Install through a -compatible mod manager. For manual installation, place DadsEPI.dll under BepInEx/plugins/DadsEPI.
Compatibility
DadsEPI is a client-side inventory owner. Do not run it alongside AzuExtendedPlayerInventory, EquipmentAndQuickSlots, or another mod that changes player inventory dimensions or owns equipment slots.
Version 1.4.5 targets Valheim 1.0.12 and BepInEx 5.4.2350. Back up the character before changing inventory-owner mods.

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:
