Describe the issue

Attempting to use ETF with broken paths all on 1.21.1 crashes client unless IRIS (and sodium by extension) is installed.
If these are, other issues arise.
For example: Apotheosis gems and custom gear tooltips are broken, as well as boss spawning Shadows-of-Fire/Apotheosis#1509

Your setup: (please complete the following information):

• Minecraft version: 1.21.1
• ModLoader: Neoforge 139
• ETF Version 6.2.9
• Does the issue persist with only ETF installed? Yes
• Have you checked the FAQ in the Readme, or Discord, to see if it is a known issue? Yes

yep

thats the kind of thing that will happen if you turn it to all, there is a reason it recommends you dont in the tooltip and also isnt that by default

some other mod is using an invalid path and DEPENDS on that path breaking in a controlled way, there is nothing ETF can do without adding even more contrived validation for paths

if you are stuck unable to reset the setting simply delete the ETF config file under the donfig directory in your minecraft folder, or opne it and try to delete the line for just that setting
