So I'm trying to play some modpacks with my girlfriend, but she's having this issue for some reason. We've tried everything, but it won't work for some reason. We know it is KubeJS bc when we remove the mod it works perfectly
#KubeJS having issues with Essential Mod

Forge is not the smartest. The criteria it judges 'version differences' on is not just the version number, but also what registry objects (like items and blocks) exist.
This means that when you add custom things with KubeJS, Forge can sometimes show a version mismatch error with the exact same versions shown on both sides.
The simple solution for this is to make sure that the startup_scripts folder is the same on client and server.
heady wren
So I'd have to send her that folder and get her to replace it with the one I sent?
finite fossil
yes
heady wren
Alright we'll try that
upbeat owl
are you using curseforge?
it often doesnt install packs correctly
heady wren
Yeah we use Forge
upbeat owl
yeah this issue is pretty much exclusive to CF
heady wren
Well, I download the pack, then send the code to her to share it and she downloads it from that
Doesn't matter if she downloads the .zip file tho bc that also never works
white carbon
Yeah we use Forge
Forge is a modloader. Curseforge is a website and launcher. Two different things.
There's also Neoforge, another modloader.
heady wren
Yeah fair, I just shorten Curseforge to Forge-
But yeah we use Curseforge
white carbon
OK. And you're 100% certain that when she downloaded the .zip from your startup_scripts folder, she unpacked it into the same place? Or did she just put the zip file itself in the folder?
heady wren
I sent her the code of the modpack from CF, and she downloaded it from there. It's worked every other time with any modpack that doesn't have KubeJS
The weird thing is, it's JUST with her. I've played the exact same modpack with another friend as well
upbeat owl
CF just doesnt always copy all the files correctly, not sure why, its been a bug on their side for years
we always recommend better launchers like Prism
white carbon
OK, well, as Lexxie said, sometimes CurseForge doesn't deliver all the correct folders, like the startup_scripts one. Can you check that you both have content inside your .minecraft/kubejs/startup_scripts folder, and if not, send her what you find inside.
heady wren
I sent her the files and asked her to replace it. I'm abt to grab dinner tho so I'll let you know how it goes
heady wren

In Prism, can you still play the same modpacks?
white carbon
Yes.
white carbon
It can grab modpacks from Curseforge, FtB, Modrinth, etc, and will install them with much more consistency (not missing or dropping files), and still do multiplayer on servers (or with Essential, if that's how you prefer to do multiplayer) even if the other person is using a different launcher.

If you're interested in the history of Prism, it used to be PolyMC before the developers had a disagreement. PolyMC is discontinued, but was the same thing. And before that, MultiMC, but again the developers had a disagreement. Basically, each time the name changed was because someone was kicked off the development team.
heady wren
Honestly I just want shit to work easily 😂
white carbon
Well, that's what Prism is here to do
upbeat owl
ye prism a lot more stable and reliable
white carbon
Oh, and unlike the Curseforge app or Modrinth app, the Prism app has no ads on it.
upbeat owl
and you have a dedicated cat button
heady wren
Alright I'll definitely look into it then
white carbon
Yeah, here's what mine looks like at the moment.
Mine are either all from Curseforge, FtB, or custom made by me or my GF

You can also change which cat appears in the background, too, although that's purely cosmetic and has nothing to do with how minecraft runs.

heady wren
There should only be one for the latest <:hmmm:609911633078124558>

upbeat owl
X86 for most people on windows
heady wren
Thanks
upbeat owl
Arm64 is mostly for phone processors and that kinda stuff
I think mac might be Arm64? Gonna check cuz I'm curious now
Oh ye it is arm64
