With the predictor you can do both clay farming and prismatic shard farming on new RNG. Without the predictor, you can't do either of them on new RNG. But because of the legacy RNG setting, clay farming still lives.
@@mikkelborby Algo already used it for dragon tooths, so yeah. It still leaves a lot of stuff to do tho, so, you know, 999 challenge is not done yet :D
Noticing that my phone helpfully put "expositional growth" instead of "exponential growth" in the chat and now that's faithfully preserved in close-up video form. I suppose I should figure out what that even means. ETA: I've decided "expositional growth" refers to trying to explain something, only to realize first you need to explain something else, only to realize before that you need to explain yet another thing, only to realize... and so on. See also: Kingdom Hearts.
I've never heard that ending stuck on the word "exposition", but my browser didn't think "expositional" is a typo. Maybe it's a nonstandard form. Seems like one misplaced letter can cause spell checks to throw out random words that share some letters, even when all I did was forget if one letter should be doubled.
@@Br3ttM Yeah, I regularly flummox it by having an 'e' instead of an 'a' or something. Best guess on sequence of events was I somehow messed up "exponential" enough in the middle it offered this, and being unaware "expositional" was even an option I only paid enough attention to notice it looked roughly right.
You see, the issue is that "exponential" is correct in this case. However, in the modern day, "grows exponentially" is ALWAYS used incorrectly. This means that you aren't allowed to use it correctly anymore, thus it got changed.
probably wouldn’t be 999 in casual play, either, since you need 9 days in a row of the fish ponds producing nothing (and therefore redoubling), which is particularly unlikely since casual players will likely have more than one fish in there. Plus, casual players wouldn’t know this will happen, so they’d just pick up the whole stack at once and leave nothing to double again. So even getting, say, 64 or 128 roe only happens if a casual player skips picking up roe for several days, and just so happens to get a string of “no produce” on those days.
@@elenna1237 The original bug was discovered by a casual player, when they got 128 roe from a single harvest. Keep in mind that 999 isn't the only standout value here; fish ponds can very easily end up with 4, 8 or 16 items in them, especially on casual saves where managing every single thing every single day is out of the realm of possibility.
Technically if you do it for long enough you would eventually have to fish out the tiger trout. Per the wiki: In the game code the spawn rate for Tiger Trout is set to 999999 meaning it could technically reproduce after that number of days. To reach that number of days in Stardew Valley would require over 8900 years of the game to be played.
The thumbnail immediately amused me greatly because I was there this morning (last night for your timezone I suppose) watching you make the thumbnail for this, and then you went with something completely different 😂 (I like it by the way, simple but to the point!)
I am using the new thumbnail testing feature. There are 3 potential thumbnails for the vid, and UA-cam is swapping them out occasionally to see which one gets the best response
main reason this could get patched is since it can happen in regular gameplay - that's the whole reason it was discovered. It's alright if you're knowingly using the exploit, but a bit jarring if you suddenly get 128 roe for no apparent reason
i think it would be cool if concerned ape did one of those things where he keeps it in but nerfs it or acknowledges it, like maybe it would be x1.5 if it hadnt produced
I think the way it would be balanced a bit more for a speedrun is disallow purchasing of perfection waivers or even limit the amount you can purchase. It allows you to skip some of the money grind without skipping things like walnut collecting or fishing
The perfection speedrun actually already has 3 sub categories for this! There's one where you don't do any joja things, one where you can use joja mart but not waivers, and one where you can use waivers. This will still be useful for the one where you can't do any joja things, but its biggest impact is on the waiverful perfection (also known as open perfection)
do the steps shown at 9:23 also work for non-roe items? For example, if I wanted to duplicate cinder shards with stingray, could I set up the fish pond with "no roe, no roe, cinder shard" and get cinder shards by moving it?
Yes. Once you have information from one fish pond for your save, you can use that for any item in any fishpond. You just have to work out where in the pattern you are and go from there.
You couldn't set it up with no roe, no roe, cinder shard. The initial probing needs to use a fish pond at population 1 that doesn't have a chance of producing nothing. Stingrays can produce nothing, and so they wouldn't be a 100% reliable probe. However, once you've done the probing and know where in the rng you are you can switch in any other item. For example, what you could do: Day -2 No Roe Day -1 No Roe Day 0 Roe Days 1-20 filled up a stingray fish pond, waited to get cinder shard Day 21: Got a cinder shard! According to the pattern, on day 21 you've slept 1 time in step 5 and the fish pond should be 3 to the right. You move it there, and continue the process from there in step 5
It's pretty insane, I've been talking with Alexa and the options are just amazing and money is made trivial for anything playing lategame that doesn't ban it.

I had a Lava Eel pond that had 230~roe when i finely checked it. Thinking roe built up till you harvested I left it for a few months to fine 2 roe, and was thinking it was a bug.
The thing I love about concerned ape is that I'm 100% sure he'll either leave it in as is or nerf it to be only slightly less powerful (namely to make the bug less impactful for players who do it unintentionally). Concerned Ape understands that just because a bug isn't part of the intended player experience, that doesn't mean the bug can't still be fun. For this exact reason he hardcoded animation cancelling, left the legacy rng option, and gave all items unique ID's to make the item ID glitch more reliable. Players who don't like exploits simply won't choose to do those things and players who do like them will have their fun.
See, if you have 10 fish in your fish pond (which the vast majority of people would, especially with an golden animal cracker spent on it) there's only a 5% chance of doubling it every night. This means that the numbers are gonna stay low and it won't be a large impact. The very fact that it's been in the game since the update came out and only now did we discover it means that the impact on casual play is very very limited. It makes it a question of if speedruns do want to use it, and if CA cares strongly about it.
I doubt it'll stay. Its easy enough for casual players to stumble into the glitch. It happened to me in my 1.6 playthrough, though only with 32 roe. I was confused but figured there was a "jackpot" roe amount or something and never looked it up.
@@misirtere9836 I did not argue against tiger slime egg, just issued a correction, and if you can somehow reach perfection before unlocking ginger island, you can get 1.3m daily, which is less than 4m, but probably more than anything else.
I haven't done a 1 year min max. It's up to whoever does the run to decide if they would use it. Casino gave stupid amounts of money previous patches but runners decided to not use it
I would not say it being in the code is enough to say it is not a glitch. Most glitches are based upon something being in the code. Either something unintended getting through or strange edge cases. I would say this falls into that category. When you test it you would see the output is there and test it is doubled. You wouldn't normally leave it in there and see it double again.
i think he would have to remove it since this seems super likely to happen to any player that might forget about a fish pond for a couple days. if it was more out of the way then I could see a reason to argue to keep it
He and I think one other have made seed finders which are available on several of the SDV discords. They are anything but user friendly, but do help if you can sort out how to use em
Please don't watch my 7 hour speedrun it's very slow, it's mainly there to demonstrate the route. I also want to make it clear - the run is seeded, because the specific route relies on getting lucky with the traveling cart for skill books for mastery. It's a 1/1750 rng check that you can a) route differently to lower it [I already know of a 1/300ish different route] and b) probe early [that 1/300ish different route can probe till like 70% before doing the winter foraging]. But technically it isn't an unseeded run. All the fish pond bullying is unseeded though :)
(also if anybody wants to see just how powerful it can get ... 40 million gold per day / real life minute sound good to you? ua-cam.com/video/RqiU75JqULA/v-deo.html)
I would leave it as is, but make it so if you move the pound, it will be reset the next day, still somewhat exploitable, but a fair limit, I think, and either a gamble, or a nice surprise for more casual players
Hopefully the fix (there's no way it doesn't happen) is just a cap at 500 or something, you'd need 750 of the item to even begin infinite duplication, and the process would be harder while keeping the use cases. Also question: does leaving the stack continue to add xp or does the amount stored reset each day? Getting 90k xp to hit all 5 masteries seems REALLY funny
That would ... not really be a fix. There's a trivial fix to completely remove the duplication and I see no reason CA would simply make it harder while leaving it in. Also, XP-wise you only get xp when you harvest the last item and the amount of xp is the value of a single item, unfortunately.
This is something that can happen in casual gameplay. I can see why they would fix this. Also I 100% see this as a glitch. Due to a mistake in the code the items are doubled every day under certain conditions. Unless Concerned Ape says that was actually intentional, then that’s a glitch.
Wouldn’t be nearly as broken in casual play, though. You need 9 days in a row of the fish ponds producing nothing (and therefore redoubling), which is particularly unlikely since casual players will likely have more than one fish in there. Also it would be pretty unlikely to happen with prismatic shards on accident. Plus, casual players wouldn’t know this will happen, so they’d just pick up the whole stack at once and leave nothing to double again. So even getting, say, 64 or 128 roe only happens if a casual player skips picking up roe for several days, and just so happens to get a string of “no produce” on those days.
@@elenna1237 I don't know how BD defines glitches versus exploits, but this is a situation where a check for whether or not the player gets an item needs to fail in order for the player to get even more items than if it'd succeeded. To say with certainty that something like this is intended or unintended is always mind reading, but it'd definitely be _way_ out of step with the game's other easter eggs.
This seems exceedingly complicated, I dunno how this could ever happen during normal play. I've got quite a few ponds, never once have I gotten a full stack. Do you need to be on that legacy random setting thingie?
There's a couple of things that are stopping this from happening during normal play. #1: Near-Empty Fish Ponds. The chance of duplication falls the more fish that are in the fish pond; what's a 77% chance of doubling at 1 fish population lowers to a 5% chance of doubling at 10 population. So that's already a big inhibitor. Furthermore, for optimal doubling unless you're using tiger trout you need to fish out the fish every time it breeds because otherwise the chance lowers. #2: Not collecting. You need to leave the fish pond uncollected for the chance at doubling. #3: Low probability. On new RNG, there's a consistent 7% chance and on legacy RNG every 22ish days there will be a 12ish streak of doubling followed by a 10ish streak of double, not double (and reset). What is required is using legacy RNG for the pattern; there is no pattern to RNG on new RNG but on legacy there is
@@alexion3007 Ok so the pond needs to be near empty, that seems very backwards. And once I do get say a prismatic shard, I let it sit there. And yes to the old rng then? You can switch between those at will, yeah? Or is it only at new game?
@@gossamera4665 Unless you edit the save file, only on new game. Getting special items relies on full population, so you would need to leave it at 10, get a prismatic shard, then fish it down to 1. I would recommend actually using the pattern or the predictor and not just letting it sit there, though, as with how rare prizzies are it's not a good idea to just hope.
@@alexion3007 Yeah that just seems like a whole lot of work, might as well just change my name to the item number. But thank you for a detailed explanation.
Blade, any ideas on how to get the purple pets in the files? The cat and dog specifically since you can just buy the turtle right now. Apparently no one figured it out yet, but you're the code goat so let us know if they're completely unobtainable. ;)
Not a glitch, but you can double or nothing calicoJack to get billions of qi coins. Then you could trade them for stacks and stacks of farm warp totems to throw in the shipping bin for easy g. As of 1.6 you can only buy 20 items per day
requires mastery (for golden animal crackers) so unlikely to be useful for anything but perfection% (also the mods are still debating if it’s allowed in glitchless)
You could also use the item glitch to boost yourself to mastery with books 📕 😂 “[PurpleBook]” to get book of stars which adds a small amount of xp to all skills still not requiring any mods
Will this (in theory) work on console once the update is released, assuming it isn’t specifically patched? Is there a way to check what the tile will give you with the fish pond?
So switch has its own rng but as I've recently figured out clay farming on the switch I could also get a fish pond farming pattern working, but since 1.6.9 will patch it odds are very high the first console version will have this glitch patched.
Oh, geez, I really hope you are serious about this. I have struggled to get even one shard and so made two ponds with rainbow trout. All I get thus far is roe. If this is genuine Im going to subscribe immediately but I fear its a joke! I don’t want to exploit this for massive gain I just want a 10% chance instead of the depressingly low percentage we currently get. Im rubbish at the combat in this game so die every trip to the skull cavern. This has locked me out of much of the late game even though I have hundreds of hours on three platforms 😏
The thing about the casino exploit is it's a lot less popular and well known than something like renaming yourself after items. It makes it feel a lot less like a fun unintended feature and more like a glitch. I wonder if that's why it was removed even though Concerned Ape usually intentionally leaves things like that in the game.
Going based on my own thought process around what the difference between the two is, my guess is it's likely a combo of accessibility and the name item ids being a lot more 'meta' than the casino. The casino being an unlimited money-maker breaks the illusion of Stardew being a real little world and reminds you that it's a video game-- plus it's something an average player could reasonably figure out, and it's very easy to do once you're aware of it. By comparison, if you're using the name id exploit, that's a very intentional decision you're going out of your way to make, and is the kind of thing where if you're doing it, it's because you /want/ to break the game and have fun messing around. Additionally, for some players- even if they don't actually use it- just knowing about something like the casino exploit can suck the fun of playing normally because doing things the 'hard' way can feel a lot less gratifying and worth it if you know that at any time you could just go and make as much money as you want. Especially when so much of Stardew's late-game revolves around making money to buy things like the obelisks, return scepter, gold clock, etc. Before the update, I was at that point in my game and I intentionally avoided learning the specifics of the casino exploit because I knew that the temptation hanging over my head would have potentially caused my enjoyment to suffer.
concerned ape really got rid of clay farming only to accidentally introduce prismatic shard farming

I would leave it as is, but make it so if you move the pound, it will be reset the next day, still somewhat exploitable, but a fair limit, I think, and either a gamble, or a nice surprise for more casual players
Hopefully the fix (there's no way it doesn't happen) is just a cap at 500 or something, you'd need 750 of the item to even begin infinite duplication, and the process would be harder while keeping the use cases.
Also question: does leaving the stack continue to add xp or does the amount stored reset each day? Getting 90k xp to hit all 5 masteries seems REALLY funny
Even at 500 you can do infinite duplication, it’s just slower (250 items a day) than it would be at 999
@@titaniadioxide6133 yeah exactly, if the exploit had a cap of 2 it'll work, but 500 is a good mix of "have to put effort into it, still get it."
That would ... not really be a fix. There's a trivial fix to completely remove the duplication and I see no reason CA would simply make it harder while leaving it in.
Also, XP-wise you only get xp when you harvest the last item and the amount of xp is the value of a single item, unfortunately.
That literally feels like Stardew version of double it and give it to the next person ( ╹▽╹ )

i'm absolutely devastated that this will most likely be patched long before 1.6 is released on console
This is something that can happen in casual gameplay. I can see why they would fix this.
Also I 100% see this as a glitch. Due to a mistake in the code the items are doubled every day under certain conditions. Unless Concerned Ape says that was actually intentional, then that’s a glitch.
Wouldn’t be nearly as broken in casual play, though. You need 9 days in a row of the fish ponds producing nothing (and therefore redoubling), which is particularly unlikely since casual players will likely have more than one fish in there. Also it would be pretty unlikely to happen with prismatic shards on accident.
Plus, casual players wouldn’t know this will happen, so they’d just pick up the whole stack at once and leave nothing to double again. So even getting, say, 64 or 128 roe only happens if a casual player skips picking up roe for several days, and just so happens to get a string of “no produce” on those days.
that being said, I do agree that “no produce means double the previous day’s produce instead” is likely to be unintentional
@@elenna1237 I don't know how BD defines glitches versus exploits, but this is a situation where a check for whether or not the player gets an item needs to fail in order for the player to get even more items than if it'd succeeded.
To say with certainty that something like this is intended or unintended is always mind reading, but it'd definitely be _way_ out of step with the game's other easter eggs.
This seems exceedingly complicated, I dunno how this could ever happen during normal play. I've got quite a few ponds, never once have I gotten a full stack. Do you need to be on that legacy random setting thingie?
There's a couple of things that are stopping this from happening during normal play.
#1: Near-Empty Fish Ponds. The chance of duplication falls the more fish that are in the fish pond; what's a 77% chance of doubling at 1 fish population lowers to a 5% chance of doubling at 10 population. So that's already a big inhibitor. Furthermore, for optimal doubling unless you're using tiger trout you need to fish out the fish every time it breeds because otherwise the chance lowers.
#2: Not collecting. You need to leave the fish pond uncollected for the chance at doubling.
#3: Low probability. On new RNG, there's a consistent 7% chance and on legacy RNG every 22ish days there will be a 12ish streak of doubling followed by a 10ish streak of double, not double (and reset). What is required is using legacy RNG for the pattern; there is no pattern to RNG on new RNG but on legacy there is
@@alexion3007 Ok so the pond needs to be near empty, that seems very backwards.
And once I do get say a prismatic shard, I let it sit there.
And yes to the old rng then? You can switch between those at will, yeah? Or is it only at new game?
@@gossamera4665 Unless you edit the save file, only on new game. Getting special items relies on full population, so you would need to leave it at 10, get a prismatic shard, then fish it down to 1. I would recommend actually using the pattern or the predictor and not just letting it sit there, though, as with how rare prizzies are it's not a good idea to just hope.
@@alexion3007 Yeah that just seems like a whole lot of work, might as well just change my name to the item number. But thank you for a detailed explanation.
Well that's a fun one! nice discovery.
Blade, any ideas on how to get the purple pets in the files? The cat and dog specifically since you can just buy the turtle right now. Apparently no one figured it out yet, but you're the code goat so let us know if they're completely unobtainable. ;)
Unobtainable unfortunately
@@BlaDeSDV Oh alright, thank you sm.
What was the glitch with the casino?
Not a glitch, but you can double or nothing calicoJack to get billions of qi coins. Then you could trade them for stacks and stacks of farm warp totems to throw in the shipping bin for easy g. As of 1.6 you can only buy 20 items per day
@@BlaDeSDV ohh ok :) i never played much with the casino. Only enough for the scarecrow. Never thought of exploiting it
I was wondering why when I started my stingray ponds I was getting way too much roe
I mean anything in this game is broken when you use a predictor tool and peak behind the game's code.
I LOVE video game numbers.
speedrun strat?
requires mastery (for golden animal crackers) so unlikely to be useful for anything but perfection% (also the mods are still debating if it’s allowed in glitchless)
Is a farm map available to show where the ponds need to be placed for this to work?
NEW BLADE VIDEO NEW BLADE VIDEO LETS GOOOOOO
Did they remove dynamic seeding? I doesnt seem to work even with legacy randomisation turn on.
wait so if I just remove the fish and dont predict the items or move the pond, it can still do this accidentally if I fail the check??
I allow it for speedruns.
I had no idea one could animal craer a pond
Ah, this code is fantastic 😅
You could also use the item glitch to boost yourself to mastery with books 📕 😂 “[PurpleBook]” to get book of stars which adds a small amount of xp to all skills still not requiring any mods
Will this (in theory) work on console once the update is released, assuming it isn’t specifically patched? Is there a way to check what the tile will give you with the fish pond?
So switch has its own rng but as I've recently figured out clay farming on the switch I could also get a fish pond farming pattern working, but since 1.6.9 will patch it odds are very high the first console version will have this glitch patched.
Oh, geez, I really hope you are serious about this. I have struggled to get even one shard and so made two ponds with rainbow trout. All I get thus far is roe. If this is genuine Im going to subscribe immediately but I fear its a joke!
I don’t want to exploit this for massive gain I just want a 10% chance instead of the depressingly low percentage we currently get. Im rubbish at the combat in this game so die every trip to the skull cavern. This has locked me out of much of the late game even though I have hundreds of hours on three platforms 😏
If I'm going to go through all this effort, I'll just use the CJB Item Spawner mod lol
this isnt really meant for casual play i think, mostly speedrunning id imagine
Love seeing videos from stuff I can't access yet.... 😑
Console and mobile SV players weep.. we do.. November 4 can't come soon enough!
İs it Working on normal? Or only the legacy thing (sorry for my English)
Stil works? Just make fish pond ?
oh man this is almost viable for lowpercent, if only it didnt require mastery
What there is disassembly of entire stardew???
Wait, did you say it does or doesn't work in 1.6.x?
It works on every 1.6 version currently released
I didnt quiet understand, how can I recreate it?
how did you got the game's source?
Is it possible to do this with legendary fish now?
The patch that let you put legendary fish in the pond also fixed this tech
Thank you. Darn that would have made them so good though
Wait you missed the bookseller
still works?
Will be fixed on 1.6.9
@@BlaDeSDV thx!! Have a nice day!!!
@@BlaDeSDV Bugger. Any idea when 1.6.9 will release?

I LOVE YOU BLADE!!!!!

How long til this gets patched lol
BLAAAAAAADEEEE ‼️‼️‼️‼️
I can... I can give my cat some fish?
I pet it while holding fish. I didn't actually give it fish.
At this point, why don't people just cheat and give themselves all the resources and prismatic shards they want? It's pretty much the same.
is this 1.6?
The thing about the casino exploit is it's a lot less popular and well known than something like renaming yourself after items. It makes it feel a lot less like a fun unintended feature and more like a glitch. I wonder if that's why it was removed even though Concerned Ape usually intentionally leaves things like that in the game.
Going based on my own thought process around what the difference between the two is, my guess is it's likely a combo of accessibility and the name item ids being a lot more 'meta' than the casino. The casino being an unlimited money-maker breaks the illusion of Stardew being a real little world and reminds you that it's a video game-- plus it's something an average player could reasonably figure out, and it's very easy to do once you're aware of it. By comparison, if you're using the name id exploit, that's a very intentional decision you're going out of your way to make, and is the kind of thing where if you're doing it, it's because you /want/ to break the game and have fun messing around.
Additionally, for some players- even if they don't actually use it- just knowing about something like the casino exploit can suck the fun of playing normally because doing things the 'hard' way can feel a lot less gratifying and worth it if you know that at any time you could just go and make as much money as you want. Especially when so much of Stardew's late-game revolves around making money to buy things like the obelisks, return scepter, gold clock, etc. Before the update, I was at that point in my game and I intentionally avoided learning the specifics of the casino exploit because I knew that the temptation hanging over my head would have potentially caused my enjoyment to suffer.
how to make the glitch work in phone
It was fixed on the mobile release
Did this get patched yet?
The current stardew valley version is still 1.6.8, and this works on that version (and all previous 1.6 versions)
Has this been fixed?
In the patch coming out in a few days, yes
Literally today fixed haha
1.6.9 is huge
did it get patched?
It will be patched once 1.6.9 is out, but right now it isn't out.
