ew

[sleek otter]

so for those seeking the one line answer of how to revert steamcmd (servers) to pre-bogwitch:
steamcmd +force_install_dir "$installDir" +login anonymous +app_update $serverAppId -beta default_prebw validate +exit
the important bit being -beta default_prebw

[weary island]

Thanks for sharing that. I know that's gonna come in handy around here. 😛

[sleek otter]

shouldnt Traders Extended show up in ConfigurationManager? even if its just to say theres no controls?
also: is there a repository of custom json/yaml or whatever for merchant stock lists. (i want to buy seeds, thats about it, but if theres a walmart list of eeryhting available i'd like to peruse it)
[edit]oh... im using the version updated 14 hours ago ... ah HA... bogbitch strikes again

[shell shadow]

Woaaa I loaded the game and it spun around like crazy and I couldn't move xD EquipmentAndQuickSlots definitely not updated yet, holy I got dizzy xD

[sleek otter]

lol, try the fancy lighting one, you are suddenly surrpounded with a million replicas of your charactef on every surface

or one of the recycle ones: you wake up with munin flapping wildly inside your head AND everything is spinning

[shell shadow]

hahaha

I've been wondering, the valheimplus grantapher temporary, is does it interfer with many other mods, or just some?

[sleek otter]

it astounds me that they can alter a games core, for updates, so much that it breaks almost all mods... i mean really? i know bepinex is pretty much just hacking inot the engine, but still... what are we doing here reading memory directly or somehting equally chopshopish?

V+ ...no idea

[weary island]

Well the code in the mods needs to be compatible with the code in the game. If the game changes certain code elements, then the mods have to match that or they break. Obviously.

[shell shadow]

Yeah, this is something I dont get either.

[shell shadow]

Sure, but how is it necessary to change game code so much that for example equipmentandquickslots dont work?

might be more to it than I understand though

[sleek otter]

as above, i suspect bepinex is literally directly accessing the games memory, so any change they make to it will alter the offsets of those locations.... i cant imagine anyhting else that would be so disruptive

[weary island]

It could be changing code things like adding new class categories for items or actions or visual effects. Or maybe new division headers similarly. Any mods using the old ones would break.

[sleek otter]

or coders revising function names at a whim

[weary island]

Doubtful. Changing anything makes extra work. No one likes that or does it without good reason. And Valheim is an 'early access' game so changes are inevitable.

Gotta break eggs if you're gonna make an omlet. 😛

Morpheus is calling... Catch ya later. 😴

[daring basin]

@weary island If you want to have a chance to test something wild in MagicalMounts I accidentally left it in... You know what it is!

It's not done though!

[smoky geode]

Any good modpacks to try out ?!

[daring basin]

Thank you so much

[weary island]

Sure. DM me. 🙂

[small wind]

Anyone knows if an update of gizmo mod or similar one is planned ?

[daring basin]

No like, I accidentally left it in the version I uploaded to thunderstore

[weary island]

Oh, ok. I'm gonna name him, "Charon". And pet him. And hug him. And tell him he's a good boy. 😛

[daring basin]

Just know he's not done yet but just wanted to give you a chance to try it out at least.
Maybe it gives you inspiration or ideas for something you want.

[civic cypress]

Hey question: does bepin ex need to be updated before mods can be used again or is the mods themselves being updated enough?

[clear lily]

Bepinex shouldnt require an update, it's the mods that do.

[civic cypress]

Thanks, do you know if all mods need to be updated or just ones that have bigger changes?

[clear lily]

I don't know of many mods that didnt break, so I would suggest making sure that you find updated or wait on mod authors to update - often they list a means of contact such as discord that you can find out if they are working on an update.

[civic cypress]

I appreciate it, i usually only play with a few QOL mods like speedy paths, compass and tree respawns (for my no map world) and none of these have been updated. It does however seem that they work after updating Jotun lib. ill have to run some tests

[clear lily]

very possible that they work then, JVL or jotunn is a lib that authors can build their mod with, if that is updated then mods built on jvl should work.

kinda funny that I used to call it the retirement home for authors, cause they can build with jvl and quit modding so long as jvl is updated, but now I'm starting to wish for retirement of updating.

[sudden reef]

Ha, it's called divided responsibility. It's intentional to have a common API so that mods only need to update if their parts are out of date

[hazy glacier]

Yeah, I think any mods that I resurrect in the future, I will add JVL. I know a lot of modders are getting burned out on this game. They should definitely add JVL before leaving.

[sudden reef]

I mean, of course Jotunn isn't a silver bullet. But mods definitively tend to require less maintenance

[thorny arrow]

It is great for my purposes, I still had 5 mods to fix but not having to touch the ones that use Jotunn saves much time

[clear lily]

haha yeah, retirement home was just a joke, it's improved 100% since it first started and great for new or experienced modders.

the documentation is outstanding

though I do love the managers, sometimes knowing about a feature is finding out after requesting it, "oh when was that added?" like 10 updates ago, i just didnt document it.

[sudden reef]

Oh definitely, it got a lot of improvements in the past two years. The removal of mmhook and lazy loading of systems being the biggest one IMO. But well, I've basically re-wrote half of the backend

[ivory mason]

anyone know if they will be updating 'Better Archery'?

very popular mod with a lot of groups/servers

[hazy glacier]

Bows Before Hoes is an alternative if they don't.

[tired crest]

Yo guys why on thunderstore a mod says updated 25 mins ago but im rmodman its like 3 months ago

is it bug or i should wait ?

[thorny arrow]

Wait, the managers take extra time to populate with updates, sometimes a few hours

[tired crest]

can i download it manually

[thorny arrow]

yes

[ivory mason]

my bad; BetterArchery is actually not as popular as 'Bows before Hoes' and 'BowPugin' - recently updated

[clear lily]

the latter are just proven to be better at maintaining their mods.

[trim tusk]

what mod is everyone using for reverting the feather cape to have jump bonus?

[languid hamlet]

You can do that yourself with WackysDB, tho it's a steep learning curve.

[main sundial]

You can run @willow thistle, but you can't hide. Were you worried that Therzie might refund you, or just that he might retort?

Therzie's mods will be updated shortly. But you have alot of nerve, calling him lazy 😛

[ancient hawk]

imagine LOL was def rude

[cerulean talon]

wats the update today about? is it safe if im doing a modded playthrough

[daring basin]

No update today.

[cerulean talon]

#mods-screenshots

there is, i had to use beta build pre bog witch

[daring basin]

Not sure what you're talking about.
There was the Bog Witch and then a hotfix but nothing other than that.

[cerulean talon]

literally booted up steam today nad saw an update for valheim btw another person was claiming to done the same thing i did.

[daring basin]

Yeah, there was a hotfix after the Bog Witch which was 10 hours ago.

[cerulean talon]

is that the new content that everyone was talking about that needs mods updated?

[daring basin]

Yeah, you can see if the mods you use are updated yet but it might take a few days.

[cerulean talon]

lots of people claiming the same thing so ill just go ahead and play via beta pre bog witch

dont want to ruin my play through XD

[deep stag]

I am giving it a couple of weeks before I even attempt to update mods and the server. I prefer stability over bleeding edge.. I dont like to bleed. 😉

I am running 110 mods, so thats a few to wait on.

[cerulean talon]

if ur on steam just use beta branch

#mods-screenshots message

[past coyote]

Does anyone know any Gizmo alternatives that just add rotating on multiple axes that works with the new update?

[weary island]

This one is working for me with the Bog Witch update. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Tyrenheim/M3TO_Gizmo_Reloaded/

[past coyote]

Thanks a bunch!

[wise plover]

ComfyGizmo was just updated as well, works for me now.

[spare jewel]

anyone know when therzie's mods will work? playing prebog also isnt an option lol, the dependencies got updated and cba to go in one by one to downgrade

[weary island]

Doesn't Therzie have his own discord with support and announcement channels for you?

[spare jewel]

well yeah but all his links are expired, that was my initial plan lol so i couldn’t join

[weary island]

Bummer. I don't have him in my server list anymore but I'll see if I can find a link for you and let you know.

[spare jewel]

id really appreciate that, thank you kindly

[weary island]

Sent you a DM with the link to the discord for Therzie's mods. I can't post it here or the bot puts me on 'Timeout'.

[weary island]

I sent you this in a DM but I'm gonna post it here too in case anyone else wants to join Therzies' discord.

"Click the big round button at the lower left corner at the very bottom of your discord to discover other servers. Click the search icon in the screen that comes up and put in Relicheim. That should take you through the join process."

Hope that helps.

[undone osprey]

Comfy mods will be updated as I test and fix them over the next few days now that it's closer to the weekend.

[civic cypress]

ey any updated replacements for no rain damage?

[lilac lance]

Anyone knows of a good replacement for ValheimDefenders or NoobBallista? Basically a mod that lets you build ballistas from the early game on. Or perhaps a replacement for AdvancedTerrainModifiers that gives you a lower ground tool?

[timber canopy]

Does anyone know if this mod maker has a discord? https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Smoothbrain/Backpacks/

I downloaded the mod, upgraded the backpack but the upgrades make no difference

Also, I'm using the vanilla config that comes with it, I didn't see the need to make anything custom if standard works.

[clear lily]

they can be found in the OdinPlus disc

[timber canopy]

Could you DM me an invite?

Nvm, found through thunderstore on one of their mods

[honest ginkgo]

Anyone know if there's a mod that levels all of your combat skills at once?
Eg. Using a knife levels all your melee weapon skills, not just Knives.

I really dislike how once you start using a weapon type a lot, you're pretty much locked into it because you have so much skill progress in it.

(mainly dislike it because there's no ashlands tier knife, and theres a bunch of other gaps in weapon progression, like no blackmetal spear)

[hearty sphinx]

Just raise your skill using console commands.

[honest ginkgo]

Okay...

I suppose that works.

[hearty sphinx]

Seems easier than bothering with a whole mod, surely? Eh, maybe I'm wrong.

[honest ginkgo]

I guess it is.

[nova orbit]

Smoothbrain-SmartSkills fits the description. I don't know if it's working can't test it right now.

[honest ginkgo]

Alright

Thanks.

[honest ginkgo]

Anybody know how I would go about making a mod that would improve sailing with tames? I'm thinking I could force tames to be happy while on a boat, so they don't jump off, and I could potentially disable tames (specifically loxes) from damaging boats and/or all player built pieces

[daring basin]

Yeah, put them in a ball 😎 hint hint

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Meldurson/PortablePals/
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/CookieMilk/GottaCatchThemAll/

[stiff phoenix]

Did the new update break any mods? Was thinking of starting a new run

[hearty sphinx]

Of course.

[sonic dew]

Yes, all of them.

As it happens with every single update

[nova orbit]

Since then ~350 mods updated.

[sage wolf]

Anyone can Update the mod '' playerhead '' plz 🙂

[hearty sphinx]

I'd imagine the u mod author will

[sage wolf]

the author disappear

[stiff phoenix]

Do mods that make fires (torches, etc) last eternally cause FPS/instance issues?

[copper gazelle]

I don't imagine they would

They use the same visual effect (or they should)

[daring basin]

Huh, no he didn't.

[copper gazelle]

One of the weirdest breaks I saw recently was an inventory mod breaking all crafting

(Comfy Quick Slots)

[stiff phoenix]

The problem is that whenever my friend plays he gets terrible lag around me. This is for regular MP or dedi server, both on high speed internet. He claims it may be all the items I put in the chests but I dunno...

[weary island]

Something to consider... Internet connections that are high speed, even when tested by the user, may still have lousy routes to a particular destination. Lots of dropped packets, or just lousy hop(s), etc. in the route.

So 'high speed' internet is meaningless when talking about the comm link to a particular destination.

Also, does he notice the lag only when near you or only near the chests or only when near both you and the chests?

[stiff phoenix]

I believe only when near me

And thank you

[weary island]

Well that rules out the chests, anyway. So it's likely either yours or his comm link. That's assuming it happens only to him.

If both of you felt it, it might be something about the world. Like high instance counts or super active areas (Ashlands).

[stiff phoenix]

We never did Ashlands. I think that the best solution might be a hosted server from some company as opposed to the dedicated I run from home. I know some have mods but yeah

We both know how to use modpacks so if creating one is necessary but can be used on the hosted service fhats cool

[weary island]

Why don't both of you first try using the BetterNetworking mod (should be on the server, too). That's free, at least. And there are comm link booster applications he could try, too. Like Cloudflare's "Warp" app, which is free for personal use.

There are other service apps like the Warp app that you can find with a google search, if you want to.

[silver hound]

anyone kmow how to active the Goddes of death ???? its a boss fighjt mod

whats up

shess in the swamp

[simple jewel]

Hi guys! Im having issues whenever I equip my hammer. it drops my fps from 60 to 20 lmao.

[eager quail]

Sounds like a builder mod... Do you have build from containers with a larger radius configured?

[thin pike]

Hi everyone! Is there a mod that only displays crafting recipes unlocked in that world? Im using an old character in a new seed but i only want to see the crafting items i have "discovered" in that particular seed. Is there a way to do that? Thanks

[nova orbit]

to reset everything you have command resetcharacter in vanilla.
Or mod RustyMods-ResetCommands-1.0.1 - not sure if it's working with the new update.

[thin pike]

Wont that also reset my skills? (Thats the only reason i kept the same character)

[nova orbit]

yes so better use the mod, and backup char just in case.

[stiff phoenix]

[Warning: Unity Log] Internal: deleting an allocation that is older than its permitted lifetime of 4 frames (age = 11)

Is ths debug instruction something to do in the bepinex command line or windows command line?

can anyone tell me what would cause

to spam in my log? it's also loading every last one of my characters as the same bald man.
if i launch vanilla my characters are fine

[weary island]

Can't tell which mod is broken from that error but one of them is out of date or broken.

[deep stag]

is it confirmed that Marketplace is broken on bog witch?

[rocky roost]

is there a mod that makes so instead of having to make two portals with the same name and only being able to teleport through one another, you can make any amount of teleporters and teleport to any by choosing when interacting with the portal, or something close to this..?

[thorny arrow]

That's the idea behind Xportal and AnyPortal

[rocky roost]

thanks

[sleek otter]

@rocky roost lists.. pshaw! Selecting the portal on the map is so much better, plus of course you need to name precisely ZERO portals if you dont feel like labeling them https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Smoothbrain/TargetPortal/

[thorny arrow]

ope, that was the one I meant to put in my post, my bad, I get names confused sometimes

[sleek otter]

can anyone recommend a mod to specify where in my inventory i want certain things placed? i cont remember what it was called, and search isnt helping

[proper halo]

Hey, question for this mod
I'm trying out the dverger shape shifter, but I am always a naked dwarf - none of the human sized clothes fit me.

Anything I can do?

Also, the dverger models are all bald and have no beards

[daring basin]

Only the skeleton can properly use player gear.
All other models can equip but it will not be visually correct.

[proper halo]

Aha.
So nothing I can do with that for roleplay purposes then
Thanks anyway 👍

[worn girder]

how do i update mods for valheim or do i just reinstall them?

[daring basin]

Manual or modmanager?

[worn girder]

manual

[daring basin]

Then just redownload and overwrite :)

[worn girder]

alright, thanks 🫶

[worn girder]

also, do i need to reinstall BepinEx even tho i can still see the console on the top left when starting the game?

[daring basin]

Nope, BepinEx rarely needs updating!

[worn girder]

Somehow the CraftFromContainers mod doesnt work for me... I reinstalled it and other mods are working fine aswell

[worn girder]

nvm. Somehow almost all mods dont work for me. I reinstalled BepinEx and all the mods and it still is not working...

[daring basin]

Did you get it to work?

[worn girder]

nope

[daring basin]

Does BepinEx itself launch when you start the game?

[worn girder]

how do i know. U mean the console window?

[daring basin]

Yeah, the black console window that comes up when you start the game.

[worn girder]

ye, it opens. There is alot of red tho once load into my world

[daring basin]

Then your problem is outdated mods then!

[worn girder]

well ...

[daring basin]

Time to provide some logs 😄

[worn girder]

whats that exactly mean?

[clear lily]

are you downloading updated mods from Thunderstore?

[daring basin]

As in the BepinEx log so we can see your errors and help you.

[worn girder]

NexusMods

[clear lily]

Ah, not many of us upload there, idk, I would suggest using thunderstore, the first 15 pages or so are updated mods

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

[worn girder]

aha, okay. Thanks

i wil have a look and try to see if i finde the same mods there

[clear lily]

if not the same at least suitable replacements that have been updated

[daring basin]

You can also just use r2modman modmanager if you want it to be extremely easy and convenient.

[clear lily]

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

[worn girder]

i will try and follow this. Do my Worlds get deleted if i delete the Valheim folder?

[daring basin]

Nah, they're stored in the appdata folder!

[worn girder]

alright, ill send it then 😄

[placid hamlet]

Anyone know of any mods that help with transporting tamed animals?

[worn girder]

there is a mount up mod with which u can teleport tamed animals through portals

[daring basin]

I'm happy you asked!
You can use my GottaCatchThemAll to put your creature in a ball.
You can use MagicalMounts and then use the Cosmic Cell to put your creature in the cell.
You can use CarryMeMaster to pick it up by hand and then releasing it once you've gone through!

Oh, there's also PortablePals from meldurson you can use.

[worn girder]

@daring basin @clear lily Do i manual or mod manager download the r2modman?

[thorny arrow]

r2modman is a mod manager, manual download, unzip and install the program

Make sure you delete old mod files once you start using r2modman. If you're not sure which to delete just do the whole valheim installation and then verify your game files through steam settings -> installed files tab

[worn girder]

yeah, thanks. I am following this tutorial.

[weary island]

You can just delete the Valheim or Valheim dedicated server folders because your Worlds and Characters are stored elsewhere. Is that correct?

[thorny arrow]

yeah

[worn girder]

some mods that were updated today still dont work even with the r2modman Mod Manager...

[thorny arrow]

It's possible you still have old mods sticking around that are broken. If not we would need to see the bepinex/logoutput.log file to verify what mods are loading and the errors you are seeing

[stiff phoenix]

Yup, it's Valheim time.

[thorny arrow]

Mods check? lol

[stiff phoenix]

...Pls dont be broken, pls dont be broken.

[thorny arrow]

XD

[stiff phoenix]

Advize in the Modding Discord says that the memory leak issue is occuring to some folks per the Bog Witch update, and that it aint mod related.

Causes a few stutters in gameplay but otherwise not world ending. Not sure why but when I open my hammer menu FPS tanks too.

[worn girder]

how do i get the log? 😄

[thorny arrow]

From r2modman in settings find "browse profile folder"

[rotund stirrup]

whats the most up to date precise rotation mod all the ones i knew havent been updated in like a year

[daring basin]

Gizmo

[weary island]

The M3ETO ReloadedGizmo one is working for me.

[thorny arrow]

comfy gizmo should be updated now too

[rotund stirrup]

anyone got link

[thorny arrow]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ComfyMods/Gizmo/
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Tyrenheim/M3TO_Gizmo_Reloaded/

[rotund stirrup]

thankies

[stiff phoenix]

Bless Zarbows Defense Turrets. Holy hell this is fun

[void hemlock]

hello guys ! can some one can help me to instal mod , like valheim legend , ( i can share screen ) english or french 🙂 thx for ready

reading *

[weary island]

Best thing would be to go to thunderstore.io website and join the Valheim community there and then download their r2modman mod manager.

Spend a little time exploring it and seeing how the buttons work. You can go online and search for mods and then just click to install them. Install BepInEx mod first.

[void hemlock]

ty

[deep stag]

Has anyone tried the updated Marketplace mod on bogwitch? It loads and you can place NPCs, but even though the cfg files are correct. Yes, I did see the patch notes, and this is not the yaml config file, its the cfg files for the npcs

[nova light]

Is anyone here expierenced with the vikingsNPC mod?

Cause for some reason i get massive lagg when using it

[clear lily]

No errors? just lag?

[nova light]

Just lag

[weary island]

On your solo game or on a server?

[nova light]

solo

[weary island]

And your F5 console and your Player.log and LogOutput.log show no red errors at all?

[nova light]

No nothing, i also have a pretty decent PC and even on lower settings it shows lahg

[weary island]

The last time I used that mod, it worked fine with no problems. You can live with the lag for now or temporarily disable it until more mods are updated.

Alternatively, you could trouble shoot any possible mod incompatibility problems by disabling other mods and testing to see if you can get it fixed that way.

[stiff phoenix]

This has happened to me too. No errors, but a message saying some raider helm, etc

I had to disable it BUT... it is possible that the error is with the viking ship spawns. Tonight I will try shutting off all the ship stuff but leave raids and land personnel on.

In the meantime, does anyone have any other NPC mods? I know Horem has one but I hate the weird goblins it adds

[weary island]

Maybe you can turn off the goblins in it's config files?

[nova light]

Well the ships is the reason i wanted the mod XD

[stiff phoenix]

Last I checked I could not. Ill check if it has a yaml or json I can mess with.

[stiff phoenix]

I know, same. I absolutely love it. You can use valheim raft, zarkows defense turrets, and make a cool warship.

Firing guns and guided missiles at fools raiding my base is hilarious.

[nova light]

I have the odinship mod but i rlly wanted a excuse to build a ship with a ballista on it XD

[weary island]

That's good info. Thanks for sharing that here. 😛

[lean latch]

has anyone found out which mod is throwing
[Error : Unity Log] MissingMethodException: Method not found: void .Character.UseStamina(single,bool)
Stack trace:
(wrapper dynamic-method) Player.DMDPlayer::FixedUpdate(Player)
and messing up characters? i've been batch testing and cannot figure out which one is messing me up

[stiff phoenix]

Its a mod that messes with the stamina stuff. Do you have any mods that affect stamina?

[lean latch]

only evasion by smoothbrain that i know of but I still have the error with that one out

[stiff phoenix]

Was the config file deleted for it too?

[lean latch]

how can I check this? i apologize for my ignorance and appreciate the help
edit: think i found where to delete the config, trying that now

[stiff phoenix]

No worries, just hope it helps. The mods for Valheim are incredible, but for those of us who use between 80-100, theres always risk lol.

[lean latch]

Bepinex is still angry

i have 57 and bepinex is still upset with them

[stiff phoenix]

Wait. Do you use EpicLoot or any gear/magic that adjusts character stats?

[lean latch]

it's turning all my characters into bald men

I don't think so, i mainly use skill based or buildables

[stiff phoenix]

Hmm. Yeah Id have to see all the mods.

Theres a way to pull the debug list but I forgot how.

Some other folks might be on to help. Also you could check at the Valheim Modding discord

[lean latch]

I’ll have to look into that. I got my mods list pasted^ but it wouldn’t let me send as a new message for some reason? Had to edit it into the last one.

Try disabling the following to see if it works: Evasion, Vitality, PlantEverything, AzuSkillTweaks, Blacksmithing.

[lean latch]

same error, but one of those was causing the all characters being bald men. those were apparently 2 seperate issues

[nova light]

It also seems the NPCS are not mining or chopping wood even if they have the tools

they are happy

[stiff phoenix]

Yeah theres another mod like Chebs Mercenaries. Last time I checked they all worked.

[nova light]

It seems the VinkingNPC mod is broken then

[stiff phoenix]

Shame. Whos the mod creator?

Oh its in the Odins discord

[fluid storm]

Is someone knows a mod, which allow you to change amounts of portals you can place on map, or to make new restrictions?

[nova orbit]

Expand World Prefabs

[stiff phoenix]

Odin bless whomever updated Valweed. That mod is such a lifesaver

[shut fox]

I'm fairly new to Valheim and mods too, what does everyone use? Hoping to start building some cool stuff soon if anyone is down!

[thorny arrow]

Mods are very unstable right now because of the game update, just be aware some are still broken awaiting updates

[shut fox]

I'll keep that in mind thanks 🙂

[thorny arrow]

For building mods that are vanilla themed check out Missing Pieces. I personally love Clutter for adding life to builds too along with one of the newer Gizmo mods so you can rotate stuff in fun ways.

[wise plover]

As far as I've tried, Missing PIeces is still broken. Looks like no update for the last 6 months.

[thorny arrow]

I maintain that mod, it's working fine

It's possible another mod when loaded along side it is breaking it

[wise plover]

You're totally right, it's working again, I apologize, I didn't realize you maintain it! Must have been another mod that has since updated, I hadn't tried it for a couple days since the update. Thank you for your work!

[wise plover]

Kinda spoke too soon, nothings broken now, but any of those pieces previously placed haven't come back. Should I expect to have to rebuild those? I'm not familiar with how that part works.

[nova light]

Yea trying to find it. It was updated 4 days ago but it seems broken. No luck tho

I keep it disabled for now and see if it gets updated

[thorny arrow]

If you remove a mod with custom items and play without it you lose your stuff. Will have to restore a world backup or replace everything

[wise plover]

Gotcha, I figured. I better get to work then!

[fringe laurel]

Anyone know of a mod that adds more music to valheim that fits in ?

[proven gulch]

Hello, i rent server, and i put mod Extended Daytime, but nothing is changing :/

Move the contents of plugins folder into <GameDirectory>\Bepinex\plugins. i dont even have that file

i install it from thunderstorm

or maybee there is better mod for that?

[daring basin]

Sounds like BepinEx isn't installed on your server.
Which host you using?

[proven gulch]

well, we found the file, put in on server, but that mod feels like its bug, timer stops at 10:46-47, glitching and than go again

What settings is good, what need to change in that config file?

there is default 2 and dayfactor 2

[clear lily]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/castix/ExtendedDaytime/ this mod?
I wouldnt expect it to work, if it does it doesn't belong on a server, it's a client only mod.

you want to find mods updated in the last few weeks, not 3 years ago

[proven gulch]

yeah ,that mod, is there mod for server? i cant find any

[clear lily]

none that I know of, sorry

I always found messing with day/night lengths to have weird effects, like one person it ends up being day while it's night for me.

mods didnt always sync that great xD

[proven gulch]

ahh, sad :/

[clear lily]

I think ValheimPlus still has that feature, I mean like most mods, everyone needs it, it syncs with the server so the setting there is enforced.

[split ledge]

I’ve used Longer Days on a server in the past.

How can I add coins to the loot table on some creatures? I have downloaded Creature level and control, but i dont see where I can specify specific loot

[languid hamlet]

Check out DropThat, or even MonsterDB.

Thank you so much, this mod works 🙂

[stiff phoenix]

Whats the Mod that allows you to connect to portals like by... all to one or something?

[thorny arrow]

TargetPortal or XPortal

[stiff phoenix]

Either up to date?

[thorny arrow]

No idea

[languid hamlet]

Portal Stations is up to date.

[thorny arrow]

Do you know if Portal Stations applies to the vanilla portals too?

[languid hamlet]

Adds new pieces, so there is both. Doesn't affect the vanilla

does that affect braziers and everything?

[subtle nebula]

Hello, good evening, how are you, could anyone help me? I play Valheim on a custom map called “Santuario”, all terrains are modified with better continents mod. Will the new swamp NPC appear normally in the world, as I haven't fully explored the map yet, or is there a mod that generates new upgrade structures in locations that have already been explored?

[weary island]

The BogWitch_Camp location should appear automatically in your world as long as there is a suitable Swamp biome still unexplored for her to land in. If not, you can use the UpgradeWorld mod to add the location manually.

[subtle nebula]

@weary island Is this mod easy to use?

[weary island]

It is easier than some as it has some extensive directions you can follow. You can practice with it on a solo world to see how the Locations_add command works with it's 'start' and 'force' options per the instructions.

Before tackling that, you can use your F5 console devcommands 'find' command to see if the BogWitch_Camp already exists in your world. You'd need to have installed ServerDevcommands on the server and your game and be listed in the server's Adminlist file as an Admin there.

[subtle nebula]

Is there a video that explains how to install the dev command step by step?

I use Thunderstore to download and run mods, without having to manually install them

[weary island]

Is your server running on Linx or Windows? On your LAN or remote? Are you using thunderstore to use mods on your game AND server or just your game? If you already have mods on your server, just install ServerDevcommands like any other mod and make sure your Steam ID is in the server's Adminlist file.

[subtle nebula]

Windows, on my local pc

[weary island]

Are you using thunderstore to use mods on your game AND server or just your game? If you already have mods on your server, just install ServerDevcommands like any other mod and make sure your Steam ID is in the server's Adminlist file.

[subtle nebula]

I'm using r2modman

to be able to play with mods and download them easily

[weary island]

That's my favorite, too.

[deep stag]

What is a nice mod, that works on bog witch, that adds clutter items?

[subtle nebula]

@weary islandCan I install the devs command on it?

[weary island]

On your server? Yes.

[weary island]

Check the Finewood Pieces mod and Odin's Archetect one, too. Both are good but I'm not sure they're updated yet so check that.

[subtle nebula]

@weary island
Do you know of a video that explains how to do it?

[weary island]

Not off hand. You'd need to search on Youtube for one.

[deep stag]

Ok, i know of those mods. I used them before. I am building out my new mod server for play, so I am revaluting what I am using. They were nice. I will check them again.

Also, on another quick note, and I know this is the mod-discussion area, but, not regarding hardware and connection, how many mods are too many mods 🙂 I know that a big question that can have 1000 answers, I am just curious in general. As far as hardware/connection, etc, I am not worried about that. 🙂

I am sitting at 104 mods right now.

[weary island]

As long as they all get along together with eadh other, you can go as high as you want. Keeping in mind that when a mod acts up, and you don't know which one did it, you'll have to trouble shoot all of them. So try not to use any you don't really want.

[deep stag]

Troubleshooting alot of mods can be a pain. I have a process of how I add mods and update them. A sound troubleshooting method is very much needed when working with alot of mods.

[subtle nebula]

@weary island
Could you give me a step by step guide, I'll try to do it here

[deep stag]

I also try, and are able to most of the time, not mix mods that do the same things. Like for example the Wizardry mod and the magic plugin. They do very similar things. all be it a little differently. So I am evaluating now, if I keep both on the server or only go with one. I am leaning towards wizardry.

I just want Planbuild to be updated. 😦

Humm, OdinsArchitect was updated 2 months ago, but is labeled as "Bog Witch Update".. hurrm

[clear lily]

yes, because it uses jvl, and that was updated to fix piece mods for bog witch

no issues basically

[deep stag]

Ok. Thank you for letting me know. I will add it and look at it.

Does anyone know of another mod like this one that works with bog witch? https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Vapok/OCDheim/

[daring basin]

If it doesn't work you can ping the author and ask for an update.

[deep stag]

ok. Also, between Comfy Gizmo and PerfectPlacement, which one does a better job or easier to work with?

I have used Gizmo but never perfect placemetn

[daring basin]

Use Gizmo + InfinityHammer + StructureTweaks for the ultimate builder combo.

[deep stag]

Ok, I have gizmo and the hammer.. I will install structure tweaks. Are these restricted by default to non admins?

[noble grail]

Is there a mod to control how my skills are listed? My OCD hates that the skills are discovered in a non static order or grouping

[daring basin]

Yes, only an admin can change the settings, StructureTweaks needs to be on server too.

[mental trellis]

Hey all, bit of a long question here.

Been away from the game for QUITE sometime and really looking to get back into it. I've just seen that the modding side of Valheim looks to be in an incredible place. Does anyone by chance have a suggestion for a modpack for a returning player? I have done a bit of google'ing around and seem to be getting some mixed info as to what would be the best experience.

List of what I'm particularly interested in.
-QOL additions
-Classes seem really awesome
-Building (SUPER BIG ONE FOR ME)
-New monsters
-Armor/weps.

Generally open to any suggestions. 🙂

[thick spear]

are there any up to date skill loss prevention mods? all my current ones seem to be non functional

[daring basin]

Feel free to check out my mod when it comes to building and monsters.

[sudden vessel]

Farmgrid gives error messages in BepInEx but still seams to work, and I've not noticed any side effects. Anyone else using Farmgrid?

[kind pumice]

FarmGrid is in need of an update. There is a prominent modder working to update and improve it as we speak. From what I've seen it should be ready to publish soon.

[thorny arrow]

Yeah I made a new version, gonna post it today sometime

[daring basin]

So there's GAAS but now there's MAAS 😂😂😂

[weary island]

If you're just getting started with mods, I suggest that you go to thunderstore.io web site, join their Valheim community, and look through the mods that come up there.

They will be ordered by their update date and you'll want to stay with mods updated for the BogWitch game version. So, within the last week or so.

There is a modpak search button you can use to view just the modpaks, also sorted by latest update.

You'll want to download and use their r2modman mod manager. It makes using and managing your mods a lot easier and way less time consuming.

Is there a lightweight mod that exists that just.. always shows eitr bar when you have eitr?

I found betterui but its got too much configuration - i just want my eitr bar to always show (the base game one)

[deep stag]

Are there any mods where you can add additional loot/drops to mobs? I see the Azumet creation control, but I dont see where, even in the CreatureConfig file, to add other loot. You can only multiple how much of it drops.

I think I found one.. DropThat..

[faint prairie]

Hey guys, ComfyAddAllFuel and FarmGrid (N3xus) are currently broken I think, anyone have any good alternatives?

[steep narwhal]

Good afternoon. Can someone tell me what the bug is related to when resources for summoning the boss are not spent? For example, there are only 2 Deer trophies, I use them on the altar - Eykture is called - these 2 trophies remain in the inventory and so on in a circle.

[languid hamlet]

I know EnhancedBosses did that after Ashlands update, haven't checked if it's been updated. You probably have an error in your log about offering bowl, or something.

[steep narwhal]

That's the joke. There are no errors in the logs. This problem is only when playing on the server. That is, if you play in your own world, then everything works fine. and there is no mod specified by you, but there is a Creature Level Control.

[languid hamlet]

You're not using ServerDevCommands with God mode, and item usage turned off, are you?

[steep narwhal]

No, players cannot use console commands, etc., because there is an Anti-cheat.

[languid hamlet]

I've had what you are experiencing before, but it was an outdated mod. Have you checked the server log for any errors, not just your local?

[steep narwhal]

[Error  : Unity Log] ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: shader
Stack trace:
UnityEngine.Material..ctor (UnityEngine.Shader shader) (at <ab14d35a27c043688812ae199c64b5aa>:0)
ShieldDomeImageEffect.Awake () (at <77ddbddccea346f6b53b21ef0ef74ab7>:0)

The only error is in the server log.

[languid hamlet]

Yea, I'm not sure about what you're experiencing without an error. I'm doubting it's CLLC, maybe someone here has a better answer. My next thought would be something got corrupted on the server, since it works fine otherwise.

[daring basin]

That can be ignored as it's a vanilla error.

I’m certain this is something you should be able to do since that is a normal part of every other raid in the base game

Help appreciated 🙏

I'm guessing it's modded mobs that aren't giving XP? You would have to assign their level in a file within the MMO folder.

Someone made a fix for planbuild, but it hasn't been accepted by the author yet. You can try it out but it's still kinda buggy, at least with the terrain tools and a few missing translations https://github.com/sirskunkalot/PlanBuild/pull/106

Definitely want to back up your blueprints and maybe your world

[clear lily]

I think a lot of people have been using Infinity Hammer to load their blueprints

[weary island]

Yes, very true. And I use InfinityHammer myself quite successfully for copy pasting bldgs.

However, I also recommend archiving a backup copy of your world before starting any kind of a project with InfinityHammer's copy/paste building function.

And, after pasting in a building, move out of render range of the pasted in structure and then come back in range to assure that the pasted in bldg. looks normal. I've had some unexpected issues with that in the past.

@kind pumice How's the next version of PlantEasily coming along?

[kind pumice]

Working on 2.0. Bulk planting is now done in a coroutine and won't freeze your game no matter how many you place at once. Replant on harvest supports all modded plants automatically and also let's you choose which plant to replant with. LineRenderers are used to draw lines indicating row and column direction. All snapping logic has been redone from scratch, reducing jank and improving performance. The root placement ghost uses custom highlighting for a visual aid during placement. A few other things I'm forgetting about but have written down.

Currently working on a criss cross grid pattern where each odd row has its columns offset. Adding in a few last minute things.

[grim igloo]

Hey I’ve spent 30+ hours over the past few months trying to get mods to work on the new versions of Valheim with no luck 😦

I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled mods and the base game tons of times and yes, I’ve made sure to use ones that have been changed for the most recent game update.

What aren’t working are any mods I’ve tried that affects textures. I just don’t know if they’re out of date or if I’m not doing it right, have watched every video I can online and none of them work for me.

Is there anyone that could help talk me through it? It would really mean a lot to me and make my week. Hope this isn’t against server rules but if someone can help me I’d be happy to Venmo something as a way to say thanks

[weary island]

A couple questions to help diagnose the problem. You're working with the texture mods for your solo game and not for a server? Are you installing the mods manually or with a mod manager program?

Have you been able to check your log files to verify that the mods are loading without any errors? There is a Player.Log file in the same folder as your world saves. And there is a LogOutput.log inside the BepInEx folder. Both logs may have errors that could explain why the mods don't seem to work.

Is this the first time you've used these particular mods? Are you familiar with how they're supposed to work and can you easily see that they aren't doing their job?

Have you looked through the mod's .cfg and/or .yml files to see what options are available there that might change their performance? Do any of the ReadMe files advise that a particular resolution or game graphic setting must be used?

I need to go AFK now. It's late here and way past bed time. Perhaps others in a different time zone can jump in and help, too.

[grim igloo]

1. Yes they are for my solo game, not for a server.

2. Always do it manually, did try vortex (nexusmods manager) once after manually didn’t work but that didn’t help

3. I haven’t checked the files, no, but there is no red error text on the launch info. Previously there were red error messages about certain mods not loading, but this is not always the case. I will check the logs in the game folder and bepinex next time I can.

4. Some of the mods are new ones that I haven’t used before. These are to see if the problem is just with older versions, but these mods don’t seem to be taking effect either.

5. I can’t say honestly that I am 100% sure how I am supposed to put them in the game folder since a lot of them have different structures. Most, though, I am very confident that I am putting them in correctly. For some, I am guessing that the texture names aren’t the same anymore or they can’t be changed in the same way and that’s why they’re not loading, but I could be wrong there.

6. I have not checked in the .cfg files of any of the mods, no. I’ll take a look there.

7. Not all of the mods have a README, the ones that do didn’t seem to suggest anything that wouldn’t work or anything I haven’t already done.

Same here, I am just about to go to sleep. Thanks for the tips, I’ll check into it and let you know if I come across a solution

[weary island]

One last quick thought. I'd strongly recommend using thunderstore.io and their r2modman mod manager to install and manage all of your mods. It makes everything so very much easier and quicker.

Okay I found both the Player.log and LogOutput.log files and am reading them over.

From what I see, the mod is loading properly from the LogOutput file.

However, in the Player.log file it’s saying that some “reference scripts” are “missing”.

From what I can see here too it is saying that it can’t do a retexture for something because it is over the maximum polygon limit. “Consider simplifying your mesh”.

I’ll try one thing for that.

Everything else seems to work smoothly

I can send you a chunk of the log too if that’s helpful

[weary island]

The errors about “Consider simplifying your mesh” are pretty common for servers especially. They probably aren't anything to worry about here.

The part of your post which is concerning is the missing reference scripts. If you haven't already done so, check the mod's web page and any ReadMe file that might explain where those are located.

Maybe do a manual download to your desktop and see if they are in the .zip file from the download. Also, you can go back to the mod's web page and see if you can locate the author for assistance. Perhaps on his/her own discord or with a link to another site for any information about the missing scripts.

[magic sluice]

Hello, in the "Warfare" by Therzie mod, how and what for do I use the black dye?

[weary island]

In case no one here can answer that right away, Therzie has his own discord. You can do a discord server search for it and join there for information and support for the Warfare mod.

[grim igloo]

The mod pages don’t have detailed descriptions but I will check the readme’s.

I will say that some of them have started working since using the thunderstore mod manager so I’ll keep you updated on that, it looks very promising

[magic sluice]

Thank you

[languid hamlet]

I recommend picking up VNEI, it's like an in-game dictionary of all the prefabs and recipes. But it's blueberry and coal for dye on the workbench.

[deft umbra]

@serene swift I've been using ItemDrawers, but you are kind of locked into it since if you put stuff in drawers and then load the world without the mod installed, all your stored stuff will be gone when you load that save later, even with the mod

I think there are other mods that use vanilla storage chests and auto deposit things into chests with the same item

[serene swift]

thanks for your recommendations, ill check those out

[deft umbra]

AzuAutoStore by Azumatt might be a good one, the dev is active anyway

[sleek otter]

@deft umbra i used the backpack mod to make small pouches, basically just small backp[acks you dont wear, to help me compartmentalise my inv without adding slots (ref: for anyione interested: #screenshots message)

[serene swift]

thats good too thanks!

[sleek otter]

i always carry the green gobag, becasue its food and a teleporter - ALWAYS
the others are optional or task specific, it helps to make quick decisions about gear when leaving base

[deft umbra]

I'll have to give that a look

the smoothbrain one?

[sleek otter]

yes, smoothbrain one.
if you use the backpacks mod you probably should also look at bowsbeforehoes, which uses it in a similar but far more sophisticated way to my pouches

[deft umbra]

So is the backpack just a portable container? You just load up a bunch of them and put them in a chest, then grab the one you want for a trip?

[sleek otter]

yes - but unless you have a .yml that customises a bunch of different variants you just tget the one standard smoothbrain backpack, out of the box. Theres a jamesjonestv mod that adds a bunch, but they are all content-explicit ones for very specific tasks... so i guess most people who want somehting esle make thier own

i made a series of different ones, but theyare all basically the same unless i can figure out how to apply the effect: config variable, and even blaxxun/smoothbrain couldnt give me a simple example of that, so i assume its not a case of adding an effect like 'meginjord', and more a case of writing a mod to hook into the effect you apply to the backpavck..... so i basically just use the bigass one i made, all the time, and toss different pouch sets into it

[deft umbra]

I'm still not understanding how they work, what do you configure in the yaml files? the accepted item types for each backpack? or do the backpacks auto-fill with stuff from other chests?

[sleek otter]

i developed this only so far before i had it working and realised the above, so the crafting criteria is still set extremely lax :) and frankly justy make the plains pack and a pouch of each color that you can think of a specific item set for https://gist.github.com/BETLOG/38918e4f96635ee7a749dd1dea9770bf

you need a mod for autofill, but i have found those to be a bit too complex for my needs...ive also had bad experiences with things destroying inventory before, so im paranoid about auto-pack/trash anyhting

[deft umbra]

hmm

lol, smoothbrain's change logs are hilarious "Based on popular demand, I made the mod more casual friendly by allowing players to die without their game crashing."

[sleek otter]

drop the yml into /BepInEx/config/

and if the packs arent in yoiur workbench drop some leather onto the floor and pick it up again... thats a backpacks issue

the whole packs thing is pretty janky to be hjonest, but it works for me nicely. Make sit a lot harder to accidentally dump them when emptying inv/backpack of stuff i collected, and i habitually check the gobags to make sure they are packed as expected.
Currently its basically:
green: general food + combat food, ooze, teleporter and 10 wood
orange: ballista
blue: taming gear from allTameable mod (hat, gloves, and two "wands"), taming food, maybe saddle

[deft umbra]

Ah, so the yaml definitions are for the cosmetic appearance mainly?

and crafting cost, weight reduction, I see

[sleek otter]

well you can change waht compoinents of the backpack model are visible, or their color, and the number of slots inside it
in the pouches case i just hid th emain backpack and only display the front pouch

janky

if you are a mod writer its (smoothbrain's) probably an excellent platform for making far more sophisticated packs, like vapoks adventurebackpacks (they have useful effects like front resist, strenght etc) , but i really want to be able to use bowsbeforehoes, so i'm using smoothbrains (again)

and Sb and vapok conflict due to using at least one of the same asset... the original boxy jotunn backback iirc... and i dont want to find out the hard way if AB conflicts with bowsb4hoes

[deft umbra]

What auto-pack / auto-fill mods did you try that caused you to lose items?

[sleek otter]

it was a recycler, by someone new to mod writing iirc, that made me lose items. I have more faith in the skills of people like azumatt, whos autoThingy i tried recently.... its just that they seem more complex than i need, so i tire of trying them out really fast

also, anyhting that pulls or pushes stuff to inv is a little scary to me, and theres a leanring curve with learning HOW to get them to do their thing in the desired amounts and places

also; re teleporters: TargetPortal cough is the best cough

[deft umbra]

I tried it but I liked XPortal more

I didn't like having to pick on the map every time, I like being able to set things up with XPortal from the dropdown, then the portal just works when you run into it

Which is nice when you are being chased

[sleek otter]

ah, yeah i can see that... also afaik as long as you are 'in' the portal you are invincible anyway

i dont really get chased into my portals though, ever

[deft umbra]

Oh, once you open the map to pick a portal you are invincible? didn't know that

[sleek otter]

maybe, i havent tested it, but with vanilla: yes

[deft umbra]

When I'm exploring and I have a temp portal, it's usually when I'm exploring a new biome and yeah, sometimes i run back home lol

[sleek otter]

im a little excessive #mods-screenshots message

but after playing vanilla at the point where i couldnt even gather the resources to house a 1:1 source:target style portal system... i feel liberate dnow

[deft umbra]

I made a big stakewall enclosure at spawn and threw all my old portals down there, and just keep a few at my base. but now with XPortal, I don't really need the portalhub

[sleek otter]

exactly, being able to go to any other portal is the best.. proper chapa'ai

dial it Carter!

[deft umbra]

man, I miss stargate

[sleek otter]

theres AI upscaled re-encodes around now too. Mostly not bad when i last saw.

[deft umbra]

Does using an 8th chevron get me to another server?

[sleek otter]

theres a mod for that - so yes

[deft umbra]

alright bedtime for me, I'll check out those mods tomorrow

[dreamy orbit]

I wish i was half as talented as these modders. I'd love to sit here and make cool stuff

[daring basin]

Then let's start learning!
What do you wish to make?

[limpid cipher]

Is there a mod that lets you build stuff that isn’t player owned? Like make a town and have monster spawns in it so when people play your world it can be a ruined city without mobs destroying the stuff?

[weary island]

Well, you could build a village or town with vanilla build pieces but then give the buildings infinite health so that mobs could attack them but the couldn't do any damage.

And you can suppress mob spawns in the area, although the village would still be subject to mob raids which would also do no damage to the buildings with their infinite health.

That may not be exactly what you want but it's a start, anyway.

[daring basin]

Yes, InfinityHammer/ServerDevCommands and turn off creator ID.
Now when you build there's no creator to the piece.

[limpid cipher]

Thanks!

[weary island]

So, if you set the building pieces to 'no creator', does that mean that mobs won't attack them?

[daring basin]

Yeah

[wheat hull]

Hey guys. Does Anyone know if the BetterNetworking mod works with the Bog Witch patch?

[deft umbra]

I would guess not, since it han't been updated in a year. Some small outdated mods still work for me, but I'd think something as complex as networking would need an update. Only way to know is to try it and see if you get red text in the bepinex console

[grim igloo]

I couldn’t figure out what the problem with the reference scripts were but the good news is that everything is working even better than originally, since I have a better understanding now and the folders are better organized.

Honestly, getting the mods off thunderstore and using that manager was what really helped, since I think they were more up to date versions and it was putting everything in the right place. From there I was able to drag and drop stuff into the thunderstore mods for some changes and everything has been working great.

Thank you so much! It’s honestly easier than it’s ever been.

[weary island]

I'm glad you got that fixed! 🙂

[lean latch]

anyone know of a mod that would let my 2nd and 3rd players do devcommands debugmode as well?

[daring basin]

ServerDevCommands and make them admin.

[mental scaffold]

Hey guys I'm trying to use Vortex from Nexus Mods to install my mods. I'm having trouble getting it to run mods properly. When I launch the game via Vortex, I get a wall of red text in the log window. Any tips?
I should probably add that I have all game-related files installed on a separate drive from my main system files like OS etc.

I can click "open Bepinex Payload Folder", and the folder it opens is NOT on the same drive as all the other game files. Is that a problem? if so, does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks.

[daring basin]

Delete Vortex, completely reinstall Valheim and then download Thunderstore modmanager instead.

[signal whale]

quick question: if you have client-side mods on your pc, can you still join a dedicated server with them? I'm kind of sick of how everything in the swamp is dark and green and want to replace it with the meadows lighting

[daring basin]

Depends on the mod as some force it to be on server.
Easiest to check the tags on the mod page.

[patent tusk]

Is anyone aware of a mod that lets you join with two characters from the same pc?

[clear lily]

made a copy of the valheim folder and was able to launch both 🙂

[patent tusk]

but were you able to play with two characters on the same world?

[clear lily]

idk, probably not, I didnt really test joining any worlds or anything.

I already have a virtual machine I use for my test server so my solution would be just running a client on that

[daring basin]

Duplicate your Valheim folder and launch both clients.
Launch your server and simply connect to your local server with both clients.
If you don't have one then you can just download the server app via Steam Tools and launch that.

[edgy badge]

https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1570
anyone use this mod or something like it to fix server lag?

[clear lily]

I've only used Network by smoothbrin, though the fix for server lag is usually "less mods"

[edgy badge]

We currently on vanilla. And the lag was bad from like day 2 of the server. Everyone’s got great internet and lives near server, but it just game limitations with bandwidth/send/receive it seems is the issue

[weary island]

BetterNetworking works ok but it really depends on exactly what kind of network problem you have. You just have to test them and see which works for you. IIRC, you have more config options w/BetterNetworking. Check it as I could be wrong about that.

[edgy badge]

Issues we’ve been having is the AI being out of sync between players, and just general stutters. But it’s not for all users. I believe it has to do with who’s the chunk loader where the lag happens. Could be wrong

[weary island]

One of the networking mods might help with that. Put the mod on all players games as well as the server for best results. If you can identify which player and he's far away then a routing app like Cloudflare's Warp utility might help. It's free for personal use.

[slim flower]

does anybody know if maps made for the better continents mod will generate a bog witch?

[subtle nebula]

Hello good evening, does anyone know of any performance mods to improve FPS in Valheim?

[sleek otter]

is linux playfab still being broken by steam runtime? ie: -compat-force-slr off etc? I just made an attempt to update my dedicated and of course now I see theres a jotunn error MissingFieldException: Field not found: System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary2<ItemDrop/ItemData/SharedData, UnityEngine.GameObject> .ObjectDB.m_itemByData Due to: Could not find field in class and i'm getting the classic "failed to connect" with no explanation, like unmodded clients always see.
wtf?

or does this mean that one of my 'cant play without' mods that have no update... so i didnt, are a problem?

[sleek otter]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/?q=graphic&ordering=last-updated&section=mods

[sleek otter]

whoever arrives first is chunkmaster. But my money is on the casue being players setting high graphics, having weak/overloaded laptop CPUs and just thinking they should be able to set everything to ExTrEmE!! Becasue it barely works when they are alone in thier own game and dont have 50 tames/monsters or other players near them.

[modern arch]

anyone know a good mod to boost fps? all of mine have deprecated for some reason lol

[clear lily]

There are a few guides out there to increase FPS, however, mods do not usually increase FPS and usually have the reverse effect on it outside of a few.
There are some mods that may help to improve data sending between players, or mods like OdinsUndercroft or Basements that you can build/store things outside of ground load. OdinsKingdom I made optimized versions of the firepit and other light sources that helps cut down fps drain.

[languid hamlet]

LightTweaks and ParticleControl by coemt are also good options to reduce fps drain.

[rapid dune]

Regarding the Jewelcrafting mod, anyone knows what the "Split Sockets" option does? The description says "If on, the sockets in utility, necklace and ring slots are split, if multiple items are equipped." but I'm not sure what that means.

[clear lily]

It's to balance the mod better if using multiple utility items (ring, neck, + belt or something)
It will only allow you to use 3 gems throughout those items, if you have 6 sockets, only 3 will work, rest will say "no effect" when socketing.

[grand stone]

I have a question about having a mod if you host a server. So i was planning on to have a "PlanBuild" mod, does it work if i have a friend to join the server if he dosent own the mod?

[weary island]

PlanBuild only works if it's installed on your game. When you have PlanBuild on your game and want to join a server, PlanBuild also has to be installed on the server.

[grand stone]

Okay but what if i have PlanBuild, and make a single house then remove the PlanBuild mod will my friend be able to join?

[weary island]

Yes, the PlanBuild house is just like any other once it's built. It wouldn't cause problems.

He would only be unable to join if he still had PlanBuild on his game and it was not on the server.

[grand stone]

Hello, can anyone advice some mods to boos fps on coop modded playthrough?

I was thinking of trying out RelicHeim or JewelHeim modpacks with a friend. Any advice on which one to pick and why? Never done a modded playthrough before so I don't know what to expect. Thanks in advance 😃

[winter hemlock]

Hi. wondering if anyone knows details for upgrade world mod using vegetation_add?
I am not sure how to limit the affected area.

[timid shoal]

Is there any updated mod out there that would let my trusted wolf companion be carrying all my stuff?

[opal mirage]

I was going to attempt a saddle bag kind of equipable for your pet. But not any immediate project ATM.

Currently doing the emperors work, for the imperium!

[weary island]

What is it that you want to limit with that command? The type of vegetation? The biome(s) affected? The size of the area affected?

The mod documentation is pretty clear here: https://github.com/JereKuusela/valheim-upgrade_world/blob/main/README.md And you can experiment on a test world to make sure you've got it right.

[worldly smelt]

dude... Fantasy armory is such useless mod, weapons weaker than vanilla and cost much more to upgrade, what's the point besides nice looks

[daring basin]

You can always edit the stats yourself.

[sleek otter]

@opaque plover
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/shudnal/LongshipUpgrades/
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/RustyMods/Shipwright/
are good, overlap a little so you can decide if you want a checkbox or an upgrade process to add shields etc, shudnals is the only one that offers ballistae afaik, but you can run one or both together and decide for yourself

[worn girder]

is there a mod whith which i dont always have to click on craft and just do craft all?

[sleek otter]

most offer a field where you input a number of items to craft

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

[worn girder]

thanks alot

[sleek otter]

combined with this: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/RandyKnapp/ImprovedBuildHud/ helps to do the math to see how may items you could craft

or just use the first mod only and take a ballpark calculation, enter that number and see if it will work (digits of inadequate resources blink red if it doesnt)

[worn girder]

i have one that is similar to this one

[sleek otter]

which? im interested

[worn girder]

one sec

CraftFromContainers was it i guess

[sleek otter]

after crafting a lot more carrot stew than i intended to a long time ago, and still having a chest full of it today, i balk at the concept of craft all btw :)

[worn girder]

xD

[sleek otter]

noit really the same kind of mod, but i guess yo umean it does the math for you... the one i linked just shows numbers, thats it. Works for any build item too. I like simple mods :)

[worn girder]

Craft from Containers also shows how many of an individual item is in range

[sleek otter]

"craft all" and a mod that pull sffrom containers would be potentially disastrous ...lol

[worn girder]

yes xD

[sleek otter]

i dread to think how much carrot stew id have

[opaque plover]

Hey, thanks

[queen condor]

hey just wanna ask, can't find anything on the subreddit but idk if i'm being silly with my search terms, is there a mod where it allows you to multi-deposit items into a machine e.g. inserting 25wood in one go into a charcoal kiln instead of one at a time

[haughty ore]

when I pull up the F5 console it’s always spamming useless logs, how can I completely stop these messages? i just want my commands to stay visible not get buried

[daring basin]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Smoothbrain/ShutUp/

See if this is what you're looking for: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/blacks7ar/LazyVikings/

[queen condor]

thank you I'll check it out 😄

[winter hemlock]

size. I really only want to add vegetation in a small area. if I use
vegetation_add terrain=50 it seems to affect the whole seed (takes forever).

[weary island]

Use ServerDevcommands mod to set your mini map to show your position. Then you can go to where you want to add the vegetation and add "zone=x,y safeZones=0" (using your position x/y zones in the mini map) to the command instead of "terrain-50".

[winter hemlock]

ok thanks!

[weary island]

Try the command on a test world first. Or at least have a good backup of your world. 🙂

[weary island]

Also, you might want vegetation_reset instead of vegetation_add to just regrow the original vegetation. And, if you want to re-grow the trees, you can use InfinityHammer to find and select a large forest area and then copy/paste it where ever you want.

[wheat saddle]

using ServerCharacters and TargetPortral mod on a dedicated server and the portrals always have to be "discovered" to be able to teleported to. Anyone seens this? As in I can go to portal 1 and 2 (they show directly when the chunck is loaded), quit the game and log back in, the portals are gone until I find them again

[wheat saddle]

guessing it's servercharacters related as the forsaken power is also missing every time

due to the dedi being hosted on the same machine?

[true sandal]

can anyone tell me what skalds girdle is. its an item that can be bought from haldors shop

i have no clue what mod it comes from either i cant find it

[orchid mountain]

Hey, is VOIP still working through mods?
for the life of me i cant seem to be able to make it work.

[sage wolf]

Are you still using ''BetterNetWorking'' on your servers since the bog-witch update?

[steep narwhal]

This mod does not give results even before the release of the Ash Lands. That's why I use Networking and ReturnToSender on my server. In combination, these two mods showed a greater effect than you indicated.

[true sandal]

anybody know about good ole skalds girdle item u can buy from haldor at all

https://next.nexusmods.com/valheim/collections/n6j8xl these are my mods from my collection its all i have on

i cant find ANYTHING on this item

[sage wolf]

Networking is Betternetworking?

[steep narwhal]

Considering that BN has not been updated for a long time? Yes, it's better in conjunction with the second mod I named.

[sage wolf]

I also heard that with the Bog-witch and the Unity engine it's mod is no longer necessary but I'm not 100% sure

[steep narwhal]

You can easily watch streams of different people where they are already playing in co-op on the current update of the game. The out-of-sync and lags have not gone away, because no one has canceled the system "whoever first entered the region is the owner of the region." Also, large buildings (where there are a lot of elements) still greatly lose fps. The new engine does not mean that performance will get better.

There are people here who are more knowledgeable in this matter - if anything, they will correct me.

[sage wolf]

hmm Okai I see

Thank you for your explanations

[manic nest]

Does anyone know what the best app is to download on my pc for a bunch of mods

[tired crescent]

If you mean mod manager. Download R2modman that is pinned on thunderstore

[subtle nebula]

Hello good afternoon, can anyone tell me if there is any mod that adds stone statues of animals and NPCs to the game?

[weary island]

A couple come to mind... Cookie Milk's MagicalMounts mod does that. Also, RefinedStonePieces by blacks7ar does that, too. And I'm sure there's a couple other mods I don't know of. You can find those mods over at thunderstore.io.

[subtle nebula]

@weary island Thank you very much

[daring basin]

I've actually thought about adding stone statues of various animals to my BuildPieces mod.
The statues in MagicalMounts are living statues which are animated, might not be the same.

[thorny arrow]

Is this mod still working? https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Venthari/Creature_Statues/

[tight fossil]

Hi everyone. I am wanting to do a playthrough using epic loot this go around.
My server will ultimately have two instances running on different ports at all times. (my last mostly vanilla that friends are still active in, and the new one I intend to start with epic loot)
If i install epic loot on the server, will it impact the clients that are on my vanilla-ish server that are not running the mod?

[clear lily]

"two instances" do each have their own folder directories or they both loading from the same exe. if using 2 folder directories for each instance it shouldnt have any impact on non-el users.

the mod is mostly client side anyways, the server really just enforces the configs for the client.

[tight fossil]

same directory. Didnt even think to duplicate them. I was thinking the same thing with it being mostly client, shouldnt be an issue. Ill give it a shot on same directory and if anything goes wrong, try splitting them. Thanks for the suggestion

[tired crescent]

No. She’s working on it. Actually posting progress in dev discord.

[worldly smelt]

Find out that Iron Battlehammer from some mod has same moveset as atgeirs (spin2win stagger on heavy attack) did some one know other weapons with same moveset but NOT atgeirs?

[floral summit]

hiya ! Was just wondering, i finally installed epicloot and its a lot of fun, but i notice i severely lack coins, does anyone have tips regarding that ?

[worldly smelt]

you mean gold?

[floral summit]

yeah

fastest way ive seen so far is to raid dungeons

[worldly smelt]

you can farm a bunch by doing quests from Haldor, he get's the quests system with Epic Loot mod

[floral summit]

yeah thats true

i wish i had a flying mount mod installed, would make traveling to these so much easier haha

they always seem to spawn in an undiscovered area haha

[worldly smelt]

i also can advice to use RtDMonsters by Soloredis, id add alot of new intersting monsters, and alot of them drops a bunch of gold, not much but you can farm them

[floral summit]

oh nice

good tip ill check it out

[worldly smelt]

and check other mods from this guy, we have alot of fun with friends playing it now

[winter hemlock]

Greetings.
I am struggling with vegetation commands from the wonderful upgrade world (JereKuusela). In particular I am trying to reset vegetation at my pos like this:

vegetation_reset zone=-88,336 safeZones=0

This does nothing.

I also tried to remove things and reset afterwards, still nothing gets removed / affected.

vegetation_remove zone=-88,336 safeZones=0

What am I missing?

[devout gazelle]

Did you do start command or add start to the command?

[winter hemlock]

yes using start of course, did not affect anything

[devout gazelle]

You can try force instead of safeZones=0. Because not sure if people use safeZones= that much so it could be broken.

[bitter fern]

is there any mod that makes ashlands less stuttery?

[winter hemlock]

hmmm, no change 🤔

[vagrant shoal]

Is there any mod for different color for embla set?
I don't like blue one

[weary island]

Try adding min=1 max=1 to the command.

[winter hemlock]

this changes things.
'... 0 zones: 1776 skipped by being at wrong distance.'
let me experiment (values do not make sense)

[weary island]

I think the min/max values are the command radius. So maybe min=1 max=3 or something like that. Or maybe just max=2. Dunno. Been a long time since I played with that command. 🙂

[winter hemlock]

what I found working (oddly so):
vegetation_reset pos=enterCoords min=0 max=20
max being meters.
So thanks again Jaga!

[devout gazelle]

For example when at zone -5,3 , this vegetation_remove zone=-5,3 start seems to work ok and remove trees from it.

[steady barn]

are there any plugins, mods or settings for a server that can spawn people in split up across the map instead of at the normal spawn?
I'm kinda wanting to do a run at some point where everyone is split up initially but im not sure if this is possible?

[thorny arrow]

This is one option, be warned if your map has tiny meadows your players can get trapped in some bad places. I find turning down the spawn radius can help a bit. But making a good seed with large meadows is key to success https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Vapok/RandomSpawnPointBruh/

[steady barn]

ah! thanks for the heads up on it, is it only needed by the host or does everyone need it?

oh I just read it sorry for asking that haha

[weary island]

Everyone plus the server.

[stiff phoenix]

What mods should I use to reduce desync/lag in multiplayer gameplay?

[weary island]

I've heard of good results with 'BetterNetworking'.

And also with using 'ReturnToSender' and 'Networking' together.

In both cases, they need to go on the server and all players to be effective.

[stiff phoenix]

Do they also work for PC hosted multiplayer?

[weary island]

They are mainly for PC hosted servers. If you can get them installed on a remote rented server, then they should work the same in that environment, too. I'm not at all sure you could get them put on the remote rented server, though. You'd have to put in a support ticket to find out about that.

[stiff phoenix]

Gotcha, so yes. I either host on my PC or I set up a work PC to host it from my home, but without those mods the lag/desync issue was the same, modded and unmodded

[mighty radish]

does anyone know of a mod that makes the damage value alterations for difficulty settings apply after armor instead of before

normal is a bit too easy but the absurd jump in damage taken from higher tier enemies on hard is just too much

[haughty ore]

is there a mod that shows if you're in a player base zone, like the white circle from the workbench, but for all the base items?

[weary island]

If the base owner has a ward running and it's notification is turned on, that would work. You might need the BetterWards mod or the WardIsLove mod to get that. I'm not sure the vanilla mod will notify.

[haughty ore]

not really following? i just wanna walk around my base and check where the player zone doesn’t cover

[weary island]

I guess I don't know what you mean by 'player zone'.

[haughty ore]

no spawn zone https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Player_base

[weary island]

OIC, I don't know of a mod for that.

[haughty ore]

got some gaps in my base, not sure where but mobs keep popping up inside lol

[weary island]

Yeah, well that's a problem that the WardIsLove mod I mentioned would fix.

[daring basin]

ESP from Jere might have that option.

[faint prairie]

Is there a mod that allows you to see lanterns from far away? because i have a big wall with lanterns on it but they disappear if you walk a little bit away

[languid hamlet]

Try bumping up your active light points in settings

[faint prairie]

nah that didnt change anything

[languid hamlet]

Ah, sorry then. If there's not an obvious answer, there is a mod, LightTweaks, that may have a config option that helps.

[faint prairie]

Oh okay Ill give it a try. Thanks!

[haughty ore]

thanks !

[clear lily]

you mean the dvergr lantern? they are set to cull at 10%, normal walls and things cull at 3%, so yes they will vanish before the wall vanishes the further you get away.

[swift spear]

Just starting to look into mods, does anyone know of one that can change your character apperance? I was really wanting to play as a minotaur/tauren if possible but all im finding are wolves/cat people skins.

I don't know how the Xbox works. Maybe they could help in the #xbox-bugs-discussion channel.

[regal phoenix]

Are in Thunderstore all mods. Or do i need to install them manualy from nexus?

[weary island]

Use thunderstore. Nexus doesn't work well for Valheim.

[regal phoenix]

Allright thanks buddy

Have you guys any mod recomends for solo playing

[weary island]

Head over to thunderstore.io and check out their modpaks there. Some of them are for private servers but the other ones are great for solo game.

[weary island]

Try this one if you want something a little different. But it's not 'easy' and you'll need to give it some extra time to load up the first time you run it. Be sure to use it on a new world.
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Soloredis/RtDMMO/

[regal phoenix]

Thanks buddy, you make my day

[weary island]

🙂

[regal phoenix]

I only got one more Question. Hope you can help me.
I playing on windows and a good friend on mac. Is Thear a way that he can mod his
Game?

[weary island]

Well, Xboxes can't load mods. None. Ever. But he can join in on any 'server only' mods you can find.. There aren't many but a few of them are like some QOL (things that aren't really very great). So, yeah. He needs to get off the couch and go buy a PC from Walmart's refurbished section or somewhere. 🙂

[regal phoenix]

To bad, thanks for your time. I will make him to buy a real pc😂

[weary island]

Oh, wait. He has a Mac? I misread your post. Sorry.

He might be able to use mods. I dunno. But ask in the #mac-bugs-discussion channel where they know about Macs.

[regal phoenix]

Perfect, i will try my luck there

[gentle ridge]

is this a good place to ask about how to install a certain mod

adventure backpack i read the read me thing and still made no sense to me sorry im a bit slow

[weary island]

Easiest way to install any mod is to go to thunderstore.io and get their r2modman. It's free and makes mods really quick and easy to install and manage.

[gentle ridge]

i mean i was installing basic mods just fine putting the dll thingy in plugins but this one is different

that and epic loot idk if i need all those other files

[weary island]

You really just need to get the dll thingy in the plugins file and the rest takes care of itself.

[gentle ridge]

oh and i looked and it said it needed something extended and it said in the mod page that it was like outof date or something idk exactly i have to look

[weary island]

Unless your EpicLoot mod comes with custom cfg and/or yml thingys. Those need to go in the config folder.

[gentle ridge]

not sure hold on

[weary island]

If it's just got icon or png thingys, those are just fluff and you can ignore them.

[gentle ridge]

it has abunch of .jsons around it

[weary island]

Oh, put those in the config. I think.

[gentle ridge]

dang i cant send pics

the old video thats 3 yrs old said it had a req called extended somthing but when i looked at it it said it was like outdated or something

[weary island]

Yeah, don't use that one.

[gentle ridge]

well the nexus site doesnt say it needs it so idk

[weary island]

Nexus usually messes up stuff with Valheim, anyway. You should use thunderstore.io and it's r2modman like I said before. I did say that didn't I? Pretty sure I did.

[gentle ridge]

ya i was just told i didnt need one for val from a video but ill download it

i might need help with the back pack mod im testing the loot one

[weary island]

Just do them both with the r2modman, like I said. I do remember saying that.

And don't worry about the pics. I don't have my glasses on right now and don't remember where I left them...

[gentle ridge]

ik ik i just like to try without it cuz the basic installs were pretty easy but ill download r2 then

and ok

[weary island]

Good man! Or girl. Whatever...

[gentle ridge]

def easier ty

[gentle ridge]

well except when theres a long list of red errors

saying something about jotunn which i have installed

failed to patch void somthing

and i cant start a world or change anything about the character so something broke

[weary island]

You've got an old out of date mod in there.

[gentle ridge]

dang i removed jotun and it still did it

any way to tell which one

[weary island]

Jotunn is really a library of scripts and coding shortcuts for modders. You don't need it by itself but some of your other mods won't work without it.

[gentle ridge]

ya i tried to install vnei

[weary island]

Use your r2modman and click on one of the installed mods and select Website and check there if it's been uipdated recently

[gentle ridge]

but tell me why it breaks character customization and wont let me hit play button kinda weird

i see all the red errors player customization .get hair index is red

[weary island]

No, that's pretty common for a broken mod. You really need to find the broken mod and remove/replace it.

[gentle ridge]

gotchya on it ty

[gentle ridge]

what if they all are up to date

pretty sure they are anyways i checked on the website thing

[Error : Unity Log] MissingMethodException: Method not found: void .ObjectDB.UpdateItemHashes()
Stack trace:

(wrapper dynamic-method) FejdStartup.DMDFejdStartup::Start(FejdStartup)

[weary island]

Well, one of them is definitely broken. So you still have to find that one and remove it. You can disable them in groups for testing to make it quicker. I know it's frustrating. Been there... 😖

[gentle ridge]

thats the only red error idk if it says anything

is there no way to find out wat mod is out of date like easier

[weary island]

No, some error msgs just are too generic and don't let you know what mod it is. That's why using r2modman to test in groups instead of one at a time is so much better than manual. Doesn't mean it's easy, though.

[gentle ridge]

ok so ill just make a new profile and start over then ty

[languid hamlet]

Odin Plus discord also has a log check channel you can drop your log in. It's not gospel, but may give you a place to start.

[gentle ridge]

oh ty

[weary island]

Just load them one or two at a time and then test.

[gentle ridge]

which sucks cuz i liked all them but of well

[weary island]

Might be one that's easy to replace. Could be...

[gentle ridge]

first one i tried i found it

it was belts i think its called which makes sense if it breaks the character thing

but it did say an error with jotun so ill try it without belts maybe

[weary island]

https://tenor.com/view/yarnok-belt-remove-belt-gif-15080647

[gentle ridge]

..... -_-

lol

no errors im guessing it was the stupid trash belt mod i wish it would say it in the red errors like how dumb why couldnt they make it literaly say hey its this mod thats the error

sorry rant over ty

[weary island]

🍻

[deep stag]

What is a good mod to reset burial chambers? I know abot the one called Venture_Location_Reset, but it says it does not reset sky locations, which are what burial chambers are. I would like for it to restock the loot

[daring basin]

Question, if you had a variant of the wisp that automatically gathered all drops, would that be useful?

[weary island]

I just manually use UpgradeWorld mod and

locations_reset SunkenCrypt4,Crypt2,Crypt3,Crypt4,MountainCave02,TrollCave02,GoblinCamp1,GoblinCamp2,Mistlands_DvergrTownEntrance1,Mistlands_DvergrTownEntrance2 force start

That's all one command there. You can customize it as you like. However, it will destroy any bldgs made on top of a dungeon.

[deep stag]

Ok, thank you @weary island , Ilike that. And as far as building on a dungeon, there the players problem. they shouldnt build on a dungeon. 😉

Now can this be done live? Does it require a restart?

[weary island]

No restart needed. It's instantaneous. 😄

[weary island]

If you're looking for something to fill up your spare time, fix it so that dragon has a fire ball breath attack you can use when you're riding him. Oh, and make him fly faster, too. 😛

Quick question from an different discussion does Willybach's HD Valheim work for Ashlands?

[daring basin]

Def Ashlands but not sure if Bog Witch.

[deep stag]

Smuag...

[gentle ridge]

so does anyone kknow why im getting like 10 backpacks i set it to greyling and deer to test it at 0.5% which is 50 % and amount to 1 any one know why id like it only drop one

while im at it any one know how to make it have more space kinda like the mod im using rn for more inv space

[clear lily]

Greyling:0.5:1: (but that isn't 50%, Greyling:50:1 would be)

[gentle ridge]

? im a bit confused cuz it literally says 50% after it

[clear lily]

ah maybe it's like that then.

[gentle ridge]

it shouldnt drop like 10 tho

is it carry bonus? nvm not that

[clear lily]

I was comparing it to other creature drops where .5 would be less than 1%

[fathom citrus]

Was looking into mods but the issue I'm having is we are using thunderstore

[gentle ridge]

oh and i see the size thing i can change the size pretty easy i just need iit to not drop like 10

oooooooh

nvm its my loot multiplyer mod woops wish i could make it so certain items dont get that muliplyer

[weary island]

You could maybe adjust that with DropThat mod. But you'd have to figure out how that works.

[gentle ridge]

it does say white list idk tho

ill look at that thx

[clear lily]

dropthat is cool and all, but I always feel like it's needed cause no one asked the author for those configuration settings in their mod.

like most items we can add a "drops from" easy, but people dont ask for it

[weary island]

It's not always easy to ask mod authors for anything. Most players don't know how to go about reaching them.

[clear lily]

true

[gentle ridge]

whos it by asharppen?

[weary island]

And they can't hang in here all day. They'd never get any modding done.

Sometimes it says how to contact them on the mod's web page.

[clear lily]

yes, asp is the author

[gentle ridge]

ok ty

how many mods is to many this game seems like it can take alot on low settings

[weary island]

One guy I know plays with 119 mods on his server. I think he's in therapy now. Or soon will be.

[gentle ridge]

ya that would be me too when i play minecraft it takes me like hrs to make a server cuz im just adding mods

also drop that didnt giv any errors but i dont see it in configs

[weary island]

Maybe you have to run it once to let it create it's config file(s).

[gentle ridge]

its supposed to show up in the bep config right?

[weary island]

Yes.

But you have to look in your profile's BepInEx. Not the regular game one.

[gentle ridge]

oh

gochya ty

[weary island]

Where are you located, Watty? EU or thereabouts?

[gentle ridge]

usa pa

pretty boring here

[weary island]

This time of night I imagine it would be. 😄

[gentle ridge]

i plan on moving and any time it is lol i live in a borin town

and im about to go to sleep just cant stop adding mods lol

[weary island]

Well, boring looks pretty good depending on some of the alternatives.

[gentle ridge]

idk sick of living here been here for 28 yrs and need to move

i would leave the country but id prolly go to japan cuz im a weeb ha

but im too terrified of dying to an earthquake

[weary island]

I hear Italy's got some good deals for USA expatriots.

[gentle ridge]

idk much aboout the world i can hardly get a job cuz of health

[weary island]

Sardinia, I think it was...

[gentle ridge]

trying to learn sql

[weary island]

Another year or two and AI will be sucking up all those jobs.

[gentle ridge]

meh there will always be a need for someone to code

alrighty ty for the help im dead guna pass out

[tardy gate]

does anyone know of an alternative to better archery? ive recently learned that the air jump from epic loot creates an audio bug whenever better archery is installed.

oh, and @clear lily i saw that you reacted to my issue the other day. i switched to a different api and that fixed my problem, and honestly its better than vulkan so dw

[clear lily]

nice

[dense crypt]

Bows before hoes, has many config options as well as in game items

Question about server characters mod, does it need installed on a fresh start, or will it be a problem to add it to a dedicated server once its already started?

[daring basin]

Anyone know if console will be getting mod support also please ping me with ur answer so I get a notification thank you in advance.

[unique pebble]

Do people still use or is valheim plus still being updated or just a collection of addons?

[daring basin]

Nah.

[daring basin]

Nah as in we won't get any or in nah Noone knows

[daring basin]

Xbox won't get any mod support as there's not even an official one for PC.

I see thanks

[thorny arrow]

It does reset them unless you're using dungeon splitter. In that case you should use Jere's resetting mod (upgrade world) since it works server side

[dense crypt]

Question about server characters mod
does it need installed on a fresh start, or will it be a problem to add it to a dedicated server once its already started?

[clear lily]

It's easiest if added to a "fresh start" but if you add it, allow all players to join without restrictions, then turn on the enforcement for items and what not, it should create a save with peoples current stuff.

idk, there is something like that where you can turn off the enforcement to create the saves for people then after they have a save turn it back on

[weary island]

The problem with mods on Xbox isn't so much with whether they're supported or not. It's with the design of the Xbox console and it's limitations as to physically installing the mods. With the current Xbox design, there's simply no way to get a mod onto the game with an Xbox.

[gentle ridge]

any reason why i cant add skyheim to my mod pack it give a red error

[weary island]

Sounds like it hasn't been updated for the BogWitch game version. What's the error say?

[gentle ridge]

idk i dont have it one sec

ya it looks like ppl are saying its not updating OFC NOT cuz the mod is pretty cool

[weary island]

Some mods take a few days longer to update for whatever reason. The mod authors usually have full time jobs elsewhere and families to deal with. So, yeah, just gotta wait.

[gentle ridge]

anyone know of anyother magic based mods?

[weary island]

Do an easy search for 'magic' over at thunderstore.io and check the ones that come up there. Choose one that's had a recent update.

[gentle ridge]

kk ty

[gentle ridge]

so some mods can work if theyre 4months old? like the mod show plant growth

or should i not install it still

[weary island]

In a case like that, you could get the mod loaded into r2modman all by itself and then test the game before loading any other mods. That way you can easily find and correct any problems it creates. And continue to be suspicious of that mod in the future in case of problems cropping up later. Loading in a mod like that along with other mods makes trouble shooting a lot harder.

[gentle ridge]

i mean i think it works cuz its just a text based mod maybe idk tho

but ill do that with other mods

[weary island]

For me, I'd have to REALLY want an old mod before I ever loaded it in.

[gentle ridge]

its for so i can see the farming % but ya i get ya im just lazy and anything thats helps me be lazy i like

and i think i found a decent magic mod btw called wizardry or somthing

[kind pumice]

PlantEverything shows plant growth. The display of which can be customized in the [UI] category of the mod config.

[gentle ridge]

oh well i have both so idk idk if ill even do much farming im solo duo mostly solo and i normally build most fight most and farm less

[tardy gate]

ive been having some wierd issues with plant everything, im not sure if im the only one but maybe reinstalling would help me

[gentle ridge]

i honestly didnt even know this game had farming tbh

[kind pumice]

There are no known issues with PlantEverything nor are there any known conflicts. The only thing that can be affecting it is a broken mod.

[sonic dew]

Which is why you should always play vanilla before modding...

[gentle ridge]

i did still never tried to farm

[tardy gate]

yeah i guess you could technically go through the game with only foraging. but dont you get seeds from foraging carrots?

[sonic dew]

And an item literally named "cultivator" in the second biome

[gentle ridge]

welp i just downloaded cosmikviking it works but it messes up load time like it loads so slow

i had 50 and now i im at 150 mods

guesing theres noithing for load time

[daring basin]

There is, remove mods.

[gentle ridge]

well the issue is idk what mods cosmicvikings added cuz it added like 100 so ill have to redu my pack which isnt to hard if i have to

[daring basin]

It's a mod pack?
You can open the manifest and it will show you all the mods.

[gentle ridge]

ik but im lazy and also dont really want to go throught waht i had so im just redoing it im almost done already

it wouldv been fine it just makes the game load to long

i have a crappy gpu

[sonic dew]

Almost as if using modpacks was a terrible idea with one advantage for every 20 disadvantages...

[gentle ridge]

ya i like making my own i didnt know it was like 100mods in one woops

[gentle ridge]

anyone know the mod that makes my stamina bar disappear

the only one i think it might be is one of the wackys

[worldly garnet]

Are you in god mode by any chance

[gentle ridge]

dont think so i didnt try to any ways i dont think i have admin thing

[worldly garnet]

put /god in chat

[gentle ridge]

nope not that

and also trash slot isnt working when it did b4

what log thing did someone tell me to check was it a server someone said b4?

i fixed the stam bar it was the wacky mod thing

[tardy gate]

i miss passivepowers :( it worked so well

[gentle ridge]

is there a mod that makes it so when you craft an item it has a chance to be a higher rarity or tier kinda like teirz for minecraft i have epic loot but idk

lke say you craft a club and you have a chance to get a green tier 2 or somthing like that

[icy ore]

Hey there coming back to play with some friends soon and getting a server together want to get some QOL mods together but I'm not sure what is current or up to date.

Mainly looking for mods like

• Increased inventory
• build camera
• bigger chests
• crafting from container
• grid planting or easier planting etc

Would appreciate any suggestions!

[nova orbit]

I think Azu has all except for planting, for that I'd use either Advize's mods and or FarmGrid by Venture.
Up to date are those with Bog Witch tag on thunderstore and some others that are not tagged but updated after the Bog Witch.

[gentle ridge]

is there an epic loot discord i couldnt find one was hoping there was

[daring basin]

Get at least one of my mods 😏

[gentle ridge]

im guessing no but i got help on the same thing like while ago so i dont rem how i fixed it i rem i added greling and drawf and deer and boar and neck and it was pretty easy

[daring basin]

There's an Epic Loot Discord.

[gentle ridge]

the only link i found was invalid

[daring basin]

Check the one here, might still work.
https://github.com/Valheim-Modding/Wiki/wiki/Modding-Discords

[gentle ridge]

k ty

is there a way to give my friend my profile so he can join me

ik the code thing but what does he do with the code file thing

[weary island]

You export the code. He imports the code. Typically into a new profile he creates.

[gentle ridge]

where would that be?

[weary island]

It's the Import/Copy button on the Select Profile screen.

[gentle ridge]

oh im blind ty

[gentle ridge]

how do i get the cheat console up and spawn abunch of greylings and kill them all in one go i need to test if this mod is even working

[tired crescent]

Add. -console to the game launch options.

F5 in game. Do these commands in order.

devcommands -> spawn Greyling 50 -> killall

[gentle ridge]

tyty

[rugged sleet]

You guys know if there's any way to put a server sided mod in order to check if the items are duped or make characters server only without needing a mod?
Like without needing to use thunderstore

[daring basin]

There no mod to check if items are duped.
ServerCharacter needs to be on server and client.

[autumn latch]

Has anyone come across an issue where all your stored items go missing using the storage in Odin Castles ?

[ebon nacelle]

What is the best mod to replenish crypts and copper nodes and all that on a dedicated server, does Upgrade World still work is there better ones I'm very new to this

[ebon nacelle]

If someone wants to teach me sometime please let me know 🙂 I know some people who do this but want to just ask in this channel first for some guidance

[languid hamlet]

Upgrade World can do locations or world resources, and paired with CronJobs you can automate a dedicated server to running the commands for you.

If you just want locations then Venture Location Reset can do that for you without a lot of setup.

[ebon nacelle]

basically all the dungeons including morgen holes, fortress ideally as well and crypts tombs etc and also copper nodes and tin and silver

[languid hamlet]

Depends on how you want to set up, but Upgrade World is how you reset any world resources, like copper. Venture is good for locations, minimal setup compared writing automated location resets with Upgrade World.

You'll likely want both, and then learn CronJobs to do a whole world reset on a schedule.

[ebon nacelle]

thanks writing that down, dont mind actually just running upgrade world manually instead of scheduled but you're right maybe automating that is a great idea even if its only monthly, we intend that build server to be up for like 2 years or so

have to look up what exactly venture resets too

ores is my main thing and dungeons I think

[drowsy sundial]

Hello there.
Currently having a half-timed (up to moder no mods, but recently got lots of to make my friend interested again) playthrough with unbalances foods from Valharvest, epic loot and insanely difficult mobs (2* lox one-shotting you in a 117 defense gear with blunt/slash damage reduction while having all sorts of defensive potions).

Basics: Epic loot Wizardy Heightmap Extra slots Skills give carry weight Harpoon fishing Simple meads And the rest is QoL.

I need and advice on a modpack, 30-40 mods in total, not much more or less, to give my friend a particular reason to not feel as if he is constantly falling behind me in stuff, that he can get something to pick and be the cook at it. (I play more than him on our world and it makes him sad, feeling useless for the playthrough).

He is a fan of blood magic, hard fights, but not exactly unfair (you can have op gear, but if a lox can oneshot you in a 13 level silver gear - its strange and unplayable) My friend also a fan of building and cooking. I myself like to adventure, crawl into dungeons and come back home with dozens of chests worth of loot.

Any advice?

[languid hamlet]

Venture can do the locations for you, cfg to change when you want it to happen based on days in-game.

UW/CJ you can set it to IRL time. Like my world reset is set for Sunday 3am, with lowest activity during those hours.

I use both.

[ebon nacelle]

what are locations the dungeons but not the nodes like stone?

[drowsy sundial]

stone is considered vegetation i think

[ebon nacelle]

so UW would do that one yeah?

[languid hamlet]

'zones_reset' will destroy the whole world (minus SafeZones) and reset all resources and locations.

[ebon nacelle]

safe zones are near player base items yeah?

[languid hamlet]

Yes, but not all pieces count, like floors, roof, walls; it's pieces like workbenches, wards, fires. And default is a 3x radius from that piece (e.g. workbench is 20m, protects 60m).

[floral summit]

Hi friends ! do we know if theres a mod for more hairstyles ? im looking for one where you can just pick a moustache lol

[drowsy sundial]

https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1261

[floral summit]

thanks !

[signal quest]

you kind of pointed out the problem yourself. you play more than he does and progress while they are offline. i dont think mods is the solution here. you could maybe get those mods that add skills to building and farming for your friend, but that's a band-aid fix. the way i would handle this situation is to either:

1. wait for them to play or
2. have your own world to play to your heart's content

[drowsy sundial]

I know. I have one for myself on harder dificulty. I just want to make him a modpack so we can play on that (like a vanilla minecraft vs modded)

[stiff phoenix]

While troubleshooting Valheim RAFT issues, are there any other working vehicle mods, be it airships or watercraft or land craft, that work AND can be built upon?

[clear lily]

not really, the problem is moving pieces that aren't normally intended to move is usually a huge hit to performance, so a simple idea like making a moving platform able to be built on becomes a whole network code project just so you dont crash the game.

i mean sure there is airship and ship mods, but building stuff on them isn't typically possible.

[stiff phoenix]

Ohhh I see, alright. Once again, big thank you

Thus ends my dream of making a gunboat and sailing around the world with my bros. I guess the only other thing to do would be to make static bases/outposts and get raids increased.

[clear lily]

I live in an Undercroft 😄
nothing really bothers me while inside my mancave. I have portals to my other undercrofts around the map.
but yeah, riding things around sure does beat walking.

there are lots of creatures and vehicles you can ride, dragons, horses, and even airships

[stiff phoenix]

I know, its just I liked the idea of sailing around, bombarding shore targets and firing guns, mines, and missiles at intruders and other ships.

I think its called Zarkows Defense Turrets or something, but it made it so much fun.

[woven adder]

Can anyone recommend a good modpack for me and my friends?

[nova orbit]

I've heard good words about Jewelheim modpacks. It's about configs that balance those mods. Other than that it's a DIY thing mostly, it's not difficult to make one by yourself.

[autumn latch]

Other then CLLC is there another mod that adjusts creature health/attack

[nova orbit]

Alpus-BiomeDifficultyProgression-1.5.0
I did not test it for Bog Witch, you may try it out and report any issues to the author.

[flint idol]

yo. even with console added, f5 doesnt work 😦

[sleek otter]

%command% -console

[flint idol]

the whole thing i add into steam launch options< with command as well<

[sleek otter]

so then your bepinex script probably isnt passing that argument through.

open <whatever>/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Valheim/start_game_bepinex.sh

[flint idol]

oh i dont have bepinex, is it working still without mods?

[sleek otter]

oh, my bad

given the channel i just asumed

[flint idol]

sorry, seen somwhere, i should ask here

[sleek otter]

but my bep script looks like it would pass that argument just fine, so my suggestion is probably invalid (i dont know, i dont use their script)

and yes -console works without bep...afaik

[flint idol]

shit, it doesnt for me 😄 thats why im here

tried shortcut, fn stuff, still nothing

[sleek otter]

are you sure your steam parameters are correct... the %command% -console part

[flint idol]

nope. console is apparently banned pour moi or something 😄

[sleek otter]

what OS?

[flint idol]

win11

[languid hamlet]

Did you add yourself to the admin list?

If dedicated server that is

[flint idol]

well i start server ingame, but i dont pay or anything. just a save two people

[languid hamlet]

Don't mind me then lol

[sleek otter]

does your keyboard have a toggle switch between function keys and multimedia keys?

[flint idol]

i think so, steelseries logo. tried that one as well

[sleek otter]

so them maybe make sure its in Fkey mode.....also, what does f2 do when you start val?

[flint idol]

server info it seems

[sleek otter]

correct - so your f keys work

[flint idol]

imma try another keyboard real quick

[sleek otter]

maybe the os is overriding the f5 for some wInDoWs reason

ah, the classic hardware failure gambit, very astute

[flint idol]

ok got it. f5 is gonzo. another keyboard worked

[sleek otter]

lol

step 1: check its plugged in

[flint idol]

Hi, we are 3 friends on a dedicated server and we would like to remove the snowstorms because my PC is very old and I have a huge FPS drop when this happens, we want to know how to remove the snowstorms.

If you can't find a way to remove snowstorms, ParticleControl by coemt is a great way at giving control to reducing particle effects (i.e. snow, rain) for slower PCs.

Hi Nibel, ParticleControl is a client mod or needs support from server side? Thank you!

[languid hamlet]

Just client, gives each person control over the particles they want to see.

Any mod that forces the server to auto save?
im planning to have a scheduled restart on my server, so might as well have a auto-save at X time before scheduled restart.

[gaunt geyser]

You can set the save interval with the server startup commands. The server should also save when shutting down unless it's shut down improperly

Where can I see this? Sorry. Im using a dedicated server and scheduled a server restart, apparently Player Count detection is not supported there.

I have a question in mind:

Will the server SAVE and BACKUP before a scheduled server restart?

[gaunt geyser]

If you are using a hosting provider then it's up to how they have it setup. You would need to pass a launch parameter

If you have the dedicated server downloaded through steam there is a PDF in that directory that has all the info

the default is -saveinterval 1800 which is every 30 minutes

CronJob, you have to write it yourself tho.

Is there a mod that gives you map to look at on the table for no map servers that can also be used with friends?

[drowsy sundial]

I don`t think so. Maybe yes. There is a mod for synced map, but i dont recon seeing no-map table \
