Introduction

Support Me!

Thank you to everyone who have used my mods during early access. All of your feedback and support has made the hundreds of hours sunk into these projects worth it. Even though modding has never really paid out in cash it has rewarded me with friends, community, and even more fun times! To all of you who have bought me coffees over the years, I am extremely grateful for your kindness!

If you would like to keep supporting the development and maintenance of my mods you can buy me a coffee through the image link below.

Looking for a Valhiem server? I have partnered with Survival Servers to get you 25% off with the code `VALHEIM25`! Order through the link by clicking on the image below and I will get a portion of the proceeds. You get a server to play with your friends and I can go buy some more of that sweet sweet coffee to keep the mods working!

Features

Allows you to make items that usually sink the ability to float on water (or tar), and vice versa. To make items sink add their prefab names to the "SinkingItems". To make items float toggle the following categories you want, or add the specific item prefab names to the "FloatingItems" config list:

  • FloatEverything: Floats everything except for items listed in the "SinkingItems" config
  • FloatTrophies: Will add the floating ability to any item that contains "trophy" in it's prefab name
  • FloatMeat: Will add the floating ability to any item that contains "meat" in it's prefab name
  • FloatHides: Will add the floating ability to the different hides and fabrics
  • FloatGearAndCraftable: Will add the floating ability to any item that contains a recipe (can be crafted by a player), and other gear like items bought from Haldor and meads
  • FloatTreasure: Will add the floating ability to Coins, Ruby, Amber, AmberPearl, and SilverNecklace

If an item is included in the "SinkingItems" list it will be excluded from automatic item discovery when turning on the other config toggles. The mod defaults will add SerpentScale to the "FloatingItems" list, and will add BronzeNails and IronNails to the "SinkingItems" list.

Installation

This mod needs to be on all clients to work properly. Config Syncing is included with Jotunn. Install on the server to enforce the same mod configuration for all players. Live changes to the configurations should take immediate effect but items already on the ground will not update until reloaded or picked up.

Contributing

All issues can be reported on Discord or on the project Github. To report issues please be as specific as possible and provide the following:

  1. Mod name and version with the issue.
  2. The Bepinex\Logoutput.log file when the issue occurred (Or at least a list of all other mods being used)

All feedback, ideas, and requests are welcome! You can message me at my discord Venture Gaming.
