Automatic mod installation when joining a forge server


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I still don't understand why this is not a thing yet but there should be a feature in the for the new 1.13.2 forge for servers where you can set mods for players to automaticly download on there game when they join your server.

So bassicly you would have a mods-client folder in your forge server folder where you would put all the mods that a client needs in order to join your server and if a player joins your server without these mods it would automaticlly download it and "reload" there game so that they don't have to manually install every mod in order to join a server and it would also means that you don't have to "give" your mods to the player since it could be just "streamed" in there game without actually giving them access to the jar files.

No.

Mods are fully fledged applications that run on your computer.

A malicious server could simply put a mod in that folder that installed malware on the client's computer.

 

Not going to happen.

No. Locked.

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.
