README

MySix ModsNotCheating

Having mods installed no longer stops you earning achievements.

  • The problem: Valheim switches achievements off for anyone with a mod installed, as if they had cheated. With this installed it does not, and achievements unlock as they would in the unmodded game.
  • Everything else the game counts as cheating still counts: using dev commands, carrying spawned items, or playing a world with cheat modifiers. This only stops mods themselves from being held against you.
  • Nothing on your character is changed: being modded is never saved to a character, so once this is installed your achievements simply work again.
  • On as soon as it is installed. If you would rather not have it, uninstall it, or set ModsNotCheating.Enabled to false.

Part of the MySix mod suite. Every mod in the suite needs MySix Core, which adds the in-game mysix command for reading and changing settings. On a server, settings are owned by the server: an admin changes a value once and every connected player picks it up.

Installing

Install with a mod manager - the Thunderstore Mod Manager, Gale and r2modman all work - or unzip the DLL into BepInEx/plugins yourself. Everyone playing together should run the same versions.

Settings

Press F5 in game and type mysix to list every setting, or edit BepInEx/config/com.mysix.*.cfg.

Languages

Every MySix mod supports all the languages Valheim offers: whatever language you play the game in, the text these mods show is in that language too. Abenaki is the one exception for now - there it shows in English, as we could not find a translation we trust. We mainly test in English, but we will do our best to support every language the game supports; if something reads wrong in yours, please let us know.

Note on achievements

Valheim switches achievements off for anyone with a mod installed. MySix Mods Not Cheating, part of the MySix bundle, keeps them working.

Version 1.0.2. The Changelog tab lists what changed in each release.

CHANGELOG

Changelog - Mods Not Cheating

What changed in Mods Not Cheating, newest release first. Each MySix mod has its own version number, and only a release that changed Mods Not Cheating is listed here.

1.0.0

  • New: achievements work again with mods installed. Valheim treats having any mod installed as cheating and switches achievements off. This stops mods themselves counting, and nothing else: dev commands, spawned items and worlds with cheat modifiers still count exactly as before. It changes nothing on your character, because being modded was never saved to one.
