About this mod Author’s original text
Time&DayDisplay
Time&DayDisplay is a lightweight Valheim BepInEx plugin that displays the current in-game day and time on screen.
Features
- Displays the current Valheim day and time.

- 12-hour or 24-hour time format.
- Horizontal and vertical position sliders.
- Position can move across the entire screen.
- Position is automatically kept inside the screen edges.
- Separate position sliders for menus, inventory, and the large map.
- Optional hiding while menus are open.
- Adjustable font size.
- Optional day display.
- Toggleable black text outline.
- Adjustable outline size from 1 to 5.
In-Game Font
Time&DayDisplay uses Valheim's actual loaded in-game UI font:
AveriaSerifLibre-Bold
The plugin waits until Valheim has loaded its HUD/UI assets and then applies that font automatically. No external font installation is required.
Text Outline
The display can use a black outline to make the time easier to read against bright or detailed backgrounds.
[Appearance]
OutlineEnabled = true
OutlineSize = 2
- OutlineEnabled = true enables the black outline.
- OutlineEnabled = false disables it.
- OutlineSize supports values from 1 to 5.
BepInEx Configuration Manager can display OutlineSize as a slider.
Position Sliders
The position controls use sliders from 0.0 to 1.0.
Horizontal Position
- 0.0 = far left
- 0.5 = center
- 1.0 = far right
Vertical Position
- 0.0 = top
- 0.5 = center
- 1.0 = bottom
The plugin measures the displayed text and limits the usable movement area automatically, so the clock can reach every edge without going off-screen.
BepInEx Configuration Manager will display these ranged settings as sliders.

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:
