About this mod Author’s original text

DevTools

This BepInEx plugin adds the spawn60 cheat command for testing. It spawns one each of 60 different materials near your character using Valheim's built-in spawn command.

Install

Install this package with Gale, r2modman, or Mod Manager. The manager installs its Valheim BepInEx pack dependency. Launch Valheim with Start modded.

Manual installation

Install the Valheim BepInEx pack first. Download this package's ZIP, extract it, and place the extracted folder under the active Valheim profile's BepInEx/plugins directory. Keep DevTools.dll inside that folder; manifest.json, README.md, and icon.png can stay there too. Remove any older copy of DevTools.dll elsewhere in BepInEx/plugins, then launch Valheim modded.

Enable the developer console

In Gale, select the Valheim profile where you installed DevTools and click the Settings gear in the far-left sidebar:

On the Settings page, check Valheim settings → Launch → Launch mode:

  • If it is Direct, scroll to Profile settings → Launch → Custom launch arguments and enter -console.
  • If it is Platform (Steam), add -console in Steam → Valheim → Properties → General → Launch Options instead.

Launch the game modded through Gale. In your own world, press F5 to open the console and enter devcommands. Enter spawn60 to spawn the materials. If Valheim asks you to confirm cheats, enter confirmcheats and then repeat spawn60.

Cheat commands and spawned items can affect achievements in Valheim 1.0.

Build from source

Run dotnet build.\ValheimMods\ValheimMods.sln from the repository root. The shared build target copies the plugin DLL to the selected Gale profile.

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.
