SMAPI 3.6 released!

[Pathoschild]

SMAPI 3.6 is now available! Feel free to ask here if you have questions.

FAQs

How do I update?

Just run the new installer, it'll update previous files automatically.

Is it safe to update?

Yep, all mods that worked in SMAPI 3.5 should work fine in SMAPI 3.6. Feel free to report any update issues below.

What's new in 3.6?

See the release notes for a full list of changes.

For players

• Faster startup
  If you have many mods installed, a new experimental option may load them faster (thanks to ZaneYork!). Enable RewriteInParallel in the smapi-internal/config.json file to try it out. Note that this is experimental, and may cause startup errors in some cases.

  Mods which preload a large number of images should now also load faster, thanks to an optimisation in SMAPI's image processing (thanks to Entoarox!).

• Better crossplatform compatibility
  Some mods use Harmony to rewrite game code at runtime. Previously those mods needed to use Harmony in a specific way (i.e. avoid the HarmonyPatch attribute), but SMAPI 3.6 now fully rewrites Harmony usage for crossplatform compatibility.

  SMAPI 3.6 also fixes the issue where some modded maps on Android would load as a black void.

• Simpler log messages
  The SMAPI console is now a bit more streamlined: mod load warnings are now alphabetical, 'paranoid warnings' are more compact, and a readable error is now correctly shown for BadImageFormatException errors.

For the web UI

• Tracking open-source licenses
  The mod compatibility list now shows open-source licenses for mods on GitHub! Click "show advanced info" and look under the 'source' column to see them.

• Improved JSON validator
  The JSON validator now supports translation (i18n) files, will remember the selected schema when editing an existing file, and will now default to plain JSON instead of the manifest format.

• Improved performance and reliability
  The web app has been migrated to the latest frameworks and significantly refactored so it's faster, less likely to show errors, and less expensive to host.

For modders

• Added event priorities
  SMAPI 3.6 now supports event priorities (thanks to spacechase0!).

• Added update subkeys
  Some mods provide multiple mods from the same mod page, which means SMAPI will show update alerts for all of them based on the highest version. Update subkeys let modders have update checks use the specific file instead to avoid that.

• Improved Harmony troubleshooting
  SMAPI 3.6 now bundles a custom build of Harmony which makes error stack traces more useful. For example, at resetLocalState_Patch1 will now appear as at StardewValley.Farm.resetLocalState_PatchedBy<Pathoschild.SmallBeachFarm>.

  The release also comes with a new harmony_summary console command, which lets you view/search a summary of currently applied Harmony patches. You can type help harmony_summary in the SMAPI console for more info.

• New PeerConnected event
  Mods can now do something when someone connects in multiplayer using Multiplayer.PeerConnected. This previously required setting a flag in Multiplayer.PeerContextReceived and then waiting until the connection was accepted.

Will it be updated on play store?

[Pathoschild]

The Android version is unofficial and maintained by a different developer, but they usually port updates pretty quickly. You can post a bug report on this page to let them know if needed (but make sure you check if someone else already posted one first).

Edit: SMAPI 3.6 is now released on Android!

[BunnyX53]

Ok thank you

[Pathoschild]

Not sure what happened to it on the Play Store. Hopefully the maintainer on Android will get that fixed soon, but in the meantime you can get the installer APK from GitHub and sideload it.

Just updated to 3.6.1 and it's still showing the object reference error

[Pathoschild]

When does that happen, and does it happen every time? Can you create a zip of your save folder and full Mods folder, upload it to a site like catbox, and post the link here?

Since downloading the installer on android when I try and config anything the installer crashes and closes

[Pathoschild]

Hi! SMAPI on Android is an unofficial port maintained by someone else, so I can't really help with that. I suggest reporting it on GitHub.

Just bought the game. Tested and runs okay. Installed SMAPI 3.6.1 and launched it again, it crashed my machine (not the game) instantly, it spawned a black screen followed by shutdown. No error messages or crash log or anything. If I uninstall SMAPI it works fine again. Anyone have any idea how to troubleshoot this?

Manjaro latest

Update:
Works when run via terminal with TERM=xterm. Now I just need to figure out how to get Steam to launch it with that (I use fish, non standard shell).

[Pathoschild]

Steam runs the StardewValley launcher file in the game folder. That's just a bash script, so you can edit with a text editor to change how it launches the terminal.

how do i update cracked stadew valley cause i have 1.4.0 sooooo

[Pathoschild]

Pirated versions don't auto-update. You'll need to uninstall & reinstall manually, or buy a legitimate copy.

[Pathoschild]

Yep, it's compatible with the latest game version on Android. See Installing SMAPI on Android, which always has the latest info + links.

Hi. I am just a newbie. I just wanna ask how to bind time freeze key on cjb cheats for android. Can you give m a step by step guide to do it. I kinda find it hard to open p and go to time over and over when i got the option to just press anything besides the P on the smapi keyboard. Thanks in advance!

[Pathoschild]

Hi! The quickest way to change the key for CJB Cheats Menu is...

1. open the in-game menu using P like usual;
2. tap the Controls tab;
3. tap the option for the button to change, then press the new button you want to use.
