archived-modded-support

[warm oar]

lemme see

[potent furnace]

does that mean i haver no mods?\

have**

[astral plover]

uh.. it should atleast load the 3 mods that come with smapi

[warm oar]

oh also, after validating, it told me that I have a 17kb update, but when its finished, steam keeps saying continue

[astral plover]

save backup and whatever else the other 2 were. crash handler log thingy

[warm oar]

if I click it, it just restarts and nothing happens

[dire fractal]

Did you make sure the Steam servers are working?

[warm oar]

ya

LMFAO

the animals folder did not get deleted

everything else did

but not the animal folder

[astral plover]

yeah something is most likely still accessing the folder, or atleast windows thinks that something is. restart your pc and try deleting it again. not the folder, but the individual files. sometimes under windows folders cant be deleted untill it has been emptied.

when restarting your pc, dont boot up steam or anything else. just go directly to the stardew installation directory and delete the files

[lavish marlin]

Also, not to alarm you, but your Steam language appears to be German.

[warm oar]

lmao yeah

uhm

there is no files in that folder

it says its empty

also I cannot open the folder, that doesn't work

[gaunt gust]

...odd

[astral plover]

whats the error message

[gaunt gust]

Time to uninstall and reinstall steam?

[warm oar]

something about its path

[astral plover]

tbh, that sounds like your disk is damaged

[warm oar]

The file or directory is corrupt and unreadable

[astral plover]

yeah i know what it sais, i can read german

[warm oar]

fortunate

[astral plover]

you should run a chkdsk

[warm oar]

wym by my disk is damaged

what is that and how do I do it

[astral plover]

it seems as tho your disk, the actual drive that file is on, is possibly damaged. chkdsk runs a check for fauly storage hardware

[warm oar]

I tried downloading stardew, but it doesnt finish up

that would be a problem

how do I do the chkdsk

[astral plover]

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/windows-10-how-do-i-start-chkdsk-and-defragment/c1f2fb49-7b71-409d-b713-6c10a28c9e51

[warm oar]

oh is it a command?

[astral plover]

you dont need to do defrag or optimse drivers, just the chkdisk part

[warm oar]

it doesnt give me the command prompt option

[astral plover]

it might be called "windows powershell (admin)"

[warm oar]

this bs again

[astral plover]

what did chkdsk return?

[lavish marlin]

A capital ß?!

what is this heresy

[keen wadi]

It’s literally just a B

[astral plover]

its not a captial ß

[warm oar]

Lmao it repaired the wrong drive

I have it on D:, my laptop repaired C:

[keen wadi]

But a C, nah a C is an upside down L. Sure, okay Latin, you do you.

[lavish marlin]

I saw it. You tried to hide your heresy, but I saw it.

[warm oar]

How do I get chkdsk to check on D:

[astral plover]

chkdsk D: /f
chkdsk D: /r

[lavish marlin]

you can supply both flags to the same instance.

[warm oar]

Ah

[lavish marlin]

chkdsk D: /F /R

there's no need to run it twice

though you'll probably need to add /X

[warm oar]

Where

At the end?

[lavish marlin]

to the same command line

doesn't matter

[warm oar]

Ait

[astral plover]

x also runs f, and if you dont add it but the drive is in use, you just have to restart your pc and it gets ran on startup

[warm oar]

It chose C: again

It gives me
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32>

I cant edit it to say PS D:\WINDOWS\system32>

[astral plover]

type in D:

[lavish marlin]

you don't need to be in the D root

chkdsk doesn't care what the working directory is

[astral plover]

yeah you shouldnt have to

[warm oar]

Yeah it only fixed c: last timer

Time*

[lavish marlin]

with what command?

[astral plover]

make a screenshot of what you typed in and what it returns

you likely typed in the command wrong

[warm oar]

Now it says
PS D:>

[warm oar]

Perhaps

Ill send in a screenshot of how I did it this time

My lightshot doesnt work

[astral plover]

actually, cant you use repair volume or something like that under powershell

lemme check real quick

[lavish marlin]

just hit alt printscreen

[astral plover]

(windows has a "winkey+shift+s" snippet tool btw)

[lavish marlin]

sure, but alt printscreen is quicker and easier

[lavish marlin]

I don't see a problem

[astral plover]

there's no problem

[warm oar]

Oki

[astral plover]

it tells you to restart your pc

so it can do the check

[warm oar]

Yeah will do

Sadly no pc, only laptop

I’d use C drive if I could give it some of the 900 GB ram on the D drive

[lavish marlin]

is 'Volume' often used in this context? I've never seen it before in German.

[astral plover]

sometimes

[warm oar]

Me neither tbh

[lavish marlin]

I'd normally say like Medium or such

[astral plover]

only in computing

[warm oar]

Phase 2 91%

After this I should be able to delete the file, right?

[lavish marlin]

Usually ghost directories can just be deleted after rebooting unless it's actual corruption

[warm oar]

I have no clue how to reboot

All I ever did was code a website that says hi

[lavish marlin]

You don't know how to restart the computer?

[astral plover]

press start in the bottom left, then the power button that pops up and then "herunterfahren"

[warm oar]

Oh that’s it?

Okay

Yeah I tried it before though

For the steam validation thing

[astral plover]

or restart "neustarten"

thats a

[warm oar]

It takes way longer and is in Phase 4 now

Lmao 1%

I think its trying to tell me that itll take 6 more hours

Help

What if my problem still won’t be fixed afterwards

Do you think Steam will be fixed after this too?

[astral plover]

steam might have some issues because of the folder since it cant actually save into that directory, so most likely. if it somehow still doesnt work, i'm not really sure what else you could try. deleting the folder trough cmd maybe, or look for a tool to attempt to remove it with.

[warm oar]

I tried moving it

Or shredding it via Antivirus

But my antivirus out of service

[astral plover]

tho you probably didnt actually restart your pc earlyer since you just asked how to do that. that might've already been all you need to do to be able to delete it

[warm oar]

Nono

I just didn’t know that this is rebooting

Ofc I know how to restart my Laptop

All the other folders in the content folder were deleted though

Do I need to run smapi again later on?

Because some of the smapi stuff didn’t disappear

[astral plover]

steam doesnt delete foreign files, meaning files you put into the directory yourself

[warm oar]

Perfect

So this is not about the mods, is it?

[astral plover]

you likely wont have to install smapi again, after reinstallting stardew if you use the same directory

well, the content\ folder is not a modded folder

its part of your vanilla installation

[warm oar]

Nice, thank you

Ill report back in 2 hours when it’s done

[dire lake]

any 'good to knows' or 'how tos' for running mods on a mac? My desktop has some pretty solid mods/expansions but i'm on vacation this week and only have my macbook air

[shy orbit]

!gettingstarted has mac specific instructions. they work in most cases i think

[native dragon]

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

[dire lake]

OHHH it's still all through SMAPI, praise the Devs

[dire fractal]

Hey guys

So i downloaded a TP mod that enabled TP via a map mod, and I also downloaded one for a horse to TP i think

I was able to TP w/o a horse twice

[old marsh]

wdym by that

[dire fractal]

Then I tried to TP again, and it wouldn't let me unless I had a horse

[finite lake]

You mean CP right

[dire fractal]

P.S i just started my game on PC

Teleport

[finite lake]

Ahh

[dire fractal]

So now, my teleport mod isnt working because its clashing with a horse mod and I have not yet gotten a horse

😦

[shy orbit]

what's the mod?

[finite lake]

!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]

So i believe one mod is called Fast Travel and the other is HorseFluteAnywhere

[old marsh]

whats the horse tp mod for? for the horse to tp to you? or for you to tp to the horse? or for you to tp riding the horse?

oh

[dire fractal]

I shall send a link here

One second

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/7500

Thiss is the horsey one

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1529

Fast Travel

[old marsh]

it would be impossible for those two to clash. can u send a smapi 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?

[dire fractal]

Oh yes one second

[finite lake]

Can u please send the !log

[shy orbit]

the fast travel mod has a config option that apparently disables the fast travel without a horse, balanced mode or something like that

[old marsh]

oh

[dire fractal]

Sorry I don't know how to send the !log 😦

[old marsh]

go download Generic mod config menu

[dire fractal]

It's my first day using smappi

[old marsh]

i think this is the problem

[dire fractal]

It's my first time using mods so forgive me if I am a little slow

[old marsh]

its ok

[dire fractal]

So I need to download a Generic mod config menu?

[old marsh]

let me link it

are u playing on a pc?

[dire fractal]

Thank you

Yes I am

[old marsh]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5098

[shy orbit]

the fast travel mod doesn't necessarily have generic mod config menu compatiblity

so you might have to edit the config.json in the fast travel mod folder

[dire fractal]

Should I remove the horse one?

[old marsh]

oh noes

[shy orbit]

it seems to be solvable by editing the config, so that shouldn't be needed

[old marsh]

do you still want your horse inside of pierres house?

what vibel said

[dire fractal]

Oh lord is that what it does hahaha

[shy orbit]

(and removing the horse flute anywhere mod probably doesn't solve it)

[dire fractal]

I just thought it moves them to you

When you lose them on the map

[old marsh]

it does! but it also allows the horse to be inside houses !

[dire fractal]

Hmmm

[old marsh]

if you dont have the horse flute then the mod is handy

also you can edit config thru notes i think

[dire fractal]

Okay so to edit the config, do i need to download the generic mod config and go from there?

Apologies I am very new to all of this

I started my original game on the Switch

[old marsh]

no no vibel said it has no gcm support

[shy orbit]

no, i said i'm not sure if it has

[old marsh]

yeah....

you uh go to the inside the mod and try to find config.json

[shy orbit]

you can try with it first (it's useful to have in any case for other mods even if it doesn't work for this)

GMCM adds a way to edit the config options in-game

[dire fractal]

I dont know what happens when you get a horse because I was not that far into the game - so does the horse actually just lose you or is this mod essential for other purposes as mentioned above (having horse in home) etc?

[shy orbit]

the horse flute anywhere gives you the functionality of the horse flute before you get it in the native game https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Horse_Flute

[old marsh]

yes

[dire fractal]

I see

[old marsh]

you can just leave it somewhere , and then the next day it'll be back to its stable

but in situations like your at the mines but its 12 and you dont have the horse flute and the minecarts the mod is very handy dandy

[dire fractal]

Oh okay I understand

😦

Using mods is hard hehe

Okay so

[old marsh]

it is lol

[dire fractal]

This is what is in the config

{
"SummonHorseKey": "H",
"RequireHorseFlute": false
}

I have no idea what else to include here

[old marsh]

is that for the horse flute anywhere?

[dire fractal]

Yes it is for the HorseFlute mod

[old marsh]

i think u need to edit the config.json for the tp mod

the one where you can tp via map

[dire fractal]

Oh okie let me try

Oh my good golly goodness

There is a lot of text for the Fast Travel config

ahhhhh

im scared

https://tenor.com/view/the-muppets-kermit-the-frog-smh-shake-my-head-no-gif-4883582

[old marsh]

LOL

[dire fractal]

How does one even edit this?

4 years of doing law at university hasn't even intimidated me this much....

[old marsh]

they replace "false" with " TRue" if they want something specific :D

[old marsh]

omg law student?

[dire fractal]

Oh so would that be this its at the top of the document

Yes 😦

^^

"BalancedMode": false,

[old marsh]

hmmmmm

try putting in true instead of false

and then restart your game

see if it works

[dire fractal]

Typing it exactly as 'True', with this spelling?

[shy orbit]

hm, i would have thought that it needed to be false. does it have a keybind setting that mentions toggling anything (the balanced mode specifically, but could be called something different)?

[dire fractal]

It says this exactly

[shy orbit]

can you upload it to smapi.io/json and link it here?

[dire fractal]

I would love to but I don't know how to

anybody know why my game res chnage when i download smapi?

Do I just drag the downloaded file into the !log link?

[shy orbit]

nope, to smapi.io/json (the log page is a different one)

or you can just upload it here

[old marsh]

vibel what was the mod name for the custom buildings stuff

what is TMX

or sumn

[shy orbit]

i don't know about that. tmxl map toolkit has custom buildables that function sort of that way

[old marsh]

yay found it

[warm oar]

I really love how I was trying to fix my laptop and it said 1 hour left and when I came back like 10 minutes later it says 3 hours

[old marsh]

thanks

[dire fractal]

So when you guys say log, do you mean the SMAPI text that opens up when I launch my game?

And it displays all of the mods present etc

[shy orbit]

eh doesn't look like it has config option for the key, but apparently the N key is the default key to toggle the balanced mode if i understand it correctly

it's not exactly the same thing, the log has much more text than the console window

[dire fractal]

Oh my gosh

I did it

https://smapi.io/log/68159b4401404b83b0fbd40ff631896f

yes

https://tenor.com/view/mlp-pinkie-pie-i-did-it-happy-mission-accomplished-gif-22660755

I deserve a snack now.

Did the link work?

[shy orbit]

yep, it's fine, but i don't think there is much to go on. my suggestion is to try pressing N key while in-game and seeing if it lets you use the teleporting without horse

[inner veldt]

Is there a mod that would allow me to terraform? I chose the 4 corners farm but it wasn’t what I expected so I’d like to remove the walls

[dire fractal]

I will try now

Thank you so much for your help and time

[shy orbit]

the closest to that i know is this mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8876?tab=description

[inner veldt]

Thank you 🙂

[dire fractal]

It works!

Yay

Ty

[shy orbit]

no problem! (to both of you)

[obtuse pine]

it won't let me install and i have a higher version in the game

[analog mantle]

is it mods that work on my old carectors ?

if anyone knows

[clear eagle]

You mean like does newly installed mods work on existing saves?

If so yes

[analog mantle]

yes

thats cool

[fringe kraken]

Hello. I have a problem with 1 mod "Let me rest". anyone could help?

so some reason the player in my hosted world cant use "let me rest" as it didnt regen. but i could. any idea how to fix it?

[split bolt]

Hi! I play Stardew Valley on Steam (PC), I've seen some tutorials, but I can't install mods because my SMAPI is giving me problems, could someone help me?

I already installed SMAPI and put it where it is located in the Steam Boot Options, but my stardew valley doesn't start.
When I open StardewModdingAPI.exe it opens with a c:__ dialog with the following message:

SMAPI failed to initialize: System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Collections.Specialized
[...] and other information.
Could someone help me please?

[torpid fox]

Do they also have the mod? Or do you, and only you the host, have it? If you want all players to be able to use the mod then everyone must install their own copy

[fringe kraken]

Yes. they have the exact same mod as mine.

[torpid fox]

Did their SMAPI give any errors?

[fringe kraken]

no. their SMAPI give no error

[shy orbit]

there are some common fixes on the troubleshooting page on wiki: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Specific_error_messages

[fringe kraken]

oh after a few restart and tries. It works

[inner veldt]

is there a way to make a manual backup of my save?

Like creating a new backup

[lament prairie]

!saves

[native dragon]

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

[inner veldt]

i know where they are

[lament prairie]

Literally copy paste the file somewhere and that works as a backup

[inner veldt]

but with smapi there is a save-backups folder

[lament prairie]

There’s also Advanced Save Backup mod

[inner veldt]

and its not up to date with my current farm

[lament prairie]

SMAPI Updates that once an irl day or something

[inner veldt]

ok so I should install advanced save backup?

[lament prairie]

Up to you

If you want even more backups then yes

[inner veldt]

ok ty

[lost storm]

I need some assistance. I'm having a problem where I am not receiving the rewards that I'm supposed to be getting when I complete a quest on the special order board.

And smapi is not giving any errors about it

I thought the mail services mod might be the problem but the mod author doesn't agree.

The items I can pull in using the item spawner, but that won't work with the crafting recipes. It's been suggested, I use console commands to get them but I haven't a clue how to use console commands.

[lament prairie]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[lament prairie]

Do you want fixes for the root cause, or help with console commands?

[lost storm]

Honestly, whatever is easiest

https://smapi.io/log/3e90d01a7a0a4739b49e824449275c45

[gaunt gust]

Can you go to the console and type patch export Data/mail

And then send that file

[lost storm]

Send the log again you mean? or?

[split bolt]

Thank you very much!!

its worked

[gaunt gust]

No, the file that command generates

[lost storm]

Would it be in the same place as the log?

[gaunt gust]

No, the command tells you where it saves things to

[lost storm]

ok

Oh I got a hell of an error on that one

Can't export asset 'Data/mail' of type Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject, or expected image or data.

[gaunt gust]

Hmmm

[shy orbit]

from the mods i can say that Kent Mail replaces the data/mail asset with an outdated version

unless it's an unofficial update that doesn't modify the manifest or something

[lost storm]

I can get rid of Kent Mail, not a necessity

[gaunt gust]

patch export Data/mail Dictionary<string,string>..... Or that

[lost storm]

[Content Patcher] Could not load type 'Dictionary<string,string>'. This must be the C# full type name like System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[[System.String],[System.String]].

I did try the first command

And got the file

Yea those mail with the items or recipes, I never got those but they show up here.

So how do I get those items now

Ok, went into the game, I got the last item from the last SO I finished, I guess I need console commands to get the recipes now. So how do I do that?

[gaunt gust]

debug craftingrecipe Recipe Name

[lost storm]

Looking at the list of commands on the wiki, there was one that gives you all of the ones you don't have, which I think is all the missing ones

Oh I think I get it now, and why it didn't work before

hmmm

Oh it did work

Fantastic!

Thank you so much for everything

[gaunt gust]

Well, glad that is sorted!

[fluid basin]

i was downloading some mods and instead of it being a folder it downloaded a .rar file and i was wondering how that works

i cant open it so do i just put it into my mods folder ?

[lament prairie]

!unzip

[native dragon]

Files with the extension .zip, .rar, or .7z are archive files, which you can extract to get the actual files inside. For a .zip file, just right-click (or long-press on Android) it and choose the option like extract or uncompress. For .rar and .7z, you need to install third-party software first, like 7-zip https://7-zip.org on Windows, Keka https://keka.io on macOS, PeaZip https://peazip.github.io on Linux, or ZArchiver https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver on Android.

[pearl obsidian]

has anyone found anything for the resolution issues with SMAPI?

[fluid basin]

this ?

[neat plaza]

yes

[fluid basin]

i did it but im looking and it is not ther

[dusty spruce]

what resolution issues?

[pearl obsidian]

this

to reiterate, on SMAPI, when i fullscreen i lose parts of my HUD and the camera is just super off

like, it doesnt follow my character, my character is off the screen

windowed/windowed borderless the game runs at basically 1080p

everything is constantly blurry

[honest meteor]

hi what was that mod that shows how many days till a crop grow again?

[pearl obsidian]

im running the game at 4k

[dusty spruce]

no idea what that message specifically means

anyway, honestly, it's probably a MonoGame issue, not Stardew

[pearl obsidian]

its SMAPI

it doesnt do it for vanilla

it does it without any mods

[astral plover]

probably ui info suit. you want to use UI infosuit 2

[pearl obsidian]

some other guy came in with the same issue as well

[honest meteor]

thanks

[dusty spruce]

and i don't think SMAPI does anything to the rendering itself

[pearl obsidian]

it only does it on SMAPI, with or without mods

[dusty spruce]

if nothing helps, just disable system scaling altogether

[pearl obsidian]

where would i do that

also, i deleted startup preferences

as recommended earlier

[dusty spruce]

Windows display settings -> scale -> change to 100%

[gray oracle]

Is anyone using ManyEnchatments? Last update was May 2021, is it still working well?

[gaunt gust]

It's working fine last I tested

[dusty spruce]

i had some issues with it last time i used it

if i enchanted my weapons with way too many stat gems (i think?), i couldn't enchant it again with an actual enchantment nor galaxy soul

[gaunt gust]

Hum. I think it doesn't allow you to enchant after you put every enchant on it

[dusty spruce]

or was it too many enchantments, idk

might be it

[gaunt gust]

And unforging never worked for me

[gray oracle]

according to the nexus forum, someone had the same problem... They said u need to select the gem before the weapon/tool for further enchantment

Idk if its true but...

[pearl obsidian]

this works! unfortunately now everything on my regular display is tiny 😭

thanks tho, this does work

[gaunt gust]

From what I can recall, it is true

I just tested it....last week?

[dusty spruce]

i assume this didn't work for you?

[gray oracle]

well anyway I might as well just test it too, thanks for the help :)

[pearl obsidian]

yeah the DPI thing wasnt the problem, both were the same

[dusty spruce]

i don't have a 4K screen, so i can't really test in a sensible way

[pearl obsidian]

i appreciate it very much, thank you

[dusty spruce]

well, i do have a 4K TV, but the last time i connected it directly via HDMI to my PC, it fried my GPU and the HDMI port on the TV...

[gaunt gust]

The fuck

[dusty spruce]

apparently this apartment's electric work is... of dubious quality

so i'm not connecting those together ever again until i move out

sooo probably in 6 months or so

[honest meteor]

is the sdv expanded really good? im getting burnt out of the base game

[thorny crystal]

I'm trying to sort out mod groups, but whenever I try to launch it launches with 0 mods 🤔 What am I doing wrong?

[dusty spruce]

passing a wrong path, probably

[thorny crystal]

hrm it does accept the path

[gaunt gust]

Ask modded farmers? I hear it's good

can you paste the full launch options here?

[thorny crystal]

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" --mods-path "Mods (testing)"

This is the folder with path

Is it the mods folders in the mod folder that's causing issues?

[dusty spruce]

oh, you're not using a non-Steam game?

[gaunt gust]

needs to be up a level, it's expecting relative to the location of smapi

[dusty spruce]

it looks fine to me

[thorny crystal]

Ah okay, thanks!

[dusty spruce]

oh wait

it's not

yeah this isn't correct, like atra said, one level up

[thorny crystal]

Yea I figured! Thanks ❤️

[dusty spruce]

anyway, i prefer using a non-Steam game option for this

It worked now 😄 Not gonna touch it more haha

Oh

what do i do then since its not letting me enable the mod in vortex??

[shell jackal]

I don't use vortex so I can't say

[long yew]

:<

[long yew]

ok thank you though!

[lament prairie]

vortex isn't particularly recommended for stardew modding, since manual modding is relatively easy and vortex sometimes has bizarre problems

[long yew]

Ohh

[long yew]

What do you recommend I do then??

[shell jackal]

Manual install

[long yew]

Sorry kinda new to modding

[shell jackal]

It's just copy/paste, once you download the mod.

[drifting nest]

hey, a few friends and I are using some mods and one of them cannot get onto the world and we can't work out why

we have the SMAPI log thing

Ayo, I'm about to hit year 3, am almost at full completion, and really want to blow up my save once I get statue of perfection. I have SVE and a handful of other basic mods and I want to go wild. I mean adding every crop mod, every npc, every compatible destination, etc. I know the main ones (Juliet, Jesse, Denver, Delores, Mr. Ginger, Downtown Zuzu, East Scarpe, RSV, Lunna Astray) does anyone have any hidden gem reccomendations for npcs or locations?

[lament prairie]

I would recommend on top of those:

• Jasper

• Swim

• Gem Isles

[long yew]

What am i doing wrong? T-T

[lament prairie]

You’re in select mode

[astral plover]

press enter

[long yew]

oh

[astral plover]

if you click or drag inside that window, the process stops sometimes untill you hit enter

also... i'd advise not using vortex. you'll likely run into problems at some point and then wont know what the issue is.

[clear eagle]

Why are there two NPC Map Locations

[long yew]

Because I honestly didn’t know what i was doing

HAHAHHAHA

[astral plover]

vortex often deletes manifest files

Beautiful! Thank you so much 🙂

i fixed alot of the top errors the other ones are like weird random files vortex put there for cat knows why

this happens after sleeping btw

[shell jackal]

I see this in there, but I'm not sure what mod it is. aedenthorn.CustomObjectProduction__aedenthorn.UtilityGrid

[safe ocean]

[shell jackal]

Maybe try taking that out?

[gaunt gust]

to me it looks like bad gift tastes

you can try patch exporting the gift tastes file

[safe ocean]

huh?

[dire fractal]

help for some reason i cant see my crop icons

[safe ocean]

how do i "patch export"

[shell jackal]

Knowing how to read those logs needs to be an online class or something.x D

[safe ocean]

i can kind of read them

its not that hard

[gaunt gust]

https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/develop/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/troubleshooting.md

[safe ocean]

[dire fractal]

halp please?

[safe ocean]

whats the gift taste directory thing

[dusky canyon]

it seems your scroll on your mouse doesn't work, so this may help you parknich

[safe ocean]

bruh

i saw that

but what is the gift taste directory 🤦‍♂️

[dusky canyon]

I recommend removing Path Display

[safe ocean]

patch export "C:\GitlabRunner\builds\Gq5qA5P4\1\ConcernedApe\stardewvalley\Farmer\Farmer\NPC.cs"

this?

[safe ocean]

ok

[gaunt gust]

patch export Data/NPCGiftTastes

[safe ocean]

patch export "Data/NPCGiftTastes"

that?

do i run that while the game is open

@gaunt gust ?

[dusky canyon]

yes

while your save is open

reinstall these mods

[gaunt gust]

remove lux's food mod

[cedar lark]

also it seems like you're using Vortex? Using it has issues where it eats files

[gaunt gust]

who's adding the RNPC5 stuff at the end?

[dire fractal]

ok i have reinstalled ridgeside twice it has the same issues luxs mod is new ill try that

[cedar lark]

seems like when you're reinstalling its not adding the entire folder

since it's missing the manifest

[dire fractal]

huh....

is there a way to add it in somehow?

[cedar lark]

I assume that's a Vortex bug

not sure

[dire fractal]

DARN

[late nebula]

You could alternatively set mods up as false dependencies in Lux's Food Mod if you're using ones to replace the crops.

[shy orbit]

it's random npcs

[late nebula]

I think I made a post on LFM with the ones in your log.

[glad zephyr]

Can someone here help me figure out what's up with this Naver mod I downloaded? It claims it's up to date with 1.5 but it won't load x.x

[cedar lark]

a log might help

[glad zephyr]

AH WAIT I think..... I think I figured it out by reading the smapi log ><

[cedar lark]

not sure

[glad zephyr]

It's missing a tilesheet.... I need to try to figure out what its missing and see if I can get it

Thanks anyway ❤️

[cedar lark]

I assume you're not using vortex since its a Naver mod

so it probably didn't get eaten

[glad zephyr]

Yeah I don't use vortex

[shy orbit]

to be sure, was the trash can visible on the save before you did any debug commands?

[wraith oriole]

yeah

weird, making a new save doesn't show the trashcan

[safe ocean]

random npc visitors i assume

[lament prairie]

is it a rar

!unzip

[native dragon]

Files with the extension .zip, .rar, or .7z are archive files, which you can extract to get the actual files inside. For a .zip file, just right-click (or long-press on Android) it and choose the option like extract or uncompress. For .rar and .7z, you need to install third-party software first, like 7-zip https://7-zip.org on Windows, Keka https://keka.io on macOS, PeaZip https://peazip.github.io on Linux, or ZArchiver https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver on Android.

[safe ocean]

yeah its a rar

use 7zip

[brazen pawn]

and then what

[safe ocean]

wdym and then what

you put it in the mods folder like any other mod?

[brazen pawn]

oh so i just download 7-zip and carry on like normal?

[safe ocean]

yes..?

[brazen pawn]

whats the sass for

[safe ocean]

??

[brazen pawn]

dont gotta be actin like that for no reason

[safe ocean]

???

[shell jackal]

I don't think they mean to be sassy or rude. People on here are just used to others knowing how to use 7zip. They don't mean any offense or anything. Remember that text alone makes it hard to tell a person's tone. 🙂

[vestal oriole]

Is there anything people can recommend I run mods with cause Smapi is causing me problems

[shell jackal]

Did you use vortex?

[vestal oriole]

No

[shell jackal]

Smapi is fine. It just looks like some mods were not installed correctly.

[vestal oriole]

I just started mods yesterday but it stressed me out figuring out issues

They should be cause I follow everything correctly, do you think you could help me?

[shell jackal]

I can try. I'm not the best at giving instructions though. But I can still try

[vestal oriole]

Alright would it be easier to call or just text

[shell jackal]

I don't do calls or voice. It gives me bad anxiety. We can just try here

[vestal oriole]

Alrighty

[shell jackal]

Basically it looks like you extracted the mod folders wrong.

[shy orbit]

well, the mod folders apparently have manifest files still, so might be some antivirus or similar blocking/removing the content.json's (for whatever reason). i'd try a delete + reinstall of the mods first

the reshade is a different thing, it isn't installed like usual mods

or well, at least i think it isn't installed by putting those folders into the Mods folder

but it's pretty interesting that all of the CP content packs are missing content.json files

[vestal oriole]

Do I have to extract every mod I download?

[shell jackal]

Pretty much, yes. On nexus they are all compressed. Usually a zip or rar folder.

[safe maple]

Hi everyone, I need some help: I have 38 mods all up to date and seemingly fully functional (according to SMAPI) yet when I launch my game it only shows a black screen and will not load up. Wondering if anyone has had this experience & can assist?

can soemone help? i have daisyniko recolor mod but it isnt coloring this section

[dusty spruce]

or another mod is also trying to modify that section

[brazen pawn]

is there anyhting i can do to fix it

[main ingot]

sve doesnt have a daisyniko recolor option idt so its defaulting to overriding that area with the vanilla colors

[brazen pawn]

it does

it has maps for sve

in loosesprites

[shy orbit]

more specifically that comes from IF2R, and daisyniko doesn't have a compat patch for it

nor IF2R for daisyniko

at least to my knowledge

[main ingot]

[safe maple]

Up to 3 minutes, it never takes this long to load up normally

[late nebula]

Have you added pytk mods recently?

pytk tends to cause long load times

Otherwise, yeah probably need to see your log to see if anything stands out.

[coral pike]

so the magic mod for some reason did not give me the analyze spell, can i cheat it in?

ignore the red empty folder i forgot to clean up

oh i see. i need to use an altar... wish it told me that. like that i specifically need one to even start

[wild summit]

Does anyone know what mod adds the quest "Trapped Soul"? The wizard has tasked me with fishing up a "trapped soul" (a red fish of some sort?) from the witch's swamp and bringing it to him to study.

So I tried giving him a void salmon and that didn't work. So now I don't know if I should keep fishing for an item called trapped soul or not. I tried googling the name of the quest (using my knowledge of google-fu to narrow down results that contained exactly the phrase "trapped soul" with the keyword "stardew") and I found no useful results- just a forum post on starbound asking for help with the same issue.

Thanks for any insight.

[gaunt gust]

Sounds like More New Fish to me

[coral pike]

Your smapi log would help to see your mod list

Speaking of which, I'm sad there isn't a longevity conpatability patch for more new fish unless you can make one.

[wild summit]

ty

[shell jackal]

Yah, that is from More New Fish. ||Says it's rare. Any season, any weather, from 6-2.||

[wild summit]

I just went back and caught it. Much appreciated!

Does anyone know why my color would be off

[lament prairie]

color-balancing on the monitor maybe?

[unborn pine]

I can literally see through sterling

[lament prairie]

i think monitors usually have a few different color settings

hmmmm seeing through sterling is weirder though

[unborn pine]

Do you think I should exit out and do a log?

[lament prairie]

You can do a log without exiting

it's hard for me to tell what's going on from the pictures

You may also want to do a patch summary

!patchsummary

[native dragon]

Can you do these steps to provide more info?

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

might be worth patch exporting Sterling's Portraits

Try patch export Portraits/Sterling in the console after loading into a save.

[unborn pine]

I think the video shows it

so I just save then do i put the command in smapi

[gaunt gust]

hummm

Well thank you all. Next time I'll read extra careful.

Could anyone have a look at this one?

[earnest jewel]

@tired brook Was told to ping you as you might be able to help, or at least you might want to know:

Running on a Steam Deck over here. A fresh stock install, the game uses about 6 watts according to the Deck's overlay. But if I do a plain install of SMAPI (no other mods), the power draw jumps to 20 watts. Which means my battery life for a full charge goes from 8 hours to 1.5 hours. Any idea why SMAPI would take so much more power? Again no other mods installed. Tested both on a brand new save.

[tired brook]

Nope, I have no idea what affects Steam Deck power usage. It could be something like automated power-saving rules for games like Stardew Valley which aren't applied since SMAPI isn't a recognized game?

Hard to say, unfortunately—try installing Error Handler and see if the error improves?

[gaunt gust]

Zero clue sorry, would have to pop the code open and do some reading

I don't know because I have never seen that before and would have to do some research

I'm going to try that and see if it works out 🙂

As to why, idk

if you try warping to lance via debug wtc Lance, what happens?

[glass nova]

Okayy

I've never tried it

And my friend is off

So I can't

Hi, it's me again. I am writing to you because I have yet another question concerning Machine Status.

Yesterday a new "machine" appeared in the corner that I have no idea what it is. It's a picture of a flower pot with an orange flower in it and a grey bar floating on top.
I can not find anything resembling it on my farm nor mention of it in the settings.
I am once again asking for your help to solve this mystery.

Like I said, my 5 garden pots are in my chest so adding them to exception did nothing

[brazen vapor]

https://smapi.io/log/fbf4ae4b51194965b880992508770d98 client for which the bug appeared

[fervent saddle]

Would logs help you figure out what this is

[dusty spruce]

Not really, no

I don’t log anything that would help there

I’ll try to get something out soon

Will ping you before release to see if it even works

[fervent saddle]

[slender veldt]

what are some mods I could download if I'm bored with the base game and need more things to do?

[clear eagle]

More contents?

You can try expansion mods like SVE, RSV, ES, DTZ, etc.

[heady verge]

Guys I need some help, my Stardew save is not working anymore. After nearly one year and a lot of work I can not save because that will crash the game, I will attach the smapi.log and wish for someone who maybe can help me 😦 I tried to remove all mods I have, except of SVE, but it still occurs. I assume it could have something to do with a fishpond.. but it worked all fine until this one day, and I think I did not change anything regarding to the ponds 😦 I really wish someone can help me or give me a hint. Thanks a lot! https://smapi.io/log/167bfea71da945958305afc160965410

[lament prairie]

Do you have modded fish in a fishpond?

You may have had a json shuffle

Also, it’s best to upload 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?

[gaunt gust]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9087 install warp snitch

you have a json shuffle in a fish pond I think

[heady verge]

I uploaded it into my first message; I think the 4 types of wish I have are all base game. Lava eel, sturgeon, scorpion carp and cockles are inside

[lament prairie]

The website parser is helpful for readability

Instead of posting the raw log

also try what atravita said

[heady verge]

I also added the link now 🙂

[dusty spruce]

please try this one out. i've added a check for 0 ID bigcraftables (plant pots) (they should not appear anymore) and also added some trace logs whenever i add or remove machines

[fervent saddle]

I'll try it tonight thank you

[dire fractal]

Even without having any recolor mods active, this is happening to my shipping bin. Anyone know what could be wrong?

[clear eagle]

Can I see the log?

[dire fractal]

Sure thing, one sec.

[worthy lichen]

Every time I go to pick up anything the game is freezing for ~2 seconds then unfreezes with this line being displayed by SMAPI. [13:22:27 TRACE Quest Framework] Checking managed quest completions <QuestFramework.Quests.CustomQuest, QuestFramework.Quests.CompletionArgs>

[dire fractal]

Sorry for the wait - had something to do.
I've found that the color issue happens because of the Alternative Textures mod, but I don't know what it's incompatible with. Idk where the glitchy movement comes from. The weird thing is that this glitch only appears on the forest farm, and hasn't been an issue in any pre-existing saves.
Here's the log: https://smapi.io/log/138079f0859a4fd1a41e7852436fd022

[remote panther]

I have a weird issue where trees are spawning fish food instead of their fruit, and my crops turn into random junk items when harvested... Legit have no clue where to even start troubleshooting on this one lol

[smoky badger]

Can you use mods on Xbox

[dusty spruce]

on the Xbox console? no

[smoky badger]

Ok thanks

[dusky canyon]

do you have Automate? Go to the config and change the value of Automation Interval to 36000

oh I read the first part wrong, but you can still try it :)

[shy orbit]

if they are modded trees and crops, then it's likely json assets item id shuffle, it can happen when adding, removing or updating JA mods. not much you can do about it except to destroy the existing crops and trees and plant new ones (cjb cheats menu for instant growth and cjb item spawner for spawning the seeds/saplings are useful)

[shy orbit]

(36000 is 10 minutes, so probably a bit too much)

[dusky canyon]

I know xp

[remote panther]

ahhhhh ok, cool!

[worthy lichen]

What had you thought was happening?

[dusky canyon]

when having automate on a short automation interval, it lags every couple of minutes/seconds

[worthy lichen]

Oh, I do have a lot of connector paths, but this is happening when I pick up things like truffles or forage.

I would hope that's not related to Automate

Looks like I have a few things I need to update, gonna get those sorted then test again.

[shy orbit]

quest framework can spam that kind of message pretty regularly, so it's not necessarily related, but do you have any QF quests that track items? i guess you could cancel those to test if it helps (or cancel everything, it's not permanent unless you save)

ah well, unless updating fixes it already

[gray oracle]

Eyy everyone, got another error with my mods (I guess its something to do with the MultiSpouses/FreeLove and the marriage cutscene, at least that's what the console was spamming)

Please help if possible:
https://smapi.io/log/2f1f2a91176b4e0b90a26394f913d669

[dusty spruce]

Why are you using both Multiple Spouses and Free Love?

Free Love does what Multiple Spouses was doing, and more

[pine ledge]

I would recommend removing one or the other and seeing if the error happens again. It might well be a case of them being incompatible with each other since. Well. They’re from the same author and do the same thing, almost. Aeden cut Multiple Spouses into multiple different mods for modularity and ease of maintenance. So Free Love is more up-to-date than Multiple Spouses would be.

[lament prairie]

One of your spouses may not exist atm based on Object reference not set to an instance of an object. but it's hard to say, I would agree with Shockah and foggy that the best first step is to move to only one of them, probably Free Love.

[burnt lion]

how do i apply a mod on Android?

[neat plaza]

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

@burnt lion 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.

[burnt lion]

i installed smapi

now do i just have to install a mod?

[neat plaza]

yes.

[burnt lion]

oh my god now the smapi is the stardew valley

thats nice

uhh idk what mod i wanna choose

oh nevermind i need a new save for it

thank you though pillow for clearing my doubts!

[neat plaza]

not nessesarily but its recommended

[outer turret]

who are you trying to marry?

[gray oracle]

Claire (SVE), already removed MultiSpouses but didn't test it yet

[outer turret]

what's interesting is I've got someone else in a different Cord with a very similar error. Did you have any issues getting the mermaid pendant?

are you a farmhand? Or in Co-op at all?

[lament prairie]

Someone did come in with a similar issue yesterday too (Lance,SVE)

[gray oracle]

Not rlly, I just bought around 5 mermaid pendant in a rainy day like any other save (I'm gifting one every week to avoid any weird bug or Idk)

Already married Sophia and Abigail no problems, so Idk what happened

Yep just tested that save again, it was prob MultiSpouses mod

[outer turret]

yeh I"m talking to them on the SVE 'cord. I think? Did you have a solution?

[lament prairie]

Nope

They didn't have logs since they were playing MP

[outer turret]

I've got a log.... it's no help. They're not even using Free Love.

https://smapi.io/log/0d823bf81d824f03997482360fdc6eff

[lament prairie]

(They had their log, but not the host's log, and I asked them to try debug wtc Lance to check if the character does in fact exist)

[outer turret]

ah right, that's what I was wondering too, if somehow the host hadn't unlocked him

[lament prairie]

I think debug wtc NAME uses the same search i saw in prepareSpouseForWedding

It's a getCharacterFromName or something

NPC characterFromName = Game1.getCharacterFromName(farmer.spouse);
^this is the line that I'm fairly confident is failing

Since I don't see any null-checks or anything after that

Alternatively, farmer.spouse could be null or something??, but if they don't have Free Love or Multiple Spouses, that also seems unlikely

I haven't checked to see what farmer.spouse would return for an unmarried farmer

[gaunt gust]

Null

[lament prairie]

Hmm, debug wtc uses a slightly different method...

NPC target_character2 = Utility.fuzzyCharacterSearch(debugSplit[1]);

Then have them type in Game1.getCharacterFromName(Game1.player.spouse)

Alternative debugging idea: have them install Console Code

(Sorry, those sent in a weird order, not sure what my internet is doing)

[gaunt gust]

Still, if lance exists you should be able to warp to him

[dim hare]

hello! having some problems w/ stuttering every 15 seconds or so..
I asked yesterday and came up w/ nothing, so sorry to ask again but, anyone heard of/had a similar issue?

[lament prairie]

.q 5891

[devout pumice]

[#5891] "Lag/stutter is unfortunately very hard to diagnose. There are a few potential causes:

1. Background processes on your computer (ex. my game lags/stutters horribly when my computer changes from light to dark theme at nightfall)
2. Garbage collection in the game/game framework.
3. Certain functions within the game can cause lag/stutter (ex. forage spawn at specific times, screenshot triggering)
4. Certain mods are more likely to cause lag/stutter, and may have config options to reduce them. (ex. seasonal outfit-type mods, FTM mods with many monsters spawning)
5. Certain computer setups may experience more lag.

In terms of fixes, by cause above:

1. You can try viewing Task Manager/Activity Monitor while the game is running to identify problematic background processes, and/or close other apps.
2. Difficult to address as a user. Ameise has been trying to track this down but it has been proving elusive.
3. See if the lag occurs at a consistent time and try to find mods that add a change at those times.
4. Ask if there are config options for the mods you suspect. For ex., FTM (reduce monster spawn limit), DSV (use lightweight version), and Automate all have config options.
5. If you have an Nvidia GPU, try typing .q 5755 in #governors-mansion for some possible settings to try. On Windows, you may also try things with setting SDV/SMAPI to specific cores or priority levels?" - @lament prairie (07 Mar 2022 @ 06:07:07 PM UTC)

[lament prairie]

(Sorry for the monster of a quote)

[dim hare]

all good, glad to have an answer

[dire fractal]

I once tried to move the shipping bin through Robin's, and that for some reason caused it to duplicate permanently. Starting a new save does not fix it.
Is there a way to completely reinstall the game when playing on Steam? Like start completely fresh? I've tried reinstalling normally, but the glitch persists. My game has been modded so I'm probably supposed to post here.

[lament prairie]

Have you tried resetting, or reinstalling?

!reset

[native dragon]

See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! (This doesn't affect your save files.) You may also want to check this list of XNB > Content Patcher conversions (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher) to see if there are already replacements for any XNB mods you may have been using :)

[lament prairie]

The other thing is, are you using a 1.4-era farm map mod?

[dire fractal]

No, I only play base maps

I'm going to try resetting

Ok, that seems to have worked, at the cost of accidentally deleting all my like 130 mods lol. Glad it worked though! Thanks Elizabeth.

[lament prairie]

Any SMAPI mods should still work

Are you on windows?

Or Mac/Linux?

[dire fractal]

As in I deleted all the files without remembering to back them up

It's fine though, I can just reinstall

[lament prairie]

Ahh okay

Deleting would definitely remove them 🙂

[glass nova]

Where do u write this

In normal chat

Or in the smapi cmd

[lament prairie]

SMAPI

[glass nova]

Ok

[real hedge]

Loaded my coop farm with mods on accident, cannot load it again, modlist below, any help?

[lament prairie]

Try loading it with no mods except error handler and console commands?

[desert totem]

Oh dear..

Pressing buttons is officially making it worse-

I think spritemaster and the reshade I'm using are not compatible

Cause I managed to start moving but everything is pixelated again

Oh, and the game crashed cool

[dusky canyon]

l̵͋̃ó̵̂o̶͆̐k̴̄͘ŝ̵̛ ̷͑͝g̴̅̓o̸̔̋ó̵̑d̴̈́̕

[desert totem]

Lmao

Yeah very playable

When I managed to start moving the entirety of the game's UI disappeared

It would do that if I accidentally pressed Q but I don't even know if I have anything bound to Q

[unique whale]

Probably a dumb question but how does one use the fishing nurseries from the "More New Fish" mod? I keep trying to put it down on my farm but I get a message that says it can't be used on that space - does it have to be adjacent to water or something?

I looked on the nexus page for it but I couldn't see any articles aside from one outlining what special things you can get from the fish ponds

[torn prawn]

Place it inside

[unique whale]

oh okie, tyvm ^_^

[late nebula]

what's the reshade? I'll test it on my pc and see if I can reproduce it.

[desert totem]

https://smapi.io/log/9c4504e777324f5e870306296b95f79b

I got two warnings for SM

You'll have to scroll past all the content patcher warnings

[lavish marlin]

Graphics Adapter Description: Intel(R) UHD Graphics 620

[desert totem]

Yeah,, that makes sense.

[late nebula]

Is it the American Gothic reshade?

[lavish marlin]

Well

[Save] Internal Error writing texture cache file 'C:\Users\cupca\AppData\Local\StardewValley\Mods\SpriteMaster\TextureCache_0.13.0.4873\58cea0ab6677c5ea.cache': ZstdNet.ZstdException: Allocation error : not enough memory

that's certainly not good

[desert totem]

Sigh

I'm gonna have to stop putting off that upgrade

[lavish marlin]

you only have 4 GiB of RAM

?

[desert totem]

Yep

[lavish marlin]

I mean

you might be able to get it to work with a LOT of Swap space

maybe 8-12 GiB

[late nebula]

Okay, well I guess I'll not test it on my end to see if I can reproduce it.

[lavish marlin]

SM will usually 'work' in a sense during OOM

but it will usually be problematic, usually flushing caches repeatedly

it's also difficult for me to test low-memory situations

[desert totem]

I was hoping the mods I deleted would be good enough but I may have to scrap some JA mods just to get the darn thing to work

"the darn thing" being the game

[lavish marlin]

how much swap space do you have

[desert totem]

Just hoping I don't get a shuffle

I wouldn't know that

[lavish marlin]

right click 'my computer'

go to properties

'Advanced system settings'

'Advanced' tab, click 'Settings' under 'Performance'

'Advanced' tab again, under Virtual memory it will say Total paging file size for all drives

[desert totem]

12288 MB

[lavish marlin]

that should suffice

in SM's config.toml, there's a few things you can try changing

MaxScale = 6, change that to like 2 or 3

if you're not using CP:A, under Config.SuspendedCache you can try setting Enabled to false

and set TextureCacheEnabled to false

that should reduce memory footprint quite a bit

[desert totem]

Alright, I did those so I'll try to launch the game again and see what happens

[lavish marlin]

I try to use as little RAM as possible, but I still have to keep the original assets around

I'd also set OptimizeEngineTaskRunner to false for safetyt

I plan on dynamically setting config options based on available RAM at some point

one issue is that an embedded GPU will also use system RAM heavily

if I send a texture to my GPU, it uses VRAM.

[desert totem]

I haven't encountered any game breaking glitches so far so I will assume that worked

[lavish marlin]

you really need more than 4 GiB of RAM though

[desert totem]

Yeah thats not surprising to me

I've been planning to buy something with more ram but I keep having to push that back unfortunately

[unborn pine]

I'm trying to add bfav cotton candy sheep to my BFAV but when I read the paritees website I'm not understanding my config.json is blank

[dire fractal]

so the faded flower (that shows up as the first item in the craftables file) shows up while the chest is hovering. is this normal?

its been happening for awhile now. or its been happening all this time and maybe ive just caught notice of it recently.

[unborn pine]

Never mind lol I figured it out I think

[acoustic flare]
