Identify Which Mod Is Causing Null DamageSource Crashes
Check the Log File
When your game crashes due to a null DamageSource error, this mod logs diagnostic information before the crash occurs. Open your game's log file (usually found in .minecraft/logs/) and search for entries related to DamageSource errors.
Read the Diagnostic Output
The mod records details about which mod triggered the broken damage event. Look for log messages that identify the source mod—this is the addon's primary diagnostic feature. The logged information will show:
- The mod that sent the invalid damage
- The type of damage that was broken
- Any entity or creature involved
Report or Disable the Culprit
Once you've identified the problematic mod, you can either:
- Report the issue to that mod's developer with the log details
- Disable that mod if you don't need it
- Keep playing while this addon prevents crashes
This mod doesn't fix the underlying problem in other mods—it just stops your game from crashing and tells you who's responsible. The log file is your best tool for troubleshooting.
