Hot Diggity DAMN!

Ugh, now you REALLY want me to make boats too

[solar shuttle]

Alright I'm gonna make a better ship mod that doesn't require cash money to put on dedicated servers, but I need feedback on what people are actually looking for in a ship mod because I'm sure as much as I find giant ships with multiple levels fascinating the average valheim player probably just wants slightly modified vanilla ish ships.

So if anyone has any ideas lmk I'll be working on new models this weekend

I've also found a pretty solid fix for the jittery boats when on dedicated servers so that's always good 😎

[nocturne hare]

Slight differences in style: sail colors, figure heads, shields maybe

[mellow talon]

If you need it to shoot homing missiles let me know....

[nocturne hare]

Bf suggested one with a mounted ballista; also, the ability to lower/remove the masts when not in use.

[vestal tree]

Kudos to you if you know what I'm building. Here's a clue:

"A dining room."

[solar shuttle]

Interesting. The ballista not so hard... The mast thing is probably doable but requires a bit more thought

[viral lion]

a better ship mod that doesn't require cash money to put on dedicated servers
its already called longshipUpgrades

[floral tide]

I would replace the doors and trim with something that looks more expensive

[mellow talon]

Going to remake the Ranch for my WildHorses mod.
Current Ranch vs what I want to replace it with after I add clutter, vegetation etc.

Which style do you like the most?

[empty bone]

Created 3 new Poplar trees, 7 new Beech Trees and added multiple little trees + swapped the grass and it feels really good! :feelsgoodenough:

Bakery (I eventually managed to fill the display shelves

[plucky plank]

Lovely little bakery, I like the double oven. Will try that in a new build. Thinking of placing them a little bit higher above the floor, just 1/2 m or max. 1 m on a stone or black marble platform.

[nocturne hare]

Good idea. Gotta keep back ergonomics in mind for the village bakers!

[versed shell]

18 hrs in the swamp and 162 crpyts later, the actual hard part, smelting it all I never wanna go back again

Found the coolest (heh ❄️) Draugr village yesterday! I really want to revitalize it but don't really need a base here...

[junior grail]

does anyone have a fix for this issue? everytime i go back on a portal to my base, the vegeration resets. i dug this flat ground so the vegetation that resets floats

Day 2 of Castle Tempest build progress.

[versed shell]

Ive got 18k stone and a goal for tomorrow

[somber falcon]

that, is truly impressive, you using any build mods? or just vanilla bits?

[topaz oyster]

hmm interesting, My friend decide to visit ashlands before queen's defeat (it defeated yesterday) without me and made ocean outpost, well of course. He have died and caused funny corpose recovery, otherwise it was successful build!

[brittle trout]

It's a bit amusing to be adventuring through monster bug infested minds at the edge of the world... in search of these silly, wooden training weapons XD

[versed shell]

for building, I only have a mod that lets me use resources that are in chests. otherwise manual placement. Ofc I do have epic loot, and a mythical build hammer, so it means no stamina cost. But nothing directly related to building in any other sense

[topaz oyster]

SQUIRREL!!

[brittle trout]

Yes~ my main VR Chat avatar. I've also modden him into Pawperty Damage!

[versed shell]

Day 3 Castle Update. Castle wall finished, added 1 guard tower access (there will be 3 total). and a small farm (2 more plots will be added)

The entire outter wall took roughly 55k stone. Ive removed every big pillar and stone structure in the nearest 4 plains XD

[somber falcon]

The outter wall itself was 55k~ish. Inner castle so far has been 6k. Ive resorted to making a new seed with a massive planes 5min away from spawn. Cause I've completely destoned everything within 30min of my island XD

i bet the paved roads everywhere people would love it if they did this

[mellow talon]

Then it would be like taking the bus/train

[viral lion]

well for walking too, but i meant if it conveyor'd their loot

[mellow talon]

Just added lane support so you can sort your items.

So like

Wood: Left lane
Stone: Center lane
Resin: Right lane

Then there's the "none" option which yeets the item/creature off the conveyor.

Imagine sorting players to different destinations

[wintry forum]

🤨

[green void]

Ngl I think you gotta install some mods

[wintry forum]

the list is so big it extends outside the client, I had to exit out of it because the "ok" button is inaccessible 🤦‍♂️ 😆

[versed shell]

Well you actually could. Cause there are item hoppers you could install with ranged versions. That can be set to specific items!

[mellow talon]

That will transport players?

[pastel epoch]

Trying to use recipe manager to get rid of the description, it seems like it's entered correctly, but it still shows up in-game like this:

[terse flume]

You start a help thread in the mods discord? I see a couple issues with that config as is

You could also check your log, usually warnings or errors in the configuration is shown in there

[pastel epoch]

Are you referring to the "valheim mods" discord or a discord for the recipe manager mod?

[pastel epoch]

Just curious what errors you're seeing in the config, bc I definitely had it working for the dvergr stakewall the other day, even though it isn't now.

[versed shell]

No. I mean specifically for items

[pastel epoch]

Stakewall recipe config is working again- I deleted all the lines for the missingpieces changes.

[terse flume]

Usually that kind of thing means there is an error loading the configuration, my guess would be the EnablePiece you have there isn't a thing- but your log would say so.

I was referencing asking in the linked discord for the mod

I think I got it!

Longship Upgrades by shundal

[grave maple]

I built a Star Wars–inspired Valheim map based on the original Star Wars trilogy, transforming Valheim into a fully playable Star Wars–themed world.
If you want to see the movie I made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PH-F_N1jZLY

[mellow talon]

What the actual, this needs to be preserved...

For example if you want to go a step further and make pieces interactive, driveable, missiles, you name it or actual timelapse tools etc.
Either way, everything on that map should be saved and preserved into prefabs imo.

[grave maple]

you can grab the blueprints on my discord or Valheimians, links in video description 😛

[mellow talon]

Oh that's great they're made into blueprints!
Have you seen Shawesomes vehicle stuff I made for him?
Batmobile, motorcycle, hover car, flying fighter jet, tank etc.

[empty bone]

Dope! Very nice 👌🏾

[grave maple]

Yes, he already included my X-wing

[mellow talon]

Oh right, did you like that it was turned into an actual vehicle with missiles etc?

[grave maple]

Its awesome

[somber falcon]

i absolutely hate these things,

[versed shell]

And its even worse. Cause I got star leveling system. So they are the size of vanilla Lox's XD

[somber falcon]

oh, creature and loot control? i tried that, enemies kept dropping blue epic loot items

[mellow talon]

That's Epic Loot though, not CLLC

[somber falcon]

i just see allot of people use cllc with it, kill high level mobs, get allot of magic or epic level items, whenever i use cllc i keep getting low tier items.

are there specific settings or anything?

[mellow talon]

It's not CLLC, it's Epic Loot.

[grave maple]

I personally enjoy Jewelrycrafting more then Epic loot, its not so owerpowered

[versed shell]

No no no, star leveling system. Basically the further from the center of the world, the stronger enemies get. Ashlands/border areas have a minimum spawn of 8 star

[shell bramble]

This is absolutely incredible I can't wait to check it out. I may have missed it in the post but is there a list of mod dependencies to run this?

[grave maple]

Thank you, no you dont need any mods, but the VikingsOldRepublic is fun as I used it in the video

[naive nacelle]

Is that a mod for auto pickup distance?

[versed shell]

Epic loot has an effect that increases it

[naive nacelle]

I have epic loot, is that a config setting or intrinsic to the mod?

[somber falcon]

[viral lion]

can you post the cfg?

default configs
strange, i thought my config for yours was default... it may be really old though; my configs are all drawn from a master folder of every mod ive ever used, and its been a while since i used yours

[versed shell]

Sry I havent posted an update, been resource gathering so no major changes have happened yet. (ash wood is pain when every enemy takes 5min to kill XD. (that and the snail [gaijin] has claimed my soul)

[atomic depot]

Looks good ! 👍 any way to have the section topics left justified instead of centered ? It would make the arrow all be on the same vertical line and look cleaner.

[drowsy tree]

Can just remove the arrows if that’s the issue. But no, the sections should remain centered to not confuse them with settings if you happen to make them similar colors. It’s that way in all config managers.

[versed shell]

changes made are shown here (nothing much exterior wise. Interior walls are grausten, and I did some renovations. I need lighting ikkkk)

[viral lion]

i loaded up a test profile and started this, but forgot to start a new world, so although it finished doing whatever it was doing to the map and dropped me into it i never actually looked around for any roads. I then made a new random seed map, and waited... a lot.... it never left the loadscreen.
There's no dependencies...right?

[lapis shadow]

Jotunn is a dependency. It will take a very long time to generate the roads. You should watch the bepinex log for progress.

[viral lion]

yep, jotunn.... it took a very long time and then switched to ingame sounds and a black screen - i'll try agqain later

Hi @ebon dome I just managed to enter your map, and exactly to the city of blue hills after setting in Render Limits - loaded area to 2 with 70k objects I had 20-30fps it's enough to be able to delve into the secrets of the city 🫣

Settings I have on the highest Valheim and I have Ryzen 7 3700X, 32GB DDR4, 3060 RTX 12 GB

I'm impressed by the number of details on the buildings and I'm sure I'll still check what I don't know yet about the mechanics of the game during construction.

I NEED this

[mellow talon]

So this is from a mod called IBelieveICanFly that I made for Yggdrah.
The current version of that mod does not include this more advanced flying hence me wanting to make my own version.
Yggdrah is incredible for making a vision, an experience but I'm more of letting the player play how they want with tons of configs.

There will be another mod as well that he might release that I might make my own version mod called SkyShips.
I want to use my own assets and my own plan is to allow the player to actually build on the ship itself and other things.

Just like with his DragonRiders and my creature mods.
He's a visionaire, making experiences based on his own goals I'm more making the ability for people to customize their experience to the max.

[night basalt]

apparently sharks DO know how to sail

[mellow talon]

Decided to completely change how I deal with fleeing and attacks for my creatures.
Right now players can enable or disable attacks and by default creatures don't have attacks.
Some mods overrides this making my creatures get their attacks enabled making them spawn camp.

Now my creatures will be like Dvergers, they will leave you alone if you leave them alone.
If you attack them however, they will start attacking and chasing you but you can easily calm them down.

The first way is to simply run away and when they reach their max distance they give up and return home.
The second way is to drop one of their taming foods which they will consume immediately and calm down.

This fixed the issue of other mods overriding my mods settings and attacks can now be on at all times.
As long as the player don't harass the creatures, they will no longer spawn camp and both can co-exist.

@viral lion The mod improves FPS by hiding objects that are outside the camera’s field of view.
Anything the player cannot currently see is not rendered until it comes back into view.
The Objects still exist, but are disabled in the current loaded area

[viral lion]

i wonder if any of the TS ones do that? they always seem to be just accessing moistly vanilla controls

[west pendant]

I mean that one is on TS https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/K_xD/ValheimFPSOptimizer/

[empty bone]

In Unity6 is the Occlusion culling option. maybe they will add that in the future, that would be super nice. By default we have now View frustum culling, which is always on. Which means that any renderer outside the camera view is not drawn

[west pendant]

@broken haven you mean like this right? with the skill name showing the number? this is fine, it's the ID for that skill is all.

[solar shuttle]

Why not just runtime swap the hash with your actual skill name?

Or am I reading it wrong and the skill IS shields and that's the id I'm an idiot

[west pendant]

To be honest 😄
I dont know why it does that, maybe something Azu or Blaxxun can change how it's logged in the config file because it's part of SkillManager, but I rarely see anyone asking about skill_(string) because skill mods usually only do one thing so it's not really an issue - just a weird thing.
(the skill_1208107160 is "Blacksmithing" but appears as a number id)

[solar shuttle]

Ahhh interesting, yeah I know when I was messing with skills I wasn't using skill manager and it was a huge pain at first to correctly re direct to the skill name because enums suck to work with

[drowsy tree]

Mostly because localization isn’t ready at the time of config generation.

And if you call it early, that creates the entire bug that many mods are having now.

[solar shuttle]

Well that makes perfect sense to me

Yeah and you can pickup any creature.
By default you can only pickup tamed but there's a config to pickup babies, untamed, monsters.
As well as a config to be able to throw them and related configs for power multiplier and all that.

[solar shuttle]

Feature requests? So far they have about 15 different idle behaviors they can perform while set to stay in an area. Depending on what's around to interact with they can gather resources, tend to kilns and smelters, fill fires and torches with fuel, repair their own gear randomly on workbench interaction (they use all the proper info from an item drop script just as players would so armor and weapon bonuses are applied)

They can eat food and gain the buffs from that, they can organize your chests and auto pickup/deposit items from the ground ..

They gain skill levels and apply bonuses correctly, they have attributes and levels (level 1-100) attributes can add bonuses to carry capacity damage speed intelligence (more base eitr) etc etc...

[night basalt]

i think itd be cool if they could specifically drop food items on the ground for tames so you could automate tame feeding

At this point I'm thinking I'm just gonna teach them to play the entire game and I'll let them backpack me

But yeah they have little speech bubbles when working and when doing other actions. A ton of different phrases... Some a little unhinged because of the way I parse them based off targets lol

It'll be like "going to collect the kiln" and I'm like well shit something else to filter out of the dynamic speech logic... Had to parse any target with tree in the name as just "wood" so they would stop saying "going to chop some beech tree" 😅 ai behavior is both intriguing and infuriating to try to get to feel right, but it's really fun so far and I have a buncha stupid plans that I'm sure won't work but damnit I'ma try

[willow geyser]

keep going bro! great work!! i will deff be using this mod holy crap!

[solar shuttle]

sheeesh thats incredibly cool to hear. i love the stuff you make haha. currently trying to teach them the nuances of stamina management and boy its beginning to be a pita with all the different movement/combat/state controllers having to work together and toggle eachother on and off at the right time

theyre all go.... no chill and will just depleate their stamina and stare the enemy in the face the whole time lol

[night basalt]

i think thats enough valheim for one day

[solar shuttle]

i guess i should go for a more circular kiting retreat when low on stamina instead but this is kinda hilarious.... lil dude ran all the way to force teleport limits and then took off running again XD "see ya boss you're on your own for a bit"

[night basalt]

that was me when i saw the seeker soldier

[solar shuttle]

I'm thinking we give it call of duty zombies style avoiding tactics.... Run them in circles until stamina regens... Companions get to cheat a little....movement itself doesn't cost stamina

[empty bone]

A percentage probability that the AI ​​will go sleep if a bed is nearby (during the night)Commandable behavior? Patrols with buildable patrol points (flags?). Watch/guard command - would be cool for raids (base protection)

[empty bone]

Example screenshot - patrolling guards, which follows your own/custom placed path/flags and guarding npcs. I made them 10 months ago, but never really finished all the behaviours as you did. Just an idea

[solar shuttle]

Oh that's nice, I like the way you made the checkpoints visible for easy placement that's smart. Currently they do have patrol/guarding behavior but it's randomized not set to a path, so that's a great idea

[empty bone]

Yeah, its really nice and you can increase the raids and it feels a bit like tower defense! We having custom raids, with custom mobs and there is always 1 raid commander, which will drop raid tokens and with that one you are able to buy more npcs. Is that already available or still WIP ?

[solar shuttle]

Still very much a work in progress. Constantly finding new things I want to add to them or behaviours that need tweaking... Originally started as me wanting to remake marketplace... But then I decided I wanted to add companions as well as static NPCs and it's just grown from there

[empty bone]

If you need some help or prefabs, let me know. I can even showcase, how the npcs works on our end atm @solar shuttle

[solar shuttle]

Definitely! I always enjoy speaking with other modders and seeing how they handle certain situations. I appreciate the offer... At the moment I'm more or less just constantly testing and adjusting the AI. I'm assuming you went the same route and bypassed monster AI all together?

[empty bone]

We rewrote all the monster/humanoid scripts and using our customs in the end

[solar shuttle]

Yeah that's the best way to go about it... I tried working with them at first but ultimately having your own behavior controller is the cleanest way

[empty bone]

Exactly, we also edit it for animals and made a sleep behavior in there. Send you message, lets keep in touch

[solar shuttle]

For sure. I'm at work at the moment but I'll check later. I also know we have a time zone difference. I'm on the east coast of the US

I'm looking for options to improve Valheim's graphics. I was using Willybach's HD Valheim Textures 1.0, Badger's Valheim HD Terrain, and Badgers Valheim Skies. But they are old. So what kinda of alternatives are there?

[solar shuttle]

It's a long one... But proud of this Saturday side project... Can now place clutter grass in dungeons or have planters... Prefab look obviously needs to change but considering I did this in a couple hours I like it

[solar shuttle]

still likely your best options..... toss badgers shaders in there too

[mellow talon]

I have a portal mod called PortalPlane with portals that don't have frames.
The whole idea was to have frameless portals with cool effects people can incorporate into builds.
Since they're effects they don't show up when you're in placement mode which was a complaint people had.
No longer, now they will play when you're in placement mode and can accurate place them to build even better!

[solar shuttle]

Portal planes is sick... Wish I used portals on our server haha

[night basalt]

is this a placeable boulder mod

[mellow talon]

Next update is going to add what I will call "Living Portals" 😎

[solar shuttle]

what do you mean?

oh i think i get it... its placable terrain yes

Took a fair bit of tomfoolery and shinaniganizing to make it work... Had to make an entirely new heightmap/terrain controller to handle my stuff so it didn't mess with vanilla

[rancid glade]

[knotty vault]

Love what you got here!

[solar shuttle]

Thank you. Still a work in progress. I still have some things to clean up and work out.... But being able to place custom terrain will make for some really cool builds... Also made scalable env boxes last night that are pretty cool....can make a dungeon box as small as a room or as large as a couple zones

[mellow talon]

You're making one hell of a monster mod!

[solar shuttle]

She's a chonker... People thought marketplace was big... I've tripped it and I'm not even close to done lol

[grizzled drum]

a quick look into my small side porject. making all armors and weapons into build pieces. still need some small lifts here and there maybe some exceptions. but the feeling of being able to just put stuff on shelfs feels nice 😄 the mod follows few simple rules and generate those mostly for all items usable by the player. i still do catch few monster items but this gonna get fixed - yes it works with mods as long as this gets loaded after (as i plan to setup )

[knotty vault]

Love this!

[mellow talon]

Why turn them into buildpieces?
You can make them as placeable items and still keep them as items :D

[grizzled drum]

pretty much done . all weapons and armors including modded can be now made into placable items just like food in serving tray. i also added small method that let you rotate them in X and Z axis by 45 degree each time you press left CTRL(X axis) left ALT ( Z axis) so you can place them on walls and celling if needed . the are not destructible per say you would need to pick them up.

[grizzled drum]

testing sticking things to walls rocks and other build pieces 😄 seems some of items use mesh collider and dont have read access so need to find those exceptions still. but as much as i see some mod may generate such errors as items don't really need read/write access to mesh.

yeah, i think its sick that theres gonna be a buncha new options to add life to valheim, but that is my version. its part of a much larger mod tho, so im happy to see you doing basically the same concept as a stand alone. i think a lot of people will love the idea of companions.... i went about making my own take on marketplace so companions are just a module of a much larger project in that

lil peeksky at the ui and some of the archtypes, stat tracking etc

[knotty vault]

That parts top secret 😋
Just letting people figure that out when I push the update

[solar shuttle]

for the record.... death tracking doesnt persist yet XD they do not all actually have perfect k/d

[knotty vault]

Wow, holy UI, well done!

Persistency is a fun one, is it isolated to dedicated or just private world testing the death persistency so far?

[solar shuttle]

Dedicated server testing. It's supposed to function as basically a marketplace replacement and a server owner's dev kit all together as a mod, companions are just a small part of it, so everything gets tested on a dedicated server.. I know WHY they're not persisting, it's because of a timing issue with my tombstone patch for them, but I just haven't fixed it yet 😅 like a true gamer kill tracking was more important to nail down first...

But yeah they actually create tombstones on death and loot them when they respawn 🤣 can't wait to do a playthrough with these guys

[knotty vault]

Sounds about right, excited to see where you land this!

[solar shuttle]

Did a couple fun things with the marketplace side of things too... Made it so that all quests, dialogues,territories, etc can be written by admins in game with a UI and the cfgs can be pushed directly to the server without ftp access... Made it parse all the marketplace configs because I'm lazy and already had a bunch of quests and territories written so I just drag and drop them directly into my cfg folders.. added a couple new flags to territories... Made companions have the ability to also be quest NPCs, traders, etc so you can have wandering NPCs... Tons of fun stuff.... It's been a ton of work but super fun to play with

And before anyone says anything I asked kg if I could butcher his mod before I started and I actually re wrote all the code I didn't just snag it from his repo 😎

So I may have taken the idea and ran with it. But at least I made my own code for it all 🤣

[solar shuttle]

Yeah he's excited

[mighty fjord]

this is practically unpaid labor

edit: farmer companion plants better than i do .-.

[solar shuttle]

What happens if the cultivated area isn't square? How do they determine the grid coordinates?

[gleaming pollen]

I would guess based on player angle and player look direction indicated on minimap that the dude is relying on global cardinal directions. He's planting north to south, likely checking for collisions within growth radius along the way. So detect cultivated ground, begin at or near its border, begin planting from the outside in for any appropriate spot and adding a row when cultivated ground edge or obstacle is reached.

[solar shuttle]

Ahh there is really nobody better to ask planting advice from huh? Haha forgot about plant everything 🤣

[gleaming pollen]

i guess i should have showed the grotto under there too.... first clip doesnt really show that the whole thing is floating huh

[mighty fjord]

Is this your npc server mod I can't tell what's going on either

[mellow talon]

I'm gonna make my own companion mod too, then there can be 3 people spamming this channel trying to outdo the other.

[solar shuttle]

Yeah it's part of RPG-Maker... I had taken a break from the companion module for a bit to work out custom terrain, but couldn't let you have all the spotlight... They basically just slaughter eik because they're all around level 30 and have unlocked their sub classes but yeah they have roughly 80 different combinations of archetypes they can level up each with their own unique passives and abilities... They choose group roles dynamically and based off the equipment you give them, so you'll usually get at least 1 tank and 1 ranger if you have a sword and shield on one and a bow on the other.... At level 25 they choose a sub class and can hybrid, changing their passives and abilities... Overall I made about 130 new status effects and passive skills... New world style class selection so you can swap one from a bow to a sword and shield and level up a different archtype independently... 100 levels with attribute points to allot for each level, luck system so that the difference between a good luck and bad luck companion is about 25% damage and skill effectiveness by level 100 basically endless combinations of playability 😎

[mighty fjord]

I'm not trying to flex or anything on @solar shuttle we both friends here 😂 🙂 I hope at least 😄🤣

[empty bone]

makes me wonder, if they will work with custom weps, armors, capes etc

[solar shuttle]

They pull from the whole modded pool so yeah .. and properly use the weapons item drop script for stats/bonuses/and secondary attacks...

I have them spawning with my modded capes and weapons from my other mods

PortalPlane has gotten a ton of features lately so it's no longer a boring portal mod!
All from various restrictions, portaling with tames, fuel, white/blacklist and so much more.

The first is an IMAGE mode (optimized).
This takes a bunch of snapshots in a panorama showing you what's on the other side.
Each time the portals reconnect aka when you go away and come back it takes fresh snapshots.

The second is LIVE mode (unpotimized).
This shows a live feed on what's on the other side!

Extremely happy with the results.
In the configs you can define resolution, angle, snapshot count etc...

This latest feature was done by the best modder/coder KG

Just a little fast travel concept

[mellow talon]

That could actually be cool for no portal playthroughs?

[mighty fjord]

That's what im thinking, and I'm working on a system to speed up in game time so it's not just free, like the farther you go the more time passes

edit; during testing valkyrie flew into a tree and i died instantly

Another small mod i'm working on, an overhaul for the strength belt, grants an additonal inventory row that also acts as a swappable hotbar via alt, thought it would make sense to add more inventory space instead of just increasing the weight capacity

[mellow talon]

What do you mean about time?
Nice, I will always avoid vanilla UI stuff because you have to support all the 100 other UI mods lol...

[mighty fjord]

The idea is that when a player fast travels, the game should advance time gradually based on how far they travel. Instead of teleporting instantly with no time passing, the world clock moves forward as if the character actually spent time making the journey.

For example, if a player has a rested buff with eight minutes remaining and decides to fast travel a long distance during the middle of the day, the game would simulate time passing during that travel. When the player arrives, the world time would be later and the rested buff would have less time remaining, reflecting the time that passed during the trip. This makes fast travel feel more consistent with the passage of time in the world rather than acting like an instant teleport with no consequences.

chatgpt to make it make sense cuz i don't make sense :3

[mellow talon]

Aha. Yeah why not

[solar shuttle]

i think profs theory is support no mods lmfao

[mighty fjord]

wip... tool kinda doesnt work the way i intended... mesh redraw is a lil laggy... but ill work that out

[solar shuttle]

ahhh im just kidding were all having fun here, thats a neat mod, can you explain to me in great detail like im 5 how this works? what did you have to patch to use the valkyrie like that? in your own words tho, i dont want the ai summary

[mighty fjord]

Once again pasted in chatgpt to make this make sense, as we know I don't make sense :3

"We grab the game's Valkyrie model, strip out all its original scripts so it's just a visual puppet, then fly it to the player, stick the player on its back with a sitting animation, and fly it across the map to whichever runestone pin you clicked. When you land, we fast-forward your food and buff timers based on how long walking would've taken, give you a few seconds of damage immunity, and the Valkyrie flies away. If the Companions mod is installed, we grab your nearby companions too, freeze them in place behind you for the ride, and drop them off with you."

[gleaming pollen]

Please use AI responsibly. Let it generate slop if you must, but constantly challenge it, use it to learn and develop your skills, then push back on the solutions it offers, because most of them are wrong and misguided.

[mellow talon]

The concept is great, reminds me of WoW and this is perfect for no portal playthrough.

[mighty fjord]

Thank you, it took me only a few hours of work, most of that was realizing I had to stop using the existing valkyrie and just clone it's assets recreate it, without doing that it was very buggy 😭

[gleaming pollen]

Talking to both of you because I'm sensing a lot of passive aggressive hostility. My understanding is that you're both using AI assistance, and contrary to the current popular mindset, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I've been chatting with a few models recently, and while they all claim they don't track identity of who is using them, they can outright tell you that they speak with a lot of Valheim modders and will even spill the beans on what types of features they help with most.

[mighty fjord]

Oops I wasn’t trying to come off hostile at all. If it sounded that way that wasn’t my intention. I’m autistic and I don’t always read social cues or tone very well, so a lot of what I say is meant in a joking or lighthearted way. Nothing I said was meant to be taken seriously. I was just messing around and having fun with @solar shuttle

It might have sounded like I was trying to challenge you or act like I was better or something, but that wasn’t it at all. I was just posting some cool videos I took because I thought we were having a funny little back and forth contest going on. Nothing serious, just having fun with it.

Also just to be transparent I use Claude AI openly for a lot of my commits and bug fixes. About 20% of it is honest vibe coding. I’m pretty open about it because it honestly just makes development a lot faster overall.

FYI your AI generated mod descriptions need some proofreading.

Looks like you could use some custom terrain 😉

[acoustic basin]

LOL That's why I put up the guard rails. 😄

I posted those 2 screenshots to show some friends what's possible. They took me a day and a half in game to create that.

I just copied in the buildings from other of my servers after setting up the platforms and walkways. The walkways are wide enough for carts, by the way.

The whole idea was to just show a simple, quick example of what could be done by following along this sky builds path. Possibilities are endless here.

[acoustic basin]

Yeah, terrain was never my strong suit... 😛

looks awesome up at the world tree tho. if you find the right spots you can make some really cool builds... other spots get a little wonky as you get close haha

If Impactful skills used your defined Plant Easily layout, but scaled the number by your skill level (when enabled) would that be preferred for any of you in this situation?

[quiet egret]

being uncertain of the number of what exactly will be scaled (I presume, planted crops per the amount of seeds?), this would've been better indeed
It's the only function of ImpactfulSkills I am not using, exclusively due to the overlapping layouts with PlantEasily
tysm for everything else in it, surely

[terse flume]

Excellent, yes that would be the most likely thing to be scaled. I'll work with Advize for that 👍

[iron rivet]

is there a way to make the spellbook from magic revamp and megingjord work together? i cant seem to have both equipt

[pure thicket]

issue i was having is when the multi plant feature kicked in was it was not on the same grid as plant easily , it was starting about 3 spaces to the right and sometimes 2 spaces forward from PE grid and at a random angle sometimes it would be at same start point but at 90* off and i would have to unequip and re-equip cultivator to get ghost plants to be visible on top of it double planting first plant

[terse flume]

That makes sense since both grids are not designed to be active at the same time

[pure thicket]

the 5 minute time out per message makes it hard to have a conversation now!

[iron rivet]

do magic staves even do anything in magic revamp/magic plugin? They have these stats but you cant use them to melee and the "use eitr" doesnt seem to do anything either. Im i missing something outside of using them to cast spells?

[viral lion]

[solar shuttle]

Why's it look like I'm taking radiation damage

[willow geyser]

hah! that's cool! just need a cooler floating animation than the vanilla fall anim super sick idea!

[dapper mesa]

still haven't worked out how to add custom animations yet, but definitely will be adding as soon as I do 🙂

[mellow talon]

There's a few ways to replace animations but all are simple.
You can override animations in the original controller or outright replace the controller with a custom one.
I like replacing the controller as it gives you 100% control.

[flat pivot]

so i have a mod installed thats lets me have more starred creatures. Is there any conditions that have to be met for the wolf farm to work?

[viral lion]

assuming CLLC: afaik stars add +10% to scale for each star, so do the math + build accordingly
also i micro-cut myself on your screen sharpening

but do yourself a favor; use petPantry

[warm oriole]

Coziest spot in the base.

[willow geyser]

@dull spindle im putting this in here coz its technically modded but here are some of my recent builds (the bridge is my favourite in-game screenshot i've ever taken)

[dull spindle]

oooh, I love how you did those crenellations, the roofs have a bit too many beams imo but looks very nice!
Im gonna add the seasons mod to my server cuz that looks amazing

[paper patio]

yeah Seasonality is one of my all time fav mods, its so immersive, and you can customise weather and growth time (e.g., crops grow faster in spring and slower in winter, always cold status in winter etc)

[warm oriole]

That castle of yours is so good! Been holding off on my castle build looking for some good inspo and yours is just what I needed. Really cool, and I totally get you on the bridge, thats a great screenshot.

[left rose]

tried building a small Chinese temple.

[solar shuttle]

Guess I should spawn the preview prefabs with static physics off 😆 still a very rough wip but mini unity editor in the game 🤔🧐🙂

May or may not also include some rough runtime UI editing tools... Can capture and re position basically any UI elements... But that's also a rough wip

[mellow talon]

Basically replaces a bunch of mods + Unity Explorer.
Being able to edit and make UIs right in game and then it exports it as UI code?

People are not ready.

[solar shuttle]

Lol well I wouldn't quite say replaces. If you're really good with unity UI it's still probably faster than this, but if you're like me and tired of spending hours making a UI that looks beautiful in unity only to have to look like crap in game it might be useful 😆

[mellow talon]

It's revolutionary

[solar shuttle]

Haha well thank you 🙂

[glacial elk]

Willybach's finally works

[flat pivot]

So i am running a server and i have the mod in the Bepinex folder which means i cant change the +10% scale to 0 ingame. Is there any way around that like can i change that in the files somehow?
Also what do you mean by micro cut yourself on my screen sharpening? ;D

[solar shuttle]

Still a work in progress.. but damn this is getting good... Don't mind the screen flicker my crappy capture doesn't have the same refresh as my monitor

[solar shuttle]

Currently has 4 different save functions...

Can edit a single prefab and save it to your Hammer for easy placement later

Can override data for all prefabs of that name

Can clone and save the prefab as a new prefab all together

Can edit all vanilla field data for the prefab and save it to the data yaml for expand world to use

[terse flume]

Thats pretty heckin sweet

[solar shuttle]

[nocturne hare]

Landscaping and clutter. It will feel more alive if it looks lived in. Barrels, carts, etc. As well as bushes annd grass to make it look like it's been there a while

[fiery ibex]

The balcony in my recently completed home, featuring the quality 4 fish I caught 😎

[solar shuttle]

Quick one... Made a mod for some content creator friends... They just wanted to be able to lock camera rotation while seated so they could do podcasts while moving their heads independently of the camera but of course I wasn't gonna just stop there... So

Orbital cam, free cam, camera pathing

(this one's my favorite. You can start recording, run, and move your camera however you want. Stop recording and when you hit the playback button it spawns a camera that goes over your movements for you...)

So basically for producing introductions etc.. just wish clutter spawned further from the player lol the path looks funny with no grass

UI can be hidden as well with a quick keybind but I had it on for the quick clip

[solar shuttle]

One of these days I'll get around to actually publishing some of the mods that I show off here😆

I think I'm just going to finish them all and publish like a dozen at a time. And really irritate everyone over at TS

[mellow talon]

Reminds me of the Timelapse mod I made that I forgot about!

[solar shuttle]

Similar... Mine doesn't save anything anywhere, it's just realtime camera tricks so you still have to clip yourself

[iron rivet]

Do i go for black marble towers or stick with stone?

[flat pivot]

is there any way i can change the size increase per star level to 0 in the files of this mod? I cant find anything...

[cyan sundial]

if you go into BepInEx\config\org.bepinex.plugins.creaturelevelcontrol.cfg you should be able to change the value for Creature size increase per star (percentage) to 0

[iron rivet]

bridge designing is rough, idk if i want more wood or less

[iron rivet]

idk why but i really dislike large areas of bare stone

forgot to cull the herd lmao

[flat pivot]

thank you, i found it. I tried changing the size increase value from 10 to 0 but it can only be at 01. Means that every star level adds that certain 01. Is there a way to make it so that it can only increase to the size of 2 stars? Because i got it set to 4 stars which mean the creatures get bigger than in the vanilla game...

need 4 more prefabs!!!!!!!! these 3 look crazy cool so far!!!

[wraith bough]

made a valheim mod launcher for mac
doesn't require steam running for the game to work anymore

easy access to folders, mod logs, and manage ur mods the way you want

[vapid wolf]

I dont know how it works on mac but not running through steam on windows and linux can cause bepinex to break

[wraith bough]

that's not rly the case because the OS runs bepinex before ever having steam to start

on windows linux and mac there's a bit of a misconception as you typically wire bepinex to steam launch option
but if you instead ran bepinex directly it would load the mods the same way i did

so obv if you have bepinex on launch option it also would break on mac and any other OS as it's hooked to steam

[vapid wolf]

no the issue im talking about that happens mostly on windows but afaik sometimes on linux is that when you launch the game directly it might not load the steamworks libraries and then the game relaunches itself through steam to make them load. bepinex does not load when the game restarts because unitydoorstop has a safeguard from injecting bepinex into subprocesses started by the game

[willow geyser]

new ice sword in the works coming out niiiiiice XD

[solar shuttle]

Your assets are always so sexy

[coarse trench]

I see a lot of his stuff and i like the way it looks, but for me it looks a little too fantastical for Valheim

[solar shuttle]

Ahhh I could see that. After 4k hours I tend to see valheim as a beautiful sandbox these days more than anything.

I respect vanilla and the vision, but also when using mods I'm not too worried about sticking true to the valheim feel.

That being said some playthroughs I do more on the vanilla side and choose mods that compliment that nicely... Other times I just wanna do fun obnoxious things that aren't normally allowed on the game 😅

If it weren't for mods and the freedom they bring to this beautiful sandbox I'm not sure id have nearly the playtime I do lol

[willow geyser]

thanks man!! I use a lot of the vanilla assets the devs made and so true after a couple hundred hours playing the game vanilla style, I Def wanted to add that extra layer of end game god tier magical stuff which I figure should indeed be fantastical and a little over the top. with divine armaments mod you ascend from mortal to god. feels so good to aura farm in asgardian gear XD

[coarse trench]

Im not trying to discredit any of your work btw, it all looks great.

That model for the dragon in the vamp mod looks freaking sick

Will make a test thread for it on my Discord.
I want to add cool bubble effects and stuff.

Suggestions?
Let me know.

[night basalt]

Suggestion: add a way in the mod to remove water damaging structures so you can build an underwater base

[mellow talon]

Another user on my Discord wanted me to allow you to create a bubble underwater to simulate an underwater village.
So when you're in this bubble, you can freely build etc like the water didn't exist but you're still under the water.
Slightly different from what I showed but still fits the concept of the mod I guess.
So you can equip an item to be able to just walk and run into the water.

Is that what you want too?

[willow geyser]

no errors 😄 just a crapy recording software lol

[dark summit]

Suggestion: just like the water at the end of the world falling off, the water could be falling down the sides of the “pushed aside water” instead of it just hanging out there. However with the idea of the sea rising and falling, that might get super complicated on how it attaches and traces.

[crisp sky]

someone take unity away from me 😭

[willow geyser]

I see no issues here, great custom cape textures! just make it possible for people to upload their own pics to be on the capes somehow would be a really neat idea

[dark summit]

Is anyone else thinking that with containers mod that makes them pickup materials, a train that goes from goods start to full crafting end is getting closer….

[grizzled drum]

you are not mistaken this mod offers special type of track for unloading and loading items into the train 🙂 you also can connect it with sensor and signal emitter to do even mroe crayz stuff 😄

[dark summit]

I mean, nooooo one is gonna now have tracks in BF taking copper back to base etc…. 😁

[grizzled drum]

Here ya go a lil presentation of all the build pieces added in my Rune Rails mod 🙂 3 type of wagons , 1 building station , 2 sensors , 3 types of signal recivers , And a whole bunch of tracks 😄

[dark summit]

This may change the whole scape of build videos of bases where they have moving parts.
Like Valheim raft, is the mine cart “customisable” ?

[grizzled drum]

nope mine carts are non customizable there are 3 type of carts : power cart , cargo cart, crafting table cart and that's it . power cart needs to be leading one if power cart build in middle of train it turns into passenger cart engine swaps for small container and thats pretty much it you don't build on them like you do with raft etc this was made as new form of locomotion/logistics tool other then we have right now with normal pull cart or ships or a portal. i love trains and i always loved using those in minecraft or satisfactory so i tried my best to rebuild that system 🙂

[dark summit]

I applaud you on your efforts.

[grizzled drum]

it took me over 200 hours to make this mod and all this possible. sure its not perfect , there probably is a bunch of bugs still and i do have some pieces to make. but i am very proud of this one and i hope enough people hear and see it and they all be having fun making those trains around valheim 🙂 with this and some upcoming additions people be able to build all kinds of things. Can't wait to see eople showing here screenshots of crazy rollercoster they build or whole public transportation systems around world map 😄

[willow geyser]

how many people can sit in 1 cart?

[grizzled drum]

1 person per cart. either last cart or first cart decided the movement, there is barley space for 1 person as those take bit less then 2x2 space. so it might be hard to make like 2 player cart at best as a variant

[solar shuttle]

peep the instance count

[magic garnet]

amazing!

[solar shuttle]

forgive the bit of lag, i have my debugger running counting every per frame op so it adds a little draw... think im getting this working pretty okay? 🤷‍♂️

[mellow talon]

Now when you view through a Palantir, there will be an "eye" and SFX playing.

[grizzled drum]

Added a 2 person transport cart and some there suggestions made by people more to come soon 🙂 I need to find a way to make building carts on rails easier right now it only works if you use a cart item on the track directly

[willow geyser]

nice! I'm sure this will push someone to make like a big train system. ohhhh I have a suggestion! a tunnel track build piece!!!! so people can make it seem somewhat like the tracks can tunnel into a mountain side or something

or I guess people can place large rocks and other terrain pieces around the tracks

[grizzled drum]

exactly i don't want to make environment pieces i just want to give people as many different tracks as i can so they can build what they want. i still have few more receivers to make and few more track types 🙂 so there is definitely space to improve. right now working on function so you can actually build the cart on the rails and it gonna connect instead of using 1-8 to spawn it on track as it seems most confusing. other is adding receiver signal to switch track so they can be turned on by signals remotely not just remote by leading cart with driver or manual.

[solar shuttle]

😎 runtime blueprint combination is here boys... what a time to be alive

[willow geyser]

so game reads all your blueprints on start then you can just build em instantly like any other build piece? amazing

[solar shuttle]

lol i dont think i did a proper job explaining whats actually going on here

yes. i can read all your blueprints and place them as a blueprint.. thats pretty cool

whats really cool is i can take that blueprint, convert it into a single prefab, strip all unwanted components, bake the mesh on a 36 million triangle object AND create its own asset bundle and manifest thats saved into the cfgs to be properly loaded on next launch as a real injected new prefab

that can also be synced to all other clients properly

basically all the work that i used to have to do in unity with blueprint to prefab and then stripping components baking meshes and bundling into its own mod can now be done in ~ 2 min by anyone with the mod installed

so what youre seeing is Dhakhars phalanx getting turned into a single placeable game object in real time.... your gpu will still hate you. but ive stripped away a SIGNIFICANT portion of the per frame ops on the object and roughly doubled the fps thats usually seen when near that thing... (not that going from 10-20fps is a lot, but this is as extreme a case as you could try it on i think)

got networking to the point where its no longer a bottneck then turned my sights on cpu being the next bottleneck around these big builds, significantly lighted the load there as well.. not much i can do for vram usage around a mesh with 36mill triangles tho XD

im sure hd textures probably didnt help the situation but damn is it sexy

[solar shuttle]

psyche im the greatest to ever live

[dark summit]

I’m amazed this has been built. Must have taken so long 😳

[solar shuttle]

Lol the blueprint itself I did not make. I do not have that kind of talent, I just use it for testing mesh baking and optimization

[dark summit]

🤷🏼‍♂️ whomever lot of builders did that I mean 👏 amazing

[copper pasture]

I mean... Lord, I would do anything just to make a huge city in this game someday where 100 players would walk around and nothing would cut... xd
Is this something where you convert a blueprint into 1 object and it takes 1 instance, or is there some other way to convert? Sorry, I know a little about programming, but I'm curious about this.

[solar shuttle]

This takes the blueprint and converts it to a single game object but it can be many instances depending on the blueprint. All interactables need to be stripped and added back after the mesh baking etc in order to maintain function. So the phalanx there goes from 113k pieces down to about 7500 because it has a lot of interactables/signs etc that are skipped from the main combine

It's a process that I used to do in unity and then bundle the assets and create a piece mod for them but now it can be done by anyone from within the game with a click of a button. Bundles the new prefab as an asset and loads it to the game properly on the next launch 😎

[copper pasture]

I wrote about this a long time ago on OdinPlus's Wish channel. I generally thought about building something from scratch and converting it into a single object. This would significantly reduce the game's optimization load.
Of course they laughed at me for this post xD

[empty bone]

But it would not reduce the polygon counts (triangles, faces, vertices) which are also a big killer. If you slap an lod on it I bet the count would be around 5M ? 👀 but nice work ofc! 1 step further to increase the fps

[solar shuttle]

The previous version still dropped the game to ~10fps when placed.

Welding inner verts, combining mesh by zone and applying all proper lod levels significantly increases the performance around them

[solar shuttle]

God bless o+ and all they stand for😆

But mine will be different of course, instead of using an item, the cart will be a physical object you build on the rails.
