Resourceful Config Mod FAQ

Open the mod list from the pause menu, select Resourceful Config, and click the config button to launch its in-game interface. You can also reach individual mod configs through their own entry in the mod list.

Yes, the mod is built to be cross-platform and runs on both Fabric and Forge, so config screens look and behave the same regardless of loader. Mods that depend on it will show their config through the same interface on either platform.

Mods that don't use Resourceful Config fall back to their own config screen or a raw file editor, so the layout won't match. Only mods that integrate with Resourceful Config get the styled, searchable interface.

Yes, the interface includes a search field that filters options by name as you type. This is the fastest way to find a setting when a mod has a long list of entries.

Most options apply as soon as you save and close the screen, but some require a game restart or a world reload to take effect. If a change seems to do nothing, restart the game before assuming it failed.

Resourceful Config writes files into the standard config folder inside your game directory, usually as JSON. You can edit them by hand, but using the in-game screen avoids syntax errors.

Yes, the files are plain and readable, so manual editing works. Just keep the game closed while editing, since the mod may overwrite your changes on exit if it's still running.

Delete or rename the offending mod's config file so it regenerates with defaults, then relaunch. You can also use the reset option in the config screen if the game still reaches the main menu.

The mod itself is lightweight and only reads config values when needed, so it shouldn't noticeably affect performance. Lag from config changes usually comes from the settings you enabled, not the config library.

Yes, config files are portable, so copying them into the matching config folder of another instance carries your settings over. Make sure both instances run the same mods and versions, or entries may be ignored or reset.

Open the mod list from the main menu or pause screen, select Resourceful Config or any mod that uses it, and click the config button to launch the in-game editor. You can also bind a key in the controls menu to open the config screen directly.

It's a library mod that gives other mods a clean, consistent config screen so you can change their settings without editing files by hand. It works across loaders, so the same interface appears whether you play on Fabric or NeoForge.

Most settings apply immediately when you save them in the config screen. A few options that affect world generation or registry contents still need a game restart to take effect, and the mod will usually note this.

Configs live in the standard config folder inside your Minecraft instance directory, typically as JSON or TOML files per mod. You can edit them manually, but using the in-game screen is safer because it validates values.

Use the search bar at the top of the config screen to filter by name or category. If it still doesn't appear, the option may be hidden behind an 'advanced' or 'expert' toggle, or the mod may not have registered it as configurable.

Yes, it's designed as a cross-platform config library, so it supports the major mod loaders. Mods that depend on it will show the same config interface regardless of which loader you use.

No, it's a lightweight library that only reads config values when needed and doesn't run heavy background tasks. Any performance impact comes from the mods using it, not from Resourceful Config itself.

In the config screen, find the option and click the reset or undo button next to it, or use the global 'reset to defaults' button for the whole mod. Changes take effect once you save and close the screen.

No, Resourceful Config only manages mods that specifically integrate with it as their config backend. For other mods you'll need to edit their own config files or use their built-in screens.

Make sure you click the save or apply button before closing the screen, since some edits are discarded if you exit without confirming. Also check that the config file isn't set to read-only on your system.
