#Mods not being detected.

i wanted to set up a couple of mods that worked, but at least like 23? of the mods don't work, it says it isn't able to detect the mods in the zipfile itself which i took from curseforge of course. And so when i start the game and try to join the server it tells me a few mods aren't being detected but when i check inside of the modfile it says that they're all there.

Mods cannot be inside zip/rar files if placed in the mods folder. The mods folder only sees jar files.

#

if i get a zip from curseforge how do i make it so it detects all mods i have within the zip file?

#

Curseforge gives a zip file that contains files that a launcher would need to go download the modpack.

#

It's usually tiny in file size.

#

If the modpack has a server variant in the additional files tab (curseforge has this slightly hidden) then it has a set of files that you need to only run once on your PC so it goes and downloads all the needed files for a server.

feels like it was just like dragging the files like normal but idk

#

You downloaded the wrong type of modpack folder from Curseforge. This is just for other Curseforge clients to recognize what is in the modpack (through the modlist.hmtl)

#

The server pack export has the individual jar files from the mods

im throwing questions all around im so sorry 😭

#

if you are using the curseforge app, you can click the 3 dots next to the play button and select download server. if the mod pack has a server, you will be able to download its server pack.

been on this for hours :ssob

#

literally can not figure out what to do

#

sigh

celest tide
#

which mod pack is it?

#

wait

#

this is your mod pack, so naturally there's no server pack

#

please export your pack, give me the share code from it. i'll make a server pack for you.

#

i think that you might benefit from a https://kreezcraft.com/making-a-mod-pack/ and at the bottom of that article is links to making a server. it'll get you upto speed and you stop losing hair over it. In the article I used gdlauncher. but it translates easily modrinth and curseforge apps.

Making a Mod Pack

This is really easy to do. I remember when it was hard. Those days are long gone. You will need one of the following Mod Pack Launchers.

GDLauncher (GDL)

code for the modpack itself

#

while i do this, make sure your server is on forge 1.20.1, then stop it, delete the config and mods folders.

#

The zip with your config and mods https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PmJqPZ0m6f5x-0RLNyOm7o9twSp4mnE7/view?usp=drivesdk

@elder mural

1. stop your server
2. delete the config folder on the server
3. delete the mod folder on the server
4. delete world folder on the server
5. download this zip
6. upload it to the top of your server
7. once it is there, on the far right side is 3 dots, click the 3 dots
8. choose unarchive
9. start your server

celest tide

just follow what i've suggested, if your on forge 1.20.1, then do what I say and you'll be fine

#

if you don't see the world folder then you server never got far enough

#

the world folder is on the top level where the config and mods folder are

elder mural
#

yea i never even got to enter the world 😭

celest tide
#

it's possibly you didn't like your world being called world you renamed it

elder mural
#

oh no wait nvm i see it

elder mural
#

#
