Would anyone know why my friend keeps getting a black screen when he tries joining my game?
I did installed XNA multiple times tho I do have a suspicion that something is wrong, and the only antivirus I do have is windows defender which is off
(if you are using mods Epitome, #making-mods-general was the correct channel)
i already asked
Hmm
I know, it's busy tonight. If you don't get an answer within 5-10 minutes, try again
This channel is for vanilla games (of which sometimes we install smapi to troubleshoot only)
_CommonRedist is also missing, im not sure if thats normal, I keep finding solutions form 2016
dam ok
No I dont know where to get it, it doesnt show up when I installed the game
Ah yes, the other common one (while I look for the redist links): Afterburner or similar installed?
I looked into that too, I am not sure
I am using an MSI laptop
I have MSI true color
I'm not familiar with the app myself, but you should be able to whitelist an app or turn it off for certain apps
Also, this guide has the links for the C++ redists, there's a lot of them https://steamcommunity.com/app/413150/discussions/0/142261352650065356/
@tribal nacelle Thanks for the help all I did was update my computer and it now works thank you very much
Awesome!
Is anyone able to see why my game keeps crashing to desktop? https://smapi.io/log/91deed4ffc724399b33a5081be6b4ee0
I don't see any errors and the log says "Disconnected" but I'm playing offline...
I need help please
where can i put in a bug report?
i've seen somewhere that saves in 1.4 can somehow be shared between devices?
can anyone please show me the way where to read about that more detailed

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Transfer_a_save but that's not new for 1.4, I'm not sure what that would be.
thank you so much! thats exactly what i wanted to know. strange, mb people talked about switch saves, or smth loke that that appears only in 1.4
You can't transfer saves from 1.4 to a device running 1.3, if that's what you mean
So pc --> mobile doesn't work
But mobile --> pc does, the save will be upgraded to 1.4
Would this be the right channel to talk about a bug? Playing a multiplayer game in 1.4.3 with my girlfriend, and she bought the new cabin upgrade for 100k, but her cabin doesn't have a basement now
We did start the game on an older version originally (last year Christmas), but I don't think that would matter
Do you have any mods?
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
No mods, vanilla game
Hmm... You could both try verifying game files in Steam, see if that helps.
Alright we'll try
That actually fixed it somehow..we went to sleep another night in her cabin, and now her cabin has a cellar. Thanks!
Ah, good
Hey guys, I love this game and I have one please: make portait in character creation screen bigger. I can't see anything on my Switch

Hey all, recently installed the game through steam. Game closes upon launch (white screen then crash) it appears to be a common problem and I have tried everything on every single wiki, board, discussion, etc. I can find. I made a report to the game devs but haven't heard back yet. Anyone here got any recommendations? One note - there was a repacked version of it on this computer before I bought the legit version through steam. I uninstalled the repack and deleted all remaining files related to Stardew. Not sure if that is what is causing this problem, I can't find any information online in relation to repack to legit install problems.
I'd go over everything here https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_freezes_or_crashes_while_opening (which also includes the section above it) and see if there's anything you haven't done or double checked already.
Thanks. I already followed that guide, it is how I found out about this discord. Also tried this: https://steamcommunity.com/app/413150/discussions/0/142261352650065356/ (except scorched earth because this game isn't important enough to me to go messing with my computers internals. I am a bit tech savvy but not confident enough to do that)
Have you tried installing SMAPI to see if you can get a log with more information about the crash?
!installforlog
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.)
Hi, I have a problem in Stardew Valley. I was playing in an online multiplayer game on my PC. I went to my house to sleep and just after the game was saved, the game was closed. Then I opened the game again and they invited me. But, the world was not coming out even though they invited me. Someone could help me?
I'm having an issue when playing Stardew Valley online with friends. When Friend #1 hosts the game Friend #2 cannot see the game until after I join it, so friend #1 and friend #2 cannot play together on their own when they want to. Is this normal? What's causing this issue?
No, I haven't tried Smapi. I was pretty hesitant to try unfamiliar software but I can give it a go
Holy shit --- SMAPI fixed it
I have no clue what happened but here is what I would get before I installed SMAPI:
Thank you all. May your crops grow strong and plentiful.
^SMAPI log for those wondering
Should I send this log to the developers or just leave it and enjoy the game?
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
Are they both friends on switch?
Yes, everyone involved is friends on the switch.
Before hand they were actually playing local multiplayer together just fine.
Strange, I dunno. Maybe one of them has their internet settings weird
I take that back, apparently they weren't friends lmfao. They're married, I just kinda assumed they had each other added on the switch lol.
Problem solved I think LOL...They both had me added, that's why friend #2 had to wait for me to join before it was visible.
quick question: if i plant something next to a pond on my farm, will it water the crops on its own?
oh thanks (and sorry)
(no problem :D)
Good evening everyone. sorry for the trouble, I would actually need some help if someone knows what to do with a mono which isn't working 😦
So here's my problem, I just installed the last version of mono as mentioned in this guide : https://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/#download-lin
I also downloaded the SMAPI installer and installed it in my game folder and nothing wrong until there.
But when I try to launch the StardewModdingAPI.exe script, I got a bunch of
Your mono runtime and class libraries are out of sync.
The out of sync library is: /root/GOG_Games/Stardew_Valley/game/System.dll
in my console, and then at the end
SMAPI failed to initialize: System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'System.Runtime.Caching.MemoryMonitor' threw an exception. ---> System.MissingMethodException
I don't know if someone could help me out on this one, i'm running an Ubuntu 18.04 and that's the first time mono is causing me those troubles.
Thank you in advance 🙂
I think that's something for #making-mods-general
i don't try to make my own mod I just wanna play with some, I gotta post it in #making-mods-general anyway ? 🤔
They already seem busy in this channel for now, guess I will try later when they'll have finished then 🙂
Yes, modding is for everything mod-related. And no need to wait until it's quiet, you'll be waiting a long time for that, just ask away.
Oh okay my apologies, I thought #vanilla-tech-support was for every help needed for the game.
Okay Okay i will post it there then. Thank you 🙂
Having trouble connecting?
That's more gameplay, but you can see this wiki page: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Multiplayer. You can also ask for help in #stardew-spoilers
Heya, i need help my game keeps crashing whenever my partner joins me on coop
it doesnt pop up with an error message but if i go to the error file it says; Message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
and ive made a new farm and they were able to join that one
so it would have to be a problem with the main farm we play on would it not?
Do you and your partner use mods?
none of us are using mods
THe error file you get, is it only on one machine or do both have one?
just mine (the host)
Interesting. Can you attach a copy of it?
This is the most recent one
Hey so right now to use SMAPI do I need stardew valley 1.4.1 ?
Or does it work with the latest 1.4.3?
Current SMAPI works with 1.4.3
oh
McSlurry, can you send a copy of the save that is crashing too?
It's basically the whole Name_123456789 Folder. You can zip it
yep, that looks right.
sweet
so i’m not really sure where to ask this. so i’m just gonna ask here
one, is the item glitch with Gus and item ids still a thing? and two, does it have to happen in the first year? cause i’m in my 5th year and it’s not working.
i’m sorry if this isn’t the chat to ask that
The item ID glitch in general still works on PC, but Gus's dialogue has been changed so he doesn't constantly say the player's name anymore like he used to.
aww.. does it work with anyone else? i’m assuming not..
Okay, so I just altered my controller mapping to match the PS4 controller map on the wiki. Only now I can't freakin' move stuff around in my inventory with the controller.
thanks for the help!(:
So m opens the map, that's mapped to triangle. I mapped circle to escape for menu/cancel. x is check/examine. and square is C. so what the fuck did I do wrong? The only things that changed were square and circle.
i figured it out yay
@ashen crystal any updates on the situation?
Sorry, it is very slow to test here. Both my PCs are pretty old 😛 Is "Gubby" the farmhand that is triggering the crash?
Yeah, I can't really tell what is going on. I get the same crash you were when joining as Gubby or even a new farmer. It's pretty strange
SO even demolishing the empty cabins, building a new one, and then trying to reconnect that slot is crashing. I'm going to forward this on to the devs in case there is a rare bug that happened here, but I don't know how to fix it so that you can play co-op on this save again 😦
damn, thank you for your help anyway and thank you for forwarding it to the devs i really hope we will be able to play on that save again
hey, so I'm trying to join a friend's game and my connection keeps failing
but my internet is good
what could it be
Hello everyone 🙂
I was curious, what is the first step towards figuring out why your game won't save on a specific day?
I have SVE if that matters
I'm curious how to start diagnosing this
(Cross-posted to modding!)
@west tusk @earnest silo You guys could have a look over this list https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer to see if anything fixes it for you! If you're on Windows, there should also be a folder called DisconnectLogs next to where your saves are (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Find_your_save_files) which can possibly have useful information (but usually doesn't 😄 ), though on Mac/Linux that folder will be in ~./local/share instead of ~./local/config.
Thank you @median crypt 🙂
Anyone? I downloaded the game on two computers, and it's running without a problem, the other one it's not launching the game, I mean no error showed just not start.
Tried almost everything that i got googled (verify the game files, run as admin, reinstall both steam and stardew valley, change library folder, reinstalling XNA framework, used SMAPI to launch the game)
Can you share the SMAPI log if you've tried starting with that? https://smapi.io/log has instructions for how to find it! You can upload it there and then share the link it gives you.
(This section and the one below it are the ones we'd normally go through for that issue, so you could glance over it to see if there's anything you haven't tried yet https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Nothing_happens_when_you_launch_the_game)
Yes, the problem is SMAPI is also not running, so in the %appdata% folder is not been created a StardewValley folder, so the folder for SMAPI logs is not also created.
This is all I can get..
Looks like a corrupted .NET Framework install, which can be tricky to solve. Can you try running the .NET Framework Repair Tool (https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/net-framework-repair-tool/)?
Done, but still have the same issue, and same error with SMAPI
has anybody got the missy's shirts json version working? I tried it in game but it messed up all of my shirts by making them weird block things
so uh i have a strange problem
my farmers stamina won't deplete (it goes down just a lil, but automatically fills back up every time i do an action)
I do have CJB cheats menu, but currently none of the cheats are enabled
i'm not sure why this is happening
For signs and talking to people the curser changes to a text icon but in order to rad or initiate conversation the actual hit box is tiny and i need to click around to find it. This is a really basic thing but it makes the game really tedious to play (people just keep walking etc why I try to click). How to fix?
You can stop people walking for a short time by standing in front of them... May help?
You can enable the on-screen zoom buttons and use those to zoom in to make it easier to click on smaller things... You can zoom out again when you want to farm or whatever later.
Enable the "always show tool hit location" or whatever, if you haven't, that may make it more obvious what is happening. IIRC it may not be that you have to click on the sign or person, but on the relevant square next to your farmer.
ah, in all other games and software the cursor symbol changing is the interactive que that the object is selected. Weird design choice. Thanks for the help
Are there no keyboard shortcuts for zoom?
The zoom buttons do nothign for me btw
ok this hotbox thing is unplayable for me ... I see objects I should be able to interact with (because cursor changes) and then I can't select/interact with the object and I can't tell if I am not meant to be able to interact or if it is part of this hitbox bug. This will be the quickest I have ever stopped playing a game
Does this game not support 1440p screens?
i got sve on and its all working but the map is the vanilla one 😐
any1 know how to fix it?
Both of them do nothing?
@obsidian bramble #making-mods-general, but say what you mean by the map...
the literal map menu
when u hit m
its showing the vanilla 1
instead of the sve one but everything else in sve is working
Yeah, go to #making-mods-general
sure
Is there anyone who could look at my crash log and see if they know what's causing problems? My game crashes on sleeping on fall 28th. It seems to have something to do with the entoarox framework
Come on over to #making-mods-general and share the link to your parsed log (see https://smapi.io/log )
how do I learn the forest language in multiplayer if my friend has already learned it
I believe you have to learn it from the wizard individually (people in #stardew-spoilers might know more)
Yep, you'll need to go look at the tablet on the community center (or open a bundle) and you'll get a letter from the wizard the next day
Are the Stardew Valley Servers down? A friend and I cant play together (Xbox One)
Stardew Valley doesn't use servers, it's all direct person-to-person connection
try the steps in this guide:
!mphelp
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
(it covers more than invite codes)
(Invite codes on PC connect through the GOG/Steam servers. On consoles it goes through the console manufacturer's servers, which is why you usually need a subscription.)
We both have Xbox live gold
Its weird but we will try it tomorrow again but thanks for the amazing help!!!
Stardew Valley has such a nice community
Welcome! If you're getting an error when we try connecting, we might be able to help with that. If it worked previously, temporary server issues might be the cause.
Hello,I got a problem with stardew valley,I just bought it and I tried to run it,but it wont launch at all,how can I fix it?
do me a favor
does preparing to launch stardew valley popup appear after pressing play?
Yes it does,than it looks like its running cause I can press stop
and press CTRL_SHIFT+ESC and look for the Stardew Valley entry in yoru task manager
let's try to close steam, then bring it back up. I run into a similar issue and this usually fixes it.
https://www.systemrequirementslab.com/ click here and see if you can run it.
you'll have to select the game of course and run a program from them, but if your computer can't run it, it probably can't initialize the program either
I can run it,I have i5-7200,8gb ram and intel hd 620
well same as me.
okay. one other option.
open your task manager. right click ons team client service, and click end process/end task tree
this should make the stop button go back to play. and that's a good thing. also look for anything that says stardew - and if there's one running, end it
Didnt work
Well thanks for trying
I will keep browsing the internet,maybe I can find something else
or someone else here can help for sure.
I hope so 😄
@flint ginkgo : See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Nothing_happens_when_you_launch_the_game for some common fixes to try
ALright,I will check them out,thanks
Hi! Im super desperate and i need help🥺 for some reason when i full screen my sdv it wont let me scroll all the way to the right or to the bottom? Is that a console error or game error?
So you walk right or down, and end up walking off the edge of the screen?
No like uh i cant move my mouse all the way
Walking and stuff is fine, its just the mouse
Ah
Yeah): idk
Try this mod https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2266
Hey guys so i play on ps4 and finally updated it to rhe new stuff but for some reason when i try to run left the game sticks and i end up either glitch walking or just slow walking. Is that happening to anyone?
@flint ginkgo i gotcha. Right click the game, go to properties and then verify local files. Reading that error log it looks like your installation messed up on the computer side
I did that as well,still nothing
Looks like I just spend some money for nothing
I tried everything but it just doesnt want to work
have you restarted your computer?
Anyone on switch having the problem with brick paths turning into wooden boards?
@candid coyote That is a known issue which will be fixed in a future patch
Ok, thanks!
@hexed apex Steam and mobile versions are separate. While it is possible to transfer saves between the two, they need to be purchased separately and at the moment the versions are not in synch.
so i pirated the game because i didnt have mons to buy it now i have bought it and was wondering if i can use the same save from the pirated version
if not thats fine
You most likely can use the same save, although you might need to move it to a different location. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Find_your_save_files for how to find the directory the purchased game uses.
its also from the last version so im not sure if the update would make my old data unusable because it didnt update
version 1.3 saves in general will update to 1.4 just fine
So there is trully no fix for my issue?
@flint ginkgo Can you try this to see if there is more information that can be had?
!installforlog
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.)
@ashen crystal hey um i dont know if you remember me but im the one with the save file that would keep crashing whenever my friend joined, i was wondering would it be possible to like load the save from a day earlier or something?
I tried the previous day in my testing and that was also crashing for me. If you have older backups that might work though
Hello, I am seeking assistance on a certain issue. This past winter, I had collected the Golden Lewis Statue and as soon as I got it, I had placed it down in the town by the christmas tree/bench. However, it had disappeared the next time I checked and I did not get a letter from Lewis in the mail about it. It is also neither in Lewis or Marnie's bedroom. Is this issue known and is there any way I can get that statue back?
It's possible an NPC walked through it during the day, destroying it before triggering the letter. If you use mods, it is quite easy to spawn a new one
Ok, thank you for letting me know. However, I'm trying to do a clean playthrough so I guess mods aren't really an option but it may come down to it. Thanks anyways for clarifying
Nope. That one can only be purchased at the trader. See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Tailoring for all the things that are craftable. Also note that is a better question for #stardew-spoilers since it is a gameplay issue rather than a crash/bug
ok thank u
what is the actual email address for support?
!officialbug
If you've checked that it's not a mod bug, you can report bugs to the Stardew Valley developers here:

(do a quick search first so you don't report something they're already looking into).
Alternatively, you can emailsupport@stardewvalley.net
thanks, I did a search and couldn't find anything. The cursor is changing to indicate that something is selectable and can be clicked but the click hit boxes are nowhere near. The game is pretty much unplayable for me. I can't believe this isn't a known issue actually
I am guessing it is a scaling issue with hot boxes
Is it normal that I can't select my actual screen resolution? 1440p
Ok my stuff is disappearing what do I do
I'm on switch
@flint ginkgo Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and post a link here?
@mint dust Which items are disappearing?
It disappeared in front of your eyes, or you came back later and it was gone?
I came back later and it was gone
Where was it placed?
Next to my wood chipper
Where were your furnace and wood chipper placed?
That's on your farm?
Yes
Can you walk through the spot where it was?
Yes
Weird. Usually that happens because it's placed outside the farm and an NPC walks through it, but that shouldn't happen on the farm.
Yea so I was told by my friend who plays it too and I don't have the building plans to make another
Just installed the game, trying to play it for the first time with a friend on steam and I have no Multiplayer option nor can invite them?
I have just bought the game and I have lag spikes every time the clock advances. I have tried some guides like repairing the XNA framework and launching xnafx40_redist.msi.
the issue wasn't resolved
Having a hard crash of the game when it tries to save. Anyone know what it might be?
i have the same issue as shovel i can't get coop to work online (bought it through steam, online, steam overlay is enabled/i am online with enough cabins, can neither join nor have someone join when i host,under multiplayer options/server it only shows offline and online nothing about invite codes,it should have total access with the firewall and disabling didn't help, tried restarting both it and my pc, reinstalling the game, verifying integrity of game files, i saw in an older thread that Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013 would help, but it gave me an error that "this app can't check with your pc, find your software publisher). the connection i have is through wifi and it ain't the best but i still have no other issues with other games and hosting servers) any and all help is appreciated. also pls ping me should you have a possible solution
quick question, can other players not play as someones farmer in multiplayer?
my friends trying to join a game, and all 4 farms have been created but one of them isnt active rn
but he cant join as that farmer
Sorry I didnt understand,what to do?
Is it possible to change your farmer's name or gender after creating a save?
oh no
you can change your appearance but not name or gender i believe
might be possible in some way but it doesn’t say on the wiki
sorry for bothering, but is there any channel where i can tell my ideas for update or something like that? Or is it somwhere else
Not really, maybe the forum, Steam forum, or Reddit.
Can't join my friend. We both tried hosting, invite and code. We have steam, same version of the the game. It says Connecting for some time then Connection failed.
@elfin sage Try removing Custom Furniture, and you should also update the three mods listed under 'suggested fixes' on that log page.
@cursive pelican Nope, each farmer is reserved for the player who created it. You can demolish & rebuild a cabin to kick out another player, or use mods which increase the max player limit.
@hushed hearth Do you know which graphics card you have, and is this a laptop?
@flint ginkgo Try this:
- Install SMAPI (https://smapi.io).
- Load your save through SMAPI.
- Upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and post a link here.
(You can remove SMAPI later if you don't want mods, we're just using it to intercept the error.)
I dont have any saves because my game wont open,and when I open with smapi that error that you see in the picture above is all that happens
Can you open it with SMAPI, upload the log, and post the link here?
@hexed apex To change gender, edit your save file (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Edit_a_save) and change the first <isMale> field. To rename your character, change the first <name> field, and rename both the folder and save files to match the new name.
@barren lotus For the lag spikes: can you run the game through SMAPI (https://smapi.io/), cause the lag spikes in-game again, then upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and post a link here?
@copper hollow After launching a system care program and restarting the computer the lag spikes disappeared . The multiplayer issue still wasn't resolved.
For the connection issues, see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer for some possible fixes.
thank you
Thats the thing pathoschild,the log isnt either where it is supposed to be
I checked the folder there is nothing there
When you launch the game, it should open two windows: one for the game, and one for the SMAPI console (with a bunch of text). Does that happen?
Can you post a screenshot of the SMAPI console that opens?
@copper hollow thanks i'll try it, quick question though, will our friend who is ps4 be able to join us on pc?
Nope, unfortunately crossplatform multiplayer isn't supported.
Is it ever gonna be implemented?
This is support by the community so we can't say definitively, but crossplatform multiplayer would be very difficult currently. Each platform has separate customizations, which means each platform has differences in the fields that get network-synced which breaks multiplayer. So it's possible, but probably not in the foreseeable future.
They would need to unify the versions and implementations across all platforms, and eliminate any differences in the network-syncable fields.
(Or change the underlying network sync serializer entirely.)
Would it be possible with a mod then?
Mods aren't supported on console unfortunately.
I see, thanks for the answers.
@flint ginkgo Looks like something invalid with your .NET Framework install. Have you tried running the .NET Framework Repair Tool already (https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/net-framework-repair-tool/)?
I don’t know if this is the right place to ask. I have a Surface Book it’s an i5 core. Pretty basic. Is the only way to get stardew on it through steam? And if so what are the requirements for steam and stardew?
You can purchase through Steam or GoG. The minimum requirements are listed on the Steam page as well! (should be in GoG somewhere but I'm not familiar with that one)
You can check Stardew Valley's system requirements here: https://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/requirements/stardew-valley/13118
You can also just buy the game and try it; both Steam and GOG have a refund policy if it doesn't work.
is there a way to check if you can play coop online? i read somewhere that you should have the invite code available on multiplayer under options, or set server to friends only instead of only offline/online
Okay so if it doesn’t run right I should be able to get a refund from them
Everyone should be able to play co-op, and we have a guide if the invite buttons aren't working!
!mphelp
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
Right there ^
I don't know GOG's policy, but on Steam you should be able to get a refund as long as you haven't played the game for very long (I think 2 hours)
See https://store.steampowered.com/steam_refunds/ and https://support.gog.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000487189-Money-Back-Guarantee-Policy for their refund policies.
So the only problem I see with steam is I don’t have the graphics card that steam says I should?
Which card do you have?
I don’t know I’ll have to check when it’s charged. It’s just a basic one
I think like it’s whatever came with my surface book.
Probably integrated graphics then
do anyone can help me ?
@copper hollow it’s the
Surface Book Nvidia GeForce GTX
!ask
Feel free to ask your question or describe your issue here, and someone will help if they can :)
That should be fine, the game only really needs a non-integrated semi-modern GPU.
My friend got random crashed coop w me
I’m pretty sure
we played normal until 4 days ago
I suggest just buying the game if you want it, you can always refund if it turns out not to work.
(I have an integrated macbook graphics card from 2010 and sdv works fine, so you're probably okay)
my friend got randomly crashed
Any mods Clown?
Okay is stardew fairly low powered would you say?
we played 21 fall y1, and my friend got random crashed
Crashes can happen at times, you can try our troubleshooting guide I linked above (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer), it applies for general connection issues for all players. If you notice a pattern to what causes the crash, you can let us know and we can direct you to the right place to report it
Like is it low graphic quality
Yeah, it's a sprite based game Lovie
Slightly more power needed than a SNES, but nothing like most modern games
Ah, you do have mods
You just uploaded something to the mod log parser 🙂
your friend, at least, has mods
this your friend's error log
It's not a full log, so it's either a non-smapi game log OR not the complete one, but it looks like a generic network sync failure
how to check mod what my friend have?
my friend dont have folder smapi log
just have disconnect logs / errors log
have me pls :(
Well that didnt work either with the repair tool for net framework
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
You're starting the game through Steam?
yep
!mphelp
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
tried it all and still nothing
i just dont understand why i dont even have the buttons to get the code
or even input the code
i can only use an ip to join
i still have the same issue as well and these steps didn't change the situation, someone suggested this https://steamcommunity.com/app/413150/discussions/0/3428846977648318038/ which i will try in the following days, maybe it helps you
hey, what is the vpn that is reccomeneded to play this game on if you're having problems with multiplayer?
Hamachi is what is usually suggested
how do i get that?
how do I get a refund,I trully cant play this game,I tried everything and it still doesnt want to work
Where did you purchase from Zingasta?
steam
Article "How To Request A Refund"
So... I'm having a weird issue while playing with mods. I added a few new mods, and started noticing that some items in my chests/inventory are... not what they used to be. They show the item type and energy/health bonuses of the original item, but the name/description are different items.
I tried removing all my mods and just adding a few back, and I still have this issue. I think something got messed up with the item ID's. I unfortunately did not make a backup before, so I'm stuck on what to do. Does anyone have advice?
(you'll need to head over to #making-mods-general with a log please!)
ok thx
@copper hollow i dont know what graphics i have but it is a desktop
when will they add Polish to game??
You'd have to reach out to CA about that 🙂 There is an email or the reddit thread, both linked below

has anyone used hamachi for bypassing the multiplayer issues?cause i am even having trouble with that and i just want to play the game i buyed on coop
i did the checklist with the multiplayer issues but yeah can't find invite codes/ not even do it with hamachi
I'm not familiar with Hamachi myself, but it is our recommended port forwarding solution
I have formatted my PC and now my game does not open 😭
!reinstalldeps
Try reinstalling .NET Framework 4.5.2 and XNA Framework 4.0 (see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Nothing_happens_when_you_launch_the_game for links).
And update your drivers 🙂
Unfortunately it did not work 😭
@hushed hearth Can you run Speccy (https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy) to see which graphics card you have? (The free version is fine.)
@hexed apex Do you know which graphics card you have?
so my gf and i were gonna play sdv co op on the switch since i game share my games to my switch lite. however when we booted it up it immediately said she couldnt join online games even though she was on my primary switch. gameshare works with other games seemingly well... does SDV do a license check at boot up or at the least, when online is accessed?
@copper hollow intel HD
All players need to have Nintendo Online memberships. And SDV should be DRM free. Can you two do a local game?
@mystic marsh see questions above ^
hey i've gotten a new laptop & can't seem to open stardew, anyone know how to help?
https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Nothing_happens_when_you_launch_the_game see if anything there helps.
Hey guys, lost all my bookmarks. Where is the best fishing guide or checklist online?
You'll have better luck asking in #stardew-spoilers, this channel is for crashes and bugs!
@copper hollow The problem persisted through updating those mods, but I eventually narrowed it down to a problem with Use NPC Beds.
@copper hollow i have a intel HD
@elfin sage I'd report that to the author of that mod then!
anyone can help me ?
my friend got crashed again, just played 3- 20 mins then got crashed
As I recall, I never got an answer about if they are using mods or not earlier 🙂
we dont use any mod
If they aren't, then have them check that guide I linked (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer) for some common issues. Usually if there are no mods installed, it's simply an issue with one player's internet connection
just brought and played no mod
mo smapi logs, just have error logs
in %appdata%/stardewvalley/ just have 2 fodder and one file starup_preferences. 2 fodders are disconnectLogs and Error Logs
That's fine, but if there are no mods, it's likely something wrong with their internet. There are some common steps to try in that guide, including resetting their computer and router
The log from earlier just shows a generic connection error, nothing in the game itself that I can tell
okay, so, here again
I planted red cabbage on the 1st of summer, now it is the 12th and theyre still stuck on stage 5.
They got water every day and i dont know what to do? 
Not a lot you can do, really.. Keep going and see if they ever become ready. Are you using any mods?
yes, i do. but it worked before and i didnt change anything
besides, only mods that affect shane's dialoges and one where i can see NPC's on the map
Hmm, well you could install lookup anything or something, to see how many days they have left.
You can test without SMAPI as well, to see if it might be a SMAPI bug 🙂
wouldn't it show in the error log, then?
i mean i planted them before with smapi, and it worked
Probably too late for that, without planting new ones.
I guess you have other crops going, which have worked as expected?
If im playing on 1.3 mobile, when the 1.4 mobile update comes out for it. Do i have to make a new save and restart?
Nope, you can continue to use your old save
So it wouldnt like ruin any content update like everything would still be same if i were to make a new file just double checkin
Yep. There's some new content, but a lot of it is end game focused
Alright thanks man! Happy 2020 @tribal nacelle
lady Welcome! Have fun 😄
Is split-screen support (particularly for xbox) something that will happen in the future?
Not likely to happen that we know of
If it only happens with mods, it belongs in #making-mods-general 😄
I assumed it is mods but i only tried for 3 in game days XD its hard to replicate since i play so many (probably too many) days on my main file. thanks though ill repost over there
It's not something I've heard of in vanilla, so likely it is a mod issue
Is Seb always gonna be so distant?
he does get less frosty as time goes on but he'll never be warm and fuzzy.
Ah alrighty for another profile which love interest do you think had the best “story” or most interesting/best relationship
honestly they all have their good points. Personally i've tended to go gothy on my games.
I need help with multiplayer. Me and my friend have been playing SVD with no issues since 2 days ago until I suddenly got kicked out of the server. After joining, my friend (the host), got kicked out which led to me getting kicked out. We tried almost every mode of joining and attempted to join. The thing is that if I join my friend, he gets kicked out and if he joins me, there's no issues. However, we spent quite some time on my friend's server and we really don't want it to go to waste. Are there any solutions to this?
I also have another issue with my other friend on joining each other's co-op servers. Me and my friend attempt to join each other's servers through everything, such as steam join, invites, and invite codes. Unless we're really lucky, we rarely get to join each other's servers. However, we're able to join another person's server with almost no issues.
Hello! New here, not new to SDV. -Hope this is in the right channel
Trying to get this Stardew Valley Expanded mod going. Official install guide mentions config files for the optional farm and some for the base. I have no config file
Actually... scratch that. Looks like its just the manifest.json I didn't think I could open that
Config files for mods will be created when you start the game with the mods installed. The manifest.json isn't a config file or anything you need to change... But mod-related stuff should go in #making-mods-general .
Hello, my game is not launching. I've tried reinstalling SMAPI (it doesn't launch if it's uninstalled either). My log is here: https://smapi.io/log/cae1f091d481439ca3fbc4d87c77c853 but it's the text-pasted version, I can't find the actual log file. I have a lot of mods installed but the game doesn't work without any mods anyway, so I'm not sure if that's the problem.
I'm launching through Steam but it doesn't work directly from the .exe file either. I'm on Mac
Ahh nevermind, restarting Steam did the trick
Hello! There's a problem with Spanish translation of the game in multiplayer guide and tips, you can't able to go to the second page because the text is too extensive, it would be nice to fix this

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
But share the log in #making-mods-general rather than here.
Oki done it ^^
Me and my friend are still having difficulties with the problem I explained earlier. What can we do to prevent this issue?
Have you gone over this list together, chloe? https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer_.28PC.29
If switching hosts works okay, there's also a way to change who is hosting a save file with some editing, though you'd want to be sure to make a copy in case it all ends in tears :)
Thank you, we'll try these out and see how it goes!
Whenever I try to launch the game, I get this https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/5TWc7yb6YN/
I'm on Manjaro
What terminal are you using?
Hey, is there any confirmed release on 1.3 and 1.4 for stardew valley mobile? I can't find any mods that are compatible!
1.3 is the current version on mobile, no confirmed release date for 1.4 🙂 and you'll need to check for mods updated prior to Nov 26th or that still have their old versions hosted
If you need help with that, head over to #making-mods-general
hello!! i think this gets asked a lot, but i've been playing with a friend in coop since yesterday, even today, and she gets a "failed connection" error while trying to play ;;; it's weird because today it worked properly before
Connection issues are very common, go ahead and check this guide below for some common troubleshooting steps!
!mphelp
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
we are trying the troubleshooting methods, but i noticed (i host the game) that this time around when i load the coop file, when i use the menu in-game, the time pauses too, like in a single-player game, and when we were playing in the same file it never paused before :0
don't know if that's something common
Hmm, no, that's not something I've heard of. Any mods?
nope, first time playing coop ;w;
i mean, that happens but i'm the only one in the coop file
but yesterday when i waited for her in the file, times still passed
Hmm, I think while waiting for the connection to establish, the game functions the same as single player. You can go ahead and check the thread below for any other reports of similar issues though

oh, thank you!
ill keep trying, thanks a lot! ;0,
Welcome~
okay we were able to play! we don't know why but we did lol thanks a lot! 
You're welcome! The connections can be fickle, so if you start having issues again, go through that guide again and see if it helps
If I reinstall Stardew Valley, will it save all of my progress with my coop and previous farms?
It should - your saves are stored separately. To be safe, you can back them up somewhere else! See here https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Find_your_save_files for how to find them.
We followed all of the solutions on the wiki regarding the connection issues, and it still won't work.
Boo. It's a pain to figure out connection problems 😦 You could look into making sure the expected ports are open, though it seems weird that it worked at first https://portforward.com/stardew-valley/
Alternatively, since it works when the hosting is the other way around, you could try editing the save. https://www.reddit.com/r/StardewValley/comments/8i5z1j/guide_how_to_change_hosts_of_a_multiplayer_save/ (That's a pain too, though. And you'd want to be sure you made a copy of the original in case something went wrong!)
We'll give it a try, thank you for your help!
Not relevant here, but I wanted to mention that saves on mobile will be lost when reinstalling unless you back them up
I managed to copy the save onto my computer, but the whole thing with the editing seemed a bit complicated, so we kinda skipped that and tried getting my friend to join me. The same problem occurred but I ended up getting kicked out. Is there any way around this, or is the editing a save the only way?
is giving a golden star "like" better or a regular "love"?
Whenever I use the naplam ring and an enemy explodes it has a small chance it will crash my game (Xbox)
Anything I can do to fix it or should i just not use the naplam ring
Just find the naplam ring helpful as it gets worth done in clearing mine levels
Especially skull cavern
Unfortunately you're just going to need to wait for a patch to fix that. It's a known issue
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
ive done everything the website says too
i just dont understand why i dont even have the button to enter an invite code
@magic gyro 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
I'm afraid you'll need to look into port forwarding then, sometimes we can't figure out why the codes don't show up :/
I'm coming to y'all as kind of a last ditch effort after finding nothing related. My wife & I are using the exact same mods, exact same pc outside of hers only having an integrated GPU, but for some reason when she tries to load a save she gets stuck on the loading screen until the game freezes completely and she has to crash it. No errors in smapi, no conflicting mods (to our knowledge), nothing that would point towards why it happens. We thought we fixed it once when we found that we had some mods with unofficial patches, and it worked for a day, but the next day the same issue came back and after that we completely ran out of ideas.
I can provide mod list/anything else necessary to help troubleshoot, just let me know
A log (https://log.smapi.io) from both of you is a good place to start! Please bring the links over to #making-mods-general :)
k put them there, sorry for the wrong channel
All good, common mistake 🙂
Can someone help me? I'm getting an error where an event won't load. (Can someone give me the method of uploading my log again.)
Modded?
Yes
Not sure if the event is though
Wait one sec
https://smapi.io/log/48ff61c363be4694a0833ed3c5dd8d8a Here's the log
#making-mods-general please~
i tried port forwarding put i couldnt find both of the port for the steam version :/
24642 UDP
That's if you want to forward a range in one go. If there's just one, put the same in both.
I am looking to play the game with my daughter. She has her own ps4 and so do I i have plus and she does not. Is this possible? Also do I need two copies of the game or no. I seem to be getting conflicting results when i search on the internet. Thanks for your time.
She needs Plus as well
So the game, and plus and then its possible correct?
Correct
Thank You for ur prompt reply and have a great day.
No problem! Have fun 😄
What platform, any mods?
Nintendo Switch, no mods
Can you try turning off the Item Stowing option in the menu?
I thought so. The controls got switched up a bit with the new Item Stowing feature 🙂
What exactly does item stowing even mean though? Thank you again aaaa-
It's to make it easier to mass fill kegs and such! And no problem 😄
Ah, okay!
#making-mods-general please~
oh, sorry i misunderstood. thought this was support for modding.
Nope, it's for vanilla only 🙂 common mistake!
The game just gives me a white screen and crashes when I go to start it.. and this is in the error logs:
Modded or vanilla?
vanilla. I just bought it and installed it... I tried everything in the steam forums under "how to fix your game" didn't work
Try reinstalling .NET Framework 4.5.2 and XNA Framework 4.0 (see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Nothing_happens_when_you_launch_the_game for links).
I reinstalled XNA.. that didn't help .. one sec while I try framework 4.5.2
cant reinstall framework v4 is part of windows 10 and windows won't allow me to reinstall it.
Hmm
this is also a brand new PC . So it's a new windows install too
Yes, but SDV requires a certain XNA framework to run
Anything like Afterburner installed?
MSI afterburner? yes
weird it shouldn't affect a game lol
It intercepts the game's draw code
Basically
And then the game can't access the textures and bam, crash
nope.. that wasn't it.. still does the same thing with no Afterburner
yep.. brb

nope.. no go 😦
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.)
ok one sec
this game doesn't have an issue on really high end rigs does it?
I'm running on an i9-9980XE, 64GB RAM, and a RTX 2080TI
Nah, should be fine
Ok instead of a white screen crash... with SMAPI , i get a 1/2 blue, 1/2 yellow screen and 1 second of audio.. then crash
it's spewing XNA errors.. and I uninstalled and resinstalled XNA twice
Yes, but something is resizing the game window while it is trying to open, and that is crashing the XNA stuff
Afterburner is the usual culprit, but there may be something else at work
Hmm lemme try something.. I have Corsair fan control software and that's constantly using DX9 to run
ill shut it off
nope.. that wasn't it lol
Do you have integrated graphics in addition to your GPU? Try that if so
nope.. no IG
Hmmm. Lemme pull in some help
fixed it!
backspaces
It was "riva tuner statistics" that was running!
Aha, yep, RivaTuner is on the list too
Thank you for the help! Now ill see if I can tell riva not to hook into games. LOL
I need a bit of help with an issue I'm having with an event.
It's just black screening in the second scene
I believe I redirected you to #making-mods-general earlier Aduro, is it still the same thing?
I've fixed the issues, but it's still not bringing it up
Welcome Tall! Yeah, make sure to tell both RivaTuner and Afterburner to keep their hands off of SDV 😄
It gives me the first scene, which is someone calling/crying out, but then it goes to a black screen
@tribal nacelle aha! I can shut down msi and riva and then turn them on once the game starts 🙂
@tribal nacelle Thank you for the help 🙂 I'm off to give the game a go 🙂
Welcome, have fun!
On steam launch, the usually pop up for 'preparing to launch' appears for a split second, disappears, and game won't start. Tried verifying integrity, reinstalling, restarting steam, and restarting PC. It was fine about a week ago
No mods, still applies?
Yep, just in that subsection for simplicity
Thanks, gonna try uninstalling some razr garbage installed last night to try to fix a different game
It's probably intercepting and ruining everything
Possibly!
No luck so far, this is nuts
Done everything except installing SMAPI to use as a log
Go ahead and do that then
The game works in mysterious ways sometimes lol
Feel free to keep SMAPI there, it comes with a save backup and the console/debug commands mods in case you run into any issues. It doesn't do anything else on its own though!
so um like in a coop world with my friend ive donated 60 items to the museum and we are yet to recieve the key to the sewers
Modded or vanilla? What platform?
Vanilla on steam
Hmm, and you're sure you've met that requirement?
yep, ive counted them 5 times and were at 68 now
wWTF
WE JUST GOT THE CUTSCENE HAHAHA
Hey. I was hoping someone can help me figure out what's going on with my save. All of a sudden I'm getting crashes when the game tries to load a "Animals\ShearedWhite Cow". Which makes no sense. I do have some custom BetterFarmAnimalVariety mods I've made, but they've been working without issues since I updated them to 1.4 and they don't say anything about a cow being shearable. I have a log uploaded here https://smapi.io/log/ee640a7ef4754490872074fd90d5245d. The error is in SMAPI/Game not in any specific mod.
#making-mods-general please~
Ah sorry, misread the wiki. Saw crashes under game-support.
All good 🙂
I was fishing, then my buddy triggered the Lewis showing us community center cinematic, since then, magic started to happen everywhere

yeah that's a fantastic bug
not a mod bug
these are for official vanilla bugs
In general, yes. ALthough if you are on Windows you need to make sure you are launching through Steam after setting the launch options.
How may I check that?
If you can bring up the Steam overlay in game, achievements should work fine (I think the overlay is shift-tab)
Can anyone help? So I wanted to join the drawing-contest thingy but I can’t post any pictures and I don’t know what the task to draw is.

Hi, is it possible to transfer the save folder between players for multiplayer?
Yes, but you need to edit the file to change who the host is
so i edit the folder name to change the host?
This is really dumb but I don’t know how to make my toolbar go down on mobile
Before it was down now it’s up I tried lookin in the settings idgi

I can't use my scroll wheel
Is there a fix for this?
Works fine on evrything else
Ahh that is p annoying I don’t like it up there
Also that's quite alot of scarecrows you got there
And a pretty unique way of farming too

@mighty plinth no, you'll have to edit the actual save file. There's some information on the wiki
ic ok thanks
I can't use my scroll wheel

Hi, I need help with something. So...I was playing earlier and I alt+tabbed to open my google chrome but instead got to skype. For whatever reason, my computer decided to moosh everything in the middle and all the icons, text, display got bigger (it looked something like a safe-mode version of windows) and I was around 11pm in game and I saved it because why the heck not
I restarted my laptop to fix the display issue and went back on my saved file ...but it's gone.
I restarted the game and it's still the same thing, it's not there 😦
@hollow tulip in game? It should work, have you checked your drivers, etc?
@compact oar see this guide please! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Save_disappeared_or_doesn.27t_load
thank you, Minerva! I'll take a look
Yeah, ingame
Dunno, I've had mods installed and too lazy to take apart modlist
Ever since I did the splitscreen mod
@hollow tulip You can check if it's caused by a mod by temporarily renaming your Mods folder to something else and starting the game. If it works, it's something you have installed in that folder. Uploading your log to https://smapi.io/log and sharing the link in #making-mods-general could help track it down.
Hello! I can't update Stardew Valley on Steam from version 1.4 to 1.4.3.
I'm sorry, I don't speak much English, and I use a translator.
@hexed apex Verifying your files should force an update if there is one available, have you tried that? https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2037-QEUH-3335
@median cryptYes. I also deleted all the program files and cleaned the registry. And the Windows cache and Steam cache.
Can you click the ? box on the bottom right of the title screen, under the language selection box? The version number is at the bottom left of the text in that window, is that still on 1.4?
Does Steam recognize there is an update at all? Sometimes downloads get stuck in the queue.
@median crypt I can't update for six months. And this afternoon, the version is still 1.4. I came to you because I didn't find a way to update.
It sounds like a Steam issue. Maybe try changing the download region and verifying again? Steam -> Settings -> Downloads -> Download Region
Here is Steam's page for update/installation issues, in case you haven't seen that https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2274-IFLV-5334
In this case, it doesn't sound like there is a visible error, but something there might still help 😦
(looks for steam logs)
I'll try
Hey
My friend can't join me, idk if you ever had this problem before, but I crash everytime he tries to join. I've tried removing all the furniture in his house
@median crypt
@glossy elm You guys can check over this list to see if anything helps with that https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer
Are you using any mods?
nope
@hexed apex That's a credits list, saying "these are the people who helped work on 1.4" - normally the actual version number shows up for me on the far bottom left of the screen when that is open. You might also be able to right-click the Stardew Valley.exe and check details to get a specific version number, but I don't remember if that's true for this game 
Could install smapi to get the version
nothing worked from there @median crypt everytime they try to join i crash
@median crypt And I don't have a window where I need to enter the invitation code.
I really appreciate your efforts and help. But I can't handle the problem on my own.
@finite delta I'm sorry, can't I get help from you? I really like your game. I experienced a lot of difficulties because of the graphics card and monitor. And now I can't play with a friend because I don't have code generation and no multiplayer. More precisely, the window for the invitation code is not displayed, and there is no generation of the invitation code in the settings menu.
Worth a shot I guess, concerned ape is like, the god of customer support.
If he does respond I have a question too.
How do I get my girlfriend back, she's fallen in love with Elliot and refuses to accept my gifts of hard wood.

Anyone know how to get Chroma to work? It just flashes rainbow all game instead of showing energy and hp and stuff
i have 1.8.1
hi
@brittle kettle what is Chroma?
i would like to translate StardewValley to my language(Croatian).What files do i need to edit and how do i let the developer know
@tribal nacelle for the black widow chroma keyboards it changes the colors of the keyboard and will flash or show different colors based on your in game status
https://youtu.be/8jwlnJpbVDw but idk why it won't work for me 😦

Ah, I'm afraid we wouldn't really know how to fix that. You could see if anybody in #stardew-spoilers is using it? Since it's a third party thing and not part of the game
yeah was just curious if anyone knew 🙂 Thank you!
@hexed apex you could go one of two ways: create a mod that replaces a language with Croation, using content patcher. Or reach out to CA directly (via DMs or email) to see if he is interested. It might take a while though, that's something that's usually part of a content update, not a bug fix patch. If you are interested in making a mod, feel free to ask for help getting started in #making-mods-general , we have lots of resources for content patcher!
Welcome Schuttt, sorry I don't know more :)
im trying to play stardew with friends but i only have lan options and cant join them through steam ive tried to do the stuff on the multiplayer help you guys have but i cant get it to work
If you've gone through the whole guide, then you'll need to look into port forwarding
@keen acorn that is what i do:port forwarding
feel free to DM if you want me to learn you
anyone experiencing severe lag on 1.4 multiplayer for switch?
I tried changing host for multiplayer through this method from reddit, https://www.reddit.com/r/StardewValley/comments/8i5z1j/guide_how_to_change_hosts_of_a_multiplayer_save/. But when I tried to load the save, it immediately crashes. Does this method still work? Or I did smth wrong?
i’m experiencing lagging/freezing on the switch hosting an online multiplayer farm, my friend isn’t experiencing this issue
both me and my boyfriend experience it. I spend an in game hour just in the loading screens when coming out of pierres/on the minecart/etc
it makes me crash half the time and I disconnect from the server
i’m experiencing more of an issue where the frame rate drops/freezes every 10 or so minutes and some part of me thinks the game crashed but it didn’t and then just picks up again to normal until it happens again, it’s more or less just really annoying than it crashing or disconnecting the server all together
i’m not entirely sure if it’s my end with the internet, the game performance or a mix of both
I get stuff like that mostly if my bf if in a loading screen. I'll walk in somewhere like my house or shed or even just across the farm and I'll stop for a few seconds and then be able to move. I only get disconnected if I'm in a loading screen for too long. I know it shouldn't be my net because I run at pretty decent speeds and it didnt happen before the update
even on pc I get frame lag with great net at my university
Anyone know why some plants dont grow at the same time even tho i planted them at the same time?
They were all watered the day they were planted? What game version?
latest version and yes they were all watered at the same time
Is that picture from the day after planting?
yes
If you can go back to the previous day and reproduce it, a copy of the save would be useful for the devs
dumb question, but does anyone know how skills work in multiplayer? like if i take the animal products worth more and my friend takes the other skill, does it matter who puts the items in the shipping crate to get the bonus? or is it just a display thing?
according to wiki, each player has their own skills, so i imagine someone with higher skills would get higher profit than someone with a lower level
If you read down further on the page, the sell price is determined by which online player would bring more profit: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Multiplayer&mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop
@hexed apex @vocal timber
Multiplayer is an optional game mode in which 1–4 players can play in the same world over LAN or the Internet. Multiplayer is available on the PC, PlayStation 4, Switch, and Xbox One versions, but is not available on the iOS or Android ports. Each player needs their own cop...
#stardew-spoilers is better for this type of question too, our focus is on bugs!
This hasn't ever happened before but now when I make the game fullscreen this happens. Any ideas why this is happening?
press alt + enter
That changes the mode from windowed and windowed borderless, but the reason I would like to go fullscreen is because more of the screen gets shown
hmmm, have you tried changing the zoom in the settings menu?
Yes, even at 75% on windows borderless it's still very zoomed in
Try deleting your startup preferences
Does anyone know if i can just delete all the files from %appdata%\StardewValley\Saves and it will remove all saves? I have over 300 save files and want to remove them all and start from scratch
Yep. Launch your game first and then delete the files, so the deletions get synced to your Steam/GOG save backups.
cool thanks
my game is crashing whenever i get close to the jojamart but there's no crashlog on smapi
it just closes
Can you reset your content files (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files), and try without mods temporarily? (You can keep SMAPI itself.)
where do i go to delete my startup preferences?
Same place as your save files!
ok thanks!
Welcome! Hopefully that helps, if not there's a few other things we can try
it works just fine without mods, but how do i know which one is closing the game?
it doesn't even give me an actual crashlog
Come on over to #making-mods-general with the regular log and we can take a look :)
When corn is fully grown does it block walking like beans do?
Nope. And gameplay questions belong to #stardew-spoilers , just fyi :)
Gotcha. Thanks
So I'm playing on pc with mouse and keyboard and it's super annoying when I try to LMB anything (sword, watering can, etc) because I have to have the mouse cursor perfectly in the direction of where I want to perform the action. I'm usually looking at the ground and the character so it's easy to overlook where the cursor is. Is there some setting or tweak that can be made?
I've got an Xbox controller but I'm afraid of the game doesn't recognize it as a controller, it will just emulate mouse and keyboard and still have a cursor issue
There might be a mod for it, but I personally play with all keyboard when possible. Xbox controllers are supported actually
All keyboard? So if I rebound LMB and rmb to some key on the keyboard, what would happen with the mouse cursor? It'd just kind of be there in the way all the time?
You still need it for certain things, like selecting a choice from a list, but regular actions are by default bound to both the mouse and X/C. I rebind mine to J/K and play that way
Gotcha. I'll try that out. Thanks
Welcome! I'll see if I can remember the name of that mod too
Is this where I ask about mods causing problems or is that in modding?
modding would be the place to ask!
Hi, I've got a few quick questions. My partner and I are far enough along in our multiplayer save that we've been able to pick level 5 professions. How do profession bonuses impact end-of-day sales and other things in multiplayer 1.4? I know that there was a bug in the past that only the host's professions would impact the end-of-day shipment, but that was over a year and a half ago. Do profession bonuses stack when taken by multiple players? I'm curious how multiplayer interacts with the professions and skills in general. Thanks in advance for the help <3
Basically when you sell something the game checks all the online farmers and uses whoever's professions give the highest result for that item.
Awesome!
I need a little help bc on my xbox, stardew just crashed and now my multiplayer save is gone
Can you try clearing your cache and power cycling the console as well?
I tried and it still isnt showing up
Does xbox have any sort of cloud backup?
Im not sure
That might be your only other thing to check, unfortunately

I have a question about the game.
On Multiplayer mode, or Co-op, if someone joins and takes the house, is it theirs forever or can someone else come and take it?
Oh ok. Got it!
Ask that in #stardew-spoilers . This channel is for tech support (i.e. bugs and crashes)
(For anyone confused by this message, the original question was deleted)
is the only place to view what version the game is in the ? button on the main menu?
i'm trying to update the game and the ? button only says version 1.4
just trying to figure out if that's short for 1.4.3 or something, or if it's 1.4.0
If it just says 1.4, that would mean 1.4.0
ah damn. okay so the installer isn't working to update the game OTL
are you on Steam or GoG?
GoG
i've tried using GoG galaxy and if i click 'play' there then it's version 1.4.3
but i want to use mods so i downloaded the patches to my computer and tried that. then downloaded the whole installer and tried that
but it still isn't the right version when i click stardew valley.exe or stardewmoddingapi.exe
wait wait i think i might have worked it out
goggalaxy created a whole different installation folder in a different location
and that one is updated
OTL
Yeah, you should be able to install SMAPI there, or copy those files
so confusing! thanks
If you click on the same frame as you pick up a fish in the fishing game, you catch an additional invisible fish?
Thats cool
Not really meant for this channel though
Hey, this is a very niche question, but I'm not sure where else to direct it. I'm trying to play stardew valley through geforce now on my phone, and anytime i connect a bluetooth controller I lose wifi on my phone. I've posted this in a few different servers hoping anyone knows.
That sounds....a little convoluted XD So is it the android version? What type of phone? And are you still able to play without WiFi?
i have a huawei honor 7x and it seems to work albeit poorly on mobile data. i'm unable to test with another wifi network as of now
and no, it's through geforce now so it's the steam version
Ah, Steam Link, basically?
yep
Huh. What type of controller? Is there a possibility it is using the wifi on the phone to maintain the connection?
does anyone know when farmhouseredone is going to be fixed?
at the moment i can't load my save game at all :/
You were in the right place before tiecube
This is for vanilla
(be patient, somebody will answer you in a moment)
what's up with multiplayer lately? it's freezing up constantly. every minute or two video freezes for a random interval of 1-15 seconds. Playing on switch with gig internet and WiFi AC router right next to it. internet is stable, so is the ping from a wired PC to the switch.
does not do it in single
SDV is a P2P game, not server based, so co-op connection issues stem from the players' connections :/
You can try clearing your cache and power cycling to see if it helps
i should have mentioned i'm hosting the game, and it even occurs without anyone connected
power cycled, but how would i clear cache?
One sec!
🙂
Pretty much all we can do is send you onto official support then. 1.4 actually optimized the game, but CA is aware there's some weird reports of lag now

both links work now ¯_(ツ)_/¯
XD
first thing i read was the same problem i'm having 😦
Yeah, like I said, CA acknowledged on twitter....yesterday? Day before? That it was very strange for there to be more lag with the changes made in 1.4
But he's looking into it. The more data, the better!
ah yeah
Hey, has anyone else experienced the third house upgrade not including a cellar?
I keep having problems with seeds 😦
Anybody give me advice?
For the past two nights, co-op, I’ve been having crops, seeds and even sprinklers disappearing! In HUGE sections! I keep thinking that it’s people I’m playing with but it isn’t. Is there a bug going on with spring/summer crops??
Cajun, clarifying: the third upgrade you purchase, or the 3rd level of farmhouse? The cellar is the 3rd purchase, but 4th level of farmhouse, after the kids room upgrade
N, modded or vanilla and what platform?
Hello everybody, I hope I'm in the right place. I have a problem with SMAPI or with the Stardew Expanded. A friend can neither host a game nor join one, neither by invitecode nor by invitation. I and another friend can join together without any problems. In Vanilla there are no problems. Mods are all up to date (Today). So it is most likely SMAPI. I'm wondering if the firewall or the Win10defender is causing problems, does SMAPI need other port shares? (Sorry I am not native English (German)) Win10 / SteamVersion
Thanks for every tip.

If Stardew Valley supports multiplayer/co-op features, why doesn't have it have the tags Co-op, Online Co-op, Co-op Campaign and Multiplayer on Steam? So far it's only tagged as a singleplayer game
Probably an oversight
@tribal nacelle It’s not modded at all, it’s on ps4 and it’s just standard farm
Then no, I'm not aware of any issues like that. Can you try clearing your cache and power cycling please? @sterile spindle

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
oh alright sorry
so, I had asked for help here because my SDV didn't start the day because of a mod. I saw what they said and went to fix it but I still have the same problem.
Here is the log: https://smapi.io/log/86eefe1c93224fc0b9a969755cdff2e1 (Sorry for the bad english :/)
oh sorry
wrong chat
im at the community centre and idk what the best foraging bundle is. ping me with replys
you need to ask in #stardew-spoilers
is there anyone who can help me?
i'm having a problem with the adventurer's guild
it's not letting me in, and i have the bug slime
Hey I was wondering if anyone could help me and my buds w connecting to a farm? We've tried EVERYTHING, from turning off firewalls to restarting and updating a million different things. I am able to join our host friend but he is unable to. We're not sure why? Does anyone have any ideas what could be the issue or how we can solve this? He could connect just fine before but suddenly our server timed out and when we tried to reconnect he was just unable to. We've tried restarting the game, his computer, his internet connection is fine, turning off fire wall for stardew valley, stardewvalley folder, the entire firewall, updating steam, his game is updated, tried vanilla stardew with NO mods, updated smapi. We're fresh out of ideas...
We have a guide here (and you'll need to change your nickname in compliance with #445729663885639680!)

umm
does anyone know if have multiple multiplayer houses will affect people when they join?
I'm not quite sure what you mean? You need one cabin per farmhand
it's the first time I'm hosting a game, she got a "connection failed"
I was worrying that she wasn't properly logging in because there were more houses
You can try that same guide I linked above if there are connection issues
thanks
@idle fiber post in #making-mods-general please
Got it. Sorry.
Hey guys, I asked in Modding but I'll ask here. I've got an issue with 2 mods that's making my game unable to play. I have no idea where I've gone wrong
(This question belongs in modding, you were correct)
For some reason, none of the bachelor/ette's 8-heart events are triggering in my game. I think it may be caused by the only mod I have installed (Happy Birthday Mod), but no one else reported a similar problem.
i accidentally deleted my farmer's pants file and now the game won't start. i tried looking online for the file to put in its place so the game starts, but i can't find anything. what should i do?
No local coop on switch?
There is no split-screen co-op, no
sorry if i put that in the wrong channel, by the way
oh, i found it! i just went into recycling bin haha
No like we both have our own switch playing with a local connection. But it's not working now
@random ginkgo You can always reset your content files to get originals back, too. It's better than downloading the file from a site somewhere, since the site may not always have the latest version.
!reset
See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! You may also want to check this list of XNB > Content Patcher conversions (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher) to see if there are already replacements for any XNB mods you may have been using :)
Glad you found it in the trash, though!
thank you! knowing me i'll probably do it again lol
@dire arch have you tried clearing your cache? Usually the issue is the other way around
I'll try
I need some help
So I just got the game on my iPhone and I’ve lived it so far but the past like 4 days I’ve been getting major FPS drops in random buildings up until I leave the building
I just encountered it in the mine for the first time and can’t even leave because the FPS drop essentially removes the ability to tap and only allows me to move by holding down the screen
I’m not sure why it’s happening or what would cause it to drop it’s all just random
