About us
GG-AU / Goated Geese is a social community, mainly on Discord. We're open to anyone who wants to chat, play games, and join in events.
- We're based in Australia, so community-hosted servers are typically in OCE.
- We're social first: join to talk, engage, and play with others in our space, rather than solely for access to hosted servers.
Contents
- Building: HedgeWalls, OdinArchitect, OdinCampsite, OdinsFoodBarrels, Chain Manager, and the dust-removal mods.
- Farming and creatures: PlantEverything, PlantEasily, Valharvest, SeedBed, PetPantry, Hunting, and Procreation Plus.
- Sailing and fishing: OdinShip, balrond shipyard, and Hooked.
- Storage and crafting: AzuCraftyBoxes, AzuAutoStore, MultiUserChest, DynamicStoragePiles, RossItemDrawers, Recycle N Reclaim, and AAA Crafting.
- Travel and quality of life: XPortal, QuickTeleport, TeleportCreatures, ZenPath, BetterArchery, Better Wisps, AzuHoverStats (including the supplied PT-BR translation), ComfyAutoRepair, and AzuAreaRepair.
- Additional gameplay and utilities: AllfathersEye, MaxPlayerCount, Max Dungeon Rooms, and Smoke Collision.
- Performance, networking, and inventory: AssetUnloadGate, BetterNetworking Valheim, and EquipmentAndQuickSlots.
- Frameworks: BepInExPack Valheim, Jotunn, JsonDotNET, and Zen ModLib.
See the package's Dependencies list or manifest.json for all 46 direct dependencies and their declared versions.
Version
Pack version: 2.1.1. This is the V2 player edition of GG_AU_Valheim_Modpack; V1 remains archived in the source repository.
Installation
- Install Mod Manager or r2modman and select Valheim.
- Create a fresh profile for the V2 server. An existing V1 profile can retain old mods and configs after a pack update.
- Install GG_AU_Valheim_Modpack version 2.1.1. Your mod manager installs its dependencies automatically.
- Start the game using the manager's modded launch option, then join the matching GG-AU server.
This release supplies dependencies and package metadata. It does not bundle server-specific configs; mods generate their defaults on first launch. Follow the community's server setup instructions for any required configuration. Mod managers may resolve newer dependency versions, so compare the installed profile with the server before joining.
ServerSideMap, ValheimWebMap, Server devcommands, and ServerInfo are excluded from this player pack. If you previously installed 2.0.0, create a fresh profile or remove these four packages from your existing profile; updating the pack may leave previously installed dependencies behind.
Server setup
Build and test the server's mod profile separately, following each mod author's client/server installation requirements. Match gameplay and content mods between server and clients, then configure player limits, admin permissions, ServerInfo, and map services for the actual server. Installing this pack alone does not configure those services.
Notes on the new additions
- BetterNetworking: compression works between machines running this mod; install it on the server as well to use compression on that connection. Restart the server after installing or changing its settings.
- AAA Crafting: included as requested, but marks this package as deprecated. Its compatibility with the current server build needs an in-game test.
- EquipmentAndQuickSlots: supports client-side installation. Avoid adding competing inventory-slot mods such as AzuExtendedPlayerInventory, ExtendedPlayerInventory, ExtraSlots, or ComfyQuickSlots to this profile; the author declares them incompatible.

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:
