Modpack UPDATE Guide

  2. Repeat all steps from the INSTALLATION guide
  3. You're all set!

FAQ:

  • Q: Why should I manually get rid of some specific non-mainlined mods when updating?

    • A: Because sometimes some mod files become obsolete and no longer used, so you won't need them inside your mods folder anymore, so for dealing with these problems you need to erase the mod and fully reinstall it.

  • Q: After updating my save file no longer loading!

    • A: It is rare, but will happen when some mod that've been used in your save has new ID and/or name, or you're trying to load the mod that is no longer used/merged with other one. You can fix it by reading debug.log to view what's mod should be changed, then go to cdda\save\world_name\mods.json and replace target mod ID with the new one, or erase it's entry from this file if there is no replacement. Also, you can read latest commits to see what is happening, if you want

Example commit of mod ID change: c72f700f2fe35e2e5bd32995917746b47edb428e

Example commit of mod erasure: 603464b7d4ee27430b84f3625cc4644f4510fb53

  • Q: I have some other issues to report!
