Screenshot/Video: ```#(Archived) Update 7 - UI Issues
safe lark
timber cargo
Ps4
The game does not sit in boarders. I have looked at my ps4 settings and my tv settings the issues remains.
solid hawk
Platform: Xbox Series S
Issue: purple impatiens don’t smart transfer into chest even though there are existing flowers in the chest already. This is the only flower that I’ve noticed that does this.
proven walrus
Platform: PlayStation Issue: I can not zoom in or out when editing in furniture mode. This is only happening since the last update
graceful monolith
Platform: PS5
Issue: when you are selecting something to decorate with and you decide you want to use something else, it resets you all the way to the top of the list instead of where you left off - it never used to do this and it’s tedious to scroll through everything all over again to pick up where you left off
Video:
ivory elk
Platform: SteamDeck
Issue: Dreamlight Valley memories stuck at 21/22 despite 22 memories being visible/completed. of note, the most recently memory acquired memory also behaves oddly on hover, with the blue bar across it (intermittently it's the plain blue bar like the Unlock by progressing blank memoroes or the blue bar with a solid light blue box like you get on unfinished task-based memories, but in either case with no associated text).
attached image is of the "problem" memory itself, not the counts/hover but I can snag that, too, if needed.
short saffron
Platform: Steam
Issue: pressed "escape" too quickly after unlocking part of memory, UI did not disable (the sound for exiting UI did trigger) and I am now softlocked. Had to force shut down the game through Steam. (in image, nothing happens anymore when I try to exit)
torn osprey
Switch and Xbox, when accessing the map the game freezes and shuts down. I’ve spent alot of money on the game to play the star path so I’d like to be able to play it 🥲
devout fiber
Platform: PS4
Issue: Sometimes when using Fast Travel, the Fast Travel menu gets stuck after travel and there is no way to exit the screen. Game has to be forced closed. So I hadn't reported the issue before (because not a crash technically) but I captured video tonight.

pure sparrow
Platform: PC
Issue: Sometimes when you are done editing your furniture, it bugs out. This is it at its worst. I'm not prone to seizures but this flashing was violent enough it still made my head hurt. There's no way around this and you must close your game to get it to stop.
WARNING FOR SEVERE FLASHING IMAGES
last sparrow
Platform: PC
Issue: I've already given goofy and Minnie (in the picture) their orders and now they wont leave. On the map there are different people who have orders but they wont appear
icy marsh
Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue: Purchased a bundle with Moonstone. Item reveal page showed, and now I can't click "Continue" or exit it any way to return to the game.
ivory thicket
Platform: Switch
Issue: I can see my inventory when I’m transferring to chests. But not when I want to go into it to use an item. The game freezes and I have to do a hard shutdown.
limpid cosmos
Platform: Steam (steam deck)
Issue: Giving Beast a meal in restaurant ups the friendship gauge but the item doesn't get taken and I can't press cancel either to cancel out of the interface. Have to exit the game completely
odd roost
Platform: Xbox PC
Issue: When I try to click on this oil lamp, the picture from whatever I previously clicked on pops up instead. I am still able to purchase it, and for the correct price, however. The picture is just wrong.
fast valley
Platform: Steam Deck
Issue: if I go to the Settings I get my resolution back to 1280x720 instead of 1280x800, I have to delete proton files (on developer) in order to go back to 16x10. In that way I have to rely in the autosave.
light heron
Platform: PC
Issue: Lagging. Ever since I went to the Beauty & the Beast Realm (the moment I first went there) I’ve had nothing but lagging issues.
weary star
Platform:PS4
Issue: so I pulled up the map after decorating and when I moved around the map all the character location icons came with it? Idk that's the best I can describe it right now. To show what I mean I moved them all over the ocean 😅 Now im just going to force close because of the obvious intense lag that came with it and im scared it may break my game if I actually click anything lol.
agile glade
Platform: PC
Issue: occasionally when i boot up the game, it centre locks my mouse and i can't click anything, i can see my mouse trying to move in between flickers, but it's constantly moving back to the middle of the screen. i cannot click any of the options on the left side of the home screen. it seems to be auto clicking also. i noticed this before update 7 but it's much more frequent now.
safe lark
Platform: Steam
Issue: The "Red Dot of Doom" has returned to my game. Not consistently, it's not here every day, but most days since the update.
still narwhal
Platform: Switch
Issue: not sure if it should be posted here or under graphics but there is still a white flash when going into the map.
onyx wren
Platform: Steam
The red dot of doom is back on my event tab. Only on my laptop though, not my PC. (Same save)
cunning berry
Platform: Steam / PC
The icons arent staying in their respective places on the map, they move where you look on the map
Fixes itself upon restart of game
dull ember
PC
Map npc moving around the screen when moving my mouse around also can't zoome in and out
noticed this when i bought Summer Scrooge and bringing him out (but it may not be connected to that) started yesterday
rigid yew
PC
In the quest menu I am unable to select and view the currently tracked quest (I am clicking it several times in the screen recording), without first clicking on an untracked quest.
woeful blaze
Steam PC
Not sure if this is a UI issue but I went to the menu and this happened. I could click and cycle through the things, but escape does not work. After tabbing out, all my options are now black in the center. So I have to shut down the game to get out of this mess.
quick yoke
Platform: Xbox One X
Issue: Coconut Boba Tea image does not display under Collection > Meals. Also does not display at cooking station OR above characters’ head in Remys restaurant as their order.

shrewd ferry
Platform ps5
Issue in furniture mode menu for example everytime I scroll down the menu to select an item and place it down the menu resets to the top and I have to scroll again
odd roost
Platform: Xbox PC
Issue: [maybe this belongs here? not sure]
Received dreamlight for catching 3 fish in Sunlit Plateau when I was fishing in Frosted Heights.
deep patrol
Weird wording on this
pseudo kite
platform: Xbox Pc
Issue: Character placement on the map
The character placement on the map seems to be bugged. This placement follows me wherever i scroll to on the map, all the characters can still be tracked and are in normal spots. I've restarted the game a couple times and it works for a while but then bugs out again especially ursula she seems to be moving very slowly through the floor for some reason
prime flame
Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue: I've been having issues with my mailbox showing that I have new mail when I don't. The "Build Your Own Dreamlight Park!" mail is the only one that keeps reverting back to unread.
Screenshot/Video:
prime flame
Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue: When interacting with items, critters, etc., the prompts are invisible but I can still interact with this stuff.
uncut salmon
Platform: Xbox PC
Issue: First image: Two Art Deco paintings are in the wrong category, while there is a second one of the Woody one in the right category, Elsa's does not have a second in the Frozen category.
Second image: The ruana you get from Mirabel's final quest is placed in both the Monsters Inc category as well as Encanto
Screenshot/Video:
lament charm
Platform: PC
Issue: I don't know if it's intentional or not but Elsa's cavern doesn't show up on the map
Screenshot/Video:
dense tangle
Platform: PC
Issue: When collecting a memory or giving gifts/items to people for quests etc, sometimes the memory and gifts remain on screen. Everyone else is moving around fine, but I can't get it off my screen so have to manually close the game down with ctrl esc.
scenic cosmos
Platform: PC (Xbox)
Issue: there have been multiple times were I have a quest with the forgotten and she is not on the map. I thought there might be a timing thing, like how the others sleep in their houses. The forgotten has been in my line of sight but won’t show up on the map. Unsure if this is an npc issue or a ui issue, so I just put it here.
tribal marlin
I really didn't know where to post this, please correct me if I'm in the wrong place
Platform: X-Box app on PC
Issue: Sometimes if I serve a meal in the Restaurant, the game freezes on the 'give/cancel' screen. It stays even after I've given the order and doesn't go away no matter what I do. I have to force the game shut and restart.
Screenshot/Video:
halcyon burrow
Platform: Switch
Issue: Camera locked in place under map, screen constantly flashing in back ground. Stopping me from progressing through the game.
glossy hazel
platform: xbox series s
issue: memories freeze on screen, often occurs with the fast travel menu as well
halcyon shadow
Platform: Nintendo Switch OLED
Issue: When trying to give characters the foods they want or handing over quest items, the screen to "cancel or give" comes up, you click to give the items and while the exchange happens, the actual screen doesn't leave. Which forces me to have to close the game and reopen, sometimes it's saved, most of the time it hasn't though. It's been happening every now and then since the start but these last couple weeks it's ramped up to being almost every second or third encounter
tribal marlin
Platform: X-Box on PC
Issue: I got a memory and it wouldn't close even after I closed the Memory menu. Now I have to force close and reopen it again.
Screenshot/video: See below, spoilered for the Memory.
wintry ice
Platform: Switch
Issue: I hope this is the correct place...in multiple functions (furniture, clothing, and the meals list) after making a selection or placing furniture items whenever I reopen the item list it will scroll all the way back to the top. This is very frustrating in furniture mode when selecting multiples of the same item and having to scroll back down to find it again.
prime flame
Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue: Not sure where to put this, but I've been having some issues the past couple or so weeks that my character will lag when picking herbs, flowers, wood, crops; breaking rocks, stumps and digging. They will do the animation but will stay still afterwards before the item gets added to my inventory.
frail shell
Platform: PC
Issue: Coconut Boba tTea recipe does not have image when opening up recipes at a cooking station
hardy solstice

Lag on outside furniture mode, it literally moves frame by frame and it has been like that since update 5
tribal marlin
Platform: X-Box on PC
Issue: The same issue that has been happening in the Restaurant when giving people their orders and the screen/popup freezing, has happened in ||Ursula's new(ish) Quest 'These Legs Were Made For Walking'||, causing me to be locked out of the dialogue and not be able to read it :')
Screenshot/Video: See below, spoilered because items and dialogue for the Quest are visible.
tribal marlin
Platform: X-Box on Laptop
Issue: The same as the above post, the glitch happened again in Ursula's Quest ||Voice Of Reason|| when trying to give her the ||Voice Squid||
Screenshot/Video:
rotund dome
Platform: PC Issue: the character gets stuck in the walking animation trying to exit a room/ or house if an in game character is too close. They block the way and the animation won’t complete or cancel and the Disney character won’t move. Only way to fix is to hard close and reopen.
wraith mortar
Platform: Playstation 5
Fix that worked for me: Saving game and closing. Then go back into the game.
autumn spoke
Platform pc, almost of every time I open my inventory the game crash...Platform pc, almost of every time I open my inventory the game crash...
jaunty turtle
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Issue: Character icons on map move in a frozen formation when I move the map. Doesn't affect characters currently walking. I've seen the issue mentioned in this channel before but I have not found a fix that works for me yet (restarting game/console etc.).
glass tapir
Platform: PC/Steam
Issue: When I log on, the menu tab has the red dot as if something is new, but when I click on it there is nothing new. It goes away after, but it has been happening every time I log on for the past week or so

Issue: Coconut Boba Tea image not showing up in recipe menu when cooking and in inventory. Also not showing up in the Desserts category in Collection/Meals.
tulip kite
Help. How do I fix issues. I have sent in a help ticket. They responded on what to try but nothing works. Cleared the cache (however it’s spelled), no corruption found, and deleted and reinstalled the game. Nothing works. Help.
solid tundra
Platform: Steam
Issue: pressed "escape" too quickly after unlocking part of memo...
Still having this exact issue.
Platform: Steam Windows 11, and previously on a different Windows 10 device
Issue: Pressing "escape" too quickly after unlocking a memory closes the "menu" but not the memory but you can then never exit the memory, move, or click anywhere. Only solution is to close steam/DDLV manually with Task Force Manager, etc. (I will add I am not sure if I clicked or pressed escape. Either way, I reacted too quickly and got stuck)
