# Your Options Shall Be Saved (YOSBS)<\/p>\n

Your Options Shall Be Saved (YOSBS) is a lightweight utility mod that lets modpack creators define default configuration files without overwriting player preferences<\/p>\n

Updating a modpack often resets custom settings like keybinds or mod configs, because most launchers replace the entire `config\/` folder<\/p>\n

YOSBS solves this by copying any file placed in `config\/yosbs\/` to its proper location only once on first launch \u2014 and never again<\/p>\n

This gives full control to the pack author:<\/p>\n

– Files inside `config\/yosbs\/` are treated as user-owned: copied once, then left untouched
\n– Files inside `config\/` behave as usual: they will be replaced on each update<\/p>\n

That way, you decide which configs should persist, and which should reset<\/p>\n

## Features
\n– **Zero-config**: just drop the defaults under `\/config\/yosbs\/\u2026` (or legacy `\/config\/yosbr`)
\n– Works for **any** file \u2013 `options.txt`, mod configs, `optionsshaders.txt`, etc
\n– Runs in the **pre-launch phase**, before Fabric\/Forge starts loading the rest of the mods<\/p>\n

## Compatibility & Installation
\n1. Fabric Loader \u2265 0.4.0 *(No Fabric API required)*
\n2. Minecraft 1.14 \u2013 1.21.x
\n3. Requires Java 8 or newer
\n4. Put the YOSBS jar in `mods\/` and launch once \u2013 the folder `\/config\/yosbs` is created automatically (or create it manually)<\/p>\n

## Usage examples<\/p>\n

| Want to ship\u2026 | Do this before first launch |
\n|—————|—————————-|
\n| A default `options.txt` | Place your file at `\/config\/yosbs\/options.txt` |
\n| A REI config | `\/config\/yosbs\/config\/roughlyenoughitems\/config.json5` |<\/p>\n
