ill check that out, thank you :)

that worked perfectly, tysm!

[timber bane]

@wet fog you still facing many cat issue?

[spiral yarrow]

how do u install .png craftables

[lament prairie]

There is no way to just install a .png

You'd most likely write a mod to use the png

!cp for if you want to change an existing item

[native dragon]

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

[lament prairie]

!ja if you want to add a new one

[native dragon]

Json Assets (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1720) is a mod which lets content packs and other mods add custom content like crops, trees, weapons, etc. See the mod description for details.

If you're making custom content, ask mod authors in #making-mods-general about whether using Dynamic Game Assets (!dga) would be more suitable instead.

[timber bane]

does anyone know how the Nettle Tea from Love Of Cooking is supposed to work? Are you supposed to be able to cook it or does Love of Cooking add a PFM machine that makes the tea?

[timber bane]

nvm, digging around in the code for answers, seems it's a Keg recipe

[wet fog]

I just loaded it up without grandpas farm installed to see if thats the issue

So I opened it up with grandpas farm unistalled and still no pet. The cat wont even go outside still

[timber bane]

if you sleep past the rainy day does the cat multiply?

[wet fog]

without grandpa's farm installed?

[timber bane]

yeah

[tropic token]

trying to download some mods and I download them off of curse forge andc they dont work

[timber bane]

(if you don't wanna save, don't forget you can put debug nosave in the console before testing this)

[wet fog]

Yeah let me see

[timber bane]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[potent yacht]

https://smapi.io/log/4e83520ca2784593affeda2ffa054143

reshade mods are not important but i need to run korean mods. How can we avoid the message "this is not a smapi mod"?

[lament prairie]

!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).

[lament prairie]

Reshadesjust install totally differently

[timber bane]

btw, I recommend Get Glam as a replacement for Get Dressed

[potent yacht]

kk

i need to run them

[timber bane]

also what kind of korean mods are you trying to use? do you have links to their page? (like are you trying to get hairstyles, furniture, etc?)

[lament prairie]

install fashion sense

delete one of the duplicates

the rest are probably xnb mods or installed wrong

[potent yacht]

https://blog.naver.com/PostList.naver?blogId=kim_de99&from=postList&categoryNo=10&parentCategoryNo=10

all mods

[wet fog]

@timber bane slept to the rainy day, still have 12 cats

So I dont think its grandpas farm thats the issue

[timber bane]

yeah this pretty much confirms that

you can go ahead and add grandpa's farm back

[lament prairie]

Are you still getting the event repeating over and over?

cause I think once you have 12 cats you have to save edit to remove them maybe

[wet fog]

The event stops, its just the duplicate of the cats

[lament prairie]

so main priority is to stop them repeating

then you can save edit the extra cats out, i think?

[wet fog]

When I exit the game though, the event will start over

[lament prairie]

Or am I mistaken that you had the event repeating over and over

[shy sparrow]

yay! elizabeth you're here, any idea what this DGA error means? https://smapi.io/log/f4931b06395e4885a805c56f4eafc1eb?Mods=DynamicGameAssets

its from a mod user on my nexus page

[lament prairie]

Probably wrong spacecore version

[shy sparrow]

ah cool thank you

[lament prairie]

tell them to update mods

[potent yacht]

🤨

[timber bane]

if you view the page using Google Chrome it'll auto translate the page for you, looks like some of them have both xnb and CP (content patcher) versions, you'll want content patcher versions where you can

[potent yacht]

hmm okay

[wet fog]

So the best way I can explain it, is that when I load up my save file, I get the event and one cat. The next day I end up with 12 cats in my house and the event doesnt repeat. Every continuous day after I get the multiple cats but the event doesnt repeat. HOWEVER, once I exit out of the game and reload the save file, the event repeats itself again and I go through the same process

[lament prairie]

okay, so the event basically repeats once per save loading?

and did you check that this was not because of NPC Adventures or GIMA?

It's ok to remove mods that break other mods as long as you don't save

*to some extent, you can overdo and crash the save

[wet fog]

I removed the GIMA and not the NPC Adventures

[lament prairie]

But removing RSV by removing NPC Adventures should be fine

Also I kind of thought NPC adventures was not a dependency of ridgeside

like it's an optional add-on kind of deal

[wet fog]

Let me remove the npc adventures then

So I removed NPC Adventures and RSV NPC Adventures

[potent yacht]

xnb files to replace my character, content>characters>farmer folder to change my character?

[timber bane]

!xnb Elizabeth linked this earlier but here's some links about xnb mods

[native dragon]

@potent yacht 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.

[pastel orchid]

Any mods that can make it so you can move furtniture in your house in smaller increments

[ornate tide]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10213

[pastel orchid]

Gosh i love u

can I have some help installing it :)

its my first time using mods

And i only plan to use that one for now

Im on macos m1

I just downloaded SMAPI

Oh and uh any way to make sure my save file doesnt get corrupted

I have 40 or so hours on it

[ornate tide]

I dont use mac so Im not sure, but you unzip the mod into your mods folder, this guide will help
https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Find_your_game_folder

[wet fog]

@lament prairie @timber bane getting rid of NPC Adventures did nothing. Still have the multiple cats

[pastel orchid]

I'm on that 👍

whats gog?

[ornate tide]

smapi comes with 3 preinstalled mods, save backup, error handler, and console commands. Save backup will keep a zip of your saves every (real) day, if you worry you could manually backup your save

[pastel orchid]

alright

any idea why ti isnt downloading on nexus

[ornate tide]

you have a nexus account?

[pastel orchid]

oh right i probably dont have vortex

[pastel orchid]

Yeah

[timber bane]

gog is https://www.gog.com/ it's just another method of acquiring games

[ornate tide]

you dont need vortex, in fact dont do that at all

[pastel orchid]

oh ok

i have steam :)

[pastel orchid]

oki

alright i got it

do i move this entire thing into the mods folder

[timber bane]

yup!

[pastel orchid]

oki doeks

im a bit confused on opening the mods folder tho 😭

ah wait i did it

now do I just open my game

[wet fog]

this is exactly whats happening

[pastel orchid]

Can I close the terminal once my game is open @timber bane :)

[ornate tide]

no

[pastel orchid]

I cant tell if it worked

my furniture still moves 1 at a time

1 tile

[pastel orchid]

Any ideas

[timber bane]

did you read the instructions?

it uses the numpad

[pastel orchid]

My num changes the item im holding

Im ona laptop keyboard

[ornate tide]

You can change the keys in the mods config.json. So find where you put the mod again, and inside of it should be a config, open that and change it to whatever keys you want

[pastel orchid]

ight

might need sum help for that 😭

do i close my game before i do that

left_arrow right_arrow etc?

for the diff buttons

[timber bane]

it supports GMCM

[native dragon]

@timber bane You leveled up to Farmer. You're now a prettier shade of blue. Thanks for sticking around!

[pastel orchid]

whats that xd

[timber bane]

open your in-game menu, then go to options, then scroll to the bottom

[pastel orchid]

also congrats

[wet fog]

i wonder if i take SVE out if that changes anything

[pastel orchid]

I closed the game

I'll just write the code but what are the b uttons

for arow keys what cna i write

[lament prairie]

Okay, so let's check if it happens on a new save. you can put back GIMA and NPC Adventures. Add CJB cheats and sleep through 3-4 days, and iirc give yourself a bunch of money.

I forget the exact cat conditions

[timber bane]

I think if you use the menu you can just press the button

[pastel orchid]

oki

[green lily]

debug wh in console is easier but i forgot that debug commands existed lol

[wet fog]

CJB cheats? uhm, how do i do that? lol

[pastel orchid]

what can i use for "leftalt" on mac

[wet fog]

I'll start up a new game right now

[stark cypress]

Add the CJB Cheats Menu mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4, use it to fiddle around

[timber bane]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Key_Bindings

[pastel orchid]

bik gmca isnt there

[lament prairie]

rebind it

[pastel orchid]

Yeah

but gmca isnt there

[timber bane]

ohhh right sorry yes you'd have to also install that

[timber bane]

my bad

[pastel orchid]

uh

[pastel orchid]

its alr

its saying no such file or directory

[timber bane]

can you post a screenshot of your mod directory?

[lament prairie]

ignore those

idk why but it happens on macos

[pastel orchid]

v

^^

[timber bane]

that all looks correct!

[pastel orchid]

Coolbeans

[lament prairie]

they're just weird extraneous messages, I guess I could look into them sometime but it's probably something to do with the Macos files in folders

[timber bane]

anyways if you want the config menu I highly recommend it, it's awesome

!gmcm

[native dragon]

Generic Mod Config Menu (or GMCM https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5098) adds the option to edit some, but not all, mod configs from either the title screen or the options page in a save. It also has a special screen to edit keybinds for all mods with GMCM integration.

The presence of the gear it adds to the title screen is not a method for checking whether mods are installed, only whether GMCM is installed.

[pastel orchid]

thanks@

@timber bane Didnt work :(

Im pressing the buttons but it does nothing

[pastel orchid]

ah

@timber bane any idea what to do

@ornate tide you use this mod right

im holding left arrow and its not moving

[ornate tide]

I dont use the mod, it was just recommended once. Are you hovering over the furniture and then pressing your key?

[pastel orchid]

uh no

I click it so it lets me move it with my mouse

then hold

press the key

[ornate tide]

Can you place it and then try using the key?

[pastel orchid]

like hover over it with my cursor?

and then press

[ornate tide]

Yeah

[pastel orchid]

ight brb

[wet fog]

Did a new save file. Im not having any issues

[pastel orchid]

ahhh it works @ornate tide tysm

i cant move sum stuff :(

[lament prairie]

Have you got the cat yet?

[wet fog]

I got the cat, slept through 3 more days, no issues

[lament prairie]

Okay, that's pointing towards an issue in the save file then

(The original one with 12 cats)

[wet fog]

Okay then, are there any next steps?

[lament prairie]

Can you search through it for 1590166?

See how many times it appears

I'm not really an expert in save file editing

But that's the cat event ID

[wet fog]

Uhm… where would I look for this and in what save file? The one im having issues with?

[lament prairie]

Yes

!saves

[native dragon]

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

[wet fog]

Im guessing im going to that save folder, then clicking “save game info?”

[lament prairie]

Yeah your save should be in there

It’s a text file

Technically xml but basically text

[pastel orchid]

@ornate tide know any mods that let you turn every peice of furtniture

like rotate it

[wet fog]

Omg I found it and its showing up and the number is appearing 9 times

It appears once in the very beginning of the codes and then 9x after

[lament prairie]

Okay, make a copy of the save

Keep it somewhere safe

And try removing a bunch of those

[wet fog]

Am I copying the text file?

[lament prairie]

The textures don’t exist for that

[lament prairie]

Just in finder copy the whole file yeah

It’s not technically impossible to make a mod that rotates all furniture but it’s extremely difficult due to the amount of art needed

[pastel orchid]

oh alright

[lament prairie]

You might also have to remove some cats

I unfortunately don’t know how to do that

But if you can remove all but one of the Marnie events it’s possible that count help

[wet fog]

Alright, I’ll make a copy of the original folder and save it to my desktop, then I’ll edit this one

[lament prairie]

Sounds good!

[wet fog]

Am I just saving the document when I make the changes?

[lament prairie]

That way if anything goes wrong you can swap in the backup

Yes

[hexed geyser]

is there baechu styled seasonal portraits for vanilla villagers?

[cyan tapir]

UHHH

this thing keeps looping like crazy after i upgraded my barn

https://smapi.io/log/adbdbad9300f476da17af2c774d3d384

what does this mean

uhhh

it seems like something went wrong with automate

but i dont think i used any machines in the barn besides the autograbber

[timber bane]

Clearly the fact that your busty farmer mod is out of date is causing this

[timber bane]

Is this your second barn?

[cyan tapir]

i just updated it :catsob:

[cyan tapir]

my first

at least in this save

[wet fog]

Im going to do this in the morning cause im getting sleepy and I wanna be focused lol

I’ll keep you posted!

[timber bane]

Is your game still playable while the error loops? Maybe try removing any and all items in the barn?

[cyan tapir]

yeah it is but the error notif wont go away

[lethal mantle]

my smapi console doesn’t load when I start the game on linux

All of my mods work but the console isn’t there

idk if this is relevant but I’m running this on crostini

[swift holly]

I went a little mod happy and now all items that can stack don’t show how many are in the stack, anyone see this before?

[vital saddle]

okay I reinstalled AT and it's fixed thank you

[shy orbit]

i don't know how crostini works, but maybe it doesn't have a terminal that smapi supports. do you know if it has xterm? that should work

[hexed geyser]

is there a way to just type something infront of a file to disable it?

[shy orbit]

a dot character works to disable mods

[hexed geyser]

thank you

[shy sparrow]

Anyone know which mod ppja.artisanvalleymachinegoods is? Even More Recipes for JsonAssets 1.5.12 because it requires mods which aren't installed (ppja.artisanvalleymachinegoods) I looked in the mod requirements but couldn't see anything that quite fit

[dire fractal]

That should just be artisan valley?

[shy sparrow]

-pokes mod list- I though I had it

thanks!

[dire fractal]

Np!

So smapi said something weird to me
It said that Immersive Profesions says local player Kingly has gain Luck Experience, but Luck skill is not installed, the Luck skill will be reset

I'm looking at it installed now

https://smapi.io/log/13af4e0f72e9411d85f5f470742bf05b So to continue on the issue of Immersive Professions.
It loads well with everything, till it Love of Cooking loads. I tested with all the Immersive Mods and Luck and with Love of Cooking and it crashes

[snow prism]

blueberry will be happy to hear that

mhh looks like a WoL error tho 🤔

[dire fractal]

I reported it to Immersive creator cause it was the one to crash

[strange lion]

I'm having problems installing mods. I've installed SMAPI from the stardew wiki and I go to install the required mods for stardew valley extended and it says that I've not installed SMAPI.

[snow prism]

where does it say you have not installed it?

did you put the launch options in steam as directed?

[surreal urchin]

so today i went to open stardew, smapi closed without even showing title screen so i went to open it again

and the smapi exe was gonne

i reset computer and tried to install again

and im met with this

The installer failed with an unexpected exception.
If you need help fixing this error, see https://smapi.io/help

[strange lion]

it comes up with this but already installed it

[snow prism]

you can ignore that, that just means you need SMAPI. it cant tell whether you installed it already or not

[strange lion]

i put them in the stardew vally mods folder

[strange lion]

right ok

[surreal urchin]

so if anyone is interested i had to disable Avast to be able to install SMAPI again

if i enable it again smapi gone

looks like avast decided today smapi bad

[naive drum]

nexus has no idea what's on your hard drive or not just that hey! this thing needs SMAPI! make sure you have SMAPI!

[strange lion]

I understand now. It’s just that new to using mods and I don’t know what I was but I was able to get everything working so thank you @naive drum and @snow prism

[primal eagle]

So hah... funny story. I decided to use debug commands on my newest save file because I didn't wanna stress too much; I found out that the "debug setupfarm" command completely removes the greenhouse. so I went into my save file to try and get it back (i made a copy and backed it up just in case) uh and now when I open that save with smapi I get a bunch of red and it sends me back to the main title. I reverted the save file and made sure everything was as it was but it's still doing that same thing

[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?

[primal eagle]

https://smapi.io/log/832bfe765784480797eb7a49993baf14

[primal eagle]

Oh haha so I also just found out that I just can't load any save

[warm widget]

what do i need to open a config.json file

[naive drum]

any text editor, for example notepad

[primal eagle]

I was able to fix it on my own !! I lost about 3 hours of progress but it's okay ill recover :]

[dire fractal]

Hello, I have a problem with a mod, can someone help me?

[naive drum]

!ask

[native dragon]

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

[dire fractal]

I have downloaded a sound mod, which changes several such as desert music, enemy sounds, effects and more, the problem occurs when you want to go to the ginger island, when you arrive the game freezes and nothing can be done .

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1917?tab=description

is this mod

[summer swan]

A wild guess: Maybe it's not 1.5 compatible?

[dire fractal]

can be

[summer swan]

I'm not sure if I would use it to begin with due to the issues mentioned on the mod page to be honest.

[dire fractal]

it's a shame, it was so good

[alpine ginkgo]

It's an XNB mod? You probably shouldn't be using it to begin with...

[dire fractal]

oh

[summer swan]

.xwb says Nexus.

[dire fractal]

yes, is XNB

[alpine ginkgo]

Yeah, that can be really dangerous and mess up your game.

Especially if the mod is outdated, which it seems this one is.

[naive drum]

!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 :)

[dire fractal]

OK thank you

[summer swan]

1.5 was released at the end of 2020 or something like that. In regards to mods which were released before that you might be a bit cautious. It doesn't mean that all of them ain't compatible, but checking the comments section usually helps. 🙂

[alpine ginkgo]

For SMAPI mods, you can check https://smapi.io/mods for compatibility. For content packs, I'd also recommend looking in the comments and at bug reports.

[dire fractal]

ok, thanks

[plush hamlet]

I need help guys, I'm using cracked stardew valley and I downloaded SMAPI, i did everything I had to but when I try to open the game with mods, it just won't let me in and says ,``Oops! You're running stardew valley 1.5.5, but the oldest supported version is 1.5.6. PLease update your game before using SMAPI''. Please help:(

[naive drum]

Sounds like your cracked Stardew is out of date.

[summer swan]

You can answer that question yourself.

[neat plaza]

#old-rules 5

[naive drum]

There are old versions of SMAPI on Nexus, but you'll have to handle figuring out if any given mod supports 1.5.5 yourself

[plush hamlet]

Oh okey, i'll try my best, thanks for the information:)

[alpine ginkgo]

Yeah, generally the modding guidelines is that we're not supposed to help if the problem is related to the game being pirated, which seems to be the case here.

[dark cloud]

Can anyone help me? I want to use the SV expanded mod. But the mods aren't loading in. I downloaded, installed and enabled all the required mods to make i work. But everytime i want to check with a new game i just starts a vanilla game.
I use Vortex for my mods

[shy orbit]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[dark cloud]

It's not finding the map

[naive drum]

Vortex can't install SMAPI itself by the way

[dark cloud]

It says it Installed SMAPI

[naive drum]

it doesnt actually work, you have to run the SMAPI isntaller outside of vortex

[dusty spruce]

!modmanagerbugs btw

[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.

[dusty spruce]

Apparently mods which actually consist of many smaller mods are the main problem

And Expanded is one such mod

[naive drum]

Yeah that too but Vortex claims it can install SMAPI, it used to be able to install SMAPI, it cannot install SMAPI

[dusty spruce]

Yeah, I’m just saying in advance

That Vortex won’t work anyway

[dark cloud]

I'm installing it manually. Try that

Cool, it works. Thanks guys! 🤘

[final patrol]

hey guys! anyone else having issues with portrait mods in SDV?

like this kind of problem? 😅

[neat plaza]

is it a high res pack

[hoary bane]

Stardew Reimagined 2 is outdated, Jodek. ^^

There might be an unofficial conversion elsewhere, search here.

!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. :)

[subtle field]

thanks, i will try it

[final patrol]

i dont think so? how would one know?

[hoary bane]

If it looks Hd in comparison to the vanilla portraits, then it's a high res pack.

[final patrol]

its not just one mod, its a few mods from one modder

[final patrol]

oh ok!

it was working up until.. about a week ago?

im gonna double check which mods are affected

[hoary bane]

I'm gonna be guessing dcburger?

[final patrol]

any ideas with why its acting that way?

by OrangePieUwu

very odd, no one else seems to have posted about it on the mod comment section

on nexus

ive got the replacement mod version downloaded, and no i havent been smart enough to uninstall and reinstall 😅 i'll give that a shot and see it it works, ill also try another version of the mod

but yes, its bizarre

[naive drum]

It's possible it's due to the content patcher updates

PyTK has an unofficial alpha update which might fix it, in the thread in this channel

[final patrol]

thank you! i noticed it after i updated some mods

[jade wren]

Why does Daia look like a non-giftable npc? It says on the wiki that she's romancable (RSV)

Anyone having errors with Museum expansion with Randy schedule and have a way to fix it?

[acoustic jetty]

Hi! Can anyone help us with this? My friend keeps disconnecting in our coop farm every 5 minutes. SMAPI shows this error log.

um what?

[strange sky]

Is east scarp compatible w rsv and sve?

[lament prairie]

Yes

It should be. No error logs in my smapi

[honest yacht]

how do i use event repeater to see a cutscene i completely missed?

[timber bane]

Sooo I don’t know buuut if you have Mobile Phone installed and high enough hearts you can “reminisce” about previous cutscenes to view them again

[teal drum]

I'm sorry I'm not sure if this is what you mean? ><; I have spybot and the basic antivirus. I added all of the stardew folder just in case?
(no changes, smapi responds the same, vanilla stv still runs normal)

[tired brook]

Yep, that's fine. Can you...

1. go to your game folder;
2. open smapi-internal/config.json in a text editor (Notepad is fine);
3. change the VerboseLogging option to true;
4. launch the game again and wait 10 minutes or so;
5. then post your new log?

[teal drum]

yes 🙂 running it now

[wet maple]

@tired brook Sorry to tag you but I have a small question - does your tractor mod still replaces horsie? I cant find info about it on nexus page...

[neat plaza]

it's seperate (and a seperate building)

[wet maple]

Yey 😄

oh, sorry-

[daring rover]

hi my friend is hosting a 24/7 online game and they have the mod that lets you make more cabins, but i cant go to robin and buy one

[obsidian oak]

one more thing, how do I know if sve is working as soon as I finish making the world? Will it show new things on the map?

[shy orbit]

the menu map should be different, but you can also check social menu for the new npcs and go to busstop and town to check for map changes

[lament prairie]

go to bus stop or check log

[obsidian oak]

okay, thank you!

[tired brook]

It looks like SMAPI launched fine, started the game, the game ran its first update tick, and then... the game just sits there doing nothing. 🤔

[teal drum]

😔 thats about the look of it, so frustrating

[obsidian oak]

okay, fuck, I Started my mod folder over again, to try to get sve to work, and now none of the mods are working-

like, the game is running, but none of the mods will do anything.

[native dragon]

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

[obsidian oak]

nvm, I didn't have smapi in the mods list, I'm trying again

I'm so dumb-

[lament prairie]

If you completely disable the antiviruses temporarily, does that help? Also, do you have a dedicated graphics card? If so, run the game on it.

[tired brook]

Does it work with this version? (No need to post the log, it won't create one.)

[wet fog]

I went throught, deleted those extra events, and I’m still getting the same issue. I’m going to check really quick and see if I saved it correctly.

[lament prairie]

Honestly, at this point it looks like a save file issue and I'm really just not that familiar with the save file layout.

[wet fog]

No problem. I’m just grateful for your time and help.

[obsidian oak]

did that, it's still not doing anything.

[lament prairie]

Are you using a mod manager, Nash?

[obsidian oak]

I'm using smapi.

does that count?

if it doesn't, then jo.

no*

im sorry if I'm being dumb, I usually use curseforge and it kinda does everything for you.

[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]

Is the icon a chicken or a pufferchick?

[obsidian oak]

do you mean the icon on my desktop? if so, it's just a chicken.

[lament prairie]

The icon for the thing you are launching

If you are launching the chicken, that's the base game (no SMAPI)

[obsidian oak]

ohh

I'm sorry.

[lament prairie]

You need to install SMAPI and then either launch the pufferchick or set your launch options in Steam/GOG

Launching StardewModdingAPI.exe directly should work

(That should be a pufferchick)

[obsidian oak]

okay, thank you so much, I'll see if that works.

[wet fog]

!saves

[native dragon]

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

[obsidian oak]

I'm so sorry, but how do I launch StardewModdingAPI.exe??

[snow prism]

doubleclick it

[obsidian oak]

like, I don't know where to find it.

[teal drum]

it seems stuck just the same but with different text:

[lament prairie]

Would it be easier for you to find the exe (it's in the game folder, which is full of random crap), or to set your launch options?

The launch options means stardew always launches with SMAPI, which is probably easier if that's what you want

[obsidian oak]

yeah, that's what I want.

[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

[tired brook]

It doesn't seem to be something SMAPI itself is doing then; the only thing that version does is run some prechecks (which worked if it got to that point), and then launch the game as-is. So it seems like something on your computer is probably blocking the game (when launched through SMAPI) somehow?

Did you change anything between the time when it worked and when it stopped working (e.g. Windows updates, new software, etc)?

[obsidian oak]

okay, thank you, I'm gonna run it now.

let's see if this works.

[deep heron]

I just came here to get help with this same problem p-p

[forest brook]

if anyone knows how i can fix whats going on in my game right now, that would be much appreciated!

it is my first day of summer, and i use mods to change the landscape and town buildings, it worked perfectly all spring with no issues, but now it seems to be glitched? sorry if this is dumb, my first time playing with mods and i dont know loads about them

[lament prairie]

!patchsummary looks like some grass is not changing seasons

[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.

[teal drum]

as far as I can remember I downloaded the new smapi, played stv with it, logged off my computer. The next day it would not run, with no changes from the previous night. I then updated my pc & redownloaded smapi. Nothing has helped since ><;

[lament prairie]

You might have an out of date recolor, or two conflicting recolors

[forest brook]

thank you! ill look into it now :)

[obsidian oak]

okay, so, I did what that thing said, and it didn't work, neither did doing the pufferchick

[lament prairie]

What happened instead?

Did the game launch?

[obsidian oak]

it launched, but nothing was different.

it was exactly the same as vanilla.

[lament prairie]

!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?

[lament prairie]

The app icon, was it still a chicken?

If it was a pufferchick, you should have a log

The log is the single best troubleshooting tool

[teal drum]

Sorry how do I disable antivirus? I can't see an option in Windows Security

I'm not sure what a dedicated graphics card means? ^^; I have one card(gtx 1080 ti)

[snow prism]

dedicated graphics card means you have a card separate from the CPU (not built into it)

[lament prairie]

Unfortunately I know nothing about windows

[snow prism]

so you have one 😉

do you have any anti-virus besides windows defender?

[lament prairie]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_doesn.27t_launch 2. here is how to put it on the graphics card

Look for "2. (Windows only) Run the game on your dedicated graphics card:"

[obsidian oak]

https://smapi.io/log/01994b34730d4775bb2166cc5160a3e1

[lament prairie]

Where did you put the mods?

[obsidian oak]

I put them in the mods folder smapi made

[snow prism]

she did put 1 mod correctly

[lament prairie]

This shows that you have one mod there and you're missing the framework for it

[wet fog]

@timber bane are you familiar with save files? 👉🏻👈🏻🥺

[obsidian oak]

How-

Im sorry, im not used to this-

[lament prairie]

"Mods go here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods"

Also they need unzipping

[obsidian oak]

ohhh

Damn, i think the reason it didnt work might have been because the M was lowercase

[teal drum]

ah i have one then haha ^^; I sound very ignorant I'm sorry
I have only windows defender, spybot (free) and malwarebytes (free)

[obsidian oak]

Also, how do i Unzip a 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.

[obsidian oak]

okay, I extracted all the files, fixed the folder, and it's still playing the vanilla game, and I went through the pufferchick

[rare hamlet]

I've been having some errors with my smapi how do I fix it? https://smapi.io/log/c5f0f995ddd74346b2bc026bef1823f4
Heres my log

[cyan tapir]

@solemn shoal i finally tried to erase again but im not sure if something is off or if im doing something wrong bc im pressing and holding the keybinds but it doesnt seem to erase or pick up the flooring?

https://smapi.io/log/69cfdbb82ef0467689c5c398707fa144

[lament prairie]

You seem to be missing the 3 mods that SMAPI bundles

And the error has to do with a mod you don't have installed

Did you upload the whole log file?

Try reinstalling SMAPI possibly

To get those back

In particular, Error Handler really helps make the errors more readable

[rare hamlet]

Okay! Thank you

[rare hamlet]

How do I find out which mods they are

[solemn shoal]

Could you paste a screenshot of the flooring? As well as what mod they might have come from, or what might have changed it at all, like a retexture or something.

[lament prairie]

Reinstalling SMAPI should put them back, but for future reference they are Error Handler, Save Backup, and Console Commands

[cyan tapir]

oh! im using seasonal paths

[rare hamlet]

Great tysm

[cyan tapir]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4852

[solemn shoal]

Yeah, that... shouldn't affect it whatsoever...

Do you have GMCM installed? Can you go into the settings and change the path/floor erase key to something else, just in case some other mod is suppressing that key?

[cyan tapir]

yep

i changed my keybinds so other mods wouldnt interfere

[hard notch]

how do I update mods?

[solemn shoal]

Let's hope that works, then!

[cyan tapir]

you go to the link in the log and download it again

[hard notch]

just download?

[cyan tapir]

yeah

[hard notch]

do i put it in the mod file or something

[cyan tapir]

well i already did that before i mean like twice

[obsidian oak]

@lament prairie (sorry to @ you, but your about me says I can.) I unzipped the files, and fixed the mod folder, but it's still not working

[hard notch]

do i replace the old mod with the new one?

[cyan tapir]

yes

[lament prairie]

New log?

[obsidian oak]

ill do that.

[rare hamlet]

I reinstalled Smapi but the same thing keeps showing up

[lament prairie]

Can you send a new log too Jojo?

[solemn shoal]

Do you feel like installing a version with some added debug logging so we can at least maybe find where things are exploding?

[hard notch]

what about smapi, how do I update that

[rare hamlet]

https://smapi.io/log/f0a6c14285cf4403a64cda41ea4dc7d5

[lament prairie]

Run the installer again to update smapi

[cyan tapir]

oh? sure!

[lament prairie]

It doesn't look like SMAPI was reinstalled correctly. Did you run the installer all the way until green text appeared?

[obsidian oak]

https://smapi.io/log/d2204354efd9472097deb1461ae0d652

[rare hamlet]

I think so let me try again

[lament prairie]

Okay, some of your mods are loading but not others, because you are missing some dependencies and have two copies of some mods

If you look at the log link, scroll down to the red text

[obsidian oak]

oh, okay.

[lament prairie]

Each line of red text has instructions on what's wrong with that mod

The extra folders ones you can ignore for now

Those are just extra folders from when you unzipped, I suspect

[obsidian oak]

what can I do about the ones that say it's an empty folder?

[lament prairie]

Delete the empty folder

Check that it's actually empty before deleting, though

[obsidian oak]

okay, thank you!

[rare hamlet]

Yeah I saw the green text and then launched it and its still showing that message

Maybe I updated my mods wrong?

[lament prairie]

Hmm, where did the green text say your mods folder is located?

Do you have two copies of the game installed by any chance?

[hard notch]

what? where is the installer

[lament prairie]

!gettingstarted when you download smapi, you have to run an installer

[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]

It's bascially the same as installing the first time

[rare hamlet]

SMAPI is installed! If you use Steam, set your launch options to enable achievements (see smapi.io/install):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

[solemn shoal]

Okay, just gimme a little bit!

[rare hamlet]

I don't think so

[cyan tapir]

oki!

[lament prairie]

Okay, I looked in trace and your log is just really weird or is displaying weird

Trace says that mods are installed but the thing at the top doesn't show them

The issue is with Show Birthdays, but because your log looks really weird, I can't tell why

[solemn shoal]

And just to confirm, picking up other things like fences, etc. works?

[lament prairie]

Try deleting and reinstalling show birthdays maybe?

[rare hamlet]

Okay!

I think I just updated that one wrong

[hard notch]

ahhh I don't get it

[lament prairie]

which step is going wrong?

[obsidian oak]

I went to get the flash shifter mod, and Its not showing up, so I put in the link and it says page not found.

[lament prairie]

it's sve

!sve

[native dragon]

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

[hard notch]

I don't know how to update mods at all

[lament prairie]

You might have SVE downloaded but it's having issues loading

[lament prairie]

1. save configs if desired
2. delete old mod
3. download, unzip, place new mod in mods folder

4. if saved config, put that back too

[rare hamlet]

@lament prairie It worked! Thank you so much I really appreciate you helping me!!

[lament prairie]

still have no idea why your log looked so weird, but I'm glad it's working now!

[obsidian oak]

it's still saying I need the flash shifter mod, but it's not showing up even in the link

it's just showing how to install the other mods.

[lament prairie]

!log and I can try to explain

[native dragon]

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

[obsidian oak]

[rare hamlet]

Does this mean anything or should I ignore it? Sorry for the dusty screen😭😭

[solemn shoal]

Okay, give this one a shot when you get a chance. It should tell us 1) If the key's even being detected as held down, 2) If it's detecting a floor on the tile, 3) The type and name of the floor, if it can figure out what it is, which it should be able to.

[cyan tapir]

I haven't tried yet

[lament prairie]

you have an empty folder somewhere, that's fine

[spiral yarrow]

what are .png sprites file for? I see them on naver. they are often along side with their .xnb counterpart.

[neat plaza]

they're sprites

[spiral yarrow]

where do u place them?

[lament prairie]

Okay, so you downloaded "Immersive Farm 2 Remastered" (IF2R), which requires Stardew Valley Expanded (SVE, really big mod)

If you want to use IF2R, you have to also download all of SVE

[rare hamlet]

Okay thank you!!

[neat plaza]

!cp

[native dragon]

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

[obsidian oak]

I thought i had sve though, that was one of the main mods i wanted.

give me a second

[lament prairie]

SVE is not showing up in the logs

It may be there but not unzipped

[obsidian oak]

ohhhh

[proven thicket]

So I can just add json assets mods mid-playthrough without much repercussion?

[lament prairie]

!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.

[cyan tapir]

alright! i have it so what should i do next?

[solemn shoal]

Try to pick up some floors, and send the log from that game session!

[cyan tapir]

the ~ button is being used by the debug mod so is it ok if i change the keybind for erase?

[solemn shoal]

Yup, it can be anything at all.

[solemn shoal]

It's so weird there's absolutely nothing in the log when you're pressing that floor erase key, because it should be spamming it for every single frame it's pressed...

am i just supposed to press and hold the erase key only or do i have to click and drag

bc i tried both and it didnt seem to work

[cyan tapir]

wait i think i did it

[lament prairie]

perhaps ask in rsv server?

[solemn shoal]

Am I right in maybe assuming you're setting and pressing the "hold to erase" key? Because... no, it should be the "pick up floor" key for erasing the floors that are already in the world!

The hold to erase key is for erasing the drawing before it applies it, which is... honestly my bad!

[solemn dawn]

there is one?

okay okay, another question, is it difficult to patch missing textures? i dont mind the invisible items as long as they work properly, but i am avoiding planting invisible goods

[lament prairie]

why do you have missing textures?

[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?

[solemn dawn]

my load setup is mods folder, no mod organizers

[lament prairie]

Usually caused by rescaled textures, but occasionally by bad patching

If it's caused by bad patching (a mod using a Load instead of EditImage, for example) you can patch them back with a simple CP patch, but it's probably better to fix the offending mod

If it's a PyTK rescaling issue then you have to change load order to fix it

[solemn dawn]

how do i manage load order with mods folder?

[lament prairie]

If you have Faithful Weapons (PyTK version) or Lux's food mod, those are common culprits

!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

[lament prairie]

The rescaling mods have to load absolutely last relative to anything that edits the same image

[solemn dawn]

none

[lament prairie]

Those aren't the only ones that can cause it, just the most common

[proud notch]

Hi all, I'm a bit new here. My friend is using windows 10 on steam and wants SVE. We installed the latest SMAPI and used WinRAR to extract the zip file into the Stardew Valley mods folder and SMAPI is def. working because when she opens SV via Steam the SMAPI black window shows up with text. The issue is with Content Patcher. We installed the latest non-beta CP and unzipped it into Mods for Stardew, and for some reason it's not working. SMAPI is running okay but when I try to get her on a Portrait mod it says it doesnt work because she doesnt have the mods needed (content patcher) even though we've installed content patcher and unloaded it into the Stardew Valley mods folder using WinRAR. I did this exact same thing to mod my game- installed SMAPI, put it in there with WinRAR, and unzipped CP into the Mods folder. I also have Windows 10 on PC and use Steam and this method worked flawlessly. I'm not sure why its not working for her. Any suggestions? We know SMAPI works because it has the black box popup when she runs the game via Steam.

[drowsy flame]

Hey my boyfriend is trying to install mods on SDV and got this error code when he tried to launch "System cannot find the path specified" (0x3)

[native dragon]

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

!launchoptions he probably set these wrong

[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

[proud notch]

she did

its saying CP is fine even tho it doesnt work? and SMAPI is the latest version

[neat plaza]

dont put the installer in the mods folder and install pytk

[lament prairie]

That says you need PyTK for that portrait mod

[proud notch]

OHHH i completely forgot about that

tyyy

i forgot ever even getting pytk

[timber bane]

It’s usually more helpful if you send the link and not a screenshot of the log, just for future reference :)

[proud notch]

sorry!

shes just very comp. illiterate so having her ss was easier lolol

[solemn dawn]

funnily enough the only error there about empty folder, isnt even empty, just checked lmao, removed the other folder tho

could it perhaps be stardewhack? i dunno how deep it scrambles code

[lament prairie]

Unlikely, this is much more often a PyTK issue. Does it still happen if you remove PyTK? It could also be radioactive tools

or ArmorOre

[solemn dawn]

would removing pytk not break my load?

[lament prairie]

Not sure, a few things might stop loading, but it's a quick and dirty way to check. Just don't save the day after removing PyTK

uh didnt check lmao

time to replicate the log

[echo scroll]

Thanks @lament prairie much appreciated

[karmic bolt]

hi my smapi keeps lagging and stuttering even without mods/ ive tried everything listed in the wiki as downloading the beta version in nexus, changing the process affinity and priority to high. the vanilla version runs fine and it only happens when it is with smapi. please someone help me

[dire fractal]

How do I remove mods?

[solemn dawn]

did you try a clean install of stardew and download a fresh smapi?

[karmic bolt]

yes

[solemn dawn]

did you make sure the smapi version matches your stardew valley version?

[karmic bolt]

yes

[solemn dawn]

also, !log

[dire fractal]

The cutscene in grandpa;s farm said trhat there was a bottom floor in the shed for casks but i cant find the entrance D: Help

[karmic bolt]

what is that

[dire fractal]

stardew valley expanded

[solemn dawn]

lmao commands dont work with newbs apparently,

aka me

[dusty spruce]

or the message has to start with them, not end

[solemn dawn]

try this thing buddy

ah, is that so

[solemn dawn]

!log

[native dragon]

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

[solemn dawn]

it does work

[dusty spruce]

i added them to the SMAPI 3.14 performance issues thread

[solemn dawn]

how have you installed them?

[dire fractal]

This is going to sound really stupid

I do not remember

[solemn dawn]

so you're trying a fresh start?

[dire fractal]

Yeah

I don’t some mods I don’t like anymore

[solemn dawn]

simply uninstalling stardew, removing its folder and reinstalling should work, for a clean slate that is

[dire fractal]

Alright thanks

[solemn dawn]

so i cant tell anymore, the game launched normally this time

nevermind, crashed when i opened the inventory

starngely the log had no crashing errors?

attempt #4

i think my game is randomly crashing due to windowed instead of fullscreen

[fading summit]

Is sdve worth downloading

[solemn dawn]

yeah i think so

[dire fractal]

does using mods in a world save when you use the native launcher

im using the cjb menu

[solemn dawn]

pretty sure modded and unmodded saves go in the same place

[dire fractal]

hmm

[solemn dawn]

i still see a vanilla save when i'm loading my game

my game aint even launching anymore, gonna restart my windows brb

[young chasm]

F1 doesnt work for me with lookup anything

tried updating it

[solemn dawn]

!log my dude

[native dragon]

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

[solemn dawn]

oh mah gawd i see textures

[young chasm]

Yeah ill tdo it later

[solemn dawn]

okay, cant really know what happens with your game until do you, good luck!

turns out it was armor ore removing textures, yay

[strange sky]

If I’m starting to feel the lag, is there a way or mod to minimize it?

Without having to get rid of stuff

[ornate tide]

!spritemaster you can get spritemaster (and turn off the smoothing if you dont like it) as it has some optimizations that can help load times and performance

[native dragon]

SpriteMaster (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4922) is a mod that resamples the game's graphics to be smoother and improves performance.

[strange sky]

Ooh thanks!

[solemn dawn]

my deepest thanks, @lament prairie, and sorry for kinda sorta making you my debugging rubber duckie

[quaint gorge]

hi. not entirely sure if this is the place to ask but im trying to install SMAPI and my pc continues to tell me no. the installer doesn't seem to have access to a path it needs, but running as an admin means it can't find the specified path at all.

i've put it in the game folder location and tried this as well, like the wiki suggested. i'm just... not sure if i'm doing something wrong or not. sorry if this in somewhere in an FAQ, i couldn't find it.

[snow prism]

you have it on gamepass, right?

[quaint gorge]

no, through steam

[snow prism]

whats the error when running as admin?

[quaint gorge]

The system cannot find the path specified

[gaunt gust]

What are the permissions on that dir

[snow prism]

... no real solution, but you could try uninstalling stardew and installing in another folder and then try to mod it there
(your saves are save, they are stored somewhere else)

[gaunt gust]

It's in the options menu somewhere

Uninstalling and reinstalling (And making sure steam ain't installing with elevated permissions might help)

Don't recommend running software as admin unless absolutely necessary anyways

[quaint gorge]

absolutely no idea i am not tech savvy at all

i'll try uninstalling and reinstalling though

[oak solar]

anyone know what mod the path textures are from?

[quaint gorge]

i am terrified to do this without asking but do you guys think giving the installer more permissions than just "read" and "read & execute" might help things? it seems those are all the permissions at the moment.

[gaunt gust]

Are you on Mac?

[quaint gorge]

no, windows

[snow prism]

reinstalling didnt work?

[oak solar]

wait so whats the problem?

[quaint gorge]

no

[oak solar]

black cmd appears, you clicked 1 and then enter or whatever it exactly is and then there is the error?

[quaint gorge]

i'm trying to run the SMAPI installer and it keeps telling me that it doesn't have access to a specific file path

[gaunt gust]

Ah, okay. What are the permissions on the stardew game directory

[quaint gorge]

like the folder with the .exe of the base game?
read & execute, read, list folder content.

[gaunt gust]

Hmmmm

User might need write

[quaint gorge]

it looks like users do have the write perm

[snow prism]

uninstall it and install it into a different folder?

[quaint gorge]

ill try that

is there an option in steam to specificlly install somewhere else? i can't seem to find it

[shell jackal]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/8683

[snow prism]

steam asks me

[quaint gorge]

weird. it does not ask me

[snow prism]

Steam->Settings->Download

then add a new location I guess

[quaint gorge]

coolio

[oak solar]

thanks so much :D

[snow prism]

mhh

you could also simply copy your SDV folder somewhere else

manually

and try then

idk why I didnt think of that earlier...

[quaint gorge]

that

me 🤝 you
missing the obvious

[oak solar]

to change the steam location you first have to add another location, -> head into steam settings then to downloads then click on steam library folders n then add one there

[snow prism]

youll need to enter the path into the smapi installer manually then though

[oak solar]

nop

well if you copy it maybe but if you do it specifically through steam it should auto detect it

[obsidian oak]

sorry for the new question, but thankfully this one isn't a problem, it's just a yes or no one. Does grass grow on green tiles with the immersive farm mod?

[oak solar]

should do yup

[quaint gorge]

it continues to not work

i dont even get a prompt to enter a new path, it's just like. "Oops! The installer failed!"

i just moved it to my desktop for the time being but it's still looking in the old place and i'm not sure how to adjust that.

[snow prism]

can you send a screenshot of the installer window?

where it says it falled

[lone bolt]

Is there any good way of telling which mod is causing the most lag?...I may have added a couple too many than ideal. Any particular profiler recommended?

[dusky canyon]

Profiler by SinZ

(on Nexus)

You could also post your log if you want

[lone bolt]

Perfect. Thanks. No errors in log...Just a lot of mods (66) so lag a few times it seems

[green lily]

whats the ID for a foraging buff if i wanna do it in console. wiki doesnt list any

nvm i can just like. give myself forage buff food ig

[lone bolt]

Hmm. Darn it just seems like might have to live with it...A couple mods taking 100-200ms...

[dusky canyon]

nono, I mean I know a couple mods that would impact performance

Otherwise I suggest trying out the pinned messages in #969807675955236874

[lone bolt]

you're welcome to look. Fairly clear to me I'd just have to disable a few. It's not that bad lag though just a few transitions taking too longhttps://smapi.io/log/f13bbc24c2ea4b798ed7e9170d910734

[gaunt gust]

Hum

Did you unzip the installer?

[snow prism]

redownload it into the download folder

then unzip it there

make sure its not in your temp folder

[quaint gorge]

un
unzip the installer?

[snow prism]

yes

[lone bolt]

the folder the installer came in

[snow prism]

rightclick then select extract here

[lone bolt]

you double clicked it to open

[quaint gorge]

OH yeah i did that

[lone bolt]

instead right click and extract

[quaint gorge]

no i unzipped it, and extracted it

[snow prism]

make sure its not in a Temp folder

but in Download or so

[quaint gorge]

i thought shekurika meant the actual like... program and i got a little bit scared because i did not know what that meant lmao

[dusky canyon]

I definitely recommend getting the beta's and alphas from the thread I linked you. Also, I don't think I see any mods using Entoarox Modding Utilities, is there a reason you still have it?

[lone bolt]

There was a dependency. Don't remember offhand

[lament prairie]

try removing it and see what complains?

[gaunt gust]

Extended minecart

[lone bolt]

oh. but the lag might not be mod related is what you're saying. Will try the alpha smapi

[gaunt gust]

Alpha automate might help

[dusky canyon]

For some users it is and for others not 😅

[lone bolt]

and ah yes. Can't do without my extended minecart.

Also taking any interesting mod suggestions to add to my already full kitchen sink. 😄

[quaint gorge]

done, gets the same error message

[lament prairie]

there's a newer minecart mod

[naive drum]

Theres a newer mod, minecart patcher, that has a content pack that also extends the minecart

[snow prism]

screenshot?

[lament prairie]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/11424 dunno if this helps

[snow prism]

wait, smapi itself copies the stuff into the temp folder maybe 🤔

[quaint gorge]

i moved stardew but maybe i should move it back? since it keeps looking where steam usually installs this stuff.

[dusky canyon]

this has recommendations from users in this community

[lone bolt]

Interesting. Will have to look at it. I don't quite need to replace extended as only issue I have is MP with beach minecart or the wizard minecart in winter...but would be good to remove that extra dependency.

[snow prism]

@tired brook any idea what could solve this?

[gaunt gust]

Yeah, the second unzip

[gaunt gust]

Just do the manual install

Instructions in readme

[quaint gorge]

lays down and begins to sob

that will be a tomorrow thing then

ty for trying to help tho!

[flint quest]

so i want to use a sve furry mod conversion but it hasn't been updated since 2021 and the mod author has not been active since 2021 October so im wondering if anyone has an unoffical update or can contact the developer known as rtgrl
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9529?tab=posts

[wet fog]

Hello again! So with the help of @timber bane I have finally gotten rid of the 11 out of 12 cats. Now I’m having an issue of the event repeating after every day rather than every load. Any new suggestions?

[strange sky]

Question, how do I turn the smoothing off in this mod?

[golden acorn]

We're do I put new clothes every day file

[ornate tide]

Its in the config, if you have gmcm it will also show up there

[strange sky]

gmcm?

[ornate tide]

the mod is marked as broken on smapi.io

generic mod config menu

[strange sky]

I’m sorry, I’m still very new to mods, I barely started using them yesterday or the day before

[ornate tide]

I see, its more recommended to use gmcm if youre new then

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

[strange sky]

I do have it

But I don’t know how to use it exactly

[golden acorn]

Thank you

[ornate tide]

On the main menu, the title, theres should be a little cog/gear on the bottom left

You should be able to find spritemaster from there

[strange sky]

Okay thanks a lot!

[graceful forge]

does anyone know if Khadjia's Recipe Shop and SVE work together? I think they should but I dont want to mess up, sorry for being super specific

[robust bison]

yes

[graceful forge]

thank you so much

[strange sky]

What exactly should I turn off?

[ornate tide]

something something rescaling, I'll check

[strange sky]

Scaler gradient or something like that?

Or is it resampling?

[ornate tide]

wait

no sorry, theres a resampling thing, just untick that box

[strange sky]

Oh, ok

Thanks!

[flint quest]

Still looking out for this.

I've told the sve discord but have not got a response

[jaunty ginkgo]

stardew on gamepass is no longer moddable

dont have access to the files

https://www.pcworld.com/article/623123/how-to-install-or-move-your-xbox-pc-games-to-any-folder.html\

they changed the rules for gamepass on PC to where some games' files are untouchable

[tired brook]

Something (probably a security app) is blocking the installer's access to the temp folder, so it's not able to unzip the SMAPI files. Pausing any security apps might fix that.

[lament prairie]

did something change literally just now? This article is from march

[tired brook]

@jaunty ginkgo Just to make sure, did you try the steps at https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Xbox_app? They still worked last time I checked a couple of weeks ago. I can check again with a fresh install if you're having issues.

[lament prairie]

some users may need to entirely uninstall the game and/or in extreme cases, gamepass itself, and then reinstall

[tired brook]

Yeah, it's a bit confusing because the Xbox app has changed how things work multiple times recently, so these steps only apply to users with the latest Xbox app version and a recent install of the game.

[quaint gorge]

do you know is avast does that naturally? that's what i'm using

[wet fog]

Still looking for some help with this as well 🙂

[tired brook]

Not sure about this specific issue, but I've definitely seen Avast causing issues in this channel before.

[quaint gorge]

i see

[tired brook]

@wet fog Does that still happen if you back up your save file (see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Back_up_or_transfer_between_two_PCs), remove all mods except SMAPI and Error Handler, and then try it?

[quaint gorge]

😔 sad. did not work.

ah well, ill see about a manual install tomorrow. ty for chipping that in tho!

[lament prairie]

It doesn't happen on a new save (iirc)—not sure if the new issue happens on a new save or not

If nothing else works, I can't test anything right now but this is a very simple CP mod that erases that event from existence

Assuming I didn't typo anything

And that entry deletion works the way I remember it does

[wet fog]

At this point I may just need to get rid of it and not have a pet. Which sucks but idk what to do

[wet fog]

I could try it. I have made a copy of of my save file

[tired brook]

Yep, that'll inform the next steps (whether that's running your save through a debug build of the game or narrowing down which mod causes it).

[wet fog]

Is there a mod for error handler?

[tired brook]

Yep, it's installed by default by SMAPI. If you deleted it, you can run the SMAPI installer again to re-add it.

[wet fog]

I have SMAPI installer already on my computer. Does that folder need to be in my mods folder when launching stardew

[lament prairie]

No, you should already have a copy of error handler in your mods folder

It should be in a folder named Error Handler

Re-running the installer will also put it back, but it should be there from before when you ran the installer the first time

[wet fog]

Okay okay, I see it. I was just clicked in another folder. 🤣

I’ll run that save file and see if it happens

[wet fog]

Okay so when I removed all mods, I have the cat as my pet and no event triggers

[wet fog]

Should I just begin adding one mod back at a time?

[lament prairie]

Yeah, although you could do it in batches potentially?

And then when a batch pings bad, go through that batch 1 by 1

[wet fog]

Okay, I’ll do batches of 3, see what happens. When I locate the mod thats causing it, what should I do?

[lament prairie]

Let us know!

Then we can dig into the mod

[wet fog]

Okay, and its okay if I have mods in my file that potentially wont load because others are missing?

[lament prairie]

You might have to start by adding some key frameworks

Let me take a look at your log to suggest some

[gaunt gust]

Can we get a harmony summary?

I.....suspect a c# mod personally. Maybe one that caused event 65 to be forgotten

It may not nnecessarily be a harmony mod though

[wet fog]

Custom compan, grandpas farm, SVE, jsn assets, content patcher, SAAT, winter grass, spacecore, expanded pre conditions, pytk-2

[lament prairie]

I would start with:

• json assets
• content patcher
• farm type manager
• mail framework mod
• shop tile framework

[indigo tinsel]

Can I add mods on mobile

[vale cedar]

can u install mods on mobile? if so, pls show how

[lament prairie]

!androidsmapi

[native dragon]

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

[clever arch]

https://smapi.io/log/53b29d7c89034887810d06f79c7a5453 having issues with a recolor; this is near lewis' house during the summer in Pelican Town.

[lament prairie]

you possibly have two conflicting recolors, you certainly have a lot going on in the relevant tilesheet

Editing spring town:
Vibrant Pastoral
Way back PT
Juliet, Jessie
Simple Foliage

Editing spring outdoors:
Vibrant Pastoral
way back PT
Medieval Buildings
Simple foliage

So try removing some of those and see if you can figure out which of those you want to be showing and whether they are configurable

[ornate tide]

way back pt replaces the flower pots in town so its probably clashing with vibrant pastoral recolor?

[wet fog]

I found the mod that was the problem, which im not surprised as when i updated SVE my issues started arising. Stardew Valley Expanded is the mod causing the issues.

[lament prairie]

Okay, can you try to delete all of it and reinstall? Just in case it's something gone wrong in the install

[wet fog]

I'll start with the reinstall and see if it fixes anything

[lament prairie]

If that doesn't fix it, we send Flash a bug report and we can dig into the enormous content.json, i guess

[wet fog]

grandpa's farm wont work without SVE so i can reinstall that one too

[shut urchin]

i need help

my game keeps breaking on emily's forest scene

like my character is in a bush

and then nothing happens

[lament prairie]

Install noclip to at least get you out of the scene

I don't even remember Emily having a forest scene?

What's happening in the scene, and is it added by a mod?

[shut urchin]

10 star scene

im pretty sure

[lament prairie]

oh, i see—I've never dated her. ok, let's a log to see what edits that

!log

[native dragon]

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

[shut urchin]

god damn it ill have to do that day again

[lament prairie]

......is this SVE's new woods update.....

[shut urchin]

since i closed my game

im pretty sure the sve is messing with it

[lament prairie]

Install no clip, report to SVE

[shut urchin]

where do i report?

[lament prairie]

Uh, good question

[shut urchin]

and how does no clip help it?

[lament prairie]

.q 5851

[devout pumice]

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

[lament prairie]

No clip lets you walk through anything

[shut urchin]

will i still be able to see the cutscene?

[lament prairie]

I think so

sigh, I guess this is the latest round of SVE breaking things again

Phantasia: also check if there's an SVE update

[shut urchin]

no update in smapi

only 2 mods need updatiing but those dont rly affect my game

[lament prairie]

Ok, then it's probably the SVE adding secret woods changes thing—you can always check by removing SVE

Or by looking in the log to see if anything else edits that event or location

[shut urchin]

its prob just sve

since it looks like a map problem

[lament prairie]

It could be a mod conflict if you have any other mods editing the event or area

[wet fog]

still having the issue even with the reinstall

[shut urchin]

sve changes the forest right?

like theres a bridge

and a maze made with pillars?

[lament prairie]

Phantasia: no clue, I haven't played with SVE in months and never got too far with it anyways

[lament prairie]

Okay, so debugging SVE problems is a trip and a half because it's like one several thousand line file with every edit in it

Have you tried installing the janky little mod I put together that removes the cat event (not the cat, just the event)?

Because if you just want a fix to play, that's your best bet

[wet fog]

lol no i havent

but i can

[lament prairie]

And I don't really feel like fishing in SVE's content json

[wet fog]

i just wanted to narrow it down tbh

Should i post on the reddit page or are you guys going to let them know?

[lament prairie]

I also don't really know what about SVE would do this, but "not editing pets" is clearly not the issue anymore, it's got something to do with events

You should report, I don't think reddit is the best bet though?
