Stardew Valley Mod Manager

Version: 220502
Release Date: May 20, 2022

About This Release

This is the second update for May, 2022 for the Stardew Valley Mod Manager. This update expands on the brand new user interface we added in version 220501 as well as introducing the next generation of Stardew Valley Modpack files.

New Features:

  • Introduces the next generation of SDVMP (Stardew Valley Modpack) file infrastructure.
  • SDVMP files are now file associated, they will be given an icon and when you double click on them from anywhere in Windows it will auto-launch into the Stardew Valley Modpack Installer.
  • The Stardew Valley Modpack Generator applet has been updated to make the process of creating a modpack even easier.

Next Generation SDVMP Implementation
The next generation SDVMP implementation makes it easier and more reliable to install a modpack. There are some benefits and drawbacks to the new implementation.

Benefits:

  1. Modpacks are installed more reliably with pre-warnings about drive space requirements
  2. Modpacks no longer download files from online, removing issues where internet disconnections broke the process.
  3. Modpacks can now be updated - simply overwriting existing mods with the version in the modpack.

Drawbacks:

  1. The file size of an SDVMP file can now be several hundred megabytes or larger if the modpack includes a large mod. Previously, all SDVMP files were less than 1mb in file size, even if the modpack included hundreds of megabytes in mods - they were just downloaded rather than being pre-bundled.

Bug Fixes and Improvements

  • The application is now over 50% smaller in file size.
  • The user interface has been tweaked slightly, reducing white space and optimising the new user interface design from 220501.
  • #46 - The splash screen is no longer infinitely resizeable.
  • #47 - The program now appears in the taskbar if the user moves to a different display during the splash screen showing.
  • #49 - The program now automatically resets to the presets directory when the user clicks "Load Preset"

Notes

Please note that this is not marked as a pre-release, however this is because the application has been tested among a control group and with the exception of one user that didn't have enough disk space to complete the tests, the application was received well and no major issues were found. This software may still have glitches and issues. We encourage you to create an issue with any bugs you may find.
