About this mod
Connect to dedicated Valheim servers using a hostname instead of IP address
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
Hostname resolution was added to the base game in 0.147.3. This plugin does not interfere with the game's hostname resolution, so I'm keeping it around for the hostname/IP and password memory features.
Features
- Connect to dedicated servers using a hostname or IP address
- The last hostname or IP address used is pre-populated in the connection panel
- The last successful password used is pre-populated in the connection panel
Notes
Hostname, port, and password are stored in a configuration file (<GameDirectory>\BepInEx\config\ohmg.mods.hostnameconnect.cfg). The last used server password is stored in plaintext in this file. If this concerns you, you can disable password storage by setting the save_password configuration property to false.
Pre-Requisites
This mod requires BepInEx. Follow the instructions here if you don't have it installed already
Installation (manual)
- Extract the archive into a folder. Do not extract into the game folder.
- Move the contents of "plugins" folder into "<GameDirectory>\Bepinex\plugins"
- Start the game and use hostnames
