Issue (Fixed) [game] FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format.

[Jane5962]

So recently i reset everything on my computer. I had saved up all my files from stradew valley, the ones from steam and the one that's in the the Roaming file in appdata. When i tried to put everything back in the right file, my save was not showing up in Load and i had a error showing off on Smapi.

[game] Exception occured trying to access file 'C:\Users\jeann\AppData\Roaming\StardewValley\Saves\Aquarelle_314897645\SaveGameInfo'

I'm not at all a pro at that, i have no idea how to fix it.. at first i thought maybe it was a save issue. i tried to remove the most recent files of my farm and the savegameinfo and remove the _old to the other files.. but still the same exact error .. And after thinking it could be related to my mods i tried updating them via CurseForge , my game was absolutely not Loading so i undo everything .. I'm sure it might be related to one of my mods but since even my save don't show up when i start the game on steam whitout mods i'm just very lost....
.. I hope someone can help me.. Just wanted to play again on my save after a long time ... Thanks in advance !

It looks like your SaveGameInfo has become corrupted and now has some formatting problems.
What exactly do you mean by 'the ones from Steam'?

 

[Jane5962]

The entire file for the game with Stardew valley including my mods. Since i had it saved up before the reset of my computer

After trying what i did with removing the _old at the end of my files , since it was not working, i put back the backup so everything is how i started at first , since i didn't know if that would corrupted everything.

None of the Stardew Steam files are needed for your save file. You could try a file verification, but if you want to reset your PC, all you need to keep are the files located in AppData\Roaming\StardewValley\Saves.

With what you told me, i end up saving just the files with my mods and delete the entire game from steam and reinstall it after. I put back my mods and after updating them to fix the incompatibility of some of them, my save was finally there and i was able to play without any error on smapi. Thanks for guiding me through the right path !
