[steady swallow]

u didnt see anything

[wind sequoia]

"i think" always gives me a vibe of doubt

[steady swallow]

yeah cause its like a maybe

anyways

what is the best weapon and armour in the game?

modpack

[wind sequoia]

emm

havent seen any better than netherite that is craftable

but there is one from aether

[steady swallow]

from what i know rn is tungsten or whatever

[steady swallow]

valkrie

i have it, same stats as netherite i think

[wind sequoia]

yea

thats why i said havent seen any better craftable

but there is armor

[steady swallow]

how many posses are there in the aether?

ive fought 3

[wind sequoia]

that has chestplate with 9 armor 3 toughness 2 kocnback res

[wind sequoia]

u have it in questbook

[steady swallow]

oh ok

[wind sequoia]

all the quests about a dimension should tell u what to do step by step ngl

[steady swallow]

ive fought some flying whales in the towers, valikrie queen and some mad pumking sliding thing

[steady swallow]

ok

[wind sequoia]

bro i play that modpack for 2 days dont spoil 💀

[steady swallow]

bruh sorry

[wind sequoia]

nah just screwing with ya

[steady swallow]

its not a spoil cause u get to see em anyways

and fight em

[wind sequoia]

bro its like i'd say "afton is that guy who gave jobs at the beggining" to u before u watched a fnaf movie because u'd see that anyways

XD

[steady swallow]

bro... i was just about to watch the movie

[wind sequoia]

XDD

[steady swallow]

😠

jk

ive already seen it

[wind sequoia]

u seen the spoilers on tiktok or yt for sure

whole internet busted abt it

[steady swallow]

nah

[wind sequoia]

like 2hrs after the movie came out

[steady swallow]

i just watched it on the 28th i think

i didnt see anything online

[wind sequoia]

i took my gf for it on the premiere

[steady swallow]

or 26th when it was released

[steady swallow]

no way bro, u have a gf

[wind sequoia]

sure do

[steady swallow]

wow

[wind sequoia]

and here is the big one

[steady swallow]

thats imposible for 99.9% of people who use discord

[wind sequoia]

she plays video games with me

[steady swallow]

Brooo

[wind sequoia]

and uses discord

XD

[steady swallow]

gg

[wind sequoia]

i have won life

ngl

[steady swallow]

I only use discord for this server and to talk with my friends while playing mc

can i send ss here

ill show u the servers im in

[wind sequoia]

i have like 30 servers which i use none

XD

literally i use this one to ask abt modpack cuz its cool

[steady swallow]

also im appearing offline cause i was watching a movie and didnt want my friends to text me and ask me to play

[wind sequoia]

i go offline when i see some of lil bi*hes ping online players on one of servers

[steady swallow]

tbh if i tried i think i would be able to get a gf since im not a discord mod and i actualy go outside

but still no luck

[wind sequoia]

XD

im still in school so..

BRO

THE PUNCHLINE

[steady swallow]

also there was one girl who i spoke too but nah she basically rejected me indirectly

[wind sequoia]

I HAVE A GF

AND PLAY LEAGUE

[steady swallow]

thats impossible

[steady swallow]

same bro

plus i have exams this year and tbh i dont realy like most of the girls from my school

[icy estuary]

[steady swallow]

You might doubt me but if i try i could

XD

[wind sequoia]

talking abt "discord mods"

XDD

[steady swallow]

😂

[steady swallow]

another reason why i dont pull is cause i dont even have snapchat

and i really dislike that app

[icy estuary]

okay I dont want to do this but it might be better to move to either direct messages or #off-topic

[steady swallow]

when

[icy estuary]

[steady swallow]

did i ask

jk lil bro

ima go play mc now

[icy estuary]

have fun

[steady swallow]

join my server

[wind sequoia]

discord mod got mad cuz "gf" was mentioned

jkjk

XD

[steady swallow]

or actualy nah i dont think my friends what other people in

[wind sequoia]

lets end it for now

[steady swallow]

ok nice talking to u

[wind sequoia]

u2

[icy estuary]

[stiff stirrup]

it goes 2 ways actually :3

[wind sequoia]

sorry

[stiff stirrup]

[wind sequoia]

-_-

[icy estuary]

you can ban people now iirc

[wind sequoia]

they have an army

[stiff stirrup]

.ban

[plucky geode]

You can't use this command!

You need certain Wick Permissions to use this command!
You need one of these permissions:

[icy estuary]

oh well

.ban @wind sequoia

[plucky geode]

Action cancelled!

[steady swallow]

😂

it says this interaction failed

i voted no

[wind sequoia]

same 😆

[steady swallow]

dont fix it

its fine like that

[agile cradle]

I mean we can bump you to quarantine.

[steady swallow]

BRO THEY HAVE QUARANTINE 😂 😂

OH HELL NAH

[icy estuary]

its just full of scam bots

[steady swallow]

thats the most discord mod thing ever

[wind sequoia]

covid vibes

[icy estuary]

its a pretty nice place

[stiff stirrup]

just move over to #off-topic

[agile cradle]

scams and porn promo

[steady swallow]

its fine cause we stoped talking

[wind sequoia]

u havent noticed we ended the conv like 10min ago 💀

[stiff stirrup]

still going on as far as i see.

[icy estuary]

actually 6

[steady swallow]

bro

🤓

[steady swallow]

🤓

ok bye

[agile cradle]

I'm in post food sesh and trying to figure out what the rest of the day ends up being, BMC, Prom server, or art

[stiff stirrup]

diff slot

not in there

[agile sun]

Y’all know what to do if my nether portal is linking to a nether portal that doesn’t exist anymore ?

[autumn python]

where?

[stiff stirrup]

try the 4 corners of ur player character thing

[autumn python]

Oooh I found it

[fleet oxide]

Break both and build the new one a few hundred blocks away that worked for me

Anyone can help? Like even how to find it using commands i.e. /locate or /structureessentials cuz I can’t find the structure code for it. Just to test if the structure naturally spawns

[supple geyser]

Our modpacks don't support essential, please use e4mc instead or host a local server using the serverpack.

[agile sun]

So i can’t just relink them?

[fleet oxide]

Everytime you use the functioning portal it rebuilds the one you broke on the other side. So, the workaround is to build it a lil further away.

[indigo dew]

is the aether broken?

i just tried to go there and then it like kicked me off my server

this is all it says now when i join

[fleet oxide]

Yes. I was asked to update the aether redux mod and it worked for me

[indigo dew]

itll let me connect back to the server when I do?

[stiff stirrup]

update on server and client

[fleet oxide]

Yup, we updated the server and my copy of aether redux and it worked. There may be some incompat on it

[stiff stirrup]

and itll work

[fleet oxide]

Shameless bump 😢

[indigo dew]

ahh oki

top one?

[stiff stirrup]

yea

[indigo dew]

i wish i could help but unfortunately i like traveling everywwhere on foot

now i just wait until my homie gets home

[stiff stirrup]

yep

[indigo dew]

uhhh why did my server pic change?

and the player limit also changed

[stiff stirrup]

did ur friend swap the server?

[indigo dew]

no

he's at work and doesnt have console access rn, i also didnt get the console stuff from him yet so i cant even check it out

now im scared the worlds gonna be ruined

[stiff stirrup]

silly glitch than

[stiff stirrup]

itll be fine

[indigo dew]

oki i hope so

not that i care about the player limit, but we playing BMC not whatever ATM9 is

alright thank you

[agile cradle]

all the mods 9, dif modpack

[indigo dew]

i just never heard of it

ty tides

[agile cradle]

it's literally a kitchen sink modpack, got basically anything and everything xD

[stiff stirrup]

lmao

[indigo dew]

maybe it just did that cause i updated the aether thing

im thinking thats what it is

cause when i join its only the aether thing so as tamz said has to be a glitch

[stiff stirrup]

could just be a visual bug

[indigo dew]

^

[agile cradle]

restarting your game may fix it.

[digital furnace]

3 players on my server have entered the aether, crashed the server and now they cannot connect

any ideas on what to do? or do i need to roll it by like 5 hours to our last save

[stiff stirrup]

update aether redux to 1.3.3 on client and server

[digital furnace]

thanks mate ill try it

[stuck orbit]

@stiff stirrup

1. No
2. Curse Forge
3. 1.20.1
4. V 20
5. When launching the game. It loads and then menu doesn’t even pop up before it crashes.
6. No
7. Attached
8. yes

@stiff stirrup

[stiff stirrup]

!drivers

[still sentinel]

You (likely) need to update your graphics drivers in order to resolve the crash. Here's how to go about doing that!

1. Identify your graphics card
if you already know skip to the next step

• Open task manager
• Navigate to the "Performance" tab (on Windows 11 this is the button that looks like a heart pulse)
• Press the GPU 0 graph and read your GPU from the top right

Note:
In some cases you may see a GPU 0 and GPU 1. This means your CPU has its own GPU, as well as an external one. You probably want GPU 1 (which is usually the external), but you can ask staff to clarify if necessary.

2. Download your drivers from the manufacturers site
Depending on what you read before, you likely need drivers from either AMD, Intel, or NVIDIA

AMD: https://www.amd.com/en/support
Intel: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download-center/home.html
NVIDIA: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

Note:

• For NVIDIA you want to select "Game Ready Driver (GRD)" (this is the default option) for the best performance. Once installing you'd probably prefer downloading GeForce Experience, which will notify you when there's an available drivers update.
• For Intel, you probably want to press "Get Started" under the "Automatically update your drivers and software", which will simplify the process and update everything automatically
• For AMD you probably want to just press "Download Windows Drivers", which will download something called AMD Adrenaline, which will update your drivers automatically.

3. Run the installation, restart your computer, and try playing MC again

• At this point, hopefully your Minecraft is running. If it still does not work, please post any new logs and staff will help assist you with finding the right solution.

[digital furnace]

@stiff stirrup thanks man that worked

[stiff stirrup]

nice

[onyx yoke]

What fuel does this beuti use?

[digital furnace]

@stiff stirrupany idea how you get veinmining to work? ive got the enchant and ive keybound it

[stiff stirrup]

just hold the key and mine a block / ore

[onyx yoke]

Nvm find it out

[blissful kraken]

Is there a good way to find Gravitite

[autumn python]

Alex Caves crashes the modpack

[stiff stirrup]

did you add alexs caves urself to the modpack?

[icy estuary]

then dont add it into the modpack

[autumn python]

Yep

[stiff stirrup]

remove it

it breaks the modpack

[vapid spruce]

Tamz - Thanks for posting the drivers thing... I have been playing Skyfactory for a while with no issues, but suddenly started crashing when I swapped to Better MC.

I updated my drivers with no luck, but thanks to the tutorial above I learned by laptop actually has 2 cards and I have not been updating my integrated AMD card... which apparently minecraft defaults to.

Ive been stuck on this for days and after updating the AMD card (GPU 0) that I didn't know about... I can finally launch it.

[autumn python]

Any particular reason?

[stiff stirrup]

not in pack not my problem to solve

[stiff stirrup]

oooo congrats! glad you can play the modpack now

• drivers updates gives you larger performance boosts :3

reason why drivers updates are needed on our packs is we use shaders and stuff

[icy estuary]

If you want Alex's caves, #medieval-mc-forge 4 has it

[vapid spruce]

I keep my Nvida drivers up to date... The problem was my secret AMD integrated card I would have never known to update.

[stiff stirrup]

laptop?

[vapid spruce]

Yep

[icy estuary]

[stiff stirrup]

rq send a screenshot of ur f3 menu when ur inside the game

if ur on game atm

[vapid spruce]

I will be in a sec. loading it up for the first time now.

[stiff stirrup]

[vapid spruce]

I am always happy to have someone tell me how to do things better. 😉

[stiff stirrup]

me too

[digital furnace]

😂 thank you, was trying for ages

[stiff stirrup]

you said you had a Nvidia gpu yeah?

seems like ur game is just using ur amd integrated graphics

• reason why ur fps is kinda ass

[vapid spruce]

Yea, I noticed

[stiff stirrup]

you probs have a RTX card yeah?

[vapid spruce]

yep

[stiff stirrup]

here follow this

[vapid spruce]

Proof I am on the AMD card

[stiff stirrup]

yep ur game is defaulted to AMD and not NVIDIA

that guide will fix that

[vapid spruce]

It did not swap immediatly, gunna do a restart to see if that helps

(it was on Auto-Select btw)

[agile sun]

What’s a good farm that works on Better mc?

[stiff stirrup]

yeah manually selecting it will fix

auto sucks ass

[twilit mason]

Trying to open the mod but I get error code 1

[icy estuary]

!moreinfo

[still sentinel]

Hello! For us to help you with your issue, you will need to answer all 8 questions below. Post the answers in this channel:

1. Have you modified the modpack in any way? If so, what did you do? (Updating/adding/removing mods, changing configs)
2. What launcher, or program, are you using to launch the game? (CurseForge, ATLauncher, etc)
3. What Minecraft version are you playing? (1.18.2, 1.16.5, 1.19.2)
4. What version of the modpack are you playing? (v11, v9, etc)
5. What steps are necessary to reproduce the crash? (Launching the game, exploring the world, etc)
6. Have you ever gotten past the point where the crash happens?
7. Send the crash report file into this channel. Right click the modpack, Open Folder, and navigate to the Crash Reports folder. Drag the newest one here. If there is no crash reports folder, do the same thing with the latest.log file in the logs folder.
8. Did you follow the Performance guide linked in #faq?

[icy estuary]

its a modpack, not a mod

!define

[still sentinel]

Curseforge - Refers to both the Curseforge website and Curseforge Launcher. The Curseforge Launcher is a modded launcher used to play & install modpacks. ATLauncher is a better alternative. All modded launchers can be used to install & play both Fabric and Forge modpacks.
Modpack - A collection of mods. "Better MC 1.19.2 Forge", for example, is a modpack.
Modpack Version - The version of the modpack you are playing. v5, v6, v7, etc.
Minecraft Version - The version of Minecraft which the modpack you are playing runs on. 1.16.5, 1.18.2, 1.19.2, etc.
Mod - A .jar file which modifies the game in some way. "BetterEnd", for example, is a mod.
Forge - A mod loader which allows you to use Forge mods.
Fabric - A mod loader which allows you to use Fabric mods.

[twilit mason]

yeah modpack

[vapid spruce]

@stiff stirrup - My framerate may or may not have increased slightly...

Full File

[vapid spruce]

how do I validate if the shaders in the pack are active?

[stiff stirrup]

you will know lul

go to video settings top right

[stiff stirrup]

follow the guide for updating ur drivers plz :3

[twilit mason]

alright, ill try it out

[vapid spruce]

Yep... they were disabled. Good find.

[stiff stirrup]

indeed

they change a ton

i suggest the complimentary reimgagined if they are there

but since ur an RTX card try Voxels ;3

[vapid spruce]

It came with Complimentary reimagined... but I'll hunt down voxels and see how it looks

[stiff stirrup]

here i got a link

https://modrinth.com/shader/rethinking-voxels

[vapid spruce]

They have a huge performance hit though... Went from 130 fps down to 38

[stiff stirrup]

what laptop you have?

[vapid spruce]

Lenovo Legion 5 pro

[stiff stirrup]

ah

lenovo

one sec

@vapid spruce follow souls guide

lenovo has some thermal limits

[vapid spruce]

kk

I am already in performance mode, and I don't see any settings for overdrive in levovo vantage.

Swapping to Fast graphics vs fancy gets me from 38 to 41... so better... but not much.

[stiff stirrup]

bios

[vapid spruce]

The voxels pack is even worse... down to 13 FPS.
I'll look into the bios settings... but I am not expecting to overclock it that hard.

[stiff stirrup]

ye

light overclock

[vapid spruce]

changed to the default settings for over clocking in the bios, I'll see how that goes. Not sure if the settings effect the AMD or the Nvidia gpu.

Still have not found any settings for overdrive.

Overclocking went from 13 to 16.
I dropped the resolution from 4k to 1080 and it went up to 38...

Swapping from voxels back to Complimentary jumped from 38 up to 120

so... voxels is struggling hard

[stiff stirrup]

voxels is good but a very very heavy shaderpack

its fine if it doesnt run good sadly

[vapid spruce]

Maybe it will run better on my desktop. It looks real nice in the vids I ma seeing... but I don't think my laptop is going to handle it nicely.

[stiff stirrup]

maybe

what specs are ur desktop?

[vapid spruce]

old AF. 😉

[stiff stirrup]

LOL

[vapid spruce]

I don't know them off the top of my head, the CPU is from about a year ago. But the GPU I have been rocking since well before covid. It is a 970-980.

Lol... it is a 9yr old GPU.

[agile cradle]

try speccy out, it'll give all the specs in one spot

https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy/download

[vapid spruce]

I could find the specs... the issue is getting up off the couch to walk over to the desktop when I am chillin with the wife on my laptop. 😉

[agile cradle]

ah ok xD

[vapid spruce]

But fine... ill blame you on my incoming divorce and go check.

xD

[agile cradle]

nah you don't have to do it now, just wanted to offer a tool for those who struggle with the millions of steps to check that junk out

[stuck orbit]

Is there a reason structures aren’t showing up for the newest version of better mc? Didn’t there used to be graveyards and stuff?

Like I can’t find any biome villages anymore like I used to be able to 1-2 years ago. 😕

[vapid spruce]

I just started playing Better MC minutes ago, and there are tons of structures spawning that I have never seen before. Granted... I have never played 1.20... or really anything after the golden age of 1.12... so they could be vanilla.

[stuck orbit]

Like grand structures?

[vapid spruce]

But... given they were giant coluseeums and pagodas... yea

[stuck orbit]

Hm. Yeah. For some reason my seeds with my friend arent generating buildings

[vapid spruce]

Windows 11
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
GTX 970
32GB Ram

[stiff stirrup]

cpu is nice

gpu not so much haha

i ahve a 980 myself :3

[vapid spruce]

Yea, like I said... I updated the CPU a year ago or so, but the GPU I have not touched in a while because I was stationed oversees for a few years, then Covid hit and GPU prices went up... then I stopped gaming (things that needed heavy gpu usage)... and I just never really thought about replacing it.

[stiff stirrup]

hey

the 970 is a pretty good gpu

its solid

works fine and can run most modern titles still on low settings

[vapid spruce]

Yea, been chugging along doing it's thing for a decade.
It handles BG3 like a champ on mid-low settings

[stiff stirrup]

[vapid spruce]

But... Ark Ascended turns my computer into a lava puddle on min settings, so I don't think it has many more years of use in it.

[stiff stirrup]

yeah pile of shit wont run even on most high end pcs

[vapid spruce]

I was rocking 2-3 fps with every performance tweak I could find

Lol yea, desktop is at 700fps without the shaders installed

[stiff stirrup]

well

that cpu is insane

so fair enough

[agile cradle]

better than my tower rocking a vega 8 at least xD

[stiff stirrup]

LOL

[vapid spruce]

5435345637872545927 - Huge structure just a few chunks SE of spawn

[agile cradle]

EXACT same pc sold at walmart with same specs is 500 bucks, got this for 100

[vapid spruce]

waaaait... wrong map

[stiff stirrup]

lmfao

i tbh kinda wanna upgrade this damn box, well

[agile cradle]

got it in case I wanted to slowly upgrade down the line 😛 dad wanted a computer to play games on, but he's lil too old school for that so he gave it to me

[stiff stirrup]

cpu motherboard, ram and cooler wise

maybe case too

[vapid spruce]

@stuck orbit - Try -1509783543632108394

[stuck orbit]

Thank you :))

[agile cradle]

this exact pc xD https://www.walmart.com/ip/HP-Desktop-Tower-R3-8GB-1TB-Desktop-Bundle/369272619

[vapid spruce]

I am currently just checking out seeds... and I ran into one with a mega structure at spawn, so I thought you might be able to use it for a sanity check. Hope it helps

[vapid spruce]

Shader drops it down to 54. so... gpu is the bottleneck for sure.

[stiff stirrup]

yep

shaders are gpu heavy

[vapid spruce]

Voxels drops it even further to a blistering 20

So, my laptops 3050Ti - Mobile is vastly more powerful than my desktops 970.

[agile cradle]

yeah that's how my set up is currently in terms of laptops stronger than desktop. the tower I listed up there in the link is what I have for desktop (collecting dust), vs my HP Envy laptop is:

also has a beats speake built into it

this laptop runs modpacks pretty dang well for its age and guts

[vapid spruce]

Yea, at the time I was doing lots of business trips and gaming on the go was important to me.
Now I work from home... so I leave the house once every other month... and that is for 20 minutes to pick up the mail.
So my laptop has turned into the couch cuddle gaming device.

[agile cradle]

I turned my laptop into a desktop layout, cords, everywhere, as it's my priority computer for a long time and until I can get a good desktop it's likely gonna stay that way, if I can buy my friend's old pc off him I'll take my old desktop and use the guts to upgrade my mom's computer for extra ram, as we have the exact same towers, but it only has 1 ram card so it's not taking full advantage of pci slots

[haughty yarrow]

What is the best biome to find endermen in?

[agile cradle]

in the overworld or end?

[haughty yarrow]

As I have not been able to find any

[haughty yarrow]

overworld

[agile cradle]

they feel a bit random in overworld far as I know

have you scoped out in caves/caverns?

[haughty yarrow]

Mmmmm I see, Reason I am asking is because I have found next to non in 42hrs of gameplay

[haughty yarrow]

I have not

[agile cradle]

I tend to have better luck there, tall ceiling areas of course

[haughty yarrow]

Could gamemode be the issue?

[agile cradle]

what mode you using?

[haughty yarrow]

Normal

[agile cradle]

maybe, I like to do hard as you get better loot that way

[haughty yarrow]

Alright

Thanks

I will try it out

[agile cradle]

no problem.

[vapid spruce]

Do you really?

[agile cradle]

yeah, it's like that with vanilla, so I assume it carries over to modded

[vapid spruce]

Since when?

[agile cradle]

since we had both normal and hard

[vapid spruce]

Huh... 12 years of playing MC... and I don't think I knew that.

[stiff stirrup]

mmm not rlly

it gets harder with time

there is a Difficulty scale in the f3 menu

it rises each day

[vapid spruce]

I don't see anything on google that supports hard mode having better drops

[agile cradle]

doesn't it affect the loot tables though even slightly considering with armored mobs?

I heard this way back when I started playing

[stiff stirrup]

it affects item drops from mobs and changes to enemies

like zombies having a 100% chance on hard to turn a zombie into a zombie villagers

[agile cradle]

jeeze I remember all the og minecrafters would say it's just easier in hardmode because of the benefits of loot and such

[vapid spruce]

I see higher spawn rates... and thus more effective farms.
And there is 1 single website I found that states you can get more drops from pillagers.

[agile cradle]

yeah it'd make farms way better number wise

[vapid spruce]

but there are so many conflicting details about drops / exp rates on hard mode.

[haughty yarrow]

Do piglins still trade pearls?

As I have just spent 2 stacks of gold and got none

[atomic narwhal]

they do but it's well known that they are super rare to get from piglins

better to even make clerics for enderpearls or just go to a warped forest biome for endermen

[haughty yarrow]

Spent 45 mins in 1 this morning and legit NOTHING spawned while I was there

[haughty yarrow]

Whats the drop chance?

[atomic narwhal]

I don't remember, it's low enough that I don't try though lol

[vapid spruce]

~2% according to the wiki

[haughty yarrow]

No shot 💀

[vapid spruce]

so 2 stacks of ingots is bad luck... but not horrible luck.

1 pearl trade per stack would be about average.

[haughty yarrow]

Well guess my boys and I ain’t going to the end lol

[atomic narwhal]

enderpearl trade is pretty easy to get from clerics, it's an expert level trade, 66% chance to get

[indigo dew]

What I used to is build a 40x40 platform with sand for endermen since they typically spawn in groups of 1-4

[indigo dew]

I just hunt enderman with looting 3

Besides if you craft a endolocator you won’t have to waste eyes of ender

[sudden pine]

I use the enderman spawner in the jungle level of those multi-tiered dungeons

[vapid spruce]

As someone who has not played anything past 1.12...
1.20 Better MC is like a whole different game The caves and cliffs stuff is crazy.

[indigo dew]

It’s exciting isn’t it?

Be careful when you’re in the deep cave tho cave centipedes are scary haha

[vapid spruce]

yea...
But even the overword is full of all kinds of new stuff.
I dunno what is vanilla or a mod at this point... but I keep dying because I just want to see what something is.

Like... this is so cool.

and it echos underground now?
I feel like a noob again.

[atomic narwhal]

echos are mod, big cave is not mod

big caves are part of the caves and cliffs update

[vapid spruce]

99% of my play was vanilla until ~1.7, FTB on 1.8, and a Skyblock or 2 on 1.12... I have not played any world generation past 1.8... so basically everything is new to me.

actually... I don't think I have even fought a mob with the new combat update...

[indigo dew]

When you hit you’ll see a cooldown where cursor is

I think the point of it was to stop auto clicking by dealing less damage when the attack speed thing didn’t recharge

[zealous lark]

Hey guys, sorry for storming in, but my game has crashed after i went into the TF portal, I tried changing my player .dat file to try to spawn myself in the overworld but every time i try to load back in, it doesn't save and I am trying to load the game in the TF again, any recommendations on what to do? :(

[vapid spruce]

I see that... and yea, I know it is years late... but I guess I need to learn to not spam click.

Hello Everyone, I am having a problem with a serve and I was hoping if someone might have a solution or would be willing to help. We are using the BetterMC modpack and so far its been amazing, but we've run into an issue. Whenever to try to go to the End dimension using an end portal, the server will crash. After repeated attempts at trying to figure out the problem, we are just left confused. If anyone can help, it would be appreciated.

Hello! For us to help you with your issue, you will need to answer all 8 questions below. Post the answers in this channel:

1. Have you modified the modpack in any way? If so, what did you do? (Updating/adding/removing mods, changing configs)
2. What launcher, or program, are you using to launch the game? (CurseForge, ATLauncher, etc)
3. What Minecraft version are you playing? (1.18.2, 1.16.5, 1.19.2)
4. What version of the modpack are you playing? (v11, v9, etc)
5. What steps are necessary to reproduce the crash? (Launching the game, exploring the world, etc)
6. Have you ever gotten past the point where the crash happens?
7. Send the crash report file into this channel. Right click the modpack, Open Folder, and navigate to the Crash Reports folder. Drag the newest one here. If there is no crash reports folder, do the same thing with the latest.log file in the logs folder.
8. Did you follow the Performance guide linked in #faq?

Luna Pixel's World Sharing

Our modpacks don't support any mods that add singleplayer hosting / world sharing because we already provide free world sharing. The "Essential" mod is therefore incompatible.

To share your world using our own world hosting, click the "Open to Lan" or "Share World" button in the game menu when in a singleplayer world, and share the world.

It will give you an address, like magma-cube.mc.lunapixel.gg, which your friends can use to connect directly to your world as if it were a server!

We still highly suggest not to play through LAN as LAN is untested and unreliable. Using it will cause longterm damage to your world.

There is no reason to use LAN, as we support both paid and free methods of hosting a server the normal way.

[stiff stirrup]

^ free first

!server

[still sentinel]

We suggest renting a server from Bisect Hosting:
Approx. $10 - $25 a month depending on what plan you choose. You can also get 25% off with Code LunaPixel.

Go to https://www.bisecthosting.com/LunaPixel and order a plan which fits you. We suggest 1GB per player but nothing lower than 4GB as the server needs at least 3GB to run.

Go to #server-hosting for more Info!

Free Method: (This is hosting on your own PC, which is harder to do so we suggest getting a server via Bisect Hosting)

1. Download the serverpack from Curseforge's website
2. Right click the start.ps1 file and click Run with Powershell
   To join your own server, type localhost into Direct Connect.
   This video explains the process https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuGUbVbLsDc
   The server IP address is your Public IP Address, which can be found by googling my ip address

If other players are unable to join, find a portforwarding guide online.

[wicked sphinx]

Saw a mob with a spikey helmet and knight likeness. It spawned at night and in the rain then vanished by lightning. It is blue and black and had a long sword. 1.18.2

[zealous lark]

Okay so it looks like I was able to get myself out of the TF but I am still crashing :(

[wicked sphinx]

Any Idea of what it was?

[stiff stirrup]

server doesnt have enough ram + performance to run the modpack

cant load the end right

just download ur world and make a port foward server or use world sharing

both free

[zealous lark]

Roger, I’ll try allocating more ram

[stiff stirrup]

OH WOOPS

wrong person

[stiff stirrup]

ignore MEEEEEEEEEE

[trail thunder]

Lmao

[stiff stirrup]

not what i ment to say to youuu

i was thinking it was the other user on aternos LMFAO

[vapid spruce]

How do I actually toggle vein mining?

[stiff stirrup]

have the enchant on pickaxe

hold the button

mine

[trail thunder]

Is there some enchantment

[zealous lark]

Lmfao all good

[vapid spruce]

but... I am using a non-enchanted wooden axe and it is sometimes mass murdering trees, and other times just doing one block.

[trail thunder]

Is there ftb ultimine in it?

[stiff stirrup]

does it take bit by bit to cut tree down?

[stiff stirrup]

no not that i know

[trail thunder]

Yeah it's confusing

[vapid spruce]

I am not sure what you are asking.

[stiff stirrup]

dont coruch

crouch

cut tree

does it cut like irl tre

[trail thunder]

I dont think the tree chopping mod is in here

[trail thunder]

Lmao

[vapid spruce]

no... but the first tree I did it to was a jungle tree, let me try it on a normal 1x1

[trail thunder]

A jungle tree immediately breaking with wooden axe ic

Not ultimine then

Coz the axe would have gone bye bye

[wicked sphinx]

Chopping trees with 100+ blocks can't be chopped down without getting it under 100

[vapid spruce]

the axe does go bye bye... and the tree does not finish being cut down.

[trail thunder]

Wekk

Well

Try hitting the key above tab

~ this one

While breaking

[vapid spruce]

no change

ohhh I see...

so all trees just go poof when you chop them

[trail thunder]

I see

[vapid spruce]

Maybe the jungle tree is doing something odd...
When I break 1 block my axe breaks and the tree gets partially chopped down, when I come back with a new axe the tree chops one block at a time... probably because it is no longer recognized as a tree.

on non-jungle trees it seems to destroy everything above it like a tcon lumber axe would.

[wicked sphinx]

Have you done a small sized jungle tree

[vapid spruce]

yea, it works like I would expect on the smaller jungle trees

I think the issue is that the first tree in this pack that I hit with an axe was one of the 2x2 jungle trees

[wicked sphinx]

Your larger tree is over 100 blocks. The mod doesn't work unless you have under 100 blocks

[vapid spruce]

oof... I just learned it happens if you mine from the top down...

that was a big fall as a 2x2 jungle tree vanished from under me.

And this world gen is doing funky things to water

[trail thunder]

Dont look at it

Its not there

Its not

[steep epoch]

why cant i make a shield in this mod

the crafting recipe is right but it wont work

Just lesve it

Maybe it was john

[vapid spruce]

Goblin Traders mod is cool... early game free ore doubling

[trail thunder]

Lemme check in the modlist

Love it love it

[vapid spruce]

Is there a quick start guide for better MC?

[agile cradle]

the quests in your inventory in the top left is a great place to start

[vapid spruce]

check that out... I was expecting a quest book in my inventory

maybe that is a dated method.

[agile cradle]

some of hte modpacks have a physical book, others just the inv menu

[vapid spruce]

Ahh... and I found where the advancements are hidden.

[steep epoch]

cant make an iron golem dont know why

[stiff stirrup]

What’s a farm design that works on this mod?

[agile cradle]

well depends on the type of farm, there's millions of them 🙂

most vanilla ones should work

[shrewd yacht]

Hey everyone, let me know how to get more information about the project in BMC2

[agile cradle]

more info in terms of what?

[shrewd yacht]

ah Structures

[agile cradle]

check your quests 🙂

[trail thunder]

Or the advancements

Almost all the WDA dungeons have an advancement with it

[agile cradle]

quests will be the top left of your screen when you open inventory menu

[shrewd yacht]

sorry i mean creatures

[agile cradle]

same thing. advancements and quests will be your best friend

some mods may have a book you can get that will talk about the creatures.

[shrewd yacht]

Is there any website that can give me more information about the structure :V

or something about structures

[agile cradle]

did you check quests and advancements?

what structures? there's a lot of them. if it's something specific you could try googling

[shrewd yacht]

Yeh but Searching Google is very difficult without a specific website🥲

[agile cradle]

be specific, we can't help with very vague terms. go into the game and check the quests and advancements?

[shrewd yacht]

sorry because skill English issue

[agile cradle]

what structures? check the book in your inventory screen in the top left

Just saying structures won't help as most mods have structures and tons of them. Your best option would be to check in your game in the quests section and the advancement section as it will have more information

[hoary bramble]

is macbook compatible with bettermc 1.20.1

[trail thunder]

Well luna packs are compatible with macbooks its just the performance

What are the specs of your macbook

[hoary bramble]

it's a macbook pro

hang on

[trail thunder]

The ram is what matters the most

[hoary bramble]

8gb

[trail thunder]

Well

Now thats a bit of problem

You'll still be able to play

But at reduced frames

[hoary bramble]

well it's configurable up to 16gb

[trail thunder]

I'd suggest allocate 5gb of ram, close all the unnecessary applications

[hoary bramble]

so

yeah but it still crashes, it's not reduced frames or anything its exit code 8

[trail thunder]

And set shadows to minimum or off and render dist to 8 chunks

[trail thunder]

[still sentinel]

To better assist with fixing an issue, we will need some logs: Curseforge/GDLauncher-> Right click the modpack instance -> Open Folder. For MultiMC -> Click 'Instance Folder' on the right.

47.2.5 is for 1.20.1 latest.

[trail thunder]

Yeah

[hoary bramble]

idek how to do this but

macbook so complicated for no reason

[trail thunder]

Yep

You can look it up on google

!drivers

[still sentinel]

You (likely) need to update your graphics drivers in order to resolve the crash. Here's how to go about doing that!

1. Identify your graphics card
if you already know skip to the next step

• Open task manager
• Navigate to the "Performance" tab (on Windows 11 this is the button that looks like a heart pulse)
• Press the GPU 0 graph and read your GPU from the top right

Note:
In some cases you may see a GPU 0 and GPU 1. This means your CPU has its own GPU, as well as an external one. You probably want GPU 1 (which is usually the external), but you can ask staff to clarify if necessary.

2. Download your drivers from the manufacturers site
Depending on what you read before, you likely need drivers from either AMD, Intel, or NVIDIA

AMD: https://www.amd.com/en/support
Intel: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download-center/home.html
NVIDIA: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

Note:

• For NVIDIA you want to select "Game Ready Driver (GRD)" (this is the default option) for the best performance. Once installing you'd probably prefer downloading GeForce Experience, which will notify you when there's an available drivers update.
• For Intel, you probably want to press "Get Started" under the "Automatically update your drivers and software", which will simplify the process and update everything automatically
• For AMD you probably want to just press "Download Windows Drivers", which will download something called AMD Adrenaline, which will update your drivers automatically.

3. Run the installation, restart your computer, and try playing MC again

• At this point, hopefully your Minecraft is running. If it still does not work, please post any new logs and staff will help assist you with finding the right solution.

anyone running a server forge 1.20.1 and having issues with chunk loader? a person have already suggested to install FTB chunk loader any other suggestions please?

[trail thunder]

Uninstall all java on your pc

And then reinstall 18

[agile cradle]

And restart the computer before running the game.

[trail thunder]

Yep

Maybe smack it for once too lol

not ^

[trail thunder]

They are working on all 1.19 and 1.20 packs

The difference in frequency of updates is that there's not really smth new that often in 1.19 mods and there arent any issues too they're pretty stable

i mean the content of the newer versions are more then the other ones

why would you play bmc 1.19 when you can play 1.20?

If this command was run in response to your question/issue, it is likely because switching away from the launcher you are currently using would fix your problem.
From our experience, the most stable launcher by far is ATLauncher, also known as ATL.

To install ATLauncher, do the following:
1. Go to https://atlauncher.com/download
2. Install and run the setup, then open the program.
3. Login to your Microsoft account that owns the Java Edition of Minecraft from the Accounts tab on the right. This process is 100% safe, as it goes directly through Microsoft. ATLauncher does not see your account credentials.
4. Go to the Packs tab on the right, then click "Curseforge" on the left.
5. Search the modpack you wish to download.
6. Click "New Instance". Click "Ok" on the opted out mods warning, then click "Open All" on the manual download screen.
7. Let the mods download, ATLauncher will grab them from your Downloads folder and automatically add them to the modpack.
8. Go to the Instances tab, and click "Play" on the modpack you downloaded. If you ever see an "Update" button on the instance, click it.

To transfer your Curseforge world to ATLauncher, simply right click the modpack on Curseforge, or click the 3 dots, then click "Open Folder". Copy the Saves folder, then click "Open Folder" on ATLauncher and paste the Saves folder there.
Because ATLauncher downloads the exact same files as Curseforge does, your world will be the exact same and you will be able to join the same servers. ATLauncher also works without an internet connection (after you've installed the modpack, of course), and does not have any bloat from Overwolf. You are free to uninstall both Overwolf and Curseforge with ATLauncher installed.

Hey, big shoutout to the team. My sons and I were just doing Aether (BMC4/v20/1.20.1) and encounted the crash requiring me to edit us back to overworld. We were a little bummed, but queue this update!

[hoary bramble]

following up with the macbook mishap earlier, this is a common issue with macbooks, i’ve seen multiple people have the same issues with the same crash log using the same modpack(s) (lunapixel packs). the macbook has no problem running other modpacks or anything like that, i feel that there is a mod within bettermc that is causing the macbook to crash and looking at the responses to other people’s crash with the same issue, it seems as if you guys dont have a solution. all im saying is that i think that this is an issue you should look into and atleast try and give a step by step of what’s wrong and how to fix it, since things on macbook can be generally confusing.

[pearl forge]

just so i can find out if thats truly the case

[stark marsh]

1. I put all the mods in the mod folder on my server.
2. CurseForge
3. 1.20.1
4. V20
5. Just logging in
6. No

[pearl forge]

Yeah, thats a bug that should be fixed in the v21 version if i didnt read it wrong

[stark marsh]

So how do i update that without destroying my world?

[pearl forge]

!updateserver

[still sentinel]

https://youtu.be/9dLMOiPp_Vk

[stark marsh]

Im so sorry, but i dont understand how i get the config and default config? I assume the mods are just the mods from bmc4?

[pearl forge]

you have to download the server zip from curseforge

what is shown on the right is just the zip

whatever folders you have inside the zip, is what you have to delete on the left

(which should be your current server folder)

[stark marsh]

I did it, but now it says this?

[pearl forge]

Did you update your client? 🤔

[stark marsh]

Yes

[pearl forge]

because you are supposed to have 2.6.26

Which launcher did you use to update your client?

[trail thunder]

Tloncha

[stark marsh]

I have v21 i use curseforge

[pearl forge]

Thats weird, i mean i downloaded it myself today
and i have the correct version inside:

But if thats the only thing missing, maybe just download it manually?

[stark marsh]

oh mb

[pearl forge]

Oh?

[stark marsh]

My friend couldnt connect thats why

Sorry it worked tysm ❤️

[pearl forge]

Damn you for wasting my precious time

[steep zinc]

Anyone have any good guides to getting started in the Better Mc modpack? Any good farms to set up or anything?

[pearl forge]

I have better things to do, like playing skyrim

[stark marsh]

Sorry :/

[trail thunder]

Look up a 100days video

[steep zinc]

Anything slightly more condensed? The ones I'm looking up are hours long. And that's time I could be wasting dying in minecraft!

[trail thunder]

Well ig no

Maybe just get into it

[hot breach]

any chance there is a possibility to take spawners with you in this modpack?

[trail thunder]

Yeah

Shift+right click with both hands empty

[hot breach]

love you

[grave bluff]

1. added 3 mods (create, create additions, applied energestics 2) and changed mack tick time to -1
2. prism launcher
3. 1.20.1
4. v21 better mc
5. not sure it just seems like the server has issues with many people in different places/chunks being generated quickly
6. happens at random points
7. running on ubuntu on different device and i dont know how to get files to this computer
8. Client yes server no

[stiff stirrup]

logs will be very necessary figure a way out to get them

[fleet oxide]

Same problem

1. No mods added
2. Prism launcher
3. 1.20.1
4. V21
5. Exploring the world
6. Not sure
7. The crash report will just say memory allocation problem, but the server ram is still just at 50%
8. Yes

[hot breach]

We have some mod to teleport on long distance?

[icy estuary]

waystones

[fleet oxide]

Xaero’s Waypoints (free) or blue skies’ stargazer (but it costs xp)

[atomic narwhal]

can only do xaero's waypoints if cheats are enabled I'm pretty sure

[hot breach]

true

[fleet oxide]

Idk it was part of the modpack for me, but yeah blue skies’ stargazer works, AND i forgot the teleporter core from an ender mod that i forgot the name

[hot breach]

i mean without ever being in that place because we're playing on a server

[icy estuary]

just use the waystone

from the waystones mod.

[hot breach]

it doesn't work like that because with waystone you need to have been to that location and then you just teleport

[icy estuary]

What do you need to tp to a place you havent been to for

[fleet oxide]

Stalwart dungeons is the name of the ender mod with the teleporter core but like the stargazer you need to have been to the place you want to tp to

[hot breach]

One of my friend was there

ok, ok i got it

thx

[fleet oxide]

Ohh then use sharestones or bound scroll on the waystone

[wide ore]

Hello! I am playing BetterMC Forge 1.20.1 through the Curseforge launcher, and it seems that certain features in the Aether arent working properly. Specifically rings not working as intended, and not being able to craft a furnace out of holystone. Does anyone know what may be happening?

[stiff stirrup]

7 we need the file

[onyx yoke]

I'm fighting the king

And I didn't know that I gonna need a bow

Did it

Found out, using a shield is super good against it

I just found out, that I did the most difficult boss in aether before doing the other ones

[whole hull]

how can I obtain more dragon eggs?

[grave bluff]

plus these are some of the other logs from today there are still a few more

[stiff stirrup]

jeez

any crash reports?

[steady swallow]

The aetherwhale king is not the most difficult in the aether

the Valkyrie queen is

at least from my experience

[atomic narwhal]

yeah, valkyrie fights are awesome

[icy estuary]

awesome?

awesome?

awesome?

not in SteamPunk

[steady swallow]

i farmed the whale for a bit but the queen is hard bro

[icy estuary]

im traumatized

[atomic narwhal]

imo yeah, I love valkyrie fights

[icy estuary]

[steady swallow]

it was cool to fight the queen but it took some time before learning the strategy on how to heal

cause my problem was that i had no time to heal

also i fought the valkrie queen boss with a friend

whereas the whale i soloed tons of times

[grave bluff]

no i only got crash reports from the aether bug but from what i can tell its like the server just shuts down

[stiff stirrup]

what version are you playing again of the modpack

[grave bluff]

v21 i updated it today

[grave bluff]

if this helps these are the changes i made

[stiff stirrup]

I’ll be home in like 10 minutes and I’ll come around and check

[grave bluff]

alr thank you

[chilly gale]

Hello, just updated my server and client to BMC4 v21
Server running fine, client's running fine, but when I attempt to connect to my server I get the following message.
Not well versed in Minecraft modding, how do I go about sorting this out?
https://i.imgur.com/mRExKvB.png

[grave bluff]

just a quick question how much ram should be allocated usually?

because i allocated 7g to it

so im confused why its just killing

[agile cradle]

single or multi?

[grave bluff]

no crash report or anything

[agile cradle]

how many players you got playing on the server?

[stiff stirrup]

Reinstall the server files, so basically just delete it and install it again if you wanna keep your world, transfer it out before you delete it

[agile cradle]

There's been a bug with redux's update not being recognized

[stiff stirrup]

reinstall should fix

[whole hull]

how can I obtain more dragon eggs?

[tiny mural]

Anyone else experiencing the issue, that snow doesnt melt on claimed chunks? Any fix for that?

[pearl forge]

Did you give the sun permission on your claimed chunk?

Im just joking, i have no idea how to fix this

[tiny mural]

[grave bluff]

5

[agile cradle]

base of 4 gigs, add 1 gig per player.

[grave bluff]

so i should upgrade my server

i only have 8gb

and im allocating 7g

[agile cradle]

you can add another gig or two to give some leeway, but too much can cause issues.

[stiff stirrup]

[pearl forge]

Which BMC are you playing? 🤔

[stiff stirrup]

server should be 100% fine with 5 players on 8gb

[agile cradle]

though if you wanna have a bit extra if you add more players down the line it's fine

[grave bluff]

nah thats the plan

just me and my friends

[grave bluff]

do you think i should allocate all 8 gigs i have available?

im not using bisect im using this one called digitalocean bc i have free credit on there

[stiff stirrup]

hmm does it have more than 8gb? or 8gb max

[tiny mural]

4

Ive also noticed that our server crashes upon entering the Aether

[pearl forge]

Are you on the newest version? (v21)

[grave bluff]

yea i have 8gb available for the droplet(actual server) but i want to allocate the 8gb in jvm arguments

[tiny mural]

How do I check?

[stiff stirrup]

update aether redux to 1.3.3

[pearl forge]

It should be 1.3.3 in v21

[tiny mural]

Just on the server or for every player aswell

[pearl forge]

thats why im asking 😄

[stiff stirrup]

check variable.txt

[pearl forge]

Well.... if you see 1.3.3 in the mods folder like here, then you are in v21

v20 has 1.3.1 iirc

[stiff stirrup]

you are v20

either update modpack and server

or mod only

!updateserver

[still sentinel]

https://youtu.be/9dLMOiPp_Vk

[stiff stirrup]

!updatemodpack

[still sentinel]

https://youtu.be/-LoNDI3CD0U

[grave bluff]

so i have 7gb set as min and max

[stiff stirrup]

make it 8

[grave bluff]

ok

also just thought of something

[tiny mural]

if I update the server like that, Im guessing all the settings in the config files will have to be redone by me right?

Such as backpack size etc.

[grave bluff]

the modloader got updated in the new v21 update right?

but the variables.txt

is the same

idk if that could cause issues just speculating

[stiff stirrup]

no not same

[pearl forge]

you could just make a backup of your config folder, and after updating overwrite it

[tiny mural]

Alright, appreciate it

[pearl forge]

the only thing that could happen is that balance changes made for the modpack arent there (if they even exist :P)

[grave bluff]

i also set tick speed ton -1 instead of 120000 bc i heard that can help should i change it back

[stiff stirrup]

kinda helps kinda not

[grave bluff]

alr we'll see

i think ill run it again if it crashes ill lyk

[tiny mural]

Do I need the modernfix aswell for the update of the server?

Based on the video only mods, defaultconfigs and config

But in the video he doesnt have that folder

[pearl forge]

iirc the video clearly tells you that "if you have other folders in the zip, delete them all"

maybe you paused too early 😄

[tiny mural]

Oh, my bad

[grave bluff]

also does this help to run this command /spark profiler --interval 100:

[stiff stirrup]

spark records lag

doesnt fix lag

[hoary bramble]

it will help to scope down the issue

[tiny mural]

Is there a limit of backpackinventorySize I can assign?

The 1 row backpack is quite small so I would like to make it big

[stiff stirrup]

upgrade the backpack

[tiny mural]

Wym

[stiff stirrup]

upgrade

backpack

[tiny mural]

How do I do that then

[stiff stirrup]

that 1 row limit isnt a limit, its just tier 1

what is it

travelers backpack?

[tiny mural]

Backpacked

[stiff stirrup]

well than

[tiny mural]

as far as I know I can just change this

[stiff stirrup]

lucky that i have 0 fucking clue on that lmao

[tiny mural]

But whats the limit here

[stiff stirrup]

you can ask the mod devs on that

[grand pendant]

We suggest renting a server from Bisect Hosting:
Approx. $10 - $25 a month depending on what plan you choose. You can also get 25% off with Code LunaPixel.

Go to https://www.bisecthosting.com/LunaPixel and order a plan which fits you. We suggest 1GB per player but nothing lower than 4GB as the server needs at least 3GB to run.

Go to #server-hosting for more Info!

Free Method: (This is hosting on your own PC, which is harder to do so we suggest getting a server via Bisect Hosting)

1. Download the serverpack from Curseforge's website
2. Right click the start.ps1 file and click Run with Powershell
   To join your own server, type localhost into Direct Connect.
   This video explains the process https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuGUbVbLsDc
   The server IP address is your Public IP Address, which can be found by googling my ip address

If other players are unable to join, find a portforwarding guide online.

Does anybody know if i can copy a world from curseforge Delete Better mc reinstall it and paste the world back in with no problems?

[stiff stirrup]

yes

works fine

[atomic narwhal]

yes, you can, I would move saves folder to a different folder, reinstall bmc, and then put saves folder back in

[stiff stirrup]

i suggest a better alternative

!alternates

[still sentinel]

If this command was run in response to your question/issue, it is likely because switching away from the launcher you are currently using would fix your problem.
From our experience, the most stable launcher by far is ATLauncher, also known as ATL.

To install ATLauncher, do the following:
1. Go to https://atlauncher.com/download
2. Install and run the setup, then open the program.
3. Login to your Microsoft account that owns the Java Edition of Minecraft from the Accounts tab on the right. This process is 100% safe, as it goes directly through Microsoft. ATLauncher does not see your account credentials.
4. Go to the Packs tab on the right, then click "Curseforge" on the left.
5. Search the modpack you wish to download.
6. Click "New Instance". Click "Ok" on the opted out mods warning, then click "Open All" on the manual download screen.
7. Let the mods download, ATLauncher will grab them from your Downloads folder and automatically add them to the modpack.
8. Go to the Instances tab, and click "Play" on the modpack you downloaded. If you ever see an "Update" button on the instance, click it.

To transfer your Curseforge world to ATLauncher, simply right click the modpack on Curseforge, or click the 3 dots, then click "Open Folder". Copy the Saves folder, then click "Open Folder" on ATLauncher and paste the Saves folder there.
Because ATLauncher downloads the exact same files as Curseforge does, your world will be the exact same and you will be able to join the same servers. ATLauncher also works without an internet connection (after you've installed the modpack, of course), and does not have any bloat from Overwolf. You are free to uninstall both Overwolf and Curseforge with ATLauncher installed.

[jade ravine]

Havent changed anything, CurseForge, 1.20.1, v21, It recently started doing this and usually it says " errors in currently selected data packs prevented the world from loading"

anything will help

[broken river]

I updated the modpack when it said it had one
