Installation & multiplayer
Install ContainerCustomizer by Zephyrfit through Gale or a compatible mod manager. Requires BepInEx.
Client-side: no server installation required. Players need the mod to see shared styles; use the same version. Editing respects container ownership, including SimpleAccessControl when installed. Inventory capacity and access permissions remain unchanged. Search covers nearby loaded containers.
Languages: French, English, Russian and Simplified Chinese, selected automatically from Valheim. Missing translations fall back to English.
Support
Installation help, bug reports and suggestions: zephyrfit on Discord. For bugs, include your mod version and BepInEx/LogOutput.log.

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:
