A visual world editor for Valheim. Press F6 and build whole maps from above: sculpt mountains, paint biomes, draw roads and rivers, place houses and look inside them floor by floor. Free, instant, and Ctrl+Z undoes everything.
Your world stays normal Valheim. World Edit only changes what you change with it.
Edit together, live
Most world editors are made for one person. World Edit works in multiplayer: you and your friends edit the same world at the same time. You see each other's cursor and brush, name and tool, what they selected and what they just did, and every change shows up for everyone right away. Click a name at the top to fly to them.

Features
- Terrain: raise, lower, smooth, flatten, roughen, terraces and peaks with a round or square brush, or over a whole area at once. Way past Valheim's 8 m limit.
- Landforms: drag out mountains, hills, mesas and craters, or draw ridges, canyons and ramps.
- Biome brush: drag out an area and it becomes another biome. Meadows, Black Forest, Swamp, Mountain, Plains, Mistlands, Ashlands or Deep North. Ground, weather, light, music and creatures change, the height of the ground stays. Trees and rocks can be swapped for the ones of the new biome.
- Paint ground: grass, dirt, paving or farm soil.
- Rivers and lakes with real flowing water, also high up in the hills. Steep parts become waterfalls.
- Paths that adapt: click as many points as you like. A path climbs a hill as far as it's walkable, goes through a real tunnel where it gets too steep and gets a bridge over ravines and water. Dirt, paved, stone, plank and grausten paths.
- Fences, walls, hedges, torches and tree avenues along any line. Click a line later to drag its points or change its type.
- Trees, plants and rocks: forests of one kind or mixes, meadows, groves and flowers. Make and save your own presets.
- Houses and blueprints: every blueprint with a preview picture. A gallery downloads blueprint packs from Thunderstore in game and shows the downloadable builds of valheimians.com with pictures. PlanBuild
