Rocknet Valheim — QoL Modpack

The client-side mod set for the Rocknet Valheim server. Install this pack and you can connect; the versions in it are pinned to exactly what the server runs.

You need all of it. Valheim refuses a connection when the client and server mod sets disagree, and a version mismatch looks the same as the server being down. Install the pack as a whole rather than picking mods out of it.

Installing

1. Install r2modman or Gale.
2. Create a Valheim profile.
3. Search for RocknetValheimQoL, install it, and launch Valheim from the mod manager — not from Steam. Launching from Steam starts vanilla, which then fails to connect.

When the pack updates

Your mod manager will show an update. Take it before your next session. The server and this pack are bumped together, so an outdated client is refused at connect.

What's in it

Quality-of-life and anti-tedium only — no content mods. Nothing here adds biomes, magic, loot systems or progression changes; the game is still vanilla Valheim, with less busywork.

• Less walking back and forth — CraftFromChests, MassFarming, Venture Area Repair, ItemStacksItemWeights, ExtraSlots
• Fewer stalemates — JustSleep (no need for every player in a bed)
• Smaller irritations — RecipePinner, BetterSplitDialog, No Unlock Spam, Venture Farm Grid, MyLittleUI
• Under the hood — ValheimCommunityPatch (community bugfixes), AsyncSave (removes the world-save stutter), ConfigurationManager (F1 to tune settings), Server devcommands

The remaining entries (Jotunn, YamlDotNet, JsonDotNET, ConditionalConfigSync) are libraries the mods above depend on.

Ore through portals

Not a mod — the server runs with the portals casual world modifier, so ore and metal go through portals. That is the single biggest change to how the server plays.
