How to install Stardew Valley Mods

Find your game folder

2. Enter this command in the SMAPI console (the second window that opens with the game):
   show_game_files

Option 3: find it through Steam

1. Open the Steam client.
2. Right-click on Stardew Valley.
3. Click Properties.
4. Click the Local Files tab.
5. Click the Browse Local Files… button to open the game folder.

Option 4: find it through GOG Galaxy

1. Open the GOG Galaxy client.
2. In the game sidebar, right-click on Stardew Valley.
3. Choose Manage Installation > Show Folder to open the game folder.

Install mods

To install a mod, just unzip it into the Mods folder in your game folder. Make sure each mod has its own subfolder, without trailing numbers. For example, if you have a PineapplesEverywhere mod, you should have a file structure like this:

Stardew Valley/
-Mods/
–PineapplesEverywhere/
—PineapplesEverywhere.dll
—manifest.json

If you have a lot of mods, you can optionally organise them into subfolders. SMAPI will automatically search inside each folder until it finds one with files.

Stardew Valley/
-Mods/
–Fruit mods/
—PineapplesEverywhere/
—-PineapplesEverywhere.dll
—-manifest.json
—ApplesNowhere/
—-ApplesNowhere.dll
—-manifest.json

If you have a folder that looks like PineapplesEverywhere-1234567890, check inside it for the actual mod folder. Folders named like this often have more folders and possibly readme files inside them.

If you want to disable a folder, just add a dot in front of the folder name (like .disabled mods). Windows won’t let you do that by default, but just put a dot at the end too and it’ll let you (like .disabled mods.).
