Configured Defaults

     

Configured Defaults serves a a utility for mod packs for copying absent files to the game or server directory from a default location provided by the configureddefaults folder.

Most importantly this helps mod pack makers with providing default mod config files, especially when those mods have been added to the pack via an update and would otherwise generate their missing configs themselves. Any file and folder in the game directory is supported.

Particularly options.txt enjoys special handling where missing entries in an existing file will be complemented from the file provided as a default.

Further instructions on how to use this mod are found in configureddefaults/README.md which generates after the game has run for the first time with the mod installed.

⏩ INSTALLATION OPTIONAL ON CLIENT & OPTIONAL ON SERVER

If available for a mod, configuration is possible directly from in-game using the mod menu (requires Mod Menu by Prospector to be installed on Fabric). Please note that on older Minecraft versions installing Forge Config Screens is also a requirement.

For manual configuration using an external text editor all files are found at .minecraft/config, named as MOD_ID-client.toml, MOD_ID-common.toml, or MOD_ID-server.toml, depending on the type of config. Not all types might exist for a mod, if any at all.

🌟 Thanks to shedaniel and their YOSBR mod for serving as a foundation.
