Your Options Shall Be Saved (YOSBS)

# Your Options Shall Be Saved (YOSBS) Your Options Shall Be Saved (YOSBS) is a lightweight utility mod that lets modpack creators define default configuration files without overwriting player preferences Updating a modpack often resets custom settings like keybinds or mod configs, because most launchers replace the entire `config/` folder YOSBS solves this by copying any file placed in `config/yosbs/` to its proper location only once on first launch — and never again This gives full control to the pack author: - Files inside `config/yosbs/` are treated as user-owned: copied once, then left untouched - Files inside `config/` behave as usual: they will be replaced on each update That way, you decide which configs should persist, and which should reset ## Features - **Zero-config**: just drop the defaults under `/config/yosbs/…` (or legacy `/config/yosbr`) - Works for **any** file – `options.txt`, mod configs, `optionsshaders.txt`, etc - Runs in the **pre-launch phase**, before Fabric/Forge starts loading the rest of the mods ## Compatibility & Installation 1. Fabric Loader ≥ 0.4.0 *(No Fabric API required)* 2. Minecraft 1.14 – 1.21.x 3. Requires Java 8 or newer 4. Put the YOSBS jar in `mods/` and launch once – the folder `/config/yosbs` is created automatically (or create it manually) ## Usage examples | Want to ship… | Do this before first launch | |---------------|----------------------------| | A default `options.txt` | Place your file at `/config/yosbs/options.txt` | | A REI config | `/config/yosbs/config/roughlyenoughitems/config.json5` | ## Credits Inspired by the original (https://modrinth.com/mod/yosbr) by *shedaniel*
