Frostiful:Config File

The Frostiful config file is a bit of a beast, but this guide will help walk you through what each of the options do. Items in italics are the important options that are fairly straightforward and are the ones you most likely will want to adjust.

This page reflects the latest version of the config for Minecraft 1.21.x. Items documented here may not necessarily reflect what appears in an older version of Frostiful. Starting from Frostiful 2.2, removed options will be documented in #Removed Config Options.

Update Config

The update config is used to enable or disable automatic config updates when significant changes are made to the default config values.

Current config version currentConfigVersion: This just saves the current version of the config, you should not touch this.

Enable config auto updates enableConfigUpdates: Whether to allow the config to reset itself whenever the config is out of date. For most modpacks, I'd recommend turning this off.

Client Config

These are a set of client-side settings that contain options for things like accessibility, rendering, and the HUD. Changing these on a dedicated server will do nothing.

Frost overlay start percent (0-1) frostOverlayStart: Double between 0 and 1 that determines at what negative temperature scale the vanilla powder snow border overlay should start rendering at
Do cold heart overlay doColdHeartOverlay: Whether to render the cold heart overlay or not
Render water drip particles when wet renderDripParticles: Whether to render water dripping particles on wet players (does nothing if Scorchful is installed)

Removed Config Options

These reflect the removed config options from Frostiful, and their replacements (starting from Frostiful 2.2).

Notes

↑ ^1.0 ^1.1 ^1.2 The final value of the environment temperature change is calculated using the formula below. You can find a graphical representation on Desmos.
$B (T) = \frac{T - m a x T e m p - d e g r e e s P e r T e m p D e c}{d e g r e e s P e r T e m p D e c}$
$T e m p e r a t u r e C h a n g e (T) = \max (0, ceil (m u l t i p l i e r * B (T))$
