I can be banned from using mods?
There is a ton of mods that are very interesting, but can i be banned for using them? I play solo or with a group of friends, not in open servers. So we will be banned from the game using mods?
I'm asking this because in Dark Souls 3 it is possible to be banned if you use a mod, so its like losing all the money and time used playing DS3. I just don't want this to happen, we will only use mod that is more quality of life like Valheim Plus, nothing like Epic Loot, well at least i'm thinking using the Epic Loot after i finish my first world, maybe after the second or third.

Yeah, i know that my english is bad, i hope that is understandable.

There's no anti cheat, so nothing automatic can occur but you can be banned from a server based on the owners discretion. So long as you are playing alone or with friends who agree on their use, you'll be fine.

You won't get banned. The game has no anti-cheat or anti-temper measures in place. That being said, you'll most likely not be able to play on servers or with other people if they don't have the same mods you've got installed, unless maybe if the mods in question are purely visual.

Yeah I resorted to using console commands to get my personal world on track with my friends world because it got to the point where I couldn't repair my gear if he wasn't online. You might get banned from SERVERS, I guess, but I don't think mods normally carry over like that.

I've no idea exactly how mods would work with multiplayer in Valheim, since so far most mods use BepInEx, and the only other games I know of that utilize BepInEx also happen to have official mod support and some measures put in place that ensure you can only play with folk who have the same mods as you do.

On public servers not yet.. however they might block console commands at some point or block mod use.. ie refuse access.

You might get banned on private servers tho. Something to bare in mind.

my 2 cents: don't bother installing any mods that speed up the process of gathering/processing resources.
it's pointless. if transporting ores takes too much time, spawn them with imacheater in-game console.
if mining ore takes too long or you don't get enough ore when mining, again spawn the ores yourself.
if it takes too long smelting stuff, again, use the imacheater console to spawn bars
if you dislike travelling the map in a boat because the wind is annoying and it takes to much time, the in-game imacheater console allows you to teleport to any spot on the map
if you think some mobs are annoying because you die to them, turn on god mode so nothing can hurt you.
the console also allows you to kill any nearby mob, make you feel real strong & powerful
strip it all away. the time it takes to explore and gather resources and you're left with a glorified building sim.
so spawn what you need & have fun..building..stuff
