I currently only have a bad laptop but can play sdv on it, over steam
but in like 5 or 6 days my news pc arrives and I dont want to start again
can I move my current farm over or is the game saved in steam or anything like that?

willow elm
#

You can move save files between PCs or even PC and mobile
Info is on the same webpage linked above

livid tundra
#

oh thats great

#

thank u aSDVemoteheart

tribal prism
#

wait how do you back up a save folder-

willow elm
#

There is a folder called Saves, inside there is a folder called e.g. PlayerName_632763428

#

Copy the entire PlayerName_632763428 folder and paste it somewhere else on your computer like desktop - that's ur backup

tribal prism
#

okay

willow elm
#

That way if your attempts to fix end up making it worse, you can put it back the way it was

tribal prism
#

okay, that makes sense

livid tundra
#

when moving need I also a save?

tribal prism
#

thanks raymondsad

#

okay, testing now to see if it works

#

omg omg omg it works

#

tysm peepoSadder

willow elm
#

No problem! Yeah I dunno how saves get screwed up like that, but I've seen it happen before

tribal prism
livid tundra
#

when moving need I also a save?
do i need one? @willow elm

willow elm
#

I don't understand? You copy the save folder and put it in the same spot on your new computer, that's all

livid tundra
#

oh

#

im dumb

#

okay thank u hah

burnt bloom
#

my game doesnt have an input invite code button

willow elm
#

What platform are you on?

burnt bloom
#

steam but running through SMAPI

#

nvm i got it to work i had to switch internets?

sterile orchid
#

how do you install mods on android

willow elm
burnt bloom
#

does anyone know why i can only see invite code on my slower wifi and not on my faster one?

willow elm
#

🤔 not sure. Is the person you're trying to multiplayer with local or no?

burnt bloom
#

no

peak osprey
#

@burnt bloom there's actually something in the pins in this channel about that exact issue--could you take a look at the questions and give Magically Clueless#9046 a ping?

burnt bloom
#

hm ok thanks!

peak osprey
#

it's something a number of people have been experiencing lately

burnt bloom
#

ah ok!

peak osprey
#

do any of you use a custom mods path? like launching through "multiplayer" shortcut rather than through steam or the SMAPI app?

weak dust
#

Me and my friend made a coop today.
He's currently offline and i wanna play
any way he can send me the safe file or something?
so i can play with him offline

cold glacier
#

If he's the host of a multi-player world, you'd have to wait for him to log on i believe

weak dust
#

:p

willow elm
#

even if he sent you the save file, if you used it you would play as his character and not yours

weak dust
#

dang

willow elm
#

There are ways to switch host and farmhand of a save, but they are buggy - certainly not good for regular use switching back and forth SDVpufferfear

cold glacier
#

That just sounds like corrupted save files

willow elm
#

Someone made a script to swap the xml data around

cold glacier
#

Though... could definitely be used somewhere else SDVpufferthink

willow elm
#

Anyway, it's usually best just to have a solo game of your own to play when not in co-op

weak dust
#

YEAH

#

caps

#

alright so another support thing

#

went onto twitch to see just what mods there were

#

scan now it finds nothing

#

locate game when i select C:\Users\pirat\AppData\Roaming\StardewValley it says unsupported

cold glacier
#

Nexus is where we get our mods-

#

Home/.local/steam/steamapps/stardewvalley

I think

#

At least for me

#

Common is in there somewhere

peak osprey
#

nexus or moddrop, yeah, most SDV mods aren't on twitch--but this is a question for #archived-modded-support, you'll get more help there @weak dust

weak dust
#

yes i am big eye

#

i can see all channels with my smart brain that actually looks

hi i have the game but its not showing up in steam

willow elm
#

You bought it on steam? 🤔

visual harbor
#

im guessing its not possible to play the same save file on 2 computers without having to transfer the save file every time i want to switch pc?

dawn ferry
#

copy the save file

#

then it should work i think

#

im guessing its not possible to play the same save file on 2 computers without having to transfer the save file every time i want to switch pc?
@visual harbor

visual harbor
#

My situation is, i have a desktop and a laptop. So sometimes being the lazy human, we want to game on the laptop on the bed which i cant do on desktop. But it will be a hassle to copy here and there everytime. I guess there is no way

dawn ferry
#

do u have sv on steam

#

it should have saved on steam in general

willow elm
#

@visual harbor you can probably do it with some sort of file sync service like Dropbox, but I don't know the exact details of setting it up

hexed apex
#

Is the thing with naming your farm or player and item I’d (for example [434] being player name) and getting that item (a stardrop in this instance) when somebody specifically says your name intentional?

modern cradle
#

Yeah

hexed apex
#

Ok, wanna make sure I’m not exploiting

willow elm
#

Well, not intentional no

#

It's a glitch, but CApe decided to leave it in because it's kinda funny, and hard to do accidentally lol

visual harbor
#

@dawn ferry yes i have it. I thought save files are on pc not sync? or am i wrong?

willow elm
#

It would be considered an exploit or cheat in most speedrunning circles, for example

#

This glitch has been patched out on console systems because Nintendo made a stink about it lol

hexed apex
#

Lol

dawn ferry
#

This glitch has been patched out on console systems because Nintendo made a stink about it lol
@willow elm no wonder when i had a switch it didnt work

hexed apex
#

Also, my friend got it for free (idk how, he didn’t say) but it doesn’t have a co-op button, would anybody know the reason of that?

willow elm
#

If he pirated the game then that's why SDVpufferglare

#

smh

hexed apex
#

I’m certain he didn’t

#

He’s a honest person

willow elm
#

You need to connect through Steam or GOG to use co-op

hexed apex
#

He has it on a chrome book

#

Hmm

willow elm
#

If he didn't buy it through one of those

dawn ferry
#

If he pirated the game then that's why SDVpufferglare
@willow elm yea pirating a game like this is meanymeany

hexed apex
#

Maybe he didn’t connect it

willow elm
#

Oh! Did he buy the Google Play store version in Chromebook?

#

That's the mobile version of the game. No co-op.

hexed apex
#

Maybe, I’ll ask

dawn ferry
#

lol

willow elm
#

You need Linux with Steam on Chromebook to run the PC version

hexed apex
#

Help!

#

I’m playing multiplayer and went in the woods with the syrup, I crashed halfway through the cutscene and my friend slept, I come back on, no bear paw in wallet and no syrup, I enter the woods and no cutscene plays

willow elm
#

Check your wallet. As long as you got the wallet item, you're ok

#

Looks like a bear's paw

hexed apex
#

I didn’t get the wallet item though

willow elm
#

Ohh SDVpuffersweats

#

What platform?

hexed apex
#

I’m playing on an asus, connected to steam

willow elm
#

This can be fixed with a save edit or a debug command. Do you use SMAPI?

hexed apex
#

See what?

#

What is that and where would it be

#

My friend is hosting

willow elm
#

Do you use any mods

hexed apex
#

No

willow elm
#

Ok, then the fix will need to be done in the save file that is stored on your friend's computer

#

Before that though,
Did you try entering the woods again while holding another maple syrup, making sure it was before 7pm at night?

#

If not, try that first

hexed apex
#

I don’t have another atm

#

And he is watching rn @mental acorn

mental acorn
#

Uh

#

Hi

willow elm
#

Another thing I'm curious about - is the quest to bring the syrup still in your quest log or is it gone?

hexed apex
#

It’s gone

willow elm
#

Mm I was afraid of that.

hexed apex
#

He’s doing something with the files rn

mental acorn
#

I’m just looking

#

I’m not doing anything serious

willow elm
#

We can edit the save file in one of two ways:

  • add the wallet item manually
    or
  • remove the flag from eventsSeen and the secret note 23
#

Yeah don't change anything without making a backup first

mental acorn
#

Ok

#

Do I go to the one with _old or the one without it

willow elm
#

Without.
You backed up whole folder first?

mental acorn
#

Yeah

willow elm
#

Ok

#

I'm just looking to find the details of what to add or remove

mental acorn
#

Ok

#

Wait a sec @hexed apex do you still have the note

hexed apex
#

Idk

#

But I don’t have the quest

willow elm
#

Yeah the note shouldn't have changed

mental acorn
#

Ok

willow elm
#

It'll be in collections

#

I'm just looking through the code, and I actually think that if you don't have the wallet item, it will trigger for you again as soon as you have another maple syrup.

mental acorn
#

Ok let’s try that

#

We’ll be back in like an hour if it doesn’t work, we only have 1 tap

willow elm
#

We can do the save edit if it doesn't work, but if it does that's less risk and fuss SDVpufferthumbsup

mental acorn
#

Ok!

hexed apex
#

@willow elm thank you, it worked!

dusty quiver
#

Hey. I visited Sophia (SVE) and it says I've been given a sprinkler, yet I can't find it in my inventory, reloaded 3 times and tried to enter with 0 items in my inventory, what can I do? That sprinker would've really come in handy

modern cradle
#

this is for unmodded game support

kindred mica
#

Every time i try to open up my Sdv game from steam i come up with this error message but when i go into the games folder and open it the game decides to work. How do i fix this?

modern cradle
#

are you using any mods?

kindred mica
#

No not yet

modern cradle
#

ehh, then i can't help ya, sorry
your best option is to wait for someone who can

kindred mica
#

Wait

#

Is there a way to fix if tehre was mods?

#

There*

modern cradle
#

the only thing i can do is mod support lol, so if the problem was because of the mod, then i could help
however, your problem is vanilla game,,

kindred mica
#

Oh ok

#

hmmm

kindred mica
#

Ok i fixed it

pallid bear
#

I got this wood stuck in the wall. Is there anyway I can get it down without destroying the cabin. Note, I'm only on day 15.

ornate idol
#

This isn't really game support.
but no

#

It's outside of your magnetic range

pallid bear
#

Welp

ornate idol

Vanilla support only

stone pelican
#

oh sorry

willow elm
#

@kindred mica if you were trying to set up mods when that problem started, it means what you pasted into steam options was probably missing a ".

hexed apex
#

Is there a limit on how high your energy bar goes?

willow elm
#

Nope lol
See: any screenshot from someone who has cheated in dozens or hundreds of stardrops

hexed apex
#

Does it hit the top and start at the bottom again or just go off the screen?

willow elm
#

off the screen

hexed apex
#

:/

#

Perfect

hexed apex
#

Do rarecrows despawn, break, or otherwise disappear on their own?

silent bay
#

@willow elm I just wanted to let you know the bombs worked perfectly! It did indeed take 5 bombs but the tree is gone and I even got 4 wood out of the deal. Thanks so much!

#

@hexed apex I don't believe so, I've never had them disappear on their own while sitting on my farm.

ocean flame
#

Yeah I'm sure they just vibe until you yourself would break them

hexed apex
#

Thanks, I’m now confident my friend stole mine

cold glacier
#

Yup, they vibe

ocean flame
#

Yup they definitely snatched itSDVpufferwoke

willow elm
#

@hexed apex if there was debris (weeds, stone, or logs) near a rarecrow, it has a chance to spread and destroy it.

hexed apex
#

Ok, there wasnt, but thanks

red jay
#

@pallid bear if you do a sword glitch to get outside the house you should be able to get it

#

Idk where that is because it's so zoomed it

pallid bear
#

Okay thx

red jay
#

Do you know what that is?

ornate idol
#

They patched that on pc

red jay
#

But they didn't

#

Why do you keep saying that

#

I do it all the time

ornate idol
#

I was told in the patch notes it was patched

#

For 1.4 it's supposed to be impossible

red jay
#

You can't do it in the mine entrance, but thats it

#

Well I've done it plenty of times in 1.4

ornate idol
#

the patch notes said it wasn't possible ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

red jay
#

Well I say it is, because I've done it

#

I can video myself doing it if you'd like

ornate idol
#

I believe you I'm just saying

radiant geyser
#

Hey guys, can I get a help about multiplayer here?
Or is this not the right place?

chrome sandal
#

sure

hexed apex
#

i can help (:

radiant geyser
#

so, this is my first time in multiplayer
I was trying to join someone on the other side of the world
I entered the invite code but then the game said connection failed
I can't figure out what's wrong

hexed apex
#

are you still in contact with them?

radiant geyser
#

yes

hexed apex
#

did you try to join lan maybe?

#

just wanna go through the obvious stuff first

radiant geyser
#

so i put the code in the "LAN game" instead?

hexed apex
#

oh, no. i thought maybe you'd tried that by mistake

#

double check the code for zeros, Is and ones.

chrome sandal
#

!mphelp

mighty kettleBOT
hexed apex
#

Also, since it's a fairly quick game to load, closing it and starting over is never a bad idea. Stardew can be a tiny bit finicky when you want to start multiplayer

#

if you're on steam, also consider clearing the game's cache

radiant geyser
#

trying one the solutions

#

*of

radiant geyser
#

so, I tried to host a game to generate my own character
and suddenly my friend's farm is listed in the multiplayer list
is it possible that I can't join because I haven't setup my multiplayer character yet?

hexed apex
#

It is possible

chrome sandal
#

you select the farm to join before making/selecting a character

ı have a stardew valley save file but it doesn't appear in the game, what should ı do?

#

Is there anyone there

wary mason
#

is the save file unzipped and in the correct location?

#

also is it intact, with both files present? stardew valley saves consist of one file with most of the save, and a SaveGameInfo file with the rest

willow elm
#

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

My GF and i are married in the game. However recently, her character has been waking up (even though she slept at the main house) in the small cabin that was allocated to her at the start of the game and not the main house. Why is this so? Before this, she has been waking up in the main house.

willow elm
#

Does this happen even when you both make it to bed in the main house before 2am, and not just when you're loading the savefile for a new play session?

visual harbor
#

let me do more testing

visual harbor
#

thanks. i think its from the passing out

yup that would do it

So I'm a newbie at playing SV and talking to people on Discord on VC at the same time. Currently I get the sounds from the VC through my headset but the game sounds go through my pc's speakers. How do I fix this?

dusty vale
#

so im in a co-op right and it isnt hosted by me

ornate idol
#

Don't ask here

dusty vale
#

?

ornate idol
#

This isn't for asking for save file editing help

willow elm
#

Um, it is though?
(As long as it's not a modded savefile. We help ppl with save edits here quite regularly)

ornate idol
#

It's not supposed to be,
It's supposed to be help with problems you encounter during playing the vanilla game,

#

Sure, If the save file editing is to fix one of those problems

#

But they wanted to do it for something else

willow elm
#

It's not just problems - stuff like changing character gender or pet name, farm name, child name, difficulty modifier could all fit
But I don't know what they wanted to use it for so 🤷

ornate idol
#

It's supposed to be problems

#

It's supposed to be help with bugs & glitches loosing save files the game crashing etc. That's the point of the channel

willow elm
#

Minerva herself has helped people here to edit their save file and switch gender. I don't know why you're gatekeeping like this.
If it's not for a modded game, and it's a technical issue that can be fixed, this channel is fine

ornate idol
#

You want to just ask someone because I'm quite sure save file editing is a problem to be discussed here

#

If it is then I'm sorry, I'm just quite sure it's not

willow elm
#

Okay

peak osprey
#

save file editing for cheat purposes wouldn't go here, i agree, but like jonqora said there are lots of other reasons to do it and all of those reasons would be appropriate for this channel. there's no need to be rude and confrontational, if it turns out someone is in the wrong channel it's not hard to redirect them

hexed apex
#

Chi!

ornate idol
#

I think save file editing for purposes of things not related to a problem with in the game, and related to something you want to do personal that isnt correlated with support should be redirected elsewhere

Hey guys, good night. I'm having some problems with my Stardew Valley Expanded. I was playing for days in a Coop, but then a error start to happen everytime that I try to get in a Coop. Can you help me? I have no idea of what is causing this: https://smapi.io/log/092d8e6b9d4c4e25a6717c385100aa67

ornate idol

peak osprey
#

they probably sent all the photos at once with the first message is all

#

also, i would much prefer if people came here with questions like "i came out as transgender and want to change my farmer's gender and name" than to one of the SDV discussion channels or something. people who check #vanilla-tech-support know how to edit a save quickly and easily for issues like that and people come here with those all the time.

#

if they go somewhere else they're gonna get someone telling them to use an outdated save editing program or never get an answer

So I'm a newbie at playing SV and talking to people on Discord on VC at the same time. Currently I get the sounds from the VC through my headset but the game sounds go through my pc's speakers. How do I fix this?
@rotund pelican Depend on what you want.
Go to your computer "Sound settings" then chose the output you want.
Everything on your headset or everything on your speakers.
To get on your "Sound settings" just go to the "Search" (if using windows, otherwise i dont know) and write it there.
Best wishes.

ornate idol
#

I disagree and don't think that that's a valid point
There just as likley to get help in other places other than here, epically with the fact that that isn't the the point of this channel

stiff steppe
#

I don’t think he gets it
@hexed apex we dont. Can you help us? Or explain where we should go...

hexed apex
#

If you are using vanilla, then ask here

modern cradle
#

goodness this channel is a bit of a mess rn

hexed apex
#

No kidding

ornate idol
#

Mostly because of the debate vs
"Save file editing go here? Save file editing go not here?"

hexed apex
#

XD

modern cradle
#

the only save editing i did was for starbound lol

peak isle
#

hey guys, for clarification in this channel, any technical question or request for assistance (such as save editing) is appropriate for this channel and they can ask for help in here

#

if anyone is asking for help in their game, they can confirm it isn't a modding issue, and the issues aren't caused by pirating, this is the place to do it

ornate idol
#

Okay!
Problem solved
I was wrong SDVpufferthumbsup

it's all good

@peak osprey wait you can change your name and gender in the files?

#

how hard is that, and does it have any effects on gameplay

peak osprey
#

you can, super easily! and it shouldn't have any effect on gameplay

#

!saves

mighty kettleBOT
peak osprey
#

mostly you just need a program like notepad++ or sublime

red jay
#

i have no idea what that is

#

do i need to download anything, i dont want to do that or risk messing anything up

peak osprey
#

do you have windows? it's probably preinstalled if you do

red jay
#

ye

peak osprey
#

but if you want, you can find your save, zip it up, send it here and someone can make the changes you want

#

(i'm about to hop in an MP game but i could help more later on!)

red jay
#

i have notepad, not notepad++

peak osprey
#

hmm, it's a pretty small download if you want to grab it? it'll be unreadable in notepad unfortunately

red jay
#

well what exactly do i do to change my name, just write a new one, or do i have to copy paste a bunch of code stuff

modern cradle
#

where do you get notepad ++ btw?

peak osprey
#

just write a new one!

red jay
#

so why do i need notepad

#

i dont understand any of this sorry

#

lol

peak osprey
#

the format your save file is in, XML, isn't readable in regular notepad

red jay
#

ohhhhh

#

that makes more sense

#

oki

peak osprey
modern cradle
#

oh cool

peak osprey
#

i think it's under farmerName or something similar, iirc the wiki page i linked might have a bit more info on where to find that stuff

#

you'll also want to change your name in the SaveGameInfo file, ignore the two files with _old at the end

red jay
#

lmao i opened it in notepad

#

fuck that

#

lol

peak osprey
#

yup

#

the wiki page has a nice trick you can do in sublime if you want to go that route, but you should be able to control F

red jay
#

so what do i control f

#

my name?

#

i found this <player><name>name<

#

its the actual name

#

i just dont want to send it here

#

lol

#

can i just change that? and thats it?

#

i dont want to mess anything up, so if not ill just leave it

#

lol

peak osprey
#

yup that's it!

#

it's right at the top

#

you also want to change it in the SaveGameInfo file, and in the save file name i believe

red jay
#

so now waht

#

hmm

#

well how do i "save"

#

nvm

peak osprey
#

yeah you can just ctrl-S like normal!

red jay
#

i did it in SaveGameInfo and name_numbers

#

anywhere else?

#

because thats all i see

peak osprey
#

you want to change the part between the <name> and </name> in the FarmerName_numbers file, the SaveGameInfo file, and save the FarmerName_numbers as NewName_numbers

red jay
#

besides old

peak osprey
#

that should fix it!

red jay
#

yeah ok ty

#

ill see if it worked

#

wow cool

#

ty

peak osprey
#

np! glad i could help

red jay
#

yep

#

is changing the gender same thing or more complicated

#

because if its more complicated i dont really care

#

lol

#

that seems more complicated because of text things

peak osprey
#

it's not too much more complicated but it is a little counterintuitive! you'd be looking for a field called isMale

#

it's true or false, so you can just change whichever one it is to the one you want it to be

red jay
#

so Isntmale

#

lol

peak osprey
#

there's also Gender Neutrality Mod if you use mods and prefer they/them pronouns!

#

so it would be <isMale>false</isMale> i think!

red jay
#

so would i open the farmername file or the savegame file

#

or both

peak osprey
#

it's both again yeah

red jay
#

ok ty

#

now how do i test if it worked lmao

#

welp

#

shit

#

the save file is gone

#

help

peak osprey
#

huh, like the actual physical file or the save isn't loading when you go to load into the game?

red jay
#

its not an option to pick

#

hmm

#

i undid the gender thing

#

it still gone

#

fuck help

peak osprey
#

hmm let me see

#

!saves

mighty kettleBOT
peak osprey
#

aha! i know what it is

#

did you change the folder name to the new name?

red jay
#

ye

#

no

#

ohh

#

got it

peak osprey
#

that's what it is, i forgot to mention that part

red jay
#

lmao

peak osprey
#

you can redo the gender thing, should work!

red jay
#

ok thanks

#

uh nope

#

wait

#

it made it new file

#

wtf

#

uh oh

#

was it suposed to do that

#

ok i undid rename

#

how do i rename it properly

#

pls

#

@peak osprey sorry to keep bothering you

#

how do i rename it without it making another one?

#

do i go into properties? i really dont want to mess this up

#

i mean i already did

peak osprey
#

you can try renaming the farmername_numbers_old file too?

red jay
#

oh

peak osprey
#

it should work if the folder name and save name match exactly though

red jay
#

how? hit the rename thing? or go into properties and change it

red jay
#

because hitting rename makes a new one

peak osprey
#

ohhh, i see your issue

red jay
#

i should be fine, i just dont know how to rename it

peak osprey
#

are you doing right click/rename? that should work afaik

red jay
#

that should work?

peak osprey
#

if it doesn't and is making a new empty one, you can try dragging or copying the save files into the new folder

red jay
#

well it has all the same stuff, its just a second one

#

is that fine?

#

i just need to know, is that how i rename it? or do i go into properties and rename it there?

peak osprey
#

if the files are in there and you open the game and the save shows up and works properly, then it should work!

red jay
#

oki

#

its still not there

#

tf did i do

#

god damnit

#

OH SHIT

#

i found it

#

it was <player><nameKylie</name>

#

i fucked it up

#

oops

#

lol

peak osprey
#

ohhh yup that'd do it! glad you figured it out

#

brackets are the cause of 90% of problems in this game lol

red jay
#

lol

#

letsa see

#

nope

#

lmao

#

let me check the others

#

ugh

#

why tf did i do this

#

welp

#

i just fucked up my old file

#

ima restart my computer

#

its still not there

#

bruh

#

theres no possible way this fucked up my other save file right?

#

i would be so pissed

peak osprey
#

can you make a zip of the folder and send it? i can take a look

#

it shouldn't have touched the other file nope

red jay
#

zip?

#

im sorry i know nothing

peak osprey
#

right click the folder and there should be something like "add to archive"

red jay
#

which one

#

the whole thing?

#

like all 4

peak osprey
#

the folder like FarmerName_numbers for the save you're having trouble with

#

yes the folder with all 4 files in it!

red jay
#

"add to archive"

#

what

#

send to compressed zip folder?

#

zipped*

#

what if i just sgo through and undo everything

#

will that bring it back

#

this isnt worth it

#

this is really stressing me out

#

i changed everything back and its still gone

#

wtf

#

please

#

someone

ornate idol
#

Kylie I dunno how to help
However it'll work out somehow

red jay
#

I mean this is an old file that I never play on

#

But it's my first one and I don't want to delete it lol

ornate idol
#

O

red jay
#

I changed everything back

#

And it's still gone idk

#

Yeah all the brackets are fine and all the text is fine, it's just not showing up

#

Everything is exactly the same as before I touched it, why isn't it working

willow elm
#

If you send it we can look

red jay
#

Send what

willow elm
#

Your whole folder for the save

red jay
#

How do I send it

willow elm
#

Add it to a zip archive and upload here in a discord message

red jay
#

What does zip archive mean

#

Like where and how

willow elm
#

Or okay, just send the files that say PlayerName_366373736 and SaveGameInfo separately then, if that's easier

#

(example name)

red jay
#

That's... How do I send a file

#

I'm so confused

willow elm
#

There's a ➕ icon in discord for adding a file to a message

red jay
#

It says this file name is not valid

willow elm
#

What file are you trying to send?

red jay
#

Ok I got it

#

What do you need?

#

All 4?

willow elm
#

Sure, that would help

red jay
#

Ok that will take a min

#

you cant like fully edit these can you?

#

like how does this work

willow elm
#

i sure can - they're just messy-looking text files 😉

red jay
#

If you change something will it effect my game?

#

No right

#

It's just like sending it as a message right?

latent cape
#

broke a wooden box while mining and a ring popped out but it glitched in the wall and I can't grab it is there any way I can reach it?

willow elm
#

It will only affect your game if I send you back a changed file and you replace them with the changed ones

red jay
#

Oh uh ok

#

I'm so stressed will I get my save back?

#

Like wtf

willow elm
#

So, what were you originally trying to do anyway?

red jay
#

Change my name

#

I was following what someone told me to

#

And then it just got fucked

#

It just wouldn't show up in the menu

willow elm
#

Ah yeah, I see
What do you want your name to be? I can change that too while I'm at it

red jay
#

just keep it as is

#

i never play on this

willow elm
#

Ok

red jay
#

so whats wrong with it? what exactly are you doing

willow elm
#

I ran the game to see the error message that printed about it
It had a True somewhere in SaveGameInfo but needed true
Found that error, fixed it
Now I'm running again, it shows up
But new errors and crash when loading the save. Taking a look

red jay
#

omg it needs to be lowercase

#

welp ok then

#

that would have been good to know

willow elm
#

Same thing again in the other file yup. Most stuff in code is case sensitive

red jay
#

alright so if i go through and change that will it be fine?

willow elm
#

Loads fine now 😊

red jay
#

you can stop doing what ur doing

#

ok ty

willow elm
#

Yup. If you change the True to true in the SaveGameInfo file and the sean_127782406 file it will be fixed

#

I'm sorry you had such a stressful experience with this 😔

red jay
#

Tysm

#

It's backkkk

#

Omg ty

#

never touching that again

#

lmao

#

well i might... the name is lowercase and that bothers me

#

but not tonight

#

bye lol

willow elm
#

Sounds like a plan haha SDVpufferthumbsup

#

@latent cape probably not, unless you get another or stronger magnet ring (but it'll be gone by the time you do)

latent cape
#

#

Honestly I want to know that as well-

I know that lightning can damage paths and stuff but this one still bugs me

willow elm

It's maybe a small change somewhere you're not noticing? 🤔

Anyone else experienced a bug where friends can't join on other maps (such as wilderness) even if the cabin count is set the same?

#

Like if I do the default, it works but if I use wilderness then it says "No available cabins"

willow elm
#

Strange. Did you try both the near and far cabin placement options?

dusty quartz
#

Yes

#

I ended up setting it to max cabins and he was able to get in

why the game dont have a own launcher?

Its got shortcuts though it launches through steam

a game like sdv doesn't really need a launcher anyways

gritty silo
#

SDV is partnered with Steam. Ape has been adamant about staying loyal to Steam- especially with a higher percentage of cuts from the game, the more it's bought.

Steam has helped drastically in it's popularity. That's why they don't have their own launcher😁

I don't see "invite friends" nor "send invite code" after reinstalling stardew. I have the steam version

willow elm

@obtuse crow what is your Steam name? Some people have gotten blocked by a word filter

#

Scroll down to the part about can't connect in multiplayer

#

(like make sure you're loading the save in co-op/host mode, make sure you launched the game through Steam, disable antivirus, delete startup_preferences, and other things to check)

obtuse crow

#

yeah, I did everything

willow elm

Including reinstalling XNA and .NET? (ppl tend to skip those especially, so I'm just checking)

this comes out

#

does anyone knows what this is or like how to fix it?

hexed apex
#

Did the friend who sent it come from a different country @cyan zephyr ? If so because the price of the game changes per country it'll show that message, if you return it and she then buys a gift card to send then you should be able to buy it yourself

cyan zephyr
#

no

#

we are in the same country

#

i think it will work if another person what who dosent live in china (usa , korea or other contry) goes in my steam and accepts it it will work..

hexed apex
#

Well if you have time to wait I can test that later, though most people wouldn't want to do that. You can also check if you're both set to the same region because you can change that, if they're different then it's the same principal as before

#

Also does the game show up on the store page as buyable

how do i set to the same region

#

hello so i got the game and i don't know why it doesn't support my controller on steam

tribal nacelle
#

Controller issues are pretty common, any mods?

tiny prairie
#

with or without mods, same thing

chrome sandal
tribal nacelle
#

^

#

They can help you troubleshoot it, SMAPI does that a lot

tiny prairie
#

honestly i wish it was just smapi at this point

tribal nacelle
#

Playing through steam means setting up the launch options for SMAPI. Launching directly from the exe to play vanilla bypasses the Steam interface. So if you have mods and are running through Steam, that's a SMAPI problem. Controller support doesn't work great bypassing Steam for some reason

tiny prairie
#

oooh

tribal nacelle
iron gulch
#

Yes i knew that already but, i am refering to cloud saves like in google play games

tribal nacelle
#

Only Steam and GOG have cloud saves to my knowledge

#

And only PC and mobile support cross platform, though not automatically

warm ginkgo
#

Though you need a client to play multiplayer unless on lan

tribal nacelle
#

Correct. Virtual LANs can bypass that, but those are not a preferred method

I started playing sdv at my cousin's laptop on Thursday, the 1.3 version. now I want to buy the 1.5 version myself and use it on my laptop, but I've already done so much! is there a video on the subject? or maybe a more clear tutorial? I read the section about saves on the wiki but it still seems a bit foggy, even though it's clear what I have to do now.

sinful sparrow
#

Well, 1.5 isn't out yet, 1.4.5 is the current version. However, saves on previous versions will work fine on the latest version of the game. I'm not sure if anyone's made a video about it you could certainly search on youtube. It's really just using the wiki to find your current save, then copying the entire folder to your computer.

small epoch
#

I meant 1.4! thanks, Odin. and I'll take a deeper look into it tomorrow (it's almost midnight where I am), since I'm waking up early just for playing stardew valley. thanks!

I basically don't know how to save and how to use it on a update. sdv is my first game, so I'm pretty much a noob.

@small epoch the game auto saves. And you don't need to transfer saves when updating

I installed smapi and transferred all the mods from my laptop (stardew works fine there) onto my new pc and it seems somethings wrong with XNA 4.0 but I can't figure out the issue. Here's the game log if anyone can help me out: https://smapi.io/log/4d951a10c26149729ae4ed701bca0524

easiest solution is to backup the save files and make a clean reinstall

Hello, I have a simple question. After I launched Stardew Valley through steam w/ SMAPI, I noticed in the console it says "[game] Oops! Steam achievements won't work because Steam isn't loaded. You can launch the game through Steam to fix that (see 'Part 2: Configure Steam' in the install guide for more info: https://smapi.io/install)." But I did everything correctly and steam runs fine. Is this normal?

@chrome sandal do u have any ideas?

#

how are you connecting

clever zodiac
#

wdym

chrome sandal
#

lan, steam, etc

clever zodiac
#

steam

chrome sandal
#

try connecting through the steam app then maybe

clever zodiac
#

how?

#

like join their game through steam?

chrome sandal
#

yeah

clever zodiac
#

will do

#

nope dont think it worked

#

nope it didnt work

#

any other ideas?

tribal nacelle
#

Did you go through the guide?

clever zodiac
#

yup

#

the join code button isnt there also

tribal nacelle
#

Are you able to try from a different machine/network/with a different player?

clever zodiac
#

idk, only have one network and one machine

tribal nacelle
#

Can you at least try with another player then? We try to narrow down where the problem seems to be coming from if we can by testing these things

clever zodiac
#

like the buttons dont even show up

#

i posted a pic above

#

and apparently my join button also isnt there

willow elm
#

What's your Steam name?

clever zodiac
#

swegros

#

its linked to my disc if that doesnt work

willow elm
#

Hm. I don't imagine that would be blocked by the word filter, unless it's being overly cautious and thinks it's too close to the n-word?

You could try temporarily changing your Steam name anyway, see if it fixes anything, change it back if not

clever zodiac
#

but i can play like rocket league fine

#

and invite people in it

#

do i still need to change it?

willow elm
#

Stardew Valley has a game-specific word filter that affects Steam players

clever zodiac
#

oh ok

#

ill try

tribal nacelle
#

Yes, I'm aware your buttons are missing. This is a very very very common issue and we have steps to try and find the source that we ask everyone to do. We can't help if we can't try and find the cause of the buttons disappearing

clever zodiac
#

gimme another player

#

CHANGING THE NAME WORKED

#

well ok

#

so the account name was swegros

#

but my nickname was just wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

#

like a bunch of ws

#

so i changed it to noseman to test

#

and it worked

willow elm
#

Wow, weird! SDVpuffereyes

#

Maybe it was too long and Stardew didn't like that? SDVconcernedCA

tribal nacelle
#

Maybe?

#

Def submit that one

willow elm

@clever zodiac if you can submit a report about your issue (before and after, what you changed to fix it) it would be helpful for the game devs.

clever zodiac
#

can u do it? i dont wana make an account

#

straight up the only thing i changed was my name

tribal nacelle
#

You need to so they can reach out to people if/when they make changes and see if the changes fix your problem

clever zodiac
#

if you tell them that my name had like 50 ws in it, im sure they can recreate it

tribal nacelle
#

Your loss 🤷🏻‍♀️

Is there a way to divert where the save file is saved? I want to have 2 copies of the game cos steam is constantly updated,

Basically I want steam to save on appdata as it is while the crack is on a different folder so my mods won't just stop working out of nowhere, doable?

#

Im new to modding so not sure, but assuming steam updates a lot mod will break?

tribal nacelle
#

Wait no, we can't help you

vast sentinel
#

Oh ok sorry

#

Well I officially have the game, just wanted a version that stays locked in to the current one for mods being safe, if its about mod, sorry still

tribal nacelle
#

#archived-modded-support can help you with mods. And do a google for backing up SDV 1.3 before 1.4 updated, I know Odin posted the process somewhere. No piracy needed >_>

vast sentinel
#

Ahh i see, thank you so its about piracy. Yeah as I've said im new to modding on sdv so thats the first thought I had if the game updates = mod break

#

Thank you for showing the option havent read a lot yet

civic barn
#

need some help figuring out some error I am getting, going back to an old farm to work on achievements and I have a room that is completely black, I don't think I had any mods installed but it might be

willow elm
#

That room is from a mod, so definitely a mod problem. If you're not running the game with smapi then it might be an xnb mod.

So i wanted to load my previous save into multiplayer, and have found a way to do so. BUT my friend has a notorious way of duping on saves and ruining such saves, so i tried to copy the save into a seperate folder. when i try to load the save it just reloads the game. so i thought it might be because the character name is the same, so i went through all of the 4 .txt files for that save renaming the character to [previous name]2. but it still reloads the game. is there a way to duplicate a save sort of like a backup?

tribal nacelle
#

@golden carbon you can manually backup or install SMAPI for auto backups

@tribal nacelle ok, went there ty

tribal nacelle
#

Np

golden carbon
#

names were a joke so theres no way to have two of the same save?

#

cause it shows up but when i click the 2 one it just reloads the game

tribal nacelle
#

It is, but you have to modify several things in the save files to make it work. Did you read the wiki page on save editing?

golden carbon
#

theres a wiki page on that? with the amount i use that site you'd think i would know about that thanks

One question, whenever I am going to play stardew online, it keeps loading when I join a game and vice versa, the only way is with a vpn I HAVE THE ORIGINAL GAME

peak osprey
#

@night scaffold do you have any mods? how about the other people playing with you?

night scaffold
#

@peak osprey None of us have mods and we have both purchased on steam

peak osprey
#

is your nickname on steam very long, or does it have anything that a profanity filter might catch?

night scaffold
#

iunno

peak osprey
#

for example, we had someone yesterday whose steam name was fine, but the display/nickname was set to the same letter a bunch of times like "ffffffffffffffffffffff" and for whatever reason SDV just gave up

#

SDVpufferthink maybe it doesn't like the special character?

night scaffold
#

If I remove it, do you think it works?

peak osprey
#

it might, but there's also been issues with people who recently changed their steam name--take a look in the pins, one of the server admins is looking into this issue rn

#

you can also try these steps

So when I look at my profile, My foraging says 9. Then I rest the next day and it’s back to 7. Do skills decrease or is this a bug? Because I felt like I’ve been foraging for a long time. I am on the Nintendo switch.

cobalt kettle
#

are there any other sites to get mods besides Nexus?

willow elm
#

#archived-modded-support is a better place for that question, but another common one is ModDrop, or the Chucklefish Forums or official Stardew forums

tribal nacelle
#

The last one is a theft site @alpine hatch please don't advertise it

alpine hatch
#

shit i didn't know that i'm so sorry

tribal nacelle
#

@valid crater That's a good question for #stardew-valley, but in short the game doesn't save until you sleep, including exp

#

It's fine, just for reference

valid crater
#

@tribal nacelle Oh no I saved it, but the next day those levels decreased

tribal nacelle
#

birdsquint hmm. any mods?

Oh wait, Switch, no

No I play on the switch

I am having a problem that I met all the villagers but it is at 27/28 can someone help me out?

tribal nacelle
#

Can you screenshot your friend list please?

covert crystal
tribal nacelle
#

Hmm. Did you confirm you talked to Robin and Lewis after the cutscene? I think those two can bug out sometimes

covert crystal
#

I did

tribal nacelle
#

And Willy?

covert crystal
#

Yes

tribal nacelle
#

That's very odd. Which platform and any mods?

covert crystal
#

Mobile and no mods

tribal nacelle

Make double sure you've spoken to every single NPC (and not just gifted, regular talk) and if so

#

I can't find anything about this in the chat, but my saves aren't updating since two days ago, even though I played today morning

tribal nacelle
#

Make sure your Steam sync isn't overriding the files

hoary nest
#

How do I check that?

tribal nacelle
#

You can check to see if it's turned on at all in the Steam client, by right clicking on the game. If it is, are you seeing a pop up when loading the game about file mismatch?

hoary nest
#

Nope, it loads all fine.

tribal nacelle
#

Hmm. Any mods?

hoary nest
#

Yes, but I've used them on other saves and all the other ones are fine

tribal nacelle
hoary nest

Alrighty, thanks!

No problem

https://smapi.io/log. Hi, im hoping someone can give me some advice on what can be causing my game to crash constantly after day 5....i have a fair few mods installed and would be grateful if someone can help to pinpoint exactly what may be causing the issue. Many thanks 😃

modern cradle
#

this is for vanilla game support. if you can recreate the crash in vanilla, then it's not a mod problem

@dusty trellis That link is just to the log page itself, you'll want to share the direct link to your log in #archived-modded-support :)

Can someone please help? I've recently tried to launch Stardew Valley on steam, yet it says there isn't an executable. Steam gave me some solutions to try, but they didn't work. Does anyone have any ideas on what to use?
