What happens when you try to launch the game? Does the window open and then crash? Does it return to start after you click a save? Does it show 'running' in Steam for a few moments, but not open any window?
That's a pretty common issue. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Nothing_happens_when_you_launch_the_game for some fixes you can try.
Hard to say. Something might have changed your .NET Framework installation, something on your computer changed, etc.
You need the version linked from that page: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-framework/net452.
(The "runtime" version.)
I think I encountered a bug in this game.
I talked to the goblin for the first time while having Void Mayonaise in my hands. Since it was the first time talking to him, I didn't give the mayonaise right away. I then gave him the mayo, and walked into the Witch's Hut.
I couldn't pick up the Magic Ink, likely because I somehow didn't get the Goblin Problem quest
I had a problem when I was going to play with my friend in a co-op, I just did not have invitation codes, I tried installing visual studio redist 2013 and restarting the computer, none of this helped. I also reinstalled the game several times.

This is not what I need, I have problems only with the lack of buttons for receiving and entering codes, at least I need to fix this problem first. And as I understand it, this tutorial is for playing with mods, but I play without them.
Although it is listed in the modding section, the troubleshooting steps apply to any situation where the invite button isn't showing
Ok then try to check the points.
Hey all! I set up a server with Always On Server and have a friend who keeps getting this error when he tries to log in as his farmer: https://smapi.io/log/dd21328d27654ac593950dc81ed8a68c
If I try to connect as him I get the same error
If we delete his cabin and create a new farmer, he's good while we play. But if he leaves and tries to come back it gives him the error again
The log is enough; no need for a screenshot. The host log might be useful too though
The error is thrown by JSON Assets for what it is worth
The host log doesn't show anything
I've got verbose logging on, but I don't see anything about the other players trying to connect
Are there other farmhands as well?
He was logged in fine yesterday around 4PM, other people were playing just fine, then he tried logging in again around 8PM and started getting the error
yeah, others are logged in just fine
two others
Is this the error that's fixed by that build of JA space linked a few times in here?
JA space?
Space is the dev of JSON assets (JA)
ah ok
It's an error that plagues JA a lot. If there is a beta update, I haven't seen it but it is worth a try
I found the file but I don't know how to link a discord post on mobile 
Is the post
found it
let me give that a try
I still get a weird error about honey
[Json Assets] Failed in LoadDisplayName_Prefix for #340 Wild Honey:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at JsonAssets.Overrides.ObjectPatches.LoadDisplayName_Prefix(Object __instance, String& __result) in G:\StardewValley\Mods_1.4\JsonAssets\Overrides\ObjectPatches.cs:line 82
but that gets him logged in
No idea what's up with the honey, but it's an improvement!
yep!
Thanks!
why would it happen for one player and none of the others?
even when I log in as him on my pc
hmm okay
(for reference, next time head over to #making-mods-general for issues like this!)
questions about modded games are in #making-mods-general pls 🙂
Oh okay thank you, I'll post it here
how does one update smappi
Just download the newest version from https://smapi.io and run the installer
ok
Anyone having problem getting roe from sturgeons in the fish pond? I've had 3 sturgeon in my pond for a full season now and zero roe been produced. I'm on switch btw
well with 3 fish, that's about a 20% chance of roe per day, but it would be pretty unlucky to go an entire month without any.
Check the reddit topic (link incoming) and add a post about it if it hasn't been mentioned.

Hello here, i've purchase the game but it won't launch
Can you check this guide here? It's for both modded and vanilla players: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Nothing_happens_when_you_launch_the_game
is anyone having major lag and glitches in multiplayer
can anyone tell me what this circled feature is supposed to do? because i've tested it and nothing's ever changed
Doesn't make smaller/bigger images?
i think it changes the resolution of the screenshot
What were you expecting? It's in the screenshot section :)
it was supposed to zoom in on your character owo
For that, you could just use the normal F12 screenshot?
I have a question does that auto animal product collecter have a higher chance of collecting higher grade products?
Not that I know of
That's what your animals are producing, which is based on happiness
The grabber just makes it so you don't have to manually milk them
Anyone have a slow'd down speed when running / not pressing shift, no foods slowing them down?
There are a few different reasons this can come up - the most common is not having a cabin built for them, or both players not launching the game through Steam/Galaxy. You guys can go through this list and see if anything helps!

@small jay What platform/game version are you on? Any mods? I'm not sure what you mean exactly though, is it something that just started?
@tribal nacelle already done that
Ok so Im not sure why but the multiplayer feature in my game doesn't appear to work. I dont even have the option to invite a friend to my game after i host a multiplayer game and i dont have the option to enter someones invite code either. It only lets me use an IP to join but that doesn't appear to work either. Ive tried to reinstall the game and i even want as far as refunding it on steam and buying it again but to no avail.
Please help
i tried all the wiki steps to no avail :/
What platform?
steam
You're running the game from steam?
Tried rebooting?
many times lol
Hmm... Has it never worked?
well
not really
the main part im confused about is like
why i dont even have an option to use someones invite code
it only lets me join via ip
but like
that doesnt work either
Yeah that's what happens when it can't connect... How long have you had the game?
Tried verifying game files in Steam?
ive had the game since the 15th but not played it much because of this
and i have verified the files but steam says it's all good
What do you see when you go to https://auth.gog.com/ ?
Ok, good... I guess you don't have any mods?
Does the Steam overlay work while you're in game?
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.)
You can try that... May just help, but if not, the log may show something.
@merry grove any error messages? If not, you may need to also install smapi so we can see if there's any errors that the game is throwing
@magic gyro I guess you did the launch options part of the installation?
i did indeed
From your screenshot, it looks like you're online for the friend list thing... Not set as invisible there? Is your Steam profile public?
it should be public
and yes i am online
not set to invisible
profile is linked to my discord profile
I cant put Catfish Roe into the preserve Jar for some reason
Im using a lot of mods so I can imagine it has something to do with one of them
-> #making-mods-general then
Hi all.
I think I just experienced a bug on the switch.
It happened at the mermaid show (I'm in year 1). I was fumbling around and joking with my husband..." See, you can't stop the time anymore"... I hit the plus button to open the menue to show that the time is still running saying "this goes off my fishing time" and the moment the mermaid show went to full screen it froze and the music stopped... But the game kept running also the time was still marching towards midnight .
I managed to leave the room by finding the door (screen was still full screen at the show above that so had to find the door blind) but music and sound was off in general.
Could go to the room again but nothing happened
I also wasn't able to interact with the shells (but I didn't find the note yet).
I wasn't keen enough to go to bed and save the game after that... Imagine the sound could be lost permanently haha.
So I just shut the game down.
This is in switch, version up to date.
Now I wonder should I try again and not touch any buttons until the show is over or just.... Avoid it?

Go ahead and report that one :)
Thx will do. Since it's on switch I'm quite positive it's not from a mod 😋
Exactly XD and you need to be able to click in that area for a hidden task, so it should be looked into
I've been skimming the issue, have you looked into port forwarding? Sometimes that's our only alternative when we can't get the invite codes to work
port forwarding?
Guys I'm on Xbox, all of a sudden I can't access the mill inventory, I have demolished and rebuilt, moved it, slept multiple times, hard closed the game, restarted my Xbox and I still cannot access the inventory 😩
---Exactly XD and you need to be able to click in that area for a hidden task, so it should be looked into----
I'm not sure if it should be click able before I found the note for it. I know it exists since this isn't my first playthrough, just started new on the new map.
I noticed I also can't get the treasure at the train area yet. I can use my hoe at the spot but it doesn't produce anything. Again.. Didn't find that note yet, too.
I believe the mermaid show can be done before you have the note, but not the diggable treasures
I would confirm that but I just replayed the day and found the note under a rock before going back into the show. Everything happened as it was supposed to happen but I didn't even dare to try opening the menu or even moving while the show was on. (imagine my terrified farmer waiting for the show to freeze again, not even keen enough to breathe, after a really full day of doing and organizing stuff... I really didn't want to do it a third time).
Was able to interact after that... But of course this time I found the note before.
So it's solved for me for the moment... Still shouldn't have happened before.
ok quick question
has anyone here port forwarded for steam? I need to ask a quick question about the start and end port section
24642 UDP
does this just go in the end port?
also
are these not the ones used for the steam version?
asking because paranoid loll
Cross play is currently only supported between the PC versions (Windows <-> Mac, GOG <-> Steam) - we don't know if or when crossplay will be supported between consoles unfortunately
i have a question, in my 400+ plus hours and multiple saves... i have never finished the introductions quest... i meet everyone but it always gets stuck at 27/28 how do i fix this??
that is a strange issue. usually when that happens people eventually find the last person. try running one of those saves through https://mouseypounds.github.io/stardew-checkup/ and check the social summary
ok i ran through the one im currently working on, and it says i havent met linus... tho i gave him a gift like 3-4 days ago (in-game)
no?? thought it did ok
nope, it does not
thats probably the issue
indeed
thanks
Ok I'm playing on Switch and the game keeps crashing when I go to skull cavern. It had never happened before, but then it did it one time out of the blue, and now it keeps happening every time I go back. It only happens in skull cavern though
Can you trying clear the cache on your switch?
I could try, but I don't know how to do that.
Okay let's see if that works
You can also power cycle your switch - turn it completely off, not just into sleep mode, wait 30 seconds, and turn it back on
@magic gyro Just 24642 in both start and end should work.
oh ok thanks
Does anyone know how to unfreeze the switch when the screen is stuck on picking a profession perk? My cursor isnt even visible. Really dont want to close and restart
...good question. Somebody in #stardew-spoilers might know, this is more for bugs and game problems :)
ok thanks
I completed all the points from the wiki and my problem was not solved. I also installed checked the SMAPI log and the only clue is "Galaxy auth failure: FAILURE_REASON_UNDEFINED".
Does anyone else has the glitch in which the brick tiles turn to wood tiles? Just wanna know if it fixes itself somehow someday or if it can only be fixed with a new patch
@rigid pawn Are you playing with mods (or have you ever)? not seeing brick paths could be the result of an outdated mod
(If you're on Switch, this is a known issue and should be fixed in a future patch!)
I don’t use mods, I play on Switch, thank you tho! I had my answer
Any help on how to adjust the button controls on a Bluetooth 8bitDo game pad?
I'm on Spring 18 and I haven't yet seen any mixed seeds or fiber. I understand not seeing mixed seeds, but seeing no fiber by now seems odd. Is this within normal parameters?
I play with mods, but I don't think any of my mods are affecting this. (Here's my current lineup: https://smapi.io/log/cc798116bc8842b9b18a4a1386459b45 )
Nevermind; it was a modding issue! 
ah yes, of course haha
guys, i got a classic SV problem "No suitable graphics card found." "Could not find a Driect3D device thatsupports the XNA Framework HiDef profile"
anyone get "cured" from this? SV was run well on my old laptop with intel i3 and intel HD graphics 3000
but i can't run it on my new laptop. Specs:
AMD A9 with R5 integrated graphics
4gb ram
i already trying updating new graphics driver, installing XNA 4.0, restarting, it doesn't work at all
I'm not really familiar with AMD these days, but assuming that meets the game's minimum requirements you could take a look at the various suggestions here https://appuals.com/fix-stardew-valley-no-suitable-graphics-card-found/ !
Does latest SVE works on Android (which is still SV 1.3)? Any special steps to install it?
@orchid dagger in case you are still here? Did you try to play other games on your new laptop?
@weary merlin yes, i play many other games in my new laptop like dirt rally, csgo, even pes 2020 demo run on this machine
Still figure it out why this can be happened
@median crypt already did except plugging out the battery because it planted inside
Maybe a dumb suggestion, but have you tried re-installing sv yet?
Is your laptop new-new or just the first time you tried sv since you've had it (but used it for a while for other things?) because it seems that this error occurred more often after a windows update (assuming you have a windows laptop) that had been fixed later... Maybe check if your windows is up to date?
I also have integrated AMD graphics (not sure atm which version, but it's quite old) on my pc and I can play sv without problems
@weary merlin yea my though is also caused by update. Thanks btw!
Hope you'll be able to play soon!
Why is my joycon stick constantly moving to the right??
I'm not touching it
It started doing this a few days ago and it's making stardew and BOTW impossible to play
Probably not a SV support question then? :P
I didn't know where else to ask
@keen harbor fair. Google might be more helpful in this case.
or contacting Nintendo even

i have a fresh install on a friends machine that isnt working. he may have installed c# on visual studio. ...
it just flashes a window than exits out
we have tried the xna 4.0 redis install that didnt fix the issue. i have reinstalled admin and ran from a zip folder. i have even tried windows compatiblity mode
is there a verbose or launcher options that will output logs

@tribal nacelle ty
running it under smapi fixed the issue
Awesome. Likely your launch options were messed up or something then. Feel free to leave smapi installed, it will log any issues if they happen, but otherwise won't interfere
I found a glitch or bug where if I rotate wood chair, it turns into seed maker
I dunno if this is a vanilla bug or happening because of mods
Standard troubleshooting would be to run the game without mods and get a new chair from the catalogue to see if you can reproduce
Could someone help me with the mods? I installed newest Version of Smapi but I'm confused and I don't know what I have to do, What do I have to replace, what do I have to put in. Would be awsome if someone could help me
If you run the game once with the new SMAPI installed, upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page for how to do it!) and share the link in #making-mods-general , we can take a look and show you what the log says needs to be updated and such !
That’s a very peculiar bug, Zaph
Depending on where you live, you can send in your joycon and Nintendo should repair or replace it, I think for free

hello how to update smapi from 2.11 to 3.0?
Download the new version of smapi, then open it and run the installer (it will automatically find and overwrite old files)
i tried 😦
but it dosent work like that
nothing happens
also when i open the 3.0 instaler it says 1 instal 2 uninstal
And what happens when you press 1?
it says succesflly unistaled
but the 2,11 version still is here
can i uninstal sampi in other way?
Hmm, it sounds like SMAPI might be finding the wrong location to uninstall from. Can you come over to #making-mods-general channel?

If my friend is hosting a co-op game and I leave and come back, my run speed is sooo slow. Until we sleep. Anyone else seen this?
It seems like it's playing the running animation, but walking
if I hold Shift, it switches to the walk animation and I'm moving the same speed
It happens to everyone playing on the co-op game if they leave and come back
Any mods?
yeah, quite a few

https://smapi.io/log/49932beb3ef84785aa5c1572a1115132 for whatever reason with or WITHOUT mods this game keeps slowing down like crazy after 1.5 hours or 2 hours when sleeping it goes back to normal and then when also changing the time via cheat console it goes super slow as well the only thing that fixes it is freezing time and leaving the time at 6am
could someone please help me with that?

Hey I keep crashing whenever my friend joins my server, it didn't happen before. Anyone know how to fix this? Thank you 🙂
Do you have mods?
None at all
Does your friend?
Hmm
we both just started out
If you start a new game, and they join you there, does it crash?
ok i'll test it out
give me a few mins im getting them on 😛
wait
it crashes
even when its a brand new server

if we unistall the game and reinstall will we lose our saved farms?
okay
i w try
how do i verify game files btw
Verifying does the same as reinstalling but quicker
Right-click on the game in the list in Steam, properties, local files, verify integrity of game files...
ok thank you i will try that
we both verified it
and it said it was verified
then it crashed
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.)
do i just open the game with smapi
You'll probably need to change the launch options in Steam, to what the installer tells you, in order for multiplayer to work.
The whole line, including the quotes and the command part
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%
Yeah like that
Yup
Heh
it's either 1. from smapi
Upload your log anyway
or 2. it asked me to cloud sync my folders
or something
and i cloud sync'd it to the latest oen
version*
As SMAPI may have caught the error that was making it crash before.
it hasn't crashed yet when i opened smapi tho
so yeah
i think it was something to do with cloud sync
I doubt it, that would have only affected your saves, and you said it was crashing on a fresh save...
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
oh yeah i did
also i went to the multiplayer option in server mode, it said offline before
then i changed it to friends-only
maybe that was the reason..
ok i'll upload it
here it is
tysm for helping me
interesting
i like how before i kept crashing then when u tell me to install smapi to test out the problems it magically stopped crashing
life rlly be like that..
Yeah, odd... But I guess it doesn't really matter why it works, you can just keep playing like that now.
ok so when my friend hosts the server (she uses a mac)
and i join, her game crashes, like it exits to desktop
but for me it says i disconnect
when i host the exact same server (using her steam account) i don't disconnect
when she joins using my character lol
Ah, hmm... Well maybe she can install SMAPI and either upload a log if it still crashes, or maybe it'll somehow fix her crashing too?
Installation on mac is a bit different, don't need to set launch options there https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Mac
i see
Yeah if it's still crashing
wait it works now
Heh
WTF IS THIS
i think
this was glitched
lemme show u
what i mean
when you go to multiplayer it says offline
on my screen
when im hosting it
wait this is too hard to explain
anyhow thank u for ur help!!
Wrong server setting may mean you can't connect, but shouldn't result in anyone crashing..
But if you've got it working, I guess that's all that matters.
No problem... Come back if it stops working again?

and the DotNet from a similar folder?
Hi. I'm multiplaying with my daughter and we can't seem to get the Rusty key. It's been a LONG while since we passed 60 items..up on 69 now and nothing. I play a lot when she's with her dad so she's not playing always when I am. I'm the one who's collected most items, she's collected but a few. I googled it so I've tried both of us going to the museum and interacting, I've tried moving items around, but it didn't work so I'm out of ideas. Does anyone have experience of this and know what to do? Thanks in beforehand.
Who is the host?
I am
(Are you using any mods? SVE for example changes the way you acquire the key.)
Okay, yes we use SVE. Didn't know it changes how u get the key. I'll ask in the modding section then 🙂
Hey there friendos, I'm new here so if im asking this in the wrong place just lemme know! 😄 My Stardew co-op no longer seems to be working
I can only join LAN games. I do not have the option when hosting to see my invite codes or to invite friends. On top of that I used to be able to join or have people join my game through right clicking the name on the steam friends list then clicking "join game" that no longer works either (When i try to join a game it says close game and open the game there playing which i already am XD). I have uninnstalled and reinstalled, tried reinstalling redistributable and nothing seems to be working 
if anyone has any insight on this i would love to know! I bought the game for all my roommates for Christmastoday and im the only one who cant play with tthem XD
If you can't create or use invite codes, try the steps listed here: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer
awesome dude thank you for the help
I will run though this stuff and see if it gets it up and running again!
🤞
Fixed it by deleting the folder in %Appdata%
For roommates, though, LAN should be fine?
cant believe i didnt think of that my self XD thank you dude!
@rocky pagoda thats true but if i ever wanted it play with others it mighta been a problem 😛

That's where your saves are, so not a good idea to delete... But if that fixed it,
may be something in the settings file there... hmm.
yeah i backed them up before deleting it 😄
yeah i think it was the startup_preferences file that needed to go
Interesting
(I added the removal of startup preferences to the checklist just in case, thanks! Half of it seems like just chanting and waving sticks of incense at this point anyway 😔)
hahahahaha glad to help thank you for the list!
hi im usually not in support channels but i have a question uhh
i already own stardew valley on steam for myself, but i wanna buy it for my friend (who cant get steam to work)
i know the game is cross compatible Steam - GOG but i'm on the GOG website and it doesn't seem to list that it's 1.4, it says "Multiplayer update" still... am i just being slow? is it still 1.4?
GOG does have 1.4! I guess that's just the last banner they have for it, or something.
okay! thank you!
Heyy, I've been playing the switch version of the game recently... Does anyone know if there's a reason why coffee beans seem to register as placeable objects indoors? It makes it a lot more painful to actually make large batches of coffee with kegs, because I have to individually face every one of them to place the bean in. Not sure if this was the case in the past, though it's been about a year and a half since the last time I played the switch version.
Try turning the item stowing option on or off, depending on what it is currently
Y'know, that'd probably help, actually. I did realize directly after posting this that it's probably because they're both a seed and a plant. I'll try that out next time I make a big batch, thanks. 😄
Welcome! Let us know if that doesn't help 😄
I have a bit of a bug to report - sometimes, while im out of the blast radius of the bomb, i still take damage from them

Is this the correct channel to ask about multiplayer related questions?
If you are having issues connecting, crashing, etc, yes
Well specifically I was curious which option gives the more stable multiplayer experience as I play locally on two laptops connected to the same WiFi.
Would setting up a LAN be worth doing?
LAN would probably be more stable, yes
And I wouldn’t be tied to steam right?
I’ve never set up a LAN, is it difficult? I’m using Windows 10. Granted I’m sure I can find a tutorial but I’m curious if it’s worth doing.
Is windows homegroup the same as a LAN?
The LAN option for SDV is as simple as starting the game and choosing LAN in the co-op menu. No need to set up different networks as far as I know
I’ll mess around with it. Maybe I’m making it more difficult than it really is.
Thank you.
Welcome! Feel free to ask for help if something is still not working, we can take a look 🙂
sorry for a potentially dumb question here but my friend and i are attempting to set up a modded multiplayer game together, we arent experienced in multiplayer however. shes attempting to host and create a cabin for me at startup, but its not appearing in the game when it loads up. we have the same mods (capitalist dream farm) and that loads just fine individually and theres no red text in our consoles
but i dont think theres any cabin actually being placed on the farm when its created
so it wont let us connect
how would it know where to even place a cabin on a custom farm layout?
Some modded farms don't have the starter cabin spots setup. Easiest thing is for her to start the game in single player, build a cabin manually at Robin's, then save and host the game from there
is there a way to remove all the debris on the map that is generated at the start?i thought there was an option for that
theres a stump where we want to place the cabin 😂
world_clear Farm debris in SMAPI console. Not sure if host has to do it
i triedto play multiplayer with my friends but i only have the option to join host lan and cant join them i tried askign the other day and did what it said but it still is not working anyone have any idea what i coudl do to fix it?
@ashen crystal thank you SO much worked perfectly
I'm sure this is a dumb question, but can anyone tell me where I can locate the screenshots I take in-game?
Are you on Windows, Rudy?
If you have already taken a screenshot with the in-game tool, going back to that same menu should show a big "destination" button to open the folder
Oh yeah, I forgot about that button.
yes. I'll check for the button; didn't notice it before.
Oh. I wasn't scrolled down QUITE all the way. Just enough to show the screenshot button, but not the destination button beneath that.
Thanks.
im guessing kisekae doesnt work with 1.4 ? ? ? unless there's a new equivalent i dont know about haha
It does not. SMAPI compatibility notes suggest https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4734 instead.
It's very broken. You can use Customize Anywhere https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4734 for the customizing and another that Martyr is working on for the additional features. This is a better question for #making-mods-general , though.
ahhh thank you very much! i knew thered be something more along the lines of what i was looking for but no idea what it was called
and yeah il take it to modding
is it possible to load a game from one device to the other in any way? i got a new tablet and it has no saved games yet and i wanna play my game on it
See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Transfer_a_save for transferring between devices. If you are moving from one mobile device to another, you could use a PC as an intermediary
thank you so much! happy holidays!
Anyone know any mod that bring community bundle to the new save file? Kinda lazy to fill all the bundle again
@minor swan No, but you could just use the CJB Item Spawner mod to spawn whatever items are needed and complete the bundles that way
Is it possible to create online Farm with IP hosting if there is Port Open and in Firewall it is allowed inbound and outbound?
I would make server for ppl that use .exe since Steam for me makes game laggy and i use Steam for updating game,not playing thru it
@ me for answer as i am out
just curious, since theres a world clear for getting rid of debris, is there one for putting it back in?
Nope. Mabel's Reset Terrain Features mod might do that though
so i just witnessed the time go from 6:30pm in game to 7:00AM. just wanted to report tis glitch.

Hey, i got a question. My friend has stardew valely on the switch and im planning to buy it on steam. Can the nintendo switch and steam play together in multiplayer?
Unfortunately not. The only crossplay currently is between Windows/Mac/Linux.
I had that weird bug when trying to collect crab pots yesterday (on PC), got that error message that my inventory was full...
It would be the IP of the host's computer

(you should know he has gog version not steam if that helps)
Nah, that shouldn't matter
Hello. I'm having a problem while trying to play the game. Whenever I launch it (via steam or the .exe) the game will start, show ConcernedApe's logo (mind you this is all minimized on my toolbar while it starts for whatever reason). When I try to click onto it to open it, it just minimizes itself back to my toolbar. I do not have any mods installed, only the current version of SMAPI. I was asked on reddit to post the error logs but when I try to use the win+r and search for it my pc comes up saying that it cannot find any error logs for Stardew Valley? Sorry, im not very tech savvy so im unsure if I am doing it correctly.
Paste %appdata%\StardewValley into a windows explorer address bar, that should lead to the right place
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
Thank you. That only shows a file for my saves (which were modded if that makes a difference?) and my startup preferences. No logs.
No ErrorLogs folder?
Correct
And you are starting it with SMAPI?
I have tried starting it through the api.exe in the games folder, but it gives me the same problem. Although it does launch the command window for SMAPI.
Hmm... Maybe try doing part 2 here https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows#Option_A:_use_SMAPI.27s_installer
That'll mean it'll run SMAPI when you start the game from Steam
Still get the same issue unfortunately.
And still no log?
There is one now, had to re-open the appdata. SMAPI-latest. This is what I'm looking for, yeah?
Ah... Yes
Try closing the game, deleting that startup_preferences file, starting it again?
Anyone playing on Android with a controller? I have a DualShock 4 and am pretty sure it's compatible.
Ah, interesting.
Does anyone know what might cause desync on multiplayer? 4 of us have been playing and from day 1, one player (not the host) has issues with desync. They have a fresh install, it still happens day 1 on vanilla, strong internet and there are no torches or anything and they have a stable /ping of just over 100 (which is lower than mine). They got a new beefier PC just before 1.4 came out so we have no idea which one could have caused it (but there were no issues prior to new pc/1.4). They desync and we don't see them do anything and then after a few mins we see them catch up and super speed through all their actions made and when we go to bed it takes them ages to sleep. Pausing/resuming sometimes fixes it, but not for long. We cannot connect to their multiplayer if they try to host. We've tried a new install, verifying files, giving more RAM, as I said before they have stable internet. The only thing we haven't tried is port forwarding but I don't know if that would fix anything seeing as they are still able to connect to others, but are just laggy. We will be trying it, but if anyone has any other suggestions do let me know :) haven't found too much info about it outside of what I've mentioned already having tried. Also adding they have no issues playing other non stardew games hosted by the same host.
We have a general co-op connection guide, listed below. Have them check through the list and see if anything helps the issues

Hi minerva, what mod is causing issues with Bigger Backpack?
I'll meet you in #making-mods-general :)
my game keeps crashing when I am trying to play my android save on my computer. Am I on different versions of the game maybe? I'm confused
Android isn't updated yet, yes
Can I play on an older version on pc?
You should be able to transfer from android to PC, but not back. Any mods?
nope
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.)
Does anyone else have trouble unlocking the deluxe scarecrow recipe? I am playing in multiplayer and the host unlocked it but it is still locked for me. Possible bug?

Sup guys
I bought the game on steam(I'm on linux) and I'm really liking it so far
but the thing is that the game runs at 60fps when I first launch it and it kind of drops to what feels like 15-20 fps after a while
Is there a fix for this or am I just an unlucky bastard?
Any mods?
Nope, literally bought the game 2 hours ago
Hmm. Anything like Afterburner installed?
No option for a gpu on that one? Sometimes switching can help if you do. Otherwise, there's not much else to recommend. If you have a lot of debris on your farm, that can be the source sometimes
Nope, unfortunately! I don't really have a farm 😛
The game will run at 60 fps for the first 10 minutes and then the fps will go down the drain after that
it doesn't matter what's shown on screen
Yeah, that's def not normal. What kind of specs?
More than enough
go ahead and reach out to official support I guess, there may be some backend stuff they can try to optimize it

Not exactly a bug, but I'm not sure if the line break is supposed to be like this here. Usually you got the words together. I'm talking about the "let".
is there a new screenshot feature built into stardew or do i need to get the mod for screenshotting the whole farm again?
Couldn't you just use Planner or upload.farm?
@tribal nacelle No mods.

Graphical glitch with my barn. This happened after I upgraded to big barn, and upgrade to deluxe barn didn't fix it
I'm having a bit of an issue with light coming through windows (as seen in the screenshot), and to a lesser extent light from various sources in the dungeons. I imagine it's caused by a mod (I have a lot of them), but I'm not sure what file deals with lighting like this.

no... just to know if you also add mod items directly to the game for those who don't want to use samapi
You cannot add items without SMAPI. And that's a convo more for #making-mods-general as well 🙂

What's the issue?
the save file doent show up when i go to load a game

no, ill go check it out

ok some of my files have _STARDEWVALLEYSAVETMP in the name, when i removed them then reloaded, they just reappeared
If you have cloud synch enabled, it will replace deleted files. Try launching the game & leaving it on the main menu before you remove them.
that worked, thanks!
Not sure, if this is something that's supposed to be like this but...
If you open the inventory/journal while fishing (pressing F doesn't work; you have to click on the top right exclamation mark), and then exit out by clicking on the x, your character will quit
Yes, that bug/exploit was removed in 1.4
does anyone play on linux here?
We have a few people. Feel free to ask your question 🙂
Well I did ask it yesterday and I didn't really get an answer from them and I made a forum post but no one has answered it either, unfortunately
So I thought I'd dm people who actually played the game on linux
to ask them if they had a fix to my problem
😛
If you describe the issue, I can either address it or call in backup 🙂
Well I'm on Linux Mint and the game runs fine at 60 fps
but after a while, it drops down to what feels like 15-20 fps
it doesn't matter where I am or what's showing on screen at that moment
Ah, I think I might have helped you or someone else with a similar issue
Well I bought the game and joined this discord only yesterday
so it couldn't have been me lol
Let me see if @median crypt is around, they are my Linux expert. I had someone else with the same issue then, we're not really sure what the issue was. Let me link you to that convo then
oh hahahaha
I could have sworn the guys'(your) name was something else yesterday

My game get stuck in the black loading screen everytime i enter my friend's 'server', other people had the issue also but they updated the mods and they have no problems in going (to the server) now, i did the same but i still get stuck in that infinite loading screen, it's the save screen after you sleep, but i'm not sleeping because i didn't even entered the map; they can see me in my house but i'm in the same loading screen. I have the Error Log if you like to see -https://smapi.io/log/29748b7d450d49be9caec8a791b26756 . Please help me i'm no specialist on this kind of thing.
PS: as you can see in the Log everything is update.

oh sorry, but thanks.
No problem 🙂
what can i do wrong if my invite code in modded version is not working?
has anyone else had this happen: i just bought a horse a month ago and every day it asks me to name it, like it doesnt save it and doesnt show up on my profile it just kind of acts like every day i first interact with it its the first time ever haha i dont know what could cause it
Playing on switch, was the money name cheat patched? The one that you name urself like [163][166]
Yes, that was patched on the Switch at Nintendo's request just over a year ago
It's since been patched on other consoles (and I think mobile as well?)
i know that SSU and High Quality Fertilizers was patched out, and ICGUM too
The wiki says you can cycle beer back through the kegs to increase the star rating, but the kegs aren't accepting the beer. Was this changed?
That hasn't been true as long as I've been playing
I wonder why some things in the wiki seem so off
or maybe they mean that if you leave it 7 days after it finishes, it ages up another star.
For Casks (not kegs), it will continue to age, if you leave it, yes
ahhhh, thank you. Now it adds up
It's a wiki; anyone can update it
ye
Currently you can only transfer from Android to PC, and not the reverse. No other systems have compatible saves
Also iOS! But yeah, you can't move PC saves to mobile right now because mobile doesn't have 1.4 yet

this is the one part of mod making i hate.... needing to install CJB item spawner and cheats menu... it just feels wrong
You may be able to use debug commands to do whatever, without installing anything else.
for this i need to get a horse, and i dont currently have a save that late in the game
how to check my game version?
mmmm
it doesn't show in the top bar unless you're using mods
i believe there's somewhere on the title screen that it will say but i forget what thing
here http://prntscr.com/qgul0c
?
@formal creek On the title screen of the game, click the ? in the bottom right corner
That will bring up a page that shows the game version at the bottom of the screen
yep you have the latest version
anyone availible to help with CP coding??
And asking your actual question, rather than just asking for help, is always a better idea.
Hey, guys, I've been having trouble connecting to a server with my friend. The save we have together is a few days old, and I do have mods in a file somewhere, but they're not affecting the save at all since I started a regular new save with my friend. We haven't changed any settings since we started it, but we both can't connect to the save we made. Does anyone know what we could be doing wrong?
I have now another bug while interacting with crab pots (PC version) multiplayer. 1.4
- I can't pick them up
- I can't put bait in them
Everytime it says my inventory is full, and nothing happens. My inventory isn't full.
I play with no mods
are you playing with any mods?
no

That inventory screen looks very strange for not having any mods
meh, photoshoped it
Hey, so I was the host in the first save
And you are certain that another player didn't already bait those pots?
he did bait them
Then we made a second one with her as the host. I'm installing an update for the game now tho.
but it didn't showed and still I couldn't interact (pick them up)
If he baits them, then you can't, and also can't pick them up. So if there is a bug it is just visual indicator
you can always pick stuff regardless if there's bait in it
like jars with stuff in them
Jars are different from crab pots because you have to pickaxe them
sp there's no way to pick pots if they are full of bait?
Not that I know of
yeah... kind of irregular mechanics makes that clunky...
I think it is to protect you from accidentally picking them up and losing the bait
like the stuff that stacks VS the stuff that doesn't
there's no accidental stuff
if you want it you should have the option to do so
hello can someone help me with Stardew Valley co-op?

Hi all,
Just re-asking about the below. We have tried everything on https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer as previously suggested.
The only thing that has changed now is we have done all the port forwarding and it doesn't happen for a few ingame days then it all starts happening again. Does anyone have any advice? The desync during the day is not as bad but the biggest issue is when we all go to bed it can take up to 5 mins to progress to the next day as they take ages to load in from the Zzz phase.
Does anyone know what might cause desync on multiplayer? 4 of us have been playing and from day 1, one player (not the host) has issues with desync. They have a fresh install, it still happens day 1 on vanilla, strong internet and there are no torches or anything and they have a stable /ping of just over 100 (which is lower than mine). They got a new beefier PC just before 1.4 came out so we have no idea which one could have caused it (but there were no issues prior to new pc/1.4). They desync and we don't see them do anything and then after a few mins we see them catch up and super speed through all their actions made and when we go to bed it takes them ages to sleep. Pausing/resuming sometimes fixes it, but not for long. We cannot connect to their multiplayer if they try to host. We've tried a new install, verifying files, giving more RAM, as I said before they have stable internet. The only thing we haven't tried is port forwarding but I don't know if that would fix anything seeing as they are still able to connect to others, but are just laggy. We will be trying it, but if anyone has any other suggestions do let me know :) haven't found too much info about it outside of what I've mentioned already having tried. Also adding they have no issues playing other non stardew games hosted by the same host
There should be a folder called DisconnectLogs next to your saves folder https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Find_your_save_files (though on Mac/Linux it will probably be in ~.local/share instead of ~.local/config). It might not be very informative, but it's worth checking out to see if there's any information in it. You might also try switching who is hosting, though it's a bit of a pain just for a test - you could test a new game more easily, I guess.
There doesn't seem to be a disconnect log for the current save we are on, and we have tried another host :( it just seems to be something wrong with that player but we cant' figure out what
It might just be their internet 😦 Mine's pretty bad, and I have a lot of trouble in multiplayer. I didn't do that much of non-local MP before the update, so I can't say if it got better/worse. They can check ping in-game by typing /ping into chat, too.
It isn't the internet either :( as I said above, their ping is just over 100 which is less than mine. They have no issues in other games with internet problems, it just seems to be stardew
(Oops, I skipped over that line, sorry!)

@ashen crystal i have tried that and it didnt work for me
@strange stump I got it a while ago unfortunately
I didn't think much of it because I didn't think about the possibility of getting a second one
if you install SMAPI (the mod framework), you should be able to use its terminal to run debug craftingrecipe ancient seeds to add it to yourself
(if I'm reading the documentation correctly)
(the full command would be debug craftingrecipe Ancient Seeds
(thanks)
maybe just restart the day GollyGee and redo
The easiest fix is to install SMAPI temporarily and run that debug command. If you can't or don't want to do that, save editing would be the next step
(assuming you are on a platform where that is possible)
Any luck for me, Mousey?
Yep! I'm on PC
Where do I enter in the debug command?
Hmm. Have you tried going to the witch's hut choco and seeing what it says at the shrine?
The debug command would be in the SMAPI console
any fix for sound issue?
Aside from really obvious things like making sure you have speakers plugged in, the link I posted earlier is the only other audio fix I know
I haven't, but I'm not far enough into the game yet to have access to it.
thanks for trying
@wise pumice you would install SMAPI from smapi.io, run the game through that, load your game, then type the command in its console
Wilderness farm normally has it toggled on automatically and it was before update but now it seems to be off.
It worked! Thank you @ashen crystal and @pearl hearth

Do you play on PC Choco?
send me a copy of the save and I'll take a look
Yeah, the monster flag is definitely turned off in that save; not sure what caused it but I can try editing the save or you can visit the hut in-game and turn it on that way
@strange stump Give this a try
Hello im very very new and i was wondering if this game supports spanish language or do i have to play it in english?
There are about 12 official languages supported and Spanish is one of them
oh oh can you help me change it?
sure
how do i change it?
Use this button on the main menu:
Soooooo... I wanna play multiplayer with my fiancée, but the "invite code" option is not showing up. Neither is the "invite friend" option. Help?
It only gives us the LAN option and that isn't working either
Try going through this list together to see if something fixes it! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer
anyone know any sound fixes other than this https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/no-sound.151798/#post-3325874
Chucklefish Forums
do you use bluetooth headphones/speakers?
i do not
what OS do you have?
Nope
try going to settings/sound, scroll all the way to the bottom, and go to app volume and device preferences
this screen
it's similar to those sliders, but it will let you see the output and input devices SDV is using--my laptop has two separate "speakers" devices, one is a "virtual sound device" so if yours is similar it may have set itself to that for whatever reason
try changing it from default to the actual device the rest of your computer uses for speakers?
try restarting your computer and the game, other than that i don't know what else could be the issue
your sound is working fine for everything else?
everything else
chrome
other steam games
i dont understand
i will restard
restart*
you could try verifying your game files too
glad that worked!
That's the most common reason for invite codes not working, yeah. Glad you got it working!
anyone know when the rainbow trout in the fish pond drop rates will get fixed?
Guys quick question
i have a full inv and i went to buy something and now im stuck in the buy menu
Do you play with any mods?
Alright
I don't know how to fix it but here's where to report the bug
!officialbug
If you've checked that it's not a mod bug, you can report bugs to the Stardew Valley developers here:
- PC, PS4, Xbox, Switch: https://www.reddit.com/r/StardewValley/comments/ebocvd
- Other platforms: https://community.playstarbound.com/forums/stardew-support
(do a quick search first so you don't report something they're already looking into).
Alternatively, you can emailsupport@stardewvalley.net
My game on switch isnt opening. I just downloaded the new update and my game just has a blank black screen. Any advice?
Nvm, I put my controllers in and it opened
Glad that solved it 
Wanting to check. For marriage, does it count the day you give the ring/bouquet? Or do the three days start the next day?
If you give the pendant on the 5th, the wedding will be the morning of the 8th
So if its given on the 26th of fall the wedding is on the 1st of winter?
yep
cool
cool cool cool
Oh

I've also already validated integrity of game files (this is on PC)
Do you use any mods?
Nope
No idea then. The Locked Door Warp is a map property, although the code does specifically check for winter for some reason.
Did it just start happening in winter?
It seems? I just randomly decided to enter leahs house
I can provide my save, if you know how I can get it
I don't think it is necessarily specific to your save. Lemme test something
Yep, looks like the friendship check isn't done in winter. I have no idea why, but that's what is happening
Thats... Really odd
Could you report that as a bug, if it is a bug, for me? I dislike posting on reddit, and I think thats where you post bugs
sure
Yeah, happened since 1.3 I think, as I kinda stopped playing stardewvalley for a bit on that certain day, right after I discovered it as I happened to get bored
for the longest time I thought something might be wrong with my save, lol
Well, thank you!
Ok, so another question, just in case we can't get it to work:
My friend is having issues joining our farm. She can play her normal maps fine but joining ours crashes her game.
I do have mods but they never caused us issues like this save for the funny odd glitches. Nothing game breaking
I just restartdd my laptop and were about to attempt it again
if she crashes again, both her log and yours would be useful to see
ok, ill try and get them if it happens again
Can anyone help me? So I was messing around with stuff in the files, and now everytime I try and load my main profile, it crashes.
I was messing around with the Club card and other key items, and I set the <hasClubCard>false> to true and the other key items, and it crashed my game when loading my main profile so I went back and set it to false and it still crashes
Upload a copy of your save and I'll take a look. But you might need to restore the previous day depending on how it looks
It's impossible to diagnose save corruption without seeing the acutal save. But if you didn't keep a backup, the other option is rolling back to the previous day. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Undo_the_last_save for that process
Ok I will look, thank you
My friend doesn't use mods period, so she doesn't have smapi and i can't find a way for her to get a crash log.
She isn't even finding the farm in the co-op menu now, even though my game shows that she's still there. her farmer is listed and she has her cabin.
The vanilla game should be putting a crash log in the same place SMAPI does stuff if her game is actually crashing
The instructions on https://smapi.io/log would still apply in terms of looking for that log
Hey Mousey, it worked! Thank you so much!
(it'll be named with her farmer and a string of numbers rather than smapi-crash or smapi-latest though)
Ok, thank you
Here's the logs:
mine: https://smapi.io/log/d89e37a389b3422f9677d6d6e797b44f
and my friend's: https://smapi.io/log/82770962d7214c829b9ef7f1f73494ef
The problem is Adopt & Skin. You have some custom textures on chickens that your friend doesn't have. The only fixes are have her run that mod with the same textures too, or disable it on your end after restoring any animals to vanilla skins
Is there a way to get the vanilla skins for the animals or just disable it one the one file with out me having to disable it completely?
I think it has some commands to change skins but I have never used that mod and don't know the details.
I know of the commands. I meant actual vanilla files. hhh, if its messing with my mutiplayer farm it kinda sucks that i migh have to delete it :/ i don't see a way to just disable it on one file
You can use different mod loadouts when you play so that you could have one folder for single-player games and another for MP. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Can_I_have_different_mod_groups.3F
Question; I cannot, for the life of me, change my wallpaper or see the new workbench that came with the 1.4 update. I removed what I thought were the conflicting mods, but nothing's changed. No xnb mods to speak of, so I'm not sure what's up with this?
Separating the mods helped thanks Mousey!
hey i can't load stardew valley
i've been trying for some time with my friend but we can't seem to get it to load.
i am said friend
I need some help, me and my bf have been playing stardew on switch using local connection, but when we want to play online multiplayer, it says "server has closed the connection". Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
Creating a new farm works but playing an old save doesnt
@normal lotus have you tried these solutions? https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Nothing_happens_when_you_launch_the_game

Hi! I have recently download a mod (CJB Cheats Menu), then restarted the game to use it. The mod itself is perfect and works as it should, but my game suddenly looks very pixelated, even more than before. Fonts are hard to read, images look very strange in comparison and it's almost giving me a headache. The resolution remains the same, as far as I know/have checked configuration. Please, I would love some help. This game is amazing and I don't mind the pixel graphics, but now it's very hard to see stuff without it bothering my eyes
(I mentioned the mod but I don't know whether it's related to the pixel issue or not. Just happened right after)
#making-mods-general please~
sending there! sorry
All good, common mistake 😄
Hi! I have a problem with the Crafting Achievement. The last item I have to make to finish this achievement is the Deluxe Scarecrow. I have a game from a past patch in which I didn't have avaiable the Deluxe Scarecrow. The Scarecrow #7 and #8 that I got a long time ago dissapeared from my farm. I read in the wiki that you can buy them in the Night Market but when I go to the market none of the 2 are sold. This makes it imposible for me to get the deluxe scarecrow recipe and therefore I cannot complete this achievement.
This is not the first report of this issue I've seen, go ahead and report it at the link below!

so i crashed out of multiplayer, rejoined and for some reason my character is moving REALLY slow, like, as if i got hit by a slime? i can walk, but my run is REALLY slow. Any clue what happened and how to fix?
Pc, Stardew valley expanded. I think i figured it out, i exited out completely, my host restarted with a new invite code, i logged back in and it is good now. Not sure what happened. Figure maybe i crashed AS i was getting hit with a slime? in any case, it is fixed, whatever IT was lol
Glad you got it fixed! In the future, if you have issues, hop into #making-mods-general with a log 😄

Any1 know if or when cross platform will happen?
I'm having problems lauching the game and I don't know if it's a problem with stardew or steam
My bet is steam but I don’t play pc
Cross platform compatibility is currently only between the PC versions. CA has stated console cross play is a goal, but no time line has been given. However, mobile crossplay is unlikely to happen
If you describe the issue Milk, I can try to help 🙂
I go to open stardew in steam, I press play, Its says that it's lauching, then it stops
We have a guide for common causes of that, see this page! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Nothing_happens_when_you_launch_the_game
(it applies to vanilla as well :D)
@tribal nacelle Ok. Thx for the update.
Welcome! Keep an eye on CA's twitter and blog, that's where news will be posted regarding updates
Hi! I'm searching for some help. I'm playing sdv in switch and i think the fishing trick with the journal isn't working any more. Can someone confirm?
Yes, it was patched out. See the wiki for the full patch notes!
😢 i see, thank you so much
Welcome 😄
I keep getting this and I’m confused
Are you playing with mods?
You need to clear your launch options if you have removed all mods, or they are incorrect for using SMAPI. Can you copy what's there?
I hope
I recently just installed the game on steam, it cannot launch and after trying all options I could with my last option using SMAPI I got this
I'm sorry
Nah, all good XD
It seems to be the night for it
Have you gone through the wiki page yet?
Yah that’s what happened to me then I wasn’t able to load the game
