This mod requires the following mods to function
denikson-BepInExPack_Valheim
BepInEx pack for Valheim. Preconfigured with the correct entry point for mods and preferred defaults for the community.
Preferred version: 5.4.2350README
SandboxTools
A command set for modders, build testers, and anyone who just wants to play in sandbox mode.
It covers two jobs:
- Set up a test character - unlock materials, stations, and recipes, and set skill levels so you can craft, build, and fight without grinding.
- Data mine the live game - export whatever Valheim currently has loaded (vanilla + mods) to CSV for balance checks, recipe audits, and spreadsheets.
Pair it with Server Devcommands for the wider admin / cheat console toolset (god, fly, spawn, and the rest).
Install
- Open r2modman / Thunderstore Mod Manager - Valheim.
- Online - search
DevDonkey-SandboxTools- Install (needs BepInExPack_Valheim). - Launch the game through the mod manager.
- Enable the cheat console (
devcommands) and typesandboxfor the command list.
Or manually: put SandboxTools.dll in BepInEx/plugins/.
Commands
All commands start with sandbox. Type sandbox alone for a short reminder.
Test character
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
sandbox discover all |
Discovers every material and crafting station so recipes and build pieces unlock. |
sandbox discover materials |
Discovers materials only. |
sandbox discover stations |
Discovers crafting stations only. |
sandbox discover recipes |
Unlocks every crafting recipe. |
sandbox skills |
Sets every skill to 100. |
sandbox skills 50 |
Sets every skill to a custom level. |
Data mining
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
sandbox export |
Writes all CSV files under BepInEx/exports/. |
sandbox export items |
Writes items.csv plus the filtered item CSVs. |
sandbox export recipes |
Writes recipes.csv only. |
Tab completes the group and the next argument.
A full export also runs once automatically after the game finishes loading items and recipes for the session.
Export files
Exports land here:
BepInEx/exports/
For r2modman that is usually:
%APPDATA%\r2modmanPlus-local\Valheim\profiles\<profile>\BepInEx\exports\
| File | Contents |
|---|---|
items.csv |
Every item currently loaded (name, type, weight, food/armor/damage stats, flags, whether it has a recipe) |
recipes.csv |
Every crafting recipe, including station, min level, amount produced, and each material + amount |
foods.csv |
Foods only (same columns as items.csv, sorted by food value) |
weapons.csv |
Weapons only |
armor.csv |
Armour only |
materials.csv |
Materials only |
ItemName is the localized display name; InternalName is the prefab id (what spawn commands use). Biome is a best-effort guess from names/stations/materials - treat unknowns as Unknown, not gospel.
Notes
- Local player / client toolkit - meant for testing and sandbox worlds.
