Multiplayer Mod and how to install mods

[Shamanalah]

So there is a daily Thread about "where is meh multyplayrz you never promised?!?!"

There is a multiplayer mod called Makeshift and it's been updated for the past 6 months. Here it is
http://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/501/?

You have to install SMAPI
https://github.com/Pathoschild/SMAPI/releases

Then on the nexusmod website you go into the section "files" and download the latest version.

After installing SMAPI, you go into your Stadew Valley folder (steam folder or whatever you installed if GOG) and there is a mod folder that appeared! HOURRAY!

Now, unzip (or unrar) the mod and dump the folder inside the mod folder (there should already be a folder labeled "trainer mod", place the mod folder next to it, like that http://imgur.com/a/N50eC ). You are done!

Next you launch the StardewModdingAPI and invite your friends via steam before launching the game (after chosing your file)

THERE! Multiplayer (I think it's 4 max, it's not perfect but it works)

So. How long did it take you? 5-10 minutes? How long have you been on this forum just typing instead of actively finding a solution? It took me litterally 1 minutes to find out about this mod and it's because of you guys.

Edit: Yes I use C-B-J (can't have B next to a J apparently) Cheat menu and item spawner, I use it only on my "cheated" file but sadly, it will give steam achievements even if you mod >.> or fortunately, depending how you see it.

Can you please be clear, how this should work exactly? I didn't get the point.

The multiplayer worked for me and a friend 2 days ago via hamachi, but now we can't establish a connection, don't know why..

Maybe your sentence above makes it easier than the IP and Port, if we can invite via steam? But how?

Thanks !

The StardewModdingAPI is next to the StardewValley.exe in the folder of the game (where you found the folder mods)

IDK about hamachi, I have a pc to host stuff on it. But basically you need to load the file and after it you'll get a prompt with the option: Single Player, Host or Client. Then you either host or join via client

You chose the port you forward when you host and join so you can chose whatever you want (if you don't know how to port forward, there's plenty of youtube tutorials, granted you have the password for the router interace, not the wifi access)

Forgot to answer your question. Apparently holidays are bugged and checking the changelog, some event can be buggy, if the host pause the game, the game is paused, but if the client pause the game, it's not pause. So you can abuse it for endless days. Maybe some relationship event/trigger will be buggy too.

It's not perfect but it works... with ups and down :P

Edit2: I'm in no way related to the maker of this mod, I just googled him. Props to Spacechase0 for the mod

I see one big problem with this mod though. Port forwarding.

Thanks for your reply, I did follow the steps form exactly this video before ;)
But for any reason, it don't work anymore (hamachi). Maybe we shall give it a try via
real IP with port forwarding etc.
But thanks for your fast answer.
