Mods — Brandan's Stack

24 pinned packages: magic loot, armory, castles, ships, metal portals, and server QoL.

24 packages Valheim 1.0 Pinned for Brandan's dedicated server. Live deploy stays on gaming.brandan.au; domain strings in copy may say valheim.brandan.au.

On Brandan's server Install with r2modman / Gale (or manual BepInEx) so every client matches the pinned versions below. Missing a required DLL under koumodgp will kick you. Prefer Steam networking — ServerSideMap is incompatible with PlayFab crossplay.

Install order (manual)

  1. Layer 0: BepInExPack_Valheim
  2. Layer 1: Jotunn → JsonDotNET → ConditionalConfigSync
  3. Layer 2: ValheimCommunityPatch, then koumodgp (after DLL folders filled)
  4. Layer 3–6: Content (EpicLoot, Armory, portals…) → building/ships → Crystal QoL → multipliers/UI

Managers resolve deps automatically. Server and clients must match major.minor on Jotunn, EpicLoot, VCP, and content mods.

  • DropMoreLoot × EpicLoot — double loot economy; tune separately.
  • koumodgp ExclusiveCharacter defaults ON — imported chars kicked.
  • Dungeon build lock — only campfire (default) in dungeons; Kingdom/Architect blocked in crypts.
  • ServerSideMap vs PlayFab — use Steam networking.
  • AzuContainerSizes deprecated — plan migration.
