Gersemi

Custom gear for the Guys Being Vikings server.

A gersemi is a treasure, something kept and handed on rather than spent. This mod is where the server's own items live: any weapon, armour or trinket made for Guys Being Vikings is added here rather than in a mod of its own.

Items are handed out. There are no recipes and nothing drops them, so ask whoever runs your server.

Install

Install on the client and the server both. These are custom items, so a machine without Gersemi cannot make sense of one lying on the ground and it will disappear when the area reloads.

Settings

Each item has its own section in BepInEx\config\gbv.valheim.gersemi.cfg, covering its colours and effects. Everything is optional and the defaults are what the server intends.

To replace an item's model with your own, put an .obj or .glb named after it in BepInEx\config\Gersemi\.

Commands

For admins, in the console:

Credits

Built for Guys Being Vikings. Models, icons and effects are generated by the mod; no artwork is copied from Valheim or any other mod.

Changelog

0.1.4

Fixed

• The horns no longer have a scatter of dots across them.

0.1.3

Changed

• The helm now burns with the Frostfire Dagger's fire by default, recoloured to match. Without that weapon installed it uses its own fire instead, so nothing new is needed.
• Existing installs are moved to the new default once, unless you had already chosen your own.

0.1.2

Fixed

• Settings changed in the in-game config window now apply straight away. Before, only the console commands took effect and the settings window appeared to do nothing.
• The top of the helm no longer flickers in blocks of colour as you move.

0.1.1

Text only. The mod itself is unchanged from 0.1.0.

Changed

• Rewrote the readme to describe the mod rather than a single item.
• Rewrote the store description to match.

0.1.0

First release.

Added

• The Muspelhelm, a horned war helm marking the 2026 Guys Being Vikings server launch.
• Horns that burn along their whole length and throw embers.
• Four fire colours: Ember, Muspel, Wyrd and Draugr.
• The option to borrow the fire from one of the game's own weapons.
• A glow in the brow band and a small light at the brow.
• Works as a Huskarl Guise look once you have held one.
• Support for replacing the helm's model with your own .obj or .glb.
• Admin commands for handing one out and adjusting how it sits.
