README

Description

NoWeaponDust is a mod for Valheim that aims to enhance the player's experience by providing options to remove the visual effects (VFX) seen using your weapon when attacking. Specifically, by default it disables the default "dust" effects from weapon attack triggers, with further options to remove additional effects at different points in the attack cycle.

Client Only Mod

Features

RemoveTriggerEffects: Enables removal of dust effects triggered by weapon attacks, providing a cleaner combat visual experience. Most noticeable when using Sledges.
RemoveHitTerrainEffects: Allows for the disabling of dust effects when weapons hit terrain, keeping the battlefield less cluttered.
RemoveHitEffects: Offers the option to remove dust effects upon hitting, focusing on the impact without additional VFX distractions.
RemoveStartEffects: Permits the elimination of initial attack effects, streamlining the visual feedback of combat actions.

Compatibility

Designed to be compatible with most other mods. However, mods that significantly alter creature death mechanics may conflict (not tested with many mods). Though should be more compatible than the other alternative instant loot mods.
