I've got Terraria up and running on her machine. We'll see if it freezes up.

full knoll
#

I'm just quite worried about that CPU issue. How come a Windows clean install could have mess it up so badly :c

#

nice, perfect!

mighty geyser
#

I did a RAM test previously. I think you had mentioned something about it possibly being a memory leak. Everything came back normal.

tribal nacelle
#

Yeah, we're all volunteers. Mostly modders, if you couldn't tell, since we tend to break the game

mighty geyser
#

lol

tribal nacelle
#

Memory leaks are one cause, yeah. Good to know that's ruled out too

mighty geyser
#

I put her machine into performance mode as well, as far as power save settings go.

full knoll
mighty geyser
#

That was one of the suggestions in the links Minerva provided.

tribal nacelle
#

I went diving on Google last night Zola XD

mighty geyser
#

I tried changing the affinity from CPU 0 to anything else but it didn't seem to care, it still went with CPU 0.

full knoll
#

yeah Min, it's really the only way

#

find as many symptoms and google them

mighty geyser
#

I feel like I'm going to just end up reinstalling Windows. There's only 5 games on her machine so it's not like it's going to be a hassle to get things back.

#

My daughter can play The Sims 3 for hours on end without a single hiccup, other than the normal issues in The Sims.

#

Terraria seems to be running fine so far.

#

We didn't have any problems with Heroes of the Storm.

full knoll
#

so it's not XNA

tribal nacelle
#

I think pathos has an idea of what's going on, since he said the safe mode boot would help narrow things down

full knoll
#

yeah

#

He probably does

mighty geyser
#

🤞

#

lol

tribal nacelle
#

Ah, he's on now. @copper hollow got some more info for you

mighty geyser
#

I see him as idle. still.

tribal nacelle
#

He was just active in another channel

#

He might be catching up on back log

mighty geyser
#

Gotcha.

copper hollow
#

So to recap our new findings:

  • The CPU usage looked pretty normal in the screenshot you posted earlier.
  • It happens in safe mode with no audio engine, so it's probably not audio-related.
  • Memory checks didn't find any issue, so it's probably not RAM-related.
  • It doesn't happen with Terraria, so it's probably not a general XNA Framework issue.
  • It doesn't happen with other games.
mighty geyser
#

That SS I posted is after it freezes up.

#

I can give you one where it's running normally, if you would like.

copper hollow
#

Sure, it'd be good for setting a baseline.

mighty geyser
#

Standby.

#

Reinstalling it. One second.

copper hollow
#

Once that's done, try this:

  1. Cause the crash again. Note the exact time when it happened.
  2. Open the Event Viewer (you can search from the start menu to find it).
  3. On the left side, open Custom Views > Administrative Events.
  4. Post a screenshot of the logged events and the time the crash happened.
mighty geyser
#

The spike in CPU 0 is when it loaded. It settled down into that 20% area.

copper hollow
#

Hmm.

mighty geyser
#

Started a stopwatch and she's playing the game now.

#

Also, when the game freezes, it locks up the whole machine and we have to hard reboot it. So I'll have to go into the event viewer afterwards.

copper hollow
#

That's fine, it's why we want the exact time when it crashes.

#

(That's time of day though, not timer delay.)

mighty geyser
#

k

mighty geyser
#

Still running just fine. 30 minutes on the timer. lol

full knoll
mighty geyser
#

Passed 1 hour.

#

Maybe, we just leave it on all the time and never turn it off when it's working.

#

lol

hexed apex
#

My game keeps crashing, we used to play with mods but i loaded it without mods and it still crashed

#

idk whats happening

full knoll
#

can you load with mods and send a log?

#

!log

tulip islandBOT
#

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

hexed apex
#

thats the thing

#

it doesnt say it crashed

#

it just loads up like normal

#

so

#

???

hidden cairn
#

maybe the log will still have informations

hexed apex
#

ok

mighty geyser
#

Just locked up. 1315 IRL time. almost exactly 2 hours played.

hexed apex
#

how do i find my mod folder on mac again? ;-;

#

nvm found it

mighty geyser
#

There is nothing in the log at 1315. The one before then is 1034 and the one after is 1017.

full knoll
#

@hexed apex can you verify your game integrity in steam please? (right click on SDV in your Library, properties, local files)

mighty geyser
full knoll
#

(we can't see much here Anderson honestly)

mighty geyser
#

Yeah, the camera in Discord is kind of crap. lol

full knoll
#

you're too far from the screen is what I mean

mighty geyser
#

Yeah, it's hard to frame it taking it specifically from Discord. Hang on.

#

If you click it and hit view original you can zoom in. Want me to post them again, taken better?

full knoll
#

it was more for pathos to be easier for him honestly, but no worries if you did your best

#

@copper hollow here are the info you asked for!

mighty geyser
copper hollow
#

Okay, so it doesn't seem like a driver crash or something like that. Can you describe exactly what you were doing and where you were for each crash you remember? It might be something in the game code, so seeing if there's anything in common between them might narrow it down.

mighty geyser
#

There doesn't seem to be anything specific she is doing that causes it to crash. She waters her plants, pets the chickens, makes mayo, forages for stuff, mines, chops down trees, upgrades tools. She literally plays the game and it happens at different times.

copper hollow
#

Nothing at all you can think of that might be a common factor (e.g. it usually crashes shortly after she uses a tool/weapon)?

mighty geyser
#

It's not necessarily in the same areas or doing the same things. Sometimes she's mining, sometimes she's standing in the crops, sometimes she's in the henhouse, sometimes she's walking in front of the museum.

#

All places I can think of her crashing.

#

I just did dxdiag and noticed her build of windows is about 2k behind mine. I'm running some windows updates now for her.

copper hollow
#

While you do that, I'm going to prepare a custom SMAPI build for you to try.

mighty geyser
#

Okay.

#

Her build of windows is 15063, mine is 17134. lol

#

I know updating Windows doesn't ever fix anything, if anything it hurts, but I might as well right?

copper hollow
#

It might; that Window build is a bit over two years old.

full knoll
#

don't forget to reinstal XNA if the game doesn't open after that

#

as a former Windows user, Windows Updates often makes XNA crash or something after an update

#

grumbles

mighty geyser
#

Windoze

#

Wouldn't it be amazing if that fixed it? lol

#

Oh, hey, your Windows is over 2 years old. Let me fix some stuff for you. Ding. Fixed.

full knoll
#

It could be.

copper hollow
#

(Hopefully it does! The next steps are going to involve running custom builds of the game and SMAPI to try tracking down what the code is doing when the crash happens.)

full knoll
#

and then you report to CA

#

and then you make him cry.

mighty geyser
#

I'm not sure if the game is treating it as a crash. It keeps playing, it just runs at 1-4 FPS.

#

But it disconnects me from the internet, it kills my USB mouse and keyboard.

full knoll
#

oh gods

mighty geyser
#

Well, the updates are finally installing.

mighty geyser
#

It's updated, same Windows build as mine now. Let's see what happens.

tribal nacelle
#

🤞🏻

full knoll
mighty geyser
#

Nope. Same thign.

#

thing*

#

Didn't finish a day.

tribal nacelle
#

I think @copper hollow is gonna move onto custom builds then

mighty geyser
#

I wonder why it seems to run fine after a reinstall of the game, 2 hours is fine comparatively. But then it takes a dump in less than an ingame day after the first run.

hexed apex
#

(we figured out why it was crashing, it was the kisukae mod for some reason)

mighty geyser
#

Glad yours is working. lol

copper hollow
mighty geyser
#

I wish I could CAUSE it, it just kind of happens. lol

copper hollow
#

Fixed. 😉

mighty geyser
#

LMAO

tribal nacelle
#

(i really wanna quote that XD)

mighty geyser
#

Also, it's not finding the game automatically so I have to type the whole path. lol

foggy frost
#

Silly me, it wouldn't find the game because it wasn't installed. 😄

#

Should I delete all the other SMAPI stuff before/during reinstall or just let it all be?

copper hollow
#

You can leave it, it'll automatically clean up any older versions.

foggy frost
#

Perfect.

#

Installed. I'll let her have at it.

mighty geyser
#

Crashed. I'll get the log as soon as the machine reboots.

copper hollow
#

(Heading out, but I'll take a look when I get back.)

foggy frost
#

There you go.

#

Whew, good thing she's not typing passwords or anything in SDV. lol

tribal nacelle
#

Animal query menu is the last thing I see in the log, at 1551

foggy frost
#

A chicken got close to her character and it was opening and closing the animal menu over and over and over. The rest of the game looked like it was running fine.

tribal nacelle
#

Did it generate a crash log or just the smapi-latest?

foggy frost
#

I'd say the "crash" happened around 15:50:49

tribal nacelle
#

That CPU time spike?

foggy frost
#

Yeah.

#

It didn't take any inputs from the mouse or keyboard after that point. The crash disconnects the wireless USB.

#

So when it crashes, she loses network and USB peripheral. Her headset keeps working though, which is interesting.

tribal nacelle
#

I see some other spikes back further in the log, but eh, we'll wait for Pathos. And it just generated the SMAPI-latest, yeah? No smapi-crash?

foggy frost
#

Correct. No crash log.

#

There's a huge spike of CPU time, up to 22 as the inventory closes. That's when the crash hits.

tribal nacelle
#

That was harvesting something in the coop?

foggy frost
#

She isn't great with gates. She opened the gate, stood in the gate and closed it. It caused the gate to break off. She picked it up and as she went to put it back, crash.

tribal nacelle
#

Very weird

foggy frost
#

Interestingly enough, the game looked like it kept running fine. The chickens were walking around like normal, not all jumpy and jittery like they were lagging.

tribal nacelle
#

But the pc itself locked up

mighty geyser
#

the keyboard and mouse stopped working

#

Good news!

#

It's not just SDV. I was playing Saints Row 4 and it did the same thing. Killed the USB ports. I assume it discoed the network too. Same thing happened as in SDV.

#

I'm going to reinstall windows and see what happens from there.

tribal nacelle
#

Any chance that computer suffered a power surge?

mighty geyser
#

It's on the same circuit as mine, so probably not.

I can't seem to get the map to update and apply the proper map with the SVE mod

hey everyone, idk if you remember me from last week, but i was away on holiday so i couldnt post a screenshot of my save files. im back now, and this is what it looks like:

full knoll
#

@autumn basin no idea what was the issue without going back in channel history, but these are not your saves files!

#

Your screenshot shows a mod. I can guide you to find your ACTUAL save files, and your backups as well if you need

autumn basin
#

oh, i'm sorry. i'm pretty new to this kind of stuff, and it said 'save files" so i just figured haha. if you wouldn't mind, could you?

full knoll
#

of course!

autumn basin
#

thank you so much ☺

full knoll
#

First step, you need to hit your Windows key (on your keyboard) and at the same time R

autumn basin
#

ok-

full knoll
#

it will open a small window on the bottom left called "RUN"

#

in Run, type %appdata%

#

and press enter on your keyboard or "open" in the window (iirc)

autumn basin
#

k

full knoll
#

It opened a folder. In that, you are going to scroll and look for Stardew Valley

autumn basin
#

ok, i found it

full knoll
#

Your saves are in the Saves folder!

autumn basin
#

its not there. just the other save that i have...

full knoll
#

then you might have lost that save you were looking for forever

#

What was your issue?

autumn basin
#

well, i was just playing, and i went to bed, and my game crashed. wheni logged back on, it was gone.

full knoll
#

Oh dear

#

Do you have Steam Cloud enabled?

autumn basin
#

i don't know. i dont think so...?

full knoll
#

good, don't get that

autumn basin
#

ok

full knoll
#

It is sadly known to have issues with Stardew Valley with disapearing saves and such

#

it shouldn't be checked, like for me!

autumn basin
#

oh no...

#

it was checked...

tribal nacelle
#

(I think we were trying to check for smapi backed up saves too Zola)

rocky pagoda
#

Save backup mod should have saved some backups though, in the save-backups folder in the game folder.

full knoll
#

oh!

autumn basin
#

i don't even know why it was...

full knoll
#

it's alright

#

uncheck that

autumn basin
#

ok

full knoll
#

we're gonna get your backups!

autumn basin
#

oh, ok.

full knoll
#

You remember where your mods are?

autumn basin
#

yeah

full knoll
#

It's in StardewValley/Mods

#

We need you to go in StardewValley

#

the one right before Mods

#

Here you have a folder called Save Backups or something of the like

autumn basin
#

ok, i think i found it

full knoll
#

is there your old save file here?

#

(I think they should be zip files.)

#

(they aren't, at least for me on linux! my bad)

rocky pagoda
#

thoinking what are they? They are zip files on Windows.

full knoll
#

it's just folders for me

#

like in appdata

#

folder with date and hour -> my saves folders -> the content of them

rocky pagoda
#

Ah

autumn basin
#

i think so...

#

but when i click on it, it opens up stardew valley, but my save still isn't there

rocky pagoda
#

Screenshot of this folder?

autumn basin
rocky pagoda
#

That's the same folder you had before... Not the right one.

autumn basin
#

well, i cant seem to find the right one...

rocky pagoda
#

click on that

#

Should take you to the main game folder

autumn basin
#

ok

rocky pagoda
#

Then make a screenshot of what's there

autumn basin
rocky pagoda
#

That "backup" folder is something you've made?

autumn basin
#

yeah, its for my mods?

#

but thats not what im clicking on

rocky pagoda
#

Yeah... There should be a "save-backups" folder in the game folder, but there isn't, so I don't know what happened.

autumn basin
#

😰

#

in the "mods" folder, theres a file that says "savebackup".

rocky pagoda
#

That's the mod itself, which you've looked at before.

autumn basin
#

ah, ok.

#

do you think this problem is fixable?

tribal nacelle
#

If your save backup never created any, then unfortunately I think your save might be gone 🙁

rocky pagoda
#

!log

tulip islandBOT
#

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

rocky pagoda
#

Don't need to run the game or anything, just upload whatever your latest log is.

autumn basin
#

wait, i only see one file there, and its not one of the two mentioned on the link you sent me..?

rocky pagoda
#

Try that one then.

autumn basin
full knoll
#

looks like you never ran SMAPI

autumn basin
#

i didnt?

full knoll
#

how do you launch the game?

rocky pagoda
#

Yeah, that's... weird, if you have a load of mods.

autumn basin
#

i only have one mod, and its a texture one.

full knoll
#

does it replace game files (also called XNB mod) or is it in the Mods folder?

autumn basin
#

it replaces game files

full knoll
#

these are very outdated mods

#

we do not recommend them

autumn basin
#

oh...

full knoll
#

but for now the issue is that you never ran SMAPI

#

how do you launch the game?

autumn basin
#

i open steam, click on "games" go to stardew valley and it launches.

#

if thats what you were asking

full knoll
#

yeah sounds like you didn't set your launch option correctly

#

can you reinstall SMAPI, making SURE to follow ALL the steps please?

#

Be very careful when you read the smapi install window

#

especially the last one

autumn basin
#

ok, im 99% sure i installed it correctly

full knoll
#

did you set your launch option properly?

autumn basin
#

yeah

full knoll
#

perfect!

#

now if you launch the game

#

a black window will appear first

#

and then the game

autumn basin
#

ok

#

ok, it launched..

Bueno, vengo a decir mi problema tanto en mi idioma como en Inglés ( Aunque será una traducción literal de Google :(( )
Cuando llevo unas cien horas en una partida y ésta estoy avanzada Windows decide cerrarme el juego y la partida se pierde, no es la primera vez que me pasa
¿Sabeis cómo solucionarlo? :((
///
Well, I come to say my problem in both my language and English ( Although it will be a literal Google translation :(( )
When I have been in a game for about one hundred hours and I am advanced Windows decides to close the game and the game is lost, it is not the first time that happens to me
Do you know how to fix it? :((

tribal nacelle
#

Hello! Let's get some more information first. Are you playing modded or vanilla? And I'm guessing on PC, are you using Windows? Oh wait, I do see Windows, good.

¡Hola! Vamos a obtener más información primero. ¿Estás jugando modded o vainilla? Y estoy adivinando en la PC, ¿estás usando Windows? Oh, espera, veo Windows, bien.

dusky pumice
#

Nunca juego con Mods, así que es Vanilla
Y pues sí, estoy jugando en pc, por si sale otra duda; el juego es comprado, no pirata

I never play with Mods, so it's Vanilla
And yes, I am playing on PC, in case there is another question; the game is bought, not a pirate

tribal nacelle
#

Okay, can you do something for me? Let's install SMAPI to see what's causing the crash. It will be the fastest way I think.

Try this:

  1. Install SMAPI: https://smapi.io/.
  2. Run the game through SMAPI.
  3. Upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io/.
  4. Share the log link here.

(You can remove SMAPI later, we're just using it to see what the problem is.)

Está bien, ¿puedes hacer algo por mí? Instalemos SMAPI para ver qué está causando el bloqueo. Será la forma más rápida que pienso.

Prueba esto:

  1. Instale SMAPI: https://smapi.io/.
  2. Ejecutar el juego a través de SMAPI.
  3. Cargue su registro SMAPI en https://log.smapi.io/.
  4. Comparte el enlace de registro aquí.

(Puede eliminar SMAPI más tarde, solo lo estamos usando para ver cuál es el problema).

dusky pumice
#

Instalé Smapi pero al abrirlo y querer instalarlo en Windows presiono una tecla y de ahí no pasa nada

tribal nacelle
#

It won't install? Or when you try to open the game, it doesn't open SMAPI?

¿No se instalará? ¿O cuando intentas abrir el juego, no se abre SMAPI?

dusky pumice
#

Quiero decir que acá cuando selecciono ese archivo para instalarlo sale una ventana donde tengo que pulsar una tecla aleatoria para continuar, pero al hacerlo no aparece nada

tribal nacelle
#

You need to unzip the file first! Right click on the folder it comes in and choose Extract or similar.

Necesitas descomprimir el archivo primero! Haga clic derecho en la carpeta en la que viene y elija Extraer o similar.

opal coyote
#

@dusky pumice hola! me dijeron que necesitas ayuda 😄

dusky pumice
#

@opal coyote gracias, pero ya me está ayudando Minerva <333

opal coyote
#

ella me aviso jajaj

dusky pumice
#

@tribal nacelle Está bien..
Ya abría el juego con Smapi, ¿Ahora qué debo poner en esa página exactamente?

#

Ooh :o

opal coyote
#

Usaste 7zip o Winrar para descomprimir el archivo zip ya?

tribal nacelle
#

I don't speak a lot of Spanish, Ria is a native speaker! And I need to leave soon actually 💜

No hablo mucho español, ¡Ria es hablante nativa! Y necesito irme pronto en realidad: purple_heart:

opal coyote
#

(you've been acing your translations min SDVpufferthumbsup )

tribal nacelle
#

(google translate to the rescue XD)

#

(I did Latin in school, so I can tell if it looks right, but my grammar is awful )

dusky pumice
#

Usé Winrar, no conozco 7zip

#

well thanks minerva <3

opal coyote
#

sisi, da lo mismo por suerte. Bien, ahora simplemente haces lo qui hiciste antes, de hacer click en el archivo que dice windows

dusky pumice
#

Sí, ya hice todo eso y el juego ya está abierto con Smapi
¿Qué es lo que exactamente tengo que copiar y pegar en esa página?

opal coyote
#

me mostras un screenshot?

#

asi veo en que parte estas

dusky pumice
#

Está bien
Por cierto, dije que no uso mods, tengo instalados algunos pero no los uso

opal coyote
#

ahh, mods de smapi o .xnbs?

#

y si smapi abrio correctamente y no ves nada rojo en la ventana esa entonces me parece que ya esta todo bien y deberias poder jugar?

#

a menos que necesites ayuda instalando mods o algo

dusky pumice
#

Pues sí veo letras en rojo en esa ventana

#

Espera que tomo captura de ello

opal coyote
dusky pumice
#

Esto es lo que sale en rojo, supongo que no serán compatibles o estarán desactualizados, pero idk

opal coyote
#

OOF

#

Algunos no son compatibles y otros simplemente no son mods de smapi aparentemente

#

Va a ser mas facil si usamos el link ese que mande recien

dusky pumice
#

Pero, ¿cómo lo pongo allá? :o

opal coyote
#

abri una ventana del explorador de windows y pone %appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs

dusky pumice
#

¿Lo de ' windows y r'?

opal coyote
#

meh, yo nunca lo hago asi jajaj

#

pero vemos

dusky pumice
opal coyote
#

yay

#

a ver

#

si haces click en todos esos links te podes bajar las versiones mas nuevas, y ahi deberia andar todo bien. cuando te quieras bajar nuevos mods podes ir a: https://mods.smapi.io/ y fijarte de que sean compatibles con la version mas nueva del juego

#

el error amarillo te va a seguir apareciendo y no es nada grave, avisa que cuando salga smapi 3.0 esos mods no van a andar mas

dusky pumice
#

¿Y con eso el juego dejará de cerrarse por Windows y por ende dejaré de perder mi progreso en la partida?

opal coyote
#

(mentira, me olvide que todo lo de la lista en rojo deberias borralo tambien)

#

hmm, la verdad no se a que se debe ese error pero arreglar esto no va a romper eso mas de lo que esta jaja

dusky pumice
#

Está bien, gracias por todo <333

opal coyote
#

Una cosa que deberias hacer es reinstallar el juego si seguis teniendo problemas!

#

haceme un ping si te sigue pasando y investigamos un poco mas, dale?

#

y de nada!

dusky pumice
#

Lo haré, sí <33
Gracias de nuevo

dreamy glacier
#

Is anyone else having lagging issues with the game. I'm on PC and everything is fine until I select my farm to load it and them... severe lag.

full knoll
#

@dreamy glacier do you play with SMAPI?

dreamy glacier
#

Yes - I've got mods installed. But it was working fine most the morning and all mods are up to date.

full knoll
#

I will still need a log please

#

!log

tulip islandBOT
#

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

full knoll
#

also, if your farm has a lot of debris, or if you use SVE, it might be the issue

dreamy glacier
#

Here is the log and the debris makes sense cause I just switched from winter to spring

#

and i can see a lot of debris - but its lagging so bad I can't fix it.

#

I don't have SVE (yet. its on my list to try out later)

tribal nacelle
full knoll
#

oh yeah sorry

wind wyvern

i edited my save file

#

and then i messed up

#

but i kept a backup of it

full knoll
#

good!

wind wyvern
#

i just didn't know you also had to back up the savegameinfo

full knoll
#

oh you don't!

wind wyvern
#

oh wait, you don't have to?

full knoll
#

take one from another save file

#

load your game

wind wyvern
#

i keep crashing though

#

i'm not sure why

full knoll
#

with a savegameinfo ?

wind wyvern
#

yup

#

do you want to see my files?

full knoll
#

did you edit the inside of that file?

boreal cipher
wind wyvern
#

i didn't do it manually

#

i used an editor

full knoll
#

ah.

#

Yeah.

wind wyvern
#

it always worked

#

and then it stopped

full knoll
#

we don't recommend it

wind wyvern
#

ooh

full knoll
#

err

#

just make a new save file, like in game

#

and steal the savegameinfo from the fresh save

wind wyvern
#

okay ill try that

#

i thought they had to be exactly the same

full knoll
#

nah

#

as long as they have the good numbers in the save name etc

wind wyvern
#

ooh okay

#

at least its just one save.... even if it IS the save i've spent over 200 hours on...................................

copper hollow
#

Save Anywhere can break or corrupt your save state, so I wouldn't recommend it in most cases. Does the save work if you remove it temporarily?

silk panther
#

it does, but it still crashes when i go to bed, unfortunately

copper hollow
#

The issue is an error in the schedule files. The mods editing schedules are Summer Hours, Immersive Characters - Shane, Shane's New Job, More Personality for Jas, and Befriend Marlon; you could try removing those to get past the day, then put them back afterwards.

silk panther
#

ooh, thank you so so much!! i'll give that a shot <3
(extra thanks bc i know my logs are always a Mess ™ )

No worries, we're here to help. You can ask in #making-mods-general and one of the players or modders will answer. (If you don't get an answer, feel free to ping me there and I'll help when I'm online.)

Hi everyone,
I don't really know where to ask this, hoping somebody can point me in the right direction.
I am interested in translating the game into Finnish. Does anyone have any experience with translations? Is there any way to get a script of all the dialogue, item descriptions etc.? Should I contact ConcernedApe directly?
Any help would be appreciated. :3

rocky pagoda
#

@zinc barn If you unpack all the game files, the translations will be split across many different files. https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Editing_XNB_files#Unpack_game_files, e.g. the item names and descriptions in English are in Data/ObjectInformation, and the German ones are in Data/ObjectInformation.de-DE... I would choose one non-English language and replace all of the stuff in that language you see with Finnish, possibly using the English version of the file for reference.

zinc barn
#

@rocky pagoda Thank you! Do you know about translating the speech bubbles that sometimes appear above a character's head, i.e. editing actual in-game art?

rocky pagoda
#

Those bubbles are text in the files... There are some language-specific image files with text you may want to translate, e.g. the signs on the saloon. You'll probably want to use Content Patcher to get your changes back into the game, and you could make overlays for those changes, rather than editing the images directly, which should make your changes more compatible with other mods.

rain lotus
#

While hosting a multiplayer save, my game crashed between nights, and now I can't host that save any more. I have checked my save files and the file is still there, what steps do I take to be able to host the file again?

rocky pagoda
#

Can you load it in single player?

rain lotus
#

Nope

rocky pagoda
#

Hmm... Do you know where to find your save files?

rain lotus
#

In AppData/Roaming/StardewValley/Saves right?

rocky pagoda
#

Yeah

rain lotus
#

Ok, I followed the steps on https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Troubleshooting , but when I load the game it reverts the changes I made.

The game saves progress when the in-game day ends, i.e., when the farmer goes to bed, collapses from exhaustion, or collapses at 2am. All progress during a day is lost if the player quits the game without ending the day.

rocky pagoda
#

Which steps?

rain lotus
#

If the files are still there, here are some common fixes (try one at a time):

If some of the files have _STARDEWVALLEYSAVETMP in the name, remove that from their name and reload the game.
If you recently renamed or created the folder (e.g. to restore a backup), make sure the folder name exactly matches the file that looks like YourName_0123456789.
Try undoing the last save.
rocky pagoda
#

Ok... hmm

rain lotus
#

and I followed the undoing the last save steps as well

rocky pagoda
#

Hmm... Make a backup of the whole Saves folder.

rain lotus
#

ok done

rocky pagoda
#

Try disabling the steam cloud sync for Stardew... Do you know where that is?

rain lotus
#

in it's steam properties right?

rocky pagoda
#

Yup

rain lotus
#

ok disabled

rocky pagoda
#

Try renaming the save files again and see if it works this time

rain lotus
#

cool it's there now

#

thanks

#

😄

rocky pagoda
#

You can probably enable the sync again, while the game is running, and it'll hopefully keep the changes.

rain lotus
#

thanks Moo

/flops into the chat/ morning all! my game is, sadly, still broken
its just this save, but i cant seem to get it to work even when i use an older save file :?
https://log.smapi.io/CNa1UgMv

rocky pagoda
#

I think the easiest way to work out what is going on there would be to zip your whole mod folder, and send me that in DM, along with a zip of your saves... But move all the custommusic packs out of your mod folder before doing that.

silk panther
#

o7

#

rar ok? or do u just want .zip

#

ALSO im sorry i forgot to clarify!! it will open, but then crashes when i go to bed that night

rocky pagoda
#

Rar is fine

rocky pagoda
#

SDVpufferthink well, with your mods and your save, I get some other errors you don't seem to get, but... sleeping seems fine.

#

Are you sure that was the right save?

#

#

yup!! absolutely sure

#

thats super weird???

Do you have any XNB file replacement mods installed too?

silk panther
#

possibly? i think i got rid of all of them but im not 100% sure

copper hollow
#

I'm getting a repeating error about sprite fonts, but I can still reproduce your actual error so that's fine.

#

Hey Pathos, Minerva and Cola, I really appreciate all the trouble you guys went through to help us out. Sorry it turned out to be a wild goose chase. I reinstalled windows and it seems to be working fine. We haven't put a lot of hours into it but so far so good. If it ends up happening again I'll probably just get a new processor and GPU instead of the APU.

rocky pagoda
#

Eh, I'm already looking..

silk panther
#

i think the only xnb mod i might still have edits npc gift tastes

copper hollow
#

@mighty geyser Glad that fixed it (so far)!

#

Take care, thanks again.

copper hollow
#

@rocky pagoda Oh, sorry I didn't notice you were already looking into leilacrystal's issue. I'll wait to see what you find then!

rocky pagoda
#

I think I've found the cause...

#

@silk panther ^

silk panther
#

!!!!!!!!!! omg

#

thank you so so much!! gonna go try it now~

#

IT WORKED THANK U SO SO MUCH!!

rocky pagoda
#

I'm not sure what exactly is going on with those maps, I guess you merged the bathhouse hot springs with the gender neutrality or something, as the changes from that mod don't really seem to be there... Anyway, the doors to the locker rooms were like "Bathhouse_MensLocker" when they should have been like "BathHouse_MensLocker", and uh that was enough to confuse Alex and break the universe SDVpuffersweats

silk panther
#

jeez

#

yeah i was trying to merge them together bc i love the aesthetic of the hot springs but really wanted to be able to play a gender neutral chara and not be restricted by which side

#

but i dont rly know what im doing with maps so i was just kinda winging it

You need to redo the launch options after verifying. If you have more issues after fixing that, please come up #making-mods-general

I started playing Stardew Valley on Android on 1.31 and the music doesn't seem to work? It's just the background noise of birds chirping and even during the night or on the beach it stays the same. Help?

foggy thorn
#

Have you tried starting a new game

plucky moat
#

Yes I have

#

I've tried reinstalling the app, making a new save file, starting a new day, closing the app and restarting but nothing has worked

full knoll
#

@plucky moat please clear the cache of your game and then of your phone, restart your phone, and try again

plucky moat
#

@full knoll juts tried that but it didn't work :/

full knoll
#

Let me have a look at our Android bug spreadsheet!

#

@plucky moat can you also clear the cache of Google play store please?

plucky moat
#

@full knoll tried that as well but no luck

full knoll
#

Hm

#

@main heart any other idea?

grand plume
#

Sounds like Google didn't download the .obb file for the game. (Which holds all music for the game)

plucky moat
#

I've tried reinstalling the app but I'll give it another try

full knoll
#

SDVpufferthink gosh i always forget we have a mobile modding dev

#

sorry man

#

sorry, I've missed all of this, what's happening?

#

oh, audio. Oki.
This is usually a weird and annoying one.
you definitely have the sound in game turned up and the sound on your phone turned up (sorry for the dumb annoying question)

I think it mighta been something with steam? Everything opened up like normal after shutting the computer down for the night lol

autumn basin
#

Hey, I’m having a problem with my game. Whenever I load it up, it goes to the black loading screen and won’t let me play. I’ve tried making another save and the problem is still happening.

main heart
#

@autumn basin are you on PC?

full knoll
#

@autumn basin you told me your game yesterday launched, did anything happen?

#

(did you make sure your launch options are set correctly? If you are unsure, copy paste them here)

grand plume
#

@plucky moat It should download the .obb file when you first run the app (not when installing from Google Play). Are you connected to the internet when starting the game?

plucky moat
#

@grand plume ah I solved the issue there wasn't enough storage on my phone so I cleared it out and reinstalled it and that seemed to do the trick

#

But thank you all for the help :)

grand plume
#

Ah! The mobile devs should have a check for that! Not sure why they don't. (hint hint wink wink @main heart )

#

(They do have the method in there but not when downloading the .obb)

autumn basin
#

Yes, I’m on pc. I’m 99% sure my launch options are set correctly.

main heart
#

(added troubleshoot to bug list, letting devs know about the 'fix', hopefully we can figure that one out 👍 )

full knoll
#

@autumn basin can you copy paste them here then?

#

once I checked, i'll ask you for a log, since now you have SMAPI

autumn basin
#

Of course-

#

also, im pretty sure nothing happened the other day

rocky pagoda
#

SDVpufferthink have you tried verifying your game files yet?

autumn basin
#

how do i do that?

rocky pagoda
#

Right-click Stardew in the list in Steam, Properties, Local Files tab, Verify integrity of game files...

autumn basin
#

ok, it said "nine files failed to validate and will be reaquired"

rocky pagoda
#

Ah, good

autumn basin
#

ok, i tried it again and it said it was successful-

rocky pagoda
#

Ok, and if you start the game now?

autumn basin
#

oh my gosh, thank you so much! its working now! SDVpufferheart SDVemoteheart

rocky pagoda

Yay 🎉

mental nebula
#

On mobile harvesting berries on the forest farm requires an axe but it breaks the bush is it a bug?

rocky pagoda
#

Requires an axe? Are you sure?

tribal nacelle
#

It shouldn't SDVpufferthink

mental nebula
#

On mobile

#

I’ve been looking on Reddit and YouTube and other people had problems with harvesting berries too

median crypt
#

I think it's because mobile version is trying to help choose the tool you might want to use, not because an axe is required. Maybe try equipping something else?

mental nebula
#

The bushes outside the farm I can harvest fine without any tool except inside my own

median crypt
#

Yeah, but the forest farm bushes are choppable, so it's like "aha, you must want to chop this here bush!" and gives you an axe :P

mental nebula
#

Is there a way to plant more bush?

median crypt
#

Not that I know of :(

mental nebula
#

I wish they’d fix it

median crypt
#

Have you tried equipping a different tool before harvesting?

mental nebula
#

Yes

#

Wait maybe the pick would work Nope it doesn’t work

I'm trying to get it installed on the app but it cannot detect it.

#

Does anyone by chance know if there’s a way to transfer a save to another device? (Idk if this is the right chat for it or if it goes in #stardew-spoilers) I got a new phone today and wanted to continue the save I started

tribal nacelle
#

You'll have to find your save files and copy them from the old phone onto the new one. The save files are in the same place as the errors logs, so follow the instructions on the link below to find them

#

!log

#

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

#

Thank you guys so so much!

#

Welcome!

#

Wait one sec

#

I have a related question

tribal nacelle
#

Sure 😃

serene axle
#

Oh wait. Hold on sorry I should read through everything more my bad

abstract fossil
#

I tried disabling all mods and using the stock .exe and it still doesn't work. Any ideas?

tribal nacelle
serene axle
#

Okay now I have a question on it

#

So I transferred the game from my old phone to my new phone no problem, when I try to open the save though it asks if I’d like to continue where I left off and it doesn’t matter if I hit the check or X, it kicks me back to the main screen. Should I try to retransfer?

tribal nacelle
#

That I'm not sure about. Lemme see if @grand plume knows, he's our mobile expert 😄

serene axle
#

Cool! Thank you!

grand plume
#

What device?

#

@serene axle

serene axle
#

IPhone 8 now

#

Used to be 5c, transferred through a windows laptop

grand plume
#

Okay, did you copy the entire folder that contains all the saves?

serene axle
#

(Sorry this is long I’ve never done it before) I saved the folder from my 5c to my computer and then dragged it into the folder from the 8 and it popped up as if it would work

grand plume
#

If you have a file that says BACKUP_SAVE, you might have to delete that.

#

For it not to say that message anymore

serene axle
#

Okay. I’ll see if I do

serene axle
#

Rock on, it didn’t copy to my computer st all so it was like a ghost file almost

#

Oh! I found the backup save file let’s see if it works now

#

That didn’t work.. now it just goes back to the main screen if I try to open it

#

Ack sorry for all the block messages, I tried dragging each individual file over from it’s folder and it didn’t appear until I added the backup folder, but when I added the backup folder it kept going to main menu

serene axle
#

Oh bro. Wack I figured it out somehow thank you for all the help tonight (I wanted to clarify the problem is solved)

#

My friend who has joined my server before cant see my server on the list anymore. Not sure if this is related but when I go to the multiplayer settings in the options menu the Show Invite Code and Invite Friends buttons are not there. Anyone know whats wrong?

tribal nacelle
#

Are you both launching via Steam and in online mode? Also check to make sure your firewall/antivirus is off or has SDV whitelisted

safe shore
#

I am on online mode, and connected to the friends network. I have my antivirus disabled but will try and disable windows firewall too.

#

Disabled both antivirus and its still not working

#

Okay, both of you try this then

#

!reinstalldeps

safe shore
#

Will do, thanks

#

Still not working, any other ideas?

tribal nacelle
#

One sec, lemme see what else is on the troubleshooting list

#

Dumb question, but you are choosing the co-op option on the main menu and not Load, yes?

safe shore
#

Yes

tribal nacelle
#

Does your "Join LAN" option show up?

safe shore
#

Yeah

tribal nacelle
#

Even in vanilla, the files can corrupt some times

safe shore
#

We have both done this already

tribal nacelle
#

Hmm, okay. Both playing vanilla, no mods?

safe shore
#

We have smapi installed and mods in the mods folder but we are using vanilla

tribal nacelle
#

So not launching with SMAPI then? Okay

safe shore
#

Yeah

tribal nacelle
safe shore
#

Have tried both of those

#

Sounds like you were looking at the same steam thread I had been

tribal nacelle
#

Multiple ones XD Our normal vanilla troubleshooter isn't on right now, but I know most of the tips she gives. The last resort option if all else fails is using Hamachi, but you said you guys were able to play together before?

safe shore
#

Yeah

#

Also, if it comes to that, I have port forwarded so is there an alternative to using hamachi?

tribal nacelle
#

I'm not sure

safe shore
#

Okay, will look into it on my own

tribal nacelle
#

I'll keep looking around for a bit. Lemme also ping @full knoll and see if she has any more ideas

safe shore
#

Okay, thanks

tribal nacelle
#

Another thing noted is special characters in the username can cause issues sometimes SDVPufferThink

safe shore
#

Neither of us are using any special characters

tribal nacelle
safe shore
#

I have tried launching both from the exe and steam. As for the launch options, the launch options box is empty.

tribal nacelle
#

I do know that the non-LAN stuff only works through Steam/GoG usually. Both of you reset launch options and made sure the box was empty?

safe shore
#

Just asked him, neither of us have anything in the box

full knoll
#

can i ask for a TLDR?

#

ah, MP issues

#

does using Hamachi works?

#

@safe shore

safe shore
#

Sorry, wasnt lookng at discord

full knoll
#

no worries! I was busy as well

safe shore
#

Idk if hamachi works, have used it with other games before and it worked.

full knoll
#

try that

#

sometimes steam just acts like that

safe shore
#

Yeah

full knoll
#

we have no fix for this issue but to fake using LAN

safe shore
#

Okay. Btw I asked Minerva already, do you know of an alternative to Hamachi if you are port forwarded?

full knoll
#

(well, some fixes are reinstalling XNA + .NET framework, and verifying the game integrity)

#

you can port forward yourself!

#

there are a lot of tutorials online

safe shore
#

By that I meant I am port forwarded

full knoll
#

oh!

safe shore
#

And if there was a way of someone connecting to me through that without using Hamachi

full knoll
#

Sadly I have no idea. I know little of how port forwaring works

#

hmm

#

did you check here?

safe shore
#

No, this might be usefull though. Thanks for the help.

full knoll
#

sure thing!

#

if you need anything ping me, i'll turn up the volume of discord this time

safe shore
#

Will do, thanks.

hi, i try to open my game and this happened

#

Someone please help my friend ellen ❤

#

my game is up todate according to steam but everytime i open the game it show white window and then it would crash immediately

#

this is mygam folder

hidden cairn
#

You can first try to verifying your files on steam

#

If this doesn't solve the issue you'll have to wait for someone else (i don't have access to my computer at the moment)

hexed apex
#

i did validate it

#

and i have been installing this for the third times lol

#

:(

#

i didnt play this game even since the harddisk broken

distant terrace
#

Umm i found a bug that i chose the cat and if i say yes the cat dissapeares then the person with the cat comes back 3 days later and so on.

hidden cairn
#

@hexed apex a next step is usually to try to install smapi then providing a log

#

!installforlog

tulip islandBOT
#

Try this:

  1. Install SMAPI: https://smapi.io/.
  2. Run the game through SMAPI.
  3. Upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io/.
  4. Share the log link here.

(You can remove SMAPI later, we're just using it to see what the problem is.)

hexed apex
#

now what do i do?

hidden cairn
#

You follow next step : running the game with smapi (should be in game folder)

hexed apex
#

and now it loaded... ._,

#

using steam shortcut wont load

hidden cairn
#

Well it's curious.. someone may be help to solve this but at least the game itself is working

#

@hexed apex your launch options are missing a " at the very beginning

Also for the full-screen, it's the same way as the normal game, load a save, and change the resolution to full-screen. If it doesn't work, do this :

You could also clear the cache of your game by pressing + on SDV

The bug I found is when you are riding the horse and I went exactly to the quarry's wagon and I did it quickly (run to the wagon and go immediately to the mine) the horse teleported me to a black stage with nothing visible (try with others destinations and only happens with quarry towards mine) the solution I found was to use the totems

I post in stardew suport forums

That didn't work either

tribal nacelle
#

Hmm. Lemme see if our main support person is around. @full knoll ?

full knoll
#

I KNEW IT

#

I was lurking

tribal nacelle
#

💜

#

I tried the usual suspects XD

full knoll
#

I can see that

#

The connecting issue seems to be a router thing

#

Can you restart your router and have your friend do the same?

fallow adder
#

ok i'll do that, but I think that's only my problem, cause my friend can invite me using the invite code, but i can't join

full knoll
#

Interesting

#

Try that and we will see

fallow adder
#

Nope, that didn't work

full knoll
#

OK!

#

So you can join your friend but your friend can't join you

fallow adder
#

No, he can see his invite code, but when I try to join using it, it just says "connecting...".

full knoll
#

alright

#

can you try to host a game please?

fallow adder
#

ok

#

I am able to host a game, but I can't invite

full knoll
#

now that's even more interesting

Try this:

  1. Install SMAPI: https://smapi.io/.
  2. Run the game through SMAPI.
  3. Upload your SMAPI log to https://log.smapi.io/.
  4. Share the log link here.

(You can remove SMAPI later, we're just using it to see what the problem is.)

full knoll
#

step 2 is: make the "connecting..." message appear

@fallow adder Can you try on a new save?

That's so weird SDVpufferthink

rocky pagoda
#

I tried but nothing changed Did they do so too?

full knoll
#

Looks like the issue is on their side anyway Moo

#

if you can't even see the Invite code

#

there is something going on

rocky pagoda
#

Oh, yeah, hmm.

full knoll
#

I'm gonna say something that's gonna hurt

#

but can you reinstall Steam?

fallow adder
#

I can

full knoll
#

(i'm sorry for all the games you'll have to download again)

rocky pagoda
#

Err... Rename your existing Steam folder, reinstall, if that doesn't cure it, delete new one and rename old one back?

#

But I'd be very surprised if reinstalling made any difference.

full knoll
#

I prefer trying the "easy" stuff first

#

but i'd have liked a clean reinstall actually Moo 😦

Ok, so i'll reinstall Steam

How do you completely remove SVE from your game? I deleted all of it from the mods folder, I'm guessing I overwrote a few files when installing it?

tribal nacelle

#

I got stuck at the world_bushreset part. When I launch the game it opens the SMAPI console alongside the game as usual but world_bushreset isn't a known command to my console. Is there something else I need to install to change that?

tribal nacelle
#

Can you try to run it without Steam, directly from the exe?

stoic whale
#

so guys

#

if i delete stardew will smapi will be deleted too

#

i tried uninstalling the usb drivers and restarting and now it doesn't detect it at all

limpid flax

Huh I dont know

@green stratus I changed the user password in the bios because I just use a pin on windows for ease of access and forgot my password. I was trying to get into windows safe mode to see if that would work. I am now in normal windows. I have no idea how that worked

But I dont mind

Hi I need help

#

I dont know how to work around pulse audio on linux, whenever i connect an hdmi device, i have to change the sound setting for the particular application i am using to hdmi output in pulse audio gui

#

and whenever i disconnect the hdmi and start using any other application with headphones, i have to change the output for EVERY application manually even if i didnt use it while connected to hdmi

#

SO, I tried playing stardew on this laptop, and I was getting sounds 2 days ago

#

#

(i will send a screenshot my bad, please wait)

#

I click on the button next to stardew to change, and pulse audio does show alternate audio options

#

but i cant switch to any of them

(sorry cant take a screenshot after clicking on the button, system doesnt allow it)

#

Is anyone who is familiar with linux help me get stardew audio back 😦

@fluid laurel this is not a question for #vanilla-tech-support which is the channel for technical help with your game, like crashes, bugs, etc.
Please next time, for gameplay questions, ask in #stardew-spoilers.
On this note, you cannot make her divorce, nor marry her.

do you use smapi ?

yep

smapi have multiple back up saves so you may find one fitting your needs

fresh basin

ooh cool
would the instructions for that be on the wiki? or on the smapi website?

i don't remember 😄

it's in stardew valley folder, in save-backups

Are you playing with mods?

no, no mods involved, I just launched it from steam is all

Alright, close the game, then right click on it in steam, select properties, click local files at the top, and then verify game integrity

hexed apex
#

Ill check

#

They validated successfully

sinful sparrow
#

And if you launch the game again does it still look like that?

lemme try

it happens on occasian normally

Hmmm, I'm not sure then

Hey, So i havent played SDV for a few weeks and when i went to load it, steam said it was missing an executable. I did verify file integruity and it said it was fine, tried uninstalling/reinstalling both, same problem, what else can i try? ive also added it to my virus protection exception list so that wont block.

#

i feel like we should add a modded-game-support channel, so that modding can be talking about actually making mods, and so that it's clearer to people that this channel is for vanilla only

hidden cairn
#

Sheila (PC) try looking at the launch option maybe ?

#

i know some people have wrong launch option (but i don't remember if it was the exact same issue than yours)

full knoll
#

we actually can say it as many times as we want people don't read #445729663885639680 or channel desriptions 😅

#

but feel free to DM bouncer if you have any good other idea.

silk panther
#

i mean true, ppl dont read things
but i still think it might help to add a separate channel since modding gets busy sometimes since it covers so two very broad topics
i dunno if its worth dropping a line to bouncer if im the only one who feels that way tho lol

full knoll
#

we already renamed this channel to game-support (it was only support before) to make it clearer but it doesn't help. I just gave up honestly. but modding should stay 1 channel

#

let's get on topic again, though

silk panther
#

yes yes sorry

full knoll
#

@hexed apex Lumina didn't ping you, but did you remove any launch option you had, if you previously had SMAPI installed?
