https://log.smapi.io/de4JcvqF I'm running Mac OS Mojave My game was working perfectly fine until I disabled some mods by moving them out of the 'Mods' folder. Now, content patcher stopped working and the game is still looking for the mods I removed (one was NPC Paul, the other was Romancing Rasmondius). AS of now, the game won't load saves, it stays on 'loading...' forever' What I have done so far: Removed content patcher from the folder and tried to start the game without it redownloaded and extracted content patcher reinstalled Mono restarted the computer Nothing has gotten me past the black 'loading' screen Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have no idea what's wrong.
You cannot remove custom NPCs without crashing the save file. There may be a way to use the debug commands to remove the NPC (format debug killNPC NPCName), otherwise you'll need to save edit to fix it. I recommend stopping by the SDV Discord #modding channel for help!
Thanks for the hint! For anyone else having this problem, here's what I did: 1.) open the save in a pure text program like notepad or text edit (after making a duplicate just in case) 2.) cmd (ctrl) + f search for the NPC's name 3.) carefully highlight everything from the < NPC > tag in front of their name to the ending < /npc > 4.) delete and save
