This page explains how to install SMAPI (the tool which lets you use mods) on macOS.

See instructions for: AndroidLinuxSteam DeckWindows.

Install

  1. Download the latest version of SMAPI (see a pictorial guide).
  2. Extract the .zip file somewhere (but not in your game folder!).
  3. 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 you are getting the Operation not permitted: 'internal' error, do the following steps:
    • Open System Preferences
    • Go to "Security and Privacy", then go to the "Privacy" tab.
    • Scroll down to "Full Disk Access".
    • Click the lock button to make changes, and then use the + button to add Terminal to the list of apps.
    • Try again to run install on MacOS.command.
  • See the troubleshooting page for general troubleshooting.
