Great utility for pack devs, but limited

This mod allows you to ship default keybinds with your modpacks, while simultaneously not overwriting the users options.txt file if it already exists, which means you don't have to worry about breaking players options and keybinds with every update. This is a godsend because I no longer have to listen to players complaining about it xD. It also increases player retention, as some players will actually drop a modpack if keybinds don't come pre configured (I know because I'm one of those players). It does lose one star, however, as there is now a better alternative called More Default Options for including default mod options, such as for Journeymap (which this mod doesn't support). If you only want to ship keybinds though, then this mod is easier to use.

Description

Default Options

Requires Balm Support on Patreon

This mod can be used by Modpack developers to distribute default options and keybindings without overriding user changes on every modpack update.

Instead of shipping the options.txt directly, you will ship a "defaultoptions" folder in your modpack which contains the defaults previously saved through the /defaultoptions command.

This mod is available for NeoForge, Fabric and Forge. It requires Balm, which must be installed alongside the mod.

Features

  • On the first run, users will start out with the options you configured - and future changes won't be overridden on updated
  • Keybinds configured by the modpack will be set as new defaults, meaning changes made by users will persist even on updates
  • The server list will be pre-populated with the server list provided by the modpack (and user changes will persist on updates, still)

Usage

  1. 1. Configure the options, keybinds and server list as you would like them to be shipped in the modpack
  2. 2. Join any world and run "/defaultoptions saveAll" to save your current options in the defaultoptions folder (located in the config folder where it should remain)
  3. 3. Do not include the options.txt and servers.dat from the root directory in your modpack
  4. 4. Fresh installations (meaning no existing options.txt) will now start out with your default options

If you are using FoamFix Anarchy Version, disable B:initOptions in the FoamFix config or else Default Options will not work. See this GitHub issue for more info.
