Newbie here

I have to say I am really liking this game so far, but holy god.. Why does it look like a steaming pile of s*it ? Everything is blurring like 10 feet in front of you. Otherwise really fun game

Tried downloading all that sht and everything and nothing works. Downloaded nexus and installed and enabled a graphic mod, yet when I boot up the game nothing has changed. What a frustrating waste of time.

Welp, mods work for countless others of people. You've done something wrong. Troubleshoot it.

How could I do something wrong by simply clicking download and enable? All the mods say enabled. All i downloaded was some HD mod and the required mods nexus recommenced yet it doesnt work. They should be more clear with the steps needed if they didnt mention something

Some mods require other mods to function. Sometimes the order that you install them matters. Where you install them matters. The mod manager doesn't always do everything perfectly, so sometimes you need to do it manually. Sometimes I've simply told it to reinstall without changing anything and then it works.

Troubleshoot it.

How?? the HD mod says nothing is required. How am i supposed to know where the stuff is supposed to be? All I have is the HD valheim mod and the BepinEx mod whatever that is. I cant troubleshoot something I dont know where its supposed to be installed

You read the mod and, if the mod creator is any good, they give simple instructions on what to download and where to put it.

I Followed what he said, he wants me to "extract" the file once its downloaded, but you literally cant. It just shows up as a .7z file and their is no option what so ever to extract it lmfao

I prefer WIlly Bachs texture pack as long as your card has 4Gb+ Ram looks great. You can use that pack WITHOUT having to Mod the game entire and play with folks not using it on the same world as it just modifies local files. I believe most of the 3rd party texture packs work the same.

There are some great MODs on Nexus, once you get worn out on the base game take a look at:
Valheim+ which gives lots of options to make changes
EpicLoot adds dropped magic items
AnyPortal allows portals to link to each other via a drop-down selection rather than needing pairs
