Config Manager

Config Manager is a Minecraft modification that provides modpack developers with a simple and convenient way to distribute configuration files. The mod is compatible with NeoForge and Fabric, starting from Minecraft 1.20.1 and above.

Main Features

Preserving User Settings During Updates

Place your modpack's default configuration files in the /config/modpack_default folder. When the game starts, all files from this directory will be automatically copied to the main Minecraft folder, but only if they don't already exist there.

Path examples:

• .minecraft/config/modpack_default/options.txt → copied to .minecraft/options.txt
• .minecraft/config/modpack_default/config/myMod.json → copied to .minecraft/config/myMod.json

This mechanism ensures that individual player settings won't be lost when updating the modpack.

Updating and Resetting Settings

Through the mod list (NeoForge) or mod menu (Fabric), you can open the Config Manager interface and choose one of two actions:

1. Update — copies configuration files from the modpack over the current user settings with overwriting.

   • All parameters changed in the modpack will be updated
   • Settings that the user hasn't touched will remain unchanged

2. Reset — completely clears the config folder and replaces all files with standard ones from the modpack.

   • Particularly useful for fixing damaged or incorrect installations
