So I have a problem with the mod not wanting to load and crashing Minecraft while it's trying to load the mod and when I view the crash report all it says is "No special character's allowed" regarding the Avatar mod. I've tried only using just the Avatar mod to see if it was conflicting with another mod but it's the Avatar mod itself that crashes my Minecraft. I also tried older versions and it says the same thing. Any tips on how I can fix this? Or does it have to be fixed by one of you that are working on the mod itself? Here is the crash report
