SMAPI mod compatibility, July 2017 to April 2018. The two main events are Stardew Valley 1.2 in July 2017, and Stardew Valley 1.3 in April 2018.

Sometimes a mod will stop working due to a major game update; SMAPI automatically disables incompatible mods. This page lists known SMAPI mods and their compatibility with the latest versions, and explains how to fix broken mods if possible.

Check the section applicable to you:

For players (Stardew Valley 1.2)

What to do

  1. For each mod you have installed, follow the instructions in the list below. If it's not listed, try updating to its latest version.
  2. If a mod is still failing, post a message in the SMAPI 2.0 migration thread (with your SMAPI log attached) and we'll help.

SMAPI mods

Here's a list of mods tested with SMAPI 2.5+ and Stardew Valley 1.2.30+. Content packs aren't listed unless incompatible. It's updated periodically for new mod releases.

For players (Stardew Valley 1.3 beta)

What to do

  1. For each mod you have installed, follow the instructions in the list below. If it's not listed, try updating to its latest version.
  2. If a mod is still failing, post a message in the coordination thread (with your SMAPI log attached) and we'll help.

SMAPI mods

Here's a list of mods tested with SMAPI 2.6+ and Stardew Valley 1.3+. Content packs aren't listed unless incompatible. It's updated periodically for new mod releases.

Creating an unofficial update

To avoid conflicting with official updates, here's the recommended way to create an unofficial update. This assumes you're creating a basic update (not a continuation or reinvention), and the code is on GitHub (adjust the steps accordingly if it's elsewhere).

  1. Fork the code.
  2. Make your changes to that fork (see #updating a mod).
  3. Increase the version in manifest.json by 0.0.1 and add -unofficial.1-yourName.
    For example, if the current version is 1.0.0 and your name is SampleUser, change it to 1.0.1-unofficial.1-sampleUser. If you need to release a new unofficial update, just increment unofficial.1 to unofficial.2, etc. This ensures that official versions supersede unofficial ones (e.g. for update checks), and other users can release newer unofficial updates if needed.
  4. Push your changes to GitHub.
  5. Post a release package to the coordination thread with a link to your fork on GitHub.
    (If the mod uses the NuGet build package, there should be a release package named <mod name> <version>.zip in your bin folder.)
  6. Submit a pull request to the original author (if applicable).
