ForgeConfig Overload
by Mochi753
ForgeConfig Overload removes the minimum and maximum checks that Forge places on config entries, so settings can accept values beyond their usual limits.
What it does
Forge normally enforces minimum and maximum bounds on config entries such as IntValue and DoubleValue. This mod overloads that restriction layer, letting configs take values far outside the original range. Each entry it touches is changed so the game does not reject the extreme number before it is applied.
The mod is meant for experiments and for testing how chaotic settings behave. Its author states that it was never built to handle extreme values, so things may break in ways the normal game would not allow. It intentionally bypasses Forge's safety mechanisms, and the author gives no promises about stability. It is an unofficial modification, not affiliated with the Minecraft Forge project, and the author apologizes to the Forge developers for it.
The mod is released under the MIT License, and its source code and issue tracker are public. It is for Forge 1.20.1 only, and either side can run it, with neither side needing it. Back up worlds before enabling it, and use the mod at the user's own risk.
Key features
Bypassed value limits
Min and max validation on Forge config values is disabled, so entries accept amounts that the standard checks reject.
Extreme config settings
Settings that would be impossible under normal limits become selectable, for testing unusual configurations.
Safer broken values
The mod adds new configs and works to keep broken values from crashing, though stability is not assured.
Chaos testing
Configs can be pushed to edge cases to see how other mods and systems respond when given values beyond their limits.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Testing edge cases
Developers and tinkerers can set config values beyond their normal range to see how a mod reacts to them.
Chaotic experiments
Players who enjoy unpredictable settings can use extreme values to see what happens to their game.
Who it’s for: Modders testing how their configs handle extreme input, and players who want to experiment with chaotic settings. It suits test worlds, not long-running save files.
