A performance update. Install or update the same way: import LoAlCo-ValCraft-0.5.2.zip into your Gale profile, or run the optional ValCraft-Installer-0.5.2.exe (INSTALL.md). Your Minecraft worlds and sign-in are kept.

What's new in 0.5.2

  • Smoother Minecraft side: the hand, HUD and Minecraft's things in Valheim keep up much better, also after switching between Valheim worlds. Animated textures (water, lava, fire) no longer re-upload Minecraft's whole texture atlas to the graphics card many times a second; only the small part that changed goes up.
  • Lighter on memory when switching worlds: the old world's Minecraft blocks are cleaned up properly.
  • New installer icon: a Minecraft sword in front of a Viking shield.
  • Everything from 0.5.1: Minecraft mobs walk Valheim's terrain and fight its monsters, F8 block terrain sharing your inventory and builds, underwater effects, first-person hands lit by Valheim, and more.

Known issues

  • Minecraft mobs sometimes spin in place for a moment when their path breaks.
  • Valheim creatures don't fight back at Minecraft mobs yet.
  • Minecraft items lying on the ground don't follow you across F8 (block terrain on/off).
  • Pausing Valheim doesn't pause Minecraft yet, even when you play alone (planned).
  • Minecraft's portals (Nether and End) don't work. They may or may not be added later.

Files

  • LoAlCo-ValCraft-0.5.2.zip: the mod (this is the one you want).
  • ValCraft-Installer-0.5.2.exe: the optional step-by-step installer (has the mod inside).
  • valcraft-fabric-0.5.2.jar: only the Minecraft half, for your own launcher.
