Build Camera
Adds a build camera to make building easier, to simplify getting the right perspective so that you can see the snap point. No more scaffolding.Usage:
- Equip your hammer,
- Go within build range of a build station (e.g. a workbench),
- Press B (default - can be changed in config) to activate the build camera.
- The camera is now disconnected from your avatar. Look around and move as usual (e.g. using mouse and keyboard); use jump (Space) to go up and stealth (Control) to go down. Hold run (Shift) to move the camera faster.
- Build (left click) and choose items to build (right click) as usual.
Other details:
- Also works with the hoe and the cultivator.
- The camera must stay within the build area, although the build area is configurable with Camera_Range_Multiplier.
- Deactivate build mode by unequipping the hammer or pressing B or R (the keybind for "hide" weapons).
Installation:
- Install BepInEx for Valheim
- Place
Build Camera.dllin your BepInEx plugins directory, like this:Steam\steamapps\common\Valheim\BepInEx\plugins\Build Camera.dll.
Configuration:
Start the game with the plugin installed, then edit the file \BepInEx\config\Build Camera.cfg. There are several configurable options:
- Toggle_build_mode hotkey
- Camera_Move_Speed_Multiplier
- Camera_Range_Multiplier
- Move_With_Respect_To_World
- Verbose_Logging
Future Improvements:
- Hold middle mouse (configurable) while pointing at a piece to rotate about it.
