About this mod Author’s original text
PortalNames
Lets you type longer portal names.
Vanilla Valheim limits the portal name box to 10 characters. PortalNames raises that limit (30 by default) for portals only - signs and other text boxes are unchanged.
Install
Only the player typing a portal name needs this mod. Everyone else sees long names without it, and the server does not need it. Requires BepInExPack Valheim.
Configuration
BepInEx/config/wick.portalnames.cfg:
| Setting | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| MaxLength | 30 | Longest portal name you can type (10 to 100) |
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:
