What is MoreVanillaBuilds?
MoreVanillaBuilds (MVB) is a Valheim mod to make all vanilla prefabs buildable with the hammer (survival way). This mod is inspirated by BetterCreative.
For each detected prefab in the game you can:
- Enable/Disable it from the hammer
- Define custom recipe to build the prefab ingame
How to install it (manual)?
You need a modded instance of Valheim (BepInEx) and Jötunn plugin installed.
- Download the last MoreVanillaBuilds.dll available.
- Place the MoreVanillaBuilds.dll into your BepInEx\plugins folder
- You need launch the game first (and enter in a world) to generate the configuration file. The plugin search for prefabs in the game loading screen.
- Stop the game. You found a fr.galathil.MoreVanillaBuilds.cfg in your BepInEx\config folder, open it to customize mod configuration (describe below)
How to configure the mod?
Open fr.galathil.MoreVanillaBuilds.cfg in your BepInEx\config with a notepad.
You need to edit the configuration file with client/server off! If you use an ingame configuration manager, you need to restart the game/server to apply configuration.
In the main section you found:
- forceAllPrefabs = false change false to true for enable all prefabs in the hammer.
- verboseMode = false You should keep it to false. This configuration display informations in the console for debug purposes (and slow down game performances)
The rest of the configuration files contains [prefab-xxxxxx] sections to configure each prefab. Each section contains:
- isEnable = false. Change it to true to show the prefab in the hammer. Note that if forceAllPrefabs is set to true, this config is ignored.
- category = Misc. In wich tab the prefab should appear. Vanilla categories are: Misc | Crafting | Building | HeavyBuild | Furniture.
- requirements =. The requirements to build the prefab. By default, no requirements needed (like creative mod). Each requirement is separated by a semicolon (;). Each requirement contain the itemID and the quantity separated by a comma (,). You can find itemID on Valheim Wiki or on this link: Example: requirements = Wood,5;Stone,2, in this case you need 5 woods and 2 stones to build the prefab

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:
