Please forgive me if this is the wrong place to post this question.

 

I am trying to help my son install forge and not enough items mods. He is running Minecraft 1.8.9. Can anyone clarify for me if the version of minecraft, forge and the mod have to be the same? I'm very confused.

 

Thank you to anyone who can help.

Forge and Forge mods only run on specific versions of Minecraft. Forge is available for Minecraft 1.8 and 1.8.8 (as well as earlier versions), but Not Enough Items is only available for 1.8 (as well as earlier versions).

 

You can select the Minecraft version to download Forge for on Forge's download page.

 

Most Forge mods include the Minecraft version they're designed for in their version numbers or on their download pages.

Please don't PM me to ask for help. Asking your question in a public thread preserves it for people who are having the same problem in the future.

I think he is running 1.8.9. It is my understanding that when we install forge, it puts the version of Minecraft to that same version. Is that correct? Or is he not able to use it until there is a new version of forge/not enough items mod?

 

There are so many places to download these. I went in and deleted all of the ones we tried to make it clean again. Do you recommend a specific source to download?

 

Thank you for helping me be a super mom in helping him do this!

    • The game crashed whilst unexpected error Error: net.minecraftforge.fml.ModLoadingException: Advanced Mining Dimension (mining_dimension) encountered an error during the done event phase
    • Here is the end of the log. it was way too big to put in pastebin, but I started from when I was online and everything was fine. Error should be in here: https://pastebin.com/Sdhdq593
    • 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.
    • 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.
