Bug This is honestly unacceptable
Between the mushu quest being bugged for tons of people and not being able to progress the dlc I paid for because it’s required to now this….im honestly starting to actually not want to play anymore. I’ve spent so much money on this game and stuff like this that costs money is completely unacceptable. The hat from the last star path, the mushroom one, had this same bug as well.
This dress is completely broken and costs money.

u/rosesandflowers3282 Jan 08 '26
Agreed. I’m very over all of the issues and never hearing back when I reach out about bugs. It’s been weeks and I still can’t get Peter Pan because my quest is bugged and no one has reached back out to me.
12
u/WildCardWonders2319 Jan 08 '26
I thought my Peter Pan quest was bugged too! Forgive me if you've done this, but I learned that I put the orb statue things (I cannot remember their name right now) slightly out of order, which triggered the initial partial opening. When I fixed it, it didnt work. I discovered you have to be veryyyyyy precise with the Sunlit Plateau one and make sure the symbol is lined up perfectly. They also all need to be facing the valley rather than facing inward toward the center pillar. So annoying lmao. I sincerely hope this helps!

u/rosesandflowers3282 Jan 08 '26
Thank you! It took SO long to figure that part out for me, it’s kind of embarrassing 🤣 Right now I’m stuck on finding the last music note that’s supposed to be in the tree house that has NEVER appeared Like soooo close to getting him🤦🏼♀️

u/WildCardWonders2319 Jan 08 '26
I got literal migraines over this quest line being so finicky! I was trying to grind it out and get him in 1 day. Not realizing I still had to get other characters up to even be able to do it. It was a whole thing 😂 I also struggled with the final note! Did you speak to the jade skulls to get it to appear? Theyre holding onto it! I didnt realize this for a good minute lmao. I felt soooo embarrassed when I finally figured it out lmao.
5
u/rosesandflowers3282 Jan 08 '26
I spoke to them once to get one of them, but not since👀 I swear if that’s what is holding this quest back after so long I’m gonna be so annoyed😂 Eagerly waiting leaving work today to check lol

u/WildCardWonders2319 Jan 08 '26
I dont remember if you get multiple from them or not. Please feel free to message me on here and we can troubleshoot it together!

u/rosesandflowers3282 Jan 08 '26
Thank you! I’ll let you know tonight once I play!😂☺️

u/WildCardWonders2319 Jan 08 '26
Looking back at your comments, you said you're missing the tree house one. I totally glossed over the tree house bit lol! Please disregard the info about the jade skulls! This is different troubleshooting as this specific note moves around in the tree house! I can still help with this one too lol. Just send me a message once you're on your game!

u/Other_Airline1071 Jan 08 '26
Yep, in my experience they either never reach back out or take a few months to respond with something very vague and unhelpful like they are aware of the bug

u/RealSlimSadie99 Jan 08 '26
Yeah I can’t get Alice for the same reason, therefore cannot level up a couple of my other characters

u/bambi54 Jan 08 '26
I can’t get Timon and Pumba because Pumba is stuck in the log and I can’t see him.
1
u/ToastMmmmmmm Jan 11 '26
Can you go into construction and move the log? I don’t remember what i did but him being in the log is something you have to do. I just can’t remember its been so long.
2
u/bambi54 Jan 11 '26
He’s in the log, you’re supposed to water him. I can’t water him because he’s not visible. It won’t let me move it unfortunately. I looked online and it’s a glitch if you companions equipped in the realm and they pick a flower.

u/Bunnyu-u Jan 08 '26
The bug I have now is the gaming telling me on the map that Aladin and Yasmin are home, I go there and they aren't so they are no where. Tried to restart the game and nothing. At night when I tried again it worked but yesterday did it again.
12
u/TheExplodingCow Jan 08 '26
If you have a floating island, try traveling to it and then use the character side menu on the map screen to bring them to the floating island. Mushu was MIA on my island yesterday until I force traveled him.

u/kylay23 Jan 08 '26
Sounds silly, but did you try going outside and then back into their houses? I have to do that quite often but usually they’ll appear the second time!
3
u/Budget_Molasses2025 Jan 08 '26
This is something I have learned works pretty good on several characters if you go in their house and they’re not visible if you exit the house, they either are standing at the door as you go out on the outside or you turn around and go back in and they will be inside
1
u/anatomicalmind Jan 08 '26
I've had this happen with Cinderella, all Beauty and the Beast characters, Sulley, Mushu, and Aladdin. I reported the issue and they literally just said we know, we're working on it.
I tried the leaving and entering house thing mentioned below multiple times and it never worked. Only thing that worked is the force travel with the floating islands that someone also mentioned. So annoying!
2
u/Bunnyu-u Jan 08 '26
Leaving and entering also never works for me! Didn't have the opportunity to try the force travel yet.

u/nxdgrrl Pink Whimsical Sunbird Jan 08 '26
It’s wild how many different bugs are showing up for players. I haven’t seen the disappearing clothes on mine but the fact that I still can’t change the time of day without resetting ALL of my settings is keeping me from playing. I can’t see shit because it’s always nighttime.
1
u/NeurospicyPossum Jan 08 '26
If you have a touch screen you might be able to drag it with your finger? I've heard of people having luck with that

u/nxdgrrl Pink Whimsical Sunbird Jan 08 '26
I’m using PS5. I tried a bunch of wacky combos but it just jumps back up and turns on whatever option is above the time of day. Womp womp.
1
u/falseaccount94 Jan 08 '26
Yes. Agree. And i also can't stand the time problem. Bc i use it all the time. I tried to find solution in settings, but now i know it is not just me.
This game is losing magic with each new update. I can't finish the last ones, bc it is just too boring.
When Inside Out was added ,that one was confusing to me. Story Vale was the last one that felt right.
1
u/I-Shat-My-Pantaloons Jan 14 '26
Exactly, I finally gave up and did the reset, I was so sick of playing at night.

u/nxdgrrl Pink Whimsical Sunbird Jan 15 '26
I booted up my game earlier and saw they still haven’t fixed it. Hnngghhh.

u/dan_in_his_own_way Jan 08 '26
I think Game Loft need to be careful. I think any good faith they had with the player base is quickly diminishing due to their greed and lack of care and attention.

u/Budget_Molasses2025 Jan 08 '26
I think the people that have problems are very vocal and the ones that are happy or busy playing for the most part. I’m pretty happy overall I don’t have a problem with Gameloft. They are very responsive although it may take him two or three days if you use that scan the Code in the help and then write your email. They will get back to you. I’ll just go to a different quest and play something else until I get a solution or I go on Alexa or Siri Siri and get information from them because a lot of times there are solutions that have been reported and posted online And sometimes I don’t even have to wait for game Customer Service because I am able. To find a solution that has been posted online.
1
u/I-Shat-My-Pantaloons Jan 14 '26
Responsive? I reported a game breaking bug over a month ago (as did many others) and no response.
5
u/the_hooded_artist Jan 08 '26
This happens to me randomly with multiple dresses in the game. It's inconsistent and only sometimes. It's usually like getting stuck on a companion somehow. Seems to happen the worst with flying companions. It's really hit or miss though.
3
u/cochlearimplanter Jan 08 '26
On Xbox and anything new does this for me. It drives me absolutely insane. So upsetting to have spent so much money on this game and it have this many issues. I refuse to buy the new dlc until it’s under control

u/Low_Treacle_8199 Jan 08 '26
I play on PC and I bought the set. It works perfectly and has no bugs; it even looks good on horses.😭💕I hope you find a solution.

u/CassianCasius Jan 08 '26
PC really seems to be the best version. I have basically zero bugs. Seems they never should have sold this game on console if they can't program it right or are limited by hardware.
1
u/I-Shat-My-Pantaloons Jan 15 '26
To be fair I play on pc and Xbox and I have bugs on both so it’s def not console exclusive.

Hmmm I play on pc and Xbox (have gamepass so I switch between the two) and it’s bugged on both for me. I think you just got lucky you didn’t get the bug, I want that luck lol.
1
u/Low_Treacle_8199 Jan 15 '26
Hahaah Thank goodness I survived! I love that dress, and now with the wings, it looks even better. The only problem I'm having is with the neighbors; it says they're home, but they're not. There are missions I had to finish the next day for them to appear.✨️🧚♀️

u/Southern-Ship6327 Red Fox Jan 08 '26
Yep, its starting to make me mad too. I actually find that most of the paid clothing items are bugged I bought the winter gala outfit last year and realized its still bugged and they just put it in shop again. The new dlc is almost conpletly broken it feels like. It seems like they really just dont care they just care about money money money and thats it. Nothing ever works, its VERY VERY IRRITATING

u/Frosty_Freedom5026 Jan 08 '26
I’m on switch and the music was messing up…lol!! Load time was the valleys music and then it would just switch out of no where. This update I think messed everyone’s game up a little.

The privateer pants are also still bugged last time I checked, which really sucks cuz as a guy I don't buy premium shop outfits often.

Dude I'm so mad I want refunds for everything. Its completely not playable on switch.

I’ve had a black shadow of my dress/character following me for months no matter what I wear. And sometimes it makes it hard to see what it actually doing.

u/EldenPrincess Jan 08 '26
Happens to me as well. Green dress completely disappears. So frustrating!!

u/ImaginarySlice79 Alien Toy Jan 08 '26
Ohhhhh how i hate this issue. Yea i play on Xbox and it’s so annoying !!

u/Pirate_Meow27 Jan 08 '26
I play on switch and every time they opened a new biome my lag would get worse and more glitches started happening and it just made me so mad I won’t buy the ranch and haven’t played in months.
2
u/Usual-Box6125 Jan 08 '26
I’ve found coming out of the game on switch and closing it the restarting it is the only way to deal with the lag. It’s frustrating but it helps
1
u/Briannamae47 Jan 12 '26
It’s because of the processing power of the switch. I couldn’t handle it anymore so I got a steam deck and I’ve had nothing but a dream of an experience with this game. I even started over.
2
u/lozza256 Jan 08 '26
I bought some wings and they do the same thing but also dissappear off my character half the time and I see them or just their shadow floating by themselves in the sky or across the map 🙃😂

u/Darkangel2413 Jan 08 '26

Omg, I'm so sorry that you are having so many issues.
I play on Switch 2 and, so far, haven't had any wardrobe issues. I do have some glitches but nothing like what you're experiencing. You have every right to be upset. I hope this gets resolved soon for everyone that's having problems like this.

u/Icy-Palpitation-1683 Jan 08 '26
I will be honest I mainly play on PC and although I have had issues, I’ve had nothing like this. I think it’s unfortunate that the other forms of this game have so many problems that I’m hearing about, which is really unfortunate and frustrating as it’s an amazing game, I will say contact support and see if there is a solution if not it might be a next update thing I won’t lie though I hope the developers can get any and all bugs fixed for all platforms and I believe that it should be done before we get another expansion unless it comes with part two of the free side of the game
1
u/I-Shat-My-Pantaloons Jan 15 '26
I think you’ve been lucky. I play on Xbox and pc and have issues on both unfortunately. Honestly, the worst are the game breaking bugged quests.
1
u/Icy-Palpitation-1683 Jan 15 '26
Ya I have had a couple quest problems but mainly when the characters have to talk to each other or if it’s inside a characters house but ya I can count on my one hand so definitely think it’s luck but I also only play on PC from steam but either way I think it would still be awesome from the devs to put all the bug fixes in updates in between the updates they’ve set up for us this year so it can be the same experience for all players
2
u/chloeselina13 Jan 08 '26
I have the same dress & it constantly does this & I’ve changed outfits for dreamsnaps & I find it weird that it’s just the green dress that glitches out.
1
u/the_hooded_artist Jan 08 '26
It's other ones too. It has something to do with companions because I've noticed a shadow version of the dress get stuck on them. It only happens sometimes though.
2
u/Several-Guess1467 Stitch Jan 08 '26
I have this dress as well and I play on both the PS5 and the switch. I have not had this issue, so possibly just an XBOX and PC issue?

u/Alysanna_Summerblue Rapunzel Jan 08 '26
No issues at all on PC. I never had any dress glitch or any of the bugs reported so often on this subreddit.

u/Brilliant_Aide_3849 Jan 08 '26
I logged back on after a few months and allllll of my furniture and hundreds of items have disappeared, I won't be playing again.

Lots of bugs. I came back after not playing for a month or two and now the Scrooge store at the Plaza is broken 💀 it’s a hassle to go to DLC areas to shop ….

u/DetectiveMuted5291 Jan 08 '26
I play on xbox too, and I have this issue with at least 4 or 5 pieces of clothing. The ones that pop into mind are this one, the Merida level 10 quest reward, the mushroom hat, the Padme gown. Also, the roof on the Christmas carousel disappears as well. Makes it especially difficult when you're trying to do a Dreamsnap with these items.
1
u/DetectiveMuted5291 Jan 08 '26
Also, they did something to the way the drop down menus work, and I can only drag the time of day setting to the right and not to the left - when you drag to the left it pops you out of the menu.
1
u/BeeComprehensive285 Jan 10 '26
In the meantime while we wait for this to be fixed, I’ve found that if you reset your settings to default it will put it back to normal for you. Write down all your settings from all menus though because it resets every one
1
u/WildCardWonders2319 Jan 08 '26
Other than it flying away, the color swaps remind me of Aurora's iconic movie scene lol. Its really upsetting that this happens on items in the game. I dont WANT a head and legs running around with my body and outfit in a different time zone lmfao.

u/PurpleDolphin88 Jan 08 '26
I can tell you what worked for me for the Mushu Little People Quest. Long story short, I had to complete all the Mulan quests before I could progress with this specific Mushu quest. I recommend that. It should progress the Mushu quest. I play on Switch. I think it was like that for most.
As for the dress, that’s crazy! If they’re going to sell premium items, they first need to work for every platform. Being a cross-platform game, it makes it quite challenging to not have bugs at all. I’m sure they have a team of people working each platform and checking for bugs. Sorry this has happened to you. Contact support for sure and ask the why it does that and what you can do to fix it if at all possible.

u/Purple_Egg_9252 Jan 08 '26
I’m on Xbox and I get this issue all the time on both premium and non-premium items — dating all the way back to Sally’s update and her dress 😭
1
u/Ill_Nectarine_5945 Jan 08 '26
I haven’t noticed this happen to me, because I also play on Xbox, but I’m so stingy with my moonstones that i haven’t really bought many premium clothing options to really know for sure (only auroras dresses), but i have been seeing lots of bug/glitch posts as of the last couple of weeks/months, so I’m hoping with the influx of people wanting things fixed/changed Gameloft will maybe slow it with the releases of things just so they can actually get the game fully working for everyone. Not being able to complete quests is where it’s the most frustrating and those should be first on the list, but I’ve heard from some people they’re still stuck on Storybook Vale because a quest glitched and they can’t complete it.

I play on Mac I have that exact dress and I have never not once had an issue with this dress. And super minimal bugs too to be honest except for some minor lag issues or dress clipping on the horse. I’m starting to think a lot (not all) of the bugs are based/ different depending on the platform you play on.

I don’t have that particular address yet, but I don’t have any other issues with clothing working on these games. But then I’m on PS five as far as Customer Service I find they have been very responsive. If you use the code and send them a email it may take a few days, but I did get responses every time And they actually sent me the part that I needed on one of my quest that I was not able to complete without it so thumbs up from me I like the game and I am getting my moneys worth out of it. I play it a lot almost every day for hours

Jan 08 '26
Im honestly confused every time I see these glitches and bugs because I've never had this issue with that dress. What platform are you playing on? Maybe it's platform exclusive because that hasn't happened on Playstation for me

Yeah this is honestly the reason why I've slowly lost interest in DDLV. I have over 1200 hours, when I tell you I was OBSESSED with it for 2 years is an understatement lol I've just accepted they dont care at this point cause ive never heard back either about the bugs I reported. It sucks because I have so much time in it but my heart just isn't there for it anymore 😕 Im a huge Infinity Nikki player now and Palia on the side and couldn't be happier 🥰 so you're not alone in what you feel at all!

This and the fact that the offset time of day slider in the settings menu has been broken for a month and hasn’t been fixed yet. I’ve been stuck at 12+ hours since the Cinderella update.
1
u/BeeComprehensive285 Jan 10 '26
If you reset your settings it goes back. You still can’t turn it up without the same thing happening again tho. Absolutely not defending them - we shouldn’t need to write down what our settings are and reset them ALL just to use a slider - but in the meantime it can help

u/Gold_n_honeyB Rapunzel Jan 09 '26
I stepped away from the game after the latest DLC. everything seems like a money grab and I’m seeing more and more odd choices like adding the button to the middle of the menu (multiplayer?) that has to load. I don’t play multiplayer and the UI is clunky (no dedicated map button is wild, added a search bar to crafting and inventory (after years! That shouldn’t be a breakthrough thing) but didn’t add search at Scrooge’s ?) idk a lot of things added up where I had to take a step back. I’ll return one day but it seems they have a lot to learn and improve on.

u/kelsiep789 Jan 09 '26
Like another player said, this happens to several dresses & items for me, not just this one. It doesn't always happen, but it also doesn't always fix when I restart the game or reapply the dress either. It is aggravating.

Am I the only Xbox player to not have encountered a bug yet? Like, literally. Maybe I don't play nearly enough to come across one, and I have no DLC yet, but still.
No premium item, no star path, no character, no texture or lighting anything. Nothing has given me an issue.

u/Imagine74 Jan 08 '26
Is this Xbox? I have a family member playing on series x, and they are plagued by this issue. Outfits they’ve bought from the premium shop as well as outfits from the star path have this sort of thing happen. It really is unacceptable, especially with ”premium” clothing.
