nope he has a netgear one.
yeah he can, although he already did
no problem he will.
no problem, thank you for helping at all.
of course!
Question if I get rid of the kid I had with Emily will I still get a new one with Abigail?
@noble glacier Hi! Game support is for bugs and game breaks and such
Ah shit sorry.
hey we just tried that didnt work either, still same error failed to connect.

I'll call for help
@copper hollow heLP
Host and his friends can connect but 1, connect fails all the time. Firewall is disabled and the log says it doesn't even try to connect
and he also can see the farm etc
like it just doesn't want to connect. Tried Hamachi as well and same thing
(XNA + .net have been updated and computer restarted)
Do you have the SMAPI log for the player who can't connect (after the connection fails)?
(Sorry for the delay, just helping some players in #making-mods-general first.)
(oh sorry, didn't know!)
Hmm. I don't see any hint in that log. Can you try it again with Hamachi, and post a screenshot of (a) the game when it shows the connection error, and (b) the Hamachi settings for the player who can't connect?
@vernal frost ^
I'm having an issue with Content Patcher causing an eternal loading screen upon bootup of the game. It freezes and locks up my game and I can't even play. I have my SMAPI log: https://log.smapi.io/93RCbwQM
My friend is playing on Windows with the same mods and it works fine but I'm on Mac so I'm not sure if that's an issue. Content Patcher, Colorful Chests and GeodeInfoMenu are all locking up the game individually.
Try reinstalling Mono to fix that: https://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/.
Okay, thanks. I'll try that now!
@copper hollow Omg that worked. Thank you so much!
Hello, I'm having an issue with the SVE mod with Immersive Farm 2 Remastered. When trying to access new Content areas of the mod such as the Vineyard or Sophia's house the screen will freeze for a second every time you try to access that area and prevent you from entering that zone.
@primal laurel Welcome!
@urban iron Can you ask in #making-mods-general, with a link to your SMAPI log on https://log.smapi.io (see instructions on that page)?
Will do, thank you.
Where do I find the SMAPI log?
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
not log?
Ah, didn't expect that

#making-mods-general please
Oh or
Or not
Are you on a laptop?
Also please update your mods and go through your log to remove or reinstall badly installed mods
There are several mods either not installed or badly installed or need updating, yes. In particular the crash is that SVE's ALL pack is missing (reinstall SVE, there is a wiki for it with an install guide), and that ALL itself is in a subfolder of the extracted zip (the one with lots of numbers after) instead of directly in Mods.
(Because of all the mod issues it's hard to tell what will remain once it's cleaned up.)
OK, now I crash when I hit "OK" after the character customization screen. https://log.smapi.io/jwwpqE2D
Hi guys. My sister plays on pc
Shes young and doesnt wanna go thru all the hardships of farming
Instead, she uses the item spawner glitchshe found on YT to get gold and build whatever she wants
I recenty got a switch and she wants to play SDV in it
But shes windering why she cant do the glitch
I searched online and found out that it was patched out
So my question is
Is there any other glitch/hack/cheat that she can use to uhm sort of play in sandbox mode?
I've given 3 Coconuts to Clint, but nothing so far. I don't know if it's a mod that's causing this bug.
That says ||Gus.|| If you are giving them to Clint, it's the wrong guy
At this point should I just wipe everything and reinstall?
even tho i dont have xnb files why its giving me errors when i play the cutscene of shane
!log @hexed apex
@hexed apex Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
@hexed apex there will probably be more people who can help you in #making-mods-general as well!
Heyho guys,
wanted to play the tardew valley expanded mod and installed everything correctly (i think so).
But when the cutscene with marnie who brings you the dog or cat began, that happened:
!log LΓΌgenbaron Von und Zu Woulves#6102
@azure narwhal Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
i need this log in #making-mods-general please
okay i will try this, thanks
Gorgeous
I made a gate. Can I use it to get thru a fence that I didnt build??????
You can build furnture too?
@slender sphinx Hi, here is game support, for bugs and game crashes. You'll have more answers in #stardew-spoilers with the other players!
Ok!
so yeah I think Pam didn't like the river anymore and moved a little closer to the comunity center
anyone know if this can happen due to some mod?
since I am using a few
actaully before anything let me restart the day
yeah no
anyone know anything about this?
NEVERMIND
restarted the game, everything π now
The last person I saw with this problem only got it while using Karmylla's maps, but it only happened after entering and then exiting the community center once. I was unable to reproduce with their same mod list, but if it happens again we can try to take a look at it in #making-mods-general .
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but after installing Stardew Valley Expanded the magnifying glass shows notes in the form of files like StringsFromMaps.
Thank you! I'm still really bad with forums.
hello, is this the right place to report on bugs?
not really! But we are the place you can go first so we check with you if we can fix them
I'll give you a link if you want to directly report the bug
i mean
there are a couple of bugs using the app while using the invisible joystick+2 buttons controls
(@hushed sand You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
you should report them yeah
we sadly can't help for mobile
we're specialized with PC, mostly. None of us (that I know of) has the mobile version in #vanilla-tech-support
sure thing!
Greetings! I have a persitsing issue with loading save files in this game. I've bought it recently, so it's definetly not an "older" file.
I'll try to describe it as best as I can:
OS: Windows 10
game bought and launched via Steam
Content-BuildID: 3611060
No mods
I can start a new game and play for as long as I want - works perfectly fine. If I try loading a save file the game freezes on loading screen. If I try clicking anywhere on the black screen it turns grey-ish and I get the message "no response" (original in german "Programm reagiert nicht"). My advanced save file (12 ingame days) doesn't load at all (for 45 minutes) but doesn't crash, so I don't get any ErrorLog. Younger saves for testing purpose (not even left the house) sometimes load after 1-2 minutes, sometimes not.
I have followed the Guilde "How to fix your game" in the Steam-Discussion Thread to no avail.
If you can help me figure it out, I'd be deeply grateful!
!installforlog Bene#6878
@hexed apex Try this:
- Install SMAPI: https://smapi.io/.
- Run the game through SMAPI.
- Upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io/.
- Share the log link here.
(You can remove SMAPI later, we're just using it to see what the problem is.)
will do
Alright, if I have done everything right this should be the log:
https://log.smapi.io/d9PwnCSH
(@hexed apex You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
could you load into one of the broken saves, then post a log?
That was the one, that didn't load for 45 minutes.. I could wait longer and see if the log changes, but as I said, it freezes without crashing..
im assuming it would throw up an error if you loaded in
and your log doesnt have any errors at all
yeah i saw that in the trace
alright, how long is it suppose to load? It's not a potato-PC...
not long at all
should take 10 seconds at max, maybe a bit longer if the save is bigger
sdv isnt very taxing, so even if youre on a low end computer youd be fine
(did you try to restart your computer ? Reinstall the game ?)
just to confirm, you've tried verifying file integrity right?
(reinstalling the game is the same in this case)
(true)
I have reinstalled it plenty of times, also the files in %appdata%/roaming
It's loading again right now, still freezing
done., what's next?
try to launch the save?
still freezing. When switching between tasks, the preview of the frozen game shows the interior of my home as if it was loaded but doesn't pop up when I select this task because it's still frozen. Might be helpful
creating a new character:
https://log.smapi.io/bc9rq5Jp
I'll load the new save next
it freezes each time?
yes
can you run your antivirus first
then open task manager and check if anything is running with an unusual % ?
windows defender found nothing (last update today) and nothing unusual in the task manager
I am starting to run out of ideas...

let me go through channel history once again
does the audio still play
when it freezes ?
yes, it does
I can try, although I have tried it before and gave up after 45 minutes. I'll start it again and post if there is a result or not before I go to sleep. Thanks a lot for helping!
of course!
I'll go to bed as well very soon sadly
don't be scared to leave the log here, someone will most likely help
(drew and i have been lurking here as well π )
(lurkers.)

hey pals, im trying to get stardew valley to work on Linux (Debian Jessie) through steam and the game just wont launch, would anyone know any solutuion (i know its a very specific issue)
(do any of you have more ideas tho?)
I've been checking the logs, I'm honestly a little baffled too :/ Crash log might hopefully show something
@plush zodiac Hi and welcome! I am not a linux user at all and I'm going to bed so hopefully someone can help you out!
yeah i was thinking save files couldve been corrupted but they were able to load into the newer ones
Shall we summon mouse?
not a bad idea
which means something happened to Ben_bunchOfNumbers
@median crypt Linux help please~
lol thanks
(switching to mobile!)
Exactly drew. I could try taking a look at the save file, but without some context as to what is causing the crash...
In the meantime, @plush zodiac, what all have you tried? Any troubleshooting steps?
ive been trying for the past 2 days haha
(@plush zodiac You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
Are you getting any specific errors? I'm not familiar with Linux either, but we can try some common steps
try poking around in the steam properties, verify integrity and all that
could have some odd launch options as well which arent letting the game boot
well, my problem specifically is that when i go to launch the game, it says its running then it never opens, then it stops
There's no launch options for Linux though 
Hmm. You have tried reinstalling from scratch?
yeah, i even tried several versions of linux
Try this:
- Install SMAPI: https://smapi.io/.
- Run the game through SMAPI.
- Upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io/.
- Share the log link here.
(You can remove SMAPI later, we're just using it to see what the problem is.)
im still new to linux myself haha
Eeey, there's mouse π
oh linux doesnt have any launch options?
SMAPI log is still good, I was going to ask if you'd tried ./StardewValley to see what the terminal said when it crashed :)
should note that
(like running it directly)
i can try that
(Mac and Linux use a startup script to launch SDV, and SMAPI directly replaces it, so they don't do the launch options, yeah.)
Nope, it's in the wiki. Mac/Linux have no launch options, just Windows
(SMAPI backs it up, though.)
Also uh, try xterm if the log doesn't give anything easy?
when i try the ./StardewValley command in terminal it says the file not found?
it is installed too
Are you in the game folder?
hehe
still new to linux haha
Yeah, sorry, I should have specified. You can also drag the StardewValley file to the terminal and press enter and it should try to run it that way, too.
Sorry its low quality but thats what it says
The mobile version seems spotty when using a controller. I can do almost everything except exit menus and enter through dialogue.
Not sure if the mobile version was designed for controllers or not Nalicko. You could check out this page:
!mobilesupport
This is support from the community, but most of us play on PC. For mobile issues/questions, you may have more luck asking on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/StardewValley/comments/b0syp7/stardew_valley_now_available_on_android/) or the forums (https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/stardew-valley-android-ios-known-issues-and-fixes.153425/) which the mobile developers are monitoring.
Reset your content files Angie
oh okay
Looks like you have some corrupted audio π
how do i do that ?
Did something go wrong with your game? This is the page for you. (This page isn't only for players who use mods!)
Hmm, it's hard to see on phone but I don't see anything obvious. Error logs should be in ~/.config/StardewValley/ErrorLogs , maybe there's more info there? OR with the aforementioned SMAPI log :P
and then how do i start it up with the mods installed ?
Do you want to play Stardew Valley with mods? This guide is for you!
yeah, i even tried several versions of linux That's interesting, are you hopping around on same PC, or were these different machines?
same pc
how would i tell if the mods worked/took effect?
I vote drivers even if it's unrelated, because for me it is always drivers π Not sure if SMAPI will give more info but it will at least be easier to read for experiments if nothing else, so can you follow the steps Minerva already linked above ?
Depends on the mod Angie
@ruby bobcat If you set your launch properties in Steam, a black console window should open when you start SDV , that then launches the game itself.
(and that :D)
Some are visual and easy to tell, some are only active in certain events, etc, and some require buttons to be pressed, it goes on and on
Check the mod description/readme for what ever mod you are trying to use, they are usually great!
(They'll also show as loaded in your SMAPI log as it scrolls through its stuff.)
itβs the sve one
Couple easy ways to check, we advise heading to town and check the area between Clint's and Joja Mart, it should have a small pond now instead of the fenced in area
okidoke
(We can help more in #making-mods-general if it doesn't work :) )
thank you !
[context 29.04.19 22:53 - 23:40] alright, the save file successfully loaded after 6 minutes of frozen screen. I closed the game because I wanted that error log, now it loaded again after ~40 minutes. I have really no idea how to put this..
Did it crash after loading? Or it's just taking forever?
just taking forever
Hmmmm
Does it happen on all saves or just certain ones?
(it was just one, I think?)
all saves. Though it dows take longer in the 12-ingame days save than on completly new ones
Zola and I suspected maybe a corrupted save file...but maybe not
If it happens on all saves including new ones, I dont see how it could be a corrupted save π€
Yeah, exactly. A new save loads fine, but trying to load up an existing one causes huge lag
The 12 day old ones sure
Can you zip up your longest taking save and send it through? I can try to load it up and see what happens on my end. https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Find_your_save_files
It may take a little while, I've got to do my husband chores and get supper done
got to say that the 12-days one is kinda new. I gave up with one that I have created after buying the game. The file, which now loaded after 6/40 minutes is 2 days old
Either of the ones that take a while to load will work. I just want to see what's inside that save file
Thanks. I'll take a look after I finish supper
thanks π
hmm I loaded it up with no issues at all π€
I don't get it.. At least we know it's not the file, that's something π But I'll head to bed now, thank you for support!
Umm I got the last minerals and umm I don't know what is going on my star drop isn't here and they greyed out?
I think you get the stardrop the next day?
Looks like you are missing two
Did you get the achievement?
I'm not really sure, do you have any backups of your save file that you could try rolling back to?
It appears I am missing to Artifacts the Star Fish and the tool thing.
To the beach!
Aha, yes, that might be it. Though I'm still not sure why it's not showing those two minerals on the collections tab 
I too am confused.
I've seen that once before where something was donated but not "found" but only on multiplayer
I'm a spawn in a star fish to make sure I am not crazy broken.
There are 7 empty spaces in a "full" museum so the star fish should complete it
Alright.
You might also want to run the save through https://mouseypounds.github.io/stardew-checkup/ to verify that's what's missing
Alright.
Alright we are good.
I have just gotten 16 Starfish and never donated one.
π
I feel kind of bad I cheated with one items on the collection but it is done.
Eh, you collected plenty of them, just forgot to donate π
Very true.
Hi, I have a problem with multiplayer on pc
(@wooden dune You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
Can I get some help?
I used to be able to invite friends to join my farm or accept their requests to join theirs but now I can't.
The invite buttons are gone and when I accept their invitations it doesn't take me to their farm.
Yes
Yes
Are you playing with mods?
?
Did you ever install SMAPI is the question but I think not since you don't seem to understand the question
Yep, I did not.
And not ser ro invisble?
If it doesn't fix it, you'll sadly have to use Hamachi to play
No idea of what you just said Wing
In any case, this issue is sadly common
Sorry phone keyboard bad keyboard
I'm online
SDV uses peer to peer to play multiplayer
I was never offline
And sometimes it just stops working
Set to invisible on steam=multiplayer doesnt work
Did you restart your computer?
Ye I just switched it on, I'm using discord on my phone.
Well Hamachi it is then, sadly
Just restarted meand havent checked ywt probs
So I'm going to have to buy it again?
Noo
You can use it to connect via IP with your friends, everyone needs to have it
Hamachi is free
Ah
I meant for steam
Yeah but if it stopped working its just steam not them
Since, a friend is on invisible like all the time
Was like, why isnt stardew working :(
Why can't they get this fixed? It seems like this has been happening for years.
We tried to reach out to them
But they mostly give no fuck about anything we tell them
Turned out it was because stardew acts like steams offline if its invisible
But I'm online..
Wing, they said they were online ^^'
Friend also said that :p unsure if theyre meaning steam is connected, or steam specifically ahs the online status
As opposed to away or invisible
It has an online status.. I can change it to offline. But that won't fix it obviously xD
Yeah it wont
Well maybe toggle? Since steam issue?
Wing it's what we do each time
But yeah hamachis reliable
Go back in the channel history, it's what pathos tell people to do
Steam just sucks with their servers apparently
Ive used hamachi for minecraft
I have a problem
Oh wait I just needed to download it n switch it on
I Took all the copper from mines and i dont seem to find any copper
(@severe adder You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
I Took all the copper from mines and i dont seem to find any copper
@severe adder did you wait for the next day to make copper reset?
Also please do not spam in this channel
At which levels are you looking at for copper?
20 to 30
that's probably why
copper is more often found in level 31 to 39
check also your luck on the TV
this doesn't seem like a bug at all but bad luck
guys how do you block hits on mobile
I've done it loads accidentally
but I can't when I try
you might want to ask in #stardew-spoilers as your issue is not a bug or a crash/broken save
@torn ermine i use the invisible joystick and two buttons so i just press A and it block
not sure if that helps
hi my game dont want to start for a problem in C:\Program i have already tried re-installing the game several times but it's not okay what I should do
@fiery shell what do you mean? Can we have a screenshot of an error?
Hallo, I'm new here and semi new to Stardew Vally.
I might have found a typo in the game, is it here where I report this in?
@open frigate on the support forum, let me get you a link
don't forget to state your version (mobile, pc, console, etc)
Stuck? Found a bug? Post details here!
I will make a report on the forum, thank you very much for your support.
of course!
Hello, I just came in here, I wanted to get a question, I have a little problem, when I open the Stardew Valley, there is a logo written "Swift Shader" at the bottom, and it disturbs the dialogues a little
@cloud bane on PC?
Yes
Can you take a screenshot?
It's not stardew valley but your PC, we can have a look to remove it together tho
(@cloud bane You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
Ok
got it
`You need a "hex editor" to do this. Easy to find a free one just google it.
-
Once you run the editor, load up the DLLs (d3d9.dll to be exact, in the game installation folder.), and search for "96 00 00 00 C8 00 00 00" without the quotes.
-
Then, replace the 96 and c8 with 01.
-
You should now have "01 00 00 00 01 00 00 00".
-
Don't touch anything else, just save your file.`
(looks like it is an independent program. it's on github) 
there you go
yeah I googled it as well
what a stupid thing tho to make your logo appear on game windows
Very
still need the photo ??
nope
just follow the thing i sent you
and you're good
it's not sdv but your Swift Shader that you must change
of course
Ah okay, I'm going to install this Hex Editor
I hate to bother, but I did not find the "96 00 00 00 C8 00 00 00"
here but is in italian
(@fiery shell You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
@cloud bane I sadly cannot download your shader thing, so you will have to google it and maybe watch some videos to take care of it
@fiery shell can you open the launch options of stardew valley?
in steam, right click on SDV -> properties -> launch options
delete everything in that
@full knoll I already tried to take seeing tutorials but none worked, so I decided to resort to Discord of the game, but anyway it was worth, I think I will format my pc
@cloud bane or just unistall the shader thing o-o
I already tried to find it but it never appears in the uninstall programs
It replaces one of your graphics drivers apparently, you could try rolling back
I will try to find a program to update my drivers
I think I'll use Drive Booster, I'd already used it once
Anyone can help me with Stardew Valley Expanded Mod? I installed everything needed in same order as in installation guide and then Mod itself with Immersive farm 2 and after that starblue recolor with compatybility files
i have bug like this
@glacial brook #making-mods-general please
type !sve there and click on the FAQ link
your response will be there
!sve
Stardew Valley Expanded (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3753) is a mod which adds a lot of new content and areas to the game. It needs to be installed in a very specific way; see the install guide, FAQs, and common issues at https://github.com/FlashShifter/StardewValleyExpanded/wiki.
in #making-mods-general next time please
you are in game support, for game breaks and bugs, etc
all mod support goes in #making-mods-general !
ok, sorry
(@glacial brook You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
I have a doubt
In mobile how can i remove bait or tackle from fishing rod
this is not a game bug or break... please go ask in #stardew-spoilers
And the copper problwm got fixed when i cleared cache
awesome, I will note this one down
Oh sorry
thank you for telling me how you fixed it!
Why
because people often don't say when we actually fixed their issue or how they did it
so when people come here we struggle a little sometimes
Ohh thats a good strategy
^^
Also got something about selling calculation issue
what do you mean?

That's interesting
Okie but how
you go on the forum, sign in, and post your screenshot with your model
(android, your phone, etc)
Also i discovered a huge while searching for coppper
Thing*
this only happen if you cleared that level Like when you are on lvl 20 and to go to 21 you are not gonna fond any ore but on 22 you can find ore its like that level is like resetted
i think it's not normal? Maybe it's different on mobile
you might want to report that as well then
Back about the freezing issue when loading any save file. Mizzion has proven that those files are not corrupted, so the problem has to be either me or my PC.
I have a seperate Partition for games on my PC, that's also where steam is installed to keep everything nice and tidy and because it worked better back in the days with modded Skyrim.. That means Stardew Valley is in S:/Steam/Steamapps...etc
while the saves remain in C:/"User"/Appdata/Roaming etc
I'm not sure if that causes difficulties.. There is no barrier in means of permissions or anything, but still..
That shouldn't cause issues, I have my Steam library installed on a separate disk. You could try copying the entire game file onto your main disk and seeing if the issue still occurs though
is this where you talk about bugs?
PC
Is it in the vanilla game or a modded version?
which cutscene?
lurks back out to let zola handle it
lmao, bye Min β₯
(you're the vanilla bug expert here, let's be real π )
I... don't know which one it is
completing CC joja route?
is that it?
(aw, no, it's pathos!)
yes
alright I'll have a look
(it's the intro to the CC, maybe?)
can you
go in steam
right click SDV
properties
local files -> verify game integrity
and try to get the cutscene again
ok
I think I might know the problem Zola. @terse badger Did you buy the Joja membership before seeing the cutscene with Lewis unlocking the doors to the Community Center?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BN_vRqp4eFA See about halfway through this video. I remembered seeing that problem before, just needed to confirm

Hey guys, I have this issue where my FPS drops from 60 to 50, and sometimes 45 in a huge lag spike. They last like half a second, but it's annoying and takes away from the smoothness of the game. I've looked online, and I've downloaded the _Commonredist folder, repaired it, and everything. The problem still persists.
Are you playing on a vanilla game or modded?
Come on over to #making-mods-general, we can try to figure it out
This is for vanilla game support
Alright

Hey! The following thing happened. I was hosting a online game on which I played with my sister.
This was a few weeks ago. The last day we played I made a copy of my save and messed around on that copy. No after a few weeks I can host the old saves anymore. Neither the original file nor the copy.
Then I deleted both (which was dumb) and copied over the save from my sisters PC. But that doesn't work either. Whenever I press host the game restarts.
[issue up there was taken care of in #making-mods-general]
so there was an issue on multiplayer: we went to bed and then the game crashed, after getting the gold from the day. and we were at the title sceen unable to select anything. so we started the game over again and now the host cant find the server save.
so the save exists but it isnt showed ingame
My country doesnt even sell it
Already tried @west umbra's advice
(@pure parrot You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
Still
you deleted cache and data?
theres this
On my old phone it works very well, but not on this phone
Is it because the androud pie version?
@west umbra okay brb
no idea man, i dont even have a phone im just googling this stuff lol
Still same
https://www.megebyte.com/your-device-isnt-compatible-with-this-version-on-google-play-store-error/ have you tried all of the solutions listed here? i know youve tried some of them but there might be smth new
Still my friend
i got nothin then, sorry man
back about the freezing issue when loading save files. I just thought, shouldn't loading and saving files face the same problem on my pc? But the game does not freeze when saving when I go to sleep but freeze for a seemingly random amount of time when loading a file. Also, something about how Stardww Valley loads game data must be different than in other games or programs, since those load fine. I mean, the game can't be the problem, otherwise I wouldn't be the only one with, but whatever interferes with Loading Data in Stardew Valley on my PC is unique for this game and if I can figure out what it is, I might find the reason for the freezing issue on my Pc.
what do i have to do with my problem?
Hi everyone, I'll have a look at the channel history and come back to everyone
@quick mulch did you try the following tutorial already ? https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Save_disappeared_or_doesn.27t_load
@hexed apex Hi, what is your antivirus?
windows defender
no malwarebyte installed on your PC either?
no malware. We checked two days ago if I remember correctly π
ah shoot most probably, I take care of a lot of people ><
I'll have a look of what we said and tried before
brb
oh you're the one with the crashing saves!
not crashing actually. Just not loading..
true
and i remember I asked for a log but you said it was sometimes never stopping from loading and nothing in the console either
right
The log only said that it's still loading
yeah...
honestly it might be something to do with your computer but idk what ;-;
do you have all your drivers up to date?
must be my computer, though it's nothing unusual about it.. I've looked into drivers before, but will do it again
sorry I can't help more than that
I asked for help from someone else tho
well, thanks for your effort! If I ever solve this, I'll share it here in case someone has the same problem π
Do you have any antivirus, firewall, or security app besides Windows Defender?
(he is there, the game-support and Modding hero)
only windows defender
Can you temporarily turn off Windows Defender's real-time scanning (see method 1 at https://www.wikihow.com/Turn-Off-Windows-Defender-in-Windows-10), then see if it still happens?
how can i fix this?
yes
then sadly it's steam again being terrible
You will have to use Hamachi to be able to play
i got that when i tried to play mod-free by running stardew from within the folder instead of launching it from steam
dunno if thats ur issue but
turning off the real time protection didn't do it, sadly
:(
Can you...
- open the Event Viewer (through the Windows 10 start menu);
- go to Custom Views > Administrative Events;
- load a save in-game and wait until it finishes loading;
- in the Event Viewer window, click Action > Refresh;
- post a screenshot of the Event Viewer window.
the only thing on my pc that doesn't come with windows naturally and is active (in the task manager) permanently is the cisco anyconnect VPN Client. Aside from Steam in which I run the game.
Will try the event viewer-thing
this is from loading a newly created save file. The advanced ones don't play any background music during freezing, this one does.
Hmm, nothing in the event viewer then.
(I was able to load the save with 12 ingame days yesterday after 6 min of freezing, closed it because I was hoping for a crash log and sucessfully loaded it after 40 minutes again - both with music during freezes. I've played a few more days.Now if I try to load it it's quiet.)
^so I guess it's fruitless to wait
I scrolled down in the event viewer although the new events were on top.
The 'application hang' events might be from when you clicked the window and it showed 'not responding'. They probably won't have any relevant info, but just in case can you click the top one and post a screenshot of the info it shows?
Yeah, don't see anything that'd help; it's just saying it froze, not why.
Can you try this?
- Find your game folder: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Game_folder;
- open
smapi-internal/StardewModdingAPI.config.jsonin a text editor (Notepad is fine); - change the
VerboseLoggingoption to true; - load a save in-game and wait until it finishes loading;
- upload the new log to https://log.smapi.io/ and post the link here.
(request: verboselogging command)
https://log.smapi.io/qN3FqUjr
^the new one, that successfully loads after ~20sec of freezing
19:04:59 TRACE SMAPI Events: button MouseLeft released.
19:05:01 TRACE game gameMode was 'titleScreenGameMode (0)', set to 'loadingMode (6)'.
19:05:01 TRACE SMAPI Game loader synchronising...
19:05:01 TRACE game getLoadEnumerator('test_216405998')
19:05:02 TRACE SMAPI Context: load stage changed to SaveParsed
19:05:03 TRACE SMAPI Context: load stage changed to SaveLoadedBasicInfo
19:05:39 TRACE SMAPI Context: load stage changed to SaveLoadedLocations
19:05:56 TRACE game gameMode was 'loadingMode (6)', set to 'playingGameMode (3)'.
19:05:56 TRACE game getLoadEnumerator() exited, elapsed = '00:00:54.4766532'
So it took roughly one second to read the save file, 36 seconds to load location info, and another 17 seconds for the remaining save info. So it's not an issue with the disk access, the delay is happening after it's already loaded into memory.
@full knoll how about my problem? Any idea?
you're the person with mobile issues yes?
Yap
sadly we don't have more info for you, but
I suggest you go to the link I'll give you bellow, and state your phone version and model

the second link
report the issue, but don't forget to give your phone model and version!!!!!!!!
Okay thanks @full knoll let me try that one first
I'm loading the advanced file right now and it's playing music. For a while now^^
So what does it mean, that the delay occurs after loading? Something with my internal memory?
Seems to be. Not sure why it's taking so long after the file is loaded, since you mentioned it's not a potato PC. π€
Just in case, can you try verifying the game integrity and see if it says any files will be redownloaded? https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files
no download after browsing the files
Do you mean after verifying the files?
yes
Does the same thing happen if you launch Stardew Valley.exe directly in your game folder (so SMAPI isn't running)?
yes, Zola prompted me to install SMAPI so that I can upload the log files! I ve had the freezing problem since I bought the game
Is S:\ a partition on the same physical drive as C:\, or a separate drive?
on the same device
Can you try uninstalling the game and reinstalling it to C:\ temporarily, and see if it still happens?
will try
Hello guys, sorry to interrupt but can someone help me install smapi, I've been trying for an hour now but when i try to run the installer for windows, it does nothing, it looks like it tries to open a window but it closes immediately after:(
@hexed apex Hi, I can help no worries. Welcome to the server!
Thank you! :)
Of course. Did you try to disable your antivirus?
Yes i tried
Well ive removed any traces of smapi on my computer now so i can start from scratch
(@hexed apex You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
alright!
I'll reinstall it and tell you what issues I'm having
Oke:)
I've installed the game in C:\User (Steam remained in S, though) and launched via Steam without SMAPI - still freezing
Okay i reinstalled smapi, my antivirus disabled, i extracted the files with winrar and now when i try to open the windows installer batch file, it does the same thing as before
alright
Is there something I'm doing wrong?
nope you're doing everything correctly
Hmm strange
let's try to launch it via internal
Okay what do i do?
The windows-install.exe ? I'm sorry if i sound like a noob at this, i actually am
Haha thanx
Ok so it opens interner explorer, which is oh so great, since obviously it's the superior way to use the internet. Anws It's asking me jf i want to open or save the file
Which do i choose? I've tried opening and it tries to open a window but it closes immediately
I think so yes
Well it doesn't say exe at the end is there a difference?
i have extensions enabled, you must have clicked the .dat by mistake
there!
to enable them
Aha! Yes
now let's try again, let's double click the .exe one this time
Did that
nothing?
can you screenshot it?
Well I'm texting on my phone and working on the computer, so I'll take a really bad picture of my computer screen instead, hope no one cringes at this
Ok this picture is taking 10 years to get sent for some reason, hold up
Nvm there it is
No worries, thank you:)
@hexed apex Can you exit Steam entirely (right-click the taskbar icon and choose 'exit'), launch Stardew Valley.exe directly, and see if it still happens?
@hexed apex let's try something
Ye I'm here
(pathos, thinking: damn zola is slow)
and restart your computer! who knows
when in doubt turn it on and off
Omg wait i think i did a thing
!!
!!
Ok even tho i had my antivirus disabled, it still messed with the download I'm guessing, so i did the dumbest thing and uninstalled my antivirus and now everything's ok
Ok but now i need my antivirus back oopsies
Thank you regardless, you're awesome!
what antivirus was it?
Something-panda, wow i already forgot it's name
wow
Panda protection?
alright instead
please install something else that is free as well
Kaspersky Free for example is good
but if you have Windows Defender
and don't go on weird websites
you don't need another antivirus
Haha okay
I do have Windows Defender
Ok although i thought we were done could you still help me set it up? I looked at tutorials but i feel like they skipped 50 steps
for SMAPI?
Yes pls
alright
Well it says it installed but where is it?
just double click on the window install batch
the last windows will give you a code
well, a path
something "C:/etcetc" %command%
you need to copy that
Hmmmm
(brb)
It says Game path: E:\steam..e.t.c. is it that?
And where do i use that?
sorry for distracting you:(
No no dw it's my job 
ok umm although moo sent me the instructions i am still struggling a bit
what do i do with the path??
It tells you, in part 2
@hexed apex Not sure what else to try; I have no idea why the delay happens. π¦
alright, thank you very much for trying! Wouldn't be so bad if the time needed would not increase with more ingame days played.. I can't reach the first summer.. Maybe some day π
Let us know if you ever find the cause! It'll help the next person if someone else has the same issue.
ok i think i did everything, now pray for me to install my first ever mod ann
and not ruin everything again*
if i have any issues ill inform you, but thanks a ton for the help!!
oh guess i need to ask here
hello discord friends, i have a few questions about trying to host a multiplayer game from the NA with a friend in the UK, they have a terribly hard time trying to join and stay in the game, is there anything i can do to remedy this?
A friend of mine can't get the game to start up at all. it won't even make error logs. he updated frameworks, directx, verified game cache, redownloaded steam, plugged in headphones, ran as admin and tried starting through the folder. We're fresh out of ideas on what to do or even try at this point. Anyone got pointers?
Stardew won't start up for me, it says "Stardew Valley-Running" then it says "Stardew Valley-Syncing" then it stops
Iβve just completed the mayors shorts quest and when I picked them up they went in my inventory but were still on the floor so I picked them up again and now I have two pairs. I gave one back to Lewis and still have one pair. Is this a bug? Iβm playing on Switch. Has this happened to anyone else?
Item duplication is a common bug with quest items
You can report it here if you like
!officialbug
If you've checked that it's not a mod bug, you can report bugs to the Stardew Valley developers here: https://community.playstarbound.com/forums/stardew-support/. Make sure to do a quick search first, so you don't report something they're already looking into.
Sarah, congrats, you now have something to show at the stardew valley fair
You can put them on signs π
Excellent - Iβm putting them right by the farmhouse
Hello,
I'm not very good with computers so I apologise in advance, but
I started up my game and found that one of my save files is missing, I have both closed and reopened stardew and restarted my computer, but it is still missing. Do any of you know of anything I can do to fix this?
@broken grotto See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Troubleshooting for help with that. Feel free to ask if anything is unclear.
Thank you
is there a way to transfer a multiplayer save from one comp to another while keeping the players to each user
im having an issue where literally no sunflower will harvest with a seed
we had 3 40 flower harvests but there wasnt a single seed and its been giving us seeds the first year
hi i just bought stardew valley to play with my friend and have tried everthing i found on the internet just to play with her and nothing works because when i press join it only shows up lan
Some more information would be helpful. What system are both of you playing on? And trying to play through Steam or GoG? Also, modded or vanilla?
were playing on steam and vannilla
this is the problem and i tried everything to fix it
Hi,
I've beaten prairie king, so, in next day I got a letter from game's developer that said 'you won an arcade' it was a kind of a lucky winner of the draw' for having to beat the game. The latter said also that the machine will be at my house, but till now I've received nothing.
Does anyone know anything about that?
I think the machine should have been included in the mail, so if you didn't collect it from there, it's probably gone.
What is SMAPI?
The thing for mods, on the computer version.
Yes, if you use that, you can use a debug command to give you the item, don't need to install any mods or anything.
Can you provide me some links or tutorials?
Thank you very much
@hexed apex Suggested fixes:
- Remove BJS Capsule Mod, which doesn't seem to be compatible with Linux/Mac (it uses Harmony in a non-crossplatform way).
- Seasonal Leafeon seems to have an invalid
manifest.json. If you changed it, try reinstalling the mod; otherwise I suggest reporting it to the mod author. - You have two copies of Bonster's Fruits and Veggies (in the
[JA] Bonster's Fruit and Veg-3438-1-0-0-1549630856/Bonster Fruit & VegandBonster Fruit & Vegfolders); you should delete one of them. - Make Love With Shane (and possibly Witch's Valley) look like an XNB mod, which replace your game files directly. If you link me to the mod pages, I might be able to suggest a modern alternative.
- Not sure what's going on with Starblue Valley, but maybe try reinstalling it.
- Longevity isn't natively compatible with Linux/Mac, you need to perform some tricks. I'm not sure how off-hand, but you can try asking in the Longevity Discord (there's a link in https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/articles/23).
thank you!!
theres a CP version of Witch's Valley in the posts on the mod section you can try using @hexed apex
Hello I am @vernal frost 's friend the guy who couldn't get himself connect to his world
It is still not working
Also my game is shared by someone else
Is there a way to clear or change the default SDV controller binds?
im pretty sure you go in inventory, then head to settings and scroll down
it won't change the Default binds
only the ones on that one save
I will have a look for you Erus
there doesn't seem to be a way
but we might have a mod for it
So, I tried some more things with my friend who's game just wont launch, almost destroyed his pc by going into system32. we now installed SMAPI to get an errorlog but SMAPI ALSO instantly closes when he starts the installer on his pc
Has he tried white-listing Steam/Stardew Valley and Smapi in his anti-virus program?
He doesnt even use an antivirus program.
what OS does his pc use?
windows 10
(@steady goblet You leveled up to Villager! You can now join voice chat and all public channels. See #445729591533764620 for more info. Keep up the good work!)
told him to try starbound, as its the same developer, that one also works
He can check to see if Windows Defender is running and perhaps blocking stuff
deactivated firewall before
he dropped all the shields for the game at one point or another, it just wont budge
he has tried through the folder as well
has he verified his files?
oh i thought both were chucklefish, my bad
Chucklefish is not a dev!
:3
They just give the money and take it basically
Anyway
I'll go back to bed, good luck to everyone 
he has: verified gamefiles, uninstalled reinstalled, dropped all security, even uninstalled steam itself and reinstalled, installed frameworks to the newest version, opened through folder
May your game be fixed
there are no errorlogs in the folder and smapi installer instantly closes so he cant get those errorlogs either
good night zola
he installed every version he could find from different sites
Can you completly uninstall any anti-virus?
Not window defender of course
But any other one
you can never install one
?
he never installed any antivirus software
Alright
but dont let me keep you awake, get your good nights sleep, im quite certain the problem will persist until tomorrow, thanks for trying

alright so, hes trying to reinstall 4.5.2 but it tells him he already has that one or a newer one
hmmm all i can think of is this: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Nothing_happens_when_you_launch_the_game
Did something go wrong with your game? This is the page for you. (This page isn't only for players who use mods!)
which you seemed to have done
so it wont let him reinstall 4.5.2
@young robin yeah, we've gone above and beyond that one, scowered the internet for a while now, there are some fixes people have tried where you have to swap around system32 folders and data but that seems dicey and we've already tried some of them
uhh can try system restore if you guys want to go that way
weve thought of that but honestly...thats just too much of a hassle
if thats honestly the only solution we got then ill just get a refund and buy him something else for his birthday
at this point weve tried so much that when we start playing and its not the greatest game ever, we'll be disapointed
Did he reinstall Steam already?
yup
(I'm too frustrated for you I won't be able to sleep)
Can you invite your friend here?
It'll be easier
(also sdv is the greatest game ever for me :p)
(else I wouldn't spend my days trying to fix it for other people when I have free time)
true i guess, he'll join the discord in a sec
π
We will have to wait 10min anyway
I'm brainstorming rn
Where is SDV installed?
(Side note since we are waiting, Chucklefish is indeed a developer as well as publisher -- Starbound and Wargroove are theirs, as will be Witchbrook in the year 2050 :P )
heh
Erk
its in D right now but he tried installing it in c already
reading through old posts too
Jesus the computer is just being a bitch basically
welcome to mount shame
the smapi thing is the weirdest thing to me, why wouldnt that program install either?
When it doesn't start through Steam, does anything ever come up at all, or does it do the Running > Syncing > nothing kind of thing?
@copper hollow does the smapi installer always throws an error if it's the frameworks fault?
We could try to uninstall and reinstall it
he tried uninstalling and reinstalling framework but it still gives him the: theres already a newer version. message
done that
Figured
im thinking right now that smapi might not work because he never actually started the game
so maybe if i dropbox him my entire gamefolder
he could start smapi
I mean.
At this point
Why the heck not
Think about deleting it after
On dropbox
Ah, true I guess, it would never have completed first time setup from being run before attempting SMAPI... though I don't think it would just die still. But I don't know.
coughs and makes significant glances towards another channel

The installer will show an error if .NET Framework isn't installed, but it can't check if .NET Framework is corrupted / installed incorrectly.
So it might be that
Apparently the game dies, SMAPI installer dies (don't know if actually related) and have tried a variety of internet fixes some of which looked quite sketch (system32 what).
Do you have a screenshot of the SMAPI installer error?
yup
opens the window then closes right back down
uploading the entire stardew valley folder is gonna take a bit
(Was it extracted? :D Just checking sigh)
if frameworks was corrupted, could we check with another game that uses the same frameworks?
aggressively Google it
@median crypt yes it was extracted
Can you open a PowerShell window, drag the internal/windows-install.exe onto it, hit enter, and post a screenshot of the result?
finally a new idea
(Sorry, I suck at Windows troubleshooting for versions in the last like 8 years, and somehow haven't much made up for it in any other OS either shakes fist)
You're a Linux user
"oh right that's a thing"
(Maybe I should take a class π )
i am a window
thats him
(yay, an error)
oh right...we're german
they are missing an assembly
Yeah, looks like .NET Framework 4.5.2 isn't installed correctly.
I knew it
π I'm so happy we found the issue
soooo...how does he install or fix the framework?
but .Net Framework failed for them 
Microsoft .NET Framework is a Microsoft component used by programs, such as QuickBooks, to integrate with Web applications. Perform the recommended solutions below if a damaged or missing .NET Framework causes errors such as the following: Error 1603 Error 1903 Error 1722 Err...
dunno if that helps
The third one
Not the first one
I do not suggest installing third party
But it's just by bad experience
This one looks better imo
I'm looking Γ little everywhere but I'm not on my computer
I have to go sadly as my fiancΓ©e also needs sleep
wait, that's illegal
