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: 5.4.2351
Searica-Extra_Snap_Points_Made_Easy
Quality of life building mod that adds snap points to most vanilla pieces and allows you to manually select snap points for the piece you are placing and the piece you are snapping to. Also has a snap to world grid mode.
Preferred version: 2.1.1README
Classic Snap
Brings back the base game's snapping alongside Extra Snap Points Made Easy (ESP) on Valheim 1.0.
The problem
Valheim 1.0 lets you choose which point of the piece you're holding snaps: in build mode, Q / E step through Auto → Top → Bottom → Edge….
ESP adds many more snap points, which is great for detailed building. But it also:
- turns the base game's Q/E snap choosing off, and
- gives its extra points the same names, so the quick Top/Bottom/Edge choice is gone.
What it does
It adds a Classic mode to ESP's Toggle Manual Snap Mode key (CapsLock by default). The key now cycles:
Classic → Auto → Manual → Classic…
| Mode | What you get |
|---|---|
| Classic | Only the game's original snap points, on the piece you hold and on the pieces you attach to. Q / E picks Top / Bottom / Edge like the base game. |
| Auto | ESP's extra points, snapping to the closest automatically. |
| Manual | ESP's extra points; ESP's keys pick the point. |
- Each switch shows "Snap Mode: …" the same way ESP does.
- ESP's other modes (Manual+, Grid) still work from any mode, and switching to them leaves Classic.
- Your mode is remembered between sessions. A fresh install starts in Classic.
Notes
- Client-side only. Building happens on the player's PC, so the server doesn't need it.
- Needs Extra Snap Points Made Easy. Without it this mod doesn't load.
- It doesn't change any ESP settings or files. ESP's extra points are hidden only while Classic is on.
- If an ESP update renames what this mod hooks into, it logs a warning and stays off, rather than breaking building.
- Tested with Extra Snap Points Made Easy 2.1.1, BepInExPack 5.4.2351, Valheim 1.0.17.
Credits
All credit for the snapping features goes to Iron Gate (Valheim's own snapping) and Searica (Extra Snap Points Made Easy). This mod only switches between them.
