BetterCrossbows
Enhanced crossbow mechanics for Valheim with configurable reload times, movement freedom, and stamina management. Features ServerSync for multiplayer compatibility.Changelog
[1.1.0] - 2026-09-09
Changed
- Updated for Valheim 1.0 (requires BepInExPack Valheim 5.4.2350 or newer)
- Bundled ServerSync updated to v1.20, recompiled for Valheim 1.0.
- Renamed the Reload While Moving setting to Reload While Running, which is what it actually controls. The old entry is left behind in existing config files and the new one starts at its default, so re-apply it if you had changed it.
Fixed
- Crossbow reload threw on Valheim 1.0. The reload queue and equipped-item lookups reached for members that are not public in the shipped game, which threw as soon as a crossbow was equipped.
- Changing any setting in-game logged an error and stopped the change syncing to other players.
