I must apologize for the mistake I made in this. Even though this is an updated version, I forgot to edit the manifest to tell it it is 1.0.6, and not 1.0.5. So SMAPI will make you believe that even when you download 1.0.6, it will tell you that it is the old version and not the new version.
For anyone feeling confident in editing the mod, you can go to the manifest.json file and edit the section that says "VERSION", next to it should be 1.0.5. By editing it to 1.0.6, you will no longer get SMAPI (or the ModUpdateMenu mod if you have it) telling you to update this mod. If you're not comfortable with editing it, feel free to ignore the warnings of an update that is not necessary.
My apologies for my lack of...well...not going through everything correctly, and enjoy 1.0.6. There are no plans of updating this anymore as far as I know, with the exception of making sure it is up to speed with Stardew Valley Patchs/Updates.
Hi. If I can make a guess. Is it the error where some music fail to load? Or is it the error from where SMAPI/Stardew Valley fail to launch? Cause those are the two I deal with sometimes, and it's understandable how frustrating it can be.
It usually crashes at startup. But there have been one time where it did start, but the game crawled very slowly at the startup screen so I had to forcefully exit the game.
Mind if I ask how many mods you have? Cause from my experience, when I started cleaning it up and having fewer mods (Went from around 60 mods to 18 after the cleanup), the crashing seems to have stopped (For me anyway).
Quite a lot, I suppose gutting most of them would help. But at this moment, I don't think that I would want to remove the majority of them just yet. We'll see if I ever get to start a new game first, I am still enjoying my current run.
Of course! I gutted most of my JSON mods (Which was like the custom recipes, harvest, trees, etc.), and I will admit, The Orchestra mod is very, VERY big so the size could be the problem as well. So have fun! I will see if there is something that can be done on my end.
I just wanted to say how much I am enjoying this mod. And the music is so relaxing at times! I've been a fan of Adrian von Ziegler for a few years now, so I was excited to try this mod out. And along with all the other wonderful artists you included (including Skyrim and Final Fantasy music), each individual song really enhances and refreshes the atmosphere of Stardew Valley so much! I can tell you put care and effort into choosing each piece. In fact, I'd looked everywhere for a good, alternative music mod with this type of theme, and couldn't find one, and was contemplating making my own when suddenly yours popped up (I guess it was hidden for awhile?) so, thank you!
And yeah, the mod was hidden for a while because I made a newbie modder mistake of not crediting the artists/permissions in a correct manner. So that was an oopsie from me. About a month or so.
And funny you mentioned trying to find a music mod with this type of theme. I made this mod because I used to use a mod that, I believe was called 'Mythic Music' mod and it had music from all kinds of sources/games and I loved the feeling it gave. But then the modder hid it, and said they would update it soon. That was like 3-4 years ago. So I decided to make a mod which would bring this theme to light since there really wasn't anyway.
But yeah, I do plan on updating the mod soon with added music, and I am hoping that will be the final version (Don't take my word for it, always end up finding something better). If not the final version, I might touch at the ambiance but that might not be awhile ^^'
The reason Generic Mod Config is a requirement because Custom music (Which you have to have installed for the music to work) says it requires Generic Mod Config for it to work. It's mostly a safe than sorry method more than anything and doesn't do much to the music.
You can try to go without Generic Mod Config and let me know if anything changes. I just put it out there to be safe than sorry for anyone who downloads this.
Edit: I went back to the file and just noticed the Custom Music mod says it's optional so I will get rid of that requirement for this mod. My apologies ^^'
Hi. The only thing that changed was that one or two songs were replaced, and the credits/permission of the artist(s). It was my first time modding something like this, which is why the mod was out of public view for a good month or two.
For anyone else downloading it, nothing much changed. It was mostly on my end.
Thank you! And Anytime. I do keep updating it multiple times since I do prefer Adrian's music over FFXIV in a few things since I do have permission. If you find any music that might be a better fit in the game (whether replaces the music here or stardew valley music), let me know, as I keep constant eye on music that might be better.
Adrian von Ziegler and Jeremy Soule? You have excellent taste. I may have to give this a try. Not right now, as I'm mid-playthru, but I'll keep this in mind for the future.
Thanks so much! I am actually currently updating it at the moment since the file select song isn't really my favorite at the moment. The updated one also has rain ambiance music as it felt weird just hearing the rain. Thanks for your interest!
