Controllers are still supported! I use a steam controller and when playing with my s/o she uses a switch controller
Do we know if their is ever gonna be across Consul gaming for stardew
I'm not 100% sure if it's been a direct no but it's been said it would be very very unlikely due to how immense of a task it would be
Ok
I need help, if this isn’t the place please direct me. I didn’t get the local legend trophy on PS4. Admittedly I did skip the cutscene but I do have the in game award and even did the hidden bundle for movie theater. Does this mean I have to start the game over on a new file? I’m already in winter of year two and completed it back in summer. Any help would be appreciated
Very specific question, but is there any mod or a simple way to duplicate a save file? Not a backup but a seperate save file that has the same progress as the other but running separately.
In my last game, music continues to play despite the music slider being at 0 (leftmost). Moving the slider around does nothing
That slider was 0 from the beginning of the game because I left it at 0 the previous session
in terms of items that can be donated to the museum, these are all minerals & artifacts (except for geodes)?
I need help, i have a farm im hosting for boyfriend and me and we could play well before, but now i have no option to invite him to join and he cant join the game either, i already restarted the game many times and im not using mods but he cant join anymore 😦
!mphelp have you checked this?
See this page for connection issues in multiplayer: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer. (Applies to both vanilla and modded games; console players just check as many steps as you can!)
So I’ve run into a problem where Gunther is not giving me the rusty key. At this point i’ve donated 69 items so i’m not sure what’s going wrong. Editing the file isn’t an option because i’m playing on a switch, and i haven’t found a clear solution yet searching online (bc most of what i find mentions issues with mods). Anyone else run into this before or know how to fix it? 🤔
Anyone else have a problem getting in multiplayer?

With smapi you can force achievements on steam that break like that, and do make sure that you have the steam overlay on otherwise achievements sometimes don't work
!smapi
SMAPI (https://smapi.io/) is the mod loader for Stardew Valley. It loads mods into the game, provides APIs for mods to use, intercepts errors, and backs up your save files automatically.
If you have trouble you can ask in #archived-modded-support
So did you try all the steps listed there?
Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like BT aint for me either
It sounds like it would work but I can't guarantee it
¯_(ツ)_/¯
?
how!?
Huzzah!
basically i went to my character SDV file and deleted everything between the two achievement parameters, and when i loaded up the game it basically forced the game to give me every achievement again
That's quite a bit easier to do than having to install smapi tbh
lol
That's not actually giving them every achievement freely, it's just removing the ones he had then the game replaces them so that steam recognizes it
everyone helping out in this channel is volunteering their time. please don't ping a specific person if they're unable to help any more
ok
Run into the 'enter invite code' problem again, tried all the fixes, doesn't seem to work, verifying, firewall/antivirus, installing, etc...
is there an online/multiplayer issue? we're having the same problem too.. sometimes the "invite friend" button is not present
hi why cant i buy the game from the ps4 store?
#bulletin-board message
Still this :/
Did something go wrong with your game? This is the page for you. (This page isn't only for players who use mods!)
@hexed apex
So I've been hunting for the last two missing Journal pages for about 4 full seasons now
And I haven't found anything. Is there a bug that they stop spawning at some point, or do they have specific triggers?
@thorny helm You leveled up to Cowpoke. You can now speak in our voice channels!
any news on how long it will take @worthy lake
All news after has been just that he's still been working on it with hopes of it being soon so not really :/
thank youuu
dm me if you wana play on pc im host
why are you putting this everywhere
There is a channel specifically for this stuff
#multiplayer-lfg-old
exactly
no probs hope you get it fixed
is there a way to get around the block in eu? can i buy a physical copy from like the US?
i tried joining my friend, i clicked on the farm and my screen went black and it went back to the farm selection screen. I have been trying multiple times and i still cant join, can someone help
I dont understand how to get into my friends game or invite them to mine
how do i play mupltiplayer with my friends
we need your platform, details
so
I bought the game today on steam
and then i searched videos how to play with my friends
so i tired one, i hosted a game
and then when i wanted to press the "invite a friend" it didnt work
as mcuh as i know you can invite them to your friends from steam
did they get it on steam too?
yea
are you on pc
yep
let me search a little for you i dont know much about steam
i have to invite them from the other friends menu

i cant invite from in the game either
Have you tried everything here?
oke
@crystal totem after you try this and it still doesnt work you can use hamachi(thats what im using)
Uhh so i just went and loaded up my coop save, and when it load it it just says "you are now hosting a multiplayer game", but no code shows up and noone can join through shift tab either
like, no invite option shows up at all
ah im sorry i cant help with that
ive used @fleet sapphire method for other games so that might work
there is some good tutorials online
yeah it does make you connect to the same ip just like you are in the same room
Tbh I think the multiplayer is a little borked in this update
It worked just fine yesterday
maybe its having a funny moment for now
hmm maybe?
oh the invite code option isn't even showing
like i can't join via invite code either. just noticed
Hello .. since 1.5.3 when I launch smapi the console closes but the games Launches fine... Anyone have the same issue?
This would be a better question for #archived-modded-support ! They "specialize" in this type of stuff 😄
yeah i've restarted my router and pc, and noone is able to join me and i don't have an enter invite code option so i doubt i'll be able to join someone else
how can i start a LAN server for my friend and me
Done that.-
idk what to do after
sometimes it makes me start a Lan and sometimes it doesn't
oh create a world then give your friend the code
I think
There is no code.
ok then have your friend click
lemme check
Have your friend click join LAN game
@worthy lake thanks
then?
then enter the IP
What ip
not sure
oh
never done LAN
No.
since you're trying to play LAN
we arent
you have to be on the same network to play LAN
Cant you use a 3rd party software Like hamachi
I don't think so
you should be able to?
Not sure
or if you know how to port forward you can probably do that too. i'm doing it now so i'll let you know if it works
Ok thanks
portforwarding did not seem to work for me atleast. gonna note that the enter invite code option dissapeared from my friend's game too so it might be that multiplayer is just broken right now???
I and my friend play on steam
And there is no code for host
My friends even do not see where to input code
It's strange
You're not the only one. Seems like there's some kind of issue or something.
With the amount of people who have had problems today I think something has just gone wrong today, or stardew is having a bad day
There is no other option to connect?
Can we play multiplayer until this prob fixed?
is there a way to zoom out more than 75%?
hey guys, im trying to play coop with a friend but neither of our farms are showing up in the tab nor are we able to join via steam
any clues?
same
did a fair bit of searching too but nothing relevant came by
Roughly since today
I found out about the issue when i tried to play with my friend around 2 hours ago
but yeah it worked fine yesterday so roughly since today
maybe one of you don't have it updated?
should be updated for both, she just bought it
Thats strange...
we're not getting the "join via invite code" or whatever it is exactly, in the coop screen either
yeah multiplayer is a bit broken right now
has there been any kind of official statement of any kind?
not yet. We just have to be patient 🙂
yeah i suppose so. cant hurt to wait for a little bit
update: verifying game files worked for one of us!
oh?
loading another online game helped for the other person. it helps steam connect easier or something, not sure how exactly but those are 2 things that helped for us
If it works it works? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
yep!
Thank you mate worked for us too 👍
sorry
this one worked
I have a problem with the audio of the game... when I enter the joja mart no sound at all plays. Its all silent. Any idea of what could be causing this?
Are you using any mods?
no mods
Latest version?
AFAIK
I'm guessing pc version?
Yes
Haven't played in two years and started a new game file to try out the new content
!officialbug
If you've checked that it's not a mod bug, you can report bugs to the Stardew Valley developers here: https://forums.stardewvalley.net/forums/help-bug-reports.12/ (do a quick search first so you don't report something they're already looking into). Alternatively, you can email support@stardewvalley.net
You might also try verifying your game files on steam
Might be a file got missed or something when it downloaded
thanks
already done that. the second thing I tried was that
another game entirely
i loaded up destiny for example, my friend loaded CSGO
awesome!
Hmm yeah didn't work for me unfortunately
Well, time to register at the forums and write a bug report
not without a mod
have anyone the same issue with lags and short freezes in the multiplayer-modus on the switch
my multiplayer isn't working, i can't join by code:
multiple people have had this issue today. idk why but it's been like that all day for me.
Some people have reported that verifying integrity of game files and/or starting a different game entirely that has multiplayer (like CS:GO or something) and going back to stardew has fixed it for them.
This has not worked for me or my friend though
what he said ^
SaltyBot has joined the channel
hmmmm, incase you couldn't play multiplayer but you could LAN, hamachi or zerotier could be considered an option as a temporary solution ?
hamachi is basically like a program that allows you make virtual private networks or something like that (VPN) and if someone joins with you to a room your computer with stardew valley would recognize it as LAN
i think
Yeah
Quick question, before when you put “ConcernedApe” as your favorite thing before you would receive an energy boost. Did they patch it out?
does anybody know where do i find the steam back up info? I think I just lost my farm :C
I remember doing the backup AND it says it is done but it was rewritten??
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Backups i think
This is a better question for #archived-modded-support
I think the people over at #archived-modded-support will be glad to answer your question 🙂
oh lol
👀 Can't beat typing speed mcgee
damn gotta get on that type racer grind
Ah! Sorry, I thought this chat was for that, my bad! I'll ask there!
No worries 🙂
hey having a sudden bug with multiplayer. trying to host a saved game that i was literally just playing with a friend 2 seconds ago. i needed to restart the game b/c made an error throughout the daily activities. then when i tried to rehost the same game i get this
no show invite code, invite friends, etc.
i restarted my computer, restarted steam, restarted the game etc
never had this before
Oh i have a copy paste for this. hold on
(yeah MP has been breaking all day for people apparently. me included)
yeah super weird
Multiple people have had issues getting multiplayer to work today. Both hosting and trying to join a game (no option to join via steam or a code)
Potential fixes: (these are not guaranteed to work, but some people have reported that it has worked for them)
- Try verifying the intergity of the game files. To do this, go to steam, right click on stardew valley and click on properties. From there click local files and you should see a button called "verify integrity of game files".
- Try launching a different game that uses online and return to stardew after. Some people had luck with CS:GO and destiny, but try any game that has online
"None of these fixes worked for me"
- Don't worry. It didn't work for me either. We just have to be patient and wait for a fix 🙂
"Are there any other options?"
- Yes, you can use third party programs like Hamachi or zerotier to connect via LAN. Since this is a stardew valley discord i won't be providing instructions on how to do this here, but you can probably find a tutorial on this online. Keep in mind that this is not an official solution and it's probably better to wait unless you absolutely want to play multiplayer right now
like we've been playing on this same farm for about 30 mins then i tried to rehost and bam
found it
Yeah it's super weird. I got it to work once, but then my game crashed and i have not been able to host all day. Or join
Like i don't even have an invite code option on the join menu
Hm
i keep getting a green screen of death on mine? tho i think that has more to do with my graphics card
so probably unrelated
Oh.. i have not seen that issue
An alternate solution may be to if you can do the steam couch thing and split screen co-op but it's going to be really weird to play with
I'd do that personally, but then my friend wouldn't be able to use his character
At least stardews is vertical and not horizontal so it actually works rather well
ah
I play with my s/o and the only downfall is that mods are not that friendly with it sometimes
ohh never thought about that. yeah i can see that being an issue.
jeez why is my discord lagging. this pc isn't even 2 weeks old (anyway i think we're getting a little too off topic perhaps?)
Probably 😅 a good ctr r might help your discord lag 👀
yeah good idea. thx
ok so verifying game files worked for me
weird fa
af
maybe something messed up the game when i restarted with the game still running because, well, i couldnt see my fucking screen lol
insert i guide others to a treasure i cannot possess meme image here?
Hi everyone is multiplayer down right now? :))
@worthy lake sadly didnt work, but thx for the help
anyone knows how to fix this ? i don t have the multiplayer option,after i entered the game with steam cloud problem,it does not give me the option to invite friends
i downloaded the game 3 times x-x
Multiplayer is having some issues right now! We don't know why we just know it hasn't wanted to work today
salve amigo sabe se esta off?

sim
acho q ainda esta off,minha amiga estava off tbm
If you sleep past 12:00 AM, you lose the energy you get by sleeping every time a minute passes after 12:00 AM, (if you sleep at 12:10 AM, you get 97.5% of your max energy the next day, if you sleep at 1:50 AM, you only get 12.5% of your max energy the next day). Sleep on or before 12:00 AM and you'll get max energy. And for the health bar being red that's normal.
is multiplayer still down at the moment?
Ive had this issue for awhile and have asked here 2 times but never got an answer that fixed it but in a nutshell, The level up screens you get after you level up for a level continually show up after the night i level up and ive gotten level 10 on everything and its not fixed pensive is there any way to fix this? this happened on both a pure vanilla file and a modded one
i dont seem to have the option to join my friend through multiplayer is there a fix for this?
Well I was able to fix the multiplayer bug on my end, my problem was running stardew modded. Once I deleted the file path thing on steam for the launch options, everything ran fine.
@inland imp this may be of help
I dont have any mods so that couldnt be it
Yeah i don’t run it modded either
o
well outside of the given methods I think the only other way is to wait
or just keep trying different things and changing conditions to see what works out
my zoom level in the screenshots isnt saving once i leave the options tab
if i leave options tab it goes back to 25 %
if i take screenshots with 100% while in options tab the image will sitll look like 25%
how can i fix this
friend cant join me or each other
was just plyaing and logged out
a way to fix this?

hi everyone the game invite code isnt showing for me and my partner to play together. someone help?
i am unable to launch it pls help
seems that a lot of people are having this issue lately. Have you checked the link posted above your message?
I usually play with friends via Steam (sending invite through the DM in Friends list), and we were playing yesterday but today we get the invite, join and cant actually load into the world. Anyone else having issues like this?
If you are playing through steam, have you tried verifying your game files?
not yet
is that th verify integrity of files thing
yea, if you right click on your game on steam there's that option
@zealous cairn @elfin zephyr I've seen a lot of people having trouble with this lately. I found a recent post about it on the forums. Feel free to check and add to the post!

Been enjoying Stardew Valley co-op with both my partner, who is on the same lan, as well as friends via invite code.
However, a few days ago the invite code only appeared sometimes. Now it does not at all.
I have looked at the multiplayer guide and have:

hiiii anyone know how to uninstall old mods ahhh
people in #archived-modded-support can help you with that!
ahh sorry! thank you 😌😌

^ yeah, go to using-mods please! for that specific one, you need the one that isn't marked as OBSOLETE, there's a content patcher version that is working
Have PC people been able to join others without a problem?
Hey. My friend is having a problem where they are not getting the option to send us a game invite code for co-op. I guess some buttons/options are missing. Any idea why this might be happening or how they can fix it?
i guess a lot of people are getting this problem
Yea like I cant join ANYONE on switch and I cant see there farm and they cant see my farm I hope it gets fixed next week
We tried that
on pc I ran steam as administrator and it worked for me, but my friend was very laggy
hi
so i installed some mods
and now the windowing of the game is fuked
and there was no inv code option
so i re installed the game
no mods and stuff
the windowing is still messed
and no inv code
Multiplayer is broken for a lot of people right now
So that’s probably why you’re not getting an invite code. Had the same issue yesterday
restarted pc
I’ll post this again as it’s been a while since it got posted
Multiple people have had issues getting multiplayer to work today. Both hosting and trying to join a game (no option to join via steam or a code)
~~Potential fixes: (these are not guaranteed to work, but some people have reported that it has worked for them)
-
Try verifying the intergity of the game files. To do this, go to steam, right click on stardew valley and click on properties. From there click local files and you should see a button called "verify integrity of game files".
-
Some people have had luck using a VPN in different regions.
-
Try launching a different game that uses online and return to stardew after. Some people had luck with CS:GO and destiny, but try any game that has online. ~~
"None of these fixes worked for me"
- Don't worry. It didn't work for me either. We just have to be patient and wait for a fix 🙂
Edit: as of right now, it seems that continuously restarting your game until it decides to work is the only solution. There is no ETA on when this will be fixed, but you just have to be patient and keep trying.
"Are there any other options?"
- Yes, you can use third party programs like Hamachi or zerotier to connect via LAN. Since this is a stardew valley discord i won't be providing instructions on how to do this here, but you can probably find a tutorial on this online. Keep in mind that this is not an official solution and it's probably better to wait unless you absolutely want to play multiplayer right now
Keep in mind that you should only use hamachi if you are playing with friends you trust. do not use this to play with strangers. By doing this you are exposing yourself to a bunch of vounerabilities and essentially letting people into your home network is never a good idea.
Yeah the multiplayer stuff is broken for a lot of people
any clue why?
you can ask in #archived-modded-support just to be sure too
I find it strange since stardew MP used a peer to peer connection AFAIK. Unless there are servers I don’t know about
yes but maybe some of those affected your save somehow
ah i see. yea MP seems to be down :(
atleast windowing is fixe
Yeah MP went down yesterday, some people have managed to get it working for them, but it’s still broken for me
any remedies or clues on how to fix
seems to work for europe and america
asia is down and so are other areaas
I’m EU and it’s broken for me so idk
Is your SV modded?
Reinstall work?
hosting a LAN game will work if you're on the same network as your friend or if you're using some other program to connect to eachother (not that i recommend using a third party program to connect or anything)
so there are issues
reinstall fixed windowing but not lan issue
like the option shows up for a second then dissapears
ALSO OMFG IT WORKS WITH A VPN
what does that suggest
My invite code button disappeared
Ohh okay, tried to backread looks like everyone has the same issues.
use a vpn
then disconnect it
the code should stay
usa vpn works
so does ukraine for some reason
other doesnt for me
I has no vpn D:
Hey guys anyone here experienced hosting coop but code is not showing?
I see, guess I thought its just us
Will check! Thanks
It's working now, just have to reboot
what fixed it for you?
hmm
Me and my friend restarted the game and pc and we still have the problem e.e
yeah same here.
Have you tried verifying integrity of game files?
Not yet
Use a vpn, it worked for me
you can disconnect the vpn once the option shows up
id recommend Hotspot shield
i tried hosting a lan game, since me and my bf use the same network... doesnt work either 😦
guys do you think steam remote play *together will work?
idk how it works but sounds like steam just creates a vpn or something idk and let 2 players connect into it
If you can deal with the splitscreen steam remote play would work
oh yea....damn
It's actually not that bad since it's vertical
unless you have a really small screen
HeY COOP NOT WORKING
yes
does anyone know why is this keep prompting on macOS?
game crashes whenever we click "continue"
Unknown, it broke sometime early yesterday

How do i invite people to my coop?
A code
ik but where does my friend need to put it
Your friend needs to slecet Co-op in the main menu and join via invite code. Or you could invite through steam
How do i invite trough steam?
hey all! the game is starting up wayyy zoomed in, and I'm not sure what to do about it. I'm not able to access any of the options menus or anything using a mouse or controller. I found one thing a few days old suggesting to edit UI scale values in the save files themselves, but when I ctrl F for those it turns up nothing. any advice?
I can't seem to find "Join via Invite Code" button and I can't join through steam
Please help
yeah so multiplayer has been broken for a little bit now
you can try some of the fixes in there and see if it helps
but i have not been able to play multiplayer for a couple of days since my multiplayer doesn't work

Is multiplayer down? or is it my internet?
multiplayer is broken for a lot of people
mp is down
that is also why the join via invite code is not showing up
okay sometimes my Wifi just decides i cant play with others so i thought i would check Thanks!
ok it works now!
just had to join a server on minecraft, and then rejoin stardew valley!
does anyone know a reliable website to buy a key for Stardew valley? I tried gifting through steam but wasn't allowed due to region restrictions
lol
you can buy reliable keys at humble bundle, its a legit third party seller https://www.humblebundle.com/store/stardew-valley
thanks a lot!
please don't post random gif here, this channel is dedicated for game issues. You can post in #images-and-memes next time.
Hey, the SDV planner is not working. It says it is unsafe. is the website down or is it something else? (sorry if wrong place)
I think it would be better to mention it in #farms-and-outfits ! But it looks like website certificates have expired and the author of site will have to renew them
you can ping hpeinar#9459 in that channel and let them know!
they are the author of the site
alright, thanks (god dammit tho, i just wanted to start planning haha)
Henrik will look it up now so you know 🙂
glad it was fixed!
is dev team aware of item duplication glitch? Me and friend broke a computer at the same time and now we have 2 computers lol
So I looked through some chat history and I see there's been some issues with online as of lately, I wanted to see if I could get any more information than what I found so far.
To start, I'm using SMAPI and Content Patcher to load some visual-only mods and was using online without issues 2 days ago.
Then yesterday, I go to host online and I don't get an invite code and some buttons are missing from my multiplayer settings (I read in the wiki this can happen if stardew cannot connect to your steam account). When I launch the game purely vanilla without the SMAPI launcher, online works again.
Today I decided to research a bit further as to why online isn't working with SMAPI and Content Patcher and in following the steps on the wiki, I turned off antivirus and firewall and I see my invite code and my multiplayer buttons, which is great, but I'd rather not play with my antivirus and firewall turned off... Does anybody know what exactly could be causing this issue so I can fix it more selectively than turning off everything?
I have no mods or anything running and it's broken for me so i'm not sure tbh
are you launching SMAPI through steam?
yes, using the launch options as the instructions say
I'm actually toggling the firewall and antivirus and testing what works and what doesn't and its... actually not consistent right now
antivirus being on doesn't seem to be stopping it from working, though the firewall being on sometimes stops it
tbh it may just be whatever's up with the ongoing server issues rn
yeah, are there actually server issues going on right now? I haven't really considered that but seeing folks having issues here makes me feel less crazy haha
so confusing--yeah it looks like its working and I have both antivirus and firewall on... and I haven't changed settings on anything haha
devs are aware of this glitch and they have mentioned its unlikely to be fixed because thats just how the multiplayer works
thanks for the info anyway guys, I'll report back if I figure anything else out
how do I craft a furnace, it keeps telling me to, but I do not know how
that's a good question for #stardew-valley!
it should be in your crafting page though
Can you join someone's farm on the day of an event? I'm having a glitch on console preventing me from doing so
my friend and i are playing a MP game together, but it no longer has the invite to game button in the menu. Any idea?

Am playing local. Shouldn't it work?
I don't see why local shouldn't work
I tried to join on the day of the grange display event. Maybe that's it
hey i have a problem with smapi, when i open the game the cmd panel opens like normal but then, a few secconds before the game opens, the panel closes as if i clicked X. the game opens

ok thanks
So 11 battery packs just disappeared from one of my chests... I had no reason to use or move them anywhere yet, but just in case I checked every other chest I have everywhere and couldn’t find them. I can also confirm I didn’t sell them because they are not in my shipped items catalog yet. Does anyone know what might have caused this? It’s very frustrating, and I’m on the switch so I can’t edit the save to fix anything
Does only the host have to have the mods?
no
!mpmods
See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide#Do_mods_work_in_multiplayer.3F for details on how mods work in multiplayer. :)
^ see above! other questions about modding should go in #archived-modded-support
the option to copy the code for my world is not showing up
even though i opened it using co op
and i have an active internet connection
and when i started the game, in chat it said that it was a multiplayer game

Hey, i have a question, where is the button to invite players in stardew valley?

also look at the link directly above you, mp has been having issues
hey im having issues i have no invite button or show code button what should i do
Read up
oh damn hahaha
😛
it didnt work but but but but lets hope theres a fix soon
some people have reported changing your steam chat from online to invisible and then back to online before starting the game fixed this issue
I would recommend trying that out
The other day when a friend of mine had this problem restarting the computer helped (even though restarting steam didn't even help). Just possibly a thing to try.
yeah its a peculiar situation
I used to be able to still send invites and codes and the in midst of trying they vanished leaving only local
I was able to host properly amidst the problems once, but then its back to dead
Hey guys, is there a way to find out which secret note I just gave Eloise by accident? 😦 Anything like a console?
and/or might I get it again in the game?
since you're using mods, try #archived-modded-support!
if you havent slept yet, you could just restart the day
but I dont think a secret note counts as being obtained, and thus becomes unobtainable from then on, until you read it
Yep, they're just consumables that'll keep dropping until you have all of them. @spark galleon No big loss.
why sometimes my game crashes when a friend get into my farm?
Any of you two using mods?
nope
certainly not
this happens A LOT
7 out of 10 tries the game crashes
and i do nothing different when it works
I'm not sure if vanilla SV has crash logs, would almost suggest installing smapi to see if there's anything in there.
im dumb what is smapi
Stardew Valley modding API. The way one uses mods. It properly logs things, so it'd be easier to figure out what causes the crashes.
I might be completely offbase and SV might have logging by itself as well though.
i don’t even know how to use mods
sometimes when i log in my game as a host, i don’t have the code and can’t even invite friends
That's a steam thing
Not sure what causes that, but if restarting steam doesn't work I'd suggest rebooting your PC.
If you haven't tried that, I definitely would.
vanilla stardew valley does generate crash logs, you can find them here On Windows, press the windows key + R and enter "%appdata%/stardewvalley/errorlogs"
Ahhh, great to know. Been playing modded for far too long.
(sorry that was formatting error)
Try figuring out by dates which one the one was that has the crash in there, then.... I'm not sure if you can still use the smapio log parser, or if one should just pop it in here so people can check it out to see if there's anything apparent.
definitely the last one. it crashed twice just now
has multiplayer been fixed
What's supposedly broken?
New here. Is multiplayer down? The only thing showing up right now is a LAN game
An issue seems to have been arising that people can't find or join other people their games. Only working fix so far seems to be restarting the host's computer.
This is an issue with Steam I've seen pop up with several different games now.
Might this not work, be sure to let me know, I don't want people to be rebooting their computers for nothin.
Has this been an issue for that long? or just a reoccurring bug?
It seems to be a steam thing, so it's reared its ugly head in several multiplayer games I've played.
Awesome.
Didn't work for me :(
Well heck. Are you the host?
No but I also had the host restart
Then this is possibly another issue.
https://discordapp.com/channels/137344473976799233/337774601696313347/806420341089501215
Here is possible fixes that have worked for some people
Do not agree with suggesting Hamachi, shame that simply rebooting your PC isn't listed as well.
Not my list it's just been copy pasted so much that it's easier to link to it
But hamachi has worked for people
I'm sure it has, it's also a huge security risk. Only use Hamachi with people who you'd trust your wallet with.
Are the servers peer to peer?
There's a form of matchmaking, and there's a single host. The one who hosts the farm. The rest seems to be p2p.
I’ve seen an uptick in the amount of YouTubers and streamers playing, so maybe the high influx of players has something to do with. Similar to the problem with hosting a server in Among us.
It's definitely not server based, and I personally doubt that the matchmaking part of it is being overloaded. But it's theoretically possible, I suppose. Would sooner think the blame is Steam's API.
hi guys, so i'm not able to invite my friend to my co-op farm, is there any way i can fix this?
i don't even get the option to invite anyone
Read up, lol
o oops, tyty!
huh, i came to this discord for this exact same reason
Welcome, sorry you're having problems. x)
ok so as I understand it's probably a steam problem and if the listed solutions don't work we just wait for a fix?
Pretty much.
aight, thanks
the launch another multiplayer game, close it, then launch stardew valley worked for me

Hello everyone, I'm having the multiplayer issue where "Show Invite Code" won't show up. I've tried restarting steam, unblocked it from my firewall, restarting the router, and powercycling my computer. Does anyone else have any more advice to offer to help with this issue?
there's not much of a solution
either a problem with the steam API or the servers on stardew
Oh man... would reinstalling stardew maybe help?
or even go as far as reinstalling steam??
I tried reinstalling stardew, haven't tried reinstalling steam
Highly doubt it. It's consistent happening to a lot of people. Meaning it's likely a server issue.
multiplayer is pretty much p2p tho isn't it
There's a matchmaking server though. How do you think those invite codes work?
Ah, I see. thank you all for the help 😊
I think it just stores the invite code to ip 
That would mean the code to invite others would always be the same.
Actually, not necessarily, but I highly doubt it. Firewalls would still need to be punched through.
invite code changes every time you start a session
so i think there must be some kind of matchmaking server?
if I install mods on one user account on my computer does it install them for all?
i've also been having isssues with that code, I think the only thing to do rn is wait?
anyone know how to edit the save file? i accidently chose trapper instead of fisher
just trying to edit it to fisher
you can just change it at the dog statue in the sewers
not that far yet
only on day 17
Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.
the easiest thing to do would probably be to get SMAPI and CJB Cheats Menu, that's a much easier way to swap professions
am i able to delete cheat menu after?
yup!
I got a request from Willy to deliver a Lingcod and ever since I have only been able to fish up garbage from any and all bodies of water. Ocean, River, Ponds. its been about 3 in-game days and its all still trash. I have no mods affecting the water, fishing, characters - any idea what the issue could be? just a glitch?
in the installer window you can also google or look at the steam webpage for the link
Oh ok but maybe im on wrong channel sorry this not for mod
FYI for anyone having issues with Steam (and maybe Galaxy) multiplayer, it's possible to bypass the Steam connection by connecting to the host via a virtual LAN. The host needs to use the LAN multiplayer option, and turn on "Connect via IP". You can also open/forward the host server port on your router, if you have admin control over that, but using a user-friendly program VPN/tunneling/VLAN program like Hamachi is probably a better bet for most people.
Yeah tried forwarding my port but I didn’t get it to work. (Kinda strange since forwarding ports for my various other game servers seems to work fine
Yeah, I generally don't recommend doing that unless you're confident with troubleshooting that kinda stuff yourself
anyone know when the co-op thing is gonna be fixed?
Not 'cause it's super technical or anything, just because messing with port visibility for your router can have some bad side effects if you don't know what you're doing.
VLANs on the other hand are pretty use friendly and generally if you screw up, they just won't work
for some reason turning your steam settings to invisible and then back to visible again can work to make multiplayer work again
I tried running another game and then, while it's still open, running stardew valley and now I can enter the invite code
Ios, played the game until i my battery went 0, app crashed, and now the game can't be downloaded....
How do i fix this.
i tired that doesnt work ;/
Hey, when my friend is going in co-op and then join, there is no "enter code" button
What can i do?
@vernal falcon
I dont have experience with co op issues sorry
oki sorry for tagging
Well now he does have the enter code button but im scared it will happened again in the future
Multiplayer has been broken recently
It's off and on
Lemme get the link of possible solutions that may or may not help
So, I am missing one stardrop, according to the game, the one on lvl 100 of the mines. I have 508 energy, and have clearly received this chest. However, both SDV checkup and the perfection tracker claim that I do not have it.
have you cheated in any stardrops?
hair bug
Getting invited/accepting an invite to play co-op doesn't seem to work right now if the game isn't already open (Steam). Accepting an invite just takes you through the intro and to the main screen and then stays there.
It does work as before if the game's already running though.
Happened twice now. Not sure what the problem is.
Multiplayer is just borked right now
yup. MP is just broken
I play on android and did the secret note quest to go to scull cavern level 100. Since then my health bar is dissapeared. Any way to get it back?
Can people stop recommending ridiculous security risk programs like Hamachi?
Too bad the good old evolve shut down :/
If you're playing with IRL friends it's fine. I haven't noticed anything shady about their privacy policy, assuming there hasn't been some scandal I missed, and it's a better bet for the average user than the risks associated with tampering with port access controls on your router.
It's not about Hamachi themselves. It's about it bypassing several integrated and important security features. Anyone who has the right tools can install whatever they like on your computer when they have a Hamachi connection.
Only use it with people you 100% trust. They can literally hijack your computer without you noticing it.
And it's not just Hamachi, it's any of the virtual LAN connection programs. It's outright dangerous.
That's true. I probably should have made that point a little clearer that "letting complete strangers into your home network is a bad idea, this is mostly useful for stuff like playing with your IRL friends online"
^ Yes. Just... oof, the amount of times I've seen people rambunctiously recommend Hamachi to play with complete strangers, my skin just crawls. It's like telling people to go download music on limewire. :V (Don't do that, that's a terrible idea)
I'll still gladly recommend VLAN programs over tampering with ports for the average person though. With a VLAN, the only real danger is giving the wrong person access. With port forwarding and server controls, a novice could feasibly expose their home network to the entire internet by accident.
That's a tad bit of exaggeration, all one has to do is follow a guide. Said accident would be on the same level as posting your twitter password on your twitter account.
TBH most router admin tools I've seen are not user friendly enough that I would trust the average person to be able to follow a guide made specifically for that brand of router
portforward.com has a guide for practically every router/modem in existence tho.
Save for obscure local isp firmware.
Anyway, super offtopic. Just wanted to point out that one should only use Hamachi with people they fully trust.
evolve was great. i still miss it 😦
Multiplayer still down?
nah multiplayer is up again
hi i have not played in a while but i cant get Smapi 3.9.1 to be there and the launcher says its ready but i've tried nexus and smapi.io and it just keeps saying update smapi tp 3.9.1
If you ask in #archived-modded-support They can help you over there! It is their speciality
k thx
Hello good day.
I have installed SMAPI for a single game, and while I was playing in the SMAPI version I have entered multiplayer with mods. I have tried with a friend and he would not let him into the world. After I have eliminated SMAPI and the different mods, I have changed the route, I have done everything and it continues without letting him enter the cooperative world. What can I do so that I can get back in?
do you get an invite code when you host? Multiplayer has been really broken lately so i'm not surprised if that's the case
For sure
my game crashed when i was saving the game and it deleted my farm in the process 
!saves
Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.
is there anything in there? sounds like your file might have been corrupted, but it could still be salvageable
multiplayer is still broken i see... i hope the devs are aware of this issue at least
np, so was anything there? you might need to change some file names to fix it
https://smapi.io/log/5e157126861f42efb6417320b81c1346
what is happening heree?
#archived-modded-support please! this channel is for vanilla only
I have a weird bug, pierres shop at the winter star festival is selling the halloween rarecrow and jack 'o lanterns? This happened at the festival of ice as well
do you use any mods?
yeah, but mainly visual mods + no fence decay and better ranching
#archived-modded-support Is the place for you 😛 It's most likely a mod causing it and they can help you figure it out over there
alright, ty!
Hello everyone, I'm curious about this thing in the volcano dungeon. What can be done with it?
This is more suited for #792314345018228737 or #stardew-spoilers
where are the screenshots located?
for windows %appdata%\StardewValley\Screenshots
i have linux ;-;
ah, try ~/.local/share/StardewValley/Screenshots then!
Hey there everyone. Sometimes i cannot enter a invite code and when im hosting i cannot invite anyone (nor see the code). Can someone help me with this problem?

ty
Ok
go back to the epic folder
I’m there
copy those files and in the "Saves" folder create a folder named Epic
Do I create a new folder ?
Done
Done
Everytime I try opening a file it kept asking “how do you want to open this file”
dont open them
if that appears the how do you want to open this file click somewhere else and it will dissapear
i did
ok
It disappeared
hmmmmm
no no no wait
I was only on days 11 anyways, not that long
i want to check something
hm?
wait there ima search something
oki
(if you're trying to fix a save, the name of the folder needs to be the exact same as the name of the save, including the underscore and numbers!)
thanks for the tip, i really appreciate it !
np! sorry, i only saw part of the convo so i'm not sure what exactly you guys are doing, but that may be why it's not coming up
ok @smoky shuttle i think i know we can do
Hm?
i found what the error was
do you have the 2 files that i told you to move to the desktop ?
ok, move them into the old epic folder
YES!
we need all the files we moved into the folder
they are all in 1 folder
The previous one?
are u talking about this folder?
no im talking about the Epic_[numbers]
you may also want to disable cloud saves in steam so it doesn't keep happening, apparently steam can get overexcited
yep
!saves
Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.
there are instructions here!
i have a cut of what he needs to do
but first ima restablish all to the original form
i'll leave y'all to it then!
Thank you a lot for you contribution ! 
like this?
wait a min
delete the "the" in the epic old savefile
also where is the epic savefile without the "_old" ?
we need it again in that folder
Idk what happened to that file; as i was adding it to my desktop, it auto change to "old"
idk if that makes sense
That doesn't happen
lemme go see my trash folder
there is supposed to be 2 Epic's savefiles
Either way, if you rename the thing and remove the _old, you'll have lost a day but still have your save. Just in case. Also a short reminder to never delete anything when messing with save files.
yes
send screenshot of the entire folder when you have done this
yes
uh, sorry; im actually pretty new to stream so idk if i have it activated or not
hmmmm
Right click on the game in steam, click properties, untap the STEAM CLOUD part. (Third box)
thanks for helping me with this, my 2gb ram would suffer loading steam for sending an screenshot of this
That's not a lot of ram bud.
yes, sorry
im trying to look for it
im clicking right on the game
but these kept showing up
go into properties
wait
I got it
i think that is another POV that you can set up for games in steam, you can order them in different ways
not just the classic list we all know i think
i untapped it
Your turn again, Younan. x)

I’m there
After you have gone in the epic folder rename the "SaveGameInfo" that has "_STARDEWVALLEYSAVETMP" and delete the "_STARDEWVALLEYSAVETMP" from the name
after that start your game and your saved game should appear
did it work ?
oMGGG TYSSSSSSMMMMMMM

YOU'RE a life saver omgomg tysm
ty to Malibloo and the other person that helped too!

have a good game
thank u!
oh also @smoky shuttle delete the Epic folder we created in the folder "Saves"
because that is useless now

Hey, i'm having an issue with multiplayer. when i start a co-op game i go to settings and under the multiplayer section there should be a "show invite code" button and an "invite" button, but they are no where to be found. (ive tried resetting the game, i do have mods)
!mphelp
See this page for connection issues in multiplayer: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer. (Applies to both vanilla and modded games; console players just check as many steps as you can!)
is this the answer?
i’m also having the same issues unsure if it’s an actual problem but you’re not alone
it might be a glitch, im checking the above wiki
there have been a lot of issues with multiplayer in the last few days, yeah
try closing and relaunching game it showed with that!
some people have reported that launching another multiplayer game through steam, closing and reopening worked for them
i tried that
some more possible solutions: https://discordapp.com/channels/137344473976799233/337774601696313347/806420341089501215
imma try restarting my computer
was wondering what was going on, yeah the invite code button is gone
one more potential solution is to change your steam chat status from online to invisible and then back to online before opening the game
there seems to be some sort of issue with the steam chat(/status) which is causing this
OHHHH you know what that makes a lot of sense, the steam chat window sometimes doesn't load for me even when steam does and when that happens i have trouble with MP
I'm trying to take the achievement of the community center using the cbj because in my main farm I didn't win the cinquista in steam for having completed and I want to know what I need to do to make the achievement appear in the game so I can unlock
you can't force achievements with CJB cheats menu, but you can use debug commands! #archived-modded-support can help with that
How close are we to 1.5 on console? Me and my sister wanna play split screen together but doing that on my pc sounds miserable lol
last time we heard it was sent for certifications, this was 12 days ago https://twitter.com/ConcernedApe/status/1352781178307190785
Console players: the update is being submitted to certification today. That can take a variable amount of time so I can't make any guarantee about release date. I still feel that my original estimate of late this month or early next month is likely, though.
1977
29896
So any day now I guess?
honestly, I dont think anyone can say for certain
it can be any day or take weeks
why dont you just plug a controller in your pc and play splitscreen ?
I can't seem to launch my game on pc and I've verified the files and tried uninstalling and reinstalling
My pc isn’t in the greatest place for that and I really only have one controller I can plug into it
any error message box appears ?
oh ok
have you checked task manager when you start the game to see if it tries to load the exe ? @mossy onyx
Thank you, good to know
it doesn't seem to be popping up on task manager
the %appdata% one or local files?
the one where all the game content is stored in
basically steamapps/common/Stardew Valley
you know
yeah
still will not run :(
never installed mods
no?
it has only the saves folder
just a saves folder
hmmm
!reinstalldeps
Try reinstalling .NET Framework 4.5.2 and XNA Framework 4.0 (see https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_doesn.27t_launch for links).
here you could try some of the solutions this website implys, ima just Screenshot em for you
Btw, Aspiring, what games have you played before? im asking this so i can tell you if you had NET Framework installed or XNA
Dead by daylight, monster hunter, the forest, code vein.
side note i dont have the "_CommonRedist" file
oh ok
try installing the .NET Framework 4.5.2 and XNA Framework 4.0 from the link that @mighty kettle bot mentioned
So I can’t connect to my brothers multiplayer game anymore neither can his other two friends
are you missing the "join via steam or copy code" options
:p beat me to it
that's been an issue a lot this week, do any of these fixes work for you? or this #vanilla-tech-support message
I have been having trouble joining my friends game. I can normally join with no problems, however he is busy and hidden now on Steam. Does Hidden stop people from joining your game even with an invite?
both of you, please look at the links right above you :)
Lol just realized that
thanks
Hey, I'm using SMAPI 3.9 and stardew 1.5, and trying split screen (local) co-op. We've plugged in switch controllers to my laptop, but the game thinks that they're supposed to control P1, so pressing the button that normally joins a new player instead just cancels the "press button to join" screen. I've tested both with mods installed, and with no mods, so I think it's something with SMAPI itself, not any particular mod, since I don't have the problem running the game vanilla. It does work using non-local co-op, but we like playing split-screen.
Any suggestions?
hey, since you're using mods #archived-modded-support is the place! especially since it works in vanilla
Ok, I tried asking a few hours ago and didn't get a response there, I figured it would be better to try a different channel than say the same thing again there. Sorry if it is off-topic here, I'll ask again in the other channel
nah, it's probably that no one who knew how to help was online! it's fine to repost your question if it gets missed
Mp still fucked?
yep, seems like
apparently turning chat from invisible back to on sometimes fixes it?
^thats what i did
can anyone help me? whenever i try to launch the game on steam it wont launch and i dont know what to do about it
have you used mods in the past?
how do I get my homie to join our realm again
read a few messages up, MP has been weird lately
So um, I have a PowerA Switch controller I am using with the pc version. It worked seemingly fine in 1.4. Now it's not at all.
did you try disconnecting and reconnecting?
....
Yes
And starting the game with the controller plugged in
The controller was also plugged in when I started my computer
hmm what if you start the game without controller plugged out first,then exit gamr and plug it in again and start game?
Nope
Didn't work
damn then idk what will work


my heart has been shattered
