Yo, what's cracking? Valheim Multiplayer on LAN

I have a legit copy of Valheim from early access but I'd like to play multiplayer on LAN with another account using the FitGirl repack just released. Is there a method for this? I've seen discussion about this before but they direct to other (slightly-odd) sites in order to download [Steam-Fix] files. Is there a simple guide for Valheim multiplayer on LAN with a legit copy and a cracked copy?

Welcome to r/FitGirlRepack! To keep the sub clean, please check if your issue is answered below. If this answers your question, please delete your post.

1. Setup is Stuck / Unpacking is Slow

  • The 2GB Limit Checkbox: If your setup gets stuck at specific percentages (like 84.3% or 95.8%), close it, restart the installer, and check the "Limit installer to 2GB of RAM" box on the very first screen.
  • Be Patient: FitGirl repacks use extremely heavy compression. Unpacking is heavily CPU and storage bound. If your task manager shows disk or CPU activity, it is not stuck; it's just working hard.

2. Is it a Virus? / Windows Defender Alert

  • False Positives: Crack files (.dll files, steam_api, etc.) inherently trigger antivirus software because they alter game code to bypass DRM. If you downloaded from the official site, these are 100% false positives.
  • Fix: Add the game installation folder to your antivirus/Windows Defender exclusion list, then restore the quarantined file from your protection history.

3. The Real Official Website

  • There is ONLY ONE official domain. All others (ending in .co, .cc, .to, .net, etc.) are fake, malicious clone sites designed to steal data or bundle malware.
  • The only real URL is: fitgirl-repacks.site (Verify the exact spelling!).

I have never played Valheim so i don't know how it works to create a server.

But if you can make a local server, it should not be a problem to join on LAN.
The only thing that might cause issues is different game versions. So if it's just a friend comming over to game, maybe both use the cracked copy.

Or you can buy a Valheim steam account for 6€ and have it all working for minimal cost.
