[tired brook]

Can you be more specific? Is it being logged by a particular mod?

[quartz jetty]

(While I have you, Clint seems to be missed by the unofficial Self Service mod, but that might be my own screwup somehow, but I am guessing it might be because it was made for 1.4 or something, nothing important just mentioning it :P)

[tired brook]

Hmm. I'll take a look next time the mod needs an update (which will probably be for the upcoming Stardew Valley 1.6).

[crimson lichen]

i'm not sure what mod it is, it's cooking ingredients

it's a JA mod

[17:51:41 WARN Json Assets] No idea what 'Cinnamon Sticks' is!]

[lament prairie]

i think that's one of the ppja mods

[crimson lichen]

i removed all of the ppja stuff i thought

[lament prairie]

if you have an optional dependency that isn't installed, sometimes PFM or JA will throw those warnings

do you still have other JA mods

[crimson lichen]

yes

[lament prairie]

That might use PPJA ingredients?

[crimson lichen]

i don't know, lemme look at my list

i removed any that have to have ppja

[lament prairie]

there may be some that have optional parts that use PPJA ingredients—if they don't explicitly use hasmod I believe they throw these warnings. however, since they are warnings you can ignore them I belive.

if you want them to stop happening you're going to have to actually edit the mod itself

[crimson lichen]

ok, just trying to figure out what's wrong with my save not loading

[lament prairie]

Yeah it's not going to be the JA warnings I don't think

[crimson lichen]

ok

[lament prairie]

If you have red text I'd focus on that

[crimson lichen]

i'm just gonna start a new save file

[lavish marlin]

@tired brook you have fangirls now.

You're well on your way to living the life of an '80s rock star

[brisk abyss]

Does anyone use Custom Guild Challenges? I downloaded the unofficial update, but it doesn't have the section for Magma Sprites, so I also can't get Marlon's number. Anyone who knows how I can add it in the config?

[lament prairie]

It might be out of date, since those are 1.5 things

[tired brook]

The rockstar lifestyle: traveling around the Discord channels, signing bug reports, sending pull requests to strange repos...

[lament prairie]

And someone told me that monster goals are super hardcoded

[brisk abyss]

There's the unofficial update which works in 1.5

[lament prairie]

Yes, but "works" for unofficial updates often means "does not fail horribly" and not "entirely bug-free"

[brisk abyss]

Unfortunate. Oh well

I guess I could still try adding other types of rewards instead. But no Marlon number

[strong glacier]

Eyo, I have a question that hopefully some may answer. Currently using...a lot of mods...and I've only just run into my first problem. Currently the Feast of the Winter Star and I've been given a molded npc, specifically Anton from Ridgeside village to give gift....and I have 0 idea where he is lol. Has anyone ever had this happen to them...and is there a way to figure out where he is, or even more to that matter, where an npc is located in an event?

[elfin python]

Some npc dont visit some event

But i think anton should be somewhere

Wait here i have screenshot

[strong glacier]

I'm hoping so, though I worry he might be glitched somewhere

[elfin python]

Do you have any other mod

[strong glacier]

A few. The only things I can see conflicting is SVE and East Scarpe maybe? They're the only ones that change the map and add new npcs

[elfin python]

Hmm sve and ridge side npc

Sometime they collide

[strong glacier]

Oh dear

Is there a way to force them apart or am I better off not attending the feast?

[gaunt condor]

best practice is to only have one mod that changes the map like SVE unless that mod supports the other mod and doesnt conflict with it.

[elfin python]

Sve and ridge kinda support each other

Sve npc visit ridge side event

[gaunt gust]

do you have rsv npcs set to attend festivals?

that's a setting

[strong glacier]

There is a setting for that? This is news to me lol. I shall have to see if I have that selected

Well, I do have it set that they can...but not full festivals which even says can be incompatible with SVE

[gaunt gust]

try full festivals and see if Anton shows up

[strong glacier]

I shall try. Let's see if this breaks it more, or helps

[elfin python]

Its the 25th evemt right

[strong glacier]

Yes

[elfin python]

@strong glacier found anton

[strong glacier]

Oh? Where is he?

[elfin python]

He stands in front of pierre's

[strong glacier]

Huh, don't recall seeing him there. Maybe I needed full festivals on

Thanks for the help!

[elfin python]

Maybe

[gaunt gust]

Anton 16 64 if festivals are on

[elfin python]

Ridge + sve + trying to 10 hearts (8 for marriage able npc)

Oh 60+ npcs

[strong glacier]

Well...he wasnt in front of Pierre. But I did find him

Unfortunately it seems at the sacrifice of Bert and Olga

[elfin python]

Why are they standing lime that

[strong glacier]

This is an....interesting bug

I wish I could say

....

I may have found out why

It appears I have some updating to do

Still, thank you guys for the help! I greatly appreciate it

[lament prairie]

debug wtc NPCname warps you to an npc, debug whereis NPC tells you where they are

[gaunt gust]

(does that work on event npcs? they're all clones)

[strong glacier]

Thank you!

[lament prairie]

oh hmm

never tried this in an event

wait, no, I've tried whereis to good success I think

I haven't tried wtc though

I couldn't find Jessie at first at festivals

[gaunt gust]

(I just poked my head into RSV's well organized codebase)

[proven flume]

i figured out how to do the examples (copy n paste didnt seem to work so well for some reason, but i managed) and i would like to know i can get it to do some other things and to change it's speed. unless its a set speed, then some upgrades would be cool.

!log

[native dragon]

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

[jolly hazel]

@rain peak could you type patch summary into the SMAPI console, close the game, and then follow the instructions in that link above? ^

[rain peak]

https://smapi.io/log/18fde07cd1ad47dabe5a65e8dbef4b15

idk if I did that right

[lament prairie]

(!patchsummary exists too fyi for next time)

[jolly hazel]

ahh it isn't displaying that you have any mods installed

[jolly hazel]

thank you!!

[outer ibex]

@lament prairie hey do you know how to use debug?😂😂

[lament prairie]

what do you mean "use debug"?

[outer ibex]

The commands

[lament prairie]

and I know very little about mobile, just to be clear

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Console_commands

Here's the list of all the commands

[jolly hazel]

have you installed Content Patcher (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1915)? if not, you'll need to do that first! (it's used for a LOT of mods, including the riverland farm replacement i gave you)

[lament prairie]

you type debug command optionallyargumentshere and hit return, on a PC

[jolly hazel]

!cp

[native dragon]

Content Patcher (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1915) is a mod which loads content packs to change the game's images and data without replacing XNB files. If you want to make mods using Content Patcher, start at https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Content_Patcher.

[rain peak]

I do have content patcher on vortexmanager

[gaunt gust]

did you deploy it

[rain peak]

yeah

[gaunt gust]

your log ends after like two lines

[outer ibex]

I want to use the command to already see the event where marlon gives you a sword when you enter mines 1st time and I do not know how to use the commands and yes I have content patcher

[jolly hazel]

would not recommend using vortex to manage mods 😅 it messes stuff up a lot

[lament prairie]

okay so this is going to be a bad time on mobile, since I don't think you can unpack the game files

since debug ebi EVENTNUMBER needs the event nunmber

[outer ibex]

Ok thanks

[lament prairie]

Also I'm not sure that good things will happen if you try to make this event happen early

it happens like, 4 days into a save?

[jolly hazel]

i believe the event number you're looking for is 100162

[lament prairie]

you can try that^ then

[outer ibex]

No just whenever you enter first time

[rain peak]

would I have to install all my mods manually and heck to updates then??

[hearty dagger]

Hello. May I ask for help this is the log https://smapi.io/log/062c8871c77347adaf78c66f35b493f8

[lament prairie]

the marlon sword event already happens first time you enter the mines

[jolly hazel]

installing everything manually is how most of us do it, yes

smapi notifies you when updates are available

[late nebula]

That's what a lot of us do

[hearty dagger]

the game is crushing and i don't know what to do

[jolly hazel]

and there's MUCH less risk of messing things up

[rain peak]

oooh ok

i'll try that then

[lament prairie]

has it crashed to desktop, or just stopped responding?

[outer ibex]

Thx @lament prairie

[lament prairie]

[devout pumice]

[#5858] "If your game has "crashed" while loading and you are using PyTK, it is very likely that it has just stopped responding, and you need to leave it alone to think for a while. If you click repeatedly on the game while it is not responding, you may cause it to crash to desktop.

Load times may be as high as 10 minutes or more if you have several large mods, with 5 minutes being fairly typical. If you are not using PyTK for any of your mods, it may be helpful to remove it." - @lament prairie (05 Feb 2022 @ 10:15:57 PM UTC)

[hearty dagger]

it stopped responding and it closes

[late nebula]

How long did you wait?

[jolly hazel]

feel free to ping me again in here if you run into any issues

[elfin python]

You do

[hearty dagger]

around 5 mins. then I opened discord to ask for help

[hearty dagger]

thank you for this!

[devout pumice]

k

[late nebula]

I would try updating your mods first to see if that helps. Especially Content Patcher and pytk

[rain peak]

np, also I ended up fixing it by running smap on vortex and its linked with steam

[hearty dagger]

I actually removed my ridgeside folder from the mods. is that alright?

[late nebula]

Should be unless you wanted to use it.

Might want to check and see if anything you have is using pytk. If you don't need that mod, I would 100% recommend deleting it.

[hearty dagger]

yes, i wanted to play the game with just aesthetic mods and decided to remove it along side with spawner and cheats.

[hearty dagger]

thank you so much! I will see! Thanks a bunch

[gaunt gust]

I don't think you need pytk for anything

you could remove that

[late nebula]

The only aesthetic mods that use pytk afaik are ones that load HD textures.

[hearty dagger]

I'm so sorry to bother everyone but kindly see this folder.

[hearty dagger]

I removed the pytk already

[jolly hazel]

have you tried relaunching the game and seeing what happens?

[hearty dagger]

I'm relaunching the game now. earlier when I launched the it won't go thru the saved files/farms

I think it's working better than earlier and it launched much faster too! Thank you everyone for the help and supper sorry for bother!

😅 so I tried to mod stardew valley for the first time (I own it on steam) thru vortex. But I got a crash pretty much.

Okay, did you run the installer?

And did you get green text at the end?

[crisp pumice]

I did that already

[lament prairie]

Okay, great

What were you moving, then?

the Mods folder must live in the game folder

you cannot move it anywhere else

hey everyone

I used to play a lot of stardew valley modded but I havent touched the game in months. How do I update the mod manager (smapi i think it was called)? how do i know if my mods are up to date? i just need a quick refresher

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

@minor wyvern 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

[gaunt gust]

just reinstall smapi

(it'll clean up after itself)

[minor wyvern]

I never uninstalled it thankfully

[gaunt gust]

you will probably need ot update like every mod

reinstall to update as well

a lot has changed

[minor wyvern]

so I should just run it and it'll tell me what I need to fix/update?

[lament prairie]

1. reinstall SMAPI
2. try to launch the game
3. see what the log says

[minor wyvern]

ah, this was way easier than i thought

if only other games had it this easy

[left ginkgo]

It's installed on my phone but is there something else I have to do?

[lament prairie]

You need to download mods, unzip them, and place them into the mods folder

That's about all I can say since I know absolutely nothing about Android

(like really, really nothing, I can barely unlock my friends' phones)

[crisp pumice]

Yes it works sitting mod works

I don't know how to mod stardew with smapi on my phone

[lament prairie]

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

The Android version of the game is quite a bit different from other ports and so needs a custom version of SMAPI. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Android for details on getting started.

[lament prairie]

in case that was a question and not a comment

[crisp pumice]

I have Iphone 11 pro max

[lament prairie]

Ok then nope

iOS does not support modding

There is an extremely technical explanation you can read on the SMAPI github

Basically, iOS is big on each app not touching another app, so no modding on iOS, probably ever

[crisp pumice]

steam overlay allows you to take screenshots i believ

[lament prairie]

it might just be a steam thing if I'm guessing what a steam overlay is

the game itself takes screenshots

options menu, all the way at the bottom

no i mean steam screenshots that save to steam

so you can post them on steam

I've never tried that, so i can't really say

[cedar lark]

I'm guessing there isn't an easy way to see what an xnb skin file looks like without downloading an external program?

[lament prairie]

not really, you could use it as an adopt n skin pack

and then get one of that kind of animal with CJB cheats' help

and then set_skin

this doesn't seem all that easy though

[cedar lark]

not really no, I was sent a pack of skins and some of them are xnb

i was just trying to find all the eeveeloutions

[crisp pumice]

I did a goof I took the files out of the folders and smapi had no clue what I was doing

[upper ember]

You could send me a zipped folder of the XNB skins and I can convert them to png and send them back

I have the program for it already, I use it for AdoptnSkin to get a stupidly high amount of skins

[crisp pumice]

And once I put the files back in It worked like a charm

[cedar lark]

that would be great actually

Could anyone help me with recovering a missing save file? Here is the SMAPI code I keep getting. https://smapi.io/log/41fb6c0ddf0644f496f7caa33e289453

If anyone could help, I greatly appreciate it. I have the files on my computer, I just don’t know why it won’t appear when I hit “load” in game.

[lament prairie]

Unfortunately your save is corrupted

You can try to load a backup—the game itself saves 1 day of backup, and if you have Save Backup it saves more

!saves

[native dragon]

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

[lament prairie]

Make sure to backup everything before you try funny things with saves

(Copy to another folder and keep just in case)

[wet fog]

@lament prairie is there no way to recover this? I made a copy before I messed around with it

[lament prairie]

No known way other than recovering from backups

[wet fog]

Do I have a possibility of getting that file back loading from a back-up?

I’m not very tech savvy

[lament prairie]

Loading from a backup often works if the corruption is due to the day save process being interrupted

Sometimes it doesn't work, but I think often it does

All you need here is to be careful and methodical in copying files from folder to folder

[wet fog]

I’m not sure how to load from a backup…

I located my save files

[lament prairie]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Undo_the_last_save

[wet fog]

@lament prairie and I would load the game from steam as normal once I’ve made those changes?

Hey everyone. I'm having some trouble that I need help with. I'm trying to run a pretty heavily modded SDV (which is probably most of the problem). I had a fairly stable setup recently with a similar set of mods, but when some updates came out recently it broke everything. I've since retooled the mod list and was planning to start over, however now I can't even load into the game. I can get to the title screen and try to start a new game, but it freezes when it tries to load me in my room.

I'm wondering if I just have too many mods or some mods are conflicting or something. I tried to be careful about mod conflicts, but I may have missed something.

My SDV is on Steam and I'm running Windows 11

[#5858] "If your game has "crashed" while loading and you are using PyTK, it is very likely that it has just stopped responding, and you need to leave it alone to think for a while. If you click repeatedly on the game while it is not responding, you may cause it to crash to desktop.

Load times may be as high as 10 minutes or more if you have several large mods, with 5 minutes being fairly typical. If you are not using PyTK for any of your mods, it may be helpful to remove it." - @lament prairie (05 Feb 2022 @ 10:15:57 PM UTC)

[lament prairie]

(There's no error in the log, it just kinda stops, which is why this is my guess)

[gilded cosmos]

Ah ok, so that's a known thing with PyTK. I know several of my mods needed it. I'll check which ones those are and see if I can live without those.

[lament prairie]

Although I think you most likely need PyTK for several mods since TMXL is pretty popular

[autumn sedge]

Ive figured that out lol, I dont know how to fix it is the issue

[nova moon]

can somebody help me? im trying to download this mod but theres another mod needed for it, but i cant seem to find the most recent version because the others say they need updating, and the mod links 3 links for the same mod and im confused

[lament prairie]

!compat

[native dragon]

See https://smapi.io/mods for a searchable list of mods updated for the latest versions of SMAPI and Stardew Valley, with links to download them. :)

[gilded cosmos]

It looks like the main things I will lose are East Scarp, Downtown Zuzu, Museum Expansion, and Stardew Aquarium, which is unfortunate because I was looking forward to trying out new locations.

[lament prairie]

just search on the compat list

[lament prairie]

East Scarpe and DTZ should update soon

But also, you can just live with the load times most likely?

It takes me 5 min to load up

But I like the aquarium a lot

[gaunt gust]

Unfortunately, I don't have a Mac so....

chmod is the right command for it

[lament prairie]

(you coulllld chmod i bet)

[gilded cosmos]

I can see if I can get it to load. I've definitely waited more than 10 minutes. Do I need to keep the game window focused for it to load properly?

[lament prairie]

I think you might need to at least some of the time

I don't use Windows so I'm not totally sure

[cedar lark]

more expansion mods are moving away from pytk

[gaunt gust]

I think.so

[lament prairie]

did you have to enable anything special to get SMAPI to install?

you can fix a file in finder

Right click > Get Info

[cedar lark]

oh...what happened

[lament prairie]

Scroll down, Sharing and Permissions

[cedar lark]

did the content patcher update cause load times to go super fast or something?

[lament prairie]

Then you can change those so you can fix

[gilded cosmos]

Maybe I'll just wait and see if those get updated soon. Thanks you all for the help. I really appreciate it.

[lament prairie]

Yep!

[cedar lark]

i was thinking i messed up something

wow

hats off to the dev

[lament prairie]

Ameise helped optimize things a lot

[cedar lark]

I literally scrolled up when the game launched to see if i had a "this mod was skipped" list

[lament prairie]

I'm curious now..

[crisp pumice]

show us the log

[cedar lark]

mine?

[crisp pumice]

Is it cheating for a golden walnut machine in game if I mod for it ??

[astral plover]

do you feel like you cheated yourself?

nobody cares what you do in your game, its your own experience that you cheat yourself out of or not.

[crisp pumice]

Okay

Yes I do cheat my self

[cedar lark]

so with adopt and skin, does the stray even change? it feels like ive seen the same dog in there

[astral plover]

changes to dog/cat_1 i think

[cedar lark]

I just added some more cat skins, but it's always a dog it seems

[astral plover]

the first stray you get? or the ones you get at the store randomly?

[cedar lark]

the one at the store

[astral plover]

i've seen both, since i adopted a bunch of eiter

[cedar lark]

I have my Shiny Umbreon, I was hoping to get the others

[crisp pumice]

Sounds like a NBA refence

[cedar lark]

Maybe I should phrase it this way, will I not get the option to adopt a stray cat until I adopt the dog?

[lament prairie]

it should be random

[cedar lark]

ah fair enough, ill keep looking

[astral plover]

i grew up on the country side, chicken are often quite discontent with you existing, i can confirm

[hoary bane]

Glad I didn't if thats the case

[cedar lark]

Things like these makes me thankful I was born in the city hot damn.

[lament prairie]

you know, people say that, and it fills me with a terrible curiousity

it seems like a bad idea, but I've been very tempted to pick a fight with a goose

[cedar lark]

since its off topic ill post it in town square

but the video is why i say it

[hoary bane]

LOL. Do it, you won't

[shy orbit]

wow, the content patcher update actually cut majority of my load times. it used to be about 4 minutes, now the game loaded in 1 minute and 10 seconds

[cedar lark]

its amazing

I was saying earlier i thought I messed up on updating mods and it had skipped everything

[cedar lark]

it has begun

how does the stardew fair treat modded items?

for instance a modded flower

[tulip citrus]

https://smapi.io/log/72fb31659450406cb66d9c2ac55b7149 i saw no errors but SVE didn't work ingame there's nothing and also grandpa's house didn't replace my default farm I'm mobile

[cedar lark]

well you have a lot of errors, your missing some mods

you need to update some of them since the versions your using are outdated and using outdated dependencies

[tulip citrus]

I'm sure i downloaded all the required mods

[upper ember]

Make sure you have the right versions

SVE has a mobile version on ModDrop

[tulip citrus]

i did download that

[tulip citrus]

but saw no map content

[tulip citrus]

yeah on mobile some mods have to be old to work on mobile

[upper ember]

They're using mobile, mobile has different versions so a lot of updates they can't do

[cedar lark]

ah fair enough

I'm not exactly sure which versions work then

[tulip citrus]

same xd

[cedar lark]

!sve

[native dragon]

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

[upper ember]

The SVE discord could easily point to where to get grandpa's farm for mobile

[tulip citrus]

oh there's a server for SVE?

[cedar lark]

yeah seems like even the guide doesn't exactly show install info for android

[tulip citrus]

yep

[#5851] "So, that question seems to be mostly SVE-specific. You might have better luck getting answers from the official SVE subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/StardewValleyExpanded/ or SVE discord (linked on the sidebar of the subreddit)." - @gaunt gust (02 Feb 2022 @ 08:21:20 PM UTC)

[cedar lark]

guess I'll try adding a honeysuckle to my display and see what happens

[agile basin]

So I switched to DCBurgers portraits today (the standalone CP compatible mod) instead of portraiture, to use lunakatt's DCBurger style portraits for SDVE, but now I keep getting this error message whenever I load into the game. I did install the compatibility patch that DCBurger had on his mods but yeah. I dont know... I figured I'd try asking here too, maybe someone's got an idea on how to fix this?

[shy orbit]

those are SVE npcs and come from the content patcher part of SVE, so SVE install is corrupted/missing parts

or they aren't loaded for whatever reason. if you upload the whole log we might see why

!log

[native dragon]

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

[agile basin]

https://smapi.io/log/5a720405166147e0a642d0b146b46fbb here you go!

I updated the mod today, it was working completely fine before

[shy orbit]

deleting all of SVE and reinstalling it and rechecking its dependencies would be the best choice. its dependencies and folder structure changed somewhat recently

[cedar lark]

i haven't had to update SVE in a while

[agile basin]

I noticed 2 extra ones got added recently... I'll try that out and see how it works
And yeah I've been putting off my updates for a bit

[shy orbit]

this mod also is installed twice Fishing Made Easy Suite because you have multiple copies of this mod installed. To fix this, delete these folders and reinstall the mod: Mods\[CP] [GMCM] Fishing Made Easy Suite, Mods\[CP] Fishing Made Easy Suite.

just be sure to delete the old SVE install

[agile basin]

Ooooh you're right, they are there twice

[cedar lark]

this will keep bugging me

[agile basin]

Just to make sure before I'm messing up here again. Do I just pull the Stardew Valley Expanded folder into my Mods folder, or do I pull the folders in there into the Mods folder?

[cedar lark]

the folder that has the subfolders in it, that goes into Mods

don't pull them out

[agile basin]

okies

I also noticed I was missing 2 compatibility mods, especially the ExtraMapLayers one, maybe that messed it up before

No error messages and everything seems to be working fine, thankyou!

[cedar lark]

interesting...and i think the dev of Love of cooking noticed it as well, but at the fair you can eat infinite burgers

but the energy you get goes down every time

so even if you have heal over time you can't stack it forever

[lament prairie]

I thought blueberry said they fixed infinite burgers

I don’t remember for sure though

That was a while back

[cedar lark]

that might be how they did? I didn't try eating forever

I just noticed the energy going down every time i ate one

Heya. Does anyone have any idea what causes this Error Item to spawn instead of a normal item from the game? Here is my log: https://smapi.io/log/0ca0f2c4c5ea487ba48b97b63266e146 The mail is from a mod, but its the only time it actually picks up the Error Item, while it should be a vanilla item. The other times I see it is when I'm mining and it drops from rocks instead of stone, but when I pick it up it does list it as stone

[lavish marlin]

isn't that one of the infinity stones?

[valid girder]

im keeping it now

[shy orbit]

what mod is it from?

[valid girder]

the mail mod is this one: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2388?tab=description but I already had the error item show up before I had this mod

[shy orbit]

okay, seems the mod just specified an item id that doesn't exist in the game for the letter , 391

so it's coming up as a generic error item

if you want to fix it, it's in the content.json of the first part of the mail mod, on the line that starts with "fall_1"

[finite linden]

I tried to install a recolor which seemed to work fine, but I kept getting a "re-shade needs an update" on the main screen of stardew, even after deletion of the files installed for the recolor. I uninstalled stardew and re-installed, but it still said that. So I ran disk cleanup, suspecting files left behind after an improper uninstall. aand, you guessed it - still telling me re-shade has an update 😒

to the best of my knowledge I have removed everything associated with this mod but it persists

https://smapi.io/log/70e8a558389e491eb761d409a3936aa2 - though I don't think you need this

[valid girder]

aaah I see, that makes sense then. But I see the same item when I'm mining rocks in the mines, any idea what may cause that? It doesnt bother me that much cause when I pick it up it coverts to stone

[shy orbit]

not sure about that, just anything that modifies the mining drops is suspect i guess (and custom ore node content packs might add nodes that look like vanilla, but are not i guess)

[finite linden]

I haven't yet played the game today. I wonder if it is something in a SMAPI backup and if I deleted today's backup, would that fix the issue? 🤔

[shy orbit]

can you link the reshade?

[finite linden]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1213

[shy orbit]

it has specific uninstall instructions Start "Natural Color - Launcher", press [1], and select the option "[2] Delete Natural Color" and all Natural Color files will be deleted (except the "Screenshots" folder).

[finite linden]

I tried that but the uninstall option was not there

before I did all the other stuff, I tried that 😄

the reshade.ini file is still in the game folder even after re-install of the game (and previously deleting that file)

[shy orbit]

then i'd suggest making a backup of anything you want to keep from the game like the Mods folder, and then deleting the game folder and reinstalling (unless you already did it). steam for example doesn't remove added files from the game directory when uninstalling the game

[finite linden]

I did that

no. I did not delete the game folder itself. I did uninstall, reboot and then re install but I did not actually delete the game folder.. derp. I will try that

[late nebula]

Yeah uninstalling doesn't get rid of mods or anything else in the folder usually.

usually

[finite linden]

it's always a simple thing isn't it.. hopefully this works

yup all good.

Hi, any1 know why my "more elegant farmer clothes" doesn't work? I already updated the mods needed. Elegant farmer body and hat works for me but not the clothes.. How do i get the clothes or should I sew it?

[sly gale]

Hello, I'm running version 1.5.6 with SMAPI 3.13.4 on windows. Most times when trying to start my game over steam, the smapi interface gets to "all mods loaded and ready", then several minutes pass with nothing happening. Then the game starts, but has trouble loading my saves. If it doesn't freeze trying to do this, it freezes trying to load the save. This is my log: https://smapi.io/log/2733df81307847e3936de6c8567680de Does anybody know why this happens? Thank you in advance 🙂

I recently updated smapi and all my mods, but nothing changed...

[quiet night]

Does it freeze for a few mins then goes back to normal or?

[sly gale]

No, I mean at some point I stopped waiting, but I think it freezes for good...

[hoary bane]

How long did you wait?

.q 5858

[devout pumice]

[#5858] "If your game has "crashed" while loading and you are using PyTK, it is very likely that it has just stopped responding, and you need to leave it alone to think for a while. If you click repeatedly on the game while it is not responding, you may cause it to crash to desktop.

[hoary bane]

[quiet night]

I don’t think she has pyTK by looking at her log but she does have SpaceCore

[hoary bane]

Huh, your mods are so teeny

I wonder why

[gaunt gust]

Odd

[hoary bane]

But still. does it eventually load if you wait long enough?

[sly gale]

I don't know what pyTK is... I can try again with waiting loner, but even getting to the start screen take several minutes

[gaunt gust]

Can you whitelist smapi with your antivirus?

[quiet night]

And as far as I know, SpaceCore doesn’t eat up your loading time.

[gaunt gust]

How long does the vanilla game take to boot?

[sly gale]

Not long last time I tried

[sly gale]

How do I do that?

I'm trying to run the game again right now and letting it sit if it doesn't respond. I'll report back

[gaunt gust]

Depends on your antivirus

[sly gale]

My husband has the exact same mods (I ust copied the folder for him) and for him it works just fine btw, no issues starting at all

[gaunt gust]

Google usually pulls up the right instructions

[gaunt gust]

Is not long "a minute"?

Base game is usually near instant

[sly gale]

No it was instant I think

Okay, it just got me to the title screen a minute ago, that's how long it takes. Now I'm trying to load my game

I found the list of applications trusted by my firewall. Stardew valley is trusted, but smapi is not listed. Is that what you meant?

...it is still showing a black screen with "loading" in the corner

I also deleted the starting preference file earlier today, didn't do anything. The past couple of days, after restarting my PC and the game several times, it worked for some reason, but not today

Okay, you guys were right, it is running now. Thank you Though if you have any ideas how I get it to not take quarter of an hour to be ready, they would be appreciated

...it lags now, which it never did before 😫

[elfin patrol]

So I'm running the DGA version of the PPJA mods (found here: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9443) and I'm having problems where a lot of the items in it show up in shops like this: https://i.imgur.com/moQz4G2.png

Any idea what's causing this or how to fix it? If you buy the item it doesn't give you anything, just takes the money.

[shy orbit]

the DGA version of farmer to florist is simply broken at least, need to use json assets version

[elfin patrol]

Yeah I'm using that version of farmer to florist - I had to use the prior update even to get the mail to work at all otherwise smapi would say it doesn't know what the mail recipe is, so it just removed it

[shy orbit]

maybe the DGA versions of the other PPJA mods don't play nice with the JA version of farmer to florist

[red granite]

can anyone help me

[shy orbit]

you need to either update the game or downgrade smapi

[red granite]

okay i will try + ty 💜

[lament prairie]

You can add false dependencies to make it load last if you really want to keep it

But that’s definitely Lux’s food mod doing it

[novel sluice]

I deleted it and it really is the culprit!

thank you guys so so much!!!

[hoary bane]

Whaaaat I thought those invisible sprites were already fixed

[lament prairie]

Nope it’s an inherent pytk bug

[lament prairie]

You can fix it by forcing the mod to load last, but this depends on what other mods you have. The authors added the most popular ones but that doesn’t cover everything.

[dapper lodge]

So what does it mean if I can find a mod in the Configure Mods menu? Does that mean it hasn't loaded or do some mods not have a menu?

For example the Skull Cavern mod. I have it but it's not in the menu.

[lament prairie]

Some mods don’t use GMCM

You have to actually look in the folders to configure those

To check if they’ve loaded, you use the log

!log

[native dragon]

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

[dapper lodge]

Okay thank you!

[neat plaza]

how do they "overwrite" each other

[native basalt]

in the mod organizer, when both are activated, one will say has 'overwritten loose files' and the other will say 'overwrites loose files'

[neat plaza]

and what mod organizer is this

[native basalt]

both of those messages disappear when one is deactivated

unfortunately it's literally called "mod organizer"

[astral plover]

stop using mod organizers for stardew. all you need to do is put the folder into \mods and thats it.

mod managers do more harm than good

also the one you're referring to has not seen updates since 2020 (assuming its mod organizer 2) and even at the time had problems

[robust bison]

(unless it's stardrop, which hopefully will become the best way to manage mods)

[astral plover]

stardew modding is so user friendly without a manager tho, nobody should even need a software for that

its literally just dropping files into a folder

which is most likely the reason why there arent any good ones

[native basalt]

i don't agree with you, but that's digressing. as soon as I saw SVE needed 38 dependencies in x order, i'm not doing this manually

[neat plaza]

not in x order

and its not 38

[astral plover]

managers will never auto download dependancies unless you have nexus premium

[neat plaza]

it's 9
most of which if you install other mods you will already have

[astral plover]

maybe vortex can do that, not sure, but vortex screws up your stardew installation anyway

and yeah in the time you complain about that you couldve already downloaded them. you middle mouse click the list of dependancies, go into the tab and click manual download

[misty heron]

Ok, what files do I edit to edit dialouge

I want Haley(who looks like yang) to say Lets yang out... because puns

[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).

[hoary bane]

Plus that

[safe current]

Thanks. I'll make a backup and then give it a try

[hoary bane]

Can't really say there's a safe way. Hope you are fortunate ^^

Hello all I am needing some help on the fact my co-op won't work right for my friend and I so i can join his game. We were playing then went offline for a few then got back on and it will not let me back on and my character is even missing, and the thing freezes when i swing my axe.

[robust bison]

[native dragon]

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

[rare skiff]

ok let me know if i did this right. https://smapi.io/log/822c443990d54363915ae4bd63d1cda9

[shy orbit]

custom items from the mod should be deleted (trashed) before removing it and quests too probably. not sure if there could be other problems though

[rare skiff]

Ya for my friend it does not show any red writing but for me when the game launches to join him it goes red then loads but on the screen the bed is there and everything just not me

[robust bison]

do you both have the exact same mods?

[rare skiff]

yes

[robust bison]

and you're sure he didn't change anything

[rare skiff]

nope we re did it all just 1 hour ago

[safe current]

So I deleted the Ridgeside Village folder and as a precaution used the Save Editor to delete my character's relationships with all the RSV characters. I also deleted the instances of them meeting.
Booted it up and it works like a charm. SMAPI said "removed invalid items to prevent crash" which in the log was just all of the villagers.

[marble thicket]

Why

[gaunt gust]

(because I've been following similar issues in the Monogame github repo and they're not handled quickly)

[marble thicket]

May the God be with us

[shy orbit]

smapi's error handler mod actually does all the needed work to remove problematic npc data from the save file, so touching it isn't needed. but modded items and quests do cause problems

[rare skiff]

so then is that what my problems is or?

[safe current]

Gotcha. I was just nervous, haha. I didn't have any items or quests

[marble thicket]

Is there any way to fix it?

I have stardew 1.5.4 i did the revert option

But i need to find an older version for e v e r y s i n g l e m o d

[robust bison]

you're having errors with spacecore, custom companions, quest framework, and some dialogue, but I'm not sure what the actual problem is

[rare skiff]

ya its weird we can start a game together play just fine but when we go offline then come back on it bugs out

[gaunt gust]

this is multiplayer?

[rare skiff]

to where I cant load into his game its just the screen of the house with the bed and me not there

yes

[gaunt gust]

one of you guys zip up the mods folder and email it to the other

make sure you have matching mods

if you do have matching mods, it's a game of "remove mods until you figure out who broke multiplayer"

[rare skiff]

we are trying it now

[gaunt gust]

uh, they're on github? https://github.com/MonoGame/MonoGame

[marble thicket]

What can i do with this?

I mean

[gaunt gust]

effectively - I don't think there is a way to fix your problem

I think it's a monogame problem. You're waiting for them to fix it

Hello all I am needing some help, When I start my game it stops and does not let me close the game or do anything else, could you help me?

can you elaborate?

[neat rune]

I already updated the mods, but the game stops and does not advance.

I think you just need to give it more time to load

[neat rune]

thank you very much

[gaunt gust]

might need to whitelist smapi with your antivirus

[neat rune]

how

[lament prairie]

google "how to whitelist antivirusnamehere"

[gaunt gust]

(I don't think there is an ui info suite for android)

(someone was developing one at one point)

[left ginkgo]

Yup there isn't

Sad!

[left ginkgo]

It's not there dude lmao

[swift bough]

Please tell me why this doesn't work...

[astral plover]

wood path probably isnt added in the config

[swift bough]

It is. I've added it

that left chest works, the right one doesn't

[astral plover]

open the overlay

via the toggleoverlay hotkey

[astral plover]

wood floor is added

wood path is not

automated tiles can connect diagonally

so the chest connects diagonally to the wood floor

[swift bough]

ohh...

Thank you so much

[astral plover]

no problem 👍

[swift bough]

Much nicer.

[left ginkgo]

I think I didn't install the paths for this correctly

Nvm I fixed it

[left ginkgo]

Wait how did u do this

[twilit dagger]

I downloaded the happybirthday mod and made sure to download all the extension stuff but when I go to launch a file an error will pop up and lewis just stands outside my door. this being the error screen.

[lament prairie]

You might need to report this on the mod page

The mod just had a major update and is still ironing out a few last bugs, I believe

[twilit dagger]

alright, thanks I'll do that

[robust bison]

what is the happy birthday content pack actually?

just a CP port of HB?

[astral plover]

do what? you just open the config and write it in there

most mods generate a config after you start the game with it for the first time

[lament prairie]

No, Happy Birthday was rewritten as a framework, I think. It might use CP to store data but it's not CP-only.

[left ginkgo]

Well unfortunately it didn't

[robust bison]

oh

[astral plover]

i doubt that

[astral plover]

it always does. make a screenshot of the things that are inside of your automate folder

[chilly dock]

you can try to config from the SMAPI installer app

just find the mod here

[left ginkgo]

Holly fuck this is alot

I just put here right

[chilly dock]

yep ^^

Time for anesthetic mods

[wispy obsidian]

how can i get UI info suite for android? Tried downloading an earlier version but didnt work :(

[lament prairie]

see this convo, there isn't one

[gilded cosmos]

Hey all. I asked around yesterday for help with long load times and decided for now to play without PyTK (and anything that depends on it). However, now I'm having a problem that when I try to open a chest, the chest doesn't open and an error occurs in the SMAPI console.

Can someone take a look and see if you have any ideas what's going wrong?

https://smapi.io/log/353e2408a6844b2db2dc0d958da13251

[left ginkgo]

Tf does this mean

[gaunt gust]

is this all chests or just specific chests?

[lament prairie]

Did you update some of your JA mods to be DGA mods? If so you might have leftover bad JA objects in a chest

Also, the PPJA DGA mods are broken

You should probably revert back a version to the JA versions

[gilded cosmos]

I started a new game. Got enough wood to place a chest, tried to open it, and the error occurred. Shouldn't have been any leftover objects since it was new save.
I am using the DGA PPJA Redux, though. So DGA stuff is broken atm?

[dusty spruce]

generally speaking, DGA was made mostly to fix a very specific issue JA had ("the JSON shuffle ™️", but it did so at the cost of being incompatible with a lot of standard item stuff already there in the game.
also, DGA is now at this weird point where it's pointless to change a lot of stuff in it, as that particular reason for DGA's existence will no longer exist when Stardew 1.6 releases

[gilded cosmos]

Ah, I see. So should I just avoid using DGA altogether?

[dusty spruce]

so basically everyone is now waiting for 1.6 to be released, so DGA is no longer needed for this particular reason (although it still adds some other features) and JA will keep being a thing, i assume

and yeah, i'd say avoid for now

unless you really want some stuff

[gilded cosmos]

Sounds good. Thanks for the help

[left ginkgo]

It's manifest is invalid?

[stiff moon]

whenever i launch modded stardew recently, my monitor becomes significantly darker when i exit the game. the only way my brightness for my darkness is fixed is when i turn my monitor off then on again. is there anything i can do to fix this?

[gaunt gust]

seems like a monitor issue

what monitor do you have, and does it try to dynamically adjust on you?

[left ginkgo]

Uhh what does this mean

[gaunt gust]

means you need to find the versions for android

one sec

https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Mobile_Modding_Compatibility you need 1.19.6

[left ginkgo]

So luv I need for pytk to be in 1.19.6

[west moth]

hey guys, this keeps happenin whenever i try to move sde into my mods folder, i dunno what to do D:

[shy orbit]

is SVE inside a folder with a long name, particularly the same name as the nexus zip? if so, try moving the Stardew Valley Expanded (or similar) folder that is inside it to the mods folder instead

[west moth]

ohh okay!!

that worked thank u hehe

[lament prairie]

To be clear, DGA is mostly fine. The PPJA packs specifically were converted by machine, and are actively broken.

[left ginkgo]

It worked
Thanks

[vague bane]

hello I have a super quick question. I wanted to launch my modded game from stems so that it tracks my hours played. However I have already deleted the SMAPI installer. If I redownload the SMAPI installer can I just do the steam overlay from there, or do I need to completely reinstall SMAPI?

from steam*

[lament prairie]

dunno what a steam overlay is, but you do need to reinstall SMAPI to use mods

You can launch trhough steam with SMAPI

either with setting launch options on Windows

Or just by default on Mac/Linux

[vague bane]

I already have SMAPI installed, if I want to configure it to launch through steam do I need to delete and redownload it? Does that make more sense?

[lament prairie]

you don't need to redownload to add launch options

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

[vague bane]

okay the instructions on the wiki say to use the SMAPI installer

[lament prairie]

ah, i see

that's because it's easier

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Find_your_game_folder

Basically, you need your game folder location path

But you can probably find it other ways

[vague bane]

ohhh and finding it thru installer is the easiest way?

[lament prairie]

yeah

[vague bane]

gotcha so I have to find the path and then just follow instructions

[lament prairie]

yeah, think so—I'm not terribly familiar with Windows though so if it has problems come back and maybe someone else can help

[gaunt gust]

(it's just the path to StardewModdingAPI.exe + %command% for Windows. You have to quote the path because it has a space in it)

[robust bison]

are they just trying to find the game path?

[vague bane]

Yes. I am trying to configure it to launch thru steam, but I deleted my SMAPI installer

[robust bison]

ah

did you get it yet or no?

[vague bane]

do i just copy and paste this from the wiki? C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe

[gaunt gust]

if your install is in the default location, you can just copy from the wiki

the whole thing though: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

[vague bane]

Do I need to delete the quotations?

[brazen hawk]

no

[vague bane]

okay tysm!!

[vague bane]

ohhh thats what u meant lmao sorry im hella dumb

[gilded cosmos]

So I think I figured out what my problem was with the chest errors. I was originally using Overworld Chests because I thought the idea of random treasure chests was kind of fun. But it ended up being too much and I decided to remove it. However, I didn't remove Advanced Loot Framework (one of the dependencies), and that's what was causing the error.

[gilded cosmos]

Well never mind. I apparently don't have the problem with my chests fixed. I was able to place one that I can open, but any other chest I place doesn't open and give an error in the console.

Anybody have any other ideas what's going wrong?

https://smapi.io/log/43ea5c09fa164a289cf6ad9a9e15b4f0

Based on a quick look at the error, it looks like something in FuryCore is what's causing the problem, but I don't know if it's FuryCore itself or one of the mods that depend on it.

[lament prairie]

Fury is in the middle of moving rn last I heard but there’s I think some info in the mod comments that might help?

I don’t use any of these mods so I’m not totally sure

[proven flume]

aw for shame, should turn Maru into a bot-shop and buy new wheels for the bot. i'd like to see what more it can do

[split egret]

Well it wouldn't do any more, it would just do it faster 😁

[proven flume]

is fishing possible?

since it has that whole minigame

[split egret]

Not yet. It's something I'm thinking about adding at some point, though!

[proven flume]

a fishing bot, sitting there filling a chest all day, op

[split egret]

yeah, could be 🤔

[proven flume]

im afraid to take my bot off farm, the townies just hate him

[split egret]

I've heard some people have had good success with him in the mines, but I haven't tried that yet myself.

[proven flume]

wait... how?

drop him and let him clear rocks?

[split egret]

yeah I think so

[proven flume]

if it could use ladders ....

[split egret]

haha, no, bots shut themselves off whenever you're not around

(they're lazy, you see)

(well not actually off, but they stop working until you come back)

[proven flume]

THAT BASTARD, i told him to clear my field and he said "sure chief" .... explains why it wasn't done by the time i came back.

i'd like to use it multiplayer

[split egret]

yeah that's a frequent request, and I definitely want it too. It's just much harder to support.

But we'll get there eventually! 💪

[proven flume]

yeah i can't actually see how, it certainly has a dynamic that other mods don't cover.

oh right wheres that miniscript server, i'll check it out i need to learn. it seems similar to other languages but different enough

[stiff moon]

im currently using an LG 27" ultragear monitor

[gaunt gust]

it's probably doing some sort of dynamic adjustment on you

I would recommend finding your monitor's manual and turning that off

[stiff moon]

o, ic. thank you!

[iron sky]

probably a stupid ass question but just to make sure 💀

if i make folders of mods it doesn’t break anything right?

[gaunt gust]

You're fine as long as you don't nest too deeply

(the maximum Windows path length is 260 - so stay below that_

[iron sky]

ok! thank you

:3

[split egret]

Hey guys I'm thinking of downloading Price Drops mod. I was curious if anyone knows whether the unofficial update still works for 1.5 (the update was posted in 2019) https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/updating-mods-for-stardew-valley-1-4.156000/page-18#post-3353768

This is the original mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2047

[iron sky]

hmm

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10563

i’ve seen this mod that’s newer

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10598

that’s all of them

[river panther]

smapi is safe right? I wanna be sure before i download it

[outer turret]

yes it's safe! Just get it from smapi.io or Nexus, nowhere else

[quiet umbra]

are JA and DGA completely separate? no interdependence at all?

I have been trying to figure out why I can't get Stardew RPG to work correctly for me.... I have spent untold hours removing mods & replacing mods (I'm currently running somewhere around 500) trying to find the intermod conflict... I finally found out that if I disable JsonAssets, then Stardew RPG will work correctly. However... it's not JA per se (rhymes, don't it? that's the culprit because I can run a stripped down version of the game with JA and a couple of JA mods & everything works fine.

[civic violet]

Well this is new.

[quiet umbra]

Looks like you got a bad case of holes there....

[civic violet]

It's shows shadows where the rocks are supposed to be, the weeds are just invisible.

[quiet umbra]

ah... I thought maybe treasure hunters had struck in the night. Seriously tho, did you just start using any kind of mod that would affect resources?

[gaunt gust]

are you uusing lux's food mod

[civic violet]

Yes

[gaunt gust]

yeah...lux's food mod has to load after every mod that touches maps/springobjects

so either add a false dependency to force it to load last

or don't use that mod

(actually, try renaming the directory something like zzzzLuxFoodMood first, maybe)

[quiet umbra]

☝️

[civic violet]

Thanks, that probably would have one of the last mods I tried disabling.

[robust sluice]

I've been having some issues with UI Info Suite and i'm not exactly sure what to do about it

[lime scarab]

Can we get your smapi log?

[civic violet]

I assume it is not in fact an empty folder?

[robust sluice]

i'm not exactly sure what that is sorry

[robust sluice]

nope

[lime scarab]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[gaunt gust]

can you screenshot the inside of the UIInfoSuite2 folder

[robust sluice]

https://smapi.io/log/c06c34273c064a59b11b2ab5ee07bfec

i'm not sure if this is what you're looking for

[lime scarab]

inside that folder

[gaunt gust]

one more directory - can you screenshot the inside of that folder

[gaunt gust]

hum, that looks right

[lime scarab]

Can I see what is in the i18n folder?

[gaunt gust]

ah, I see

[robust sluice]

this is everything

[gaunt gust]

you have a random folder named UI Info Suite\i18n

somewhere

[lime scarab]

Oh yeah you do

[gaunt gust]

you're showing us Mods\UIInfoSuite2\, which seems to be a functioning mod

[lime scarab]

UI Info Suite is the "mod" smapi wants to load but can't

[robust sluice]

Where would it be?

just

in my downloads somewhere i assume

[lime scarab]

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods somewhere there

[gaunt gust]

Mods\UI Info Suite\i18n

[robust sluice]

ah i think i found it

[hot zinc]

any ideas on why convenient chests would say it loaded but its not showing under the generic mod config menu, and craft from chest doesnt seem to work, but hitting Q to stash does?

[robust sluice]

do i just delete it?

[lime scarab]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[gaunt gust]

For code mods - you have to integrate with GMCM

it's not automatic

maybe they just didn't

[gaunt gust]

yeah, you should be able to

[robust sluice]

alright let me try again

ah it's working now

ty!

[hot zinc]

https://smapi.io/log/cf66724daa1c4b79893ab5fcb8d5bbfd

[civic violet]

@gaunt gust Changing the folder name fixed it, thanks!

[lime scarab]

so you may wanna think about updating mods, but what does the config.json for the convenient chests look like?

[gaunt gust]

convient chests probably doesn't have a gmcm inteogration

[lime scarab]

that too

[gaunt gust]

GMCM is actually relatively new

older mods often don't have it

[hot zinc]

im updating the out of date ones now

[gaunt gust]

like, it's standard now, but, like, that's relatively new

[lime scarab]

can I see your config.json for the convenient chests?

[hot zinc]

yes

{
"CategorizeChests": true,
"StashToExistingStacks": true,
"StashToNearbyChests": true,
"StashRadius": 5,
"StashKey": "Q",
"StashButton": "RightStick",
"StashAnywhere": false,
"StashAnywhereToExistingStacks": false,
"StashAnywhereToFridge": true,
"StashAnywhereKey": "Z",
"CraftFromChests": true,
"CraftRadius": 5
}

was standing next to the chest with wood, couldnt craft a chest

[lime scarab]

are you using the unofficial update?

[hot zinc]

i was

[lime scarab]

I mean config wise everything looks correct...I'm at a loss otherwise... @gaunt gust you got any input?

[hot zinc]

im re importing the chests mod to see if it fixes

[gaunt gust]

shrugs

it's on unofficials?

I'd move to Better Chests personally

for the record, "unofficials" typically means "we got it to compile again" and little more than that

[hot zinc]

i was using that, but something wasnt working right for me, i know fury had it fixed but for me it still doesnt work

oh it was categorizing chests - i tried putting a mini shiping bin and a chest. chest only allowing cotton balls and the shipping bin only allowing thread. it woudl pull cotton to the looms, and the rest of them go to the shipping bin

[gaunt gust]

to be honest - once a mod is on unofficials and the original author isn't around, it;s hard to get support

[hot zinc]

im talking about better chest

[gaunt gust]

yeah I'm not sure about that either

(fury is moving at the moment)

ask on the nexus page maybe

[hot zinc]

im in no rush, i just moved the bin one tile away and manually move it for now :p

we have some private messages going on for it so im sure itll be fixed eventually

[lucid thicket]

i dunno why, but everytime i try to install sampi, it keeps sayin my antivirus deleted a file!

hopefully, yall dont get this too much

and if you do

pls still help me

[hot zinc]

can you make an exception in your AV

[lucid thicket]

a what?

[hot zinc]

like tell your antivirus to disregard anytthing that smapi does

[lucid thicket]

how do i do that?

[hot zinc]

entirely depends on what youre using

[lucid thicket]

and what does that mean?

[hot zinc]

what antivirus are you using

[lucid thicket]

windows

[hot zinc]

windows built in..?

[lucid thicket]

uhhh

oh

uhh

i think the problem is.... the file's gone and i can't get it

either that or my pc's dumd

dumb

its missing the .dll file

[lament prairie]

you need that one

you need to redownload most likely

[lucid thicket]

oh

ok

i tried redownloading it and.....

it still didnt work

[hoary bane]

You should turn off your anti virus

Then redownload

Alternatively, whitelist smapi

[lucid thicket]

how?

[hoary bane]

What are you using?

For an antiviral,

[hot zinc]

hes using windows defender.

Can't you toggle that from the taskbar? 🤔

[quick gazelle]

if you hit the windows button and type "windows defender" in the search bar at the bottom, it comes up

[hot zinc]

youll want to reply to king so he gets the notification

@lucid thicket

[hoary bane]

@lucid thicket double tag

?

[hoary bane]

Do that

[lucid thicket]

and

uhh

i forgot how to turn my antivirus off

[hoary bane]

Did you do the one they said?

[lucid thicket]

which one?

[hoary bane]

[hoary bane]

This

[lucid thicket]

yes

[hoary bane]

Open it, it should be somewhere there

[lucid thicket]

well

[hoary bane]

In the settings of that, could be in one of the tabs, idk

[lucid thicket]

which one do i turn off?

[hoary bane]

...the antivirus?

[lucid thicket]

uhh

[quick gazelle]

yeah I'm out

[lucid thicket]

there's the firewall and the virus and threats... which one do i turn off?

[hoary bane]

^

[lucid thicket]

but...

the virus and threats one?

or.....

[hoary bane]

...yes

[lucid thicket]

ok
