About this mod Author’s original text
MaxFoodSlots
MaxFoodSlots is a Valheim mod that changes the maximum number of simultaneous food buffs to your desired amount.
By default, Valheim only allows 3 foods at the same time.
This mod makes that number configurable (e.g. 4, 5, …) and automatically adjusts the ability to eat more or less food to match your chosen value.
Features
- Configurable maximum number of active foods (e.g. 3–7)
- Player.CanEat and Player.EatFood use the configured value instead of the vanilla 3
- HUD:
- creates additional food slots
- correctly displays icon and timer for each slot
- hides extra slots again if you reduce the number
- Config changes can be applied at runtime:
- Increasing the value: new slots are dynamically created
- Decreasing the value: extra slots are hidden (if you ate 7 foods and reduce slots to 4, you will still have buffs of all 7 but from that point you will no longer be able to eat more than 4)
Manual Installation
- Install BepInEx (if you haven’t already).

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:
