2.0 Transition

When you first start version 2.x of Progressive Difficulty, you'll get a message telling you to upgrade your config if you're upgrading from version 1.x. This is because the structure of the configuration of Progressive Difficulty has changed significantly between versions. Thankfully, you don't have to do a whole lot to make the new version work just like the old.

If you used default configuration:

If you never changed any configuration values in progressive difficulty, just delete the progressivedifficulty.cfg file in the config directory of your modpack. The same defaults are used in version 2, so you don't need to do anything else.

If you made changes to the default configuration:

In this case, you'll want to upgrade your configuration. Within the configuration directory, there should now be a progressivedifficulty directory, as well as the config file from your old version. Within the progressivedifficulty directory should be one region folder, called 'default', and the file 'progressivedifficulty.cfg'. Open 'progressivedifficulty.cfg' and set the values in this file to match the matching values in the old 'progressivedifficulty.cfg' file. In the default region, there will be two files, 'region.cfg' and 'default.cfg'. In a plain text editor of your choice, open 'region.cfg', 'default.cfg' and the old 'progressivedifficulty.cfg'. Copy all the values in the general section of the old 'progressivedifficulty.cfg' file into 'region.cfg', and all the rest (mod_* and control_* sections) into default.cfg.
