LootFilterUI

Loot Filter

Tired of your inventory filling up with stones, resin, and greydwarf eyes? Loot Filter lets you choose exactly which items are excluded from auto-pickup — right from an in-game UI.

Features

• In-game filter panel showing every item you have discovered, grouped by category with their icons
• One click to toggle: click an item to exclude it from auto-pickup (marked red with a ✕), click again to re-enable
• Inventory button: a Loot Filter button is added to the top bar of your inventory, next to the Trophies button
• Hotkey: press L to open/close the filter panel anywhere
• Quick on/off: Ctrl+L turns the whole filter on or off (also a button in the panel)
• Category rules: exclude a whole category in one click, including items you haven't found yet
• Keep-up-to amounts: right-click an item to auto-pick it up only until you carry N (e.g. 50 wood)
• Inventory shortcut: Alt + left-click an item in your inventory or a chest to exclude/allow it
• Search and audit: search by name, show only excluded items, and see the excluded count in the title
• Show undiscovered: optionally list items you haven't found yet (greyed out) to pre-filter them
• Configurable: all keybinds and the on/off switch are available in Configuration Manager
• Persistent: your exclusions are saved to the mod config and survive restarts
• Excluded items can still be picked up manually — only auto-pickup is blocked

Usage

1. Open your inventory and click the Loot Filter button in the top bar (or press L)
2. Click any item to exclude it from auto-pickup — it turns red with a ✕ marker
3. Click it again to allow auto-pickup again
4. Right-click an item to set a keep-up-to amount, or use Exclude all on a category header
5. Close the panel (or press Esc) and enjoy a cleaner inventory

Exclusions are stored in BepInEx/config/com.ukie.ValheimLootFilter.cfg and can also be edited there by hand (comma-separated prefab names).

Installation (manual)

1. Install BepInEx and Jötunn
2. Drop ValheimLootFilter.dll into BepInEx/plugins
