World Save Method

1. Copying the world file

To start, you first have to make a copy of the world file in which the itens that you want to dupe are.

World files are located in your appdata directory on the Worlds folder inside Valheim:

  • C:UsersUsernameAppDataLocalLowIronGateValheimworlds

Tip: to go to the Appdata folder, Press your Windows key + R and type %appdata% on the box.

Your world saves will be listed as Data Base Files, like this:

Make an external folder and copy the world file you want to use to this new folder.

2. Grabbing the items

After saving the world file with the items inside it, open the world and grab the items that you want to dupe.

3. Duping

Log off the world with the items in your inventory. Then proceed to the external folder created and copy the old world file (the one with the items inside) from there to the worlds directory, overwriting the save (the one with no items)

4. Duped

When you go back to the world, the items that you took will be there again, completing the dupe.

Character Save Method
