Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install MaLiLib API Mod if I don't have any mods that use it?
No. Only install it if another mod in your setup specifically requires it—the mod's description or documentation will tell you. Installing it without a dependent mod won't cause problems, but it serves no purpose on its own.
Why does a mod say it needs MaLiLib but my settings menu looks broken?
The mod likely can't find or load the MaLiLib API file. Make sure the file is in your mods folder and that you're using a compatible version—check the dependent mod's requirements to confirm which MaLiLib version it expects.
Can I delete MaLiLib API Mod after I've set up my mods?
No. Any mod that depends on MaLiLib needs it to run. Removing it will cause those mods to crash or lose access to their settings menus when you launch the game.
Where do MaLiLib mods store their settings files?
Settings are saved in your config folder, usually organized by mod name. MaLiLib standardizes how these files are structured so mods can read and write them reliably without conflicts.
