#vanilla-tech-support message

[past lodge]

oooh it's spreading

[short sequoia]

I found some posts stating it might have to do with the wizard. I was playing local coop but I doubt my gf talked to him.

[past lodge]

I wasn't playing coop so no I don't think that's it

I even created two farms and both of them had the bug

[short sequoia]

Oh, from the get go? Maybe SMAPI by itself might be at fault and corrupted the save file somehow?

[past lodge]

That was my guess, but even after I reinstalled the game?

[short sequoia]

I didn't try do a complete reset of the folder with steam yet, but I just started with the normal game exe again

[past lodge]

Not only that, I also uninstalled SMAPI

[short sequoia]

So either it might be some remnant files or the save files, which I kinda suspect in this case

[past lodge]

let me try some things

I haven't cleared the Joja Bundle yet on my oldest save, let me see if it is okay

then I'll try the special bundles or whatever name they have

The Missing Bundle is intact 👌

[short sequoia]

What did you do?

[past lodge]

About what?

I mean the bundle you can find at the destroyed Joja store

I didn't finish it so I went there to check if it was intact

[past lodge]

@short sequoia check this out

When I changed the bundles to Mixed on the farm creation, they are now back to normal

wrong screenshot lol

I'm inclined to believe that this bug is related to the Mixed Bundles option.

[short sequoia]

Okay interesting... Not sure when I changed that option tho

Is "mixed" the default?

[granite stream]

no

default is the default

[shrewd wasp]

The game won't start for me, I have tried SMAPI since someone said it gives you error logs and it says that's there's something wrong with the XNA Framework. I have installed and uninstalled XNA multiple times, same thing with other runtimes... Kinda out of ideas of what I can do anymore.

[ebon narwhal]

Nope, although one of the people (not the host) was.

He said it was just texture mods, but somehow he knew when some of these weird bugs were about to happen.

[compact kraken]

Where did you install XNA from? Another person mentioned that installing the C++ distributable and even DirectX might also fix it.

[shrewd wasp]

I have DirectX installed, also most of the C++ redistributables.

[compact kraken]

Pardon, meant reinstalling them.

[shrewd wasp]

do i really need to reinstall every single C++ redistrubutable

like I said that on the SMAPI error logs it said something on the lines of "Could not load file or assembly "Microsoft.Xna.Framework.dll"
So I automatically thought it must be something wrong with that.

[compact kraken]

No, it sadly said it it couldn't load that file OR one of its dependencies. Meaning the problem could lie with anything that XNA uses as well.

Which is a lot.

So far I've seen the problem lie in 8 different dll's.

9/10 times it was because the dll was 64bit instead of 32bit, which is caused by either a faulty windows installation (due to registries being wrong/outdated) or a faulty installation of any of said dependencies. Trying to figure out the direct cause has been challenging each and every time.
Thankfully most of the time the issue was just the XNA installation. Often fixed by uninstalling and reinstalling XNA from here: https://filehippo.com/download_microsoft_xna_framework_redistributable/
Haven't seen any other XNA install work so far.

[compact kraken]

If you've already tried reinstalling most redistributables I could help you use Dependencies to see what might be missing.

[shrewd wasp]

I have installed that exact XNA installation, so I guess I'll try reinstalling the C++ redistrubutable and I guess DirectX... If that doesn't work I'm lost then. Thanks.

[past lodge]

no

but the Mixed is the Default now apparently

[hexed apex]

Hello, uhm, i have a few questions. What are the files in my memory, from the game? So why do I need them, and are they important?

[short sequoia]

Is this a "how do computers work" question?

[hexed apex]

Uhm, i think no?

[short sequoia]

You mean why the game files get loaded into RAM?

[hexed apex]

Yes.

Are they important? why do I need them?

[short sequoia]

The RAM is ALOT faster than your hard drive for accessing data

It's basically for temporarily needed data but when fast access is required

[compact kraken]

Files get loaded into RAM when they need to be used as fast as possible, think anything graphical in the game, or how things work, etc.

[short sequoia]

Those files contain code (instructions for your computer on what to do) and resources (images, audio, etc.)

[compact kraken]

Usually everything you see on screen comes from RAM. If you'd load it directly from the hard drive each and every frame that needs to be drawn you'd have a very slow game.

[short sequoia]

Yeah a normal hard drive "access" (getting a single piece of information) can take like 50ms or more

A frame on 60 FPS is 16.6ms long

Wheras an access on memory (RAM) is usually microseconds

[hexed apex]

Okay, a lot of informations. Thank u very much! <3

This isn't exactly "game support" but I didn't know where else to put this. This error keeps popping up whenever I try to access certain pages on the wiki like the page for squid. Any ideas? Because it's been saying this since yesterday.

[compact kraken]

That's been happening a while now. You can try finding the same pages on the old wiki https://stardewcommunitywiki.com/

[hexed apex]

Yeah that works pefectly! Thanks! Now I can figure out where to grab some squid!

[compact kraken]

Other than that, I'm sure they're aware of the issue and trying to fix it.

#archived-modded-support

[native moon]

so i mentioned this a bit ago but im not sure what the fix is, a few issues with my save as im trying to reach perfection: ||it says i need walnuts still from barrels in the mines, but i've gotten the max i'm pretty sure and also it says i need glass shards which i have already found and donated to the museum||

any way to get around this?

[compact kraken]

Are you on PC?

[native moon]

yep

but mac

[compact kraken]

I'd suggest using the checkup. https://mouseypounds.github.io/stardew-checkup/ To see which you're missing, and if yoursave might be broke.

[native moon]

thats what i used

[mighty kettle]

@native moon You leveled up to Farmer. You're now a prettier shade of blue. Thanks for sticking around!

[native moon]

to see what i needed

[compact kraken]

Well, unless it specified an error, that's what you still need.

[native moon]

where does it show errors?

[exotic stump]

When I try fullscreen the resolution isn't right and I can only see a small part of the game can someone help?

[compact kraken]

What's your monitor size (resolution)?

[native moon]

maybe the glass shards is a multiplayer thing? it was a multiplayer save so many he donated them to the museum but i have some in my inventory too

so thats gotta be wrong

and stardew checkup says i still need it

[exotic stump]

I'm using my tv it's 4k

[compact kraken]

Respectfully, the checkup shows what the save says, so if it says something is the case, it simply is, regardless if it might've happened due to a bug. As for where the error is... I've been trying to find a screenshot, but have not been successful, it should be somewhere near the top as soon you load in your save. Might even be in red letters, hard to miss.

[compact kraken]

In that case, try removing startup_preferences in %appdata%/StardewValley

[exotic stump]

Ok, I tried max resolution lol I can see like 5 screens on every direction now

Lemme try that

[native moon]

so even if it is a bug i cant fix it

[exotic stump]

Ty

[compact kraken]

Of course, if it's a bug, you can edit the save file. Given it is a bug, but so far I haven't heard any reason why it might be. Like I said, the checkup has some internal checks to see what should and shouldn't be possible on a save, if you're missing out on a walnut from a specific place (especially random drops) then you should still be able to get it.

[native moon]

the glass shards thing has gotta be straight up wrong unless...somehow? the other person in multiplayer found it and donated it and not me so it says i havent donated? but i dont think how thats how the museum works in multiplayer

[compact kraken]

Well that does sound like it's bugged then, sorry, thought we were still talking about the walnuts.

[native moon]

and when it talks about Breaking Volcano "Barrels" does it mean those metal chests that the robots come out of?

[compact kraken]

Yep

[native moon]

i swear ive broken a hundred of those and gotten no new walnuts

can i fix the glass shards bug?

[exotic stump]

Damn I tried changing the resolution in game and now it's black screen even if I restart, can I change resolution outside of game? I am using mods

[compact kraken]

You can open up the file I mentioned before in a text editor. Then look for the <X/Yresolution> tag, or somethig similar.

[exotic stump]

K lemme try to find it I couldn't find it

Thx for help

[native moon]

if you use cjb spawner does it count as you "finding" things?

[exotic stump]

I can't find %appdata%

[compact kraken]

Seeing you have to donate it, unlikely.

[compact kraken]

Just copy paste that into your file explorer, presuming you're on Windows

[exotic stump]

Damn nothing, v sync was causing stuttering when the screen was moving I was trying to fix it that's how I got into this mess

Guess I'll reinstall

[compact kraken]

Alternatively, manually go to C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\StardewValley

[hollow forge]

Hey, is there any way to clone a save file

For 2 seperate versions of it?

[compact kraken]

I'm having a hard time figuring out what should be changed to fix the glass shards thing, mind sending me your save so I can cross-reference?

!saves @hollow forge

[mighty kettle]

@hollow forge Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.

[compact kraken]

There should be a part in there somewhere explaining exactly that ^

[hollow forge]

Thank you :D

[native moon]

yep im in game rn let me go home and sleep and close the game one sec

[exotic stump]

Ok got it working now thx malibloo

Now is there anyway to get rid of screen stuttering while I'm walking? Tried disabling v sync but it's still problems

[native moon]

why does it say...."not found" only? instead of "not found or donated" which means i donated it but havent found it? doesnt make sense

if i find it, i donate it

its in the museum

[compact kraken]

Also says you didn't find but donated the ornamental fan?

[native moon]

huh

havent thought about the fan but ig yes too

[compact kraken]

So has this been a game where it was MP once, and your friend donated things, then later on your removed your friend from the game?

[native moon]

yes

[compact kraken]

Then you just need to find the shard/fan again, not a bug then sadly.

[hexed apex]

Is there a section on this server for advice on the game?

[native moon]

so weird i have the shards in my chest....maybe he put them there....

thanks man

[compact kraken]

Depending on how far you are in the game #stardew-spoilers or #stardew-valley or if it has to do with the update #stardew-valley. That's all for ingame help though, if you need technical help this is the place.

[native moon]

either #stardew-valley or #stardew-spoilers depending on your skill level / progress in the game

i swear ive broken like 50 barrels at least smh

sucks

[compact kraken]

Thing is, I don't think it'll show it as collected if you just grab it from a chest, you need to re-find it from an artifact spot or something.

[hexed apex]

Well I have multiple save game files though

[native moon]

yeah he must have found two and put one in a chest and i thought i found it

dummy dumb

[compact kraken]

It depends on the question then?

[hexed apex]

Ok, so in one file I saved the community center and in another it’s the joja warehouse, which file has the better decision. I know for the community center it makes pierre’s shop open on Wednesday, but for the joja warehouse the community projects pretty much save time from going from one place to another

Repairing the community center was tedious

[compact kraken]

I feel like that's entirely subjective, but definitely a question for ...I think #stardew-spoilers ? Definitely not a technical question.

[supple vortex]

Hello yall :) me and my girlfriend have a coop save we played together on (on one laptop), but now that we really seem to love the game, she is considering buying the game herself so we can play both on our seperate laptops.

Hi, so i have Stardew Valley downloaded through steam. recently it has just stopped opening. It will show the game as running and then just disappear and then the "play" button will reappear again.

[olive root]

In short; The game file won't actually open when launched through steam. We've tried re-installing Steam, the game, running both applications in admin mode and verifying the integrity of the game files. We haven't played around with any files yet.

[grizzled trellis]

so if she is able to join the game

it'll crash within a minute if she's even able to pick her character

Any mods?

[lavish umbra]

no mods

[compact kraken]

Does the macos version also use steam?

[grizzled trellis]

yes

[worthy lake]

Heh

[worthy lake]

So this is because steam mp servers are having issues and that's what stardew uses. So really you either have to keep trying or wait until steam gets ahold of this situation

[hot adder]

I have bluetooth earbuds and when I play on my phone, the sound (on the game) will cut out randomly. It only happens with the game, not with any other app so I don't think it's my earbuds or phone.

Never had such issues myself.

[mighty kettle]

For connection issues in multiplayer see the pinned post in #vanilla-tech-support (<#vanilla-tech-support message>) and also the wiki troubleshooting page (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer).

[unique pawn]

ive restarted the game and steam and i'm still not getting and invite code option

for the host or to join

[halcyon crescent]

Sorry I didnt face that issue when I was playing for the first 200 hours but now it is broken you can see a lot of comments similar

[halcyon crescent]

I have experienced the very same thing restarting steam and the game for numerous times might work

[unique pawn]

ive done it quite a few times

[worthy lake]

Are you using steam?

[halcyon crescent]

that solved my case but there is not much to do except useless 'restart your modem' solutions

[unique pawn]

yes

[worthy lake]

Steam mp servers are probably having lots of trouble right now then

[halcyon crescent]

steam mp servers handling lots of games, we play other mp games stable

its very strange

[unique pawn]

it's been happening since last night. i also just got the game last night. not sure if thats relevant but

[compact kraken]

It'snot strange at all, it's simply a thing that's happening with the steam servers. Other games likely have additional checks built in, or use the API in a different way. Not every game is the same.

[halcyon crescent]

yeah then thats not the server's issue isn't it?

[unique pawn]

what should i do then?

[worthy lake]

Well, you really can't do anything about it

[unique pawn]

i mean

alright

[worthy lake]

You can try to keep restarting/wait a few hours, but CA has said that he can't do anything (well he can put in checks but)

[compact kraken]

Yes, it still is. The issue lies entirely on the server. However, that doesn't mean there's no workarounds. The thing people are doing now is simply restarting the game. If the game instead could check for a connection and retry itself without needing to restart, then that could be a solution.
Heck, maybe someone could make a mod for it.

[halcyon crescent]

My problem isn't that actually (my problem is I am getting disconnected from server, I see my friend interacting the world but I cannot open chests, or collect things before quitting and relogging the game although my internet is pretty stable), but my main concern is, ignoring problems is not gonna solve anything and the issue exists with or without you experiencing it.

[compact kraken]

We're not ignoring it, we're trying to save everyone's time by simply telling them that said matchmaking issue's solution is simply restarting until it works. As opposed to having them waste hours restarting their modem, their computer, steam, reinstalling the game, etc.
As for your problem specifically, it sounds like bad internet or massive packet loss. Not a game problem.

I guess it could also possibly be a bad mod. But if you're not using mods that's out of the picture.

[halcyon crescent]

You commented on my problem 'Never had such issues myself.' therefore it is kinda ignoring. There is no bad internet or massive packet loss in my internet anyway I play a lot of multiplayer games and use my internet pretty much errorles in any case.

I am not using any mods yeah

[compact kraken]

Well then maybe there's bad internet or massive packet loss on their side.

[worthy lake]

We could just link the reply from CA that says that he can't really do anything

[compact kraken]

Either way your issue sounds like a lag issue, of which we can only suggest so many things, because it has very little to do with the game.

Nah Shiny, they have a different issue. They're just lagging, they can connect.

[worthy lake]

Yeah true

[halcyon crescent]

If it is from internet is it normal that I see my friends actions real time? Isn't it supposed to freeze or be laggy?

[compact kraken]

If you can download their actions, but you can't upload yours it sounds like possibly an issue with their download speed. Or maybe there's specific packet loss? That's the magic of networking. It could have a ridiculous amount of reasons. The fact that you can connect and see things happening means the game seems to be functioning.

[halcyon crescent]

I don't know I can stream 720p twitch, it is strange for me in this context

this is all it's giving me. if anyone knows how to diagnose this I would appreciate it

[timid talon]

hey I factory restted my game but I backed up my old files. It won't load, I checked Concerned Ape's threat and I'm up to the part where it says Corrupt Save File

What would I do from here?

I don't really understand what it means by replacing it with one from another character

[peak osprey]

the file you're looking at in the screenshot is your save file, the one CA's thread mentions is theSaveGameInfo file

[timid talon]

ah

[peak osprey]

the save looks fine and uncorrupted to me, do you have it in a folder named Bread_268952869 with a corresponding file named SaveGameInfo?

[timid talon]

Yeah, I do

This, right?

[peak osprey]

yes! and the folder is named the same as the save?

[timid talon]

[peak osprey]

okay, try deleting SaveGameInfo and renaming SaveGameInfo_old to SaveGameInfo

[timid talon]

alright, then what next?

just reload normally?

[peak osprey]

[timid talon]

for some reason it loaded into 1.5.2 and nothing happened

I was using SMAPI so I'm not sure if that was the case

rip the file still isn't there

have you updated the game and SMAPI?

and since you are using smapi

!log

[mighty kettle]

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

oh wait I was looking at a different folder, that's why it loaded into 1.5.2

but I still don't see the character when I load in, though?

[little turtle]

I could also post my core dump but idk if it would be useful to anybody but the developer since all the debug symbols are gone. I could also download an older version maybe with that steam downloader tool I forgot the name of.

is there a way to run the game (stardew) using my own version of mono since I am worried that the issue might be with the one bundled with the executable file?

[worthy lake]

[mighty iron]

I've been playing multiplayer for the first time and ran into an unexpected issue with horses.

I purchased the first stable, and then my friend ended up being the one to name the horse. This registered the horse as hers (unfortunately). We wanted a horse for each of us so we built a second stable, and she was the one who ordered it from robin. Once that was finished, however, neither of us were able to name the horse (she was the first to try, and I tried afterwards). So now we have two horses: one that is registered to her character, and one spare one that I am unable to claim.

It seems like a really weird issue, and I don't know how to fix it. Does anyone know anything about this or how we might be able to fix it? I'm really hoping we don't have to buy another stable, but I can't think of any other ideas. I also want to make sure I know what caused this problem so we can avoid it if we do have to buy again... :<

(Note: we are playing on PC with no mods, and with the shared wallet multiplayer option, in case that makes a difference)

hmmm i see. ty for the link

[little turtle]

for the record it's definitely something gone wrong on my system since I tried downpatching to a version I know for fact used to work and no luck but idk where to even start with finding out what could have gone wrong

but idk how to even start on figuring out what. the debug logs are uninformative. the game doesn't have any debug symbols and the only files it's linked to directly are standard gcc libs. libdl does let it load arbitrary library files including anything it wants to though.

oh shit I solved it with strace

if ulimit -n is set above 2097152 the game will crash

this is very weird and specific and I've never seen anything like it before

I have no idea why it happens and I almost wanna bug Ethan Lee/flibitijibibo about it

since I think it's using fna on linux and I think he maintains fna

(unless xna has a linux port idk)

that said it doesn't happen in celeste or carrion and those are the only other fna games I own and I've honestly never heard of a game crashing because ulimit -n was too high before

[worthy lake]

It doesn't help at all but my steam controller works perfectly fine with stardew

[wet sphinx]

mine did as well before i downloaded the update

[little turtle]

doesn't happen with owlboy either

idk it's the most minor issue in the world but it's really weird to me that it only happens on this game when it's almost certainly an engine level bug

[orchid storm]

Is this the channel where we can report bugs?

[granite stream]

!officialbug

[mighty kettle]

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 [e-mail]

[orchid storm]

Oh thanks

[worthy lake]

Probably a better question for #stardew-spoilers or #town-square

[lunar tendon]

Ok ty

[granite stream]

sdv doesn't really have those sorta things

[lunar tendon]

Oh ok I had just wondered ty

[rugged hinge]

Hey guys, for the life of me I cannot get Stardew to launch. I've tried basically everything I can find online. From re-downloading XNA to attempting to find the faulty dependable. Would love some help with this. Right now, I think the best lead is that I figured out that x3daudio1_7.dll cannot be found, when using a copy of "depends.exe"

No idea if that helps. I reached my limit of computer knowledge a while ago.

[compact kraken]

Tried copying said dll from another computer?
Alternatively, have you tried reinstalling/repairing DirectX?

[rugged hinge]

I have tried reinstalling/repairing DirectX yes. I'll look into the dll rn.

[rugged hinge]

Okay so I have x3daudio1_7.dll, as well as 0-6. For both Sys 32 and SysWOW64. Im not sure why depends.exe was saying I didn't.

I'm kind of blown away nothing has fixed this yet, but then again I'm at the point where I have no idea what I'm doing.

Ok so swapping all the x3daudio1_x.dll's over from my laptop worked. @compact kraken You're a king I've been struggling with this for a minute now.

[compact kraken]

As information. The most likely scenario is that your x3daudio1_7.dll was a 64-bit dll, while you needed a 32-bit dll. You copied over the correct 32-bit dll from your laptop and fixed it.
The reason the installer/repair didn't do anything is because it likely thought everything was fine with the 64-bit dll, despite being the wrong one.

This has somehow been a very common problem with some dll's that have to do with the XNA framework, and I have no way of knowing what the actual cause is. Either faulty installers or a bad windows update.

[rugged hinge]

Well I appreciate the help!

[ripe vale]

I did the Mysterious Mr. Qi quest on a friend's online co-op but I don't have the club card. The bouncer's gone and any time I try to go upstairs to the casino it just teleports me back to the bottom again

Meaning I can't get the last rarecrow to get the deluxe scarecrow recipe :/

[void coyote]

There's a linus version?

[worthy lake]

Yeah, steam version works on linux

[compact kraken]

What's the last part of the quest you did?

[ripe vale]

getting the club card from the logs beside the main farmhouse

The quest is marked complete but that card isn't in my wallet

My friend who's hosting the game has it and can go in just fine

[granite stream]

did you do that or your friend?

[ripe vale]

we each got an instance of the Mysterious Mr. Qi quest, so both of us did it, but my friend did it before me

[compact kraken]

But you both did all the steps?

[ripe vale]

yep

the shell, the beets, the sand dragon, and the lumber pile

[compact kraken]

Well, if there's no quest in your log, you've tried getting the card and/or starting the quest again, then I'd suggest spawning it in with CJB cheat or something.

[ripe vale]

I don't know if that'd be possible in this case, we're on the Switch version

[compact kraken]

....o

I'm afraid you're going to have to get your friend to do all the gambling then. :I

[worthy lake]

You should still get the recipe, can confirm that part

[compact kraken]

Oh yeah, for the rarecrow you just need to have had it? Or have it on the farm?

[ripe vale]

I'm pretty sure you need to have purchased it for it to count

I have at one point had all 8 in my inventory and I never got the recipe

ergo, I'm locked out from 100 percent completion

[worthy lake]

Nope, split screen on switch with my s/o and I was the one that got it from gambling and we both got the recipe

In fact she probably got half of them and I got the other half

I do think they have to be placed though

[compact kraken]

1.5: Fixed bug where recipe letter would not be sent if there wasn't at least 1 of each rarecrow somewhere on the farm.

[ripe vale]

Did you both get it the very next day after you got all 8?

My friend got it immediately the next day but my mailbox has been empty

[worthy lake]

We both did

What you could try is if you still have them all, break them and then you place them all down. That might trigger it

[ripe vale]

I tried that, didn't get a letter.

And I did verify all 8 on the wiki

[worthy lake]

[compact kraken]

I'm afraid some bugs simply can't be fixed without having access to the save file directly. :C

[ruby narwhal]

If i transfer my save from android to PC, will 1.5 corrupt the save file?

[hexed apex]

How to Transfer? @ruby narwhal

[ruby narwhal]

sorry i havent figured that out yet lol. i just found out about it.

[worthy lake]

It shouldn't corrupt the save file but you wouldn't be able to bring it back to mobile I think

!saves

[mighty kettle]

Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.

[worthy lake]

That should tell you how

[hexed apex]

thx

[ruby narwhal]

ah i was worried about that, i was hoping to switch back and forth...ill have a look.
thanks

[worthy lake]

Yeah if you are wanting to switch back and forth you'd have to wait until 1.5 comes for mobile

[hexed apex]

mhm

[ruby narwhal]

is there a way to switch back to 1.4 on steam?

[hexed apex]

maybe aptoide

[compact kraken]

As in your save file, or reverting the version?

[vital kraken]

@finite delta sorry for the ping, but i wanted to suggest one small addition for the next update. The ability to build docks/bridges on your farm. Somewhat simple, but it would help out SOOOO much.

[worthy lake]

This is something you'd put on the forums. Not ping a dev about

[vital kraken]

[craggy marlin]

Hi guys. I am having a very odd problem with my game and I have no clue how to go about fixing it. Since the first SDV update of this year, my main save file has been acting oddly. I am unsure if it is corrupted or what, but the issue doesn't only occur when running smapi, it also happens when I run the normal game through Steam. My game file straight up won't load and the game will instead just exit out. When I run smapi, the game just restarts over and over and won't open the game file.

Here's my log from the last time I ran it with smapi and no mods: https://smapi.io/log/a9623bcfe7684670b1fb69e715b213e8

[peak osprey]

your problem is trying to run a save made with SVE with no mods

[craggy marlin]

But even when I have mods enabled, it doesn't work. And when I run it through steam without smapi, the game still doesn't run.

[compact kraken]

Well I'd suggest installing SVE and looking at the log again.

[hexed apex]

Is there any possible way to edit your settings of your farm after you create it? It would be nice if this is possible because i want to add a bit of a challenge to my current farm as it is getting a bit to easy. E.g whilst already in a farm you can change the amount of money you can earn, separate wallets, monsters can spawn and etc. If there isn't it would be a cool feature to add. Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me ♥️ . (ping me if you can respond)

[compact kraken]

You can already separate wallets in Lewis' house and you can add danger to your farm through the witch's place. I'm heading to bed soon, but if no one else has a direct solution I could start a few new games tomorrow, crossreference the save files to see if I can change the money earning setting through save editing.
The idea of adding this as a feature is a bit self-defeating, seeing you could earn big bucks, then suddenly not want to earn much anymore? Wouldn't make much sense gameplay-wise. I can understand wanting to change it early game and not wanting to restart though.
Btw, everything's a given that you are not on console, as you can't edit your save there.

[naive night]

I think my games glitching. I'm doing a Co-op game and my friend became roomates with krobus but then he dropped down to 0 hearts and married another npc but still krobus won't move out making it so I can't get the dark tailisman quest

[peak osprey]

ohhhh i've seen this bug before! your friend divorced krobus and he's still stuck in the house, right?

do they have an upgraded house? the last time i saw the bug, the person only had the kitchen upgrade, not the nursery one, so krobus was standing in the void outside of the house

Are the special order blueprints supposed to be automatic? I opened up the mail but didn't get anything...

[tame ruin]

Yeah so this happened and it just sits like that

So yeah I don't know what to do

[frail gorge]

If you run your game via SMAPI, do you see any errors on the SMAPI console window?

[tame ruin]

Ah lemme try that

Nothing

[torn sedge]

@tame ruin Can you try the fix here: https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/partial-screen-on-start-up.132721/

aka. go to %AppData%\Roaming\StardewValley , make a copy of file "startup_preferences", rename it "startup_preferences_1" or sth and delete the original file

[tame ruin]

I actually just found a fix

Just alt enter twice

That seems to have solved it permanently

God how did I mispell that

[torn sedge]

Oh

when you open the game and get part of the screen, hit ALT+Enter. That will make it windowed and then do ALT+Enter or the sqaure in the top corner and it's back to fullscreen.

well, if it works for you after closing & opening the game again, then that's fine i guess

[frail gorge]

I wouldn't have thought that a resolution issue would freeze your game! But I'm glad it worked

how do i join steam

[worthy lake]

I've never seen or heard of this

[echo horizon]

If i put a tomato in a preserver jar how much will it raise its sell price?

[worthy lake]

Base sell value of normal starred item x2 +50

[echo horizon]

That's the part i don't understand

That's why i'm asking here :/

Is it just literally normal math?

[worthy lake]

Yep, (60 x 2) +50

[echo horizon]

The result was 182 gold but if you do check on the wiki it says its 170 gold

[worthy lake]

Will be more with the profession that increases artisan good prices

[echo horizon]

Then what about quality?

[worthy lake]

Quality doesn't matter

It uses the price of a non starred item

"Quality of ingredients makes no difference to the finished product. The value of the finished product is determined using the base value (i.e., with no silver or gold star) of the item. However, the preserved version is always more profitable than even gold star produce, although the profit margin is lower compared to normal produce." via wiki

[worthy lake]

You shouldn't need to stack them

I've put in different qualities be fore

You should just be able to put in 4 then 4 then 2

[echo horizon]

Yeah

I did that before too

It should also work normal to you if your sdv is 1.5 or higher

@sick dagger you're on mobile

Mobile hasn't released a 1.5 update yet

[compact kraken]

Are you watering them on the day of planting? Also keep in mind that they don't grow on the day of planting, just overnight to the next day, in case you're including day 1 in your math.

Got an example of which crop and when you expected it to be done?

Nope. It takes 12 days. Day 1 + 12 = 13th.

Day 1 is planting. Day 2 is first day of growth.

How do I get the dark talisman quest? I got the cutscene (I skipped it) but didn't immediately go to krobus because i didn't know about the quest cause i skipped it but now I can't seem to get krobus to open the door. I talk to him and it just has his normal dialogue

Anyone know a fix?

[compact kraken]

What's the last thing you did with the quest? Do you still have a quest in your quest list?

[naive night]

No it didn't drop from the cutscene

Maybe because I skipped it?

[compact kraken]

What didn't? You're supposed to go into the mutant bug lair.

[naive night]

The quest

[compact kraken]

You get the quest from the Wizard though?

[naive night]

which one

[compact kraken]

The one where you have to pick up the dark talisman?

[naive night]

The one to talk to krobus didnt drop from the cutscene

nothing did

[compact kraken]

Because the Wizard asks you to get something from his ex-wife's house?

Nothing drops from the cutscene at all though?

[naive night]

Yes

I skipped it but it was at the bathhouse with wizard

[compact kraken]

Again, there's nothing that should've been dropped. You get the cutscene, talk with Krobus, go into mutant bug lair, go back to the train station.

[naive night]

I talk with krobus and he does his normal talk

[compact kraken]

Can you get into the bug lair?

[naive night]

no

[compact kraken]

And you have no quest?

[naive night]

no

[compact kraken]

Then I'm fairly sure you didn't get that quest from the cutscene?

As in, it was a different cutscene.

[naive night]

Hmm

How do I get the cutscene then

[compact kraken]

Have you completed the community center?

[naive night]

yep

and 10 hearts with wizard

[worthy lake]

I don't think hearts with wizard matters, I've done it with 2

[naive night]

hmmmm

[compact kraken]

Once the Dark Talisman quest appears in the Journal, if you visit Krobus, the quest disappears from the journal. It is not necessary to enter the Mutant Bug Lair, nor to get the talisman itself in order to complete the quest. However, you still must do those things in order to trigger the Goblin Problem quest, enter the Witch's Swamp, and meet the Henchman.
Maybe this is what happened?

[naive night]

maybe

I still can't go into the hut or the bug lair though

Nor do I have the goblin problem quest

[worthy lake]

Are you on pc or console?

[naive night]

Pc

[worthy lake]

Are you using any mods?

[naive night]

no

[compact kraken]

I'm finding a single 3 year old issue that had no result.

Well, if you want I can take a look at your save, see if I can set the event flags correctly.

If not just outright reset the quest.

[remote frost]

steam doesn't work ingame for me
how do i fix this
i've tried checking the settings for overlay, uninstalling and reinstalling and nothing seems to work
i came to the conclusion that it might've been vortex messing with it so i uninstalled that and redid the process of uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail

[worthy lake]

Are you using mods?

[remote frost]

only smapi which was uninstalled along with vortex

[cold bone]

Is this supposed to happen?

[compact kraken]

Sadly, yes. Random weeds still grow on the island if you don't have a golden clock yet (which also works for the island), but in its attempt to grow there, it'll remove the crop, then after that it returns the soil to normal, flatout deleting your crop.

[cold bone]

so sad

[worthy lake]

Worst feature imo, keeps screwing my s/o ship 15 crops

[compact kraken]

Plant 20. :B

[worthy lake]

tru

[cold bone]

but in this case no random weed have spawned

it's only the atempt?

[compact kraken]

Right, so weeds can't exist on tilled soil. So it picks that spot, removes the crop, then forgets about it being a tilled tile, and fails to spawn it.

It's... dum

[cold bone]

So, the golden clock works for both farms?

[compact kraken]

Yep

[cold bone]

nice!

Can anyone help me with something?
Here's the rundown.

I tried to follow CA's instructions on what to do, but its not loading my savefile for some reason?

If it's any consolation, I have the original zip here:

Thanks in advance

The big problem is that I don't know how to do this

[worthy lake]

Erm

All you should have to do is put that in the new folder where saves go

If your save is just a working backup you're looking at the wrong guide

[timid talon]

I did, but it said No Saved Games found

[timid talon]

oh yeah it is a backup

What should I do then?

[worthy lake]

[mighty kettle]

Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.

This guide

[timid talon]

Uh, I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be looking at

[worthy lake]

Wait is that a backup save? And not the save that was directly in the save folder before?

[timid talon]

Yes, it was in the save-backups folder

[worthy lake]

Hm.. I'm really not sure that should just work... Were you playing on this save not that long ago?

[timid talon]

Yeah, it's been a couple days

oh wait wow, 2 months

Could it be because its a different version?

It shouldn't be but tbh that save yeah doesn't look like the most recent one

Region locking has to do with a game only working on a console that's set to a specific region

[chrome sandal]

can you zoom out?

[wanton gust]

How do you do that?

I'm on PC

[chrome sandal]

in the game settings after loading a save, you can change the zoom level

[wanton gust]

I guess I don't know where that is

So I'm about to open the game from Steam

[quiet garden]

@timid talon what you can’t do is using a PC 1.5 version in a mobile platform

But if your backup is PC -> PC it should work

This is how my folder looks like, and what the guide says is that could use another’s character/story’s saveGameInfo file to restore the one you want to

(Ignore the ones ending in “_old”, they’re for testing purposes)

[quiet garden]

But this is assuming you have another one, if you haven’t I don’t know if you could use one from someone’s else, in which case I would share mine, but it’s probably bound to the device

[timid talon]

yep, it is PC.._PC

[timid talon]

Yeah I didn't get what this means, could you help with that?

[quiet garden]

Let’s assume you had two different storymodes saved in your computer, two different characters. They would have different names, so... your folder would look like this one:

What the guide says (someone correct me if I’m wrong) is that you could use the files you’re missing from one story to replace the other, thanks to an specific feature that would update it once you login again

That would apply just to the SaveGameInfo file

[timid talon]

So like "Alex" and "Kai" here

[quiet garden]

Exactly, I could use the SaveGameInfo from Kal, copy/pasting it into Alex, and once I login into Alex everything should work fine

(I want to state that I haven’t used it before at all, just trying to figure out in order to help you)

[timid talon]

Wouldn't that make me lose data, or something?

because I have the literal file, it just doesn't show up in load games

[quiet garden]

It would apply just for that specific file I’m mentioning

[quiet garden]

The most important thing is that you save a backup of those files before trying anything

[worthy lake]

Wait wait wait

Raijin's problem isn't that a save file is missing or corrupted

[quiet garden]

As long as you backup EVERY file into that folder in another place, you wouldn’t have any issues

[worthy lake]

They just can't get the one they copied before resetting their pc to pop up

They have a perfectly working save

[quiet garden]

Oh my... I joined late, it could be

Oh well, I’m trying to figure out what the guides he’s following says

And I understood that he’s missing the SaveGameInfo file, am I wrong? And that he’s getting a “no saved games” error

[worthy lake]

#vanilla-tech-support message

Maybe you should start from the top 😛

[quiet garden]

I started from there, then he asked for help to understand an exact sentence from the guide

[quiet garden]

Here

[worthy lake]

Except they were looking at the wrong guide 😛 the guide they were looking at is if your save is corrupted, they have one but for some unknown reason the normal drag and drop to roaming/stardewvalley/saves isn't wanting to work

Which is where I got confused because afaik that should just work

[quiet garden]

Oh, that’s something I didn’t have a way to realize, I insisted I was just “FIGURING OUT” what the author was saying

I also mentioned I haven’t try it, and gave him instructions to prevent a data lose

[timid talon]

Um

for some reason I had to create a "saves" folder though

[quiet garden]

@timid talon save all the files you included into the backup you made before formatting the computer in several folders, this way you couldn’t ruin it by doing trial/error

[worthy lake]

Wait what?

Raijin where are you trying to put it?

You should be putting the save at C:\Users\Yourpcusernamehere\AppData\Roaming\StardewValley\Saves

[timid talon]

Yeah that's what I was doing

[worthy lake]

Did you run the game once before you started this process?

[timid talon]

Yessir, I wonder if it was because I was using SMAPI with my friends to get more players on?

[worthy lake]

I dunno

[quiet garden]

You need to start a new game, with a different name than the one you want to return

[worthy lake]

Are you still at your pc?

[timid talon]

Yep, I just woke up like 2 minutes after Kal suggested something

[quiet garden]

The first time you install the game

[timid talon]

Alright

[quiet garden]

1. Backup your original folder
2. Into the fresh empty computer: install Stardew valley
3. Start a new game with a random name, to prevent duplicates on saved folder
4. Copy your backed up folders where @worthy lake suggested

[timid talon]

Alright, I did that

The new game, I mean

[quiet garden]

And I guess you used a different name, right?

[timid talon]

Yessir

[quiet garden]

Now, does it say there are no saved games?

I mean, are you still getting the same error?

You should see your new game with a random name on it

[timid talon]

Nope, its still the new one that I created

[quiet garden]

Okay

Now copy the files you included in the backup into that folder we mentioned

And check that it looks like mine, different names for different folders

[quiet garden]

This is the one, sorry

The whole folder with those 3 files inside, into that folder we mentioned

So you would have several folders like:

Randomname_393733624
YourOriginalNameBackup_4295929452

[timid talon]

my god

I'm so stupid

Kal, you know how I had to "create" a Saves File

[quiet garden]

What do you mean?

[timid talon]

Hold on,

You know how I had to create a new game?

[quiet garden]

The idea behind starting a new game is to make the game creating that folder

[timid talon]

when I went into my "saves" folder, nothing was there

but I went into appdata, and there it was

[worthy lake]

It was at this moment that Raijin knew.. he snuffed up

[timid talon]

so now, if I COPY the folder over, it should run

[quiet garden]

Uhm, I’m not sure I’m following you, but it’s okay, you have your backup in a zip/rar, it’s secure there

[timid talon]

Yep, my stuff is there Kal

[quiet garden]

I would suggest you just move this whole folder to the one we mentioned

[timid talon]

TL;DR I was copying the folder in the wrong "saves" folder

[quiet garden]

And it should work

It’s okay, probably most plyers made mistakes with it, me included, the important thing is that you got your stuff

Do you?

[timid talon]

Yeah, I just didn't think I had to access the Roaming folder, I thought I just had to create a Saves Folder

[quiet garden]

That’s great

I’m so happy to know it

[timid talon]

That's me at the bottom

Thanks alot!

[quiet garden]

Haha, nice!
Now enjoy it, mate!

[timid talon]

ayo i saw that

[gray solar]

hi

im trying to play stardew valley from steam, it says "Running" but then it never opens

[peak osprey]

!reinstalldeps have you tried this?

[mighty kettle]

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).

[earnest stirrup]

Hey there. Having a problem where Stardew isn't allowing me to enter a code to join a multiplayer game. Like, the option doesn't come up. I can host OK, just not join. Any ideas? Oh and PC, no mods

[steady ravine]

I'm also having problems with multiplayer but on the ps4 :( the error np-32206-3 keeps on appearing for us. Can't join multiplayer and there are no online fixes too.

[gray solar]

hi i just did and it didnt work

[mighty kettle]

@earnest stirrup For connection issues in multiplayer see the pinned post in #vanilla-tech-support (<#vanilla-tech-support message>) and also the wiki troubleshooting page (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer).

[peak osprey]

since you have mods, please go to #archived-modded-support instead!

[novel oriole]

So something weird just happened, I swear I was on the 14th of summer because I just harvested starfruit and put them in a chest and planted melon. I go to play again today and I'm on the 7th, everything is like it was on the 14th it's just the 7th now.

[obsidian tulip]

hai, i found a small bug, where can i submit it? o.o

ima put it here, pls ping me or delete this msg if this is inappropriate channel for bugs
so i already donated this disc artifact long time ago but the game says no

[ornate estuary]

hey guys, my game doenst launch opening it on steam (tried reinstalling xna, .net framework, running as administrator, and nothing works). The only way that i found is installing Smapi. Now, i have two .exe files: "Stardew Valley" (doenst work) and "StardewModdingAPI" (working). Can i play it normally, singleplayer and multiplayer?

sorry for the bad english

[quiet garden]

It happened to me on 2 different games and it fixed itself, so I didn’t need to donate them again

[obsidian tulip]

but idk if it's included in donated items, the description of the disc is still available if i click on it in my bag, but i only care if it counts tbh xD

[quiet garden]

Trust me, it does, especially if you can see its description and not the “Gunter could blahblah...”, it happened to me twice and I got worried too :))

[obsidian tulip]

okie then, i will let it fix itself, thanks for the info

[hexed apex]

hey guys, new here. I am currently running SDV through Smapi, and I suddenly have been getting this error message, and it pops up when i try to load my save. I have 55+ hours into this save and would rather not lose it :/

I'm not super good with using mods yet so sorry if this is just me being dumb lol

[frail gorge]

I believe this is due to your game folder having mods that require SMAPI (basically, all non-cosmetic mods). You can play the game just fine using SMAPI, and launching it through SMAPI is actually the normal way to play the game if you're using mods

[frail gorge]

Run your SMAPI installer again and take note of the green text that appears in the cmd window (black box). It'll give you a command to include in your steam launch options, such that steam will launch the game through SMAPI

[frail gorge]

Hey, no problem. It looks like something messed with your save file - did you use any sort of save file editor, or a mod that does such?

Try these troubleshooting steps to revert your most recent save, usually works for these issues: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Undo_the_last_save

[hexed apex]

The only one i can think of are the ones that interfere with the grass growth,, I was trying to get more straw :/

and the only other one i used was the skip fishing minigame

[fringe cobalt]

So... I'm just about 60% sure the game used to run on my potato laptop.

Attempting to run it on a Gateway laptop. Specs here:

last time i checked, it ran Bleed 2 (which runs on xna) at a fine rate. not well enough for speedruns, but still playable.

[frail gorge]

This particular error is kind of hard to troubleshoot as it's tied to an individual's hardware. You could try updating your drivers... but I'm not familiar with the feasbility of Pentium onboard graphics, or if it's supported for SDV

It's odd that it used to run but not anymore though - in that case, sounds dumb but have you tried restarting steam/your computer/fresh install?

[fringe cobalt]

this was like 5 years ago that i thought it ran

maybe longer

[frail gorge]

Updating your drivers might be your best bet, failing that, try going into the _CommonRedist subfolder of your game install

Run the dotNet and XNA installers in that directory, restart your laptop, and give it a shot

Hope at least some of these work for you

[fringe cobalt]

how does one even go about updating drivers

[frail gorge]

It's specific to the particular hardware you have - the process itself would be as simple as downloading and running an updater, but finding the right one is the hard part - a Toshiba laptop user would go to the Toshiba website, a guy with a nvidia card would go to the geforce website, etc

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/37253/Procesador-Intel-Pentium-T4300-cach-de-1-M-2-10-GHz-FSB-de-800-MHz-?pg=2&keyword=Procesador Intel® Pentium® T4300 (caché de 1 M, 2,10 GHz, FSB de 800 MHz)

[fringe cobalt]

so. gateway and intel

[frail gorge]

Unfortunately, intel doesn't seem to offer any driver updates for the T4300... the only software package available for download looks like a ID thing

[fringe cobalt]

both of mine are up to date

trying the uninstall method

holy heck

[fringe cobalt]

I don’t even see an _commonredist subfolder.

Looks like I might need to reinstall .net

Well I reinstalled dotNet, and Terraria worked again.

But still had the same issue with Stardew

Now it’s installing directx 9.0

Still nothin :/

[frail gorge]

Yes, this error happens on any game that uses Direct or XNA, that's why it's tough to troubleshoot...

[fringe cobalt]

Terraria worked fine and opened a world like normal.

Meanwhile even with both now installed, Stardew still has no luck :/

I didn’t restart the computer (because it takes a while to restart), but still.

Try exiting steam

I think it’s the hardware acceleration.

The computer’s not letting me access the setting.

Surely it’s not because my steam folder isn’t called Steam, right?

[frail gorge]

I... don't think that would affect it, no

[fringe cobalt]

sigh

Yeah, no updates at all are available for the computer drivers.

[quiet garden]

@fringe cobalt , try uninstalling your vga and use the “look for new hardware” feature or reboot, so windows could install the original drivers, those that you were probably using last time you managed to play

Devices manager/display devices/[right click your graphics card] uninstall device/mark the “remove drivers” option

(I guess those are the english terms, let me know if you can’t find them)

[fringe cobalt]

thanks, I'll definitely give that a shot later on. hoping that won't absolutely destroy the computer though 😅

for now, i'll set my mom's computer up with the mod. now that i've got steam installed on it

[worthy lake]

If you ask in #archived-modded-support they can help you

[compact kraken]

With just SMAPI installed you can play vanilla just fine, both SP and MP. It'll even create neat backups of your saves.
If you're sticking to smapi don't forget to set up the launch options in steam as shown when you install it.

[compact kraken]

Just as extra info, to get 100%, you're at least going to have to find it again. As right now due to some bug you managed to donate it, but you still haven't "found" it. I'm sure if you go mining a bunch you'll find it again in notime.

[tall falcon]

Guys I need help I updated my stardew valley from v1.5 but Its still says v1.5 instead of v1.5.4

[worthy lake]

Are you on steam or gog?

Or console

[compact kraken]

Also, where exactly does it say 1.5?

[worthy lake]

They are on illegal download because they dmed me lmao

#old-rules Rule 5

[tall falcon]

No It's from my other pc

[worthy lake]

If it's from your other pc you'd have it on steam or gog in which it would auto update

[tall falcon]

Oh Im doomed I dont know the password of my Steam and I cant recover It

[worthy lake]

Sounds like something you should pursue with steam support

[mossy cradle]

Someone found a fix to the repeat of Level up messages every night?
Kubuntu 20.04, gog on 1.5.4
I asked in the forums and a few had the issues across all platforms but no fix

[fringe cobalt]

If you send a request to Steam they may be able to assist you

I’ve actually looked into this same issue before.

[granite stream]

nope

unless you have a modded switch

in which case, yes but i literally have no idea

in that case, sadly you cannot :/

[reef sandal]

hii um how do i share my co.op code

i saw that i need a controller?

[worthy lake]

That's split screen co-op

[reef sandal]

i have a doubt with that too

i cant seem to do either of them

[worthy lake]

For split screen you need a controller

[reef sandal]

oh thats sad

so um what about the code? i saw on the wiki and more options appear there

i only have the option of start local co-op

[granite stream]

are you on steam or gog?

and keep restarting your game, its a common issue,

!mphelp

[mighty kettle]

For connection issues in multiplayer see the pinned post in #vanilla-tech-support (<#vanilla-tech-support message>) and also the wiki troubleshooting page (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer).

[little turtle]

are the saves even the same between the pc and switch? you might have to run the pc version on the switch to get save compatibility between them it's hard to know

even if you did have a modded switch I mean

[worthy lake]

somewhat I think

[compact kraken]

Fairly sure the save structure is the exact same, as it's all saved as XML, no reason for Switch version to suddenly throw it around.

[little turtle]

nice. well if you had a modded switch you could probably run the steam version on it anyway

since ya know it's modded so you can run any software you want

[worthy lake]

I think the only difference between console/pc is using monogame vs C++ or xna

(I forget which it actually is on pc)

[little turtle]

the pc one has mod support which is enough of a reason to choose that version over the switch one if you have the choice tho

idk I don't have a hacked switch so idk how hard it is to even get one of those or do that. it'd be cool if switch had a dedicated way to load save files tho like onto an sd card so you could transfer them

[worthy lake]

Tbh if I have a pc and a switch I'd use the pc anyway because performance

[little turtle]

i mean I get the appeal of a switch for portability

if I was to buy a console it would probably be that one.

[worthy lake]

I looked it up once and there was only a certain group of them that actually are jalbreakable/hackable

Any new ones can't be

[little turtle]

part of why I don't use a console is because I don't like that they're locked down so you can't install your own software, that jailbreaking them is an exploit that requires a hardware bug and not just a feature.

it just makes them go to ewaste faster and makes them less useful. the ps3 was the last console I remember being unlocked by design before sony patched it because people were buying them to make supercomputers

[compact kraken]

It's why a lot of people have the mentality of "I own this hardware so I can do with it what I want.", which... I can't disagree with, but also plenty side effects. :V

[little turtle]

it's not entitled to want something you paid money for with the capabilities of being a pc to not be intentionally amputated so it's a brick with 1 function.

[compact kraken]

But that's what it's marketed as, and what you pay for. It's like saying that owning a copy of a game entitles you to decompile and use whatever source code and assets you find for yourself.

[little turtle]

I don't think it's a fair comparison because none of my digital games end up in landfills. None of my games have any physical footprint. And also I do believe you should be able to rip games and use their assets for purely personal use. I don't think you should be selling them as your own art or giving them away.

or even sharing them really

but if you wanna decompile a game to find out how a system in it works go for it

[compact kraken]

So buy something that fits your needs instead?

[little turtle]

I do. that's why I said I don't own any console

[compact kraken]

Fair enough. x)

[little turtle]

they can sell whatever shit locked down product they want and I can not buy it. yes the reasons I don't buy it are entitlement but if I did buy it I'd be feeding their behavior and encouraging them to make more locked down things

that's really the bigger problem to me than people being entitled is people supporting the bad behavior anyway

[hexed apex]

I got it fixed! I had to lost a little progress but the save files were corrupted. A little is better than all though :3

[supple river]

There is any way to play with a friend that he havent got the game?

[worthy lake]

On steam kind of on anything else no

Well actually I think playstation has some couch co op thing as well

[compact kraken]

There's local co-op. And doesn't steam allow remote play on SDV?

[worthy lake]

Does it not? I've never tried it but I see the option pop up when I launch stardew

[compact kraken]

I haven't tried it either, but I also saw the option, so I can only presume it does.

[supple river]

Mmm play together is like a streaming 🥴

[compact kraken]

Can they not join your game that has local co-op with a controller?

[wet sphinx]

Does anyone know how to troubleshoot when a steam controller isn’t working with the game properly? Mine was working fine before the update and now half the joystick and the ABXY buttons don’t work

[proper raft]

hey so i have an issue

i tried to go back a day but it didnt work

theres a file called DS.saves

could be a mod?

[merry breach]

Hey guys new player btw. I finally caught the Legend fish and got so excited that I was taking pictures of it and forgot that it was 2 am already. Of course I was upset since you can only catch it once. So then I tried searching for some info about it to see if you can catch it again. A lot of reddit posts from the past have said that only Legend can be caught more than once. So I was relieved and so I used the rain totem so it's gonna rain tomorrow. The next day it was raining and I've been fishing all day, ate Fish o the sea, used the wild bait but still no Legend. I got really really worried. So I searched for more workarounds and one thing that I saw was that you can delete a save file so it's gonna go back to the day before. But it's already been two days since I caught it. It's only gonna go back to the day after I caught it. So yeah I was just wondering if you can really catch it more than once? It's the only fish I'm lacking.

[worthy lake]

You can only catch the legendary fish once per player

[merry breach]

I'm so stupid :(

In loving memory of this save

[worthy lake]

Technically on pc you could cheat one in using a mod

[merry breach]

I'll try to look in to that. Thanks.

[worthy lake]

Or even get a mod to catch them more than once

[red pine]

so, my game started experiencing horrible lag earlier, and im not quite sure whats causing it. its an offline game, so thats not it. ive restarted the game three times now, same problems each time. ive closed every other program i can other than it and discord. i have even restarted my pc and nothing changed.
any ideas? is it just mods? they didnt cause any problems the last couple days

[distant olive]

hi guys! majority of my kegs on my farm have stopped working (they’re still working on making wine for like 9 days now) and my slime incubator has been incubating the same egg for more than a week.
is there anything i can do other than just break the item (and waste what’s inside )?
i’m on 1.5.1 on switch

[willow bramble]

hewo, well, a few days ago I downloaded the game and everything was perfect, I married Elliott, but he just doesn't move except for certain animations, for example he doesn't help on the farm or anything, I have no mods downloaded, and the rest of the functions are perfect, what should I do?

[nova saddle]

1.5.4 pc steam, game is experiencing horrible frame stutter problems, it's like every other second and makes the game unplayable. i've tried restarting my pc, validating game files, and task manager shenanigans, and reinstalling, nothing has worked thus far. it didnt have this problem back when i last played it (early February?) so i have no clue what's up. tag me if you have a solution

[quiet coyote]

Yes we are having the same problem. We are playing 4 multiplayer game and didn't have any problem last night that we played until now. We are experiencing crazy huge delays and gap, also lagging in animation or some sort, we start restarting pc and re opening the world and none works. Thank you 💖

[worthy lake]

Since you're on switch and an older version no you can't do anything else

[worthy lake]

This sounds like normal to me

They don't really do too much on the farm 😛

[worthy lake]

Mods?

[worthy lake]

Mods?

[quiet coyote]

No mods and using PC

[worthy lake]

Hm.. interesting

[compact kraken]

Almost sounds like a windows update if people are all suddenly having it together, lol.

[worthy lake]

Well, my windows does have an update available

[thick island]

Hi my save file is missing ingame, I had to use a smapi backup to get the file but even then I think it's corrupted

I tried renaming _old to the normal one and using it, save file surgery and messing with the savegameinfo but none have worked (sorry I know it's a common problem and I use to be able to fix it but for some reason it just won't work?) The other saves run just fine

[granite stream]

since you're on smapi, #archived-modded-support would be better since mods can be known for corrupting saves, and give them a log -

!log

[mighty kettle]

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

[balmy quartz]

maybe others will

[worthy lake]

🤦‍♂️

[gilded citrus]

@balmy quartz please note that you can't share GoFundMes, Kickstarters or other fundraising campaigns in here even if they aren't yours since it still falls under advertising. Please review the rules for what is and isn't allowed.

[slate onyx]

hello, im albi and need help about my saved games, so i changed my device and decided to backup my saved file to Google Drive. and when i restore to new device the saved file doesn't show up in load screen. i already follow the step from https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves

[compact kraken]

Can you show a screenshot of the files you copied and the file path where you placed the saves?

[proper raft]

Hey can someone answer this

[compact kraken]

I'm afraid I don't really understand the question? You tried to use the _old backup as a save and it didn't work how?

[slate onyx]

hi malibloo thanks for the response, i really appreciate it 🙏 . here the file

[compact kraken]

I'm not a 100% certain, but I don't think that saves are supposed to be named like that? Not to mention those are too many files as well compared to a normal save folder.

[slate onyx]

yes i think same as you, from i learn from google the file name have "albi" n "_old ". but what i have didn't. but idk why my saved file all numbers

[compact kraken]

Google drive probably messed that up somehow. I think if you rename one of the 3.55mb files to the same name as your folder name Albi_256636145, and the 95.71kb file to SaveGameInfo it might work again.

If you're set back a day, I'd suggest renaming one of the other 3.55mb files.

[slate onyx]

it work!! big thanks for you malibloo really appreciate for your time to response. once again thanks lot 🙏🙏🙏

[compact kraken]

Awesome! And no problem. c:

[proper raft]

When i started up the game the new save files were back!

I deleted them but then they came back

I did the renaming and stuff, but then when i loaded the game it was summer 4 instead of 3

And when i went back into the files the new files had reappeared

there was a file in there called DS.store

[compact kraken]

So is the problem solved? I'm not sure what the issue is still.

[proper raft]

that i didnt recognize, i think it might be the cause of the issue

no?

[worthy lake]

Are you using steam?

[proper raft]

no i cant go back a day

yes

[worthy lake]

Steam is auto replacing your files with the cloud

[proper raft]

oh ok

how fix

[worthy lake]

Turn it off 😛

[proper raft]

where

[compact kraken]

You can turn it off, and still get hecked over, or you can start the game (wait at the main menu), then do the renaming and load your save.

[proper raft]

You can turn it off, and still get hecked over

why would this happen

but ye ill try that

[compact kraken]

Because when you turn it back on it'll still try to replace the files.

[proper raft]

wym

[compact kraken]

Which should give you a prompt, but I've heard from people that it doesn't always.

[proper raft]

why would i turn it back on

[compact kraken]

Up to you I suppose. No way to ever get your save back if your HD breaks.

[proper raft]

i feeel like if that broke i would have bigger problems on my hands

but ill try ur method

[nova saddle]

just woke up, completely vanilla

[proper raft]

This didnt work

[proper raft]

How

WHAT

Its still not fucking working???

I deleted it and it didnt reload the saves but it still doesnt work????

Ok so the issue might have been that i was editing the wrong save but now i cant find my save

[worthy lake]

Right click on game on steam > properties> unclick steam cloud

Ok but now i have a diff issue

I cant find my save in the saves folder

hello guys how do i craft casks I upgraded my home to 3rd level but nothing happened

oh sorry im at 2nd upgrade

[trail elk]

Hey. I was wondering if this is a known bug or if anyone else has encountered it:
There is no coal respawning in the minecarts. I have waited several seasons and I'm on the latest version.

I assumed there's something wrong. But maybe I have to do something to make it spawn? Let me know if you guys know anything. Thank you!

[worthy lake]

Iirc coal doesn't respawn in the normal mine unless you switch to the harder one

[trail elk]

You mean the Skull Cavern? @worthy lake

[compact kraken]

Keep upgrading until you have the basement.

[worthy lake]

I mean a later on thing you can unlock 😛 But the skull cavern also resets coal yes

[compact kraken]

I don't recall how it works with hardmode mines, but coal does indeed not respawn in SP. It's... weird. I've seen it respawn continuously in normal mines on MP, I've seen empty carts/bags in SC before. Either way getting it from coal sprites is faster.

[worthy lake]

MP has so many extra perks lol

[trail elk]

Thank your for the info!

[trail elk]

By SP you mean Single Player, right?

[compact kraken]

Correct

And even then the farm host will likely not get respawning coal, while the people they play with will. It's dum.

[trail elk]

Ahh I see. Yeah that was what was confusing me bc in MP I never had a problem with that

Thanks

[worldly timber]

so something in my fiance's game is broken, the multiplayer aspect will not work at all. not sure if this is the right channel for that type of support but i figured that i would request anyone that might be able to help and if so thanks in advance ^^

all mods are on nexus and we even deactivated all mods and she has uninstalled and reinstalled

how do i trigger the spouse beach scene??

i've been looking on the wiki and cannot find it

I've already posted this on #stardew-valley , but I believe this is the right place, so...

[fervent parrot]

hello

[hexed apex]

My spouse has already given me a stardrop, and yet no stardrop shows up when I talk to her, only a purple circle

Is this a known bug? I'm playing on Android, btw

[compact kraken]

What's a spouse beach scene? Far as I know you can ||"run into" your spouse on the beach at random, there's no cutscene||. Where did you get this info from?

[tawdry sandal]

1.5 spoilers maybe??
after doing more research i found out it was ||beach resort||

[compact kraken]

I mean, you're the one who asked about it? Still not sure what cutscene.

[compact kraken]

Not sure if Android has this feature, as it has a wildly different UI, I might be entirely mistaken though.

[tawdry sandal]

it's not a cutscene

just a special portrait

[compact kraken]

Ohh, you're talking about ||that when they get to the beach they have a beach costume on.|| Yeah that happens at complete random once you unlock that place.

i'm brand new, blind playthrough, how do i restore energy

[fair halo]

you can go to the bath house

[hexed apex]

okay

[fair halo]

just go in the water it will restore it fully

just stay still in it for a few seconds

[hexed apex]

nice

thanks

[fair halo]

its right by the linus house and your welcome

[frail gorge]

Silly question, but the ingame sound options are not muted right?

Failing that, right click the speaker icon in the system tray at the bottom right (assuming you're on Windows)

[fair halo]

i pressed esc to see the menu and all the bars for the music and sound animals were all the way up

[frail gorge]

Click Open Volume Mixer and check is SDV is muted for some reason

Hmm, if that doesn't work either, some googling seems to say that people have fixed it through some combination of uninstalling/reinstalling, and rebooting their computers:

I've noticed lately that if I leave the game running but paused and my PC turns off the monitor when I return my game is either Not Responding or has no audio. My monitor is hdmi and I have my speakers connected to it (for ease of cabling). Is this a known issue or is there an easy fix for it? Just lost an entire day of progress (6:30 pm) due to the game Not Responding.

There is not a fix

Due to the game being coded in C++ it can't switch audio devices and it had to have one active to run

So if said device gets unplugged it goes into sleep mode it will crash/not respond

Well I suppose a "fix" would be not allowing your monitor to go into sleep mode but that's not really a fix

i'm not sure if it's to do with mods or not but when i start my game it's like the computer thinks that the window is offset to what it actually is so if i try to click a button on the bottom of the screen i can't click it

can't move my mouse further down than this

[chrome sandal]

try changing your resolution/going into windowed mode

does the same thing

Still i can’t hear stardew

I hear sounds from YouTube but not stardew and idk how to access the stereo thing ppl talk about

I press the sound button to the bottom right and it’s says sound is on

[terse portal]

try windows button + G? my only experience with windows is using bootcamp on mac so i could be wrong, but i'm pretty sure that's where you control sound based on windows/apps. if that's not it, it might just be sound settings in game lol

ive tried doing everything but i cant get it to work this sucks

i found the volume mixer thing but it says everything is on

[terse portal]

yeah no, i don't think that's a problem with mods, considering none of those change the screen and stuff. have you tried messing around with the resolution settings? haha sorry i'm not of much help since i don't think i've had that problem

[untold forge]

oh and this only seems to happen on my second monitor

[terse portal]

ah damn that sucks, i won't really be of much help in this case either

[terse portal]

@untold forge @fair halo i sent a pm to both of you w/ some helpful links & potential fixes because i didn't think i was helpful enough here lol
