Binary Search Mod Manager

Modpack tool for finding incompatabilities between mods via dynamic binary searches supporting toggling mods, exclusions, dependencies, and more!

Installation

• Install/Use Python 3.12 - 3.13
• Place the mod manager script in your modpack directory (in the folder that holds your mods folder)
• Run the script and provide input as suggested

Settings

Settings can be modified by editing the script at the top of the file

MODS_DIR = './mods/'
JAR = '.jar'
DISABLED = '.disabled'
COMPACT_LEN = 16                              # str len for mods compact display
COMPACT_PER_LINE = 5                          # number of mods to show per line compact display
STATE_FILE_DIR = 'binary_search_mod_manager/' # base directory for state files
STATE_FILE_EXT = '.bsmm'                      # file extension for state import/exports
AUTOSAVE_SEARCH_STATES = True                 # automatically save a separate state when narrowing the search
AUTOSAVE_UNNAMED_STATES = False               # automatically save states which have not been exported (named) in the session
FILE_DATE_FORMAT = "%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S"        # naming convention for files that format date and time

Dependency Detection

Supports auto-detection scanning for mod dependencies for Fabric, NeoForge, and Forge (1.13+) mod formats
Note: Scans mod metadata to register dependencies, however, some unspecified dependencies may be missed
