Frequently asked questions

How do I know if Config Manager Mod is working?

Open your config folder and look for a /modpack_defaults directory—if it exists and contains configuration files, the mod is active. You can also check the mod list in-game (via NeoForge or Mod Menu) to confirm Config Manager Mod is loaded.

Will updating my modpack overwrite my custom settings?

No, Config Manager Mod only copies default configurations to your /config folder if those files don't already exist. Your personal edits are preserved unless you explicitly choose to update them through the mod's interface.

What's the difference between modpack_defaults and my config folder?

The /modpack_defaults directory stores the modpack creator's intended default settings and is never touched by the mod. Your /config folder contains your active settings; files here take priority and won't be overwritten on modpack updates unless you manually request an update.

How do I reset one mod's config without resetting everything?

Use the configuration management interface in-game (accessible via the mod list) and select the Reset option for that specific mod. This will restore only that mod's configuration to the modpack default without affecting other mods.
