Tamed Creature XP

Persistent experience and progression are the core of this mod. Tamed creatures gain configurable XP from defeated enemies. Boss tames are allowed by default, and the assist option lets a tamed creature that dealt damage receive a share even when the player or another creature lands the final blow. XP and levels are stored with the creature.

Features

• Configurable XP values per defeated vanilla creature, plus optional multipliers for the tamed creature and its victim.
• Configurable cumulative level thresholds. Levels 7 and above can be added in the advanced settings.
• Optional XP, progress, and level-up messages; health regeneration and a short level-up shield can be configured.
• Optional creature status while targeting it.
• Secondary feature: craft a 15-slot manual backpack at the Black Forge. It unlocks at creature level 4. Aim at the equipped tame and press the configured key (P by default). This backpack does not collect dropped loot automatically.
• English/French configuration labels.

Requirements

• Valheim with BepInExPack 5.4.2351 or newer.
• Jötunn 2.30.2 or newer for the craftable creature backpack.

Installation

Install through a Valheim mod manager after the package is published, or place TamedCreatureXP.dll in BepInEx/plugins. For multiplayer, all players should use the same mod version and dependencies.

Configuration

Use Valheim Configuration Manager or edit the BepInEx configuration file. XP is the main feature; backpack settings are optional. Example multiplier format: Wolf=1.2;Lox=0.8. Extra cumulative thresholds use 7=11000;8=15000;9=20000.

Preview status

Version 0.5.7 compiles cleanly. The inventory frame styling and the updated Jötunn registration path need an in-game check before a public release. Please verify XP awards and persistence, backpack crafting/opening, and normal item transfers in your profile.

L’XP et la progression persistante des créatures apprivoisées sont la fonction principale. Les boss apprivoisés sont autorisés par défaut. L’option de participation permet aux créatures apprivoisées ayant infligé des dégâts de recevoir une part d’XP même si le joueur ou un autre compagnon porte le coup fatal. Les valeurs d’XP, multiplicateurs, seuils de niveau, affichages et bonus de niveau se règlent dans la configuration.

Le sac à dos est une fonction secondaire : sac manuel de 15 cases, fabriqué à la Forge noire et débloqué au niveau 4. Il faut viser le compagnon équipé et appuyer sur la touche configurée (P par défaut). Il ne ramasse pas automatiquement le butin au sol.
