[pseudo thorn]

🥺 🙏

[nova yacht]

i was able to sideload the old mod and get it back, thanks

[dense mesa]

Make sure that this is the mod that you downloaded and are using: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/JamesJonesTV/EpicLoot_EnchantingPouch/

[pseudo thorn]

I thought this mod just added ingredient bags, does it really change the rarity completely?

[dense mesa]

So... Did you download and use the mod that I asked you about above? There is more than one Epic Loot mod.

[pseudo thorn]

Not yet, I will try and install it in the near future, when I do I will let you know

[stiff parcel]

It's hidden because it's deprecated, turn on filtering to display those and you can see it again. We recommend switching to another inventory mod. Azumatt's will automatically drop your old items if you install it (and remove eaqs)

[pseudo thorn]

I doubt it worked. There should be no yellow rarity

[sharp birch]

Yeah! That confused me too.
It's funny that "yellow" is rare item whereas "green" is legendary item but you'll get over it soon.

[pseudo thorn]

Yes, I got used to playing before, I just hoped that the epic loot was updated and the colors of the materials changed as in the screenshot I posted above

[sharp birch]

Rarity colour isn't my main concern of that mod, it's the legendary/mythic rarity that have so long stats that they start to glitch everytime, I try to read them.

[eager thunder]

Getting this error when trying to load up a fresh install of relicheim on a dedicated server anybody have any idea what might be causing it?

Verify your game files.

[dense mesa]

And, if re-verifying your game files doesn't fix it, try this: #mods-issues message

[stiff parcel]

A recent update should have fixed some of the issues with that, is it still happening?

[cinder oracle]

Okay, I guess idk what I am doing... So I have a val dedicated server running on the steam tool, on a Win11 extra PC, it is only running the server, I used R2modman to install the mods, but idk what I did wrong? I get these errors when trying to play on the server with all the same mods

[sacred orchid]

Your server is not modded, which is what that error is showing. Take a look at the server troubleshooting guide https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Server-Troubleshooting

[shadow dirge]

So I seem to be having a strange issue with my asksvin. And I think my lox, too. They're tamed and breeding endlessly, ignoring the usual cap. I've slaughtered 20 asksvin and removed their food because they wouldn't stop breeding. It might be a mod issue. But I didn't think the mods I'm using would affect that. Using r2modman. My current mods are...

-BetterUI_ForeverMaintained
-ValheimNoSkillLoss
-Badgers HD Terrain
-Badgers Valheim Skies for Willybachs HD Valheim
-Plant Everything
-ExtraSlots
-AzuSkillTweaks
-Venture_Floating_Items
-Jotunn
-EitrMagicExtended
-Better_Staff_Of_Protection

I'm a bit stumped at this point. Anyone have similar issues or theories on what might be causing it?

[spare tangle]

can enyone help me?
i have cow on my world.... can i tame it?
what food he eat?

[shadow dirge]

This appears to be the wrong channel for that question. #valheim-help may be the better area to ask...unless the cow was modded in. If it looks like a giant, brown-furred lizard, that's a lox. They eat Cloudberries, Barley, and Flax.

[unkempt cradle]

do you understand that the 'cap' is based on their proximity to one another? and isnt a simple numerical limit.
also: complaining about excessive fecundity... as if :) "oh no, i have ToO MuCh loxpie and ashlands gear??!!!???"

[shadow dirge]

It gets to be an issue when they're clogging up the area and producing entirely too much loot. I've taken to using the Obliterator on the extra garbage due to already having all of the gear. Mostly just needed the asksvin tails and lox heads, really.

[hexed agate]

I don’t know if anyone has reported this before but Every boat I build breaks up in the water. No matter what the depth is. Does anyone know a solution for this or am I stuck in the Black Forest for eternity?

[dense mesa]

Are you building 'vanilla' boats or are you using a mod to create the boats?

Have your boats always done this? Do they break up from waves or also in calm waters?

[raw rune]

im having an issue where i cannot place the eikthyr trophy on its hook. i have a trophy its in my inventory, (yes i am looking at the hook when i try and interact with it) but it still won't place

would appreciate any help w this, also im playing it modded

[dense mesa]

Start your game unmodded and see if you can mount it that way. If you have extra rows of inventory, do that with those rows empty.

[raw rune]

worked ty

[honest willow]

hi there, my friend and i are having problems with target portal by smoothbrain. I am the host of the game. The problem we are having is when i put down a portal my friend can only access it if he goes through the portal. Say he died and i put down a portal down. It doesnt show up for him on the map to go through so he has to boat all the way over to his stuff and then go through the portal. Ive set everything to public in the config. I tried reinstalling it and have had no luck

[dense mesa]

Has your friend installed it ok on his game? If so, both of you can check your game logs to see if there are any error msgs in there the might apply to portal configuration. If he does have the mod ok, make sure he's got the configs set up correctly, too.

[honest willow]

yeah its installed on his game fine. no red in the logs when the game loads. its just he cant go through the portal when i place it down. he has to go through it first.

since im the host the config should take for both of us right

[dense mesa]

Some mods default to enforcing server configs and others don't. You can check your configs to see if there's a server sync option in your configs that needs to be set to "true". If it already is, you can send him a copy of your .cfg file for the mod and he can paste that in his BepInEx > config folder over the one he has in there. Just in case...

Also, does TargetPortal have a 'group' option that you both need to be in or is 'public' enough? I dunno about that...

[honest willow]

i have everything set to public in the config

[atomic dawn]

Isn't that the mod where you can change permission on the portal?

[honest willow]

yeah its the one. i have made sure that everything is set to public.

[atomic dawn]

Do you have the mod installed on server and all clients?

[honest willow]

client we both have it installed and are using thunderstore

[atomic dawn]

Okey, but do you also have it installed on the server?
Otherwise your configs will not sync to his client.

[honest willow]

i dont have a server

[atomic dawn]

Ah okey, so you play together by creating a server via the game?

[honest willow]

we have the mods installed on thunderstore. we load up the game and i send him an invite for him to join. this is the only mod that i have issues with

[honest willow]

yeah the server in the game

[dense mesa]

I guess you could make him an Admin, too. Although you really shouldn't have to do that. But I'm out of ideas, otherwise.

[honest willow]

im not even sure how i would make him an admin

[dense mesa]

Put his Steam64 ID in your adminlist.txt file that's next to your worlds_local folder in the same directory. It's the ID with 17 numeric chars in it.

You can get it from the F2 info window when you're both on the server.

If you do that though, make sure you have good world backups in case he accidently does something crazy with all that power.

[honest willow]

lol im the one that uses the admin powers so i dont have to chop down trees and such

[honest willow]

im not even sure where i would find this at. im not great with software.

[atomic dawn]

So out of box you can set a portal to private or public and if you have the group mod then groups.
Are you making sure that the portal itself is public, even if it says so in the settings?

[dense mesa]

On Windows it's in the folder at: C:\Users\ <username> \AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim

Your File Explorer needs to be set to show hidden files.

[honest willow]

yes i have it all set to public , when hit f5 to bring up the mod menu i make sure its all set to public on the mod menu. awhile back when i was playing with this mod before all of this was added there was never an issue. i took a break from the game came back to it not working now

im gonna try to put him as an admin to see if that fixes the problem

[atomic dawn]

Hmm, do you mean F1?
Or what is a mod menu?

[honest willow]

what ever button it is. its one of the F ones

[atomic dawn]

Ok just making sure 😄
No errors in the log or anything?

[honest willow]

no errors in the log. the mod wouldnt load is there was an error.

[dense mesa]

Good luck with it! I've gotta run. The nurse is coming around with our pills now and she gets really grumpy if we don't lie down for our naps right away. 🙏

[honest willow]

lol

[honest willow]

so unfortunately putting my friend as an admin in my game and making sure that he has the same settings in the mod menu for target portal. im still not having any luck. i moved far enough away in the game and put down a portal and he still couldnt go though it. im not sure what to do at this point

only thing i can think of is to just use another mod for portals

[hexed agate]

Calm as well… no mods and yes it has done this since the first raft and then again with the Karve. Also, my wife who has her own private server has the same issue when she builds any boat.

[dense mesa]

That doesn't seem like normal vanilla activity. Probably one or another of your mods is causing it.

If you equip your hammer while on the boat, you can see if the boat is losing health gradually or just suddenly all at once. But either way that's not normal for boats in calm waters that are not running into rocks or being damaged by a mob or something else that would be obvious.

You can verify whether is a mod problem or not by doing a test run in vanilla game mode. Hopefully, that'll prove it's a mod problem and you can find and fix the mod by trouble shooting the mods.

[dense mesa]

I wish I had a good solution for you but I don't. So, yeah, look at some other portal mods, too. Also, while you over at thunderstore.io in search mode, check out some of the 'tombstone' mods and see if any of those are interesting. And this one especially might be fun to have for both of you: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Smoothbrain/Resurrection/

[onyx ravine]

How come I cant configure azuanticheat .cfg file? Got no way of whitelisting anything

[simple crest]

The video didn't help you out?

[onyx ravine]

Apparently not. Btw is r2modman and thunderstore mod manager not the same?

[dense mesa]

They are not the same, although they are very similar.

[sharp river]

You are out of Fishing Bait is the message i get, I have worms even difftent biome worms and still get this message..anyone have this issue? not sure what mod is causing issue...here is my list 0197dae0-f83a-6a2a-340c-9fbf960b0cde

[dense mesa]

I wouldn't assume that's coming from a mod. Try a test run with no mods. But first remove any items in your extended inventory rows so that you don't lose them without the extended inventory mod.

[sharp river]

Fishing has always works and worked before with most of these mods, are you saying fishing in base game with no mods can be broken in random seeds?

[dense mesa]

Sorry, I can't help you with that. You'll have to wait for someone else to come along. Good luck with it.

[sharp river]

Quiver caused the issue! just unequiped it and all good now!

[surreal hearth]

hey all, I am new to the idea of moding but Id like to know how to do it if anyone is willing to teach me

[simple crest]

Take the Youtube acadamy on Modding Valheim.

[sudden epoch]

hi guys also new in mods
does anybody can help with it ?
or advice who to watch on youtube

Epicloot mod

[restive spruce]

https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Valheim-Unity-Project-Guide most of us start here or one of the modding discords.

[iron hull]

you are probably missing https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ValheimModding/JsonDotNET/

[sudden epoch]

Yeah you right

Everything is working 💪

[amber pawn]

Does anybody know what version of Valheim Valheim+ (v 0.9.16.2) is compatible with

[dense mesa]

A better question you should be asking is why do so many knowledgeable and experienced people in here recommend that you don't use Valheim+.

[amber pawn]

If I had a choice, I wouldn’t be, trust. Unfortunately we’re using Nitrado to host our Xbox server, trying to implement the ServersideQOL mod, but Nitrado requires you to download V+ as an addon for BepIn to function. Uninstall V+ and BepIn stops working. Have V+ installed, and the server is incompatible with Xbox version

[dense mesa]

Yeah, you probably should have mentioned that it's a Nitrado server in the first place. So, you've already asked them and they won't help you? Even though you're paying them for their support? Terrific.

[amber pawn]

Put in a service ticket, was hoping maybe there was a quick fix ala an older version of v+ being compatible

Will just have to wait to see what they say 🙃

[dense mesa]

As far as I can tell, your options are either get them to help you install the server QOL mod without Valheim+, or hope that someone in here with experience with Nitrado knows how you can get it to work yourself.

Other than that you'd need to move the server to some other place to make it work like maybe a different hosting Co. or someone's old PC that could support it.

[restive spruce]

Don't wait on Nitrado support, they are among the worst support there is, most of the time their solution for everything is press the "reset server button" or they tell you to visit their forum and ask their community for help.

ValheimPlus is required by both the server and clients, it's not a "serversideqol".

[dense mesa]

He's talking about https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ArgusMagnus/ServersideQoL/

[restive spruce]

ah, then in his case he should just disable valheim plus, install Bepinex Manually using the FTP and add that to the plugins folder.

[dense mesa]

Yes, he just needs to know how to do that. If he removes Valheim+, BepInEx doesn't work.

[coarse valley]

There's a user that did thst recently, let's see if I can find the messages

Wait, now I'm confused, that was you @amber pawn. Did it not work after all?
#mods-issues message

[dense mesa]

The 'friend with an old PC' option is looking better and better all the time...

[amber pawn]

It’s been such a battle. I gave up for a week or so before coming back to it. So basically, so far:

1. Nitrado will not let you install BepInEx manually. Rather, you can install it, but it won’t do anything
2. Nitrado requires you install V+ bundled with BepIn through their add-on menu for BepIn to actually work properly
3. V+ is incompatible with the current Xbox version
4. You CAN uninstall V+, and it technically WILL keep BepIn installed along with any other plugins, but they will stop functioning

In the case of Argus’ mod, I got to step 4, having uninstalled V+, but enabled QOL mod’s in-game config room before uninstalling V+. Logged onto server, saw that the portal was at spawn, happy happy happy! Played with signs, but nothing changed. Gave up.

Came back today, re-installed everything, edited all the QOL configs directly, uninstalled V+, booted game up. Now in-game, the config room exists, and we can see the settings that I directly messed with have changed (signs are green/true from where I changed them in the .cfg file) BUT, the settings aren’t actually applied to the world as a whole. Mist still exists in mistland, fireplaces are not toggleable, etc.

BepIn’s log stops updating as soon as V+ is uninstalled, which is what makes me believe that for whatever reason, Nitrado makes V+ essential to run mods on their servers. Tried disabling it from V+’s .cfg file, but that didn’t work either.

Sorry for the long post, kind of just ranting at this point. Ultimately I think it’s straight up Nitrado’s fault for being stupid and difficult. I wish I had an old computer to run our own server, but no luck, just a couple of console fellas

[restive spruce]

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

this mod was created for for servers that force V+

[amber pawn]

!

Huge, will try

[restive spruce]

basically you install V+ just like they tell you, then drop that in patchers and it kills V+ from loading.

Install on your server by placing the DLL file into BepInEx/patchers (not plugins)

[amber pawn]

You’re actually a beast, that worked

Was able to get in, QOL mod is working perfectly, all is well, many many many thanks

[restive spruce]

all thanks to Azumatt, it used to be a lot bigger issue that servers forced it on their players, till he and others started to fight back.

[atomic dawn]

Why stay with an abusive host.
Use a host like GPORTAL that gives you 100% freedom.

[eternal ingot]

guys i have a question. So i made a modpack of around a 100 mods a couple of months back it worked all fine on single player (still does), but me and 2 buddies are trying to play it on multiplayer and it crashes out the people joining at always the last second, could the problem be that we arent using a bought server and the host rig is just getting overloaded?

0197ec18-a41e-6946-d0df-9f3be5390654 this is the thunderstore code if anyone wants to look into it if they have the time, if not thanks anyways for reading yall

[simple crest]

Not likely. More that one or more of the 100 mods, requires to be run/have spesific config on all clients. Are the world shared from a client, or on a dedicated private server?

[eternal ingot]

Its shared from a client and i did some modifications in the config of the mods but that carries over on thundetstore after i share it no?

[simple crest]

I don't use Thunderstore mod manager, so I wouldn't know how that works. Maybe others here can assist you with that. But it's good to know that it's a client world that's shared.
What does your Playerlog say when they can't connect?

[eternal ingot]

Im not completely sure i didnt check the playerlog but the mod that usually tells data just doesnt say anything

Ill check and get back to you when me and a buddy can test

They are working rn

And searched it up rn thunderstore does carry over config

[simple crest]

Sure. And also ask them to check the Playerlog. Are they all on Steam?

[eternal ingot]

Yes

[simple crest]

Good.

[eternal ingot]

Yea i wouldnt mod it if someone would be from console or cracked XD, thanks for the help anyways man

[simple crest]

True

[rotund spindle]

im having that whole problem when i try join a friends modded server i get a black screen with the sound of waves in the background, is there a way to figure out which mod is causing problems? any ideas?

[atomic dawn]

Please stop recommending Vortex for Valheim 😄
You're making it difficult for people 😄

Valheim uses Thunderstore and that's it!
Gale, Thunderstore, R2Modman etc.

[restive spruce]

I agree, most other mod authors who have to support their mods agree also.

[simple crest]

Promoting Thunderstore and your preferred mod managers are just fine. Lying and trashing other's work, are not cool, in my opinion.

Valheim mods exist on Nexus, and that's ok. Clearly Thunderstore are carrying the load of the community, since a bunch of mod authors exoduses from Nexus a few years back (understandably so, due to changes in ToS of Nexus).
Dll-files uploaded to Nexus and Thunderstore are identical, so mods can very much be used in both sides managers. (If the mod are updated to work with latest release of Valheim). At least Nexus has a comment section that users and authors can communicate regarding the mod.

Using Vortex isn't for everyone, that is clear. For people that is new to modding Valheim, and have issues that can relate to use of Vortex (and don't know how to use Vortex), moving on to some other manager is very much recommended.

As I see it; If Valheim players have issues with using a mod, or modding in general, and using Vortex, you can simply say "I don't use that manager, so I can't help you. I use r2 and Thunderstore, so I can help you with that".

When was the last time any of you mod authors that exoduses, tested and used Vortex? How many updates to Vortex and the Valheim extension has it been since that time? What extension for Valheim have you tested?

[restive spruce]

The problem that I mostly run into isn't so much that vortex doesn't work, but that it takes quite a bit more effort for it's users to get it working without problems.
Out the box vortex would install mods directly into the game's folder, this is a terrible idea as any time the game would update everything needed deleted and reinstalled - game, mods, sanity..
Vortex can be set to install mods to a different location, but without the user knowing to do it first they run into the above problem.
Vortex pulls bepinex from the offsite sources, the version of bepinex that is updated for valheim is only uploaded to thunderstore, so vortex pulls it from from who knows where..
Dead mods, many authors just abandon nexus, there maybe 4-5 that upload there, but all authors use thunderstore. So for users, they find themselves having to manually add all their mods from thunderstore into vortex other than the 2-3 they may get from nexus that are also on tstore.

I don't hate vortex by any means, I just feel that it puts a lot more work on people who support mods than is needed.

[simple crest]

Good to hear. And I agree with you; If users don't know how to use Vortex, their're at an disadvantage by sticking to Vortex. And might have a better experience with other mod managers.
But if you do know how to handle Vortex, are willing to put in the extra leg work to make it work and prefer not to install yet another game specific mod manager, I think users can choose for them self. But that doesn't mean that authors should support that manager. If a users choose to use Vortex, they might not get help from mod authors. I accept that risk. If others doesn't, they can change over to other managers/do it manually. In my opinion, an author isn't obligated to support everything under the sun.

[atomic dawn]

No one is lying and trashing others works lol.

[simple crest]

Good. Things has improved much since May. I think some of the claims here are still heavy handed, and

Valheim uses Thunderstore and that's it!
are, in my opinion, not helping users that doesn't know the reason for such a claim.

[tall escarp]

Hey, not sure if this is the right channel, but anyone know why my game uses so much more memory than my friends? They use about 4,5gb of RAM playing some modpack but when I try to use the same one it goes up to 9gb and then crashes cause I run out of memory...

This is during startup btw, I don't actually get into the game

[sharp kettle]

First time you load a modded run, it'll take a while, the program stops responding but if you let it work it'll eventually load and every other time after that will be faster.

Program always stops responding for a little while when I launch modded valheim from r2. Don't close the app, let it think and it'll eventually work

[flint vapor]

any reason i get this message while playing modded?

[unique spade]

No, but I dont recommend ever using steam cloud saves for anything. Turn off cloud saves for Valheim and possibly in general for your entire steam library.

[autumn stratus]

steam was down for awhile.

entirety of steam

[unique spade]

There's a good reason not to use cloud saves

[junior monolith]

Did you read the mod's documentation? It has an installation section

[slender basalt]

i didnt manually install the mod

its a thunderstore manifest.json

[junior monolith]

Gotcha, sorry, not familiar with the Thunderstore app. if you check ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Valheim/BepInEx/plugins is there a ValheimRAFT folder inside, or are the plugin's libs scattered throughout that dir?

[slender basalt]

doesnt seem to be that folder there, no

oh wait there is

its just named differently

i should also note i am getting tons of shader errors in the logs

and when i load into the server im playing in a bunch of shit is pink and textureless

[junior monolith]

Thanks! Yeah, looks like thunderstore app is versioning them, which honestly seems like a good practice but breaks where the mod looks for its textures by default. You can either set the real path in the configuration like it says in the log message or rename the folder to drop the version at the end.

It's this config var specifically: https://github.com/zolantris/ValheimMods/blob/main/src/ValheimRAFT/docs/ValheimRAFT_AutoDoc.md#pluginfoldername

[slender basalt]

oh so just renaming the zolantris valheimraft folder should work?

[junior monolith]

Yes, renaming it to zolantris-ValheimRAFT without the version suffix should be sufficient if you don't configure its versioned path explicitly.

[slender basalt]

i am also getting a lot of these: ```Could not load signature of PlanBuild.Blueprints.Components.ToolComponentBase:Player_UpdatePlacement due to: Could not load file or assembly 'MMHOOK_assembly_valheim, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.

as well as ```[Error : Unity Log] Desired shader compiler platform 14 is not available in shader blob

like literally hundreds of those ^

im guessing those shader errors are what cause this stuff

[atomic dawn]

Are you using Vulkan?
If so, that's why

[junior monolith]

Well, whichever mod is throwing the shader compiler error, if you are running their latest version, it's unfortunately not going to be fully functional for you. You'll want to contact the author to ask them to include Apple Metal compilation.

[slender basalt]

no im on mac

so metal

[junior monolith]

It was likely the mod author last compiled the assets on an older version of Unity Editor. I think Metal is enabled by default on newer versions.

[slender basalt]

hasnt it been liek a year since mac support got added

[junior monolith]

Yep, mods are made by members of the community though, and usually for free, and when they have time to work on them. The mod author may not even have known they needed a new build to support macOS, or stopped playing the game themselves before macOS support came out. You will probably want to pinpoint which mod it is and let the author know. If they've open-sourced it you might be able to build it yourself with an appropriate msbuild+CLI toolchain and an appropriate Unity Editor version.

[unique spade]

Each time a mod author starts a new project they need to manually change the platforms and rendering APIs their project builds for. It's often overlooked.

[slender basalt]

i have no experience with any kind of programming tbh

if i did i would do it myself

how do i even know what mods are giving the shader errors

[atomic dawn]

You need to contact the author and ask him to add Mac support.

[junior monolith]

Process of elimination, mostly, but if you look through the sub-folders of ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Valheim/BepInEx/plugins you can likely exclude ones that only have a .dll file, readme, and json. Shader assets will usually use other file extensions if I recall.

If the message ends with "in shader …" and the shader name is relevant to one of the mods, that'll be a good hint.

[junior monolith]

For this one, I'm not sure. Do you have anything in ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Valheim/BepInEx/patchers?

[slender basalt]

nope

You might consider copying or moving the HookGenPatcher dir from the plugins dir to patchers and see if that helps with the MMHOOK error. I don't know the Thunderstore app well enough to know how to play nicely with it

You are running a hefty list of plugins. I would be surprised to find they all work in latest Valheim in Windows even. Hopefully these get you further along though

[slender basalt]

they 100% work on windows

[blazing imp]

Hello all, I'm new to server hosting and am trying to set up some automation for a modded dedicated server using an extra pc at home. Modpack is up and running on the server. Currently using Thunderstore to launch Valheim Dedicated Server steam tool with all mods and server side configs. I am able to connect and play it from a client on another machine. My current issue is trying to find a way to set up a daily restart. The only script info I can find for a windows system would taskkill and reboot the vanilla steam tool server, not with all mods/configs from Thunderstore as I understand it. If anyone has a recommendation on how to set this up it would be appreciated, bonus points for any program/script that will save backups of the world. Surfing the web I only find info on doing this for unmodded headless dedicated servers or paid 3rd party server hosts that have these features built into their GUI's.

[slender basalt]

did that

gave this

not sure if its the same shit

[junior monolith]

Looks like it, sorry. :/ You can probably put it back where it was if that move didn't help.

[slender basalt]

yep

[junior monolith]

If you have some patience to try some other things… I just don't know if BepInEx will do the patcher thing with that plugins dir layout. Inside of the ValheimModding-HookGenPatcher-0.0.4 dir, there is a patchers dir, and you could copy the contents of that into ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Valheim/BepInEx/patchers, slightly different than what you tried before and you would copy the contents of ValheimModding-HookGenPatcher-0.0.4/config into ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Valheim/BepInEx/config. I'm just shooting in the dark here.

Basically ValheimModding-HookGenPatcher is what should be generating the MMHOOK thing that PlanBuild looks for.

[slender basalt]

will try it later and let u know

[slender basalt]

oddly enough it auto regenerated the folder when i launched the game with the modpack

when i went back the folder was magically there again so i had a copy of the same folder in both patchers and plugins

this error is still here ig the name isnt correct still

[unkempt cradle]

Try removing ValheimModding-HookGenPatcher and use CATALYSTC-AutoHookGenPatcher_by_Hamunii_Valheim_Publish

[slender basalt]

will i still be able to join the same servers

[junior monolith]

if your mod manager renamed the folder back, you may just have to set the config var to point to the versioned folder name

[slender basalt]

didnt even rename it

just created it out of thin air

[south bronze]

Hey.. I’m not sure if this is the right place for my question—if not, feel free to delete it. I’m looking for a roof end piece and was wondering if anyone knows a mod for it?

[hollow iris]

Hey everyone not sure if this is the correct place for my question. The gizmo mod used to have a way to fly around and place pieces in hard to reach places with out moving the character. Any one know what the hotkey for that is?

[unkempt cradle]

b

[unkempt cradle]

@hollow iris oh sorry, gizmo and buildcameraCHE are different mods, b is the default for BCCHE

gizmo doesnt do freecam, BCCHE does

[viral niche]

how do i turn off this? it's part of azuantiarthritic carfting mod, i accidentally clicked on +

[tough flame]

hey all, I'm sure this has been asked before. I took a break from playing valheim, and now r2modman will not launch my modded valheim. It runs just fine if I launch vanilla from steam. Any recommendations? Should I uninstall r2modman and start over?

[simple crest]

You need to verify that your mods are updated to work with BogWitch update.

[spiral shadow]

hello I have a dedicated server to play with friends. If I wanna add a mod that adds weapons like "Warfare" or armor. Does it work on serverside? or my friends also need to install that mod

[sacred orchid]

Content mods like that are always required on all of the clients, or you risk having disappearing armor/weapons etc

[spiral shadow]

thanks!

[civic iris]

Anyway to get the old ocean music back with the Odin ship plus mod?

[atomic dawn]

Only from the author.

[civic iris]

Damn. Okay

[merry prawn]

why do i keep getting inf loading screen

[simple crest]

I guess you created a new world? If you look at the BepInEx console you'll see the engine is still generating the world. Remember that you can "pause" the engine, by pressing space in this window, so keep that in mind 🙂

[mossy sedge]

what's the name of the mod that lets you click a button and it stores everything in nearby containers?

I thought it was azucrafyboxes or lazyvikings but it's not

I think it's this, but I don't see any config for it in bepinex manager, even though I have it installed and enabled

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Goldenrevolver/Quick_Stack_Store_Sort_Trash_Restock/

[simple crest]

Using the same mod and version; Config is generated and are in the Config Manager.
No problem.

[mossy sedge]

made a new profile > new char > new world. It's not showing at all in the modlist:

[simple crest]

Don't trust your mod manager to tell you if a mod is install or not. Check the logs / BepInEx console your self.

[shut marten]

I am looking at using the "Equipment and Quick Slots" mod. We have a G-Portal server. Does everyone need to have this installed to play together?

[simple crest]

No. But only the client using the mod, will see the changes the mod brings to the game.

[shut marten]

Thank you. I am finding it somewhat difficult to figure out what's client side and what needs to be uploaded to the server.

[shut marten]

For example the plant all food mods

[simple crest]

99% of all Valheim mods are client side. One of the few advanteges to have a mod on Server, is that some mods (when on server) forces the same config and clients without the mod, aren't able to join the server

ServerSideQoL are one of the few Server Side only mods, that will also allow xbox users to join the server, and have benefits of the changes SSQoL brings

[shut marten]

Thank you for taking the time to explain. I really appreciate it. 👍🏻

[desert sedge]

I can't seem to find the config option in Valheim Plus to make monsters instantly despawn after death (rather than the few seconds waiting for a 'poof')... am I thinking of a different mod that allows this or am I just blind?

[tough flame]

the last time I played was after the bog witch update and they did work. Maybe it was an update after..

[woven ginkgo]

hello i am honestly unsure if this is a mod related issue or not but can anyone tell me why this is happening

i cant move says i have zero health but im not dead

[simple crest]

4 updates since BogWitch, so you might benefit going over your mods and check.

[autumn stratus]

It would be a mod issue, and one of them erroring. View your BepInEx/LogOutput.log file for more information. Or have it happen again and view the BepInEx console window that launches next to the game.

[dense mesa]

You may be thinking of this mod: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/TrueInstantLootDrop/

[strong pendant]

I need help, I heard its common and to ignore it, but my server fail to start

[dense mesa]

The Fallback handler msgs. are not generally significant and are pretty normal. You'll likely need to look elsewhere for the reason your server isn't starting up.

For instance, look further down in the log file for msgs not included above and marked Error and are not about 'shader' issues. The shader msgs are normal as well.

Provide more information about your server here. Is it on a separate PC at your home or rented from a hosting Co. If at home, it appears to be running on Linux, is that correct? And how do you know that the server isn't actually starting up?

You can try starting the server without mods and see if that's the problem, too.

[merry prawn]

uhhhhh

oh no

im going to try making a new modpack with the same/similar mods and see if that helps and im going to also reinstall the game on a different drive as well

[distant star]

My mods arent working. I use Thunderstore and they have been working but when I logged on today my hammer for mods arent working, my dirtyhoe mod isnt working, and my stacksize mod isnt workin. they all run through Jotunn so can anyone help?? This all happened after I updated one mod (OdinsArchitech) I can VC and screen share, DM, or just reply here.

[runic isle]

Try installing this mod and see if that clears it up: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/?q=jotunn&ordering=last-updated&section=mods

[unkempt cradle]

lol

[distant star]

I've had this installed since the beginning

[unkempt cradle]

i have to assume its jotunn they are recommending

becasue its the last-updated page, and could be different 5 seconds from now

but you have given us almost nothing to go on, so helping without asking a bunch of questions i shouldnmt need to ask isnt at the top of my list of things id prefer to be doing..... maybe start by describing your setup

[restive spruce]

still having that issue? you using r2modman or what not?

[stray thicket]

r2modman works well for me?

[stray thicket]

just have to click on "Run Modded" for it to work

[somber ingot]

For me, the problem was FPSPlus — it freezes during world creation, but after the world is created, you can enable it without any issues.

[fallow burrow]

any mods out there that let multiple people use debugmode?

[woven ginkgo]

an1 know a fix for this my meat has been cooking for 20 mins and the ui mod i have says it should be taking 1 minute

[dire sage]

Hi guys, anyone having trouble launching r2modman valheim? there was a mini valheim update yerterday, now my game says my version is incompatible when i launch in modded mode

[simple crest]

The game has not been updated. Valheim regularly download shader-files.

[dense mesa]

There may be info in your player log as to what version it's referring to.

[simple crest]

You need ServerDevCommands installed on clients to be able for clients visting others worlds / servers, using devcommands. For some of the commands, the ServerDevCommands needs to be installed on the host/server as well.

[fallow burrow]

Is that a mod, or do they just need to enable dev commands through steam and then I give permission on the server side?

[simple crest]

It's a mod on Thunderstore and Nexus. And yes, host must allow admin access in the Allowlist.txt

[fallow burrow]

Awesome thanks!

[junior monolith]

If your goal is to make it easy for folks to build stuff, you could also consider the Hammer gameplay preset, which can be used without mods. It effectively sets NoBuildCost, PassiveMobs, and EventRate 0. It does not enable any kind of flying though, and will disable resource drops from downed enemies or hammer deconstructions.

[fallow burrow]

Is that a vanilla game preset?

[junior monolith]

Yep

An admin player can setworldpreset Hammer in the console without mods. Note that setting a preset will wipe any previously set preset, world modifiers, or server config global keys.
To restore normal gameplay afterwards, the admin can setworldpreset Default

[ornate wolf]

This is a specific issue in Southsil armor. If you search the config very hard, you will stumble across typos. You can change the recipes that have the typos but you can't change the hard encoded typo.

[finite haven]

anyone know why this keep happening ?

only using these

[pseudo thorn]

try another mods

if there any

[finite haven]

i deleted all of the mods you pointed and kept the no problem mods

still the same unforuntly

[autumn stratus]

Has nothing to do with my mods you highlighted.

[autumn stratus]

Do a “resetbinds” command in the console of your game.

[finite haven]

how to do that ?

just write /resetbinds ?

[unique spade]

I think there is a hotkey for resetting all binds but not sure if they changed that because it was problematic. Try pressing F9 in game.

[finite haven]

doesnt work

it change the controller or something like tha

[compact parcel]

Can i get mods on xbox one?

[simple crest]

No. No console can run client side mods. But if you have your world on a dedicated server, that server can run ServerSideQoL, and Xbox players can benefit from those changes.

[compact parcel]

Oh. Oke

[tame kraken]

hello, i've recently started playing Valheim again after a few years and remembered i'm in this server

is there a problem with plan build? i tried placing a cottage in my local server and basically had to delete my server because it created a huge bubble thing around the cottage and every time i'd get close to it, i ended up under water and couldn't get out of it... i thought i had updated all the mods

[outer kelp]

If im not mistaken on a dedicated server, everyone has to have the same mods as the owner in order for them to work. If you're hosting from your PC and not a dedicated server youre the only one that needs them downloaded.

[noble grove]

Has anyone ever noticed mods affecting fish spawns? I've walked like 1000m of plain shoreline, and can't find a single grouper

[simple crest]

No. But in my experience, Grouper are a bit far out from shore in Plains. So sailing along the shore, might give you better results.

[raw rune]

im using the magicplugin mod and i used one of the summon totems. how do i unsummon it? i can't find anything online that tells me how to do it

[urban beacon]

Hello I want to be able to give fly mode to my GF who plays in my server so she can build my roof :D. I heard that mods are able to do this, can someone maybe hint to which mod i should look into :)? Also: can I use those mods in my (self hosted , like I just start the server) own server?

[atomic dawn]

ServerDevCommands and make her an admin.

[verbal dust]

I have a question regarding Azumatt's FirstPersonMode... I'm trying to use it on a dedicated server, and it mostly works fine, but the only issue is that the arms don't move out of the way when I aim my bow, making shooting downward almost impossible. Anyone know why this aspect of the mod seems to be broken? Do I need to have the mod installed server-side as well?

[gilded stone]

alltameabaletamingoverhaul taming tools reipce, etc. not appearing in full upgraded workbench anyone know if I missed something?

[unkempt cradle]

you probably just want a build cam, so your POV can move independently of your avatar... serverdevcommands lets yoou fly your avatar, but that sucks becasue its often in the way...and they need admin to do it

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/Build_Camera_Custom_Hammers_Edition/

[unkempt cradle]

probably missing an ingredient you havent touched yet
and be aware that that mods require a number of tames to be in proximity to the workbench ...as an ingredient in the recipe

intall VNEI mod and look it up ingame

[gilded stone]

I have the required/complete mats to create the tamingtool but still not showing I just used debugmode just to spawn it

[novel glen]

anyone know why the options for Badger's Valheim Skies wouldn't appear?

[urban beacon]

thanks for the reply but actually she/we want to be able to build high up (roof) and therefor she needs to fly, not just look 🙂 Unless that Buold Cam makes it possible to place objects independently from where you're standing.

[unkempt cradle]

it does

[urban beacon]

Just read the readme and you're right, amazing! I'm gonna try to install the mod after work, thank you!

[simple crest]

I use the same mod, and it works well. Just make sure you understand the config file, so you know what else the mod brings to the client running the mod. It can be a bit "cheaty" for some players 🙂

[unkempt cradle]

@urban beacon yeah, the default settings are really a creative mode thing, so much that they will prevent raids to some degree due ot the massive effect. Try settings more like this:

[urban beacon]

good to know because we just want to build and not be raided and such, so it's not a problem! We have 2 saves/worlds, one for building just cool stuff or trying out new parts we discover in our "real save"! Like yesterday we beat that swamp guy and now we have STONE WALLS 😍 so we wanna build in our "creative server" with stone, figure out what works and not, then after go to our real save and apply what we learn 😄

I just realized I over shared about what we want, sorry if to long text! I'm just excite 🙂 thank you for the help again everyone and sorry for spelling mistakes (non English speaker) 💪

OH one more Q: does Host only have to download mod? Or everyone that joins?

[simple crest]

This mod only work for the client that has it loaded, but if installed on server/host it will prevent others that don't have it, to be able to join. It's all in the description page of the mod.

[urban beacon]

Hmm I'm not tech knowledgeable, if I "start server, add password" and my GF joins (we both have the mod on our pc installed via Vortex) does it work for her too?

I see "installed on server" but I'm unsure what definition of server is.. Am I the server if I start the game with a pass code? Or do I need to buy "server" somewhere?

I'm not understanding what is server/host difference

[grim granite]

Hi can Someone help me with this?

[restive spruce]

This is a GPU crash, or rather Desktop Window Manager that is responsible for rendering Windows Desktop and other visual things.

it's pretty much a GPU or System Out of Memory error.

idk, try lowering graphic settings or reduce things that might stress your gpu

[simple crest]

Not sure if this mod count Host (as you describe) as server. Test, and see what you can figure out 🙂 If both have the mod enabled, all should be good.

[lavish turtle]

Hello, im playing with a friend and we're trying to mod the game ( using ThunderStore ).
I already played with those mods like 6 months ago and all worked perfectly,

But, now, with another friend in another game, we're having an issue :

All works good for me, but when he join he can't see everything (like the cart is invisible for him), and when he use boats, it bugs it and make it unusable (we can't interract with it or destroy it anymore); some monsters may freeze like this too, making the game unplayable.

Do anyone may know where the issue come from, how to fix it ?
-# We tried to disable mods 1 by 1, but we didn't found a mod that blocks US or anything

Thanks you guys 🙏

[simple crest]

Verify every mod your running that they are updated to work with latest release of Valheim.

Second place I would look, is the logs of each client

[lavish turtle]

how can I check this ?

[simple crest]

Check each mod page

[lavish turtle]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Tekla/AutoRepair/versions/

I mean, this mod is old but there is no reason for it to not work, and i don't know where in the page I can find informations about compatibility

Sorry if I look lost about it ( cuz I am kinda ) xD

[simple crest]

I don't use that mod, so I wouldn't know if it would work or not.

[sacred orchid]

Teklas has some issues, try this one, its actually maintained https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ComfyMods/ComfyAutoRepair/

[lavish turtle]

by any chance do you know any issues about the mod list i've showed in screen before ?

[sacred orchid]

I think.... almost all of those are at least partially broken 😅

Azu's two should be fine.

If you want infinite torches I would use https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/TastyChickenLegs/NoSmokeStayLit/

Azu's WnT patches can do the integrity and rain damage stuff which I assume is what infinite build is for https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/AzuWearNTearPatches/

I'd also recommend either https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Goldenrevolver/Quick_Stack_Store_Sort_Trash_Restock/ or
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/AAA_Crafting/ instead of the smart container mods you have which are very outdated.

for no/minimal stamina cost for building stuff https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Searica/ToolTweaks/

For mass farming the one you have might work- if it has issues use a more recently updated one

[lavish turtle]

Thanks alot for your answer !
I'll try all that with my friend when he will be avaiable ❤️

[sacred orchid]

One thing you might consider is once you've got your new mod profile setup and tested- you can actually share all of the mods/configs easily using the export profile as code, your friends would then just need to import the profile and they will have all of the same mods/configs, which can help reduce issues where something doesn't work for everyone.

settings -> export profile as code (copy)

your friends then hit new profile (from code) and paste in the code

[lavish turtle]

That's how we shared yes, ( we had issue even with just default configs )

[sacred orchid]

yeah thats no fun, well hopefully it works better this time!

[shadow surge]

hey im trying to host a server with the steam tool but the moment i add the mods it doesnt generate the world files. it works in singleplayer using r2modman but when i add it to the plugins folders in the dedicated server it doesnt work at all. i understand there might be issues with the mods running in a no gui environment but it works perfectly in singleplayer so maybe theres something i can do without removing all the important mods (besides hosting it in game obviously)

[unkempt cradle]

@shadow surge maybe try generate the world in a local gui session and then copy the map files to the server

chancesa re you just arent defining where the user configs are on the dedicated

-savedir /home/$USER/.config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim or whatever equiv your OS expects

which in my case means the map is to be put into /home/user/.config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim/worlds_local/<mapname>.fwl (and <mapname>.db)

[shadow surge]

thx for the reply. i tried that too at some point but it still said the world gen queue was null (it said something like that) which crashed even though i alr had it generated. i got it working now by removing epicjewelry which is an addon to the jewel crafting mod that seems to work in client but not on the server. i mean its not that bad everything else seems to work even the base jewelry mod so ill just leave it like that

[dull star]

Anyone know whats happening here? Iv Re-installed both the game and mod managers and the issue continues. Only mod currently downloaded is the BepInEx one.

[atomic dawn]

Stop using Nexus/Vortex and instead use Thunderstore and like r2modman.

[dull star]

I tried this after and you couldn't be more correct, it works perfectly now, thanks!

[simple crest]

Modded Valheim did work, regardless of the error msg generated from this VortexWorld.dll. It's just telling you that that specific dll wouldn't load properly. Edit the extension plugin in Vortex, removes the msg.

[delicate cove]

So this is my friend and i's first time modding Valheim and we've run into a problem: While the mods work perfectly fine in singleplayer for both of us, neither of us can connect if we try to play multiplayer. Crossplay has been disabled, we just get the "failed to connect" error before the password screen, while we can connect just fine through vanilla.

We do have the same mods, with the default configs for everything and loaded in the same order through R2modman:
BepInExPack_Valheim v5.4.2202 by denikson
Sailing v1.1.7 by Smoothbrain
TorchesEternal v0.2.0 by Xenofell
SpeedyPaths v1.0.8 by Nextek
BuildableBossStones v1.1.0 by RustyMods
Official_BepInEx_ConfigurationManager v18.4.1 by Azumatt
DeezMistyBalls v1.0.6 by Azumatt
PlantEverything v1.19.1 by Advize

Would anyone know what might be the solution here?

[simple crest]

What does the playerlog on both clients give as explanation for "failed to connect"?
Does this affect both of you, regardless of who is the host of a world?
Does it happen with new world/characters?

[stone elk]

Anyone use worldmap on a Dedicated server?

I've tried connecting to the maps address, but I'm unable to.

[mossy sedge]

I want to use the odinhorse mod but it says I need to "regenerate the .cfg file". What does this mean? I deleted the config file in the main game folder

I don't see it being regenerated when I start the game

[mossy sedge]

nm I am sseeing horses so I guess I'm good

[restive spruce]

heh, regenerate the cfg, just means delete it and let it create itself, so you're good. it recreated itself somewhere in the config folder

[swift arrow]

I am trying to set up a server with mods for me and my children to play. I set up the server and my own account with r2modman. It all works. I can start the server, join the server, mods work.
My kids have steam decks, which run Linux, and whenever I try to launch the modded app through r2modman, the game lights up green on steam for a second then ends. The game doesn’t launch. Nothing.

[restive spruce]

https://www.reddit.com/r/valheim/comments/1e1ioxf/modded_valheim_on_steam_deck/ did this work?

I mean, you may have to switch to Proton 8.0-5 or Experimental, those versions are probably more reliable with modding.

or use the native linux build

the other option would be to manually mod the game and not use r2modman on steamdeck

[unkempt cradle]

idk, but maybe try:

also potentially, but probably not, relevant https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Omnivore/OmnivoreModManager/

[ornate wolf]

Gravebears right, Proton Experimental is probably easiest route and most reliable. I have a guide made specifically for this type of scenerio. Most cases you have to force as proton experimental, launch it at least once, then quit, then the mods will work. Verified this works on steamdeck, Arch Linux, and my Fedora VM.

[regal drift]

Using EpicMMOSystem, one person is able to recieve XP from red mobs while it is turned off/server locked. Would having him clear his mod cache fix this? apologies, still new to troubleshooting

[mossy sedge]

is there a mod that let's you select multiple build pieces and delete?

and also get the materials back

[ornate wolf]

Many configs that sync I was able to break by changing them right before starting / logging into the game. It would trick the server. Maybe try having client side regenerate first to see if its that.

Hi everyone, trying to fiddle around with mods, and I cant seem to get a grasp, when ever I add a mod from nexus, my whole game stops working, either cant choose my character or cant actually go into my save, any tips?
I only have :
ValheimPlus Vortex
Better UI
Compass
and the default BepInExPack installed

[simple crest]

First; Don't start your modding journey with ValheimPlus. It will ruin you.
Make sure the mods you're using are updated to work with the BogWitch update of Valheim. Also look at Thunderstore.io

[formal fossil]

What do you mean by it will ruin me ?

[simple crest]

All the frustration it will cause you.

[sacred orchid]

Don't use nexus, use thunderstore with R2 or Gale.

You'll have to delete/clean out your valheim install to get the broken stuff Vortex installs removed.

There is a bit on the wiki about modding dedicated to that answer because this happens so often https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Client-Troubleshooting#using-vortex

[simple crest]

Not sure that would be necessary if the issues are only caused by outdated mods.

[sacred orchid]

That's the problem, the mod issues with Vortex arnt caused by outdated mods. They are caused by using Vortex. Its default deployment includes broken mod loaders which need to then be manually removed. So either you know exactly what you are doing, or you just removal it all and re-download, the latter being a lot easier for people to follow

[formal fossil]

Sorry for answering so late to the party, would stop managing the game from vortex, plus uninstalling the game on steam and reinstalling it do the trick ?

[sacred orchid]

You would need to go and actually delete your game and then re-download. Steam won't remove extra files, which will leave the old files from Vortex.

Easy way to do so is right click on the game entry in steam, hit manage, browse local files and delete everything in the folder it opens

[stone elk]

Anyone have success setting up ServerQoL plug-in on a dedicated server?

I installed the plug-in, had it generate a .cfg file and tried to modify it correctly to what I wanted, however it didn't seem like any of the changes went through?

I saw the Enable/disable boolean, any help would be greatly appreciated

[coarse valley]

Did you restart the server after modifying the config? The config is not reloaded automatically when the file is changed.

And did you install BepInEx from thunderstore? Other versions (e.g. from github) won't work

[stone elk]

I am using Dathost, which shows an option to "turn on" BepinEx, doing so seems to produce the correct files for the plug-in but I'm still not sure.

I'm pretty certain I restarted the server I setting up the .cfg file but I can't say for certain.

From what I'm gathering, it should work then, no? Maybe I missed something in the original setup, I will try again tonight.

I'm at work right now, otherwise I could give more accurate info.

[coarse valley]

I've no experience with dathost, but it sounds like you set it up correctly. There were 2 or 3 people recently which had to uninstall and reinstall the mod to make it work. Can't say what the problem was, but that is worth a try.

If it still does not work then, send the BepInEx/LogOutput.log file (here or dm me)

[stone elk]

I appreciate it! Dumb question, but seeing your username I feel like I'm in good hands! I'll report back later on. Thanks again.

[simple crest]

Well, for starters, if @formal fossil downloaded those mods from Nexus, they will be outdated. I would start with that, before going scorch earth on the game folder.

[stone elk]

Here is the current log file, I deleted the previously installed folders and reset everything up, configuring the .cfg file how I want, I haven't been in game yet to see if anything applied though.

Looking through it myself, I see only one instance of a configuration not being loaded (due to my error as a user)

Also, the setting "Disable/Enable the entire mode" Do I leave that to true or?

English isn't my native language so I might be over thinking this

[coarse valley]

Enabled should be true.

The logs seem to be fine. If it still does not work, try setting DiagnosticLogs = true and then try again and then send the logs again

[stone elk]

Thanks again! I'll report back once I've done so

[stone elk]

Here is the new Log file, with the new settings it still appears as though the plug-in is not working, not too sure where to go from here.

Well, the container auto sort appears to work, but not the infinite building stamina. Not too sure about other parts of the plug-in.

[coarse valley]

ah, it's likely that this is just a documentation issue. Infinite building/farming/mining/etc. won't stop your stamina from being drained. It will let your stamina go to almost zero and then replenish just enough for the next action. So you can keep building/farming/etc. indefinetely, but you'll still have low stamina and leave you vulnerable when enemies show up

[stone elk]

Thanks so much, it appears to be working as intended then

[coarse valley]

I really need to start documenting the features better xD

[stone elk]

I'm just happy it works! Was so worried about rain taking out our builds while I'm away, this is a life saver.

Thanks again for all the support, seems like everything is working!

[coarse valley]

Nice 😊

But just so you know, even without mods, buildings won't go below 50% health from rain

[magic spruce]

Also, if nobody is in the area the world simulation pauses. So rain only rains on you 😁

[lavish turtle]

Hello, is there any updated mod to modify wisplight range + being able to equip it with megingjord at same time ?

[stone elk]

Looking back, I'm curious if the plug-in was working the entire time 😅

Anyone use plant everything? I'm playing with a group of friends who are on Xbox, so no client mods for them. Could I just install the mod on my own client and the server still?

[dense mesa]

Looking through the mod's web page instructions, it appears that you can install it on your game and 'should' install it on the server, although that's not 'required'. And, players without the mod should be able to join when the mod's installed on the server.

I haven't personally tested that but it's pretty plain that's the way it works just from reading the instructions.

[stone elk]

Exactly, I will have some issues installing it because I'm playing on Steam Deck, but I'm certain I can get it working.

[dense mesa]

Hopefully, you'll get past the issues without too much trouble. You can search for 'steamdeck' in here to find the info you'll need, if you get stuck.

[restive spruce]

yeah Soloredis shared the guide he made:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QlkXfkZq68

[ornate wolf]

So yeah, steam deck is arch based so just download the .pacman from github and install with ```sudo pacman -U r2modman-3.2.3.pacman

Normally stuff is -S to install on Arch base but trust me this is what will install it. Edit: it probably will work with the app image too but I found it to be less problematic installing r2.

[lucid lichen]

how do i unload the mods

[autumn stratus]

Do the opposite of what you did to install them.

[fluid blade]

Ok I have the discord connector but we wanted to turn it on to where the shout shows in discord.. Am I setting something wrong with the bot I made or is it the log I need to look at?

[atomic dawn]

You need to create a webhook for the channel you want it to be in and then add that webhook in the config file.

[fluid blade]

I have had the connector set for almost 5 or more months it works fine... It's just the logs arent submitting the shouts in game

[ornate wolf]

Is it just missing shouts in game but has everything else? If so do you have discordconnecter_client on all client sides? The mod was split into two mods.

[fluid blade]

Kinda, it won't do the leaderboard, and some other things. Should I pull the mod then reinstall it?

[ornate wolf]

For clarification, how do you have those mods installed? Do you have both of those on the server? Or just DiscordConnector.

[fluid blade]

I just have 1 I believe, I'm not gone right now to do a check. Can I DM you when I get home and you can help me?

[ornate wolf]

If you just have DiscordConnector on the server and not DiscordConnector_Client additionally on the server, that part should be fine. The way to move forward would be to, verify that you have discordconnector_client on all your client(s). If you already do, then you would proceed to checking the servers output.log & clients. I am willing to look at those output.logs but its probably best to keep the conversation in the public discord.

[fluid blade]

Ok ill take a look see what I see

[magic spruce]

i think the ExtraSlots mod lets you equip multiple utility items at once... not sure though, i thought i saw that option

[spiral linden]

Anyone with experience with Better Continents and adjusting world size that I may ask a couple of questions.
As of 3 hours later, still looking for help x)

[restive spruce]

pretty sure the author lists a discord server for questions about that mod

[spiral linden]

Ah, must've missed. Thanks i'll look at that

[signal canyon]

what in gods name is causing this? using R2ModMan

[atomic dawn]

Need log in order to help.

[simple crest]

Same issue?
#mods-discussion message

[dense mesa]

One of your mods is out of date and broken. Maybe you can pin it down by knowing what mod you added when it started throwing those errors. Or you can do this to trouble shoot:

"Join a Valheim modding Discord (https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Modding-Discords) and drop your log from BepInEx/LogOutput.log into a help channel. The log bot will give you a list of depreciated mods that could be the culprit"

@iron hull posted that earlier. It's really good advice.

[ornate wolf]

Azudev mod often can help diagnose what mod is the problem. It will help call out what mod sometimes by specifying what object was not registered to znet. This happens when a prefab is not coded in. Symptoms often include, vfx only you can see but players around you cannot, or sfx you can hear but others don't ect.

[unkempt cradle]

how can i make bepinex STFU and stop spamming crap that interferes with any scripting that happens after it is initiated?
I've tried going full-totalitarian on bepinex.cfg but i'm still getting this grabage that then prevents steam://rungameid from working

so instead of nicely launching the game i get this bs:

[novel glen]

anyone know why hd skies is showing up like this

[wheat basin]

Hi folks,
I've installed Bepinex, checked up it's working (LogOutput being written) but mods themselves (in plugins folder) aren't loading.
Am I missing something?

[fluid spruce]

Are they manually loaded?

[wheat basin]

Yes, I manually copied them

Here's my plugin folder.

[fluid spruce]

I use r2modmsn so i stopped manually uploading them

[wheat basin]

Thanks, I'll try it

It worked, thanks!

[wheat basin]

Have you tried to install HD textures form Nexus?
Managed it.

[fluid spruce]

I use thunderstore as no sign in required

[valid halo]

Can anyone recommend any good storage mods that actually work? theres 2 versions of the drawers mod and both seem 2 have fatal flaws that have me damm near depressed

[fluid spruce]

What do you mean? Different containers? Or moving mats around?

[untold sandal]

Good day fellas, anyone know how to fix this? I'm trying to install valheim +

[unkempt cradle]

try missingPieces
has a plain large boxy drawer, stacks beautifully, has a label &apparently its possible to put emojis on it, but idk

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/BentoG/MissingPieces/

[simple crest]

Don't use Valheim+

[magic spruce]

Try to not install Valheim+, that will solve 99% of your errors. Instead use
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/

[untold sandal]

thanks, will try

[magic spruce]

btw, since we share a common name: here is a modpack that i put together that is a complete set of mods that alters the game but keeps it close to vanilla more - or - less. You may enjoy it. You can install it easliy by installing Gale or R2 mod manager. Both are available for download via Thunderstore.
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ZenDragon/ZENHEIM/

[untold sandal]

Thanks, Zen. You rock

funny enough, Zen is my actual first name 😅

[mighty arrow]

Is there a way to make modded valheim open by default when I open it through steam?
I use thunderstore
nvm I figured out how to use the launch parameters

[jagged nimbus]

@pliant inlet just tried the latest upload of https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1536 and it seems to still work for me, though maybe that varies since that version is from last december

[pliant inlet]

thank you very much! that one is working indeed

[jagged nimbus]

glad i could help!~

[pliant inlet]

and it does show map by map stuff which i can indeed delete. this is perfect ❤️

[frigid zealot]

Hi! Vortex somehow doesn't want to install BepinEx - 5.4.2332, has anyone faced the same issue?

[restive spruce]

Everyone

[dense mesa]

Vortex and Nexusmods don't work well for Valheim. You need to switch to thunderstore.io and use their r2modman mod manager or the Gale mod manager.

You can search in here for 'vortex' or 'nexusmods' and get a feel for the history of their problems with the Valheim game. You really need to just delete your current Valheim directory and reinstall it from Steam.

[restive spruce]

I too suggest R2modman or Gale mod manager as well as using mods on Thunderstore.

There are a few authors who use Nexus, but most all of us use Thunderstore for mods so the selection is better.

[frigid zealot]

Okay, I'll try

[dense mesa]

It'll be well worth the effort. And you can always get help in here when and if you need it.

[frigid zealot]

Can I import all my mods with it's saves? or how do I call it, I just have stuff in Item drawers for example

Is there a proper guide that I should follow or ?

[dense mesa]

All those things are saved elsewhere and won't be deleted when you delete your Valheim directory. They're saved in the same folder under AppData as your world files and character files are.

[frigid zealot]

So I just manually move all my mods here right?

[dense mesa]

Best would be to re-install the Valheim game from Steam and then use one of the mod managers we mentioned to re-download and install the mods you want all over again from scratch. If you have personalized .cfg file for one or another of your mods, you can copy those somewhere else before you delete Valheim and then re-use them in the new installation once that's ready.

[frigid zealot]

Okay, big thanks!

[dense mesa]

You're very welcome. Good luck with it and have fun!

[simple crest]

I just manually updated the plug-in with the new bepinex files, restartet Vortex, and all is good.

i cant tell who the offender is

I've heard that using SmoothSave can cause this when using it on a client that is not the world host

[autumn stratus]

Yep. Correct.

[signal canyon]

ill remove that one and give it a go, thanks

[slender nexus]

Anyone know how to clean up the drops from epic loot on my server

been noticing lag and some game breaking stuff and thought maybe its from that

[dense mesa]

IIRC, admins have a removedrops command they can use for an area clean up. Trash left in the world auto deletes after some period of time like 2 game days or something.

More importantly, it's unlikely the trash is causing your lag and sync problems. It's more likely a comm issue with one of the players. Or, if you 're using -crossplay, then could be lag in the MS playfab network relay stations or the link to/from them for the server or one or another of the players. Just one player's lag affects everyone.

[low bay]

how can i activate a mod, i just downloaded one for brigthness but i dont know how to activate it ingame, pls help

[simple crest]

What did the mod page tell you?

[violet laurel]

is there another mod to replace teleport everything? i have it configed to allow ores and it still wont let me

[dense mesa]

You don't need a mod to do that. Just use console command ** setkey TeleportAll** and you're good.

[sharp trout]

anyone know a good mining mod, veinmine seems to be decprecated.

[dense mesa]

You should search for them at thunderstore.io See what comes up and choose a current one that looks good to you.

[sharp trout]

yeah all i see is top mining, veinmine was the goat

[coral ember]

if you are looking for 1 click mine everything I dont think theres anything else. for mining that scales with skills there is impactfulskills

[sharp trout]

alright ty

[autumn stratus]

Or just use Mining by SmoothBrain

[violet laurel]

is there a mod that makes it so maps updat and show buildings?

[magic spruce]

what is a "building?" how would you define a building in the context of valheim ?

[scenic drum]

How do I report someone adding me for the purposes of SPAM or Solicitation?

[dense mesa]

Well, one thing you learn pretty quickly while hanging out on the internet is you don't let people add you to things and you just can't believe everything everyone says. Sad but true. 😢

[scenic drum]

You also learn that people make assumptions, I haven't added them. But I have seen this sort of approach before from these types of people and this is the only server I share with them. So I thought I would inform a mod. Thanks for the response.

[dense mesa]

Oh, you've mistaken the name 'mods' in the channel name to mean moderators. It doesn't. It means 'plugins' for the game. The moderators don't hang out in here any more than they do in the rest of the server channels.

[scenic drum]

Ooph, I made the wrong assumption. 💀 Thank you I will just message one of the Moderators then. Have a good one!

[coral ember]

I think they want you to use @lucid anvil, however that works

[warm glen]

hi all. my friend seems to have this issue on playing with mods. He cannot join our server while others easily can. We don't get this error that he is getting.

[arctic ether]

I would start by getting him to delete the mod profile he's using and start fresh, importing the mods from a code generated by one of you who is able to connect without problems.

[ornate wolf]

@magic spruce your mod zenmaps when removed causes the mini map, and map to completely walk off the job. I couldn't get a map in vanilla for some reason either after. I was able to fix it by reinstalling my game entirely. I figured this may be of interest to you. Anyways nice mods btw! I'm really looking forward to using quite a few of them.

[magic spruce]

Nah the mod works fine. You just need to toggle the global nomap flag. Reinstall not required 😂

Look at the configs for ZenMap. It clearly talks about setting the nomap flag. Had you read that you would have seen the solution.

[ornate wolf]

I read most of the page, I wouldn't expect to have to toggle a config before uninstalling it so theres no reason to be a dick lol.

[magic spruce]

I’m not being a dick. I’m explaining what happened. You are saying there is a flaw. There is not a flaw. This is correction of your false assertion. You didn’t read the configs and then were surprised that data persisted after removing the mod.

[magic spruce]

There is no reason to toggle a config before uninstalling. It sounds like you are unfamiliar with world modifiers. A vanilla feature.

[ornate wolf]

K lol.

[magic spruce]

no hard feelings, wasn't trying to come off as rude. just wanted to be clear as to the cause and solution. I'll put a comment in the wiki on the mod so that others don't have the same issue. 🙂

[ornate wolf]

All good. I find reading my messages out loud before I hit send often helps.

[magic spruce]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ZenDragon/ZenMap/wiki/3867-removing-the-mod/

[ornate wolf]

ZenTerrain is a godsend btw, I hated people digging holes around bosses to cheese them.

[magic spruce]

glad you like it

enjoy!

ZenConstruction has some options for preventing building on trees too if you want to block tree forts that enemies can't target.

[ornate wolf]

Nice, Ill check that out!

[worn grotto]

why prevent treehouses they fun

[magic spruce]

because sometimes players don't want to allow exploits that make the game too easy.

[ornate wolf]

Yes exactly like ZenDragon put it. I personally try to make all my bosses hard, and monsters to I feel that being able to cheese them isn't winning the game so this offers a linear approach which is nice.

Might as well grab a cheat sword if you're gonna trap bosses in big holes imo.

Or hide in trees

[restive spruce]

That is part of the fun of survival craft games, finding ways to exploit mechanics.

[magic spruce]

Sure, but sometimes server admins want to block known exploits.

[dense mesa]

I think that as a mod author you would want to make your mod as useful to as many server admins as possible. Putting in options that let the admin decide how he/she wants to customize their server would be a better plan than trying to limit them to your own opinion as to how their servers should be customized.

[atomic dawn]

Fucking preach

Haha

[magic spruce]

That’s literally what my mod does. Hence the phrase “options”

[dense mesa]

Oh, you thought I was replying to you because my post followed yours. But I meant it for modders in general.

Hence the lack of a reply notation on the post.

[magic spruce]

Ahh, gotcha

[warm prawn]

Hello, anyone know of a mod through Thunderstore that allows placing of natural items such as logs and rocks and naturally formed structures? I love to build and design and was curious. Same with anything that makes flattening land easier

[dense mesa]

InfinityHammer mod for all of that. And use it with Gizmo mod, too.

[warm prawn]

Thank you

Is gizmo mod by ComfyMods?

[dense mesa]

Yes, the Comfy one works for me. There are others I haven't tried.

[warm prawn]

Cool. Thank you so much! I appreciate you

[magic spruce]

Plant Everything ?

[simple crest]

Has anyone experienced that the Auto-pickup gets disabled by entering the world, or by use of portals?

[regal drift]

i'm confused. I restarted my PC and can no longer load Valheim-modded of course. I have been playing for the past 6 days with no issue on a modded hardcore-ish world but now i cannot load the game.

[simple crest]

So the BepInEx terminal window are not there, nor any traces of modding in the Playerlog?

[regal drift]

bepinex partially loads, i reach the "Iron Gate" portion of the load process - usually- and then unity error.

[simple crest]

r2 mod manager, vortex or manually modding?

[regal drift]

R2modman currently.

[simple crest]

Verify your game files in Steam, then start new profile on Thunderstore, and start modding from scratch.

[regal drift]

The Overwolf app that's activated when using Thunderstore MM drags my entire PC.

[simple crest]

So your problems are caused by 3rd party software conflicting with your system?

[regal drift]

unlikely as i do not use Thunderstore MM currently, nor do I have Overwolf installed.

[simple crest]

Good luck.

[atomic dawn]

No mods updated during this time at all?

[regal drift]

I updated Bepinex a few days ago, that is all

[restive spruce]

try running without mods, same issue?

[regal drift]

I uninstalled, and reinstalled. No mods i load just fine.

[restive spruce]

ok, then one of your mods isnt working or conflicting with another, try installing mods in small batches till you find what prevents the game from running

new profile is best so you dont have some old config file or something

[atomic dawn]

The problem with the game crashing is that you don't get any logs, it's frustrating.
Try and make a new profile with BepinEx and see if that loads at least?

[regal drift]

Negative. that was my second idea

i can look to see if a log was generated though I personally don't understand them.

[regal drift]

Deleted profiles, had a friend currently on the server send me an R2modman profile code, i no longer get a Unity error, because it doesn't get past the preloader now lol

goimg to restart my PC and pray lol

[restive spruce]

skipping steps to troubleshoot probably isn't going to work that well,
create a new profile>add a few of the mods, like 10 at a time if you need to, boot the game and see if you get errors.
Repeat until you get errors.

[regal drift]

Yeah.. I was just hoping to avoid that, at 100 mods it's going to be awhile, as well as the fact that by doing so i won't be able to access the server i've been on for the past week

[restive spruce]

you may want to so it in groups of 20 to start, will cut down restarting even more

[regal drift]

Discord crashed, desktop has no icons, my issue may be bigger than a single mod behaving poorly.

[restive spruce]

sounds that way

something crashed windows explorer is what it sounds like

[regal drift]

Restarted PC again, nothing changed, game loads. Man....

[regal drift]

Whatever happened made Steam question whether or not I actually owned the game, despite having hit 4,600 hours lol ... Just had to relog to fix

[fleet haven]

Are there any mods that adds extra hotkeys

[unkempt cradle]

there used to be hotbar switchers where the top row of numeric keys switched with the row under it on keypress
and there used to be equipWheel, but afaik neither are current/working

[atomic dawn]

Someone updated EquipWheel

[unkempt cradle]

oh nice

also YABL looks nicer, but it didnt sync changes i made in configurationManager (as admin) to dedicated.... i assume it should

[atomic dawn]

Did it before the update?

[unkempt cradle]

lol, idk, i dont think so

[atomic dawn]

Actually, it worked for me since this is a mod I have to test in multiplayer.
I changed order and turned off new line in game and it updated live.

But I will test again anyway.

[unkempt cradle]

maybe its just disregarding the LogFormatTemplate.....

i am seeing

Received 1 configs and 0 custom values from client 921850432 for mod YouAreBeingLogged
[Info   :YouAreBeingLogged] Log format template updated: [Player] [Coords]
[Info   :YouAreBeingLogged] Action on new line setting updated: False
[Info   :YouAreBeingLogged] Configuration reload complete.

assuming 1 is the minimum ping frequency will go, its not obeying 2(s)

toggling ping checkbox does happen immediately, but frequency seems to be ignored

also the option for steam id rather than session id would be nice

ok, so it looks like minimul ping freq is ~ 5 sec... fair enough... i was only setting it low to see it doing it

[atomic dawn]

I just tested, everything updates live.
I did notice though that ping and cords are not affected by the ordering but any other log types are.

No, you can set it to 1 and it works

[unkempt cradle]

hmm

i just checked, my script is just doing tail -f <log> and its very much not displaying @ 1s.

[unkempt cradle]

[Player] [Coords] seems to be adding 'player:' (the title) etc despite me saying not to

weird

[atomic dawn]

I did say that ordering didn't seem to affect ping and coords but all other log types

[unkempt cradle]

[Info   :YouAreBeingLogged] Log format template updated: yomamma [Player] indahood [Coords]
[Info   :YouAreBeingLogged] Action on new line setting updated: False
[Info   :YouAreBeingLogged] Configuration reload complete.

even weirder its receiving it

[unkempt cradle]

yeah, i cant think why it wouldnt work at my end

im seeing instant response to picking to/from chest.. bu the custom formatting [Player] [Coords] is being ignored.... or significantly embellished

ie: im seeing:
[2025-08-13 20:51:17] Player: Betlꚛg (ID: 91569320) at coordinates: 5916.8, 30.9, -2983.3 - Unequipped: Fish9 x5 {"CrafterName":"", "CrafterId":"0", "Quality":"1", "CustomData":"{}"}
but with [Player] [Coords] expect to see:
[2025-08-13 20:51:17] Betlꚛg 5916.8, 30.9, -2983.3 - Unequipped: Fish9 x5 {"CrafterName":"", "CrafterId":"0", "Quality":"1", "CustomData":"{}"}

also coordinates probably shouldnt have spaces in them :}

[drowsy sleet]

Hi friends, where can i get some nice mods for my single player server ?

[coral ember]

From https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/

[drowsy sleet]

Thank you!

[white pawn]

Is there a mod like fuel eternal that is being updated? Closests i found was TorchesAndResin. Would have redo all lighting to get them to 10k though, and even that doesnt seem to be updated for ashlands. Fueleternal is just missing blue standing brazier and jack o turnip i believe which can be added as custom from config which i will try to figure out next but issue comes on the next update as well ofc

[drowsy sleet]

Hey there! Could anyone help me? i dont know how to install Mods, i got already Thunderstore Mod Manager installed but didnt know how to run mods on my single player server 😢

[restive spruce]

having the mod manager you simply create a profile, download the mods you want with the modmanager, then make sure to use launch modded, not vanilla in the mod manager. they should work.

[unkempt cradle]

@pure violet are you the maintainer of https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/MojoRyzen/GrabMaterials/

[remote trench]

is there a mod that lets you place vanilla rocks, boulders, ores ect?

[worn grotto]

Ore veins is console commands

But boulders idk

Maybe console commands asw

[remote trench]

ye i know them in the console command as rock_3 ect

was just wondering if i could place them though the hammer aswell with a mod

cause when i spawn a rock_3 with devcommand i can't move it

[dense mesa]

InfinityHammer mod does that.

[haughty folio]

More Vanilla Build Prefabs works too for something more gameplay friendly.

[remote trench]

does this one let you place rocks and boulders?

i downloaded the mod just didn't see those props

[haughty folio]

I think it should.

Config probably has some disabled by default.

[dense mesa]

It'll put new 'Nature' and 'Creator Shop' tabs in your hammer menu and you'll probably need SearsCatalog mod to see all the items that scroll off the bottom of the menu.

[empty sage]

does anyone know what this mod is called?

[sacred orchid]

Rustys almanac classes

[empty sage]

Ok thx

[iron drift]

Is there anyone else having issues "connection failed" with Valheim Plus

[atomic dawn]

Which version did you get?

[iron drift]

using G portal services

[sleek osprey]

Anyone else having issues running valheim plus using G-Portal services
The game will run fine with no mod, but services fail to launch running Valheim plus mod

version 0.9.16.2

[sleek osprey]

version 0.9.16.2

[atomic dawn]

Yeah, that's years old.

Use this https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Grantapher/ValheimPlus_Grantapher_Temporary/

[sleek osprey]

Thanks. Will give it a try

[iron drift]

its the same version as the link you sent us, says it was updated 5 months ago

[atomic dawn]

Oh 😂

I thought he was using the original ValheimPlus, not Grantapher version

Make sure that when you make the server in GPORTAL, do not pick "Valheim Plus" as install but BepinEx.
Then you install ValheimPlus manually like all the other mods.

[coral ember]

has gportal fixed it so mods work again after bepinex update? i havent seen anyone asking for help for the past few days until now

[sleek osprey]

This is what I got from their support rep

Here is a better response from the team. Guess I just wait.....

Moving it to a different IP address did not work

[coral ember]

ofcourse not, why would that have any effect

but it sounds like they got bepinex working but their built in valheimplus is broken. so the suggestion above to manually install the 5 month old valheimplus on the server sounds like the best choice to try

[sleek osprey]

I didn't work. G-Portal is just sucking right now.

[restive spruce]

get rid of valheim plus, https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/Valheim_Minus/
can't have valheim plus issues if valheim plus is killed by valheim minus.

[coral ember]

or just dont install it, Ive only seen that mod used where a server provider didnt offer regular bepinex but only non modded or valheim plus

[restive spruce]

I think most servers offer just bepinex now, with the exception of nitrado because they are garbage.

as most have found, you can get all the same options found in v+ from modular qol mods that arent patching 500 things and only what you want them to.

[rotund moth]

im trying to find a decent build camera mod any reccomendations?

[versed arrow]

how to fix this? using r2modman hosting my own sserver, people are able to get into the server, but when i load up moy modded version of the game i get this

[atomic dawn]

You need to show the original error, these are just spam that comes after.

[versed arrow]

i fixed i dont need yall no ways

[autumn stratus]

Probably Build Camera.

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/Build_Camera_Custom_Hammers_Edition/

[viscid needle]

So i recently found out about BetterContinents, is this the best mod to create custom seeds?
I wanna make a world that looks like country!

[atomic dawn]

Sure but please keep in mind that it will hold your world hostage aka you can NEVER remove it.

[dense mesa]

That seems like a very good time to do a special backup copy of your world file pair and archive it someplace, in case you need it later.

[devout gyro]

hello all, I am looking for help resolving a bug with balrond's character customization mod when running on mac. whenever I boot up, my characters all look like shadow people. I am looking for some insight into what could be causing this. I know the simple answer is "the mod" but specifically, why is it doing that? what's different between the mac and windows versions that causes this to happen on mac but not windows? any help or insight would be appreciated. thanks y'all

[sacred orchid]

Mac uses the Metal API (graphics API), Windows uses DirectX or Vulkan. All of the different graphic APIs have slightly different ways of doing rendering and often shaders have to be compiled or built to support those particular ones specifically.

Typically I've seen that Metal uses transparency on solid shaders, whereas DirectX and Vulkan do not. So an object shaded as a solid surface that is using a slightly transparent texture on windows will look completely solid- but it will look see through on Mac.

[devout gyro]

okay, so, stupid question time: is it possible to run DirectX or Vulkan on a mac?

[sacred orchid]

DirectX No, Vulkan technically possible but, for Valheim, no.

You could run a VM or dualboot into an OS which does support those graphics APIs though

[coral ember]

theres crossover for mac so you could run the windows version but I dont know if theres any active version of wine for mac that include gaming optimizations like proton does

[magic spruce]

I also like Riverheim

[devout gyro]

I tried running valheim on whisky and everything booted just fine but for some reason I can't join my friend's server, there's an issue with crossover/whisky, playfab, and valheim apparently: https://steamcommunity.com/app/892970/discussions/1/4514379280327436937/ does anyone have any resolutions for that?

[devout gyro]

so I'm a little crazy and I have a coding background and I was wondering- if I were to find a way to jam MoltenVK (an API which maps Vulkan calls to Metal) into valheim, would using the -force-vulkan steam launch argument enable me to run it like that on mac? OR do we think it would be easier to ask balrond for a copy of the source code and try to adapt it for metal?

[atomic dawn]

Simplest would be to just ask Balrond to add Mac support in the project build settings.
He will not give you the source of the code or Unity project.

[ashen pendant]

Good evening, does anyone know of any mod that removes the limit to which you can dig down?

[novel sparrow]

Hey guys, been searching everywhere for an "Infinity Build" like mod

[restive spruce]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/AzuWearNTearPatches/

[jagged nimbus]

can i use nexus mods n play with my friends ?

[simple crest]

Since mods are client side, you can have mods, and others don't.

But be aware that if you use mods that adds custom stuff into the game, and you use it, others without the mod will not see it, or be able ot use it.

[jagged nimbus]

ty

[simple crest]

So mods you're using might have unintended effect on other players experiences.

[dense mesa]

If your friends are already using nexus mods on their games, they can probably help you make the mods work on your game. Otherwise you're better off going with the thunderstore.io site for your Valheim mods. You can search in here for 'nexus' and see their reputation.

If you're going to use more than a couple mods, you might want to use a mod manager to make that easier. Thunderstore has several to choose from. They have r2modman and Gale. Both work well and are popular.

If you do decide to go with nexus mods anyway and need help later, always mention that you've got mods from nexus so that people in here know what you're dealing with when they try and help you.

[novel sparrow]

Anybody know what this could be coming from: [Error : Unity Log] Can't remove Rigidbody because FixedJoint depends on it
[Info : Unity Log] ✅ Convex Hull Generation Complete!
[Info : Unity Log] 08/20/2025 18:50:44: Setting saddle:False

[simple crest]

Fallheim?

[novel sparrow]

Don't think I have that lol

[simple crest]

Then you need to read up on your mods, and see what mod it could be.

[novel sparrow]

But is it something actually related to the character's body? Like a mount or something in the customization/

Or is it just a random error that makes no sense

[simple crest]

I've never seen this error before, so I'm just spit-balling here. Maybe others has seen this before?

[late gorge]

Got an issue with mobs spawn right beside workbenches. Just started with my current base. Mind you, it is very very large. An island base. Only 2 very small places outside the workbench area that things can spawn.

I'm getting meadows things spawning near workbenches and even inside the main building. (a 20x20 blackmarble pyramid))

Valheim+ (Grantapher) does let you change workbench radius and enemyspawn coverage. Using the defaults (20m) or upping to 30m same thing. Smaller islands had no issue, but this is huge. (I have screenshots of the base in the mods screenie section.)

Is there a problem with nightspawns if there is no valid spot for them that is not covered by workbenches/structures? Never had this before btw. I'm also checking with V+ to see if it's a mod issue. So hard to tell.

Raid events do happen, but no actual spawns except once I had a troll show up spawning by a workbench. They cannot just climb out of the water onto the island, walls/ground too high for that)

[tender jungle]

pls help before i blow my brains out. this piece of shit server wont start. i only have valheim plus, the new version

The other day me and my friends were playing, no issues. i start it up today and the entire server is gone. i go into the files and realize it has overwritten the world with the same file name. I get the backup and rename it to .db and remove the new one. Then this happens in cmd.

https://tenor.com/view/shoot-me-kill-gun-in-mouth-gif-15568252

[tender jungle]

Nevermind. I got it semi fixed. The backup, i dont know. It didn't have the house but I used steam to do integrity of files and now it launches. idek

just gonna make a new world

[ionic ermine]

hi

[rocky shell]

First problem, can't enter the game world. Then I tried to get rid of some mods and it fixed it. Then I got into the game and couldn't interact with anything or select any items from the hotbar. So how do I fix all this ?

[coral ember]

keep removing mods until you find the broken one

[queen violet]

To add core wood to this list, would it just be "CoreWood"? (automatic fuel mod)

[coral ember]

you want the "Internal ID" as found on https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Corewood

its RoundLog

[queen violet]

got it, thanks!

[magic spruce]

are you running ZenRaids? It modifies the spawn rules so that if no fires are lit then monsters can spawn inside your base. It’s all documented on the thunderstore page.

[dire sage]

hi, does bepinex works with the new PTB ? 🙂

[magic spruce]

mods will break until patched. Not recommended to run mods on the PTB unless you are a mod dev

Some will work. Some won’t. You can try and see what happens. Don’t be surprised if they don’t.

[autumn stratus]

But, yes, BepInEx “works” with minor issues about logging.

[glacial abyss]

How do I start dedicated server on my pc without any mods again?
I had modded server last time and now I want to continue 1 server with friend we first played but now the server is not starting even when I have removed BepInEx folder and everything from Plugins folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Valheim dedicated server

is there still some mod files somewhere else?

[coral ember]

Delete the winhttp.dll file along with anything with doorstop in the name

[glacial abyss]

"doorstop_libs" this whole folder?

did both of those but still nothing

[coral ember]

Then delete everything and reinstall. Once winhttp.dll is gone then it's impossible for mods to load. Problem is probably something else.

[simple crest]

If you switch often back and forth between vanilla and modded, you should look into r2 mod manager on Thunderstore.

[glacial abyss]

I have that but I only used it for player client, not for server
I fixed the issue now by copying the whole server folder into backup folder, then uninstalled dedicated server and installed again, works now

[simple crest]

I'm not using r2 myself, but people here claims you can go back and forth on client and on server with that mod manager.

[glacial abyss]

yeah you probably can, I tried it once but it didnt load the right server so I just did it manually

[late gorge]

nope not using that mod. It's either the game itself or valheim+

[runic isle]

It sounds like the problem is raids rather than regular mob spawns. Is that right?

[late gorge]

nope, regular spawning.

well, raids once. (one troll)

[runic isle]

Which mobs have spawned?

[late gorge]

greyrling, neck, deer, boars and grewdwarf (night)

The troll once during a raid.

I've made 2 areas off the island that let mobs spawn, and so far, nothing on the island. (it's a good ways into the water, 44x200(ish) in size. It's all covered in benches etc. So there would no place at all for spawns except in the base. (they even spawn inside a building) umf. But not since I made those 2 little things.

[runic isle]

Sorry, I got confused by that. Are you saying that now since you made those 2 little things (?), you no longer have a problem?

[late gorge]

yes, the things are small islands. they still get kinda washed over by waves, but large enough for stuff to spawn. (as long as I don't hear the barking deer, I'm ok)

I really should try doing that with no mods, but levelling off that island was a right pain. Don't feel like doing that again soon. 🙂

[rotund moth]

Anyone had issues with g portal server not starting or failing? after adding mods?

[coral ember]

Gportal broke after the recent bepinex update. I thought I heard they finally fixed it though

[simple crest]

Open a support-ticket with G-Portal, and ask for how much refund you'll get, since G-Portal can't get Modding to work. Especially since they still brag about Valheim+ on their website.

Hope to hear from you 🙂

[peak gulch]

your the perfect person to ask as u made ward is love, is there a way to set the max amount of "shield"/Ward a person can use in like a % ?? so like 1 ward to 50% and another base to 50% with a cap being a total of 100%?? Instead of 100% on every one built ? or a way to limit the amount of wards a player can have ?

[autumn stratus]

Yes, the server config file has ward limits in it.

[peak gulch]

what is the Key word to search for in the config ? Is it in the Localization one or the other or Advise me on how to do this, i would much love the help if you have tijme to let me know TY kindly

[autumn stratus]

Ward Limit.

Change the value. On the server. In the Azumatt.WardIsLove.cfg

[analog haven]

i wanted to install gooderautoshield and it also downloaded jsondotnet which says deprecated. whats that mean and does it mean i cant use it?

[formal steppe]

RTD mods what can i say other than i love them...With that being said i am having an issue with the dungeons spawning. They spawn on personal server but when loaded on my paid server will not generate in the world

[royal fjord]

Anyone gone thru the struggle of getting bepinx or r2modman onto a steam deck and have any success? Cannot get bepinx to run even tho most files are implace and given permissions to execute.

[coral ember]

If you are using r2modman all you need to do is set the launch args as it tells you to (to the linux_wrapper.sh). Then go into the profile and verify the start_game_bepinex.sh has executable permission.

[royal fjord]

Went back and checked all of this, gave that specific launch arg another try, and still no luck. Im assuming the Bepinx code box will load with the game when I choose to run the modded profile? Yea it seems like the issue stems from Bepinex not getting permission to execute somewhere along the line. A bit frustrating, but I might have to tap out of a build competition if I cannot figure it out in the next day or so.

[coral ember]

No, no other window opens up on Linux like it does on Windows. Either look in the lower right corner over the merch store icon for the modded text or enter a world and look for changes from the mod. If the game is launching after setting the launch args and clicking start modded in r2modman, then mods are probably loaded.

[royal fjord]

I get an Incompatible version error when I get past the password screen

[royal fjord]

I appreciate the feed back. I was going to obsess over that second window and bepinx, now I can try other issuse. Going to put some food in my brain and try to come back to it again shortly.

[coral ember]

Look in the bepinex folder for the log file. That's a good sign it's loaded.

[peak gulch]

@autumn stratus think i have a issue with your mod Ward is love, i have the needed bench set to ( Crafting Station = Workbench ) and i it says i need the forge still, i have saved it andalso restarted client and server also asked a firend to look were both stumped

[autumn stratus]

I assume you’re admin?

[peak gulch]

ya i am

[autumn stratus]

That’s the bug. If you weren’t admin it would show the way you have it set.

It’s a known bug

[peak gulch]

so do people have to wait till they hit a forge to make it ?

[autumn stratus]

Default configs. Yes.

Admins? Yes unless they live change the config after they sign in.

[peak gulch]

i tryed to do it in the config / ftp saved and restarted and it still says forge is needed so might have to just let everyone know lol

[autumn stratus]

Again. Admin bug.

You see it as default

[regal basin]

Hey, so uh, I have like updated mods for StD (specificlly the perquisites) and found out the new level - HP - Stamina bar overlaps my consumable shortcut (expanded inventory mod). How do i fix?

[peak gulch]

ok thanks lol

[atomic dawn]

What's StD?

Wait you can get STD in valheim now?

[peak gulch]

something u dont wanna catch

oh ok nvm lol

[regal basin]

*RtD

Lmao

That's a short for 'Ready To Die'

[silent axle]

Could someone help me with PlanBuild mod?

[dense mesa]

What kind of help do you need with it.

[peak gulch]

Anyone know how to make the food in Jewelcrafting made by smoothbrain able to be teleported through teleporters ?

[restive spruce]

I didn't know there was a food in jc..

[analog haven]

has anyone found a vein mine mod? i used veinmine but that mod doesnt work anymore.

[sacred orchid]

Impactful skills has a veinmine, aoemine etc if you want a gradual progression
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/MidnightMods/ImpactfulSkills/

[analog haven]

awesome ill check it out thanks!

i just downloaded topmining so im going to try this first

[coral ember]

use the version of topmining from lexiebean on thunderstore, the other two are out of date

also I tested TopMining plus ImpactfulSkills together some time ago and once I unlocked aoe mining it just insta blew up the large stone chuck I was testing it on. I havent tested recently though

[analog haven]

thanks for letting me know. the top mining i had installed was march 2025 but i mined copper and nothing changed

im going to try the impactful skills, seems fun

[coral ember]

if you use the lexiebean one, when you mine a copper deposite it will damage the lowest part but spawn the ore where you are standing. if you use the blackviking version it will do the same except it spawns the ore where the damaged part is

its not a one click mining mod but more to stop from needing to dig up every little section of the deposite, just stand at the top and mine

[analog haven]

oh i see. yeah the one i had that was called veinmine was like terraria, how the buttong while mining and bam! big explosion and it was all mined

[coral ember]

impactfulskills has the mine everything in one big explosion but its only a chance to happen and only once you get the mining skill high enough

[analog haven]

i see

oh my, i just changed the requirements to enable the mine everything it was a chain reaction lol

[alpine dew]

[autumn stratus]

That means you have other errors spamming your console

and it's simply overflowing the in-game console.

[alpine dew]

So how do I fix it?

[autumn stratus]

Find the first error in the log, figure out what mod that is, remove it.

[alpine dew]

Thanks

Have 5k hours of Valheim on multiple servers. For some reason getting this error on 2 different servers (Kvasir and Valhalla) with about 80+ mods each. Have played for a couple years on Kvasir. Got this error after uninstalling everything then months later regretting my decision, reinstalling and unable to connect.

So if I am running the expected mod list, with no add ons, why would one player get the 65000 error and not another?

[autumn stratus]

That one player found an issue that you/others haven't.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[alpine dew]

Roger that.

[simple crest]

I used it a few minutes ago, works fine in my worlds.

[rustic matrix]

all of my mods are not loading when i get into the game it just says that i have 1 plug in active despite having like 15

[opaque olive]

What is the best way to know if your mods will still run in the Call to Arms update?

[atomic dawn]

By launching the game when the update is out ;P

[opaque olive]

Thanks for stating the obvious. I am more so worried about messing up my world by loading in with incompatible mods and losing items

[atomic dawn]

AFAIK it's not possible to look into the future as of this time.

[opaque olive]

Can you not run mods in the public test?

[atomic dawn]

You can.

[opaque olive]

Then how am i looking into the future......

[atomic dawn]

Because the final update is not out yet.
Maybe they add something that breaks something?

It's not very likely but still a possibility.

[opaque olive]

I am just wanting to know if there is a way to verify if mods will work before loading into the public test

[rustic matrix]

any ideas??

[atomic dawn]

The only way to verify if a mod still works is by launching the update.
You can make a copy of your Valheim install or if you use Thunderstore you can make a backup of the profile.

[rustic matrix]

can anyone actually help me?

[autumn stratus]

Are you sure the other 14 are actually mods and not configurations or uploads of configs? Have you read your BepInEx/LogOutput.log file for errors and mod loading issues?

[rustic matrix]

umm how do i know if theyre configs and not the acyaul mods

[autumn stratus]

If you're saying the top left of the main menu is showing 1 mod loading, that would be the mod that is telling you 1 mod is loading 😄

[rustic matrix]

but i dont know which mod that is and why there is only one

[autumn stratus]

That would be this mod:
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ValheimModding/ValheimDisplayBepInExInfo/

and again, if you are downloading "mods" which are just configuration files, it won't count them as loading...because they don't

[rustic matrix]

not even the valheim display bepinex is working

[autumn stratus]

Then BepInEx isn't loading. Use a mod manager like Gale or r2modman if you're unsure of how to install mods manually.

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Kesomannen/GaleModManager/

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ebkr/r2modman/

[rustic matrix]

according to thunderstore, thesse managers dont exist

could potentially reininstalling thunderstore help and verifiying files on steam

[autumn stratus]

If you're using a mod manager...to install a mod manager. That would be why.

Thunderstore is the site. It has 3 mod managers that pull from it.

Thunderstore Mod Manager
r2modman
Gale

If you are already using Thunderstore Mod Manager, and it appears your game is loading at least one mod. Then you need to see which mods you have, read up on them, and determine what they are/expected to be doing.

read the console window that launches with the game. Look for red errors. That data is also saved in the BepInEx/LogOutput.log file that's saved in your Thunderstore Mod Manager profile. Which you can get to by navigating there manually via the Settings -> Browse Profile Folder option.

[rustic matrix]

no red errors

i just think its weird beacause even previous profiles that i have made have worked fine but now they just dont work at all

[autumn stratus]

You wouldn't really know without more information from the log files etc. I'm only shooting in the dark at this point.

try a new profile with mods.

[rustic matrix]

ive got it working now, i dunno how but thatnks 4 tryna help

oh and love ur mods, very helpful and fun

[rocky shell]

I literally gave my friends the same mods as me and they all work but CRAFT FROM CONTAINERS doesn't for some reason. Help.

[left pier]

Hello travelers, this mod causes me to see all buildings blue. Any way it can be turned off ( you need this mod to run every single mod on thunderstore)

[alpine dew]

I stopped playing Valheim for a few months after logging 5K hours the last few years. Swore I was done. Uninstalled everything from my gaming laptop. After going through regret/withdrawal, I tried playing again. I can load the mods, but can not connect to any server (Have tried 3 different ones). I keep getting a "65000" error and not able to connect. Have tried uninstallling valheim and R2 modman, deleting the bepinex folders, no effect. See my above post of the error message from last night.

[silent axle]

Look, I have installed all required mods. But in the game, it does look like the mod works incorrectly

[dense mesa]

Your DM shows that the PlanBuild mod appears to be installed properly and you've created the Blueprint Rune, as instructed. But the rune's menu has no 'Blueprints' tab. Only a 'Tools' tab.

I've never seen this before myself and my PlanBuild mod is currently running just fine with all it's tabs in place. So, I suspect that you may have an incorrect config setting in the mod's .cfg file. PlanBuild needs to have access to whatever folder is set in the .cfg file for it's .blueprint files. So check that setting. Also, check that you may not have the HookgenPatcher file installed correctly in the BepInEx patches folder.

Check those two things and restart the game. Also, in case you're not sure about the config settings, you can delete the .cfg file and let the mod recreate it fresh again with default settings when it first runs without it.

The only other possibility I can think of for this issue is a possible incompatibility with another of your mods. If none of the above help, try a test of running PlanBuild mod alone to test that.

[dense mesa]

As @autumn stratus said, one or another of your mods is broken or incompatible with the current game version. You'll have to disable/remove them while testing to see which one(s) are causing the errors.

[autumn stratus]

That's not a mod. That's the modding framework/mod loader.

One of your other mods is turning things blue. Doesn't have anything to do with BepInEx.

[plain berry]

I'm confused. I'm playing on his server with the exact same set of mods. How come I'm not encountering this issue, nor is anyone else on the server?

[dense mesa]

Well, a couple of things come to mind that might explain that. For one thing, just because you are using the exact same mods, you may not have them configured the same way, for whatever reason.

Secondly, things other than mods can produce errors, too. Like, if you're using crossplay on the server, you need to go through the MS playfab network attaching to one of their relay servers. It could be that only your location or comm link is triggering comm errors.

And, there may be other causes that I havent' thought of yet. You'll need to do some testing and investigating to try and find the cause of the errors.

One thing you can do is get one of the players without the problem to export his mods to you in the form of an r2modman export code. Then you can use that to not only duplicate his mod list but also his config options.

And, is you haven't already done so, turn off your firewall and VPN temporarily to test for any problems there. And can you try and get on the server without mods as a test, if the server would permit that.

[plain berry]

oh you can export a profile? interesting

[dense mesa]

You can with the r2modman mod manager from thunderstore.io. Maybe from their other mod manager, too.

[plain berry]

yeah we're using r2

[dense mesa]

It's in the Settings options.

[plain berry]

if I click Export as Code nothing happens. Export as file does though

[dense mesa]

That's only happened to me when I had mods that weren't available on thunderstore.io. In any case, the exported file works, too.

[rose coral]

Hi my friends and I are currently having an issue when using the 'Targetportal' mod, it works as intended, but then all of a sudden the portals disappear on the map and we cant travel between portals properly. It works one minute and then the next, it doesnt. Would appreciate some help 🙂

[dense mesa]

I'm not familiar with that mod. Read it's instruction page carefully and see if maybe there's a console command or key bind to show them on the map briefly.

[rose coral]

Well you can press P when on the map to show them, but none of the portals are linked now for me, and my friend only has a couple linked

It’s just weird, because it’s working fine then all of a sudden, not, this keeps happening too

The only way to reconnect them is go to the portals and activate them, but that’s very time consuming to do if we’re having to do that multiple times a day

[dense mesa]

Check the .cfg file to see if there's options in there you'd like better than the defaults.

[rose coral]

Also, no instructions in the page for a command, no FAQ’s with these issues, but it’s a frequently used mod, but nowhere to see if people are having these same issues

[rose coral]

Well, the defaults are fine, we just can’t figure out why the portals disappear

[dense mesa]

It could be that the mod assumes that if it left the portals on the map constantly, it would be a bother cluttering up the map for you. So, it might be intentional that you need to press "P" to show them on the map for a short time.

It also might be possible that you've got another mod that interfers with the portal mod. Try running a test with just the portal mod and see if that's the case.

[rose coral]

Yeah you can toggle them on and off the map whenever you want, that’s not the issue, the issue is that the portals aren’t linked at all now

We don’t have any other mods that conflict with this either and has been working fine for the most part

We can travel and link up all the portals again and it will work fine once we do that, but this has happened a few times now but we have no idea why they are unlinking from eachother

[plain berry]

Ok so he has his firewall / antivirus off. Fresh character, using my working profile file. Fresh install (he said he even wiped root directories but that's beyond me). No dice. @alpine dew

I have an appointment so gotta head out. If he's got time I guess.

[dense mesa]

@alpine dew so is the server using crossplay? If so, turn that off and do your port forwarding in your home routers, etc.

[alpine dew]

No Valhalla discord server is Steam only, no cross play.

[dense mesa]

Your discord server has nothing to do with it. It's only the game server and player's games and the way they connect, etc. that matter.

[gray atlas]

not necessarily modding but kinda sorta. I was screwing with devcommands, and decided to do a wacky idea. basically I want to put monuments of torment (the ones that spawn 2 star charred) in the sealed tower. However, they won't spawn for some reason. piles of bones and body piles spawn skeletons and draugrs respectively but it seems like the monuments wont.

[valid halo]

i have multiple stacks of different types of wood in my inventory?

server restart didnt work, repalcing them didnt work

last mod i got was NoBuildRestriction by blackviking but im kinda begging it aint cause of that

mod was updated so recently aswell

uninstalled the mod, restarted repalced blah blah nothing seems 2 work is my game just fucking bricked now?

[safe siren]

Greetings I only got BepinexPack and the console keeps showing this
Spamming my console. I can t seem to find an answer from google

[runic isle]

Make sure you get the Valheim BepInEx pack from thunderstore.io. The BepInEx from other sources can sometimes be problematic. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/denikson/BepInExPack_Valheim/

[runic isle]

You should be installing your mods from thunderstore.io with their mod manager r2modman.

You'll have better success with your mods and it makes it all much easier when you need to troubleshoot for a broken or incompatible mod.

[valid halo]

i wonder what made u assume im not using modman

that wasnt meant 2 sound passive aggressive im just genuinely shocked i assumed anyone and everyone was using modman for valheim

also i fixed it. Seems wood spawned in by the "easy spawner" mod is just....fake?

everything else works with spawned in materials just not the kiln

[runic isle]

You didn't say one way or the other in your post. There was no info at all on how you did your installs. So, I thought it would just be easier and quicker putting that info in my post to you rather than asking you and you having to take a min. to answer. It seemed logical to assume that your problem(s) could originate from your installation method since that does cause a good percentage of the issues and problems in here.

[coral ember]

most common issues are installing old mods from nexus instead of tunderstore (or installing bepinex from upstream and not the valheim version), the weird localization bug where you need to change language to another language and back once, and just having really out of date mods or mods that conflict with each other.

[safe siren]

But I got it from thunderstore via r2mod manager 😮 or isn t it from there?

Yes got it from thunder store still does the same problem

[restive spruce]

the error points to an input override issue, idk why you're asking about Bepinex

bepinex doesnt map mouse buttons or lets you set hotkeys for anything

[safe siren]

I don t have anything set on it I just freshly re-installed the game and got this xd

[coral ember]

something in your modlist or saved mod configs is causing the problem

[restive spruce]

"freshly re-installed" meaning you deleted the valheim folder in steam, then validated the game files?
created a new profile in R2modman and downloaded a couple mods?

that is how you do a clean-reinstall so that nothing might be left over

[safe siren]

clean - reinstall I haven t had valheim installed for a while ; created a new profile in r2modman as I deleted ol modlists and anything.

[coral ember]

then the modlist sounds like the likely suspect. something in there isnt working right

[restive spruce]

yeah, sounds like some mod that tries to set some hotkey and is missing that said hotkey in the config

[safe siren]

i deleted everything from r2mod and valheim reinstalled it again. I only got this one. do you think it has something to do with my old maps that I got saved in the main valheim folder?

[coral ember]

your getting that error with only that installed? do you get it with no mods?

[safe siren]

yus

[coral ember]

im wondering did the client hotkey configuration saving format change at some point and your old settings are just that old?

[safe siren]

how can i check that? Is there a keybind folder besides the one in settings cause i m not using mouse 5 in vanilla. The only time i used it when i had the free camera mod from the building mod that lets me move with the camera when I build.

but that was in may

[restive spruce]

idk, typically that works for most people, delete the valheim folder in their steamapps folder, goto properties of valheim and have it verify the installation.
then create a new profile in r2modman and test a mod or two

[safe siren]

Yeah I deleted everything i found in appdata local... it s already annoying I deleted my r2 mod / deleted my valheim deleted my maps everything related still does the same which each version of bep.

[simple crest]

All game settings are in windows registry, not a settings file.
You should make sure that Valheim runs vanilla directly from Steam Launcher, without launching the game via r2

[simple crest]

In Appdata there is characters and world files, and playerlog

[restive spruce]

is there a controller plugged in?

[safe siren]

keyboard only

[restive spruce]

add -console to your launch options for valheim in steam, test without r2modman and just run the game via steam to test

[restive spruce]

you get the error without bepinex?

[safe siren]

nope

only with bepinex

[simple crest]

If you just deleted Valheim folder in Steam, and redownloaded/verified the game files, I don't think the windows registry get reset for Valheim.

[restive spruce]

nah it doesn't but still a weird issue

[safe siren]

I entered the registry windows and I don t see any valheim in registry for some reason; as I typed regedit

[safe siren]

Prolly the game wants to say nah bro

[restive spruce]

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\IronGate\Valheim

[safe siren]

yeah went there there is no Irongate in there

vanilla works fine though

[safe siren]

now it shows up

shall i delete it?

[restive spruce]

sure, it should recreate when starting the game

[safe siren]

That seemed to work;

no more red texts spam

Thanks for the aid.. I don t know what would ve I ve done 😂 cheers and thanks now i can sleep easy

[grave lance]

I have a question for a modded session im trying to do with my friends and we have the same mods but each time he tries to join my worlds he gets a black screen and hears wind but never loads in. if any one has advices would appreciate it.

[runic isle]

When did this start for him? Has he just loaded up some new mod(s) maybe? Did it ever work ok? Is he just not waiting long enough? Are you guys using crossplay on the server? How is he trying to join you? Is he finding you in the Steam server listings?

If you have crossplay going on, and you don't need it to support Xbox users, remove it. Then make sure your ports and the server ports are forwarded properly in your home routers.

Also, have him make sure it's not a comm issue with him trying to connect to you and failing. Check your and his Firewalls and VPNs. Are any tasks running in the background of the PCs. Turn those off temporarily to test.

[sacred orchid]

Some mods dont support cross-play and will fail to load when connecting due to that. Try hosting without crossplay and see if that fixes it

[fathom hawk]

why am i getting all of these messages>? im unable to join a server my friend made and i feel like ive tried everything ive seen online

if anyone knows please help ❤️

[simple crest]

That screens tells us some of your mods are broken. You need to tells us more, to give you more accurate guesses.
What does your log say when you load into Valheim menu, and exists?
What does your log say when you try to connect to the server?
What does the serverlog say?
Paste it into pastbin, and post link here

[autumn stratus]

Change your game language to and from English.

or boot the game vanilla once before playing modded

[simple crest]

...or someone smarter then me, knows whats going on. 😄

[fathom hawk]

testing it now

thanks for the help will let you know shortly the outcome!

[fathom hawk]

tysm ❤️

loading now no red errors +rep

[fathom hawk]

i was trying
to do this networking patch
half a mill downloads
[Error : BepInEx] Could not load [Better Networking 2.3.2] because it is incompatible with: org.bepinex.plugins.network
can u ask their discord
what are the best ways to optimise the server with mods

anybody know about it? ❤️

[restive spruce]

dont use Better Networking, it's not really better.

[dense mesa]

You don't like BetterNetworking, GB? What about it seems to be 'off' to you?

And, what do you think of these mods for tackling comm connection issues? https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/MSchmoecker/TimeoutLimit/

and https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/MSchmoecker/LocalizationCache/

They both seem like they'd be helpful but I haven't done any testing.

[livid bay]

My mod code is 0198fbac-3c85-a67f-c315-dd9f1a1b2fd1 and I need help when I go to play with my mod pack it says some error when I got to a world or character like it literally says the words some error

And I am using thunder mod manager

[merry knot]

Please don't attempt to ping everyone in this server.

[dense mesa]

Check your log files to see if there's more info in there as to what the error is.

[livid bay]

No when I am in the game it won't let me load in my worlds and under neth them it says some error

[valid halo]

so i wanna alter the drops for some of the mobs from the monstrum mod cause needing like 30 pelt from a mob that u see once every 2 hours and drops 1 pelt is a bit much for me but idk what im meant 2 change here

am i overthinking it? do i just type 2 for 2 pelts or what

am i gonna need to type out the exact item id of the item its meant 2 drop

or do i change one of the numbers in here

[runic isle]

Try changing it to "Custom" and then adding the drop item prefab name and number you want in the Drop Config, as you showed.

[valid halo]

i dont really know how 2 do the second half of that

[runic isle]

You'll need to know the prefab name of the mob drop item. You can get that with the WorldEdit mod and hover over the item and put the "object info" command in the console. There may be easier ways to get the prefab name but that's the way I know about and use myself.

[valid halo]

is this what were talking about? lookin at it from easyspawner menu

[runic isle]

That's it. Yes. The RottenPelt_TW part.

[valid halo]

same line of text/code thats already in the start of the drop config im just struggling 2 understand which number ive to change in the drop config

like which number represents the amount dropped it says 1-1 is that...1 kill for 1 drop?

im a genenration overthinker i need to triple check this before i brick the code

1-1:100 what could the 100 even be representing here

[runic isle]

Sorry, I have no idea. It's really cryptic and not at all obvious. At least not to me, anyway.

[valid halo]

i think i figured it out? i think the 1-1 is just literal. When u kill you get 1 to 2 pelts, changing it both to 2 has them consistantly dropping 2

no idea what the 100 means

chance maybe? if the trophy is at 18?

[runic isle]

That would make sense, anyway.

[valid halo]

maybe its not 1 to 2 pelts it seems to just always drop wtv the first value is?coding is so weird man

[valid halo]

its been days...why are yall not getting freaky...

[valid halo]

triple server restart made it work ig 🤷‍♂️

[restive spruce]

idk, never had an issue so maybe just some weird valheim thing

like they were too near some torch, or the "area" check detected walls and roofs too close in some area

[tough peak]

i'm starting to play Valheim again, and updated r2modman and all of my mods. I'm getting errors now when running ComfyGizmo with PerfectPlacement. Its hard to interpret all of this red text, but it looks like the key components here are HarmonyX and Player.UpdatePlacementGhost(). is this a known issue? do i have to pick one or the other now?

[peak gulch]

Anyone happen to have a old KGMarketplace working quest system and Gambler ?

[atomic dawn]

The author have stopped modding for Valheim and therefore deprecated all their mods.

[peak gulch]

ya i see that but i have most of it working

just can get thet other ones to work i think im doing something wrong

[autumn stratus]

Why do you need one if you have the other? They do the same thing

[tough peak]

Oh, I don't remember. It's how I had things setup over a year ago

just gonna use yours

[tough peak]

i just started using AutoMapPins by FixItFelix. i started to explore, seemed to be working ok. left the game, and came back. now every pickable that was detected previously has a yellow radar ping on it.

[tough peak]

@rare owl sorry to bug you! was just wondering if you knew about this issue. thank you!!

[rare owl]

I stopped playing Valheim a while ago and am not actively maintaining mods right now. Sorry 😊

[autumn stratus]

Should your mods be deprecated?

[rare owl]

I don’t have a strong opinion on that. If some still work, people could still use them. Depreciation removes them from search, right?

[autumn stratus]

Default search, yes. It flags them on thunderstore stating the mods are not actively being maintained and that alternatives are suggested. It doesn't remove them from the site. People can still use them if needed.

I will note that I have deprecated AutoMapPins since it's not being maintained and appears to be in a broken state based on above.

You, as the author can override this at any point in time and push an update.

[tough peak]

well, thats too bad. because out of all the ones ive tried, yours was my favorite... apart from that bug which has made it unusable 🙁

[jagged nimbus]

So over the years ive modded everything from skyrim to fallout and 7 days and conan exiles but ive been having an issue with this, so i downloaded ValheimPlus the Grantapher version from the Thunderstore and moved the files to steam and Nitrado Server like i do for Conan Exiles because i also have a server for it on Nitrado but everytime i load into my Valheim server it says the versions dont match i looked at all the files they have the same date same file size the config file is good the valheimplus dll is good why is it still yelling wrong version ive went through reddit to find help but nothing and i went to github but got confused, anyone got an idea?

[autumn stratus]

The mod might not be loading in one of the locations

[restive spruce]

lol, and dont even bother with nitrado support, they are the worst of all for help. most the time they send you to their forum for help, but really that just turns into people having the same issue as you.

I usually suggest nitrado users enable V+ in their admin panel, then use ValheimMinus mod to stop it from loading. Use modular qol mods for the features you want.

[pure dragon]

Can anybody help with this? Everytime I enter a game, it’ll freeze me in the falling animation and I can’t move or do anything

[dense mesa]

Try disabling Seasons to see if it is causing the issue. It looks like you're using an older version of that mod. You might want to update it here: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/shudnal/Seasons/changelog/

[pure dragon]

I just tried, no luck ):

[coral ember]

Running under Unity v6000... isn't that PTB? Don't use mods on PTB

also many of your mods are extremely out of date

[pure dragon]

Whenever I took the PTB off it wont let me enter my servers and says [BAD VERSION]

[unique spade]

Characters and worlds have a versioning system. When you play a character on PTB it usually has its version incremented and is no longer usable in older versions of the game. But thankfully since the beta access password is yesimadebackups, I'm sure you have a backup to use.

This also might be caused by version mismatch of client and server. One of them may be on PTB still or you might have Valheim+ installed on one but not both

[pure dragon]

Ohh yep! That was the problem.
I just got back into the game and am not super tech savvy LOL.
I appreciate it!

Using the backup i mean

[rocky shell]

Both "build planner" mods don't work properly. 1 gives me weird text and when I put down the tablets and interact with them nothing happens and the other one just keeps the console open in the main menu without letting me close it

[civic iris]

Having issue with RustyMods Seasonality. New season keeps happening anytime we log in and the seasons aren't syncing with the server cause I have people logging in at different times and getting different seasons.

[dense mesa]

See if the mod has a 'Server Sync' option in it's .cfg file on the server, if it does, turn it on.

[dense mesa]

Are you playing on the PTB? If so, don't use mods there.

[rocky shell]

I'm not

[dense mesa]

Then, check to see that none of your mods are out of date. And you can always try a test run with just one of the mods there and verify that it's working or not.

[misty badge]

@civic iris don't use ## please

[civic iris]

Yeah I had a feeling thats why i was put in timeout. I was just copying what I had in my cfg file and when i saw it was big and loud and then i got put in timeout I figured thats what happened.

[civic iris]

This is what it reads now so hopefully that will be what i needed to fix it.

Set current season [Synced with Server]
Setting type: Season
Default value: Summer
Acceptable values: Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring

[onyx wedge]

Hi, I'm trying to copy a build from a vanilla world into a riverheim generated world. Unfortunately, when booting r2modman on Linux all the vanilla worlds display as "Bad World" and when running vanilla from steam I have no access to the PlanBuild mod + the riverheim world displays as Bad World. It seems r2modman is pointing to a different local_world folder than steam?

[coral ember]

r2modman doesnt have any impact on where the saves are loaded from

[runic isle]

Are you tangled up between some PTB and others not?

[coral ember]

doesnt reverheim change the world generation? it would make sense that you cannot load vanilla worlds with it loaded

[runic isle]

Are you guys talkling about the Riverheim mod? Yes, it generates custom worlds.

[onyx wedge]

Riverheim does generate custom maps, are those maps unloadable to anyone without riverheim? That's surprising. Usually generation and loading are two different things.

[runic isle]

From Riverheim's mod page:

[coral ember]

world generation happens every time you get near a previously unknown chuck. so it makes sense to me that it could block loading vanilla worlds from loading when installed and prevent its own worlds from being loaded when its not loaded

now for an actual solution to the the problem at hand. make a new mod profile and just install the planbuild and other mods in it that you need to copy the build out of the vanilla world

[onyx wedge]

Good to know, so everyone will need Riverheim to play together.

However, if I uninstall/disable all r2modman mods I am still unable to load vanilla worlds when launched via r2modman.

[runic isle]

Just FYI, keep in mind that generating a world is different from rendering a world.

[humble creek]

Hey, I keep having this issue with not being able to open a save while using mods. If someone is willing to help, let me know what to do next.

[runic isle]

Get all your mods, including the BepInEx pack from thunderstore.io and make sure the ones you get have been updated within the last 9-10 months or so.

What happens when you try to login to your world? You're playing the Steam version on a Windows PC? And you're talking about your solo game not a server?

[humble creek]

I updated them this morning. When I try to start a save, I first notice there is no character on the loading screen. When I press start, it says that this invisible character (who of which I never created) has the name Ragnar. I press the forward and back buttons to go back to my actual character, which for some odd reason is missing all of it's clothing and other customizable features (along with all my other characters.) Pressing my world I want to play on with any of my characters results in a "void/null" error and nothing to happen, leaving me stuck in the menu.

I will launch the game to send some screenshots as examples.

Also forgot to specify, I am using R2modman on a Windows 11 PC that uses my game from Steam.

And I am on single player, sorry keep forgetting specifications.

[restive spruce]

that is typical signs of one or more of your mods being broken

[runic isle]

Are you playing on the PTB or the current release game version? Check all your mods for their last update. Just getting them recently doesn't mean they're recent.

[humble creek]

Odd since I downloaded them all today and last night.

[humble creek]

Alright, I'll check

[restive spruce]

A mod may conflict with another, or just is broken, typically looking for more recent updated mods or filtering the search for at least Bogwitch should have working mods - if you're not on ptb..
