About this mod Author’s original text

DogHaus Valheim

The modpack the DogHaus Valheim server runs: vanilla-plus building, seasons with a real winter, Balrond and Odin

building sets, raids with more variety, and a pile of quality-of-life fixes. It includes the server's config files, so

installing the pack gives you exactly the settings the server uses.

Install

  • Install r2modman (or Mod Manager) and pick Valheim.
  • Create a new profile, search the Online tab for DogHaus Valheim, and install it. Everything below comes with it.
  • Start the game with Start modded.

The server checks your DogHausTweaks version when you join; if it refuses you with "Incompatible version", update the

pack. Gameplay numbers come from the server when you join, so most balance changes never need a pack update.

Highlights

  • Seasons with 20-day seasons and a winter that bites: long cold, wet clothes and the dead of night can freeze you.

Shelter with a fire, a placed torch, or frost gear keeps you safe. In winter you only rest under a roof with a fire.

  • Building: Balrond Constructions, Furniture Reborn, Shipyard, Hearth Marks, Lightkeeper; Odin's Kingdom, Architect

and Food Barrels - all on the vanilla hammer, with costs and health balanced to vanilla. Crafting stations reach 25%

farther.

  • Terrain: ground has health, bedrock at 12 m, creature craters, square and round smoothing tools, a 4x4 restore-ground tool, 4x4 and 8x8 level tools, deeper digs give more stone, a world grid (J).
  • Armor and item stands open like chests (E); Y at an armor stand swaps your armor (Runic Display Stands).
  • Raids: about a third vanilla, the rest new mixed-biome, weather, night and seasonal raids.
  • Snow: builds up on roofs through winter, peaks late, thaws before spring; sweep it off with the hammer.
  • Server commands: announce, give, summon, skipseason for admins, from the game or the server console.

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.
