Features

  • Wooden boat hull, cloth wings, glowing Surtling core, and a carved propeller.
  • Five seats: one pilot and four passengers.
  • Four wagon wheels with suspension, steering, brakes, and ground reverse.
  • Full loops, barrel rolls, and rudder control.
  • Throttle stays set while someone remains seated or standing on deck. When

everyone leaves, power cuts out and the plane slows and descends.

  • A normal wooden chest's 10 storage slots. Cargo saves with the plane and

drops when you deliberately dismantle it.

  • An indestructible hull and unlimited core power. Collisions still apply;

hammer dismantling remains available. The hull floats for water landings.

Requirements

Install these on every player's computer and on the server:

| Dependency | Tested version | Download and setup |

| --- | --- | --- |

| BepInExPack Valheim | 5.4.2351 | BepInExPack Valheim |

| Jötunn, the Valheim Library | 2.30.2 | Jötunn |

| Surtling Skyfarer | 0.1.5 | GitHub releases |

Use the same Skyfarer version on all clients and the server. This release was

tested against Valheim l-1.0.16 / Unity 6000.0.75f1.

The Skyfarer download contains the mod itself. Install BepInEx and Jötunn

separately; their files are not bundled. The package manifest declares both

dependencies-compatible mod managers.

Installation

Manual installation

  • Close Valheim, or stop the dedicated server.
  • Install BepInExPack Valheim using its instructions for your operating

system. Launch once through BepInEx so its folders are created, then close it.

  • Install Jötunn into the active BepInEx/plugins folder.
  • Download SurtlingSkyfarer-0.1.5.zip from

Releases.

  • Extract its BepInEx folder into the game or server folder. The mod DLL

should end up at:

BepInEx/plugins/Skyfarer/Wise.Skyfarer.dll

  • Launch through your normal BepInEx-enabled method. On Linux, follow the

BepInEx pack's game or dedicated-server launcher instructions.

If you download the standalone DLL instead, put it in the same folder above.

Keep one copy of Wise.Skyfarer.dll in your active plugin tree.

Mod-manager profiles

Install the two dependencies in your Valheim profile, then import the release

ZIP using the manager's local-mod import option. If local import is unavailable,

open the profile folder and copy the DLL into its BepInEx/plugins/Skyfarer

folder. Start the game through that modded profile.

Dedicated servers and AMP

The server needs all three components too. Stop it, install or enable its

BepInEx setup, and upload Jötunn and Skyfarer into its active

BepInEx/plugins folder. In AMP, use the instance's File Manager and restart

through its BepInEx-enabled launch method. The same Skyfarer DLL is used by

Windows and Linux clients and servers.

Updating an existing installation

Stop the server and close each player's game. Replace the existing

Wise.Skyfarer.dll, then restart everyone on the same version. Updating from

0.1.2, 0.1.3, or 0.1.4 to 0.1.5 does not require reinstalling BepInEx or Jötunn

when the tested versions above are already installed. Existing aircraft gain

the cargo chest when loaded.

Build the plane

Equip a hammer, stand near a workbench, and open Transport. Look for

Surtling Skyfarer, or type Skyfarer into the hammer menu's search field.

Your character must discover the recipe materials first.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. 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.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. 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.
