Troubleshooting

What to try when something does not work, where to find your log files, and how to report a bug on the Norse Demigods Discord.

Common problems

Problem What to do
Text is missing or shows as placeholders The mod's files were moved or are missing. Reinstall the mod and keep its folder structure. See Manual install.
You cannot join a server: your Demigods.yaml differs from the server's Install the same mod files as the server, for example its modpack. See Multiplayer.
The runestone says "Disabled by divine intervention!" The server has disabled that demigod. See the FAQ.
The energy meter clashes with another interface mod Turn off the mod's meters: [User Interface] Enable Meters. See Interface settings.
Your settings go back to the server's when you join The server controls most settings. See the FAQ.

Is it this mod?

Before reporting a bug, check whether Norse Demigods causes it:

  1. Back up your characters and worlds. Items from mods that are not loaded can disappear.
  2. Make a new mod manager profile with only Norse Demigods and its required mods (see Requirements).

  3. Try to make the problem happen again.

  4. If it does not happen, another mod is involved. Add your other mods back a few at a time to find which one.

  5. Check Compatibility for known problems.

Log files

The game writes a log file every session. It holds the error messages that help find a bug.

File Where
Player.log (latest session) %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim (Windows)
Player-prev.log (the session before) The same folder
  • Error messages usually contain the word "Exception", for example "NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object".
  • Lines that mention NorseDemigods under an error point to this mod.
  • Each new session replaces the old log, so copy it right after the problem happens.

Reporting a bug

Post in the #bugs forum on the Norse Demigods Discord.

  • Title: the mod's name in brackets, then the problem, for example "(Norse Demigods) Wolf disappears after teleporting".
  • Describe what you did, what you expected and what happened.
  • Say which mod version you use, and whether you play alone or on a server.
  • Attach your Player.log, or at least the error messages.
  • List your other mods, or say if the problem also happens with Norse Demigods alone.

Ideas and suggestions go in the #ideas forum.
