My exported mod is not working.

Hello, I recently finished my first MCreator mod for Minecraft. Me and my friend were really excited to prepare it for our server and everything, but when we tested the mod in singleplayer, none of the items appeared. The mod was installed, but none of the elements appeared. I already looked at other reports of this bug and nothing seemed to help. The mod is also letting no one join my friend join his server. Were using the correct modloader and version, so what is going on? Thank you.

How did you export the mod?…

(@EZAubby) Sometimes it's a corrupted cache, if clearing that doesn't work then check for erroring items. Here's some times they appeared on my end:

  • Using an Entity Model for a Block Model (Only happened once, but be careful!)
  • Unknown/Removed procedures
  • Adding plugin elements without their respective API

If you have plugins enabled, check if you used any API elements and didn't enable the API in the Mod Settings section! For example:

  • Adding a Curios Babule without API enabled
  • Using items (likely from other mods) that don't exist in crafting recipes (This usually crashes on world loading though, so this may not be it)
  • Geckolib Animating without API enabled
  • Broken or glitching Plugin

If it's none of these, try clearing gradle cache & reloading gradle project.
