Scavland mods & trainer

Which loader and folder does my mod need?

Start with one change and a recoverable save. An installed loader is not evidence that every plugin loaded or supports the current game build. The individual sections below link the original author instructions.

Scavland Nexus mods: choose the change you need

For vegetation pickup, see One-Key Harvest. For installation confusion, use the loader quick check first.

Need to skip the night or spawn an item? Use Let Me Sleep or the BepInEx item spawner. These additional author-listed options were reviewed September 30. Check the loader before copying any DLL.

Author-described / checked September 19, 2026 These four listings are by xerox1223. Read each current description, requirements and bug reports before downloading. A listing is not an official endorsement or safety certification.

How to skip the night with Let Me Sleep

Author-described / not play-tested Let Me Sleep by xerox1223 adds a rest menu. It is a community mod, not a built-in sleep command. Back up your save and complete the author's MelonLoader x64 compatibility procedure before placing ScavlandSleep.dll in Mods.

1. During gameplay, press T to open the rest panel.
2. Choose the hours using the slider, arrow keys or A/D. Check the displayed destination time before confirming.
3. Press Enter to advance time, or Esc to cancel. After the transition, compare the displayed time and lighting with the preview.

If the panel does not open, check [ScavlandSleep] in UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg: ModEnabled and OpenKeyName control availability and the key. The author says configuration appears after the first launch; restart after editing it. A startup crash instead belongs to the loader checks. Effects on quests and timed events have not been independently tested here.

F10 item spawner: use the correct loader and folder

Author-described / not play-tested Scavland Debug Item Spawner by Skun821 uses BepInEx 6 for Unity Mono x64, not the MelonLoader installation above. Back up your save before experimenting with generated items.

1. Close the game, follow the author's BepInEx setup, then launch and close once to create its folders.
2. Check the plugin path: BepInEx/plugins/ScavlandDebugItemSpawner/ScavlandDebugItemSpawner.dll. Do not put it in Scavland_Data/Managed.
3. Launch normally and press F10. Search for an item, set the amount and inspect the result on a disposable save. The gun filter exposes compatible attachment choices.

If F10 does nothing, verify that folder and check for older duplicate plugin copies before reinstalling. The author warns against adding the standard native MelonLoader bootstrap alongside BepInEx; their optional bridge has its own instructions. Do not combine loader recipes. Spawned attachments may be loose when they cannot mount; an open menu alone does not prove the desired equipment was created.

Invisible items, a compressed inventory or “Spawn failed”?

The author's October 4 update, version 0.34, addresses two specific faults: spawned items becoming invisible and distorting the inventory layout, and a failure message appearing even when an item was added. Check the installed plugin version before repeating the spawn action.

1. Close Scavland and keep a separate backup of your save. Download the update from the original author page and follow its installation instructions.
2. Check for duplicate older plugin copies. Keep the intended DLL at BepInEx/plugins/ScavlandDebugItemSpawner/ScavlandDebugItemSpawner.dll.
3. On a recoverable save, spawn one item. Confirm that it is visible, the inventory layout remains normal and the displayed result matches the inventory change before adding more.

This is an author-reported fix, not our gameplay test. The changelog does not promise to repair an already affected save.

Disable or uninstall only the item spawner

After its configuration has been generated, close the game and set Enabled = false under [General] in BepInEx/config/local.scavland.debug-item-spawner.cfg. To uninstall this plugin, remove its BepInEx/plugins/ScavlandDebugItemSpawner folder while the game is closed. This does not require removing other plugins or deleting your saves.

One-Key Harvest: installation, conflicts and removal

Author instructions checked October 3 · not play-tested Skun821's One-Key Harvest 0.1.0 sends F-key vegetation harvests into inventory; overflow lands at your feet. It does not change every F-key interaction.

1. Close the game and back up your save. Follow the author's BepInEx 6 Unity Mono x64 setup.
2. Extract so the plugin is at BepInEx/plugins/ScavlandOneKeyHarvest/ScavlandOneKeyHarvest.dll. Do not place it in Scavland_Data/Managed.
3. Launch normally. Test one vegetation harvest with free inventory space and compare the item count before and after.

The author reports compatibility with Drum Cooking 0.1.81 and warns against Cooking 0.1.79/0.1.80. This plugin does not require MelonLoader. For mixed-loader setups, use the author-linked Bridge instructions; do not add a separate native MelonLoader version.dll.

After first launch, settings are in BepInEx/config/local.scavland.one-key-harvest.cfg. To disable, set [General] Enabled to false; to uninstall, close the game and remove the plugin's own folder.

If the check fails: record the exact versions, loader log and action attempted. Stop adding other plugins while investigating. This is an optional mod, not a confirmed fix for a blocked berry quest.

Minimap installed but hidden? Check the controls and markers

Author instructions reviewed September 24 With the author's loader prerequisites completed and ScavlandMinimap.dll in Mods, the documented default is N to show or hide the overlay. Use Numpad + and Numpad − for zoom. These are this community mod's controls, not built-in game bindings.

The author's configuration describes orange dots as discovered points of interest, red as hostile or neutral AI, and green as friendly AI. Check ShowDiscoveredLocations, ShowEnemies and ShowFriendlies if a category is hidden. In UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg, the section is [ScavlandMinimap]; Enabled and ToggleKey control visibility and its binding. The author says to relaunch after configuration edits. If the overlay still never appears, check the loader log before changing more files.

Larger Inventory: where are the added slots?

The author says to scroll with the mouse wheel over the carried-inventory panel. Settings are in UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg under [ScavlandInventory]: check ModEnabled and SizeMultiplier. The documented default multiplier is 8, with 12 columns and additional rows; changes apply on a new run or save load. The configuration is created after the first launch with the mod installed.

Do not create a new run merely to test this: preserve a backup and use the documented save-load path. These settings do not expand a camp chest. Use Larger Player Stash for that separate mod, or the unmodified game's purchased stash tabs. Before reducing capacity, follow the item-preservation precautions.

How to approach Scavland mod installation

Already installed a storage mod? Check stash configuration or capacity growing after reloads before repeating the loader installation.

1. Back up before changing the game.Keep a separate save and original game-file backup. Record the installed game build and try one mod at a time.
2. Read the selected author's full procedure.The linked author instructions require MelonLoader x64 and a Unity compatibility step. Do not treat the loader's version number as a tested game-version guarantee.
3. Complete the prerequisites before adding the mod.The Camera Zoom instructions point the loader installer at Scavland.exe, then place ScavlandCameraZoom.dll in Mods after the compatibility step. Use the selected mod's own filename and instructions, not a renamed DLL or a random mirror.
4. Check the actual result on a recoverable save.Confirm the intended view or storage change, then check loading and ordinary gameplay. Keep the author's removal instructions available; do not assume removing extra slots will preserve items placed there.

Which DLL belongs in the Mods folder?

After the author's loader and compatibility steps, use the filename for your chosen mod. These are author-documented files, not downloads hosted here.

To remove one of these mods, the author directs you to remove its DLL from Mods. Follow the storage rollback precautions first. Removing a mod is not the same as removing MelonLoader or undoing the framework-file changes.

Has anyone reported that the minimap works?

User report · September 16 Nexus user maurish reports successful use. Their comment does not include a game build, loader version or operating system, so it is evidence of one working setup, not a tested compatibility matrix. For the orange-marker question, the author's Configuration section identifies discovered points of interest; see the marker and visibility checks.

Source: Minimap comments — checked September 19 ↗

After installing: did the intended change work?

Keep the game build, mod file version and loader version together. The Minimap page lists Windows MelonLoader 0.7.0 as a requirement; that number belongs to the loader, not proof of compatibility with Scavland 0.7.0 or 0.7.2.

Before removing a storage mod: move items out of added slots if it still works, and keep a separate backup. If the game cannot launch, preserve the save rather than saving it through an unknown reduced-inventory state. Follow the author's removal instructions; no loss-free rollback is guaranteed.

Larger Player Stash: settings and missing extra rows

Author instructions checked September 27 Open the stash once with the mod installed, then check [ScavlandStash] in UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg. ModEnabled enables the expansion; SizeMultiplier defaults to 8 and changes the row count while keeping 12 columns. The author says it applies when the stash opens. Scroll over the stash panel to see extra rows. This is separate from backpack settings and purchased village tabs.

Storage keeps growing after reloads, or the game starts lagging

The Stash page's Version 4 changelog reports a fix for capacity repeatedly growing on save loads or new games, with correction on opening inventory. Its Files tab lists ScavlandStash uploaded September 24, 2026, but the page header still says version 1 and the file version is blank. Check the file date and changelog together; a header number alone cannot establish which fix you installed.

Source: Original Files tab — checked September 27; no executable downloaded or tested here ↗

1. Separate the symptom from ordinary expansion.A larger but stable grid is different from growth on every reload. Note which panel grows, the game build, installed mod file and any error message.
2. Preserve your progress before testing an update.Close the game and retain a separate save backup. Follow the author's update procedure using the original download; do not remove extra slots while valuable items still occupy them.
3. Check a disposable copy, not your only save.Record visible rows and item positions before and after opening storage, then compare after a reload. Stop if items move unexpectedly, disappear or capacity keeps increasing. Report the file date, panel and log to the author.

The changelog is a reported fix, not proof that it resolves every source of lag or restores lost items. If capacity is stable but performance is poor, do not keep enlarging the grid as a troubleshooting step.

MelonLoader crash: CharSet or SkipInit errors

The Minimap author documents CustomAttributeFormatException: Could not find a field with name CharSet as a compatibility-patch symptom, including after game updates replace files. Compare your exact error and loader log with the author's instructions before changing anything.

The procedure modifies framework files in Scavland_Data/Managed and specifically excludes System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe.dll. The author warns that replacing that file can cause SkipInit errors. Do not bulk-copy every DLL or disable security software to force a launch.

For stash crafting problems, the Larger Player Stash changelog reports a craft-from-stash fix. This is the author's claim, not a reproduced test; compare the downloaded file and changelog before assuming the issue is fixed for your build.

Where should I get the Scavland trainer?

Want money, ammunition or item controls instead of a minimap? The WeMod Scavland listing advertises money adjustments, ammunition options, item grants and health/stamina changes for Steam on Windows. These are provider-listed capabilities, not features we have verified in gameplay. It is a separate application, not a DLL to copy into Mods.

Use the provider's Scavland page rather than a re-uploaded executable. The listing advertises game-variable options such as health and stamina controls. A listing is evidence that a product is offered, not that it works with every game patch.

The previously reviewed listing identified Steam on Windows. Read the platform and compatibility information currently shown by the provider before installing; do not infer Steam Deck, Linux or another store's support from that entry.

Before enabling a trainer option

1. Match the game and installed build.Compare your store edition and version with the provider's compatibility information. If your build is not covered, stop treating a successful launch as proof of support.
2. Keep a recoverable save.Preserve a separate backup before trying changes. Do not experiment on your only copy of important progress.
3. Use the provider's current launch instructions.The previously reviewed instructions describe launching through the app, loading gameplay, then enabling options. Follow current instructions if they differ.
4. Check one option at a time.Note the option, game build and visible effect. If it has no effect or behaves unexpectedly, turn it off and use the matching branch below.

Scavland trainer not working: choose the symptom

Do not disable antivirus or download a replacement from an anonymous mirror to force a failed option to work. A crash comparison helps narrow the issue; it does not establish a cause by itself.

For a useful support report, include: game version, store, trainer version, option name, the action immediately before the failure and whether it happens without the trainer. Leave account details and private save information out of public posts.

Does Scavland support content mods or Steam Workshop?

Needs verification: official support Community mods exist on the linked Nexus author pages. The cited official pages do not document an officially supported mod-loader or Workshop installation workflow. Community availability and official support are separate claims.

A trainer changes runtime behavior; a content mod changes or adds game content. Do not use a trainer download as evidence of official mod support. For a claimed content mod, check the author, supported build, installation and removal instructions before changing game files.

For built-in alternatives and ordinary gameplay problems, use Explorer mode, weapon repair checks or patch changes.
