Troll armor on top

-# can i finally have flowers👀

[sturdy folio]

Your order of flowers has been received and will be given next southern hemisphere spring

[tough hare]

Order of the Red Rose?
Or blue Violets? 🙂

Kinda like:

"Roses are red, violets are blue.
No matter where you are, there's always happy bees."

[cold crater]

Roses are red, violets are blue,
Subject won’t add flowers, no matter what you do.

[sturdy folio]

Oh look, it's spring here in Australia

[cold crater]

Oh thank you<3

[tough hare]

Really?

Guess climate change does hit hard when it's still winter in Europe, while autumn and winter are skipped in Australia.

[violet coral]

Could a kind soul please point me towards some resources I can use to resolve my multiplayer game crashing?
I'm playing on my partner's world, we've been playing together since launch, same world, updated and all, no mods.
Recently, we'll play together for a bit and then my game will freeze, computer get unresponsive.

Has anyone else encountered this? Are there any guides on how to resolve the matter?

TIA!

[mellow yarrow]

do flametal towers sink

i thought they used to

[ripe bone]

is this your first playthrough

[worldly dagger]

Not my very first.

[fathom lotus]

is stone good as wall material aginst enemies?

[tardy ledge]

Can I join an Ashland Level world just to repair my gear? I spent a lot of time on a friends world and want to keep using my gear

I only need to repair my mistwalker plz??

[buoyant peak]

Yes

[coral wharf]

They do, just the sinking % chance has been lowered some time ago (to 1% per hit I think) so it's not impossible to mine the whole pillar without it sinking if you get lucky

I mean I am sure it was possible before too, u just need less luck now

[fathom lotus]

Can this attract something dangerous?

[narrow field]

Hello everyone. I’ve just bought Valheim for my Mac air 8gb , the lag is insanely slow and unplayable. Is there anything I can do to improve play? Or do I give up and get a console/ more powerful laptop? Many thanks 🙏

[gilded ridge]

no

[tired root]

Wait and you'll see.

[coral wharf]

Hard to tell, but as far as I know Macs' usually don't have the specs for gaming. And the 8GB part of your specs is not enough to tell - just a little hint that's not a lot so probably your other specs are low too 🤷🤔

F.ex. my old laptop that I bought like 5-6'ish years ago had 8GB RAM (than I later upgraded to 16 - irrelevant) and it came with GTX1660Ti and intel i5 -> not bad - but not great either, valheim was running pretty well tho (above 60FPS at most times, just struggled a little around big player-built structures, and in the last biome the performance was just slightly worse)

[narrow field]

Thanks very much for your advice! Sorry I’m a bit of a caveman with this stuff! I’ll look to buy a second hand gaming pc if I can afford it, or maybe Xbox

[frosty frost]

Yep, but the chace per hit that they would sink was changed from 10% to 1% 🙂

[coral wharf]

And I am not a computer expert but I think Macs usually get the standard integrated GPU only right? - the sheer fact of not having a separated gaming GPU will cut your frames to ~30FPS in even the simplest games

[narrow field]

Looks like I stand no chance right?😞

[coral wharf]

Example here - "muck" a totally basic game, on my GFs laptop (also not so new, but with intel i7 some high gen etc) but only integrated card... Gets like 20-35 frames

[narrow field]

Wow, ok, yeah I need to upgrade! Thanks

[coral wharf]

Google says that this GPU can barely hold low end games on lowest quality (and the game examples that Google spat out for me were "farming simulator" and "rocket league" xd)

[narrow field]

Thanks! Is the play much better on pc than Xbox?

[coral wharf]

Yeah unfortunately even tho macs look nice, are lightweight, etc... their internal tech is usually lower grade than what everyone else produces - at least in the same price range... It's just designed for different things... (And I guess a little bit of selling cheap old tech with the 🍎 logo for the big 💰 too)

[tough hare]

Only if you're afraid of bright light balls floating in the air....

But then, you'd be a Mogwai and I doubt you are.

[coral wharf]

Can't tell, haven't tried console. But the general conclusion I've heard around: PC masterrace has best performance, "laughs in 144fps" and whatnots xd

[coral wharf]

But I can imagine console being just more suitable for the more "fun and chill couch gaming". So I guess it's totally personal preference 🤷

[narrow field]

Thanks very much👍 I’ll see if any mates can sell me a second hand gamer pc, funds are low at the min but would love to play the game properly, looks awesome!

[coral wharf]

Good luck

[narrow field]

A buddy of mine said it may be possible to play via the cloud as the processing is done there?

[coral wharf]

Yes! He is right

Sorry I actually forgot about that solution

There is this thing made by NVIDIA, called "NVIDIA now" that you can buy for... Sth around 10€/month I believe (at least in our country). And it basically streams the game for you - so you basically play it in the external "NVIDIA computer"

I also have a buddy that started using it lately and he is super happy about it, as he can just play everything he'd like on max settings

[narrow field]

Ah sweet! Cheers , I’ll look into that! Could be a good solution until I can afford a decent laptop or pc

[coral wharf]

The only thing is that it's streamed through the internet so it needs a strong connection

[coral wharf]

• not exactly sure about the name "Nvidia now" but it was something like that for sure... If you look for the Nvidia game streaming services u'll find it easy

[narrow field]

Awesome, cheers 👍

[lost sandal]

GeForce Now. It's also a subscription if you want to play for more than an hour at a time without needing to restart the game. I used to use it before I got my rig

Tho the sub isnt unreasonable

[narrow field]

Cool, thanks! And when I make the switch, will I still have my game saved/ items etc?

[lost sandal]

You should if you go from GFN to a pc and vice versa. Steam will cloud save your data

if you go to xbox you will need to start fresh

[primal venture]

Hi guys, is there a mod that raises the ground instead of flattening it with the radius? Thank you

I would like to raise a huge hole to level the ground

[tough hare]

There's a tool you can craft from your inventory for that.
Once it's equiped you need to have stone in your inventory to raise land.
Same tool is also used to flatten the land.

[primal venture]

yes but it takes me forever to get everything up isn't there a way like the plan build mod that widens your range of action and smooths everything out for you? Thank you

[lost sandal]

If you insist on using a mod, #mods-discussion is the place to ask

[primal venture]

ok

[frigid grotto]

how do i make better weapons and tools? im pretty new still, do i have to keep gathering supplies?

[true steeple]

What do you have already?

[frigid grotto]

oh just basics...stone axe, club, hammer, torch

[true steeple]

You can find flint near water to craft new equipment at a workbench

This will also allow you to make improvements around the workbench, which unlock new recipes and allow you to upgrade equipment

[frigid grotto]

okay, so making bow and clothes just comes in time. bow would help for getting the deer i cant even get at.

[true steeple]

You can crouch behind them and use a faster weapon such as a knife or spear.

[frigid grotto]

and with cooking i dont think im doing right, ill go to cook meat, and take it off the cooking station and it disappears

[true steeple]

I’m not sure why that would be happening

[tough hare]

It's possible the meat drops near the campfire if you're standing just a bit too far from it; but still close enough to interact with it.

Another possibility is that you've waited too long and got coal instead of cooked meat instead.
The trick with cooking meat is to press E the moment you hear the sissling sound. If you miss that and are too late, the cooked meat will turn into charcoal.
So it may be a good idea to check the campfire whether or not the cooked meat is in it and / or if you have coal in your inventory.

[frigid grotto]

ya i just figured it out with the sizzling sound, i did wait too long b4 that, thank you much

[tough hare]

yw.

The "good" news is that coal is required later, so if you are able to store it in chest somewhere you plan your base, do so.

[old flare]

Hi

i have question

boars eat honey?

[quasi comet]

no

[old flare]

Sad

[gritty beacon]

can i start without anything except a friend in the Plains?

[lost sandal]

In theory, yes. The real question is will you find it enjoyable. And to that, most likely not.

[lilac walrus]

we have installed a mod for seasons and the water is now frozen so we can go to the plains

[gritty beacon]

and now its unfrozen and we are stuck in the plains

[subtle parrot]

#mods-issues

[gritty beacon]

its not an issue we just don`t want to do the first 4 biomes

[minor forge]

I've gone through FIVE wolves trying to tame them

what do i DOO

[stoic trench]

Isolate them in a pit, throw some meat 🍖

[fickle osprey]

Just looking for a clarification on player based raids within a dedicated server. I can't seem to find specifics on what exactly does and does not trigger the next set of raids. I know of the obvious, which is defeating a boss- this would obviously trigger the new raid type to become available. I was hoping for clarification on the following:

• if a new member joins (who uses a brand new character and has not done any bosses), picks up material from say Swamp, does this trigger swamp raids then if the server already has Bonemass power available at spawn?

• Following a similar hypothetical as above, would the new member trigger swamp-raids if they were to go grab the power from Bonemass at spawn point?

• If said new player is running around with a user who has been around longer and defeated Bonemass, can swamp-level raids still happen around those two?

thank you!

[minor forge]

3. Raids happen per player, per level so either event could occur, even two different raids in quick succession.

Not sure about firswt 2

Okay I looked it up, its on boss kill that your char gets the new raid. not trophy placement

It can even be carried over world to world

[fickle osprey]

okay- so if someone joins a server that has the trophy there, they still dont necessarily unlock those raids just by grabbing the power?

they can only unlock those raids IF they themselves defeat that boss?

[minor forge]

Yes they ahve to be there at the time of the boss being slain to get the raid for themselves

[hard mortar]

hum hi everyone ! i got some issues with the game, so, i'm playing on pc, joining my friend who made a little server (on his xbox) and since i started the game, no problem. but, i joined him like, 2 h ago, and every time i join, the game load, and i have a little icon in the upper left corner of my screen who's certainly saying "bro, the connection is not good" and i'm disconnected, and when i try to rejoin, the game leave me on the "connection" screen before i can put the password and i can't rejoin again, my wifi is not bad, i have a good pc, and i don't have any idea on what could possibly go wrong, someone can help me please ?

gonna try again and put some screenshots

even if he reload the server, i can't play more than 1 minute befor i'm disconnected

(my game is in french, i hope it's not a problem)

[gritty beacon]

how can i skip first boss?

[hard mortar]

my game is in vanilla, dl on xbox app, but since now, i could play without any issue

and even if i create a new character, it doesn't work

can launch in solo, tested it

[sleek herald]

My guess would be server-side error. I've never heard of anyone using their xbox as a (presumably non-dedicated) server and I'm not sure how well that works. Do you guys have a 3rd person who can join that world ok? Or maybe you host & he joins?

[hard mortar]

no, like, he just host a game on his console and only his friend can join, as the same in minecraft bedrock for example, not a server, but friend open thing, and other people can join, but i got this problem since 2~3 h only

[sleek herald]

Do you know of a second server you can try to join?

[hard mortar]

no, i don't have any other server, imma try

[sleek herald]

Why would you want to do that?

(This is more of a hint than you think)

[hard mortar]

if you have an ip or anything, cuz i don't have any other friend to try

[sleek herald]

nah I got nothing, might try #1024264966712340510 though

[coral wharf]

Convince a big blue forest friend ( ) to mine some copper and tin for you. U will need at least:

• 6 copper for forge
• 20 copper and 10 tin for the first bronze pickaxe

[sleek herald]

RIP the trophy though

[coral wharf]

But it's not a great idea as:

• 1st boss is super easy to kill
• it's forsaken power is one of the best in the game (at least top 2 depending on the playstyle)

[finite yoke]

Takes longer to get a troll to mine you those resources compared to just killing eikthyr

[coral wharf]

Yes and no...

• tin - I'd say u r right bcs tin drops are high per node and each node has low HP
• copper - trolls are super useful to mine copper with as the nodes yield less drop per node-part broken and require much more dmg to break

It's not like I will spend 20 min purposely looking for troll every time, but whenever I am aware that there is one wandering nearby... I'd go and ask him politely for a hand

[gritty beacon]

can i skip the mother?

[gritty beacon]

i have my reasons

[sleek herald]

Sure. You just won't get any Blackmetal, Ovens, or most of the Mistlands/Ashlands gear.

[tired root]

And no barley flour or linen thread either.

[hard mortar]

thw pal

thx*

got some news @sleek herald even on an other serv, i got the same issue

little thing in the upper left corner

and i'm disconnected

[lilac coyote]

Looks and sounds like a bad connection.

[hard mortar]

nope, since i said that i don't have bad connection

[lilac coyote]

Evidence suggests otherwise.

[hard mortar]

i can play other game who ask a lot more ressources with the internet (mmo etc..) and only got the issues here

example, can play in a full gta5 lobby without any lag, sea of thieves or warthunder without any problem

[lilac coyote]

What about actually similar games?

[hard mortar]

the issue only seem to be on valheim, and, in addition, only since this afternoon

survival game don't have any problem

game dl on xbox app don't have any problem too

[lilac coyote]

Ok.

[hard mortar]

this is why i'm asking help, since i could potentialy fix it if it was my wifi or my pc, but it seem to only be the game (i don't use mod or others app who can enter in conflict with valheim)

maybe a rare or unique issue, so this is why i'm asking here 😔

[lilac coyote]

Well, when you deny all help it makes it tricky.

[hard mortar]

didn't deny any help tho, but imma not make a scene

@sleek herald gonna try to check the file and imma tell you what the results are

tested with a guy on a server, same problem

3 different server and same issue

[elder mountain]

This is a bit of a niche issue, and not really an issue, but a request for a small tutorial. I have scoured the internet for an answer, and cannot find anything. I'm playing on a modded server, and off-map space islands have become a thing. No one will tell me how to create one for my own use. (I'm also an admin in this server and need to know so I can sell these islands along with fellow admins.)

Edit: Upon closer inspection of a provided screenshot from a fellow admin, it looks like the ground is just mega-raised, not floating. False alarm, nevermind lol

[balmy cedar]

@hard mortar when you where connecting to my server i had this disconnected sign for 30 sec

[hard mortar]

mhh

i'm lost bro, i don't know what to do 😔

more information about important things too, i got plenty of space left (like 17GO on each disks) and i got a good config (rtx 4060, 16Go of ram, i-5 12th gen...) my wifi can handle stream on big games, and the issue is kinda weird, imma try again tomorrow too

got more information

last serv i joined

i'm trying the uninstall/install back thing

maybe it will help (thanks to @balmy cedar for the idea tho)

[hard mortar]

same issue after installing back the game

[tough hare]

If you keep having this problem, have you checked your anti virus program?
It could be it has updated and now considers anything trying to send packets of Valheim as "dangerous".

[gritty beacon]

year that's not god because I and my friend stranded on a Island and we want to skip the first 4 bosses and play backwards stating in the Planes

[tough hare]

mumbles someting about not having flying mounts / devices in Valheim

[gritty beacon]

@hard mortar stupid question but have you try to uninstall and is crosplay on?

[hard mortar]

yep

[hard mortar]

i can actually open a server for my friends so i don't know

this is my code if you want to join to try if it works

[tough hare]

If you can't connect to them, but they can connect to you, it may be a good idea if they checked if their anti virus program updated. Or if they're using mods you don't use. Or have outdated versions of those mods if you have the same ones.

[hard mortar]

they're on xbox

they don't have antiviruses and imma check mine

[tough hare]

And you're on PC?

Do all of you have "Crossplay" enabled?

[hard mortar]

how do i check it ?

[tough hare]

Should show up in the screen you use to connect.

I'm not in Valheim atm, but I'm sure it's pretty easy to see.

[hard mortar]

ho yeah okay

when you mean the screen, is that in the joining thing or in xbox app ?

[hard mortar]

and i think yes since i could play with my friends this morning

[tough hare]

you may take a look at this:

https://gamerant.com/valheim-crossplay-explained/

and here's where to find how to enable th e crossplay:
https://static0.gamerantimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/how-to-create-valheim-crossplay-server.jpg

[hard mortar]

yeah, his serv is crosplay

i can join a serv but after

this is on my screen, only since this afternoon

[tough hare]

And to answer that, has anyone of you have had some sort of update?
I do know Windows did an update this week which messed a lot of things up at my pc and laptop

That's a lag issue. (the screenshot, that is).

Which also means why there are DC's. Eventually due to the big amount of lag either one disconnects.

[hard mortar]

yeah but how it can only be on valheim ? as i said, i can play gta, warthunder with 30+ players but can't connect on a 3 ppl serv in valheim

and i din't changed anything as yesterday,i was able to play, with the same wifi and same connexion speed tho

[tough hare]

Because Valheim is P2P, while warthunder is on a dedicated server hosted by another company.
Which means, that your PC and your friends X-box aren't suited for hosting a game, while the Warthunder server is.

If there's anyone else using the same internet connection as you or your friend do right now - like streaming, watching streams, movies or whatever - the amount of packets a modem has to deal with is that large, it will kick the "weaker" one.
Which by the looks of things, is you or your friend.

[hard mortar]

we're playing since a week together and the issue only started today

nothing changed, the issue just spawned

[tough hare]

Well, it's weekend. Lots of people are on their computers / laptops, X-boxes and other devices,

[hard mortar]

i was playing with them this morning, we are like at 300km of each others

idk bro... it's seem to be more complicated than that

imma try tomorrow

[tough hare]

You also mention your side all the time. What about your friend(s). Because if you experience lag, the issue may well be on their side and not on your side.

[hard mortar]

they only see me lagging

or just spawn in the serv and left after

[tough hare]

But for them all runs smoothly?

[hard mortar]

only since this afternoon, and yeah, no issue for them

imma try to run it in administrator

[tough hare]

Have they actually restarted the game after you got the problems?

Or their device?

[hard mortar]

yep, 3 time

[tough hare]

And did you too?

[hard mortar]

i can join and change some things on the world for litteraly 1 min, and after that, i got the sign in the upper left corner and i'm disconected

[hard mortar]

yep

i even redownloaded it

[tough hare]

Hot restart or cold restart?

[hard mortar]

joined is serv

no issue in admin launch right now

i'm in voc with them

and the issue is back

i told him to restart his game and the server

[hard mortar]

?

i uninstalled it completly and installed it back

[tough hare]

I suggest you close down the game, steam and then your computer.
Wait for 2 minutes, then restart your computer, start steam and start Valheim.
And only log into the multiplayer and your friends game when you're absolutely certain the game is running stable.

[hard mortar]

i don't have it on steam, but xbox app pc

[hard mortar]

in solo, i don't have any issue, even if i host a server

imma try to play agin tomorrow if my next tests are non concluant

[tough hare]

Just restart your computer after it has been shut down for 2 minutes and see what happens then.

If that doesn't work, you can try again tomorrow as you've planned to do anyway.

[hard mortar]

okay imma try it

they saying, that the participation code don't work

even if opened up the serv

imma restart my pc

[hard mortar]

restarted

[hard mortar]

same issue

and i'm on his server

[tough hare]

And I'm out of ideas about what the issue may be.

[hard mortar]

i'm down, imma wait 2 month before the game maybe got some updates

i'm mad tbh, but i can't blame nobody

for 10 sec i can see my friend moove and all, and after this time, all is down

and i'm disconnected

[fickle osprey]

There was someone who joined our dedicated server with the same issue- they have been trying to fix theirs as well but they can’t solve it and neither can I.

[hard mortar]

admin need to help us tbh

this is not my game, i don't knwo how it work

[fickle osprey]

Whose game is it?

[little trench]

John Valheim

[hard mortar]

i was enjoying the game befor this issue, thought it was just a little thing, but now i think i'm gonna leave it before new updates, it gave me a bad taste in my mouth to try for 4 hours straight to solve an issue

[fickle osprey]

I am pretty sure what the symbol refers to is poor connection, which is typically solved when looking at your wifi. But even the person I knew had their computer hardwired to their router. The only other suggestion I had for that person was to do a speed test, but they also needed to update their router (it was 5+ years old) as well as have more RAM (operating on the minimum). Is any of that something you can do?

[inner light]

how do i make a pickaxe for boulders?

[frosty frost]

Kill first boss

[tough hare]

Although I do understand your feelings right now.

It has run well before, so I doubt it's the game.
If it was the game, the problem wouldn't have been there earlier today.

[hard mortar]

imma try tomorrow

i'm sad to spend money and can't enjoy it

[tough hare]

You can still enjoy the game in single player.
Perhaps not as much fun for you as playing it with friends, but it's certainly worth a try.

[hard mortar]

but anyway, gonna try some things, and if it doesn't work, imma try to get money back

updatings my driver too

maybe it's from this

[gritty warren]

Hey, do either of you guys have VPN’s active per chance?

[hard mortar]

never

[gritty warren]

Okay, so that isn’t the problem

[hard mortar]

i'm updating all of my drivers rn (26)

imma restart my pc after and try again, and if it doesn't work, imma call an admin

[gritty warren]

Sounds good

I read the conversation from before, and Thorin listed all good ways to deal with it, but it didn’t work.

For now, you can just finish the updates on the drives, and try playing tomorrow, sometimes it’s an issue in the moment and will get better by next time

[hard mortar]

i hope, cuz i love this game, and i like Nordic mythology, i don't want to think that i spent 19€ for nothing

[hard mortar]

admin i beg you, help me

[lapis terrace]

Pinging the creator of the game at 00:44 in the middle of a saturday night isn't the best thing you can do to be perfectly honest

[hard mortar]

since it's been 5 hours i try to solve this issue i think it was necessary

[lapis terrace]

absolutly not nessesary

or do you think all our 14.500.000 users are entiteled to personal help by the 1 person who started the game creation?

[hard mortar]

i don't think so, but as you see, i'm struggling with it, i'm sorry for sure, and i appologize too, but it was the las option i got in reserve

asking to the competent autority as we say

[lapis terrace]

your problem is network related

so either one of you have a bad wifi or wireless connection

one of you use VPN

[hard mortar]

nobody use a vpn, and since the begining, i told that before this issue, i was with the same wifi, wame MB/S and we changed nothing at all

it happens all of sudden, the game crashed and since it crashed the issue started

[lapis terrace]

your internet speed got nothing to do with stability of packages recived

[hard mortar]

so, what is the problem then ?

[lapis terrace]

either make your WIFI connection better. or use a cable 😦

what is the rest of your internet connection like?

computer/laptop -> wifi -> router/model -> cable itnernet? ADSL? Fiber? 4g modem?

[hard mortar]

laptop, wifi in 4g modem

[lapis terrace]

yeah. sad to say. that's the worse combination you can have for a game like valheim

[hard mortar]

and i used it for one week straight, no problem since these 5 hours

i can't do better, and it worked perfectly since now

[lapis terrace]

could be just as simple as to many users on the same mobile mast

[hard mortar]

i'll try later

[lapis terrace]

you can try one of these websites to try to understand the issue

https://packetlosstest.com/

basicly. Valheim needs to send data like netflix, youtube or any other streaming services

[hard mortar]

but i saw many of the same issue on internet, and i think it's more complexe, since other game with the same type of gameplay/friend server thing work perfectly for me

[lapis terrace]

but if the game don't get enough information packages, you will have a bad experience in valheim

[hard mortar]

i'm not an expert but it's weird to be honest, one week like that with no problem, and now it doesn't work

[lapis terrace]

like, empty chests, portals failing, monsters teleporting

etc

I am a network engineer amongst other things

[hard mortar]

i don't have this, just disconnected, without any bug like this

[lapis terrace]

well. the game is made to disconnect you before that happens

[hard mortar]

ah, i see

[lapis terrace]

so instead of:
your friend opens a chest, put something inside it,
you then open the chest, but the information on what's inside it is lost due to package loss,
your computer tells your friend, this chest is empty.
meaning the items are now gone

to prevent this, we have told the networking that IF the connection loses enough packages in a short time spam. disconnect the user

[hard mortar]

so, i get it, but why did it work perfectly before now, with the same configuration (laptop, 4g modem without any lag, issue or bug, and now it does this ?

[lapis terrace]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cg656nGbXe4

[hard mortar]

thanks, i appreciate it, imma check everything you sent

[lapis terrace]

usually the issue with 4G or 5G connections are when to many users using the same mobile mast / connection point at the same time

the video kinda explains just that

to many users on the same router, or probably in your case, the same mobile mast

[hard mortar]

i see, thanks, now, it helped me, i can fix it

thank you

[lapis terrace]

I hope you can. it sucks when you just can't play 😦

[hard mortar]

if it doesn't work anyway, i will send a text again

[lapis terrace]

depending on what internet provider you have. you can sometimes see if the mobile mast you are connected to have alot of traffic

you could also test if netflix / youtube works on 1080p video quality

[hard mortar]

it work, i watched a serie and some video in 4k during this time

[lapis terrace]

maybe that's the problem 🤔

you where doing to much on your own internet at the same time?

[hard mortar]

i wasn't watching them while playing x)

[lapis terrace]

ok

it was just an idea

[hard mortar]

when i play i close the most of my app to just have the game

[lapis terrace]

good

minimizing the possible problems

but just having a cable between your 4G modem and your computer might help somewhat

[hard mortar]

my 4g modem is my phone 😔

[lapis terrace]

oh

and no USB-c ?

[hard mortar]

Iphone, so it's hard

[lapis terrace]

ah

then I don't know

I'm not a apple user 😄

[hard mortar]

but it's the fact that it worked really good since now that make me mad, even this morning, where i live most of people are in weekend, so i don't understand why it didn't sart to have the issue this morning

[lapis terrace]

people out partying and using the phones alot 🤷

[hard mortar]

ah yes, didn't think of that

so imma try tomorrow, and monday etc to see if it fix the thing

[lapis terrace]

it's somewhat easier to dianose the problems with phone internet. than for example ADSL. which can have water inside the wires

[hard mortar]

that's right

thanks for the help, i gained a lot of time, appreciate it

[lapis terrace]

np

next time. ping me 😄

I am "the help desk" basicly

or send email to [e-mail]

[hard mortar]

i will not try to ping anymore, and just send an email

was just my last option, i appologize

[lapis terrace]

np

frustration I get it

[hard mortar]

frustration exactly

[tough hare]

Glad it got sorted in a way.

At least I learned to ask about the kind of connection used if something like this pops up in the future.
😄

[lapis terrace]

hehe

I only got like 20+ years of helping people

can't help everyone sadly, but can very well try

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_Fz3VR7wWQ

jikes

[hard mortar]

last question, why when i try toi join them, puting th password, it just kick me immediately an say "connexion impossible" ? same kind of issue ?

[lapis terrace]

I think those are expensive

[lapis terrace]

could be a multiple issue

[gritty warren]

Smiffe to the rescue?

[lapis terrace]

either someone made a ban/white list files

or the package loss allows for connection and then it closes

[hard mortar]

more this one i think

[dark cargo]

If I am playing on a regular private multiplayer with my friend on a world we already started can I still get mods for it?

[lapis terrace]

could also be the other side uses VPN or also a wifi sollutions

[hard mortar]

thanks a lot

[lapis terrace]

np

[lapis terrace]

best to ask is in --.> #mods-discussion or #mods-issues

[dark cargo]

oh thanks!

[tough hare]

Where I failed, and actually thought it was the provider, was that it was mentioned the connection was over wifi.
What I didn't know was that the phone was working as the modem. As in Laptop -> phone -> ISP.
So in a way, I learned a lesson too. And at least know what to ask for next time. 🙂

So my thanks as well, Smiffe. You helped one person and taught someone else a nice lesson. In a good way.

🤔

[lapis terrace]

I've learned this way to tackle networking issues by the flowchart:

1. physical connections
2. network type
3. settings
4. newly introduced things

1. is cables, modem, routers etc
2. is wireless, wifi, dial up, fiber, ADSL. etc
3. VPN, protocols being used
4. what was tried, did someone install something new? new software, drivers etc

tho being on valheim since 2020 also helps since I've seen almost all types of issues already 🥲

[tough hare]

I just skipped the first 3 and went on with #4. 😄

For a moment I thought it may be a "RAM-Overload", but that would be odd, given that I haven't heard of Valheim having memory leaks.
Hence why I said to do a cold reset (reboot), as I know that helps, while a hot reboot sometimes doesn't.

When that didn't work, I was wondering if it was the ISP, because I know some networks do have problems with bad weather.
Kinda weird to know that in a way I was right about that, just not in the way it actually was the source of the problem.

[lapis terrace]

hehe

oh there are some minor memory issues

but you won't almost ever find them

step 1 and 2 usually is like 1 question. so it's easy to start with

[tough hare]

Everything has minor memory issues. But the kind of memory issues that causes major lag don't happen in Valheim.
Those are usually happening with Bethesda games. Or the Java-based MMO I occasionally play.

[lapis terrace]

ah usually not

one issue only happens to speed-runners

make world -> join world -> leave world -> make new world -> join new world -> close world -> make new new world

rince and repeat

we have it down and gonna fix it

[agile rapids]

how does on get out of this situation?

[lapis terrace]

build hammer

or jump like a mad person until your free

[agile rapids]

not sure how jumping will help

[lapis terrace]

since you're stuck inside a thing, go towards the side and just juuump alot

[true steeple]

There’s a command to reset spawn point if you need it Do this ⏬

[lapis terrace]

or fist fight the wall until you're out

[agile rapids]

aye aye

turns out i cant do mountains pre-elder. Must be a scales issue

[lapis terrace]

player model is about 1.8 meter tall but usually wants about 2 meter clearance

[agile rapids]

yeaaaaa

i died to a shaman

welp, that's just a skill issue

[lapis terrace]

not enough dodge rolling

[agile rapids]

at least he went away. didn't let me sleep

scoured a whole mountain (and like a medium sized one) and all i have to show for it is the knwledge of where i can get a dragon egg and onion seeds. looks like fighting elder in the fenris set might be a bit unreasonable

[frail cave]

I’m not able to join my friend’s server. We made a server last night and we played on it for like 4 hours with no issues. Now today I tried getting into it and it keeps saying “Failed to Connect.” I’m completely lost on how to fix the issue. We both restarted our games and everything and it still doesn’t work. The first server we made before this one, we only played on it for only a few minutes before it kicked me out saying “Failed to Connect” So we abandoned the server to make the one I can’t get to now with the same issue. Any help would be appreciated

[dark cargo]

Does anyone know a good way to fill in these gaps without having the floor ending up sticking out of the sides?

[tough hare]

Turn the floor pieces until they snap to the beams.

You may have to remove some of the other floor pieces first to get it done.
But you can put those back after the ones connected to the beams are done.

Disadvantage, the angle of the planks won't allign with the rest of the floor.

[dark cargo]

eh i dont mind the angle being different id rather that than gaps haha - thanks ill give that a try!

[coarse flax]

Alternatively you could let them stick out, then very slightly raise the ground level outside the building to cover it up

[olive mango]

hey guys may someone help me

i cant join my friends server

says failed to connect

[drowsy crane]

Is it crossplay?
Do they have crossplay enabled?

[olive mango]

im on pc with them

[drowsy crane]

Are you using the same version as them?

Be sure they aren't on a public-test build

[olive mango]

no its the same version but everybody else can join but me

[drowsy crane]

Are you joining directly or through the server list?

[olive mango]

Directly and also Thur steam as well

[drowsy crane]

Try locating their server through the server selection screen, I've had this work before.

[olive mango]

How do I do that?

[olive mango]

I’m having the same problem past 2days

[woeful pivot]

whys my hot tub randomly turning off when theres fuel in it? same with my hearth

[drowsy crane]

You should be able to filter server by name in the Join Game tab

[winged solstice]

your heart is turning off due to smoke i think

[woeful pivot]

i have a chimney

[winged solstice]

if the smoke catches up to the fire source it would turn it off

yeah it looks like ya do, though that smoke looks pretty close to the hearth. only thing i can think of rn
i haven't made or used a hot tub so can't say there

[drowsy crane]

The chimney typically needs to be far enough away to allow proper airflow, if the smoke reaches back down to the fire it'll go out.

[olive mango]

i did and still doesnt work

[drowsy crane]

That's quite odd, is this a new issue or is this your first time trying to connect to a server?

[tight nymph]

whats the fastest way to level elemental magic?

[olive mango]

imma re-install it

[drowsy crane]

I hope that works 👍

[olive mango]

wish me luck:(( but ty for helping me and if it doesnt work then im fked right?

[drowsy crane]

You could look into other solutions, restarting your modem, and perhaps even portforwarding for Valheim, though I'm unsure beyond that..

[minor forge]

Did they fix hammer sheath taking less time than other weapons?

[warm sonnet]

how many chests should a starter home have? also how do you organize them? ie 2 chests for wood, 1 for fur/pelts etc

[lapis shard]

does anyone wanan help me fight swamp

[quasi comet]

i think that's all personal preferance

do you want to stock up? alot of chests!
using the bare minimum? not alot of chests!

you dont want to organize? put them where they fit and shove anything anywhere!
you do orginize? make a storage building, fit them tightly together and make signs that tell you what is in each chest or groups of chests!

[warm sonnet]

That makes a lot of sense, but as im the more organized with signs type, im not sure how many different kinds of items id be stockpiling

Atm im at swamps for progression but id like to plan for future items too

[compact heath]

So you can already make the iron chests, if you do a lot of crypts, that helps a lot

its not the best chest in the game yet though

[compact heath]

Not really worth making a chest for each different drop, but have like categories like a meadows chest, a blackforest one, a swamp one (and swamp is starting where you might need a swamp overflow chest for full stacks) then other categories like wood, stone, metal, unsmelted things, FUEL (coal, resin etc), Nature (Leather, Deer Hide etc.) then some food chests including a cooking chest near the cauldron , chests for mead bases fermented and unfermented, find your own system 🙂

[quasi comet]

its not so easy to tell you what to be planned for, even telling you how many other things you can store doesnt cover how many of those things you want to store up and taking into account how many of those things you will use at various times in the game effectively counting as space you wont be using.... maybe i just cant thing of a way to accurately give you a correct answer, maybe somebody else can.... but for me, its something you do based on your own preferences and is a solution you need to find on your own

tho i do think Leng did a better job at guidence than i just did, lol

[compact heath]

I'd say anything from 30-40 fine wood chests might be a good number if you figure out how to put things together in some categories and overflow chests

if you're a massive hoarder and play slow you can also replace your chests with the bigger version once you unlock that in the 5th biome (just after entering that and having killed the 4th boss)

[warm sonnet]

Ig my question is more along the lines of, how many different types of wood, ingots? Fur/pelts, how many misc resources like chitin or resin etc

If i wanted a chest for every individual resource, around how many would that be

I think id like to have a "base" resource area, woods, metal stone and then group everything else by biome

[quasi comet]

7 metals, 6 woods

[warm sonnet]

Thanks guys!

[winged solstice]

make sure to have a chest shrine dedicated to storing resin 😂

[coral wharf]

On my 1st playthrough I filled a blackmetal one with resin only...

[upper nova]

hey whats up people. We want to start a third playtrough but this time with some custom modifiers. we are two peeps and we want to install some mods. can anyone recommend a server hoster where you can install mods easily?
we just want some qol mods like.. more inventory space and stuff like this because we are going to play mapless.. maybe someone has a recommendation 🙂 thanks in advance

[little trench]

i always do like this and have space always

so you see its 2 chests next to each other, u turn them to the long side or whatever

[barren crescent]

I use thunderstore for a few mods on different games.

[quasi comet]

First person mode is a neat way to play, especially with no map, really really changes how you navigate and will teach you to be more alert when fighting. also you can all just have mods installed individually.... Thunderstore is easy to usse

[frosty frost]

Folks in #mods-discussion might know of some 😄

[upper nova]

Hey thanks! @quasi comet does that mean we just have to install them individually? I mean. when we are hosting a server on dathost.net .. we only need to install them ingame? not on the server?

[quasi comet]

like Asatru said, mods discussion would be a better place, im not huge on how it works with server but some can be installed on the server for the convenience instead of every body needing to do it... i think, not 100 on it

[haughty tide]

With wishbone from bonemass equipped ,And notification"you can sense things",I am getting no pinging animation.What am i doing wrong?or what do i need to do?

[quasi comet]

its just an option instead of paying for hosting, or just have somebody host a dedicated server yourselves so you dont be paying @upper nova

https://www.valheimgame.com/support/a-guide-to-dedicated-servers/

[frosty frost]

Go to a place where Its starts pinging very fast and dig down 😉

[quasi comet]

be near something that is underground, like the new metal you will get in the mountains

[west cedar]

Is there any way to reduce fps drops other than just lowering the settings? Whenever im in certain areas like the black forest i get some fps drops

[haughty tide]

@frosty frost it does not ping at all absolutely nothing

[frosty frost]

Go to mountains with it 😄

[quasi comet]

because there is nothing near you.... and thi is confusing that you need help with mid game stuff when you have ashlands weapons

[haughty tide]

@frosty frost just came back from there,and have tried@another mountain as well

[frosty frost]

It has to be quite tall mountain, but you since you have endgame stuff, do you actually need stuff from mountains? And how did you get past them?

[haughty tide]

@quasi comet the ashlands weapons are from console command use which i tried,but have no intent to use again,i am a new player about 1 week in game

[quasi comet]

seems like you cheated yourself on playing the game the intended way

[haughty tide]

coming back to my question,why am i getting no pinging with wishbone equipped?

[frosty frost]

Because you were not on a mountain that was tall enough to have new metal

[haughty tide]

@frosty frost ok thx i try another mountain

[worthy bear]

Will the spawner be fine if I dig up the ground around it?

[frosty frost]

Yep 🙂

Its a usual tactic to dig around the geysirs to farm coal and surtling cores

[rigid sail]

quick question: Can I use the map table even if I disabled the map in the world settings ?

[quasi comet]

you can, its just pointless

[rigid sail]

why ?

I think it could be usefull

[cedar lodge]

as long as your map is turned off, you won't uncover new map areas nor be able to drop pins, so cartography table will have nothing to add, seems a good definition of pointless.. very nice piece of furniture to decorate the base tho 😁

[rigid sail]

oh ok, I thought travelling would update the map but you can only look at it with the table

[gusty scarab]

anyone know any good seeds for building on flat land?

[cedar lodge]

i don't but here probably they have some good ones https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202740443352137838

[gusty scarab]

oh i didnt see that, thank you my liege

[peak yacht]

Hey guys, really need help with something
My game crashed while I was running back to my corpse to get my items,
Loaded the game back up, but my corpse is not where I died anymore.

I think I kept my player save (from after my death), but not my world save, which just loaded a pre-death environment? Any ideas on how I could get my stuff back, or even just get a previous backup of my player?

Ah nevermind, got it! Thank goodness for the seperate world/character backups 😄

[quasi comet]

my job here is done!

[cedar lodge]

wow did you suggest it telepathically? 🪄 😆

[quasi comet]

yea... uh, lets go with that

[deep summit]

Bit of a question it's been awhile since I've played the game kind of getting back into it but I know what the recent Ashland's update in a couple others they've added some new skills that which being the cooking one, maybe it's me or where the recipes that you recently unlocked before that update where they reset? Because I'm missing a bunch of cooking recipes

[quasi comet]

there does seems to be an issue where characters from long ago need to re pick up ingredients to like "refresh" the knowladge of old recipies

[cedar lodge]

also there are new crafting stations, many recipes of the cauldron moved to the new "Food Preparation Table" and "Mead Ketill"

[tough hare]

The recipes have been split over 3 different devices now.

Some are done in the cauldron like you're used to.
Some are done in a new kettle for mead, which should unlock once you start getting Black Forest metal.
Some are done at a table, which should unlock when you get iron.

Edit: And you will get a new list of recipes once you get that table and unlock the swamp npc.

[quasi comet]

also what Vincy said

[deep summit]

That's annoying 😑😑😑

[tough hare]

IN what way?

[quasi comet]

but i stand behind my statement, playing with returning players, an example would be one had to re pick up onions to make a salad witch is in the cauldron, and always has been

even tho, obviously they had onions since before they came back to play heading into mistlands

[cedar lodge]

yup, this is true, happened also to have to re-kill certain creatures to unlock items sold at new trader

[deep summit]

Well I'm trying to get back into the game after some serious time away

[tough hare]

Are you using an old character or a new one?
And old world or new world?

[cedar lodge]

so you have a lot to discover, especially food/mead-wise, start by lookingfor new swamp patches you didn't explore before and look on the map for a new sybol to appear

re-touch every material you have unlocked (just to be sure) and look for new stations in the "crafting" hammer menu

also i would make an extra visit to both the old Dvergr traders

[deep summit]

Both old world/toon

[tough hare]

In that case, do as Vincy suggested and make sure you harvest each and every item up to where you are now to relearn recipes and / or unlock new crafting stations.

And yes, I know it's a bit of work, but in the end it's worth it.

[deep summit]

Yea I've seen the new stations that's they added I guess I can see the ketill and the food prep station makes sense to clear up some space,

[quasi comet]

or start new to get back in the groove

[cedar lodge]

yup a little kitchen rearrange is due, not that much tho, new stations fit in relatively narrow spaces and don't have min/max distance limitations

[cedar lodge]

this is also very fun, at least to me (early game enthusiast)

[deep summit]

Yea I started a couple new toons, made a server for a group I was gonna play with but they all died off

[tough hare]

FYI, you can place all 3 the metallic cooking devices on one hearth.
Put the cauldron and Kettil in front as close to the edge as possible, then the iron cooking spit at the back.
That would save some room for sure.

[deep summit]

Oh yeah I got that all set up

[urban zinc]

Can I close the Queen's door? I accidentally opened the door in construction mode.

[deep summit]

I think once it's open it's open

[tough hare]

Not that I'm aware off.
Won't matter much if it's open or closed, as she's the only boss that's already spawned anyway.
Just don't enter that area as long as you aren't ready for the fight.

[urban zinc]

Oh no, it ruined the game

thank you guys!

[delicate condor]

galdr table lv3 and black forge lv2 are the cap given to Mistlands, right?

[frosty frost]

Both lvl3

[delicate condor]

what am I missing for black forge lv3?
I can only see the black forge cooler, what's the other?
what material does it require? maybe I didn't discover it yet

[frosty frost]

Do you have refined eitr?

[delicate condor]

yes

[frosty frost]

Then look into the artisan table 🙂

[delicate condor]

mechanical spring?

[frosty frost]

Yep

[delicate condor]

👍

[quasi comet]

crafting everything even once, is a good idea in a game of progression

[deep summit]

It's the metal cutter, you get it once you reach the ashlands and find flametal and some other biome specific materials

[frosty frost]

No, its the vice.

[deep summit]

Wasn't for me

[frosty frost]

Its one of the 2 upgrades you get in mistlands, and they were asking what upgrades are in mistlands, metal cutter is in ashlands

[quasi comet]

then you skipped it, lvl 4-5 is ashlands

[deep summit]

Must be new to me then I'm getting back into the game

[quasi comet]

atleast... in the intended way, you can use a gem cutter to unlock lvl 2 if you managed it

[frosty frost]

It was added with hildirs update, and that was nearly a year before ashlands

[quasi comet]

beat me to it Asatru

[deep summit]

How do you make it?

[frosty frost]

Mechanical spring unlocks it

[quasi comet]

as noted above

[deep summit]

Ty

What else goes with the black forge

[frosty frost]

2 more upgrades in ashlands, metal cutter and gem cutter

[deep summit]

Haven't seen the gem cutter yet

[delicate condor]

no no it was the spring, it got me a weird black forge improvement

[quasi comet]

need more fort

[frosty frost]

You need material from fortresses to get it

[frosty frost]

Wdym weird? xD Its a vice for holding stuff

[quasi comet]

one step closer to a time when blacksmithing is lost from memory 😦

[delicate condor]

ah yes a vice, ahah I'm sorry

[opaque barn]

what is the command for a one star boar?

[true steeple]

Spawn boar 1 2

[delicate condor]

is there a way I can make some kind of "death knight" build with carapace armor set, mistwalker and dead raiser?
what food would you guys suggest?

[frosty frost]

That would be hard since you need 100 eitr for summoning, it might be posible tho

[delicate condor]

hmm

[true steeple]

2 eitr 1 stamina. If you have staff of protection you don’t need health.

But if you use that you also won’t be helped much from the carapace armor

[delicate condor]

a friend was saying that skilling up dead raiser will at some point have me only needing 1 eitr food?

Seeker Aspic is the one that gives the most, right?
But do I need to constantly find infested mines for Royal Jelly?
Isn't there a way to self-sustain that?

[frosty frost]

Royal jelly respawns in the mines 🙂

[delicate condor]

ohh I had zero idea, how much does it take?

[frosty frost]

2 jelly for 1 aspic

[tired root]

Actually 1 for 1. The recipe is 2 seeker meat, 2 jelly and 2 magecaps and it produces 2 Seeker Aspics

[frosty frost]

Aaah, thats true 😄 i forgot you craft 2 at once

[tired root]

Aspic is quite cheap food, same as Salad.

[icy patrol]

is the frostener core a guaranteed drop from moder

[true steeple]

Moder drops a trophy and dragon tears. Is this a modded item? #mods-discussion

[delicate condor]

skeletons summoned by dead raiser, how many can I summon?
is there a cap?

[icy patrol]

oh is it. huh i thought it was a base game weapon

[true steeple]

Yes. The level of the dead raiser is the amount of skeletons you can summon

[true steeple]

Frostner is a base game weapon, but there is no frostner core

[icy patrol]

oh then how do i obtain it. was looking up guides and it said i needed a core

lying ass AI

[true steeple]

Have you bought Ymir flesh from Haldor?

[icy patrol]

i have not ima go do that

thx again

[little trench]

any console commands to advance time? like so crops grow faster

[true steeple]

You can use sleep

[coral wharf]

There is "skiptime number of seconds" idk how it works with crops grow timer...

[delicate condor]

Barney sorry to ping, do you know how much blood magic skill points I need to lower the eitr requirement to use dead raiser? I want to reach 1 cast with only 1 food, is it possible?

rn im afk farming with my 2 skeletons on a greydwarf nest like you suggested a while ago lol

[cedar lodge]

it's 47, i know because i tried, and gave up

[little trench]

idk

[haughty hinge]

47 with aspic iirc

[delicate condor]

perfect, thanks guys!

started my first 20mins farm and I got to skill pts 10

hopefully it's not incremental the time required to skill up lol

[tough hare]

If you simply had checked the wiki, you'd saved yourself a lot of time asking here.....

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Dead_Raiser

check the notes.......

[quartz pine]

hey could someone help me grab my body in the ashlands? none of my friends are on rn but i wanna get my stuff back lol

[tough hare]

You could check for the "Body Recovery Squad" in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510

They usually have someone who's able to help you.

[quartz pine]

oh awesome i didnt know that was a thing

[coral wharf]

Oh but it is... Each next level requires more exp to reach...

• With that 1eitr food for 1 cast - I hope you are aware that you can cast it only shortly after eating as all your stats diminish overtime...

• The skeletons from dead raiser are kinda weak even with some blood magic lvls... If you wanna play as a "battlemage" I'd leave the dead raiser at home and stuck with "staff of protection" + 1 elemental staff of choice (I'd pick fire for mistlands and nature in Ashlands)

[halcyon crag]

it makes them grow faster xD i usually use increments of 2000 seconds or 4000 seconds

roughly works out at 1/2 a day-a day

[delicate condor]

gotcha

[delicate condor]

the skill-up of blood magic happens on skeletons hitting or killing?

[steep tusk]

On-hit afaik.

[coral wharf]

I think a skelly dying also grants exp

[minor forge]

QUESTION:::: !!!!!!! Does anyone know how to turn brightness or gamma down? DO i need a mod to do it? I want to play valheim with true darkness nighttimes, like pitch black night so I have to use fires and stuff to see.

[steep tusk]

Doing that without making your daytime also pitch black would require a mod, yes.

[minor forge]

I couldnt find a settign anywhere for brightness

darn okay

[steep tusk]

#mods-discussion would be the place (if anyone has even made such a thing)

[minor forge]

this game is just way too bright at night, kinda like minecraft

[steep tusk]

That is subjective.

[minor forge]

I'll put a question in there, thanks

too bright for my personal liking

[steep tusk]

Earth's nighttime is going to drastically disappoint you 😦

[light sonnet]

Is there a way to go further down in the ground than the pickaxe allows? I'm trying to make a canal and there is a bump in it that renders the canal as unusable.

[steep tusk]

No. 7 up/7 down is the limit.

[steep tusk]

8m or 8 hits?

Because I am speaking in terms of hits.
If I smack the ground 7 times it doesn't go lower for me.

[little trench]

yea you can spawn some boat and that deletes ground under it. saw some vid about it before. takes long time for the game to load tho

[cold crater]

which stone is the strongest?

for ashlands builds

[steep tusk]

Black Marble.

[frosty frost]

Grausten, but its pieces can be stronger or weaker than black marble or stone depending on each individual piece, but walls are stronger exept the 1x2x1

[cold crater]

so im gonna build a big wall with these is that a good idea?

[frosty frost]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Grausten_structures
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Black_marble_structures
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Stone_structures

[frosty frost]

Yep

[cloud robin]

how do i have the small hotbar show up with arrows and food near my healthbar/foodbar

[frosty frost]

If you mean extra slots then that is a moded thing

[cloud robin]

ah ok thanks

[deep summit]

Not for me brother, it's so dark I can't see nothing

[tight nymph]

does staff of the wild give xp when its summoned roots deal damage?

[tired root]

Afaik roots don't but the projectile that you shoot does.

[tight nymph]

thanks

[gusty yarrow]

[lunar glen]

Hey folks, quick question. On my server, I have base raids turned off. Yet, I keep getting Seekers (the flying bugs from mistlands) attacking my base. Anyone know what this is happening?

[compact heath]

if you have killed Yagluth, seekers can spawn in some biomes at night, is that whats happening?

[lunar glen]

Oooh. I didn't know that was a thing. I have killed Yagluth. But I'm in the meadows.

[compact heath]

smallish patrols and can usually not have stars, they are referred to as "night spawns" and there is currently no world modifier to turn them off

and yes this does happen in meadows after yag;uth

[lunar glen]

Well shoot. They keep attacking my pigs and chickens.

[compact heath]

gotta put up some more defenses

[tough hare]

Or at least enclosed walls and a roof over the area you have those animals.

[lunar glen]

Like what? lol. I put up the spiked walls from mistlands. And they keep spawning on the ocean.

[compact heath]

if you got a little eitr and ygg wood frm mistlands and some iron/black metal etc you can pop up a few ballistae with seeker trophy against them

craft "mechanical spring" at artisan table to unlock those

[lunar glen]

Oh interesting.

Do I have to supply them with ammo?

[compact heath]

yes

[real nebula]

for the record, seekers require the queen to have been killed, not yagluth

yag enables fuling spawns at night

[compact heath]

true i sometimes muddle it up if it enables its biomes enemies )some) or the next haha

[lunar glen]

Is it seeker trophy bc that's what I want it to hunt?

[compact heath]

if Queen is not dead the seekers must spawn from a nearby mistlands even if its a nectremely tiny one

[compact heath]

yes the ballistae can be told what to hunt with trophies, this does NOT consume the trophy which is great

[lunar glen]

Sweet.

[compact heath]

if you don't tell it what to hunt....

[lunar glen]

Queen is dead. Mistlands is soooo far away. I'm on the original island.

[compact heath]

makes sense with the nightspawn then

ballistae is great for seeker nightspawn on shore because an earth wall might not stop them as they can fly

[lunar glen]

Makes sense. Thank you. I've got 2 ballista set up

[warm sonnet]

is there a way to turn off just the minimap?

[compact heath]

not with world modifiers only #mods-discussion

[warm sonnet]

guessing by the channel suggestion that itd require mods? was hoping there mightve been a command or maybe a setting for it

[compact heath]

if there is a devcommand for that specifically than I don't know that one, possible but I think unlikely, could try googling it a bit

I know there is a devcommand but it does the same thing as the nomap world modifier and takes not just the minimap away

[night siren]

Make sure you got trophies in those things lol, otherwise they will hunt everything that moves including yourself

[fringe stump]

Hailmary logged into find my character stuck in a very fast rotation from which I can not stop. Game is unplayable and when I log out and back in the problem persist.

[weary birch]

Try closing the game entirely

[fringe stump]

I have twice including rebooting computer once as well

[compact heath]

have you ever had mods installed?

[fringe stump]

Yes I do just very strange was playing logged out to run errands and came back to an unplayable game

[compact heath]

might have to save your screenshots and characters / worlds and reinstall potentially

[heady wren]

Has anyone found a fix to the failed to connect to server issue?

1. Can sometimes connect to a hosted dedicated server, but only when friends are not already connected. When i'm connected to the hosted server and they try to join, they either cant or i get d/c
2. When I host a dedicated server they can join but my main PC cannot.
3. I can connect to the hosted server w/ my laptop but not my main pc.

[carmine talon]

Hello I have a specific question about windmills on dedicated servers. So after some testing in single player I see that windmills will process barley at whatever your current wind speed is. This means you can have some wind mills in one location, then go to a biome that has a storm and sleep, and the windmills will process barley faster.

now i am wondering, how does this work with multiple people on a dedicated server? whos wind speed does it use to calculate?

i am unable to test this and cant find an answer on google ):

[jade olive]

It's not the storms that do it, but the passage of time when you sleep. It keeps working threw the night. On a server it will work the same but everyone has to sleep other wise its all up to the speed of the wind time will go by normal. So if everyone is willing to sleep you get that time bump.

[carmine talon]

I am pretty sure it is determined by wind strength at least on single player. I did two tests.

First test I tried the windmill was placed in a biome with calm weather. Then I went to another biome far away and set it to thunderstorm. Then I slept, when I returned to the windmill everything was finished.

On test two I did the same setup except this time I slept and set the biome to calm weather. When I checked the windmill, it still was not finished processing 50.

In both tests I loaded the windmill and slept at the EXACT (using mods) same time of day. This leads me to believe it is the wind strength of the current players location (again on single player) that determines the windmill processing speed, and not a fixed time.

now maybe this rule is changed on dedicated servers? that i dont know

[jade olive]

Humm with mod that could change things. If weather can go on, higher winds or a storm could happen. If it's set threw a mod will it be that way the whole time or will it change? I have storms when I'm in other places but come home and my windmill still working soI am unsure other then sleeping has that time boost.

[carmine talon]

naw the mods i used are just to view information about the game like azuclock/ESP to help me with testing. none of the mods change the core aspects of the game.

i used the vanilla commands to test the windmills in different storms/wind strengths. Of course in reality the wind and weather is changing all the time in game, but i am simply trying to get a baseline of how the windmills work and i need consistent conditions to do that

[frosty frost]

No no, it Is still based on winds strenght, but i am not sure if the area with windmills "remembers" the windspeed it had when you left or not.

[carmine talon]

yea i am wondering, does it use the wind strength of the last person in the area? is there some global wind value it uses? or average wind speed of all players online?

[frosty frost]

Each biome has Its own windspeed ať any given time.

[jade olive]

If weather can go on I'd say it's the luck of the draw then. Weather will do what it will do so you won't have a consistent way. I know if it storms in the plans and you visit another it's still storming. It dose change by the biome.

[carmine talon]

right but lets say i place a windmill down in plains. then my friend comes to my plains base. then we both leave the area. i go to black forest. friend goes to meadows. in the black forest it is thunderstorm. in the meadows it is calm.

which one it uses?

[frosty frost]

The plains windspeed, i am just not sure if it will keep going with the windspeed it had when you left/unloaded the area or if it will be using the current plains windspeed.

[carmine talon]

hmmm ok. yea this is what i would expect too. its just that my single player testing contradicts this as from what i can tell, the windmill processes at the speed your current player is at (not the wind speed of the biome its placed in).

but again on a server it could be different

i guess ill just have to find a way to test it for a conclusive answer lol

[jade olive]

Could test with a friend and see either you or they stay at the windmill and the other goes elsewhere and see how the wind changes. If it's your world would think it's linked to you?

[carmine talon]

its finding that friend thats the issue xD dont really have friends that play this game. but i have no clue. on a dedicated server there would be no difference between me or any other player, so i doubt that would be the case. with steam hosting though i am not sure. i imagine it will be a similar result to dedicated servers.

[jade olive]

An idea poped in my head. If it's storming in the biome I'm in and go tp to another and it's calm, but come back a min later and it's still storming. Would that not be a waist if the weather is linked to you. So if you go somewhere calm the windmill slows down?

[compact heath]

weather is not linked to you, its not even random, its 100% set depending on biome and what day and time it is in the game

if its centered on player and then affects windmills like that I have not tested how it actually works with windmills, not sure if wiki has something on that

[jade olive]

Thank you for confirming that. I thought it was strange to what we were discussing.

[compact heath]

no worries, like day 323 at 8am in the plains it will be the same weather thats how it works

[cedar lodge]

i knew about the scheduled weather, still curious about windmills, didn't test it either, but felt kind of oddly slow sometimes when leaving the area for some time, so maybe Asatru's hypotesis? #valheim-help message

[compact heath]

yeah most likely not enough testing done there, I never have problems about the windmills going too slow, 2 for solo is often enough if build in a windier biome

[cedar lodge]

yup, i even go with one and never had flour stock problems, just curious

[desert monolith]

I think you can spawn Eithyr, keep him trapped in a deep hole, and have windmills there for constant 100% wind, since he spawns a special local storm.

But the reality is you don’t need that. Just have 2-3 windmills in the Plains, they have higher wind.

[willow raft]

Not the wind we need but the wind we deserve?

Would be hilarious though.
"Here is my own wind generator, he can be a but surly at times but he does his job really well."

[worthy bear]

if I explore some deep north area now, will the area get updated once deep north release or will it stay the same?

[winged solstice]

possible chance to not be compatible with bees

[winged solstice]

it will stay the same. the new stuff will load in unloaded areas

[carmine talon]

Funny enough it was actually this idea that inspired me to want to figure this out. I first heard about this from this reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/valheim/comments/1i5lb09/i_just_discovered_how_windmills_works/

and yea i know a couple windmills does the job. but i just am curious about how the exact mechanics work and like maxing efficiency.

[coral wharf]

the area thet you "render in" might get issues with update, or so i heard

and as for now its just an 100% empty biome - nothing to look for there so i'd suggest to not go there before update if u intend to play the same world after it goes live

[willow raft]

It can depending on what they do with the terrain, like with ashland anything that was build on it or close to it had something happen to it, could be minor things to builds completely broken.

[compact heath]

I'm doing a new playthrough on my oldest map for testing purposes, including pre-release ashlands and mistlands, just to see what happens and things, just fun research haha

[coral wharf]

Cool, try messing around as much as possible with good distance in between and map markings

• for the science!

The difference in between doing bumb stuff and science is : taking notes

[tired root]

I also did that in my oldest world. I went with fly mode in the middle to the edge of the world through Ashlands pre-patch to see how it went different compared to post-patch. And in progress so much land was revealed that only 16 fortresses could be spawned in that world.

[urban sand]

I downloaded the planbuild mod but the text looks like that. Any idea how to fix it? Other than that I think it runs well but I havent tested it lol

[stoic trench]

https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966 Try asking here, they’ll have better answers 🙂

[urban sand]

oh thansk

didnt notice it

[stoic trench]

No worries! There’s a lot of channels, I get it

[jade olive]

As my world is old and I built in the edge of the deep north. I can tell you it's a diffret world with the land sink to seperate the biomes. I have a mountain range cut back and floating rocks all linked together in a chain and huge towers of dirt attached to cabins and towers. My friend says I have Narina in my game lol. I just didn't know at the time.

I guess the only way to fix this is to regenerate the map?

[ebon marsh]

Correct, does the mountain literally look like it’s been sliced in half?

[split blaze]

i went to sleep on valheim and when i woke up i was falling out of the map, now i cant die or move... please help D:

[lilac coyote]

Mods, probably.

[split blaze]

any mods online that can help?

[frosty frost]

Restart, turn off mods, tell if it got fixed 🙂

[lilac coyote]

Yeah, adding more mods won't make things better.

[frosty frost]

Mods are the most likely thing that broke the game 😄

[split blaze]

i havent installed any new mods in days

[frosty frost]

Doesent matter.

[lilac coyote]

Doesn't make much difference.

[split blaze]

i see

is there a way to turn off all mods simutaenously? or i just gotta take them all out of bepinex

[lilac coyote]

If you're using a mod manager, sure. But #mods-discussion is definitely the best place for that kind of talk.

[frosty frost]

No idea, folks in the #mods-discussion or #mods-issues might know tho 🙂

[split blaze]

sounds good, thankss

[near plume]

guys is there a way to change your characters name?

[frosty frost]

Not in game, may be possible by messing with game files

[near plume]

ill try this, hopefully it dosent delete my character

Any thoughts on what this means?

#mods-issues 🙂

[fringe stump]

Cross posted anything else you can add?

[lilac coyote]

No, that's still the best place.

[frosty frost]

Not really, this channel is for vanilla problems. 🙂

[compact heath]

I’d make sure your screenshots and local worlds and characters are all backed up and uninstall, unless you find someone who is extremely knowledgeable about this. You have tried loading with no mods at all yes?

Clean install fixes a lot of things and makes sure no traces of bad mods remain

There is a sticky about how to remove mods here

[jade olive]

No what has happened it it was cut back like a scoop of ice-cream out of a container. So all the stones are freestanding were the land once was it is quite a site. It's a huge chain of stones up to an ice cave and behind a huge dirt Pilar to a castle its quite funny.

[frosty frost]

Yeah, happened on pre ashlands worlds because of the height map change on borders with DN and Ashlands 🙂

[jade olive]

Yes at the time I didn't know but the aftermath is quite amazing how to turned out. I would think most things would collapse. Small rocks.and tres do witch if fun to see. But they mountain and the plains are a mess. On the handy side rock mining is so easy now if you can get them to pop

[frosty frost]

The trees should fall to the new ground level but the rocks stay and it looks almost like the floaty rocks from Avatar 😄

[fading herald]

Hello, I'm playing a world with a friend and sometimes it happens to us that we disconnect and he appears without armor, he simply disappears, does anyone know why that is?

[dark cargo]

Does anyone know if this still works? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnEFQz-rZ5g

I am following it step by step but my walkway keeps breaking, including the iron floors

[sour quiver]

Is there a fix to the incompatible version popup?

[lilac coyote]

Having the correct version?

[tough hare]

Making sure you both use the same mods? Or no mods at all?

[lilac coyote]

Preferably no mods.

[fading herald]

Hello, I'm playing a world with a friend and sometimes it happens to us that we disconnect and he appears without armor, he simply disappears, does anyone know why that is?

[icy patrol]

how do i see in the mistlands i cant see shit out there

torches ?

[night siren]

Wisp torches, which can be placed down without a bench, and equip a wisp light

I just made it to that biome and yeah it's nuts for vision.

[icy patrol]

ty ty and yh i got jumped by seekers and couldnt see shit

[night siren]

Yeah the seekers are nasty. There's a cape in the mistlands that you can make that really helps with the terrain

[icy patrol]

nice and what exactly am i looking for in the mistlands

[compact heath]

there are dungeons that have mostly characteristic structures to identify them by, then their is friendly camps of npcs, and also skulls to mine for previous resources, and you need to bring some black metal (smelted) to harvest something from the roots

[copper urchin]

did they patch yag's belly drag?

[steep tusk]

Yag has a belly?

[copper urchin]

nvm

he has a "feature" where his chest hitbox extends into the ground

[cold crater]

i heard marble is immune to the refinery damage
is the new ashland stone imune too or is that perk exclusive to marble?

[frosty frost]

Nope, it Is only immune to Spirit and poison

[cold crater]

alright ty
saddly farming marmor is a bit more annoying

[frosty frost]

You can use iron cages too 🙂

[livid badge]

do all mobs like boars and deers only respawn once in ur terrain? I think I killed them all

they populate right?

[lilac coyote]

Nothing respawns. But new ones will spawn.

[livid badge]

yeah I think thats what respawn means

but thanks tho 👍

[lilac coyote]

There is a difference.

[willow raft]

There is a difference.
Respawn means exactly the same, same weapon(s), stars and place.
New ones spawning means there can be a difference in how many stars, weapons and such.

[livid badge]

well same mobs same thing but yeah I get it

[willow raft]

Deers and boars will keep on spawning but for starred boars you need to be 800m away from spawn.
Deers can have stars anywhere.
Boars that are spawned by boar stones or abandoned "farms" can have stars in the 800m radius but they are only generated once.

There is a limit of 4 deer and 4 boar in a certain radius, if they are spawned by the world.
1-9 boars can be found near a boar stone.

[livid badge]

I see, thats a great info to have, cheers man

[pliant briar]

i just witnessed 3... "things" and idk if would attack me or not if i mine their resoureces

[frosty frost]

They will not attack you 🙂 but they will start to sink eventually

And they are called Leviathans.

[gilded ridge]

Yo, i seen your progression look's very good. Keep exploring man

[finite yoke]

Once you start mining them, they start to sink (IIRC its smth line a 10% chance to start sinking every swing) and once they start sinking, you have approx 10 secs to evacuate. Parking your ship so that the ladder is next to the leviathan is a good strat to evacuate quickly.

[crystal kiln]

iirc reloading resets the sinking timer, unless that was fixed

[true steeple]

I haven't seen anything about that in any patch notes so it should still work

[cold crater]

is there any buildable material that is too hard for greydwarfs to damage

[true steeple]

No, unless you count terrain

[cold crater]

alright ty

i found a working way with the terrain

[cold crater]

does valheim leveling get increasingly harder or is it the same amount of xp for each lvl

[lilac coyote]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Skills#Experience_gain

[feral aspen]

Is anyone available I'm having issues with crafting in the black forge.

[stoic trench]

What kind of issues?

[feral aspen]

I have all the materials in my inventory and I'm trying to craft the carapace breastplate but the craft button is greyed out and says missing requirements.

[stoic trench]

20 Carapace
3 scale hide
5 iron
4 refined Eitr

You have all this?

[feral aspen]

Yes

[stoic trench]

Are you able to open the crafting UI?

[feral aspen]

Yes I am

[stoic trench]

Hmm that’s strange. Any mods? Are any of the materials flashing red in the requirements?

Could you provide a screenshot?

[feral aspen]

Just a server from nitrado, no mods. I've had my friend try to make it, same issue. I've tried loading another character same thing, I tried going into a local file no change. I've stopped and reset the server, and yes I can provide a screenshot.

[stoic trench]

That’s really weird. You said you tried bringing that character to another world to try and craft it there? Super odd

[feral aspen]

The only things that I've had highlighted are both shields and the helmet. This also haven't affected the magic table as far as I'm aware.

Yeah I'm so lost on what to do at this point, I've tried to troubleshoot it as best as I could.

[buoyant peak]

What about a single player world?

[feral aspen]

Yes I've tried that.

[buoyant peak]

Because the only issue might be nitrado then. Can't think of anything else

[feral aspen]

I mean if it was just nitrado it should work in single player then I'm assuming.

[compact heath]

Have you tried verifying game files?

[feral aspen]

Yes I have verified the game files a couple days ago.

[compact heath]

Your issue is indeed very strange if you have no mods and never had them installed before

[feral aspen]

Yeah, at this point I'm just short of doing a clean install.

[buoyant peak]

Well that is true

[crystal kiln]

well, there is one step further than verifying game files: nuking your installation properly

[buoyant peak]

Uninstall and then remove all installation files

[compact heath]

if you have another PC yours or a friend with an installation could test this on there too

[feral aspen]

Yeah my friend logged into his character and I handed him the materials to see if he could craft it.

Well I suppose at this point and do a clean install on the server and my computer and see if anything changes.

[crystal kiln]

enable free build from the dev console?

[feral aspen]

I haven't tried anything related to free build.

[crystal kiln]

try that and see what happens

[feral aspen]

Okay I was able to craft the items in free build, but I checked my main world and nothing changed. It appears I'm unable to upgrade the items either.

[brazen dagger]

anyone know how to transfer a world to to google drive so a friend can download it and play on it

[compact heath]

What I do is this: Manage Saves - worlds - move to local, then find it in your valheim directory on your hard drive > find worldname.fwl and worldname.db and copy and send these 2 files. There are some other files too but maybe someone else can chime in about those, haven't needed them yet, I also do this move to local for when I back up worlds for when I do testing on PTB etc.

[worldly dagger]

How can one craft the frost staff? It does not appear on the crafting panel.

[true steeple]

Do you have all the right ingredients at the Galdr Table?

[weary brook]

Hello, Where can i find comunnity servers on valheim without password, because i want to join servers but they have passwords

[compact heath]

Are you at the correct crafting table? The magic one called Galdr table, you will need wood and other things from 6th Biome (Mistlands) and another ingredient from the Mountains (4th biome) to craft it. The station itself needs Mistlands things to craft as well and requires you to have progressed quite a lot in both Mountains and Plains and Mistlands.

[worldly dagger]

Oh? Plain metals?

[compact heath]

Plains metal will be required in order to obtain one of the things needed overall yes, and lots of things from Mistlands

[worldly dagger]

Oh ok. Let me check the recipe again.

[compact heath]

You will want to have killed 4th and 5th boss and progressed quite a bit in Mistlands to get the frost staff

[worldly dagger]

I killed ||yaluth and moder||

[compact heath]

okay should have some black metal then, and also some freeze glands from mountain

[worldly dagger]

Oh? Freeze gland? From those frost spitting things?

[compact heath]

yep

You will also need Ygg wood from Mistlands, and bring black metal bars to Mistlands, aquire something from the NPC in mistlands and also get a few things you can mine in Mistlands, along something that you can only get in Mistlands dungeons, to make that new crafting station if you dont have it yet

[worldly dagger]

I still need the glands

I forgot to bring bows while I was in mountains

[compact heath]

ah okay, do you have the galdr table and all the mistlands stuff?

[worldly dagger]

Yes

[compact heath]

might only be missing the glands then

[worldly dagger]

The only staff I need to craft is the frost one

[compact heath]

the other 3 mist staves are also great

[worldly dagger]

Yeah!

I love the bubble

[compact heath]

I like to play hybrid character build too, with bubble + embers staff and then use sword and shield and heavy armour as well, 1 Health Food, 1 Stamina and 1 Eitr

Works a treat for my playstyle in the 7th biome as well

[tired root]

Hybrid builds benefit greatly from the 2 best feasts.

[compact heath]

Yep, Mist feast is great but I m not using the Ash feast that often, as we often restart the play through about a week or so after we kill Fader

[tired root]

Both feasts belong to my go to end game foods plus either piquant pie/roasted crust pie/marinated greens depending which stat I desire.

I usually keep playing long even after defeating all bosses.

[compact heath]

thats the sort of people I want to find for my 2 servers 🙂

[keen badge]

how do i garden?

[frosty frost]

You need cultivator and seeds 🙂

[elder mountain]

Nevermind! Just playing around with the number gave me the center effect I was looking for

[quasi comet]

which channel can help with a crash report?

[silk lichen]

How i can repair my helmet and my other clothes?

[true steeple]

You can repair items at the same workstation you use to craft them

Each item has a minimum level the workstation must be to repair that item

[frosty frost]

Go to workbench and you should have a box with hammer here 🙂

[silk lichen]

How i be higher level bc i am only level 1 😦

ah ok i have one more is level 2

all rights

[jade olive]

Dose any one have any tricks in building in deep water. I am makeing a land bridge and was going good but it got a little to deep and now I'm at a loss to make supports. I am using the roof method to go down rise thr land as high as it can. But now I can't get supports down low enough they break fast. Am going to try core wood since it's longer to see if they works. Any ideas welcome.

[true steeple]

You upgrade workstations by building improvements around them

[jade olive]

Oh and is there a secret to snap points on roof pieces? I rotate threw the snap points and just can't get them end to end.

[worthy bear]

Does the wolf raid trigger anywhere? I am going down the mountain transporting silver ore to the nearby swamp then it triggered

[true steeple]

It can trigger in mountains or plains

[vague goblet]

They're usually pretty good. What material are you using?

[subtle parrot]

I would suggest devcommands and using fly to go underwater

[jade olive]

Just wood thatch. Building from below is no problem but trying to get them to snap down it will go to the side or on top but not to the end. I've tried the conneres the center and just won't go end to end going down under water.

[vague goblet]

Could you show a screenshot?

[jade olive]

Well if I want to cheat yeah thats an idea if I get desperate

[vague goblet]

There's definitely a limit to how deep you can go with it but if it's snapping to the other directions it's weird it won't go right under it.

[jade olive]

I can try but it's getting a bit hard to see. I have support built out but I'm like 2 down and now they just break but yeah going to the end it just wants to go any other place. My best guess I am now to far away even though I have gotten very low.

[tough hare]

You can change your snapping points using the [E] key.
For roof pieces you got 4 options, two at the top corners, two at the bottom corners. Pick one of the corners, make sure the snapping is done, turn the roof piece until it fits completely and place it.

[jade olive]

I have tried that but it won't snap to the end since I am looking down and I go threw E it shapes to sides or right on top of the place roof but getting the end is just not working. I tried both ends the center the edge and it's a mess.

I'll try to get an underwater

[tough hare]

I'm curious, are you trying to get that bridge done through ocean at some point?

[jade olive]

No this is sunken land when they separated the DN and this is just a silly project but I am doing this to get to a base I had and saved. Right now it says mistlands.

[tough hare]

I was asking because I fear you won't be able to get it done completely.
Even with the "Fly" dev command you won't be able lower your view much below water level.
The "Free Fly" dev command might, but I can't be sure about it because I've never tested that.

But if the area is changed after the DN got seperated from the rest, it's likely the water will become too deep at some point, making it impossible to raise the land and build supports on it to get the task done. Especially since you will need iron for the supports at some point.

[glacial compass]

Hey everyone, I just came back from a few months long break of the game. I loaded up an old world and immediately noticed the game is acting very unresponsive. For example, I'll be sprinting (not toggled or auto run) I'll stop moving and the game will take over second to register that I stopped. This is on xbox BTW with m+kb and I'm using dev commands.

[jade olive]

Yeah I am worried about that too. I think I am at the deepest spot now. The land dose go up and down and I was able to rise the land at the base and saved it. There are rocks to the right and the land is higher so I could zag over there. The land dose seam to rise some in my path. As you can see I'm very close.

Just wish I could figure out why sniping looking down is so hard with the roof.

[glass minnow]

bruh why

man

ah they need to be sheltered ok

[jade olive]

What are you doing? Eggs?

[glass minnow]

yeah, I am missing a roof

[jade olive]

Oh OK well they don't need to sheltered but if you want to protect them then lock them up tight so bats can't get them. As long as a fires is close by your good. And don't waist seeds to feed the dandelion's are free start picking them up.

[worthy bear]

Does the howling cavern, smouldering tomb, and sealed tower work like the traders? If I visit one, the others won't spawn anymore?

[subtle parrot]

You can do them all

[indigo kindle]

hey my friend somehow has the 0.220 update and it won’t let us play together since we’re on two different versions is there anything i can do

[icy patrol]

welp brok a dvergr chest by accident and now i cant get my stuff cause i keep getting murdered any tips

[subtle parrot]

They need to remove the PTB

[indigo kindle]

ptb?

[subtle parrot]

Player test branch, for testing updates before they roll them out

[indigo kindle]

ohh ok any idea of how to do that

he’s on xbox

[subtle parrot]

Make new gear, don't go back over there until you are stronger, you can still go to other dverger camps and they won't aggro you unless you mess with their stuff too

[icy patrol]

ah fair

[subtle parrot]

They would need to have enabled it through the insider hub app

[indigo kindle]

got it ok

[subtle parrot]

So they would need to go back through that and disable it, then they will need to restart their xbox and update the game if that is what the case is

[indigo kindle]

ok cool thank you

[worldly dagger]

How do I make stuffed sage cap?

[night siren]

food prep table, I think its plains/mistland crafting workbench

[steady seal]

Is there a feast for each biome? I've gotten wolf meat and onions but still no sign of a mountain themed feast

[sturdy hull]

Would anyone be able to break some of these rocks? I’m still very early in the game, and I don’t have a pickaxe yet lol but I kinda wanna build my settlement here

Anyone on

[subtle parrot]

Need to beat the boss of the biome starting with the mountains in order to unlock new feasts

[sturdy hull]

Would you be able to help

[steady seal]

I see, thanks. Hopefully that means it has better stats than the previous ones?

[subtle parrot]

It does

[steady seal]

Cool thanks

[sturdy hull]

I just need a few rocks broken

[subtle parrot]

With?

[sturdy hull]

@subtle parrot

[subtle parrot]

Just go kill the first boss

[sturdy hull]

Oh. But then won’t I be in the next biome?

[subtle parrot]

You can go there whenever you're ready, not necessary to rush there

But the pickaxe is unlocked with defeating the first boss, but it's pretty easy as far as bosses go

[worthy bear]

You wouldn't want a base in the next biome, too many enemies spawn

[sturdy hull]

You can stay in the current biome? That’s good then

[subtle parrot]

You can technically go to any biome whenever you want to, there's no linear progression to keep you on track and the world is pretty random as far as biome layouts, so you can come across some tricky areas to traverse occasionally

[buoyant peak]

#mods-screenshots

[sturdy hull]

Cuz I thought once you defeated the first boss you’d have to move to the next biome

[subtle parrot]

Nah, but you will get new raids available and night spawns in the meadows

[sturdy hull]

Oh ok

[compact heath]

The game gets harder the higher the biome you are in, natural progression, the game is also not on rails you have quite a lot of freedom, you alone choose where your main base is and if you want to make additional bases or not. If you kill a boss, you will get harder events and harder night spawns with some esceptions, I find it totally normal and okay if you want to take it super slow to ask for someone to come help you break some rocks with a character that has no big spoilery equipment and just a basic pickaxe. Totally valid, I would do it but am at work unfortunately. You set mostly your own goals in Valheim but there is a biome progression and killing biome bosses does unlock cool stuff.

[wind marsh]

i can help

[jade olive]

You don't have to rush in this game take your time and enjoy it. Get your levels up and when you can't go any further then go to next biome. This game is a blast but you can do what ever you like.

[earnest anvil]

Can anyone explain the difference between a dedicated and a normal server?

I wanna play with people, fairly new to the game but don't know whom to play with

[loud rapids]

A dedicated server is always running, so anybody with the password can connect to it whenever they want. A normal server runs for as long as the host is willing to play at a time

[little trench]

btw it can be a good idea to integrate the existing environment (such as those rocks) into your build. makes it look more interesting and sometimes more natural imo

[cold crater]

Is there a mod that removes the weird digging height
Its kinda annoying when trying to dig down and being limited by the generated terrain

[austere bear]

Skeletons from the Raise the Dead Staff can get hungry? Is there something you can feed them or are they just hungry for blood?

[cold crater]

They are always hungry nothing you need to do about it
-# not like they would have the organs to eat

[cedar lodge]

how you do the small text thing? always wondered and google doesnt help

[austere bear]

What if I wanted to do something about it? Is there something I could do?

[cold crater]

“-# “
-# dont forget the space

[cold crater]

Nope

[cedar lodge]

-#i tried and failed#-

[cold crater]

Only at the start of the line and dont forget the space

[cedar lodge]

-# oh right! tyvm

[cold crater]

-# btw if you ever wonder about some formatting you can just use the “copy text” function and you see how its done

[cold crater]

I tried to make a funny rickroll joke with link formatting/hiding and payed the price for it

[lilac coyote]

Good.

[little trench]

do mobs take dmg if im outside of the instance? for example, i throw poison bomb and exit the instance, will it still be ticking?

seems the poison effect is ticking

is it receiving the dmg tho?

[vapid warren]

i know dungeons are loaded in when you are outside at least, i dont know if it pauses while loading

cause i know you can killall outside the dungeon and take out those inside

[vapid warren]

i saw it in the automod log and was like "i bet this is a rickroll" and yes it was, jokes on you i like that song, but it is also not on topic at all lol

[cold crater]

I just wanted to show the formating 😂
But i yeah wrong channel

[vapid warren]

link formatting is blocked anyway cause its so easily exploited maliciously

[cold crater]

Yeah as it should

[cedar lodge]

yeh my bad too, didn't know about the formatting option, and asked on wrong channel as i saw someone using it

[lapis terrace]

https://tenor.com/view/paddling-gif-7623907

you wanted to do this

bah. even I forgot how to do it 😄

[cold crater]

Link needs to be in ()

[lapis terrace]

there we go

poof

secret is you can actually mouse over the link

[cold crater]

Other question
Did you set the timeout individually or just for every automod
-# asking for another server

[lapis terrace]

you can set it to custom yes

[cold crater]

Mmh interesting thank you ❤️

[civic tendon]

I was attacking the last fortress I needed and suddenly my Dyrnwyn is gone from my hotbar, it's not in any chests anywhere, I had it before I started attacking it, is this a bug or did I launch it with the catapult by accident, I can't find it anywhere

[echo sparrow]

accidental catapult launch highly suspicious--i've done same before

similar all the sudden "wait, where's my X item JUST in the hotbar" moment

[worthy bear]

I have a problem, I use map markers too much 😅. Most of them are for berries and mushroom. Is there a way to toggle on/off map markers?

[civic tendon]

I can't find it at all anymore, been an hour of looking for it already

[karmic hearth]

Right-click the icon on the right.

[civic tendon]

not sure what to do now, can't get another one..

[worthy bear]

ohhh I didn't know that, thanks!

[willow raft]

Worst case scenario you can spawn one in with dev commands.

[civic tendon]

I'm going back 1 last time to check but I might do that, I don't wanna use cheating of any kind but it either bugged out or I shot it into the lava or something, I really can't find it

actually maybe I can check on my steam replay

yea I launched it

how long does it take to despawn? it happened an hour and 17 mins ago

[cold crater]

I have genuinely no idea
But in personal experience it starts despawning after leaving the area/reloading the area

To prevent despawning you could spamm workbenches everywhere

[civic tendon]

yea it's gone I think I'll just use dev command, rather not but it's a 1 time only item and can't get it again

I saw the rough direction it launched it but it's not anywhere

[civic tendon]

I spawned it in but it's half broken and doesn't have the right stats anybody know why?

icon is different too

I'll just do the fragments I guess

[true steeple]

You might’ve spawned the old Dyrnwyn but I didn’t even know it was obtainable. I thought the new version replaced it.

[lilac coyote]

They did have two different IDs.
