📋 About This Mod
This mod allows you to quickly jump back into the last game world with the last character played by pressing a hot key (F7 by default). You must have already created and loaded a character to use this mod.
To customize the hotkey, edit the file BepInEx/config/aedenthorn. QuickLoad.cfg (created after running the game once with this mod) with a text editor or in-game using the Config Manager.
Installation
This mod now uses BepInEx, as that seems to be the preferred framework for Valheim mods. You will need to install the BepInEx for Valheim pack if this is your first Valheim mod.
Install this mod like any other BepInEx plugin by placing the dll file (not the zip) in the BepInEx/plugins folder.
Technical
To install this mod, the easiest way is to just use Vortex, the Nexus Mods mod manager. It should take care of all dependencies.
To install manually, place the dll file in the BepInEx/plugins folder. You will need BepInEx.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Saves time for players who frequently reload their world—one keypress instead of navigating menus.
- Simple and lightweight, does exactly what it says without bloat.
- Recent update (October 2023) suggests it's still maintained for current game versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Low endorsement count (64) means it's not widely tested by the community—could have undiscovered issues.
- Only works from the main menu; doesn't help if you're already in-game and want to reload.
- No configuration options mentioned—you're stuck with F7 unless you edit files manually (if possible).
For Valheim players who die often or switch between worlds frequently and want to skip menu clicking. Also for speedrunners or anyone who values quick session restarts. Skip if you rarely reload your game or prefer to manually select your world each time.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have BepInEx installed, as most Valheim mods require it—check the mod's page for specific dependencies.
- Test the hotkey after installing to ensure it loads the correct profile and world, especially if you have multiple profiles.
- If F7 conflicts with another mod or game function, look for a config file to rebind the key (if the mod supports it).
