AzuDevMod
Important: This mod is specifically designed to assist with issues related
to ZNetScene.RemoveObjects, UnpatchAll, AssetBundle, and prefab loading errors. It's not intended for casual
play. Install it primarily if you're facing challenges in these areas (then remove after you found your issue).
Note: While this mod is mainly for the client side, you can install it on a server to access logs there. However, most issues it addresses are likely to occur on clients running the same set of mods.
Credit where credit is due: This mod builds upon Blaxxun's DevMod(s), initially available on the OdinPlus discord.
Her versions that probably do more than this are private so I am not sure if something better is out there.
While Blaxxun's work primarily addressed ZNetScene/ZNetView/GameObject destruction and UnpatchAll issues, I've
unified and
enhanced its functionalities as well as made it available on TS. Now, it not only offers clearer error outputs (like
specifying mod & bundle names) but
also introduces AssetBundle and prefab loading features from my side.
Please note that this doesn't mask the problems or "fix" them like ZnetScene RemoveObjects SpamKiller by sbtoonz. It's meant to find the issues and have them reported. His mod is good if you wish to use the mods and the author hasn't or doesn't want to fix the issues. Or, whatever the reasons may be. I'm not here to judge.
AzuDevMod offers specialized debugging tools related to asset loading in Valheim and corrects GameObject destruction processes. It serves both mod developers and users:
-
For Mod Developers:
- Debug asset or assetbundle loading issues more efficiently.
- Got a lot of prefabs? It will tell you which you're attempting to load that doesn't exist in the bundle.
- Got a lot of bundles? It will tell you which you're attempting to load that doesn't exist in your mod.
- Just have fat fingers and typed wrong? It will print the bundle and prefab information you're attempting to load. Helping you identify the issue faster.
- Debug issues related to GameObject destruction. It will tell you what is and isn't registered in the ZNetScene or being destroyed properly.
- Debug asset or assetbundle loading issues more efficiently.
-
For Users:
- Debug common errors from mods, especially those that arise from improper (or absent) object registrations in
Valheim's ZNetScene, or from mods that call
UnpatchAllduring game shutdown. This helps to prevent the notoriousZNetScene.RemoveObjectserror spam and losing data due to UnpatchAll being called inside of mods ( without specifying a particular mod GUID). So you can report the issue to the mod developer and help them fix it.
