Features
By default, this mod changes the maximum value of the GUI Scale slider under the Misc tab in the game settings.
Once the game has run once with the mod installed, a config file will appear under \Bepinex\config where you can specify the maximum value yourself.
FAQ
Why Would I Want This?
If you have a very large or multi-monitor set up, it can help to scale the UI more than the vanilla 115% maximum.
Does this work with Better UI (Reforged) or mod?
Yes, and if fact it works really well in conjunction with something like Better UI since Valheim's native GUI scale value also affects the global text element sizes, whereas other mods may only affect the size of specific UI element panels.
In short, this is a very simple mod so unless another given mod specifically modifies the GUI Scale slider maximum value, it shouldn't conflict.

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:
