No Fall Damage — Valheim Mod

Author: YouDied

Version: 1.0.0

Zero configuration. Install and forget — your character takes absolutely no fall damage.

How it works

Valheim tracks the highest altitude a character reaches while airborne in a field called m_maxAirAltitude. When the character lands, the engine subtracts the landing Y position from that peak to get the fall distance, then applies damage.

This mod patches Character.UpdateGroundContact via Harmony. Every frame, it resets m_maxAirAltitude to the character's current Y position, so the engine always sees a fall distance of zero → no damage.

Prerequisites

  • BepInEx 5.x installed in your Valheim folder

-.NET SDK (6.0 or later) for building

  • Valheim installed via Steam

Build

  • Open NoFallDamage.csproj in a text editor and update `` to your Valheim install path if it differs from the default.
  • Build from the project folder:

dotnet build -c Release

The compiled DLL ends up in bin\Release\netstandard2.1\NoFallDamage.dll.

Install

Copy NoFallDamage.dll into:

\BepInEx\plugins\

Launch Valheim. You'll see this line in BepInEx\LogOutput.log confirming it loaded:

[Info: No Fall Damage] No Fall Damage loaded — fall damage disabled.

Uninstall

Delete NoFallDamage.dll from the BepInEx\plugins\ folder.

Compatibility

  • Works in single-player and multiplayer (client-side only; the server doesn't need it).
  • No config file, no settings, no dependencies beyond BepInEx.
  • Safe to add or remove mid-playthrough.

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:
