[mental quail]

the name changes also make me smirk

btw blank - if you add ridgeside, there's an option in the settings for Easy Introduction, and also Enable Better Bus Stop so you don't have to walk around fences to get to the cable car

[floral quarry]

k, def will look into that then

my main concern rn is this

I don't care about the items, I can spawn that back in. I'm just worried about story wise

[fading summit]

Why does my stardew mod script say that i need to updates paritees farm animals but I cant find where to update/download the newer one

[lament prairie]

!compat

[native dragon]

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

[floral quarry]

cos I'm trying to give a friend of mine a good modded stardew experience, and it's gonna wacky when lewis suddenly ask for cosmo star for his soup

[calm spindle]

Yeah that

I think the full command is debug ja_summary

@floral quarry I actually copy the ja_summary outputs im trying to compare straight out of the window and put them into a diff checker like this, for easy comparison: https://www.diffchecker.com/tl1PNB4S

So the problem spot is obvious

[floral quarry]

so now the big question, how to i change it ?

[lament prairie]

Usually it’s delete and respawn, the other things that get shuffled mostly can be ignored

[calm spindle]

Not if it happens repeatedly and mid game though.

Then you have to address whatever mod is causing the shuffle.

[lament prairie]

Fair, I meant more like it’s hard to fix gift tastes

[floral quarry]

Ok, had a look using look up anything. It seems their gift taste is the same

Does that mean the items requested from quests will be fine ?

[calm spindle]

Not necessarily, its often one or a few Mod's items that are shuffled.

But you can cancel and restart the quests usually

[floral quarry]

Screw it, I’m just gonna have to roll up my sleep and respawn everything

and oh boi, we were HOARDER…

Cheers the help btw @calm spindle

[cloud crown]

I cant use ui info suite 2 on steam but ican in the files anyone know why this is happening

[shy orbit]

do you mean that it doesn't work when you launch the game from steam?

[cloud crown]

yeah

[shy orbit]

have you set the launch options in steam? https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Steam

[cloud crown]

yes

[shy orbit]

!log then

[native dragon]

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

[cloud crown]

https://smapi.io/log/3b0a351bafd1463a9b7bcad34a366ace

[shy orbit]

looks like it's an old version that doesn't work anymore. this should work https://github.com/Annosz/UIInfoSuite2/releases

get the file named UIInfoSuite2.zip

[cloud crown]

I tryed the pre release and the newest but none worked?

[shy orbit]

in what way? they didn't load at all or some other problem

[civic quartz]

Pls need help 1st time modder using nmm mods are active but I only have 1 problem. When I click launch custom stardew valley I get and error “ no custom launch command has been set” pls

[lament prairie]

!launchoptions might be your problem

[native dragon]

If you're using Steam or GOG on Windows, you will need to set your launch options in order for Steam/GOG to automatically launch with SMAPI. The SMAPI installer will tell you what to set as the launch options when it completes (green text). You can find instructions (with screenshots) on how to do that here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Configure_your_game_client

[civic quartz]

Thanks

[cloud crown]

it gave the same error as last time

[tribal spear]

Hi! I wanted to ask if anyone knows if the SVE or Ridgewater mod changes when the community center opens?? It is day 10 in my game and idk how I can check if its the mod or a setting I did (Nvm apparently I just havent entered at the right time for the past 5 days somehow)

[shy orbit]

make sure that you're installing the correct version i guess. currently the installed ui info suite doesn't seem to be the github release

[shy orbit]

have you fulfilled the native conditions for it To open the Community Center, the player must enter Pelican Town from the Bus Stop on a day when it is not raining, from Spring 5th onward, between 8:00 am and 1:00 pm.

[tribal spear]

Yeah somehow I kept missing the time Which is weird cause I feel like I have been doing all those conditions?? But I also read Grandpa letter finally too

[regal hatch]

[SMAPI] - Objects\Amethyst Cookie because it contains files, but none of them are manifest.json.

i have a tonne of errors like this. im using all the ppja kits for recipes and trees etc and i have no idea how to fix this can someone please help

[keen crow]

How are you installing your mods? Manually or through a mod manager?

!log also

[native dragon]

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

[regal hatch]

how do i attach my log? i wasnt sure which mod manager to trust so i did everything manually, any recommendations are welcome 🙂

[keen crow]

Says in the above link

[regal hatch]

oops sorry i'll click that now, im so new to modding

i cant figure out how to get it up

to youtube 🥲

[keen crow]

The instructions at the top didn't help?

[fading summit]

how do i mod in ambient lighting for a mod?

[rare quest]

character event or map?

[fading summit]

a map so i can have lightinh in the greenhouse

[rare quest]

The map must be indoors. You can add to the map properties like this:

[regal hatch]

like a dummy i forgot to do the run command

[keen crow]

How'd you do that

[rare quest]

You'll want to look up RGB on google so you know what colors you're getting.

[fading summit]

how do i change it like how to get to the menu

i want the light to work like the windows in the greenhouse that is vanilla

[rare quest]

click that button in tiled

[regal hatch]

by being a complete noob. first time playing stardew on a computer and first time modding. i am baby

the mods are extracted wrongly, all the Objects directories should be inside the folders that begin with [JA]

[split scroll]

I have monster log lookup anywhere in my mods folder but when I'm in the game I can't look at my monster log help

[fading summit]

i want to have the outside affect the light levels in the greenhouse

[keen crow]

You're in the wrong channel for making mod shizzle

[fading summit]

o

[regal hatch]

oh heck.... that makes total sense!! which to i put where? or if anyone has a good manager to recommend im happy to learn 🙂

which do**

[keen crow]

Stardrop on Nexus is a great mod manager for Stardew

[shy orbit]

you can remove the Objects folder and reinstall the mod(s), just keep everything inside the folders they come in

oops

[split scroll]

I have monster log lookup anywhere in my mods folder but when I'm in the game I can't look at my monster log help

[shy orbit]

replied to the wrong message, but that was for you

[regal hatch]

ah i extracted everything straight to mods i think that may have been my error? looking into stardrop now too

[shy orbit]

extracting straight to the Mods folder should be fine, so something else went wrong probably. i'd just try it again though

[shy orbit]

[native dragon]

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

[regal hatch]

it did it again ahhhh

[regal hatch]

going to run the game after deleting the pesky random objects folder

[regal hatch]

it looks hard to add the mods to this im finding it a little overwhelming

[keen crow]

Top left corner is a add mod button, you just need to do that

[regal hatch]

the info page makes it look so over complicated 🥲

[regal hatch]

thanks for being so helpful and patient

[spare mist]

hello regarding Chest EX i am having 2 strange issues one is whenever i move an item using my Xbox controller the cursor snaps to the first item box in the chest with the mouse it dose not happen but im a controller player and second is the text is all off center it tells me a newer version of automate is installs and warns me about bugs but im hoping someone can help (CLIP: https://gyazo.com/2b91a0c5a9fdf1ec9764f8a55d0f234e) (PHOTO: https://gyazo.com/95886a8c23976efe3a7a8169b8901cac) (ERRORLOG: https://smapi.io/log/4b4368c0a5104668a4b479f8cf621153)

[storm tendon]

these okay to install on a year 2 winter file? I've backed up already just in case

[strange sky]

Is it possible to use mods on steam for Stardew? If yes, how?

[lament prairie]

!gettingstarted

[native dragon]

@strange sky 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

[lament prairie]

Is there something you’re worried about?

[storm tendon]

yeah, my save file going bye bye

also for some reason 8 of my mods didnt load

[strange sky]

Thank you!

[lament prairie]

!saves

[native dragon]

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

[lament prairie]

Make a backup if you’re worried

[coarse shard]

Every time I try to load the game this happens idk if it’s smapi or wha

[regal hatch]

I've tried everything and im still getting the same thing

[storm tendon]

These mods arn't loading

[coarse shard]

Happens when I’m trying to load into the farm

[keen crow]

Cause it's not a mod. Probably a xnb replacing portrait thingy

!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).

[storm tendon]

what about the others?

[keen crow]

Only see one red there

[shy orbit]

what's the mod? (i have to leave soon though, but others can help too)

[tardy stream]

does anyone know if SVE or RSV edit the vanilla gift tastes?

[winter ruin]

i'm getting around to doing this. i have the two instances of sdv open, with the co op farm open on one of them, but the other instance is giving connection failed. should i keep trying or is there something specific i have to do to join myself?

gonna see where the heck my controller went actually

[tardy stream]

like for example linus doesn't like foragables anymore and caroline doesn't like daffodils

[winter ruin]

nvm controller is fighting me 😰 damn ds4 + no bluetooth

[calm spindle]

I believe RSV just adds to them

Not sure about SVE

[winter ruin]

day pass worked fine once, going to try hosting a marriage ceremony now to see if that was the cause

[calm spindle]

Oh others were having a similar issue with Lance I think, theres some discussion in the SVE discord but no solution

the missing box thing should be fixed by a host restart. We suspect its actually a Content Patcher issue.

[winter ruin]

oh..? it was sophia who was being married by the other player

[calm spindle]

For what its worth I couldnt repro it

Marrying lance worked fine for the farmhand when i tested it

Also in the future, you can use something called nucleus coop for hosting multiple instances on the same pc

It does specifically support sdv

[winter ruin]

marriage ceremony worked just fine.... yeup

gdi

gonna try the other save

[calm spindle]

Welcome to the wonderful world of difficult to reproduce mp bugs

[winter ruin]

THERE

now i... dont know what to do

so yeah, no crashes, just stuck

player on host screen is just stuck in their cabin

i tried progressing another day; the stuck player is counted as awake

closed the other instance and the game seems to save just fine, closing and reopening the farm session loads everything fine. this is bad

[proven thicket]

Does modifying any json asset item causes json scramble?

[winter ruin]

host log
https://smapi.io/log/cdd4ca250508484ba59f0b3e33faa955

player log
https://smapi.io/log/f13a0ee9e5c34811ac7693a0d19bba93
threw in patch summaries for good measure but sorry if that clogs it up actually.. 😰

[proven thicket]

I need to know because cola is cooking item with no recipe.

[winter ruin]

i guess for the other two players its just... no sophia marriage. marrying magnus (sve wizard) works just fine. might try to see if the same happens with lance on the safe save, but for now im hungry as hell probably not actually. i've never seen ginger island before

[wet fog]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[proven thicket]

how to find save?

[robust bison]

!saves

[native dragon]

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

[proven thicket]

anyways, good to know my recipe collect didn't suffer from json scramble after doing this.

[calm spindle]

Ah sorry just saw this, 🤷

You should definitely post in the sve discord

[winter ruin]

alright! if anything else we'll either trudge on or start from the safe save

[calm spindle]

Theres a chance it could be related to that flower bug?

Which will be fixed in a hotfix soon.

But I doubt it.

[winter ruin]

i believe that hotfix was put out just an hour ago or so! its related to the new crops added in the previous update having the same name as a crop from mizu's flowers

i have a longshot crack theory that involves having the player divorce and mind wipe sophia but i doubt it'll work. but i want to try just for fun

[calm spindle]

Oh, also, try dating another character before marrying Sophia if possible.

Yall didnt get the mermaid pendant in any unusual way, did you?

[winter ruin]

as far a im aware no, my friend got it from the mariner on a rainy day as usual

[calm spindle]

As that was the issue people were having with Lance, it wouldnt even give them the mermaid pendant.

[winter ruin]

getting a bit busy in a game im playing rn but i'll try to keep responding

[calm spindle]

Yeah no rush, also might be worth noting if the player marrying Sophia was dating anyone else.

If you want, ping me in the sve discord and I will link to the previous marriage issues I saw.

[karmic spear]

Anyone know why this is happening on stardew valley expanded for my file?

[rare quest]

Update your farm files

[spring heron]

Im using the More Quests mod and this is a quest I have and when I try to give leah the driftwood she takes it as a gift instead? Yes I have the most recent download, yes I stacked 5 driftwood when right clicking to give it to her, what could be going wrong?

[winter ruin]

nope. how would i go about taking control of another persons character in a session? as it says the character is claimed by someone else

in case i cant get a hold of the other player--and for future reference too

[calm spindle]

Oh well I just log in as them on steam or whatever platform they use.

On another PC

And troubleshoot using both

Not sure if there's an easier way, MP games usually just ask what player you want to play as when joining even without the storefront running

(at least when connecting via direct ip)

[winter ruin]

ah! unfortunately my laptop is busted so i'll just have to drag my friend into debugging once we're done in another game

[naive drum]

For some reason despite saying 5 the quest actually wants 10.

[strange sky]

Should I download smapi from nexus or direct download?

[rare quest]

Doesn't matter. Whichever is easier for you I suppose.

[naive drum]

Both work

[rare quest]

I usually install SMAPI straight from its website.

[strange sky]

Then I’ll try that

[spring heron]

Thank you :D

Will try when I get 10!

[strange sky]

Should I do the automatic install or manual

Since I don’t know about these things idk what I should do

[lament prairie]

run the installer

[strange sky]

How exactly, sorry, I seriously don’t know about these things

[lament prairie]

are you on windows?

[strange sky]

I read the read me thing

Yes I am

[lament prairie]

do not read the readme

!gettingstarted read this

[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

[lament prairie]

the readme is for manual install, which you should only do if you have to

99% of people do not have to

[naive drum]

Basically you take the SMAPI installer folder out of the zip and click Install on Windows.bat

[lament prairie]

and having to is often an indication something is wrong

[strange sky]

Okay

[spring heron]

Can anyone tell me if these mods are incompatible to each other? In the compatibility of Better Balance it mentions SVE & Longevity both change similar things, so does that mean it's incompatible?
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8141
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3753
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/649

[strange sky]

Should I press on the Install on windows? I mean it’s obvious

[spring heron]

(Sorry I should've waited till the person before me was done)

[strange sky]

But this isn’t my pc so I don’t wanna do something wrongly

[naive drum]

Yes

[strange sky]

Extract all next?

[naive drum]

You didn't take it out of the zip first?

[strange sky]

Since it says that for it to work properly I should extract all of it

I’m sorry but I really don’t know about all of this

[naive drum]

!gettingstarted

[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

[strange sky]

[naive drum]

and yes, you need to take things out of zips for them to work

[strange sky]

Si should I press extract all?

[naive drum]

Yes

[strange sky]

Okay

Should they be extracted into the smapi installer?

I know these must be very very dumb question

[naive drum]

What I do is take the entire SMAPI installer folder out of the zip and then run the .bat in the non-zipped file

[strange sky]

But I seriously don’t know what I’m doing

[naive drum]

As a general rule zip files are usually entirely for storage, and unless something specifically says otherwise, the contents need to be taken out of the zip to function.

[strange sky]

I’m really sorry for all the trouble in advance

Si should I extract all of it into the smapi installer folder?

[naive drum]

If you're asking the question I think you're asking, yes.

Although your wording implies the "SMAPI Installer folder" already exists like you copied the contents of the zip out and then went right back to doing things with the zip

[strange sky]

No no

I just pressed extract all and it automatically put the smapi installer folder to where it should extract it to

Like the destination for what I’m extracting

[naive drum]

Ah yeah

Yeah you do that

[strange sky]

I feel like I’m giving you a lot of trouble

Sorry

[naive drum]

Have you read the getting started guide?

[strange sky]

Yes

But I seriously need like a person telling me if what I’m doing is correct

Since I don’t wanna do anything wrong and I really need like a irl person to tell me so that I understand

[naive drum]

OK

[strange sky]

And now?

[naive drum]

Go into the folder you just made and run the .bat

[lament prairie]

Longevity has weird incompatibilities

I can't really explain them

You can give it a shot and see how it goes

[naive drum]

Longevity also has done really weird things like make it look like a mod that clashes with it actually was clashing with itself

[honest yacht]

how do i make one mod overtake another? I have one mod that recolours the ground and one that changes the foilage, but the one that changes the foilage is only sometimes the one that takes priority. how can i guarentee the foilage one loads second?

[lament prairie]

!loadorder

[native dragon]

When two mods both edit dialogue or images, whichever mod loads last "wins" and is the one you see in the game. In order to change the load order of mods, you can add false dependencies, see here for details: https://stardewmodding.miraheze.org/wiki/Tutorial:_How_to_Add_a_False_Dependency_for_Load_Orders

[spring heron]

So maybe get rid of it? It maybe does clash with Expanded, ?

[naive drum]

And for a while it was breaking the camera??

And yeah i think it does clash with expanded

[spring heron]

Okay, what about the better balance mod?

[strange sky]

Im really sorry to say this, I know it’s very very dumb, but how?

[spring heron]

Does it clash with expanded?

[strange sky]

[lament prairie]

no idea

[naive drum]

Double click it like with any other thing you want to run

[lament prairie]

probably someone asked on the mod page

have you checked the description and comments?

[spring heron]

orz

Yes it's fine

[strange sky]

I did but it goes to the installing on Linux Mac windows etc

[naive drum]

You clicked the Install on Windows.bat?

[spring heron]

It actually recommends using Expanded with this mod. :x I read it when I DLed it but I am ridding my incompatible mods cuz I stupidly added a few and didn't scroll all the way

Oh wait actually

[strange sky]

I

No

[naive drum]

Sounds from the wording that so long as you don't turn on SVE's Lower Profit Margins they're compatible

[strange sky]

So now should I download it?

[spring heron]

Yep, just read the entire paragraph

[naive drum]

Can you screenshot the inside of your SMAPI installer folder?

[strange sky]

Ok

[naive drum]

Because if you downloaded and extracted SMAPI the .bat is downloaded and there are no further downloads involved in installing SMAPI itself?

[strange sky]

I’m on phone in Discord so sorry for quality

[naive drum]

Didn't you just extract it? Go to the extracted folder

[winter ruin]

last report on the issue before i re-report it on the sve discord;
divorce and mind wipe didnt work unfortunately. and, the game doesnt seem to be saving on day ends. just skips

[strange sky]

Would it be the internal file folder?

[naive drum]

No?

[strange sky]

The idk

[naive drum]

Looks like you put it in Downloads - so go to Downloads and click on the SMAPI installer folder that isn't a zip

[hardy bolt]

hey everyone, i'm not sure if this is the right channel to post in but i was wondering if anyone does mod commissions? my dog got loose while i was away on vacation & unfortunately passed. I'm looking for someone who could add her to the game for me so i can still give her love everyday in stardew. feel free to DM or or reply here. thank you in advance ❤️

[naive drum]

The one of type File folder, with the folder icon instead of the zip icon

[strange sky]

Ok

Now?

[naive drum]

Double click Install on Windows.bat

[strange sky]

I did

[naive drum]

The one inside the folder, not the one inside the zip

[naive drum]

Yep, follow the instructions in that box. Make sure to read them

[strange sky]

So, I should press 1 since I have the game in steam correct?

[naive drum]

yep

[strange sky]

Okay it’s downloading

[naive drum]

Installing. The installer doesn't connect to the internet

You can run the installer offline

[strange sky]

Done so now, should I go to steam and set it up?

Wait let me send a pic

[naive drum]

Yep! Highlight the launch option string in the installer, from the first quotation mark to the last % sign inclusive, and copy it with ctrl C

Then paste it into your steam launch options with ctrl V

[strange sky]

What should I do here?

[naive drum]

Do what I said in this message

[strange sky]

From the “ :\ till the %?

[naive drum]

Yep!

[strange sky]

Okay

[naive drum]

Here's mine for comparision (the file-path part can get very different depending on where you put your Steam games): "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

[strange sky]

Okay which is the launch option in steam?

[naive drum]

Go to steam. Right click Stardew Valley. Click Properties

In the window that pops up there is a box labelled Launch Options

[spare mist]

can anyone help me at all?

[strange sky]

Uuuh which should be properties

[honest yacht]

i've read this and looked at the files but they already have the load order set yet it's not loading in the order i want it to still?

[strange sky]

Or how should it look exactly?

[naive drum]

The Properties item in the menu that pops up

[strange sky]

Like in game?

[naive drum]

The Automate one just means that Automate updated more recently than chestex

[naive drum]

No, you right-click the Stardew Valley steam thing instead of clicking Play

This thing. You right click this thing

[strange sky]

Ooh

[spare mist]

umm that dose not tell me how to fix the bugs

[strange sky]

Now?

[naive drum]

You paste in the launch options into the box labelled Launch Options

[strange sky]

How do I paste?

[naive drum]

Ctrl V

[strange sky]

How can I se the whole thing to make sure I pasted only the needed things?

[naive drum]

Arrow keys

Or click and drag

[strange sky]

From the first “ all the way to the % correct?

[naive drum]

Yep

[strange sky]

Done then!

[naive drum]

Should start with a " and end with a %

Good! Now when you press Play, the game will launch via SMAPI.

[strange sky]

Thanks man, now I’ll need to learn how to add mods and all that stuff

[naive drum]

You install mods by downloading them, opening the zip file, and dragging the contents into the Mods folder SMAPI made in Stardew Valley's game folder.

(If you're having trouble finding that, here's the part of the Getting Started guide that has instructions for finding it: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Find_your_game_folder)

(The Getting Started guide's Install Mods section also has a picture showing what an installed mod looks like.)

[strange sky]

So can I close this now?

[naive drum]

yep!

[strange sky]

Thanks a lot man

I really appreciate your patience with me haha

So, for mods, I just search them up install them and add them to the mods folder?

[naive drum]

Search them up, download, and drag them from their zips to the mods folder to install them yese

Good sites for mods are Nexus and Moddrop

[strange sky]

Okay thanks! If I don’t understand anything I hope it won’t be too much trouble for me to keep asking..

Because I seriously don’t wanna trouble anyone more than I already have

[naive drum]

A tip for finding mods on Nexus: if you go to the mod page of a framework mod (a mod that makes it easier for other mods to do things) and expand the Requirements tab by clicking on it, it will have two sections: the first section Things This Mod Requires, and the second section Things That Require This Mod. the second one is basically a list of mods of a specific type

and yeah just come in here and ask

[strange sky]

Okay thanks a lot!

I don’t know how to thank you for all your help and patience

Oof, I’m back in just some seconds, mod manager or manual download

[naive drum]

Manual

The 'mod manager' is basically "get Vortex to do it" and Vortex is, uh, bad for Stardew

it relatively frequently fails to properly download all the files

[strange sky]

Okay thanks for the info!

[naive drum]

the worst incident i saw of that was someone who installed a whole bunch of mods with Vortex and then was like "why isn't it working" and uploaded their log here and vortex had discarded or failed to download vital files in fourty mods

Oh, no. Fourty-one.

[strange sky]

Why isn’t it downloading content patcher or how can I see if it’s downloading

[wet fog]

So i went to the reddit page for addressing my issue with Marnie continuously bringing me my "new" pet as I thought it had something to do with the SVE update. They had told me that it does not look like it is a SVE issue. My pet is appearing in random locations now. Any suggestions?

[naive drum]

Check your downloads folder

[winter ruin]

did we just fix it... (edit: yeah, on the safe save, everything works. but my friends dont want to roll back 2 weeks so we're just gonna keep trudging through the bugged save. ultimately i don't think i'll be reporting this to sve discord at all...)

[naive drum]

If you're using Firefox there's a symbol to the right of the address bar that has a list of stuff that's been recently downloaded, and it turns into a circular progress indicator if a download is in progress

[strange sky]

Well I need to log in to nexus ig

[naive drum]

Stardew mods tend to have small filesizes, so the download is very quick

oh yeah, that too.

[strange sky]

I’ll just use the account I made for steam since it’s the only thing I use it for

Now I’ve downloaded it, how do I add it to folder it should go to

[naive drum]

Open the Mods folder in one file explorer window and the zip in another and click-and-drag the contents of the zip out into the Mods folder

[strange sky]

Uuuh where can I see the mods folder

Im still new to this so I need to learn literally at baby steps

[naive drum]

Link to some instructions here!

[strange sky]

Okay ty!

[naive drum]

It's in the Stardew Valley folder, and that link shows you multiple different ways to find your Stardew Valley folder.

[spring heron]

Anyone know if this is compatible with 1.5 https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2894?tab=description

[strange sky]

Thanks a lot, I’d give you a hug if I could

Now the last info that I need, how can I decide if I want or don’t want to use the mods in a world?

[naive drum]

That's relatively complicated
The simplest way, if you're talking about unmodded vs modded only, would be to launch the game via Steam for modded and via the Stardew Valley exe in the Stardew Valley folder for unmodded.

[strange sky]

[naive drum]

Mods are only applied to a save if the save is actually loaded in-game, and any changes to a save are only saved to disk when you sleep to advance the calender

The base Stardew Valley exe doesn't have SMAPI, so no mods; the launch options thing was making Steam launch SMAPI.exe instead of Stardew Valley.exe, so it can apply the mods

the more complicated method is mod groups

!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

[calm spindle]

You could try starting 2 instances of SDV with the storefront launcher closed.

Unless its gamepass/xbox, I dont think it will let you do that.

[strange sky]

Okay, so, to make sure, I just add the mods I download to the mods folder correct?

[naive drum]

Yep

[strange sky]

Okay thanks

Again, this may be annoying but really, thanks for all the help

Uuuh, I can’t see the mod being applied

[naive drum]

Which mod was it?

[strange sky]

Seasonal cute characters

[naive drum]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[strange sky]

Wait

Maybe I did the wrong one let me see again

I noticed it said multiplayer

So maybe it wasn’t the core file

I’ll try again

Nope

[faint ibex]

does grandpa evaluation count modded npcs or only the original

[naive drum]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[naive drum]

The SMAPI log will allow us to troubleshoot

[strange sky]

Wait I see the problem now

It says I need content patcher so I probably didn’t install that one correctly

[strange sky]

Sadly I don’t have Discord on the pc since It’s not mine

[naive drum]

OK so the next best thing is, I'll give you a link to an annotated log to help you read it

[frozen rock]

isthere a way to install smapi usinng vortex

[strange sky]

Is it possible that I downloaded content patcher incorrectly?

[rugged timber]

I'm trying to figure out where the game is getting the idea a certain bed needs to be used with the farmhouse tiles sheet instead of the bed that... you know, is actually on the tilesheet... I need a drink

[naive drum]

Can you screenshot your Mods folder?

[strange sky]

Yes

[naive drum]

1. You need to uninstall the MP version
2. You didn't unzip Content Patcher, so it's not installed

[strange sky]

How do I unzip it

Mp?

[naive drum]

Multiplayer. The Multiplayer version and the non-Multiplayer version are a "pick one" deal

[strange sky]

Oh

[naive drum]

And you unzip Content Patcher the same way you unzipped Seasonal Cute Characters

[strange sky]

I didn’t unzip it tho?

[naive drum]

You clearly did? It's not in a zip

[strange sky]

Or at least I don’t know how if I did

[naive drum]

You opened the zip and dragged the contents out.

[strange sky]

Hmm

Ooh

I see

It’s unzipped now

[naive drum]

good!

[strange sky]

I’m getting smarter wooo

Lol

[naive drum]

you might also want to install Generic Mod Config Menu so you can change the settings of mods in-game

[strange sky]

Okay! Thanks

[hoary bane]

!modmanagerbugs

[native dragon]

Vortex (Nexus) and ModDrop both are mod managers that can help you keep your mods up to date. However, they can cause bizarre issues and are difficult to troubleshoot.

If you're using a mod manager and ask for help troubleshooting, we probably can't help you if the issue is related to the mod manager. You can try asking the mod manager servers for help instead.

[hoary bane]

Also, no.

The is installer needs to be run separately.

(I think)

[spring heron]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2544
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9972?tab=files&file_id=46468

So with dialogue mods I know Canon Friendly and farmerjacks are built to compliment each other, does anyone know how much clashing haywrites overhauls might cause between the two? Or does anyone know if the two above are enjoyable enough (I also have expanded) to not worry about more depth to the side/non bachelor characters?

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/users/43516662?tab=user+files

[hoary bane]

You'll get a few half dialogues but nothing too bothersome.

[azure shuttle]

I need to reset CBJ. I made a mistake of assigning the keyboard button of "P" to the start button of a controller to open it and It's now allowing me to open it now. Is there a way to fix this?

[naive drum]

Change the button to something else in the config.json ?

[alpine ginkgo]

You could just open the config file and reset the hotkey.

[naive drum]

with any text editor

[azure shuttle]

How do I do that? I honestly Don't know.

[naive drum]

Open the .json with a text editor like notepad

and change OpenMenuKey from P to something else

[azure shuttle]

that's way eaiser than I thought it would be.

Thank you

[wet fog]

Here's my issue I've been dealing with recently. Would anyone know my first steps to fixing this?

[rugged timber]

ok I have a question, does the farmhouse map not pull the default double bed from the farmhouse tiles tilessheet anymore? I have a CP farmhouse mod I've been using for a long time, and it's had no issue, but now it's not reading the bed from that tilesheet, instead it seems to be reading it from the furniture tilesheet. I'm still troubleshooting and will hopefully work out this issue on my own, 'cause that's how I learn, but if anyone else has already encountered this, any info would be helpful.

[naive drum]

What's the issue?

[naive drum]

Beds got changed in 1.5

[wet fog]

My pet is appearing in random locations.

[naive drum]

Oh the cat isn't supposed to be there huh

Do you have any mods that change pet behavior?

[wet fog]

No technically thats my pet LOL

[naive drum]

(I'm personally dealing with an issue where my pet is spawning out of bounds for some reason)

[wet fog]

Marnie’s event with the adopting the pet has been happening since last night

And then the cat appears in random places

I’m not using any mods that alter pet behavior

I can post my log if needed

[naive drum]

Yeah, a log would be a good idea

[wet fog]

https://smapi.io/log/c030af64a78c4cfeb21d20b69af7e8a1

[lament prairie]

Beds are real now, they can be moved around and are actual furniture

[rugged timber]

ok so, on the farmhouse tilesheet, I can ignore the bed, and use the furniture sheet instead?

sorry for the delay, I was finishing cooking dinner

ok I think the TV doesn't load from the farmhouse tilesheet either, is that also pulled from furniture? I don't think I've ever messed with this before, so I don't know if it's always been that way, since, as you said regarding the bed, you've been able to move it...

[cloud dagger]

hello, i was wondering if I could get some help with an error I ran into when playing multiplayer. I linked my SMAPI log for reference. The error I'm running into is making it so that I can't load into my friend's farm. https://smapi.io/log/5090f29d3ebf43688b07873f3e8dcf57

[rugged timber]

I'm learning how to mod all over again, and it makes my brain hurt

[dire fractal]

The mod says that, since you're not the host, it won't do anything. So I'm guessing it's safe to take it out for multiplayer

Have you tried that- and if so did it work?

[lament prairie]

Yup, TV also real furniture. Also if you're making mods, feel free to hop on over to #making-mods-general

[rugged timber]

Well, I'm making, but personal use, but yeah, prolly should be over there instead lol, thanks ❤️

[hidden cave]

hello so uh, i've been getting this error whenever i tried to launch sv (i'm on windows, modded, version is 1.5.6), i looked around a bit and turns out SMAPI has a file that's being detected as a virus for some reason (this happened after i installed SVE and the necessary mods)
i tried reinstalling SMAPI but that didn't really do much lol, here's the screenshot anyways if it helps

[naive drum]

!reset in case something else got messed up, and there are ways to add Smapi as an exception to your antivirus

[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 :)

[spring heron]

Hi I amusing pierre's immersive shop, and I want to use the recolor of rustic interiors, but can someone guide me what to replace or how to put in the recolor?
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9127?tab=description
I thought maybe just replacing manifest and the asset shelf picture but that caused an error

[naive drum]

Oh do not replace the manifest ever

[spring heron]

Pff, no wonder I was having an issue then ;

[naive drum]

Redownload Immersive Shop and the rustic interior recolour from that page and put them both in the mods folder

[spring heron]

In the same folder or separate?

[naive drum]

Separate

[spring heron]

I mean, like this, or--

Okay so recolor goes in mods and not there

[naive drum]

Oh yeah that also works, you can in fact put it in the Immersive Shops subfolder

I thought you were talking about putting it like...inside [STF] Immersive Shops or something

[topaz olive]

Fixed it by re-installing 'content patcher ' ( sorry for doing this out of the blue)

[solid solar]

hello could someone help me with smapi, it doesn't seem to be running on my computer

[tribal notch]

did it run before or is this the first time you've installed it?

[solid solar]

first time installed, i tried following a guide but my labtop said that the file was unzipped

smapi is a zip file right?

[lament prairie]

You need to run the installer

Not just unzip

[solid solar]

https://smapi.io/

this website?

do i need to download more?

[lament prairie]

once you unzip, there should be an installer inside the zip

run that installer

[solid solar]

how do i unzip

i have to down load smapi first right?

[strange sky]

How do I copy my advanced world so that It’s safe?

[lament prairie]

!saves

[native dragon]

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

[tribal notch]

yes, download smapi first
can you paste a screenshot of the file you downloaded?

[solid solar]

now what?

[tribal notch]

now you need to change your Steam launch options

does the guide you're using have instructions for that?

[solid solar]

the stardew wiki

??

[lament prairie]

!launchoptions

[native dragon]

If you're using Steam or GOG on Windows, you will need to set your launch options in order for Steam/GOG to automatically launch with SMAPI. The SMAPI installer will tell you what to set as the launch options when it completes (green text). You can find instructions (with screenshots) on how to do that here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Configure_your_game_client

[solid solar]

ok

now the text is in the game

oh wait i forgot to make a back up

[solid solar]

do i need winrar for mods?

[tribal notch]

generally no

[calm spindle]

I dont think any mods are rar or 7z

[calm spindle]

Oh yeah, that zip you sent us seems to work, but I havent double checked it yet

For the market day recipe seller fix

Havent actually checked pikas yet

[tribal notch]

excellent

[solid solar]

just unzip the file and put it in then?

[tribal notch]

yes

more: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Install_mods

[solid solar]

my game still looks the same

i downloaded better ranching and the animals don't have the hearts

sorry wrong mod

[naive drum]

Some mods are but 7zip is better than winrar

[calm spindle]

Yeah, I generally recommend the 7zip zstd fork

There are other GUIs out there though, just use pretty much anything but winrar

[solid solar]

ok so i did it wrong

because my game is not running the mods

[naive drum]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[solid solar]

how

how do i open smapi?

[naive drum]

Can we see your launch options?

to see why it's not launching when you launch the game via Steam

[solid solar]

oh wait

i was just launching the game from steam not the local files

now better ranching is working

[naive drum]

If you set your launch options correctly, launching the game from Steam will launch SMAPI

[solid solar]

well it didn't so did

clicked stardewModdingAPI and it ran the mods

[naive drum]

Yes, that is one way to launch SMAPI

[solid solar]

it launch the game

not smapi

[naive drum]

It launches SMAPI which launches the game

[solid solar]

so it's not suppost to do that?

i don't just why steam is not launching smapi

[naive drum]

Okay to clarify:
Launching SMAPI directly from StardewModdingAPI.exe: works, launches SMAPI which launches the game
Launching Stardew Valley via Steam with correctly set launch options (taken from the end screen of the SMAPI installer): works, launches SMAPI which launches the game
Launching Stardew Valley via Steam with improperly set or blank launch options: may or may not work, but if it does work you get the vanilla game, not modded

Your launch option string is this

[solid solar]

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe

right?

[naive drum]

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

Whole thing, quotation marks and %command% included

[solid solar]

ok

now it working

thank you

[shell zephyr]

Does anyone know how to fix this? I cook one meal and this appears and it won't let me cook anything else. https://smapi.io/log/7b6e02a70f8d4fc0984a1b83709f5cfd

[strange sky]

Does anyone know how to copy a world as backup so that it doesn’t get corrupted if I uninstall mods and stuff?

[shy orbit]

!saves you copy the save folder somewhere

[native dragon]

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

[shy orbit]

there is also an automated backup tool on nexus, can't remember the name though

[alpine ginkgo]

Advanced Save Backup, maybe?

[shy orbit]

sounds right

[strange sky]

Uuuh did I add too many mods or something?

It didn’t respond

When I try to enter load it stops responding

[alpine ginkgo]

With a lot of mods, it can take a couple minutes to load into the game.

[strange sky]

But I mean once I’m in the game

When I try to enter load to enter created worlds it stops responding

[ornate tide]

yes thats normal too

[alpine ginkgo]

Yeah, even once in the game, load times are gonna be long.

[strange sky]

Could it be because I can update 3 mods?

[alpine ginkgo]

How many mods are you running altogether?

(I dunno if updating would help, but it never hurts to update your mods!)

[strange sky]

30-40 somewhere maybe

[alpine ginkgo]

If they're big ones, then it's possible that it could just be the amount you're running.

[strange sky]

Oh

It worked

I just had to wait lmaooo

[alpine ginkgo]

Yeah! There are people here who run 1000+ mods, wait times are completely normal. Lol.

[strange sky]

LOOL

That’s crazy

[naive drum]

There's some optimization upgrades in the works, I'm using the alpha and beta versions of a few mods as a result

(809 mods here)

[heady locust]

hi there, not super new to stardew, but it's been a minute since i've played/modded. i restarted completely, smapi says all my mods should be working fine, but as soon as i'm done creating a character and hit "ok", my game freezes completely and i'm not able to play. https://smapi.io/log/d30d5a752525429e901ee33d2c844308

[naive drum]

How long did you wait?

Ridgeside and SVE are both big and take a lot of time to load

[heady locust]

ya know, not very long, but i assumed as soon it was just broken, let me try to wait a bit longer, i'm pretty impatient xD

[naive drum]

There's some alpha and beta mod versions that can help with the performance, especially with loading ridgeside and SVE

[cyan tapir]

so i got a really cool looking mr qi portrait but its hd and has more uhh expressions

is there something i should do to make it work

[ornate tide]

likely for a mr qi dialogue expansion

extra portraits arent game breaking or anything, you just wont see them

[cyan tapir]

[vapid crest]

mr qi you say

dialogue expansion, you say

[dusk isle]

I'm trying to download SVE on Nexus, but it says I have to have an account bc it's a big file, is there anywhere to find it for free or no?

[vapid crest]

you need an account to download anything on nexus, but you dont need premium or anything

basic account is free

[vapid crest]

hello i would like to see the portraits. i might be able to do something with dependencies to integrate them into my mr qi dialogue expansion pack (funny coincidence, that)

if you dont mind ofc

[dusk isle]

Thank you!

Do I want to do the manual download or get the mod manager thingy?

[vapid crest]

i’d suggest manual bc mod managers are notoriously buggy for sdv for some reason

do you have smapi

[dusk isle]

I have achieved downloading smapi and putting it with my Steam account

Now it's mod time

Oh jesus it's telling me I need like 10 more files

[dusk isle]

I'm trying to get SVE and it's telling me I need more than SMAPI, do I just get all of these files then?

[vapid crest]

yep! ik its…a process lol

[dusk isle]

Okay, just making sure I'm on the right track, ty ty

[vapid crest]

but its worth it, sve’s a really cool mod

[dusk isle]

Okay another dumb question, how do you know when a file has been unzipped?

[vapid crest]

are you on windows or mac?

or linux

[dusk isle]

I am on windows, I think I have done it, there was just one file that didn't need to be unzipped so I was confusion

Ty so much for helping btw <3

[vapid crest]

no worries <3

if you have your thingy set to show file types then a zipped folder will end in .zip

[dusk isle]

Ah perfect ty

[regal hatch]

im having an issue with my villager page not picking up that ive spoken to people, it wont display their names for some reason. does anybody know if this is a bug?

its making it super hard to figure out who that last intro person is

[dusk isle]

Do mods like immediately affect any save file you have or do you need to make a new one to be sure it worked?

[ornate tide]

they enable immediately

any save will work fine

[ornate tide]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[dusk isle]

smapi-internal is the file for all of the smapi stuff right? Like i'm all good?

[ornate tide]

yes? Im not completely sure what youre asking, but dont touch that

it should be fine

[dusk isle]

There's just a lot of folders 😅 I'm just hoping that's the only one I need lol

Okay time to test my first ever mod, wish me luck

Oh no

[unique wind]

Mods will apply immediately, but save files are only written into overnight (or immediately for new save)

[dusk isle]

Steam says I'm "missing an executable" for Stardew Valley

uhh what now

[ornate tide]

can you copy and paste your launch options?

[dusk isle]

I'm gonna be really annoying and ask what you mean by launch options

Oh wait I see

Okay I fixed it, I was just panicking <3

[long brook]

relax

[dusk isle]

Yes, telling someone to relax always helps :)

[long brook]

you're new to modding. right?

[dusk isle]

Very new

[long brook]

just read all instruction first then follow those one by one

sometimes there are mods that require another mods so read carefully

[vapid crest]

It’s quite startling when you see something like “missing an executable” come up when you’ve been doing stuff with game files (“Oh no did i accidentally delete it????”), so i understand panicking

[dusk isle]

Okay, I launched SV and a smapi popup said all the mods were installed, but when I created a new character, no dice, same old SV no E

[vapid crest]

the E comes when you start the game up

like, load in

make character and press Ok

[dusk isle]

Yes, I did, I made a new character

Like im in the town and nothing changed

[vapid crest]

oh

[ornate tide]

!log I misunderstood

[native dragon]

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

[dusk isle]

HELL YES I FIXED IT

For some reason I had multiples of the same folder, with the same name so it was running no mods, so I had to move all my downloaded mods and now it's good

[ornate tide]

Are you currently in the game?

[orchid socket]

is there a mod that lets me buy tickets without pam

she wont go to thebl bus stop

[ornate tide]

well you can use this mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/12181

but pam not going to the bus stop is weird

[orchid socket]

thank you

she just stands nesr the water

!og if its an annoyance to you, I could maybe try to find which mod it is?

hey, so i was using this mod

idk what i did wrong

[naive drum]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[ornate tide]

look in the comments of that post, seems theres a problem with the manifest.json

[modest pike]

okay i changed some stuff in manifest.json

it works now, thank you!

i also got this:

but i dont see any update option

[summer swan]

You've to go to the mod pages to download the new versions if you want to update them.

[modest pike]

is it necessary?

[summer swan]

SMAPI only checks if there are newer versions available.

[modest pike]

ah okay ^^

[summer swan]

As for necessary: As far as I understood you don't have to run to Nexus within 10 seconds. If you have any issues with a mod: Update it asap. If everything works as intended: You can take your time. Of course: You're not getting new features of a mod until you update it.

[modest pike]

i get it now, thank you

[summer swan]

If you intend to start a new game: I would update all of them before starting.

[modest pike]

i see

[cyan tapir]

can someone help me with this https://smapi.io/log/b12b9db169384db1a475c252f70ef617

im trying out [CP] White Mage Linus but its not working

[naive drum]

Looks like the json file is invalid

[tribal notch]

did you edit the json or is it as you downloaded it?

[naive drum]

line 75, position 4855 (!) has something up with it

[cyan tapir]

Its as i downloaded it

It looks like the translation is off too

[naive drum]

yeah

[cyan tapir]

how do i find the position

[naive drum]

that's how many characters into the line it is

[summer swan]

You use an editor that shows not only line but position too.

[cyan tapir]

uhh

it says between 1 and 94?

[tribal notch]

you need to open assets/Data/Events.json

[cyan tapir]

yeah

[tribal notch]

the playMusic in the first line is 75:4855

[cyan tapir]

:0

i searched playMusic but its on line 85

[tribal notch]

oh, you're using the English version

[cyan tapir]

yeah

[tribal notch]

I don't have that

[cyan tapir]

do you need the files?

[acoustic pasture]

helloo sorry if this is not the proper place to send this but is there a mod that replaces the wooden bridges in hilltop/riverland farm?

[summer swan]

For hilltop there's one that replaces them with stone bridges.

[acoustic pasture]

oooh do you perhaps know the name of the mod? or where can I find it

[summer swan]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10788 <<- But it makes some other changes too (i.e. turning dirt into grass) as far as I can see.

[acoustic pasture]

ooh yeah I saw it too but I haven't downloaded it yet because I have other mods that change buildings and recolor mod, sadge :<

thank you for the help

[ornate tide]

What do you mean? It should be just the map, shouldnt have any recolors or buildings

[acoustic pasture]

ah in the images section of the mod you can see that the house and greenhouse has changed

[summer swan]

Oh. That's what you mean.

That's the issues when no "vanilla" pictures are added.

The farmhouse, greenhouse etc are a different mod.

Check the "Mods I am using"-part on the mod page. 😉

[cyan tapir]

i think im not doing this correctly

character seems to be a different thing from position

[summer swan]

Yes.

[acoustic pasture]

ooh I see now thank you so much for making it clear to me haha

[cyan tapir]

so in the purple bar the position says 43949

but when i make the position 4855, it goes to line 71

[summer swan]

Stella but I can't tell you the difference to be honest. I don't know about json. I just know it from Skyrim and there the compiler returns the column and not the position if something goes wrong.

[regal hatch]

has anybody had an issue with pjja pack crops refusing to be planted

[cyan tapir]

[summer swan]

Not the crying chicken. 😦

The error you get in the json online tool: Did you search for that exact part?

I mean "Linus/n wizardLetterLinus2/t".

Because that's the part having the error in it and should be somewhere in line 75.

[cyan tapir]

yeah but im not sure how to fix it

[naive drum]

You're using the JA version, right?

[cyan tapir]

i havent gotten to learning how events work

and honestly i did try but its confusing

[naive drum]

The separate downloads instead of the megapack, and for Farmer to Florist specifically the second most recent one instead of the most recent one?

[tribal notch]

if you would like to link me the files I will try and have a look

[summer swan]

I think it's less about events in general but more of a "wrong syntax / missing comma / something like that" thing.

[cyan tapir]

:0

[summer swan]

Maybe @tribal notch will find it. Sorry, I don't speak json. 😅

[cyan tapir]

oki ill just place the files somewhere

[regal hatch]

yeah!!

[regal hatch]

i believe so but id have to double check that

[regal hatch]

yeah all separate

[naive drum]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[naive drum]

Also make sure you're planting into tilled soil, in an area that allows for crop growth, in the correct season, onto a tile that is not already occupied by a hard to see plant

(yes i have made all those mistakes)

[regal hatch]

it was all tilled and plantable i promise

[naive drum]

are you trying to plant a trellis crop?

but also

[naive drum]

Garden Village and Elaho's Wedding Outfits are clashing as they both add Black Dress Pants and Flower Crown
pick which version of those items you want to keep and delete the file of the one from the other mod

Also, Better Fruit Trees doesn't work in 1.5.6 - switch to Fruit Tree Tweaks. And it looks like Even More Recipes has lost its manifest somehow - delete, redownload, and reinstall.

But the most important thing is getting rid of that JA Red Wall Of Death

[regal hatch]

ok ive done all that

lets hope it'll let me plant things

[shy sparrow]

does anyone know which mod is causing this error? It started when I right clicked my kitchen, and I got an error message saying an appliance is already cooking, but... I didn't thinking I had any such things? https://smapi.io/log/6ad54afe227340d9bd579115f1669051

and then when I reloaded the game the error didn't happen again

[dire fractal]

@tribal notch hey for Market Day beta, would it be fine to delete the random npc folder or will that break anything. Also sorry for the ping.

[naive drum]

This is a wild guess but what happens when you remove lux's food mod?

[shy sparrow]

hm... it should only be a retexture but yeah I'll try it

[tribal notch]

yes fine

[dire fractal]

Thank you

[tribal notch]

if you've already used it for a bit smapi will print some scary messages while it cleans up

it's fine

[dire fractal]

Gotcha

[floral quarry]

Trying to add ridgeside valley into an existing save, was wondering if there is anyway to integrate it into the game more naturally. For example, they won’t appear in the valley until we’ve met them in ridgeside, or an introduction quest just for the mod character.

[errant hornet]

Start a fresh save /j

[floral quarry]

Hosting a multiplayer game, too much blood, sweat and tears has gone into the save to restart

[brave adder]

Hey does anyone know, with Ridgeside Village, is there supposed to be custom music playing whenever you're visiting Ridgeside? Or just in certain locations/events? I have custom music turned on but so far it's all vanilla music

and idk if I did something wrong or what

[errant hornet]

Mostly RSV's own events, I think

But can be map music too

[chrome cosmos]

ridgeside only has music in the village during winter and fall for now

[chrome cosmos]

there isnt, no. its also not recommended to download on an existing save because it could cause a json shuffle and wont be as immersive

[errant hornet]

(did we have the json shuffle command here?)

!jsonshuffle

[native dragon]

A Json Shuffle is when your Json Assets items rearrange their numerical IDs or different players have different numerical IDs assigned to the same object. See here for details: https://stardewmodding.wiki/wiki/Json_Shuffle

Anytime you change your JA mods you can risk a shuffle. In multiplayer, you need to have exactly the same mods in exactly the same order as your friends.

Anytime you have a shuffle and then solve it, old objects may remain affected but new ones should be fine. You can sell or trash the old items, and spawn in new ones if needed with CJB item spawner.

[chrome cosmos]

ah we do!

oh no the link is wrong

[errant hornet]

The damn domain

[chrome cosmos]

https://stardewmodding.miraheze.org/wiki/Json_Shuffle updated link

[floral quarry]

If only there is a mod where it makes it so ridgeside isn't instantly unlocked. And you have to repair the cart, like how you do for the bus to desert and boat to island...

that will make the flow of story so much smoother...

[cyan tapir]

so

i started a new save with "skipstart" but now i dont have my pet

is there a way to get it back

i never got the cutscene where marnie was like "hey take this cat"

[orchid socket]

i heard u could load faster if u only load 1 core when setting affinity

which one do i turn on

[long brook]

It's for stuttering problem. Checked on https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/help-game-stuttering.973/

[orchid socket]

o

[blazing gulch]

so the wear more rings mod is in my game... but i ran stardew already thit but the config isn't showiwng up T^T

[brave adder]

Ohhh okay ty

[errant patrol]

Using the lookup anything mod - How do i config it to be set to the middle mouse button? Like, what do i put in the config for it? MidMouse?

[shy orbit]

the available keybindings should all be here https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Key_Bindings

[errant patrol]

Thank you so much!

[proven thicket]

hmmm apparently I can't find tithrandel, creator of the flower liqueuer mod.

[true dock]

sure, i made a mod with a bunch of console commands for that: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9448

it won't do anything unless you tell it to in the config or the console, you'll want to use one of those pet commands in the SMAPI window to trick the game into giving you a cat

[cyan tapir]

Ooo tysm

[warm bough]

Can anyone help me with unlimited player mod?

[neat plaza]

what do you need help with in it?
also its in vanilla technically

[warm bough]

Every time I start the game there are only 3 side cabins

and other players can't join

[neat plaza]

did you make more

[warm bough]

i can't

that's the problem

[fathom helm]

Not sure if this is actually the right channel since idk if it's a problem based on using mods but: i've recently started to play my very old farm again. back then i used the item spawner mod to decorate it & placed a Wicked Statue just randomly on it. now that i'm playing again i want to re-do a lot and ran into a problem regarding the statue: i can't remove it? So basically, it doesn't register hits with pickaxe or axe, but if i interact with it without holding an item, it does "react" aka vibrate and play the pickaxe hit sound

[shell zephyr]

Hello I've been trying to figure out this bug for a few days now but I honestly can't figure out what's wrong. Does anyone know how to fix this? I cook one meal, this message appears and it won't let me cook anything else until I close the game, when I close the game it only lets me cook once as well. https://smapi.io/log/7b6e02a70f8d4fc0984a1b83709f5cfd

[little tangle]

can you tell me where can i get that version?

[calm spindle]

Its outdated, theres a config for that in the vanilla config text file now

I guess smapi is still marking it as "working?" I dont think thats right.

[warm bough]

nvm problem is solved i just brainstormed a little i just needed to buy cabins thats all

[calm spindle]

Others have had issues with it other than cabins, so be careful.

[warm bough]

thanks for warning me

[dire fractal]

Quick question: why is my mini map all the way down here instead of the top left corner?

[shy orbit]

check the mod config, it probably has options for the placement

[cyan tapir]

uhhh

[dire fractal]

What happens to Linus?

[robust bison]

yassified

[dusky canyon]

He's changed into a wizard

"white wizard" is what naver calls it

[dire fractal]

Still doesn’t explain why he looks like he’s 18

[robust bison]

that's just how the anime portraits for sdv look

[dire fractal]

To be honest I shouldn’t be one to judge I have a portrait mod that makes everyone sexy as hell

Also what’s the best spring thing to grow?

[robust bison]

crop?

potatoes then strawberries

Oh damn wrong channel sorry

Meant to post this somewhere else my bad

[cerulean token]

Hello, I'm sorry for bothering, but I tried installing Smapi today with a friend, and it was a success, but now the game won't launch from Steam, and when it launches by itself (not using Steam), it starts without the mods... we tried so many things to fix this but all failed... if someone can help, i'll gladly take it

[dusty spruce]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[dusty spruce]

also, are you by any chance running the compatibility branch?

[cerulean token]

https://smapi.io/log/686aad5c4c314bd5a5d202fdbb863598

[cerulean token]

i don't think so

[dusty spruce]

i don't really know what's the problem, as the log doesn't say pretty much anything... other than the fact you're missing the mods built into SMAPI, so it seems you didn't install SMAPI properly

[cerulean token]

okay i'll delete everything and try again, thank you!

[glass nexus]

Hii.. Im sorryy but what mod is this? Why so cutee

[teal drum]

Hello I was sent here for help 🙂 This is from a few days ago but I have not changed anything since.

I'm having trouble getting the game to start with smapi. Yesterday it worked fine, I had updated smapi and any mods that had updated to meet smapi. There was no trouble starting up after the downloads, and I played for a few hours.

Today it wont start at all! I took out all mods (excluding smapi) while trying to get it to run:

I updated/scanned/restarted my pc. Then redownloaded/installed smapi. Neither worked. I verified the steam files (it repaired/downloaded any files) and regular stardew runs perfectly. I have now uninstalled/reinstalled stardew, uninstalled/reinstalled smapi and looked online for any other solutions. I'm very lost here 🥲 no errors, just wont start. freezes if I interact with it. Otherwise it sits there loading forever.

https://smapi.io/log/468a269206de448ab0a3843fa1b53954 Could anyone help me? I’m trying to build a winery with TMXL but I don’t know what to do with these issues

[regal hatch]

do you know where i can get that please? 🙂

[regal hatch]

i tried to click the help link for set up but it couldnt be found im sorry to ask

[neat plaza]

nexus

[regal hatch]

i just figured it out i had both kit packs instead of just the CP version.. 🤦

[tired brook]

Hi! Can you install these two custom versions, cause the issue again, and post your new log?

[shut urchin]

i need some help

how do i get the magnus portrait instead of the old wizard?

even after changing the portrait its still an old man instead of another photo

i think i have to change the xnb or smth but i dont have the xnb file

only a photo with 7 portraits

[dire fractal]

I also need some help I think I may have messed up trying to install SVE (stardew valley expanded) my mods folder looks the same but when I press play in steam nothing mod wise loads like at all

[shut urchin]

do you have everything?

[dire fractal]

Pretty sure

like 99%

[shut urchin]

hmm i feel like i know the answer

but im barely remembering

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

try putting this in

launch options

if ur game is in the same place as mine

[dire fractal]

Ah yep that did it

I was just pressing play on steam

[shut urchin]

did the code work?

the thingy

[dire fractal]

yeah

[shut urchin]

launch options

nice

[dire fractal]

New question however my resolution is not the same as normal is there a fix?

[shut urchin]

settings?

graphics?

change it to fullscreen and you can change it

[regal hatch]

@tired brook https://smapi.io/log/0dc85ce949ce42c0b6d67bacfdded101

how do i fix this output issue please

[dire fractal]

Its just the game resolution overall like the steam overlay is worse too

[tired brook]

Do you mean the "No Output found for" messages? That's not my mod, but I think that happens when a machine recipe specifies an output item that doesn't exist (usually because you don't have the mod which adds that item).

[regal hatch]

its from the no JA pack for ppja i think, i also tried geting cannbis events but they dont seem to trigger with the no JA packs

[tired brook]

Oh, you're using the DGA versions of PPJA? Those are broken so far as I know. (I haven't started maintaining those mods, but I'll be replacing both JA and DGA versions with Content Patcher + Stardew Valley 1.6 when I do).

[regal hatch]

i couldnt get the other versions to work properly either none of the crops would plant any advice is welcome because i love stoner sebby

[proven thicket]

wait, do you think, json shuffle was fixed?

because I didn't see anything like, Joja's Patented Fertilizer Wine the moment I installed chests & pouches on an existing save.

Looking sus imo that nothing happened

[dire fractal]

Nvm I fixed it I don't know how

[proven thicket]

i'll take that as a yes\

[surreal urchin]

hello i updated a few mods including content patcher and sve and now everytime i go to sleep it takes ages (basically the same time as launching the game), you can see how its loading again all shops and such

anyone experienced something similar

?

[gaunt gust]

Normal, stf refreshes all shops each day

[surreal urchin]

ok but it didnt take like 5 minutes, sleeping wasalmost instant

guess ill rollback everything and check

[tired brook]

I haven't started maintaining ParadigmNomad's mods, so I can't help much with any issues with them unfortunately.

[lament prairie]

!ppjadga

[native dragon]

The latest released version of PPJA (Project Populate Json Assets, a popular mod) is a conversion from JA to DGA, but it has some bugs in it, and the mod author has retired. Sticking with the older JA version is probably your best option.

You can download the JA version from the Old Files section on Nexus, or by downloading the latest versions of the standalone components instead of the megapack (except for Farmer to Florist, where you would need to look under Old Files in the standalone version).

[rancid dome]

Is there a mod that shows NPC's pathways?

[gaunt gust]

Try profiler to see what is taking so long.

[regal hatch]

i absolutely cannot wait for the cp updates i just hope theyre compatible with the events because i love them so much

[gaunt gust]

Afaik no; this is a feature I and like three other people all want to do at some point haha

[rancid dome]

Dang. Well that would be a great mod lol.

[proven thicket]

so why are my dga changes not doing anything?

[gaunt gust]

It'd be more for debugging schedules. I'm getting sick of staring at a completely incomprehensible list of points

[rancid dome]

The only reason I would want it is for decoration purposes. See where you can and can't place items.

[proven thicket]

is dga mods impossible to edit>

[gaunt gust]

Ah, that's difficult

[proven thicket]

because the config menu isn't doing anything to the chests

[gaunt gust]

While I can load in every loaded schedule and graph that, I have no access to unloaded schedules

And modmakers use conditional schedules all the damn time.

It's basically not feasible.

[proven thicket]

I need to know what's going on wiht dga

[gaunt gust]

Recommendation: non destructive npcs

[rancid dome]

I wouldn't think so, just open the gui or overlay and it shows that tiles containing an NPC pathway, then you would know not to place anything there or it would get trampled.

[lament prairie]

You would have to pull every single possible schedule, ever

Think of sandys birthday

[rancid dome]

That would also be a good mod, but it would look funny watching an NPC walk right through a plant or a bench.

[gaunt gust]

Including the conditional ones

[lament prairie]

But like any NPC could have a Sandy’s birthday situation

Where only on one day they would get up and walk where no one else did

[gaunt gust]

And Pam Tries is like all conditional schedules lol, because she doesn't use any after bus

[proven thicket]

Like, i changed the capacity of the oasis chest, and it's not applying when I load my save.

[gaunt gust]

And all of the spouse schedule edits I did are conditional schedules so I could give leah sixteen of them to randomly pick from

[gaunt gust]

Also on my list is rewriting the whole damn pathfinder

[proven thicket]

[gaunt gust]

In theory I could weight squares with things on them higher, npcs are more likely to walk around them

[rancid dome]

I don't know, it was just a thought. I'm sure it would be difficult to code, but it would be really cool if it was possible.

[proven thicket]

not even the dga page is helping me

[gaunt gust]

I would rather rewrite the goddamn pathfinder lol. That sounds like a fun optimization challenge

Parsing jsons or reflecting into CP to grab conditionally loaded schedules sounds painful and very very unfun

[proven thicket]

Why can't DGA let me edit the chests?

[lament prairie]

Why does DGA have anything to do with chests?

[gaunt gust]

Are you placing new chests. Are you getting chests out of dga_store, or from a console command

[surreal urchin]

ty

[proven thicket]

placing new chests

[proven thicket]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4089?tab=description

[lament prairie]

Ah—I doubt the DGA page has helpful things for chests, this mod page might though

I believe this mod builds on DGA? But doesn’t use base DGA functionality?

[gaunt gust]

Also didn't fury deprecate that in favor of better chests....

[lament prairie]

Possibly

I recall it was having issues for a bit

[proven thicket]

i still wonder why my edits aren't being registered

[lament prairie]

Did you hit save, and is the file in the mods folder in the right place?

Sometimes it’s easy to edit the wrong file by accident

[proven thicket]

i swear is on the file path

[lament prairie]

Did you save, close window, relaunch game?

[proven thicket]

doing that one more time

and nope, still not 144...

[lament prairie]

Not sure then

Could be a bug in the mod? You could report to the author with log?

[spring heron]

Is the smapi mod compatibility page updated? There's a mod that hasn't been updated since 2018 on nexus but mod page says it still works so I was wondering cuz I thought most if not all mods broke after 1.5

[lament prairie]

!compat

[native dragon]

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

[proven thicket]

Wait, there's one file I didn't check to edit:

[lament prairie]

It’s up to date in general, but if no one reports a mod is broken it won’t be reported

It’s a communally maintained list

[teal drum]

@tired brook sorry, you said I should tag you here? ^^;

[proven thicket]

i overlooked the chests.json file

ok then

Success!

[lament prairie]

Nice!

[spring heron]

Where would I go to report it's broken? I'll see if it is when I get there.

(also hi tim)

[lament prairie]

Let someone know here with a log

Or edit the wiki page, but only do that if you’re very sure it’s broken

Some mods from pre 1.5 do work

[spring heron]

Okay ^^

[brittle timber]

Before I do this, will I be able to just roll back SMAPI by reinstalling the 3.14.7 version?

[tired brook]

Yep.

[tired brook]

Can you send me a zip of the mod that adds the winery?

[gaunt gust]

You would just report it here; I like to make sure I can replicate the bug before altering the list

[spring heron]

Okay I'll remember that 🙂 ty
