Is this from a pre-made modpack or are you making this pack yourself?

i said that bad, i used mods made by people and added them in, i used packs people made

[colincat08]

i got forge from the forge website thing and got mods from many places

[DaemonUmbra]

So you're saying you took a pre-made modpack and added more mods?

[colincat08]

This + xaeros minimap, couldnt show cuz stupid snip thing wouldnt let me

[DaemonUmbra]

Oh goodness there is so much sketchiness there.

 

Did you get any mods from 9Minecraft or a similar site? If so, delete it immediately.

 

Where did you get that forge-1.12.2.exe that looks like a grass block? Delete that and anything else you got from the same site.

 

If this is your mods folder remove everything related to the installation of Forge.

 

Are you running the server straight off your desktop? Don't do that.

[colincat08]

do you have discord or something, im not the best at typing and i think id be easier to talk than type like this, it may be easier, u dont have to

[colincat08]

I get most my mods from 9Minecraft

That is a bad idea. 9Minecraft and other sites like it illegally redistribute mods, often labelled wrongly or even infected with malware.

Check out the StopModReposts project for more information.

Ok, do u know where I can get mods from safely?
and thx for advice

[DaemonUmbra]

I'd rather not get into discord over this.

 

The problem here is it looks like it would be easier to tell you to just completely delete everything and start over with these changes:

Install the StopModReposts  browser extension, this will alert you when you visit a site that is blacklisted by the project.

Only get Forge from http://files.minecraftforge.net, any other site is NOT the official Forge download and thus may have malware or other undesirable programs shoehorned in.

Only get mods from reputable sources (The most reputable source right now is https://minecraft.curseforge.com), some mod authors insist on using their own websites as the official source, but you should always check CurseForge first, since that's where almost every mod gets uploaded by the author.

thx, i already deleted all my mods

[colincat08]

sry to bother u again but its still happening, i deleted all the mods, replaced them with mods from the good website, and this still shows up.

[DaemonUmbra]

Now we have the original problem, you added mods that were created after the original pack was made, some of these mods require a newer Forge version than the one the pack originally shipped with.

In other words the issue isn’t “Forge is missing”, it’s “I need a different version of Forge”

[colincat08]

ok thx, but xaeros minimap works perfectly, but ill use a different version of forge, thx

 

[colincat08]

do you think you can help me find the forge i need to get this to work, u don't hav to, just asking

That is not the point. Please, take the time to read the page I linked to above.

 

Read the error screen. It lists which Forge version is required minimum for every mod. Take the highest one that any one of them needs.

i did that already, I have no idea what i'm doing, sry

It's an installer, you run it and it will create the new version for you to select in the launcher.
