RavenMap

A lightweight shared map for Valheim with useful automatic pins and local filters for every player.

This is the first public test release, so bugs may occur.

Install

RavenMap must be installed on the server and every client.

1. Install BepInExPack Valheim 5.4.2333.
2. Create BepInEx/plugins/RavenMap and extract all five archive files into it.
3. Start the game once to create BepInEx/config/dragonmotion.ravenmap.cfg.

RavenMap is not compatible with other shared-map or automatic-pin mods, including Huginn Map and One Map To Rule Them All.

Features

• Shared normal fog of war and automatic pins.
• Unified colorful map icons with dark outlines for vanilla markers, Valheim locations, RavenMap pins, and supported More World Locations traders and ports. Six local size controls match the six filter groups: Valheim, deposits, pickables, dungeons, other RavenMap marks, and supported world locations.
• Real mineable resource detection for vanilla, Balrond Amazing Nature, and compatible modded deposits.
• Separate pins and biome filters for wild berries, mushrooms, herbs, and plants. Renewable sources are crossed after harvest and restored by the game's real respawn event; one-shot or physically destroyed sources are removed.
• Vanilla and supported modded dungeon pins, automatic cleared crosses, and a shared manual override (Left Alt + left-click; change ManualToggleModifier).
• Configurable removal of depleted resource pins.
• Named portals, ships, and carts.
• Duplicate protection for RavenMap, vanilla, and cartography-table pins.
• Removed content mods no longer leave ghost pins or raw localization tags. The server safely retires exact missing sources, while clients with different mod lists hide unsupported shared pins locally.
• Draggable and scrollable local filters, saved separately for each player and world.
• Russian or English UI, matching the game's language.

Highlights and X-ray

Pulse smoothly highlights a complete vein. Sweep sends a soft scanning wave that enters before one mesh edge and leaves beyond the other. Pulse and Sweep have separate color, intensity, interval, and timing settings; Sweep also has configurable speed, width, and softness.

HighlightPickables optionally applies the selected Pulse or Sweep to nearby available berries, mushrooms, and plants. It respects cutout and transparent foliage, handles nearby groups fairly, and uses the same controls as ore. The setting is local and disabled by default.

XrayEnabled is the local master switch and is disabled by default. While it is enabled, F4 only shows or hides X-ray temporarily and does not change the config. Change or disable the key with XrayToggleKey. X-ray reveals only already discovered, loaded veins inside its radius.

Reset and diagnostics

The host or a server administrator can remove shared automatic pins for rediscovery with:

ravenmap resetpins confirm

This keeps shared fog, vanilla pins, and character map data. If a resource or dungeon state looks wrong, enable ShowStateOnMap or DetailedLogging in [10 - Diagnostics].

Only loaded objects can be discovered or updated. Dungeon completion uses the enemies and chests Valheim exposes while the interior is loaded. Visual effects use the bundled Windows shader; if it is unavailable, map features continue without them.

RavenMap 1.8.4 targets Valheim 0.221.12, Steam build 21981559, Unity 6000.0.61f1, and BepInEx 5.4.23.3.
