Solved Stuck loading after installing Stardew Valley Expanded modpack

[picketpock]

Hello,

This is my first time using mods - I really want to try out Stardew Valley Expanded, but it gets stuck when loading. Last message I see is:

JSON Assets New Objects for Stardew Valley Expanded 1.14.8 by FlashShifter - Adds new fish, objects, weapons, crops, and decorations.

I tried reinstalling Stardew Valley and all the mods in the modpack manually and individually, but it still stops at the same place. The Stardew Valley window pops up but it's just a black screen.

I let it run all night and it was still stuck in the same place. :(

The only thing of note I see is this:

13:29:46     TRACE     SMAPI     Loaded with custom settings: VerboseLogging: True
13:29:49     INFO     SMAPI     You enabled developer mode, so the console will be much more verbose. You can disable it by installing the non-developer version of SMAPI.
13:29:49     TRACE     SMAPI     Verbose logging enabled.

Make sure you're using the regular SMAPI for users. Or if you enabled it via the 'config.json'; set it back to 'false'.
The extra logging can cause some slowdowns.

There's a few errors in the log, but those are related to some loose files; likely from when you extracted the SMAPI installer.

Thanks for replying! I got the same error using the regular SMAPI. I installed the developer one afterwards to see more details.

Ah okay; you may want to try removing SDV Expanded temporarily. Just to see if SMAPI will load into the game on its own.

I found this on the wiki which could be related: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Moddi...PI_takes_forever_to_load.21_.28Select_Mode.29

If not; it lists a lot of other potential things to try.

I removed all my mods and SMAPI still didn't work. I don't see select in the title of it though. But I reinstalled SMAPI from SMAPI.io and it worked! Thanks so much!
