About this mod Author’s original text
G3A3
One mod instead of many for Valheim: a harder and more rewarding world, longer days, more food and less routine at the base. Optimized, and the server's settings reach every player.
Everything is optional. Each feature has its own switch and numbers in the config, so every server sets its own play style.
Goals
- Challenge with reward. Difficulty presets with yellow, red and purple stars (up to 15), stronger bosses, more loot, Forge of Potential idols, class amulets with abilities.
- Less routine. Crafting, building and planting from nearby chests, auto-refill of smelters and ballistas, row planting, area repair.
- One package, in sync. Host, dedicated server and players play by the same rules.

Config
BepInEx/config/g3a3.g3a3.cfg, sections grouped into nine categories (e.g. [1 Сложность | Difficulty]), every line described in English and Russian. The server's values apply to all players; personal ones (keys, hints, timers, HUD, achievements) stay with each player. Edit with the game closed, then rejoin (restart a dedicated server).
Requirements
BepInExPack Valheim and Jötunn. The server and every player need the same G3A3 version.

Один мод вместо многих для Valheim: мир сложне
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:
