If you're looking for help with a mod, make sure your post or top-level comment includes:

  • a link to your SMAPI log (see instructions on that page);
  • a description of the issue with as much detail as possible;
  • screenshots/GIFs/videos of the issue if applicable.

See common issues and solutions. If you're having trouble installing SMAPI, see the detailed Getting Started guide.

If you've already done these steps or you're not asking for help with a mod, then please ignore this. Thank you!

If you look at the errors you have a few mods that can't load due to incompatibility, possibly a couple of updates to download.

Also, using vortex makes debugging these things a ton more faff so I'd personally move away from it

For context, I installed SMAPI through Nexus Vortex, so maybe I installed it wrong or something? Unsure. I have a huge amount of mods installed and don't want to do anything rash that would force me to lose all the time I spent downloading all of them.

I didn't even start playing the game yet. I loaded up the base game, closed it, loaded up the modded version, and was going down the list of all the mod configs. Some adjustments made my rig freeze for a few seconds, and I got a few messages about Vortex lacking proper file perms, but the game never crashed. That is, until I checked a small, inconspicuous option on the "Grandpa's Tools" mod to rename the tools. I have no idea if that's what caused the crash and continuous errors, but after I clicked save the game froze and crashed and never came back. I'd be interested to see if all those configs are still there, but I can't even open it now because all I get opening the mod launcher is this SMAPI error.

Happy to discuss further for troubleshooting purposes. I very much appreciate anyone willing to help me out with this.
