The developers at Iron Gate Studios recently released update 0.148.6 for Valheim, which has disabled several players from accessing the in-game F5 console.
Previously, players had the in-game console activated by default. However, the new update has ensured that the in-game console remains deactivated by default. This means that players will need to activate the console from Steam before they launch Valheim.
Apart from deactivating the console in Valheim by default, the developers have also changed the code to activate developer options from "imacheater" to "devcommands." This is extremely important for players to note as the previous command for activating developer mode in Valheim does not work anymore.
