About this mod Author’s original text

Cano.Fixedheim

Valheim's new build menu is lacking alot of functionality. So I made this mod to solve some of its issues, as well as other things I wanted without having to add a bunch of mods.

So I made this mainly for myself but sharing it so others wanting a similar solution can have one.

Requirements

  • Valheim 1.0+
  • BepInExPack Valheim-5.4.2351

No additional mod dependencies are required.

Installation

Mod Manager / r2modman

  • Install Cano.Fixedheim through Mod Manager, r2modman, or another compatible client.
  • Make sure BepInExPack Valheim is installed.
  • Launch Valheim through the mod manager.
  • The mod will generate its configuration file automatically on first launch.

Manual installation

  • Install BepInExPack Valheim and make sure BepInEx is working correctly.
  • Download the Cano.Fixedheim release.
  • Extract the mod archive.
  • Place the mod DLL in:

Valheim/BepInEx/plugins/Cano.Fixedheim/

  • Launch Valheim.

The final structure should look similar to:

Valheim/

└── BepInEx/

└── plugins/

└── Cano.Fixedheim/

└── Cano.Fixedheim.dll

Config

The configuration file is generated by BepInEx after the first launch.

All settings are grouped into sections:

Features

Simple Sorting

  • Sort your inventory with a configurable shortcut.
  • Sort an open chest with a separate configurable shortcut.
  • Partial stacks of the same item are merged.
  • The hotbar row is never moved.
  • Sorting can be ordered by:
  • Alphabetical
  • Weight
  • Category
  • Shortcuts only activate when their exact modifier combination is held.
  • Shortcuts can be cleared in the configuration to disable them.

Default shortcuts

  • R — sort inventory
  • Shift + R — sort chest

Mouse QoL

Adds more precise ways to interact with item stacks without replacing Valheim's normal right-click behaviour.

  • Single item pickup: Hold Single Item Modifier Key and right-click a stack to pick up one item at a time.
  • Ctrl on Windows/Linux
  • Cmd on macOS
  • Scroll to adjust: Use the mouse wheel over a stack to pick up one item or adjust the amount being carried.
  • Cancel with the wheel: Scroll down to zero while carrying a stack to cancel the pickup.
  • Middle-click: Pick up half of a stack.
  • Drag to distribute: Hold the distribution modifier, click an empty slot, and drag across additional empty slots to distribute the carried stack evenly.

Plain right-click remains Valheim's normal behaviour.

Build QoL

Repair Tools

  • V selects the Repair tool.
  • Shift + V repairs every

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. 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.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. 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.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
