Why do you want to make a CFG file? JSON files can already make a configuration file?

To many mods use *.cfg* files for config like enderio, veinminer, rftoold, exnihilo.

also its easier to config

Hello Goldorion, if this mod is working on a server in the first place, is there a way to only write on files located on servers ? (not on client side)

This is a MCreator plugin, not a mod. ;) Concerning the creation of files on the server-side only, it should be possible in the next version.

Ahah, yes indeed not a mod, can't wait for the next update then ^^

Maybe you could add auto Config.json generators

Is there a way to look for a file>

You can add "File with name "Name" in directory "directory" exist?"
this would be useful for mod to check if file already exists if not then make one :)

I already planned to add more getter of the File class. ;)

Also, welcome back :)

Good and thanks :D

can you do this soon?

thanks lots of

can you post a video tutorial on this plugin please, i am create a config to my mod to save blocks rank

Well i installed the plugin but i can't find the procedures...

You have to use MCreator 2020.5 otherwise, the plugin won't load.

You have to use MCreator 2021.3, It's Also Works

Can anyone release a video explaining how to possibly make a config file with this? I am trying to make one but I seem to be failing at it. Thank you

Check the second screen. This is a small example of how to make a config file (but you can obviously separate the writing and the reading in several procedures).

I saw the second photo. I just don't understand how it works. I'm trying to make a config to where I can disable or enable my ores from spawning into the world kind of like how other mods work. So I can make them better compatible with each other.

Very cool!! But is there a way to use itemstack in a json file?
