I think that it would be very helpful that mods folder would be named with version number. For example mods-1.6.2, because I have (maby someone else also) many profiles with different minecraft versions and some mods are not combitable with newest game version so it just gets error message.

Mods/{minecraft version} is scanned for mods as well also you can use the launchers gameDir option.

Cluttering the root dir is a horrible idea.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

It would be nice if it would scan the version-folder (additionally) according to the 'id' in the json...

At the moment it scans mods/ and e.g. mods/1.6.2/ ...

It would be nice if it would also scan e.g. mods/1.6.2-Optiforge/ if you launch the Version with that name...

 

Yea I know there is the gameDir option but i never use mods which add/modify any Ingame-object.

Only optical/hud additions and tools. Like Optifine, Inventory Tweaks, Minimap, NEI etc...

...so no need to scatter my Worldfiles around... (which the gamedir-option would)

But multiple versions with multiple mod-combinations would be nice

(e.g. Inventory Tweaks isn't allowed on the Hive-Server and i don't need ArmorHUD on my Creative maps most of the times...)

 

And yes I know there is the option to load mods as libraries over the json but that's way too complicated for frequent changes...

 

...I already have looked into the code how to do that a bit and I think the Version-Id is saved in Minecraft.field_110447_Z ... so perhaps call discoverer.findModDirMods again with that in the path...?

 

Edit: Or as an alternative: is there a way to easily en/disable mods ingame?

The game is not reliably given that information when launching. Either way, the official answer is use gameDir.

if you don't like this, make sym links to your world dirs.

Aside from that, deal with it.

      pack.mcmeta and resource pack not recognized

      By Redstone Dreamer · Posted

      Update: I stand corrected as I was able to dig up a relevant log from my earlier testing which highlights the overall issue but does not explain how to solve it. See, Diagnostic Logs for pack.mcmeta not found: https://pastebin.com/LXS8Rtna

      Which mod was this? What are all the mods that were in use? It will help if enough information to replicate the problem is available.

      pack.mcmeta and resource pack not recognized

      By Redstone Dreamer · Posted

      I have been attempting to create a supplementary resource pack with Patchouli in order to add back the guidebook for Better End but unfortunately in every prototype I have made pack.mcmeta and my resource pack are not recognized. I have tested both zipped and unzipped and either way curseforge does not recognize my resource pack as existing. For testing I stripped my pack down to just the pack.mcmeta file and two empty folders labelled data and assets and I know the data folder is not the problem as firstly my first attempts just had an assets folder following Patchouli instructions and data came later in my flailing attempts to make anything in my pack work. The mcmeta file is not recognized whether or not I use this:  { "pack": { "pack_format": 15, "description": "A replacement for the BetterEnd Guide Book." } "language": { "en_US": { "name": "English", "region": "United States" } } } ,or this:  { "pack": { "pack_format": 15, "description": "A replacement for the BetterEnd Guide Book." } } I have made sure to only use lowercase and the pack folder is named better-end-guide. Is this some magic nonsense from me doing this manually instead of using an IDE or similar tool? Could it be because my files are by default in UTF-8 even though ANSI gives the same results? Is there a specific community secret tool I am supposed to use for zipping or specific settings? I am pulling my hair in distress. Unfortunately as there are no errors involved I lack logs to offer, if that disqualifies this thread please do not be harsh and instead if you can then please direct me to a forum with different rules and sufficiently respectful but knowledgeable as to be of assistance. Most of my experience with the programming community has been poor and so naturally I find myself wary.
