Unfortunately for you, you may have downloaded one that your device can't handle. If the crash report message popped up for the first time after you opened the modpack, then it not being compatible probably is the culprit. Go ahead and uninstall it, then look for another version to download.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember to carefully go through the new mod's specs sheet, and then compare this information with your computer's. Here's a useful guide on how to find your computer's data on Mac and Windows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here's how you do this on Windows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Click on the search bar from the taskbar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Type in About PC<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on the About Your PC option<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go through the specs on the screen<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Here's how you do this on Mac:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Click on the Apple menu<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to System Settings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click General<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click About<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go through the specs on the screen<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_2_Use_the_Latest_Modified_Version_of_the_Game\"><\/span>Solution 2: Use the Latest Modified Version of the Game<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your Minecraft mod might not be compatible with your vanilla Minecraft version. When there are compatibility issues, you end up facing all kinds of problems, like random crashes, loading issues, and even the unsupported modified version error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the Minecraft launcher you're using, the specific process to update your mod will defer. I've run through how you can use my personal favorite, CurseForge, below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here's what you do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Open <a href=\"https:\/\/download.curseforge.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">CurseForge<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to the My ModPacks section<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on your Minecraft modification<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Press the three vertical dots that are next to it<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on the Change Version option<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the dropdown menu from the Select Modpack version option<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go through the mods versions and choose the latest<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap on the Continue button<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wait for the Modpack to completely update, and then launch Minecraft<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Man-Playing-and-Online-Game-and-Live-Streaming-the-Gaming-Status.jpg\" alt=\"Man Playing an Online Game and Live Streaming the Gaming Status\" class=\"wp-image-5589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Man-Playing-and-Online-Game-and-Live-Streaming-the-Gaming-Status.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Man-Playing-and-Online-Game-and-Live-Streaming-the-Gaming-Status-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Man-Playing-and-Online-Game-and-Live-Streaming-the-Gaming-Status-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Man-Playing-and-Online-Game-and-Live-Streaming-the-Gaming-Status-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_3_Dedicate_More_Memory\"><\/span>Solution 3: Dedicate More Memory<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some Minecraft mods, like the one that you've downloaded, can require more memory than what was given. If this is why you're dealing with the issue, you don't have to do much to fix it. Just try and dedicate more space to Minecraft and its resource packs and see whether this helps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, the process to follow will differ depending on your launcher.
