About this mod Author’s original text

Idol Crafting

Adds normal Workbench crafting recipes for the Deep North armor and weapon upgrade idols.

The mod allows the special UpgraderXArmor and UpgraderXWeapon items to be used as normal crafting ingredients, bypassing the vanilla upgrader-resource restriction that prevents them from being used as regular Workbench recipe requirements.

  • Tier 0 -> Tier 1: 25
  • Tier 1 -> Tier 2: 50

  • Tier 3 -> Tier 4: 200
  • Tier 4 -> Tier 5: 400

  • Valheim

Version

1.0.0

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:
