Cause.

When I first played Mistlands, the crossbow radically changed my gaming experience. In subsequent games I wanted to have a crossbow that would complement my bow, so I did some. 

Similar reasons for lightning and arrows. I needed a way to have fun with Eitor that didn't require a change of armor or weapons. 

Finally, I added area effect arrows to add another fun twist compared to the fashionable vanilla.

Installation. 

Note: Users updating the game should delete the configuration files and start the game as the plugin will create new configuration files. Many new configurations are added between releases, and older configurations may not be compatible.

Leadership.

 * Unpack the `MoreCrossbows.dll` file into the `/Valheim/BepInEx/plugins/` folder.

Translations.

The mod fully supports translations, but currently only English values are available. If you want to add translations, do the following:  

 1. copy the json file located at

Copy the folder your_valheim_folder/BepInEx/plugins/MoreCrossbows/Translations/English/localisation*.json and the json file to the new directory under Translations 2. 2.

 2. 2. Give this directory the name of the language you want to translate (see list of languages).

 3. Change all json keys to the values you want.

 Now that you're running Valheim, you should see the translations automatically. Finally, send json files to me (via github or discord). I will try to add as many translations as possible.

Please support me.

I spend countless hours every day designing, updating and modifying fashions for everyone. I will never ask you to pay me to create mods or add features, but any support will be very welcome.
