About this mod Author’s original text
BulkSmelt
BulkSmelt is a quality-of-life (QoL) mod for Valheim designed to eliminate the tedious grind of manually loading processing stations. Instead of spamming the E key dozens of times, this mod lets you instantly fill your stations with a single key press.
Features
- Instant Bulk Loading: Hold Shift and press E to instantly fill a station with all required resources directly from your inventory.
- Supported Stations:
- Charcoal Kiln: Bulk add wood.
- Smelter & Blast Furnace: Bulk add fuel (coal) and ore (Copper, Tin, Iron, Silver, Black Metal, Flametal).
- Windmill: Bulk add Barley.
- Spinning Wheel: Bulk add Flax.
- Eitr Refinery: Bulk add Soft Tissue (fuel) and Sap (material).
- In-Game Notifications: Displays a clear on-screen message showing exactly how many items or fuel pieces were inserted.
- Fully Customizable: Toggle the mod on/off, or set a resource limit per station in the config file.
Configuration
After launching the game with the mod installed for the first time, a configuration file named ChillCodeClub.BulkSmelt.cfg will be generated in your BepInEx/config folder.
Inside, you can customize:
- Mod Enabled: Toggle the entire mod functionality on or off.
- Toggle Key: Set an in-game hotkey to quickly enable/disable the mod. (The bulk-fill shortcut itself is fixed to Shift + E and cannot be rebound.)
- Resource Limits: Set custom maximum limits for Wood, Coal, Soft Tissue, every ore, Sap, Barley, and Flax — setting a value to 0 fills the station completely.
Installation
- Ensure you have the BepInEx Pack for Valheim installed.
- Download the mod archive.
- Extract and place BulkSmelt.dll into your Valheim/BepInEx/plugins folder.
- Launch the game and enjoy seamless smelting.
Known limitation
Per-resource limits default to the real vanilla station capacities (Kiln 25 wood, Smelter/Blast Furnace 20 coal / 10 ore, Windmill 50 barley, Spinning Wheel 40 flax, Eitr Refinery 20 Sap / 20 Soft Tissue). Set 0 for any of them to always fill to the station's real max instead of a fixed number.
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
