Original story (published on October 24, 2022) follows:

Disney Dreamlight Valley is a popular game that combines the genres of ‘adventure’ and ‘life-simulation’ in a universe full of the most iconic Disney characters.

Through the Disney Dreamlight Valley world, you will have to complete many missions. The quests come from characters like Mickey Mouse, Merlin the Wizard, Elsa, Moana, Wall-E and more.

However, Disney Dreamlight Valley is not without its problems. For instance, there are reports of multiple issues like crashing on PS4 consoles and missions getting stuck, among others.

Now, Disney Dreamlight Valley players are facing an issue in the ‘Goofy’s Photo Fervor’ quest where the game is not recognizing the ‘Elephant Graveyard’ picture.

Disney Dreamlight Valley ‘Photo Fervor’ not recognizing Elephant Graveyard picture

To complete one of the game’s quests (Goofy’s Photo Fervor), the player must take photos in different areas throughout the map.

One of those areas is the Plateau’s Elephant Graveyard. However, multiple reports indicate that the Disney Dreamlight Valley ‘Goofy’s Photo Fervor’ quest is not registering the ‘Elephant Graveyard’ area photo.

Photo Fervor Glitch?

I’m having a hard time completing Goofy’s Photo Fervor quest; I’ve tried at least 10 different ways to take a picture of The Plateau’s Elephant Graveyard and it’s still not registering that I’ve completed that one. Did anybody else have this glitch?

Goofy Mission bugged

Hi! I can’t do the photo fervor event with goofy, I took all the pics he request except the dream castle one because it’s bugged. I figure it’s the main castle right? I’ve been taking lots of pics inside and outside and nothing 🥲 it still shows 0/1 in the mission.

Another user suggests that taking multiple photos until the game recognizes it can also help.

I had the same problem with the dream castle, but I kept taking pictures and eventually it worked

We will be monitoring the situation to update this story as events unfold in the future.

Update 1 (October 31, 2022)

06:10 pm (IST): A Redditor has suggested a potential workaround for the issue where the ‘Photo Fervor’ is not recognizing Elephant Graveyard picture.

It involves capturing full-screen photos in selfie mode.

I finally got it to work by standing back at the transition line to that area, changing the photo to the full screen mode (still in the selfie mode), and it worked! Probably took about 20 photos before that 😮‍💨
