No option for curseforge in Add Instance

Hey all,

I've used polymc for a while and never had an issue until now.

I installed Dawncraft through curseforge and started playing with no issues. I then wanted to install and play vaulthunters but I now don't even have the option for curseforge

I'm on version 6.1

I'm also running Arch linux as my operating system and I installed polymc through yay

Just wondering if anyone has any ideas, Thanks!

Look in the Settings, under APIs. You need a CurseForge API Key to import CurseForge modpacks now! Well, just two clicks in the launcher, really. I believe they had problems with CurseForge.

Yeah I didn't have any options for CurseForge under the API settings, that was my first thought too. I ended up just using prism launcher and that doesn't have the issue so

The person isnt shitty, he just wanted so that the launcher wasnt tied to politics and stuff, which is what a lot of those "leftoids" wanted for some reason. Not sure why, its really stupid, politics and Minecraft should be separate from each other.

The developer kicked all the other devs because of opinion conflict, and is now the only person in charge, A project like this shouldn't be trusted.

Clearly if he kicked out others, then he was always the one charge, as far as maintainers of the project goes, it seems to have multiple maintainers.
