Mod Scanner
Have you ever wondered: "Did all my mods actually load?" If you create modpacks or play with many modifications, you're probably familiar with this feeling. The game launches, but something seems off. Mod Scanner is a lightweight diagnostic tool that provides a precise answer to this important question.
How It Works
The mod automatically activates when the game starts and creates a clear report in a special log file (modscanner_logs/debug.txt).
- Scanning the /mods folder: Analyzes each
.jarfile and determines what's inside. - Report generation: Generates a readable log with information about how many mods loaded out of the total number found.
- Problem identification: If a mod fails to load, the report will specify the exact
.jarfile name — no guessing required!
Example log file:
Scanning complete. Loaded 120 out of 125 mods from the /mods folder. The following JAR files were not loaded:
- some-cool-mod-1.6.9.jar
- some-junky-mod-4.2.jar
- another-mod-for-fabric.jar
Usage Instructions
- Install the mod and its dependency — Fabric API.
- Launch the game.
- Check the
modscanner_logs/debug.txtfile in the main Minecraft folder to view the report.
Important Features
- This is a client-side only mod. It doesn't need to be installed on a server.
- The mod doesn't add items or game features. Its sole purpose is to provide a diagnostic report.
