GearHeim

A BepInEx + Jötunn mod for Valheim: gear loadouts locked in a buildable Loadout Chest, switchable from anywhere in your base, with stackables restocked from your chests.

Install: Svaha-GearHeim on Thunderstore, or the Assets zip from a GitHub release.

Player-facing docs: package/README.md. Version history: package/CHANGELOG.md.

Layout

Path	Purpose
src/	Mod source (GearHeim.csproj, targets netstandard2.1)
package/	Thunderstore files: manifest.json, README.md, CHANGELOG.md, icon.png
build.sh	Builds and zips a Thunderstore package into dist/
libs/	Game assemblies and Jotunn.dll to compile against (git-ignored, never commit)

Building

1. Install the .NET 8 SDK (or newer).
2. Put Valheim's managed assemblies in libs/Managed/ (or set VALHEIM_MANAGED): assembly_valheim, assembly_guiutils, assembly_utils, UnityEngine, UnityEngine.CoreModule, UnityEngine.AssetBundleModule, UnityEngine.InputLegacyModule, UnityEngine.PhysicsModule, UnityEngine.TextRenderingModule, UnityEngine.UI, UnityEngine.UIModule, Unity.TextMeshPro. No game install? The free dedicated server has them: steamcmd +@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType windows +force_install_dir ./valheim_server +login anonymous +app_update 896660 +quit
3. Put Jotunn.dll (from the JotunnLib NuGet package, lib/net462/) in libs/.
4. Run ./build.sh → dist/GearHeim-<version>.zip.

How it stores things

• Loadouts live in the Loadout Chest's ZDO (GearHeim.Loadouts), serialized with the game's own Inventory.Save, so nothing can be dragged out by hand.
• Items carry GearHeim.Loadout / GearHeim.Entry tags in ItemData.m_customData.
• The loadout you're wearing is remembered in Player.m_customData["GearHeim.Worn"] (saved with your character).
