Installation

If you are updating this modpack from a previous version, pay close attention to the mods that were removed/replaced because Thunderstore will not automatically remove/replace them.
For an easier time updating, create a new mod-profile in your mod manager and redownload the pack. Your worlds and characters will not be deleted.
There is no need to remove Deprecated mods, they are still important.
I do not recommend updating individual mods until they are updated within the modpack. Updating mods will break them or even prevent the game from launching.
**If your game won't load or you see lots of red errors, this is the number one reason! Number 2 reason is you MUST downgrade Valheim to Pre-bog witch update. See below.

Step 0: Downgrade Valheim to Pre-Bog-Witch update version 0.28.21!
a. In Steam, go to Games>View Game Library.
b. Find Valheim in the list and right click it.
c. Click Properties from context menu.
d. Click Betas in sidebar.
e. Click dropdown menu next to Beta Participation.
f. Select default_prebw - Latest stable build before Bog Witch.

Mod Manager (Preferred)

  1. Install JTQcore and all dependencies.
  2. Start the game. This will copy all config files to the correct place.
  3. Exit the game and re-start to reload the config changes.
  4. Start a new character and a new world. Joining unmodded worlds or other modpack worlds is not recommended.

Manual

  1. Download and move the modpack and all dependencies to your Bepinex Plugins folder.
  2. Start the game. This will copy all config files to the correct place. Exit the game.
  3. Unzip the modpack and move the config and plugins folder to your Bepinex folder. When asked, overwrite the existing files.
  4. Start the game. Start a new character and a new world. Joining unmodded worlds or other modpack worlds is not recommended.

Server

  2. Navigate to your Valheim profile folder. If you are using mod-manager, Click Settings>Browse profile folder.
