    Well, if you didn't notice, look at this bug report.

    Newcastlegeek / HQM BugTracker / issues / #29 - HQM 1024 Player Bug (Carryover from Issue #24) — Bitbucket

    Long story short, he will not fix this bug for agrarian skies (the 90% of players that use this mod) because he "doesn't get money out of it like server owners do." By me, this awesome mod couldn't have a worse dev. Totally unfriendly, does not care about others BUT "pretend" donations when he doesn't even fix major bugs just because of a 6 yr old kid mind.

    I am relatively certain that the dev has actually fixed the issue, it is just not installed in the current version.

    And as of a few minutes ago, fix incoming tomorrow!

    Well, let see how it goes. I hope this will not be a patch where everything was done ASAP just to shut up server owners and has a lot of bugs in it. And the answer for a bug in this version will be: "Didn't you want it as soon as possible? Well, enjoy the bugs as this isn't an official supported version".

    Don't get high hopes on it.[DOUBLEPOST=1401143121,1401117199][/DOUBLEPOST]as I thought, they did just patch it exactly as we asked for 1 month ago but it is an unoffical release and jaded will not put it inside the agrarian skies mod. We are at the same position as be before, as we would have been able to do this small change our self's but as soon as someone joins with the non patched version it will corrupt the save data.

    So this means if we fix the problem we only can use the MyM launcher?

    yes and we would have to write another mod that doesn't let you connect if you don't use the mym launcher. As you could just join with the original hqm build.

    Well, I can't do that but I think that is not too hard adding a mod that.... does nothing! Just throw like "Visit MyM.li/launcher and join from there.jar" mod file coded to be "known" by forge as a mod but that really does nothing other than making the official version mismatching mod when you try to log in the server.

    unfortunately that isn't that easy. There are certain events that get triggered on player join which we have to use. Unfortunately does the hqm mod use the same, so it is likely that we can't kick the user fast enough.

    • Stop players from being able to direct connect to the server
    • Players can only join from the lobby
    • Run the check for mod mismatch on lobby login

    Uhh, this would require us to setup an extra lobby. Write a client mod that creates a md5 checksum of the hqm mod and sends it to the server. Than the server would need to validate that. The next step would be a bridge between forge and bukkit that allows or does not allow the connection to the other servers.

    This is work for about 20 hours for a an experienced dev.

    The problem, ars magica, thaumcraft.. will not work.
