📋 About This Mod
Wigs function as a helmet with similar stats as the padded helmet since they require linen thread to craft. There are various colors to choose from including some unnatural colors dyed with various game objects.
You need to make a loom in order to craft the wigs. The loom also requires linen thread to craft and has 3 extension pieces for upgrading the wigs to boost armor stats. There are also a couple of special wigs that include a dverger circlet and horns.
You can use these on a server, but only those with the mod installed will be able to see the items from the mod.
Thank you to sbtoonz, GraveBear, and RockerKitten5 for all the help - couldn't have done it without you guys!
And thank you to all the insanely talented 3D artists who made these meshes (mesh credits are listed under the permissions and credits section).
Manual Installation:
Download BepInEx and Jotunn (JVL) as per the instuctions on their sites. Then place the CustomWigs folder (the whole folder, not just the .dll) in your plugins folder (Valheim -> BepInEx -> plugins).
