Help please game wont load in 64 bit
hi, i have like 500 hours logged on stardew on steam, it was working fine i had like 450 mods which ran fine up until this afternoon. However today I tried to add a farm map from nexus (legacy farm). it was supposed to replace the standard farm but I already had another farm replacing it and forgot (overgrown garden farm)... so i created a new character and when i tried to load the map game crashed, I'm assuming because i had two maps replacing standard farm. I removed the garden farm. Then tried to load and game but it still crashed again. I did this a few times and eventually gave up and created a new save with a different farm that always works for me (water fall farm)... however the game still crashed. i removed the legacy farm, trued to load again but game crashed.

Initially the smapi gave an error log about missing drivers Microsoft xna something and would not load saying the game has ended. i updated my drivers, updated windows, installed xnafx40_redist. still nothing.

then i uninstalled smapi, removed all mods, uninstalled thse and reinstaled the game (5 times), made sure the launch thing was blank, verified the files, deleted startup, updated windows. still it refuses to load unless it set compatibility with 32 bit. I'm at a loss I've been at this for hours.

Processor AMD Ryzen 7 6800H with Radeon Graphics 3.20 GHz

Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.2 GB usable)

System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

... like i said the game worked fine literally last night. It all went wrong with this new farm map and even with all that removed, ie zero mods complete vanilla game it still wont load. if anyone can point me in the right direction i would really appreciate it.

Try reinstalling Microsoft .net framework 5.0, .net framework is known for being a little stupid at times.
