To install Valheim mods manually, download whichever file you like, and place it in \BepInEx\plugins.

You will be presented with two options on how to download the mod: manual or via Vortex. Head to the Nexus game page and pick up something of your liking. We are finally up to the good part, and it’s time to download and install some mods. When done, start the game via Vortex instead of Steam. Select Valheim and then specify its install folder(for example C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ Valheim). When you run it, the software will detect which games installed on your PC can be managed.

Speaking of Vortex, it is recommended that you use it when installing mods.

If you do not want to use this software, the page has detailed steps on how to apply the new DDLs yourself. It is highly advised to use Vortex in order to install these files as the mod manager creates its own temp folder and does not override any of the game’s original DLLs.

Modding is not officially supported by the developers, so make a backup before you start messing around with the game.

Backup your saved files: the first and most important step.
