Same here, https://mclo.gs/laogcFi
I tried with only libs and optimization mods, because It's really hard to find THE mod that crash the game

Here is a log for a crash with 165 mods installed. It seems that the crash will only happen if there are 165 or more enabled. Why this is the case, I have no clue.

The problem is caused by module "reach-entity-attributes", I just removed the module and rebuild the jar then it works well.

where did you find the module in the jar file and how did you go about doing that?

Just download the source code and open "build.gradle.kts", then remove line below:

includeProject("reach-entity-attributes")

then execute gradle task "Jar" on project ConnectorExtra and get jar in build/lib.

Im using winrar to edit files and stuff and I cant seem to find "build.gradle.kts" anywhere, what software are you using to edit the jar with?

I'm not modifying the release jar file but building a new one from source code.
If you don't wanna do so, you can try this file I build myself.
ConnectorExtras-1.10.0+1.20.1+dev-g9a9680e.zip
Just simply removed supply for "Reach Entity Attributes" which currently incompat with vs2.

[Corn-on-the-Orb]

ahhh i see what you mean now thanks a lot for the help, ive downloaded and made the change to the source code but not sure how to do the final build step you mentioned?

[zxy19]

Refere

I'm not a skilled java developer and cannot help you a lot. You can refer to forge document/gradle document to learn more.

[Corn-on-the-Orb]

removing the module didnt seem to do anything for me but make connector stop working with it, unless ive done it wrong... so ive yet to find a solution to this problem aside rom removing the mods entirely.

Is there any verifiable way to easily find what mods depend on reach-entity-attributes?

Rebuild is not required, you can remove META-INF/jarjar/reach-entity-attributes-2.4.0.jar and remove line three to line thirteen in META-INF/jarjar/metadata.json in release jar file.

Will this be fixed? The band aid fix does not do it for me as certain mods I am using rely on "reach-entity-attributes" from ConnectorExtras.

[Groupix05]

This crash will be fixed in a newer version of Valkyrien Skies, before this year I think. Check their announcement on their discord.

[tlitookilakin]

I have no idea how reliable this is, but I was able to get it working by adding a false dependency to VS, to force VS to load before REA.

If you want to try this, it can be done by opening up the VS jar (using 7zip or winrar) and adding the following to the end of the mods.toml file

[[dependencies.valkyrienskies]]
modId = "reach-entity-attributes"
mandatory = false
ordering = "BEFORE"

[gkr0013]

I had the same issue when adding Valkyrien Skies to the SteamPunk modpack (who uses ConnectorExtra for the Eldritch mod)

[[dependencies.valkyrienskies]]
modId = "reach-entity-attributes"
mandatory = false
ordering = "BEFORE"

Doesn't work for me.

But, remove "reach-entity-attributes-2.4.0.jar" in META-INF/jarjar/metadata.json works.
I don't know what effect it will have on the game...

[tlitookilakin]

I'm not able to remove REA as I have mods that rely on it.

[TowardtheStars]

It works for me, thanks.
