Stardew Valley modding on Linux / Steam Deck takes a step with the Nexus Mods app

More Features

• Collections from Nexus Mods are now installed in a read-only state to ensure the collection is as the curator intended it. Cloning and editing collections will be added in future.
• The Collection Download page now includes an Instructions tab with both collection and mod instructions.
• Collections can now be removed from loadout without deleting them from the Library using the menu option in the header.
• The header has been redesigned to be more compact.
• The Settings UI has been updated to match the latest brand guidelines.
• Stardew Valley mods that are packaged without a top-level folder will now install correctly.
• Added more information to the Health Check diagnostics for Stardew Valley.

Technical Changes

• All games except Stardew Valley have been moved behind the "Unsupported Games" flag in Settings. If you were modding Cyberpunk, Baldur's Gate 3 or Mount & Blade II:Bannerlord in a previous release, you will need to enable this option to continue managing your mods.
• The app can now differentiate between a mod installed as part of a collection and the same mod installed directly from the Library.
• When installing collections for Stardew Valley, any unrecognised mods are now installed relative to the "Mods" folder instead of the game folder.
• Conflicting mods within a collection are now installed in an order that respects the rules set by the curator.
• Large numbers are now displayed with comma separation or abbreviations.
• File sizes now only show decimal places above 1GB.
• Edits to mod files are now saved to External Changes instead of merging into the source mod.
• Added a new "Give Feedback" button to the bottom of the main window.
• When two different versions of the same SMAPI mod are installed into the loadout, diagnostics will use the most up to date version to display messages.
• Errors communicating with the SMAPI server will now silently be recorded in the logs rather than showing a pop up.

Bug Fixes

• Mod updates now correctly show the number of mod files with updates rather than the number of new versions between the current and latest releases.
• The left menu now displays the correct name of a collection if the internal manifest and website don't match.
• A Command Prompt window will no longer be open behind the app on Windows.
• The Success Rating for a collection now shows the correct value.
• If a collection has less than 3 votes on the Success Rating, it shows as grey instead of red.
• Collections with no required mods can now be installed.
• Fixed multiple places where the app UI would freeze when making large numbers of changes in quick succession.
• Fixed an issue where the workspace could be broken by a saved page no longer being available.
• Fixed an issue where the SMAPI version and game version comparison diagnostic was not running correctly.

Known Issues

• The sort order for some columns does not work as expected.
• The game version is not checked when adding a collection meaning you can install outdated mods without being warned.
• The table header sorting and collapsible section states are not saved and reset each time the view is loaded.
