🎯 Tips & Tricks
Place the extracted files into your Valheim 'BepInEx/plugins' folder if you use BepInEx, or follow standard mod installation for your mod manager.
Since the mod is from 2021, test it after a game update—if recipes don't change, the mod may need a compatibility patch.
Back up your world before installing, just in case the recipe changes affect existing saves.
