Hi everyone,

A bug-fix patch (version 1.4.1) is now available for Stardew Valley, which fixes some of the bugs found since the launch of 1.4. Here are some of the more important fixes:
  • MULTIPLAYER: Fixed an issue where farmhand's separate wallets would be reset to 500g if the host was playing on Mac or Linux
  • Fixed problem harvesting crops with the golden scythe.
  • Added a new Gamepad Mode selection to the options menu. The default setting ("Auto") will automatically switch between keyboard and mouse controls depending on the last used input (this should be fine for most players). "Force on" forces the game to use gamepad logic, similar to earlier versions of Stardew Valley. "Force off" disables the gamepad and can be used if you only play the game using a keyboard and mouse.
  • Fixed bug where you could enter the sewer on ...

Hi everyone,

A new patch is out for PC platforms that fixes some bugs found since the launch of 1.4. A big “Thank you!” to everyone who posted bug reports… I hope this patch will resolve any issues you’ve been experiencing.

A full (and spoilery) changelog for the patch is listed below:

 

Stardew Valley 1.4.1 Bug-Fix Patch

Bug Fixes:

  •  Fixed an issue where farmhand’s separate wallets would be reset to 500g if the host was playing on Mac or Linux
  •  Fixed the incorrect ordering of NPC gift tastes so now tastes should remain as they were in 1.3.
  •  Trash bear no longer appears on festival days, preventing a potential crash.
  •  Fixed an issue where reclaiming the Insect Head, Neptune’s Glaive, Forest Sword, or Carving Knife from Marlon would cause Clint to appear to be upgrading that weapon. This could cause you to lose a tool if you were already upgrading a tool when this happened.
  •  Fixed problem harvestin...

there is a patch coming out later today that will have an option to "force gamepad mode on" which will prevent the game from trying to switch between gamepad mode and keyboard mode intelligently. I'm hoping that will fix the problem many people are describing

I have used mods before. But since then I have completely removed all files and reinstalled, so no mods currently installed.

I did verify files when I first encountered the crash and steam said all files were fine.

This crash doesn't happen for me, but I'd like to figure out what's going on. Could you send me your save file? If you can, It's located in %appdata%/StardewValley/Saves ...just zip the whole folder with your character's name on it. Send me a DM with either a link to the zip or we can figure out an alternate way to get the file over to me

BUG REPORT:

When you pass out in the mine and have the choice to buy back your lost items, the letter arrives in the mail with an empty box. The item is not there. No way to buy it back at Marlons. The item missing is the Obsidian Sword. Playing on steam pc, four corners farm, host is on mac.

This could potentially be due to an issue if the host is playing on mac or linux. There will be a patch out later today that fixes a major problem with that, and it might fix that issue as well. Please let me know if it continues after today's patch, though.

Okie dokie, sooo... I'm trying to change my character name in the appdata for my save file post-1.4 update. Booting the game up shows two save files (sometimes both with the new name, sometimes one with the old and one with the new). Clicking on the top file (the new name in both of the above situations) loops back to the title screen. Clicking on the second file (sometimes the new name, sometimes the old) opens the game, but always has the old name in all the usual places you would find the name. No crashing occurs. Am I messing something up here? I feel like I'm following all the steps for a successful name change, but it's just not sticking!

There are quirks to changing your character name that you need to know if you're going to attempt an edit. Couple of things to note... There are two files the game uses, the actual save file, which looks like _, and then a file called SaveGameInfo. The load game menu only uses SaveGameInfo to populate its list. The name that shows up in the load game menu isn't directly connected to the name that will actually appear when you enter the game. If you want to change your name in your save file, I think the first thing to try is to open the actual save file, find & replace all instances of the old name with the new. Save, then make sure to change the name of the file itself, as well as the encompassing folder to all match the new name. Changing the name found in SaveGameInfo is optional, but doing so will make it easier to identify your work in the load game menu.

Bug: When first seeing the community center cut scene with Mayor Lewis the game will crash if you are only using a controller.

I have tested several times and am able to consistently reproduce it.

All I have to do to reproduce is to walk into town from my farm anytime after 8 am while only using a controller and not touching the keyboard. The game will show the cut scene up until my player and Lewis walk into the community center where the game will crash on the black screen when we walk in together.

Entering the town from any other entrance (from robin shop or marnie's farm) does not trigger the cut scene at and when leaving and entering from your farm entrance the cut scene will trigger and still crash if keyboard is not touched.

This can easily be worked around by using a keyboard to enter the cut scene and progress through it then continue with controller after the scene has finished

Error Log here:

Message: Object reference ...

thanks for the report. Do you, or have you ever used mods? If not, please try verifying the integrity of your game files (in steam... right click game > properties > Local Files > verify integrity of game files)

After the new update, it's full of glitches, some sprites have flaws like the cursor and I can't use bombs or splinkers on the farm. This only happens in one save game, in another is normal, my map is 4 Corners. Whenever I try to use a bomb or splinker, it becomes invisible and disappears from the ground.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem? The sprites are very strange, when your character will eat your eyes disappear...

I don't use any mod. I would not want to create a new game and restart all my working hours... This only happens on the map 'Four Corners'.

have you ever used a mod in the past?

Thank you, yes I'm aware of this bug, and it will be fixed in a patch that's coming very soon

I wonder how that would happen by accident, seems super specific

It's because the game has a concept of individual items, as well as "Categories", and there are also universally liked items and categories, and there is an order it checks those groups in to determine if an NPC likes a gift or not. That order accidentally got changed in 1.4

so it wasnt my fault thank god it was just the games horray
my bf ended up helping me with a simple fix so thanks anyway

Glad to hear it's fixed. Could you give me some more details of what was wrong, or what the solution was? If it's a bug or problem with the game I'd like to fix it.

I read the fixes but one thing I couldn't find... I lost one of my favourite rarecrows (the mouse one) due to being destroyed by wilderness, after leaving my farm land unattended for too long.

Was that ever fixed? (At least for extremely rare items?) because as far as I know, that rarecrow is irreplaceable.

In the bug fix patch that is coming soon, you'll be able to buy the two rarecrows that are currently irreplaceable, after you've unlocked them.

The gold reset in multi-player by the separate money

Currently that will happen if the host is playing on mac or linux. It will be fixed in a patch this is coming very soon.

Bug: I went to talk to Clint to check on my axe upgrade. I had my forest sword highlighted when I clicked on him and in his dialogue he said that he was still working on my forest sword. Then when my axe should of been ready the notification popped up saying that my forest sword was ready. When I went to pick it up he gave me a forest sword instead of my axe! So now I don’t have an axe, I checked all my chests and it’s no where.

PC, 1.4, English, single-player

Update: Lewis dropped it off the next day, but my upgrades are gone.

Sorry about that... this will be fixed in the upcoming patch

this is actually a bug that will be fixed soon. The gift tastes weren't supposed to change like that.

I've heard several reports of this and I really want to get to the bottom of it.F or anyone in this comment thread, giving me as much details and info as possible could be helpful. Like... when you disconnected and rejoined, had the host played any days without you? How many people are playing on the farm? Did you start the game with separate money or did you change partway through by going to the mayor? Any more relevant info you can think of is helpful too. thank you & sorry for any inconvenience this bug has caused

Okay it's confirmed that this bug happens when the host is on a mac (or linux). There will be a fix for this in the patch that is coming soon. In the meantime there's no way around it except to host the game on a windows machine

Hey guys!

I'm playing the four corners map with my friend on the new 1.4 update. She is hosting, and I'm joining the online farm. We are playing with separate gold, and each time I exit the game and we re-start our session, I revert to 500G. It doesn't matter if I am over or under that number, whenever I reboot the game to start another online session, my gold reverts to 500G. No mods.

So be careful, I guess.

HI thanks for the report and sorry about the gold. Are you both on PC's? Or is the host playing on a Mac?
