Where can I find a mod to increase the map sight/reveal distance? I havent played in forever but I'm sure I used to have one, but I had a quick look on Nexus and couldn't see it.

Took a stab at the Goggles because a friend I play with was asking for this sometime in the last week:

Haven't tried either mod.

ValheimPlus can do this.

From valheim_plus.cfg:

[Map]
; The radius of the map that you explore when moving.
exploreRadius = 100

Pathfinder mod is my choice since it dynamically adjusts radius based on weather, biome, altitude.

Dope thanks everyone, think I'll try Pathfinder, the dynamic stuff sounds cool.

I also used to use an inventory one, I think probably "Equipment and Quick Slots"

Do people have other recommendations for inventory mods?

Whoa that's awesome. Does it have a modifier for sailing? Maybe that's included in the biome adjustments?

While I'm not a fan of how vanilla Valheim does inventory spots (no paper doll) I've had a very bad experience with various quickslot mods and dying. My solution has been to add an extra row of inventory via Valheim+ and forgo a dedicated paper doll / quickslot mod.

I like this one because it's basic AF. I've had many issues with the quick slots mod deleting my poo poo when I die or the mod breaks due to updating.

Anyone know if Valheim+ and Build Camera can be used together? I know it says it's incompatible with V+'s first person mode, but will it work if I don't enable that?

What are we talking about here - does gear on the paper doll have a tendency to get lost or interact poorly with multiple players? (e: Or just what FLIPADELPHIA said, I guess.)

Honestly more inventory slots doesn't seem the most game breaking when weight is usually the more important limiting factor.

Limiting the number of inventory slots doesn't even make sense really. Like you can carry 6 different stacks of ore that weigh 300 pounds but you can't carry 7 different individual plant seeds? Weight should be the only limiting factor.

Was it shortly after release? Equipment and quick slots didn't work on unmodded servers back then, your gear in the new slots would just be deleted. Now, however, it just drops two gravestones - one for your normal inventory and one for your gear. I recently did a playthrough with a few other people and nobody had problems with it the whole time.

They might have fixed it at this point. I last played with that mod combo in may of 22 and it would routinely eat the extra items.

Check for an update, but you don’t necessarily need to re-download the mod. Sometimes they announce it wherever you downloaded it from, sometimes your mod manager (if you’re using one) will let you know.

This is my first patch after mods too, it’s nice when they don’t utterly break your entire mod list (looking at you two, Subnautica and 7Daystodie :mad: )

I've used the current V+ throughout the beta for this patch and the only issue I've run into is the Advanced Editor feature doesn't work on the hexagon doors yet. Everything else seems to work fine.

So you click on a piece, and it knows to try to snap it relative to that piece? Yeah, that seems hugely better than the guessing game it currently does. You’d still need to throw temporary pieces up in order to do certain kinds of offset positioning, like having a log that snaps 1m along, but it’d be great for QoL building stuff.

It's a HUGE upgrade for building overhangs. Bridges, roofs, even flooring will be so much less of a headache.

I was assuming by "Manual" it means that you can cycle through some of the snap points for a piece.

It's really funny how in a game so heavily about boats, building a decent dock is one of the most annoying and awful things to do.

There is a mod for that if you want to be able to do it right now: Snap Points Made Easy

It's an old mod and I've been playing in VR where you can't use keyboard shortcuts so I don't know if it works in the current game version.

The ocean waves in this game during a storm are obscenely cool, what the gently caress. They’re actually reminding me of being on a cruise ship and seeing 20-30ft monster waves off the sides.

Also, my longship got caught in a trough between 2 wave crests, and I’m pretty sure it took damage as the waves tried to fold it in half. I’m not entirely sure, because trying to sail through a storm is a fool’s errand and I’m the perfect fool for it :v:
