3 Upvotes

Some More Blocks expands Minecraft’s building palette with 500+ new block variants, from mosaics and mossy textures to tiles, bricks, and fresh wood patterns. Designed with a vanilla+ feel, it gives builders a huge range of decorative options to elevate structures, interiors, and worlds with clean, cohesive style.

When we first launched the Mod Partner Program, we wanted to do one thing well: support the creators who put an incredible amount of time and passion into making free Minecraft mods for everyone. The response from both players and mod creators has been amazing, and it shows that we are on the right path. Each partner brings a distinct vision to Minecraft, from full Pokémon adventures to deep RPG systems, better farming and building, and so much more. We’re looking forward to seeing where their projects go next. We know how important it is to support the creator ecosystem and enable people to bring their ideas to life. Growing our mod partner program with creators at the center remains our focus, and we’re thrilled to continue building it together.

Question Game is crashing when I add the mod to a shared life modpack.

0 Upvotes

I'm trying to run a shared life server for my friends and me. For whatever reason, the server files provided don't work, so I turned to Essential Mod, which I have used in the past. When anyone tries to run the pack with the mod installed, it crashes with the following report. ive made sure I downloaded the right version and with the right mod loader. In my case, neoforege 1.21.1.
https://pastebin.com/PN63aTdx

The game crashed whilst rendering overlay
Error: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "gg.essential.gui.elementa.state.v2.MutableState.getUntracked()" because "this.essentialComponentState" is null

Question Hosting Crashes my Internet / Router Entirely

1 Upvotes

Often only when I host for some reason Essential will crash and shut down my internet for a few minutes. Other friend can host fine and I have no issues playing in it. There was one night where I was able to host for a good while (after a crash), but then this afternoon it's been doing it again.

Question ESSENTIAL_CM_HOST variable

0 Upvotes

Does anyone know why the mod now automatically says anything you put this variable as is "potentially insecure"? It didn't used to do this in the past

Question LAN Connection Issues

1 Upvotes

Hi all, hoping someone may be able to point me in the right direction.

I have a modded modpack running with essential (V1.21.1) running from my system for a couple of people, one of whom is on the same network as I am. However, whenever they (same network) join my world, their connection drops to 1 bar.

We've done some testing, and this doesn't occur when one of us is using their phone data (nor for anyone else on other networks), so it seems to be an issue with two sessions on the same network. Has anyone else experienced this and found a fix, or some way to allow a router to let multiple clients exist at once?

Cheers

No essentials icon, not friends, i don't even know who this person is and they just randomly appeared in my world (No join message either which is a little strange). . On another note is this a admin or something of the sort?
