BaseLayer

by ArthurOrsi

BaseLayer supplies the shared code and APIs that the ArthurOrsi mod series depends on, so those mods can load and run stably together.

FabricForgeNeoForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.17.1 – 1.21.11

What it does

BaseLayer adds no visible content to the game. It contains the core code and APIs that other mods from the ArthurOrsi series call on to operate correctly. Players install it so that the mods built on it start without initialization errors.

The library also optimizes resource loading and is written to keep different extensions working together without conflicts. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Builds are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 18 release versions, 1.17.1 – 1.21.11, and the code is licensed under All rights reserved, so the library is not open source.

Key features

  1. Shared library foundation

    Provides a base of common tools that mods in the ArthurOrsi series can build on, rather than each mod carrying its own copy.

  2. Optimized resource loading

    Loads game resources with a lighter, more efficient process than mods that handle loading separately.

  3. Conflict-free extensions

    Keeps separate extensions working in harmony, reducing clashes when several mods from the series are installed together.

  4. Version matching

    Its version must match the one the primary mod asks for, so manual installs avoid initialization errors.

Use cases

Running the ArthurOrsi series

Install BaseLayer when a mod from the ArthurOrsi series lists it as a requirement, since most of those mods need it to start.

Server installs

Server owners add it next to the series mods, with every player joining with the same version.

Who it’s for: Players and server owners who run mods from the ArthurOrsi series, and mod authors who want a shared base of tools for their own extensions.

Questions

Does BaseLayer need to be installed on the server?

Yes. Installation covers the server and each player's game.

Which loader should be chosen for BaseLayer?

Builds exist for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. The file for the loader that the primary mod uses is the one to install.

Why must the BaseLayer version match the primary mod?

The primary mod requires a specific BaseLayer version. A mismatch can cause initialization errors, so the versions should agree.
