I am trying to implement a mod of mine as a dependency for a new project, and it is not working. I have been able to implement other mods as dependencies just fine.

The only error I get is: Could not get resource 'https://www.cursemaven.com/curse/maven/modestmining-533775/4389607/modestmining-533775-4389607.jar'. When that link is put into google it shows up as forbidden, unlike other mod links that start downloading the mod when used.

This is how I'm implementing the dependencies in the build.gradle file: (Modest Mining is the one that does not work)

dependencies {
    minecraft 'net.minecraftforge:forge:1.18.2-40.1.86'

    runtimeOnly fg.deobf("curse.maven:appleskin-248787:3927564")
    runtimeOnly fg.deobf("mezz.jei:jei-1.18.2:9.7.0.193")
    implementation fg.deobf("curse.maven:geckolib-388172:4096656")
    implementation fg.deobf("curse.maven:modestmining-533775:4389607")
    implementation fg.deobf("curse.maven:farmersdelight-398521:3999157")
}

I don't understand what the problem is, and don't know where to go from here. Any help is appreciated.

Would you try again now to verify if that is the case? My guess is that it takes a while for curse maven to update and you seem to have tried it immediately after upload.

Yeah it still doesn't work.
I tried to use the previous version of the mod as well which was updated a month ago and it also did not work.

So, after doing some extensive research into this, it seems that your mod is currently opt out of third party distribution. To enable it, see https://support.curseforge.com/en/support/solutions/articles/9000207877-project-distribution-toggle.

Ah I see, thank you.
