DadsEPI

DadsEPI is an independently implemented extended player inventory for Valheim 1.0.

Features

• Configurable general inventory rows.
• Dedicated typed equipment slots.
• Dedicated quick-use slots with configurable hotkeys.
• Native Valheim character-inventory serialization.
• Reserved slots excluded from automatic pickup placement.
• Container and crafting compatibility through the standard Inventory API.

Default controls

• Quick slot 1: Z
• Quick slot 2: X
• Quick slot 3: C

Controls and row counts can be changed in BepInEx/config/com.dadisbored.dadsepi.cfg after the first launch.

Installation

Install through a Thunderstore-compatible mod manager. For manual installation, place DadsEPI.dll under BepInEx/plugins/DadsEPI/.

Compatibility

DadsEPI is a client-side inventory owner. Do not run it alongside AzuExtendedPlayerInventory, EquipmentAndQuickSlots, or another mod that changes player inventory dimensions or owns equipment slots.

This prerelease targets Valheim 1.0.12 and BepInEx 5.4.2350. Back up the character before testing inventory-layout prereleases.

Changelog

1.0.1

• Reduced the in-game quick-slot HUD label size to 11 pixels.
• Disabled quick-slot label wrapping and widened the label bounds so shortcut text remains horizontal.

1.0.0

• Published the first stable DadsEPI release for Valheim 1.0.12.
• Includes the separate labeled equipment grid, configurable accepted-prefab lists, optional equipment compartments, configurable quick slots, movement-compatible quick-slot hotkeys, and native-sized inventory defaults developed through versions 0.1.0 through 0.3.2.
• Automatically routes newly acquired accepted equipment into its matching empty dedicated slot and equips it when the Auto-Equip setting is enabled; occupied dedicated slots are left unchanged.

0.3.2

• Changed quick-slot shortcut detection so held movement, sprint, crouch, and other unrelated keys do not block activation.

0.3.1

• Hid unused padding cells in the final internal equipment-storage row so they cannot appear outside the inventory or equipment panel.
• Restored hidden cells and removed slot labels when the visual layout resets.

0.3.0

• Moved the equipment grid outside the inventory hierarchy and positioned it directly to the inventory's right side.
• Added the default Head, Chest, Legs, Back, Wisplight, Wishbone, Crypt Key, Arrows, Shield, and Utility slots in that order.
• Added individual toggles for Wisplight, Wishbone, Crypt Key, Arrows, Shield, and Utility slots.

• Preserved Valheim 1.0's native invrows value separately from DadsEPI storage rows.

• Added Head, Chest, Legs, Back, Utility, Trinket, Wishbone, and Demister slots.
• Added zero-to-eight configurable quick slots with eight configurable hotkeys and HUD labels.
