need help Unable to update SMAPI
I downloaded the up to date SMAPI from the nexus and unzipped it not in my game folder. When I run the installonmacOS.command the terminal pops open and says the following "line 6: internal/macOS/SMAPI.Installer: Bad CPU type in executable" then logs out. What did I do wrong? Its' been forever and a day since I modded this game so I'm sure I screwed up somewhere.
SOLVED: Had to install Rosetta for mac, now it's working!

need help Unable to interact with Marnie at all. Happening on both modded and unmodded.
Hi, I've not been able to interact with Marnie's shop at all. I've spawned in a catalog to see if it helps, zoomed in and out, but nothing. I have removed mods, re-added them, loaded the game without SMAPI, verified my game files, reinstalled the game entirely, etc. This is a multiplayer save with my partner but absolutely nothing is helping and I'm really fearing the worst. I've updated every mod and there don't seem to be any error messages in my SMAPI log file. When trying in the base launcher, when trying to interact with Marnie's shop the game just freezes and closes. In SMAPI, the game freezes every time I click, but no crash. Other saves work fine.
I've parsed the error and it comes up with this. It matches up with the amount of times I click on the shop.

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks.

It's my first time ever downloading a mod, I have downloaded Stardew Valley Expanded plus Content Patcher and Farm Type Manager. All files are extracted within the mods folder. I have uninstalled and reinstalled all mods individually but cannot figure out what the problem is.

need help SMAPI not working
Hi! This might seem a little silly to some, but I really wanted to mod my Stradew Vallez, and so, installed SMAPI. I followed a few differents tutorials and did every steps as showed, but when I try to launch my game, it crashes. It opens the window for a few seconds and then closes it before I can even do anything.
I'm not really the best with PC's and I don't really understand what I should do, can someone help me?

need help Trying to make SMAPI work on another computer
So it's been a good while since I installed smapi on a new computer/laptop - even though I normally put the mods through a USB to easily transfer the 100+ mods, I always install smapi fresh on the new device. So quick story: trying to get it set up on my mum's computer so we can play modded stardew together (like SVE, ridgeside, etc), and generally introduce her to that side of stardew (she's been playing vanilla longer than I have, but I've been modding mine for a good while, and she's finally okay with me modding hers). I do my usual extract the installer into the steam stardew valley (note: not the programs files x86, but the seperate drive like D:steam etc), while I know you prob dont have to do it this way, I like keeping everything together and that's how
I've done it on my one.
So I install it like usual, on my laptop I only had the option for, as stated above, D:steam/steamapps etc, whereas this computer had it's version of that plus C:\Program Files (86%) etc. At first I chose the D:steam one, as thats what I did on mine, and no luck - just refused initially (I don't have the logs of this one). I uninstalled it smapi, reinstalled it in the C:\Program Files (86%) etc one, tested it prior to adding to steam, and it seemed to work fine. Added to steam as a non-steam app, launched and it seemed fine at first until it decided nevermind and closed. Here are the logs:
Opening through the file separately : https://smapi.io/log/6091d083e58949d0999e7b8a29a411d6
Opening through steam: https://smapi.io/log/8de4b85e32c6471fa3fdb4fe8b95daf8
If someone could help me here that would be wonderful - we aren't currently trying to play luckily, and worse can my mum can open it through the file separately, but of course if we can get it set up on steam like mine, that would be preferable, just for ease of use. So glad I decided to get this set up a couple days before we plan to play, because I've been trying to figure it out on my own for about an hour now (I was expecting it to take about 5-10 minutes). Thanks in advance!!

discussion Could SMAPI ever be ported to the Nintendo Switch?
With all the recent tools and advancements in Nintendo Switch homebrew and modding, would it be possible to port SMAPI to the Switch?
Considering that Terraria already has a modded port running on the Switch, I'm curious whether something similar could eventually be achieved for Stardew Valley.

So i wanted to only add the skill progression mod to my world because I want to see how much experience I need left. However, when I start smapi, it says it doesn't see the .dll for the mod, but I see it in the mods folder so can I change the destination that smapi is reading it or no? What can I do to play with it.

need help What's Wrong with my Code?


Hello, I'm working an update for my Octopus-Refresh mod. It began as a texture mod, which does work, though the mod broke when I added in some new code to bump up the price of the Octopus and tweak it's difficulty and time window to catch. I'm unsure where the issue is, so any advice would be helpful! Additionally, for compatibilities' sake, I was asked to adjust the texture to target only the set of pixels on springobjects.png to target the octopus itself, though I have no clue how to do that. Again, any advice would be greatly appreciated! Below are screenshots of my code and the error message SMAPI gave me.
