Here is a complete list of mods that should be copied manually to the AzuAntiCheat_Whitelist folder as well as non-admin client:
Client modpack:
- Azumatt-AzuAntiCheat

- Smoothbrain-ServerCharacters
Don't forget to copy these to the AzuAntiCheat_Greylist folder:

The Admin modpack would contain the aforementioned mods plus:
- Azumatt-CameraThingy

ConfigWatcher should be copied to the patches folder and not plugins on the server.
Three of the mods can use discord webhooks: DiscordConnector, AzuAntiCheat, ServerCharacters.
ADDING MODS TO THIS MODPACK
Valheim is a client authoritative game, this means that in a multiplayer setting most mods will have to be installed on the clients, the purpose of the server is to work as a relay and sync the clients.
What types of mods should be installed on the server:
- If a mod has version checking - everyone or no one, does not work if installed only on one side
- If a mod syncs configs and you want all clients to use the same config
- Server only mod
- Admin mods – some of them require to be installed on the server too
All the other mods are client-only.
There are some mods that do not sync configs but have functionality that can easily ruin the game!
Such mods should be avoided in multiplayer, they’re intended to be used in single-player only.
Server admins can use any mods they want, except in the case when the mod has version checking and has to be installed everywhere.
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:
