Guy dropped peak just to shit on the Minecraft trailers.

That looks like generic medieval fantasy slop IMO

I mean, you're not wrong, it is very detached from Minecraft. I'll take it over whatever the movie is going to end up being.

I've seen professional tard wranglers before, glad you got out.

 

[Anonitolia]

alright, my apologies, I'm going to ask for some spoonfeeding again.

Curseforge is driving me crazy. It takes ages to load, shoves ads down my throat, doesn't even bypass the default launcher and takes ages to verify older mods for newer versions. I need a new launcher.

I had the misfortune of being made to use Prism, a piece of shit that can't download random mods without crashing or simply not adding them without explanation. I have attempted to use Technic and been found severely wanting.

Reading backwards in the thread, I'm seeing ATLauncher and both PolyMCs (Poly and Polly) being suggested the most, but ATLauncher seems to have an explicit sponsorship with a specific hosting service that's obnoxious enough to be plastered front and center on the home page of their website (so I don't doubt that I'll be getting a face full of it in the actual launcher) while PollyMC hasn't been updated in the last year. PolyMC seems to be the only real alternative left, so I'm considering that, but I know this awful modding community and I've heard there's been a "brain drain" in the dev team due to drama, so is it even worth following anymore or is it just getting worse with each successive update?

Am I just being preemptive when I shouldn't be? Is ATL perfectly fine or Poly/Polly still in active dev? Has the drama not affected all this dumbshittery nearly as much as I seem to think it has? Am I overthinking things and better off just dealing with Curseforge's BS while the community sorts itself out? It sure does seem to be the only stable source of mods that has a dedicated launcher at this point.

Pls enlighten. I just want to play minecrap. This is painful.

 

[Tri-Tachyon'sClown]

It takes ages to load

Really? Maybe they don't have a close enough server near you, everything pretty much loads instantly (then again my Wifi is pretty good albeit unstable) so it might be that.

shoves ads down my throat

Adblock nigger, that's like the first rule of dealing with the modern internet.

doesn't even bypass the default launcher

You mean the Minecraft Launcher or the Curseforge (Overwolf) Launcher. The former is ass and the latter is both double ass and borderline spyware and strangely system chugging IIRC.

I had the misfortune of being made to use Prism, a piece of shit that can't download random mods without crashing or simply not adding them without explanation. I have attempted to use Technic and been found severely wanting.

>Prism
Faggot fork of a based launcher (which itself is a fork of MultiMC). You can find the shenanigans in the thread...maybe, I might need to repost them but TL;DR PolyMC's founder is based. He saw the devs trooning out but tolerated them so long as they stuck to coding and nothing else, they proceeded to try and shove troon politics in the launcher or some shit, he called it out and told them to cut it out, they sperged out and tried to discredit and sabotage him, he booted them off, they went off to make Prism while he (slowly) kept developing, they spread misinformation about PolyMC being compromised (it's not, it's open source and people can check for themselves), and now it's "Damnatio memoriae" by normies and plebbitors. People jerk Prism off to no end for basically doing what other launchers do but maybe prettier? I never used it so eh. I recommend PolyMC still, and so does this guy apparently.
Technic is...ancient, it was mostly used during the heyday of modded Minecraft along with the FTB Launcher like a decade ago, back before modpacks could be downloaded from most launchers. That being said, I don't think it was ever really updated, at least on the UI part, it's clunky and not really worth using (I think there was some big drama a while back but I don't know). It was my first launcher (well the cracked one was) back in the day, good times.

ATLauncher seems to have an explicit sponsorship with a specific hosting service that's obnoxious enough to be plastered front and center on the home page of their website

The Launcher itself has none of this and I haven't been to the website since I first downloaded it about a year or two ago. I turned off my adblocker just to see what you were on about but do you mean just this?

I mean, yeah it moves with the page, but it's tiny. I've seen a few sites do something like this but it was much worse (Fandom comes to mind). Are you this annoyed by it?

PollyMC hasn't been updated in the last year.

Doesn't need to be, if something ain't broke or even struggling to function what is there to do? Here's a document I found if you want to try it (though I'd also just use the original PolyMC unless you don't want to deal with accounts).

PolyMC seems to be the only real alternative left, so I'm considering that, but I know this awful modding community and I've heard there's been a "brain drain" in the dev team due to drama, so is it even worth following anymore or is it just getting worse with each successive update?

Yeah like I said, every original dev left and now it's a one man show since the original devs tried to fuck it up because politics. It's still being worked on but the cancer's removal came at a cost of crippling development. Again, works just fine but don't expect updates anytime soon, not that it's a huge deal since it still works fine.

Am I just being preemptive when I shouldn't be?

Ye.

Is ATL perfectly fine

Ye.

Has the drama not affected all this dumbshittery nearly as much as I seem to think it has?

Drama is unfortunately everywhere and there will always be it, but it only really exists in people's head so unless a developer is some super pedophile groomer serial killer or letting said drama get to them and destroy their work, it doesn't matter. The previous faggotry mention in this thread hasn't stopped certain people's mod from not being used for example.

Am I overthinking things and better off just dealing with Curseforge's BS while the community sorts itself out?

Just don't use their launcher, and you can probably find most if not all that you're looking for regarding mods on Modrinth if Curseforge is being gay. And if the community gets uppity for the nth time, ignore it because:

Mostly, there was a malware attack or two on Curseforge and maybe Modrinth but those are few and far between and relies entirely on people's idiocy more than anything and it helped up the security of popular mod sites in the end, but stay vigilant anyway. Just stick to sites like the ones mentioned and if you want to download from a site that you're not sure, look around for there is bound to be someone who asked "is this site safe." Would recommend checking out this video too.

It sure does seem to be the only stable source of mods that has a dedicated launcher at this point.

And now I hope you think otherwise, Overwolf was so garbage that Curseforge had to remove it because no one liked it and it causes all sorts of issues, and not even it's removal saved that launcher. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask here and I hope I didn't write too much. It's incredibly easy to get into modded Minecraft now and I'll probably summerize this big ass post into a smaller one another time.

Adblock nigger, that's like the first rule of dealing with the modern internet.

My Adblock doesn't work on separate apps, unfortunately

You mean the Minecraft Launcher or the Curseforge (Overwolf) Launcher.

The latter launches into the former instead of launching straight into the game like a normal launcher would. It's very annoying and makes the already-obscene load times even longer.

The former is ass and the latter is both double ass and borderline spyware and strangely system chugging IIRC.

Can confirm, the stupid thing eats more than Google Chrome did when I used that years and years ago. Always seems to have another update ready, too, which never changes anything. Absolute embodiment of modern-app awfulness.

>Prism

Yep, saw those while searching for an alternative. Made me dirty for using it for even a minute, especially after seeing how blatant a rip-off it is of what it forked.

Technic is...ancient, it was mostly used during the heyday of modded Minecraft along with the FTB Launcher like a decade ago

lol, conveniently when I last played modded Minecraft/even base Minecraft. Makes sense, I'll keep away from it I suppose. Poor thing, I've got a lot of memories with it but it has not aged well.

The Launcher itself has none of this and I haven't been to the website since I first downloaded it about a year or two ago.

I'll take your word for it because i'm desperateand this site is generally trustworthy when it comes to this kind of stuff.

I turned off my adblocker just to see what you were on about but do you mean just this?

Yeah. It's a lot larger on my end for whatever reason and my adblock isn't catching it. Good to know it's just my PC being shit.

You're still recommending either Poly over ATL though, so I guess it's no issue?

Doesn't need to be, if something ain't broke or even struggling to function what is there to do?

Add support for newer Minecraft versions, I assumed. Bit of a boneheaded move on my end to not assume there was something built-in to handle that but, to be fair, it was like 1am.

Yeah like I said, every original dev left and now it's a one man show since the original devs tried to fuck it up because politics. It's still being worked on but the cancer's removal came at a cost of crippling development. Again, works just fine but don't expect updates anytime soon, not that it's a huge deal since it still works fine.

Informative, thanks!

Am I just being preemptive when I shouldn't be?

Ye.

Is ATL perfectly fine

Ye.

lol, figured. My bad, seems to be a habit of mine.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask here and I hope I didn't write too much.

It's fine, and thank you lots. No text is ever too much for me so long as you remember to PUNCTUATE so I definitely don't mind this neatly-segmented answer to all my questions.

I'll try to ask when I've got issues haha. I don't want to flood the thread with QA. Thanks again, though, it's really appreciated.

I guess I'll check out Polly and see how far that gets me. I don't particularly love my ancient Minecraft account at this point, it's got a skin I picked out when I was 6 that I consider too sacred to change. It'd be nice to have a bunch of disposable cracked accounts at my bidding instead.

EDIT: 4 hours of trying to fix a mod pack in Poly only to learn it doesn't support NeoForge as a mod loader so I can't use my modpack without redoing everything. Stellar.

Doesn't matter much since trying to launch it in Curseforge barely works either, just keeps throwing some fucking "Resource Reload Failed" error that the internet seems to think has 10 different causes (none of which actually relate to any possible causes on my end because 90% of the answers relate to shaders or Optifine, which I don't have). Beyond fed up right now.

Oh God, I completely forgot about NeoForge, good to know. I don't give a shit about NeoForge currently but it does have a promising future, AtLauncher has support for it, you can download it along with Fabric, Forge, "Legacy Fabric" (the fuck is even that?), hell even Quilt, all directly from the launcher. There's also a cracked version it looks like, if you don't want to login. Do be careful, I can only really recommend the official launcher as I never used this crack before.

Post your latest.log, and crash report on pastebin or something and link it here. I may have run into this a few times before. Also what version of MC? Making a modpack is a pain but there's always a way to fix shit, the most recommended thing I can think of is to remove half your mod list, keeping doing this until it loads, add them back one at a time or in small batches until it fucks up again, then slowly remove mods until it stops working and you single out the problem mod. Even then it could just be an incompatibility with another mod but that's a whole different issue.

Ugh, yeah, I wish I didn't have to use it, but all the Forge mods I liked are moving over there instead of porting their shit to Fabric like normal people so I'm kind of stuck with it. I went through my old mod pack to see which of the mods I liked were on Fabric vs NeoForge and it was wild, something like a 1:5 ratio. For every one mod I liked on Fabric, Neo/Forge had like 10. Ridiculously stupid that they're even separate.

AtLauncher has support for it, you can download it along with Fabric, Forge, "Legacy Fabric" (the fuck is even that?), hell even Quilt, all directly from the launcher

Yeah, I've been considering that. Seems to be nearly as bad as Curseforge with loading up, though, and I hate that it boots straight to modpacks and your custom instances are more than halfway down the huge sidebar tumor.

Post your latest.log, and crash report on pastebin or something and link it here.

Funnily enough, it's too big for pastebin. The thing is fucking obscene and I'm actually not sure I can fit it onto any external website intact. Here's as much of the last parts of it as I can fit in a pastebin instead (since that's where the errors tend to crop up).
(There's no crash report, though. It doesn't crash the game, just make the resource packs functionally useless. Shit ton more "missing model/texture" mentions though, for reasons I cannot fathom.)

Also what version of MC?

1.21.1

remove half your mod list, keeping doing this until it loads, add them back one at a time or in small batches until it fucks up again, then slowly remove mods until it stops working and you single out the problem mod.

That's what I've been thinking of. Only came up with the idea when I didn't have the time to do it, unfortunately. That'll be a huge pain given the comically enormous size of this modpack, but I probably have enough free time to do it. Dunno.

it could just be an incompatibility with another mod but that's a whole different issue.

Yeah, and it would give me a message on start-up. I actually got this when I first booted the pack up and have since cleared the problem ez-pz, that shit's pretty familiar to me given my schizophrenic approach to making packs. "Resource Reload Failed" is new though, especially since it doesn't give a crash report or any symbol of its appearance save for a brief pop-up in the top right of your screen and the total inability to use resource packs.

----

EDIT: Nevermind, it crashes upon trying to open either single or multi player. Exit code is -805306369. Says I can fix this by allocating more RAM but I've more than doubled my already-enormous previous amount so I'm lost. Whatever.

----

EDIT 2: I solved the problem! For some reason, one of my mods was referencing an object class that didn't exist? And this somehow

• killed all sound
• made Resource Packs unusable
• crashed the game whenever I tried to play it

no fucking clue why it was redirecting me to add more memory, or blaming missing objects in completely different mods, or anything. But it's fixed now and I can feed my addiction once again. Yaaaaay

edit 3 spoke too soon

 

[reptile baht spaniard rid]

My experience is that PolyMC is fine, but if it doesn’t work for a mod pack, find the mod pack and see what they recommend. There’s no harm in having fifty billion launchers.

I rarely if ever “build my own” because anytime I try that I end up with a shitty unbalanced copy of GTNH.

I've never had this issue, then again I never touched 1.21 or NeoForge so it might be an issue with one of those? Also Privatebin might be able to handle the entire log, just make sure to set it for more than a day as it auto deletes. I also just heard of an alternative called mclo.gs that'll probably be good too, even color codes warning and errors. You can also just post the log file on some anonfiles alternative (Rip Anonfiles, gofile.io is probably the next best thing).

one of my mods was referencing an object class that didn't exist?

Which mod?

spoke too soon

Same error? And it provides absolutely no crash-log in the Crash-Reports folder (assuming that's the universal name for the crash log folder)? Again the only thing I can recommend is that you remove each mod and add them one by one, launching the game each time you add a mod and its requirement (if it has one), and do the same with the resource packs and data packs but this might strictly be a mod issue. Also which launcher are you using again? Did you switch to AtLauncher or PolyMC?

 

[Anonitolia]

Total Create Death.

Oh hey look at that, another convenient reason not to use automation mods.

[mod help talk]

I appreciate the attempts at help, but the issue just solved itself somehow. I don't know how. I'm too tired to ask how. 10 hours of troubleshooting and I'm just happy I get to play my game.

I want to switch to PolyMC, but even directly installing NeoForge into the directory doesn't make the NeoForge mods load. Polly doesn't let me play servers (the option to add a microsoft account is greyed out) so I can't use it as an all-purpose which is what i'm searching for. ATL's interface is AIDS and your personal instances are squirreled away behind a bunch of modpacks so I'd rather not use it. For now I'm dealing with CurseForge until Poly updates to let you download NeoForge's mod loader directly, because it doesn't seem to recognize the installation in the .minecraft folder of the instance so I've got no clue how else to do it.

Ehhhhhhh. I don't think this bodes well.
I want Notch to make Minecraft 2 as much as anyone else but I don't forsee it turning out well if he's just doing it to appease everyone. Hopefully this poll means he's come up with a good idea for it and has realized that it'll have a far bigger return on investment than his dungeon crawler.
