Frequently asked questions

  1. Is Ars Nouveau plus Mana and Artifice a problem?

    Yes, on the 3 game versions that carry both, and only when the loader matches for each. 1.20.1 is the newest of those. They overlap in what they do, so expect two ways to reach the same result.

  2. Which of the two is lighter to start with?

    Ars Nouveau is rated the lighter of the two.

  3. Is one of them on more loaders?

    Ars Nouveau builds for Forge and NeoForge and Mana and Artifice for Forge. Only one of them covers NeoForge. A jar is built per loader, so the profile you start decides what you can use.
