The Shack Pack
A vanilla+ quality-of-life pack for The Viking Shack server, built for Valheim 1.0 (Deep North).
It's less tedium, the same Valheim: inventory, building, farming, map and UI conveniences. Combat, mobs and difficulty are left vanilla, and the pack adds no new items, creatures or biomes.
Install
- Install r2modman, pick Valheim, and create a new profile.
- Online tab → search The Shack Pack → Download. Every mod installs at the exact version the server uses.
- Click Start modded.
- Linux (native Valheim): the first time, r2modman shows a Steam launch option. Copy it into Steam → Valheim → Properties → Launch Options. A normal Steam launch stays vanilla.
- Join IP with the address and password your server admin gave you.
Updating
- When the pack updates, select The Shack Pack in your installed mods and click its Update button.
- Never use "Update all": it moves mods past the versions the server runs, and the server will refuse the connection.
- The pack ships some settings files, which are listed below. Updating the pack resets those files to the pack's values.
What's included
Inventory & storage
- Quick Stack - Store - Sort - Trash - Restock: stack to nearby chests, sort, restock, trash.

The pack's keys were chosen so mods don't clash with each other or with vanilla Valheim. You can change any of them in F1.
Settings changed from the mods' defaults
These keep the game vanilla:
- OttoFuel: blast furnace only takes its normal ores; ballistas don't auto-reload.
- CraftFromContainers: doesn't pull fuel or ore into stations; OttoFuel handles that.
- Build camera: vanilla pickup range (2 m); the Wisplight's mist range stays at vanilla while building.
- AutoFeedRedux: feeding chests aren't protected from monsters.
- ZenBeehive: respects wards.
- My Little UI: weather and wind forecasts are off.
- AutoFeedRedux and XPortalNetworks: error reporting is off.
Known issues
- Gizmo stops rotating after you leave a world and join again. Restart the game.
- Equipment and Quick Slots stores data in your character. Before you ever remove it, empty its armor and quick slots, or those items stay hidden until you reinstall it.
- AchievementEnabler clears the "cheated" flag on characters and items. That can't be undone.
