!modpiracy

***We do not condone mod piracy.***

Getting your mod files outside their authorized sites (e.g. Nexus, ModDrop, Naver), asking someone to "download a mod" for you, or distributing mod files to another person without the author's permission are considered mod piracy and are strictly prohibited on the server.

Mod piracy also includes:

• The distribution of mod files that are already hidden/deleted from authorized mod sites or re-uploading mod files on unauthorized platforms.

• The creation of "mod packs" with several other mod files put into one mass file for download and sending the mass file to others or uploading to sites. This excludes Nexus Collections as each mod still gets the downloads, as intended by Nexus.

We want mod authors to get credit for their download and endorsement numbers. **You may, instead, share the link of the mod or share your SMAPI log with another farmer.**

"vpp"

Vanilla Plus Professions is an upcoming professions and talents mod by KediDili.

acronyms

Many popular mods in the modding community are often referred to by their acronyms. Here's a list of common abbreviations: https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/Abbreviations

addnamespace

To add a missing namespace, click on the red type name and a little lightbulb will appear on the left. Click that and accept the suggested `using` statement.

addswitchmods

If you have a modified Nintendo Switch running custom firmware, there are some limited options for you to use mods.

**Option 1:**
1. [Install Ubuntu]https://wiki.switchroot.org/en/Linux/Ubuntu-Install-Guide
2. Get 1.5.4 Stardew Valley via [DepotDownloader]https://github.com/steamre/depotdownloader.
3. Follow the [this guide]https://web.archive.org/web/20200115233340/https://ur.gs/post/stardew-valley.
4. Install SMAPI (version 3.12.8)
5. Run it via `mono StardewModdingAPI`
6. You can use most **1.5.4** mods, but some won't work (such as Custom Music)
**Option 2**
1. Place XNB mods in `sdmc:/atmosphere/contents/0100E65002BB8000/romfs/Content/`, as if this was your game's content folder (as in `.../romfs/Content/Characters/Caroline.xnb`)
2. This limits you to XNB mods and outside of simple retextures will largely break by 1.6. See [here]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Migrate_to_Stardew_Valley_1.6#XNB_impact for details.
**Option 3**
Basically the same as Option 2, but with a mod manager for easier management.
1. Install iridium https://github.com/AnotherPillow/Iridium, instructions in the README.
2. Place your XNB mods in `sdmc:/switch/Iridium/Mods/[MOD NAME]/` as if this folder was the Content folder of the game.
3. Same restrictions and issues as Option 2, but you can turn mods off and on and know what mods are controlling which files.

aremodssafe

Sometimes mods get flagged by overzealous antiviruses. If you're really worried about viruses in mods you can:
- download from Nexus or Moddrop, which check all files for viruses automatically
- preview the file contents on Nexus to see what you're downloading (content packs containing only images and json files are highly unlikely to be viruses)
- view the source code for most C# mods on Github by going to smapi.io/mods and checking the advanced options
- download and compile the source code yourself

assembly

If you get get an error that says: "Could not load file or assembly," "FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.[...]' or one of its dependencies", OR something like "The library '[...].dll' required to execute the application is not found," something is wrong with the core frameworks used by the game.

Common fixes:
- Reset the content files via Steam. Use the !reset command in #governors-mansion for more info.
- Uninstall Stardew Valley, fully delete your game folder, then reinstall it.
- Check to make sure you don't accidentally have two copies of the game.

You may also see an error like this if you installed SMAPI manually by renaming the .bat to a .zip and moving files yourself. Try reinstalling SMAPI using the installer package.

Alternative Textures

[Alternative Textures]https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9246 is a framework mod that provides options to change asset textures with in-game tools.

For an interactive list of texture mods, click [here]https://floogen.github.io/StardewValley/alternative-textures.

To make a content pack for AT, see the author's [in-depth wiki]https://github.com/Floogen/AlternativeTextures/wiki.

autolog

If finding a log is too confusing and you're able to load your save, you can install the In-Game SMAPI Log Uploader to get the log without having to search through the files. Simply hold Left Alt in game and then click the Pufferfish symbol and the log will automatically be uploaded to smapi.io! https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/13979

backup

You can quickly backup your vanilla or modded save files by creating a copy and storing it elsewhere. Your save files can be found using [this guide]( https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Find_your_save_files). If you are modded, SMAPI creates backups of your saves as dated zips in the `save-backups` folder inside your `Stardew Valley` folder. __Don’t delete the Save Backup mod installed by SMAPI, or these automatic backups won't occur.__

chatgptcode

Please stop trying to get ChatGPT to write your C# mods for you, especially if you don't know how to write C#. It won't work without heavy editing, and it wastes everyone's time.

Large language models fundamentally are reguritating something from their input—which is roughly speaking, the written output of humanity up until 2021 or so, for ChatGPT. For specific, niche topics like "is this framework going to do what I want" or "which things does Game1.cs have access to", it probably has no idea! But it's good at detecting that people in the past have....said things about frameworks and written things in C#, so it does its best to assemble words and symbols into a nice order for you. Sometimes it tells you true things, and sometimes it tells you false things, and if you can't detect when, you're in trouble. When you're writing code, this usually produces garbage, because you can't be "sort of similar", you have to be _exactly_ correct or it won't work.

How to maximize children's content in 1 playthrough:

1) Start with the following (adding content for vanilla children stages, from baby to toddler):
-Immersive Family (events for your kids and dialogues for villagers) +
-Immersive Unique Children Talk (your kids will talk about you, your spouse and the villagers)

2) After finishing the events from Immersive Family and/or when you want to turn your children into real npc (have schedule in the town like Jas and Vincent):
- Install The Farmer's Children or Growing Valley (choose one only)
- littleNPCs is required

* Notes: You can install littleNPCs and its content pack mod earlier, but remember to set the AgeWhenKidsAreModified in the LittleNPCs config to be a higher number. Otherwise, the children may be turned into real npc before finishing Immersive Family events, and it will be incompatible then.

consolemodding

Xbox and Playstation consoles cannot run Stardew mods. The Nintendo Switch has very limited, unofficial modding capability in the form of XNB mods only. However, this requires jailbreaking your Switch, something which can only be done on select models and can run the risk of bricking your console.

consolemods

consolesaves

Saves on consoles cannot be transferred to other consoles, PC, or mobile. The consoles don't allow access to them so you can't grab them and move them. Consoles of the same type (xbox > xbox, playstation > playstation, switch > switch) will transfer through cloud saves.

controller

```If your controller is not working for Stardew Valley on steam. Go to the top left of your steam client window, click on "Steam" > "settings" > "controller" > "general controller settings"> Another window will open up and make sure that for whatever controller you are using that the support box is checked. If you are not too sure what controller it is you can check them all and it won't do much! After that the controller provided it's plugged in or connected with bluetooth should pop up in that window and you will be good to go!

You can edit the `StardewModdingAPI.metadata.json` file and set `"Status": "AssumeCompatible"` for the mod (adding a new entry if needed). That will force SMAPI to _try_ to load it, even if it detects incompatibilities. This is very much not recommend though; even if it loads (which it may not), you may get errors, crashes, save corruption, etc.

farmdesign

If you're new to designing, one of the keys is to start small. A full map can be overwhelming, so choose a portion of the map and focus just on that portion. For example, you could make a barn area, and work to make just that area look nice without worrying about the rest of the map. When you're happy with that, you can create a coop area, and so on. If you prefer an overhead tool that lets you see everything at once, the planner tool at https://stardew.info/planner is useful for some as well. Details like pathing, trees, grass, and decor items that can be placed outside (such as seasonal or decorative plants and flowers) can transform the feel of an area. If you're still stuck, consider how you want the area to look thematically: the slime hutch area might have a darker or spookier feel, for example, while a shed can look like a little house or an ordinary storage shed depending on what you surround it with.

firstmods

If this is your first time playing Stardew Valley, we recommend playing the game unmodded (also known as 'vanilla') until you have reached the end of summer in your first year or until you have completed the Community Centre. This will give you a better idea of what you like and dislike about the game, so that you know what sort of changes or additions you want to make, and is particularly recommended if you're interested in installing additional content mods so that you are aware of what content is part of the base game vs part of a mod.

If however you would like mods for accessibility or ease of play reasons, please check out the following recommendations list: https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/Recommendations:_Accessibility_and_Ease_of_Play.

fixfp

If your game is crashing walking near your fish ponds, it's likely you have had a JSON shuffle within your fish ponds. There are two different ways to fix this:
Install Warp Snitch https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9087, fish everything out of your pond, reset the pond, and put a base game fish in your pond, then save. You will lose your fish in your pond, but not your fish ponds.
Type world_clear current fishponds (or world_clear current fishpond ) while on the farm. This will instantly fix the issue - by deleting your fish ponds from your game. You will have to build new ones.

Types of Harmony patches in order of power/safety:
1. **passthrough postfixes** - very safe
2. **passthrough prefixes** - safe but not guaranteed to run, it's good to try catch your code and return true if anything breaks
3. **non-passthrough postfixes **- probably safe, unless you return null unexpectedly; otherwise again, try catch return true
4. **non-passthrough prefixes** - now you have to make sure you also don't pass nulls if the code expects non-null stuff; try catches as above
5. **transpilers** - you can break/achieve almost anything.

legacy

The game has two 'legacy' versions you can use:
* `legacy_1.5.6` is the last version before Stardew Valley 1.6. This is a (probably temporary) branch for players whose mods don't work in 1.6 yet.
* `compatibility` is the latest game update, but using outdated frameworks. This is more compatible with some older systems, but [mods *do not* work in this branch]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#SMAPI_doesn.27t_work_with_the_compatibility_branch.

To switch branch:
* **On Steam:** In your Steam library, right-click Stardew Valley and select Properties... > Betas, and then choose the branch under the dropdown.
* **On GOG:** From the game's page in GOG Galaxy, click the settings icon > Manage installation > Configure... and choose the branch under the Beta channels dropdown.

The `compatibility` branch has the latest game update, but using outdated frameworks. This is more compatible with some older systems, but mods _do not_ work in this branch.

modupdates

Mod updates after 1.6

With SDV 1.6.14, the majority of mods that have been updated for 1.6 should now work without problems. If a mod has been updated after March 19, 2024, then it is likely compatible with 1.6 and some pre-1.6 mods will also work without needing an update - you can test whether it works on your own game without any need to worry about damaging your save file.

If a mod hasn't received an update, especially if its author has confirmed it as broken, please remember to be kind and patient - do not harass any mod authors into making an update for you. Your question about an update may be one of many that the author has received, which can be overwhelming. If the mod is open-source or has free-to-use assets, you can ask around on the [unofficial update forums]https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/unofficial-mod-updates.2096 to see if someone is willing to continue it themselves.

oldmods

In general, you can figure out whether a mod is (most likely) to work with the current version of Stardew Valley based on its update date. This is not a guarantee but is accurate for most mods.
- 2016: Do not install (meant for incredibly early versions of Stardew)
- 2017: Do not install (meant for pre-multiplayer Stardew)
- 2018: Unlikely to work. If a Content Patcher mod, it might work, but in general it is not likely.
- 2019: Content Patcher mods can be tried from here on, but may have some incompatibilities. C# mods will not work.
- 2020: Content Patcher mods should work but may be buggy. C# mods will not work.
- 2021-2023: Content Patcher mods should work but may have some bugs. C# mods mostly will not work.
- 2024+: Should work without issue.

A patch export makes a copy of specific stuff in your content folder so you can see what changes have been applied.
1. Load up a save (with Content Patcher installed)
2. Type ``patch export FILEPATHOFTHING`` in the SMAPI console and hit return
3. Look in your ``patch export`` folder in the game folder for the relevant json file or image
4. If it's a json file, you can share it via smapi.io/json. If it's an image you should just be able to look at it.

pixelart

**Where to Start With SDV-Style Pixel Art**
If you've never done pixel art before, don't stress! It's easy to pick up the basics - the key is to start small, ask for feedback, and incorporate that into your work.

To start, you'll want an art program. See a list of recommended programs in the !software command.

Here's some good beginner tutorials!
http://pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11299&PID=139322
https://medium.com/pixel-grimoire/how-to-start-making-pixel-art-2d1e31a5ceab

To start off, try opening an existing portrait and changing the outfit. Start small: edit a shirt pattern, change a jacket collar, or remove a scarf and draw the clothes underneath. Ask for feedback too! The best way to improve is learning how to identify what's wrong and why, so then you can work out how to fix it.

Here's more good tips from the artist of "Celeste":
General pixel art 1: https://www.patreon.com/posts/pixel-art-1-6971422

Shading: https://www.patreon.com/posts/shading-13869731
Portraits: https://www.patreon.com/posts/portraits-8693396

SDV has a few quirks to remember too:
- Colour limits: Limit the number of shades you use - stick to six including the outline.
- Hue shifts: Rather than making shadows and highlights lighter or darker versions of the base tone, SDV shifts the hue too. Eg. a base orange will have yellow highlights and red shadows. This goes for skintones too!
- Light source: SDV uses a top-right & slightly forward light source - check the vanilla art for reference.
Most importantly, don't hesitate to ask questions and get advice from people. Have fun!

playvanilla

You can still play the vanilla game after having installed SMAPI. There's a few approaches:
- In [your game folder]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Game_folder, run `StardewValley.exe` directly.
- _Or_ if you're playing through Steam or GOG on a Windows device: clear your launch options, then select play from your game client. See the `!launchoptions` command for more info.
- _Or_ change the name of your `Mods` folder to something else. Then launching the game will run SMAPI but with no mods loaded.
- _Or_ set up SMAPI as a custom game in Steam. See the `!modgroups` command for more info.

polyamory

There are multiple mods for marrying multiple people in Stardew Valley. Here's a quick guide:

**PolyamorySweet** is made for 1.6+. Please use this mod if you are playing the standard version of the game.

**Free Love** is made for 1.5.6. If you are on the legacy branch of Stardew, use this mod.

**Multiple Spouses** is an *outdated* mod made for Stardew Valley 1.5.4. DO NOT USE IT.

recountnuts

To fix the "129/130 walnuts" bug, type `/recountnuts` into the chat. This works on both console and PC. On multiplayer farms, the host should enter the command while no farmhands are connected.

redboots

If you are having issues with all of your shoes turning your Stardew character's boots red, your boots internal data has corrupted. Thankfully, this is mostly a benign problem, and can be fixed by spawning new boots and throwing away the old ones. To spawn new boots, type debug fin boots in your console, replacing boots with the exact name of your boots without spaces (e.g. Space Boots become spaceboots).

reload

How do I reload my changes while I'm still in game?

-You cannot reload tokens, that's a forced restart unfortunately
-If you've done any **CHANGES**, then type into SMAPI:
`patch reload YourMod.UniqueID`
-If you've done [i18n DEFAULT.jSON]https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/How_to_make_your_mod_compatible_with_other_languages changes, then type into SMAPI:
`reload_i18n` then
`patch reload YourMod.UniqueID`
-C# Visual Studio has a feature called [Hot Reload]https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/debugger/hot-reload?view=vs-2022
-C# Rider also has [Hot Reload]https://www.jetbrains.com/help/rider/Hot_Reload.html
-Generally working in C# it will be called "Hot Reload" (usage may vary)

removemods

Mods that only change aesthetics do not need special preparation, but when removing large expansions, like Stardew Valley Expanded, or mods that add new items, you should to do a few things:
- Remove all modded fish from fishponds
- Remove items from the mod from chests and inventory
- Cut down trees/crops from the mod
- Make sure no important items are in mod-added locations
- Divorce any spouses from the mod (you can do this via console command)
When you remove the mods, you may end up with error items. You can trash these and they will be gone the next in-game day. If you are removing all mods, play a day and save before playing unmodded.

reshade

Reshade and recolor refer to two separate mod types that both affect the overall look of the game. Recolor mods change the base textures of the game terrain (such as the grass, paths, cliffs, and dirt) before it has loaded, while reshade mods apply a colour and lighting filter over the entire game (including the UI) after it has loaded. Recolors and reshades can be used together, but reshades can only be used on Windows and require a different installation method to most mods. Please make sure to follow the installation instructions carefully if you want to use a reshade mod.

revert

Downgrading to 1.6.8

Follow the below instructions to downgrade to 1.6.8:
1. Open Steam
2. Right-click Stardew Valley in your library
3. Go to Properties
4. Select the "Betas" tab
5. Select "legacy 1.6.8"

Steam will overwrite your game folder with the 1.6.8 version.

Dealing with Corrupted Save Files

__Vanilla__: [Reverting to a previous save file]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Undo_the_last_save is the safest way to restore access to a corrupted save. However, this comes at the cost of one in-game day’s progress.

__Modded__: SMAPI creates backups of your save files as dated zips stored in the `save-backups` folder inside your `Stardew Valley` folder (as long as you didn’t delete the Save Backup mod). Named as the date they were generated, they can be used to roll back a save beyond just the previous day, which could help escape especially persistent save corruption at the cost of in-game progress. Download the zip and follow steps 3 and 4 in [this guide]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Undo_the_last_save.

rsv

Ridgeside Village https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/7286 is a mod which adds a lot of new content to the game (NPCs, a new location, shops, and more).

rtf

Reset Terrain Features https://smapi.io/mods/#Reset_Terrain_Features is a mod that lets you reset, clear, or generate everything that spawns on a map using an in-game menu. That's especially useful when changing maps mid-save, as the debris will otherwise use the old layout (causing things like trees in the water or bushes blocking exits).

servers

On PC Stardew Valley uses GOG servers, https://www.gog.com More info about GOG here. So if these servers go down, then multiplayer on PC will go down in its entirety. Even if you have the Steam version it still uses GOG servers. A good indication that they are down is if you see a spike on the Down Detector site https://downdetector.com/status/gog-com

Solid Foundations https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/12311 is a framework that allows the creation of custom farm buildings and objects, including custom interior maps, material costs and build rules, item production, and animated textures.

startmodding

Making mods can be broadly divided into two categories:
- Content packs are formatted text files, and don't need any programming knowledge. They can add/edit NPCs, maps, new items, shops, and more. To get started, see the [list of framework mods]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Content_pack_frameworks, the [wiki tutorial for Content Patcher]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Content_Patcher, and there might be relevant guides on [the tutorial wiki]https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/Category:Tutorials.
- C# mods use programming code to change fundamental game mechanics. See [getting started with C# modding]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Modder_Guide/Get_Started.

Usually it’s easier to start with making content packs, since you don't need to learn programming.

startuppref

If your game doesn't launch or the resolution is messed up, your `startup_preferences` file might be broken. You can just delete it and the game will recreate a clean version.

To do that:
* On Windows, press `Windows` + `R` to open a 'run' dialogue. Enter `%appdata%/StardewValley` to open the folder, and delete the file there.
* On macOS, go to your desktop. In the menu bar, select _Go -> Go to Folder_ and enter `~/.config/StardewValley`. Delete the file there.
* On Linux, open a terminal and run `rm ~/.config/StardewValley/startup_preferences`.

switchmodding

Modding on the Nintendo Switch is technically possible in a very limited capacity, but it requires jailbreaking your Switch, which is only possible on select models or by physically altering the hardware of your Switch, and can run the risk of bricking your console and/or being banned by Nintendo. Only visual texture and dialogue replacer XNB mods can be installed. Due to these limitations, we do not provide guides on how to mod the Switch and it is up to the individual if they want to take these risks.

tilesheetclimbing

When creating or editing maps in Tiled, one common error is tilesheet climbing, marked by red text containing `"invalid tilesheet path '../../..'`. This is caused by SMAPI not being able to find the tilesheets needed by the map file. To prevent this error, make sure that you have a copy of all necessary tilesheets in the folder containing your WIP tmx file. Copies of vanilla tilesheets can later be deleted, but must be present while working on your map.

If you get this error with a completed map, an easy way to fix it is to open your tmx file in VS Code or a similar text editor, find all of the places with `<image source=`, and remove the filepaths to so that only the tilesheet names remain. For example, if the code says `<image source="Content unpacked/Maps/townInterior_2" width="512" height="64"/>`, change it to just `<image source="townInterior_2" width="512" height="64"/>`.

Follow the instructions (and remember to change map references in the normal jsons afterwards if necessary, like in schedule data!) and your mod will be ready to use in the current version of Content Patcher! https://github.com/AnotherPillow/TMXL2CP

tone

Tone indicators can be placed at the end of a message to indicate your intended tone. You may see them used in chat, and are welcome (but never required) to use them yourself!

Some common tone indicators:
`/gen` or `/g` = genuine
`/j` = joking
`/hj` = half-joking
`/lh` = light-hearted
`/s` = sarcastic
`/srs` = serious

Aliases: tones

trees

Trees require one tile of space in every direction in order to grow. Normal trees can share a tile, but fruit trees cannot.
Once fully grown, you are able to place anything next to them.
(The left side shows the space needed for trees on their own, the right side shows the space needed for trees to be planted near each other.)

troubleshoot

Hey! Can I get you to run through this [troubleshooting guide]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_doesn.27t_launch? If none of the options there work, can you post the error message you get if you open SMAPI using the command line?

twocakes

If you discover that someone has made or is making a mod with a similar concept to yours, don't stress! Our community promotes the idea of "two cakes", where two versions of the same idea can peacefully co-exist. Your mod will have your own unique stamp on it that makes it special.

unpack

Follow [this guide to unpack the game's content files]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files#Unpack_game_files in order to see and explore how the game data is structured.
It's helpful when making your own mods, or just to learn about how the game works!

Files with the extension `.zip`, `.rar`, or `.7z` are archive files, which you can extract to get the actual files inside. For a `.zip` file, just right-click (or long-press on Android) it and choose the option like extract or uncompress. For `.rar` and `.7z`, you need to install third-party software first, like 7-zip https://7-zip.org on Windows (get the x64 version), Keka https://keka.io on macOS, PeaZip https://peazip.github.io on Linux, or ZArchiver https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver on Android.

Note: When downloading keka, click the "download version x.x.x" text below the "Download on the Mac App Store" button for the free version.

updatesmapi

Download the latest version from either the official website https://smapi.io or from NexusMods. Extract the files and run the executable/installer inside.

It will automatically remove the older version.

Visit Mount Vapius https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9600 is an expansion mod that adds a new region in the mountains. Accessible by train, you'll enter the hamlet of Glimsap, with its tight-knit group of villagers, that holds a market twice a week. You'll get to explore new places, fight monsters, get new crops and forage, trade local coins for exclusive goods, and complete tasks to unlock special items, including machines, buildings, and animals.

vortex

**[Vortex]https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/1 isn't recommended for Stardew Valley**.

It's hard to troubleshoot and often causes issues like SMAPI/mods not being installed or updated correctly, files mysteriously disappearing, crashes, etc. Volunteers here often can't help with Vortex issues.

Some options:
- [Install mods directly]https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started (which is easy and safe in Stardew Valley!).
- Or [use Stardrop]https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/10455, a mod manager specifically designed for Stardew Valley.
- Or get help with Vortex in the [Nexus Discord]https://discord.gg/EUEmTYtP or [Vortex support forums]https://forums.nexusmods.com/forum/4306-vortex-support.

(See also the [Nexus App feedback thread]https://discord.com/channels/137344473976799233/1244072693054308362, if you want to help Nexus avoid the same issues in their upcoming replacement for Vortex.)

vsc

When creating content mods, it's useful to have a program that will check the validity of your json for you. We tend to recommend either VSCode https://code.visualstudio.com/download or notepad++ https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads

vscjsonc

How to make VSCode not scream at json comments

In Visual Studio Code, go to File -> Preferences -> Settings, then search for "associations", and in the "Associations" setting, click the Add Item button to add an item with key `*.json` and value `jsonc` (see image).
If you are making a content pack for Content Patcher, you should consider using its json schema so that VSCode can tell you if your patches are valid, you simply have to add
```json
"$schema": "https://smapi.io/schemas/content-patcher.json";
```
at the start of your `content.json` file.
