Modding:Player Guide/header

This page explains how to install SMAPI (the tool which lets you use mods) on MacOS. See also:

Install

  1. Install .NET 5 (see a pictorial guide).
  2. Download the latest version of SMAPI (see a pictorial guide).
  3. Extract the .zip file somewhere (but not in your game folder!).
  4. Double-click install on Mac.command¹, and follow the on-screen instructions.

That's it! Just launch the game to play with mods. You don't need to change your Steam launch options (that's only needed on Windows).

¹To install manually instead, see instructions in the installer's readme.

Update

Just install the new version; the installer will automatically clean up previous versions.

Uninstall

  1. Launch the installer again (see install steps).
  2. When prompted, choose the uninstall option.

Troubleshooting

  • If the game freezes when loading a save with no error in the SMAPI window, try reinstalling Mono (see install step 1).
  • If the SMAPI window no longer appears after a game update, reinstall SMAPI to fix the launcher.
  • See the troubleshooting page for general troubleshooting.
