About this mod Author’s original text
ObeliskRU
Russian localization pack for supported Valheim mods. It translates player-facing names, descriptions, messages, tooltips, tutorials, interface text, and closed captions while leaving mod configuration options unchanged.
Supported mods
- Balrond mods: Amazing Nature, Arsenal Reborn, Constructions, Dual Mastery, Furniture Reborn, Humanoid Randomizer, Lightkeeper, and Shipyard.
- Azu mods: Area Repair, Auto Store, Crafty Boxes, Workbench Tweaks, Build Camera, First Person Mode, and Perfect Placement.
- Adventure Backpacks, Creature Level and Loot Control, Culinary Horizons, Epic Loot, Eternal Legends, Hunter Legacy, Impactful Skills, Inventory Slots, Jotunn, Magic Supremacy, More World Locations AIO, Move Build Pieces, Odin's Steelworks, Passive Powers, Plant Easily, Plant Everything, Valheim Armory, VNEI, XPortal, and several smaller utility mods.
Every supported mod is optional and detected automatically. ObeliskRU works with or without Balrond Nature Optimizer. Unsupported or missing mods are skipped safely.
Installation
Install the package Mod Manager, Gale, r2modman, or another -compatible manager. BepInExPack Valheim 5.4.2333 or a compatible version is required.
Fully restart Valheim after updating the package so mods such as VNEI can rebuild their cached item and tooltip data with the translated text.
Compatibility and performance
Translations are prepared during startup and the localization component then disables itself. When a supported mod already provides Russian, including Culinary Horizons, Magic Supremacy, Eternal Legends, and Hunter Legacy, its translation stays authoritative and ObeliskRU only registers missing or empty entries. A lightweight language-setup hook reapplies those small deltas after a language reload, including installations without Jotunn.
There are no per-frame translation methods, UI polling loops, file watchers, or background translation tasks. Existing Compendium entries from older versions are updated when a character is loaded.
Internal prefab names, network identifiers, hashes, skill IDs, and other save or multiplayer identities are preserved.
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:
