About this mod Author’s original text
Sturdy Torch (Repairable Torch)
Adds the Sturdy Torch - a reinforced, leather-bound torch that can be repaired at a workbench instead of vanishing when it burns out.
Why
The vanilla hand torch permanently disappears once its 100 durability runs out (~10 minutes of use), and can never be repaired. This mod adds an alternative torch that fixes that.
Features
- Repairable at any workbench, just like other tools
- Custom recipe so it isn't a free upgrade over the vanilla torch
- 50 max durability, tuned to a 20-minute burn time per full charge
- Leather-brown tint on both the model and item icon so it's easy to tell apart from the vanilla torch at a glance
Recipe
Craftable at a workbench:
| Material | Amount |
|---|---|
| Core Wood | 3 |
| Resin | 4 |
| Deer Hide | 4 |
Installation
- Install BepInEx Pack for Valheim and Jotunn if you don't already have them.
- Extract this mod's contents into your BepInEx/plugins folder or use a mod manager.
Compatibility
This mod clones the vanilla Torch item to create a new, separate item - it does not modify or overwrite the vanilla torch, so it should be compatible with other mods that don't specifically touch the same item ID.
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:
