No mod
Legit copies of game?
Yes through steam
Hmmm. Sounds like a sync issue. Might try other person hosting. Seen this before where people were 14 hours ahead in game I can't remember the solution or if there was one
Though not for a long in game time lets say, we tried me hosting and she joining but it was the same (she faced the same issues as me)
We tried turning off the steam save sync to the cloud but it didnt helped
i hope it gets solved somehow because this is like the perfect game to play with my SO 😅
I can provide additional details if it is needed i really want this to be solved
@finite delta can you take a look please?
I tried searching internet but there were very few proposed solutions
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).

the next step would be to do one of these two things
How do i play on multiplayer without steam
https://smapi.io/log/7dfd60b86a994de9859656eed372d0c3 I Use CHKDSK But Still Doesn't Work For Me Can U Help Me?
^, if you have the game on GOG it works the same as on steam. if you don't have it legally, we can't help you
hi, there seems to be a bug where artifacts and gems don’t show in your achievements/acquired items even after donating to gunther. i heard it’s a known bug but idk a workaround and im playing on the ipad
happens with the rare disc and the skeletal tail
i’ve acquired them multiple times and kept them in my inventory but they still don’t show
I don't believe there was a workaround? I'm not sure
Hi, I need help because my multiplayer farm cannot be started / opened.
More accurate:
I want to play Stardew Valley with my friend and start the multiplayer farm:
The loading screen comes on, but the picture stops and Stardew closes.
I've tried everything, the world out of the folder and back in again. Stardew uninstalled and installed. Maybe you can help me
Do you play with mods and do you have a legit copy of the game?
I'm assuming your friend/s are not using mods and also have a legit copy?
Yes we both dont use Mods and have a legit copy.
This problem has existed since yesterday, and i googled but nothing came out.
Hmmm. Can you even create a single player farm?
That works, but the multiplayer farm doesn't, I can also create a new multiplayer farm and play and join on it.
Can your friend join you if you create it?
He can join the new farm, but not the old one.
Oh wait it's an old world not loading?
so there’s no fix yet? 🥺
Our common one, if I create a new one it works, but not with our current one
Afaik no. It will probably be fixed with 1.5 mobile
@compact kraken Broken world situation for ya. Maliblooo can probably fix it. He should be on somewhat soon (;
Okay, thank you ;D
I'm not entirely sure on what the issue is, but sure, if you want, pop the save file over in my DM.
@grave pond ^
@compact kraken I cant write, because you have activated it so that only friends can write to you
Hello there. I have a question for you. We have completed our 4th year in the game with my friend. When we started the game, we entered with the "four-cornered field" map. But we don't want to use this map anymore. We want to revert to the standard version. I started with the solutions I found on the internet, but the problem is that when we change the map type, there are some indelible objects. Do you know the way to remove them?
Will try now
[SMAPI] Skipped mods
[SMAPI] --------------------------------------------------
[SMAPI] These mods could not be added to your game.
[SMAPI] - BushReset 1.0.0 because it's no longer compatible. Please check for a new version at https://smapi.io/mods
Check for a new version then xd
Try that if not
I know that works
This mod was last updated in 2018. The problem is that even if I can lift these bushes, I don't know how I will react in multiplayer.
Will try
It's probably important for the host to try and do this. I have no idea if the changes will be directly to your farmhands as well, but if you do it once and save your game the updated farm likely be sent to your farmhands after a day.
I can destroy the bushes with the mod you send me. However, there are certain points that indicate that the map is incompatible. I think we should accept the map as such and play accordingly. Thank you very much for your help and feedback.
hello everyone!
Do anyone here have any experience with installing the game from GOG on Linux?
Is there a way to get the tea sapling if you never got it when you got to 2 hearts with Caroline? I just realized that I never entered her plant room when I had enough hearts with her to get the cut scene. I have 10 hearts with her now. I kinda need the recipe for 100% completion
I tried entering the room to trigger the cutscene and nothing happened
It might need specific time of day or year to trigger? I definitely got the scene when I was at like 6 hearts with Caroline so it should be possible
Hello 🙂
Can someone tell me, whether the mummified bat Bug on the Switch is still a thing?
You can get it
Hey friends, my animals keep bugging. They just walk back and forth all night, won’t even go inside to sleep. This is keeping them from producing any milk/eggs too. Anyone know what to do other than just sell them?
Sounds like the AI pathing, had it myself on game reload they went back to normal
You may need to contact Google support about that, but some basic steps you can try (attempting to install after each)
- restart the Play Store app
- switch from wifi to cellular (or the other way around)
- restart your phone
there was a glitch like that for me when the price for the game changed it uninstalled from my device and i needed to buy again
hello
hello! do you need help?
@worthy lake I just skipped the animation before it freezed, thx for trying to help me :]

is there's any way to make my multiplayer farm always online so my friends can play any time? even when i'm offline or the game is closed
that would be great 
thanks

Help please. The secret code for the mermaid show (for the switch) is not working.
Do you have the note?
I've been losing my saves, any tips? (I use smapi and steam)
Yes
!saves
Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.
No idea then
sorry but what exactly do I do after I only my saves folders?
i've tried trasnferring the saves smapi has, but i'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly since it doesn't work
If you are doing it with smapi saves I'd ask in #archived-modded-support
Stardew on Playstation got an update. Anyone know what that was?
Probably bugfixes
my baby turned into a purple rod
why does it look like it is a trash can that hasn't loaded yet
I put a trash can lid on him
how do i play 2 people in split screen on the Nintendo switch?
I had this game on switch and decided to get it on PC as well because mouse would be much easier to do on my PC instead of using ingame mouse. I loaded the game, played through the first week or so, and noticed the UI has a weird scaling bug. Is there a fix for this? I am running on a 4K screen, and the star sky background when I sell items and load a save is scaled improperly too.
Oh no I forgot to mark it as spoiler
I hope it's fine
Also UI scale is set to 100% and the resolution for my game is the right resolution. Scaling up the UI does fix the text being cut off but I think the UI is scaled fine the way it is. (it looks blurry too when I scale the UI up)
Hi guys, I wanted to clarify if something was a bug or not --
I'm in multiplayer with a friend who was much further behind than me so they don't have a lot of recipes or relationships and such. I recently completed the Greenhouse and my friend got the cutscene and the new recipe but the NPC didn't approach me and I don't have the recipe, despite being the host and also being the one who completed the Greenhouse...
Is this a bug or will I get it later or something? I read on the wiki that she comes between 6am and 11am on a sunny day, and I left the building first - same day, within the time zone.
Hello, in multiplayer mode, if the community centre is complete, shouldn't both players get the achievement? My friend got his Local Legend achievement right after but I didn't..Is it a bug or only the last person to complete the bundle is supposed to get it?
how can i report an incompatible mod for smapi
That's a good question for #archived-modded-support!
I think I broke the game the other day. It's a two-player co-op session.
I was entering a shed on the farm and my horse is standing right in front of the door. So the screen transitions from outside to inside the shed, but somehow I managed to mount the horse WHILE entering the shed (during that short fade to black). I might have right-clicked twice. Don't remember.
What my screen now shows is the inside of the shed, but my character isn't there. Can't move either. So now I'm stuck. I was still able to select items from my inventory and (for example) swing my scythe.
I had my co-op partner come into the shed. She said neither I nor the horse were in or outside the shed, but that she could HEAR the sound of my scythe inside. Yes, I'm basically haunting the shed now.
Only thing I could do was wait for the day to end and pass out.
Anyways, that's the story of how me and my horse ended up in some kind of SDV version of the Twilight Zone. Spooky shit.
Not really looking for support on that one. 😆
Xbox Multiplayer Connection Issue: Two friends are unable to join each others sessions or sessions that have the other person in it. Both are using spectrum internet, both have open NAT, each have contacted their service provider to no avail, tried restarting routers, opening ports, reinstalling all of our games, and every other thing we can think of and have seen suggested online. We love this game and we loved the farm we were working on before this issue started and we haven't found another game that we enjoy this much. Any help? Please?
I'll check this again but we've done every thing from their list of suggested fixes. I'll see if there is anything we overlooked, thank you.
Ah, sadly the list is just things we've already tried. I've seen a fair amount of other people with this issue but I've never seen any follow up with a working solution.
So, I was doing some construction work on my island and I decided to tear down some buildings. I destroyed a well, the game gave me the prompt as to if I wanted to tear down a [player]’s house. I had second thoughts and said no. When I went back, the game clipped me inside Robin’s desk.
I do not know the channel of where to report bugs, so I just brought it here. If I need to repost this somewhere else just tell me so.
I am playing on Nintendo Switch, vs. 1.5.4.1, if that helps?
The only way i could get out of it was to waste all my energy or wait till 2am.
take your time
puts on best governor impression

Howdy all,
I have 129 golden walnuts. The parrot in Leo's (old) house no longer gives any clues (merely says "Awk!" without the second dialogue giving a hint). On the wiki it claims there are three specific golden walnut groups that don't have clues: gorilla puzzle, the golden walnut below the gem/bird/statue puzzle in the jungle, and the 3 from the dart game. I am sure I have all of these.
I have repeatedly looked through guides and feel as though I have collected all the golden walnuts. I have also checked the museum and Dr. Snail doesn't have any for me or anything like that.
(1) I have read there is a glitch that can cause this. Is that true?
(2) I am on a Switch. Is there anyway to check the save game data or edit it to fix this issue if it is a glitch?
Thanks!
It could be a bug and since you're on switch there wouldn't be much you could do but hope that an update may fix it
That's what I am afraid of. My wife and I have been playing this save for 130 hours and were working on 100% completion =/
did you find the one ||on the wrecked pirate ship||? that was the last one I found
Hello! I need some help
So I am playing in me android mobile phone and I recently downloaded the PyTK file, the most recent one
For some reason that (picture above) is what I see every time so if possible can I get some help on how to fix this?
try #archived-modded-support, they might be able to help
I did, but i think I got ignored-
Yes, @finite garden . Thanks
hey there, my game stopped launching today after i updated my Windows 10. I have tried EVERYTHING I could find online and have been searching for hours with no success. Varified files, uninstall-reinstall, run as admin, downloaded the _Redist folder and all that was inside, plugged in multiple headphones, nothing ahs worked. Any suggestions would be appriciated
is there an error message or does it just not start?
It just wont start, it wont even show in task manager
#archived-modded-support is the place to ask since you have mods
!reinstalldeps have you tried this yet?
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).
Hi! Sorry to bother ya'll, but my game just crashed itself (twice this has happened) because my power chord had wiggled it's way out, so I put it back in. And it just Bam, froze and then crashed. I've got the smapi log, and it says nothing bad happened, but I'm not sure that's the case.
Would someone be willing to take a look at it?
#archived-modded-support can help you from the sound of it!
Need advice/help please. I lost my hoe and I could not find it anywhere, not in the chest, not at Clint, not at Lewis' Lost & Found bin, not at the shop next to the mine. Has it happened to any of you? Please help. Very sad.
Have you slept since you lost the hoe?
Yes at least 10 days has passed
I saw your conversation on the #792314345018228737. Do you have a 2nd controller to create another multiplayer character?
I play on PC and just built another cabin for a friend. Hopefully I can use my friend’s hoe. Do you think that might work?
Yes, get the 2nd player to place their hoe into a chest and then you pick it up.
So we will be sharing one hoe. If only the game allow us to craft or buy a new one. 😢
Build the cabin, take the hoe, destroy the cabin to delete the additional player's data and then just rebuild the cabin so your friend can have a fresh set of tools.
Ohhhh ok I will try that. Thank you so much 😊
okay... anytime i exit my house for more than 5 seconds on a rainy day, it immediately stops. There is still an icon that indicates thunder and lightning, so it should be raining. I have mods, but there is NO ERROS in my logs, which indicate this ISNT a mod issue, so honestly, i dont really know.
Can you reproduce it without mods
i dont think so, i think my game would crash on this farm without mods. either way, if it shows NO errors in my logs referring to weather, then it shouldnt be mods, right?
it finally stayed raining this time, but for the past like 5 times, its stopped and turned to night despite it being early
i think its something to do with beach farm
Rule of thumb is assume it's a mod unless you can produce without mods
its been fine for the past like 5 years in game xD pretty much same mods, suddenly i get beach farm and anytime it rains, it stops
Something is conflicting
Probably mods ;P
its the same mods, ive had rain just fine in the past without it stopping.
Again, unless you can specifically reproduce without mods it's mods
There's no reason it couldn't be mods even if there's no errors.
Did you type that in manually? Because I don't think you can sadly
you want to change the name?
if you get 4 hearts with the wizard, you can go to his basement and change it there
oh I didn't know that
that looks like a new save file though so it might be easier to just make a new one
wow
Yeah I was about to say that, but can you actually change the farm name??
I don't think so?
by save editing is the only way (sorry just woke up, brain's still a bit fuzzy haha)
I know you can probably change your name and your outfit/ accessories but I don't know about the farm name
but like i said since it's a new save, just make another
@compact kraken little weird, but yeah, i kinda get it now. im gonna try a beach farm without mods and see if i skip it to rain if it stops.
because thats where it stops
I have a little question, I'm trying to play stardew on separate consoles with my boyfriend, and no matter what we do, it always says connection failed, is there a way to fix this? sry for butting in
Cross play isn't a thing for stardew
no it's on the same console
%appdata% > stardewvalley > in here should be startup_preferences delete that
Do you have the required online service?
wdym exactly?
You both need whatever it is xbox live? xbox gold? I forget what it's called now
Tried restarting the consoles? Maybe the other person host?
yeah we've done both of those on each console
Hmmm. Past that it should just work
xbox live gold/game pass ultimate :p
I have game pass 😎
They've changed it like 4 times and I refer to it as a waste of money so 😛
The last thing you could try is restarting both your routers but for consoles that's about the extent you can do
thanks for help its fixed
im so happy
ok I'll talk to him, thanks for your help <3
hey guys, i got the game recently, like 3 days ago, it was working perfectly the first day but now it's kinda freezing in game a lot. other games work fine btw, just stardew. any idea?
Whats the easiest stardrop to get
This is a better question for #stardew-valley this is for bugs and technical support
PC I'm assuming?
!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).
so my games been saving for the past 10 min
do i have to redo the day if i close it
or is it better to let it sit
cause i planted like 300 seeds and if i can i really dont wanna redo that
It's crashed
hii 🙂 is there currently a known bug out there where you can't reach level 10 in the last skill needed in a multiplayer session? both me and my boyfriend are one off in our last skill and we've been trying to level up since forever
I know this isn't quite the right place for it, but this community is way more helpful than most on the internet.
I get a new PC and I've got a not great GPU, a GeForce GT1030 and when I open Steam, I can play some games but not others. Portal plays fine but when I try to open SDV or Fallout 4 it just says preparing to launch then nothing happens. All my drivers are up to date, I've uninstalled and reinstalled, I've verified the integrity or the game files
Does this mean I need a better GPU?
what skill?
!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).
it's probably one of these two frameworks, SDV can run on a potato usually
and fo4's minimum is 550Ti so i feel like that must be a similar issue
Just tried, it hasn't worked
i'm missing level 10 foraging and he is missing level 10 fishing
have you both been working on those skills?
!installforlog might work
Try this:
- Install SMAPI: https://smapi.io/.
- Run the game through SMAPI.
- Upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log.
- Share the log link here.
(You can remove SMAPI later, we're just using it to see what the problem is.)
can't install smapi without running the game first
yeah, i thought that might be the case :(
try with this xna install: https://filehippo.com/download_microsoft_xna_framework_redistributable/

my game will not load up when i click play i need help?
!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).
i hace window 10 and it will not install
Does it give any error?
Sleep@dapper fjord
Go back to day 1 of Spring
Are you on PC?
Yes
its saying i already have it
You can easily open up your save file in a text editor then.
We made some mistakes and want to go to morning of Spring 1
Yeah but it will just change the date
Not the things we made
Or start again@dapper fjord
when i click play it look like it gonna run and then it stops and it say to click play again
Have you tried all the dependables?
What you mean?
This ^
yeah i did that
!installforlog
Try this:
- Install SMAPI: https://smapi.io/.
- Run the game through SMAPI.
- Upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log.
- Share the log link here.
(You can remove SMAPI later, we're just using it to see what the problem is.)
no
Please try this so you can further troubleshoot. @glossy cosmos
SMAPI log parser
Oops, couldn't parse that log. (Make sure you upload the log file, not the console text.)
Share this URL when asking for help: https://smapi.io/log/d2ffe46fb024440ba6ca14d50d1880fa
(Or upload a new log.)
Error details: Found a log message with no SMAPI metadata. Is this a SMAPI log file?
this is what its giving me
...did you locate the log and upload that?
yeah
Well, the message is saying you're not, so...
Either way, it seems like something is keeping the files in use? Do you have some kind of automatic backup system, or an annoying antivirus?
i cant find any antivirus on my pc
Then it's likely some automatic backup system.
All i have is a Virus protection thing on my pc thats it
That's an antivirus, yes.
You could try temporarily disabling it and see if it allows you to play the game.
how do i do that?
That entirely depends on your computer, but it's likely as simple as right clicking the tray icon and telling it to turn off (for a time).
i did that i turn everything off and its not doing anything
Try doing the log thing again.
in the log folder there nothing there?
the Errorlog there nothing in there
If you booted it up at least once it should. What does the console say? Could your screenshot it?
yeah let me see how i can do that on my pc
You could just Windows + Shift + S to make a screenshot, then Ctrl + V in here.
I asked a screenshot of the console that pops up when you start the game though, not the folder. And even then it'd help seeing inside the folder to see it's empty, haha.
when i click the play button on the game it shows the box saying loading up but then it stops and say play again
Did you install smapi?
yes
Then the box should say something more.
it shows a black box thats it
And the black box has no text?
Aight, well, if not even smapi works I'm 99% sure that something's wrong with your .NET.
Hello I have a question: there was a bug with the mummified bats on switch, has that been patched?

im having problem with my controller. steam big picture works fine but when I launch the game, it wont detect the controller.
!controller
Want to play with two steam controllers? Do this: Due to how the steam controllers work they are a little funky but these bindings will allow two to work perfectly.
Player 1: steam://controllerconfig/413150/2436088362
Player 2: steam://controllerconfig/413150/2436114794```
ive tried that but still its not working :((
And you own the game on steam?
yess.
my controller is not branded but still it works on other game, time at portia, witcher and others
Hmmm that's very odd
Has anyone had this issue on pc where after each day when you level up, it repeats the previous level ups and adding the newest level i just got? I’ve already reinstalled it to see if its fixed but it didnt work.
any mods?
No
I use normal stardew
I do have a mod for stardew, but this doesn’t seem like mod i would use.
I started a co op witha friend and I dont see it in my hosting nor in my farm categories I was only on day 3 but I dont want this happening again :(

How do you use mods for Nintendo Switch?
Hello! Can I have a little help here? I just reached 100 hrs playtime and in-game I didn't arrive home before 2 am, so I passed out on the island. After that it just crashed out and then when I opened the game again, my saved world went just POOF AKA it wrote "No Saved Games Found". If someone can give me a hand, I would be really grateful!
without a modded switch, which can do xnb mods, you can't really

Hi! I have a co-op farm with my bf and every single day the game kicks him multiple times, and occasionally kicks me as well. Is there a reason it keeps doing this? It shouldnt be the wifi. It mostly just kicks him.

Congrats nothing will happen as you are not far enough in the game
My save got overwritten by steam cloud. I was playing offline for a while, got to Spring Year 2 and suddenly after reconnecting to Steam Cloud Saves my save has been reverted to Summer Year 1. Is there a way I can fix this?
!saves
Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.
Steam will keep overwriting it if you can grab an old one so disable the steam cloud
Aka right click on stardew on steam library > properties > uncheck steam cloud
Just unchecked it, will that bring my old save back? 😦
I reverted to my old save and it just took me back a day, but I'm still stuck in Summer Year 1, I don't know what else to do to fix it 😦
I’m playing on the switch and my game keeps crashing during the feast of the winter star festival. Is anyone else having this issue?
Something similar happened to me in the game Terraria in the switch. Each time I went to the Ocean the game crash. You got two options either make a new safe file or just skip it.
I have the case of crashing upon launch. Opening via Steam will consider that it’s currently running, but the game isn’t showing up.
Here is the .txt file from the ErrorLogs.
I’ve tried reinstallation of both game and the framework 4.0, opting in and out of Steam Beta despite not even joining in the first place, logging in and out, restarting the laptop, and the other methods of fix I could find.
yello peeps... Some of my achievements unlocked in game haven't appeared on Steam. Is their any way to fix this? Thanks in advance :)
it's complete
I forgot the last update it was implemented. Yasrterday night i got it move
it's not question about help but is this rare?

some jerk glitched into my walls and placed a scarecrow
how do I remove it?
they're not a jerk, they're fine, its jut jerk behavior
Using mods if you can't reach it
they probably swung a sword at the wall to glitch into it, if they didn't do that they would've used a mod
what mod would work?
I'm not too sure but probably one for no clip

Okay, thank you again. I’ll get right to it later. Um, can I ping you about it further on? I mean — if the issue persists or something.
of course! there are others who hang around here and know about these issues, too, if i'm not around
!ask
Feel free to ask your question or describe your issue here, and someone will help if they can :)
ahh thank you!
Helllo I’m a new player! I’m having a technical issue, my boyfriend is trying to joint but there is no option to enter an invite code only find LAN line. Does anyone know a solution for this. I’ve gone through all the wiki steps
Now there’s another issue, I logged into his steam account on my computer just to see if I saw the enter code option and I did. I opened the game under his account but it was not his character it was mine. When he logged back into his account and opened our world he was my character not his
I have no idea what’s going on 😂
!mphelp
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).
I already tried the wiki and the pinned post
have you tried just restarting a bunch?
Yes 🥺 you mean restarting my computer or the game?
sorry, this is an English speaking server. I don’t have any immediate links for you for the Portuguese server, try looking it up?
Other languages are permitted in #vanilla-tech-support and #multiplayer-lfg-old
oh, didn’t realize that. sorry! @ionic hazel hope someone can help you here 🥺
One suggestion I saw was that you should make sure multiplayer says online but mine only say friends only and invite only not online
When he tries to invite me to a new game it won’t let him either
Please help I’m so sad 😂
Hey this is a suggestion for the game, why don't the battery making things lol the poles. They don't work on ginger island even when it rains??
Game is not opening i need help
Try restarting your computer. Mine wouldn’t open when I first downloaded it too
ok
it dosent work
are you running through steam?
yes
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).
@chrome sandal still not working
have you tried running the exe straight?
are you running it on a desktop? Is there a working audio device connected?
im using laptop /no i don't use audio device
The game needs an audio device to work, but I'm assuming your laptop has speakers. try restarting your PC again and try again
i restared laptop and using audio device but still not working
why game not working 😡
can you try this version of XNA? https://filehippo.com/download_microsoft_xna_framework_redistributable/
Download Microsoft XNA Framework Redistributable 4.0 for Windows. Fast downloads of the latest free software! Click now
also, did you just buy the game/get it on a new computer, @torpid sleet, or have you been able to play it before without an issue?
I ran the cracked version without any problems, but I faced with problems when bought with money.
and game still not working
😤
@peak osprey So it did not work. 😞
After that, it just crashed or did not even launched; it stopped running like it exited or something.
hey
just to ask
but anyone know how to convert a save from pc to ps vita?
i'm trying but fail
You def can't
Afaik PS Vita's last version is 1.2? And Pc is 1.5 so
You might be able to go VITA to PC but idk how that would even work
You'd probably have better help on a PS Vita forum tbh. That or starting a new save on it if you can't get it re-encrypted
There a way to transfer save from tablet/mobile to switch?
well i back up it first, so my save are safety
Nope, unless you have 1 of a very select amount of switches that can be jailbroken and then can't be used online again ;P
but i just wanna to try edit the save for something
I wanted to change my UI-scale, accedentially clicked out and now I can't access the settings anymore. I looked in the game-files a bit, but I don't want to mess too much with anything there too much without knowing what I'm doing. Anyone have an idea how I can fix this?
hmmm you might be able to switch tabs using a key bind? i’m not sure if there is one, just a thought 
PC?
Anyway if so %appdata% in windows explorer > stardewvalley > in there is startup_preferences delete that
Bumping this issue of mine. If anyone wants to help, please… Thanks.
!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).
And make sure you have an audio device plugged in
That didn't work
I guess I forgot installing the .NET Framework, then. 😅
My bad.
But I did install the XNA Framework 4.0.
Does installing the .NET Framework require restarting the desktop/laptop?
Uhhh, I'm not sure, it wouldn't hurt to do so however
anyone want to be my friend?
I needed to uninstall the already installed .NET Framework first. Dunno how and where to do it.
That I'm not too sure on
What's your screen resolution?
Does anyone knows how to fix this?
The frame of lag?
Yes
Well, fps lag is affected by many things. A few of these things you can check is:
Are you playing MP? Are you using mods? Is your machine powerful enough? Have you tried checking if it's 100%ing a cpu thread? Do you have a antivirus going in the background? Are there other heavy programs running in the background?
So, I just saw the game running in the Task Manager. But the thing is, it is only running in the background.
After that, it will crash and end process on itself.
How long does that take?
I am not running with mods, I just purchased the game a day ago.
And just installed it for the first time.
Don't suppose you have Terraria as well?
And I meant how long does that take, as in, how long does it take for it to crash after starting it?
Usually, upon attempt of launching the game, it will run for a few seconds.
But only in the background, yeah?
It would not show up, then it will crash.
Gotcha
Yep. I just noticed tonight.
For additional info on solving the issue I'd suggest installing smapi, for the logging capability.
Isn’t that for Android only?
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.
Then it must be the one preventing the game to actually launch.
Eh?
I don’t have SMAPI yet since I don’t have a game so far that requires it.
But you installed it, right?
The game? Yes. SMAPI, not yet. Currently am, though.
Cool, will await log or screenshot of console then.
I have reinstalled the .NET and XNA Frameworks multiple times.
Could be that one file is simply corrupt, this'll help us hunt down which one.
As a sidenote, don't suppose you recently reinstalled or moved your windows installation?
Complains about XNA, but that's kinda logical.
No, not really. I’ve never made such changes. Though, if there’s a Windows update, I do update immediately.
Yeah, no problem. The cases of the aforementioned situation usually can't be fixed without a reinstall of windows. Or at least, I haven't been able to fix that yet, too many windows-related problems.
It's very possible a single windows update (or a faulty XNA install) could've easily borked one of the dll files. A simple replacement would work.
That, I don’t know how to track.
is there a way to go back to a previous save? our multiplayer world just friggin reverted back to spring 1 year 1. my inventory and skills are still the same as it was, my house is upgraded fully but all non standard furniture is gone, the greenhouse is still available but all the bundles have reset
A broken or butchered .DLL file or two.
!saves
Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.
The _old save file should be the previous day. So if you didn't play into Spring 2, you should be able to use the backed up save.
Also are you using any mods? I genuinely never heard of this bug before.
running a cheats menu mod but all it does is disable friendship decay
Thankfully I do. It's likely just a 32-bit having mixed up with a 64-bit file.
non of the other functions were ever used
Could be that it bugged out, or is out of date, or you hit some special secret key combo.
@compact kraken I am asked where I should install SMAPI.
Should it be in the same folder as the game?
I got it from Steam, btw, for additional context.
Yeah, but it should do that automatically iirc?
its a multiplayer server with 3 other people and we were in winter 16 ish
As a sidenote, seeing you're using mods, there's also a folder in the main game directory with like a week of backup saves.
It doesn’t to me, sadly.
I usually just unzip the smapi into the game directory and just run the bat file.
how would i revert to a former
!saves
Use this guide to find your save files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves.
I did that just now. In the CMD application, it asked me.
I can play many games with high graphics but only stardew be like this TT I play alone, there's no heavy programs and antivirus running in the background
But all I need to do is enter 1 or 2, otherwise both 1 if for the first time.
I'm afraid that's because it's a single core thread game. And high graphics have very little to do with processing power. One is your CPU (processor), the other is your GPU (graphics card).
Gotta admit I have no clue what you're talking about, haha.
First question is where I want to install SMAPI, either 1.) same as where the game is or 2.) custom path
Oh, same as game, of course.
Second question is if I want to install or uninstall, 1 and 2 respectively.
Well, also 1, install.
How do I set my launch options to enable achievements?
Since I don’t think I plan to play with mods for now.
Well, right now it's not super necessary to do that, you can for now just start smapi directly.
If you start it through steam it'll just start the default game without smapi.
But we're just using smapi to debug this, so no need for it right now.
If you still want to do it later on you can either check the website, or run the installer again.
Okay. I’ll update if it doesn’t run properly still. ‘Dat okay?
Did it boot?
Hold on… I’m asked to do something. 😓
Allow commands how? Are you the host of the farm?
...windows? What?
like im on computers
Nono, in the console. As in, the black window with text in it, that's a console.
The cmd.
Right click the graph and make it show all cores. I think that's how you do it
it's just back to normal again. everything is fine now. i'm so confused
Even if you walk in the same spot around the same ingame time?
yeah
weird lol
As I mentioned before, there's a ton of things in the background that can suddenly desire an entire thread's attention, giving your game a kick.
Equally at least with mods eventually after playing so long it just starts to stutter and what not but usually a restart of the game fixes it
It did not, unfortunately.
Do I have to restart the laptop after installing SMAPI?
I tried to open the game via the StardewModdingAPI.exe and it opened the CMD application whilst processing it.
But an error occurred once more. I wasn’t able to read it.
So when you started it through StardewModdingAPI.exe it did not stick around to tell you what went wrong?
It did, but I wasn’t able to read it fast enough because it was so quick.
Right, but it's not usually supposed to close by itself, only after you press a button.
You can quickly take a screenshot with Windows + Shift + S.
Having said that, I need to bamf for a while, I'll ping you again when I'm back.
It’s really, really quick. Haha~
It’s blocked by the game opening briefly with the cursor on the top-left.
Wait, the game actually opens?
After that, it quickly crashes.
Yeah, but in plain white, leaving the cursor at the top-left like I said.
having the same problem
That’s what happens to me, lol
oh lol
But it pops up after the CMD exec.
You might have not seen it because the game in white blocks the CMD application.
for me it is just a white screen with nothing in it
Aight, back. Don't suppose you have a log of this? So I can see the start?
Should be in %AppData%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs
Like 87% sure it's a wrong/broken dll.
It looks like just a repeating error of the ErrorLog I got launching the normal Stardew Valley .EXE file.
Which is this one, it seems. The error doesn’t change.
I'm fairly sure that it's different at the start. But regardless, just to get the basics done first. You've uninstalled and reinstalled XNA before?
Yep. Multiple times now.
Yes, in the Control Panel. There seems to be two one is the standard one, and the other has the “Refreshed” at the end.
And you've removed both before?
Both were uninstalled. After that, I restarted the laptop, then reinstalled it.
And then restarted the laptop once more.
Aight, well, good job on that. Done as well as it could've been done.
@corrin (they/them): can you try this version of XNA? https://filehippo.com/download_microsoft_xna_framework_redistributable/
This is what I got, from what corrin linked to me.
Download Microsoft XNA Framework Redistributable 4.0 for Windows. Fast downloads of the latest free software! Click now
Yeah, that's fixed people's issues before, shouldn't be a bad download.
Though, before that, I installed the XNA from the Steam files. I think it was from the ‘_CommonRedist’ folder.
Yeah, that's generally the right way to go. ...makes me think if there's something wrong with those instead though. Who knows.
There's 2 things that can be done at this point. You can download a program that'll look at the game's dependencies to see which dll is at fault, or you can just replace the dll's with from either a machine you trust or from me; a random internet stranger who could've tampered with the files.
I could try the former first. But right now, I’m no longer on the laptop.
I’ve turned it off since it’s 01:51 AM for me.
Neat, I usually help people on the other side of the time zones.
Although, can we continue this troubleshooting thing later? Or maybe we can discuss it now so I know what to do when I get back on the laptop.
You can ping me whenever you're awake again. If you want I can leave behind some instructions on what to do with a ping.
Hmm… I’m thinking we should continue this when I get to wake up again.
This channel might get buried with new messages. ^^;;
Like I said, I can ping you, so you can find it back later.
I guess so, if you want.
Sure
I'll try to be as concise as possible.
- Download Dependencies (https://github.com/lucasg/Dependencies)
Download herelink about half a page down), unzip somewhere, and openDependenciesGui.exe - Hit open, find
Stardew Valley.exe(not smapi), open it. - Expand the first line at the top that has the SDV icon. (Click the arrow or double click the line)
- Search for the line that contains
Microsoft.Xna.Framework, but has nothing behind it. Not graphics or game. Expand that again. - In here is a list of the possible DLL's that are mismatching or missing. The problematic ones will likely look very different than the rest.
- The likely culprits are either
X3DAudio1_7.dllorMSVCP100.dll, but maybe there's another dll missing or mismatched. - Take note of which file it is, and where it's located. Copy this file from a working system (or get it from someone you trust) and replace the one on your system. Also if you want, rename the original one first to keep it as backup.
- Try starting the game again!
Might you not be able to go through all of these steps, like the game not expanding, or Xna not being expandable it means it's an even different issue that I'll have to look at, feel free to get a screenshot of where it stops being the same as explained.
Quick question 🙂 I recently got an Xbox and I was wondering if there’s a way to play with my steam save in my new xbox... or play on both with the same file/ cross play. 😅
nope, sadly
Awww 😦 Thank You so much for your reply 🙂
I need some help, Stardew Wont Start, i have a lot of mods, but whenever i click play on steam, a message pops up saying " An error occurred while updating stardew valley (missing executable)"
ok so my game runs slow out of a suddden(FPS), i tried to check if it was cause of the 2 barns of pigs i have but that only solved a little, any help?(no mods interfearing)
no mods at all or you just don't think it's caused by mods?
my mods show no sort of error in smapi and no indication of it being the cause of the problem, i dont get errors just a bit of lag
#archived-modded-support then probably
#archived-modded-support then please
they cant really help as there's no error
as a modder, yes we can help
there does not need to be an error
please post your log there and we'll take a look
oh how, i usually just give the sampi file so i thought that was the only way
thanks
I’m trying to run the game with Stardew Valley Expanded but it says I reached the maximum path length
Hey, I came back playing a couple weeks ago and I can't find the secret note #10, is there a way I can drop it easier?
that's often the last one to drop, just keep mining, chopping trees, killing monsters and scything weeds
I'm doing that, a lot, still nothing :/
be patient, it may take a while but it's not bugged
Found it!Finally, at the mutant bug lair lol
My friend is trying to connect to my host game but he keeps only seeing my character. We've both restarted our games but it's still happening. We were able to play before just fine, and neither of us added any new mods
Hey, does anybody else have a fishing bug where they get the alert but they try to reel in their line and nothing is there? I'm playing on mobile and this is now happening in both my games, it's like the time has been reduced to almost nothing for clicking to reel something in.
If anyone knows how to fix this it would be awesome
Also if anybody knows how to disable the lightning effect on Android I would appreciate 😩 I have epilepsy and I have to stay indoors during thunderstorms now because I can't deal with the flashing
Does anyone know how to deal with the game not opening?

Anyone run into a bug where spouse remodels your bedroom and it makes the stairs to the room extension unusable?
you should be able to pick up whatever your spouse placed
someone can help me?? when i try to host this happen (im on pc), idk what its that,dudee..
You loaded your save on Couch Coop mode instead of online
i believe it might be trying to host a local game with splitscreen maybe?
or yeah what he said
but this happen even if i loaded on online
ur on steam right?
it should give you an invite code in the chat if you do it online
or you can easily press shift-tab
You have to pick the Co-op button on the main menu. Then pick the Online button. Then go to the host tab and pick the file you want to host. Then go into your inventory to the controller and invite your friend
im not descriptive...
Np
Hey so I’m a little late but yesterday I was having the issue of not being able to join a multiplayer game and I had no option to enter in the code. I only saw Join LAN and it looked like this
Well I found the solution!!!!!! You have to open up another game in steam that is connected to the internet or has multiplayer and make sure that you can join multiplayer games on that game. Then directly after that, close that game and open stardew valley right away and you will be able to enter in invite codes!!!! This video shows how to do it https://youtu.be/y_-3VnafOzI
Update: Some people needed the VC-Redist 2013 install before this workaround worked.
Stardew uses a separate extension to access its online service. And it has to go through steam web helper. By opening a different program steam web helper is prompted to allow internet connection; something that Stardew is somehow unable to do at the moment. Do...
So if anyone else has that problem that’s the solution 😂😂😂 took me forever to find

Hi guys. Need some help
I was wondering if can retrieve my old save from my previous phone? I just changed my phone, and after I reinstall it, I couldn't find my old save
I thought if I connect it to my Google account, it will still be there
I tried changing them but nothing worked
Copy your old save to your new phone them put it in SV folder
It should work that way
Yes its as simple as copy and paste , there are many vids on it
The problem is I already lose my phone
Do you have any back up to your old files ?
If no I'm sorry i don't think u can restore your old save

@compact kraken Currently working on the troubleshooting steps you sent here.
Is anyone else having trouble starting Stardew? i havent been able to get it to start
!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).
Anyone knows how to fix it?
all the things on that list i did 
If you're on Steam, try verifying the intergrity of game files
@compact kraken I don’t know how to identify a bad .DLL file unless the indicator is the one with correct or incorrect under the Checksum, but I found it: Microsoft.Xna.Framework
It is this one, right?
The .DLL files with the incorrect value are: Netcode.dll, xTile.dll, StardewValley.GameData.dll and Steamworks.NET.dll
Oof! Nvm, there is actual wrong file.
It’s the OLEAUT32.dll file.
And it has missing ports.
I recall that the missing dll's are in the red. They'll also have some kind of alarm icon next to them (it's been a while since I've seen a faulty one). There might be some dll's simply complaining about not being able to find old and outdated references though, doesn't mean they're the problem. In my case there was also something off about OLEAT32.dll, but nothing was technically wrong with it.
Actually, I suddenly remember, if it doesn't have the right reference, it won't show the location of the file at all.
Yeah, that’s it. The OLEAUT32.dll is in red.
Actually, it’s the only file in red below the Microsoft.Xna.Framework.
Could you show the list scrolled to the left?
Sadly. It seems to have SysWOW64 in the part of its directory.
Hold on. Lemme start the Dependencies.exe again. It’s pretty slow.
Hold up, you never expanded the Xna dll. Could you do that and send a screen of that?
It's supposed to more or less look like this.
That’s about right.
Then your issue likely doesn't lie in dll's missing. Could I ask what the problem is?
Yeah, that genuinely looks ok
I really don’t know what caused this. Issue regarding the game, I can’t open it via Steam nor any way (file location, the SMAPI exec, Steam shortcut launching the SMAPI exec, etc.)
Doesn't even pop up a console window when starting smapi?
That would indicate a problem with .NET.
I’ll try checking further.
Nah, OLEAUT32.dll is just something that will complain.
I see the combase.dll under the OLEAUT32.dll having an error.
The problem would be missing dll's, because it can't find the right one.
Again, I have the same thing, with me my game works fine. x)
Under that shows the OLEAUT32.dll and another file, WS2_32.dll.
Oh.
Complaining things can simply indicate old deprecated dll's missing.
Then I’m bust. Can’t pinpoint the issue at this point.
Like I said, the XNA problem is only when smapi is actually able to start. If smapi can't, it means there's something wrong with your .NET, as that's what's called first before XNA is loaded.
!reinstalldeps I'd suggest doing the thing regarding the .NET.
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).
If that doesn't work, it's very likely that there's something critically broken in your windows installation.
I reinstalled the XNA Framework multiple times. Though the I don’t even know how to handle the .NET Framework to begin with.
It's just a download that'll let you repair
I have this downloaded: NDP452-KB2901954-Web.exe.
Which installs that (.NET Framework), I think.
Problem is, I need to uninstall it first.
Impossible, .NET is integral to windows 10, only way to uninstall that is to uninstall windows, which, is a last ditch effort.
It says that I need to remove .NET first, based on the link the bot sent here.
One of the first lines in the uninstall thing is
The .NET Framework cannot be uninstalled on Windows 8 and 10.
Meaning this is for Windows 7 and older, so ignore the uninstall part.
Just try the repair
Hrrmm
I have to admit, with the regular troubleshooting steps attempted, even the more thorough checks coming back clear, and the game not launching without giving any additional information because even smapi simply refuses to doesn't give me much more to work with. :/
You're absolutely sure that even when you start StardewModdingAPI.exe manually that not a single box pops up?
Oh, wait. Did I not send a screenshot here? It opens the CMD application showing errors.
Then, it pops up the game for a split second in white with the cursor at the top-left and what seems to be the menu button at the top-right.
Oh, it does pop up the game? Aight, that's a lot different then. Would also imply that smapi left a log. Don't suppose you could upload that?
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
Okay, so it could still possibly be a dll that's mismatched somehow, but not being detected. If you want I could sent you a few dlls you could try to replace, and then try the game again.
Self-defeating Disclaimer: Don't accept random dll's from internet strangers, they might contain malicious code.
Sure. That would be cool, too.
I mean, hopefully yours won’t, haha
I still haven't been permabanned from the server, that's all I got vouching for me. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I can vouch that Malibloo's track record is really good and he has done this before and no one has come back and complained about viruses. Usually comes back thinking him ;P
*sigh* Seems like there’s no solution for my fix. I don’t know really know if it’s a Windows update side of things or what.
hello i just wanna ask if it is posible to change you advanced game options mid playthrough?
Hey. So basically my gf installed some mods last night. It screwed my game up (mobile) and so i was going through deleting the new ones. Well somehow , i kept expanded but Sophia and all the new npcs are gone. Should i delete and reinstall expanded? I’m at a loss
Thanks!
This is more Steam related, but i get craft master achivement in game, but not in steam (i was logged in) Any idea to fix it?
the only way to fix it is to either get the achievement again on another save, or force it using debug commands with 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.
ok ill try it, ty
basically you just need to install this and use the debug command debug achieve. the wiki page on debug commands has the exact one you need
ty so much <3
it works. Ty, you save my life
How do i enable Fullscreen? The option is locked for me.
i use Alt + Enter
i mean inside the game
my resolution is fixed to 1440x900 and i cant change that no matter what
go to %appdata%\StardewValley and delete the startup_preferences file
still nothing
anyone know?
deleting startup_preferences should work, you may need to manually open that file and edit the resolution inside of it
another way is to edit it using code, i did that before, let me see if i can find the thread https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/achievements-not-unlocking-on-steam-fix.112578/
Hey guys! So I was having this problem, where for whatever reason the achievements would unlock IN-GAME, but they were not unlocking in Steam.
Well,...
I just lost all my progress
Trying to back uo my save but i overwtrote by accident
what platform?
I'm not familiar with how switch backup works, but from what it sounds like, you overwrote your save
Im sobbing
I don't think that's reversible
I lost so much progress
I have a question and I'm assuming I can ask here. If I want to play multiplayer on the Switch, would I need a online switch membership?
Hey Guys, im losing my mind. I tried to start the game today but it wont let me open it. I bought a 144hz Display Port a few weeks ago and i think thats the problem and i dont know how to fix it. Stardew Valley is in my taskbar i can see the intro as a picture when i click on it and it kicks me to my desktop. I hope heres a big brain who knows how to fix it
!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).
If i restart my PC should i try to open it or start reinstalling .net?
Stardew and my PC was a bit laggy, so I decided to restart my PC. Come back on, and my 75+ hour, Fall year 3 save has vanished. I tried deleting it and removing the _old in the folder, and that did nothing. The save is in the folder, but it isn't showing up in-game. Is there a way for me to get this back, cause I was at about 75% completion rate on it, and was close to shipping 15 crops and 1 of every item, so I would really like to have it back if possible.
The SaveGameInfo file is completely empty. Is there a way to get this back or repair this, as I don't want to lose this save, I've put in too much time for me to lose it all.
both savegameinfo files were empty?
No, the _old one isn't, just the main one. I tried removing the file and getting rid of the _old on the other one, but that did nothing, it just completely cleared it again when it remade a new _old file.
do you still have the _old file with data?
Yeah, I made a copy of the folder before messing with it, and have reverted everything back to how it was
The game loads fine, and also have my 2 other farms on the load screen. it's just missing this one.
@obtuse bronze it's necessary to rename both the file SaveGameInfo_old to SaveGameInfo, and the file <Farm name>_<Number>_old to <Farm name>_<Number> because these files are paired
So, I should try renaming them both?
yes
Okay, that brought it back.... I don't know why I didn't think of that -_-
Thank you xD
yay! 🙂
Hello, everyone! @compact kraken was helping me for these past two days about the failure to launch and run the game via Steam.
We’ve tried multiple methods, some being the ones that are known fixes. But last night, I finally got the game working thanks to Mali.
Before doing anything, make sure to back up the original files you’re going to replace.
Mali’s mentioned to put them in the appropriate folder. This is one of the directories I remember: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_32\Microsoft.Xna.Framework\v4.0_4.0.0.0__842cf8be1de50553\
You need to replace this file → Microsoft.Xna.Framework.dll which is located in the directory above.
Two other .DLL files are known to fix the issue: X3DAudio1_7.dll and msvcp100.dll. Replace the ones in this directory (I believe): C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\.
REMINDER: Always have a backup of the original unedited .DLL files you have before replacing them.
Additional Note: It doesn’t actually hurt to try all these methods. I even asked Mali if it’s required to restart the desktop/laptop; it’s not even necessary.
Newfound fixes consists of the .DLL file, xinput1_3.dll. You need to replace yours in the C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\.
Lastly, you need to reinstall/download/repair DirectX by downloading it from Microsoft.
Oh! And just make sure not to download their Bing toolbar if you don’t need it. Like, as if anyone does.
Also, if you've previously launched the game and failed, might as well delete the startup preference file in the %AppData%.
It’ll be in a folder of the same name [of the game, ofc].
Credits and kudos to @compact kraken for the help. Don’t ban them.

hey guys, can anyone help me to find solution for error "the server has closed the connection"? I am the host of multiplayer farm. Everything works fine until yesterday suddenly 1 of my friend has that problem.
Thankss

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
i don't think so haha
Hi guys I’m not sure where I should put this question. So I’m pretty sensitive to flashing light and I’m trying to turn it off in my game but can’t find the setting toggle. I know I’ve seen it before but can’t remember for sh!t. Lol please help if you can! These lightning storms are no good for my weak eyes

Show Flash Effects in the graphics column in settings
From the title screen or when you’re in game?
in game
Thank you so much ;-;
Is it normal that my game crashes,until i run Stardew Valley as admin?
Normal? I don't think so?
Do you know a fix?
Personally no
Does the controller work well in android 11? For some reason mine don't seem to work in this game
sup all, how can i ask question for moderator or smt?
Just ask your question. If it's specifically about reporting someone in the server you can dm bouncer. If it's for game support/bug/tech support just ask here.
it's about Steam price region
That's a question you can ask here ;P
Cause i live in CIS region and price high af (10$), instead of russian, where it cost 4$ peepoSad
idk why steam think we rich than RU
and put EU prices for all
🥺
That I believe would be on steam. Afaik game devs don't set price per reigon. They set a price in whatever currency say 15 USD and then it gets somewhat converted based on currency
I may be wrong but that's my understanding of it
Yeah, so we all buy key or gifts, if region activation can access it. Cause steam prices for this region is insanely high. Or maybe try change region and currency and activate it through vpn?
You might try humble bundle, idk if it is in your currency but they have it for normal price (at least from what I can see)
That might work then? Not too sure can't really guarantee it
I've read about that somewhere and it might be an offense that could get you banned on steam (changing regions to buy cheaper)
yeah, i read this too. that's why i try to find legal way to do this
Yeah I tried looking into that a while back since I have noticed that steam offers some games cheaper in some regions
the easyest way to wait big sale and check the price
but, i guess it has 10 or 20% off only
Yeah you could try anticipating when sales usually happen using steamdb
It reaches up to 50% discount near the holidays in our region
Try looking into https://steamdb.info/app/413150/
26 of february was 50% off
yeah, i see now
so, if now my friend from ru reg. buy me a copy as gift - he can't gift it, right?
I think that would work although I'm not entirely sure. But that is a creative way to do it. The caveat is having a friend in a region where the game is cheaper
According to what I've read it does work. So long as he gifts the game directly. Steam Gift Cards apparently don't work (not sure)
got you, try now
it says "price is to high in region you trying to gift"
so, no work
Ooo so it doesn't work
Kudos tho for being able to think of such a creative way to try and get it cheaper
so, just wait for sale?
Yeah that would be the best option
Im wondering why my controller wont work on sdv but it works on steam and other games
why some of items dont want to get foraged in statiscit
I foraged most of them but i dont see them in statistic why?
you have to sell an item via the shipping bin for it to be registered in the collection
I'm in love with your pfp
It matches the junimo role colour too!
Thanks !
Where do you have steam and/or SDV installed?
It's generally illegal to try and bypass this. There's tax laws and whatnot. I used to have a friend in Venezuela that always had games stupid cheap, but in relativity to how much bread cost to them it was just as expensive as a game was for me.
It's simply like that so that strong economies don't crash due to things being cheaper elsewhere, it's pretty heavily regulated, and Valve has to abide by it. Laws n stuff.
Right, the other reason I bothered replying is: Be careful where you buy things. If there's places that try to bypass this, it likely means they're not legal, and they're trying to scam you in the first place.
!controller -- I have no idea if this will work for you, but maybe something worth trying.
@hexed apex ```If your controller is not working for Stardew Valley on steam. Go to the top left of your steam client window, click on "Steam" > "settings" > "controller" > "general controller settings"> Another window will open up and make sure that for whatever controller you are using that the support box is checked. If you are not too sure what controller it is you can check them all and it won't do much! After that the controller provided it's plugged in or connected with bluetooth should pop up in that window and you will be good to go!
Want to play with two steam controllers? Do this: Due to how the steam controllers work they are a little funky but these bindings will allow two to work perfectly.
Player 1: steam://controllerconfig/413150/2436088362
Player 2: steam://controllerconfig/413150/2436114794```
yeah, thanks for reply. only buying from trusted sellers, no scams allowed

Hrm, that shouldn't be a special place where one wouldn't be able to get to without admin powers.
Perhaps something messed up with your save location regarding permissions.
Are you hellbent on fixing it, or are you like "Meh, too much effort"?
I want to fix it
In that case I'd suggest installing smapi first, to see what the logs say when things mess up.
!installforlog
Try this:
- Install SMAPI: https://smapi.io/.
- Run the game through SMAPI.
- Upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log.
- Share the log link here.
(You can remove SMAPI later, we're just using it to see what the problem is.)
The game doesn't crash when using smapi
weird
Hii, my friend have a problem when he's installing SMAPI for Stardew Valley mods (when he run the executable.bat for windows, the program doesn´t make the folders, so we install for the manual way) the problem is when he run the executable, the code progam show this: "[game] An error occurred in the base update loop: System.InvalidOperationException: An invalid operation occurred when trying to query the keyboard state. The result code was 0.

PD: sorry for my terrible english xd
#archived-modded-support is the place for you!
oh, sorry very much Dx
Huh, strange. Have you tried simply reinstalling the game? Unless you don't mind starting it via smapi (it also does automatic backups of your saves).
that's a better question for #stardew-valley, but no the soil does not need to be tilled
yes i´ve tried reinstalling the game multiple times
i think the fire wood beside my house is broken? when try to interact for the "Mysterious Mr.Qi" nothing happens
where exactly are you clicking? what platform, any mods?
the wood pile to the left of the front door, switch lite, no mods

Hello, I don’t know if this is the place for this so apologies if it’s not.
My friends and I have a coop farm and we don’t the Qi quests to reach the bottom of the normal mine within 7 days with the harder mine but it’s now stuck like that so I was wondering if anyone had a fix for this or knows what’s happening to it?
Thanks in advance
you have 2 ship them
PC or console?
hey, idk if there's a solution for this on the bot but since like yesterday everytime i enter a building or my own house, instead of being all black it's a lighter color around the outside and i don't know what's up. here's the ss
pc, and no mods
Playing multiplayer with mods and whenever I go down to marnies area and this happens to the others as well we have had to restart our farm 2 times due to this. We just get stuck in a infinite loading screen and have to restart. If we go down again it just constantly does it. Only does this to the other players not the host
oh wrong chat
hey! not sure if this is where i should be posting but for some reason pam isnt at the bus stop today? i dont use mods and it's not spring 25 and ive had the bus stop unlocked for a while :// anyone have any ideas?
I’ve been playing this game for 100hr with my friends and today my friend can’t join the game . How can I fix this problem
How do I join my friend's farm on Stardew on the switch? We both are playing switch version
I have two big barns and two big coops but I am unable to upgrade to a deluxe farm building
The little hammer icons that shows up next to 'build' doesn't show up against the Deluxe Barn and Coop
I play on mobile
i actually know this exact issue--turn your discord overlay off for SDV
damn, thanks dude! really appreciated :)
Hello. My ||mango|| and ||banana|| trees grew up in some glitched black sticks and they are dropping houseplants. Tried reinstalling and changing language, but it didn't work. Is there any solution or should I wait for a bugfix?
what platform? mods?
