Fimbulwinter Lite v1.4.1
Changelog
All notable changes to Fimbulwinter Lite will be documented in this file.
The format is based on Keep a Changelog,
and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.
[1.4.1] - Unreleased
Added
- VentureValheim-Venture_Floating_Items 0.3.3 --
FloatEverything = true, so
every dropped item floats instead of sinking, ore and metal bars included
(at user request; overrides this mod's own safer default of only floating
trophies/meat/hides/treasure/craftable-gear plusSerpentScale/
BonemawSerpentTooth).SinkingItems = BronzeNails, IronNailsstill
applies -- per the mod's own source, the sinking-list check runs before
theFloatEverythingcheck, so those two items are the sole exception
and still sink. Uses Jotunn's built-in ConfigSync (all settings are
admin-only/server-controlled), so this is genuinely server-enforced
without needing a ConditionalConfigSync integration -- install on both
server and clients.
Fixed
- AAA_Crafting: all four crafting-menu keybinds (
Incremental Modifier,
Max Craft Modifier,Show Minus Button,Toggle RecipeUI) had been set
toNoneinstead of their real defaults, silently breaking Shift+scroll
(increment craft amount by 5) and Ctrl+scroll (jump to max craftable) over
the amount input box -- the actual cause of "shift-craft only crafts one."
Restored toLeftShift,LeftControl,LeftControl, and
LeftShift + PageUprespectively; all four only fire while the crafting
menu is open, same context-scoped pattern already used elsewhere in this
pack.
Changed
- AAA_Crafting:
Vanilla-Likeoff (was on) andGrid Sizeset to Medium --
unlocks the mod's newer enhanced recipe grid instead of the classic vanilla
view.Favorting Systemon (was off) with itsFkeybind restored
(crafting-menu-only context, doesn't touch Forsaken Power). - AzuExtendedPlayerInventory bumped 2.4.1 -> 2.4.2 (stacking fix with
backpacks, tombstone patch).Use Legacy Layoutoff (was on) -- the pack
had been opted into the pre-2.0 layout the whole time despite shipping the
post-2.0 mod version.Show Vanity ButtonandShow Loadout Buttonboth
on (were off) -- pure cosmetic/equipment-set QoL from the 2.0 overhaul,
zero balance impact.
[1.4.0] - 2026-07-26
Added
- Crystal-DigDeeper 1.1.7 -- raises the terrain dig/raise limit from vanilla's
8m to 40m of depth and 16m of height. Client-only by the mod's
own design -- it has no ConditionalConfigSync/ServerSync integration, so it
cannot be enforced by the server. Installed on every client via this pack's
shared config, which keeps everyone's value consistent through profile
distribution rather than live server sync; a player who hand-edits their
local config could desync terrain shape from others, same risk as with any
unsynced client-only mod.
[1.3.1] - 2026-07-26
Changed
- shudnal-ConfigurationManager 1.1.15 → 1.1.16 — uses ConditionalConfigSync's
effective administrator state when deciding whether server-provided hidden
settings apply (avoids stale vanillaAdminListstate). Requires
ConditionalConfigSync 1.0.4+ (bumped alongside it below). - shudnal-ConditionalConfigSync 1.0.3 → 1.0.4 — internal handshake/protocol
reliability fixes. No config or gameplay-visible change; required as both
ConfigurationManager 1.1.16's and Seasons 1.8.2's dependency floor. - shudnal-Seasons 1.8.1 → 1.8.2 — Expand World Data compatibility fixes
(biome environment/weather reload lifecycle). No config schema change.
[1.3.0] - 2026-07-21
Added
- Azumatt-ChangelogEditor 1.0.9 -- hides the main-menu changelog
(Should Show Changelog = Off) - Mexanik-ShieldBash 1.5.5 -- active shield bash attack.
BashKeymoved off
its defaultF(collides with vanilla Forsaken Power) toMouse2
Changed
- QuickConnect UI tuned:
ButtonFontSize/LabelFontSize0→16,
WindowWidth250→384,WindowHeight50→72,WindowPosX/WindowPosY
20→50 (CustomConnectionErrorandCustomDelimiteralready matched
the desired defaults) - server_devcommands:
Automatic devcommands = false(wastrue) --
devcommands mode no longer auto-enables for admins on join; must be
explicitly activated - MyLittleUI:
Show slots space taken = true - AutomaticFuel, at user request to widen coverage and fix disabled
defaults from an earlier, forgotten tuning pass:FireplaceRange,DropRange,SmelterOreRange,SmelterFuelRange:
5 → 15 (the latter three restore the mod's own shipped default; all
four are now consistent)RefuelStandingTorches,RefuelBraziers,RefuelHotTub,
RefuelWallTorches,RefuelFirePits,RefuelHearth: false → true
(restores mod defaults -- every light/heat source now auto-refuels)Use Dropped Items for Fuel: false → true (restores mod default)AllowStackSmelters: false → true -- researched as the "best
configuration" ask for Smelters/Kilns: this removes the vanilla
smoke/smoke-blocked placement check so smelters/kilns can be built
tight together, a standard QoL choice for this category of pack.
Turn Off Windmills/SpinningWheel/Kilnwere alreadyfalse(meaning
NOT turned off -- already enabled, no change needed) and
RestrictKilnOutputstaysfalse(unrestricted output is the more
permissive state already, consistent with "auto-refuel everything")
- PlantEasily:
KeyboardModifierKey(grid-resize modifier) moved from its
defaultRightControltoLeftAlt-- Right Control is frequently
missing or unreliable on laptop keyboards, which is almost certainly why
it "didn't work"; Left Alt is universally present and doesn't collide
with anything else in the pack - AzuCraftyBoxes:
Prevent Pulling Logicmoved fromAlt + Oto
Alt + Slash-- the bareOadmin bind (debugmode+nocost+godin
binds.yaml) fires regardless of what modifier is also held, so any admin
using this ordinary client mod would accidentally toggle god mode/no-cost
building/debug mode on themselves. Found via a keybind audit prompted by
the same bug already caught and fixed in Fimbulwinter - AzuExtendedPlayerInventory: quick slot 5 moved from
Alt + Bto
Alt + 3-- collided with Extra Snap Points Made Easy's Manual+ snap
toggle (B), found in the same audit pass
Tooling
scripts/deploy.sh fullnow callsdisable_auto_update()before staging,
which sets the egg'sAUTO_UPDATE_MODSstartup variable to0via the
Pelican Client API. Fixes the recurring edge case where testing a full
deploy on the server got reverted: the post-deploy restart's boot-time
server-autoupdate.shwould re-sync to the latest published
Thunderstore pack ifAUTO_UPDATE_MODS=1, clobbering the unpublished
local state just pushed for testing. The existinglocal-*
manifest-marker skip (2026-07-18) was meant to prevent this but isn't
relied on anymore -- the variable is switched off outright now.
Deploy.sh does not re-enable it automatically -- flip
AUTO_UPDATE_MODSback to1yourself once testing is done and you're
ready to publish.
[1.2.0] - 2026-07-19
Added
- shudnal-LongshipUpgrades 1.0.17 -- removable mast (with hanging lantern,
rest tent, and Wisp torch mounts), hull HP + fire/Ashlands-ocean-protection
upgrades, 2-step storage expansion, cartography table map-data exchange
between players, and cosmetic head/sail/shield/tent style switching.
Requires the mod on server and every client (mod-specific RPCs; mismatched
peers are rejected on connect).
Tuned off the Vanilla+ line:Turrets - Enable upgrades = false(the
auto-firing ballista turret is a new combat mechanic vanilla doesn't have)
andItem stand - Forsaken power enabled = false(stops the trophy stand
from granting a second, simultaneously-usable Forsaken power alongside
your own -- preserves vanilla's one-power-at-a-time tradeoff; the trophy
still mounts as a cosmetic figurehead).Only creator can upgrade ship
andOnly creator can change trophyset to false so any player can help
upgrade a shared longship, matching the pack's cooperative-building
philosophy (MultiUserChest, Groups).
Fixed
- Server devcommands admin bind on F9 was silently broken -- half of it
(/creative) called a command that does not exist in Server devcommands
1.108.0 (verified against the shipped plugin binary), almost certainly a
stale leftover from the original 111-mod Fimbulwinter pack. The bundle now
togglesdebugmode+nocost+godtogether onO(moved offF9--
in testing, F9 triggered a Steam Input controller-layout switch, a known
conflict category since F9-F12 are common defaults for Steam Input layout
hotkeys, NVIDIA overlay, and keyboard macro software); a new admin-only
bind onKtogglesflyseparately, since flight wasn't part of the old
bundle at all.
[1.1.1] - 2026-07-18
Added
- Azumatt-SleepSkip 1.3.0 -- majority-rules night skipping: 2+ players in bed
starts a vote, everyone else gets a popup, strict majority (51%) passes;
AFK players abstain after 45s, players in combat auto-deny
Changed
- Gizmo reset-ALL-rotations key enabled on T (disabled by default in the mod) --
Gizmo's rotation state persists across tool swaps by design, so leftover
X/Z rotations can surprise you; one press of T zeroes everything - shudnal-ConfigurationManager updated from 1.1.14 to 1.1.15 (its own settings
are now managed through ConditionalConfigSync; remains client-optional) - ProjectileTweaks ammo counter restyled: icon still hidden, text size 21,
centered, white, position (0, 0)
Fixed
- Seasons
Control grass,Custom textures, and the whole grass-tuning
section are now client-controlled instead of server-enforced -- the prior
blanket server-authoritative sync policy meant one server-side value forced
grass off (or on) for every player with no way to override locally, and in
testing a server-enforcedControl grass = falsewas observed to clear
grass entirely rather than just revert to vanilla. Season timing, weather,
and stats remain server-authoritative so the world stays in sync; visual
grass/texture toggles are now each player's own choice.
[1.1.0] - 2026-07-15
Added
- JoelOliMclean-NoRainDamage 1.2.4 -- buildings no longer take weather/rain
damage (Structure_Tweaks was evaluated first but has no global weather
toggle -- its wear system is per-object/visual) - Smoothbrain-TargetPortal 1.2.3 -- step into any portal and pick your
destination on the map; no more tag pairing (TeleportEverything's 10%
ore tax still applies to what you carry) - TastyChickenLegs-AutomaticFuel 1.4.8 -- smelters, kilns, windmills and
spinning wheels auto-feed from nearby chests (torch/campfire/brazier fueling
and ground pickup disabled; chest range 5m; toggle key F7) - Searica-AdvancedTerrainModifiers 1.4.1 -- precision terraforming with
square/circle modes and undo/redo - coemt-StumpsAreOneHp 0.0.1 -- tree stumps fall in a single hit
- Searica-ProjectileTweaks 1.6.0 -- cleaner archery feel: launch-point fix so
arrows go where the crosshair points, bow/crossbow zoom (hold right mouse
while drawing), draw cancel (E), ammo count icon; all projectile physics
multipliers kept at vanilla values - Revel-Headshots 1.0.2 -- most organic creatures gain a head weakspot that
rewards precise pierce-damage shots (arrows/bolts); frozen micro-mod,
carried over from the original Fimbulwinter pack
Changed
- Gizmo no longer applies to terrain-modifying tools (hoe/cultivator/shovel keep
vanilla rotation) -- removes rotation-ring UI and Alt-key overlap with
AdvancedTerrainModifiers scroll controls - Extra Snap Points Made Easy keybinds rebound to remove collisions:
Manual+ snap mode Alt -> B (Alt is held for Gizmo z-rotation and terrain-tool
radius scrolling), grid snap F3 -> F11 (F3 opens the config manager);
snap notifications moved from center-screen to top-left (snap-point cycling
stays on Q/E -- active only inside manual snap modes) - shudnal-ConfigurationManager updated from 1.1.13 to 1.1.14
- shudnal-ConditionalConfigSync updated from 1.0.1 to 1.0.2
- shudnal-Seasons updated from 1.8.0 to 1.8.1 (requires ConditionalConfigSync 1.0.2)
[1.0.1] - 2026-07-14
Added
- ComfyMods-ComfyAutoRepair 1.0.0 -- interacting with a crafting station
auto-repairs all items that station can repair (client-side, vanilla rules
preserved: station level and proximity still required)
[1.0.0] - 2026-07-13
Initial release of Fimbulwinter Lite -- a complete Vanilla+ refactor of the original
Fimbulwinter modpack (ibfleming/Fimbulwinter, retired at v1.6.1). The pack was rebuilt
from 111 mods down to 43, removing all content overhauls (creatures, weapons, magic,
loot systems, difficulty scaling) in favor of a lightweight, maintainable QoL layer that
preserves vanilla progression and balance.
