Greetings!

 

I've downloaded SMAPI, it seems to be working. I can launch the game etc.

 

I tried to install my first mod I've gotten off Nexus, and it doesn't seem to do what it's supposed to. I went with something that seemed simple, an enlarged refrigerator; https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1191. I followed the install steps, and have the "ExpandedFridge" folder inside to my Stardew Valley mods folder. I've changed the "config.json" file to 4 as instructed, but when I load the game, the fridge inventory is the same as always.

 

Is it because the mod hasn't been updated to the new beta version? Or is there a step I'm missing somewhere?

So it does look like it's a version problem, but it also looks like most mods aren't compatible to the new Beta update. Guess it's a bad time to get into mods, eh?

 

I'd still love advice from veteran modders, if anyone has input.

One really useful resource I've found is this page: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:SMAPI_compatibility#SMAPI_mods

 

It will tell you what mods are compatible to the most recent version of the multiplayer beta. (If you're not using the beta, there's a link at the top of the page for the most current non-beta version.) It will tell you what mods are up to date and what mods aren't - and, what's more, it often links to unofficial updates made to open-source mods, when the mods themselves haven't been (and may never be) updated.

 

I tested the unofficial update to the Extended Fridge mod (found here: https://community.playstarbound.com/attachments/expandedfridge-1-2-9-unofficial-1-f4ith-zip.201705 ) and it was working just fine as of yesterday. But as you'll see from the mod compatibility list, both of the mods listed that expand fridge space are broken in their official versions...although they have non-official versions up and running.

 

I hope that helps!

Thanks for the responses, and yes I guess I just picked a bad time to get into mods. The ones I tried were all incompatible with 1.3 I'll just have to see if the ones I want update, and go from there.
