Locating and Modifying JSON5 Mod Configuration Files

Finding the Config Files

EnchantedBookLib features a JSON5 configuration system that dependent mods rely on to generate and parse custom setup files. Unlike basic configuration formats, JSON5 files allow for expanded data formatting and inline commentary while remaining lightweight.

To view or adjust settings handled by this system:

1. Fully shut down your Minecraft client or server to prevent files from being overwritten.

2. Open your Minecraft game directory (located in .minecraft or your custom launcher instance folder).

3. Open the config folder.

4. Look for configuration files ending in .json5 or .json that correspond to the mods you have installed.

Editing JSON5 Settings

Open the target configuration file using any standard plain-text editor.

• Read any developer-provided comment lines within the file to understand what each toggle or value affects in-game.
• Modify the values according to your gameplay preferences, taking care not to delete necessary formatting syntax such as curly brackets, colons, or quotation marks.
• Save your changes and close the text editor.
• Launch Minecraft. EnchantedBookLib's configuration parser will read the updated file and apply your new settings to the game.
