@peak osprey i tried that, not working since i cannot start the 1st time it cant make a map for smapi to install it in
have you not been able to run the game at all since you bought it?
nope it suddenly stopped working after an update @peak osprey
When i start the first thing i see is "Stardew valley is not working anymore, the program is not working beceause of a problem, close the program."
!reset
See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! (This doesn't affect your save files.) You may also want to check this list of XNB > Content Patcher conversions (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher) to see if there are already replacements for any XNB mods you may have been using :)
try this first
Is there keyboard & mouse support for the Xbox one edition of the game?
That worked it seemed microsoft xna was missing on the computer, thank you so much @peak osprey
can finally play again
ah, i thought it might be something like that! glad it's fixed
indeed
hey! my friend and I have been playing on lan for the longest time but she can't join my farm anymore, if we start a new farm she has no issues joining that one - any ideas why?
we have no mods or anything like that either
Multiplayer is currently broken on Mac
we're both windows and play on lan
Pls just read some of the chat before you type ty
Why is it that my game keeps crashing when I leave it at the total screen for the day fo rany length of time and or if I pause the game due to getting a phone call and then that crashes the gme when I come back? What can be causing that?
Does your computer go to sleep during the time away
Macbook user cannot join farm. Not an LAN game
anyone else having this issue?
Windows users joining fine
nvm just read above

Thank you Odin
it's very very much appreciated
tysm odin, i was literally about to ask lmao
No problem!
hey i posted something here about a week ago and i still cant find a solution, i bought stardew valley for my friend 1-2 weeks ago and his game crashes as soon as he boots it up, hes never opened the game before prior to this, as soon as it was bought it started doing this and has not changed. anyone have any ideas as to what i can do? we've tried starting the exe, changing volume settings, reinstalling (multiple times) and theres still 2 terabytes of space left on his computer, i cannot find any solutions online
!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 the version of xna linked doesn't work, try this one: https://filehippo.com/download_microsoft_xna_framework_redistributable/
i assume you bought it for him through steam?
yeah
yeah i'm going to guess the issue is the XNA install, hopefully that filehippo one will work--idk why, but it seems to fix this issue for some users
hello o/ i have the same problem, i crashes without any error massage after i start the game. Here is the smapi log: https://smapi.io/log/260c9277a84b4b999d8cb205ff3d5fc4
have you tried reinstalling XNA?
someone else had this same issue, let me see if i can find the messages
hmm i'm not sure how they were able to fix it 
can you try the version of XNA from that filehippo link
yes i did that to
are you playing with mods tho? bc u mentioned smapi
no they aren't, they installed it to get a log
oh ok
Hi everyone, really need help trouble shooting my game. Willing to pay $$
We don't do that here. If you just describe your problem we can get you sorted
My laptop died. Does anyone know how modded (SVE) Stardew Valley saves? Does it save to your steam account or locally to your computer?
but it does both if you have steam cloud set up. you will most likely lose the most recent day you were on, but previous ones will be ok
Thank you. Fingers crossed!
hi guys! im having an issue where the invite code isnt popping up for me. ive tried logging in and out of steam again and double checking that i didnt have any firewalls preventing me from going online, but nothings working.
Mac?

oh shittt so there isnt anything i can do?
You can try hamachi. However do note that if someone knows what they are doing they can access all your PC files as it's a feature of hamachi. I only suggest it if you are playing with irl friends
how do i use hamachi? its just my roommate and I trying to coop so im not too worried ab any files being messed up, thank u for letting me know tho!
Oh if you are in the same building on the same wifi just use lan 😛
ahh we arent in the same building at the moment, would we both download hamachi?
How do I get cloths in stardew valley? I took them off then I trashed them and now I don't have any. How do I get them back or I get new ones?
Once you make your first cloth, then Emily will approach you about using her sewing machine to tailor. Then you can make clothes.
Does the game still being worked on like with some good updates to come? Just curious.
Yes
Aaand are you android or mobile?
Android
might need to check the cache.
Other than that, I think you should do the ol' uninstall and reinstall process.
If that doesnt work, try force stopping it through the storage settings
Tysm I be back 15 min to let ya know if it worked
THANK YOU
when i sleep on a multiplayer world me and my friend get stuck at the sleep cutscene
on a black screen
any help on that?
we are on spring day 2
and its not going
Mods?
not sure if anyone will see this but i play on ios and recently my coop animals wont go in their coop at all or produce anything they won’t even eat the grass i plant outside. To test i bought a 12th chicken and that new one goes inside like normal so i’m confused why the rest don’t...
Ai pathing isn't the greatest
i dont mind if i have to start over with a new coop and new animals but when i click on them the second time to see status and selling options it kicks me from game
How do you get iridium without going into the skull cave?
4 candle Inspection..
or a mystic stone from quarry
Thanks!!!
thank you
I think i got a glitch in my game. I'm on mobile and i haven't befriended everyone in town yet, so i tried befriending them by giving them present but for some reason their hearts won't go up? I thought maybe it's because I'm married but i wasn't sure so i wanted to ask for some help
How many gifts and how frequently have you given them?
Just a few , maybe one in a week? But I've tried giving them stuff they love
guys
I got a new computer
and
booted up stadrew
however
when I try to load the game, it kicks me out
is it bc of the mods I used to have on that save on my old computer?
that I don't have on my current new computer?
Probably yes, some mods you can't go back with them
Smapi may be able to fix it but who knows
dont open to them
trying to join a coop but it is showing me "this character belongs to another player"
Uhh, was this your character previously
If it's not yours the host would have to make a new cabin at robins
ok
GUS?

My friend is trying to join my farm but cant since it only says Join LAN game she's restarted steam and the game but it still wont say to enter the link

xP
That's for local co op only
Aa icic
are the people you're gifting marriageable? if so, their hearts will only go up to 8, that's normal
oh i should close the coop door?
they never go inside tho
even in the rain
they sleep outside
and i even planted grass starters all around but they won’t eat that
No, their hearts are like 0 and I'm trying to raise them to at least 2
The most I can think of you can try is getting another coop and moving them back and forth
i would just start over but i can’t click on them to move housing it kicks me out :/
Is it affecting their happiness?
yea every time i tap on them they r always grumpy
basically i just have animals running around my farm i can’t get rid of but won’t produce anything
💧
try gifting them more often and talking to them every day. friendship decays gradually if you don't talk to them
Oooooh, didn't know that. Thank you!
i might just have to start a new farm
Hi! I want to play with a friend, but when connecting, it writes: "Connection error". Did everything from the list: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_connect_to_another_player_in_multiplayer Nothing works. There are no mods. We bought the game a few days ago. We tried to connect a few days ago and today, the error is the same. Windows. Can anyone help?
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).
Yes
The funny thing is, Hamachi doesn't work either. But we play other games in Steam without any problems.
Anyone else on Switch getting “an error occurred” and the whole game shuts down? I can’t get past winter day 25 year 2. Every time I give my gift it immediately shuts down.
You'll just have to skip the day unless you want to wait for a possible bug fix in months
was the mac multiplayer issue fixed?
They're still working it.
anyone have any idea why I'd be stuck at 27/28 people on the introductions quest? Everyone's name shows on the friendship tab
you may have forgotten to talk to Pierre directly, it doesn’t count if you buy stuff from him or if he’s at a storefront during a festival
Legit. Pierre's tricky like that.
If you haven't actually met someone, doesn't it show a ????? on the friends tab under their picture, instead of their name?
Just try talking to everyone again
Also, I love your Tracy Chapman profile pic.
thanks ❤️
ya I'll try talking to everyone again. I actually have hearts with everyone except Harvey so maybe it's him
good luck!
Would bootcamp make the stardew valley co-op work for Mac users?
Or would it just perpetually run 2 systems and I can't do anything about it and still can't play stardew?
does Kent maybe count?
Kent doesn't count cause he doesn't show up till like year 2
Maybe willy? Cause he doesn't show up till like day 3 or so?
lol nah it's not Willy I'm about to start my second year I'm really not sure
Oop
That kinda sucks
what about the wizard?
nah he doesn't count for that quest
it's gotta be bugged cuz I actually went and talked to everyone a second time
thx 4 the advice tho everyone appreciate it
i'm hosting a co-op world but LAN is the only option. i've restarted the game and steam. im on macos

Hello!! Has the issue with finding the bat skeleton on the switch fixed?
There hasn't been an update so no, but people are still able to find it.
hey i have a question is there a way to find a backup for more then 1 day ingame ? i dont want to load a backup for 1 irl day xD
Not me 😭 been looking for forever
how do multiplayer save files work? Is my friend's save on my computer as i am the host?
Yes, it's just one save for the farm even in multiplayer
The save backups at least stardews are one in game day
Ive tried everything but cant see the show invite code for multiplayer
what to do?
please help
oh
i just see the tweet
nvm
hey guys, does anyone know why my connection to the game keeps failing? tried playing with my bf but this issue has been occurring for the past 2 weeks or so
If one of you is playing on Mac, multiplayer is currently broken on that platform. But if not,

my friend, who has had stardew for a few years now, does not have the option to enter an invite code for co-op
it was there a year ago when we played then, but it 'disappeared' somehow
and when hes hosting a world, he cannot use an invite code, only lan
mac or windows?
or console etc?

Hello, could I get some help?
I just bought Stardew Valley on my PC via Steam but it wont start
mods?
I’ve already tried a variety of solutions I found online, but I still get the “stardew valley has stopped working” error immediately after I click play
No mods as far as I know as this is freshly bought and installed
reinstall maybe

hi, I'm having a problem with co-op stardew. it wont let me join any co-op farms even if i've already played on them before. my "enter invite code" option on the join co-op screen is gone. I've tried a number of things and nothing seems to be working, I'm not sure what to do
Are you on Mac?
yeah I am, unfortunately

i had no idea, thank you!
Is there any update on the MacOS mp fix eta? Stardew seems to be a way for a lot of people to stay connected these days; myself included. T_T
Nope, could be weeks tbh
It's 100% on steam, steam updates are usually a few weeks apart
I doubt they'd do a special update just for one game that broke ;P
The last update according to my steam updating 3 times (the usual) was June 11th
i’m desperate at this point to get rid of my chickens 💧
any mac players know how to mod:) ?
#archived-modded-support can help you
okay thanks
Is multiplayer working on the GOG client? Considering if $15 and swapping saves is worth working around the wait
[For mac]
ye i was wondering if there is a way to play the game without steam involved so i can play multiplayer on mac lol
Hamachi, but there are risks. If the person knows what they are doing they can access all your files it's a feature of hamachi
Gog uses steam mp servers still
!log
Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
Does anyone else have the problem where your game will drop fps every couple seconds when you're walking?

no mods
I hear a lot of people are having this issue and was wondering if anyone here knew how to fix it
I've actually not seen this issue in a long time
Last I've seen it was maybe 5 months ago
Is there a known fix or something?
This may help
Yeah that didnt work
Then no not really that usually the fix, I suppose it could be your hardware if it's super old
I'm not really sure then, hopefully someone can help you, you might search the forums too if you haven't
Yeah i've been looking but haven't found a fix yet
Might try reddit too sometimes they are good at this stuffs
oh truee
Mods?
nope

Hello, I just bought Stardew on Steam for PC and it won’t start. I’ve tried many things but it still says “stardew valley has stopped working” everytime I start it. Could I get some help please?
!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 already did that and it didn’t work, but I’ll give it a shot again
If it helps, the Problem Event Name js BEX
Any idea if there's crossplay between PC and Switch?
Nope
Yup, still didn’t work
Any other suggestions?
The Problem Event Name changed though
It’s now CLR20r3
try this version of XNA https://filehippo.com/download_microsoft_xna_framework_redistributable/
how do i get uhh the community center
How long does it normally take for the devs to fix stuff? Asking for the mac multiplayer
Steam f*ed up multiplayer, but it won't be changing updates for individual games
How is it possible for steam to mess up one specific game? Isn’t it up to the developer?
If all other games are okay, then maybe the game developer should make the adjustment?
It is not up to the developer, it worked perfectly before the updated, now it doesn't work.
But yes this is 100% on steam to fix, CA has said that
Wouldn't say it worked "perfectly", since the same bug happened to many before, although mostly solvable by restarting the game, steam or other ways. Still a pain tho6.
What I’m saying is: Steam should be the one to fix it, since it’s at fault for causing the issue in the first place, but since they’re not going to do that, it ends up as the dev's responsibility
We don't have any proof that steam won't fix it yet
It is said that when you do the attack spam with any mace's secondary attack, it is possible for your game to soft-lock
how locked is the game then? do you just need to restart?
Has anymore been said about the mac multiplayer issue? Like an ETA?
When something more is said it will be put in #bulletin-board
!lvl
You can use commands in #governors-mansion :)
Is there anyone that has any solutions to multiplayer not working recently in macOS
There is no solution, besides waiting. Or using hamachi which we don't directly suggest as people can access your files as it's a feature of hamachi. I'd only use it if you are playing with IRL friends
any time frame that i should be waiting for? its an IRL friend, but bad experience with viruses and hamachi
Unknown
Probably at least a week
It's on steam so following steam if it's the next steam update it may be 2 or 3
alright thanks :) waiting it is
Could I get some help? My Stardew isnt opening on account of “A procedure imported by “Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics.dll” could not be loaded. I’ve already installed and reinstalled XNA multiple times.
Anyone on who can help me?
reinstall both game and smapi (make sure to keep a backup of the saves 😉 )
could also maybe be because you're on windows xp i think
Is that xp?
Huh xp can't run it due to direct x
that's
weird
Why is it weird?
whats ur computer specs?
It’s a pretty low end computer to be honest. But Stardew isn’t the heaviest of games.
ik but
bc that's the windows xp GUI
You can change your GUI to optimize the machine for more performance
oh
The XP GUI is simpler and thus takes less resources
have u ever run stardew before on this compter?
The issue isn’t that the game is stuttery or laggy; it just never starts
No, it’s freshly bought sadly
I’ve tried every fix online
oh
does it have a gpu
Well that actually answers everything
I have another laptop that can run it; thing is that’s my work laptop and this tiny one is for portable gaming. Which is why I want Stardew to run on it
Oh really? Let me look into that. Will get back to you soonest.
search on youtube how to play directx10 games on directx 9
Oh right, I did that fix already
The one where you use dxcpl to make it compatible
Let me look for other similar fixes
im pretty sure you will find a way
Okay, I’m pretty sure DirectX isn’t an issue since I fixed that already, plus the error message says nothing about DirectX
@worthy lake it still says the issue with “a procedure imported by ‘Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics.dll’ could not be loaded”
Clearly the problem is with XNA, but I have already installed and reinstalled it, as well as downloaded and replaced the file above. Still doesn’t work.
do you have it through steam?
Yeah, it’s on Steam
Already downloaded installed and reinstalled this file multiple times
ok wait
Sure
Hahahaha not an option sadly
have you considered posting on the forums? a lot of people are active and helpful there
Hmm
I’ll give it a shot, but honestly the forums are what got me to this discord to ask for help haha
oh ok
Another thing it could be, is that integrated GPU also doesn't even have an up to date shader model, aka stardew needs 3.0 that has 2.0 dunno if there is some fix for that
Will check that out
That's honestly my best guess at this point
nooo i dont think so
Not sure what Game Studio is. Do enlighten me please.
i mean stardew launched on my 14 yo computer
this is the best I got at this point
Besides just saying get a new computer but that's a bit mean xP
No worries, my work laptop can run it. But like, it’s a work laptop hahhaa. This one is just for carrying around to coffee shops and whatnot so its compact. So I’d love it if Stardew ran here
did u try?
Downloading; will update you
ok
It requires certain programs to be installed; downloading and installing those first
oh ok
is anyone aware if the multiplayer is fixed for macOS??
nope
I just wanna be gay farmers with my bf
done?
Still no; the program requires a lot of prequisite programs sadly
Don’t worry, I’ll message as soon as it’s done
I hope this works; the additional programs are a pain to install
this game is sooo good its worth it i promise
I hope it works as well 
It’s installed. Drumroll please
Aaaaand
No dice
Oh well, at least I tried
Any other suggestions or should I just give up?
if you can figure out where the xna framework dll is, maybe see if it's actually there?
game not starting up again what do i do
i assume you trust your bf, so you could try hamachi
Mods?
Hello !!
I am playing stardew valley on a mac. I played with some friends multiples times but since yesterday I can’t host or reach any games.
When I host a game, I do not have the “invite a friend” button or the code to send to my friends
And when my friends invite me by stream it doesn’t work. Last but not least, when I go on the coop button I only can chose the Lan one, I can’t enter the code to play online.
I did a lot of research on internet, I delete et download back steam and stardew valley, I check my wifi, my username, my updates…
I don’t have any other idea
Did you have the same problem and did you find a solution ?
Thanks for having reading this message, I really want to play again with my friends
(Sorry for my English, at least I tried 😂)
anyone know why my game not loading up again.

no mod i dont mod
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 you had mods I'd just have to send you to another channel where they specialize in it
i prefer playing it regularly earning and learning
i dont need mod i just want to play my game.
I dont need cheat codes.
I just want to get my game to load up and it wont
i click play and it doesnt do anything
^
i did reinstall it and still doing the same thing
Mods?
Do you remember what you did that day
play offline several months
someone can tell me where can i find those wood things?
off of steam?
yep
I think that's a mod? if you ask in #archived-modded-support they can probably confirm or deny that in a minute
no mods
Did steam popup when you went back online saying something about your save
was replying to someone else ;P
Oh it doesn't open at all?
oh really? didnt know <3 thank you
You've done that already?
@peak osprey Senor save doctor, I think you may have more clue whats going on here than I do if you're around
as something unusual, in farm i have a cop house
playing offline
sorry, im mexican, my english is a crap
Not that bad tbh, I'm really not sure I'm hoping corrin knows because they are great at save stuff
its a save with 200 hours : (
!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.)
ok, alrredy install
this is after you tried going back a day?
did you do that for both the save and the SaveGameInfo files?
and the save no longer appaers
it looks like there's an issue with the SaveGameInfo right now, which is what allows the save to appear in game
amh
I already had the problem with the save before
I solved it by going back to the day before
I had the same error again, and I wanted to solve it the same
I did the same, the save appeared in the title screen
but the game closes
and the save no longer appeared
when you went back to the day before, did you change the name of the SaveGameInfo file or just the save file?
can you try it with the next day's SaveGameInfo, or a SaveGameInfo from another save? you can try making a new save as well and use the one from that
amh, no, only have files load in the SMAPI
I got a new pc and downloaded and opened stardew and it doesn’t trun on it just boots me out
What does that mean?
Is it because I don’t have the mods from my old laptop?

so has steam fixed multiplayer
No, it's going to be a few weeks.just pay attention to #bulletin-board for an update.
i see i just had a steam update so i just had to ask
I just changed my farm type from Hilltop to Standard. Any idea how I can get rid of the bushes at my farm location?
theres a mod for that if you're willing to download it (in case you dont play with mods)
YouTube can help you better than we could 😛

any guide for mp issue? cant join friends server
invite code method doesn't work, hamachi does tho
trying to launch the game twice doesnt fix it anymore?

yes
How rare is it?
#stardew-spoilers would know
every tile per night
1/100 i ithink, will only generate on walkable tiles
Do the slime types in the slime hutch do anything different than the other colors because I have just tiger slime in my slime hutch
iirc different coloured slimes drop different things once killed
Ok thx

Last steam update broke it
oh ok cheers
is the mac multiplayer thing something that has to be fixed on CA's end, or steam's?
steam's
is there a way to switch host? by like using savefiles or something?
yes, but it's very hacky and last i heard it softlocks certain parts of the game
what you could do is send the save to your friend and let them take over your character, if you do that you can change your names at the shrine in the wizard's basement so you aren't playing as each other
thanks
F, steam is gonna take their sweet ass time fixing it
yeah, multiplayer was already really finicky and they haven't done much about that, so it might take a while :/ i'm sure the devs are communicating with them about it but who knows how long that'll take

When will the update release for Android?
!Mobileupdate
As for mobile: I'm committed to seeing the 1.5 update come to mobile, and I'm doing what I can to make that happen as soon as possible. There's no current timeline I can give for when that will happen, though.

Did a switch update just drop?
Why is it when I pause my game it crashes.I f I leave it in the esscape mode where the menu pulls up or if I leave it at the end of day tally screen it crashes if it is left there for any length of time.
@raven hedge yes it did!! I went to the volcano and got a bat 6th floor! So happy!
Oh brilliant!! So pleased for you!!! It’s been bugging me too!!!!
Driving me nuts!! Finally got it, good luck to you finding one soon!
Someone help me please i bought stardew but wehn i run it a white window opens up and then crashes :')
I bought the game from gogcom after it wouldnt work from steam and ran into the same problem
i think my friend had the same problem and they could never fix it so i hope you find out soon <33
anyone wanna play multiplayer un modded??
is there a problem with hosting on mac?
Yes there is
The last steam update messed up mac multiplayer.
They're still working on a fix.
ohh tysm
Np!
There's an update from ConcernedApe on the Macos thread on the Steam discussion board for those who are following it
can you please provide a link
We can no longer host our shared farm using the local network connection on our switches in Stardew. We had been playing for the first year and a half just fine but now it only lets us join over the internet. Problem is we can't play somewhere without internet now and even when we do its laggy
found it, thank you for the update!
We played one time over Online play because we were in different places for a few days and now local just doesn't work anymore. But if I start a new local farm they can connect to it
So it's not a network issue on the switch.
Is there a fix or steps to be able to play again?
https://steamcommunity.com/app/413150/discussions/0/3112530528202635730/?ctp=21#c3075377162301708622
oohhh, so i bet terraria has the same issue we do
fingers crossed that GOG's fix also fixes the previous multiplayer weirdness
hi
yea multiplayer isn't working for me and my sister the invite code isn't showing up
like the enter invite code
Mac?
Yep
Are you in the same house?
yes
Use lan 😄
also lan doesn't work for us either
huh
yea its weird
Are you using your local ip?
no
huh
That's splitscreen xP
oh
Lemme launch the game
it says accepting ip adress
how would I conect to the lan game?
like how would I get the ip adress?
thanks for the help btw
google "what is my ip" and then it pops up
uh then you just use that?
yea I put it in there
it should work
its connecting
I don't think that part is broken >.>
uh is it supposed to be super long
uhh
I mean
welp uh
If you have a big screen you could just do splitscreen 
Well and if you have at least one controller
is it the public ip?
we play on steam
does lan on steam not work?
It should
darnit
Maybe that's broken too >.>
question
is there a way to turn a co-op save into a singleplayer save
if im not the owner of the farm
If you have the save file yes
You just load it in sp, but you'll be the hosts character

my mods wont load when i pull up my game and i cannot get into my worlds since my mod launcher wont load, i tried restarting, validating my stardew files, and redownloading smapi, what should i do?
We can help in #archived-modded-support, this channel is for vanilla game support!
ok awesome! i asked in there, tysm
Im using controller on the PC version. Im able to place items into kegs in diagonally but im not able to do so with the casks in the same layout. I can still access them if i use the mouse.
Is this a bug or is it meant to be like that?

ok thanks, i guess i'll just use mouse for those corner casks. not too big of a problem
Hi! I don't know if you've figured out how to find your IP yet or not, but I'm on Mac too and had some trouble figuring it out when I tried to play with my brother also. If you go to 'Systems Preferences' and double click 'Network', it will be right underneath where it says "Turn Wi-Fi Off/On". It'll say "Wi-Fi is connected to <<You're internet name>> and has the IP address <<Your IP address>>. Then you can just copy and paste that into the same spot as before and the farm name and your sister's character should pop up!! Hope this helped!
Hi, so I used to play Stardew valley a lot on my xbox one(xbox has reached the end of its life), and I can’t get it to run on my phone without it crashing. I got a chromebook recently and I followed a stardew valley reddit post to get linux on it to play stardew on it, but i’m running into a coding issue. I wanted to see if I could get the help of someone more experienced than I, it would be greatly appreciated!
:O thanks for telling me!! I will try that tmr
I'll dm you if I get any results
i was playing co op with my brother a while ago and we left the game but now it wont let me start the local co op? we play on lan
its asking me to press 3 horizontal lines but i dont use the controller? im confused
i dont have a controller
like him
i cant join my friend ://
Are you trying to do multiplayer or split screen...?
If it's multiplayer that's the wrong menu, and if you're on Mac multiplayer is broken
I think this might be a spoiler for the update so I will block out the things that involve it, but I'm at the Feast of the Winter Star and I have|| unlocked Ginger Island.|| I was given|| Leo ||for the gift exchange but|| he isn't in Stardew Valley yet, ||and I can't progress the event now. I can just leave but I'm kind of sad that I can't give a gift or receive one now. 
are you on pc or console? because it can kinda be resolved on pc i think, not console tho
I'm on pc!
ah
you could edit your save... or someone else could so someone else is the person you're gifting
I found 3 prismatic shards a few in-game days before this so I might just have to take the L, but thank you!
you'd only lose the current day (winter 25) if you close the game
Hi I should have some help for me as the junimok take honey?

is it a good idea to try Stardew Valley Expanded in multiplayer?

but it works yes
aight thanks
For some reason when I ship coffee beans this doesn't increase, its the last thing I need for polyculture and im a bit stuck
Do you have any mods?
no
Hmm, are you shipping them from the main farm shipping bin?
yes
Hm.. are other things going up when you ship it or is it just coffee beans that are not
just coffee beans as far as i can tell
I'm assuming you've tried restarting the game ect?
yh
Well, I personally have no idea since it's just that one, and I can't find anything on the forums 
Is there a way to put my save file on my computer to the switch and play it from there?
Thank you
Is there a place where I can find the latest switch patch notes?
https://twitter.com/ConcernedApe/status/1406097009229008900
This appears to be about it

Any news on multiplayer for mac users?
Nope
Sad
No problem!! I hope it works out!
Any mac players here? I’m unable to use a controller in game 😦
Damn kinda wanted to know if the multiplayer switch lags were fixed
Probably not, that's due to switch hardware being not that great
The only thing that may ever fix that is a switch pro
Has anyone experienced issues when trying to create a new save on the Switch?? My friend who lives on the other side of the state is having trouble. She said she clicked ok when she was finished creating her character and then a blue screen popped up with the music repeating itself not the usual beginning of the game
Is there a way to get this fixed? Cat sleeps a lot In front of doorways
Its the Android version of Stardew Valley.. this problem always causes me to wait for hours in the evening
you should be able to push them out of the way
How would I do that? No matter how much I tap on the cat, or baby at times, it never moves.
Won't work

@worthy lake I’m on the console with the world I want to save I hit upload to online storage is that correct so far

Ok cool
OMG IT WORKED @worthy lake thank you so much you the best
Also thanks pillow

Also I created this world in 1.4 is it still possible to get to ginger island?
Ok ty

what happened
We were playing together. Shes on Mac im on windows and were both having issues with it. Makes sense if if not currently working on Mac.
yup, that'll be the problem then :(
3 more months
Anytime yall think it will be fixed or is it just whenever?
I honestly expect at least a month
But if it's anything to go by multiplayer in general has been screwy for 5 months due to steam xP
apparently it's actually due to GOG, since sdv uses GOG servers
It must use both then
oh btw @peak osprey this person might need your help :p
CA's post says it's a GOG problem and he's communicating with them, so hopefully there'll be a fix soon. it also affects all XNA based games so probably there's pressure on them from terraria community too
oof yeah i've seen that bug a bunch, i think i could save edit a fix but it sounds like they might've just skipped the gift exchange that year
Sorry to bother u guys again but I just checked and it didn't work. I used the xnb download
weren't you asking about a mod in #archived-modded-support before? you can get mod assistance there :)
oh sorry I though I was on there haha
is cross save and play available?
Between what?
Switch/Pc
Nope
Ok, thanks
hey guys i need some serious help, im trying to figure out how to download mods for stardew on my mac and im just having no luck
SWITCH: Can someone please help me how to host a farm, can I please practice with you:(? And would love to be friends & play!!
please ping/DM me!🐥🐥
ive been having an issue on my game where it doesnt allow me to start a co-op farm via ip, and will only let me use local co-op, is anyone else having a similar issue?
in addition, i am unable to join anyone else's co-op farm, as my connection always fails
ip is for local coop
are you on mac by any chance
yes im on mac
i feel like i explained my issue very poorly lol, essentially when i host a farm, there is no button giving me a code to share with others
and when i try to join a farm, it always says connection failed

great thank you! so im assuming that as of now there is no fix for this bug?
nope not really
Go to your options and at the bottom should be a button that says photo mode or screenshot mode or something like that
I think you have to be specifically on your farm as well unsure about that part but it makes sense
I would like to ask why my orange tree isn't growing in my greenhouse ... *see my screenshot

I believe that it can't grow due to the water reservoir but I may be wrong, everything I can find online shows that you don't plant in front of it
guys can someone help me pls

Feel free to ask your question or describe your issue here, and someone will help if they can :)

So how long will this problem be fixed?
no idea, it's a steam/gog issue
thx so much ❤️
SWITCH: So I cant seem to find a mummified bat no matter how long I break stones and slay lava lurkers. I know there used to be a bug where it doesn't show up a while ago but I thought it was fixed.
Anyone knows what I should do?
have you updated your game?
hey guys I have a quick question: my game (i'm on a macbook) has a bug wherein I've gotten all 7 stardrops but it doesn't register in the code itself that I've gotten the ones from the mine and the museum completion, and I'm really trying to get perfection with my year 5 farm on vanilla before getting back into modding. I know that CA addressed in a thread (https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/help-have-all-the-stardrops-but-game-says-im-missing-one.3746/) how to resolve the issue with the one for the mines/what to edit in the code, but I don't know how to register/edit the one missing for the museum. Could anyone help me out with this?
So I've been grinding to get the true statue of perfection but for some reason the game tells me I haven't found all the stardrops.
I have full energy meaning that I couldn't have missed one, not to mention I remember getting all of them, went and checked the files on an external website and it...
the things I'll do for a cute scene with my frog husband on the hilltop TT-TT
I'm 90% sure just putting on smapi may detect and fix it
really? i'll give that a try! i just backed up my vanilla file
when i re-open the game, should it be through smapi?
gotcha thank you!! ill go do that now
hm... checked statue in-game through smapi and still nothing @worthy lake
Hello people, I am in dire need of assistence. Perhaps one of you could help a humble lady out? Who also happens to understand NOTHING about computers
code still missing the indicators for mines and museum
So, I've been trying to join my friend's multiplayer game, but the "Enter Invite Code" button isnt there?
And I've already tried reinstalled, restarted the computer, and to no avail
Are you playing on a mac? I know CA's currently working on multiplayer issues for mac players

yes ):
oh damn, thank you! 😦
@peak osprey got something for you
ty shinyporgyon and hi corrin!
hey! since you grabbed smapi already, can you try typing this into the black console window?
debug perfection
where should i type it? ive never messed with console windows before
if you alt tab, there should be a second window that's running alongside SMAPI
this one here?
yup!
ok! i closed out the game before taking the screenshot, should i reopen it before typing it in or can i do it now?
(sorry for all the questions i've broken my game before and dont wanna repeat the experience haha)
reopen it and load the save!
ok save is running! so it's literally just "debug perfection" and enter, nothing else? no brackets?
'console commands: an item with the same key has already been added'
rip no dice TT-TT i am still Dropless
that's ok tho! i know ill have perfection in my heart. thank you guys haha
hmm that's odd, usually it will say something like "there was no output"
in that case save editing might be the way to fix it
gotcha. you wouldn't happen to know the specific code for the museum stardrop, would you?
hey, i have a question. is cross-platform play available for sdv?
Nope
I mean, cross-platform multiplayer isn't available. But if you're looking for ways to move your save from one platform to another, then that's possible in some cases.
okay thanks, just wondering
So, its in the wrong place?
okay so me and my friends are trying to play co op on pc and whenever my friend tries to joint he server it doesnt let him join via code, but it does for me and my other friend, any reason why this is happening?
are one of you on mac?

i've broken my Stadew Valley game....

it will start but crashes if i join or load one of my saves...
i've verified files but it says that theres nothing wrong with the game
Mods?
oh uh, let me check..
Just a yes or no 😛
oh sorry, no mods this time but i do sometimes
oooh wait, so, if you start a lobby while using the modding API, then go to vanilla, it'll crash cause the lobby was originally modded?
errorlog?

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?
Heyo, I just got stardew valley on my mac but it doesn’t recognize my controller. Steam recognises it and I use it to launch the game, but the game itself doesn’t recognize it. Any tips?
For reference, it’s a PS4 wireless controller and I’m on big sur
!reset
See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! (This doesn't affect your save files.) You may also want to check this list of XNB > Content Patcher conversions (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher) to see if there are already replacements for any XNB mods you may have been using :)
n-no it's fine, it works when i launch Modded API
you can't use a save with SVE in vanilla
if you want to play unmodded, start a new save
yeah...figured,,
I was having the controller recognition problem before I had enabled steam to recognize my controller.
Yes I'm asking a question about the Mac networking issue, but it's more about the code behind it.
Does anyone know what's actually caused the issue with Stardew networking on Mac? It being triggered by the update, Stardew being the only one I know effected, and only effecting Mac seems so specific and I'd love to know why it's happened.
The only thing I can imagine is that the netcode was using some long deprecated function that finally got chopped or something.
I did try to take a look through some of the networking code myself, but I don't have any experience with routing things through steam's servers, so it's a bigg task to try to comprehend it.
Xna that too 😛
this is all we know rn
Alright, didn't know about that. Hopefully some info comes about after it's fixed, this stuff interests me way too much.
Thanks!
Oh that sucks, hopefully because it’s affecting several games they’ll get to it sooner

Hi everyone! I'm pretty new to playing this game but I'm loving it. I've hit an impasse of sorts though. I don't know how I managed it but I've lost my axe. Apparently you can't make one without one either. Any thoughts or advice? Thanks in advance.
Did you check the lost and found
Hi! They’ve made it so you can’t throw out or sell your tools so I’m sure it’s around somewhere, are you sure you’ve checked every chest? Maybe you put one down somewhere and forgot?
As far as I know you can’t throw them out anyways.
I have checked every chest multiple times. Restarted the game. Restarted laptop. Where is the lost and found?
Mayor's manor
it's actually the axe and the black sword. no i didn't die
Might check the adventurers guild too just in case
