Game is unable to spawn wizard after replacing original Wizard file with RRRR sprite and portraits

[Crescent]

I've been having some issues with my game. I was trying to replace the original Wizard.xnb files with the Wizard Sprite and Portraits used for RRRR, yet after I had done it, the game said it couldn't spawn in the Wizard. I've tried everything I can think of, and I couldn't find anything about it anywhere. I've unpacked the content folder and checked the character and Portrait folders, and everything should be working since the new sprite and portraits were there. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? I just want to play the new 1.6 update T^T (And yes, I have downloaded all the new mod versions compatible with 1.6)

You should never, ever, EVER replace ANY files in your content folder with modified ones. Use content patcher. You will have to reset your game files - if you use Steam, rightclick Stardew in your steam library, click Properties, click Installed Files, then click Verify Integrity of Game Files.

It says there are 0 files to validate, what does that mean? Also, I have done this on another one of my computers and everything worked just fine, that’s why this is confusing me… I’m not trying to sound mean with that last bit btw, I’m just confused

Should say All 4161 Files Successfully Validated after validating the game files

Also please send a link to a log uploaded to https://smapi.io/log

It says there are two files unable to verify, I believe it's the Wizard files but I don't know how to reset my game files.

Update: It verified all files
