Version Changer Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

Where do I find the configuration file?
The configuration file is located in your game's config folder (usually `.minecraft/config/`). Look for the Version Changer Mod config file—it's a plain text file you can open with any text editor.
How do I change the version text?
Open the mod's configuration file, find the version text setting, and replace the default value with whatever text you want. Save the file and restart your game for changes to take effect.
Can I use spaces and special characters in the version text?
Yes, the mod supports normal text including spaces, hyphens, and most special characters. If you're using characters that might conflict with the config file format (like quotes), wrap your text in quotes or check the mod's documentation for escaping rules.
Will this mod work with other mods?
Version Changer Mod is designed to be lightweight and compatible with most modpacks. It only changes the displayed version text and doesn't modify game mechanics, so conflicts are rare—but always check your modpack's documentation if you're unsure.
Does changing the version text affect server compatibility?
No, this mod only changes what players see on their client. The actual version your server runs on remains unchanged, so it won't cause connection issues or version mismatch errors.
How do I reset the version text back to normal?
Delete or comment out the custom version text setting in the config file, or replace it with the default Minecraft version number. Restart your game to see the change.
Can I use this for a modpack to show a custom version number?
Yes, this is one of the mod's main uses. Set the version text to your modpack's name and version number in the config file, and all players will see it when they launch the game.
What happens if I use an extremely long version text?
The mod will display whatever text you provide, but very long strings may cause display issues in the version label depending on your screen resolution. Keep it reasonably short for the best appearance.
Do I need to restart the game every time I change the config?
Yes, you'll need to restart Minecraft for the mod to reload the configuration file and apply your changes.
Will this mod affect my game's performance?
No, Version Changer Mod is extremely lightweight—it only modifies text display and has negligible impact on performance or memory usage.
