Description from the author on Modrinth

📖 About:

Better Mods Button adds the mods button back to the pause screen as in Forge versions prior to Minecraft 1.13, so it can be used to easily access in-game mod configuration (when available).

As a bonus, there are plenty of options for where and how exactly you want your mods button to be shown on screen (heavily inspired by Mod Menu). Showing a total mod count, as well as toggling the update notification glyph are both supported.

💡 FAQ:

Q: How do I configure this mod?
A: Install my Config Menus for Forge mod and do it directly in-game!

Q: What about a Fabric port?
A: Use Mod Menu by ProspectorDev instead.
