Resolving Missing Dependency Warnings at Startup
Recognizing Dependency Warnings
Certain mods require Ducky Updater Lib to function because they integrate its features to check Modrinth for new versions. If you install a mod that relies on this library but do not have Ducky Updater Lib installed in your mods folder, the game loader will halt during the startup sequence and display a missing dependency screen.
Fixing the Startup Issue
To fix this issue, ensure the Ducky Updater Lib file is present directly inside your active mods directory alongside the dependent mod. Once the library file is placed alongside the other mods, launch the game again. The loader will detect the required library, the game will load to the main menu without interruption, and the library will immediately resume its function of checking Modrinth and sending in-game chat notices whenever updates are found.
