Dependencies

What Universal Tweaksdeclares it needs, from the author’s own release metadata. A required one has to be installed alongside it or it will not load.

MixinBooterRequired. The Mixin Library for 1.8 - 1.12.2.ConfigAnytimeRequired. Allows Forge configurations to be setup at any point in time. Especially for developers that use Forge's configuration system during coremod/tweaker's loading stage.

Frequently asked

Does Universal Tweaks work on Minecraft 1.12.2?

Yes. 1.12.2 is the newest Minecraft version Universal Tweaks declares support for, and the claim comes from the author's own release metadata rather than from a compatibility list somebody maintains by hand.

Do I need to install Universal Tweaks on the client or the server?

Both. Every player needs it installed and so does the server, so anyone joining without it will be refused.

Which platform or loader does Universal Tweaks support?

Forge. A build for one platform or loader will not necessarily load on another, so this is the first thing to check before the Minecraft version.

Which Java version do I need for Universal Tweaks?

Among the supported Minecraft releases above, the highest recorded requirement is Java 8 or newer. Use the requirement for the exact Minecraft version you run; previews and snapshots may differ.

What does Universal Tweaks need to run?

It declares MixinBooter and ConfigAnytime as required, so those have to be installed alongside it or it will not load. Each one is linked in the dependencies section above.

What licence is Universal Tweaks under?

LGPL-3.0-only, as stated by the author on the platform we synced it from. Check the project's own page before redistributing or bundling it.

How do I install Universal Tweaks?

Install the matching loader first, then put the downloaded file in your mods folder and start the game. The loader, the mod and Minecraft all have to be on the same version, which is the usual reason a mod does not appear in game.

Where do I download Universal Tweaks safely?

Start with the author's page on Modrinth, which is where the data here is synced from. MCReference does not host or repackage files. When available, recorded download links go to the source for that release; verify the publisher, filename and any available checksum before running it.
