Newbie question: How do I start running Mods on my server?
Hello everyone
I hope you are all well. I have run through the game with friends and would like to start looking at some different mods to extend capabilities. I really do not know where to start. With the exception that I see you can turn on mods in the server. There are two different choices, one is Valheim Plus and the other is BepinX. Not sure which one to choose. Is that then all I need to do? Or do I also have to download the mods somewhere?
Any help and suggestions would be awesome.
Thank You

You will need Bepinx to run Plus, as they are dependent. If you hit up youtube, you can find some nice vids on how to download and install mods. I would suggest to share files of configs you want to have for Plus but generally, the person who starts the server will have their configs active for the entire server.

It's been so long, but I believe I learned how to do it watching YouTube videos on the subject. They will take you through the process step by step.
Here is a link to Thunder Store to choose and get mods (Don't be worried. They're free even though They call it a "store".)
https://valheim.thunderstore.io/?page=1
I'd recommend you hit the tab labeled, "Top Rated" to start.
Be warned. Mods can radically change the game by making it too easy or too hard. Plus they can break your game. You can lose valuable equipment, progress or even whole saves of your character or world, especially when updates are not compatible with your mods.
