Flywheel Version Fix Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

Why does my game crash on startup asking for a specific Flywheel version?
Multiple mods in your pack may depend on different Flywheel versions, causing a version conflict at launch. Flywheel Version Fix Mod resolves this by allowing mismatched Flywheel dependencies to coexist without triggering crash screens.
Do I need to install Flywheel separately if I have this mod?
Yes, you still need Flywheel installed—this mod patches compatibility issues between Flywheel and mods that demand specific versions, but doesn't replace Flywheel itself.
Can I use this mod with mods that have conflicting rendering library requirements?
Yes, that's the main purpose of this mod. It lets you run mods with different rendering library dependencies together in one profile without crashes or mixin conflicts.
What mod loaders does this work with?
Flywheel Version Fix Mod supports Forge, NeoForge, and Fabric loaders, so you can use it across different modding platforms.
Will this mod slow down my game or affect performance?
No, this mod only patches version detection and mixin conflicts at startup—it doesn't add rendering overhead or change gameplay performance once loaded.
Which Minecraft versions are supported?
This mod supports Minecraft 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, which are the primary versions for modpacks using Flywheel-dependent mods.
What's a mixin conflict and why does this mod prevent them?
Mixin conflicts occur when multiple mods try to modify the same game code in incompatible ways. This mod prevents Flywheel-related mixin conflicts by allowing different Flywheel versions to coexist without fighting over rendering code patches.
Do I need to configure anything after installing this mod?
No configuration is needed—this mod works automatically on startup to bypass version mismatch screens and resolve dependency errors without player input.
Can I use this mod in a modpack with mods I didn't create?
Yes, this mod is designed for modpack scenarios where you're combining mods from different sources that have conflicting Flywheel version requirements.
What should I do if my game still crashes after installing this mod?
Ensure Flywheel itself is installed and up to date, verify the mod is placed in your mods folder for the correct loader, and check that all other mods are compatible with your Minecraft version.
