Solved Game Crashes When Loading Save Game

[MysticTempest]

Wow, thank you very much. If my farm is recovered. Thank you MysticTempest for helping the community in these problems. Another question, what can be done to avoid these errors?
Thanks for everything, and forgive me for my English, I'm from LATAM.

No prob, I'm happy to help!

For errors like yours; I'm not too sure to be honest. It's more likely a random hiccup with the game. Perhaps your computer doing too much at once, and SDV wasn't able to save completely, or something.
Nothing you can really do; as far as I know.

And, no worries; your english is great!

Hi, I'm experiencing similar crashes when trying to load a saved game as well. Would you be able to kindly take a look?

Hey, I took a quick look at your save and it loads fine for me with SMAPI. But, I see it is modded with SDV Expanded data.
So, either reinstall your SDV Expanded mods, or you can use this edited save below.

I removed a couple of the modded NPCs that cause crashes if SDV Expanded isn't installed; so it should be okay unmodded as well now.

Here I rolled it back a day again per the instructions here.
In case you want to try later: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Undo_the_last_save

Oddly, it's the same issue as before; half the save data is missing. Usually, it's a rare occurrence.

Not sure what type of PC you're running, but it happening again so soon could be an indication of some disk issue.
Like low disk space, or other low resources on your machine.

Hi! I am having the exact same problem as all the above people, I have attached my save file. Any help would be very very appreciated. Thank you so much! I tried to remove all of the SDVexpanded mod. Here is the error code

Howdy, I'm taking a look now. Looks like you also have some JA mods I need to clear out; besides the SDV Expanded NPCs.

But, if your game is throwing that error; just "Gunther", not "GuntherSilvian".
That's an issue with the vanilla, game files, and you should look into resetting your content files: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files

When, I'm finished though; I'll update the post with the fixed save.

Edit: Okay, patched it back to being usable in vanilla, SDV.

Please help me I had so much things in my save and I really want this back!! ;(

Ps. When I download one save from previous page and put this in my files it did work, but with mine it's still crahsing ;cc

Howdy, depending on why you're crashing; the fix is different. Without an error message I'm unsure which that'd be.
There should be an ErrorLog folder next to the saves folder.

But, feel free to zip up the save, and attach it here. There's an "Attach files" button in the bottom-left corner of the reply box; that you can use.

 

[szczerbatek00]

Thanks for answer;3, There's the save I hope It can be fixed.

No prob.
So, it looks like for you; it was also SDV Expanded NPCs, and custom items in the save.
You should either reinstall SDV Expanded, and the previous mods to continue playing your current save.

Or, here's an edited version of the save with the problematic NPCs removed, and a bunch of the custom items deleted.
So, it should be playable in vanilla.

Hi, only my recent save file is crashing but its not giving me an error code, its just crashing. I've ran tests on my pc so it has to be in the files but I don't know where to look. Help?

 

[Nicostaud]

Hello everyone !
It's seems I have the exact same kind of crash on my save. It was a long time that we played at 2 on it and then, from one day to the next, nothing... What a nightmare!
We didn't know how to fix it, we made the recommanded steps on many forum and wiki but nothing worked..
I will attached the save here, if a hero could show up and save us from long hours of play I would be so grateful!

It looks like your save has some SDV Expanded & RSV NPCs.
Your modded install may have some issues; you can find the log by following the instructions here: https://smapi.io/log/

Your save loads okay for me. Check for any error logs next to the save folder.
