Frequently asked questions

Where do I put my optional mods so DLC Manager can find them?
Create a folder inside your modpack directory following the mod's folder structure (typically a designated DLC or optional content folder), then place your mod files there. The mod will scan this location automatically when you open the DLC Manager menu in-game.
Do I need to restart the game every time I enable or disable a mod?
Not always—DLC Manager tells you whether you need a full game restart or just a resource reload depending on what type of content you're toggling. Resource packs and data packs usually only need a reload, while mods typically require a restart.
How do I add descriptions that show up when I hover over items in the menu?
Create an info file (usually a text or JSON file) in the same folder as your content and name it according to the mod's naming convention. The mod will read this file and display the text as a tooltip when you hover over that item.
Can I use DLC Manager with resource packs and data packs, or just mods?
DLC Manager works with mods, resource packs, data packs, and even specialized content like TACZ gun packs—anything you want to toggle on and off without manual folder management.
