Simple Recycling

Best Valheim Mods

You’ll obviously be spending a lot of time harvesting and gathering different resources in Valheim, but you won’t always want to keep everything. Strangely, though, there’s not actually any way of recycling or even getting rid of items.

Your only option is to simply drop what you don’t want and wait for it to disappear from the server after a few IRL days.

What Valheim really needs is a recycle function, and that’s exactly what ABearCodes’s Simple Recycling mod adds.

It’s a simple menu option from the crafting table that allows you to recycle any item from your inventory and receive 50% of the materials back (though you can adjust the percentage if you prefer). Download link.

Pull From Containers

Your inventory space is only so big, which can make crafting items and building structures around your camp a chore of walking backward and forward from nearby containers to make sure all the necessary materials are equipped.

That’s no longer an issue with this mod from aedenthorn, the same creator behind the awesome clock mod listed earlier.

With it installed, any materials required for a crafting recipe are automatically pulled from nearby containers housing them, making the entire process much snappier. Download link.

Take Me Home

Fang86’s Take Me Home mod will be a controversial pick to the survival purists out there, but if you can discipline yourself to use it sparingly it’s a great addition to the game.

As the name implies, the mod allows you to instantly teleport home from any location on the map. It basically makes every adventure a one-way trip, with the option to zip home at the press of a button.

Of course, the journey of every adventure is a large part of what makes Valheim adventures such fun. But there are also plenty of times you just wish you could quickly return to base without the hassle of a long journey. Download link.

Locator

This mod is an extension of the Locate Merchant mod by purpledxd, which not only pins the location of the merchant after you’ve discovered him but also any other useful points of interest.

For example, a copper deposit, Dragon Eggs, Runestones, etc, are all automatically pinned on your map so that you won’t have to memorize every location.

Of course, you can add custom pins yourself as standard in Valheim, but this just makes everything so much simpler and easier. Download link.

Custom Graphics Settings

While Valheim isn’t the most graphically sophisticated game, it certainly isn’t the best optimized, either.

That’s where aedenthorn‘s Custom Graphics Settings mod comes in handy, allowing players control over the game’s more granular graphical settings.

Whether you’re running an old potato or want to squeeze the most out of a capable gaming PC then this mod gives you a far greater degree of control over the graphical options. Download link.
