===Can I have different mod groups?===

−

~~You can create multiple Mods folders with different names (like <code>Mods</code> and <code>Mods-MP</code>) for use in different save files, testing, etc~~. After creating the folder, create a shortcut to your SMAPI file and open the <code>Properties</code> menu by right clicking on the shortcut. In <code>Properties</code>, find the <code>Target</code> line and add the following to the end <code> --mods-path "*name of your mods folder*"</code>. Done correctly, it will look like this example <code>"...\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common~~\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" --mods-path "Mods-testing"</code>. You can now use that shortcut to open SMAPI with that mod folder.~~

Yep. There are two common approaches:

−

[https://moddrop.com ''ModDrop''] ~~can also handle~~ up to three mod loadouts ~~at this time. Loadouts~~ can ~~be set up in the app and then clicked to change~~ between ~~them~~.

* Create a separate folders for each mod group in [[Modding:Game folder|your game folder]], like <code>Mods</code> and <code>Mods (multiplayer)</code>. Then create a shortcut to the <tt>StardewModdingAPI.exe</tt> file, right-click it and choose <tt>Properties</tt>, and add this to the end of the <tt>Target</tt> field: <code> --mods-path "Mods (multiplayer)"</code> (changing folder name as needed). Done correctly, it should look something like <code>"your-path-here\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" --mods-path "Mods (multiplayer)"</code>. If you double-click that shortcut, it will launch SMAPI with the specified mod folder. You can add any number of folders and shortcuts this way.

+

* Use the [https://moddrop.com ModDrop] mod manager (Windows-only), which supports up to three 'mod loadouts' which you can switch between.
