PIDS Preset#

Joban Client Mod supports creating a custom PIDS Preset through the use of Resource Packs.

Defining a PIDS Preset#

To get started, first you need to create a Resource Pack that can be recognized by Minecraft.

This can be done by creating a folder within your .minecraft/resourcepacks directory, then create a pack.mcmeta file with the following content:

{
    "pack_format": 13,// (1)!
    "description": "Your pack description here"// (2)!
}

pack_format refers to which Minecraft version this resource pack is designed for, see Minecraft Wiki for a full list of numeric versions.
description is the text that will appear in the resource pack selection screen.

Note on pack_format

Unless your pack also involves modifying other bits of Minecraft, the pack_format you filled in pack.mcmeta does not affect the functionalities as JCM resources works the same across all Minecraft versions.

Afterwards, create a new file named joban_custom_resources.json under [Your Resource Pack Folder]/assets/jsblock.
You should create any folder in between if it doesn't exists. (So create assets in [Your Resource Pack Folder], then create jsblock in assets)

Within the json, fill the following as a basis:

{
    "pids_images": [
        {
            "id": "change_me",
            "showWeather": false,
            "showClock": false,
            "background": "jsblock:change_me.png"
        }
    ]
}

As you can see, each PIDS Preset is defined as a JSON object within the pids_images array.
You may insert keys (such as showWeather and showClock in above) to configure the look of JSON PIDS Preset.

For the convenience, the chart below lists all available property within a PIDS Preset JSON object:
