This page explains how to install SMAPI (the tool which lets you use mods) on Windows. See also:
Install
- Part 1: install SMAPI
- Run the game without SMAPI at least once so it can do first-time setup.
- Download the latest version of SMAPI.
- Extract the .zip file somewhere (but not in your game folder!).
- Double-click install.exe¹, and follow the on-screen instructions.
The installer will detect your game and add SMAPI for you. - If you use Steam, continue to the next section. Otherwise just run StardewModdingAPI.exe in your game folder to play with mods.
- Part 2: configure Steam
- You can use SMAPI through the Steam client to enable the overlay and achievements. This requires a few more steps.
- Open your game folder, select the full address, and press CTRL + C to copy it:
File:Modding - installing SMAPI on Windows - Steam 3.png - In the Steam client, right-click on Stardew Valley and choose Properties:
- Click General > Set Launch Options:
- In the textbox...
- Type a single quote (").
- Press CTRL + V to paste the path you copied in step 1.
- Then type this after the path:
\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%
- It should look something like this (with your game path filled in):
File:Modding - installing SMAPI on Windows - Steam 4.png
- Click OK to save your changes.
- From now on, just launch the game through Steam to run SMAPI with the Steam overlay and achievements.
- Open your game folder, select the full address, and press CTRL + C to copy it:
¹ To install manually instead, see instructions in the installer's readme.
Update
Just install the new version; the installer will automatically clean up previous versions. (You don't need to configure Steam again.)
Uninstall
Run install.exe and choose uninstall.
