Frequently asked questions

  1. What is there for 1.17?

    19 of the 117 mods documented here ship a 1.17 build, from 14 makers. They split as Fabric 19, Forge 15, NeoForge 12, Quilt 9.

  2. What loader has the most for 1.17?

    Fabric carries the most here on 1.17, 19 mods. A mod is built per loader and per version, so the file has to match both. One profile runs one loader.

  3. Can I use a newer mod on 1.17?

    No. A jar is compiled against one game version. A build for 26.2 will not load on 1.17, and the other way round it fails too. The mod page names every version its maker signed off.

  4. Do you host 1.17 files?

    14 of the 1.17 files sit on our own server, unchanged, with the checksum of the maker's build beside them. The rest link to the maker because his licence keeps every right with him.
