in this instance i would need to change my version of Forge to something newer but when I do that other mods that work now, won't work after I change the version.

I get my mods from CurseForge.

I make sure to use 1.16.4 mods but minecraft says, for example: "Biomes O plenty requires an older version of Forge. Current version: 35.1.4." If i use the most latest version of forge I have the same problems.

what do you mean by forge and mods do not work across minecraft versions??

I just got minecraft java edition 1.16.4 and I got forge (35.1.4 because i had tried the newest version but the same problems occurr so i tried the recommended version on the install page. ) and optifine working together. But when I use big mods like Decocraft or Bibliocraft, an error screen pops up saying "error has been found while loading" (something like that) The error says that, for example: "decocraft requires an older version of forge." and its the same with bibliocraft and mo creatures. but some mods like, fairylights and natures compass work. The reason i can't use a different version of forge is because then my optifine shaders would not be compatible and other mods that do work now might not work with an earlier version of forge. would worship whoever could help me fix this. my goal is to be able to use the shader pack i love and various mods like the ones above. I also cannot find anything anywhere to help me with this. Is there a version of forge everyone uses that works with everything? what am i missing??
