[@ctimerun3693]

I like the idea of adding more and a greater variety of creatures, but it's a little disappointing that most of the mods in this video that do that use higher-res textures than the base game. Noticed the same problem with a couple of the building mods. It makes the modded assets stick out, which I suppose might have been the intention.

[@xXPodgodXx]

i was thinking the exact same thing i wish it was matching art styles then id 100% add them

[@MikaelGuggenheim]

It's because most mods that add stuff to the game use already made graphics. Either you use free stuff or you buy some cheap ones. Coding is usually the stronger part of a modder's gift. Not saying they can't make graphics, but that is usually not the focus. More people that can do great models should offer their help with mods and we'd see a lot better mods at the end, but good luck finding them doing it for free.

Just to let you know, we link this video when people come into our stream, its amazing and you deserve all the praise for putting this combo of mods together!

[@Andrewtr6]

I started playing last month and have been enjoying it. It could definitely use some quality-of-life updates. Some of these mods fit in better with the base game than others. Personally, I would want to preserve the Norse feel more and plants like bamboo, rice, corn, and potatoes don't fit that. Bamboo is from Asia and the other crops are from the Americas (ie not native to Europe). Looking at the list of crops in Valheim turnips, carrots, onions, blueberries, raspberries, and cloudberries are all plants "Vikings" had access to. Some other crops I found that the Norse would have eaten are pears, cherries, plums, blackberries, and strawberries (according to Google). I would say the same thing about animals. Cows, sheep, goats, horses, hens, and ducks would make sense.

[@colorblockpoprocks6973]

i figured potatoes would be fine

[@christianevald]

Wild strawberries, just to be specific. Modern strawberries are actually the result of a failed hybrid grown in France during the 18th centaury where they wanted bigger berries and therefor crossbred Fragaria virginiana(from north america) with Fragaria chiloensis (from Chile). It's considered a fail since, although the berries did get larger, they also lost their flavour profile.

[@christianevald]

@@colorblockpoprocks6973 Not really. Potatoes originate from South America and wasn't discovered by Europeans until 1530 AD and commonly used first 150 years after that. The viking period in the north died out around 1100 AD and although there are proof that vikings discovered north America, less evidence can be pointed at them finding south America as well.

[@Tewaz1]

Thank you so much for this video! I’m using a few of the mods listed here, but was completely unaware of some of the others and am so excited to try them out after seeing them in action!

[@bashfulbrit]

I know you've addressed the time it's been out already, but I would also like to point out that Mistlands was the one biome they didn't have an idea for when they were making it. Considering the overwhelming success and attention on bug fixes being priority for a small team, I would say Mistlands came out within a fairly reasonable time frame. They also know what they want to do with Deep North and Ashlands already from what I've heard on the grapevine, so I doubt it will be anywhere near as long as Mistlands took!

[@YahkoKun]

The combination of elements from Minecraft, Creativerse, Lostark, Stardew Valley, WoW is insanely amazing. But then its not Valheim anymore. I think the simplicity of the game is what makes it Valheim. It surely can use an update to tweak elements like the Ocean, the excessive storage of inventory - which might had been just a secondary focus of the game.

[@Telesgoooo]

It just adds the ability to craft your own valheim, I love the idea.

[@InfernosReaper]

Yeah, implementing *some* is fine and I'd even say recommended, like the boat-maker one, mostly for the piers, farmable dirt blocks, and actual ladders Most of these are a tad too bloated for my taste, while not really bringing that much that's really that compelling to the table. A kajillion new weapons? Meh. Random monsters? Eh... Smoke weed everyday? Nah, I'm good, brah. More random animals? Looks okay, I guess, but hard to care, because livestock is already kind of a chore. Rafts? Yes please, but not even for the custom boats. Added slots for armor and a misc items? Most definitely want that, cause I prefer the 1-8 to be for weapons, shields, and tools.

[@llGreyll.]

@@InfernosReaper I would love for you people to explain to me how more content is bad? A dozen new weapons is great, a dozen new enemies is great, everything you’re saying is “bloated” is great. It’s more content and things to do, how in any regard is that a negative? You can always choose to not use weapons/armor or to not visit new biomes, etc.

[@InfernosReaper]

@@llGreyll. Because after a certain point, it gets to be a chore to keep up with? Thought that was kinda obvious. Nothing like all that added scrolling time to wade through to stuff you don't want to mess with to get to the stuff you do. Plus the added system resources needed for the game do add up the more crap ya pile on. If you're not gonna really use it, why even have it?

[@llGreyll.]

[@Jalbesbe]

It didn't take 3 years for Mistlands. There were many other updates in those three years. The main consumer of time is when they were first porting it to console, and each update them having to make it work with consoles which slows progression so much. Also the Ashlands is nothing like Helheim's depiction. You are thinking of Muspelheim (Múspell) which is a burning hellish landscape. Niflheim (or Helhiem) is a cold and dead place ruled by Hel. Sea serpents do not spawn at random, they have very specific spawner zones where a spawner can well spawn. It is always a good idea to mark on your map where you see Serpents or Leviathans as they will only spawn in that area. If you make a newer world they did decrease the amount of serpent spawners in worlds sadly, due to the fact they used to spawn way too much, you'd go serpent hunting and while dealing with one you'd run into another. Not a terrible thing when you're trying to kill them, but if you're just exploring and traveling, or under geared it makes the ocean impossible to travel.

[@dabnotic]

Leviathans are 1 time spawns, no need to mark them

[@godr1k651]

[@justthere845]

Wasn't the porting done by a different company. Pretty sure they outsourced that to someone else

[@dabnotic]

@@justthere845 yeah it was ported by different studios. People just really like to defend iron gate cause they are indie. But they did abandon their roadmap and take years for mistlands. In between launch and mistlands we got hearth and home and the ice cave shit, nothing special, besides 2 OK armor sets and some build ables.

You can run it if you want, I just haven't tested it. • Added FloorsAreRoofs - Made it so the stuff on the lower deck of my ValheimRaft ship can be used. • Added VALKEA by The_Bes_Decree - Someone I'm playing with wanted it to make some finer details on the ValheimRaft ship. I devmoded the hammer in because the cost of it is just stupid. • The modded-in animals have mod-proprietary hides that are only good for making rugs. I changed them in the configs so they're either Leather Scraps or Deer Hide so I can actually use them for stuff. I can go over how I did it if anyone asks. Honestly, there's so much wrong with Haunted Oath's modlist it's like he didn't even test it. I can't believe the comments aren't full of people pointing out the issues I mentioned above.

I.E. does it crash often, is it laggy (a little is fine but if like half the game play is lag that's just butt), and also if those 2 points are fine then how is multiplayer in the same regards? As well as how much of these would need to be server side. On my server I have done quite a bit of client only modding and only 3 server side mods so if my friends wanted to play they don't have to download the whole of the internet. In the end honestly I love the video and I now have a whole host of new mods I really want. On the other hand however I really don't want to knee cap myself and do a bunch of debugging trying to figure out what mods don't like each other and the rigmarole of finding the lag culprits. I would also like to shoutout a few mods I use that really enhanced my gameplay but didn't see. - Under the Radar - by Kits Bitz is great it adds icons to your map and mini map in a radius around you showing things like bee hives, buildings, fish, enemies and so on its great if you don't like running through an area 30 times before finding that one crypt you were looking for. - Plant Easily - by Advize the same creator of plant everything this mod works like the grid one but it has several more features that compliment plant everything very well. - Unrestricted Portals - by JNiena this removes the restrictions from the portals so you can transport those precious items because if anyone who is like me I absolutely hate mechanics were the only reason is to slow you down to extend gameplay and not add any actual value to the game. (And also have no config for those like me who would choose to just turn it off or for others who may want to allow somethings and not others.) - XPortal - by SpikeHimself now I stated this before I found this mod is the only way I could think of to have only one portal go to any location was to place a marker on your map if you couldn't remember portal tags with the name and type that into your portal every time you wanted to go to it. This mod basically does that but with a convenient drop down list to pick from but as portals are not locked to a player on multiplayer you can go to anyone's portals so we started tagging our own personal portals with our names to differentiate them. - Willybach's HD Valheim - HD Map in Vanilla Style - by Willybach and Panoc this one overhauls the visuals of the game and just breaths new life into it getting rid of a lot of those pixelated lazy textures. Now I know some people like them and good on ya I don't believe graphics makes the game but it sure is nice when it does look pretty. - First person view - CameraMod - by Kailen_ honestly I believe every survival builder should have a first person mode this allows you to scroll all the way in to go to first person its not perfect but it really changes the whole experience of the game. and last - Enhanced BepInEx Configuration Manager - by jettlife21 anyone who has a bunch of mods this is for you it makes it WAY more convenient to edit configs and most can be changed in game without needing to restart to see the effect is super handy and I didn't know about it right away I just happen to come across it while ready someone's mod page. I have all these mods and then some and they all work with no problems even while on my dedicated server. Bla bla bla long time later didn't read lol. Again I loved the video but some more info would be so helpful especially when you start accumulating a lot of mods like that and also as several others have stated a collections link would also be a nice touch. Thanks for the vid cant wait for the next defiantly liked and subbed.

Valheim is perfect the way it is

[@bradcarter1790]

So I recently wanted to start modding Valheim and if this list is what a complete Valheim game looks like, have you actually tried all these mods together to see if they function because that looks like a bug fueled mess with SO MANY mods but also looks absolutely amazing if they function together.

[@noahodum9737]

Most mods run on Valheim+ or Jotunn which is a mod compiler, which ultimately means most will work simultaneously unless otherwise stated by the mod developer (use at own risk) I run about 15 mods for QoL stuff (xportal, plant everything, planbuild, build camera, etc) simultaneously that don't impact eachother heavily. Occasionally a mod will break though, and you'll have to turn them all of and test them one by one to see which one causes the problem. Usually updates come in about a week of it breaking though so nbd. I haven't tested any game-changing stuff though. I would add the dual wield mod personally so that daggers are actually something that would make sense to use, and axes as well, but none of the other mob-adding ones or biome changing ones would I add personally

Beautiful mods. Quick question. Can you stack up all these mods at the same time?

[@90Ferd]

UP: please tell me if you stack all of them will it kill your game or gets massive FPS drops, so basically do they interfere with eachother

[@seabhacgra517]

What an amazing video! I had come across some of the mods before but had never seen them in action! It is great that you took the care to keep the game more balanced with all the added abilities!

[@jaedencew]

Thanks for this. I am 1400 hours into Valheim and it's time to do a run like this. Love all your videos man. Do you have a Twitch Stream or anything else people could watch or do you just do videos?

[@frostxr]

How did you do it? That's a ton of playtime, for what this game offers.

[@jaedencew]

@@frostxr I finished the game a couple times and then took a break for elden Ring and other games. Came back when a friend convinced me to try single life. That took a while to complete. Then I made a server for us to play together single life. Then Mistlands came out, and I started from scratch there. The game is just so peaceful but challenging at the same time. Its fun to start a new world and find where everything is. Now I'm dipping into mods. I just a sngle lfe playthrough with Epic Loot, which was fantastic. Now I'm doing a run with the Journey to Valhalla mod. There's just something meditative about chopping wood, trying to get better at building, finding a new spot for a base, sailing.

[@frostxr]

@@jaedencew I see. I haven't really played it solo. Was so much fun with friends. But then we all got bored 1 by 1. Building was fun but long or hard to build your visions . I did about 130 hours. I can't believe you found ways to play for over 1k hours. The only game ie ever played that much was WoW. I will eventually play some more. Maybe with mods too. Hopefully they are easy to use.

[@babytiny5807]

@@frostxr I also can't comprehend this amount of hours in the game, the game is absolutely infuriating to me at times and I think I would actually harm myself by playing this game for 1000 hours lol. Definitely burst a few blood vessels in my 72 hours but still can't seem to put it down

[@frostxr]

@@babytiny5807 I made it to 128 hours if game play. But also most with friends. Hen friends not around,it isn't that fun. I love to build, but took bro much work and patience . Still would go back to play with new areas .

Very interesting. My PC has a hard enough time playing vanilla with mid to low settings already, so doubt I could get away with any of the visual stuff, but I may try out the QOL mods. Thanks for the showcase!

some of the mods that he mentioned like magic heim (or jewel heim) are already mod packs of over 70 mods.

[@thombly5772]

Should've been is kinda strong wording for a game in early access, also people are saying its got an incredibly slow development cycle, but so many other early access games have been going for way longer. I'd love it if they would finish it quickly, but I definitely prefer devs who take their time for good reasons... No idea if these devs are doing that, but it'd be nice if they were.

[@BloodwolfTico]

Exactly. It SHOULD have been titled... the game that COULD have been... or the game that I EXPECT when complete... Game is still in Early Access ffs.

[@andrewnimmo8010]

I've never tried out any mods for valheim and I've never even heard of any before this vid but most of these look insane, I need to check them out

[@Bromag118]

They started out as just a few dudes making a game for themselves. Once they decided to put it out for others it was cheap. People need to stop expecting the world out of these guys. It's not their fault they accidently made one of the best survival games to date that gained instant popularity. 😂

[@charlesking4551]

Such a great mod list! I might try add most of these to a server and see if it works

[@nickchapple8065]

I really wish I knew how to make these all work in multiplayer so my friend and myself can do all of this!

[@InfernosReaper]

Multiplayer mods is something I'm gonna start working on figuring out soon. I've figured out how to do an unmodded server, so now comes trying to figure out modded...

[@DeadShadowMan]

For multiplayer to work, you both need to have the mods installed, then just launch the server like usual by hosting it in game, that's it

[@InfernosReaper]

@@DeadShadowMan Yeah, it's really easy. Just make sure the server app folder also has the mods.

[@GeezLightning]

Having watched, those are impressive mods for sure, but I don't think they are for me. I've found with more than a few games that you can very easily tip the balance of fun game to boring overload. Lots of impressive work in them though and thank you for putting it together.

[@InfernosReaper]

Honestly, the only ones *I* would bother with are the inventory mod and the custom boats one, maybe the barrels one for some cosmetics. I don't even want the boat one for the boats. Rafts adds the ability to make piers(logpoles that go all the way to the bottom of water), farmable dirt blocks, and actual ladders. The gear and new creatures ones seem like they'd be too much bloat to be fun. I've tried similar things on Minecraft and those tended to end up being too much crap to keep up with and felt like a chore instead of an improvement.

[@riteasrain]

The Plant Everything looks good to me - vines and those illusive blueberries :D And would love to be able to cart metal through portals, but I can live with that.

[@InfernosReaper]

@@riteasrain there are mods for that. My preference is to use Advanced Portals. That adds a few new portals specifically for certain types of metal and below, so there's still that early struggle, but once you're into a later tier, you can harvest lesser materials with ease. My only complaint with it is that the portal for silver and black metal are the same and require Mistlands tier materials to make. There really should be something for Silver and lower.

[@TheJunnutin]

Gotta be careful with that inventory armor mod. If you happen to launch the game w/o the mod activated after having used it, you will lose that inventory forever and have to remake them.
