I literally followed every step and it doesn't load all the mods when it opens 😭💀 rip my dreams of expanded

Thank you for this tutorial! I've never installed a mod for anything before, and you made the process very easy 😇

I had been struggling for ages and you saved me so much headache, thank you!

Thank you SO much. I'd tried to install it in the past but got quickly discouraged and gave up on it. Your tutorial was the clearest, simplest one I found. I tested it and it works! I am very grateful.

Thank you so much for this great guide! After 1200+ hours on Stardew I'm ready to tackle the Expanded World but I'm not what you'd call the most technically minded...so very much appreciated!

Thank you for this tutorial! I've never installed a mod for anything before, and you made the process very easy

Thank you so much for this guide! I have battled so much to get this working and after following your steps, i had no issues! really appreciate it

thank you so so much for this video! i always kept receiving errors of the mod not being installed correctly when I had done everything correctly, this video was so simple and easy and I appreciate it sm! definitely giving you a sub and going on a mod spree :) ❤

Thank you for such a straight forward and easy to follow tutorial! I'm really intimidated by mods but have wanted to give it a try for a while now but found myself really confused. Your video saved my ass, rock on man

So thankful for that snoppit about closing the log at the end, no ones ever informed me of that and ive watched a thousand modding vids bc i always forget the entire process

Thank you SO MUCH for this tutorial, it helped immensely with setting everything up!! I had no idea where to start, and this is the first time I've tried installing mods for Stardew, so this was very helpful :]

I had to watch a few different videos which didn't end up helping me but you did! Thank you you have a few extra steps that others left out and that's what I was needing. This is the first time I've added mods to a game.

ive been wanting to install this mod for a while so thank you for making this video!! It helped a lot :D

I have beeN STRUGGLING FOR MONTHS and this video helped me in less than an hour. Thank you!

beautiful voice I was having a headache when I wanted to play stardew and one of my friends told me to add expanded mod to it and here I am listening to a calm and beautiful voice that not increase my headache like other youtubers thanks a a lot

I've watched so many videos like this before and no matter what i've done i've always got that dreaded red text of "Not installed correctly". This video however just made it so much more straight forward and now i've finally got it working. Couldn't appreciate it more - thank you! Time to spend far too many more hours of my life on this game.

Thank you so much for this tutorial on how to install this. I love that you take it step by step and show where to find the stuff, sadly though after following this tutorial, I guess with mine after doing it right like how you did, mine didn't work. But I will still follow your guide for other mods to install on Stardew.

Thank you so much! Never thought I' be able to do this myself , but now I got it. This was so nice to follow!

I've been tinkering with this for a WEEK to figure it out. Me and my besties who finall got a PC have been wanting to play this together and thanks to your vid, I figured out the steps I was missing. THANK YOU SOO MUCH!!!!

worth mentioning coming from someone who just downloaded this, when you load the API version of the stardew make sure you load it as administration, it is an API which without approval are almost always blocked by local firewalls. Perfectly safe tho!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I struggled all day trying to do this but this video helped me get it done in like 15 minutes.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was intimidated, but you made it so simple and didn't make this video last an hour. Thanks!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I always hate installing mods cause the instructions make my brain leak out of my ears, but you made this clear and much easier to understand. Now I can finally start making my ultimate cheat farm on Steam now that my unmodded Switch farm is reaching its conclusion.

Thank you so much, this helped so so so so much! the blank tutorial thing almost made me cry because I've never done anything like this before, thank you!!!!!

Thank you for the tutorial!! Just reached perfection on the normal game and I'm not ready to let it go quite yet :D

So wonderful and helpful, first time doing a modded version of a game and definitely was nervous about downloading stuff.

Thank you for the help with this!! It was so easy to follow, I appreciate this video so much! :D

I was really worried because I couldn't load the mods and always in the terminal said that my mods were being skipped, I have to learn to read more, I didn't know that there was a github page with all the needed mods, thank you!

you have saved my life lmao this was so hard THANK YOU TUTORIAL GOD

It’s just doesn’t open for me

thank god for this video, it's so straightforward and easy

Mine wont open- like a double click on the api after i got everything- for a split second it opens the terminal but immediately disappears

Thank you very very much for taking the time to make this video! ❤

This was super useful but when I launch it, the black screen says stardew expanded cannot be added even after I added all the mods. I can’t figure out why, I’ve tried unzipping the files and made sure I have every download but it says something is missing but won’t say what. :(

I did everything and I'm still getting red texts saying I'm missing certain assets that i downloaded but I did those the same way I did everything else 😭

Dose the SMAPI need to be in the mods folder too cause when i try and open the game nothing pops up

Thank you this all works perfectly now, very easy to follow 😊

Did the required mods change with the update for 1.6? Because the download guide now tells me that I only need SMAPI, content patcher and farm type manager, but in your video aswell as in my first download of stardew expended, there were way more mods required, bsp extra map layers or SpaceCore. The required mods shown in your video (that apperently aren't required anymore?? idk help) seem really important for the whole mod experience tho, would you suggest just downloading them anyways??

Hello there I was just need to your I thank you for showing me how the mod this is my first ever timewalking stardew valley and it was really cool and hopefully you'll get more views thank you

Thank you so much! I finally succed to instal SV Expanded 🎉❤

I was actually able to open the modding api but when it loaded it said there were 0 mods and nothing changed from the original game

you're saving my life here thank you sm

Thank you so much, I could follow this and it worked for me :)

Hey, it worked, you're awesome, thank you so much. I struggled for so long lol

I followed the video exactly, and everything she did popped up on my end and it went perfectly until I got towards the end. Where are you supposed to open the game and tested and my game will not open now and I can’t play.

this is the best tutorial ive found! sitting through the long boring opening cut scene to see if it works! edit, it does not work, i followed the steps exactly, and it just opens up regular stardew

I tried everything and nothing seems to work. I’ve downloaded smapi on nexus and mostly all my mods and even tried moddrop. This is just frustrating :(

I did everything like in the video. It opens Stardew automatically like hers did. But when I went to check there was everything like in normal Stardew. I don’t know what I did wrong

TYSM!! i was so mad when it said "downloads capped at 3whatever tf for non premium" so thanks for clearing it up!

Do my mountains have to look exactly the same as yours? I see some in the top left but IDK if theyre normally there. I don't know much about the game. The SMAPI in that black screen is red and says it skipped some mods. Is there something wrong with it?

this has been very helpful! but i still have a question on how to do it , because it doesn't let me launch the game through the API modding shortcut ( it closes in literally a millisecond), and when i launch it with the normal game it works and opens with the command prompt and everything , saying that i have 17 mods loaded, but when i get in the game i see no difference, none of the mods are working.

When I search "steamapps" on my PC it says the folder is empty. I have steam downloaded and everything so Im kind of stumped. Im not sure what to do now :')

This only took me a while because of my stupidity that's it tbh but great video! Very helpful

Thank you so much! You're an absolute lifesaver!

I try loading it up, I have everything installed, but it always says its with 3 mods, idk what I did wrong 💀

this video is quite old now, but where did you get your wallpaper from??? also - THANK YOU SO MUCH this helped :]

I followed the exact instructions but for some reason when it loads, a bunch of red text comes up and it closes. It says there's a problem with SAAT, which is required, so the mod doesn't work without it, but it's also the problem so I don't know what to do???

Steamapps isn’t showing up for me, what should I do to get/find it?

Hi, it says my stardew valley expanded mod isn’t downloaded correctly and immersive farm 2 is not working cos stardew expanded didn’t load. What should I do? I rlly want to play

can you help me? there's a thing that says "type the file path to the game directory (the one containing 'stardew valley.dll'), then press enter." in cmd how can I find that so I can proceed on pressing 1. thank you!

it keeps saying three mods aren’t working and idk what’s wrong 😭 content patcher, spacecore and expanded preconditions arent working

thank you so much for this amazing tutorial!

This is super helpful. Thank you very much.

i love you thank you, I was searching for this

i think i'll have to delete the files and give this another go sometime soon, because somehow even with following this video step by step i still can't get the expanded version to work :') the stardewmoddingAPI just opens up a regular stardew game, i must have goofed something up in the download process or something

It’s nor showing direct download do you think you could do a tutorial for downloading on nexus please?

I downloaded everything but the pufferfish won't open, someone please help me. (Before I downloaded the mods it opened so I don't know what the issue is).

im only missing the mountains... it doesnt show on my map and idk if there are some paths missing in my extension. could it be because i dont have the latest version?

when you go to files and see the number 3 do we have to download all three of them or just the top one?

can i do this in alienware laptop? i want to know before i TRY to do it because i’m scared. I am not very good in computer and technology that kind of stuff.

Thank you, this was so helpful!

Oh my goodness. I am kindergarten and this helped so much. I forgot to extract again once I downloaded all the other mods, but up and running and was never able to get it before. Thank you!

How do I get the stardewmod dingAPI to oppen? It just won't load oppen what do I do??

hi! for some reason the game wont start? i think i did everything that it said in the video? can someone please help me

You’re amazing! Thank you so much 🙏

I followed this video to the T and for some reason it is not working for me....did something change? Everything looks like I have all the correct files. Help :(

I did everything the same but I can't get the black screen or any response??

I have too the problem that it doesn't open when I have it on my desktop and even when I have the icon in the folder does it open but with only 3 mods....

Thanks, it was a pleasant and comprehensible video

when i opened the file that says install on windows it just says that they couldnt find the game automatically and i need to type a file now idk what to doo

I followed every steps and it doesn't work for me somehow... Put the StardewModdingAPI on my desktop and double clicked on it like you did, for nothing to open up, then left it in the files page, double clicked it, the coding page opened up but then nothing else happened. Have I done something wrong? Did I miss a step? I have no clue

The contents inside of my pantaloons which is located inside of my trousers seems to be itchy

My mods aren’t working? it says I have 0 Mods when I open stardew and I downloaded the stuff I need to run stardew expanded It still Said 0 mods And when I take Stardew expanded out of its folder and place it in mods It saying stardew I have one mod but then The red Appears Saying I can’t run because I don’t have the mods needed. what do I do?

Followed all the steps Modded Stardew App doesn't open up also you didn't explain where to put the downloaded files in I just dragged them into mods

I’ve gotten to 4:12 where I click the icon and the black screen is supposed to show up but it keeps popping up for just a second and going away I’m so sad 😭

It's not working for me, I have all the mods and the tools it needs for the game but it says I'm missing something any tips??

Thaaaaaaaankss!!!!

what do i have to do if i get errors?

thank you for this tutorial! it worked really well for me and helped me a bunch when i was installing SVE quite a while back but now i do just want to know how to delete the mod or turn it off because i do want to play my old original save files without the mod again but nevertheless thank you for the tutorial

I think I did everything in the tutorial but when I try and open the StardewModdingAPI it doesn’t open? It like starts to but immediately crashes. any help?

I have it all downloaded but when i click the weird chicken lmao on the desktop it opens something and closes immediatly

this helps a lot. i cant follow written directions anymore

I tried to put mods on my game earlier and the tutorial I used had none of this. Nothing had a chicken icon I don’t know what to do I might just leave my game unmodded

i'd just like to mention that if you don't use the default Drive and have steam on another disk drive your gonna wanna use the custom path- i had this problem cause it wasn't exactly mentioned

What happens when you go to click on the stardew expanded icon and the black screen doesn’t show up? It comes up for not even a second. I’ve tried everything please helppp

The Stardew valley modeling API won’t open on my desktop, it like wings open for a second and then closes, does anyone know any fixes?

This is so helpful thanks!

it's still not working for me. i keep getting the big chunk of red text. I've done it before but got rid of it could it be that I have old files downloaded still? how do I get rid of those?

Works splendidly! :D Thanks!

i have never tried mods before is it possible to still unlock steam achievements while playing with mods? or can u only get achievements in vanilla
