VSideLoader

A very basic sideloader for Valheim.
Supports texture dumping and loading at the moment.

Installation

Get the latest package from Releases and unpack it in the same folder as valheim.exe
If you don't already have BepInEx, grab it from Valheim Thunderstore and place the contents of 'BepInExPack_Valheim' in the same folder as valheim.exe
If you don't know where valheim.exe is, right click Valheim in your Steam library, go to Manage, and Browse Local Files

Usage

VSideLoader will create the following directories:
BepInEx\plugins\Textures\Dump
BepInEx\plugins\Textures\Load
It will also create a config file at BepInEx\config\VSideLoader.cfg

VSideLoader adds a new command called "reloadtextures", to quickly reload textures in game

Dump: (default false)
If enabled, dumps all textures to the BepInEx\plugins\Textures\Dump folder
Load: (default true)
If enabled, loads all textures in the BepInEx\plugins\Textures\Load folder
DetectCollision: (default false)
Enables texture name collision detection, mainly for debugging purposes.
Some textures will report as having duplicate names, despite having the same image contents.
SmokeFix: (default true)
The texture used for smoke and fog is named 'dirt', this renames it to 'smoke' to avoid texture collisions.
TextureFilter: (default Trilinear)
Sets the texture filter of loaded textures, if you want to retain the pixelated look of the game, set this to Point.
UseTextureName: (default true)
If enabled, use the internal texture name for dumping and loading. Otherwise uses material and property name.
BlackList:
A set of texture names not to dump.
IgnoreName:
A set of internal texture names to ignore, falling back on material and property name.
BetterLighting: (default true)
Replaces the toon shader with the default deferred shader, removing lighting banding.
Set to false to restore the game's retro look.

Building

You will need Visual Studio 2019 and .NET Framework 4.7.2
VSideLoader.csproj assumes Valheim is installed in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Valheim
If it isn't, open VSideLoader.csproj in a text editor and replace it with the correct location
