how the fuck do i balance these and make them distinct at the same time

[fossil temple]

Got me there, could just steal the stats of a existing weapon and tweak it a bit.

[narrow forge]

i mean yeah sure i can just steal the galaxy sword's stats and alter them slightly, maybe add an enchantment

but the fuck do i do for the rending scissors

wait fuck i have to make a mod page after this 💀

uhhhh @fossil temple how do i credit you for basically 99.9% of the spritework lmao

[fossil temple]

You put it in the permissions under other credits, I have a nexus page with the same username too.

[nimble jewel]

is it possible that a mod I installed automatically gives me statue of perfection? I'm in Y3 and my farm is.. eh. and I went to place a diamond in grandpas shrine (never done it before) to see where exactly im at and I got the statue and i cant put a diamond in so.

I dont have any cheat mods or anything or is that just something mods do™️

[lament prairie]

Perfection doesn’t care how pretty your farm is

You can use the checker to see what’s up

[vague sand]

hello, im not sure where to get help for this issue but im using stardew with SMAPI so i came here o.o

[nimble jewel]

checker? :o sorry I havent played in a while </3

[lament prairie]

It’s a website

https://mouseypounds.github.io/stardew-checkup/

[nimble jewel]

oh ok thank you very much! :D

[lavish marlin]

We should change that.

[lament prairie]

Good luck developing a metric for beauty 😛

[lavish marlin]

we'll just use an AI

[narrow forge]

could you give me the link because im ape brain and dont know how to actually find other users

[mental hornet]

what other mods do i have to install ?

[narrow forge]

Stardew Hack for Bigger Backpacks it seems

no clue how you dont have Content Patcher assuming thats whats missing for SCC

[mental hornet]

would i place the stardewhack & content patcher inside the mod folder or does it matter

[narrow forge]

i would assume that matters

[mental hornet]

i figured it out

thank u again !

[paper magnet]

I've downloaded and installed mods, how do I enable them? I downoaded from nexus and am playing on steam

You don't need to enable them. Just unpack them and move then into ./mods

[willow imp]

Hi! I came across this mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2677

And was wondering if you guys can tell me if it still works or your experiences using it

[cursive crag]

I've never used it personally so I can't help there but I can point you towards the unofficial update https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/unofficial-mod-updates.2096/page-47#post-29677

[willow imp]

Tysm 🙂

[dire fractal]

Are the hands on the animals, a mod or a feature on the game?

[cedar lark]

do you have UI2 installed?

pretty sure thats what it is anyways

[dire fractal]

I just saw it on a youtube video

[cedar lark]

ah well yeah that should be UI2

[eternal ravine]

Yeah. Ui info suite 2 gives the option to highlight animals yet to be pet

I can also see medieval buildings and elles coop animals 👀

[solemn hawk]

hmm i'm getting the following smapi error about the void pendant replacer mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5881), specifically about an issue with the manifest.json; seems like there's a typo that it can't parse?

[SMAPI] These mods could not be added to your game.
[SMAPI] - [CP] Void Pendant Replacer because parsing its manifest failed:
Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: Can't parse JSON file at E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods[CP] Void Pendant Replacer\manifest.json.
Technical details: Cannot deserialize the current JSON object (e.g. {"name":"value"}) into type 'System.String[]' because the type requires a JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) to deserialize correctly.
To fix this error either change the JSON to a JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) or change the deserialized type so that it is a normal .NET type (e.g. not a primitive type like integer, not a collection type like an array or List<T>) that can be deserialized from a JSON object. JsonObjectAttribute can also be added to the type to force it to deserialize from a JSON object.

guessing there's a typo in the updatekeys line?

it looks like this in the json:
"UpdateKeys": { "Nexus": "5881" },

ohhh okay i think i've got it, comparing it to other manifests it should look like this, right?
"UpdateKeys": ["Nexus:5881"],

aaaand that fixed it! sorry for wall of text everyone, i'll go let the mod author know

[cedar lark]

!log please

!log

huh

oh no the bot is dead

hold on

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

[solemn hawk]

don't worry bud it's all good, i've sorted it now, thanks tho!

[cedar lark]

alrighty, no problem

[solemn hawk]

turns out the modder just had a typo in their manifest.json, i'm letting them know rn

[spare relic]

Will the Wedding Reception Event from Ridgeside work with spouses from other mods, like SVE? Or is it Exclusively Ridgeside and Vanilla Marriage Candidates

[cedar lark]

I think it might work not 100% sure

however are you using a custom farm?

like Grandpa's or Immersive?

[spare relic]

Grandpas

[cedar lark]

because I saw this notice while trying to look it up

[spare relic]

I've already turned off the Setting.

[cedar lark]

Then I'd give it a shot, if there are issues I'd suggest maybe asking on their official discord as well

[spare relic]

Ok

Thank you

[cedar lark]

no prob

[solemn hawk]

hey folks, getting some weird dialogue at the flower dance, guessing it's a mod conflict or something, no errors in the log. i can talk to everyone normally once, but if i try to talk to any of the romancable npcs a second time, this text pops up. to be clear, none of them are at the right level to dance with anyway, so it's not really a huge issue, but i'm guessing it's not supposed to be happening?

here's my log: https://smapi.io/log/c1d2498b72604587a638e5eeacf117b8

[robust bison]

it looks like it's custom fixed dialogue

[solemn hawk]

ooh i did just update that

just a few hours ago

hmm

[robust bison]

maybe try reverting first?

[solemn hawk]

will do! thanks!

[clear eagle]

I'm pretty sure @verbal elbow mentioned something about CFD, don't know if it is fixed or not

[verbal elbow]

are you using platonic partners and friendships?

[solemn hawk]

yep!

[verbal elbow]

do you have the latest version of CFD?

oh and

are you platonically partnered to elliott?

oh but it's happening with all of them?

[solemn hawk]

yep, latest version, and nope, he's not set to platonic and i'm not partnered with anyone, this is just in the first year. also, everyone else IS set to platonic, but this dialogue appears for all of them

[verbal elbow]

that's probably not via ppaf's CFD patch for the flower dance then, because that only affects the characters you are platonically partnered to

but it could still be CFD related

aedenthorn was recently kind enough to update CFD to re-add support for my edits to those lines

it did work fine when i tested it

but maybe it's conflicting with some other mod?

[solemn hawk]

yeah cfd is the most recent mod i updated, i have the version from like 8 hours ago so i'll try the previous one maybe? but i'm guessing yeah it could be a conflict

[shy orbit]

hm, is it possible to see from the log what mods are editing the lines? i don't know how they are stored by the game

[cedar lark]

would patch summery do that?

!patchsummery

I can't remember the command hold on

[robust bison]

!patchsummary

[native dragon]

Can you do these steps to provide more info?

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

[cedar lark]

ah ofc a not e

I'm dumb lol

[verbal elbow]

it might depend on if the mod in question uses logname, otherwise you might just have to sift through everything that patches StringsFromCSFiles or that patches Dialogue/Character files via CFD

[shy orbit]

eh so can they be stored in both of those assets or something?

[verbal elbow]

well, if you use CFD then you would make the character-specific patches by a patch to that character's Dialogue file

but normally it's just a single line in StringsForCSFiles that is used for all characters

[shy orbit]

ah i see. well, it's possible to check at least

[solemn hawk]

alrighty, i tried reverting to the previous version of cfd, and now they all say "-1 Null" as their second line, BUT i can click on them a THIRD time and get the dialogue for asking them to dance

[verbal elbow]

the thing is, CFD alone wouldn't be doing it

at least i don't think it would

do you have another mod that affects the flower dance lines?

cause my guess would be that it's an interaction between CFD and such a mod if anything

aedenthorn would know better though

[solemn hawk]

hm, i'll try taking out some potential ones, i have kelly's flower dance mod but i don't THINK that affects the dialogue, and i do have a few dialogue mods so i'll take em out too to test. thank you for your help, regardless

[verbal elbow]

good luck!

[shy orbit]

!patchsummary you can also do this if it doesn't

[native dragon]

@solemn hawk 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.

[solemn hawk]

oh yes, sorry i totally forgot to check that, will do! thank you!

alrighty, i'm back on the most recent cfd, took out a couple of mods (tho i'm thinking i need to take out more of the dialogue ones, i didn't realise i had So Many lol), and i'm still getting the weird dialogue that i reported in my first post.
here's the patch summary log:
https://smapi.io/log/9d12f854517946dea96ffb1346adec07

[solemn hawk]

okay after testing with many combinations of mods, i'm pretty sure this is cfd causing this, and the only mod i have that requires cfd is ppaf. soooo i guess i'm just gonna take those out for the event and then toss em back in after. thanks to everyone who tried to help me figure this out!

[clear eagle]

Can I use SAAT with CM?

[shy orbit]

yep

doesn't seem to be any conflicts

[dusty spruce]

(It seems to conflict for me, my audio driver seems to restart whenever I start and close the game with both CM and SAAT at once)

But otherwise no problems, just this annoyance

[shy orbit]

hm, doesn't happen for me (lucky, because at least restarting the audio system crashes the game if it's running)

[cedar lark]

i had that issue with terraria i think, whenever i would switch from headphones to speakers

it would crash the game

[dusty spruce]

If I have any music running in the background when starting up the game with SAAT and CM, it pauses for a sec, and jumps a bit back, then resumes

Same when quitting

I assume that’s a driver restart

Either that or it’s because the music I play is DRM’d (Apple Music)

[dusky canyon]

doesn't happen with mine, but I use spotify

[steep plaza]

SMAPI says that the UI Info Suite mod isnt compatible..are there any other mods i can use to replace it?

[dusty spruce]

UI Info Suite 2, found on Github

[steep plaza]

thank you :D

[worthy canyon]

by any chance has there been any updated mods to get rid of the spouse room?

[formal tapir]

If I download the “Farm cave hot spring” will it break my game?

Since I did not download it

[torpid fox]

What do you mean?

and what do you mean by break?

[formal tapir]

Corrupt my save I mean

Since Im adding a new area for an alr existing farm

[torpid fox]

Farmcave mods are unlikely to corrupt your saves

BUT

[formal tapir]

Make a backup?

[torpid fox]

if your existing cave has furniture in it then they will be displaced when you install hot spring cave

in that case just use NoClip to move the furniture

(since some of them will likely be out of bounds)

[formal tapir]

What about forage? Since I use the fruit bats

[torpid fox]

It will still spawn

inside the hot spring cave

on both levels

[formal tapir]

What about existing forage. Will it corrupt it?

[torpid fox]

nope, they will just stay where they spawned until you pick them up

[formal tapir]

Sorry for being a bother again but how do I do it in grandpa’s farm?

Grandpa’s farm doesnt have a farm cave.tbin file

Do i just need to place the hot spring farm cave files in one of the files?

[torpid fox]

no, just download the general CP version of the mod (shown in image) and extract under Mods folder

[formal tapir]

Ok thank you!!!

[arctic flare]

So

I have a question since it's my first time that I tried to add mods to Stardew and idk the compatibility with some of them

Do the expansion and the ridge village go together? Or it will break my game??

[clear eagle]

Expansion?

Oh, you mean SVE

No they work together

[arctic flare]

Hmm interesting

I see myself overloading Stardew in the end and crashing it lol

[dusky canyon]

if it does, most of the time just taking the log and putting it here will fix it xp

[unborn pine]

Hi could I get some help with my mod I'm having trouble with?

[shy orbit]

!ask

[native dragon]

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

[unborn pine]

can i give my error log here?

[neat plaza]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[unborn pine]

https://smapi.io/log/0599f9afd80944159fa45a2e9d1aaaeb

It is paritees bfav. I cannot get it to work. Smapi keeps asking for me to download the spacecore support but im not sure where thats at.

[neat plaza]

oh cool someone using my mod

[shy orbit]

you can find a compatible version of bfav and some other mods with smapi.io/mods

it would be also good to check these kind of red errors on the log Two content packs want to load the 'Maps/Cellar' asset (Hideaway Cellar and TunnelSystem). and remove one of the mods, because they are incompatible (unless they have config options to help with it)

Fetk and tool upgrade delivery service also apparently break mail

[unborn pine]

yeah my mail is broke I was about to uninstall those mods. I have installed the app from smapi.io/mods and it still will not let me buy animals if thats installed.

3.3.1 or 1.4 version

I'm using Moddrop I love it so far that is my biggest problem I would like to have farm animals I tried fixing it with every unofficial version I could find.

[shy orbit]

is the problem that the modded animal doesn't appear in the shop?

[unborn pine]

No I cant buy animals at all lol

not even vanilla

It shows the shop supplies and buy animals but when I click buy animals it just keeps looping back to purchase animals.

[lament prairie]

So, based on your log you don't have the BFAV mod installed

This might be related to using Moddrop

I have no idea how moddrop works, but it can cause problems

You also appear to have removed East Scarpe recently

I am seeing an error related to opening the animals menu

It's an NRE at StardewValley.Utility.getPurchaseAnimalStock_PatchedBy<elbe.AnimalShopConditions>()

Entoarox Modding Utilities is also have problems

There seems to be some kind of problem in Animal Shop Conditions, maybe you didn't configure the json for it?

I'm not familiar with Animal Shop Conditions so I can't really say why it's erroring

[unborn pine]

I'm working on these now ill try and run the game see how it works when I'm done might need help again lol.

[candid loom]

[unique veldt]

does anyone have a mod that makes slingshots consume no ammo ( that works, theres an not up to date one on nexus)

[candid loom]

Would someone be able to help? I installed the newer custom fixed dialogue, but there's mods I have that aren't registering.

[lament prairie]

You are missing one of the PPJA mods "paradigmnomad.morefood" which I think might be More Recipes?

Make sure to get the JA version, not the DGA version

[eternal ravine]

Yap. It's more recipes

At least EMR will also need some other dependencies so you might want to install the PPJA main package.

I think you also got your content folder copied into your mods folder or something like that?

[lament prairie]

No, that's probably an XNB mod

[eternal ravine]

Also an option

[formal ether]

hmm I might need help, got any suggestions?

[lament prairie]

Post an actual log with the link

SAAT and ShopTileFramework

[finite linden]

Anyone know what mod might be responsible for these (circled - they are everywhere in all maps):

[formal ether]

I know how to unzip, did I forget to do it?

[lament prairie]

Conflict with solstice winter star maybe??

[eternal ravine]

You got zip files there

[formal ether]

ye cause I remove them when I am finished with updating them

Ive already unziped copys

[lament prairie]

I don't see EML and SAAT there either

In addition to the part where a bunch seem to still be zipped

[formal ether]

uhm, whats the full name of the EML and SAAT btw

[eternal ravine]

Extra map layers

[formal ether]

ah alrightty

[eternal ravine]

And stardew audio API or something like that

[formal ether]

I found saat btw

[edgy parrot]

So I can't find Clint or Gus. I tried using the SMAPI console to warp to them and it just says "Could not find valid character"

[hoary bane]

Extra map layers, SAAT audio api and toolkit, Shop tile framework.

[lament prairie]

iiiiiinteresting

[gaunt gust]

they're gone!

[lament prairie]

Do you have NPC map locations?

[edgy parrot]

I do

[gaunt gust]

Clint finally has a new job he doesn't hate and he moved out of town

[edgy parrot]

It's saying Clint is at his shop and Gus is at the saloon

[gaunt gust]

are you playing single or multiplayer

[edgy parrot]

[lament prairie]

which debug command were you using?

[formal ether]

ah okayyy^^

[lament prairie]

So when it warps you to Haley, what do you see?

[edgy parrot]

Haley's house, in the southeast corner

I'll try restarting my game

[formal ether]

Plus some of your mods are due an update ^^

!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. :)

[hoary bane]

Updates ie; Animal chooser, Child Age Up, Farm Expansion, Sundrop City

[BFAV] Puppy looks broken, a folder named "Skin" I'd assume isn't supposed to be there.

!xnbzola Likely an Xnb

[native dragon]

An XNB mod replaces some of your game's .xnb files to change the game (unlike newer mods that go in your Mods folder). This is an older type of mod that's no longer recommended, and can cause a number of issues. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods for help using them (and a list of alternatives using Content Patcher), and https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files for help unpacking & editing them (including for use with Content Patcher).

i do use compatibility...

which version of MacOS are you running?

Can someone help me? This happened while trying to download smapi to windows

[midnight shard]

im guessing now🥲

[cedar lark]

Assuming you didn't try to install it via a mod manager like vortex, you might want to make sure your antivirus didn't eat the files

[midnight shard]

thank you all for your help

[white goblet]

How do I get the file back?

[cedar lark]

Redownload Smapi

[white goblet]

Won’t the same thing happen again?

[hoary bane]

Either Whitelist smapi or turn off your antivirus

[cedar lark]

You can turn off your antivirus or set up an exclusion for it possibly

[dusky canyon]

did you try to run the installer from the inside of the zip/rar?

[neat plaza]

you need to unzip it

What do I click on?

It’s sending just slowly

[dusky canyon]

I can't see if that's still zipped

[white goblet]

What do I take a picture of?

[hoary bane]

T-taskbar at the side?

[dusky canyon]

did you read Governor's message

[hoary bane]

[hoary bane]

[gaunt gust]

yeah, the earliest version of MacOS that can reliably run NET 5.0 (which is needed both for the game and SMAPI) is 10.15

[white goblet]

That’s what mine looks like now

[dim fox]

@gaunt gust @frozen sage (I know you're busy today vert) any ideas you 2?

[neat plaza]

youre still in the zip

[gaunt gust]

Vert is a nice person. Atra is not a nice person. Atra hates being pinged

[dusky canyon]

that was for ][

[white goblet]

😣

I don’t understand anything

[dusky canyon]

this

for you!

download either 7zip or winrar

[dim fox]

sorry atra

[white goblet]

This is too hard

[gaunt gust]

I'm going to be honest: I don't do tech support anymore, and never did tech-support on-call.

[white goblet]

I don’t understand where I find the zip or what I click on

How do I just delete everything

[dim fox]

all good atra, i don't expect anyone to help me. none of you are obligated to.

[dusky canyon]

1. download winrar or 7zip
2. double click the .zip / .rar you downloaded
3. do what I do in my gif

[white goblet]

My screen doesn’t look like urs at all I’ve given up

[dusky canyon]

it doesn't have to look like mine*

[white goblet]

I have to download another thing just to find a missing file?

[dusky canyon]

no-

[dire fractal]

marnie appears at what day to give your pet? i'm trying to see if pokefy and my psyduck cat mod are compatible

[dusky canyon]

when you download mods/files they are often in a .rar or .zip (compressed) and to use them, you need to take them out

[dusky canyon]

which is what is said here

[white goblet]

I’m sorry I closed all my tabs and deleted smapi

[dusky canyon]

alright

[white goblet]

Ty tho

[white goblet]

20th of spring

[white goblet]

Or make 1000g I think that activates the cutscene also

[dire fractal]

ok - so the noises are different

but it's still the cat

i'll try to troubleshoot more

[misty thicket]

you know, I don't think I did that

I'll check in a sec

[dire fractal]

i think the problem is that both mods have an option to change the cat model, and i don't know how to prioritize the psyduck mod

[lament prairie]

Add a false dependency

.q 5308

[devout pumice]

[#5308] "It is possible to set a dependency in the manifest.json of a mod you want to load last / win a conflict. See more details here https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Debugging#If_you_want_to_change_the_load_order_of_2_mods_(set_dependencies)" - @royal arrow (03 Feb 2021 @ 10:57:28 PM UTC)

[misty thicket]

quick question with Aggressive Acorns

if MaxShadedGrowthStage is 5, is that full growth?

[lament prairie]

Try lookup anything

[dim fox]

what dat

[lament prairie]

Turn on tile information

It’s a mod

[dim fox]

i just saved my game so i am in a position to like...do mod work

[lament prairie]

You can see if any of those tiles have weird properties

[dim fox]

it's called "lookup anything" ?

[lament prairie]

Yes, that’s the mod name

[dim fox]

ah, made by our very own pathos

[lament prairie]

Yup!

[dim fox]

alright, it's a lead. thank you for the help elizabeth, i will report back with my findings (if it's a tile problem i have Tiled and am willing to learn how to fix it)

[dire fractal]

i'm just a little confused, the sprite itself didn't load, but the sound was prioritized?

i tried loading my game again and getting up to the point where you adopt your animal, and although it was the same cat, the psyduck sounds played

[zealous plank]

Hi guys, I'm installing SDV Expanded for the first time, just wanting to use this mod. I downloaded it and its dependencies from Moddrop, now still getting these messages when I launch. Any help on how to fix or is there just not a problem?

[dire fractal]

i dont know how i'd make the dependency if this is the case

[zealous plank]

also I just launched the game and made a new farm and it doesn't look like anything has changed from vanilla, not sure if I'm missing something here...

[oblique wing]

looks like you’re missing one more mod: Expanded Preconditions Utility

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6529

just download the latest version and extract it to your stardew valley mods folder

(if there’s any other errors after installing this it would be best to upload a log;
use !log for instructions cuz my phone can’t handle loading all the text)

[zealous plank]

Okay that got everything working perfectly

[oblique wing]

k nice

[zealous plank]

Thank you

[unborn pine]

can someone explain the content packs i have read all the info on it but im not sure how to start after creating my subfolder

[cedar lark]

Hope you get it working

[dire fractal]

okay - i just need some confirmation for this

if i want to prioritize a mod, i have to edit the manifest/make a dependency, but i have no idea how, i keep reading the wiki but i'm very lost

[dim fox]

@lament prairie i got lookup anything, but what am i supposed to be checking each tile for?

[somber lantern]

Hey, I am having trouble with Stardew valley expanded.. all my structures are out of place on the new farm.

I added the mod to a pre-existing save, and followed all the steps

[dusty spruce]

yeah, you don't do that.

the buildings, you can move via Robin

anything else - you should first pick up, save, THEN add the mods

then place down on a new farm

[shy orbit]

or use noclip mode mod. and reset terrain features

[somber lantern]

Yea I mostly did that, but the shopping bin for instance is stuck

[shy orbit]

!rtf

[native dragon]

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

[somber lantern]

Can i Break that manually?

[dusty spruce]

the shopping bin is also a building

kind-of

it's movable at Robin iirc

[somber lantern]

omg

[dusty spruce]

*shipping

[somber lantern]

never mind then, its just a matter of going to robin

annoying thing is i upgraded my house just before installing the mod

haha

[dire fractal]

why does the grass look like this when i've downloaded vibrant pastoral recolors and simple foliage

[dusty spruce]

if you ever have any weird issues, please always:

!log

[native dragon]

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

[dire fractal]

kaykay

[cedar lark]

Yeah, might be a conflict or something

[dire fractal]

https://smapi.io/log/f178a6cf850b4124b4a9f7a6fd2f3599

[dusty spruce]

unrelated, but you should probably look into those

maybe minus the last one, if you don't want automation

[shy orbit]

more grass changes how the grass is drawn i think?

so CP mods that target the grass might not work

[dire fractal]

ohhh

should i remove more grass then

[shy orbit]

it probably has similar content packs for grass

[dusty spruce]

or use packs specifically for More Grass (because it looks like it's a framework)

[dire fractal]

kk

thank you

[dusty spruce]

those are listed on the More Grass page

[dire fractal]

do i put those packs in the more grass folder

or should i just leave them in the mods folder

[dusty spruce]

just in the mods folder

i think.

would be weird otherwise

[cedar lark]

I've been having a weird issue with automate and ppja occasionally, I have the dependency mod and will put items in a chest attached to the machine but sometimes it just refuses to intake items

[dim fox]

hey @dusty spruce if you're not super busy is there any chance you could help me with my issue i'm having?

[cedar lark]

If I manually put the item in it will spit it into the chest though

[shy orbit]

i noticed that the chest priority options don't work with (pfm)automate anymore too

[dusty spruce]

my Automate used to just get frozen... like, it wouldn't take out items out of the machines. i had to take them out manually, then it was working again. never figured out the issue

[dusty spruce]

just ask the question for the whole channel to see?

[candid loom]

Do I remember there being a mom that gives you little arrows on the side of the screen that points out where foragables are?

[shy orbit]

could be any amount of incompatibilities behind that problem though

[dusty spruce]

unless it's related to one of my mods

[cursive crag]

that's a skill perk

[dim fox]

i did, elizabeth was helping, but she vanished (not madge)

[candid loom]

Ok. It's been a while since I played. 🤣

[cursive crag]

there IS a mod to make that perk better!

[dusty spruce]

the issue i was having was completely random, most of the time it worked, but sometimes it was just getting stuck

(for vanilla items too)

[dim fox]

BASICALLY i'm trying to move my slime hutch to this one area of my custom farm, the space was even perfectly shaped and intended for the slime hutch to go there, but when i tried to build or move the slime hutch to that position on the map, it wouldn't let me. Elizabeth suggested to get "lookup anything" to try and find a wonky tile, but idk what i'm looking for.

[cedar lark]

It's mostly Wasabi for some reason

[dusty spruce]

i don't use Lookup Anything, so i wouldn't know

[cedar lark]

No errors in my log which is weird

[dusty spruce]

anyway you'll probably have to go by gut for this one

[shy orbit]

really check every tile and see if any of them look different from the others i guess

[dusty spruce]

just check all of the tiles at the place you wanted to put the Slime Hutch at

[dim fox]

that's what i've been doing. i

i'll do it again if i have to, but i don't know what like...INFO i'm looking for in the lookup menu

[dusty spruce]

also

"it wouldn't let me"

what does that mean exactly?

[dim fox]

let me show you

[dim fox]

@dusty spruce

[dusty spruce]

usually it will show the tiles in red

[dim fox]

USUALLY IT DOES. not this time

[dusty spruce]

if there's anything not letting you build there

[dim fox]

tried both constructing it AND moving it to that location. wouldn't let me both times.

[dusty spruce]

have you tried moving it anywhere else?

maybe you can't move it at all

which honestly would make more sense

[dim fox]

yes, i can move it to other places

wait i just had a sort of idea

[dusty spruce]

okay... did you post a log? specifically one made after trying to move it?

[dim fox]

just there is something wonky with that back corner

[dim fox]

i did not. would you like me to

[dusty spruce]

can't hurt

did you look at the console at least?

maybe it was erroring out

[dim fox]

for some reason the console no longer pops up when i launch the game

[dusty spruce]

now that's weird

[dim fox]

like i did this thing where I renamed stardewModdingApi to just "stardew valley" and changed the default stardew valley exe to stardew valley-original so my steam would launch the exe called "Stardew Valley". regardless i don't think that has anything to do with this issue, because i have been able to build things in that top corner. I made a shed there. so there has to be a fucky tile SOMEWHERE in this top corner

[dusty spruce]

you do realize you don't have to do that?

SMAPI installer literally has instructions on how to make Steam launch SMAPI instead

anyway, not much else i can think of without a log

[gaunt gust]

those instructions are Windows only. On Mac/Linux/Gamepass SMAPI just replaces the StardewValley executable.

also the log is always generated even if you disable the console

[dim fox]

its the one consistent way i've found to make it so that i don't have controller issues when I launch the game

[dusty spruce]

i kind of assumed they're using Windows, considering:

1. it's a laptop
2. they recorded a video with their phone; a Linux user would probably manage to record their screen instead

ofc 1 isn't much of a point, i actually installed Linux on my gf's mother's laptop, because Windows just wasn't doing it on that old piece of crap

[dim fox]

i am literally using a 2013 macbook pro

[dim fox]

exactly, i know where to look up the log

[gaunt gust]

"A linux user would have installed five different programs that claim to record the screen before giving up and going outside for once"

except it's raining like crazy right now, so that's a problem.

[dire fractal]

why isnt this centered i'm gonna kms

[dusty spruce]

are all other menus centered?

[dire fractal]

yuh.

[dusty spruce]

i don't see any other weird mods in your log either

might be worth to just ping blueberry

[dire fractal]

@true dock

[cursive crag]

perhaps it centers over the stove vs the middle of the screen

[dusky canyon]

I have that sometimes when changing from fullscreen to windowed or resizing windowed

[dim fox]

AHA

https://tenor.com/view/faker-sonic-adventure-sonic-sonic-the-hedgehog-i-found-you-gif-15404405

OK

i have discovered that this point right here for some reason, it's not buildable, but for SOME REASON a door cannot be placed there

[dusty spruce]

try opening Lookup Anything on that tile?

[dim fox]

i tried placing my shed EVERYWHERE around this area. smaller building, but still a structure, and i could place it everywhere except for the door right there

[cursive crag]

mines also centered over the stove, I just never even noticed 😂

[dim fox]

i did, and it says this

[glad zephyr]

Hey guys. I installed custom walls and furniture as well as a content pack for it, but it's not in the catalogue....

[dire fractal]

oh...

[glad zephyr]

The content pack is definitely for CWF it's in the name of the mod, it's just not showing up.

[dire fractal]

okay thank u

[dim fox]

it's not buildable, meanwhile all the other tiles on that row are. it just so happens that THAT TILE (13, 11) is where the door for the slime hutch ends up

[dusty spruce]

i can't see anything weird in that, but like i said, i don't use Lookup Anything (also i generally don't make maps), so i wouldn't really know

[dim fox]

and the slime hutch doesn't even get placed on that tile at all

[dusty spruce]

also i think this menu is scrollable?

[dim fox]

oh it is, but i have the debug tile ticked on so it's just a LOT of text that i don't think is useful here

[glad zephyr]

Okay now I'm suuuuuper confused. How do people add custom wallpapers now!?

[dim fox]

@dusty spruce so now i just need to find out how to use....content patcher i guess to change the property of this one coordinate. because it is LITERALLY a middle finger to the layout of this map. normally I ask vert for help but he is busy rn. any idea who else might be able to help?

[cursive crag]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9246

[dusty spruce]

i'm not sure WHY this tile is not buildable

unless that is figured out, nothing will help

what i CAN suggest though

is maybe using the Slim Hutch mod to make the Slime Hutch smaller

so the door ends up being in a different spot

[dim fox]

not a terrible idea

[dusty spruce]

although i believe that mod doesn't really work for existing Slime Hutches, only newly built ones

[glad zephyr]

Alright thanks I'll just grab one that replaces with this and override the images I guess lol.

[cursive crag]

that's what I'd do 😂

[glad zephyr]

Alternate texture mods are weird lol I just want a new object

[dire fractal]

I used this map too, had to edit that area (and a few others) in Tiled to get it to work.

[dim fox]

i don't want to use tiled b/c for some reason when i open tiled it breaks the pathing references for the references texture files

and i literally CAN'T fix them b/c mac

like me and vert worked through this a LOT like 2 days ago, and we got to the part where we almost fixed it properly until i had to rename the files with a . infront of them and my mac was just like 🖕

[dire fractal]

RIP

Might be worth looking for another map then?

Or you could just not build anything there

[lament prairie]

The way to do this on a Mac: command shift period

Then it will still ask you if you’re sure

But it will let you

[drifting latch]

i need help

it says that i didnt extract even though i did

for smapi

[lament prairie]

The only actual limitations on a Mac I am aware of: visual studio hot reload no one knows how to work, and the audio unpacker doesn’t work.

[lament prairie]

Screenshot the error?

[scarlet spoke]

Does PPJA have a machine that produces Wild Bait? Not sure where to find info on the PPJA Machines

[lament prairie]

https://mouseypounds.github.io/ppja-ref/

[cedar lark]

if it does lemme know

wild bait is pretty good

currently watching people lose their minds trying to buy ps5's

[coral pike]

is using mods still a massive pain where mods are splintered across 40 million websites due to breaking every update and tend to need manual file editing and etc? I know they're all still super high quality and lovely to use despite that

[late nebula]

It really just depends.

Right now things are good.

I imagine 1.6 will go smoothly when it comes out kinda like 1.5.5 did. But there is always that one person who has a framework who goes MIA.

[coral pike]

oh theres ANOTHER update coming?

[late nebula]

It'll be a while but yeah

[coral pike]

like what a year or so?

[late nebula]

There's no dates.

[coral pike]

i mean estimated and etc

[late nebula]

There are no estimated dates either

[coral pike]

i just dont want to spend 2 days installing like 125 mods and then have them all break in a month

[late nebula]

Personally I think it won't be till after June at the earliest

[coral pike]

i see

[late nebula]

And that is based on pure opinions

[coral pike]

cause ive been getting the urge to play the game again as i miss my wife tails miss the nice calm farm

[lament prairie]

Awww maythorn i think you're trustworthy

[late nebula]

Now is a good time to come back! The community is super helpful and modding is at a really good point IMO (if you do it manually )

I am not. I lie on work reports.

And my opinions are biased at best.

[lament prairie]

Hrmrmmr but by those standards we are probably all untrustworthy!

My opinions are totally biased too

[coral pike]

i use nexus mod manager for my mods unless theres a better stardew manager

well vortex i mean. i know theres one specifically for stardew but i forget the name. stardew isnt exactly super mod manager compatible but i need atleast even a glimmer of organization

[cedar lark]

you're talking about stardrop

[coral pike]

i think. that sounds familair atleast

[cedar lark]

and yeah if you can avoid it, don't use mod managers

they tend to eat files and cause issues

[coral pike]

it just gets hard sorting through 125-150 mods

[cedar lark]

well mod managers that auto update

Stardrop doesn't I think

[coral pike]

how does star drop work again. wasnt it a replacement/smapi fork or was it something that tacks onto it. its been... over a year

[cedar lark]

https://floogen.gitbook.io/stardrop/

even allows for profiles as well it seems

so you can have separate mod groups

[coral pike]

oh thats handy

i'll take a look after MvM. How much has changed since december 2020? game wise not mod wise

[dusty spruce]

would be nice if Stardrop had a more of a modern Windows 10/11 look

[lament prairie]

windows????

hmm...i think of windows as ugly

[dusty spruce]

well, i find Stardrop ugly :P

[lament prairie]

it has custom color themes

[dusty spruce]

the themes don't really help

it's just for colors

but oh well, i install manually anyway

[lament prairie]

Like for me, the stardrop thing is way prettier than windows file browser

[cedar lark]

I should look into it myself

I'm kinda tired of constantly redoing config files lol

[true dock]

whom dares ping me at 7am with love of cooking bugs

curious that the menu happens to always be centred over the stove, though i think that's just a coincidence given the kitchen is always towards the west of the house

[late nebula]

Game wise, I think all of the Ginger Island stuff was added at the end of 2020?

[cedar lark]

gotta say i really do love the mod myself

[true dock]

the menu is meant to be offset a little, though nothing all that dramatic!

[cedar lark]

getting used to slowly regenerating energy and health was rough lol

[late nebula]

And we can move beds now

[zealous plank]

okay hi again, my friend installed everything the same way I did but when he launches Stardew it doesn't pop up with a console nor recognize that he's running mods. Went ahead and downloaded SMAPI and installed it all, then extracted everything we needed to the mods folder but for whatever reason it's failing to recognize that he's running SMAPI or mods in the first place. Anything we could try?

[true dock]

i have such a love-hate eelationship with gradual hp regen hahah, it's amazing for giving yourself buffs up-front but then in the mines you've got to be so careful

[cedar lark]

did you set the launch options?

[zealous plank]

what do you mean?

[cedar lark]

yeah ive died a lot more then before

[cedar lark]

in steam, if you're using steam anyways

if you don't set the launch options right chances are you're just loading vanilla stardew valley

[dusty spruce]

Oh it’s not that I like the modern Windows UIs. I like consistency

[zealous plank]

Oh I see

Let's see

[lament prairie]

Stardrop is cross-platform though right?

[dusty spruce]

I don’t know, maybe?

Then it should probably have a custom UI for Windows and macOS, but I can see how it could be tons of work

[lament prairie]

Yeah it's cross-platform from the description

Two UIs sounds like 1.5 UIs too many

[dusty spruce]

Or at least have a CLI/framework, so people can build UIs on top of it

ILSpy does that I think?

[lament prairie]

huh, my experience from ILSpy has been far jankier than that

When I used ILSpy it would crash anytime I asked it to do anything that wasn't really easy

[dusty spruce]

I mean, the GUI part of it is separate from functionality

[lament prairie]

And also just crash sometimes when it felt like it

[dusty spruce]

And there are multiple UI backends (although they look super similar)

Backends? Frontends?

Whatever lol

[lament prairie]

some end

[dusty spruce]

Maybe I should pick up some AppKit and SwiftUI knowledge and make my own mod manager for macOS specifically

[lament prairie]

if you do, my only request is that it have some kind of log or troubleshooting commands

since vortex and moddrop both seem to lack this kind of thing

[dusty spruce]

Sure

[lament prairie]

(and stardrop has logs, when i saw that i was an instant convert to the concept)

[dusty spruce]

What kind of logs anyway?

[lament prairie]

Not sure

I just really like the concept

Peaceful asks for logs when people report bugs

And then says "ah yes I think it's this, will be fixed next release"

And I think that's beautiful

[dusty spruce]

Also uh sleep time, I was supposed to sleep like an hour ago, but the interesting discussions always start happening in the evening for me…

[lament prairie]

Ah, the curses of timezones

[coral pike]

can i get stardrop to work with nexus download/etc?

[cedar lark]

I don't think so but I haven't used it

I think nexus downloads are for their mod managers only

[coral pike]

what mods are there that add taxes and water bill for sprinklers/etc that are good

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/7566 this is what i remember being good. is it still good?

[late nebula]

From what I understand, there is a request to get access to the Nexus API by Stardrop's author, but we may have to be premium subscribers on Nexus in order to use it that way if it gets approved.

I'm actually not sure if any of the taxes mods have been updated since 1.5.5 came out. The Ferngill one was the last one I remember being good though.

[muted lagoon]

can anyone help me? it says my smapi isnt the latest but i checked many times and i dont even have another smapi that isnt the newest

[late nebula]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[coral pike]

ah i see

yeah nexus loves its premium

so much so it got rid of lifetime to keep charging people

[cursive crag]

you can always check https://smapi.io/mods which says it's fine

[cedar lark]

lifetime still exists

its just weird to get

[coral pike]

what was lifetime again?

[late nebula]

Wow glad I bought it before that (though kinda meh that I gave them money at all now that I know how shady they are)

[coral pike]

sounds familair

[cedar lark]

you have to buy their own currency to get it

I couldn't tell you how much actual money 51,500 DP is though

[coral pike]

oh

shipping taxes is hidden..

[cedar lark]

my paypal isn't linked so I can't even see how much it is

https://www.nexusmods.com/modrewards#/store/item/35

there's the link if you want more info

[muted lagoon]

https://smapi.io/log/ecb8b097009e4a87bcc9f904b64a1181

i cant find the smapi 12smth file

[late nebula]

So the game's current version is 1.5.6. Are you using 1.5.4 for any specific reason?

[cedar lark]

you have mods that need updating and an empty mod folder as well

[late nebula]

And the current version of SMAPI is 3.13.4 and you have 3.12.8.

[worthy moth]

The only reason to be on SDV 1.5.4 is if your computer does not support 64-bit

[late nebula]

I think even the legacy version will say 1.5.5.

Unless they changed that.

[worthy moth]

Yeah, but the legacy version does not support modded at all

So if you want modded SDV on a non-64-bit OS, then it has to be 1.5.4

[cursive crag]

is that a really old log or is your computer date just off?

[cedar lark]

huh didn't notice that either

[late nebula]

Oo didn't even notice that

[muted lagoon]

wym?

[cursive crag]

Log started: 2021-11-29 11:56 UTC

[gaunt gust]

Can you even buy DP?

[late nebula]

So you need to double check that your game version is the latest and run the game.

To get a new log.

[worthy moth]

You're right, that log is out of date. The versions of mods it says to update to are older than the current ones

[muted lagoon]

but i just got that log

[gaunt gust]

I thought you got DP by releasing mods and getting downloads

[cedar lark]

I think so

[late nebula]

You haven't generated a log since November.

[gaunt gust]

That's the payout - you can convert DP to dollars

[cedar lark]

oh so they pay you instead

ah my bad, i thought you bought it with paypal

[muted lagoon]

what does it mean to generate a log?

[late nebula]

To run the game successfully.

Load it up.

[cedar lark]

start the game, run a save

[late nebula]

And it will make one.

[cedar lark]

then exit to title usually

[muted lagoon]

well it isnt successfully because of that thing

[worthy moth]

Are you launching SMAPI through Steam or using another mod launcher?

[cedar lark]

I wonder then how many downloads you'd need actually

[muted lagoon]

steam

[cedar lark]

I'm not a mod maker but I'm curious

[worthy moth]

It varies based on the overall pool and how many downloads you get relative to every other mod that month

[muted lagoon]

my game doesnt even start

[late nebula]

What happens then?

[cedar lark]

ah gotcha, so you never really know how long it will take

[worthy moth]

Reset your game first to make sure your SDV installation is up to date

[gaunt gust]

Somewhere near 14k

[worthy moth]

About a month later they come back with a report on how many points you earned, once you're granted the points you can spend it

[cedar lark]

dang thats not horrible then

SVE has 3.7 million

[late nebula]

I was talking to juju...

[worthy moth]

Oops, replied to the wrong thing

[late nebula]

I couldn't care less about DP.

[worthy moth]

I wish for the day that Discord threads are actually useful

[cedar lark]

that means you do care, at least a little 😛

thanks weird al

[late nebula]

That is not what that means, but okay.

[cedar lark]

did i mishear the lyrics again? oh well

[late nebula]

What happens when you try to run the game?

[worthy moth]

Couldn't care less means there is no less amount of care. The wrong way to say it is "could care less" but they said it correctly.

[cedar lark]

Like I could care less
That means you do care
At least a little

I did mishear it, my bad

I was on a weird al kick for a while

[muted lagoon]

it opens a smapi black page with a red text that says my smapi isnt the newest one

[cedar lark]

you could try uninstalling and reinstalling with the newest one

[late nebula]

Did you manually download and extract and run the new one?

[cedar lark]

unless you've already tried that

actually do you need to uninstall smapi to update it?

[late nebula]

Nope

[cedar lark]

ah well i know now for future questions at least

[late nebula]

It's self-cleaning.

[cedar lark]

just so used to doing that for updating mods

[late nebula]

(Wish my car was self-cleaning...)

[cedar lark]

[muted lagoon]

tysm yall saved me from more hojrs of crying

[gaunt gust]

sorry I think you need the mod Free Love for that

[muted lagoon]

I LOVE YOU GUYS

[worthy moth]

I'm spoken for by Penny

[late nebula]

I'll let my husband know how you feel about me.

[muted lagoon]

[late nebula]

Lmao

Just joking

[worthy moth]

[muted lagoon]

but ty guys i love you

[cedar lark]

this movie was released 12 years ago but there doesn't seem to be a way to watch it

even the wiki article says its an upcoming movie. Odd

[worthy moth]

There was a short clip 12 years ago, but it's being made into a full movie now

[cedar lark]

ah that would explain it

[coral pike]

stardrop cant recognize a mod. can i manually install the normal smapi way for that mod?

[late nebula]

Is it an xnb mod?

[drowsy void]

Has anyone else had issues after installing SMAPI and other mods where you can open the game but can't actually load in gameplay?

[late nebula]

Can you try the steps in the Game Doesn't Launch section? https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting

Oh wait I misread

If you have pytk, it can take a while to load

Not sure how long you are waiting

[drowsy void]

It loads for about a minute and then I get the Windows app is not responding pop up

[late nebula]

If you continue to wait, does it load?

Or does it crash to desktop?

[drowsy void]

It crashes to desktop

[late nebula]

!log Are you getting errors in your log?

[native dragon]

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

[drowsy void]

https://smapi.io/log/c7c411e959e4418fac4470ecadffee09

from the looks of it I don't think so?

[late nebula]

Might want to see what your RAM usage is when you try to load up. Depending on your pc's specs, it might be too much to try and use all those expansion mods.

Otherwise, I'm not sure.

[drowsy void]

Hm, alright. I'll take a look. I didn't think it would be an issue considering I run Sims 4 relatively smoothly. Thank you for the help

[late nebula]

Yeah, SDV isn't the most optimized game, especially with mods.

You can also try a mod called Spritemaster. It resamples the graphics but it's supposed to improve load times as well. (Haven't put that to the test yet myself.)

[cedar lark]

That recent patch that improve load speeds though

That was awesome

Can't remember which mod it was off hand

[coral pike]

wow you werent kidding when you said modding was fantastic

i just installed stardew and before it could even handle the grace of life i shoved 94 mods in its face and it didnt crash and only had 3 errors i fixed

[late nebula]

Yeah we're in a good spot right now

Most authors are active-ish and there are a lot of unofficial updates and just knowledgeable people in general.

[late nebula]

You mean like the expansion mods switching to Extra Map Layers instead of TMXL/PyTK?

And to SAAT instead of Custom Music?

That was a huge improvement.

[dire fractal]

Hello there! Can anyone help me step by step with how to make a dependency / prioritize loading?

Well, I think my problem can be fixed with making a dependency, but I don't know yet

[cedar lark]

Think content patcher updated

[late nebula]

To set up a false dependency, go into the manifest.json of the mod you're trying to get to load. If there is not a Dependencies section, you will need to create it.

"Dependencies": [
    {
      "UniqueID": "author.uniquemodID",
       "IsRequired": false,
    },
  ],

You can find the unique mod id in the manifest.json you are trying to create compatibility with.

[dire fractal]

The problem is both of the mods I'm trying to work together have a cat texture

But now both of them don't use their custom texture, and the default texture stays

But one of them adds sound, so that sound still plays with the cat

[late nebula]

You will need to choose one or merge them for personal use.

[dire fractal]

Oh I see

From what it sounds like, merging is difficult / I'm on my own with that?

[late nebula]

Nah

[cedar lark]

It was either that or another Baseline mod that updated that caused everything to speed up on launch

I'll have to go back and look through my chat history

[late nebula]

You want the mod with the custom sound but the cat from the other?

[dire fractal]

No, I want the sound and cat from one of the mods

The problem is that neither of the custom cat textures load, it's the default cat, if that makes sense? But the sound still goes through?

[late nebula]

!log might as well do this to see what it's saying

[native dragon]

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

[dire fractal]

Don't have access to my PC for an hour or so

[late nebula]

I have a feeling CP is like "Two things want to load cat and I am protesting."

[dire fractal]

Should I also post the links to the mods?

[late nebula]

Ah well I'm fixing to go to sleep so hopefully someone could help.

Thatwould be a good idea when you have a log.

[dire fractal]

Oh ok! I hope you have good sleep

[late nebula]

Thanks!

[lament sparrow]

Can I have multiple farmer clothing mods?
If so, how? I'm confused with the xnb mods and such.

[cedar lark]

!xnb

[native dragon]

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

[cedar lark]

generally you wanna avoid using xnb mods

[lament sparrow]

Ohhh, okay. Thank you!

[cedar lark]

np

[lament sparrow]

I'll check the alternatives

[surreal hawk]

I'm using the 'A Bigger Better Hilltop' map and tried to move the shipping bin to a better spot but there's still a frame for the shipping bin in the original spot? It's not interactable, but it does still act as a barrier. I opened the map in Tiled to see if I could edit it out, but there is no shipping bin or tileData elements for it, so I'm not sure why it is still there? I checked my smapi log but there doesn't seem to be anything of note in it, at least from what I can tell.

[upper ember]

The map is probably outdated. Useable, but still has the buildings as permanent fixtures on it instead of being moveable

[dire fractal]

Hi there again! I'd like to know if there's anything I can do to make two mods compatible with each other? I have my smapi log and the two mod links at the ready

I'm just trying to figure out if I can make one of the mods priority with the cat texture? The other mod I don't want the textures of has a config in the generic settings mod, but the one I want does not

[surreal hawk]

There is no permanent shipping bin on it, I've checked in Tiled because that's what I thought too. There's no tiledata or sprites for anything related to the shipping bin on any of the layers.

[dire fractal]

i am so sorry, i just realized my mistake

i added the optional audio files, but not the sprites themselves into my mod folder

[potent kindle]

Um

is there any like, auto mod update?

or do i have to update each and every mod since i last played?

[lost storm]

I just got a strange message on my screen and I'm thinking it's from the Love of Cooking mod. When I went to my kitchen to make some food, I got this: A kitchen appliance is currently in use, please try again later. Anybody seen this before?

[cursive crag]

it's love of cooking, idk how to fix it but opening and closing the fridge once let's you continue cooking 🤷‍♀️

[lost storm]

Oh thank you, that worked

[cursive crag]

There might be a better way but this worked for me: go into Tiled, go to the Buildings layer and erase the bottom two sections of shipping bin, go to the front layer and do the same to the top two squares, fix the bottom grass in the Back layer.

[surreal hawk]

There is no shipping bin on either of those layers in Tiled. It’s just empty grass, no shipping bin sprites or tile data.

[cursive crag]

you don't see the same in tiled?

cause I just downloaded the mod fresh to test it

[old isle]

any help>

?

[robust bison]

you can ignore that

[old isle]

it crashes my game

[native dragon]

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

[surreal hawk]

No that’s not there for me?? I’ve been tweaking some other things on the map but I have never had any shipping bin sprites on it. Now I am so confused lol

It makes me wonder if somehow my tile sheet is missing the sprites and it’s just invisible

[old isle]

https://smapi.io/log/85293b78f5e04541b428ec0878990d2e

Ummmmmmm

I JUST NOTICED ALL THE

thats unique

[old isle]

ok so

idk what i did

[robust bison]

unfortunately I don't know anything about DOS mode

@gaunt gust any ideas?

[cedar lark]

could this be a language issue somehow?

[robust bison]

possibly

[old isle]

i dont think so

hmm

this probably won't work but maybe try reinstalling SMAPI?

[old isle]

ill try

[lament prairie]

(Atravita usually doesn’t like pings fyi)

[lone mountain]

Hi, has anyone heard of issues where mods in multiplayer are not persisting their data between play sessions?
I'm running into this issue with quests in RSV and fish quality in Immersive Fish Ponds. Things look like they work while we're playing (mostly, some other issues with fish ponds, but we are working around them). Quest progress for my farmhand will be saved and can be confirmed with the quest framework summary command, and fish ponds will preserve fish quality between days. But if we quit the game, or quit to title and reload the game on a day where things are confirmed working, things will be reset for my farmhand.

They will get the same quests offered to them again, and fish ponds built by my farmhand will have their qualities reset.
My quests and fish ponds that I built will preserve the data

[cursive crag]

hmmm welp plan B jenky fix could be to try the Map Editor mod to get rid of it

[old isle]

oh im sorry i didnt know

vfrick

i didnt mean to ping u

[lament prairie]

(I’m ok with pings but if I’m away I probably won’t answer! And right now unfortunately I’m busy)

[surreal hawk]

Yeah, I’m going to re-get the necessary tile sheets and see if it’s it that but if not then I’ll definitely try the mod. Thanks for your help!

[analog meteor]

!help!

I moved some of my files to another file (so i dont use mods that enhance the gameplay on co-op) and when i loaded my mods for my main farm my map was deleted and all of my stuff is there but its on the basic map (i utilize the Grandpa's Grove Farm)

[cedar lark]

!modgroups

[native dragon]

See this link for how to load different mod groups: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Can_I_have_different_mod_groups.3F

[cedar lark]

did you follow this?

[analog meteor]

Yeah i separated my file's and i add the files for co-op and when i was finished playing with a friend, i loaded the mods i had on my folder into "Mods" in Stardew Valley files and it wasnt all there

and when i played with my friend the mods worked perfectly fine

[cedar lark]

try sending a log

im not the best at troubleshooting modgroup issues tbh

[analog meteor]

https://smapi.io/log/34f16e98166441e5932c0a8d8c78564b

its ok, i appreciate you at least trying to help me

[cedar lark]

yeah, you have errors but nothing I could pinpoint being the issue you're wanting fixed

[analog meteor]

dang it"

do you know if i can load into old saves?

like 2 days ago or something along those lines?

[cedar lark]

not sure Elizabeth probably could help you more but they said they were busy about an hour ago

[analog meteor]

Okay that's fine, thank you for trying

[shy orbit]

Duplicate object: Cannabis just added by Cannabis Kit for JsonAssets, already added by [JA] SDVWT! this should be fixed by removing one of those mods. the DGA version of farmer to florist is broken too, it needs the Json Assets version (in old files on nexus)

as for the farm, i think patch summary could help figuring out what's wrong with it (the mod doesn't seem to do anything currently)

[shy orbit]

!patchsummary

[native dragon]

@analog meteor 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.

[shy orbit]

i.e. load your save, go outside just to be sure, and then do the patch summary command

[analog meteor]

https://smapi.io/log/7ef66330f61e4a36a37093a7daaafe49

okay i downloaded some of the extra mods i needed and deleted the duplicates

i need to load into my game and see if it worked

[cedar lark]

you're still missing Stardew Hack

if you want to use "Harvest with Scythe" anyways

[analog meteor]

shit lol i need to get it thanks

[shy orbit]

cjb cheats menu has an option to harvest with scythe i think

so might not be needed to add an additional framework mod

[cedar lark]

that's fair as well

[analog meteor]

here's my farm right now

it still doesnt have the granpda map :{

[cedar lark]

I've never used Grandpa's Grove Farm

[shy orbit]

a log with the patch summary?

[cedar lark]

but based on the name I assume you would have to choose the farm that is dedicated to foraging

instead of I assume Standard

but I'm not 100% sure

[analog meteor]

How do i get that patch??

[cedar lark]

!patchsummary

[native dragon]

Can you do these steps to provide more info?

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

[shy orbit]

but yes, the farm map mod replaces only Farm_Foraging

i.e. the forest farm

[cedar lark]

Looks like you chose the standard farm

[shy orbit]

and i think the mod is pretty outdated, so might be better to get another one

[cedar lark]

I know the farm layouts Grandpas Farm and IFR2 use the standard

so you could try using that instead but there are some things you have to do

Vibel you've explained it before haven't you?

[analog meteor]

i dont know how to soz

[shy orbit]

well, if your save has the standard farm type the patch summary is not needed, because the mod isn't applied for the standard farm type

[cedar lark]

I think they have to do RTF, and some other stuff right?

[analog meteor]

i have a wrinkley brain, i dont know what i am doing... sorry

[shy orbit]

to clarify, did you ever use the Grandpa's Grove farm map mod on that save? or just added it now?

[analog meteor]

I have been using it for over a month

[shy orbit]

okay, then i guess the patch summary is needed. when you launch the game with smapi, it opens the smapi console window in addition to the game window. the patch summary command need to be typed into the console window

[shy orbit]

i guess we already know the problem though, for some reason the farm type in the save file was changed to the standard farm (the farm map mod doesn't have conditions for the patch, it just replaces the foraging map)

[analog meteor]

welp dangit that really stinks

[shy orbit]

ah, you're missing the default mods that smapi installs

[analog meteor]

is there a way to swap them?

[shy orbit]

might be good to reinstall smapi to get them back

[analog meteor]

OPHHHHHHHH

i feel like a big goofie goober rn : P

[shy orbit]

i don't think it's the reason for the problem though

[analog meteor]

Oh?

[shy orbit]

there's a debug command to change the farm type for a save, but i don't remember what it is (and can't seem to find it either)

[analog meteor]

dang it

[shy orbit]

#archived-modded-support message here

you might need the console commands mod from smapi for it (and the error handler mod is always good to have)

[analog meteor]

is that in nexus?

[shy orbit]

they come from smapi install

automatically added to the Mods folder

[analog meteor]

Great!

i just downloaded SMAPI again lol

What do i put in the <type>? @shy orbit

[cursive crag]

try debug set_farm_type list ?

[analog meteor]

like debug_set_farm_type list?

or with space between them?

[cursive crag]

debug set_farm_type list

[cursive crag]

ah, I was guessing

[analog meteor]

its okay XD
