Dependencies[edit]

It looks like between 1.15 and 1.23, the dependent version of MCForge changed. Since the typical update usecase is to swap jars in the mods/ folder, it's very important to note updated dependencies.

Quote.pngEDIT: to clarify, I want to know which version of MCForge IC2 depends on. The information is not on Download page; the information is not on the Updates page. Simply saying "always the latest" is actually wrong, because any update to MCForge that isn't exactly synchronized with an update to IC2 depending on it will violate the claim.

Here's the problem: I was running IC2 version 1.15 and I wanted to update to the latests version. I looked at the Updates page and saw that there was a new version out (1.23). I downloaded it, swapped out the jars in the mods/ folder, and ran minecraft. It crashed on initialization with an error as cryptic as "failed to load mod_IC2". The reason is that I needed to remod my minecraft.jar with a new version of MCForge (possibly one of the ModLoaders changed too; idk.). This is not obvious. If the Updates page had said something as simple as "Now depending on MCForge version x.x.x", this situation would have been avoided.Quote.png
