    I've run SMAPI before some time ago and started the game up again after the new update. I reinstalled SMAPI and 3 mods with the updates and now when I try to run the game, it starts fine with the menu screen but after it opens the save file the screen goes black. I can hear the game and once I navigate in darkness to the front door, the game exits abruptly. Has anyone else had this dilemma?

                You are using a old version of the sprinkler mod, you need to update, a patched version can be found in the misc mods section in the "Ento Home of abandoned mods" topic.

                  Ok, so I found that and downloaded it and the same error still seems to be happening.

                    You still have the old version in the `2-SMAPISprinklerMod` folder, as long as it remains in the Mods folder the mod will be loaded, even if you change the directory name.

                      I could be reading that log wrong, but it looks as if you've got the Sprinkler mod loading twice.

                        Ok, so I've since deleted all the mods that were in there and the game still starts up black with the music in the background. Like I can visually see the menu screen and after I load the save file it's darkness.

                          I cannot for the life of me figure out where these random mods are located. I just read the log and said three mods loaded. The only one that should be in there is the TrainerMod

                              From the file I posted it said four but after deleting the two I had in there it says 3. But there's nothing in my Mods file now besides the TrainerMod and I try running the game with just that in there and it still says 4 mods

                                You should have one in your roaming folder (Searching for %appdata% should bring you there relevantly), and one where you have the actual game installed in, but I'm assuming you have it in the latter. What else is there is this

                                [10:19:49.651 AM] [ERROR] An error occured in the overridden draw loop: System.MissingFieldException: Field not found: 'StardewValley.Game1.content'.

                                Which is the cause of the screen going black. Make sure it's updated along with everything else, even if you said you did so. If you have to remove the mod to see if it works normally, then it has to be done.

                                Additional info: I saw you have these mods:
                                -Configurable Improved Sprinklers Mod by Maurício Gomes (Speeder) - Version
                                -You have two instances still, remove both and readd the latest version.
                                -LookupAnything by Pathoschild - Version
                                -Trainer mods by Zoryn (Obviously that's fine)

                                  Did you try both Stardew Valley Folders? There is one under Steam and there is another one under %appdata%/roaming/stardewvalley/mods

                                    I'm assuming SDV runs perfectly if you remove the sprinkler mod, correct? Post your log to us without the sprinkler mod in it, and let's see what it says.

                                      Just posting that I have added more info from my post, as you still have duplicates in there. Or specifically:

                                        Yeah, I mentioned above "I could be reading that log wrong, but it looks as if you've got the Sprinkler mod loading twice." So we're likely right: he has the mod in two places. Either that, or something is seriously wrong with his setup. Removing all mods should help narrow it down--assuming one mod remains active in the log. At least, it's a start.
