anyone knows why my files save as .zip instead of .jar when i download the mods??

[inner ginkgo]

ah ok

[opal cipher]

[red patio]

How to get your CurseForge app logs

1. Click the Create logs zip in the menu.
2. Drag and drop the zip file created to this channel.
3. Wait for someone to look at it so they can help you.

[opal cipher]

Probably modpacks and not mods

[strange stag]

hey sorry heard there was like a virus breach or smth goin on, is this suspicious? apperently the virus attacks the edge files

[opal cipher]

NLK, signing off.

[vital kettle]

is there any way to get a modpack as a .jar file?

[finite depot]

No, it created its own Edge folder for it self to not be found as easily. More information is in the articles linked in #📢︱news .

[strange stag]

so no virus?

[hearty rampart]

Thats not how that works you gotta download the mods and those are Jars [Also if you have the mod manager you can simply push install/Import to get the modpack as a whole]

[finite depot]

You can read the latest #📢︱news announcement for how to check if no virus.

[sharp pecan]

Just to double check as I've seen FTB discord send a message about it, everything is safe now right? Like so long as I download things now and haven't downloaded anything before (so glad I wasn't in the mood to play any mc in the past few weeks lol) I'll be fine?

[sleek sapphire]

You should be fine, I still recommend running the scanners in #📢︱news

[olive cape]

Hey guys, I uninstalled curseforge a few weeks ago, I've not really followed this whole situation, but is it safe to reinstall the standalone app right now? a few of my friends and I are setting up a life in the village 3 server

[untold musk]

Is there somewhere I can put in my crash report for support?

[sleek sapphire]

Should be fine but you should still run the two scanners in #📢︱news

[simple mountain]

hello. I am trying to set up a forge server on linux. But i keep getting an error. can anyone help?

[lyric linden]

If I add files to my modpack and publish them will they get approved outside of the time the team is awake

[lofty juniper]

Yo, If I do a fabric reset I Will delete all the malware?

[honest ocean]

can i download mods now?

[sleek sapphire]

I don't think so, they'll get to it during hours of operation

[sleek sapphire]

No, you should still run the scanners in #📢︱news

[sleek sapphire]

Should be good to go! Just check out #📢︱news and run the scanners

[still orchid]

so is curse safe to use like it used to or what someone please explain this to me in layman terms

[surreal moss]

its relatively safe now but still use the detector tools every now and then or when you download new things

[still orchid]

why would i still need them?

[still orchid]

elaborate please Luxnae

[sleek sapphire]

As long as you run the two scanners once you should be fine since curseforge has been scanned and have taken down or got any infected files fixed so you can't download them anymore

Although it's still good to monitor for a couple days in case any new news

As of current knowledge as long as you perform the two scans once then yes

In #📢︱news there's an article that has two programs to run, run them and if it says you're clean then you're good to go

Of course!

[digital roost]

Is anyone able to help me make curseforge work/installed seen as ive previously installed it with help from someone on discord alongside the mc create mod but it just would not work so ive uninstalled it but if anyone would help me set up create mod that would be amazing.

[safe knoll]

So I deleted my whole mod folder basically and cursefoge didn’t delete what I don’t have in my game. I was wondering if there was a way to reset it sorta so I could redownload some of the mods I deleted?

[summer junco]

so you essentially want to start completely over? like have a blank mods folder & blank my mods on curseforge?

[merry oak]

From the launcher can I download preview files? Or only stable ones?

[plain bronze]

So I downloaded the two scanners. With the .jar scanner, it was suggested to me on another discord that I just try scanning my entire C:\ disk, since the malware can spread. But when I tried that, it didn't work, because some files/folders were denying the scanner access. I WAS able to scan the .minecraft directory though, where the game files and mods are at, and that was all clean. And the other scanner came up as clean as well.

[warm vessel]

reinstalling curseforge and bitdefender keeps flagging the installer as malware, is this a false positive or nah
it probably is but im just being safe lol

[vital kettle]

anyone knows if when you download a mod but there isnt a "Mod Loaders" on the file.. does it still work with "forge"??

[rich flint]

curseforge is fine - some people do need to allow it past overly aggressive antivirus

[rich flint]

no. all java minecraft mods require a modloader system

perhaps i misunderstand the question

where did you get this 'mod'? is it a JAR file?

[plain bronze]

Since all of my mod and directory mod files are clean, do I even need to worry about scanning all of my C:\ disk?

[rich flint]

if that is all your mod files, and you did the 'check' tool - then you're fine

[upper sundial]

Hey, has plain old optifine been affected by the current issues? It's not on curseforge so I don't think so, but I wanted to double check.

[vital kettle]

you see how only 1 of them say "forge".. and yes it is a .jar file

[rich flint]

no

[upper sundial]

Cool, thank you

[plain bronze]

Because as I previously stated, I was suggested to scan all of my C:\ disk because the malware spreads, but it won't let me do that, as some files and folders deny access. But for the malware to spread, it would have to have been on any mod files that I downloaded. So I think that suggestion was really meant for those who did have infected mod files.

[rich flint]

well that's silly. it's a forge 1.19.2 mod (at least the newest published file). internal to all mod files there is a special file to tell things what version it's for. for newer forge it's called mods.toml

[rich flint]

it will either be in mod JAR files or have installed itself to the OS which the quick check tool can do

[tight verge]

It literally feels bad when I was waiting in making a server for 2 years and 2 weeks after I started then this situation happens

I hope neither me or my friends are affected

[rich flint]

did you check the files you had used?

[tight verge]

I will download that specially made tool scanner after Avast will finish scanning system, probably he will show nothing anyways (I meant avast)

ye just finished

this scan is that fast? It literally finished immediately

this second scanner also didnt found anything, I check folders .minecraft and from launcher

[rich flint]

yes it's a little widget to specifically look for the things the malware would install

the checker

[tight verge]

thats huge relief tho, my PC is quite new, would be painful to deal with viruses

[rich flint]

as the post in #📢︱news said only about 6000 downloads of infected files was done. statistically most people are ok

[tight verge]

ye but I have one of the reported mods, that got me scared

it was automatically downloaded by launcher so i didnt even knew which version specifically

[solid mason]

just double checkin, i ran all the scanner apps n checked all modpacks i got n nothin came up in the scanner. i should be fine w continuing/playing modded right?

[rich flint]

yes

[solid mason]

one of the servers i play on does have one of the mods listed as an infected mod. would that potentially infect me aswell or not?. im pretty sure the mod is serverside only cus i dont have it on my pack. its the Anti ChatReport

[rich flint]

it doesn't travel through multiplayer if it's only on a server side - regardless though - use the checker and JAR scanner in #📢︱news

[solid mason]

servers not run by me, but i did play on it yesterday and did a check on my end but nothing was infected

[rich bronze]

So are we good to play a modpack as long as its cleared? like is it plugged up etc?

[sleek sapphire]

Should be good as long as you ran the two scanners in #📢︱news

[novel oxide]

my curseforge still doesnt work

it is no new updates...

[nova valley]

i just moved from a pc to a laptop but i dont have any of my modpack profiles is there anyway to transfer it

[young bone]

A flash drive

[nova valley]

ok I will try thanks

[sharp latch]

how do switch accounts i logged into the wrong one

[spark valve]

Hello I keep getting "{The game crashed whilst rendering overlay" and I followed a link to this disc

[rich flint]

assuming this is modded minecraft launched using the curseforge app?

[spark valve]

Yes indeed

[rich flint]

head to #🧱︱mc-other-help and post a log from the profile. will link there how to get it.

[wild axle]

I'm following up on this. I've had a bit of a dig around, I tried unpacking the 'forge-43.2.11.jar' file I have in my versions folder, but that still just contains the vanilla datapack content.

[rich flint]

you misunderstood what the problems were

[red wadi]

ok, so one of the mods listed in the article (#22 "additional weapons plus") i downloaded on the 26th on a macOS computer, and scanning the jar file on windows returns a clean result every time. is it safe to play?

[wild axle]

If you're on Mac you should be safe. There was no Mac payload.

[rich flint]

nothing about forge (core files), or minecraft (core files), or the curseforge app or website were effected by this. what was infected were mod JAR files which were on the curseforge database - which are in profiles in the curseforge modding directory set in settings

[red wadi]

so if the mod file comes back clean then im good>

[red wadi]

on windows now, scanning the jar

[slender echo]

yo, any1 knows about a create optimized server?

[wild axle]

OH, this has nothing to do with the breach. I'm trying to find the datapack files, specifically the forge namespace tags for the Vanilla items, for a project.

[rich flint]

use a game channel for this pls

[slender echo]

where is it_

[rich flint]

ah ok. this is not the Forge discord.

?mc-wording

[red patio]

Please use the correct terms - it allows us to understand and help you faster

Forge = Minecraft Forge, this is a modloader often just called "Forge".
Fabric = Fabric MC, this is a modloader, often just called "Fabric".
CurseForge = A Website/App that has content for games and serves as a mod manager.
Mods = Individual mod files.
Modpacks = Multiple mods put into the mods folder or downloaded from CurseForge.

[wild axle]

Yeah I know, someone directed me here cause apparently the location of this stuff varies launcher to launcher.

[tough ridge]

is it confirmed the malware isnt on mac?

[rich flint]

\curseforge\install\libraries\

[rich flint]

the infected files do not do their thing on OSX - you may have some of the files but they would not do anything except work normally

[red wadi]

ok but if the file comes back clean on windows is it safe to play

[rich flint]

if the JAR scan is clear and the checker tool program is clear then no malware infected files are present or were run.

[thin plover]

is everything generally safe now?

[mighty flax]

I have been watching you most of the day repeat exactly what the article says out of the kindness of your heart just trying to help people 😭 bless you

[spark valve]

everytime i change the allocateed memory it goes back?

[tough ridge]

xaero minimap and simplu voice chat were never infected?

[spark valve]

and everytime i launch it goes back down

[wild axle]

That's done it! Thanks!

[rich flint]

hmmm. not sure. where are you looking at that number after launching

[spark valve]

i turn it to 6000 or 5000 and it keeps going to this

[rich flint]

the pic isn't the regular default value 🤔

[strong trench]

is this finished? does anyone know because it has been like this for 25 minutes

[rich flint]

no the scanning tool reported it couldn't open the first mod file in that mods folder

Hi there all I have no idea if there was something like that here before(probably yes) but I can't change my version of my mods on mc, I do not have the option to do so in the 3 dots, I can change it for the better mc folder but not on my custom one

[digital roost]

You need to have someone call out a twitter user then because they are actively saying its been hacked. https://twitter.com/themisterepicyt/status/1666282742064226305

TheMisterEpic (@TheMisterEpicYT)

Curseforge, the popular website to download minecraft mods, has supposedly been compromised.

Curseforge mod creators are reporting that their accounts have been hacked/compromised, and are uploading malicious files, warning users not to update any modpacks.

Also its being retweeted like wild fire which will affect trust and PR. (This might actually be a re-tweet.)

[surreal moss]

this the dude who made a vid about tlauncher right?

[red patio]

tlauncher is a piracy supporting launcher, we do not provide support for it. Talking about or attempting to get support for it will result in a ban as per our rules. See: #📛︱rules #4

[digital roost]

I have no idea. I just know bad pr when I see it.

[upper root]

probably, if its the guy im thinking of, he makes a lot of videos with information that could probably be fact checked better

[digital roost]

This is the internet though - I suggest maybe get a curse rep to make an official tweet just to qualm the sane users and maybe shake up the fake ones,

[surreal moss]

yep the same dude

honestly his known to be like that

[digital roost]

Fear mongering can lead to product destruction and it already seems like 30 percent of users are going to modrinth now (This is making mod pack upkeep and creation a nightmare)

[rapid kelp]

I've never had issues with curseforge, idk how it could possibly be compromised

I thought it was fake.

bet you weren't here when it all happened the other day

How do I rid my PC of this virus?

so was curseforge compromised yes or no? This is supposed to be addressed by a PR rep normally.

i think we have different definitions of compromised...
i mean that at no point did attackers have access to higher permissions than they are supposed to in terms of cf admin and access
not that they managed to get around the virus scans that are in place and upload something bad

!binarysearch

[red patio]

How to find a faulty mod/plugin/addon by using 'Binary Search' or '50/50'

A binary search is a way of finding a faulty mod/plugin/addon when you have a lot of them, but without having to remove them one-by-one.

The procedure is simple:

1. Take half of the existing mods/plugins/addons, and move them out, into another folder.
2. Run the game.
3. Does the issue still persist?
   • If YES: Repeat from step 1 with the current things.
   • If NO: Swap out the current things with the ones you moved out, and repeat from step 1.
4. Repeat this process until the problematic mod(s)/plugin(s)/addon(s) have been found.

[dense zinc]

the modpack was at 81 mods and the mods I added put it up to 124

[upper root]

this should lower the amount of restarts you have to do to the minimum

[dense zinc]

I don't know why I didn't think to take the mods I added and put it into a separate modpack

hopefully it works

Yup, I also re installed the app too

how are you installing it?

It is a mod pack that I made from mods that I chose, I could do it 2 weeks ago but not anymore

I have the basic options, not the server etc options

Is forge itself safe. Can i install it?

(From the official site)

[young bone]

Forge and CurseForge aren’t the same thing

[clever dune]

So it should be completely fine as long as the download is from download.curseforge.com?

[calm plover]

There is always a risk - for safety nolifeking askes for you, may can take time
I would classify these detections (especially because all other known virus scanners do not detect it) as no malware.

[calm plover]

Ah you did not checked a jar - you checked the app oh mb sry - yes when you downloaded it from the right spot everything is fine

[celest lantern]

There are no cases in which user got infected with the current security measures by CF
although that dosnt mean the problem is 100% solved, but it should be save to play modded Minecraft rn

[left herald]

ok thank you mr sir

[celest lantern]

u have to use a updated version (1.20 it has to match) otherwise it wont work

[hollow tapir]

but normally when the game doesn't work it doesn't even open in that case the game opens but they are not there

[celest lantern]

doesnt matter the version has to match but if u would use the curseforge app it will make most things like that automatically

[surreal canyon]

I haven’t ran curseforge in months should I be safe?

[hollow tapir]

I thought it didn't change or not use it

[celest lantern]

I scan my anti virus and it says cannot scan 1203 password protected files

Or encrypted files

And they belong to the mc launcher

Idk if that’s normal

[celest lantern]

most antivirus programs cant even find the malware so try using the detection tool ...

[surreal canyon]

Oh ok

When creating a modpack does it allow you to choose a snap shot version?

[rich flint]

you can't make modpacks for release candidates - i think that's what you mean

curseforge only uses releases

same with forge

hey, i made a custom profile modpack with 130 mods and whenever i try and load it up i loads to the point of music playing but never gets past the mojang loading screen. when it eventually crashes i get and error code and "Description: Rendering overlay

[steady mango]

What loader u trying to use. Fabric or forge

There was a hint that the infection started slowly back in April, so any mod you downloaded between then and now but haven't virus checked could still be an issue. There's more info the article linked in #📢︱news.

[drowsy loom]

Hey!

[drifting latch]

Should I play my modded profile again?

I checked using both scanners

Said all clear

None were the affected mods

?

Im afraid lol

[calm plover]

Hey, I think the virus cant affect you - Im not sure, but it seems like it should not work, also we dont provide support for android so maybe try to inform you - I can only say, as far as i understand how the malware works, it would make no sense for it to be affcted on android

[drifting latch]

I wanna know if im good to go, is there a risk of still getting stage 1 going if the jar scanner found nothing

[calm plover]

what happens when you create a new profile?

[drifting latch]

yes

[digital roost]

hi, i have a question. if i uninstal curseforge will my mods dissapear?

[drowsy loom]

You can put the mods on a usb drive if you have any

[digital roost]

soo they will dissapear

?

[calm plover]

I done it some times with a backup, and I think nope they will not disappear, but I would make a backup anyways

[lean juniper]

Can someone help me with this problem?

[drifting latch]

I used all the tools

[calm plover]

Then you will be fine if nothing detects something

[drifting latch]

u sure?

[calm plover]

Did you read #📢︱news ?

[lean juniper]

Can any moderator help me with my problem?

Is Jade & BSL effected by the vrus incident?

[drifting latch]

This is my problem, everyone says different things

I cant figure out if I should play my modded game yet or not

🥲

[lean juniper]

So I heard that the virus affects Linux and since Android is based on Linux, that's why I asked, do you still think it can't affect me?

[drifting latch]

I had like every answer from each person i asked :,)

I wanna play my modded game but I dont want there to be a chance of my getting the virus

there are mobile viruses. This is not one

[calm plover]

Its based on some things which only works on the pc, but im also not sure - may try to find some informations in the world wide web, I can also ask the other mods for you

[drifting latch]

I dont even know anymore

was the abyss chapter 2 affected?

Its discord server linked is the luna pixel server so

[lean juniper]

Please ask them I'm nervous what it can do on my phone

[drifting latch]

ahhasdnbasdhbnsauhdbnasudnbasouhdin

[digital roost]

hi, i need to ask something

now i can download the mods from the site or are there still problems?

damn

[calm plover]

there are generally so few viruses for cell phones, you really don't need to worry about that

This Virus also affecteds only Linux and Windows, so I would say you are fine (also saw no one who got affected by this on android)

[coral ridge]

Hi I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this so if that's the case, please let me know. I created a modpack for a Youtube series of mine and have been working on putting it on curseforge for a week now. I've been correcting everything the person/bot (not sure which) suggests. The only thing I've been super stuck on is the name of the project. Every name change I've made, they tell me the name is either against a rule, or doesn't describe the pack enough, etc. I'm trying to come up with a project name my viewers can understand is the official modpack. Was wondering if someone can help me with this? Happy to provide screenshots and such.

[calm plover]

Can you name the name^^?

[coral ridge]

Yes. The first name I gave it which my viewers would recognize was MCA Reborn+. I did several versions of that then tried Randomobsessor's Modpack last. As in, that's what it is right now and I still got that message.

[calm plover]

Randomobsessor's Modpack is to uniform
Also we dont allow "Modpack" as a modpack name, bec this is obvious
Also before for what does "MCA" mean?

[coral ridge]

Okay so would I be able to use "Pack" or something similar instead?
MCA stands for Minecraft Comes Alive. Sorry forgot to mention I started first with the full name being Minecraft Comes Alive Reborn+ then went through different versions of it.

[calm plover]

You cant actually include "minecraft" as a modpack name, bec it is for minecraft yeah

I think Pack is also not alowed but im not sure

[coral ridge]

Yes I understand that. It was explained pretty early on in the process. Which is weird since the name of the mod itself has the name Minecraft in it.
I also just searched for Modpacks with the word "Minecraft" in it and there are tons which makes this whole rule a bit more weird to me. Do you have an explanation for that?

[sonic ether]

Hey guys I'm trying to run the virus scanner for Linux on my steam deck as I play Minecraft on there, due to the recent thing about java files being infected with malware.

It asks me what I want to open the detection tool with but I don't really know much about Linux so I'm not sure what I use to execute the file

hey how can i give my frend my modpack that we can play it together?

[young bone]

?mc-packshare

[red patio]

Two ways to share a modpack you made with others

:small_blue_diamond: Export and Share - For Friends / Small Groups

1. Click the Icon for the modpack.
2. Click the button next to play.
3. Click Export.
4. Select the files that should be included.
5. Send the zip to the people that want it! They can follow the instructions in !mc-installpack to install the pack.

:small_orange_diamond: Upload to Curseforge - For Public Release to Everyone

This option will make your pack public to EVERYONE, it comes with extra requirements and will take some effort to set up.

1. Go to create a new project
2. Fill out the information with a proper description of the pack. This should allow anyone to understand what the pack is.
3. Click the Icon for the modpack in the CurseForge app.
4. Click the button next to play.
5. Click Export.
6. Select the files that should be included.
7. Open your Project that you made on the CurseForge site and Upload the file you just made.
8. Wait for Moderation & Sync so it can show up in the client! (See !sync for limitations and !status to learn about the moderation process and how long it will take to approve/decline)

[young bone]

🔹

[weak nimbus]

thx but how i send the first way

i exportet it but were is it?

[young bone]

It’d be in your downloads folder

[weak nimbus]

its not there

[young bone]

As long as you didn’t make it save elsewhere

[weak nimbus]

ok i have it

how do i send it

[young bone]

You can just send it over discord

[uncut thicket]

how do i use the bot to scan a latest.log file?

[young bone]

The file you have does not contain the mods themselves, the CF app and a few other applications read a manifest in the file

[young bone]

What bot are you talking about

[sacred lantern]

I also don’t think you unzip the export right? Don’t you just upload the entire zipped file?

[uncut thicket]

Idk but didnt you guys have some kind of bot that will check latest.log files? Or do mods do that manually?

[young bone]

You post a log here, the bot takes it and puts it on a paste site for us to read if we’re on mobile

[uncut thicket]

ohh ok

[red patio]

Hi. I'm pretty sure this about curseforge. I'm hosting a server on forge itself and I cannot add mods even when I put it in the folder is it because i selected the minedcraft server jar instead

ah yep it was my badd I dont need help anymore

[lyric linden]

i uploaded a modpack file and its not apearing in curse forge after it got aproved

[young bone]

Give a link to the pack

[lyric linden]

https://legacy.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/better-realism-with-a-hint-of-adventure-magic

[young bone]

Give it some time to sync

[lyric linden]

its been more than 16 min tho

[young bone]

I can’t control how it works, you just have to wait

[lyric linden]

ok

[craggy silo]

how the heck can modpack devs have full rights too there modpacks when 99.9 perent of the mods are made by others?

[potent zodiac]

they have right over their modpacks not their mods I am pretty sure

[craggy silo]

ohhh

[potent zodiac]

Modpacks are their work, a lot of configuration, customisation of the UI and stuff (if applicable) etc. goes into making a modpack

Individual mods are still owned and copyright of their own devs

[kindred frigate]

HeyHey, I have a question regarding Better Minecraft. How do I know which BM version do I have installed (BMC1, BMC2, etc)?

[potent zodiac]

They all use different Minecraft versions

BMC1 is for 1.16.5, BMC2 is for 1.18.2 and BMC3 for 1.19.x

and it says it on their instance name if you use launchers like curseforge or ATLauncher

[glossy bolt]

does anyone know if bukkit is ok yet i just need a yes or no or idk

[upper root]

it is fine

[glossy bolt]

ok

ty

[potent zodiac]

damn mods and further are active here
Otherwise the other servers I have been on has their mods always on DND and never appear in a convo

[kindred frigate]

I see. Thanks @potent zodiac -- MC Version is 1.16.5 so that's BMC1. I'm kind of being paranoid here, but to be clear, only BMC3 was affected by the virus correct? I also did a quick scan with the Overwolf program, but I wanted to triple check

[potent zodiac]

I am not sure which one was infected

but

[kindred frigate]

https://support.curseforge.com/en/support/solutions/articles/9000228509-june-2023-infected-mods-detection-tool/#Live-list-of-confirmed-mods-that-were-infected-(Last-Updated---06/07/2023-23:54-UTC) mentions BMC3

[potent zodiac]

the modpacks have been updated by LPS and clear of any infections

And curseforge has also taken down infected projects

so just install the latest BMC1 or whichever one you want to use

And have fun

[uncut thicket]

help with getting past this?

[potent zodiac]

first post this in #🧱︱mc-other-help

[uncut thicket]

oh ya mb

[digital roost]

how long till they accept my mc modpack project file?

[little swift]

why my game crashed when i play better mc bmc3 or medieval mc mmc3 ?

[ember sphinx]

how do I launch 2 minecraft profiles at the same time?

[young bone]

You don’t

[digital roost]

i mean you can tho

you need 2 accounts

[ember sphinx]

if I did have two account how would I do it?

[digital roost]

im pretty sure you need 2 minecraft launcher open at the same time to different minecraft paths

dont think it works with curseforge tho

[ember sphinx]

oh

iv been able to get 2 normal mc's open at once so I thought maybe you could do it with forge too

[potent zodiac]

you can I suppose

You'd need to do the same with the modded stuff

I suppose you need two profiles to AFK or something?

I was about to suggest you minihud mod but it's only for fabric

Minihud has a fake player feature

is it minihud or tweakaroo?

Or is it carpet?!

[pallid remnant]

This is a question (I won't say this is based on #mod-hunting, it has to do with 'Storage') but when my 'Minecraft' Game loads, when I have installed mods, it says I have a certain limit of storage (Around 3.2 Thousand Megabites, Which is about 3 Gigabites) How do I get more data in?

[potent zodiac]

It might be carpet because minihud and tweakaroo are both client side mod

Yeah carpet is available for forge too

well a fork of it

[potent zodiac]

do you mean Ram?

[pallid remnant]

My RAM is 32 GB, but no... WHen you load up a game, and it 'Loads' in your mods, it would say you would have a certain amount of Data

I went to check how much data I have it put into, but its put into my 'WIndows Drive' which has limited Data, how do I switch it to my other Drive? (Which has up to 2 Terabites, or 800 GB left.)

[ember sphinx]

I want to afk while still being able to play other servers

[potent zodiac]

you can use carpet mod

There is a fork of it for Forge

[pallid remnant]

I was wondering why some of my games were losing frames, its because its all put into my 'Windows Drive' I need to switch it over to my '2 TB' Drive for it to load more smoothly, but I do not know how to do so, For CurseForge/ Minecraft I mean

[ember sphinx]

k ill try it thx for suggestion

[potent zodiac]

you use player command of it to summon a fake player

[ember sphinx]

im trying sandboxie rn

[potent zodiac]

Oh I understand it now DA

well if I am not wrong you can choose the path for your individual instance

by going to the settings of that particular instance

then change it to your desired destination

[pallid remnant]

Nvm, I think I found out, but lets see 'If' it works

[potent zodiac]

I have never heard of it but you can use carpet it's a really awesome mod with tons of features!

[ember sphinx]

yeah I just learned about it and watched the full video on the mod page today

I was dissapointed to find out its fabric only

but ill check out the fork you said

[potent zodiac]

There is a foge fork of it

It's by redstoneguy I suppose

[compact ivy]

Im having major problems with an Exit Code 1 trying to load up a custom modpack, does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this or if its a known problem?

[coral ivy]

The app cannot install yet-another-config-lib correctly

as it installs the forge version in fabric profiles

at least for 1.20

This is alll

bye gl for yall

[compact ivy]

i have the pack set on 1.19.2

ive confirmed all the mods are for 1.19.2, and ive even attempted just loading up one mod

still nothing

[potent zodiac]

always send log not the exit code, exit code 1 just means an error

[digital roost]

is this normal for not being accepted yet

[pallid remnant]

Alright, I found my issues that (No one was helping me with all this time when I was asking, XD)

I dont know if you were talking to me when you mentioned 'Settings' Sugar.

But here is what my 2 issues were, to why I had soo much frame issues

First, My Hard Drive was set to my normal one, not the Second Hard Drive, AKA, my 'Normal HD' is maxed at 500 GB, have about 100 Left, and my 'Secondary HD' has about 2 TBs, I have about 800 GB left on that, thats the first thing I needed to do

Second, which I never knew about till just a moment ago, my 'MB' Memory, for Curseforge' was set to a limit of 4K MB, which I did not know about

I increased it to max, which is about 17K MB, which is about 17 GB, that helped a lot with my Frames

Now I can play Modded games fairly well now, even with normal Graphics, which I had always used to turn down

Again, I dont know if you were talking to me 'Sugar' when you mentioned 'Settings' but either on purpose or on accident, Thanks a lot.

[potent zodiac]

I was talking to you

[pallid remnant]

Alright.

[potent zodiac]

And quite honestly no idea what you said in the last

I have no experience with curseforge Launcher

[drowsy shard]

hay i want to install forge 1.18.2 on my minecraft hosting site i installed the 1.18.2 forge file and rename it server.jar but for some reason its installs the 16.5 forge can anyone help how can i fix this

[pallid remnant]

Quick question, does this Discord have 'Pic Perms' as in you need Permission to post Pictures?

If you dont, I'll just post what I mean

Or if I mean this discord doesn't

[compact ivy]

i dont either, i keep finding problem after problem and no knowledge on why i keep getting certain erros

[pallid remnant]

The errors are annoying, but at least my 'Frame' issue, 'FPS' is now fixed

[compact ivy]

ive spent almost a full day doing research and trying to find out why my modpack wont launch

[digital roost]

^

[compact ivy]

and ive tried everything ive seen

still nothing

[pallid remnant]

This is what I mean't

[digital roost]

thats too much

[pallid remnant]

This was set at 4K last time

4K last time prevented me from having good frames, since the amount of mods I usually download, caps out at about 5 - 7K MB

[potent zodiac]

that says java settings! so that means that is Ram

I am so confused

[pallid remnant]

Someone else might need to explain it, but all I can tell you is after I switched the Drives, from Windows to the HD of 2TB, and I changed that 'Java Settings MB' from 4K to well, what it shows in the picture, my Frame issue was fixed

Well, since that is fixed now, time to load some mods for my 'Scape & Run Parasites' Game... Love that mod, But I need much more mods (Which I know what to download) to have fun in it

[wise musk]

java settings, specifically for curseforge, you can (and should) set your ram to whatever you want, ideally 4,000 or more is recommended for modded minecraft

[potent zodiac]

I know that!!!

that's what I am saying

[wise musk]

then, what are you confused about?

[compact ivy]

is anyone able to help me figure out why my modpack wont launch?

ive tried so many things and im unsure why i keep getting error codes

[wise musk]

we could help more if we knew what the error codes were, please post them

[compact ivy]

crash report doesnt seem to be anything different unless im majorly overlooking it

[potent zodiac]

share the logs

!mc-logs

[red patio]

How to get your profile logs on CurseForge for support

1. Right-click the modpack profile icon OR click the button in the modpack profile.
2. Click Open Folder.
3. Open the logs folder.
4. Drag and drop the FILE named latest OR debug into discord.

[potent zodiac]

and in #🧱︱mc-other-help this channel is for curseforge support

[rancid sleet]

Is there any people who are good at making large modpacks, I wanna do one myself but I always end up having a variety of issues

[potent zodiac]

Well you might want to check out #1032223688180895804 to find people

Also if you encounter problems, you can always ask in #🧱︱mc-other-help

[rancid sleet]

Alright

[stiff musk]

Hi, I got affected by the recent virus and am having troubles removing it.
(To clarify, I am on Windows 11) I can locate the folder "Microsoft Edge" but I am unable to remove it, as it doesn't show up when I reveal hidden files.

[rancid sleet]

If you use the programmes you should have the option to remove them no?

[potent zodiac]

yeah that is something that's happening

Nope

[rancid sleet]

Ah

[potent zodiac]

They only tell you where they are

[rancid sleet]

That is very annoying

would an anti virus/anti malware service do the trick? Or does it not work?

[potent zodiac]

you can take your laptop to your nearest "official" service center

[stiff musk]

I am on a desktop

[potent zodiac]

it doesn't

[potent zodiac]

Oh

[rancid sleet]

Use them muscles

[potent zodiac]

Well some mod would reply

[rancid sleet]

Or buy a dolly

[potent zodiac]

I did try everything to be able to remove those files but just couldn't

but if you run windows scanner

the defender

it will remove one of the files

[stiff musk]

Ok, I'll try it out 👍

[potent zodiac]

probably because it did on someone else I was talking to

But other files not so much

[muted scroll]

it is true, that there are viruses in mods on curseforge?

[potent zodiac]

were*

[bleak flame]

I actually just joined the discord to ask if the virus issue was solved

[rancid sleet]

Not anymore but yes there was

[potent zodiac]

yep

[rancid sleet]

It has been solved but curseforge suggest running the scanners just to be safe

[potent zodiac]

Check the #📢︱news

[rancid sleet]

It won’t take longer than 10 minutes tops

[potent zodiac]

I just remembered what a pain in the ass harddrives are 😅

[rancid sleet]

Lmao

They are good tho

[potent zodiac]

I shifted to SSDs a few months back and damn are they fazt

fast*

[potent zodiac]

other then being cheap, not really

[rancid sleet]

Welp I’ll still take that as a win because I’m broke

[potent zodiac]

it's 6 in the morning why am I still here 😰

[potent zodiac]

😂

I have one as well and use it for mass storage

[rancid sleet]

1:32 for me

[potent zodiac]

night?

[rancid sleet]

You just reminded me I will eventually need to get another drive

[rancid sleet]

Yup

[rancid sleet]

My pc only came with 1TB

[potent zodiac]

save some money and get an SSD

you will fall in love with it

[rancid sleet]

I have 1

[potent zodiac]

Oh

that is great!

I just bought a new desktop a few months back and installed SSD in it

And when I booted into it

I was just sooooo shocked at the speed

2-3 max flashes and bam I am in

On HDD I could drink my whole cup of tea waiting for it to boot

[rancid sleet]

Lol

It does feel far faster

[small crater]

Does Norton remove the Malware if detected or does Antiviruses get blocked?

[formal bane]

Where can i find the Jar Malware Scanner for Linux if there is one

[stiff musk]

Update on trying to remove the files from my pc: I contacted my friend who knows a bit about code and he said to use a powershell command to directly remove the folder and its files

However, when I did this (runnning powershell in administrator mode just in case) I was denied access to delete the virus' files

[rancid sleet]

Is curseforge still running?

Because my friend tried deleting the files and completely forgot to close curseforge first

[stiff musk]

I haven't opened curseforge

[rancid sleet]

Hm, is your account an administrator

If yeh then that’s about as far as my advice goes lol

[stiff musk]

yes, it is

[rich flint]

the files have nothing to do with curseforge actually. sure the app originally downloaded them but that's just about the extent

[warm vessel]

use the detection tool to see if you have stages 1 2 and 3, afterwards if you do immediately follow the paths of the malware files and remove them, if they dont appear turn off hiding of protected operating system files or foldere and show hidden folders

afterwards use the jar infection scanner and try to scan your whole pc if possible, delete any jars it flags

[stiff musk]

Sounds good, I'll update if there's still issues

[digital roost]

with the viruses goin around im not suure whats safe to download me and my friend want to play Better MC [Forge] - BMC1

im not sure what is safe and what isnt and how to check for potental issues

[rich flint]

all files on the curseforge database were scanned for the malware you're referring to and any found were removed. see #📢︱news . any files currently downloadable have been scanned and do not contain it.

[old pine]

Hey does anyone know how far back this situation goes?

[digital roost]

oh ok good 🙂 thank you for the help sorry for sending in both channels

How to tackle Network Issues

Please try the following step(s) to figure out the cause/solution to your network issues:

1. Restart the CurseForge app
2. Restart your computer
3. Disable any programs that interfere with your connection (VPN, ping tunnels, antivirus, firewall etc)
4. Restart your router and modem.
5. Attempt using a different connection if possible.
6. Reinstall Curseforge.

[warm patrol]

i pasted the powershell code it told me to use to check if i had any infected files but it only stayed up for a moment no log has appeared

oh nvm my original install of the Better MC modpack isn't there anymore. must have been able to delete it wiht other modpacks i wasn't using

only one i had that was on that list

my AV doesn't show anything out of the ordinary

[rich flint]

use the OS checker and JAR file scanner tools provided in #📢︱news article

[warm patrol]

ok

i think i am safe. tried searching the Microsoft edge directory in local app data and turned on show hidden files and have found nothing

[fading mango]

i did everything you said and still nothing

[warm patrol]

not sure how to use the neko detector tho... don't see an exe file to run it

[fading mango]

Im in the app now, but it wont load my mod packs or browse them

[rich flint]

the issue for you is the app connecting to web servers to get things

some people have success reinstalling the app for some reason

!reinstall

[red patio]

Reinstalling Overwolf & CurseForge

Please uninstall by following the instructions here

Once you're done, you can install again from the main download page

*These steps will not remove any installed mods/addons/modpacks or associated files (worlds, configs etc)

[fading mango]

Should i download standalone? or overwolf

I have a windows 11 pc

[rich flint]

either is ok. try the standalone perhaps

[fading mango]

and does install folder matter?

[digital roost]

help, i'm speak portugues

[rich flint]

try to use a non-system location. C:\curseforge is good

[rich flint]

you have mod files that are for different forge (minecraft) versions

are you using the curseforge application?

[fading mango]

I think i figured something out might help alot of people

i have spectrum wifi, a 2G and 5G. I was on 5G the whole time it wasnt working, the second i changed it worked perfectly.

[rich flint]

oh my

interesting

[drifting latch]

Do u understand Spanish

I know some people who speak Portuguese do

[rich flint]

it's pretty different

was in Portugal last year on a trip 😄

[lime echo]

ok I done all scans and nothing. Is the virus done for? I wanna play all the mods 8 and am uncertain if i should redownload it

by scans I mean overwolf tool and jar scan \

[rich flint]

if you have checked your OS with the checker and scanned JAR files (profiles) with the JAR checker then you are fine. anything downloaded now also has been scanned and passed the check as well

[cloud jay]

ok so i trying to download the mini map and its not updated to the new one yet do we know when it will be

[rich flint]

mods are not developed by curseforge. curseforge is a database website and app that users can upload modded content that they have authored. it's up to users to make mods and put them on their projects.

[cloud jay]

@rich flint question what does game version 1.7 mean is that 1.17 ?

[rich flint]

no that's very old

[velvet pumice]

is it safe to download mods of curseforge that are not on the list?

[rich flint]

all minecraft mods (actually all files) currently on the curseforge database have already been scanned and any malware infected things removed.

[velvet pumice]

oh so that should all be safe?

[cloud jay]

Ok I guess I'll wait I wanting this map the map writer mini map

[rich flint]

from the malware thing yes.

[velvet pumice]

okay thank you!

[rich flint]

that's very old. it's very unlikely the person who made any of those mods will come back and make new files for new minecraft versions.

[uneven basin]

my computer things its dangerous file

[cloud jay]

But I was just playing that one on 1.19

[rich flint]

what version of minecraft are you wanting to use a minimap with.

[cloud jay]

1 20

[rich flint]

if you trusted curseforge / overwolf to run their launcher app then it makes sense you can trust the scanner tool that they published on github which is open source code

[cloud jay]

All I know is the map I used ley me mark my base so I could leave it then I pressed j to. Bring up huge map

[rich flint]

that is very new (like 2 days) and very few mods have been ported up from older versions. it will take several weeks for enough mod authors to publish enough mod files to get the typical quality of life mods avaiable

for forge Xaero's maps mod and Xaero's minimap mod are popular. and also journeymaps

[cloud jay]

So I see a map I want how do I get it

I'd like to try this map

[rich flint]

the only current way is to install a fabric 1.20 profile and then use that mod as that is the only file for 1.20 they've published so far

I scanned all Modpacks from the Curseforge Launcher witht the second tool and the mods folder in appdata and found no infected files, is there another place i should search for?
Also if i ran a complete Check with Kaspersky, should it also find infected jars if there are some?

[upper root]

kapersky wont find them

did you run both the malware detector and the jar scanner?

[limber mortar]

Yes i ran the first one and it said there is no infected file. After the first one i got the other Jar Malware Scanner and scanned my Mods in %Appdata% and the Curseforge Folder
But im not quite sure if i should also scan another location

[upper root]

as long as you dont store mods anywhere else thats all you need to scan

Okay, so it should be fine! Big thanks!

Please use the correct terms - it allows us to understand and help you faster

Forge = Minecraft Forge, this is a modloader often just called "Forge".
Fabric = Fabric MC, this is a modloader, often just called "Fabric".
CurseForge = A Website/App that has content for games and serves as a mod manager.
Mods = Individual mod files.
Modpacks = Multiple mods put into the mods folder or downloaded from CurseForge.

To play modpacks, you need CurseForge or another mod manager that can install modpacks

hey lads, with specific instances from curseforge (idk what they have in common) i get the EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) error at startup. this is only in some instances, not all.

ive tried removing all mods too and it still did it

so to me it seems like its either curseforge or forge itself thats throwing the issue

im on windows 11 which is probably a big part of the issue

[brisk temple]

im not an expert at this but i searched the virus file in windows search and it's there

i used the script that checks for the virus but it didnt find it

is this just a visual bug cus im confused

Hey, how to open minecraft server with friends in curseforge ?

[brisk temple]

my bad

i just got in this server cus im worried

[digital roost]

It's possible that another file exists with the same name, but if you're not sure about it's legitimacy, I recommend double-checking it with the tool published by Curseforge to be certain, and then using any antivirus software to analyse the file. If you're still uncertain, I'd back up the file to any portable storage location that cannot harm your device (eg. a USB drive), then remove the file off of your PC. If anything breaks as a result of the file being missing, it's likely not a fake file, and you can replace it with your backup.

Though I do recommend reading up about the issue online first, as there are some dead giveaways pertaining to the file's legitimacy, such as fake folders/folder names that the file can be present in.

[red patio]

How to repair your Minecraft installation on CurseForge - **NOT** the same as `Repair Profile` - please follow these exact steps

1. Click on the Minecraft Tab on the left side of the CurseForge App.
2. Click button next to the Create Custom Profile option.
3. Click Repair Installation option.

NOTE: Although this might seem similar to the instructions of repairing profile, it's different and required. No worries, you will not lose any modpacks or worlds.

[rich flint]

Try that and disable any 3rd party antivirus you have going (or add the app as an exception to it)
