How do I install MCretector?

Install the matching mod loader (Forge, Fabric or NeoForge) for your Minecraft version. Download the .jar. Put it in the .minecraft/mods folder and launch that loader profile. Opens on CurseForge — not every file is mirrored on our own servers.

What Minecraft version does MCretector work with?

The listing gives Minecraft 1.19.3, 1.18.1, 1.17, among others. This is the version stated by the author or source site, not something we verified ourselves.

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

MCretector

This mod will scan the jar files in your mods folder when the game starts. If any of these files contain the "mcreator" or "procedures" folders, the jars' absolute paths will be printed in the log.

Why?

Note that this mod does not intend to criticize MCreator or the mods created with it.

But some of these mods may have compatibility and optimization issues. Therefore, the mod aims to help modpack authors easily identify MCreator-made mods to prevent any unforeseen issues in their modpacks.
