Requirements

  • Valheim
  • BepInEx
  • Jotunn
  • Cheb's Valheim Library (included)

Installation (manual)

  • Extract the contents of the plugins folder to your BepInEx plugins folder in the Valheim directory.

A correct installation looks like:

plugins/
├── Translations
├── chebsthrownweapons
├── chebsthrownweapons.manifest
├── ChebsThrownWeapons.dll
├── ChebsValheimLibrary.dll
└── ... other mods ...

Features

Detailed info in the wiki. Here's the short version:

  • Adds throwing weapons the game:
    • Javelins
    • Axes
    • Shuriken
  • Craftable at the appropriate workbench, eg. bronze javelins at the forge.

Config

Attention: To edit the config, the Configuration Manager is the most user friendly way. This is a separate mod. Please download and install it.

Press F1 to open the mod's configuration panel.

You can also edit the configs manually. Almost everything can be tweaked to your liking. For a complete list of all configuration options, please look here.

Pending Improvements

  • Right click to aim, like a bow
    • Being able to hold right click to aim with a javelin/shuriken/axe before throwing it would be nice.
  • General feedback/improvements to implement from Drago himself:
    • Javelins
      • Need more distance, little less arc
      • Movement penalty should be 2% IMO
      • The noise that registers is too loud/goes to far. Boars alert from across the map on a throw at something else
    • Axes
      • Little more distance with more arc than the javelins IMO
      • Other than that they are great
    • Shuriken - Almost perfect
      • Spread could be a little less or get less with skill increase
      • Launch spot is too low. Needs increased a bit
      • Would like to see them auto select the next throwing weapon in your inventory like arrows when the one in use breaks.
      • I think the durability could be increased, depending on if you can get that auto equip going.

You can find the github here.

Special Thanks

  • Drago for commissioning the mod.
  • Clint Bellanger for the Shuriken models.
  • Leinnan for the Slavic Axe Pack. CC-BY 3.0 stipulates I must indicate whether changes were made: Yes, the texture was resized to be 32x32 and passed through noise filters in Gimp to make it grainy and lower resolution. This is so it blends in better with the Valheim aesthetic.
