Recently updated my steam deck, this error popped up, "typeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'Galaxy.Api.GalaxyInstancePINVOKE' threw an exception." (THERE'S MORE, HERE'S THE LOG LINK: https://smapi.io/log/3fe1dfbc72dd4dc7a3d22481916878e9 ) I'm not sure what to do about it, any advice ? I removed all my mods to make sure it wasn't a mod issue.

Your issue is related to this problem in the glibc Galaxy API.

Currently steam deck users don't have an intuitive fix for it due to the necessary tools not being present on the proprierary steamos Linux distribution.

While others have found success overhauling their installations from native Linux to an emulated windows install with Proton, doing so disables steams cloud save option and would require migrating all of ones mods from the Linux format to the windows format.

If you'd rather not go to lengths, you can restart your steam deck into the last stable build by restarting it and holding the ". . ." Button on the right lower side. Then select the option for previous build, it should be the second one after "current..."

Your steam deck will then display some scrolling text and will eventually boot into the big picture mode. Co op will then work. You will need to do this again if your deck automatically updates on you if you want to play sdv coop until steamos releases a new build to address the glibc issue or someone finds a series of commands steam deck users can use.

The good people at the sdv discord have been kind enough to release modified library files that will put a bandaid over the issue and make it so you won't need to boot into the last 3.6.x build you had.
I've forwarded the files for you.

Hello, I made an account here just to thank you! I've been spending all day trying to figure this out, and using the files you provided caused no more errors to show in SMAPI!
Thank you so much!

Thanks!! I was waiting for the summer sale to get my gf her copy and imagine my frustration when I couldn't host the game! Almost ruined our day but I fixed it thanks to that :)

Please suggest to me the best and free zip file extractor that you yourself use. I think apk version of cx file explorer would work just fine to extract zip files. What do you think?

I just wanted to chime in and say this is still an issue but the libraries were able to solve it without any other issues.

I am on CachyOS.

I wasn't prompted to overwrite/skip the libraries files, was able to just paste them in. However, they don't seem to be fixing the issue this way? Am I missing a really obvious step?

Thanks for the patched libraries! The issue persists on Arch Linux with glibc version 2.42+r17+gd7274d718e6f-1 and your fix is the preferred work around. Many thanks!

I'm in the same boat. Didn't get prompted to overwrite, and the issue still persists. Anyone know what to do?

I was here. I believe as a result from installing SMAPI using a mod manager.

I downloaded smapi manually used its linux -sh to uninstall smapi, then reinstall.

Next drop in this threads library files into root of sdv. And presto coop works.

I'm on steam deck btw, also I believe these 2 files are just the result of running that command mentioned in other threads using a package that the deck doesnt work on. A user was just kind enough to share em. Im on glibc 2.41+r47+g046b33800c3e-1 and was having issues till I performed the steps I mentioned.

Bonus tip on the deck set the game resolution to 2560x1600 using the games "manage" options in gaming mode, and tick the box for internal/external. this should fix any ui scaling and make the games pixel art look great!
