Understanding CoFHLib as a Mod Dependency

What CoFHLib Does

CoFHLib is a foundational library that other mods depend on to function. It provides common code utilities that mod developers use, rather than creating features you interact with directly in survival mode.

Checking if You Need It

If another mod in your instance requires CoFHLib, you'll see it listed in that mod's dependencies. CoFHLib must be installed in your mods folder for dependent mods to load correctly.

Installation

Place the CoFHLib JAR file in your mods folder alongside other mods you're using. No configuration is needed—it works silently in the background.

Troubleshooting Load Errors

If a mod fails to load and mentions CoFHLib in the error log, ensure CoFHLib is present in your mods folder. Verify the version matches what the dependent mod requires. If problems persist, check that you're using the correct Minecraft version for your mod set.
