Apothitweaks
by Apothicon
Apothitweaks changes a set of vanilla Minecraft mechanics through many smaller tweaks, and its settings are kept in a single config file.
What it does
The Forge mod overhauls several vanilla mechanics and introduces a wide variety of smaller tweaks across the game. Enchanting power comes from bookshelves, chiseled bookshelves, candles and amethyst, and most enchanted books are found only in specific loot tables, so survival players obtain them through a limited set of routes. Several changes are controlled by options, and the mod can be disabled or adjusted for inaccurate skeletons, faster boats and the hunger healing overhaul.
Its settings live in a JSON file named apothitweaks config inside the config folder, which the game generates the first time Apothitweaks is launched. The mod is used in modpacks as well as standalone installs. Forge is the only loader, with a single game version, 1.20.1, and the latest file, 1.8.0, is dated 2024-11-12. Client and server both need Apothitweaks, and it is released under the MIT License, so the source code is publicly available.
