Modder ‘Willybach’ released earlier this week a 1.1GB HD Texture Pack for Valheim that aims to improve most of its textures. This pack covers most Biomes so far and many Building and Crafting textures. Furthermore, and by using AI techniques, it tries to stay as close to the vanilla textures as possible.

As the modder noted, loading times are drastically reduced, as well as performance. Additionally, this pack does not suffer from an issue that reverted rocks back to their vanilla textures.

    Ah, the good ol’ “Why continue developing a game when fans can do it for us?” struck again.

      Yes some the most successful/enduring games are those with user made mods which seem to add functionality original devs just don’t produce

        In 2030 people will be attempting to run the OpenHeim engine on their AI implant all because the game was friendly to modding.
