Mod Menu Mod FAQ

19 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I open the mod list in-game?
Click the "Mods" button on the main menu — it sits alongside the other title screen buttons. You can also reach the same list from the pause menu in some setups, but the main menu button is the standard way in.
Why can't I see a mod I know is installed?
Library and dependency mods are hidden by default, so check whether the mod you're looking for is being filtered out as a library. Toggle the option to show library mods, or use the search bar to confirm whether it's actually loaded.
How do I search for a specific mod in the list?
Type part of the mod's name into the search bar at the top of the mod list. The list filters as you type, so you don't need to scroll through everything manually.
How do I open a mod's config screen?
Click on the mod in the list to open its detail page, then use the config button if the mod provides one. Mods that don't support in-game config won't show that button, and you'll need to edit their config file instead.
Why is the config button missing for some mods?
The button only appears for mods that register a config screen with the game. Mods that only use plain config files, or that haven't added config screen support, won't have one — you'll have to edit their file manually.
How do I check which mods have updates?
Open the mod list and look for update indicators next to each mod's entry. The mod checks for newer versions and flags them, so you can see at a glance which ones are out of date.
Why does it say a mod has an update when I just downloaded it?
The update check compares your installed version against the latest one the mod can find, which may be newer than what you have. If you're on the newest release for your game version, the flag may be for a different game version's build.
How do I see a mod's description, author, and links?
Click the mod in the list to open its detail view. Description, author, and any links the mod provides are shown there.
Can I hide library mods so only content mods show?
Yes — library mods are filtered out by default, so the list normally shows only main content mods. If you need to see them, there's a toggle to include library mods in the list.
Does this mod affect performance or cause crashes?
The mod itself is lightweight and only adds a menu screen, so it shouldn't noticeably affect performance. Crashes are more likely to come from the mods you're viewing or from config screens you open, not from the menu itself.
How do I open the Mod Menu Mod?
Click the "Mods" button on the game's main menu screen. It sits alongside the other title screen buttons, so you don't need to be in a world to use it.
Mod Menu Mod not showing up
Make sure the mod is actually loaded for the version you're launching, since the button only appears when the mod itself is active. If you're launching a different profile or mod loader than the one you installed it for, the button won't appear.
How to use Mod Menu Mod?
Open it from the main menu, then scroll the list to find a mod and click it to see its details. From there you can jump to a mod's config screen if that mod provides one.
Why can't I see all my mods in the list?
Library mods are hidden by default so the list only shows content mods. Toggle the option to show libraries if you need to find one.
Mod Menu Mod Minecraft Bedrock
This mod is built for Java Edition and does not work on Bedrock. Bedrock handles mods and add-ons differently, so there's no equivalent button there.
Does Mod Menu Mod work with other mods?
Yes, it's designed to sit on top of your existing mods and just read their metadata. It doesn't replace or conflict with content mods, though a mod must expose a config screen for the config button to work.
Mod Menu Mod search bar not finding a mod
Check that the mod is actually installed for the profile you launched, since the search only covers loaded mods. Also try a shorter or partial name, as the search matches on the mod's displayed name.
How do I check if my mods have updates?
Open the mod menu and look for update indicators next to mods that have a newer version available. The mod checks for updates automatically, so you just need to read the list.
Does Mod Menu Mod affect performance?
It only runs on the main menu and when you open the list, so it has no impact during gameplay. The update check happens in the background and won't slow down your game.
