[languid hamlet]

I want to take a modded prefab and put it on the hammer. Is this possible, maybe with WackyDB?

[weary island]

I think there's already a mod for that.

[languid hamlet]

👀

[weary island]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/MSchmoecker/HammerTime/

[languid hamlet]

We have Hammer Time, that just puts all hammers into one. Unless there's a hidden mechanic I missed. Familiar with this one?
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Captain/BuildExpansion_Renewed/

May not be what I want anyway.

There's a prefab that spawns in the world, a tent, and it's buildable for me with inifinity hammer, but I want to add it to everyone elses.

[weary island]

Don't know how to do that. Sorry.

[languid hamlet]

Would you like to if I find out? I know you run a server too, so if something like this ever came up.

[weary island]

Well, I wouldn't turn it down but it's never come up as something anyone ever wanted to do, either. But it would be useful.

[languid hamlet]

This is first time in 1.5 yr, so yea lol

[wide bough]

mod for removing random spawns during a boss fight

[weary island]

Nope.

[wide bough]

:c ig ill make one :c

[weary island]

Oh. Ok.

[cyan ice]

Hmm, just logged onto my server and noticed all my 4 star wolves are now zero stars.

[languid hamlet]

CLLC hasn't been updated yet for patch, may be your issue.

[cyan ice]

I think you are right

[granite river]

Is there a mod that makes the rested bonus or comfort level more useful?

Just increasing the time is fun and all, but maybe once you reach a certain comfort level getting a bigger recovery bonus or smth

Something like that

[oblique jacinth]

it updated 2 hours ago. Everything works again 👍🏻

[sand shale]

Is there a mod that has snap-points for the goblin building pieces? I found a few with the parts but the center points and snap-points don't work.

[cyan ice]

yup just updated and logged on, everything is back to normal.

[vagrant karma]

Hey I’m just getting into mods, I have tested some but I’m curious of what everyone likes to use… I personally like building and having a rpg feel so I have the basics like plan build, epicloot, seedtotem, marketstall just to name a few but I’m curious what you pros use… I’ll take recommendations also to test out.. thanks 🙏🏻

[weary island]

Well, I'm no pro. But, I do love me some PlanBuild! The others are ok, too. I guess.

You could also look at maybe getting one of the Gizmo mods. Which ever one is most recently updated. 😄

[vagrant karma]

thanks ill look into that is it in thunderstore or github sorry if thats noobish im still learning.

[weary island]

Thunderstore. And just the fact that you asked that proves you're no nooby. 😛

[weary island]

Oh, also consider the SearsCatalog mod for when you start to run out of room in your build menus. 🙂

[vagrant karma]

OoooOOoo noice... thank you! I still feel like im a noob even if im just rusty at best lol but thank you for the recommendations they are greatly appreciated in my learning process

[undone osprey]

SearsCatalog also lets you reposition and resize the Build panel with your mouse

[languid hamlet]

All I gotta say is get into learning WackyDB. Game changer.

I couldn't do exactly as I wanted, bc WDB can't access the particular prefab I want, but it opened up a new world of customization to the server. 10/10 recommend.

[weary island]

Good info. Thanks for sharing that. 😄

[plush orbit]

yo having an issue
playing modded at the moment and all portals bugged out and now say that an evil force is blocking the portal
obviusly all portals being broken isnt great

[tired crescent]

Sounds like you downloaded a mod without reading the mod description or understanding what the mod does.

[daring basin]

Hey. If this has been asked to death here, my apologies. I'll delete it and ask elsewhere.

I was all about playing Vanilla a year or two ago when I tried the game. Now I feel like the I need some qol mods to make the gameplay more smooth. Not looking to change the game at it's core. Just want to make graphics more crisp/better, be able to put the item bar at the bottom, and maybe make the UI more beginner friendly.

Anyone know of any mods that may get things going? Just want mods that improve qol. Not change or add game mechanics nor make the game easier.

[thorny arrow]

Check out minimalUI or BetterUI https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/Minimal_UI/

[daring basin]

Both seem great. Thank you @thorny arrow

[mental scaffold]

I use a farming mod and plant everything mod. Can't recommend enough. Got mine on NexusMods

[weary island]

Have you tried MassFarming? 🙂

[languid hamlet]

I can't live without a clock.

[daring basin]

Appreciate the suggestions

Those would change the game too much for my taste except the clock which I'll keep in mind

[spiral jasper]

I'm looking for a mod that'll let me build in the spawn area - really I just want to flatten dirt around the area specifically but keep getting blocked. I'm aware of the JustBuildAnywhere mod - or something along those lines - but noticed it hasn't been updated in a few months. Does anyone know if this mod will work or does anyone have an alternative solution possibly? Thank you for any help

[mental scaffold]

After the last update, I'd be surprised if it still works. You might be better off waiting till the creator updates it.

[weary island]

You could try InfinityHammer. I think it will let you build and modify terrain in the spawn area. Make sure you have world backups. It's a powerful mod. 🙂

[prime ivy]

Hey all, new to the discord. Reinstalled Valheim yesterday and picked up a server from dathost. First time trying mods. Picked up some from thunderstore but when I went to start the game is said incompatible version. After about 3 hours of trying to figure it out on my own I removed em and the server booted back up. Any recommendations on how to maybe resolve this, as I'm definitely not an expert. I'm extremely new to modded servers. Also, does everyone on my server need to download the mods from thunderstore or just myself since I put them in the server? Thank you!

[hearty sphinx]

Bear in mind we only recently had a new game patch which made many modules out of date. Check their last updated date and try and avoid those that weren't updated in the last week.

[prime ivy]

Oh that's good to know. Wasn't aware there was recently an update.

[spiral jasper]

Thank you, I'll look into that mod. I see it says "Build without restrictions. Dungeons and even the start temple become valid for building." in the description but it's unclear to me if it'll extend to terrain manipulation. I'll have to test this tonight

[pseudo nexus]

helo dose any one know a mod to lvl the skyls faster?

[languid hamlet]

Mods you want to be on the server, which might include things like new gear, mobs, building pieces, should also be on the client. Client side mods are just that, client side, and don't have to be installed on server.

Incompatible version for what? The game version between you and the server, or a mod discrepancy? Either way, all need to be the same version. Hope this helps, modding can feel overwhelming at first.

[weary island]

You could go to thunderstore.io, join their Valheim community, and search there for "skills" and see what mods come up. If you do find a mod, make sure that it's been updated since April 10th.

[pseudo nexus]

@weary islandok ty for the info

[prime ivy]

It just pops up "incompatible version" when I try to log onto the server. Just tried with a modpack that was updated on the 15th and still having the same issue. I have no idea what the issue is. I'm not well versed enough on modded servers to be able to troubleshoot it myself.

[weary island]

Have you installed mods on the server or just on your game? Do you have any problem with your solo game?

[prime ivy]

So I think I have it almost figured out....I load the modpacks into dathost, and for the first time I clicked on start modded on thunderstore. It says running bepinex now and 27 plugins.....however, I get an error now that MagicPlugin is not installed on the server, but I see it being installed on the server list

[weary island]

Maybe the server and your game have two different versions of that mod.

[prime ivy]

I'm so confused now, not as much as before, but none the less lol. There's so many magicplug in options in thunderstore. Not quite sure what to do

and that's the magicplugin that came in the pack as a dependant

[weary island]

When you see the error about the MagicPlugin mod, does the error msg give you the version numbers?

[prime ivy]

let me boot it up again and check

I appreciate the help. This is all very confusing

Ok, so I saw when I clicked start modded, the bepin exe was running and it said magicplugin 1.9.1 was loaded. However, I still get the same message when trying to connect to the server. Says "Incompatible version" MagicPlugin is not installed on the server. It's not showing me any version #'s though on the menu

[weary island]

Version 1.9.1 is the correct current version of that mod. The server apparently has an older version and that's what it's complaining about. You'll need to put the current version on the server.

[prime ivy]

As to my knowledge, that's the one that is on the server. I'm using dathost as my server host. Not sure if you're familiar witht that at all. All I do is drag the bepin plugin folder to the plugin section and it does the rest.

Well, I thought it does apparently, but obviously i'm missing something lol

[weary island]

Be sure you're reading the error msgs correctly. That msg can be confusing and you need to read it carefully.

When you look at the server's plugins folder, and find the MagicPlugin mod there, can you open up the mod's folder and read the manifest file which contains it's version number?

[prime ivy]

Yea it shows 1.9.1

[weary island]

Then, the error msg seems to be complaining about one of the other mods.

[prime ivy]

Gonna try one more thing, I was trying individual install on the server settings, gonna try the whole modpack at once and see if I have a different outcome

[weary island]

If that doesn't straighten it out, take a screenshot of the error msg and post it here.

[prime ivy]

Will do! Is MagicPlugin needed for all mods or is that specific to that modpack?

[weary island]

MagicPlugin is a stand-alone mod that's being used by the modpak's author to also work for his modpak. Other modpaks and solo users use it, too.

If you wanted to, you could remove it from your game and the server. But it doesn't sound like that mod's causing the error.

[prime ivy]

same outcome, I can't share photos here, but i'll dm them to you if that works

[weary island]

Ok.

[languid hamlet]

A thought... You are stopping the server to add mods, then rebooting, correct? Mods can't be adjusted while the server is live.

[prime ivy]

correct, stopping everytime I change something

[languid hamlet]

Good deal. Sometimes just gotta ask.

[prime ivy]

No worries, I appreciate it!

[weary island]

I got the error msg. It's very clear that it's complaining about the MagicPlugin mod not being installed on the server. Doesn't mention the version at all. Just that it's not installed.

So, that makes me think the server isn't loading it properly even if it's there in the server's plugins folder. You can try removing it from the server and re-adding it there. And, if that doesn't work, either remove it from your game as well and find a similar mod to use to replace it. Or, maybe even put in a ticket with Dathost and see if they can resolve it for you.

[prime ivy]

Ok, I'll see if maybe I can try another similar mod to replace it and see what happens. Would I try with any of the ones that pop up with a similar name in thunderstore?

[languid hamlet]

Is it blacks7ar's?

[weary island]

Yes, read their descriptions and find one that has been updated since April 10th and does basically the same things as the MagicPlugin mod does.

[prime ivy]

yea blacks7ar's

[prime ivy]

Will do! I'll let you know if I have any luck. I appreciate all the help

[languid hamlet]

Check your server file, is there actually a MagicPlugin.dll in the folder?

[prime ivy]

There was yea. I removed it server side and my side and seeing what happens

[languid hamlet]

Just to clarify, you opened the folder and saw the .dll? I've seen it happen where they just disappear and we get the incompatibility issues. A manual download and planting the .dll where it needs to be usually fixed it.

[prime ivy]

I did yea. If this fails i'll try it again and see what comes up

[languid hamlet]

Right on. Hope you get on your way.

[prime ivy]

Looks like that may have worked....it's just telling me I need to create a new character

Which ultimately will be fine as I was only about 2 hours in

[languid hamlet]

Anti cheat as well? You can upload your character to the server, or add yourself as admin and be skipped

Server characters**

[prime ivy]

How would I upload him to the server?

[languid hamlet]

The will be a Saves folder with world_local and characters_local. Move your character to local save in the game menu, go to the file, and drop the .fch into character_local on server.

Sorry of that's confusing, walking out of work rn.

[prime ivy]

Oh ok, I think I see what you're talking about. I just moved it to a local save and I see the character local folder in the server settings

Ok, dropped and saved. Let's see if this works

If this works is there anyway to do this for my buddy too? Or would I have to give him access to the server settings?

[languid hamlet]

Nah just have him send you his .fch

[prime ivy]

Perfect

Just restarting the server and gonna see what happens

Success!!!!

although without the character, even after the character transfer it still said I needed to start a new one

[languid hamlet]

Ope, I think I should have told you to copy, rather than move, but I presume you're just moving forward with new characters anyway. Happy hunting!

[prime ivy]

hmmmm, I wonder if I did move it or if it copied. Let me check

yea looks like all it did was copy. Fch file is still in the game file as well

[prime ivy]

I wonder, so in game it says that the character.old is saved to local, but I didn't copy the .old file over. Could that be the issue?

[languid hamlet]

Try it, but I've never moved it. Might just be better off not wasting time for 2 hours lol

[prime ivy]

This is true lol

[prime ivy]

is there anyway to skip myself ahead a bit to close to where I was? I am listed as an admin on the server settings

[languid hamlet]

Commands

[prime ivy]

Only had the first boss fight done, but it would be nice to not have to do it again lol

[languid hamlet]

Setkey defeated_eikthyr, but you need -console in launch parameters to use commands

[prime ivy]

that sounds like a pain in the ass, so I may just skip it lol

[languid hamlet]

It's simple, but I'll let ya read into it if you ever want it. Plenty of info about it online.

[prime ivy]

Sounds good, appreciate it!

[languid hamlet]

I think I remember what I did to make characters work... Moved all my character files off the cloud, then moved them out of my game folder (saving a copy), and made sure to delete the character in game menu. Then started a new character with the same name you put in the server files.

[prime ivy]

Gotcha, everything went to hell lol. Everytime I logged out it was saying I had to make a new character. As much as I want to use mod's, i'm just throwing in the towel right now on em lol

[languid hamlet]

If you're just playing with friends, I'm not so sure you really want ServerCharacters anyway. It's normally used to prevent cheating, like going to a 1p world and trying to bring mats back in. If you trust your group, then disable it. I haven't experienced anything requiring a new character each time.

[prime ivy]

Now it's telling me failed to connect to server everytime I try. Yea, i'm just gonna reset it and run it on vanilla lol

[languid hamlet]

Oh, but you're so close! It's a steep learning curve, and we just had a patch, so it's understandable to feel like it's being chaotic. If and when you're ready to try it again, plenty of people in here to help. I'm just one guy speaking from experiences, a lot of others have real knowledge. I suggest keeping at it, but I understand prioritizing wanting to play! lol

[prime ivy]

I appreciate the help for sure! Maybe I'll let my bloodpressure go down for a day or so and try it again lol

[languid hamlet]

I once had to reinstall everything mid-season and rebuild from the ground up, because we were trying to reuse some old config files, which were not updated to match the mod version we were on. Spent like 9 hours straight rewriting just about everything we had customized on the server. Mind you, I also manage 142 mods (it's a lot, I know!), but only about 60 are actually required. You can do it!

[haughty ore]

is there a way to refresh/reload mods in the game without exiting and reentering the world?

[prime ivy]

Holy hell!!!! That's crazy!!

[weary island]

You can use an in-game configuration manager and a lot of mods will respond to those changes immediately. Maybe not all but some, anyway.

[haughty ore]

already using it, but some mods require you to reload the world

[weary island]

This is a decidedly imperfect world we live in!

[undone raven]

does anyone have recommendations for simple mods but still change the game tenfold?

[thorny arrow]

Best I can think of that fits that criteria is one of the Gizmo mods

[daring basin]

hello, does anyone know of a mod to instantly destroy build elements with no support?

[mental scaffold]

I think I've seen one on NexusMods

[kind pumice]

Seasons/Seasonality. They add so much more life to the world and also change the gameplay loop. You'll have to prepare for Winter for example, and it can become more of a survival game

[faint mulch]

+1 for seasonality. I'm not changing it up gameplay wise too much right now, just enjoying the changing scenery. But the options are there to have the season impact your gameplay quite a bit, which I will definitely use in a future play through.

I prefer Seasonality over the 'Seasons' mod by Shudnal just because Seasonality uses new textures for grass, trees, bushes etc and is much better visually than Seasons which just changes the existing textures colours.

[undone raven]

Thank you, all

[faint prairie]

Does anyone know if there's a mod that causes all players' maps to update when someone explores something new or places a pin on the map?

[stray glade]

Well met, Vikings. I come before thee with the noobiest of noob queries. It’s my first time installing mods on a dedicated server (dropped .dll files in ‘BepInEx > plugins’) and despite every effort, none of them want to load when running the game on Steam Deck. My logs say BepInEx loaded as intended, and there were no errors with any mods. Anybody here have experience with joining dedicated servers from Steam Deck? Do I need to also have mods installed ON my deck? Isn’t that redundant? Am I just hella dumb? Thank you in advance, fellow warriors.

[weary island]

Check the individual mod's web pages to see which are 'Client', 'Server', or both. Over 90% of mods do need to be on both. For Valheim, the server doesn't do much processing itself. It mostly communicates material processed by the clients out to the other clients. 🙂

[stray glade]

Duly noted! Thank you for the response.

[sonic dew]

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

[faint prairie]

I know but I want the map to be updated constantly, and not something you have to interact with

[viral kettle]

a realtime update around the clock on the minimap would ruin your fps 🤤

[azure berry]

An update button on each player’s map would do the trick

[hearty sphinx]

Like the one on the cartography table?

[idle patio]

hey, anyone know if there is still working alternative of instant craft? or something similar

[tired crescent]

AAA Crafting and set crafting time to 0 in the config

[idle patio]

been using aaa crafting and didnt know that, thanks

[faint prairie]

Oh yeah it would dangg

[faint prairie]

Is there a mod for that?

[autumn spruce]

Does anyone have a mod for disabling rain damage? I would do Valhiem plus but it seems like it may be abandoned

[languid hamlet]

I know BetterWards does.

[thorny arrow]

One option is https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/AzuWearNTearPatches/

[autumn spruce]

Azumatt does make some nice stuff 🙂

Thank you. @languid hamlet @thorny arrow

[somber garden]

Hey i forget the mod name but anyone know the mod that lets you Shift + E to fill a furnace or any smelter or oven instead of needing to spam E

[faint prairie]

Is there a mod that allows you to destroy these five stone pillars?
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Ancient_Stone_Circle

[tired crescent]

AzuCraftyBoxes or ConversionSizeAndSpeed.

[tired crescent]

Infinity hammer and set it to destroy anything.

[daring basin]

Excited for Ashlands, not to play but to explore the assets and mod

[hearty sphinx]

Seems a strange way to experience the game.

[devout gazelle]

Much faster that way, just look at the assets and gear stats.

[somber garden]

yep thats the one thanks 😄

[feral stream]

idk where should i ask this but is there a mod that makes trophies dropped by star mobs look like the star mob rather than regular
for example if i kill a 2 star orange troll and i put the head on an itemstand it looks like a regular troll

[faint prairie]

I installed PlantEverything and now I can't plant vanilla crops, like carrots or saplings, anyone know why?

Nevermind it's FarmGrid

I wonder why FarmGrid doesnt let me plant default crops

[daring basin]

Hey. New to the game. Is it possible to mod the PC Game Pass version?

If so, is there a way to add the ones I want and make it easy for others who join my game to use them as well?

[mental scaffold]

I use Mass Farming which works for me

[flat jay]

Use R2mod man you can share the profile code with friends

[daring basin]

Thanks

So there are no issues with modding PC Game Pass?

[flat jay]

I didn’t have any

[daring basin]

Appreciate the info

[latent bramble]

anybody know a mod which increases the amount of enemy spawn rates in valheim?

[sonic dew]

CLLC

[tired crescent]

@sour saddle Figured I would tag you here about your comment in my discord, youtube video etc to help answer your question. You asked your question and left within 5 minutes (after deleting it) so I'm unsure if you found your answer or not. Anyways the question you deleted stated

I cant find the Azumatt.AzuAntiCheat_ModeratorList.yml file

Where is it?

Yes ive already launched it once

You proceeded to comment on the YouTube video about not answering specifics. I would love to know what specifics you'd like the answer to. However, your question's answer is found right here at this time in the "Newbies" portion of the video. The file is found in this path on the server. In the video I state that, but it might be overlooked. Please let me know if you'd like more specifics answered that were not in the video, mod page, wiki, or other. I'd be happy to help.

[past finch]

Hello friends and buddies. A mate and I are playing with a few quality of life mods like epic look, but what if we wanna add new zones from a mod like Monstrum?

I downloaded the modpack and went to Ashlands, and it wasn't updated (haven't visited it prior)

[languid hamlet]

Instructions are in the README in Monstrum. You'll need Upgrade World.

[clever yew]

Just curious, me and a few friends have a server and have added a few mods, the target portal mod never works for us whenever the game resets or you leave you can no longer see any other portals unless you visit them by foot. I tried a different mod to add another type of portals and thought I'd try join the game with the new, very similar modpack, and it let me join and I could even place the stuff from the mod that wasn't on the server side. How does this work and can I play with any mods I want separatly and does anyone know a fix for the target portal mod??

[somber garden]

Does the new update break mods?

[weary island]

No. The update is for the PTB only.

[somber garden]

?

I was asking if mods work in the beta or if they all broke like past updates

[hearty sphinx]

You never mentioned the PTB.

[somber garden]

I didn’t think I needed to? I said update?

[tired crescent]

Technically, PTB isn't an update yet.

but yes, like any other update, there are mods that work and those that do not. The maintained mods are likely already being updated (internally) and some just work

[hearty sphinx]

We had a LIVE update a few weeks ago, and as you werent asking in the PTB channel, I assumed you meant that one.

[somber garden]

I don’t got a ptb channel on my end I looked earlier @hearty sphinx

[hearty sphinx]

You'll need to opt in using Channels & Roles.

[somber garden]

I don’t see it listed

[weary island]

It's the very first channel in the channel list. id:customize

[somber garden]

Not for me weird

Can you # the channel for me

[weary island]

id:customize

[somber garden]

Can you # the ptb I meant

[weary island]

It won't help if you don't get the role.

[somber garden]

Which role

[weary island]

Public-tester

[somber garden]

Ok I’m confused there’s no option to opt in like I searched and saw a comment from a admin saying I need to opt in via channels and roles but there’s nothing in there on my end just existing channels

No roles just channels

[somber garden]

Well now that section is showing up weirdly enough

[loud crown]

can anyone make sense of the bepinex start up window

[weary island]

Yes.

[loud crown]

i sent you an image

[weary island]

Got it. I've never seen that error before. But the first thing I'd do with that, would be to re-verify the game files and delete and re-install the BepInEx mod. But it could also easily be caused by one or another of the mods it's trying to load. If so, you'll need to load/disable them one at a time to find the culprit.

Good luck with it!

[somber garden]

damn seasons mod is broke in the PTB :C

Planbuild
Seasons (Shundai)
BuildPeices
EpicLoot
VikingsDoSwim
Use tools in water
More Ore Peices

those are all broke from my 100+ mods

(for anyone wondering)

[weary island]

That shouldn't be a surprise. Mods haven't had enough of a chance to even start to consider the updates that would make them compatible with the Ashlands update, which doesn't even have an ETA actual date yet to be a game patch..

[somber garden]

ye im suprised as many still work

I see a cookie in chat 😮

[daring basin]

I need to update BuildPieces because the planters broke.
Other than that all mods works.

[somber garden]

yay

reminds me of minecraft lol having to wait for every mod to update to play haha

[daring basin]

Not sure if you can play on stable if the mod has been updated for Ashlands.
Might be better to wait for Ashlands to come out to stable before updating my mods.

[somber garden]

good point

you could work on the update in free time so when it does release you have all your mods ready for everyone

[daring basin]

Oh yeah, it will be updated the moment it goes to stable.

[somber garden]

🙂

[karmic frigate]

anybody know a good modpack for modded valheim ? that even works? thx

[weary island]

It would help if you told what modpak's you've already tried and didn't work for you. Otherwise, you could just go to thunderstore.io and search modpaks there for those updated since April 10th.

[karmic frigate]

Heyo i didnt rly tried to play a modpack bc all almost evertime i tried a modpack i got the issue that i cant create a character

[weary island]

Unless you've had exceptionally bad luck selecting modpaks, and are ignoring their update dates, the problem is sounding more and more as though it is with something you are or aren't doing with them rather than caused by them. All modpaks aren't bad. Most modpaks aren't bad. The modpaks that are bad aren't those that are currently updated by their authors.

Please explain exactly what happens when you try to create a character with modpaks. Have you been trying to use modpaks that include the ServerCharacters mod in them without you knowing it? And are you using a mod manager with your modpack experiences?

[karmic frigate]

Hey yeah the proplem was, that everytime i tried to create a caracter, no button/slider would work,and all the characters i had, had the same skin. It was like, that all the progress on all character was just deleted. And at the start i tried the Vortex mod launcher but now im on the r2roadman launcher

[weary island]

Which modpaks caused the character creation problem?

[thorny arrow]

I'm not sure if all these packs are ready after the last game update to 217.46, but if they aren't now they will be updated eventually..

[hearty sphinx]

Noone should be using mods in PTB anyway.

[stiff phoenix]

Once the mods are ready for Ashlands, Ill try and look for an actual RP group.

I enjoy playing with my bros but theres always that one dude who tries to cheese everything and rush the game. Like that dumb sledgehammer silver trick

[restive summit]

Anyone tried any mods with Ashlands PTB?

[sage harbor]

To be fair, it's still useful to try out mods in the test build so you can figure out ahead of time what mods will still work and what needs fixing up

Specially so if you made a mod of your own

My own got broken by the previous patch
but it's been overdue for a overhaul for awhile now so I was expecting it to break eventually by the time ashlands came out

[hearty sphinx]

Oh, for mod builders I agree. I was more thinking of the fact that any feedback from someone with mods could be down to the vanilla game OR the mods which makes it kinda useless to the devs.

[sage harbor]

Yeah, if you plan to give feedback to the devs then having any mods can taint your feedback

[novel cairn]

Target Portal does work on the PTB, and is an unofficial solution for the named portals being broken there, especially useful on dedicated servers with multiple players where a constant relog wont work.

[hearty sphinx]

Relevance?

[novel cairn]

Players were asking for solutions earlier, a moderator wanted this answer placed in this channel not the PTB channel, also a few messages up someone asked if any mods worked in the PTB.

[hearty sphinx]

But I was talking with LocalHyena in the context of actual beta feedback.

[novel cairn]

got ya, saw you placed the shrug icon on my mine so thought your word "relevance?" was a response

[modest rune]

server devcommands not working no longer? cant enable my self in fly mode any longer

[hearty sphinx]

Are you on the PTB? As I imagine most mods are broken there.

[restive summit]

Server_devcommands v1.77.0 by JereKuusela should work with PTB, a lot of mods actually work on the PTB, compiling a list now

[modest rune]

still on vanilla not ptb

[daring basin]

Nice, all my mods works on Ashlands and I only have to update MagicalMounts, PortalPlane and Buildpieces.
This to fix the non-clickable build menu and the planters but the rest of the mods doesn't need updating.

No, but the error is annoying.

Alright thanks

Someone know mods quality of life or visuals mods for valheim?

[somber garden]

Quick stack store

Seasons (Shundai) this mod over the other one is more QOL i feel like because it doesn't actually add textures
BoesBeforeHoes (pickup some arrows and quivers)
Minimal Status effects (effects under minimap)
recycle n reclaim (Get 50% materials back for old items)

Looking for mods that is like precise rotation which isn’t working. Anyone know of any good ones that are working? Trying to build a non janky ship

[spiral jasper]

If I install the FastTeleport mod on a dedicated crossplay server will Xbox users benefit from the shortened teleportation time?

[weary island]

No.

[spiral jasper]

Dang, thank you

[nimble minnow]

I’ve installed monsterlabz, got to a portal which brought me on some floating island in the sky. There, a stone tells me “enchant iron sword with the hand of frigga”. I’m very confused, what am I supposed to do?

[weary island]

I'm only guessing here but I'd suggest going back home until you get an Iron Sword and the hand of Frigga. 😄

[nimble minnow]

Got the iron sword part but, what dahell is a frigga?? XD

[weary island]

Frigga? She's an 8-legged mini-boss with her own cave, IIRC. 🙂

[nimble minnow]

Real?

One from hildir? Had no idea thanks man

Ah no i see! Basically the normal red runes stones give you actually the location of this miniboss, which is a special cave in the Black Forest somewhere

Damn I had no idea

Is there a way to recognize or find that rune stone? From a video I checked, it seems identical to the normal ones

[weary island]

You probably could find it with devcommands but it's better to just do the exploring. You might run into another mini-boss or two on the way. And, if you want to meet some new friends, do some exploring at night, too.

[nimble minnow]

Oh hell naw I started rushing to bed as nigh falls since day 3 xD

[somber garden]

Anyone know mod like sears catalog that works with PTB?

Finding that most of my mods work but can’t place anything they add because sears catalog is broke xD

[daring basin]

It works and the reason you can't is because those mods with custom categories needs to be updated.
I updated my 3 mods that used custom categories before.

[somber garden]

The only error I’m getting was from sears catalog weird

Like item drawers from my mistlands world are still there and function right but I can’t place anymore than what I already put down

[echo oriole]

Hello vikings,

is there a mod where i can copy something that i build in world "a" and past it in wold "b" ?

[coarse arrow]

Is there any mod that makes you start with nothing in your inventory, no torch, no rags?

[daring basin]

InfinityHammer, copy, save as blueprint, paste in new world.

[coarse arrow]

I think there are several mods that do stuff along those lines. I believe "BuildShare" is the most popular one. https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/5

[coarse arrow]

There is also PlanBuild. I've barely even tried either of these, and not recently, so I'm not sure which you'd wanna go for. But as I understand it, BuildShare is a pretty straightforward copy tool, whereas planbuild has something to do with creating a blueprint that helps you replicate a building preset, bit by bit, but you still have to build and pay for it, so it's more immersive while being a quality of life improver. Or something like that, IDK. https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1125

These are probably on Thunderstore as well, take your pick.

[echo oriole]

thanks for your help. Awesome!

I have installed the mod BuldShare und Bepinex.
but i cant close the console in main menu.

[coarse arrow]

Might be the mod is out of date. Kind of looks like it, the versions of the mod I'm finding are pretty old it turns out. Oops. Bad recommendation on my part perhaps.

Infinity Hammer should be up to date, and for the record, is generally a great utility for removing object, and rescaling objects. It's finnicky, but actually really liberating to be able to modify the dimensions of objects, let's you make stuff like 1.5m stairs, and other oddly proportioned pieces.
Also, PlanBuild looks more up-to-date compared to BuildShare, so that might also be an alternative.

[echo oriole]

i'll try. Thank you

[surreal gull]

are there any mods that increase the rate of gaining skills?

[thorny arrow]

This: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/AzuSkillTweaks/

[faint prairie]

Anyone know if there’s a mod that ||clears the mist after you’ve defeated the queen?|| (mistlands)

[supple eagle]

Does epicloot work with the latest update?

Because im using thunderstore and i got 17 mods and when i launch it only launches 15 mods and CraftingWithContainers and EpicLoot gets some erroes in bepinex cmd thing

And the mods i have is like warfare, epicloot, monstrum, recycle, archery, odinship, warfare epicloot support

so all of them is kind of connected and some are just different and shouldnt intervene i think

[tranquil shell]

Whats the mod that lets you use a bunch of portals from one?

[weary island]

This one does that https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Smoothbrain/TargetPortal/

[tranquil shell]

ty!

[nimble minnow]

Mr @weary island , sir, sorry for the direct ping but perhaps you could help.. these rune stones are not findable. I even tried the code to find them with cheats such as “find runestone_meadows:spider” as I saw in a video but this option doesn’t exist. Welp

[daring basin]

Hello, is there a mod to reduce the portal use cooldown?

Also, does anyone know if theres a mod to auto harvest pick ups like berries, mushrooms, sticks, flint, etc. with a chest?

[dim bobcat]

hey guys, does someone knows if the "smarter containers" mod is working on PTB?

[tame niche]

Hi all, kind of noob question here, I was playing on a server that had a loot multiplier (times2) , I have my own server now, how can I do that loot multiplier? Also, the one I played on was serversided only, no need for clientside, thats what I am looking for

[dim bobcat]

check the dedicated server guide, i think it'll help you

[cedar sigil]

Isnt that just in the world modifications before going into a world?

[tired crescent]

Shouldn’t be using mods on the PTB unless you’re testing said mods.

[tame niche]

I figured out its normally the headless_server bat file but I am on a rented server and there is none

[dim bobcat]

Doing that rn

[weary island]

Sorry for the delay. We are in very different time zones, apparently. My morning coffee is just heating up now. 🙂

Which mod do you have that creates the spiders? If it's the monstrum one you may have to run their commands at the F5 console to create them in your world. You can go to Therzie's discord for the full instructions on that here:
https://discord.com/channels/1038699531023425606/1053253641571684363

[nimble minnow]

Yep it’s 6 pm here almost, europe ^_^
I have both monsterlabz and fantasy creatures, not sure which one it is. Will try that discord

Edit: your link doesn’t work

It might also be something weapon related tho, I really don’t know xD

[daring basin]

DefendYourBase and Horem are the Discord you need to join if so.
Monsterlabz have spiders.

[weary island]

Well, the monsterlabz mod introduces new creatures including spiders. And according to the mod's web page instructions:

"A handful of the creatures spawn by default, for the rest you can configure the spawns with spawnthat or use a configuration manager ingame"

I don't know if monsterlabz mod uses rune stones or not. And I don't know if the spiders would appear by default or need to be configured in.

[willow wyvern]

anyone know is theres a mod or command that removes the need from foundation support

[nimble minnow]

Wierd thing is that in the map you now have this kinda well with a portal at the end, that brings you on some small floating island that has these red runes tones which give hints about making enchanted weapons with the trophies of these minibosses

And I haven’t activated anything so it would be wierd that for the minibosses you would need to

[daring basin]

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

[weary island]

Did you start off with downloading a whole modpak? If so, which one? I've been to that well you describe but I can't remember which mod adds it. It may have been kg's EnchantmentSystem. 🙂

[willow wyvern]

Thank you 🙏

[nimble minnow]

I’ve downloaded one mod at the time. Worst thing it happened was to need to download dependencies but I don’t think that’s the case

[reef sky]

I am encountering error with PlanBuild - Is it okay to ask here?

[weary island]

Sure. Go ahead.

[reef sky]

I couldn't craft the special hammer, I was able to craft blueprint

But when I was trying to use anything in the blueprint the log is complainging baout this

[Error : Unity Log] FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'MMHOOK_assembly_valheim, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.
Stack trace:

[weary island]

Are you using the thunderstore.io r2modman mod manager to download and manage your mods?

[reef sky]

no i am using vortex?

it is the first time i use mod for valheim (or any games) so it is very likely i messed up something

[weary island]

Vortex doesn't work well for Valheim. I'd just delete the entire Valheim folder and re-install it from Steam. Then, go to thunderstore.io, download and run their r2modman manager. Explore around in it a bit to see how it works and then find and load your mods from inside r2modman. It just works and make it much easier to deal with the mods. 🙂

[reef sky]

thank you so much! I will defenitely give it a try - do you happen to know whether the same mods would be available on thunderstore.io too? I am using craftfrom container, mass farm, plant everything and Planbuild

[weary island]

Yes, they're all at thunderstore.io, too. 🙂

[reef sky]

great! I will try it now

[reef sky]

Thank you so much, r2modman is great!!! Vortex was so painful, i tried all night and this morning T_T

[daring basin]

can someone help me get mods please

[lost monolith]

does torches eternal and plant anything work on the public test?

[teal swallow]

Are there any good mods to try?

[weary island]

Yes. What kind would you like?

[teal swallow]

there is any like enemies or content mod ?

[weary island]

To to the thunderstore.io site and select Valheim community and then select modpaks. You can find some good ones at the beginning of the selections. I personally like Relicheim but there's other good ones, too.

[teal swallow]

ohh thats better a mod pack

ty

[nimble minnow]

@weary island Since that you got invested I assume, I'm here for the final chapter of my modding troubles xD
Turns out that I found this epic guy who made a video where he explains everything.

It would be good imo if this kind of info would be pinged here or saved somewhere so to avoid identical questions over and over. Idk if you have any say on this or how things work here, but here's the vid. Big thanks for wanting to help me btw!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIBvQBkRYEM&t

[weary island]

That's good info. Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately, I'm not in charge of anything around here. They do let me out for meals, an occasional nap, etc., etc. 😄

[nimble minnow]

thx a lot solved! Also hey, you are the guy from magical mouints! Great job thanks for modding valheim ^_^

[wide forge]

is there a mod to speed up plant growth

[thorny arrow]

Plant Everything can

[languid hamlet]

might also look into Farming and Foraging by smoothbrain, it's a little more immersive by working for gains, and part of it has plant speed. configurable.

[dull trout]

How do client side mods work does everything need it for it to work?

[weary island]

Not everything. Just the game it's installed on.

[dull trout]

I meant to say everyone on my hosted game

[languid hamlet]

he knows, just hadn't had his coffee yet, i'm sure lol.

clientside tho can be just that, on the clients, but some can be installed on server to enforce configs.

[dull trout]

so if i play with a client side mod do my friends need it install?

[languid hamlet]

negative. you can have it without them having it also

[dull trout]

do the mods effects work for them or just me?

[languid hamlet]

For the most part, it should only affect you. Might be some issues with how Valheim has multiplayer set, and who "owns" the zone you both are in. If it seems glitchy, try to space yourself from another player and try again.

[weary island]

Exactly right. Morning coffee still brewing... I had to hurry so I just answered the question he asked. Not the request for complete information he implied. You can dock my salary for that one, if you wish. I notice that even now you're still fielding his subsequent questions. I hope you got your morning coffee in, anyway. 😄

[languid hamlet]

I'm not actually much of a coffee drinker, but today, I think I'm making an exception XD

[somber garden]

@tired crescent Your modding tutorials is everything still the same i've on the first video for getting into modding

[tired crescent]

The initial ripping process is different, but basically everything after that is unity anyways. So yes, some of it is very similar.

[somber garden]

Could you tell me what changed with ripping?

[zinc halo]

Guys is there any mod or anything that would let me see which mod makes my game stutter in every second or two? I have 40 mods installed so far and want to know which one causes such massive cpu/ram usage and lags

[stiff phoenix]

It can be any number of things. For example, items in storage in your base could do it. Have you checked the logs? You open up the Unity/Bepinex log by alt-tab, and usually it will show red text if something is amiss.

[zinc halo]

No red text, i have 6700k instances at my base

[zinc halo]

Despite having pretty decent rig that should be able to run this game even without minor stutter, i had to cap the fps to 60 even in vanilla game, because i was getting a bit annoying stutters and fps drops. After installing bunch of mods, the stuttering and lags got way worse

[stiff phoenix]

6700k instances could be causing it maybe, but if youre capping at 60 and even having stutters in vanilla... hmm, thats strange

Cant think of anything else, sadly.,

[languid hamlet]

Do you have a craft from container mod? I hear they can bring down performance when there are so many items in nearby chests and it's constantly doing checks. Not verified, just what I heard.

[zinc halo]

Yeah i do

[languid hamlet]

Number of moving objects nearby, like a large farm with animals and crops can pull it down as well.

[zinc halo]

Its one of the most important mods for me, makes my life 100x easier

No crops or animals, i guess there are too many variables in my scenario and everything little by little

Brings down the perfomance

Even the vanilla game isn’t stable enough to not have fps drop on rtx 4060

[stiff phoenix]

Wait, hold on.

Youre having drops on an rtx4060? What CPU do you have? How much ram?

[wooden apex]

Ashlands has somewhere between 5k-8k instances per zone, building any sort of base of significant size will likely lag the player

I'm no modder, but I think the instance count is caused by the trees in Ashlands being literally on fire rather than just a smoldering texture. Being able to turn off this fire would be huge for instance count Id guess

[granite mural]

Wouldn't it be because of the ash rain particles that sometimes come out?

[wooden apex]

Probably a combination of both

[dense viper]

Man I badly need a mod that has door with the wood plank texture so I can use it as a hidden wall/door

[surreal gull]

i tried the first one out and it worked well, thanks!

[tired crescent]

I can help more another day. In the middle of finals right now.

[granite mural]

Hello guys, would I be able to use mods in my own server if it's not dedicated? If it's possible, can anyone tell me how?

[silver mantle]

does anyone know how the percentage based sleeping mod rounds?

like if the ratio was 75% how would that apply to having 2, 3, and 4 people

[zinc halo]

i5 12400f, 16gb ram

[tired crescent]

Which one

[molten tendon]

If they will not fix it we will need new build peaces retexture mod ASAP, to fit the game aesthetics :]

[granite mural]

Anyone?:(

[granite mural]

May I have that one please?:p

Will there be any inconvenience with the game if I use mods, but normally play on a friends server(local, not dedicated)?

[languid hamlet]

Using either the thunderstore or r2 mod manager, you can create separate profiles to load different mods. Make one for yourself, and one for your friend's server.

The one for yourself can include client and server side mods, as you are the server in 1p. Others should also have the server side mods to join you.

The one for your friends server should be limited to client side mods, assuming your friend doesn't have any server side mods. If you're friend does have server side mods, then you would need those as well to function properly.

Read each mod carefully tho, there will be tags under each mod name that identifies if client and/or server side. And as a general rule, make sure they are up to date.

[granite mural]

Thank you so very much for that info, it’s that I don’t really know about mods in any way, so I don’t know how to use them or set them up.

In that case, what would be better, thunderstore or r2 modmaganer?

[clear lily]

They are kinda the same thing, Thunderstore Modmanager includes overwolf (advertisements) to help support their site while r2modman doesnt include overwolf.

overall they look and work the same

[granite mural]

Thank you. Could you recommend me any good mods, kind of like just for improving the vanilla experience?

I was checking AzuExtendedPlayerInventory

[granite mural]

Can someone let me know how do I edit the variables of a mod with bepinex? It's my first time modding something, and I do have the AzuSkillTweaks mod, I just want to edit it so I don't lose any skill point on death,.

[languid hamlet]

There's a few ways, but the simplest for you right now is probably just use the config editor in the mod manager.

[devout plank]

Keep getting error harmonyx wont work. Yet i dont believe im using Valheim plus?

Ashlands support the use of mods?

[weary island]

Are you using the Vortex mod manager? That doesn't work well for Valheim.

The PTB version of the game doesn't support mods.

[sharp aurora]

No version of the game support mods

[devout plank]

So is this run at own risk or did i set up Thunder store wrong? Did update from last august

[hearty sphinx]

Run at own risk. And chances are any mod from last August is probably completely broken by now.

[midnight birch]

Hey everyone ive played games a long time and valheim for 1000+ hours im looking into building my own mods can anyone point me in the right direction on how to get strated and learn a bit about how to build mods for valheim?

[devout plank]

Thank you

[daring basin]

What kind of mods do you want to make?
Do you want to add features, systems or more add items, weapons, creature and such?

Either way, there's a guide on how to get started with Unity and Azumatt has coding templates.
I do recommend joining one of the modding discords or mine and I can guide you on how to get started.

[midnight birch]

Do you have links to the guide and discord? I just wanna learn mostly probably start with simple mods for now and eventually end goal is adding different building stuff and features

[daring basin]

I'm honestly not sure if we're allowed to link to it or invites but check my Discord profile!

[weary island]

This post from @thorny arrow might be helpful. #mods-discussion message

[brittle plume]

anyone know the mod that lets you add all fuel/ores/etc. into kilns, furnaces, etc.? forgot the name of it

with shift + E

[tired crescent]

AzuCraftyBoxes, ConversionSizeAndSpeed...etc.

[weak quest]

Hey all, I've been considering doing another playthrough of valheim but am interested in a vastly different experience... I know there are all sorts of mods out there that give the game more of an RPG/MMO experience, curious if anyone might have a modlist they might recommend?

I know there's mods for things like monster drop/rarity weapons, weapon enchanting, skill trees, class mechanics, etc.

Not really looking for just one or two mod recommendations, but rather a list of mods that work well together for this type of overhauled experience.

[weary island]

I like the Relicheim modpak for that. And there are others too at thunderstore.io. Search there for modaks and see what comes up.

[weak quest]

Thanks, I'm looking at this and Midgar now, have you tried midgar as well?

[weary island]

No, I haven't. Just make sure it's currently updated and supported. 🙂

[weak quest]

Yea definitely, I was looking at Journey to Valhalla, which was the most downloaded one but that one has been deprecated, Midgar is currently the most downloaded updated mod pack.

But it doesn't us Epic Loot like Relicheim, and neither use Valheim Legends (The class system mod)

[weary island]

Well, they're free to try. If you don't like one after a day or two, ditch it for the other. 😄

Oh, and you could probably add the Valheim Legends mod to them, if you wanted.

[weak quest]

I've thought about it, but both mod packs are huge so not sure about compatibility and overall game balance as well. Figured I'd try to find a modlist that has already done this, which is what I'm liking about the Relicheim description, is it seems they've tweaked loot/drop tables to make you feel like less of a god with EpicLoot

[weary island]

Aye, and they do use Wacky's MMO mod so it's kinda like a class system but not actually.

[weak quest]

how so, is it just like a global skill tree or something instead of classes?

[weary island]

Yeah, it introduces an 'experience' skill so that you're weak until you gain experience as you level up.

[weak quest]

ah, so im guessing just a level system that lets you put points in stats like strength or dexerity i presume

[weary island]

I'm trying to remember, I think it does do that.

Or maybe I added that mod later, I can't recall... Sorry.

[weak quest]

all good, i appreciate the insight regardless

[cedar sigil]

Anyone knows a mod that works with the PTB that enhances stamina usage?

[real pier]

anyone know of a good map mod?

[devout plank]

Got bunch of new mods. Lol! Some one fixed this is Sparta Kick

[tired crescent]

Don’t play modded on the PTB

[stiff glade]

Why not?

[hearty sphinx]

Because it ruins any potential feedback.

[tired crescent]

The Valheim Dev themselves state that you should not when testing the PTB. The PTB is meant to be testing for vanilla issues so they can release the content faster to the live branch. If you are using mods, you are therefore invalidating all of your tests and any bugs that you might experience. Plus the PTB is technically a beta test for a beta game and you’re using mods potentially in beta for the beta for the beta. Get it?

The PTB is not a means of getting access to the content early simply so you can play it. You were meant to be playing the content and figuring out what is wrong or any bugs and report them to the devs. By using mods, your invalidating anything you might find as a “bug”, and making the content release actually take longer. Less people testing vanilla and giving good feedback to the devs simply means they are either having their time wasted by invalid bug reports, or having to delay the content because they are having to wait for good feedback to push it out and fix bugs.
So in short, if you're playing modded, you're on your own and taking your own risk. Any bugs you find/have, that's on you.

[sharp aurora]

And most mod authors will not publicly release mod updates for the PTB

[stiff glade]

The Valheim devs state that the ptb is also there to just enjoy the content, it is in the pinned messages in #valheim-public-test.
Straight from the pinned messages there:
"Should I opt-in the Public Test branch?
If you are prepared to encounter some bugs or crashes, made backups of your save files, and want to support Valheim's development - or just want to explore the new content - you're more than invited to opt-in!"

So you don't need to report issues if you don't want to.
It invalidates nothing if you play with mods or not if you don't give any feedback.
If you are using mods on the ptb you shouldn't be posting feedback unless you have checked it isn't mod related.

Where do they state that you shouldn't use mods on the ptb?
There is even a section talking about mods "Will my mods break". That says that most mods won't work with the ptb version but some popular mods might get updated to work with the ptb but they aren't officially supported.
I agree that if you are using mods on the ptb it is asking for problems and you are on your own and shouldn't expect people to take out time to help you.

[stiff glade]

True but since the ptb is also just there to enjoy the new content, you aren't required to give feedback if you play on the ptb.
So if the person playing with mods doesn't give feedback what is the problem?

[hearty sphinx]

Nothing, but you know how much people pay attention to rules.

[languid hamlet]

Taking no action means you are one less person that could give valuable feedback and allow the content to be pushed faster so mods could be updated for that version and everyone can enjoy as it's intended and not in a perpetual beta state.

[hearty sphinx]

The game has never been in a perpetual beta state.

[languid hamlet]

Not what I said, exactly, and was responding to judge.

[stiff glade]

Again the ptb is there to just enjoy the content as stated in the pinned messages, so it is ok to not report any issues and not give any feedback.
There are people enough that do.

[sharp aurora]

Technically it has been in a beta state since it's been released

[hearty sphinx]

No, it left beta in 2021.

[sharp aurora]

Early access is considered beta/alpha

[stiff glade]

Early access isn't the same as open beta.
Beta doesn't mean in development.

[tired crescent]

In the pinned messages

[stiff glade]

Where exactly, got a quote?

[tired crescent]

Pinned messages of the PTB channel.

#valheim-public-test message

And has been stated in plenty of other ways/times

[stiff glade]

I don't see them saying that you shouldn't play with mods in the pinned messages.
Maybe I'm looking over it, so mind giving me a quote so I can look more specific?

Found it the very last message in hte pinned comments if you scroll all the way down, before that you come accross the question "will my mods break" which implies a kind of ok you can use mods but ...

[tired crescent]

I did

[stiff glade]

Sorry for the confusion, I was reading dvoids message instead of smiffe's small one right under it.

They do also state:

Will my mods break?
The majority of the mods won't be compatible with the Public Test version of the game. However, some popular mods might get updated to function even on the Public Test branch. The respective mod authors are responsible and keep in mind that mods are - in any case - not officially supported.

So there is a bit of both.
Though as long as the ones using mods don't give any feedback about problems they encounter I still don't see a problem with them using mods on the ptb.

[hearty sphinx]

See, in principle I'm entirely in agreement with you. I just think having a hard and fast rule makes it easier to follow than leaving it up to players to decide if their feedback is mod related or not.

[tired crescent]

There is no “problem” per se. However asking for mods for the PTB is a waste of peoples time and efforts. They directly state it’s enough for them to handle. Visa versa for mod devs. It’s also enough for us to update mods and get them working rather than answering PTB mod related questions all the time. Easier to simply state don’t use mods on the PTB. Waste of time to state otherwise or help you fix issues. Most people aren’t like you are and will immediately post bugs etc. “why doesn’t this work” blah blah blah

In the old days, you’d be banned for even talking about mods in the PTB channel.

[nimble minnow]

darn it I really didn't want to ask again I thought my problems were solved, but nope.
Monsterlabz, minibosses which thanks to their loot give the possibility to enhance the iron sword.

I've killed Frigga, the first one. Got the trophy but on the floating island I have no idea of how to transform the iron sword in enhanced iron sword. I've seen somewhere that there should be an obliterator on the altar where you put items in and then it creates it. Ofc I've tried to build one myself but yeah, now the trophy is gone xD

ANyone knows how to make this darn mod work? It's driving me crazy

Context info: I'm using valheim without the ashlands upgrade, installed upgraded world and synced everything..

Winners gets a free hug

ok fine I'll even double that, two free hugs!

[daring basin]

You can always join his Discord to get help with his mod.

[nimble minnow]

yeah I'll try at this point..

[stiff glade]

Oh I agree, if people want to use mods it is on their head and should make it work themselves and not bother others with it, unless some mod author does want to put in the effort.
They also shouldn't come complaining about bugs or problems they have with the game without first figuring out if it isn't a mod causing the problems.

Still if people want to use mods on the ptb let them as long as they don't bother others with it.

[tired crescent]

I mean. It’s not like I can stop them. But I responded to a person asking about mods for the PTB. Again, waste of time to attempt to help them find one.

Since it’s recommended by both parties (devs) to not use mods on the PTB. My response was to not use them on the PTB

I'm also coming from the mod dev standpoint where I deal with multiple people a day asking the "what is wrong" type of questions and posting PTB issues with mods.

[sharp aurora]

Seen one of them people yesterday running 13 mods on the PTB asking why it wasn't working

[tired crescent]

If I could post screenshots in here, I'd show you at least 3 from the last 24 hours that I know off the top of my head in the modding discords.

One even asked how I knew they were on the PTB with mods.

[sharp aurora]

I haven't seen that many but I'm also not in a lot of the valheim modding discords, have seen a bunch of people that know they on PTB and posting bugs they finding with mods on it

[tired crescent]

I mean it helps to some degree to know which mods are broken on the PTB from the users that know which mods they have installed and which broke...but the generic questions are a waste of time, sadly.

[stiff glade]

Some people sadly don't have an ounce of logic.

[tired crescent]

I'd argue that's most people nowadays

[stiff glade]

I don't see a problem with people using mods on ptb, I do see a problem with people complaining about it and wanting others to fix it for them.

[tired crescent]

which is typically the route it takes. So, better to nip early.

[nimble minnow]

your advice worked, managed to make it work thanks again!

[sharp aurora]

Yeah, but most can't even tell you what ones they have loaded, always need to get there log file 😂

[stiff glade]

Educating people is also a route to take but harder.
Give a man a fire and he will be warm for a day, set a man on fire and he will be warm for the rest of his life or something along those lines.

[tired crescent]

and we have a bot that luckily parses their logs now for faster helping.

[tired crescent]

In this case, not true considering you'd be educating every few hours a new person

Never give them fire to start cooking with, then they can't burn the food.

along those lines.

[sharp aurora]

Yeah I have one in a discord I'm in, it shows mods installed. But only really post about errors it finds from one mod

[cedar sigil]

Simply Stamina seems to work fine, atleast less stamina used with running and a difference between spotted and unnoticed

[gritty elk]

Anyone know a good mod that's up to date that I can use to adjust the speed of things like the fermenter and smelters?

[tired crescent]

ConversionSizeAndSpeed

[devout plank]

Had to delete 90% of mods. They got a mod to use materials in box for crafting

?

[weary island]

Are you playing on the PTB version of the game?

[devout plank]

Yes on ashlands test server.

[timid shoal]

Very, very few mods work on PTB.

[devout plank]

Seems like alot of mods that give epic gear or norse god abilities are nixed

[daring basin]

This update was extremely mild, majority of mods didn't even need updates.
I thought Ashlands would be another major mod apocalypse but nope.

[devout plank]

I havent been playing in 6 months think update was extreme for all the mods i lost.

[daring basin]

Not this update specifically as there's been previous mod killing ones.

[sharp aurora]

Most updates to valheim breaks a few mods

[nimble minnow]

I guess it’s because it’s all about adding instead of fixing existing features? And such features are not been considered by any mod ?

[daring basin]

Yeah, of course some mods broke but it was not a major mod apolacalypse like I thought and some mods just needed to be recompiled etc.

[nimble minnow]

What’s gonna be the name of your book mod? Also what do you have in mind when you said “books that you open and have effects”?

Could it be a tool for other mod makers so to use these books for some sort of quests?
Simplest thing I can think of, you enter a dungeon, open the book in the right spot (some big hall so there is space) and a Mini boss appears

Could this mod maybe also have treasure hunting maps?
I mean there are tons of possibilities tbh

[daring basin]

Not sure atm.
With the Marketplace any items can be quest related but sure!
Exactly, books that exist in the world like pieces, you interact with them and something happens.
A lot will be on the players side what they come up with but I could imagine guides, treasure notes etc.

[sonic dew]

Booking.com

[nimble minnow]

About treasures, instead of just giving away the existing ones (like in the meadows, that you find with the wishbone anyway) it would be cool if by installing the mod, the world will be upgraded by adding such treasures around (sorta like monster labs does for its minibosses, it wil create new caves etc around for you to find)

[daring basin]

Yeah but that's things the player can do themself, same with quests etc!

[nimble minnow]

Sure depends on how deep you want to go with it

I hope they can be freely placed around like any construction object instead of having to build one of those mug keepers

Odin barrel transforms x amount of berries in a barrel full of it (just visual), perhaps a nice idea could be similar? If you have 1 book, with the hammer you can morph it in 1 book item that can be placed

Cool for shelfs

[daring basin]

Yeah, like I wrote in the screenshot channel.
Each book/scroll will have an item variant that you use to write and read and then a piece variant you place like a building piece.
Some book pieces will then be interactable and will do something, could be a simple effect, play media, cause damage or whatever.

[nimble minnow]

Sounds like a very interesting way of doing it 👍

[lean crater]

Is there a simple mod replacement for Expertmode? CLLC is way too complicated. I have no idea how to setup the stars of specific mobs in there.

[umbral dew]

Hey so I'm trying to get rid of the glowing effect on the draugr fang, since its transluscent and kinda right where you're looking when aiming. I've found 2 mods and they are both 2 years old. It seems like its a simple texture thing, is there any other way to go about this?

[thorny arrow]

Did you try the vanilla world modifiers? There's a couple different harder difficulties to choose from now

[thorny arrow]

I think fashionheim has versions of the glowing weapons without the effects. I think you'll need to spawn them in, they might not have recipes. Or configure them with wackys database

[lofty crater]

Hey guys, can someone tell me if there is an working multiplayer friendly copy/paste building mod?

[weary island]

Yes, there is. Planbuild. I use the current version regularly and it works fine for me. It has some great terrain tools, too. Add it to the server and your game client. And set it's default build mode to "Direct" in it's config file. Or you can use Ctrl+Enter to place the blueprints in Direct mode as well.

[lofty crater]

actually i'm playing on a friends world, does that create any trouble?

[weary island]

If 'playing on a friends world' means that your friend is hosting the server, then he needs to put it on the server and you need to be an admin there.

[umbral dew]

ok good news, it does! Like you said I did have to spawn it in. Bad news, Its not letting me upgrade it.

Scratch that figured it out and spawned a max leveled one to match the vanilla bow I already have. Ty for your help, saves me a literal headache

[keen willow]

Time to start rebuilding my modpack for the ashlands update. Did a full playthrough on the last version of the pack with a group of friends so ive got a pile of lessons learned and balance alterations to apply.

[granite mural]

Guys why do I get this message from the console whent rying to spawn something?

[Info: Unity Log] TMP_Input can't handle null eventData in curren package. Can be ignored atm though. Exception: Failure has occurred while loading a type.

[weary island]

One of your mods is out dated. Are you playing on the PTB?

[granite mural]

No

[weary island]

That error is generic. You'll have to find the out dated mod and remove it. It appears to have been caused by the recent patch of April 10th, which broke mods. The mods have mostly been fixed since then but one or another of your mods needs to be updated by you.

[granite mural]

I have no idea on how to do that

[weary island]

Are you playing on a server or on your solo game? How many mods do you have installed?

[granite mural]

My own

But i can't use devcommands for anything

Or is it the bepinex console I'm opening?

[nimble minnow]

Praise the Jaga, helper of noobies

[real pier]

I recently had a similar issue, went through and tested each mod one by one to turn them back on. it was irritating, but some of them were in fact dated and one really nie one I fell in love with broke the console.

[zinc halo]

guys have you tried any of the mods so far with ashlands ptb releases? do any of your previous mods did work without any update?

im just wondering

[weary island]

I'm on lunch break. The noobies will have to hope someone else comes along... 😟

[languid hamlet]

Send me your log, I can take a look while Jaga away

[thorny arrow]

If you haven't solved this yet, this is the debugging guide for that issue: https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Client-Troubleshooting#terminal-errors

[granite mural]

Was solved already, thank you!

[stable condor]

anyone know the fix for this error with willybach Hd mod

I have reisntalled the game complete and only installed the latest bepin ex mod only. Tried willys bach newest version medium and high. I am unable to load into the game at all

Preload data is missing. it should walys be there. Failed to initalize player

also tried with custom textures mod installed. Still get the same error

[lean crater]

only the temporary 3,6gb version is working atm, also check the mod page on nexushub; the data structure changed

[empty cargo]

i'm looking for a mod only for regen stamina while idle in water

[languid hamlet]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/blacks7ar/VikingsDoSwim/

Has a few more options than just stam regen, but it's configurable.

[empty cargo]

not working as intended

[main sundial]

Sounds like you need to troubleshoot, cause that mod does indeed work. You're not on PTB are you?

[somber garden]

Doesn’t work on PBT you’ll start teleporting in the same spot

[main sundial]

Yeah PTB isn't for playing, it for testing, and for modders to get their mods ready 🙂

It definitely works on 217.46 though

[languid hamlet]

Works perfect on our server. I agree with next comment about troubleshooting.

[empty cargo]

thx

[somber garden]

Yea it works on latest but sometimes it’ll bug out and fuck your game up

[heady stirrup]

Whats the best texture mod?

[somber garden]

Anyone know of a mod that allows hotbar scrolling w scroll wheel

[zinc halo]

Guys do any of you know the equivalent mode for automatics? It hasn’t been updated in 7 month and just recently it broke in recent ashlands patch, automatic pricessing no longer works https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/eideehi/Automatics/

[tired crescent]

How would you even want that to work? Since in this game scrolling zooms out.

[somber garden]

idk holding shift while scrolling

[tired crescent]

So, you'd swap weapons while running and attempting to zoom out?

😄

[somber garden]

idk i just wish i could scroll thru hotbar xD

more of a accessibility feature having to reach the top of my keyboard to hit numbers sucks

[weary island]

The ashlands patch isn't ready yet. It's only for testing not mods. There's probably a few that might work but it's just a lucky few. If you're playing on ashlands, you're supposed to be testing the vanilla game not using mods.

[devout plank]

Im using mods got 19 to work

All wirhin 2 weeks since released

[zinc halo]

Thanks for suggesting what i should be doing in ptb version of ashlands, i already know that. My question still stands and im just curious if any kind if equivalent mod exists or not. If you can’t add anything useful to my question, move along

[weary island]

If you're using mods on the test server, you're just wasting space. It's only there to test the vanilla game.

[tired crescent]

No, all mods would have to be updated for Ashlands that typically do that feature since a lot of internal RPCs were changed.

but I agree, you should not be playing modded on Ashlands PTB as you're not helping push the update faster.

[devout plank]

How would i help? Over 10 million copied sold

[tired crescent]

By testing the update, playing vanilla...reporting issues. The expectations of the PTB when you signed up for it.

[weary island]

You find vanilla bugs, you report them, they fix them. Pretty simple...

[tired crescent]

The faster they find bugs and get them fixed, the faster everyone can play the update we have waited 2 years for.

[zinc halo]

I gurss you are right, but i have played this game for more than 700 hours, im at the point in this game where anything related to smelting and feeding/sorting stuff or crafting from boxes makes me outright nauseas especially having little to no time to do anything because i get to olay this game 1 or 2 hours a day and if im spending that time just on preparations and mundane stuff, idk

[devout plank]

I waited 6 months. Just a noob. Way to late to this game

[tired crescent]

Sure, but you could always test vanilla PTB and help the content come out faster. So that mod authors (like me) who have already got their mod updated for it can push it to the public.

[zinc halo]

I know what you are saying and i also know that i have no excuse to use mods in ashlands version of the game, i get it.

[tired crescent]

AzuCraftyBoxes is already ready to push the update day1. However, I cannot push it to Thunderstore/public modding sites because people will attempt to use it on the live game.

[devout plank]

I really thought by know this would be added to base game

[tired crescent]

They have actively stated they will not add it.

[zinc halo]

Well i used it anyway and it works

[tired crescent]

But it doesn't. It deletes items when attempting to put them into smelters, ovens etc. You even confirmed that with your first statements.

it only works 80-90%

[zinc halo]

I use automatics+your crafty boxes mod. Maybe automatics isn’t broken and its the crafty boxes mod interfering with it

Im gonna test that out

[tired crescent]

Nah, it's any Craft from container mod or ones that patch into the smelters, ovens etc. They changed the internal RPCs that count as "adding fuel" or "adding ore"

The simple name changes of those mean we are sending invalid requests to the network and thus, it fails to "send" your items into the respective stations.

It's like going to a workplace and asking for someone named "Fuel" and they go "I know an AddFuel, but not Fuel...sorry, can't help you."

[zinc halo]

Lol yeah i totally get it

[tired crescent]

Done, check thunderstore in a few

[somber garden]

👀👀👀👀

[somber garden]

@tired crescent ty works well

[somber garden]

Any plans on an updated modding series?

[teal swallow]

Does anyone know a way to increase the fps by playing with mods, I have some fps drops that I didn't have before 😦

[daring basin]

Remove mods.

[somber garden]

How much fps does mods tank

[wooden apex]

Reductive

[main sundial]

every mod takes some fraction of fps - how much depends on the mod, what it does, how it was made, etc

[wooden apex]

Its one of those things where experimentation might be necessary to find which mods are slowing down your game

[hearty sphinx]

Yet valid.

[wooden apex]

You don't know how to reply without snark anyways

[hearty sphinx]

You haven't seen me snark.

[wooden apex]

All you do is snark my dude, its not like its an open secret everyone knows it

[main sundial]

You are 100% pure liquid snark.

In a good way 🙂

[wooden apex]

But this is the mod discussion channel, so lets keep it at that

[main sundial]

Ooof, I get enough of that in #valheim-chat

[wooden apex]

Yeah I be turnin the tables on people always tellin me to discuss mods in here

Mod Suggestion: Turn off burning trees in Ashlands

[hearty sphinx]

That's what we were discussing wasn't it?

[wooden apex]

No you were supporting a reductive argument about just removing all mods, instead of getting to the meat of the persons issue

Cuz we all know you dont like mods so Idk why you're in here anyways

[hearty sphinx]

I think they said there'd be a world modifier for that.

[hearty sphinx]

Without a full list of their mods it's the only foolproof way to achieve their goal.

[wooden apex]

World modifier doesn't turn off ashlands burning trees

[hearty sphinx]

Fair enough, I hadn't actually tried it.

[keen sand]

if anybody gets a chance, could they dm me to help me out with a modpack i created. I'm new to modding on valheim and don't really know what I'm doing in terms of troubleshooting; I'm using thunderstore because i have more experience on it, but I am willing to change. (i will also post my mod list and issue im having in #mods-screenshots )

[weary island]

The problem is that one or more of your mods is old and broken. Go though them one at a time and any that haven't been updated for Hildir's request would be suspect first. Remove or disable them one at a time and test the game to see if the one you removed fixed it.

[keen sand]

I'm assuming i would see if they have been updated through the mod website?

[weary island]

Yes, it's very easy to do that if you are using the thunderstore.io mod manager. If you happen to be using the Vortex modmanager, scrap that and start over.

[keen sand]

yeah vortex is mid for valheim, figured that out the hard way. I will check the mods now, thank you.

[weary island]

Good luck with it. I know it's tedious and frustrating. Hang in there... 🙂

[keen sand]

all good, i have around 300 hours in modded RoR2

[weak quest]

Is there any decent mod to make the mistland's mist a little less...."intense"

[weary island]

You could search for "mist" over at thunderstore.io and see what's available there. I know there's a couple mods that remove the mist but I'm not sure about just making it 'a little less'. That might be harder to find.

[fringe whale]

Can I use mods while playing the Ashlands beta version? Given their updated to work of course. Asking because I tried using vortex and thunderstore but couldn't get my game to load with either of them.

[weary island]

You can use mods on the PTB (Ashlands) but you're encouraged not to as it's for testing the vanilla game, finding bugs, and getting them reported and fixed. And, just so you know, Vortex doesn't work well with Valheim at all. You best advice is to delete it and all it's mods and just start over with thunderstore.io modmanager. It's a bother, I know, but well worth the trouble.

[weak quest]

i've been using vortex and haven't ran into any issues yet

[weary island]

Marvelous. My advice still stands. You do you. 🙂

[daring basin]

Don't use Vortex with Valheim.
Use Thunderstore or R2modman.

[thorny arrow]

This is what I use, helps with motion sickness https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ComfyMods/Dramamist/

[somber garden]

Can’t even get the game to load when tryna use vortex

[weak quest]

roll back to the previous version of bepin

Click the "Update BepinEx" button at the top of Vortex

[untold meteor]

hey is there a mod that makes you archery camera less centered and more over the shoulder ?

[azure berry]

I would like that too, especially with the later glowing effects

[untold meteor]

thats literally why i want that lmao

cant see what im aiming at lol

[somber garden]

Hey im getting a Unity error "the project you are opening contains compilation errors" after ripping the game with asset ripper

[somber garden]

My scripts folder is also gone, so im getting the error "The associated script cannot be loaded" on assets

[main sundial]

You should follow the guide - there's quite a few tricks needed to get a working rip. https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Valheim-Unity-Project-Guide

[somber garden]

ty

[main sundial]

Sorry, that first link was a bad copy/paste lol

[somber garden]

yay no errors

ty @main sundial have not been able to get past ripping the game for past week xD

[daring basin]

Why not?

[visual portal]

Hello, is there a mod or addon capable of letting you know which item(s) a character hasn't made yet in the lists offered on the various crafting stations ? This would make it easier to keep track of progress.

[languid hamlet]

Almanac by Rusty has that feature, but it also has achievement bonuses that you may or may not also want enabled (e.g. killing Eik 10x will unlock a bonus that when turned on adds immunity to lightning, carry weight, etc).

[visual portal]

Ok, thanks for your answer 🙂

[zinc halo]

man, i can't wait to see seasonality updated for ashlands lol

id love to see spring in ashlands, or even winter lol

[main sundial]

probably because he wasn't following the guide 🙂

[wanton kernel]

Anyone know which CraftfromContainers to use? I see 3 from different users but similar time updated (Nov 23)

[zinc halo]

Azu crafty boxes

[zinc halo]

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

[fallow wolf]

Does anyone know of any mods that are just Server-side, because I'm hosting a server but I don't want anyone (other than myself) to download mods

[daring basin]

Then you need ServersCharacters and AntiCheat.

[loud lichen]

Hello, does anyone know if there is a guide to texturing for valheim?

Tbh any guides i’d like to look into

Cheers

[neon storm]

Hi Guys! I have a question! I have installed some mods with Bepinx

My friend needs to install same mods to play with me?

[white perch]

It depends on which mods you have installed .. your friend might not need certain ones if they're client side only.

[neon storm]

Day and Night mod changes, Stamina mod,Cart support and Circlet Extended

[white perch]

if your friend wants the same features you have from those mods, then yes, they should install them too. I'm not familiar with those mods personally, so I can't say 100% if they'll be able to join your world .. give it a try 🙂

[hollow olive]

How do you guys typically handle it when a new patch happens and you've got a modded world.
Save it and wait for the mods to be updated?

World I had before was mostly enabled by v+, so when I loaded into it it all came falling down. Don't want that to happen again 😅

[timid shoal]

Falling down due to change in world generation, will still happen. Regarding Ashland update, the devs have been quite clear that anything around the boarder zone (Ashland vs rest of the game), or in Ashlands, will change in the next stable update (after PTB is done)

Regarding your first question: Yes. Best way to continue after release of 0.218.x with modded world, is to not play it until your mods are updated. Will all your mods be updated with in a week? Month? Never? Maybe start preparing a version of the world where you have removed mods that you're are not sure will get updated within reasonable time.

[hollow olive]

Yeah I'm not exploring the ashlands at all, cuz i know it'll be changed later

It's mostly the need to not need support for everything I place that worries me.
Rest is kinda whatever

Wouldn't play the game without having the no break building

[weary island]

I think it depends on your individual circumstances. For heavily modded servers, I end up waiting a week or two before updating. For mostly vanilla servers, I go as soon as the one or two mods there are working ok. And depending on your particular mix of mods, some patches don't affect you as much as others do.

[velvet badge]

Hi guys i have a question. Do u know if popular mods like outsiders or epicloot mod work on ashlands public serwer or gonna be updated to work on this version or are they gonna update them after official ashlands version relesed?

[wheat cliff]

is there a mod that changes my character model to a cute anime girl

[sonic dew]

https://tenor.com/view/triste-gif-27628801

[undone osprey]

There was a VRM mod that did exactly just that. Not sure if it's working/maintained/where it is anymore.
Source: was hilarious to use.

[wheat cliff]

thats perfect, thank you so much

[wheat cliff]

ok boomer

[young moon]

yo is there like any character apperance mod? I just wanna have like more hairstyles and shit but cant really find anything

[weary island]

Try this mod. I'm pretty sure it's working ok. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/CrazyPony/CharacterEditButton/

[quartz estuary]

Hi, any experiences with Valheim<->Discord chat bridges?

Which mod would be best (or a good one, as "best" can be opinionated) to share statuses and messages of players on a Discord channel, for those not currently in-game (or, maybe to keep a small log)? I'm thinking something along the lines of EssentialsX Discord for Minecraft.

With a quick search I've found this one, which seems to tick all boxes: https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1551 - is it any good, bad, excellent, are there better alternatives?

[weary island]

I use that mod and it works well for some server status messages (server starting, server shutting down, players coming or going and server events. It includes player shouts but not chats or whispers. 🙂

[quartz estuary]

Thanks. I will give it a shot (or maybe others if I find any other good recommendations)!

[faint prairie]

Whats the average amount of time it takes for a mod to update after a major valheim update?

[weary island]

The amount of time to update varies too widely to be meaningful. You simply can't tell as a practical matter.

[faint prairie]

Okay yeah that makes sense

[gritty elk]

Anyone know a good mod that lets me change the color of the text on signs?

[weary island]

You don't need a mod to just change the color of the sign's text. Just put this in front of the text in the sign: <color=#FFFFFF> . The FFFFFF turns it bold white. You can google it for a color chart with other colors and their codes.

[gritty elk]

Really?! Holy crap, I never knew that!

[languid hamlet]

You can shorten that down to just <#FFFFFF>

[thorny arrow]

rich text for the win

[thorny arrow]

If you don't want to have to manually change all your signs there's these:
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ComfyMods/ComfySigns/
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/AzuSigns/

[gritty elk]

I was originally using ComfySings but I couldn't figure out if there was a way for me to change signs to different colors depending on what chest they were attached to.

[thorny arrow]

Same way as if you didn't have the mod, this just makes it easier to have the default be something else like white. But if you are setting every sign as a different color it might not help much

[gritty elk]

I like ComfySigns because it makes the text glow and makes the words more noticeable.

[undone osprey]

Turn on party mode and read how to use it.

[gritty elk]

If I have to input the codes to make them glow different colors then that's a small price to pay.

[thorny arrow]

I can barely read the vanilla signs 😅

[undone osprey]

Because it's a party 🎉

[thorny comet]

Are there any mods that can remove inventory slots? I'd love to use ComfyQuickSlots to get some tools off the hotbar but getting 8 extra spaces is ruining balance and I don't like it

[daring basin]

Edit the config.

[stiff phoenix]

Are there any mods that turn draugr villages into anime conventions?

[weary island]

Not yet. But it's only Tuesday so...

[steel hatch]

Hey guys, is there any mods that i can use to increase player limit on my server and a mod to be possible to create groups/tribes? Thx

[weary island]

You could use: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/MaxPlayerCount/

and : https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Smoothbrain/Groups/

[thorny comet]

what config would I be looking at to remove vanilla inventory slots

[celest sand]

any sort of mod that adds raid summons? it would make getting specific materials more consistent

[sonic dew]

That adds what?

[celest sand]

raid summons, like a craftable item that lets you automatically start a raid

i guess im so used to playing a game like terraria that i thought the term "raid summon" would be clear enough

[thorny arrow]

You can at the very least use the console command for that. Might not work if you want non-admin players to be able to do so on a server though

[celest sand]

yeah, true

[thorny arrow]

"Custom Raids" or "Expand World Events" can let you make raids more frequent, so I would check those out if you can't find what you're looking for.

[celest sand]

awesome, thank you :)

[sonic dew]

I've kinda wanted one of those as well

[sweet dome]

What language is Valheim written with? if I ever want to create my own mods...do I need any type of approval or key or smth?

[undone osprey]

It's in C#. You can start modding following some guides:

• https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki

[echo nova]

do you think the directional fighting system mod will break with the ashlands update?

I mean, I assume all the mods ever will break with the ashlands update

[vivid lodge]

anyone know a mod that lets you equip weapons and armor on enemies?

[sonic dew]

Yes

[opal mirage]

nope- the github tutorial has been updated for the new unity engine and thanks to the mod community, ripping the game is now easier than ever, that being said, i would wait for ashlands to go public if you havent already started a mod project with the current public release of the game.

[steel hatch]

Thank you!

[stiff phoenix]

Question about the Ashlands update. I assume that if I start a modded world now and don't explore all of it, the terrain would generate when it is released from PTB? Or would I have to use upgrade world?

[teal swallow]

Does anyone know what the 2 relics that you can build on the enchantment table are for? (For the EpicLoot Mod)

[thorny arrow]

Decoration, the red and blue crystal things right?

[weary island]

Yes, if the world's Ashlands are unexplored, they will auto-update when the server updates to the Ashlands release.

But remember that many of the mods won't work on day one of the update. So, it's probably a good idea to plan on not updating the server for a week or so until it's mods are working with the update. 🙂

[weary island]

Right. They just sit around and look pretty. But, at least, they don't eat much and annoy you when you're trying to watch TV. So, there's that...

[thorny arrow]

Who hurt you 😅

[rotund stirrup]

is there an updated craft from containers mod

[weary island]

For future reference, when you go to the thunderstore.io site, choose the Community button and join the Valheim Community. That's where the Valheim mods are.

[undone osprey]

You can also type "Thunderstore Valheim" into Google and see how its the top result.

[rotund stirrup]

oh i just missed it while going through their catalog

like looked thru all of the creators mods on thunderstore and didnt see it

[sterile slate]

Anyone else having issues with the Better Progression mod?

[stiff phoenix]

I assume that mods wont work for any xbox crossplay frens?

[weary island]

There are a few server side only mods that would work on a crossplay server. But only a very few. You can find most of them here:

https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Xbox-Compatible-Mods

And keep in mind that you can do a lot with world modifiers that don't need mods at all.

[icy halo]

like?

[sterile slate]

Nothing is happening when I kill the bosses

[teal swallow]

ye

[icy halo]

Mine doesn't seem to be giving me extra rows or Weight on the PTB either. I do have other mods on though

[sterile slate]

I have a decent pack to kind of make up for it would you like to see it?

[icy halo]

sure

[stiff phoenix]

Cool thank you. What is ZDO data stripping?

[weary island]

ZDO stripping happens during world loading. It stops the loading of unnecessary things in the world file that will be replaced anyway as the game/server processes the data immediately after world loading. It makes the world loading operation more efficient. At least, that's my understanding of it, anyway. 🙂

[stiff phoenix]

Thank you very much, very helpful!

[stiff phoenix]

@weary island I know I keep asking stuff but as far as servers go, is there a list somewhere of server hosts and their pros/cons? Ive used Valhost before but because I couldn't upload my own mods and it broke the world I was already halfway through I couldnt use it.

[white perch]

you should be able to google 'valheim hosting' and get some decent results

[weary island]

I don't know of any such list. I wish I did! Sorry. @white perch is right. Good idea. Just make sure the reviews are independent and reflect your location and any specific needs you may have. 🙂

[stiff phoenix]

Yup, doing that now. A lot of the advice is also "use second computer to host server" lol.

[weary island]

Yes, total control of the server hardware and software is great! I'm not entirely sure about the responsibility of it all, though... 😄

[stiff phoenix]

Well... that's the thing. The workstation itself is extremely powerful, but its from my work.

Plus my internet connection is really good.

[weary island]

Well, you know what they say, "Work and play mix extremely well!" At least, I think that's what they say. 🧐

[white perch]

@stiff phoenix i've personally used Shockbyte with great success, and I've heard GPortal is a good service too, but I'm not sure if those places are appropriate to you location wise

[languid hamlet]

I tried Valhost and wasn't impressed. I favor PingPerfect. Though it's priced a little more, I can access the server files via mobile and edit configs live through their UI. I can ban IP addresses, view log and console in real time or download, change the server commandlines, and see CPU/Memory over time in graphs. Worth it.

[stiff phoenix]

I see, good options! I think im gonna try making my workstation dedicated. Its got tons of performance but also I can install/update mods via R2Modman.

[languid hamlet]

The downside, you are your own support. When I have major issues, they are quick to respond. Just another thing to think about.

[weary island]

With r2modman, you're better off with Windows as the host OS than Linux. r2modman doesn't easily start up a Linux server, although it will certainly manage the mods for one. You'll just probably have to manually transfer them from the r2modman server profile to the server's BepInEx folders. Not a big deal but an extra step with Linux.

[stiff phoenix]

Its a windows 10 PC so that should be fine. Honestly though, I dont know when Ashlands will leave PTB, so I'm debating whether to do all this when it does, or perhaps just go vanilla for the first playthrough, especially since some friends want crossplay.

If I go the vanilla route and Ashlands comes out, its just a matter of updating the game, assuming nobody has explored those lands.

Once I get experience using the dedi server, the next playthrough can be modded.

[weary island]

If you go with the release version starting next week, you'll likely have a few weeks to get used to it and decide on any server mods you want to add. Then, a week or two after the Ashlands release, giving enough time for any mods you like to be updated, you can convert the server to the Ashlands release more gracefully.

Also, I personally like to install the dedicated server barefoot from the Steam client library rather than using SteamCMD or LinuxGSM. You'll learn a lot more quickly about the things you'll need to do to properly manage the server and it's options. That experience will benefit you greatly over the life of the server. 🙂

[stiff phoenix]

Edited, re-read what you wrote, makes sense.

[weary island]

No, the server would still be up and running on the older version of the game. The version we're all playing on now which will be the older version after the update. You won't need to take the server down at all. Just keep playing as you were and don't update to the new Ashlands version until a couple weeks after it's released. By then you and your players will likely have gotten used to the set of mods that you and they have agreed are absolutely necessary but which aren't yet working on the Ashlands release. 🙂

[long nacelle]

is modding huge on Valheim?

I want to replay but I dont want to play same game I want something that is same but new

[daring basin]

Yeah, it's healhty and active!

[long nacelle]

but is there some big mods

not just "hot fix" mods, like overhauls or content mods, something to really change game

[white perch]

yes, plenty of that to choose from @long nacelle

[long nacelle]

like what?

[terse wasp]

If you want to spice up the combat, you could try jewelcrafting. It adds a socket system to the game that you can access from the beginning. There's also plenty of mods that fill in weapon gaps or add new armors. If you want a mod that lets you interact with mob drops/damage/health/star limit of enemies, than I'd recommend Creature level and loot control (I will say a ton of people love this mod, but I personally am not a huge fan of it). There's a few mods out there that add content to certain sections of the game. Some QoL mods include; Craft from containers, speedy paths, shortcuts, equip wheel, auto repair and plenty more you can find by just looking for them. I'd recommend getting your mods from R2modman, I used vortex at first but a lot of the mods on their aren't updated frequently and the selection is a fair bit smaller.

[grizzled orchid]

for new content therzies mods are pretty cool, Armory Warfare and Monstrum

[daring basin]

hello, is there a mod that enables underwater camera?

[weary island]

This mod lets you go underwater and gives you the regular 3rd person view there. If you need a 1st person view, there's separate mods for that.

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/blbrdv/Aegir/

[daring basin]

thanks so much !

[icy halo]

Seems like the recent update fixed at least the carry weight

[sterile slate]

How about portals

[icy halo]

They work, I don't know if my UI mod is prohibiting the addition of extra rows

Without it on I killed bonemass and got a row, then killed moder with it on and didn't get a row

[icy halo]

do you know what bosses give you rows?

[sterile slate]

I think bonemass and the queen. Check the config on your mod manager

[icy halo]

It's bone and yag

[icy halo]

Everything else gives +25 carry weight except ashlands boss

Although I think you might be able to add them in the Cfg

[potent mulch]

guys, is there any mod to bring back the leg spreading of alpha days?

[granite mural]

Hey guys, is there any mod for icnreasing the amount of mosnters that spawn on the map?

[weary island]

Do you mean more of the same monsters that are in the vanilla game or new monsters?

[granite mural]

More monsters

I alr have extra monsters from other mods, but I'd like to hve more monsters spawned

I tried looking everywhere on CLLC but doesn't have that option

[languid hamlet]

Spawn That or Expand Spawn, not real familiar with how either work though, but should have README to follow.

Edit: Decided to dowload SpawnThat for myself, and after launching, a simple.cfg is created. Here, you can change the multiplier value for how many can spawn, group sizes, spawn frequency, etc for each mob in the game.

[faint prairie]

What's going to happen after Ashlands releases? Will all mods have to update in order to play or will they still be compatible?

[daring basin]

does anyone know a mod to add more build rotation angles?

not more pieces just angle

[weary island]

I like ComfyGizmo for that. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ComfyMods/Gizmo/

[tired crescent]

Maintained mods will likely update. Yes. The age old mods everyone loves using or mods by aedenthorn (and the reuploads of them) will likely not.

[merry totem]

if I were to install no weather damage as a mod would anyone else have to run bepinex?

[brave jolt]

If they want the mod. Then yes. They would need bepinex and the mod

[bold meteor]

is it my understanding that people cant paywall mods anymore? correct?

[kind pumice]

There's nothing stopping them, but fewer people are now out of respect for Iron Gate's wishes

[bold meteor]

i could have sworn they told people no paywalling mods in they game.

[kind pumice]

They did, that's the official stance, but that doesn't make it impossible to do or anything, and the practice continues still

[bold meteor]

yeah i recently came across many of mods by 1 person all being paywalled from mutliplayer servers unless u donate 10$ for each of them to use.

so wasnt sure if i should ticket them about that. but i will for sure

[daring basin]

Also don't forget to share with other people and tell them to not support this behavior.
Sadly people are still flocking to these two creators not knowing better.
Thunderstore should not allow mods that require payment either.

[jagged grove]

Is there a mod that allows you to see all items from your Misc/Crafting tabs? Or at least to separate it by pages?

[daring basin]

Are you asking for a mod to combine all tabs into one or a mod that shows more pieces in a tab?

[kind pumice]

Spent my nights these past two weeks getting PlantEverything ready for Ashlands, averaging ~3 hours sleep a day. I'm happy to announce it's finally ready. Just need to do some finalizing once the update is officially out.

I'm going to bed now though and have RL obligations that take precedence but will have an update out within 12 hours from now if it drops today. Peace.

[stiff glade]

Thanks for all the work you do even if I don't use mods.
A whole bunch of people do appreciate the work you do and if I ever do use mods, yours will be one I'll be using.
Now of to bed with you!

[astral light]

how do i unistall mods completely?

[long nacelle]

I will have to wait

[clear lily]

How did you install them?
most of us use r2modman or thunderstore mod manager, so to disable all mods we just use "start vanilla" or create a new profile without any mods.

however, if you installed mods manually, tossing the mods right into the games folder, then you may just want to delete or rename the games folder in steamapps and verify the installation so it downloads a clean version.

you could also edit the doorstop config to prevent bep from running, but usually just doing a clean install is better.

[astral light]

thank you

If devs will not fix ashland build pieces textures, we will need a mod for that 😄

Is there a mod that can capture the (missing) items needed to craft something? I have everything in chests but I'm getting tired of using pen and paper to make a list so I can collect everything in one pass through the storage area. I would prefer not to use a craft from containers mod, atm.

[harsh canopy]

Right? That and the time between the PTB and full release. Now I have to figure out how to update the vanilla dedicated server I made this weekend.

[open dome]

Hello, modders! We want to save some structures from our world that collapsed underneath us and fell into the sea when we loaded the Ashlands update. They were up north on our map in the mistlands, so we thought they were safe. They were NOT. I was inside a huge resort building when I logged in and heard this horrible sound I couldn't identify until the floor crumbled out from under me and I fell a few stories into the sea.

We have a vanilla world on a hosted server at the moment. Our host does allow mods. We haven't used them before. I got some recommendations to use PlanBuild to blueprint the structures from our backups and move them to somewhere else in the new world files.

Anyone have a better idea or warnings about this plan?

[long nacelle]

Did anyone ran that mod that lets you build your own ship on raft?

I plan to use for my next game when it is updated but I would to use few more mods so Valheim really feels like adventure what do you have to reccomend?

                DoSomething();
            }
            if (Input.GetKeyDown("Y"))
            {
                Debug.Log("Y key pressed.");
                DoSomething();
            }
        }

        private void DoSomething()
        {
            Debug.Log("Doing something.");
        }
    }
}

That's a minimal reproducible example... I know I shouldn't need to create my own gameobject and nested monobehaviour, but it was an experiment. OnEnable is being called correctly, but the keypresses arent detected

[undone osprey]

Okay so you'll want to actually use the method version that uses KeyCode https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/KeyCode.html.

if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.PageUp)) {
  // Do the thing.
}

[tired crescent]

Do the Roar

[ruby grove]

no luck with this either 😦 I am referencing UnityEngine.InputLegacyModule.dll, is that correct?

[undone osprey]

Switch to ZInput if this is a Valheim mod. Patch into FejdStartup.Start() as a postfix and create your object there. You're probably running into the resource loader that happens now at game start

[ruby grove]

This sounds complicated 😄

it seems like Update isn't even being called, even though OnEnable is

[hardy shoal]

Help pls

[weary island]

Find the mod on thunderstore.io and see the info at the bottom of it's icon in the search results there.

[hardy shoal]

Most of them have both client-side and server-side in "categories" though

[weary island]

That means that the mod could work for either. But for some mods, when you put them on the server, they demand that all players have them, too. Other mods don't. And, sometimes a mod will let you 'sync' it's configuration for all the players by setting an option in it's config file.

[hardy shoal]

Thanks for helping ❤️

[glossy lagoon]

anyone know if mods are working with ashlands
im having a hard time setting up a modded valhiem server

the server starts but when i try join client side it says incompatable version

[narrow dove]

Planbuild is blowing errors when I load up the game. I think it's causing deconstruct to not work too...

[glossy lagoon]

[Info : Unity Log] 05/16/2024 00:12:43: Peer 76561198063915456 has incompatible version, mine:0.218.15 (network version 27) remote 0.217.38 (network version 20)

[Info : Unity Log] 05/16/2024 00:12:44: RPC_Disconnect

the error thats causing me to not be able to connect but i dont understand it

[daring basin]

It means that your client and server are not on the same version.

Your server is not on Ashlands but your client is.

[stiff phoenix]

Dunno if I asked this already, but I am interested in using Upgrade World on a vanilla dedicated server. I read the guide, but I want to make sure I understand correctly: with only mods installed on the client/admin machine (mine, I assume DLLs in the plugins folder) and the mods (bepinex, serverdevcommands, upgrade world DLLs) installed on the dedicated server machine... I would be able to set a specific range around the center of the world, where I can regen the entire world outside of that ring? This is EA and it has been updated with Ashlands.

[sage mauve]

i am also seeing this

the errors in console

[daring basin]

Correct.

[sage mauve]

i am also seeing MissingMethodException in console, constantly looping, when using ExpandWorld

[daring basin]

That means you're using the wrong version for your game version.

[stiff phoenix]

Thank you, awesome! I'll message again when the time comes since Im not sure how to set the exclusion range.

[languid hamlet]

You can also use cronjobs to do it automatically on a schedule, fyi

[sage mauve]

although i understand that MissingMethodException can be indicative of wrong versions, i am certain that this is an error on latest official version and latest ExpandWorld modpack versions

[Error : Unity Log] MissingMethodException: Method not found: System.Collections.Generic.List`1<RandEventSystem/PlayerEventData> .RandEventSystem.RefreshPlayerEventData()
Stack trace:
(wrapper dynamic-method) RandEventSystem.DMDRandEventSystem::UpdateRandomEvent(RandEventSystem,single)
(wrapper dynamic-method) RandEventSystem.DMDRandEventSystem::FixedUpdate(RandEventSystem)

i assume Jere is aware of it or will be aware of it, seems to update stuff quickly

[daring basin]

Not indicative, it literally means you're using a version of a mod for the wrong game version.

[surreal gate]

i need question, can you have any mods to NPCs, i play with my friend, but we are make a lot of houses, it is empty, is there any such mod
sry for my bad english

[still spear]

I saw a mod for that, I can't quite remember its name, but for what it's worth, the mod you want exists.

[narrow dove]

I seem to have a more recent version of R2modman installed than is available on their website by one digit. Planbuild was last edited in April so maybe I wait to see if Planbuild will get a new update due to Ashland release will fix things. 🙂

[stiff phoenix]

whats cronjobs?

[sage mauve]

MissingMethodException literally means that there is code somewhere trying to invoke a method that hasn't been defined. a lot of times, when valheim devs release an update, they change some methods that used to be defined. some of the methods that used to be defined, are no longer defined in the new update. so the mods need to be updated to use the new methods that the valheim devs changed to. in this case, it's probably that planbuild and extendworld have not yet been switched to new methods in the ashlands update

cronjobs means it's a code you can run on a schedule, so you can say run this code every 2 hours, every day, etc.

[languid hamlet]

Another Jere mod, allows setting up automatic commands on dedi servers.

[still spear]

If you just type the word NPC in Thunderstore you get multiple options, here are the ones that looked good.

[weary island]

Yay!! All the mods on my RelichrimPlus server are working again already! Happy, happy server!

Thank you all! Each and everyone of you behind those 58 mods gets a big wet kiss! 😹

Hey! Where'd everybody go...?

[tired crescent]

lol

[modest wyvern]

can anybody tell me why i cant git rid of this issue on my thunderstore got 4 mods i wantet and now just always this red error

[tired crescent]

Likely because you're using mods that aren't updated for Ashlands.

[craggy linden]

It's called... waitforit AllTameable(TamingOverhaul) 😛

[craggy linden]

And people wonder why half of my modlist is just Azu's stuff 😄

But fucking props Azu!

[modest wyvern]

no like not the game the launcher itself is doing it it dosent let me downlode mods anymore

[gloomy sorrel]

does anyone know when configure manager will get updated to work in the latest update

[craggy linden]

This one works fine or do you experience issues? https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/Official_BepInEx_ConfigurationManager/

@gloomy sorrel ^

[gloomy sorrel]

it opens but there is nothing showing up and 99% of the mods that use it are updated, so idk what happened

[craggy linden]

By pressing F1?

[gloomy sorrel]

yea

[craggy linden]

SP or server?

[gloomy sorrel]

huh?

[craggy linden]

Single player or server?

[gloomy sorrel]

both

[craggy linden]

Do you have a log?

[gloomy sorrel]

[craggy linden]

Post the log in User>AppData>Roaming>R2ModmanPlus-Local>Valheim>profiles>nameofyourprofile>Bepinex

At least, are you using TS?

[gloomy sorrel]

[craggy linden]

I'm not familiar with errors, but I can check some things in the log.

Learned a few tricks by now :vv:

Mainly because I botched up myself.

[gloomy sorrel]

where do i put it?
