You must be on the correct patch!
🔹 For Scarab, you must change "Betas" to "None"
🔹 1432 Modding (and ModInstaller) is no longer supported.
🔹 1221 Modding does not use an installer; type "?tag 1221" for info on it.

How to check your Beta option:

wait so i have to have it on none when i first install?

[half yew]

yes, scarab only works on current patch

[acoustic shell]

oh o-o

i thought it worked on older versions

ok thanks

imma test that

[half yew]

the modding API as well as the mods themselves are versions specific

[acoustic shell]

so it will just launch in the version the mod is meant for?

If you are not using current patch, Scarab will not work, and you'll have to use a different installer
