The Mod Configuration Menu is a settings page for mods!
It provides a central location for mod configuration, accessible via the Pause menu.
ModSettings are stored in per-mod INI files under Data\MCM\Settings, making it easy to backup and restore settings and even change them outside the game if so desired should the mod support it.
Are you a modder? Check out the documentation for detailed information on creating MCM menus.
★ Features ★
- Configure more aspects of your mods than ever before - the MCM provides a range of controls such as checkboxes, steppers, dropdowns, sliders, buttons, text, and keybinds.
- Optimized for PC. The MCM steps far beyond what is allowed for consoles.
- No ESM/ESP. The MCM does not count towards your load order.
- Save-safe. The MCM never sinks its teeth into your savegame - any modifications, as with most F4SE plugins, are done in-memory.
- File-safe. No vanilla forms or files on disk are overriden. The MCM is completely standalone.
- Hotkey support and conflict detection. Assign hotkeys to mod actions to activate them on-the-fly.
★ Details ★
Each mod's menu lives in its own directory in Data\MCM\Config\ModName.
User settings are located at Data\MCM\Settings\ModName.ini.

★ Acknowledgements ★
Many thanks to the F4SE team for their tireless work extending the core feature-set of the game. The MCM would not be possible without it. Most modders make mods - these people make the tools that make other mods possible. They work behind-the-scenes; outside the limelight. Without them, the modding scene would be decidedly less interesting and very much more mundane.
