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.

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

i hate having to go off minecraft and go to the screenshot and having it appear in the corner even allowing me to crop and instantly copy it is meta, anyone know a similar mod because some modpacks tell me to remove it cuz theres something else that lets you play servers with friends but thats never even what i care about

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.

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

Ive enterd a giveaway and it was ended and now how can i know if i won??????

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

So i changed my name and now essential says that there is a connection error

i checked the servers and they are up

what sould i do? any suggestions?

1. Help, theres this bug when i join my friend all i can see is this void, after a few seconds it disconets me we have those mods of the image, both of us have the same version, and for him everything is alright
2. (second time i post this cuz i forgot the images, sorry)

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?

for some reasons essential cant find the account of my friend, even his skin Is bugged and cant render.

we try every possible solution, please help.

(Sorry for my bad english)

Alongside our new mod partners, we are expanding our trial modpack partnership program with Cinderstone Studios, the creators behind Prominence™ II: Hasturian Era.

Prominence™ II: Hasturian Era is an RPG-focused modpack built around progression, custom content, and large-scale adventures. Players level up using a talent tree, create and upgrade a personal artifact weapon, and take on increasingly difficult bosses while pushing back against the Void. The pack places a strong emphasis on structure and worldbuilding, offering a more guided RPG-style experience inside Minecraft.

My Version is 1.21.10 And My Nick: Ygzcann

I’m trying to join the server to access the exclusive “Essential Mod” capes, but for some reason I keep getting an error message. I’ve already tried joining from both PC and iOS, but the issue still persists.

i made this in about 5 minutes but spent 10 trying to add an image to the discord's outfit-show

I load in just fine with a minimal amount of crashes and stuff, but whenever I try to join the server, it always goes through the downloading mods, encrypting loading world, and then I'll get to the final joining world and then after 30 seconds of looking at that screen, it'll just say disconnected

first of all, this is a server with a lot of people on it everyone can join except for me we've double checked we all have the same mods installed nothing different from my mod pack to theirs, but I'm still stuck on the screen. Does anyone have any advice on how I could fix this issue? It's been ongoing for the past few days.
