This is in that log [26Jan2026 20:59:00.322] [main/FATAL] [net.minecraftforge.fml.ModLoader/CORE]: Error during pre-loading phase net.minecraftforge.fml.ModLoadingException: Mod §ebettercombat§r requires §6playeranimator§r §o1 or above§r §7Currently, §6playeranimator§r§7 is §o§nnot installed Sorry for the formatting, it did it on me automatically. I'd be willing to wager that the playeranimator mod won't run on a server, as there are no animations on a server, that's a client thing.

This is the MinecraftForge forums, NeoForge is not supported here.

I'm unsure which ones, but you have mods that are trying to load client-only classes (like things related to gui screens, mouse input), and the client does not exist on the server. You will need to identify and remove those mods from the server.

See if the the log has changed since you did the run.bat, and if so upload that one to the logs site and share the link. Don't use the server.jar, that just runs the vanilla server.

How are you starting the server? If it's a .bat file, show the contents. Also, please post server logs to a site such as https://mclo.gs and post the link here.

Make sure you have Minecraft Java Edition. Download the forge installer for the version you want from https://files.minecraftforge.net/. (Optional)Use the Minecraft launcher to create a new installation for this version, using a separate game directory, so you do not corrupt existing saves with mod data, or vice versa. Many players find it easier using a launcher such as Curseforge or AT Launcher to make installing mods and modpacks easier. If you do so, these launchers will install MinecraftForge for you.

Cracked launchers are not supported

It would appear your resources are not in the proper place, named incorrectly, or missing files. I would highly suggest setting up data generators, and not writing your json files by hand, as doing so eliminates these errors. There are examples of data generators on the internet, as well as the MinecraftForge github. Link to datagen docs: https://docs.minecraftforge.net/en/1.21.x/datagen/ This page explains resource locations and where to place things if you insist on doing it manually: https://docs.minecraftforge.net/en/1.21.x/concepts/resources/#ResourceLocation

Cracked launchers are not supported

These forums are for MinecraftForge, Neoforge has it's own support site/discord, you would be better served looking for help there.

Do you have java installed? How are you trying to open the installer? Does it do anything at all when you try? Does it generate an installer log?

At a cursory glance on the website, that product does not work with MinecraftForge as a mod. Neoforge is a different mod loader, they have their own support. People may have looked at your post, but not know an answer, so asking for replies from viewers as you did is probably not very useful. If you're looking for a chat room vs a forum, you should join the discord.

Try removing the file ars_additions/glyph_retaliate.toml from the config folder. If it happens again, search the log for "Failed loading", and see if it comes up with any more files. Might be worth a try backing up/removing the whole config folder if it repeatedly happens.

What are you going on about? This is the Minecraft Forge website, having to do with making or using mods for Minecraft Java Edition. Also, moving this post to general discussion, do not post random posts in random places please.

Please explain "downloading some mod via forge", do you mean downloading mods from Curseforge? Which version of Minecraft? Please read the FAQ and post logs as described there, as it will give some details that might explain what is going on.
