Seasonal Content Unlocked
Overview
Seasonal Content Unlocked is a lightweight client-side Valheim mod that makes existing seasonal content permanently available outside of its original event periods.
This mod does not add, replace, or modify any game assets, mechanics, features, or functionality. Instead, it simply removes the seasonal restrictions applied to content that is already present within Valheim, allowing players to craft and use seasonal items whenever they choose.
All restored seasonal content can be individually enabled or disabled through the configuration file, giving players full control over which seasonal features are available in their world.

Sup
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:
