yeah I have mods installed
I'm playing with friends and I only got the game changing mods
I did not want the visual stuff but I started having issues recently
It's very on and off so I started adding some mods but It doesn't change the out come
I still get stuck in game loading
If it's only visuals why would it be a issue I don't have it
You should always try to have the same mods installed in multiplayer, normally. But I can't say for sure with Stardew Valley. Try synchronizing your mods and see if the crashes disappear.
