Troubleshooting

  1. 1
    Make sure you download the correct versions of Forge, Mo Creatures, and Custom Mob Spawner for your version of Minecraft if Forge or the mods fail to work correctly. All files must be compatible with your version of Minecraft for the mods to work as needed.
  2. 2
    Try upgrading to the latest version of Minecraft if you continue to experience problems installing Forge and other mods. In some cases, your version of Minecraft may be too outdated to use with some mods.
  3. 3
    Update to the latest version of Java if Minecraft crashes repeatedly or displays a blank screen after installing Forge and Mo Creatures. An outdated version of Java can cause problems with Forge and mods.
  4. 4
    Try reinstalling Forge if there is no “Mods” folder or if there is no Forge profile in your Minecraft launcher. These signs indicate that Forge was installed incorrectly, and must be reinstalled.

    Will this give me a virus?

    If you install Mo Creatures from the right website, it shouldn't give you a virus. In the modding world, there are a lot of reposts of mods that have viruses, so do your research when trying to find a legitimate, reliable download. Ask any friends you have who already install mods for their help. The site I use is Curseforge, and it never steers me wrong.

    No, this only works for PC Minecraft. The console, as well as mobile device versions, are not able to download mods at the moment.
