Valheim GIF Posters
Place animated GIF posters on walls in Valheim using direct image URLs.
How to use
- Select GIF poster in the hammer's Furniture category and place it on a wall. It costs 2 wood.
- Press E on the poster and paste a direct GIF URL, such as
https://example.com/animation.gif. - Wait for the animation to load. Submit an empty URL to clear the poster.
- Press Alt + E to set that poster's scale. Enter a value from
0.25to10, with up to two decimal places. Both1.5and1,5are accepted.1is the default size. The scale is saved per poster and shared with other players.
Use a URL that returns the GIF file itself, not a preview page on a site such as Giphy or Tenor. Every player must be able to reach the URL. The Valheim server shares the URL, while each client downloads the GIF independently. Expiring URLs stop working after they expire.
