Log Begone Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I configure log begone?
Open the mod's config file in your config folder and edit the list of filters there. Changes apply after restarting the game or reloading the config, depending on your setup.
How do I add my own log filter to log begone?
Add the text string you want suppressed to the filter list in the config file. Log Begone matches that string against incoming log lines and drops any line containing it.
Does log begone actually improve performance?
It helps when something is spamming your log every tick, since writing thousands of lines to disk and the console costs real time. If your log isn't being spammed, it won't do much for FPS.
Log begone removed an error I actually needed, how do I get it back?
Remove or narrow the filter that's catching it in the config, then restart. If you're unsure which filter is responsible, disable filters one at a time until the message reappears.
What logs does log begone remove by default?
By default it targets log spam from the_aether modpack. Anything outside that default set needs to be added manually to the filter list.
Can log begone stop the missing block and item spam after removing mods?
Yes, that's one of its main uses. Add the recurring missing registry message text as a filter and those lines stop filling your log.
Is log begone compatible with other performance mods?
It only touches log output, so it generally coexists fine with performance mods. Conflicts are rare, but if logs go missing unexpectedly, check whether another mod is also filtering them.
Why is my log still full of spam after installing log begone?
The default filters only cover the_aether modpack spam, so other sources pass through untouched. You need to add your own filters for whatever is spamming your specific setup.
How do I know which log lines to filter?
Open your latest.log, find the line that repeats over and over, and copy a distinctive chunk of its text into your filter list. Avoid filtering short generic words, since those will catch unrelated lines too.
Does log begone delete my log file or stop logging entirely?
No, it only suppresses lines matching your filters. Everything else still gets written normally, so you keep your log for debugging.
