch Summary is....

[lament prairie]

Here's the documentation: https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/develop/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide.md#patch-commands You'll have to isolate which file is being editing (is this... the Mountain map?) and then search through the results from running patch summary in your log for things that edit that file

So it requires a little familiarity with the content files as well

[frozen forge]

ah, ok. I'll look into it, thank you ^^

[lament prairie]

This is also assuming it's a Content Patcher mod editing that area

It could also be a TMXL mod

[frozen forge]

ahh

[lament prairie]

You probably should check that before jumping down the rabbit hole—try quickly removing all TMXL mods for a sec to see if it goes away

If it does go away, then it's one of the TMXL mods

If you give me your log and a precise description of where on the map this is occuring, I can also take a guess as to which mods might cause it

(My guess will only be mediocre, as I don't personally play with tons of these kinds of mods, but certainly better than random guessing)

[frozen forge]

this should show coordinates, does that help at all?

[robust bison]

!patchsummary

[native dragon]

@frozen forge 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.

I'm so glad I'm not tech support ~~ I have no patience

[silk shoal]

content patcher there is also

[lament prairie]

What farm type do you have? You seem to have two different farm map replacers for different farm types

[frozen forge]

I should have a farm replacer for each of the different maps, is that not allowed?

[silk shoal]

@robust bison

[lament prairie]

It's allowed, it's just that the ones for the farm types you're not current playing aren't relevant so I can ignore them

[frozen forge]

oh ok

hang on, just a second

[lament prairie]

I think you might be using the forest farm, if that helps

[frozen forge]

I am, and the mod for that is Blackberry Fields

[lament prairie]

Okay, thanks! I'm looking through the log

It could be Medieval Buildings

It could be SVE(probably? god that mod's patch is long)

[frozen forge]

XD

[lament prairie]

Oh nvm not SVE

Those conditions don't match

If it's a CP mod, it's Medieval Buildings

Otherwise it's a TMXL mod probably

[frozen forge]

PS. These should be my farm replacers,

Blackberry Fields - Forest (current)
Cliffside Falls - Hilltop
Immersive Farm 2 - Standard
Immersive Farm 4 - Beach
Neat and Tidy Garden - Wilderness
Solo Four Corners - Four Corners
Ultimate Farm - Riverland
Waterfall Forest - Custom type

[lament prairie]

Things that stick out to me from TMXL:
Immersive Farm 4 Red Shed 2.4.0
Ultimate Farm TMXL 1.2.0

These shouldn't affect your current map, but it's possible they do it by accident, and I don't think TMXL has built-in ways to check.

In particular the shed might be not the farm as well, so maybe it's an add-on in the middle of the map?

[frozen forge]

ok, I'll just remove the replacer bits that I'm not using I guess.

[lament prairie]

Other CP mods that really shouldn't be the issue but I guess they could??
[CP] Improved Pet Area:
[CP] Water Filled Gorge 1.1.4-unofficial.1-minervamaga
Ace Expanded Greenhouses 1.3.6
Ace's Simple Sheds 2.1.6

ok my eyes glazed over around L alphabetically

Things might load faster if you remove the types you're not using, though I can't say for sure—it depends on whether they're holding off on loading when they detect the wrong farm type

[frozen forge]

lol, I'm sorry, but thank you for helping

[lament prairie]

Haha, no worries

[silk shoal]

please help me
