Update check a little broken
miiichael opened this issue · 6 comments
Hello, I've just created a 1.11.2 pack (containing Ender Storage 1.11.2-2.3.1.116), and I'm outraged dismayed very slightly confused that Minecraft/Forge claims that there's an update available before the paint has even dried on my modpack. I assume it's because the mod and Forge have different ideas of what the mod version actually is, or is getting confused by looking to chickenbones.net for update information.
Thanks!
I am running into the same problem where the EnderStorage mod says it requires an update even though I have the latest version downloaded. I believe the issue is caused by a malformed mcmod.info file. I think that forge is failing to parse the mcmod.info because of the newlines in description field.

]
Edit: This could also explain why the game is able to successfully load. I do not have the CodeChickenCore dependency so the game shouldn't even load up. Since the mcmod.info fails to be parsed, the game doesn't know about any dependencies the mod may need and the game loads and displays the warning shown in the above screenshot.
I've also just noticed this warning from Forge buried in the logs:
[21:57:35] [Server thread/WARN] [enderstorage/]: Mod enderstorage is missing the required element 'version' and no fallback can be found. Substituting '1.0'.
I can confirm this, because i have the latest 1.12 version and it says, that i have 1.0 and the little green icon shows up saying that it needs update while it does'nt.
