Building from source
To build you need Windows, the .NET SDK 8 or newer (with the .NET Framework 4.8 developer pack), Valheim and BepInEx. The easiest way to get BepInEx is to install BepInExPack_Valheim in a Thunderstore Mod Manager profile.
git clone https://github.com/JevMods/JevIntroSkip.git
cd JevIntroSkip
dotnet build src/JevIntroSkip -c Release
Then copy src/JevIntroSkip/bin/Release/JevIntroSkip.dll into BepInEx/plugins.
The build looks for Valheim through Steam and for BepInEx in the Default profile of the Thunderstore Mod Manager. If yours live elsewhere, pass the paths:
dotnet build src/JevIntroSkip -c Release -p:ValheimDir="D:\Games\Valheim" -p:BepInExDir="D:\Games\Valheim\BepInEx"
You can also set the VALHEIM_INSTALL environment variable. With no Valheim install at all, point ManagedDir at the valheim_server_Data/Managed folder of the free Valheim Dedicated Server (Steam app 896660). The GitHub workflow does exactly that.
Notes
- Client-side: only the player who wants the skips needs to install it.
