JarJar

by mitchej123

JarJar is a Forge 1.7.10 optimization mod that changes how the loader finds and loads mods, including nested jars packed inside other jars.

What it does

JarJar adds support for nested jars, meaning a mod jar can carry other jars inside it and have them loaded along with it. Its discovery code also picks the latest version of a coremod or mod when several copies are found, so duplicate builds do not both load. The mod depends on lwjgl3ify, which must be installed alongside it.

The changes target the Forge Mod Loader startup path for Minecraft 1.7.10. A parallel mod discoverer speeds up scanning the mods folder, and the ASMDataTable captures interfaces in the way later FML and Forge versions do. A set of speedups drawn from CoreTweaks and newer FML and Forge builds is also included. Coremod loading gains an RFB plugin that improves FML 1.7.10 itself.

Files are published for Forge only, for the single game version 1.7.10, with 0.3.7-beta as the latest file, released 2026-06-18. Either side can run it, and neither needs it. The code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only.

Key features

  1. Nested jar loading

    Mod jars can include other jars inside them, and those nested jars are loaded as part of the outer mod.

  2. Latest version selection

    When several copies of a coremod or mod are found, the newest one is loaded instead of all of them.

  3. Parallel mod discovery

    Scanning the mods folder runs in parallel to shorten the time the loader spends finding mods at startup.

  4. Startup speedups

    Several optimizations from CoreTweaks and newer Forge builds are bundled to reduce work during loading.

Use cases

Mod packs with many jars

Packs that ship many mods, or mods that bundle libraries inside their jars, can start with fewer loading problems.

Slow startup on large packs

Players whose loader spends a long time scanning the mods folder can use the parallel discoverer to cut that time.

Who it’s for: Players and modpack makers running Forge 1.7.10 who want faster mod discovery and support for nested jars. Server owners can add it to the server as well, since it is optional on both sides.

Questions

What does JarJar require?

lwjgl3ify is required and must be installed next to JarJar. JarJar is published for Forge 1.7.10 only.

Does JarJar have to be installed on the server?

No. Installing it on the client alone, the server alone, or both is enough, since neither side needs it.

Which version of JarJar should be used?

The latest file is 0.3.7-beta for 1.7.10, released 2026-06-18. Only builds for 1.7.10 are published.
