Just a quick advise:
Mods are currently not supported by the developers. Modding is done at your own risk. Updates to Valheim can and will stop mods from working. That said, mods are usually updated within days, so you should be fine. If you can't wait that long, don't mod.
I also HIGHLY encourage you to use a mod manager like "ThunderStore" for all your mod needs. It will notify you of updates to mods and install them for you, it knows of mod dependencies, you can en- or disable individual mods (highly useful when looking for broken mods), you can browse a store of over 1400 mods directly through ThunderStore and it will allow you to start the game in plain vanilla mode, just in case everything goes wrong.
Using mods without ThunderStore is a chore and should be left to people that like to tinker with their computer and know what they're doing. For the rest of us, ThunderStore is the much safer option.
