Pack Gateway
by snowbirdmv
Pack Gateway is a NeoForge client utility that lets a player advertise which modpack version they run.
What it does
On a client install, the mod lets a player present a specific modpack version when connecting to a server. Its purpose is modpack version verification, so a server can match what a client reports against the pack it expects. It is marked as Client-side only, so only the player's client needs it and the server can run without it.
The mod is published for NeoForge only, with a single release, 1.0.0, built for 1.21.1. It is distributed under All rights reserved and is not open source.
