About this mod Author’s original text
Loincloth of Shame
Every time you die in Valheim, your Starting Rags snap to a random shame colour — hot pink, neon green, royal purple, screaming orange, and more. The colour persists through respawn so your friends can see exactly how many times you've embarrassed yourself.
Features
- 10 random shame colours applied on every death
- Works for both male (loincloth) and female (chest rags + loincloth) characters
- Colour visible to all players who have the mod installed
- Colour hides automatically when real armour is equipped over the rags
- Colour persists through logout and relog — your shame follows you
- Shame colour shown on the main menu character preview screen
- No configuration needed — just install and die

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:
