README

Camels

Camels now live in the Plains, the land of fulings and lox.

They wander in small herds, stop to graze, and run off when they notice you, so you need to sneak up or use a bow. Fulings and deathsquitos leave them alone, the same as they leave lox alone.

Features

  • A new creature with its own model and texture. It has a full rig and five animations: idle, walk, run, graze and death.
  • Spawns on its own in the Plains, in groups of 2–4, day and night. It uses the same spawn rules as lox, so the Plains don't get crowded.
  • Skittish. A camel runs away when it sees you, like a deer. Unlike a deer, it takes some killing: it has 300 health.
  • Grazing. It stops now and then and puts its head down to eat. Other players in the world see the same thing.
  • Its own sounds: grunts, gurgling and spitting while idle, a groan of alarm when it spots you, and a roar when it dies. Subtitles are included.
  • Drops: 1–2 lox meat and 1 lox pelt.
  • Text in English and Russian.

Installation

The easy way is a mod manager (Thunderstore Mod Manager or r2modman): click Install and it brings in BepInExPack_Valheim too.

To install by hand:

  1. Install BepInExPack_Valheim.
  2. Copy everything from this archive's plugins folder into Valheim/BepInEx/plugins/Camels/.

CamelMod.dll, camel.bytes, camel.png and the sounds folder must stay together in one folder.

Multiplayer

Every player needs the mod, and the host most of all. A player without the mod doesn't see camels. If the host doesn't have it, the game deletes the camels that spawn near the host.

On a dedicated server, install the mod on the server as well. Dedicated servers haven't been tested yet.

Configuration

The config file is BepInEx/config/rombi.camelmod.cfg. It is created after the first launch.

Setting Default What it does
Camel / Health 300 A camel's health. For comparison, a deer has 10 and a lox has 1000.
Spawning / Enabled true Turn this off if you only want to spawn camels yourself.
Debug / EnableConsole false Turns on the F5 console, the same as the -console launch option.
Debug / DumpPrefabs false Writes prefab details to the BepInEx log. Only useful for development.

To spawn a camel yourself, open the console and enter devcommands, then spawn Camel. Type them as two separate commands.

Removing the mod

Removing the mod is safe. Without it, the game quietly deletes the camels near you from the world, and nothing else is affected. If you install the mod again, new camels spawn in the Plains on their own.
