Valheim

Greetings Vikings! We can’t believe it’s only been a scant few weeks since we released 1.0. We’re so happy to see so many new and returning players alike, and we’re grateful for all the love you’ve shown us so far. Without you, we wouldn’t be here, so thank you! We’re thrilled to say that we have even been nominated in as many as three categories for this year’s Golden Joystick Awards! You can vote for Valheim for Best Multiplayer Game, Best Indie Game and PC Game of the Year, and voting is open until October 23! As you might have noticed, we’ve been putting out a bunch of bug fixing patches over the past weeks, and we will continue to do so, looking over both bugs and balancing tweaks. We thank you for your patience as we iron out all of the wrinkles, and if you do encounter a bug, please make a report and we will take a look as soon as we are able. In the wake of 1.0 we’ve also been dropping a bunch of other announcements on our social channels. In case you have missed one or some of them, we thought we’d sum them up for you in this post. On the merch front, we’ve launched another Kickstarter with Heroic Replicas, where you can get your hands on cool new items like the Valkyrie b

Further tweaks for you today, vikings! This one includes fixes for both terrain modification and for some achievements, so we hope this makes playing smoother for you all! Due to some internal restrictions, the patch will require a few days to get uploaded to all platforms. Despite this, however, crossplay will still remain functional, so you can keep playing with your friends regardless of what platform you’re on. Patch Notes: * Fixed a bug that caused terrain modifications to revert in Deep North after unloading the area in some cases. Our apologies that this one went back and forth for a while! You may need to manually fix terrain seams by pickaxing, using the hoe, or walking over snow however. * Fixed a bug that could cause way too many enemies to spawn, especially during raids * Fixed Child of Odin achievement not unlocking correctly * Fixed a case where Comfort is King achievement was not unlocking correctly * Excluded unobtainable Blue Mushroom from The Gourmet achievement * Fixed a bug where smoke from fires could push some enemies in unintended ways * Fixed a bug where snow deposits from trees could cause the terrain to be raised around it * Fixed a bug where certain spawn

We have a small patch today that fixes an issue which has caused some players to have duplicated terrains and decreased performance. If you have been affected by this there is a possibility that you will have some visual seams in your terrain. Simply deform the terrain along these seams, or walk in the snow there to make the seams disappear. Previously, these seams would re-appear after reloading the area, but now they will persist correctly. For those of you who have run into the issue of incorrectly having items marked as cheated: We have a planned fix for this, but as it’s a fix that has to be released simultaneously on all platforms as to not break crossplay, it will come in an upcoming patch. We just want to let you know that you can continue to play normally with these items and they will be fixed soon! Regarding lost levels on items: An important message regarding the previous fix to where items on item stands or armour stands would lose their levels and variants. This was due to the updated save format introduced in 1.0, and sadly this data is lost in the conversion and the issue was not found during our testing of this update. This was fixed in Patch 1.0.12, so any world c

We've got more hotfixes and improvements for you today! This patch touches upon a little bit of everything, from keybindings to music. We hope you're having fun in the tenth world, vikings! Due to some internal restrictions, the patch will require a few days to get uploaded to all platforms. Despite this, however, crossplay will still remain functional, so you can keep playing with your friends regardless of what platform you’re on. Patch Notes: Quality of Life: * Added several new keybinding options to the keyboard (Alternate dodge key, hotbar rebinding (on top of 1-8), support for rebinding radial wheel, support for removing keybinds) * Added accessibility setting to be able to toggle blocking * Add toggle to Gameplay settings to skip the intro cinematic on startup * When attacking, the player’s rotation now also snaps towards the intended attack direction when the “attack towards look direction” option is enabled, not just when it’s disabled. * Swapped Motion Sensor and Sheath keybinds on gamepad, returning Sheath to its original keybind. Motion Sensor can now be activated with the alt-key + Sheath button instead. Optimizations: * Improved GPU performance when tessella
