− | * An antivirus hampering SMAPI in loading up the game. Often this results in larger gaps of time than is usual in the log (several seconds to do a very basic task). You can try disabling your antivirus to check if this is the cause, and if that fixes it, re-enabling the antivirus while whitelisting SMAPI, Stardew Valley, and the game folder. | + | * '''An antivirus hampering SMAPI in loading up the game.'''

− | * If you have several hundred mods, you should expect a loading time measured in minutes. The exact loading up time depends heavily on which exact mods you have and what your computer is like. If you have a few very large mods (such as one or more expansion-type mods) you should probably wait a few minutes before deciding something is wrong. If you have PyTK installed but are no longer using it, try removing it to see if this helps the load times. | + | * '''If you have a lot of mods, you should expect a loading time measured in minutes.'''
