New Server Config & Version Control
Nobody will able to join any V+ server's without the exact same mod version AND mod configuration!
The server and every user that wants to join must have the exact same Configuration file settings.
This is intentional and you can turn off only the option to enforce the same client configuration as the server.
People will still need v+ installed from now onwards to play on v+ servers, even without enforced configuration.
THIS HAS BEEN CHANGED IN 0.7B+ !
enforceConfiguration=true
; enforce every user trying to join your game or server to have the same mod configuration.
; NOTE: if people want to join your server with a custom configuration, they need to set this setting to false as well.
enforceMod=true
; enforce every user to atleast have the mod installed when connecting to the server
; turn this off to remove version restrictions from your client and from your server
; if you turn this off you can join vanilla servers, if you turn this off you cannot join modded servers with this enabled or enforceConfiguration enabled.
; this setting overwrites enforceConfiguration
Changelog
-
New Server and Configuration version control.
After this release you are also no longer able to join any V+ server's without the exact same mod version AND mod configuration.
The server and every user that wants to join must have the exact same Configuration file settings. -
Refactored AEM, ABM into their own proper respective classes with a clear structure.
This should result in a much more stable and error proof enviroment. -
AEM now drops all items from a Container before placing it with the modified new position/rotation.
This should fix the issue of loosing items in containers when moving them -
AEM & ABM now show user UI indicators when they are running.
Example : https://imgur.com/gex5KIy -
AEM & ABM now both provide options to increase and decrease rotation speeds.
Use numpad plus and minus to either increase or decrease the speeds, press SHIFT in addition to raise/lower by 10 instead of 1. -
The option to disable weather damage now properly prevents weather damage instead of every damage to buildings.
-
Food configuration related issues are all resolved.
-
Default values have been adjusted to properly represent the games default values.
There has also been added a valheim_plus_default.cfg to have a reference when loading settings -
Added stamina jump usage configuration
About Game Updates
Game updates are unlikely to do more than partially break ValheimPlus. In case you encounter any issues, use Steam's verify integrity feature- wait for it to download/update all files and then simply unpack the valheim_Data folder from the downloaded package into your game folder again. This should resolve any issues related.
About Client Installation
Download the .zip file and extract it into your game root folder. (Example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Valheim")

About Sever Installation
If you want to host a server, you can repeat the usual process of installing the mod just like you would do for your game except that you have to rename the folder valheim_Data to valheim_server_Data before unpacking/moving the files to the server directory.
Please be aware that EVERY client(user) that connects needs to have the mod installed to have everything working as intended, in addition to any version after 0.7 of Valheim Plus it will prevent anyone not having the mod from joining modded servers. It will also prevent modded clients from joining unmodded servers.
