0.1.6 maintenance release

This release refreshes the compatibility and multiplayer stack for Valheim 1.0.12 / network version 40 while keeping the pack's established gameplay direction intact.

Notable fixes and compatibility work

  • EpicLoot 0.14.10 replaces 0.14.4 after the current Valheim input API caused the older enchanting interface to stall after starting an enchant.
  • BoneAppetit 3.3.10 includes current-Valheim fixes for the Chef Hat, Stone Griddle, Oven placement/scale, localization, materials, and logout cleanup.
  • BetterNetworking 1.1.0 uses the Valheim 1.0 compatibility fork with guarded patches, legacy configuration migration, and negotiated compression.
  • MultiUserChest 0.6.2 replaces the temporary compatibility fork with the maintained upstream package.
  • ValheimCommunityPatch 0.28.0 adds dedicated-server diagnostics and optional memory/ZDO fixes. The new optional memory fixes remain at their defaults unless separately enabled by the server operator.

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.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
