Annotated DI Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need to install this mod to play?
No — Annotated DI Mod is a library that other mods depend on. You only need it if a mod you want to play requires it as a dependency.
Why does my game crash saying 'Annotated DI Mod not found'?
A mod you installed requires Annotated DI Mod as a dependency. Download and install Annotated DI Mod to the same mods folder as the mod that needs it.
Can I use this mod with other dependency injection mods?
Annotated DI Mod is designed to work alongside other mods without conflicts, but avoid loading multiple dependency injection libraries that try to manage the same classes — stick to mods built for Annotated DI or use only one DI framework per modpack.
Does this mod affect performance or add lag?
Annotated DI Mod only runs during mod initialization to wire up dependencies; it has no runtime performance impact once your game is loaded.
What does 'circular dependency' mean and why does my mod crash with that error?
A circular dependency happens when Class A needs Class B, but Class B also needs Class A — creating an impossible loop. Check your mod's setup guides or ask the mod author to fix the dependency chain.
Can I use Annotated DI Mod in a modpack with mods that don't use it?
Yes — mods that don't use Annotated DI Mod will work fine alongside it; the library only affects mods that are built to use it.
Why does a mod say it needs Annotated DI but I already installed it?
Make sure you downloaded the correct version of Annotated DI Mod that matches your Minecraft version and Forge version — version mismatches will cause the mod to not load properly.
Is Annotated DI Mod required to update my mods faster?
No — Annotated DI Mod is optional infrastructure that mod developers choose to use to organize their code better, but it doesn't affect how often mods update.
What happens if I remove Annotated DI Mod after loading a world?
Your world will likely crash or fail to load if any active mods depend on Annotated DI Mod — always keep it installed if your modpack requires it.
Can I have multiple versions of Annotated DI Mod installed?
No — only install one version of Annotated DI Mod that matches your Minecraft and Forge version; multiple versions will cause conflicts and crashes.
