[frosty igloo]

yeah I dont understand what I am supposed to do. If anyone has a config file for spawn that that reduces greydwarf spawns I would appreciate that

[clear lily]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/RustyMods/TraderQuest/
New released mod, this one is very cool - adjust haldor items, create quests, works with TravelingHaldor mod. A needed alternative to those not using EL or Marketplace for quests

[fierce valley]

Looking for a way to make it where only admins can build portals?

[frosty igloo]

So no greydwarf spawn reducers?

[hearty sphinx]

I think you were already suggested two good mods for this.

[normal totem]

Hi! I'm thinking of using a teammate revival mod.
I have found two, both recently updated.
What are opinions on these mods?

ReviveAllies
(https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Ratzu/ReviveAllies/)
or
Resurrection
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Smoothbrain/Resurrection/

Thanks!

[clear lily]

well ReviveAllies is deprecated, so you probably dont want to use that.

[normal totem]

Thanks! I read the date wrong so I thought it had been updated a lot more recently than the deprecation notice : |

[frosty igloo]

I am aware, to which I said I have no idea how to "code" a configuration for. So I figured I asked again on the off chance that someone has something tucked away. Thank you for your sugggestions

[static flower]

hey y'all. i'm intending on using gportal + bepinex to make a 15-person modded server, for the first time. but one thing i wanna confirm - how much will my friends joining the server need to install and have locally?

[weary island]

Almost all of the mods.

[static flower]

i see. but they wont need to do much more than install them and let bepinex take care of things, right?

[weary island]

Best to use r2modman for the mods and that way you can give the players a profile code to easily load the mods on their games also using r2modman on their games.

[static flower]

does that work with gportal, do you know?

[weary island]

You can make it work with a little extra work. You'd need to make up the mod list on your game, get BepInEx installed on the server, then copy the mods plugins and config folders up to the server manually and restart it. The r2modman is mainly for player games, including yours, and a local dedicated server but yours isn't local.

[static flower]

i think i should be able to handle that, esp if it means the work for everyone else is minimised

thanks a lot! would you be willing for me to pm you if i run into any difficulties along the way?

[weary island]

I think you've got the right idea of it. I'd rather discuss any problems or questions here so others can benefit from our experiences, too. 😄

[static flower]

sounds good

[weary island]

When you get started with selecting mods and making your profile in r2modman, make a separate profile for the server. That makes it much easier to manage the server mods for any updates or changes there or whatever.

[visual bramble]

Are there dedicated servers available for hosting game sessions?

[daring basin]

You can either host on your own computer or rent one from the countless game hosting services that exist.

[signal quest]

if any of you fine people would be able to help me figure out this issue it would be much appreciated!

[gaunt geyser]

You are probably more likely to get help with that on the epicloot discord

[signal quest]

you are probably right - posting there too

[maiden parcel]

What’s that mod called where it removes the limit of how far down you can dig/mine?

[little canyon]

Could you tell it's a lox by first sigh? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1332050554012176497/1338124419377135736/image-5_1.png?ex=67a9f0fa&is=67a89f7a&hm=a8fe201679509ba1f2d08d00e4a8300152f2c35da9a12ee0543fd7083ac01db6&

[weary island]

Ahhh... He's smiling for his picture. How cute!

[normal totem]

How exactly does the Resurrection mod work? Thanks

[void stag]

Hello, I want to add a mod
but I have no idea
Which ones do you recommend that are as vanilla as possible?

[weary island]

Do a search over at thunderstore.io for "QOL", or "gear", or "building" and look through the mods that come up. Choose a couple that have been updated recently, within the last 6 months or so, by their authors.

[thorny arrow]

This is my list of recommendations https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/VentureValheim/Venture_Valheim_Modpack/

[void stag]

Thank you, I don't really have an idea in mind what to add but with this I can start

[weary island]

What worked for me is to spend some time in the game and then fix some of the things that annoyed me. 😛

[thorny arrow]

Totally lol, that's how this modpack was born XD

I'm missing a mod that changes the item stand interaction to another key to prevent me knocking things off the wall when closing doors 😅

[spice cobalt]

does candles burn infinite in the torcheseternal mod?

[sonic dew]

Considering the mod was last updated ONE YEAR ago and bog witch was released on october...

Actually, i will let you figure it out based on that info

[hearty sphinx]

Honestly, it does depend entirely on how both the game and the mod are coded. It's possible it could still work.

[sudden reef]

Considering both torches and candles use the same script and the TorchesEternal patch is literally one line of code, the probability is pretty high it works for candles

[tight junco]

No need to be so damn mean dude

[sonic dew]

That's... mean?

[hearty sphinx]

Yeah, a little bit.

[tight junco]

you sound like a know it all dude

no one likes those

[sonic dew]

For saying that a mod is outdated and telling someone that the info should be clear based on on that

This is why I don't bother. Not worth it

[tight junco]

🤓

just jokes

[hearty sphinx]

There are far less dickish ways you could have phrased it. Especially when it was probably wrong.

[tight junco]

tell em derek

[valid ocean]

Is there a simple way to reduce the delay before stamina begins to regen?

[signal quest]

fuling camps in my relicheim playthrough are more often empty than filled with fulings. any ideas as to what mod could be doing this?

[weary island]

Are they too near tar pits? The fulings don't always win fights with the tar things.

And Relicheim might introduce agressive mobs into the plains biome that don't get along with the fulings, too.

You can repopulate the fuling camps with a command from the ExpandWorld mod, if you want.

[signal quest]

most werent close to tar pits

there were no drops nearby if there was some. only new mob is a panther and they dont seem to fight

i think ill check this mod out! thanks

[weary island]

It's the UpgradeWorld mod that I was thinking of. Not the ExpandWorld mod. Sorry.

[weary island]

Pretty sure this is the command you'd want to use:

locations_reset GoblinCamp1,GoblinCamp2 force start

I think you have to run it once without the start option and then a 2nd time with the start option. You may have to give it a couple minutes to run without any progression info msgs. so just be patient with it.

Make sure you've got a good backup copy of the world first. 😄

[signal quest]

amazing, thanks for the info! i'll be trying this later today when i get the chance. appreciate you

[drifting plume]

hey guys I just installed WackyEpicMMOSystem, all works well but how do I change mod interface, like retur to vanilla hp and stamina bar

[finite quest]

Hi, I'm getting this red text over and over in my BepInEx console:

[Info : Unity Log] 02/11/2025 22:03:31: Destroyed invalid predab ZDO:0:0

[Error : Unity Log] NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Stack trace:
ZNetScene.RemoveObjects (System.Collections.Generic.List1[T] currentNearObjects, System.Collections.Generic.List1[T] currentDistantObjects) (at <889b2bc1e1224b249a4784da9ef107e2>:0)

ZNetScene.Update () (at <889b2bc1e1224b249a4784da9ef107e2>:0)

Any idea how I can easily tell what mod is causing the issue? I have 82 mods installed and the error only comes up after a while playing but leads to my fps getting lower and lower till I relog

[weary island]

You could try this mod and see if it flags one or another of the mods as being older than the current game version and broken. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/?q=modage&ordering=last-updated&section=mods

[finite quest]

Thanks, looks like I have a fair few that are outdated. If the error is talking about near and distant objects, could those objects be items? Maybe its a mod affecting items?

[weary island]

Could be. I'd suspect the oldest ones first and disable those as a test. And continue along those lines until the problem mods are identified.

[finite quest]

I'll try it out, thanks. Having to relog every 30 mins due to lower and lower fps is getting a little annoying

[signal quest]

if you have bepinexpack config thing where you can press F1 to manage mods, open that and go to wackyepicmmo and change UI elements to "none" or "0"

go here and look under the UI tab https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/WackyMole/WackyEpicMMOSystem/

[spring verge]

hello, anyone have a clue on why my mortar and pestle on blacks7ar's herbalist mod doesn't have any of the mod's potions?

I have reached the swamps now and it's as empty as ever

[weary island]

Check your logs to assure that the mod is loading without error. And then check the mod's config file to see that options you want enabled are actually enabled.

[wise plover]

I use Torches Eternal and can confirm candles burn infinitely.

[spring verge]

I have the logs all whites, no reds whatsoever, mod configs all enabled, only thing I can think of is it conflicts with potionplus somehow

[weary island]

Sounds like you're probably right about that. So maybe do a test with potionplus disabled to be sure?

Also, you can join the PotionPlus support over at odinplus discord server and see if they have an easy work around to get the two mods to work together.

[spring verge]

nvm sir, I'm stupid, I simply overlooked all of it and forgot to craft a container

thanks for the inputs anyways!

[weary island]

Glad you got it fixed. I thought I was the only one that did stuff like that. Thanks! 😁

[spring verge]

damn these potions are crazy, also invis potion? goddamn I bet it will be crazy on boss fights for some 1v1 action

[icy trellis]

Minecraft Valheim needs a water bucket mod

[daring basin]

A water bucket mod?
What would that do?

[icy trellis]

Pick up water and drop water in a new place. I'm surprised you don't know how a bucket works 😄

[daring basin]

For what purpose?

[icy trellis]

Can't tell if you're messing with me or you really don't see the use for it hah. Like making pools, fish ponds, decorations and so on and so on

Serpent pool in the mountain!

[daring basin]

Sadly that's not possible in Valheim or any games that uses heightmap terrain, not in the pick up and drop concept like MineCraft.
You can create swimmable pools, ponds, rivers and streams in Unity and then turn them into build pieces which I've done in my mods.

The best you can do without learning how to create your own mods is using Jere's tools to make areas with swimmable "water".

[sonic dew]

Won't happen, because it cannot happen

[cedar agate]

I'm using the Epic Loot mod and this is what it says about the item specs that comes with the mod:

[mod_epicloot_magic]...
[mod_epicloot_me_modifyblockstaminause_display]...

How can I fix this?

[thorny arrow]

Make sure to update the translation file, or that it has been installed correctly

[regal phoenix]

hey guys do you recommend a Valheim modpack for playing COOP?

[weary island]

You should probably play the game together for a while and then decide what you want to add or what you want to 'fix'. Then, you'll be able to choose useful mods for whatever your personal situation turns out to be.

[regal phoenix]

we have 100h together. We want a new experience like role play mod

[weary island]

Ok, then go over to thunderstore.io and do a search for modpaks. Review the descriptions of the ones that come up first as those are the ones most recently uppdated and likely to not have problems like the older ones might.

Choose one of the mod paks to try and see how it goes. Don't use the ones that say they are for a particular server.

And, if you aren't already doing so, download and use the r2modman manager there. It'll make it so much easier to keep your mods updated and coordinated among all the players.

[versed laurel]

Hey everyone, I had a quick question, is it possible to use mods in the normal way, through nexus, if I rent a server for my friends and i?

[weary island]

Nexus doesn't work well for Valheim. The 'normal' way to use mods for Valheim is to use thunderstore.io instead.

Installing and using mods on a rented server depends on how the particular server host supports mods. Some don't allow them at all. Others make it easy in their own way.

[versed laurel]

Okay so it's based entirely on the provider, thanks for thr information. I appreciate it.

[cedar agate]

I changed the translations file but then I did a clean install. Still the same problem.

[thorny arrow]

It will remain broken for things already generated, try it on a new item

[bitter marsh]

if you want to play multiplayer with your own world file and a friend, both people need the same mods installed for them to work? what if one has it and another doesn't?

[weary island]

That depends on the mod. For example, if the mod gives the player a clock display, it doesn't matter it all players have that same mod or not.

But, if the mod creates new building pieces for a player who makes a building out of them and another player takes control of that game chunk, the building would disappear or collapse.

And if the mod creates new mobs to fight, the player without the mod won't see the mobs but they could still attack him.

[brazen crypt]

does anyone have any good mod recommendations that dont completely change how the game is played?

[thorny arrow]

This list might help give you some ideas: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/VentureValheim/Venture_Valheim_Modpack/

[brazen crypt]

oo these are exactly what i need, thank you!

[weary island]

It would depend on the server. Either it won't let you connect or it will and you'll create dangerously unstable buildings there. One or the other.

[harsh granite]

does anyone know the name of the mod that removes the support restrictions? someone told me once about a mod that lets you build as high as you want but I can't for the life of me remember the name. 💜 thank you in advance!

[weary island]

I use InfinityHammer for that, although I believe there are other mods that do it as well. You could search over at thunderstore.io and see what comes up. Choose one that's currently updated by it's author.

[harsh granite]

will that work on a server? I'm currently playing with friends on a dedicated server. I did see that one but was worried that it gave too much power since it sounded like it did more than remove the height limits XP

[weary island]

On a server, you'd need to have Admin status to use it.

[harsh granite]

I also saw one called nobuildrestrictions but I think the mod creator for that one typically doesn't update on thunderstore. I use some of his other mods

[harsh granite]

ok thank you!

[weary island]

And, yes. It is very powerful.

[harsh granite]

yeah def seems like it

[weary island]

You'd need to be cautious and maybe spend some time with it on a solo test world. But, if you're going to be a builder, it's the mod you want.

[harsh granite]

I def feel like some people on the server would take advantage of it though XP

[fresh nebula]

would anyone here be able to help in #mods-issues

[weary island]

Then, be careful who gets the Admin status on the server.

[weary island]

I'll go have a look.

[harsh granite]

thank you again for your help 💜

[weary island]

You're going to want to use one of the in-game mod config managers with it. So that you can swich back and forth on the go with some of it's config options.

I use this mod for that. Open it up with F1. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/Official_BepInEx_ConfigurationManager/

[harsh granite]

that one is a godsend been using it since the start of modding :3

[hexed galleon]

How do you tame Foxes? We got one in it's pen and with food. It just keeps wandering around. We're using Monstrum.

[fossil trench]

Hey, was using https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Dankheim/RaidProtectionMod/ and found a bug where it prevents damage from battering rams to fortress structure. Other than that issue, it has always worked as intended. That being said, does anyone know of any other mods that offer something similar?

[signal quest]

i think boar meat works

[fossil trench]

I since added https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Gratak/StructureDamageTweaks/ but I am not seeing a way to disable enemy damage to player structures? I could be blind though. I see this line, "setconfig StructureDamageTweaks GlobalKeysMultipliers 0.2,0.2,0.3,0.5" and tried changing the first value to 0.0, but it defaults back to 0.1 as the lowest value. Not sure if thats right or not.

[little canyon]

Does status or "readme" file update on mods marked as depracated? I made a gaffe on my first upload

[weary island]

I don't know what you mean by 'status or "readme" file update'. But generally nothing updates on mods marked as 'deprecated'. If you have downloaded and installed a deprecated mod, you should remove it. Problem solved?

[hearty sphinx]

I think they've uploaded the mod themselves, unless I've misread that.

[weary island]

OIC, I was thinking of 'upload' as in to the server or etc. So, 'remove it' still sounds like a good solution, no?

[little canyon]

No i mean i did upload something to thunderstore and on the mod page it links to pages the i did not intend to be there, also listing someone else as author and advertising private server becuse i didn't pay enough attention on upload, sille me, i updated it and marked the mod as deprecated right away but it's not updating on the page, mod description etc

[weary island]

Well, there are modding author's discord servers where you might be able to get better and quicker advice on how to proceed with that. Azumatt has one, for instance as do others. You can generally find them on the author's mods pages.

[clear lily]

to "update" a mod listed it requires you increase the version number in the Manifest

if you created a dll you should also build to that version and add that

[little canyon]

Well theres more to it. Silly me, with help, I uploaded my first mod, but being overwhelmed with this whole endevour i did not double check provided readme. and manifest. files while being instructed on how to upload the mod. I saw something that looked like a code, got spooked and closed the tab. Now the page of mod and Dependency string contains advertisments and references I did not intend it to contain. I changed it and uploaded right away and marked the mod as depracated to limit visibility, but the page and Dependency string doesnt update. I do not want to advocate for, or condone use of drugs, politics, religion or make any manifest for that matter, especially on my first upload. I just want to make a little addition to Valheim

[clear lily]

ok, then just leave it marked as and it will go away in time, eventually delete

changing a name in the manifest will upload a new mod listing for your stuff

[little canyon]

Thanks, thats what im planning to do, already contacted Thunderstore support to take down the innitial release

[little canyon]

Issue resolved, mod is up

[weary island]

Is it this one? Those are some really nice looking banners. I'm glad you added SearsCatalog with it, too. Good stuff! https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Ephemeral/DecorativePaintingsBanners/

[little canyon]

Thanks, was on a fence on which ones to scrap, its far from vanilla friendly but i wanted it to fit the theme.

[weary island]

Vanilla Valheim is like vanilla ice cream in that regard.

It's good plain but even better with some stuff on top. Like chocolate syrup, a cherry or two on top, and maybe even a banana!

For the ice cream, that is. 😄

[little canyon]

Huh, an error

[weary island]

Yeah, I know. I forgot the sprinkles. Sorry.

[little canyon]

I preffer pineapple, play Valheim vanilla most of a time, moded the crap out of Ark and Conan Exiles

[weary island]

Well, there's at least two sides to everything in the universe. Just try to keep the side with the peanut butter and jelly on it facing up any you'll be fine in the long run. And, if you can't always do that, just clean it up and move on. Nobody'll notice. Usually.

[worldly garnet]

Are you hungry, Jaga? You should go get a snack. 😛

[mellow harness]

has anyone played Valheim VR?
I'd like to ask what mods you had problems with when playing Valheim VR

[cloud sapphire]

@neon stratus https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/JereKuusela/Server_devcommands/

[neon stratus]

you're a legend

[zenith vine]

Hey just wanna ask. I'm interested to play mod but have 0 experience of modding gameplay. did you guys using thunderstore mod manager for modding gameplay?

[clear lily]

yeah, most of us use r2modman or thunderstore mod manager, they are pretty much the same thing. Run the app, select Valheim as your game and then search for mods you want to use. Keep in mind that you should use updated mods, as mods that are 2-3 years old may not work.

[flint ocean]

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

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

[weary island]

InfinityHammer gives your hoe that ability. There are also other mods that will do that. You could find them with a search for "terrain" over at thunderstore.io. Choose one that's recently updated by it's author.

[flint ocean]

I tried but I can't find what I need

I installed infinity hammer but I can't figure out how to activate it

I figured out how to make the rune and the hammer with planbuild but I can't figure out how to activate infinity hammer

[weary island]

InfinityHammer has dependencies. That means you need to install those, too. When you do, your hoe menu has a lot of the options you want for terrain stuff.

[flint ocean]

so it's not on the hammer but on the hoe the mod? I thought it was like planbuild? thanks

do you also know advanced terrain modifiers?

[weary island]

No, I've never used that one. But it is up to date for this game version so it should work.

[flint ocean]

but I didn't understand well but the mods once installed in the manager need to be configured? or are they already ready to use? if so which file and how do I open them to configure them? thanks

[weary island]

The mods are generally ready to use with their default configurations automatically loaded.

You can customize them if you wish by editing their configuration files. There's a button for that in the mod manager.

[flint ocean]

ok thank you very much have a good evening

[finite shadow]

Am I able to add mods to an already created world? Or does that require a new world? Me and my friend have been playing together and we were wanting a few QoL mods

[daring basin]

Very few mods breaks a world when adding mid play so go ahead.

[finite shadow]

okay cool - and how would it work for both me and my friend to have the same mods? Would we both have to install them?

we are just using the regular multiplayer not a dedicated hosted server

[daring basin]

Visual mods like clocks or UI changes can be installed as pleased but all mods that adds content should be installed for everyone.

Most mods specify requirements in the readme.

[finite shadow]

Excellent thank you! Do you by chance have any good recommendations for QoL mods?

[weary island]

This could work for you, if you follow the instructions carefully. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/VentureValheim/Venture_Valheim_Modpack/

[opal heath]

Are there any ambient sound mods? I turned the music off to listen to my own, and it turns out the menu ambience is really nice.

[spring verge]

is there a way to turn off wackys epicmmo ui?

[thorny arrow]

Yeah there should be an additional configuration file to the main where all the UI settings are: EpicMMOSystemUI.cfg. I usually turn the vanilla health/stamina bars back on myself. OldXPBar = true

[spring verge]

so that's what that option do! thanks alot!

[autumn harbor]

Hello anybody know any mods to change game brightness, to achieve a darker or even pitch black nighttime?

[weary island]

I like this mod for that. It has good options that let me adjust day/night brightness the way I want. There are other mods you may find equally useful. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/shudnal/GammaOfNightLights/

[autumn harbor]

Nice.. I'll try it out thanks. I should just be able to join my non modded worlds right?

[weary island]

I haven't double checked that but I believe it would work ok for that. Of course, it depends on how the server is configured for 'AntiCheat' or not.

[indigo hill]

hi, is there such thing as a mod that allows for further distances of craft improvements? for example, being able to make a large workshop/forge area and placing the equipment farther away for asthetic reasons? I am currently looking around but nothing directly to fix this is coming up. thanks!

[weary island]

I don't know of any mods that do that, although others in here might. Personally, I just bury some of the more annoying crafting 'accssesory' pieces in the ground. Or under the floor. Occasionally, I'll put one or another on a shelf. Works for me. 🙂

[indigo hill]

that's a neat workaround

i think a QOL mod might do it

ill see if others come thru, thank you

[autumn harbor]

ermagherd how do I even use this gamma mod XD

Oh u need a configuration manager interesting

[weary island]

Yeah, the in-game configuration manager makes it much easier to get the settings how you want them.

[autumn harbor]

omg this is so cool

Game feels so much more vikingy and immersive when u cannot see a single thing at night

[livid crescent]

how do you activate the mods, sorry if this sounds stupid

[sonic dew]

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

Install that

[livid crescent]

THANKS!

[desert ginkgo]

Any one has QOL mods list that works on Vanilla server? Something that doesn't make game too easy but adds things that make game feel complete

[regal stone]

Anyone on Xbox? Know how to get mods?

[weary island]

Xboxes aren't designed for external mod usage. Even if you could find a way to change the internal hardware to get external mods into an Xbox, it would likely lead to MS PlayFab Account issues.

[weary island]

That's a 'personal preference' kind of question. It's whatever you feel like yourself that would make the game feel complete.

You probably could come up with a few QOL mods you like with a search or two over at thunderstore.io and go through the ones that come up there. Just choose ones that are recently updated by their authors. Like within 4-5 months or are tagged for the game's BogWitch version.

[regal stone]

😮‍💨😮‍💨

[daring basin]

Tha game runs at like below 30 fps on xbox, imagine adding mods on top of that.

[coral plover]

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

[weary island]

Are you using the latest version from thunderstore.io? Check your log files to see if there are any errors there that would explain it.

[coral plover]

hmmm, I see no errors in the bepinex window

[weary island]

Also, check for any errors in your log files. One in the BepInEx folder and one alongside your worlds_local folder.

[desert ginkgo]

yea even some mods says Client - side they might not work because some of them required on server side

[clear lily]

"client only" usually implies that it doesnt sync configs with a server or not required on the server, they should be tagging both client/server cause they use enforcement.

[oak halo]

Your only option (until official mod support is added to the game) is a dedicated server with server-side-only mods. They are severely limited in what they can do however.

[regal stone]

How do you get dedicated server?

Gportal?

[hearty sphinx]

They are indeed one of dozens of server providers.

[weary island]

I don't think a dedicated server is what you want. It's not going to give you the mods you're looking for.

[regal stone]

Welp lol I guess I'll suffer 🙃 😅

[weary island]

You might be surprised at how little a decent rebuilt basic desktop PC good enough to play Valheim can cost. I've purchased several over the years and have never had a problem with them.

[regal stone]

Im terrible at PC gaming hence why i switched to console

[weary island]

Yeah, I know. We all like to stay in our familiar, cozy, comfortable, friendly places. You're not alone in that for sure.

But getting into PC gaming is just a matter of hiking up your britches, going outside your boundaries and spending some hours or even days getting used to a new familiar, friendly place to add to your environment.

[worldly garnet]

Dude, "hiking up your britches"? Just how old are you, anyway? 😛

[weary island]

Well, I can still see my 20's in the rear view mirror. So not that old, really. 🤣

Try this. If you still want the original trees it wouldn't be required to pay anything, can just mod them. All the textures are exactly like Vanilla.
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Soloredis/RtDBiomes/

[digital crow]

can it work on an existing save?

[edgy furnace]

Yes if you use upgrade world mod. Simple enter zones_reset start and thats it.

[digital crow]

heard that

is there any chance you might have pics of how the swamp looks? i see its your work :3

[edgy furnace]

ehh not the swamp but my mmo page has screen shots. this has 17 biomes, I doubled the games size in content. This does require a new world/character though for this experience. I've never really taken screen shots but I have some random youtube videos. I remade the Lich King from WoW with similar attack combos. Got addicted to unity lol.

[digital crow]

heard! so it just does biome overhauls if updated onto an existing vanilla generation?

and adds the extra content into the new biomes if generated modded

[edgy furnace]

rtdbiomes is just a biome overhaul, mmo is a game overhaul. new armor, weapons, monsters, loot, ect in the new biomes so not just lack luster content.

[digital crow]

ohhh yep, two different mods :3 i cant read

[edgy furnace]

I cant either 🤣

[digital crow]

thats sick tho, thank you, ill check out the mod, much appreciated

[edgy furnace]

np, hope you enjoy! 🤘

[oak halo]

Im hosting mine myself, it's very easy. Although it's as Jaga said, the mods you can use this way are very limited, it's probably not what you are looking for.

Im only looking for character inventory extra slots

Unfortunately, that's not possible.

Hallo, I am mostly new to modding and was thinking of starting a new modded playthrough and was wondering what the general mods to try and get are. Obviously there's the most popular sorting options on thunderstore but I was curious what other mods most people could suggest. I think the game at a base is pretty balanced but what always made me sad is the lack of consistent build variety, lack of light armor in every tier, sometimes two handed weapons being phased out for one tier, no consistent dual wielding etc.

Was just interested to ask if anyone has an suggested mods to play with or start out with in modding

[acoustic crow]

Hi!
I got a mod that feeds my kiln and furnaces, but I'm looking for a mod that picks up processed bars and coal. Anyone got a good one?

[hollow anvil]

[manic monolith]

Hi Guys! I am in the process of setting up a dedicated server for me and my friends. We would like to make a slow progression server, basically remove boss stones, add eikthyr stone after 48 hours, and add back each boss stone 7 days after that consecutively. I was trying to get this to work with BepInEX rcon, but that does not seem to work the way i want. Currently i am thinking of setting up a dedicated valheim client machine with an admin user on it that will do the above via admin commands. If anyone has a better idea, or a plugin i might have overlooked i'm all ears.

TL;DR: Basically my question is:

• Is there a plugin that does slow progression like i described above?
• Is using a dedicated valheim game client with admin to execute commands the best way to achieve this?
• Is there any other way i could achieve this?

Thanks in advance 🙂

(#dedicated-server message original #dedicated-server question).

Edit: I think i just found out that you cannot even run most admin commands on a dedicated server, so this whole thing is probably moot. The only option i can think of right now is (without actually coding a plugin that does this):

1. create single player world, disable boss stones
2. Copy single player world to dedicated server
3. When new boss should be enabled, copy back the dedicated server world to my single player world
4. etc.

[fresh nebula]

anyone know a mod that prevents builds from taking damage from weather/enemies

[languid hamlet]

Look into World Advancement Progression on Thunderstore to lock bosses.

But, if you ever did want automatic admin commands, like a world resource reset on a schedule, look into Cron Job as well.

[manic monolith]

Thanks, will look into this 🙂

The simplest way would be just change the recipe to take something unobtainable, like a cheat sword, but that doesn't stop someone from bringing one into your world from another.

A second option would be to disable the recipe with WackyDatabase, but the mod is a bit of a learning curve.

[finite quest]

If anyone is able to contact the creator of the EpicLoot mod can you please let them know the maths calculation on the "Coin Hoarder" perk is bugged. It's supposed to increase damage by X% per 999 coins held, diminishing greatly after 2k coins. But instead I'm gaining like 40% damage from holding only 30 coins. It'd diminishing yeah but crazy high increase off the bat. Maybe someone else can try on their end?

[edgy furnace]

Have you tried JewelCrafting with Midnight mods epic Jewels? You can set up JC as an epic loot system, where you get cool gemchests as drops. There is even a greed perk with coins with epic jewels from midnight.

[daring basin]

@gaunt geyser Aren't you one of the EL maintainers now?

[gaunt geyser]

I don't have direct access so I'd say I'm a contributor, not a maintainer- but I can take a look at the math of that effect

[gaunt geyser]

In the future there is also a discord for Epic Loot that you can generally get a decently quick response about such things

[gaunt geyser]

I'd have to see your config for that, it looks like to get a bonus damage value of 40% you would need an astronomical amount of either coins (1.e+459) or a similarly high effect value

[proven robin]

is there a mod that allows me to dig without removing all the stone above it? im trying to make a base in a mountain, but i dont want to make a massive 1/4th of a mile ceiling

or maybe a way to place stone blocks back without making a huge pillar below them, so i can cover the roof with what appears to be mountain

[slender kestrel]

From how I understand your question, then no. The way the game engine handles depth etc means it can't do 3d tunnels, it only sets a Z position to the ground, and that's where the ground is.

The only real exception is big rock formations, which you can dig under, and use as roofs. But that will restrict you heavily to where you find big rock formations and to whatever terrain you're in.

In theory, I guess you could use a mod that lets you spawn objects, and just spawn a bunch of flying rock formations in the air, to use as roof.

[autumn harbor]

Anyone know that mod that lets you build things at any angle

[wise plover]

GIzmo is the one.

its called hugos armory and it has 13 longswords, incuding dragonslayer

[autumn harbor]

If you search it up you'll see why I want it in the game, its basically as large and thick as the player

its supposed to be like 300 lbs canonically or something

[cedar agate]

We playing the game with 40+ mods. Because of this, game opens very late. Is there any way to fix this?

[hearty sphinx]

Have fewer mods?

[daring basin]

No, you simply have to remove the mods that uses very large assetbundles as those are the cause to longer startup time.

[cedar agate]

That's true but we didn't install mods we don't use

[cedar agate]

Okay, thank you

[daring basin]

The new update for Valheim (PTB) increases startup and loading into a world considerably.
This will make it less painful to use larger mods further on.

If you can look here which one is the most accurate I can make it for you pretty quick.

Hello, does anyone know a mod with which to recycle materials and what do you get? for example re-cycle an iron bib and give me the iron and that

Structures don't sync their movements to other nearby players because the game expects them to be static.

The solution is to basically regenerate the object by creating a duplicate at the new position and removing the original.

In Enshrouded, you upgrade your flame, increasing your build radius. every level. I was wondering if it would be possible to make a tiered ward system, that expanded the warded area, starting small ish then getting larger per upgrade.

@steep narwhal @wise plover I tend to give it a try. it will take some time and it is not going to be 100% the same but I have some ideas. If you like join my discord to follow the process, be part of discussion and I could also need some help in testing 😉

[worn gazelle]

is there a preferred mod for making mining less tedious?

we are using the Top Mining one right now, but it still takes a week to mine stuff, and popping them takes just as long as ever.

i saw some that did AOE mining or increased the damage to ore, but im not sure which are current or most widely used? thx 🙂

[kind pumice]

This should still work https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/WiseHorror/Veinmine/

[worn gazelle]

it wont affect trying to dig ditches in specific shapes and stuff with the aoe?

i wonder if i will need to remove the top mining mod... it just let you sit there and wail away one a single tile and it would mine all the ore out of the vein, kinda... it left some over that you would have to do manually with it disabled most of the time.

I will give it a try 🙂

[hearty sphinx]

A week? Are you using your hands?

[worn gazelle]

feels like im using my face lol

it legit took more than one in game day it feels like to dig under some of the veins to pop them, or to mine them the normal way

we would build a little camp with repairs n stuff and storage

put some youtube vids on and plan to be there forever lol

[hearty sphinx]

I mean at most that's 30 minutes.

And it's usually quicker.

[worn gazelle]

yeah i dunno how long a day takes in game, but it seemed like we had night cycles, and also dealing with spawns, building fires n stuff to prevent spawns, transporting ore etc.

the mod that Advize iͣzͩeͮ just recommended is rly nice tho lol it made everything super ez.

[sleek otter]

I'm liking treesReborn. After you chop the stump it regrows a sapling.
That way you dont need seed to regrow them, but they drop seed every time you chop and rebirth them. Same applies to the trees you plant. Afaik it shouldn't add additional instances for existing trees that are reborn either.

Or you could use shudnal-tradersExtended, and add a yml that includes seed. Then go purchase that 100 acorns from a merchant.

[bitter marsh]

Two questions: with the plant everything mod, must you still have the base item in order to plant it? ie. to plant a blueberry bush you first need tp find a blueberry? 2) with FarmGrid, is the grid size configurable? does it allow you do mass plant like the discontinued massfarming mod?

[kind pumice]

A) Yea. B) Grid spacing is configurable C) No.

For updated FarmGrid use https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/VentureValheim/Venture_Farm_Grid/

For complete farming QoL including features like those found in MassFarming use PlantEverything's sister mod, PlantEasily. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Advize/PlantEasily/

[desert ginkgo]

Any one has mods list that only required to be on server side. So players wont need to install it

[kind pumice]

There are virtually no mods that are server side only, and the ones that are are very limited in what they can do

[clear lily]

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

I mean there is a few, but as you said, very limited.

many comfy mods require pc players to have the mod installed and use it, however the player without the mod see's the effect.

[woven scroll]

Hi, got a quick question, unsure if anyone might know how to help, but;

I'm trying to change the keybinds of some buttons of a mod I've installed. Found the config for it.
How would I go about entering it so I can use NumPad numbers? Trying to type those into the text box just enters it as a plain-text number.
What should I type for it to read as specifically a NumPad number? I would've assumed like 'NumPad_1' or something but I have truly no idea.

Says the setting type is 'KeyboardShortcut'. If that's helpful.
Thanks!

Ah I've figured it out I think, nevermind! Just inherited unity's ones it seems

[woven scroll]

Alright one more thing, I dont rly need help with it, but,
Through Thundercore, the config section for my valheim mods,
for one of them when I try to select "Open File" it just opens Minecraft 😭

[oak halo]

I've been using the expand world data mod to spawn in assets (like portals/iron veins) and additional mobs (with more than 2 stars) and chests with custom content during world gen.
It's obviously limited, but you can set properties (respawn time, max lvl, lvl up chance of spawners for example)

That's an old bepinex version/setup if it's looking for unstripped_corlib dir, that was removed awhile ago

[tranquil sundial]

latest version v5.4.2202

[clear lily]

nah, you probably will want to verify the game files and have it reinstall the game first. It sounds like you were using nexus and then switched to thunderstore, nexus tossed some old stuff in your games folder.
Just delete the valheim folder in your steam apps, then in steam library right click on valheim and have it verify the files, it should download a clean copy of the game. After that in R2modman/Thunderstore app create a new profile and download your mods.

[tranquil sundial]

I'd like to add i had the same error when i was using nexus manager for valhiem prior to switching to thunderstore. But I will do all the steps you listed and report back! Thank you!

[rocky plinth]

I can't post the image here, but I posted it here: #valheim-help message

there isn't really any "zone ownership" it's sort of first in the area is loading the area around them.

#mods-screenshots

[last trout]

where can i find these commands?

[weary island]

Find the mod over at thunderstore.io and click on it's "documentation" link.

[last trout]

I'm confused, maybe stupid but I'm not seeing any command that would reset ores... what am I missing?

there's a lot of commands that I don't quite understand what they mean though

[weary island]

Here's an example of the command you would use to reset the world's coper rocks.

vegetation_reset rock4_copper biomes=BlackForest start

That command would take several miinutes to reset copper deposits in the world. To use it you'd need to be able to get the prefab name 'rock4_cpoper' of the copper deposits in the first place. So it's not an easy thing to do that everyone would be expected to be able to do without doing the research.

Maybe there are easier ways to reset the ores in your world but I personally don't know of any. Maybe someone else will.

[last trout]

is it possible to reset only a small section? a radius from your character for example?

[weary island]

I don't know. Personally, I've never wanted to limit that command to a smaller area so I've never looked that up.

[last trout]

does it respawn the ores in the same locations that you mined them or random locations?

[languid hamlet]

It can be set to a radius at coords, and it'll respawn at same location but you can also run a different command to add resources.

[weary island]

Thanks for jumping in with that info, Nibel. 🙂

[worldly garnet]

Thank you, too @weary island for the info you gave above. I made a note of that mod and command because I know I'll get some use out of it in the future. The help is appreciated. 🫂

[last trout]

how can I ser a radius?

[languid hamlet]

building on Jaga's example, a 1500m radius would look like:

vegetation_reset rock4_copper biomes=BlackForest pos=X,Z max=1500 start

or you can do zones (64 x 64m squares), and max would be number of zones from the center one; in this example 3 zones away:

vegetation_reset rock4_copper biomes=BlackForest zone=X,Z max=3 start

Also, if you enter the command without using start at the end, it will give you an idea of how many zones will be reset, and how many were skipped.

[last trout]

I tried again, but this time it didn't work? the deposit is still empty

am I doing something wrong

[weary island]

Do you mean the command I gave you here #mods-discussion message ? Because I actually logged into my game and used that exact command there in my world first before I posted it here. Strictly copy/paste. No typing errors or anything.

It worked perfectly for me.

So, yes. You're doing something wrong.

Honestly, I think you need to back away slowly from this command and the UpgradeWorld mod and never try it again before you do some permanent damage to your world.

Hopefully, someone else will come up with a better solution for you. Good luck with it, in any event.

[last trout]

i think it was bc i was close to it or something bc the others did replenish

[autumn harbor]

anyone have any mods that make valheim harder?

Preferably new enemy types, or like horde style or raid changes

I wanna use hugos armory in my hardcore run but I feel like it will make the game too easy

[weary island]

You could try this one https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Alpus/BiomeDifficultyProgression/

[weary island]

Yes, that could be it. I'm sort of tempted to tell you about the 'force' option. But thinking better of it...

However, on the off chance that your typing on the F5 command line is about the same accuracy level as your typing in here, my recommendation to find a more tolerant solution than the UpgradeWorld mod still stands. Or, risk possible devastation of your world.

The risk/reward ratio here isn't optimal, really.

[autumn harbor]

omg this is likeexactly what i was looking for

[weary island]

Thanks! It's nice to win one now and then. I was so depressed I was thinking of going out to the garden and eating a worm and dying. I'll hold off on that for a while longer. Oh, and 'you're welcome'.

[worldly garnet]

Yes. Good idea to hold off on that. I'm sure the worm would agree.

[ebon nacelle]

@unborn gull I use Upgrade_World v1.68.0 by JereKuusela and I wanted to know how to calculate how close a build item can be in order for the mod to reset a dungeon, depending on dungeon sizes and what item is build and mod settings, and where in relation to a zone boundary it is

[weary island]

You mean how close in order for the mod to not reset the dungeon? Pretty close, actually. The exact distance varies with the type of dungeon.

You can figure maybe 15-20m or so on average. You can force it to reset the dungeon regardless of how close by adding the 'force' option to the command.

[ebon nacelle]

Yeah thats what I mean, I use "force" for the Mysterious Locations but not for the Crypts, mines, fortress etc

and on the "1" setting it might still not reset if it clips into a zone just by 1m and the build item is in the same zone 63m away

for the "2" setting it would be 127m

and if its a big sized dungeon model you could have something only 12m away in a certain direction and it would still reset

[weary island]

I think It's the size of the dungeon entrance 'location' not the size of the dungeon itself that matters.

[ebon nacelle]

Thanks, super useful knowledge like that is why I'm here!

Thats what I meant to I think, dungeons are like a Tardis, bigger on the inside, and I know the actual dungeon is high in the sky.

but some mine entrances are massive, if it counts the stairs part of an infested mine, not sure if it does or doesnt

[weary island]

You're right. It does count the stairs. 🙂

[ebon nacelle]

This mod is amazing for everyone getting the Dyrnwynn too

[weary island]

Yeah, it's up near the top of the list of Jere's amazing mods. Right up there with InfinityHammer.

[languid hamlet]

Look into Searica's SafetyStatus. It'll put a workbench icon on your status bar when inside a SafeZone. Helpful at determining if a thing will reset.

[ebon nacelle]

great is that client only?

[languid hamlet]

I can't recall, but I'd bet it is.

[boreal canopy]

Hey guys, I'm new to the server! Is it possible to install both ValheimPlus and Valheim Legends together?
Planning to do the same on a dedicated server. So far I am able to host a vanilla one

[hexed goblet]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ZenDragon/ZENHEIM/

That works single player or if you put it on a server it works multiplayer.

[clear lily]

lol I like it, a modpack within a modpack

"Yo dawg"

[fresh nebula]

is there a mod that helps reduce lag caused by instances? I am building a somewhat large village, but i went from 100+ fps to 30 fps when looking at it or in the vicinity of it.

[daring basin]

Instance doesn't matter.

[fresh nebula]

what is causing the lag/frame drop then?

terraforming?

[fossil hedge]

Whats the best epic loot augmented weapon you use in general?

I use porcupine club(I'm at plains level) with below augments
Throwing
Recalling
No movement penalty
Club skill +
Pierce damage +

Please suggest yours.

[fresh nebula]

im at plains rn and i use draugr fang with triple shot, bow skill +11, explosive arrows 20%, quick draw 20%, and i think piercing dmg X%

i use obsidian arrows rn too

2 shots a lox

my bow skill is also at 60 + 11 from the enchant

[fossil hedge]

I'll try it, do you use melee?

[fresh nebula]

i use iron sledge rn with throwable, returning, lightning dmg, blunt dmg

throwable sledge is op

huge splash dmg

[fossil hedge]

I'll make similar one in next biome with Demolisher double hand club.

[fresh nebula]

ok, btw if u want splash dmg with a throwable, make sure it doesnt have a primary/secondary attack. for example, with the bronze hammer, it only does splash dmg as a secondary attack, so when you throw it, it only dmgs 1 enemy

[hexed goblet]

Yes, it lets me separate core functionality from extras needed for polish or extended rules. Could drop epic loot or jc on it for example.

[clear lily]

yeah I like it

[fiery condor]

Can someone explain "CombatOwner"?

[tired crescent]

What do you need explained, other than what the mod page says?

[fiery condor]

What does it mean to be the "owner of a creature"?

[tired crescent]

The network owner

[fiery condor]

In functional terms. What would be different about what I see when playing?

[tired crescent]

You would see that you can more easily combat an enemy in multiplayer settings. Instead of getting hit...then the animation plays...or animation playing, then getting hit.

Additionally, would make it where the creature is visible to you...not lagging because someone with poor internet is controlling that creature on the network.

It drastically reduces the issues with combat in multiplayer overall.

[fiery condor]

Thanks I think I get it ... so basically it prioritizes syncing the server data + client's animation with the client that the creature is directly targeting, so the amount of desync doesn't change overall, just prioritizes it in a more useful way?

[tired crescent]

I guess you could word it like that. It's essentially elimination of the desync. By making you (if you're the target) the network owner so that you can better fight the creature.

Though, the creature could still be desyncing for others if your internet is poor or theirs is. Just to you (the target) it would be much smoother fighting experience.

[fiery condor]

Can you think of any reason why they wouldn't want that to be the vanilla behavior?

[tired crescent]

I guess because it's more a bandaid and not a "fix"

To truly fix the networking issues in Valheim...more things would need to be server-side controlled and synced to players with respective buffers.

it's also, very likely on the low priority for the Valheim devs at the moment.

[grave shore]

Hi all. I have difficulty seeing, so any fog, smoke, mist, or such really makes it a problem. Anyone know of a setting or mod to help with seeing in the Ashlands?

[slender kestrel]

Hmm, I know of a few to deal with the mist in mistlands, don't know how they work with the other fog etc in the game.

[weary island]

Try this mod. Check it's optional config values to set it the way you want. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/MistBeGone/

[grave shore]

Thanks, will try.

[slender kestrel]

That mod still has the best mod name and image.

[fossil hedge]

Thanks @tired crescent for creating such useful mods!

[last trout]

does anyone know the ID for iron ore for the upgradeworld mod? I can't find it

[thorny arrow]

If you mean literally that unused item "IronOre", otherwise "IronScrap" is what you get from the piles... or do you mean the scrap piles themselves: "mudpile". This page can help a ton: https://valheim-modding.github.io/Jotunn/data/prefabs/prefab-list.html

[last trout]

the ores themselves, the rock you cut

[weary island]

The one that looks like a pile of rocks? Probably this one, then. You could check it first with the "hammer MineRock_iron" command to make sure it's the right one.

[last trout]

whays the hammer command? what's it do?

[weary island]

Puts the item on your hammer ready to be placed with a click.

[hearty sphinx]

Do mods not come with documentation these days?

[weary island]

They do but sadly the servers also come with Admins too busy to read them. 😢

@last trout where are you? Are you still doing your Happy Dance in the other room? Or, out on the garage roof sobbing and ready to jump?

What happened with the hammer command I suggested?

[tired crescent]

He's also too busy to read your response now.

[languid sapphire]

is there a mod to stop over from opening automaticly?

[sly mango]

Is the marketplace and server NPC’s mod compatible with cross play?

[last trout]

they*

[last trout]

I don't have cheats enabled so didn't use it

[weary island]

Oh, ok. So you wanted to know "the ID for iron ore for the upgradeworld mod" and you "don't have cheats enabled". Hmm...

You were asking for a friend, then. I guess.

Well, I hope he/she got it sorted out.

[fresh nebula]

i need major help. Apexhosting which is use to host my server, had a huge data loss and it deleted all 50 of my .dll files. To redownload and extract every one would take very long. Im wondering if there is a way to bulk download/find all the .dll files from r2modman

could there be a folder that holds all the mods for r2modman?

[weary island]

Assuming that r2modman is running on your local LAN, then use it's Settings > Browse Profile Folder option.

[fresh nebula]

ive found the mods folder for r2modman, but all the folders are empty

[fresh nebula]

i think that's what i did, but none of the .dll files are there

[fresh nebula]

#dedicated-server

[weary island]

The .dll files would be in the r2modman Settings > Browse Profile Folder > BepInEx > plugins folder. Inside their own folders there.

[warm zenith]

Hello. Does anyone have any good suggestions for mods that protect your pets? Example being, I found a mod that makes it so a pet faints instead of dies when it's health gets low enough, but it's outdated. Any suggestions?

[mint shore]

anyone having problems with BetterUI mod not loading

i have everything installed, and the game doesntload it

[weary island]

I don't see any newer mods for preventing pet deaths. Try the old one and see if it could possibly be still working.

Try it on a test world and, If it gives errors and doesn't work, you can always just remove it.

[warm zenith]

Hi, thanks for your response. I did download the pet protection mod and it makes the pets immortal. Honestly I might just use it as is XD Again thanks for taking the time to chat. 👍

[weary island]

Check your game logs for errors to see if it really isn't loading and why. Maybe it's loading and you just need to set it's options correctly?

[mint shore]

can i send u an image in dms if u can see in the console the code

[weary island]

No, best to work on issues in here so everyone benefits from the experience. Just look for a line in there that begins with "ERROR" and then it or the next few lines mention BetterUI.

Also, did it ever work or did you just now install it for the first time? And have you installed anything else at the same time the problem started?

[mint shore]

Well i had it installed 2 years ago, but since then i havent played the game a lot, so i recently started again and wanted to have the mods that i used to play with, all the other mods load perfectly like clock mod, trash, hotkeys and all that

Its just the BetterUI when i put it in plugins folder it doesnt load and it corrupts my game to the point where i cant even load a world

[weary island]

Ok, then. Check to make sure you're loading the right version of it. It's here https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/BetterUI_ForeverMaintained/BetterUI_ForeverMaintained/

[mint shore]

Gonna try rn, ill update you

@weary island Youre a legend, Thank you.

Somehow this version from thunderstore works, the one that i downloaded on NexusMods doesnt.

[weary island]

Yeah, nexus doesn't work well all the time with Valheim. I always use thunderstore.io instead. It's more reliable and easier to use.

[mint shore]

As soon as i saw the ForeverMaintained text, i knew that was an outdated version on Nexus that i was using

[next basin]

Hey, does anyone have seasonality on their server? Is it synced for every player? On mine every player is in a different season

[weary island]

Have you checked the mod's config file **on the server **for an option to turn Server Sync on/off?

[copper copper]

did some google searching but turned up nothing, has anyone added a tweak to the magic system to allow for a music-based line? Looking for some sort of Skald-type play

[autumn harbor]

any one have good mods that add weapons that are based in reality

Or armor especially armor

[dusky rapids]

Hey there, just a tiny question. If you uninstall a mod that adds items and you load back into the game, do these items just disappear or does the game crash and the save becomes unusable?

[weary island]

The items just disappear but, if they were holding up a building, then the building falls down. Removing mods won't crash the game directly but can cause problems in certain cases.

Best to do it on a test copy of the world first.

[dusky rapids]

Ah, I see. Because I have installed a plugin that adds more magic weapons and I was wondering if I should just remove em later down the line. I just wanted magic weapon for early and midgame til I get to ashlands, the later stuff they added is highkey broken

[cedar agate]

We are using the MonsterLabZ mod by MonsterLabZFix. When my friend and I started the new game, the well showed up at first, but now it doesn't show up for both of us. We need to learn where the bosses are, but we can't find the well. When I create a new world, the well shows up, but when I play a save with my friend, the well doesn't show up for both of us. So it seems like there is nothing wrong with the mod. How can we find the well?

[summer tartan]

#general message I don't use mods and don't intend to, but if someone makes a sound effect mod substituting fight sounds with Bud Spencer & Terence Hill punch/slap sound i could change my mind

[carmine stratus]

Is there a mod for placing dead trees or logs? world assets skeleton piles like

[weary island]

I use InfinityHammer and ComfyGizmo together for that.

[carmine stratus]

Cool where can i find ComfyGizmo?

[weary island]

Which MonsterLabz are you using?

How are you doing multi-player? In-game server? Dedicated server? Hosted Server?

Check the instructions for MonsterLabZ to see if you need UpgradeWorld mod's "locations_add" command to put the well 'location' on an existing world.

[weary island]

Here https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ComfyMods/Gizmo/

[carmine stratus]

How does the Gizmo works?

[weary island]

It works really well for me. It lets me rotate objects in any angle I want before placing them.

[carmine stratus]

Oh so it just rotates building?

[weary island]

It rotates each piece before you place it. And, if you can pick up a bulding with another mod like InfinityHammer, it can rotate buildings, too.

What do you mean it "just" rotates building? What did you expect it to do?

[carmine stratus]

I thought it wound build or place world assets

[weary island]

You didn't read my post. "I use InfinityHammer and ComfyGizmo together for that."

[carmine stratus]

huh.. i think I'm reading it wrong.. so you build custom world assest?

[dusky rapids]

Got a little question. Does anyone know their way around with the Valheim Player Models mod?

[weary island]

You said, "Is there a mod for placing dead trees or logs? world assets skeleton piles like" and I told you how to do that. You didn't ask how to build custom world assets.

[dusky rapids]

Like, I've got an issue with the custom model there. Mainly the character doesn't properly hold two handed objects, like the cultivator, atgeirs etc and I've been wondering if anyone knows how to fix that

[weary island]

It's posible that, if anyone knew how to fix that, they'd have made a mod to do it. You can search over at thunderstore.io to see if there's any mods that do that.

[carmine stratus]

I'm still confused. I'll send a picture of what I'm specifying or trying to build/place as a world asset.

[weary island]

Got it. That's a tree stump and a rock. InfinityHammer will let you pick up things like that in the world and Gizmo will let you rotate them any way you want.

Then you can place them however you want. Are you asking how to stick things like that in a building wall or something?

Edit: Oh, it's a log not a rock. Same thing, though. Pick it up and put it anywhere you want.

[carmine stratus]

Yes finally

[weary island]

You want to do this on your solo game or on a server?

[carmine stratus]

Both

[weary island]

Then you need to load up both mods on your game for solo game and also be an Admin on the server to do it there, too.

[carmine stratus]

Ah okay thanks 👍

[weary island]

If you want something like the log to have 'snap points' so it'll snap into place like an actual building piece, that'll take more work to do. A mod like InfinityHammer or PlanBuild might be able to do that but it won't be easy.

[carmine stratus]

I'm fine with snap points

[cedar agate]

We are using this mod: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/MonsterLabZFix/MonsterLabZ/

We are playing with in-game server.

[weary island]

I don't know what you meant by that but, if you're saying you don't need snap points, that's great.

[weary island]

Ok. So, if I understand the problem, when you use the mod on a new world, it puts the well in there with no problem. But if you add the mod to an old world, it doesn't add the well. Have I got that right?

BTW, that's the right version of the mod. It should work.

[cedar agate]

Yes, you understood the problem correctly. I guess I'll have to use the UpgradeWorld mod and add

[weary island]

Right. And to do so, you'll need to have the name of the 'location' that is the well.

The WorldEdit mod gives you the 'object info' command so that you can hover over the well, enter the 'object info' command and see it's prefab name in the text it shows you.

Then, you can use that name in your UpgradeWorld mod's "locations_add" command to place the well in the old world.

Here's an example of how that would work with the Bogwitch camp location. Same as would be with the well's location.

Enter the console command: locations_add BogWitch_Camp force ('force' is an option there. Use it on a test world copy first)

then  enter:  start locations_add BogWitch_camp


then enter:   find bogWitch_camp  (To see where it put it).

[cedar agate]

Thank you for your help. I'll try.

[surreal gull]

are there any mods that would allow me to destroy runestones and the stones that make up the giant stone circles in the meadows? they get in the way a lot..

[weary island]

I think InfinityHammer would do that.

[surreal gull]

ill try it out

[exotic arch]

Hello, I have a quick question. Does anyone know if there is a mod that turns off the death kitos?

[slender kestrel]

You could do it with CLLC and editing the YAML files. Which is likely going to be a bit complex for just that.

[weary island]

What do you mean by "death kitos" ?

[exotic arch]

The little annoying flying mosquitoes on the plains

[slender kestrel]

Another way I found, though also a bit complicated, was using the Faction mod, and edit the file to set the squito's hostile to other monsters in plains. So most of the time lox or gobbos killed them for me.

[exotic arch]

Good idea, thank you. I'll try it right away

[exotic arch]

I found something better... "DjsBugspray" by MrDj200 works really well. But thanks for helping

[south grove]

HI everyone, i have a problem. I just tried running a modded world on public test ( only 8 mods). Valheim opens up normally, but when the world is generating this error pops out:
[Error : Unity Log] MissingMethodException: Method not found: Minimap/PinData .Minimap.AddPin(UnityEngine.Vector3,Minimap/PinType,string,bool,bool,long,string)
Stack trace:
CreatureLevelControl.WorldLevelMinimapCircles+PatchMinimapCirclesPins.Postfix (Minimap __instance) (at <a2374aeca43f4a1bbb8ff0d0e1302f54>:0)
(wrapper dynamic-method) Minimap.DMDMinimap::LoadMapData(Minimap)
(wrapper dynamic-method) Minimap.DMDMinimap::Update(Minimap)

And idk what does it mean

After a while, Valheim just crashes

[weary island]

It means you shouldn't be running mods on the PTB server. It's for testing vanilla updates for the game.

[south grove]

Rly ? Before it worked just fine with public-test, this is the first time it does this

[weary island]

Rly

[south grove]

Yeah. I played mostly with bigger modpacks, around 20 mods.

[tired crescent]

Well by definition the PTB can change and is unstable. But, you should know that if you signed up to test it

[twin marsh]

anyone know what the keybind mod is over in #mods-screenshots message?

[pearl garden]

im looking into doing a modded session of valheim but i have no idea what

ive looked over mods but theres preety much just life mods

nothin to do with the core gameplay

[weary island]

Do a search over at thunderstore.io for modpaks. Choose one that's not for a specific server and has been updated by it's author within the last 4-5 months or so.

[pearl garden]

oh shit

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Soloredis/RtDMMO/

this looks preety good

[weary island]

Load it up with the r2modman manager. That makes it easy to control the individual mods. So you can customize it to your liking.

[desert sorrel]

does anyone know what the alpha1 key bind is? Trying the Forsaken overhaul mod and cannot figure out which button it is.

[weary island]

Try the "G" key.

[surreal gull]

it took me a while to figure out that i had to go into the config and set it so im able to destroy them lol, but it works so thanks for the suggestion

[weary island]

Excellent. And, while you were in there, you probably found a bunch of other awesome configs in there, too. It's good to know they're there, if you ever need them. 😄

[surreal gull]

yep i did, i love how customizable most mods are through the config

[desert sorrel]

G works to cycle through them, but once i get to the back to the deer, it won't let me cycle again unless i go to the stones

[weary island]

What does the "F" key do in that case?

[desert sorrel]

F doesn’t do anything unfortunately which is extremely odd. It had listed in the options different short cuts like alpha 2, 3, 4

[weary island]

Maybe "G" with Shift, Ctrl, or Alt?

[desert sorrel]

Tried that no luck. It may be because I have 2 forsaken powers mods active at once.

[weary island]

Yeah, could be.

[frosty silo]

Hi everyone, im about to build a village and a i wanted to go for a huge castle (which is tall) but i have an issue with heights while building! do you have mods to upgrade items strength so i can ho way higher? (like a mod who makes all builds goes blue)! thanks

[weary island]

On a server or on your solo game?

[frosty silo]

solo

but i will invite a couple of friends once ill finish it i guess

[weary island]

There are mods that suspend the rules of building structure. But if someone comes along with out the mod on his game, the building collapses. So you should avoid those kinds of mods.

You need a mod that can give the building infinite health, with no height limit, without the mod being needed by other players.

I personally use InfinityHammer to give buildings infinite health, although there may be other mods that can do that as well. Just be very careful which mod you choose.

[frosty silo]

Thanks so moch, didnt know about the collapsing thing, i will try InfintyHammer first ! Made my day

[weary island]

You'll need to go into it's configs and select infinite health there. An in-game mod configuration manager makes that much easier. Like this one, for instance https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/Official_BepInEx_ConfigurationManager/

[frosty silo]

Aleady using it for others mods, thanks bro 🙂

[worn zenith]

Anyone else have an issue with CraftFromContainers not working? I see an error at startup that could be causing it to not work.

[weary island]

I can't find a mod with that name. Maybe you should go over to thunderstore.io and replace it with a mod from there that does the same thing and is updated for the BogWitch version of the game.

[worn zenith]

I edited it to the correct name right after I posted, sorry

I reinstalled the mod just in case so I'm testing that at the moment

[weary island]

I know this one works, if you need a new one. https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/AzuCraftyBoxes/

[frosty silo]

( @weary island update : Infinity hammer was excaclty what i was looking for, thanks again, really enjoy it)

[worn zenith]

@weary island Thank you! I'm about to test if reinstalling worked. If not, I'll grab that, thanks!

[slender kestrel]

Interestingly, I've had trouble with that mod for the last few weeks after coming back to the game, and had to resort to the CraftFromContainers mod instead.

Was a surprise to me, as Azu's mods usually work very well and is maintained.

[kind pumice]

Just an update on this, the mod is functionally 100% done. Will just need to make some basic documentation, package it for release, and publish it. ETA: Within next 24 hours. Have to sleep and work first.

[hexed goblet]

You may find that they are less of a bother if you have a way to target lock onto them:
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ZenDragon/ZenTargeting/

[hexed goblet]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ZenDragon/ZenWorldSettings/
this will change core mechanics

[hexed goblet]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ZenDragon/ZenSign/

This is an alternative concept to crafting from containers. It is NOT craft from containers but it is a whole other way to solve the problem of finding things.

[tired crescent]

Probably just hitting the hot key to toggle it on and off. Without realizing it.

Can also just use AzuAutoStore to find things. Simply type the command in the chat window (/azuautostoresearch), followed by the name of the item or word it might contain. Typing azu and hitting tab usually auto completes the command.

Works really well with AzuCraftyBoxes.

Will also ping the containers the items are in.

[slender kestrel]

Ironically that's the other Azu mod I've struggled to get to work :)

I do run several other of your mods and they work well, so much appreciated btw!

[tired crescent]

Well, what’s not working about them? As they are some of my most popular mods. I doubt they are broken otherwise I’d be pinged like crazy.

[hexed goblet]

they work when i test them ⬆️

[tired crescent]

Actually reassessing. AzuCraftyBoxes is my current most popular.

[slender kestrel]

I haven't sat down and fully ran through finding if there's conflicting mods yet. Which is why I haven't bothered pestering you about it yet.

[tired crescent]

Not many mods aren’t compatible with them. Since they are vastly built for compatibility in mind. They aren’t perfect, but more compatible than the counterparts.

Feel free to reach out if you feel like you’ve done everything and they still do not work.

Just, make sure you’re not toggling the functionality off with the hotkey….that can only be used outside of UI. And pay attention to the message above the players head if you do.

[slender kestrel]

Yeah, I'll test further first. I don't like giving error reports before I've ran through things first. Though I think I mostly ran through and disabled all the extra keys, because I really dislike having keys I don't know what do active.

Just been distracted by other stuff taking my time, so haven't had time to sit down and test that specifically, so I just slapped in a couple of other mods for that as a temp meassure.

[pulsar locust]

Hey. anyone know of any good modpacks that works well with multiplayer 4-5 players?

we are fans of games like greenhell and played alot of RLcraft so any modpack that will make us want to alt+f4 irl is a perfect fit for us

[marsh parcel]

Any mod where you can shoot a bow or crossbow well riding a lox/askvin?

[tired crescent]

No

[fiery condor]

@shy timber

Any idea why I can't find Ragnarok from the Thunderstore app? Had to manually download it.

How do I get the event to start? I can see it load but I've waited a while and nothing happens.

[Info   :   BepInEx] Loading [Ragnarok 0.0.1]
[Info   :Ragnarok.Ragnarok] Ragnarok has landed

Your discord link at https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/bid/Ragnarok/ doesn't work.

[shy timber]

Strange, I have no idea. You can start it using the console command "ragnarok start", then wait 20 seconds. It still needs to be tweaked here and there. It would be great if you could share your experience, maybe with a short footage so I see what needs to be tweaked first. Have fun!

[celest marsh]

@tired crescent btw azuskilltweaks seemingly breaks after the "ui optimization" changes from last patch, cannot jump, etc. ( caused by error with displaying skill gain)

[hearty sphinx]

I'd imagine many mods broke this morning. Give people a few hours at least...

[finite quest]

https://tenor.com/view/burn-muppet-elmo-feu-enfer-gif-9486925285976103980

When you finally have some free time to yourself to play Valheim and you find out it's updated and broke all your mods. I guess theres always next week

[tired crescent]

Thanks for the ping. It's updated.

[hearty sphinx]

90% of actively developed mods will be fixed within a day or two
Cool your heels.

Or just roll back the server temporarily.

[pliant badger]

Is Bepin deprecated? I'm seeing last update as August of last year and I'm not able to get it to run even with rollbacks to pre-bw.
Not played since september or so.

[tired crescent]

No

It works fine. Deprecated means it would be tagged as such

[pliant badger]

...tagged where.

People drop projects and move on to others all the time. 'swhy I asked.

[sharp aurora]

Bepinex really hasn't needed to update much anymore since valheim stopped stripping dlls

[pliant badger]

Was gonna say, I'm seeing May as the last update on the github page. No idea why Bepin's not launching with valheim now, though.
Looks like 'clean install' is the only suggestion I'm finding. RIP.

[kind pumice]

BepInEx was forked to produce a version tailored for Valheim. It is managed by us as a community and will always have maintainers. Download it here: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/denikson/BepInExPack_Valheim/

[tired crescent]

On the mod page itself, if you go directly to it.

otherwise, you won't find it when it's deprecated unless you turn on the filter to see them

Example of what that looks like: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/Clutter_Sign_Component_Fix/

[pliant badger]

Waaait, my bad, I forgot I swapped to a mod manager over manual installs last year. Bepin's probably not running because I'm bypassing the mod manager--
Yep, that got it.

[pliant badger]

I was using the github page. Wasn't on thunderstore so didn't know what you meant.

[tired crescent]

Yeah, thunderstore has the only working and dedicated version for Valheim.

under the community valheim pages.

is there a mod that makes changes apply for everyone? for instance when i change the weather with commands, it only changes when i play singleplayer; is there a mod which makes the change apply to everyone on multiplayer?

[timid wigeon]

What is the easiest way to see what mod has been broken?

Also is disabling a mod the same as uninstalling it ?

[hearty sphinx]

Disable one by one.

[hearty sphinx]

If you're using a mod manager, yes, if not then it might still interfere.

[timid wigeon]

Ok ty

[fiery condor]

Thanks, the console command worked. I actually prefer for it to work this way, so if I'm gathering a bunch of people together to say goodbye to an old server, we can choose when it starts, especially if waiting for people to log on. Here's the footage of testing it out solo #mods-screenshots message

[fresh bolt]

Hello all! Does anyone here use/have experience using Dathost to host their modded valheim servers? My friend and I are having an issue after this latest patch of mismatched valheim version. Our games have updated to the patch but we can’t get the Server to update. We’ve taken the steps dathost has listed such as rebooting the server manually etc and it just won’t update for some reason. We reached out to dathost and their response was just a copy and paste “make sure your mods are updated and update the server” even though it won’t. Any help is appreciated tysm!

[fiery condor]

I've used dathost, and iirc, it took them about a day before a new patch applied.

[chilly tiger]

Are there any mods for music (different tunes and covers)?

[shy timber]

Thanks for sharing, nice try to survive 🤣 I love the moment where you open the door and everything falls apart 🤣 How did you like it? Things you would change?

[fiery condor]

It's great! I have an old world i played with a group of people, and my goal is to get them all to come back "one last time to say goodbye in a special way", and have this happen with them expecting as little as possible lol

[shy timber]

yet, it does not perfectly scale with player count. at the moment I think, more than three players at the same place should probably be max at the moment. something i will change so it scales better. another thing I am thinking of, is making option to disable god mode. by now you noticed you are always in god mode, otherwise you would just not live quite long. but maybe making an option to try to survive as long as possible with some highsore and damage statistics or something like that could be an interesting option. what do you say?

[copper copper]

I remember about a year ago someone was doing like a complete RPG inside Valheim that was gonna be released as a mod pack....did that ever happen? Anyone got a link?

[thorny arrow]

I think it died out? Not really sure, but the guys who made the map finished and released it. Someone might have the link handy, there was a bunch of youtube videos that might have it

[daring basin]

mod that can has unlimited carry weight andslots

[pearl garden]

is there anything i can do for my keybinds, cause my running keybind seems to be some kind of ability

like a extra mod maybe for more keybinds

[weary island]

Your running keybind can be changed in your vanilla game settings menu.

[cobalt cairn]

Do you mean keybind settings for the mods you're using? Those are in the configs

[surreal gull]

just witnessed all the stumps in my tree graveyard resprout, this works perfectly lol

[kind pumice]

Nice! It retains previous tree rotation and scale as well so it's like it was never cut down at all

[surreal gull]

thats pretty cool, i dont usually like cutting down the really big oak trees just because of how cool they look.
one thing im seeing though is yellow leaves on some of the meadows birches, as if they spawned in the plains

[kind pumice]

That would only happen with stumps that were created before the mod was added. If the mod isn't present at the time the tree is cut down, it can't preserve the name of the tree that spawned the stump. Because all 4 birch variants share a stump, it picks one of the trees at random to replace it.

[surreal gull]

ah, that makes sense

thanks for making the mod though, it'll definitely help reduce the incredibly boring part of making large builds in survival

[kind pumice]

I had actually intended to make sure it at least picked a non plains birch if you weren't in the plains, but I forgot about that and left the RNG as a fallback. Sorry about that.

[surreal gull]

no problem, I don't see any good mods on version 1.0

[kind pumice]

I'll add it to my todo list and after that the mod should probably work for months or years to come without intervention.

Thanks for the mod request btw. I had fun making it and it got me back into active modding. I actually have another one in development that will allow trees to spread and forests to grow.

[stiff jasper]

are there any mods that prevent monsters from attacking builds etc? tired of having to rebuild torches everytime a greyling decides he wants to mess my shit up

[thorny arrow]

There's many ways around this, not sure about the attacking, but you can make piece have high health https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ComfyMods/GetOffMyLawn/. Or use wards that push out creatures, or protect your base, Azumatt has a few.

[candid parrot]

Hi all, does anyone know a Permadeath mod that actually is permadeath (meaning your character deletes when died - preferably map too). All the modsa I can find that are supposedly 'permadeath' are not, your character just resets in the same world.

[rose minnow]

why did it not show up when i was searching for it? Well thank u

[finite quest]

I have 80ish mods. I tried restarting and the problem persisted, but the problem resolved after disabling the Dual Wield mod. To confirm that it was definitely Dual Wield I re-enabled it and... The problem was still gone. So either it has simply resolved itself somehow or maybe running the game briefly without it enabled fixed something in my player file 🤷🏽‍♂️ It's worth trying

[marble saffron]

Is there a mod the prohibits player to use certain items in a world/server? cheat items like sword/sledgecheat?

[oak halo]

What do you mean by "use"? Should it prevent them from equiping the items or straight up delete them from their inventory?

[weary island]

WackysDatabase mod comes to mind. But I've never used it for that so you'd have to check it out and see.

[candid parrot]

Anyone know a working permadeath mod where your death deletes character and world (to avoid temptation and raise the stakes)

[languid hamlet]

AzuAntiCheat will detect a number of things, like their mod versions, modding apps, and even damage output, and kick them from the session.

WackyDB could work, by editing the cheat sword/sledge dmg to zero, but AntiCheat probably would give you more control, however, you have to maintain two folders of which mods you'll allow.

[marble saffron]

I see, thanks for the answers! Appreciated!

Is there a mod for modifying boat speed? i'm hosting a boat race for my server

[solar cedar]

Hello guys

I got some questions regarding modded multiplayer.

I'm acting as a scout for my friends so that I can test modded Valheim and see what set of mods we should use.
I'm using R2ModMan.

Once I find a set of mods that I think is good, chances are I will host the game for the bros cause the beefiest PC is mine by a landslide.

How can I help them download the mods, and how can I be sure that we all share the same config for said mods ?

[steady rampart]

Has anyone found or know of a mod that will kill the haze/ashrain/fog/mist in ashlands? It's laggy and giving me a headache. I have tried mistbegone but that doesn't seem to remove these affects.

[slender kestrel]

Someone suggested trying the Mist-B-Gone mod, but I didn't hear if it worked on ashlands or not.

[steady rampart]

yeah i have tried that

it doesnt work on the heat affect or whatever it is

[slender kestrel]

:(

[steady rampart]

so annoying, to stick with a game and then find it umplayable

un*

oh well on to Enshrouded I guess

[weary island]

If you and your friends all use the thunderstore.io's r2modman mod manager, you can put together any group of mods you want into a profile inside the mod manager.

Then when you're ready, you can export a profile code and send it to your friends. That lets your friends use the profile code to load the exact same mods, with the configs you've set, into a profile on their r2modman managers.

[solar cedar]

Oh that's very cool, ty

[weary island]

Make sure you have all of it's config options set the way you want them. And explore the game's graphics settings in the game's main menu, too.

[steady rampart]

Have you been able to reduce or remove the affect in Ashlands?

[weary island]

I'm not bothered by the effects I see in Ashlands. I have no lag there and the ambient atmospheric effects aren't very noticeable for me.

That may be due to my long term use of the MistBeGone mod by Azumatt or the Graphics game settings I use. I set those to minimums some time ago before Ashlands ever came out.

[steady rampart]

ok ty, I will check out the game settings

EASYSPAWNER MOD: Looking at all the itmes in game etc, but the Mod doesnt seem to work when I push the key for the menu to show up. It installed via R2Modman like the others. But the F1 key to open the mod in game isnt opening the menu. Any one out there know why or happy to offer an opinion. FYI Modders here rocks, Epic work people. Thanks

[hearty sphinx]

Has it been updated since the last patch?

[robust gulch]

Yes, it Auto Updates last one was yesterday : Current Ver is 1.6.1 by Cooleyy

[hearty sphinx]

No, it definitely doesn't auto-update, it would need the dev to update the mod. Which would be necessary after the recent game patch.

According to the website 1.6.2 is the latest version.

[robust gulch]

I guess that would be it then, its by Cooleyy Ver 1.6.1

[hearty sphinx]

it even says 'Fix Menu UI object not appearing in new UI update'

[robust gulch]

Where I didnt see that

I dont want a deep north mod but i want some changes to the existing biomes and new weapons and all that. i tried modding but its difficult and i cant find out what mods work and whats compatible with what

[hexed goblet]

you could install Zenheim as a base layer for QoL and rule changes. Then put Warfare + Monstrum + Wizardry (+ optionally Armory but turn off the Armory Forge) on top of it to have a fairly close to vanilla experience with a greatly improved QoL and a bunch of new monsters and weapons.

[abstract heart]

So I was trying to find information about HUDcompass mod not working correctly (resolved) but in doing that I saw mentions about a mod for making pins while out adventuring and using NOMAP mode... does anyone have recommendations for a good mod to do such a thing

use it with:

[thorny arrow]

That one's been broken for a while I thought, I use dumpster fire https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ComfyMods/DumpsterFire/

[tired crescent]

I vastly prefer https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Azumatt/Recycle_N_Reclaim/ but I'm biased. No direct trash can, but optional resource returns. Has both the delete key (behind admin only by default) and a recycle tab. Compatible resource returns with Jewelcrafting and EpicLoot.

Quickly trash flag with hotkeys while in inventory etc.

[hexed goblet]

https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ZenDragon/ZenRecycle/

ZenRecycle has a SmashTrash option available that lets you smash stuff on the ground. By default it's admin only, but you can change that in the configs.

[thorny arrow]

OPTIONS lol Did we miss any?

[thorny arrow]

How does one smash trash? Is it a command?

Oh nevermind

I need to add in some effects to my NPCS mod like this, awesome feature!

[tired crescent]

Yes, simply turn the resources returned to 0

that's why I said above "optional resource returns"

but tons of authors have their own spin on how it should work 😛

[hexed goblet]

just point at the item on the ground and press the smash button. poof fire it's gone.

[tired crescent]

Now that's nice

I assume a claim ownership, and ZNetView or ZNetScene destroy?

[hexed goblet]

yes

[tired crescent]

That's a good feature. Might be a slight confusing one when claiming isn't immediate.

but, good.

[hexed goblet]

// smash it! itemDrop.m_nview.ClaimOwnership(); itemDrop.m_nview.Destroy();

glad you like it 🙂

[sacred folio]

why does the game crash? is there something wrong with the mods

[ebon vault]

Did you recently upgrade to the most recent version of Valheim without checking the docs/news/releases of your mods to make sure that your mod versions would be compatible with your Valheim version?

(not criticizing or anything, it's just the first release we've had in a little while and it had a good bit of mod-breaking changes)

[pliant jasper]

Anyone know of a "Tracker" mod that lets you track mobs?

[frank steeple]

I apologize if this has been answered, but does anyone have any experience with adding server mods through valhost via the regular setting and FTP?

Never set them up before and have been trying to find an FAQ or tutorial

[daring basin]

There should be FTP info on your dashboard you can use to login with any FTP software.

Ah, click FTP Mode

[frank steeple]

I've logged in with FTP through file zilla, but I just have no knowledge on how to actually add the mods through it. I know you can drag and drop files into the config folder, but as for unzipping winrar packs into it I'm unsure. Also, with FTP do other players need to install the mods separately still with Bepinex, or does the function of FTP circumvent that?

Curious as to what the benefit of FTP vs regular server mod enabling through the control panel is

[daring basin]

You have a folder called config and then a folder called plugins.
Put dlls into the plugins folder.

Never use a service own mod installer option, always use FPT software to manually install your mods.

[frank steeple]

Gotcha gotcha. So just the dll is needed and not the json? Does doing this enable it for all players so that they do not need to install on their own PC separately?

[weary island]

There are very few mods that are installed on the server only. Most mods need to be installed on the player's games. Watch for mods that come with .cfg files. Those should be put in the BepInEx config folder. They might contain custom configuration options by the author.

Look at the mod's web page icons at thunderstore.io and they will say at the bottom "Server" or "Client" or sometimes "Both". To show where they need to be installed.

[frank steeple]

Noted. So then what I'll need to do is install the mods by dragging the .dll to the plugin folder in FTP and then direct players to download the mods on their own if they aren't client sided.

I appreciate the help and clarification 🙏

[weary island]

That's right. However, you can just unzip the mods folders and put the whole folder in the BepInEx plugins folder. Either the whole folder or just the .dll file will work.

[frank steeple]

Should I recommend that players install BepInEx over r2modman for their own downloads?

[weary island]

Also, with r2modman, you can set up your player mods the way you want them and then send the other players a profile code they can use to create a profile and d/l the mods and config files automatically.

[weary island]

Yes.

[hexed goblet]

like, track with the camera ? like target lock? or do you mean track as in track it on the map?

[pliant jasper]

I mean like visible tracks, or even just a minimap pin.

[hexed goblet]

ahh... no idea, sorry. but generally monsters don't go far from where you spotted them

they kind of hang out in one place wherever they spawned.

And they're both updated Mar 11

Wait thats installed lol

AutoMapPins was updated Oct 30, that might be the problem.

Also probably redundant with the other 2 blacks7ar mods I have.

it's probably a conflict. i use AutoMapPins by FixItFelix just fine. (and yeah, things do get pretty cluttered, but i like it lol)

Right now my server is running on the default_old beta available in steam because our mobpack was broken by the current patch.

How does version control work for this game? I see they have snapshots from before each major update, but when the next patch comes out, will default_old get bumped up to this current patch?

[hearty sphinx]

That is what happens, yes.

[timber parrot]

Thanks dude. Do you know of any way of maintaining a specific patch version that isn't available as a steam beta?

[sharp aurora]

On server it's easy don't update it, client side is a pain to get steam not to update it

[zinc harbor]

hello can someone help me with my mode pack on ThunderStore ? ther is a code 01958ad9-9615-52df-6e14-08b4f6e59ff5 and my problem is that i dont know what is wrong cant use items like swords hammer etc.

[timber parrot]

Yeah. I've had this issue for other games. It's frustrating that steam doesn't provide the ability to actually choose whether or not to update a game.

[hollow yarrow]

so im thinking about starting a moded valheim server (I have ran dedicated server just vanilla, no mods, multiple times before and am familiar with how to set that up). but my question is when im on the Thunderstore mod website, how do i know if its a client side or server side mod because isnt that a thing:? for example like this equipment slot mod https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/RandyKnapp/EquipmentAndQuickSlots/

[weary island]

Almost all mods are client side. With mods like the one you show, the only reason to put it on the server would be if you wanted it required by all of your players and/or wanted to force everyone to have exactly the same configuraton of the mod.

[hollow yarrow]

ya i want everyone to be the same

will they still have to download the mods locally on their side via r2modman? it seems so

[weary island]

Yes, they would. But you can set all the mods up in a profile on your r2modman and then export a profile code to the players that will allow them to auto d/l the exact same mods and the configuration settings you've given them.

[hollow yarrow]

Gotcha ok thanks

[hollow yarrow]

sorry one last question...do the mods get their settings setup from the server admins settings? like for example the plant everything has an option to change the respawn times of things it seems like...would all our settings be syncd up via the admin?

oh nvm just saw theres a server sync setting on that mod. assuming its same for others

[tired crescent]

IF the mod syncs the configurations, the mod would need to be installed on the server and all clients to have that happen. Generally admins can use the Configuration Manager in game to change settings that support it....live. (ServerSync and Jotunn sync required).
Otherwise, server reboots and manual edits.

IF the mod does not sync configurations or is labeled as client-side (Like the Equipment And Quickslots mod) then the configs are free for anyone to change on their local machine without that syncing to the ones of the mods loading on the server.

Not all mods sync configs. Not all mods support live changing of them either.

[hollow yarrow]

what would happen if somenoe is using an addon not on the server? would it just not let htem log in?

[tired crescent]

If the server isn't using the Anticheat, or otherwise forcing them to have specific mods. No, likely they could just sign right in. Since most things are client side.

[hollow yarrow]

whats everyones favorite storage / organization addon(s)?

all of mine. I'm to lazy to put them on nexus.
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/ZenDragon/

[grim seal]

may I ask if there is any reason they are not on nexus mods?

[hexed goblet]

because i don't want to spend so much effort to upload and maintain them on two sites. Thunderstore works well. just download them from there using r2modman or Gale.

[grim seal]

fair enough

[hexed goblet]

maybe one day i will add them to it, but it's not a high priority. I'm more focused on making great mods than i am on maintaining automated systems to deploy across multiple platform APIs.

[grim seal]

a there a tracker with a list of all mods, kinda like how stardew valley has with smappi that shows if any mods are usuable or broken?

[daring basin]

Thunderstore good
Nexus bad

[hearty sphinx]

👆

[grim seal]

ok last questions, Ill get r2modman and install all the mods I need but if theres a couple mods on nexus mods can I still use them with thundermanager/r2modman?

[daring basin]

You can manually install them via r2.

[grim seal]

is there a plugins folder they would just go into like nexus mods? i’m assuming so right

[daring basin]

You install them via your mod manager.
Go into settings and there will be an option there.

[limpid gale]

Yah Nexus is terrible. Thunder is much cleaner and easier to use.

[buoyant pilot]

are there any mods that introduce magic earlier?

wait how is magicrevamp and magicplugin different?

[languid hamlet]

revamp uses and ammo-like system with mob drops for magic, and plugin is more like vanilla style.

[stiff phoenix]

I love Valheim raft but I wish its dev had a discord. I read the github and the modpage but either I dont understand the hull mechanics or something is busted. Like, base boat platform, wheel, tier 2 sail, and rudder, nothing else, yet shipPropulsion is like 0.33333 and ship barely moves. Last year it worked fine.

[grim seal]

I have a question about this log output I got but I cant send the pic, is there anywhere I can send it?

are there any updated autosave mods?

[sonic dew]

Yes, it's called Valheim

[grim seal]

but its not as frequent :(

[hearty sphinx]

Then change the frequency?

[grim seal]

how where

[glossy arrow]

Is there a mod that adds more extensions to workbenches and forges to raise their levels above 5 and 8? I found some that add extensions for Black Forges and Gjall Tables, but not basic workbenches and forges.

[daring basin]

hello anyone know of a mod that helps me level large areas better? for flat ground my pickaxe skills suck i guess ;p

[weary island]

I use InfinityHammer for terrain leveling and stuff. And there's other terrain mods over at thunderstore.io that work well, too. And one or another of them might be easier to use. You should check them out. Just make sure they've been updated recently by their authors.

[daring basin]

Thank you yeah the radius one is nice I'll look into that

[slender kestrel]

I don't know of any, but honestly why would you want that? That by itself wouldn't really change anything, other than .... cluttering up your house with more upgrades around your workbenches ?

[outer saddle]

does anyone know what mod or mods introduce hotkeys to store items form your inventory straight into nearby chests? I remember using one which puts those items in chests that already have those items, though I don't remember the name

I tried AzuAutoStore yesterday but some vanilla items and modded items weren't going into the chests

[slender kestrel]

Been using "Quick_stack_Store_Sort_Trash_Restock" myself, from Goldenrevolver.

I'm currently still running last version of the game so no idea if it's been updated, though r2 is telling me there's an update for it.

[tired crescent]

Entirely depends on your configs.

[outer saddle]

server configs? I'm not the server onwer but I can talk to them

[tired crescent]

If it’s installed on the server. Yes. It will sync from their configs.

Depending on if they have item filters in the yaml, chests must already have the item. Etc

[outer saddle]

thanks! I didn't except to get the answer from the mod creator himself/herself 😂

[tired crescent]

If I see it. I try to answer.

I’m a him

[daring basin]

any mods that add varity to npc's? that can be installed on a current save?

[outer saddle]

if they didn't change any configurations and just download the lastest version, should the AzuAutoStore store all items (including modded) to vanilla chests if the chests have at least 1 copy of said item when they press the hotkey (period)?

by pressing f1 in the game menu I saw that the configuration for storing items when the chests have them is on. If an item isn't being placed into the chests would we have to make a change to the yml file?

I just began reading the #comments on the file so it should probably take a while before I understand how the yml works

[glossy arrow]

I have some.mods loaded that require higher levels of workbench than 5, or forge than 7, to upgrade things but the mods themselves don't come with workbench or forge extensions

[slender kestrel]

Ah interesting, I'd assume if a mod requires higher levels it would supply those. Sorry I don't know of any, you might have success asking the mod creator how they're solving that?

[glossy arrow]

Ooo good idea! I hadn't thought of that. I'll check their discord, thanks for the tip!

[void stag]

Hi, I saw a clip of a mod that puts the camera in first-person mode. How does it work?
If you have a dedicated server, do you have to set it on both the client and the server?

[weary island]

If you have devcommand access you may not need a mod. There's a "freefly" command that might work for you.

[uncut lark]

More World Traders adds like 7 new traders around the world.

VikingNPCs adds new Viking settlements

[pliant jasper]

Doess the order on the thunderstore mod manager matter with Valheim mods?

I know load order can be an issue when modding in other games...

Also does the red text after it shows loading a mod mean that mod threw an error? #mods-screenshots message

[sonic dew]

no

[uncut lark]

Usually yes. In your specific case yes that error is related to the magic eitr base mod

[pliant jasper]

Also seem to have my food vanishing off my cooking station though I dont know what mod could be causing it.

I think it's lazy viking, but Idk where they are going... Not my inventory or and chests...

I fixed it. Just had to move a chest closer to the cookinig stations

[pliant jasper]

@tired crescent Idk if you're okay with being pinged, but Im using the AzuAutoStore, and cant seem to increase the pickup range... Changing the value in the config manager doesnt seem to work.

[tired crescent]

Pickup range for chests? Edit in the yml

[olive musk]

Good Morning all, been about a year since I set mods into Valheim and memory is failing me. Following the instructions to manually install BepInExPack_Valheim to my Dedicated Steam CMD server. Their example picture here https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/denikson/BepInExPack_Valheim/ however indicates that I move the BepInExPack_Valheim into my install but then I need to pull some files out of that folder into the main folder?

Really confused not sure if some instrucntions have changed over time.

Can not put a pic here but this is what I refer to. https://imgur.com/SVi9BFQ

Doorstop for example is in the BepInExPack_Valheim folder right now.

Nevermind it helps when you read for comprehension, missing the one word Content was my issue. LOL

[lofty adder]

Is there any discord for modders?

I was interested in seeing if anybody had ideas for any large mods sort of like overhaul mods or anything. I'm a modeler and am interested in various new content as well as other changes such as new features and rebalance

or potential redesigns & models adjustment/revisions, i guess lots of different stuff

[ebon vault]

You're certainly welcome to chat ideas in here and #programming can be a resource on development.

https://github.com/Valheim-Modding has a Discord listed at the top and is a large community for both design and dev that might be up your alley. It would appear we're forbidden from posting Discord URLs in here

[lofty adder]

Awesome thank you sm

[lofty adder]

@uncut lark since I am very keen on the idea of 'overhaul' mods to a degree, and I see with more world traders you'd be looking to replace the trader models with new ones - I'd be so keen on modeling new weapons, equipment and a variety of assets for some mods.

Can show my work too

Can honestly probably do armor too, I have experience with armor/clothing on various rigs

[uncut lark]

Yea that would be awesome, I have a lot of different projects I could use help 3D modeling on. And would def love to collaborate.

[lofty adder]

1 sec if you dm me i can send some photos of my models, I can texture too just need to get used to the valheim style first. I'm very adaptable

[uncut lark]

Yea sure

[slender kestrel]

That depends entirely upon what you want out of a mod. People generally prefer different things entirely.

But it's MassFarming. Without a doubt! ;)

[sour shard]

Is there a mod to reduce taming time

[slender kestrel]

Honestly never looked for that, I'd just take a look at thunderstore and see what you find. And just check that it has the tag for updates for bog witch update.

[worldly garnet]

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

[fiery condor]

"AdjustTamingSpeed"

[fiery condor]

Also "Ranching" makes it a skill where the time reduces as you level it up.

[bitter marsh]

Is there a mod which either 1) replaces the iron requirement for the padded armors with black metal or 2) creates an identical set of padded armor that uses black metal instead of iron and also changes the visuals to the green-ish black metal color?

[lofty adder]

is there any good mods that disable dropping all items on death?

[ebon vault]

Vanilla Valheim has a DeathKeepEquip global key you can set

[lofty adder]

Where is this???

I understand you can make it so you don't drop the 2 items in offhand/mainhand etc, does what you just mentioned include ALL items tho?

[ebon vault]

Hmm, probably just equipped, sorry

[lofty adder]

sounds good

[light elm]

Good evening everyone. Me and my friend started playing a modded version of valheim that uses a mod called 'Skyheim'. It allows the player to infuse the armour with Eitr but as a result it decreases the armour percentage of the gear piece. We are currently playing in a very hard difficulty and having low armour is kinda proving difficult at some points in the game. Usually most mods have a config file where the values of such stats can be modified using BepInEx but this mod specifically doesn't have a config file. I was wondering if someone has this config file?

[copper copper]

Does anyone know a mod that allows you to make perfect slopes easily? I try to make them with the hoe, and no matter how good it looks, it still leaves parts of the terrain looking weird.

[grim seal]

are there any mods for making the crafting table feel less cluttered? All i know about is the crafting filter mod

[ornate tiger]

how do you disable mods

[grim seal]

you could just move the mod out of the plugin folder, or get the valheim configuration manager and disable it from there.

[tired crescent]

Depends on how they are installed.
Manual: Rename with a .old file extension or move them out of plugins folder.
Mod Manager: Toggle inside the mod manager should allow that.

[sour shard]

any good mod for teleporting ores

[grim seal]

"teleport everything" works

[half igloo]

So is Valheim Plus worth it?

[half igloo]

Try holding shift and move your hoe upward or downward to make it level smoother.

[sonic dew]

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

[worldly garnet]

InfinityHammer has a command that lets you do perfect slopes.

[copper copper]

Does anyone know a mod that allows feeding animals through containers and also lets you filter foods so they aren't used?

[sour shard]

aZUCRAFT is not worknig for me but working for others. It used to work but not anymore. anyone know a solution?

[sonic dew]

Why wouldn't you let them eat food? Or just throw what you want them to eat

[viscid elm]

My friend and I cant connect to each other after patching today, is it a waiting game for an update or do we need to troubleshoot something?

[hearty sphinx]

An update for what? If you both have the new patch then you should be able to connect. Have you updated any mods?

[viscid elm]

We tried a few different things, but nothing worked. Updated Mods, updated game, rolled back updated game, tried different host, verified files. Just yesterday we could connect but after the patch today something broke. Of course this is with mods only.

[lofty adder]

Any mods let you repair with repair hammer without needing a craft bench?

Preferably it has a requirement when it comes to boats to use spare wood the player might have on them

[pliant jasper]

Anyone know of a mod like "Equip Wheel" that letss your access items in a menu quickly? Forr some reason Equip Wheel isnt working for me.

[sour shard]

Does anyone know how long is "Adjusttamingspeed"? normally in vanilla it's 30 minues

[shut latch]

Starting a dedicated server from regular world save. I tried setting the bat file to the same name, but it seems to create a new, and different world, with the same name. It creates a backup of the single player one of the same name. Do the world options have to match in the startup for the dedicated one? This is on the same machine that I have the file save for single player.

[hearty sphinx]

Sounds like the game is looking in the wrong folder for your world saves.

[ebon vault]

The world name of the -world <world name> argument must match the <world name>.db and <world name>.fwl files in your server's <savedir>\worlds_local directory. If you're using a case-sensitive file system, they must match in case. If you copied the worlds to that directory while the server was running, the server's fresh in-memory world will overwrite the copied files on the next save interval or graceful shutdown.

[shut latch]

So I made sure it matched, it doesn't generate anything, starts right up, and it's still different. Can headless from a .bat pull cloud saves or something like that?

[ebon vault]

It can't. Are you running the Dedicated Server on the same PC or VM as the desktop game client?

[shut latch]

same machine
