so my friends and I are trying to run some mods off of curseforge and ig it has a mod that requires neoforge. My question is, do I need to have neoforge or forge, or anything in particular preinstalled on the server to run the mods?

and ig the neoforge mods that we have are 1.21.4 and the preinstall options only go up to 1.21.2, will that be a problem?

Last I was aware, most mods that use neoforge should run on forge, and most forge mods should run on neoforge.
If all the mods you are running say neoforge, I'd stick with neoforge.
The Jar Menu does have 1.21.4.

oh, well i only see this. this is my first time using it, so idk if there is something different that i need to do

I'll poke someone about it missing during the checkout process.
Pick any of them for the moment and once purchase the server and log into your control panel, you can change it to the latest version.

okay, so all of my mods on curseforge can be run perfectly fine by just clicking the neoforge option for the server?

CurseForge is just the launcher/platform for finding mods and modpacks.
The individual mods/packs will indicate if they're Forge/NeoForge/Fabric/ect
Any Forge/NeoForge mods should work on either. Pick the one that most of the mods use.

okay, thank you very much
last question, should be the last, sorry, ive just never done this so i wanna do it right.
the "automated restarts," does that mean that once it restarts, it resets the entire server losing our stuff or is it just a quick restart and back to what we were doing?

Automated restarts is shutting the server down, then turning it back on at the same time every night. Not resetting any data.
Just turning it off and back on.
Support staff tells me the preinstall option for NeoForge 1.21.4 has been fixed too by the way.

okay, thank you once again
