[spiral laurel]

Hello I got thunderstore mod maneger but no mods are on when booting the game in the mod maneger. Pls help

[thorny copper]

did you launch it with the modded icon or the vanilla icon?

[spiral laurel]

modded

[thorny copper]

can you share a picture?

[spiral laurel]

do you mind hopping on a call and i can screen share?

[thorny copper]

i can after 2 hours

i am still at work 😆

[spiral laurel]

that works for me

appreciate the help!

[elfin cloak]

Idk if this is the right channel, but its the only one with mods. Anyone knows how to start using Farmheim? Like with all different crops and trees

[thorny copper]

https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Marlthon/FarmHeim/ you can read here

there is written information about breeding and types of vegetables and stuff

[elfin cloak]

Yeah just missing the key part how to get the crops, i read on the website of the mod author that animals can be bought from the trader haakon through cages. So i guess thats the same for the crops. Just want to know where to look for the trader, guess its just random like the other traders. Would be great to know in which biome and if he spawns close to the world spawn

[thorny copper]

probably some spawn in different biomes like turnips or carrots or onions

[tepid nova]

hello
i have just started valheim with mods
and i have one issue that i cant craft anything
and it looks like this:

anyone have same or similar issue and willing to help?

[autumn stratus]

If all of your mods originate from Thunderstore, you can use this mod to guide you in finding outdated mods or mods that haven't updated on/after the Hildir's Request game update. Like the mod description says, it's meant to be a guide and tool to help you out, not to find the problem for you.
https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Azumatt/ModAge/

[tepid nova]

will try this out

[autumn stratus]

If it turns out to not be a mod age issue, then it's likely an incompatibility that will be spamming in your BepInEx/LogOutput.log file.

It can be found at BepInEx/LogOutput.log. Drag the file into Discord directly. If you are using r2modman or Thunderstore Mod Manager open the folder with Settings > Browse profile folder and go to the BepInEx folder.

You'll be better helped by others here if you do the following:

🔹A description of the bug (intended result vs actual result).
🔹The steps to reproduce/repeat the bug.
🔹Your /Valheim/BepInEx/LogOutput.Log right after the bug happens.
🔸Using Thunderstore ModManager or r2modman? Go to Settings > Browse profile folder and go to the BepInEx folder.
🔸Manual install? In Steam, right-click on Valheim go to Manage > Browse local files and go to the BepInEx folder.

♦️If you are using either of the mod managers listed above, you can give us your mod profile! Helps us debug twice as fast if we have the ability to at the moment. Settings > Export profile as code

Also, if you get an error when exporting as code, that means your profile is too big. Export as a file anyways.

[tepid nova]

i think that wasnt outdated mod issue

018d655a-dcac-d3bc-224d-bf7ce0bba840
if you want check mods using

[autumn stratus]

Yes, you're using outdated mods.

[Error  : Unity Log] MissingMethodException: Method not found: int .Inventory.CountItems(string)

This error here means that the method has been moved, changed args, renamed, or deleted from the base game. This is indicative of using a mod that isn't updated for your current valheim game version.

looking at your list now, it's both of these.

[Info : BepInEx] Loading [Outsiders 1.5.5]
[Info : BepInEx] Loading [Crafting with Containers 1.0.14]

[tepid nova]

i will try removing crafting with containers and ll see what will happen

okay that was the issue i can craft now
thx for help

[thorny copper]

Anyone know a reason why thunderstore is not running mods, Tried running the modded launcher but it launches vanilla, same goes for if manual installation is tried it still runs vanilla even after adding all the dll files and everything

[autumn stratus]

Never heard of the issue. How are you launching the game?

[restive spruce]

that is weird, maybe they installed KG's mods and he didnt list Bepinex as a dependency or something stupid.

[stiff parcel]

General troubleshooting steps for common issues are in this guide: https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Client-Troubleshooting. If you don't see your issue here or can't fix it then we need more info like Azumatt asked ^

[thorny copper]

via steam for manual install and thunder store then modded

[restive spruce]

what do you mean by manual install? are you tainting your valheim folder with mods?
just use thunderstore launcher for everything, keep your steam folder clean, it does all the installing of mods for you.
if you do have to install a mod manually choose Settings>Profile>Import Local Mod

[thorny copper]

thunderstore didnt work so tried manual to see if that works

[restive spruce]

nah dont do that, you will regret it later, it's best to do things right from the start.

[thorny copper]

i am tryna troubleshoot brother

i can always reinstall if something breaks

[restive spruce]

ah I see, that is cool, but it's much easier for us to help troubleshoot thunderstore launcher than tossing mods at the valheim folder 😉

When you select Start Modded, does the Bepinex window open?

[thorny copper]

nope

its launches a vanilla one even when clicking modded

[stiff parcel]

(did you read the troubleshooting guide yet?)

[thorny copper]

technically it is not my issue but @spiral laurel has this problem

[restive spruce]

lol, it's a great troubleshooting guide, but getting people to read things not in a chat is easier said than done 😄

[thorny copper]

i tried a couple to things to help him but no results so far

[restive spruce]

If at a loss I will delete my valheim folder, verify the install with steam and let it reinstall.
I then create a new profile in Thunderstore Launcher, download a few mods and test.

the issue sounds like Bepinex isnt installed in Thunderstore Launcher, or it's disabled from starting in the doorstop config

[stiff parcel]

That's why I asked if they read it

[restive spruce]

offtopic, but I was just using some of your mods last night on my new playthrough, very cool! awesome work!

[ionic moat]

hey anyone know if you can ride the farmheim horses?

[opal tree]

I'm guessing this is the new incarnation of game-mod-discussion?

[unique spade]

This is where to come to vent about the moderators 😜

[ionic moat]

Hey, ive started using Hugos armory and ever since downloading it and its dependencies i cannot create a new character, does anyone know a solution?

the only other player model changing mod i can see is blacksmiths_tools i dont know if that would have something to do with it

[unkempt acorn]

is there any way to get item drawers to work with craft from containers?

[autumn stratus]

AzuCraftyBoxes works with KGValheim's ItemDrawers.

[unkempt acorn]

ty

[unkempt acorn]

does that mod also work for normal chest as well?

[autumn stratus]

Yes

[storm bridge]

i cant change hair skin tone etc when creating characters

[restive spruce]

do you mean the mod "character edit button"? I am pretty sure it no longer works due to the button placement being changed in the game. it requires updated by the author.

[storm bridge]

i just disabled all the mods one by one and it was caused by betterui

[restive spruce]

ah, yeah use MinimalUI by azumatt, it's pretty cool

[storm bridge]

should i use auga ?

[stiff parcel]

Auga is broken right now pending an update for the latest game version

[junior monolith]

Anyone have a good guide to installing/placing mods manually? I'm on macOS Valheim, so I doubt typical modmanager will work

[opal tree]

https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/ComfyMods/Pseudonym/

[digital umbra]

is thunderstore better than r2modman? not in terms of ui but in any other aspects?

[opal tree]

r2modman is the open-source ad-free version of Thunderstore

[dense mesa]

There are several Youtube videos that show how to install Valheim mods. Basically it's just a matter of downloading the Valheim BepInEx mod from thunderstore.io and following it's installation instructions carefully. You may have to read through it a time or two but once you get the process, it's pretty simple.

Then find another mod or two that you like and do the same for them.

[snow yarrow]

Got the VHVR mod, is there a way to use secondary attack and open the large map?

[jagged nimbus]

We only got one channel for modding now?
@hidden dagger plz fix

[hidden dagger]

what else you need? 🤔

[jagged nimbus]

Mod discussion, mod issues and mod screenshots like before and maybe make it its own category?
Right now it's mixed with vanilla stuff and that might not be ideal?

It gets new games first, as well as support for mods larger than 2GBs

[unkempt acorn]

is there a mod to where you dont have to wait to get loot after you kill something

[deep bolt]

I spent more time coming up with the mod description than the mod itself btw :3

[unkempt acorn]

thanks

[timber schooner]

does anyone know about the valheim plus not being compatable for a dedicated server my friend cant get it working

Hi and good Afternoon Fellow Valheimers / modders...........

i need your help me and a friend are trying to get into the same dedicated server " his " but for some reason its saying the version of valheim plus is not compatible and i dont no what else to do as thats the most upto date valheim plus on the thunderstore please anyone out there who can help me ??????

[stiff parcel]

Checks out lol

[paper drift]

my game crashes

did i install it wrong

[autumn stratus]

unstripped_corlib shouldn't even be there. Looks like you might have an older version of BepInEx installed

[paper drift]

is it better to use vortex

[autumn stratus]

No, it's better to use r2modman/Thunderstore Mod Manager.

Vortex for Valheim is terrible

[paper drift]

With thunderstore does it automatically download upto date bepinex or do i have to do it

[autumn stratus]

Automatically does it for your profile. Updating mods etc...is as easy as clicking the button to update (unless the author gives specific instructions on things in the changelog)

[paper drift]

Thanks 😄

[cerulean pasture]

Alright... I've never been good at figuring out mod installations, so sorry if this is a basic problem. I haven't been able to enjoy Valheim basically since I purchased it because the blurriness hurts my eyes. I recently saw this and think it could help: https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/736?tab=description

I tried Vortex, read the above convo when I checked here and swapped out for Thunderstore's mod manager. It doesn't look like I've got a thing working: F1 doesn't open a config menu in-game, and starting the game doesn't create a config file anywhere for the custom depth of field mod. Here are my Valheim folders, in case that can help identify my problem.

[sacred orchid]

So R2modman/thunderstore modmmanager use a virtualized setup (profiles).

Which means that your actual Valheim install will not have any of the mod files or configs there.

In R2 on the left if you hit settings, then on the location tab, browse profile. That will show you the Bepinex that actually is used when launching that profile.

Your mods should go in there (they do automatically if downloaded from thunderstore).

For the F1 configs you need one of the configuration manager Azu's is a good one if you want https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Azumatt/Official_BepInEx_ConfigurationManager/

[cerulean pasture]

Okay, I found the actual mod folder and I'd already installed the config mod. Now, when I open the R2 BepInEx\plugins folder, I see the configuration mod still inside it's own folder. Is that okay, or should I drag the ConfigurationManager.dll out of its subfolders and back into the plugins folder?

[sacred orchid]

That's fine, sub folders are loaded too

[cerulean pasture]

Seems I had it installed fine, but I'm thinking the manually installed ones left over from Vortex/myself in the game's standard folder may have been conflicting. Also, I was opening the game via Steam, not R2.

[sacred orchid]

You got to launch via R2, top right

[cerulean pasture]

Yeah, I mentioned it because I saw the button this last time. 🙂 Thanks for the help. It seems to be working flawlessly now.

[sacred orchid]

Glad it's working 🙂

[lyric knot]

having an issue with downloading stuff

[autumn stratus]

Give it about 15 minutes. Reboot the mod manager and attempt again. It happens from time to time.

[lyric knot]

now im having a diff issue

when i hit start the game wont start

[autumn stratus]

Please dm me your log file. It can be found at BepInEx/LogOutput.log. Drag the file into Discord directly. If you are using r2modman or Thunderstore Mod Manager open the folder with Settings > Browse profile folder and go to the BepInEx folder.

You'll be better helped by others here if you do the following:

🔹A description of the bug (intended result vs actual result).
🔹The steps to reproduce/repeat the bug.

♦️If you are using either of the mod managers listed above, you can give us your mod profile! Helps us debug twice as fast if we have the ability to at the moment. Settings > Export profile as code

Also, if you get an error when exporting as code, that means your profile is too big. Export as a file anyways.

[woven sequoia]

Can anyone help me (an idiot) figure out how to use Thunderstore on my dedicated gportal server.

I have a server through gportal and we use Valheim+ for some tweaks but we want to add some more mods through Thunderstore but when I launch through Thunder, I cant get on my server. Just boots me back to title screen.

[woven sequoia]

So I copied the the config mod files from Thunder and pasted them into my Valheim folder and now when I load my game from my server I get this...

And I cant move or do anything

[hybrid cairn]

Fwiw they aren’t actually virtualised - they still install winhttp.dll to the game directory. The manager passes launch args to the game to tell doorstop (winhttp) to load mods from the profile folder instead

[autumn stratus]

Auga doesn't work on current game version...and BetterUI isn't really compatible with it anyways.

Auga restructures a lot of the UI elements.

One of the most incompatible mods to exist even when it works.

[dense mesa]

Did you get your problems fixed? No one seems to have responded to your very interesting post there.

[south brook]

Does anyone understand the dragonriders mod?

My dragon doesn't fly up, I don't know if it's because it hasn't fully grown

[woven sequoia]

No I did not. I ended up having to delete all the Valheim files, uninstall, reinstall, and then it was good. Still no Thunderstone mods but at least my game isn't screwed.

[dense mesa]

So progress. That's good. The thunderstore.io mods are easy to use, if you follow a couple easy steps. First, D/L and learn to use the r2modman program. Open it up, get in there and explore it's features for a few minutes until you start to understand how it works.

When you are comfortable with using it to install mods, install them only a few at a time and test the game with them before going on and installing more. If you install a whole bunch of mods at once, and one or another of them introduces weird errors, is much easier to find and fix them when you only have to look through a few of them for the bad mod(s).

Lastly, stick to only installing mods that have been updated withn the last 3 or 4 months or so. Those are currently supported for the latest game patch and likely to cause a lot fewer problems than out of date mods will. 🙂

[torn elbow]

Does anyone know how to get the MinimalUi hotbar (vertically stacked) to look like the Vanilla hotbar (horizontally stacked)? If it's possible.

[autumn stratus]

Hotbar Per Row setting

OOOH

[torn elbow]

Thank you friend

[paper fossil]

I have a mod issue. I have been using upgrade world/infinity hammer and 36 other mods for the server. Do or Die has been part of the pack since we started with mods. A few weeks ago I 'reloaded locations' to engage the 'traders' from DoD. That wasnt enough so I wanted to see the traders in already explored locations so I initiated 'genloc' which is when everything turned to 'pot'. The world file was then corrupted and still is. The positive points being: I am able to access the world, copy all exising builds to 'planbuild', build structures, farm, cook. The negative is: Unable to interact/kill or mine, all attack values are negative values, not positive, the instances are 3 times their correct value in most areas. Main town is usually 16k, currently 56k, sound is also effected (guess that's related to the instances), the world file has ballooned from 78mb to 151mb after the genloc/hammer_locations reset. I have dialled back the spawn rate on all of the additional wildlife to ease the instances. Any help appreciated!

[dense mesa]

I'm sure you've already thought of these things but I'll suggest them just in case.

Can you roll back your world with an earlier backup copy from before you ran the Genloc command?

You can try reseting all the zones in the world with the zones_reset command from UpgradeWorld and see if that fixes the world.

You can recreate a fresh copy of the world from it's seed which you can get by using the 'seed' command. And just bring back in your structures with PlanBuild.

I hope some of that might help. 🙂

[paper fossil]

Thanks Jaga, I have a earlier copy of the world which I can use. Its from November which is ok. I will try the zones reset with upgrade world. Have not tried that one. The main issue now, is the no interaction with the wildlife. It is also happening on my local folder so must be a bit more to it. I did go into the Upgrade world YAML file for locations and spawns where I added a location and reduced spawn rates of greydwalf. Not sure if that can cause an issue but expect it should not

[lyric knot]

is there a mod that makes sprinting out of combat consume no stamina

[wooden parcel]

you can outrun most enemies by walking

I press Q to auto walk, wait for some stamina to regen, and then sprint

you shouldn't sprint mid combat because that way you can't dodge roll, block nor attack

[plucky atlas]

i have portal marker and target portal and suddenly i cant go through the portal and choose another one i've made. is anyone else having this issue? it was working fine last night

[jagged nimbus]

Did permission on portal change?
Although I think you can still portal through them even if they're set to private if you find them?

[plucky atlas]

nope 😄 we both have the same settings. it seems to have worked itself out randomly now i actually asked for help haha always the way

[jagged nimbus]

You scared the portal into submission.

[tepid nova]

i have a problem with my modded valheim that i dont see some of the mods that i am using
tried looking into logs, youtube, guides and other sites with possible help
can someone help me find problem with my pack?
018d73f3-1744-08a5-2f5b-aa1de53c85fc

also i have a question didnt try but can i play modded valheim with friends?

[restive spruce]

the version of valheim plus you are using is broken, use Grantaphers version.
also I would probably remove magicheim as that one I dont think gets updates.

[tepid nova]

should i delete that valheim plus or download one from grantaphers and run both of them

[restive spruce]

replace your current with that one, delete and download or download and replace, what ever gets you to the finish line.

[raw glen]

Any list of current out of date mods or am I gonna have to go through one by one to get rid of this "some text" console thing?

[unkempt acorn]

i get the notification that "the forest is moving" but nothing spawns, is there a way to know if a mod is messing with it and if so how do i fix it?

[stiff parcel]

If you have one that extends the workbench range at all it can block spawns, or if your base is just very large and the raid triggered near the center

[unkempt acorn]

i have mods like item drawers and craft from containers, would that mess with it?

[vivid grotto]

Why everytime when I try to launch my game trough thunderstore with any mods it just shows me this and the does nothing?

[stiff parcel]

Did you ever use vortex or manually install mods? You might have an old bepinex installed

[stiff parcel]

I wouldn't think so, but it's possible

why does this channel have slowmode, does every channel have slowmode now?

[unkempt acorn]

i also have CreatureLevelAndLootControl, would that be the issue?

[stiff parcel]

Not sure since I don't use that mod

[vivid grotto]

Seems like I fixed it?, but thanks anyway

Okay, I did not fix it. It launches but it is always vanilla?

[waxen ferry]

Anyone use FirstPersonMode from Azumatt? I am wondering if conflicts with Valeheim_plus, even if Plus' firstperson mode section is disabled. When I try to toggle first person mode, it only flashes it, doesn't stay

They do conflict, known issue

[versed flame]

anyone know the current game version

[opal tree]

v0.217.38

[sour plover]

So I am downloading the mod JTV / Journey To Valhalla and three of the required mods to go with it don't have a .dll file to go with them and I don't know where to find them or if they are needed? The mods are neurodr0me's RRRNpcs , RRRMonsters , and Fantu-PopVillages. FantuPop has a config file with several JSON files inside but no .dll

[stiff parcel]

That modpack was deprecated, please don't use deprecated modpacks and mods

[sour plover]

Sorry but I don't know what that means or the issues with it. Could you elaborate?

[stiff parcel]

It's not suppored anymore, broken

This one is working https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/JewelHeim/Road_To_Muspelheim_and_Niflheim/

[sour plover]

oh ok thanks, is that modpack similar to JTV modpack?

[stiff parcel]

It's the closest one out there that I know about

[sour plover]

Ok, thanks.

[zealous lichen]

Hey - I've tried to search around for this answer but I'm seeing conflicting information and was hoping to get some knowledge. I want to rent a crossplay server and play on PC/have friend play on Xbox. We're used to playing modless but thought it would be cool to do a nomap server and add a mod that allows the world map to be viewed at the cartography table strictly.

So my question is if anyone knows if this would work at intended for the Xbox players? The way I understand it is - mods should work for Xbox players so long as they do not add assets. Seeing as this is essentially changing the functionality of the cartography table I was hopeful that this was a possibility.

Any insights or advice is greatly appreciated regarding getting this to work!

[stiff parcel]

There are not many server side mods, but this list can help you find some. Also has compatible client side mods pc users can have without breaking the game https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Xbox-Compatible-Mods

[zealous lichen]

Appreciate the list. Not very extensive I see. Is there a simple way to determine if a mod would be considered server-side only? Or would I just have to install the mod and see if the mod is functioning as intended?

[stiff parcel]

On thunderstore authors can add the client-side and server-side tags, if they have both that implies the mod needs to be on the client to work. It sometimes says in the readme how it needs to be installed.

[zealous lichen]

Right on, I see what you mean on thunderstore. Unfortunately this author hasn't included those tags so I'll have to wait and see if anyone with more knowledge out this particular mod sees this.

The mod title in question is "CartographyTableMapRestrictions By Aedenthorn" and is dependant on the mod "BepInExPack Valheim"

[stiff parcel]

That one is client side to work properly, so Xbox players can't use it

[zealous lichen]

Thank you Oriana. Theoretically if we did a nomap game with the mod installed then - presumably only PC players could look at the cartography map then. Could create a unique RP where the certain "elders" or "sages" are able to understand / read the land or something. I'll have to think about that one

[zenith radish]

I have a question, if i remove a mod what happens to the structures that are currently placed in my world from that mod? I want to remove valheim raft but a theoretical answer works. :P the game takes 10gb of memory so i assume i have to remove mods to lower it, nothing else seems to work. but any help is appreciated. thanks

[drowsy dock]

If you remove a mod say one that gives you new roof pieces and the building itself is vanilla. The house will stay but the roof pieces will disappear.

And yes. Certain mods can increase your gb quite a bit.

[zenith radish]

do you know any specifically that increase a lot?

[drowsy dock]

https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/billw2012/BetterContinents/

This one I know for sure.

Not exactly sure how much raft uses

[zenith radish]

i mean i have a lot of mods

[drowsy dock]

I know on our server we have raft as well as 37 others and we are only using 3 gb

[zenith radish]

well taskmanager says mine is using 10gb constantly .-. so i might need to lighten the load a bit

[drowsy dock]

How many are you running, just wondering.

Is this on a personal server or a host?

[zenith radish]

about 70, and personal host

[drowsy dock]

Ahh

What I would do is process of elimination. Turn 5 off restart. Keep doing it till you see a drop.

[zenith radish]

well i prefer to not as im 190 days in on the world. but ill see which ones i can remove

[drowsy dock]

Make a backup?

I don't see any odd ones in that list. It could be just the fact that you're using 70

[zenith radish]

yeah could be i guess.

[drowsy dock]

Is it conflicting with your gameplay??

[zenith radish]

im playing constantly at 90-95% memory which means if i play for more than 1 hour without unloading unused assets it starts lagging.

[drowsy dock]

You are playing on the unit that is hosting the game or do you log into it on another pc?

[zenith radish]

Im hosting.

[drowsy dock]

Ohh okay so you are running the mods on your personal PC and others login via steam?

[zenith radish]

well i run it through r2modman then press host yes. and they join via join code

Is it common to lag in places where you have a lot of buildings aswell? i dont see why it lowers fps. just badly optimized?

[drowsy dock]

If you press F2 in said area you can see how many instances you have. If it's in the 6,000-10,000 range then yes. That will cause lag in that area

Your FPS will drop

[zenith radish]

well its above that.... Thanks for the info.. Ill try to remove some mods. cheers!

[drowsy dock]

You're welcome.

Hope I helped a bit.

[dusk sinew]

Hey guys!!... does anybody know how can we reset the resources? (mod or admin way) Thank you.

im currently experiencing a compatibility bug between two mods: Seasons By Shudnal and some other mod || ~~ Foraging by Smoothbrain.
when i forage, the seasons mod i think is overwriting what drops the foraging skill is trying to spawn.
Is any1 else experiencing this?

i logged my tests in the respective mods issues github pages...
Smoothbrains: github.com/blaxxun-boop/Foraging/issues/7
Shudnals: github.com/shudnal/Seasons/issues/4
~~ ||
nvm some other mod mustve been fudging my bushes drop table just gotta find it now....

[unkempt acorn]

How do you add mods to a server, tried just the dll but it's still not working

[restive spruce]

do you use a server host or host yourself?

[unkempt acorn]

nitrado

[restive spruce]

alright, it's basically the same way you setup gportal servers, using an FTP browser, tossing the dll files into the plugins folder.
https://youtu.be/h2t9cSFidt0?si=zTJtHV_gzwHiz3U3

[unkempt acorn]

Item drawers and jotunn/jotunn mods isn't working on the server

[rancid stratus]

Ok the list of mods that are off are:

Item Drawers; OdinArchitect; PlanBuild; SeedTotem; ValheimRAFT; Eternal_Fire; HoneyPlus; BoneAppetit; CookingAdditions; MushroomPlus; MajesticChickens; Wagon; CraftyCartsRemake; and MyDirtyHoe

Those are the apps that use Jotun or otherwise made the game fail to let me on the server. Now we have a final list

[jagged nimbus]

My mods don't use Jotunn.
MajesticChickens, Wagon.

[boreal canopy]

Can’t get farm grid mod to work on steam deck, i have it installed, yet no grid pops when i start to plant, should i do something in config maybe?

[iron hull]

This usually means the server isn't loading any mods, see https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Server-Troubleshooting

Even if you have other mods and BepInEx at your server, doesn't mean the mods are actually loading. Valheim is mostly client authotive and thus the server isn't doing much

[eternal crag]

what is the meaning of this?

[autumn stratus]

probably a mod calling unpatch all on shutdown.
you should remove whatever mod does this, since it makes the game crash on shutdown, instead of shutting down gracefully, which can potentially lead to corrupted save files.
if you share your bepinex log, people in here can probably help you find the culprit.
it's usually multicraft or better archery.

[stiff parcel]

I thought better archery changed the method they were calling to the UnpatchAll(modname), that prevented unpatching other mods 🤔 I'll have to check those both again

Okay check them, Better Archery is still calling Unpatchall(null) which I think does all mods, so that would cause issues. But the new multicraft fixed theirs so that mod should be fine.

[autumn stratus]

I see.

Multicraft used to call it. Didn't notice the new "remake" fixed it.

[steep warren]

Hi guys! Does anybody know how to fix this?

console commands not working

[stiff parcel]

Debugging guide for that is here: https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Client-Troubleshooting#missingfieldexception-field-terminalm_input-not-found

[steep warren]

Thanks a lot!

[formal cobalt]

Anyone ever had an issue with infinity hammer where you can't place most trees and vegetation items? I tried disabling all crafting related mods, no dice. When I go to place it, the temp item that you move around to place isn't there, and if you click, your guy just makes the hammer motion and nothing happens.

[crude fern]

So question... returning Valheim player from Valheim plus days. But after talking to Bluefang support, Valheim Plus is no longer a thing?? Anyone know what can be used now for QOL changes and such going forward on a paid dedi server?
I was suggested with https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/denikson/BepInExPack_Valheim/.

though not sure if that's acceptable orworth it?

[stiff parcel]

The official Valheim Plus mod can't be updated anymore since their main dev disappeared, but the project is still being supported under another posting now. The link you shared is the BepInEx pack which you need to install to use mods, but it is not a mod itself, just the loader.

https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Grantapher/ValheimPlus_Grantapher_Temporary/
Or replace it with smaller mods if you only really needed a few features https://github.com/AzumattDev/Valheim-Plus-Replacements

[crude fern]

Well that doesn't help me. I'm trying to find something similar to V+ where I can manipulate a few lines of code (that's already in place) rather than downloading a bunch of mods

[stiff parcel]

The first link I shared is the new Valheim Plus upload

[crude fern]

Will it show as "valheim Plus" on the main screen when starting up the game? Or how will I know it's properly downloaded and such?

[stiff parcel]

I think so, if you have questions about V+ you can get better help in their discord too. Links are on the mod page

[formal cobalt]

I was also a fan of V+, but I finally gave up on it simply because it seemed like support could end at any time. If you use a bunch of replacement mods, it's fairly easy to plow through their config files if you use the Thunderstore mod manager, which you should anyway. You can browse through each config file from the mod manager, and open it with a simple UI right there - makes changing several config files less of a headache.

That being said, I do think V+ was more convenient, but if you decide to go the many-mods route, I thought I'd mention this for ya.

[void harness]

Loved Valheim Plus, sucks having to have 8 diff mods now to do what V+ did. I still haven't found a new mod to get rid of weather damage to buildings like V+ had. 😦

[opal tree]

https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Azumatt/AzuWearNTearPatches/

https://github.com/AzumattDev/Valheim-Plus-Replacements

[formal cobalt]

Yeah, it's a bit annoying, but I've found that (a) a lot of the individual mods wind up being more powerful, for example infinity hammer is superior to the advanced building mode in V+ and (b) it's not that bad going through the configs in the thunderstore mode. Honestly the config files become like section headings in the V+ config. Everything is still in one place.

[jagged nimbus]

With individual mods you don't risk of it taking your save, world as hostage.
With individual mods you can update as they release and not wait months.

[stiff parcel]

Any mod maker at any time could quit and leave the mod abandoned, doesn't matter how small the mod is. Using a mod that breaks your game or makes you lose stuff by removing it is a risk people take by installing it.

[void harness]

Used V+ for couple y ears, never had any issues with a save or anything else.

I'd still be using V+ except for one thing, I won't play without SSC and they don't work together. As a builder tho, I hate weather damage.

[jagged nimbus]

There's always ways around it but best is to just respect the authors wishes.

[void harness]

lol, sorry guys, wrong discord haha

[placid jetty]

hello guys, can someone help me
i transfered from xbox game pass to steam and i want to swap the valheim game directory to the steam one

and this message displays

or am i missing someting

its this one right? or am i wrong

im using the thunderstore client btw forgot to say

[stiff parcel]

If you exit all the way back to game selection in the mod manager it should let you swap for steam from gamepass when you select the game again

[placid jetty]

damn it worked

i forgot theres a thing where u need to select game pass or steam

i have played valheim like a year ago

it worked tho thank u so much

[covert wolf]

hi y'all i got a problem with my mods when i'm launching my game, Azu Autostore is having some kind of "invalid mapping", a moderator of the modded server already told me to delete it's own ".yml" file but it didn't change a thing, does someone have seen that error and got a solution?

[autumn stratus]

FYI for future, I responded to this user's question in my discord.

[placid jetty]

It displays for my gf, when she tries to join my server

Out valheim versions are the same and all mod versions are also the same

[stiff parcel]

A lot of the screen is cut off, are there messages in the top left and bottom right? They indicate mods loaded up. It's possible the mods didn't start at all

[formal cobalt]

Have you tried using the thunderstore mod manager, and having one of you share a profile for the other?

[pallid spade]

hey all. I installed some mods Locally on my PC today as we neared the end of our playthrough

however, now I cannot get connected to our dedicated server (which is unmodded but has Bepinex support)

I have done the verify game files. I have uninstalled all the mods and uninstalled R2modman. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game 2x now

how do I do a totally clean install of Valheim on PC/Steam? I just want to finish the dedicated game with my friend tonight

my version number says 0217.38 (n-20)

[rich zinc]

Like i said, quick 3 step guide in the pins for how to do this in #valheim-help

[pallid spade]

thank you, but that isn't working for me

I installed Journey to Valhalla mod and then deleted it, never actually ran the game

[autumn stratus]

[stiff parcel]

Looks like vanilla, are there mods on the server you're trying to join?

[pallid spade]

I no longer have R2modman or Bepinex on my computer

the server is vanilla

[autumn stratus]

Then I would direct this help outside of tthe modding channel

[pallid spade]

omg they told me to come here from valheim help

[stiff parcel]

I don't mind trying to lend a hand, you need to double check the server version. I'm assuming it should be 217.38 right? If you could connect to it before

[pallid spade]

why does my local version stilll say 217.38 (n-20)

is that normal

[stiff parcel]

That's expected, yeah

[pallid spade]

me and the server are both 217.38

[stiff parcel]

And you never installed mods on the server or did you recently try to remove them?

[autumn stratus]

Then I guess we shall help.

Please pass us the Player.log file and Server log

[pallid spade]

never installed mods on server

[stiff parcel]

Next step is getting that server log file ^

[pallid spade]

okay thank you

[pallid spade]

how do I send you these logs?

[autumn stratus]

DM, if you can't here

[formal cobalt]

I feel like 90% of these problems would be solved by thunderstore mod manager + sharing profiles 🤣

[pallid spade]

I was using R2modman. I didn't have any problems until I installed Journey to Valhalla (and Fantasy Armoury) today

I have uninstalled but I still get incompatible version

[formal cobalt]

Word. I could be wrong, sounds like maybe that mod has an issue. I have run a lot of servers with a lot of people and have never had an issue since I started just doing everything by profile. Maybe I've just been lucky, who knows

[pallid spade]

MistBeGone by Azumatt and Raft were working great earlier today

Journey to Valhalla was deprecated. my mistake

[stiff parcel]

Journey to Valhalla modpack is deprecated and not working

[pallid spade]

agreed. now how do I play Valheim again

[stiff parcel]

I thought Azumatt was helping with your log?

[pallid spade]

he has the information. I'll try to be patient. I was all ready to play Valheim Raft 😦

[autumn stratus]

Yep, seems the server you're attempting to connect to has mods. Despite what you've mentioned.

[pallid spade]

it has Bepinex support

[autumn stratus]

[Warning:Jotunn.Utils.ModCompatibility] Client loaded additional mod: ValheimRAFT

[pallid spade]

but I uninstalled all the mods

uninstalled the game, deleted folder. reinstalled

[autumn stratus]

It would seem not.

This is kicking you from the server. The server is modded.

[stiff parcel]

If you toggle off bepinex on the server that should turn off all mods, but deleing all your bepinex\plugins and patchers on the server will also fix it. Then you need to restart the server again.

[pallid spade]

okay, I had no issues at all until today when I installed local mods

it seems impossible to do a clean install

[autumn stratus]

Yes, installing ValheimRAFT and FantasyArmory is what is kicking you. Otherwise, Jotunn on the server wouldn't kick you.

Even if you were a vanilla client.

[pallid spade]

I didn't install mods on the server, it's hosted by Valhost

[autumn stratus]

In the logs you gave me, the server is loading Jotunn. Which means that mod is installed, BepInEx is running...and you will find that inside of the BepInEx/plugins folder on the server.

[stiff parcel]

Valhost lets you install mods from their site right? There's probably a way to remove them from there 🤔

[autumn stratus]

If not, manually remove them via FTP to the server.

@ripe fossil Would you mind lending a small hand here?

[pallid spade]

I guess I'll go find an FTP client then

[autumn stratus]

I mean, there are literal toggles in the UI for Valhost. Try clicking default to reset and reboot the server.

Can even filter based on what is enabled.

[pallid spade]

there are no mods enabled on my server

[autumn stratus]

Then please give current log files.

and make sure to reboot the server.

[pallid spade]

reboot and then send you log again? is that ok? I'm sorry I messed with mods, I'll never do it again lol

[autumn stratus]

Yes, that is fine. Modding for the game is really easy. Especially with hosts like Valhost.

[restive spruce]

I too like them as a hosting service, never seen one actually care as much about it's users as the owner of that service.

[pallid spade]

yeah we used indifferent broccoli for 2 weeks and they were unreliable

[autumn stratus]

Yeah, server is still modded.

Does any one know if theres an alternative to this mod? It was one of my favourites and it seems its RIP. I found the dev is working on a V2 but only has 2 classes, Is there anything out there that will let people take the roll as a healer etc

Ahh never mind, I just discovered it was actually valheim legends which seems up to date 😄

[gaunt fern]

Hi I havent played in a long time, logged in just now and everytime i try to put clothes on or hold a weapon it says the gods reject you and set me on fire lol what have i missed and how to i play. I play with some mods like extra animals, etc

[gaunt thistle]

Hello can anyone help me with this? im using Vortex launcher and i got this error everytime i try to play.

[stiff parcel]

Vortex installs broken packages, you can still use it if you fix it, but if you don't mind switching to thunderstore they have a better mod manager. This is the working bepinex pack for valheim: https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/denikson/BepInExPack_Valheim/. And I recommend this mod manager if you want to switch: https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/ebkr/r2modman/

[gaunt thistle]

thank you

still not working im using r2modman

[deep bolt]

Remove crafting with containers

And whatever is adding fish labs

[autumn stratus]

FishLabs is a base game assembly. The mod is old and doesn’t reference it or causes the base game to throw errors

[deep bolt]

So still craft from containers?

[autumn stratus]

Yes

Craft With Containers is like 2 years old last I checked. People never seem to check the last updated date.

[pearl void]

Any one know why character server saves doesnt seem to be saving characters? Its asks to make a new one everytime

[pearl void]

Will do the job though, its updated 😄

[stiff parcel]

There are some mods that can cause the game to shut down incorrectly and the save won't complete. Or might be an issue with the configs. You can test for the first issue by hitting "logout" rather than quit to exit to the main menu first when shutting down the game, this would prevent other mods from interfering with the save process. If that doesn't work may be the second issue or another I'm not familiar with.

[pearl void]

Yeah I aint sure, I only had this and dependency saved, so couldnt of been conflicts. It might be related to my serverhost, either way opted out of installing it, appreciate the tips though

[pearl void]

What would cause debugmode not to work, Im set as admin and can use devcommands but debugmode seems to have vanished? Enabling this doesnt help either

[dense mesa]

What's the response when you type 'debugmode' in the console? How, exactly do you determine that it's not working?

[pearl void]

And ofc, fly doesnt work which is what im primarly using to figure out if its working

[dense mesa]

Ok, what do you get when you type in "devcommands"?

[dense mesa]

So, when you type in "fly", instead of usin the "z" key, it says 'not valid' ?

[pearl void]

Same story, not valid

[dense mesa]

That's very odd. I've never heard of a mod disabling debugmode while it allows devcommands before.

That sure seems to be what's happening. If so, you'll needt do the trouble shooting to find which one's doing it.

Unless somone else here has experience with it for you.

[pearl void]

I honestly have no clue, I have a mod list if it helps, but im so at a loss here

Ive tried to google the problem etc, and no one has a solution and most problems seem to be fixed by installing devcommands, which obviously is installed

[dense mesa]

You can start your trouble shooting the mods with this mod: https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Azumatt/ModAge/

[pearl void]

Ill try it for sure, cuz this is driving me mad. Need debug mode to setup market mod etc haha

[dense mesa]

And you are using Jere Kuusela's 'ServerDevcommands' mod to allow devcommands, after putting your Steam64 ID (the one with 17 numeric digits) in the adminlist.txt file next to your worlds_local folder, right?

[pearl void]

Yep! Thats the one im using

And yes, my steam ID is set in adminlist.txt

[dense mesa]

Then, my best guess would be that one of your other mods is interfering with it and causing the problem. Sadly, I have no idea which mod could do that.

[pearl void]

Yeah when I made the list I triple checked the dates of mods and filtered most my chosen mods by most recent mods updated etc

[dense mesa]

Your playerlog file might show an error that could provide a clue. It's in your BepInEx folder, IIRC. Wait... No. it's along side your adminlist.txt file. Sorry.

[pearl void]

Well... I dont know what fixed it, but I reinstalled Valheims files on my dedicated server, and generated a new world and the command suddenly works...

What's the best place to ask for help with dissecting Bepinex errors? Having an issue with a different game but their official discord forbids mod discussion.

[lethal folio]

hey guys! I installed few mods and I am having no issues playing in singleplayer world with the mods installed but when I join my dedicated server it says "incompatible version". This is a server that I run on my pc using this .bat file so my friends can join anytime when im offline. So will these mods not work on these dedicated servers?

oh yea im also playing on pc xbox game pass if it matters

[lethal folio]

ok i figured it out its working now

Best place would be one of the modding discords where it's easier to get your log file and troubleshoot, but this is the best channel in this discord for getting mod help. Please share the exact issue you are encountering with as much detail as possible. If you did not get the bepinex pack from thunderstore then replace your current bepinex installation with this first to see if that helps: https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/denikson/BepInExPack_Valheim/.

You could try maybe

im trying to run CLLC and farming, both a mod by smoothbrain. but the console says that it cant load it due to valheim plus. any fix for that?

Far as I was aware Valheim+ was discontinued. Its not that great, Azumat has a lot of mods that do similiar things and flexibility in ini configs

i got the valheim+ by Grantapher Temporary so its up to date. but ill look at azumat. valheim+ was just easy cause its a whole package

[lethal yoke]

Was happening in Lethal Company. Mentioned it in the Bepinex discord and no one replied. This is what I sent last night-
My game keeps crashing at random moments. The first two times I had my screen go black then Lethal, Steam, and Discord all crashed simultaneously. I got a driver timeout notification from AMD both times so I updated my display driver and also changed my power settings to be more performance focused.
Game worked for a round or two then had a different crash. All three programs stayed up, but I got kicked to the main menu of Lethal Company (still said More Company). Closed and relaunched. Tried to join but Shift+Tab did nothing. Closed and relaunched again and things seemed normal.
Got through a full round with only one or two lag hiccups and thought I was good. Next round I got struck by lightning while inside the ship. Viewing a teammate started and like a second later, Lethal and Discord crashed. Steam is still open but it's a black window. I have two monitors. Lethal was on the main monitor. The desktop is visible but I can't interact with it and my cursor is invisible when I go to it. Second monitor is perfectly fine and functional.
Bepinex was still running so I screenshotted the last lines before the crash and also copied everything in the window into a Notepad file. Poked around online for what to do with the info I had and ended up in this discord.
Idk what to do. I don't have this issue with any other programs. Thought it was something with my PC, but geek squad found nothing wrong and said it must've been a mod issue. But none of the people I play with (who run the same mods) have had any problems.

Active mods are BepinExPack, MoreCompany, YippeeMod, LateCompany, More_Emotes, NeedyCats, ShipLoot, Runtime_Netcode_Patcher, HookGenPatcher, LethalLib, PushCompany, and LethalThings

So Bepinex was still up cause I guess the window for Lethal had vanished but the game still showed as running. I had to use Task Manager to kill it. As soon as I did, the Bepin window closed and my main monitor went back to normal. Glad I waited to do that so I could have that log saved.

Also I keep the blue light filter on my PC active all the time. Every time there's a crash, the Night Light feature is visually disabled but it says it's on in system settings. If I disable and re-enable it, it comes back.

Running AzuAntiCheat and I redownloaded the game in the process of trying to connect

[dense mesa]

Hmmm... That Anti-Cheat mod lets any one with admin access through regardless of whether they have all the required mods or have any 'banned' mods. Sounds like that's the problem.

[soft torrent]

That's what we're thinking. We're gonna play around and test some stuff. Thanks for your help

[dense mesa]

The 'Whitelist' mods are required and the 'Greylist' mods are permitted. All other mods are forbidden. It checks mod versions as well, IIRC. Good luck with it! 🙂

[pearl void]

I just found out Infinitys hammer option for Invulnerability setting "on" caused a bug where when you log off, when you log back on everything would be damaged and no matter how hard you repair, as soon as you log off, it resets, having the option to "Legacy" how ever seems to cause no issues. Took me around 6-7 hours of troulbleshooting, and could maybe only be a problem on my server but, yeah. shrug

[sand igloo]

hello guys magic overhaul It does not work anymore ?

[dense mesa]

That happened to me as well. Thanks for sharing the info here. 🙂

[dense mesa]

I believe MagicOverhaul is deprecated. I think the author has started a new mod in it's place. You can find it here: https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/blacks7ar/MagicPlugin/

[pearl void]

It took me 7 hours to figure out the problem lmao. So just wanted to share the information, Ive no idea why it happens, but yeah, legacy seems perfectly fine

Things you built with invunerble though seemed unrecoverable for me. The peieces dont register as needing fixing so I had to delete somethings sadly

[dense mesa]

Some of those things may be recoverable with the PlanBuild mod. That worked for me. It's worth checking out. The blueprints you made with the hammer that are corrupted may be salvageable with PlanBuild.

[pearl void]

I actually dont have plan build installed, im hearing a lot about it though

[dense mesa]

The PlanBuild mod has a bit of a learning curve but, once you are familiar with it, it's incredibly powerful and useful. The first thing I did with it was to set it's default build option to "Direct" in it's config file.

[sleek monolith]

Console commands are your friend

[pearl void]

Yeah? I may look into it, I built this, just using console commands, and precise movement/gizmo

Theres like a bazzilion console commands though haha

[floral cape]

This is absolutly amazing ! Any website / videos / tips to share to start doing things like that ? Would be very appreciated ! 😮

[pearl void]

Im actually running a server and im looking for builders and such to help build a world. early early beta. I can teach directly, I never thought about making like a tutorial of some sort though 😄 Love the compliment 🙂

[pearl void]

If you dont use infinity hammer, it probolly did 95% the work and infinity tools wouild be my biggest tip, you can freeze objects you place, and precisde move with arrow keys, gizmo lets you rotate and many more angles too. Pick Frozen, Pick, and select are my most used buttons, binding move up and down is helpfull too. If I had to give some quick tips

It even has an undo button if you did someything by mistake

[fallen lark]

Anyone know were you plant the mushroom spores

[dense mesa]

Which mod are you using that let's you plant mushroom spores?

[zenith radish]

I got this error trying to create a new world, does anyone know what causes it or how to fix it. I see its connected to spawn that mod, but unsure exactly what to do. Thanks!

[dense mesa]

I'm not sure it's connected to SpawnThat at all. It might just be happening that the console log is putting the error there after the SpawnThat info msgs. Did you install or modify another mod on your system just as this error showed up?

[zenith radish]

no it happens everytime i try to create a new world

the world gets created but wont start. when i try to start it the same error appears

[dense mesa]

What does 'won't start' look like? Error msgs? Freeze screen? Dump you to desktop?

[zenith radish]

either game freezes a bit or just nothing happens

[dense mesa]

Well, I'm no expert but it sure looks like one of the mods is out of date or broken or not playing nicely with the other mods. Check for those things while waiting for someone else in here to provide better trouble shooting for it than I can.

[zenith radish]

Ill go to bed, and try to fix tomorrow. thanks anyways!

[glad estuary]

Hello, any idea what's going on here? (see attachment)
1st time trying to run valheim mods, installed them with vortex.

[dense mesa]

Vortex mod manager does not work well with Valheim. You need to start over and use the r2modman mod manager from thunderstore.io. You'll need to delete the game and mods and reinstall them.

[glad estuary]

ugh, that sucks

[pearl void]

Any one know a quick way to fill the totems up? be it commands or such? (PlanBuild) Mod

[pearl void]

Ah nvm I failed to see direct placement haha

[dense mesa]

You can change the default placement to always be Direct in the PlanBuild config file.

[pearl void]

Oh you can? Thank god, Ctrl is lower heigh when flying so had all kinds of key bind conflicts. Ima check that config now

[dense mesa]

Yes, it does. I'm sorry for that but I believe it's the best of the choices you have. You're not the first to have to take those steps, if that's any consolation. Just be sure to delete it all (except the world_locals folder) to make sure you don't have any problems left over.

[glad estuary]

i found a work around.. so far so good

[pearl void]

Is this the one? This wont work for all players or will I had to disable it when we open up for play testers, Or is it all client side?

[dense mesa]

That's the right one. I believe the server's settings are sync'd by the server to all clients. See if that's an option in the PlanBuild config file that's on the server.

[pearl void]

Ah I think this overides anyway, so they can only use direct build IF they have resources

[dense mesa]

Looks good. You'll need to test it to be sure it does what you want.

[pearl void]

Yeah, Its a cool mod though 🙂 Gonna speed up things more so in the long run 😄

[zenith radish]

okay so this error is not caused by spawn that. so i have no idea. any help appreciated.

this error comes up at game start then i get the other one trying to start a world

[stiff parcel]

Debugging guide for that issue is here: https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Client-Troubleshooting#missingfieldexception-field-fejdstartupm_connectionfailederror-not-found

[real hearth]

Anyone familiar with the 'Monsternomicon' mod? I'm trying to add it to our existing server and was wondering if I can use Upgrade World / World Edit to generate the biome 'Dark Woods' that come with the mod!

[pearl void]

Anyway to hide this? it kinda ugly

[stiff parcel]

You can change it back to vanilla bars in settings WackyMole.EpicMMOSystem.cfg file: 4.Hud -> OldXPBar set to true

[pearl void]

Ohhh? Thank you so much!

[zenith radish]

I found the issue its mineshafts. I got a quick question what type of mod takes most memory? i seem to always have valheim using around 9k.

[stiff parcel]

Anything that adds new content to the game will increase your memory usage

[zenith radish]

Ofc i meant if any was heavier on the memory items/world gen/mobs/skills for example.

[pearl void]

Does any one know what values you would need to make things super rare, rare, uncommon, common etc? I want to add scary creatures into the server but I wanna make em not over whelming in numbers. Im testing with cyclops but I have no idea what the numbers exactly mean for Spawn Interval and chance, chance seems self explanatory, but the interval?

[restive spruce]

maxspawned 1
spawnsizemin 1
groupsizemax 2
spawninterval 1600
spawnchance 15

maxspawned - it checks the area to see how many are spawned, if setting 10 it will spawn up 10 ten in an area
spawnsize min - the min amount that will spawn at a time
groupsizemax / min - spawns things in a cluster or group
interval is how often it checks if a mob is spawned, chance is the % chance it will spawn a new creature.

[hallow canyon]

okay, so i have added BepInEx and the magicplugin mod, made a new character and world. tried to load it for the first (not using Vulkan), and it goes "not responding". here's the log file if needed:

[jagged nimbus]

Those are completely normal!

[hallow canyon]

so the world files are created upon loading the world successfully? and it could mean another cause?

[pearl void]

Is it in seconds the interval, like what does 1600 mean? 1600 seconds, minutes?, Thanks for the info

[deep fossil]

hey guys somoene familiar with bear mod odin plus the bear is untamable

[dense mesa]

See if that's an option in the mod's config file.

[restive spruce]

should already be set to tamable, but also the bears in the mod are a bit aggressive, Cookiemilk has a bear mod that seems to function a bit better I hear.

[cinder needle]

Does anyone know what this error is? I cant use console anymore

[runic isle]

I'm not sure but I think that's a pretty generic 'mod is broke' error message. You can try this mod to see if it flags one or two that need to be replaced. https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Azumatt/ModAge/

[cinder needle]

Thanks! I will give it a try

Mhm... I tried to remove/disable the mod it said was out of date but I still cant use it with the same error, and every other mod seems to be up to date according to modage x.x

[dense mesa]

I think you'll have to disable them a few at a time to find the one causing the problem. I'd start with any that change or adjust your UI. Good luck with it!

[cinder needle]

Will try, thanks

[stiff parcel]

If you're still having issues fixing this problem, this is the more specific debugging guide for that error: https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Client-Troubleshooting#missingfieldexception-field-terminalm_input-not-found

[cinder needle]

Thanks. It seems it was the "CustomGraphicsSettings" mod that was causing it, but I sort of want to use it to tweak things for fps, so thats a bit sad

[pearl void]

Any one know what this is?

[dense mesa]

What happens if you disable PlanBuild as a test?

[pearl void]

Ill have a look, something defently wrong, blue prints and such not saving

Oh actually, they are saving, I just didnt realise a new catagory creates a new tab. But i still need to look into the error

[short marten]

hello, im using mods but one mod does not let me to see the hour of days. Any idea how can i bring the time back?

[olive basalt]

I don't think anyone can help because no one's knows what mods you're using, also, it might be best to check the forums for that mod

[stiff parcel]

Looks like you just have two overlapping UI elements. Which mod are you using for your clock?

[short marten]

i figured it out thanks anyway

[cinder needle]

Is this an error since it is not in red text? I tried to redownload the mod, but it still shows, or is it because I cant run Chaos and Judes mod at the same time

[deep bolt]

It tells you to ignore it so ignore it

"Loot": [

If you know which part i should change to make them drop less often

[placid jetty]

Anyone knows this issue?

[slate lagoon]

what is the issue?

[placid jetty]

Look at recipe for wooden club

I mean every item crafting recipe displays that

[slate lagoon]

the blue materials at the bottom. I see

[placid jetty]

No knowledge on that then?

[stiff parcel]

Outdated mod, likely an inventory mod or an old "crafting with containers"

If you have Better archery and another inventory mod you need to disable the quiver to use them together. etc, depends on what mods you're using

[placid jetty]

There is not any outdated mod, all of them are latest versions and i havent installed the crafting with containers mod

[stiff parcel]

A mod can be "latest version" while also not being updated for the latest game version. If you send me your bepinex\logoutput.log file I can help you better.

[placid jetty]

Could quick slot mod be the issue?

Altrough i dont have the issue, but my gf has and we have all the same mods

[lapis blaze]

Simply remove one mod at a time until it’s fixed. I’d start with the auto sort and the crate mods

[autumn stratus]

Or just read the console window/ LogOutput it’s likely spamming the mod with the issue

[restive spruce]

I just visit azumatt's discord and make him look at my logs to fix it

[pearl void]

Does servercharacters have any mod conflicts known? When ever rejoin on a character it asks me to make a new one, like its not saving at all

Smoothbrain mods will not load if you have Valheim Plus installed. Also you're using a broken version of Valheim Plus, get the grantapher release, that's the one their community is posting under right now

[restive spruce]

there are often better mods to do what you might want V+ for.

[tawdry pilot]

any idea whis this happenes?

[vagrant roost]

i think these numbers are max number. every map has different sized lands, so it generates different numbers from everything to fit land.

[restive spruce]

It's not usually something to worry about, it happens when a map is generating and cant place a few things.

like it was able to place 118 mountaincaves out of 160 attempted to be placed, not bad honestly.

need help wuth

[jagged nimbus]

when i click start world its does nothing
i have around 50 mods too

[restive spruce]

make sure mods you use have been updated in the last 5 or so months, if they are a year old without updates chances are they dont work

[jagged nimbus]

when i click update all nothing happen

[restive spruce]

you have to check when the mods were last updated, do not use old mods that are not updated in the last 5-6 months

[jagged nimbus]

i got the sync fix mon nothig helps..

[restive spruce]

if an author abandons a mod it just breaks the game, just find new mods

"search updated" not "most downloads"

[stiff parcel]

Weapons Customizer hasn't been updated. You can use Wackys database in its place

[dense mesa]

The Update All button doesn't update all mods. It looks for mods that HAVE an update for you and loads that in. If the mod has no updates, then the button does nothing. So, is a mod is old and has no updates the button doesn't help.

[worn raven]

has anyone experienced an issue with rested buff dropping off randomly? playing a modded server and multiple people seem to be having this issue. not sure what it could be.

followed most of the mods from this vid and now i can't even start valheim bro, idk if i have to adjust the mod order?
he's mentioning only few mods so I was hoping it would go smootly but they tend to be connected to like 160 another mods so it makes about 195 mods now, so idk what am i supposed to do to make my game look like his

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHvOJmUA2rU this is the original video that i followed

[pearl void]

Why isnt direct build working with the hammer that merges all the mods hammers together?

[restive spruce]

usually the issue is old mods, or mods that havent been updated in the last 5 months, but the way to find the issue is your LogOutput.log file located in the bepinex folder.

[ruby saddle]

my bepinex folder is empty

well, shame that I have watched a video that's a year old

[restive spruce]

yeah, the bigger shame is authors that abandon their mods and didnt bother to return to deprecate the mod if they dont plan to update, there isnt really a way to flag someone elses mod as not working so as mod users we just have to understand their last update date is pretty important.

it's not easy modding a game that is in EA, things are going to change, and mods have to evolve around a game, so update dates to the game you can see as "protentional mod death dates"

https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Azumatt/ModAge/

this can be pretty helpful

from that video, I think beasts of burden hasnt been updated in a while, that probably has some errors

[ruby saddle]

thank you

still, limited few mods and game just won't load

unfortunate, cause the game would be prob much more fun with some extra armors and weapons plus biomes

[autumn stratus]

Download any of therzies mods. He has plenty of that

[restive spruce]

armory is pretty awesome, add some jewelcrafting and azu qol mods and it's all you need

i tend to have all equipped hear deleted when logging off with the active slots mod, is this normal behavior ?

[stiff parcel]

Without knowing what mods you're using hard to say. But sounds like the known EAQS bug when using other mods that let you equip extra items?

[mild temple]

that would be "equipment and quick slots" fromRandyknapp

[stiff parcel]

yeah, you're using that one?

[mild temple]

i am

[stiff parcel]

Are you using other mods that add more utility slots etc?

[mild temple]

i am not no, the only mod that i use along side this would be the "equip multiple utility items"

[stiff parcel]

That's the one that has issues with it. You can replace EAQS with this if you want to use that more than one utility item mod: https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Azumatt/AzuExtendedPlayerInventory/

[mild temple]

alright, so i replace which mod with this one ?

[stiff parcel]

EAQS, equipment & quickslots

[mild temple]

alrighty

gonna give it a go

now i don't have either music or can't launch any world

i dragged the dll into the plugin folder within the BepinEx folder as per usual

[stiff parcel]

Did you remove EAQS too, didn't change anything else about your mods? There is a file in the bepinex folder called logoutput.log that would show any errors you have. If you send that to me I can look for issues.

[mild temple]

i dragged out EAQS and dragged in what you sent me, nothing else

lemme send you that folder

where is it located exactly ?

nvm found it, i was blind

[ruby saddle]

yeah i found nice in the video that I watched that you were able to get also new enemies, biomes etc

but since thats not possible and i dont have time finding out why it doesnt work i guess ill have to settle with less

[restive spruce]

https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/JewelHeim/JewelHeim/ this one is pretty cool, but as I was saying about the age of mods, this person keeps their modpacks up to date.

it's not bad to use a collection/modpack, but the same thing applies with those as mods, make sure they were recently updated, it means someone is out there fixing things they find wrong.

[pure compass]

Does anyone here use the VR Valheim Mod and know why I cannot access my quick menu with the Map Icon / Sitting Emote?

[pastel smelt]

Mod Doctors... Please see post in #valheim-help don't want to get in trouble for spamming the discord, lol

[restive spruce]

I fail to see any problem, the photo says you're carrying too much, but you can simply drop the stuff on the ground?

[pastel smelt]

That is my stuff on the ground. Inventory is empty yet still 1680 lbs over carry capacity due to a some random crap an unspecified mod did to me. I opened a standard chest full of silver ore and went to remove a stack, suddenly there was a flicker and all the inventory slots were full of some Icon I didn't recognize and then it was empty, but there was now a scroll bar on the left of the inventory and amny slots.

When I went to drop items I barely made it to that cart. Emptied everything but still frozen now. No Ore is Apparent. So it seems that It hit me so hard with the value of the chest contents that it's a cavity search issue now.

[stiff parcel]

Sounds like a mod incompatibility or recent bug 🤔 Would need to see what mods you're using. Easiest way to do that would be to share your bepinex\logoutput.log file, but can't share it in this channel so you can dm me it and I cna take a peek

[pastel smelt]

is that going to be local or server side, or are there files on each side that need a tweak?

[stiff parcel]

local, client side would show the error

[pastel smelt]

If you have a thunderstore mod manager you can find the folder location from settings -> browse profile folder

[stiff parcel]

It got fixed, looks like it bugged out and combination of refreshing the character and/or mod updates resolved it

[rare heart]

I've noticed that with Seasonality recently, the game graphics are freesing after only a couple minutes starting. anybody else using it and noticing?

[pastel smelt]

Yeah, we tried the killing thing and it totally killed my game, lol. had a 4 second count between frames, couldn't even bring up menu to exit game and had to kill it thru task manager. Updating all mods fixed it.

Are you using Valharvest by chance? That error was appearing for that mod, not sure if it causes problems

[coral summit]

Yeah I have Valharvest. I'll disable it and see if the game launches properly

Huh, that's odd. Disabling it worked, but the mod still works for my friends

[stiff parcel]

Yeah that's the issue that gets reported, workls for everyone else just fine but one person gets the above ^. There's a valharvet discord if you want to ask them if there's any solution to the problem. I'll dm you the link.

I set up a config for it and only a single item from that config is for sale. I used the format of the Vanilla items in the config using copy/paste on notepad++ and changed only the ItemIDs/prices/world keys, etc.

I'm PRETTY sure my itemIDs and worldkeys are correct as I got them from the wiki.
I am using no other mods
I have launched/closed/relaunched the games to generate configs
I'm using a brand new world and character for each test

I think my error has to be somewhere in the formatting/syntax but I can't tell just by looking. Does anyone have any advice?

[autumn arch]

Thanks. I see that it hasn't been updated for 2 years. Does this work on current release? Can see lots of negative comments with people having issues with it.

Vortex 😅 you have to manually remove "vortex worlds" that it installed. I think it's under the BepInEx plugins folder

Looks like it also gave you inslim, whoch you'll want to remove to get clean log files

[stiff parcel]

I heard rumors they are going to be fixing vortex or replacing it, so hopefully they get Valheim sorted out in the future

[restive spruce]

lol, well I know they arent happy so many authors are choosing other locations to upload their mods... they wanted to be the "one" source for them, well because they are a company and want all the traffic/ad money. So I expect with so many using thunderstore, or the bethesda site for their uploads and refusing to upload to nexus with "new mods" the place has turned into a source of outdated mods and EA chasers that jump game to game.

[glacial cave]

thx u guys, all works now

[jagged nimbus]

Hi guys, I've never modded Valheim & wanted to use Valheim+, but I see the author has abandoned this mod. Does anyone know what the best alternative would be for the functionality it gave? I'm particularly interested in crafting/building from storage, better building, and teleporting without restrictions.

[rich zinc]

teleporting without restrictions is in th base game

[jagged nimbus]

Is it? I recall last time I played (although that was probably a year ago) metal couldn't be teleported?

How do i find out what mod is making my server not open..

hey guys, i got an issue running the game with mods using thunderstorm mod manager. i got copied the log from the cmd window before it closed and can provide that thing if that helps somehow, theres lots of errors and warnings in it and game just wont launch.

[bleak stump]

how do we know if any of the mods are safe to install? like there is this odinswatch anti cheat. is it kernel lvl or not

[misty wedge]

The only risk you can get from installing mods for valheim is mods incompatibility which prevent your game from starting up..or just act weird until in crashes

All mods from thunderstore are safe to use cuz files go through moderation and checking for such things

[dense mesa]

Personally, I'm always wary of any mods that aren't on thunderstore.io I just wonder why they wouldn't be there...

[edgy narwhal]

Mods can also modify your save games and make it incompatible with the vanilla game in the future, which can delay you from accessing new content until the mods are updated. It's not always possible to just remove a mod and have everything hunky-dory.

[misty wedge]

Yeah, that's also the part of the game acting weird

[stiff parcel]

If you're looking for an anticheat Azuanticheat is well known and trusted. I think I saw the mod you were talking about got added to thunderstore then quickly was taken down 🤔 Thunderstore got a new anti-malware verification system set up so if a mod exists on thunderstore for a while it's likely to be safe to install. But downloading anything from strangers on the internet always comes with risks.

[bleak stump]

which anti cheat is more common? so that we don't have to make people download other mods, and they keep using whatever they have

[stiff parcel]

I only know about and have used this one https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Azumatt/AzuAntiCheat/

[dense mesa]

What did you mean by "so that we don't have to make people download other mods"? You may be in for a nasty surprise...

[lapis pike]

I've added the ComfyMods Intermission mod, I've added only .png files to the /config/Intermission folder, but the loading screen is only blank white and its still using the regular loading screen. Is there anything I'm missing?

[main prism]

I’m on Xbox as the admin of a dedicated server through dathost, only other Xbox players are in my game. Is there a way to make tamed animals not die for Xbox, specifically wolves? I just jumped over to this game last month after accidentally killing my own wolf in Minecraft and I don’t wanna repeat experience.

[jagged nimbus]

Nope

[bleak stump]

Mods should be also client side, right?

I thought if a server has list of mods, user also have to has those mods to connect to server. Is that not the case?

[jagged nimbus]

Yes.

You put the mods everyone need on whitelist and pptional mods go on greylist.

[dense mesa]

I meant that you need to understand that when you install anti-cheat you're creating a list of mods that players will have to have whether they want them or not. And you're also creating a 'grey' list of other mods that players can have if they want but are not required. All other mods cause the player to be banned. So, anti-cheat does not reduce the mods that players need. It often increases them.

[bleak stump]

We have 5 mods atm.

[dense mesa]

If that's the original ValheimPlus, it's likely to both not work right and create errors on the server. You should consider upgrading it to this version: https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Grantapher/ValheimPlus_Grantapher_Temporary/

And the Dungeon Reset mod is a somewhat out of date and has had some reported problems that do not appear to be getting fixed. You might want to look for another mod at thunderstore.io that does the same thing and is more currently supported.

[deep bolt]

Bepinex and Jotun aren't mods either. Especially bepinex

[bleak stump]

so we can jsut remove them?

[dense mesa]

No. It's not that simple. BepInEx is a mod loader not a mod. You need it if you have ANY other mods on the server. And the Jotunn library supports other mods. In this case the dungeon reset mod.

[deep bolt]

Eh not what I meant. Bepinex is mandatory, Jotun is necessary for many mods

[wide radish]

Help! anyone use gportal for thier server? how do we set it so we can skip to daytime if my husband will never sleep

[bold shell]

What’s a good mod pack for someone who wants all the QOL and added gear, weapons, wildlife, foods, environmental/plantlife overhaul?

[deep bolt]

The one you make yourself by installing them one by one

[dense mesa]

'Relicheim', 'Jewelheim,' and 'Road To Muspelheim and Niflheim' are all good. Or anything by Jewelheim, really. They're well supported and have their own discord you can visit for info, updates, and discussions. And you can fiddle with their configs to adjust them to suit your preferences, although you don't have to. 🙂

[lyric scroll]

Hello everyone, I just finished the game and I want to start modding. The problem is that as soon as I start downloading more than one, there is always a problem!
Do you have a good modpack to recommend?

[lapis pike]

Could someone give some advice about Smoothbrain's Sever Characters? I have a world where we did not want backups + a CharacterTemplate, so every time someone logged on, they had a new character with specific items and skills, which worked great! However, my admins are kind of tired of having to spawn in hammers and tools every single time they log on and aren't near where they were building. I tried turned Backoff = Off and removed the CharacterTemplate file, but it still isn't loading in with items. Is there something I'm missing? Am I able to exempt Admins from the new character with every log in?

[light saffron]

I have a question i want to play with my friends together but i downloaded few modifications and i want to know if my friends will need also to install these modifications too and few others telled me too, some will work and they will not need to installing them too!

[pearl void]

Any one know why structural integrity isnt being applied to planbuild mod? It all just falls apart

[pearl void]

If ur mod is tagged as client and not serverside then no, you can play with client mods with out other people needing them

[restive spruce]

heh, is that how that works? I usually tag my mods as Client and Server, however, I dont use Server Enforcement. If the mod is placed on the server it syncs the config to the clients, if it isnt put on the server it just reads the client config.

[pearl void]

Yeah its why theres a whitelist mod, to stop people using mods you dont want them using on ur server. Most configs are server synced, and overide other peoples config files, but most settings that dont get over-ridden are just key bind settings and such

[restive spruce]

yeah, I usually suggest any server use azu's anticheat to enforce their modlist because the mods I make as OdinPlus just use server sync and not enforcement.

[pearl void]

Server sync just helps old mods load, doesnt have any say in what mods people can use though? unless im thinking of something else

[restive spruce]

probably something else, Serversync is something we add to our mods so they read the server config, it's sort of like a reference/lib - in the code we can enforce server requirements or just sync configs if the mod is on the server.

[pearl void]

Ahhh yeah I got it confused with a diffrent serversync, Most my configs will say like "Synced with server" and some mods even have optional overrides. I love config files set out like that, Mods that arent tagged server or client are a pain though aha

[jagged nimbus]

That's why I enforce all my mods to be client + server so there's no confusion!

[light saffron]

And how will I’m be able to see which one of these using tagged as client? In the configs ?

[runic isle]

It comes up in the mod's icon/description when you find it at thunderstore.io

[jagged nimbus]

Hey guys, is there a recommended way for getting mods? I'm not super familiar, but tried through Vortex on Nexusmods & it bricked Valheim until I uninstalled it (just had Bepin and Eternal Fuel or whatever)
Not sure if it had anything to do with the fact I'm playing on controller, because I could alt tab away from the cmd window full of error text & go in the game window, but my controller no longer worked lol.

Should I get the thunderstore app instead & uninstall Vortex? I just scrolled up and saw someone had similar issues.

[opal tree]

Yeap get the open-source ads-free version:

• https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/ebkr/r2modman/

Browse mods:

• https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/

r2modman supports installing mods from zip-file or .dll (when using mods downloaded elsewhere) via Settings > Install local mod

[jagged nimbus]

Very cool. Thank you!

[pearl void]

Yes, its very much appreciated, It just makes life so much easier for server devs haha 🥲

[pearl void]

Any one happen to know the problem here? Trying to set a custom zone, Circles and square work fine but I cant figure out the custom addition, what I set should make a 400 by 400 square?

[west bay]

@abstract wedge i dont know how to check my valheim version

[abstract wedge]

bepinex log should show you

[west bay]

https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1042?tab=description

thats the mod im trying to sue with it

[abstract wedge]

you want the mod off of thunderstore, not nexusmods. nexusmods is consistently outdated for some things.

https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Advize/PlantEverything/

[west bay]

i cant use thunderstore with vortex?

[abstract wedge]

and yeah, that's a rewrite i guess

so that mod you're using isn't even the original mod, it's some type of fork

[west bay]

ok ill try this thunderstore

[abstract wedge]

you can't import the mod archive into vortex? i haven't used vortex, but the mods are all of the same standard file structure

not sure 😛

"Manual Download" will give you a .zip file with the mod files

[west bay]

yeah i think i got that figured, gonna try launching again here

still nope

same error is still happening

my game should be up to date as well, i just installed it a few days ago

[abstract wedge]

did you do anything aside vortex, like manually trying to setup the mods?

i'm using that mod, seems to work fine with current release of valheim

[west bay]

no i havent touched any of that, the only thing ive done myself is make those folders i mentioned. unstripped_corlib and unstripped_managed

it was giving me errors for those not existing and another site said a fix is to make those folders in my valheim folder

[abstract wedge]

did vortex tell you to do that?

[west bay]

those errors went away when i did that but this one is still here

[abstract wedge]

i would highly recommend you use r2modman tbh, and to set it up after removing your valheim files and regenerating fresh ones

[west bay]

removing my valheim files? like jsut uninstalling? im not trying to start a new game

[abstract wedge]

you won't start a new game, your save files are stored either in steam cloud or in your save directory, i'm talking about the game folder itself

so uninstalling would do, your saves will be fine

they don't get removed, nor do your worlds

[west bay]

alright gonna reinstall and then try this r2modman

[abstract wedge]

whenever you start r2modman, use the Online tab to search for your mod and install it there, there's a "Start Modded" button in the top left of the app to start your game with those mods

after you create a profile for valheim, that is

[west bay]

success

youre my hero thank you so much

[abstract wedge]

nice!

[lapis estuary]

anyone have any idea how to start troubleshooting this?

[simple folio]

Is there a config file somewhere to make it player based raids?

[young olive]

To make what player based raid?

[simple folio]

so on a dedicated server say fresh has only killed The Elder. But Joe has killed Bonemass. How do i make to where i recieve elder raids and joe recieves his bonemass raids because he is further than i? Just an example

@young olive

[young olive]

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

[simple folio]

for dedicated brotha

[young olive]

Same thing. But that would be for #dedicated-server

[hot zenith]

Has anyone gotten the InvisArmor mod to work? Given the console output I'm thinking their patching methods may be deprecated.

[lapis pike]

changing the world modifiers did not work on our dedicated server, so we put World Advancement Progression mod on

[jagged nimbus]

It works but you need to put them in your start server bat file.

[tropic pebble]

game wont start after i downloaded epicloot and valheim+. how do i fix it? im on gamepass

[dense mesa]

Remove valheim+. It's deprecated.

[simple folio]

did that work for ya?

[lapis pike]

Yes

[potent tiger]

Got these two but im not noticing anything wrong with my game. Is this causing issues or just a random error code?

[autumn stratus]

If you opened your inventory, it would be absolutely screwy

those mods are very old and not updated

[potent tiger]

ty ty

[junior bough]

If I host a server with a friend and install mods, do they have to also install the mods?

[autumn stratus]

Depends on the mod. Read the mod page to determine server need and other client need.

[junior bough]

it's just silly things like expanded inventory and such

[autumn stratus]

Still depends.

[autumn stratus]

It's recommended that if you're changing your UI inventory size, that they might also need the additional slots. Otherwise you'd bug their inventory out since they cannot grab from your tombstone etc.

[junior bough]

Thank you!

[autumn stratus]

Always keep player inventory sizes and such synced and the same. If you have 8 more slots than they do (or special slots), you could lose inventory if they pick up your tombstone...or they could bug theirs out since you attempted to add more to their inventory than it can handle.

[jagged nimbus]

Do mods brick controller support or am I just having weird problems? I tried through Nexusmods first & realized the app was garbo, then moved on to thunderstore and didn't run into any errors thankfully, but my controllers stopped working.

[autumn stratus]

Not all mods support controller since very little PC players use them.

and it's a massive P.I.T.A.

[jagged nimbus]

Fair enough. I had just tried EternalFuel I think it was called, and oddly my controller just didn't work after installation even from the start-up menu.

Like the game didn't recognize it at all, the usual gamepad buttons were absent.

[pallid ice]

im trying to play modded and i played it a few months ago but now it wont let me create a new character if i start it vanilla it works fine but if i try modded it doesnt work

[autumn stratus]

Sounds like you're using old modss that haven't been updated or have other issues. Pay attention to the console/log window that boots with the game.

[regal oxide]

Can i have someone who knows mods help me figure out some issues?

[stiff parcel]

Best to just ask your question and if someone knows they will answer

[regal oxide]

Basically, when using mods they load up, but my biomes aren’t generated. No trees or anything past the initial spawn area and a few meters out from the stones. I only have a handful of mods and theres no updates for them or conflicts thru vortex ive checked. Not sure what is causing it. Unless its cuz im running the play test version

[restive spruce]

your issue is vortex

[regal oxide]

Oh??

[restive spruce]

most all of us will suggest using thunderstore, or R2modman to install mods, it's just a bit better for us to support and easier for the end users. gives them way more options to mod valheim and share mods with friends.

[stiff parcel]

If by play test version you mean the public test branch that shouldn't cause issues, that should be the same as live right now. But it will cause you problems once Ashlands is released for play testers, so I would swap to the none beta if you play with mods. Vortex installs some broken packages for you automatically, it can be fixed but it's easier to just swap to the thunderstore mod manager if you don't want to have to fix it manually.

[regal oxide]

Yeah i just deleted them all and reinstalled the game and its still doing it so

[restive spruce]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfvA5a5tNHo

[regal oxide]

Ill give it a shot and see. Cuz thats the only issue is that its not loading the world past the first few meters initially

[restive spruce]

I mean, a mods age may have a lot to do with it, searching newer/updated mods is best

like if something hasnt been updated in a year then chances are it wont work

[regal oxide]

I checked all my mods have been updated in the last 3-4 months at the latest

Up until like a couple weeks or days ago

[steady harbor]

Having some trouble with epicloot:
[Error : Unity Log] JsonReaderException: After parsing a value an unexpected character was encountered: ". Path 'ItemInfo[17].ItemsByBoss.defeated_queen[9]', line 245, position 282.

I assume this is the iteminfo.json but I can't find any bad syntax in the "defeated_queen" lines. Can anyone help me hone in on what the 17, 9, 245 and 282 mean when opening the file in notepad?

Would it be the 9th total item in the defeated_queen lines? Or the 9th instance of defeated_queen coming up in the file?

Aha! Always figure it out right after you ask for help. Turning wordwrap off the line 245 was just after the problem

[neon heart]

Hello! I am trying to locate the server mod that allows people to form a party via /invite. Please tell me what the name of that mod is! Thanks!!

[autumn stratus]

Either Groups or Guilds

Depending on what you want.

[half ore]

hello, i'm having some issues with the SmarterContainers mod, i don't seem to get how it works while using this icon.
It's different from what i've found on youtube, i installed with thunderstorm, should i just do it manually for all of my mods?

[restive spruce]

I havent seen anywone use the mod so I dont know anything about it, but as long as it was updated in the last few months it should be ok. if it hasnt been updated in the last 4 or so months then it means the mod may be broken.

idk, sounds like you got it from nexus so you can try their comments section for the mod

[rustic grotto]

Thanks mate, Groups it is!
I hadn't heard of Guilds, will look that one up!

[autumn stratus]

Guilds is like permanent groups.

[outer bobcat]

sorry for posting a link but Im curious if anyone has any information on this mod. Im not even sure the name of it. Darkas and Ninebyte. Valheim Mechanicus is there youtube. Any information is appreciated https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFINcK3xcfs

[restive spruce]

this is several mods, and the making of a map using those mods. It seems to be a map that will be shared/ran, they have an unmodded and modded version of it.

I can see they used quite a few Jere mods, maybe marketplace, and structuretweaks

[outer bobcat]

Thanks for the info

[restive valley]

Yo, I've had this issue before but forgot how to fix it. All crafting recipes are displaying as this for me

[jagged nimbus]

Check your log, its an outdated mod.

[restive valley]

how do? I am very bad at all things mod related

[jagged nimbus]

Are you using a modmanager?

[restive valley]

r2

checked the bepinex, lotta red, not a lot of useful info

Ah ive got it, crafting with containers

[snow pier]

hello i have been using valheim plus by Grantapher using vortex and recently my config file does not pick the mod

[compact thorn]

What mod usually gives the "$menu_" bug?

[compact thorn]

Problem was BetterUI.^

[rigid halo]

Is there a mod that allows me to dig (remove ground) at a larger radius?

[autumn stratus]

Use the forever maintained one

[compact thorn]

Yeah I dug around and saw that. Thank you. :)

[junior monolith]

I'm new to Unity games and mods. After I run run_bepinex.sh, do I need to keep using that script to run Valheim w/ BepInEx or does it somehow wrap the game executable in a way it auto-loads the BepInEx stuff?

[junior monolith]

n/m, figured it out, yep, you do have to run it via that or a similar wrapper

[twin oyster]

Does a mod exist that allows you to spawn boss's anywhere on a dedicated server?

[junior monolith]

Yep, if you're configured as a server admin:
https://github.com/JereKuusela/valheim-dev
Then see spawn in:
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Developer_console#Admin_commands
And search for Bosses in:
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Item_IDs

[finite kettle]

Possible to turn the mod "Eternal torches (by Pinapple)" off and on during the game?

Pressing F5 brought up most of the mods settings except that one.

[white bramble]

Will valhiemplus work with xbox? Gportal is showing it in the config file.

[jagged nimbus]

No

[autumn kelp]

should i use vortex or a different mod manager?

[restive spruce]

use r2modman from Thunderstore, it is better for modding valheim.

[twin oyster]

@junior monolith yeah looking for something that works on a dedicated sever not single player.

[twin oyster]

@junior monolith nevermind full woke up, figured it out. Now I can wrap our game up with an Armageddon at out main base against the bosses lol.

[vernal pine]

Guys, i use vortex for modding valheim n didnt work which mean Fatal Error isnt pre loading yet, how solve this? this is my first time use mod in valheim✌🏻

[restive spruce]

the issue probably is vortex, use r2modman or thunderstore modman (samething) for valheim mods. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfvA5a5tNHo

[vernal pine]

are those both safe to use? bcs i get vortex from nexusmod

[restive spruce]

I would suggest using r2modman, thunderstore modman comes with overwolf (not that it's harmful but it pushes advertisements at you).
Yes they are safe, much safer than vortex for modding valheim if you're worried about errors and things. Most authors upload more mods to thunderstore, nexus only has a few that update there and a whole lot of broken mods that dont get updates.

[vernal pine]

ah i c, i'll try later asap, thanks for advicing me

[restive spruce]

best advice I have for you with modding is to search newer/updated mods over "most downloads". Mods that are older than 4-5 months without any update may not work, so just keeping that in mind it helps what mods you might select.

[delicate bison]

hello! i am about to fire up a new dedicated server, this time i wanted to try mods since the last one i had around the early release of the game was pure vanilla. i have been watching a million tutorials and i am familiar with running servers and adding & updating mods from running servers for quite a few games over the years...

my question is generally how compatible are the valheim mods with each other as long as you have the required dependencies and try to avoid the listed conflicts? i really wanted to start small with modding... but i keep running across so many little QoL mods that i would like to try lol. i'm not sure if i should add them in small batches and keep checking for issues or make a modpack and just see what happens? i dunno if adding or removing mods can potentially corrupt a world or if it is relatively safe to do after the server has been running for a while?

i've had servers for other games with hundreds of little one trick mods, like my project zomboid server had 300+ mods... the issue was that sometimes ONE little needle in the haystack would cause people to be unable to connect to the server even if they had the same version of the mod that was running.

i'm just trying to gauge how best to approach setting up the server initially. i know pretty much which mods i really want to have and which are just ones i might want. the clients will be just irl friends and will all have the exact same ones as the server at all times.

sry for the wall of text, any advice would be appreciated. thx! 🙂

i was thinking of doing the ones i RLY want first, like Valheim Raft etc, ones that have been recently updated and seem to be highly recommended by pretty much all the mod guides ive watched recently... but there's so many.

is there some sort of list of mods which are definitely not compatible that is maintained anywhere?

[restive spruce]

There are a few people who stand out, they ask the authors lots of questions, make sure they use updated mods in their mod packs and try to maintain those modpacks. Using those as a base isnt a bad idea. https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/JewelHeim/?section=modpacks
They went and learned how to configure the yml files and everything so their modpacks are a good example.
However, the best advice again is using mods that are maintained and updated, usually you wont have problems with those and if you do then you know the author is active somewhere to address any problems or conflicts you run into.

[north flower]

That’s a lot of words

[delicate bison]

lol

reading gets easier with practice... O_o

[stiff parcel]

Valheim mod something something valheim 😄 lol

[restive spruce]

when in doubt of what stuff to use, it's better to ask than go installing a bunch of mods from 3 years ago

[delicate bison]

lol i'm goin thru the ones i selected to see which are recently updated. some i rly wanted are no longer supported so that makes it easier to choose. a few are only for more end game stuff so i hope adding them in later wont break things... but that's what backups are for i guess >.<

[stiff parcel]

Like gravebear said, the Jewelheim packs are good examples, all those mods are compatible with each other. But mods are always changing, especially with game updates so two mods that are compatible might break at any time. If the author is active you can usually get them to fix it if you report the issue.

[north flower]

I prefer vanilla servers. Can’t mod on Xbox so I like it to be the same content regardless of the platform.

[stiff parcel]

Then you're in the wrong chat mate lol

[north flower]

I use mods when I play locally

But on my dedi server, no mods

I just hope they’ll release Valheim for other systems

[delicate bison]

it looks like ones like valheim raft and stuff like that are hopefully gonna be pretty reliable. i was sad to see the magic overhaul one i wanted is broken now. it looked pretty cool. the magicheim one looks like it's not rly done yet and magic plugin looks decent but maybe OP for early game.

we did all the way thru vanilla when the game came out. this server will be private only for myself, my wife and our friends. we're all on pc so the cross platform limitations won't be an issue.

i know they added magic into the game but i liked the idea of having classes like healers or summoners/warlocks/necromancers, etc rather than just pew pew pew mage.

i mean when we played there was legit no magic... so i guess any magic is somethin 🙂

i rly appreciate the responses. i'll just keep doing some vid watching and date checking... and try to whittle down my mod wishlist before it becomes a problem @_@

[stiff parcel]

I love Magic Plugin, it might be a little buffed but you can find other mods (Wackys database, bit of setup) to change the stats if you want, or up the game difficulty if it's too easy.

Raft I would recommend staying away from. It is buggy and the author hasn't updated it in a long time (someone else has been reuploading changes but don't think it solved the bugs?) Many people have logged back in to their raft being a black hole of build pieces. So keep that in mind

[delicate bison]

ah i also looked at odins ship and some other ones.. i dont rly need to build a ship bit by bit... but the original ones are kinda meh

[restive spruce]

joining the larger modding discords, tossing your logoutput.log into their channels they have for log reports often helps to identify what is causing problems. They have bots that read the logs and point out potential errors and outdated mods.

[delicate bison]

oh nice! yeah i've seen some mentions of forums as well for bug reporting etc, i haven't checked any yet tho

[stiff parcel]

I've played with Odin Ship before and really like the variety of boats it adds. There's two other boat mods I have heard of, Shipyard and Boat Additions

[delicate bison]

i mean im def not lookin to make my own mods... im too old and slow for that kind of stuff anymore heh

but yeah the QoL stuff that's possible now with inventory and all the farm and cooking stuff my wife rly wants seem like good additions to vanilla... the stuff with a million armor and weapon options are just overwhelming lol im like uh there was like 5 sets of armor total... i can't

[stiff parcel]

This is the modding wiki with links to modding discords and some basic troubleshooting guides too, but people are always happy to answer questions on discord https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Modding-Discords

[delicate bison]

oh ty!!! 🙂

i think we may just start kinda small and hopefully adding things bit by bit won't melt the world down

[stiff parcel]

That's always a solid strategy

[delicate bison]

i just saw a lot of warnings against the big multi funtion mods like valheim plus or whatever even tho they did look handy

there are a lot of small ones that do the same stuff without all the stuff i'd never think to use

i want a compass! 😉

the devs already added options for some of the most bleh things like not being able to tele with ore etc... all it did was make people log to a solo server and drop everything.. go home and go grab it from the solo... or just console spawn in everything

[stiff parcel]

If you don't plan on using most of Valheim Plus I would stay away from it because it can cause a lot of mod incompatibilities. The stand alones often have more features anyways

[delicate bison]

so that was a nice thing i guess to save some loading screens lol.
yeah i dont think i need most of the options it has. a few look nice but ive seen mods for everything at this point. it is kinds of nice when they are known to be compatible tho. i'll look at some of the modpacks and maybe just start there tho. i kinda like the new start struggle anyway, it only happens at the very start of a playthrough

thank u soooo much for the help! i'll try to answer my own questions as much as i can in the future lol

[stiff parcel]

You good, there are some people who just love chatting and are happy to answer questions 🙂

[delicate bison]

for sure! im off to break things and figure out how to put them back in order. take it ez

[delicate bison]

is anyone currently using Magicheim? The page on thunderstore says only the mage class works... but im watching a video right now (with a link to the tunderstore page for the mod) that says the druid class is also available? the patchnotes say they did add the druid, just wonderin if anyone tried it and it's working or somehwat working?

(wife mains a healer druid in evil WoW lol ) im tryin to appease the gods O_o

[restive spruce]

I think he only has mage and druid done for that mod so far, sort of an ongoing project

[delicate bison]

it looks kinda interesting, their page says they have a lot planned. hopefully dev continues! thx again 🙂

[dense mesa]

I love the idea for Magicheim! It would add so much to the game. I can't wait 'till he gets it finished. Could a couple of you guys find out where he lives and go over there and help him bang it out? Maybe by the end of the week? I'd really appreciate it! 😄

[runic isle]

yes I'm pretty sure that's exactly how it works with building mods 🧐

[calm moss]

Does anyone know a mod to improve my fps?

[restive spruce]

https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/coemt/Particle_Control/

less fire sources for light and more lanterns... most fire sources have an audio loop, several layers of particles, fuel scripts, and aoe collision running on each one, less of them things helps my fps most.
there are mods like Crystal Lights and OdinsKingdom where I have reduced fps light sources, but that is my opinion on what hits fps the most, they over-do fire/torches for lights.

that is if you dont have mods causing errors or anything.

[calm moss]

muito obrigado meu maior problema é mesmo nas construçoes vo testar aqui obrigado de novo

Can ANYONE help me, I use thunderstore for mods, and launch valheim through xbox game pass ON PC. I can join modded worlds but when I try to join a modded server it tells me instantly I could not connect.

[dense mesa]

Do you get an error msg when trying to join the dedicated server?

[latent drum]

just "error failed to connect" instantly but i joined a random community modded server

[dense mesa]

There are only two kinds of servers. Either in-game server or dedicated server. The server you're trying to join is in the server list you get with the Join tab when you start your game?

[latent drum]

Yes! I do join game add server, add the Ip then it adds it but has the little red x in the bottom right of the white symbol then if i click join it instantly says failed to connect

[dense mesa]

It sounds like the server is not active. Go to the geekstrom.de/valheim/check site and put in the same IP address and port number there to see if it can find the server.

[latent drum]

The server is up, im in their discord and there is players on it AND I checked that website already and tried using that Ip (which was the same) and still nothing

does crossplay have to be enabled even though I am on pc but going through xbox game pass pc? thats what im wondering if thats the problem

[dense mesa]

Oh, you're using game pass. I can't help with that. You can try asking in the #xbox-bugs-discussion channel here. They may have experience with your problem.

[latent drum]

ah my bad! thank you!

[latent drum]

Can anyone help answer some of the questions I have regarding modding?

[restive spruce]

sure, but just ask the questions.

[autumn stratus]

Yeah, asking to ask just makes you getting your answer take longer

[dense mesa]

When someone is playing Valheim on their PC, using the MS game pass version, it appears that they can actually use some mods in that environment but not others.

It also appears that they don't get the helpful Jotunn error window at game start up that tells you exactly what mods are creating problems trying to connect to a server.

So, what can they do to determine which of their mods can be removed to try and connect to a particular server? Is disabling or removing mods one or a few at a time the only way they can determine that?

Is there a list somewhere of game pass compatible mods? Are there any clues as to what kind of mods you could or could not use in that environment? Do they get a log file that helps track down particular mod errors in that situation?

And finally, apparently you can't just go to the #xbox-bugs-discussion channel for answers to these pame pass issues/questions. If you try to get help there they just see the word "mod" and immediately refer you to this channel.

Scroll back a bit here and check other recent posts from @latent drum and you'll see that he's already spent a bit of time on this server trying to get some help with his issue.

[latent drum]

Hey thanks for the little call out @dense mesa

[haughty folio]

Hello, is it ok if I ask about the question I had?

[autumn stratus]

Sorry for the 20 minute delay in saying, yes, please ask your question.

[haughty folio]

That's unacceptable, I already forgot about the question I was about to ask of the question on some randon mod.

[autumn stratus]

I already forgot too

[runic isle]

It's not surprising that you two are having memory issues. The air must be a lot thinner up there where you are on your elitist Ivory Towers. The guy was asking for honest basic user support and then being ignored and shuffled around for two days. And that's how you treat him?

[autumn stratus]

We didn't see him ask a question after asking his question. It's not elitist or anything. Also, not like we are here enough to see 2 days worth of shuffling around and such. He was asking to ask, instead of just asking in the support channel what he wanted to ask.

Simple poking fun, nothing filled with elitist malice

[haughty folio]

That's sweet bro.

[restive spruce]

It gets a bit weird having mods-issues and mods-discussion, people will ask to ask their question here and ask it in the other channel... I still think we really only need one mods-channel for support and discussion, but I think some do like different channels.

[runic isle]

I'm not your bro. And, you're welcome.

[dense mesa]

He came to you with a problem asking for help and you two tried to make him look stupid. Great fun.

[autumn stratus]

8 hours after he asked to ask. Simply poking fun that he never asked his question on what the issue was.

Can't help when the question is never asked, even many hours later.

With how many questions I answer, help with, or overall get asked on a daily basis, it's weird for someone to ask for help and then never actually ask what they wanted help with.

[deep bolt]

Next time someone asks if they can ask something, someone should tell them "no" as apparently that is an answer they're expecting

Asking if you can ask for help in the channel dedicated to provide help...

[autumn stratus]

And then only responding to something else that jaga posted but not the original help question that we are talking about. Then, ghosts the whole convo after. Just makes me think they never truly wanted help.

[deep bolt]

Probably the questions were the friends we made along the way

[autumn stratus]

Happy to help, and usually very informative when I do. I just don't see harm in poking fun at someone that never truly asked what they wanted help with many hours later. The chastising after our poking fun is a bit much considering it's not like we made fun of a question that was truly asking for help. Simply the question about the potential question that was never asked.

and I thought that the timeframe between our messages would be enough to diffuse tension over a joke.

When I start the game with Mods on Thunderstore, I cant see any servers, is this a known bug?

[restive spruce]

a bit more details might be needed, such as what mods you might be using, because no, that isnt normal

[rose wedge]

Can I send Screenshots in here?

[restive spruce]

check your mods, when they were last updated, if things are old, like 6 months or so, then try and find new alternatives

they have a mods screenshot channel if it doesnt let you here

[rose wedge]

Those are my curent mods installed

[stiff parcel]

That version of betterUI is broken

[rose wedge]

ill try without

[stiff parcel]

Probably farm grid too, I forgot what the latest version of that was

But you already have plant easily so it's not needed

[rose wedge]

It was indeed the UI Mod

[restive spruce]

https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Azumatt/Minimal_UI/

[stiff parcel]

Or get the betterUI forever maintained version

[restive spruce]

yeah but minimal is pretty awesome, especially if you like to get all creative and stuff.

[stiff parcel]

Tru

[autumn stratus]

It's alright. I know it's not for everyone.

[restive spruce]

that's no way for an elitist to talk... it's a great mod.

[haughty folio]

Tried? I think we were pretty successful. 😎

[runic isle]

Perfect!! 🤣

[rustic grotto]

What can be done with Asmodeous' Head/Trophy?

[naive ravine]

i think im having trouble with armory and warfare mods where im not unlocking some items when i should any solutions?

[rustic grotto]

The recipes unlock in order of progression, so you have to complete the previous set before getting the next, that is all I know.

[errant kelp]

Is it possible to play with Mods on Xbox?
We have a Nitrado server. Can I load “ grow anywhere” and then use that whilst playing Xbox?
Can anyone answer with any certainty please?

[jagged nimbus]

No

[stiff parcel]

If you want to use mods while playing on an xbox they have to be server-side. There are not many server side mods but this page has some of them: https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Xbox-Compatible-Mods

(And any mod author reading this feel free to add your qualifying mods to this page)

[errant kelp]

So if the mods are added server side. It makes no difference if I’m on Xbox. They will still work fine

[stiff parcel]

If the mod works server side you can effectively use them while playing on xbox. I think "grow anywhere" is a client side mod so won't work for you

[restive spruce]

make friends with a pc player who can download the mod and grow stuff for you

[smoky folio]

I'm looking for QoL mods that don't add too much, any recommendations?

• always lit torches
• auto sort chests / pull from center chest and populate according to what is in the chest
• grid farming or something to speed up farming enough veggies for 6 ppl

[stiff parcel]

Grid farming can be done with "Plant Easily". Theres a ton of different torch mods on thunderstore, each works slightly different. And auto-storing to chests can be done with either AzuAutoStore (thunderstore), or Smarter Containers (officially on nexus only)

[weary barn]

if i have a vanilla server where me and my friends play but i want to add a mod,does everybody in the server need to download the mod? (im the host)

[autumn stratus]

Depends on the mod

Read the mod pages, tags on the mod etc to determine that

[balmy gale]

Hi guys. Is valhiem plus something i can just install into the dedicated server, or will everyone who plays have to install it locally aswell?
also does anyone know if betternetworking is compatible with valhiem plus?

i know the betternetworking works with just installing to the server. players wont have to download

[restive spruce]

in my experience, most things with the word "better" just make things worse.

[balmy gale]

LOL

takes me back to skyrim days

[restive spruce]

well if you're using grantapher's valheim plus, that does work.
as for network mods, https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/Smoothbrain/Network/

[neat mist]

Hey! I am having an issue with some of my mods in which where I take out a fishing rod or a bow, my game instantly crashes. Here are my mods. I thought it was weird because it doesn't seem like any of these mods would have much to do with it.

I figured it out! I was Odins Ships! Odd...

[kindred epoch]

I've got a question

Is there any mods that act like the kill all commands in devcommands

Also dose the devcommand kill all harm players

DM me the answer as I'm in need of this information strage request I'm know

[leaden spoke]

curious about the SQG modpack cant get it working but it says its updated

[delicate bison]

hey all, im wondering if making my own modpack for a small private dedicated server is necessary or is there another, possibly easier, way to get my friends and family a list of the mods they will need to join the server? i looked into how to make and upload modpack, but im not sure if you have to edit the manifest each time a mod is updated or will the links in the pack point to the newest version of each mod automatically regardless of the version when you follow them to install? i figure once they are in the mod manager they will be kept up to date anyway, but for a fresh client does the pack need to point to a specific version? i guess even if the link somehow went to a previous version the mod manager would indicate an update was available?

I was thinking of maybe making a spreadsheet i could share or even an email with a list of URLs if the modpack info needs to be constantly updated?

any advice?

thx again! 😉

[vivid cedar]

Hi i have valheim on steam and i use Thunderstore to play with mods i created a new valheim mod profil and i now when i try to start the game it says error The System cannot find the file
does somebody know how to fix this

[vivid cedar]

Okay, I reinstalled the Thunderstore Manager and selected the game folder again. After encountering another error, I tried launching the game through Steam and then closing it, which resolved the issue for me. Everything seems to be working fine now.

Hello people of the server. I have a ISSUE :
I can do a single command on my server (I play in solo and did not activated the multiplayer server thingy)
There is my info in the chat :

[restive spruce]

something not liking a text mesh pro, any mods that have some type of Text Input on them? a modded Sign or feedback box?

[fresh night]

hummm I have not a good knowledge about the mods I have put... So Can you check for me (I check in the same time)

This is all I go

(Serverdevcommands don't change a thing, I have tried that first)

[restive spruce]

honestly I would just go through your list, if you see anything that says "last updated ages ago" (hasn't been updated in the last 6 or 7 months) then I would just turn it off and test.

I think some you have are a year old or more and just are broken

most of the modding discord have a bot that you just toss your logs into a channel and it tells you if things are old

[fresh night]

Oh oki Thanks man (I try that ;p)

[fresh night]

Well that was true XD
it's the HOE RADIUS mod that did that thing

[fresh night]

And I find someone who DID a uptadate of the mod (And it DOES WORK and doesn't do this bug)
Thanks for the info and good day sir
