Regarding Mods And Valheim Updates

[Munin]

We want to remind everyone that Valheim doesn't officially support mods. While we understand that many players enjoy using mods to enhance their gaming experience, it's important to note that every little update to the game can break your mods.

We know that this can be frustrating, but we want to make it clear that if you choose to use unofficial modifications, you do so at your own risk. Valheim doesn't provide any official support for mods, and as a result, we cannot guarantee that they will continue to work after each update.

It's also worth mentioning that no one is to blame if your mods break after an update. It's simply a risk you take when using unofficial modifications. While we do understand the appeal of using mods to add new content, fix bugs or improve gameplay mechanics, it's important to weigh the potential consequences against the benefits.

As always, we encourage all players to enjoy Valheim in whatever way brings them the most fun and enjoyment. Just keep in mind that if you choose to use mods, you may need to adjust your expectations accordingly. Thank you for your understanding, and happy gaming!

even with default_old beta. I wish they would just leave it alone and lay off the constant trickle of patches

Seriously. I refuse to play this game with crap graphics.

I think a big part of the problem is that folk often use mods to change or fix things about the game they don't like. The devs are in no way obligated to support this, but how about looking at a lot of the most popular mods - Valheim Plus for instance, and just implementing the good ideas into the game?
A lot of what VP does is to give you OPTIONS as to how the game works, and why that can't be included in the configs I have no idea.
If you give more people the ability to play the game the way they want them you get more customers...

CTD again

even with default_old beta. I wish they would just leave it alone and lay off the constant trickle of patches

I'll raise a glass to that one.

Found a nifty solution to the last patch breaking our community server (yeah yeah, I get it - the update broke the MOD not the game), and I wake up today to play tonight, 200 byte patch and... all characters have gone, server won't fire up, and had to roll back to default_old again. *sigh*

I'm not giving the devs grief if an update breaks a mod - I get it. It's on us, as people who use mods. As per above, it'd be great if the game simply supported mods, but with Xbox, I can't imagine that's a route you wanna go down. And you're not going to add features to allow stuff through portals / auto craft from chests / QOL tweaks that make a 'huge' difference... and so we're here. Playing a game of cat and mouse.

At least you were able to run on default_old. That option doesn't work for me either.

I'm only using 3 mods and these are tiny updates. Same thing happened last time, but then I was able to use default_old beta to get it working.

[Beani]

Stop forcing the crossplay and the mods would be fine

[SpeedReader26]

I think the most annoying thing is when they fix the saves and move them so things just don't work anymore not because the mods are broken but because they keep moving all the files the mods need to access. It's like they're attempting purposefully to make things worse.

[Melidove]

Just finis your game already, the question is why so many ppl need to rely on mods to keep your game alive

[Beani]

Im cancelling my server today this craps gone on for weeks

These mini updates are destroying us by a thousand cuts

This is to get V+ working. It looks like the devs have kinda abandoned V+ at this point, but someone's forked it and gotten it working for the last few updates. Details here:

https://github.com/Grantapher/ValheimPlus/releases/tag/0.9.9.13

Make sure BepInExPack_Valheim is up to date (included with these releases)

If it's beyond that - sorry friend. :(

As the guy my friends moan at when the server falls over, I feel that in my bones.

I understand that Valheim doesn't officially support mods it would be great to have a option to choose which version of the game you would like to downgrade to. Similar to how Minecraft lets you choose between old, current, and beta builds of the game. I was playing on the March 13th update with a friend and we modded it a bit. Then the update on the 17th broke our modpack. We resolved it by using the [Deafult_old] launch option and it worked again. It was working fine until todays update.....

That's how I got it working 2 days ago, after struggling for 2 weeks with Gportal dedicated server. That new update crashed it again...

[Shemmie]

^ Yeah, the new update broke it entirely for me, but rolling back to default_old for client and server, with that patch, got it working again - for now...

[Beani]

Ive removed V+ and its still broken on Nitrado

Im no longer going to deploy V+ on my servers it seems to cause 99% of the issues on these mini NUKE xbox updates being forced on the PC players best thing to do as PC server owners is uncheck the crossplay box

[JakXLT]

Yes, we do take our own risk. We should however have the choice whether or not to update the game. We used to have that choice, but Valve took it away. They are the ones everyone should be angry at every update.

I advise everyone who reads this to throttle all downloads to 1kbps between some random hours you'll be offline and launch as many games as possible directly from the exe
