+Manual install
+--------------------------------
+THIS IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR MOST PLAYERS. See instructions above instead.
+If you really want to install SMAPI manually, here's how.
+
+1. Download the latest version of SMAPI: https://github.com/Pathoschild/SMAPI/releases.
+2. Unzip the .zip file somewhere (not in your game folder).
+3. Copy the files from the "internal/Windows" folder (on Windows) or "internal/Mono" folder (on
+   Linux/Mac) into your game folder. The `StardewModdingAPI.exe` file should be right next to the
+   game's executable.
+4. If you use Steam, see the install guide above to enable achievements and overlay. Otherwise,
+   just run StardewModdingAPI.exe in your game folder to play with mods.
