About this mod Author’s original text
Cheese
AFK skill grinding for Valheim. Toggle an action on, alt-tab, and let it run. Cheese waits on your
real stamina, eitr and health (so food and buffs are accounted for), and keeps itself going: it eats,
repairs, crafts arrows and rests on its own.
Client-side only: the server and other players don't need it.
Based on AutoAttack by orax (MIT-0).
Don't run both at the same time.
Controls
| Keys | Action |
|---|---|
| Left Alt + right click | Start / stop |
| Left Alt + middle click | Change mode |
Holding a movement key or jump pauses it. Pressing attack, secondary attack, block, crouch, use,
sit, dodge or autorun stops it. Both lists are configurable.
Modes
- Attack: holds attack. Works for every weapon, tool and staff (axes on trees, pickaxes on rock,
Staff of Frost). Bows release at a configurable draw percentage, so you don't have to wait for a full draw.
- Run: sprints forward (run into a wall).
- Jump: jumps as soon as you land (works well under a low roof).
- Sneak: crouches and walks forward (into a training dummy).
- Block: holds block.
- Dodge: dodges as fast as the cooldown allows.
Waiting on stamina, eitr and health
When stamina falls to Pause at resource %, or below the cost of the next action, the action stops
until stamina refills to Resume at resource % (default 50). Weapons that cost eitr wait on eitr
instead. Health works the same way with Pause at health % / Resume at health %. Values are read
live, never from timers.
Maintenance
All of these run only while the toggle is on, and each can be turned off.
- Eat: re-eats the same food from your inventory when its timer has Re-eat food at % remaining left.
- Repair: when the weapon reaches Repair at durability %, interacts with the crafting station
within reach (2 m) and ComfyAutoRepair repairs it.
- Arrows: when the last ammo used drops below Craft ammo below, crafts the same ammo at the
station within reach, up to Craft ammo up to. With Craft From Chests installed, materials in nearby
chests count.
- Rest: when Rested runs out, sits down until the game grants Rested again (fire nearby, no enemy
sensing you).
- Return to start: walks back to where you turned it on when lunges or dodges push you away
(Attack, Jump, Block, Dodge).
Recommended setup
A training dummy, a workbench right behind you, a fire, and shelter or a chair. Optional:
Craft From Chests for arrows from chest materials.
Configuration
BepInEx/config/Cheese.cfg, or r2modman > Config editor > Cheese.
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:
