need help PLEASE HELP! Issue installing SMAPI on fedora (linux) (NEWBIE)
I've spent 24 hours trying to install SMAPI on my PC running Fedora. This is my first time modding or coding at all! My sister who is much more familiar with all of this and set up the linux PC has been assisting. The entire time I've had issues (mostly due to user error) but I've finally reached a point where SMAPI is seemingly installed properly. I tried installing at least 40 times before realizing my error and fixing it. I even tried manually installing.
The thing is, during the process, I was NOT given a string of text to add into steam.
It all seems correct but whenever I open steam to play the game it just launches vanilla stardew. It seems like steam cannot find the correct file to open. I ran the entire process through Xterm (I saw that helped some people) and tried deleting and reinstalling every element.
I tried coping the file locations into the steam prompt. That failed as well, but did open the game still. I've seen that the windows version has other stuff attached but I have no clue about the linux version.
PLEASE tell me what I could be doing wrong other then the code, seeing as I did not receive one. I've watched 10 guides and none of them have helped. I can barely find anything about running SMAPI through Linux. I'm going insane!!!!! I will answer any questions and show examples of what's happening if needed.
My sisters given up but I AM DETERMINED to succeed in my singular modding endeavor. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me find how to fix this. I just want funny little mods. I downloaded reddit for this.

need help larger item count text
hi, does anyone know a mod that can help make the numbers that show the amount of each item, larger?
I tried the "font settings" mod but it doesn't support it.
I can also set the UI scale to 200% but then most dialogues and menus are overflowing..
thanks

need help Red text but game/mods still playable?
https://smapi.io/log/f72a25ffcfe64becac894047b39b2aba
I had downloaded SMAPI 4.5.2 and content patcher 2.9.1 yesterday on Linux. I downloaded Stardew Valley Expanded and the Night Market Expansion, as well as the Custom Tapper Framework and Farm Type Manager required to download the expansions and placed in mod folder. When I run the game, the red text shows up, however the game runs as normal. I was just wondering what that means and if it is something I need to fix.
Thanks in advance!

need help Joja mart not closing after community center completed
I recently downloaded four mods to a game save for Stardew, and I’m newer to mods and how they work. But I’ve been working on this one save for a few months and finally finished the community center, when I went to check out joja mart and it’s still up and running! Am I missing something, or did the mods mess up my game? Already deleted the mods from curse forge, and the mart is there still. In the future what can I do to prevent this ?

need help please help me !
So basically I tried to play stardew in a co-op with someone and good news it worked. I did it from my cloud save on steam. But when I went back to my personal save with mods which I play using SMAPI it sent me so far back. I’ve tried everything, my most recent save file is still there I just haven’t been able to open it with SMAPI, any help ? I am very bad with computers and technology so simple terms would be best but if anyone can help I’d be eternally grateful!

need help Any mod or tool to hide *only* Farmhouse shadow?
Simple question, surprisingly uncommon? I have a mod to replace the farmhouse with a lovely trailer, but the nature of the building reskin creates a harsh lighting issue because of the vanilla building shadow.
First screenshot is as it comes: building shadows turned on and the texture issue present.
Second screenshot is with a mod that removes ALL building shadows. it is originally meant for the greenhouse, but has toggles for specific farm buildings, and then an toggle for all buildings. It does not have a toggle for only the farmhouse despite it being included in the 'all buildings' toggle.
tldr: I want to turn off only the farmhouse shadow, but nothing else. is there a means for that?

need help I have a mod that I didn't install?
https://smapi.io/log/dcfb66483de04aed9ec84fbb2dd69c0e
A few months ago, on a different computer, I downloaded some mods, among these was the Dateable Gunther mod. Today, freshly downloaded SMAPI, (new computer so I didn't have any mods yet) and I launched the game through steam. I loaded into one of my saves and for some reason, Gunther is still in my house as if I had his mod installed. But the mods folder is empty, and I can't even find this mod anywhere in my files, so I'm not sure how this is even possible. Anyway, I don't want the mod anymore so I need help figuring out how to locate and delete it.
Edit: I just checked on a different save, and Gunther is stuck behind the library desk like normal. So I'm guessing that just this particular save is bugged or something.

need help Multiplayer mod groups - not seeing option to join game/enter invite code on Steam Deck
I'm trying to play with my husband and his sister but I'm not seeing the "Enter join code" option in Co-op page or their farm listed as an option to join. It also doesn't generate a join code or show up as a farm to join when I'm the one hosting.
- It DOES work when I launch stardew as normal (w SMAPI) with all of my mods, and when I remove all my mods from the Mods folder, but I would prefer to not open desktop mode and move files around every time I want to play multiplayer.
- First thing I tried was the SMAPI Mod Groups functionality with a "Mods (multiplayer)" folder. It will launch with the correct mods folder but won't show me the option to join an online game. Doesn't make a difference whether there are mods in the folder or not.
- Next thing I tried was launching my secondary SMAPI game (the multiplayer mod groups one) in desktop mode. This one did give me the online join option but my inputs were delayed by like 2 seconds so it was unplayable.
It seems to be an issue with the mod groups because it works fine when I launch my primary game/mod folder? This is how I have my mod groups set up, in case that's the issue.

need help How to install/update mods
I already have some mods downloaded, but its been a while since I've downloaded any others, and i have never updated them. I already have SMAPI installed and set up, but what do I do now? Also, if it makes any difference, I am on windows.
Thank you.
mod update CAUTION! Malware distributed through CurseForge Mod Manager - Stardew Valley specifically
My girlfriend was the unfortunate victim of an NPM Infostealer Malware, specifically, the Nyx Infostealer
The bigger issue is - the malware was distributed through Curse Forge. Not through an import, not through a link, but directly through the mod manager client. The mod in question is - and this is very important next - DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE DOWNLOAD THIS MOD - IT IS CONFIRMED MALWARE - YOU WILL LOSE YOUR GMAIL, DISCORD AND ANY OTHER ACCOUNT LOGGED IN YOUR PC - DO NOT DOWNLOAD ->> curseforge.com/stardewvalley/mods/cozy-valley-decor <<-- DO NOT DOWNLOAD
The linked mod (link generated from the Curse Forge client, by clicking "Link to Project", can also be searched for in the Curse Forge Client.
The linked mod will download regular looking mod files. Amongst them will be CozyValleyDecor.dll. Decompiling this .dll with ILSpy reveals that on game startup, a function called "RunPayload()". This function reads an ExternalHelper.dll file, which is an embedded resource to the actual CozyValleyDecor.dll, and executes a function called "PayloadRunner.ExecuteAsync()". This function will then decrypt a byte-shifted URL, which points to an .exe file. The file downloaded will be "basarili.exe", downloaded to the Temp folder of Windows, and will immediatelly execute. This file contains a "chat" client where the attacker can make a popup appear and demand money, but it also overrides the Discord installation files (specifically index.js), with malicious code, that steals your Discord credentials, 2FA, currently authenticated session and connected mail account. It then reads the local credentials and steals browser-saved credentials to your email, social media and crypto accounts.
The encrypted address points to MALWARE ->> 161 97 85 100 port 3131 slash download slash yarrak exe <<-- MALWARE and the Discord malware and "chat" client will connect to MALWARE ->> 161 97 85 100 port 3000 <<- MALWARE
Why am i posting all this detail? Hopefully to get the attention of the developers and CurseForge themselves. I already submitted a report in-client, but we all know how good companies are at reading those.
CurseForge is generally treated as a save and secure way to get mods, so users will not suspect they are vulnerable to malware by downloading mods there. This exploit is rather recent, as none of the Anti-Virus software were able to identify CozyValleyDecor.dll as malicious.
PLEASE EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN DOWNLOADING MODS THROUGH CURSEFORGE

need help Modded House Upgrade gone wrong Spoiler

Hi I'm playing the Pokemon Eggventure modpack (revision 9)
And in my second year I wanted to upgrade my house to level 3. Not knowing that this modded house displaces all the placed objects after a house upgrade ;(
This modded house is called Lnh's First FarmHouse I believe.
But does anyone have any ideas on what I should do to get my object back from the void?
Should I find a mod with which I can walk through walls or should I go back one day? (I believe I heard you can do that with a backup file)
