Modpack Update Checker

by Reverie Projects

Players who maintain a modpack can use Modpack Update Checker to see which of their installed mods have newer versions available.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltClient or server, optionalCreative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.01.16.5 – 1.21.6

What it does

The mod compares the versions of the mods in a pack against the latest published builds. It runs with Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and builds exist for 1.16.5 – 1.21.6 across 18 release versions, with snapshot builds also published. Only the client needs it, and the server may skip it or add it for extra features. Fabric API is required on Fabric, and Quilted Fabric API (QFAPI) or Quilt Standard Libraries (QSL) is required on Quilt.

The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 license and is not open source. Its latest files are 0.15.6 for 1.21.6 on Fabric, NeoForge and Forge, and 0.15.2 for 1.20.2 on Quilt, all in the beta channel.

Questions

Does Modpack Update Checker need Fabric API on Quilt?

No, Quilt uses Quilted Fabric API (QFAPI) or Quilt Standard Libraries (QSL) instead of Fabric API.

Is the server required to run Modpack Update Checker?

No. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so the server may skip the mod entirely.
