mods you consider you can't play without

[eqalidan]

so im a number of hours in, enough that certain things are starting to annoy me and im looking for ways to change how the game is played.

the first one is just the map in general, resources and stuff that I don't really want to have to mark off, and it seems there is a map mod, which is a collection of other mods.

I also hate needing to look at what resources I need to do something, and I would love to see how much I have, or even use resources from near by chests, there is a mod for that.

I also saw one that changes the number to a star system on tier of item and holy crap was that something I didn't realise I needed/wanted till I saw it.

so that got me wondering, are there any other quality of life mods that you would rather not play the game without them?

I think for now the only other thing I would really want is a better leveling the ground system and a good way to make a slope that wont be hellish to climb.

I'd love a mod that would make larger base less fps hungry, playing multiplayer and making a large base for everyone and having 20 fps is annoying, it seems to mostly be due to cpu usage constantly calculating building's integrity

What kills the FPS is the number of things you have, that produce smoke particles. I downloaded "Smoke_Collision" by JeruKuusela to configure smoke particle from stations and torches/campfires and since then, my FPS don't go down as much as before. Now the only thing that bottle necks me is my CPU, lol.

The only mod I use is mistbegone for the mistlands because I'm visually impaired. I was mostly skipping it after the first time through by only building and searching for things on the very edges.

Same mod, different reason: I have PTSD and paranoia, (both minor, but present) and hearing Gjall but not seeing them was driving my nerves crazy. It got so bad I had to quit playing for a while. mistbegone let me actually play Valheim again,

Recyle and Reclaim - Allows you to deconstruct your stuff and reuse the materials.

Quick Stack Store Sort Trash Restock - no need to open chests as often anymore, just hit hotkeys and stuff is put into them or taken out of them

AAA Crafting - search feature for recipes, enter how many things to craft

AzuCraftyBoxes - access resources from nearby containers

AutoRepair - opening a crafting station repairs whatever it can repair

PlantEasily - plant crops in a grid, harvest in an area

PlantEverything - plant berries, thistles, dandelions, mushrooms, etc.

Wouldn't play the game without those again.


-----------------

Personally, I also turned off not being to transport ingots through portals. It just took way too much time to collect and then sail around the world.

PlantEverything - Just like being able to put down some berry/mushroom plots nearby so I don't have to trek

Farm Grid - No need to manually space out plants

and these;

HeightmapUnlimited - remove the +/- 8 metre limit of raising lowering terrain.
Ruler - Nice way to measure out from place to place.

When I am creating things I use the following as well;

GenericObjectRemover
ESP
InfinityTools
InfinityHammer
StructureTweaks
WorldEditCommands
RenderLimits
UpgradeWorld

Which allow me to do a multitude of world edits to make things look and act the way I want recreating fantasy maps from pen and paper RPGs

Geez... I play two versions, a vanilla and a modded.

Modded has its own server for my Dad and I. It uses 102 mods.

It all started with "why dont I have a quiver, or a backpack?" That led me to finding a quiver and a backpack.

I know from reading countless forums, discords and youtube channels that many folks are die hard 'nilla. I get that, playing the game the devs meant us to play as is, is cool.

Personally, I like building, I like taming, I like enchanting gear. I like to have fire infused enemies dropping enchanting materials. I like having Hundreds of different armor and weapons to choose from. I like building my own boat from scratch, however i want it. i like having cows and pigs. I like growing corn and apples. I like being able to switch between 5 different types of arrows by pressing Shift, 1-5 after crafting a quiver made out of lox pelt. I love running into a 5-star Greydwarf that hits for fire damage. I like having a family of bear protecting my home. I especially love crafting weapons out of the trophies of bosses.

Point is, I love a heavily modded game. I dont cheat in building materials and farm all that myself. Due to having all these options it took me more than 5 months to get to Mistlands. Content and variety is what I like. I dont really want to speed run through anything ya know? But we're all different.

If you like building like crazy, theres TONS of build piece mods.
Valheim RAFT allows you to build custom rafts.
AZU Extended player Inventory gives the player slots for armor that do not take up inventory space.
Bows Before Hoes gives you quivers.
AZU crafty boxes lets you craft from storage (super handy, no more looking through endless chests)
Missing Pieces by BentoG adds more diverse vanilla build pieces.
Black7ar (mod maker) has several mods that add finewood, corewood and even glass pieces that are made using silica that you mine, then turn to glass using a smelter.

For building, by far my favorite is "COMFY GIZMO" which adds tons of snap points and rotation angles, you can spin any build piece in any direction. Place floors upside down, use floors for walls. By holding ctrl, or alt then mousewheel, you rotate the pieces.

Marlthon made a bunch of awesome boats with their own crafitng stations, they are soooo dope

My Dirty Hoe allows the player to alter terrain very quickly (can be very cheaty if desired)

"Warpalicious" (mod maker) made several mods that add new locations to the map (As long as its a new map) like bigger structures that you can use as prefabs for your own buildings.

It all depends on what you want to add to your game and playstyle :)

The only mod I use now is willybachs improved textures. It provides a bit more immersion for me.

No Epic Loot?

Are you by chance waiting on Therzies mods to get finished? Deep north etc...

I have to recomend comfy gizmo if you like building.

Hers my modlist code if you use Thunderstore, I dunno how to make a spreadsheet like the one you sent

I'm trying to avoid major content changes with Valheim for now, sticking to mostly QoL stuff. My essentials list:

• Valheim+ to tweak a bunch of different things. Add some inventory, expand chests, add automation to smelting, refueling (or even remove refueling costs) for both smelters and lighting... the list goes on, but it's great.
  
• Plant Everything - as mentioned by others, just a great option for designing aesthetically
  
• DeezMistyBalls - lets you adjust the fog-clear radius of the Mistball. I thought it was weird that it's so small and doesn't expand as you level the item, so I bumped it up a fair bit.
  
• Slope Hit Fix - I decided I wanted to try to play with spear almost exclusively, and if you have ever tried to use a spear in this game on anything other than the flattest terrain, you know the pain. This mod ends that pain. Mistlands update made me accept that I was going to have to mod the game to fix some of the issues I had, and this was the very first mod I downloaded, even before Valheim+.

I've got 4 mods I will NOT play without. If a game update breaks one of these mods I stop playing until the mod gets updated.

Gamma mod; don't have to mess with your GPU's global gamma setting to actually see anything past 1 meter with a torch at night. Game is unplayable for me without this one. It was why I started moding in the first place.
https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1819

Bigger mini map discovery radius. Still not as far as you can see but better than default
https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/210

extended inventory; puts the armor your wearing in seperate slots, also has three extra slots for things you would carry on your belt like potions. Having the extra 4 slots in general inventory make a huge difference. I haven't complained about running out of bag space since I started using it.
https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/449


And then three mods that just make the game more enjoyable for me.

Triple Bronze; 2 Cu + 1 Tin == 3 Bronze, as it should be. Less grind in the Dark Forest to get ready for the swamp.
https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1463

Compass; always know where North is. much easier to navigate on the Ocean.
https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/851

Farmgrid; never worry about planting your precious seeds too close togther.

To all the people saying they only play vanilla.
Why are you even bothering to respond to a thread that's clearly not addressed at you? Does it make you feel better flaunting your purity like a fair maiden in the middle ages or something?

Mistbegone, EpicLoot (heavily configured to remove any drops and only keep the enchanting and trading part) and my own personally tailored to our multiplayer needs.

I play vanilla.
