A lightweight diagnostics and support-report tool for Minecraft modpacks.
The mod validates the player's environment against a configurable modpack profile and helps authors identify common setup problems before requesting full logs or crash reports.
Checks
The profile can define requirements for:
- Minecraft version
- mod loader
- Java version
- allocated RAM
- required mods
- recommended mods
- blocked or incompatible mods
- allowed extra mods
Detected issues are shown in-game through a startup notification and an issues screen.
Support reports
Players can copy a generated support report with one click.
The report may include:
- pack name and profile version
- Minecraft version
- loader and loader version
- Java version
- allocated RAM
- operating system
- detected issues
- missing required mods
- blocked mods
- recommended mods
- extra mods
- installed mods
This gives modpack authors a structured overview of the player's setup before deeper debugging is needed.
Configuration
Modpack authors can configure the diagnostic profile here:
config/vartapack/profile.json
The profile controls which versions, loaders, mods, RAM values, and support links are expected for the modpack.
Usage guide and configuration examples:
PackPing companion
This mod does not check for modpack updates.
For update notifications, use PackPing as an optional companion mod:
Recommended setup:
- VartaPack: diagnostics, environment validation, mod checks, and support reports
- PackPing: modpack update notifications
They can be used separately or together.
Privacy
No telemetry is collected.
Logs, mod lists, and personal data are not uploaded automatically. Reports are generated locally and copied only when the player chooses to share them.
Private paths and usernames are redacted where possible.
