About this mod Author’s original text

Expanded Boat Minimap

Expand the minimap explore radius while in a boat. This increases how much of the map around you is uncovered while on a boat. By default, each boat has their own exploration radius.

Installation Guide

Add the ExpandedBoatMinimap.dll to your BepInEx/plugins folder. This is a client-side only mod and does not need to be installed on the server.

Configuration

Update the lunarbin.games.valheim.expanded-boat-minimap.cfg file inside your BepInEx/config folder.

Changelog

  • 1.0.0 - Updated to work with Valheim 1.0
  • 0.1.1 - Removed the message when entering a boat for the first time.
  • 0.1.0 - Initial Release

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.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
