Pages are a form of categorization that split configurations between different panels. These are created by developers to split their configurations but have no functional difference.

Tooltip

The tooltip shows the configuration name, a description on what it does and some tags with extra information. These tags can be:

  • Experimental: Configurations that are not fully tested and may produce errors will display this tag.
  • Default: Shows the initial value from the configuration.
  • Synchronize with client: If that configuration needs to be synchronized with other players to work (This means they need the mod, otherwise they don't).
  • Randomizable: If a configuration can be randomized it will display this tags, non-randomizable configurations will not change their value when randomized.
  • Green tag: A green text represents what values does the configuration accept.

Presets

Presets are the formal way to share configurations with your profile or modpack. You can create as many as you want, load, save or share them with the profile code or file. It contains three buttons:

  • Load preset: Overrides all the configurations with values from the selected preset.
  • Save preset: Saves all your changes and creates or updates the selected preset with these values.
  • Delete preset: Remove a preset file from the disk permanently.

The selected preset appears in orange at the top panel, you can write in it to create a new preset with a name.

WARNING
When saving a preset, it uses the saved values from all your configurations, that means that you must first save the values you have set before creating the preset.

Configuration panel

The configuration panel is where you can modify settings.
