mods and plugins

[charred hull]

Plugins run on a different server type than mods do.
Vanilla versions runs on Fabric, while plugins run on a server type like Spigot/Paper.
Fabric doesn't know what a plugin is, and because of that won't load them :)

You'll basically have to find fabric mods that do the same thing to be able to use them

on the client side at the top of the log, fabric is recommending you do some things.

ok thankyou ! il look into it

[dapper delta]

the secret to logs are scroll to the bottom and see if there is one thing that says "here I am, i'm the reason this crashed!"

and if there is nothing making sense then and only then scroll to the top and look for "here I am" style statements

most of the time that's how it rolls

but there are times when it becomes downright evil, so ... https://kreezcraft.com/find-a-bad-mod/ becomes a skill worthy to have.

i will try to remember these tips ! thanks !

also, mods must match on both sides. client mods are only on the client and server mods are only on the server. most mods are universal ie both sided.

mod loaders should match too, not just type but also version.
