Valheim Optimizer v1.9.6

Adaptive performance optimizations for Valheim. Features:

GC Smoothing
Regular memory cleanup when frame‑times are low, skipping GC on spikes.
Dynamic LOD Bias
Automatically raise/lower LOD bias based on frame‑time, with smoothing.
Throttled Texture Resolution
Asymmetric up/down adjustments at a configurable interval to avoid hitches.
JIT Warm‑up
Precompiles key methods (AI, zones, projectiles) to eliminate runtime stalls.
Startup Preload
Warms shaders, heavy prefabs, and one zone before you load into the world.
High‑Speed Zone Prefetch
Predicts fast‑moving players’ path and loads nearby zones 3×3 over frames.
In‑Game Config UI
Press F5 → /optconfig to tweak every setting live in a Valheim window.
