📋 About This Mod
Accessibility Mod for Valheim - Enemy Highlighting
Make enemies easier to spot with bright color overlays. I wrote this mod in 2 hours for a friend with a sight disability, so don't expect anything fancy.
By default, it makes entities yellow, cyan or magenta. You can configure this using BepInEx Configuration Manager. You can also toggle it on and off it in real time.
Requirements:
- BepInEx 5.x (required)
- BepInEx Configuration Manager (optional but recommended)
Controls:
- F6: Toggle overlay ON/OFF
- F7: Change color (Yellow → Cyan → Magenta)
- Configure keys via Configuration Manager or by editing the .cfg file
Installation:
1. Install BepInEx 5.x
2. Download AccessibilityMod.dll
3. Place it in: Valheim/BepInEx/plugins/
It works both in singleplayer and multiplayer (it is client-side only). It shouldn't cause issues with other mods but I haven't tested it
thoroughly. You can also use BepInEx Configuration Manager (F1 in-game) to adjust colors, keybinds, and intensity without editing files.
A compact utility mod that highlights enemies and other entities for easier visibility, aimed at players with reduced vision. With 1 endorsement and 125 downloads, it's a niche tool that serves a specific accessibility need, though it lacks detailed documentation.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fills a real need for accessibility—if you struggle to spot enemies, this could be a game-changer
- Tiny download (125 downloads) means it's lightweight and likely won't bloat your load order
- Straightforward concept: no complex features to learn, just install and play
⚠️ Cons
- Only 1 endorsement—community hasn't really vetted it yet, so expect possible bugs
- Last updated Feb 2026—might not be compatible with future game patches
For players with visual impairments or anyone who finds enemies hard to spot in cluttered scenes. Also for accessibility-focused mod users who want a simple QoL improvement. Skip if you're after major gameplay overhauls—this is purely a visibility aid.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check if the game has an anti-cheat (like EAC) that might block mods—if so, you'll need to disable it or use a mod loader
- Since it's a utility mod, place it high in your load order to ensure it works with other mods
- Test in a dark area to see if the highlight is visible enough for your needs
