Description

Some mods don't tag their mod as being compatible with the latest version. e.g. Better ping display's latest release is supposedly for 1.19 but the mod also works for 1.19.2. Ferium not only doesn't allow you to add the mod, but it also removes it from your mods folder whenever you do ferium upgrade.

Another example is Rat's mischief. The author doesn't allow you to download the mod from third party apps. That's fine. But I should be able to add it to my mods folder manually and tell ferium to not remove it.

Thanks.

Some mods don't tag their mod as being compatible with the latest version. e.g. Better ping display's latest release is supposedly for 1.19 but the mod also works for 1.19.2

The current solution is to add the mod using --dont-check-game-version (The game version will not be checked for this mod) but this solution is rather sketchy. This problem would be fixed by #155

Fair enough. Thanks for informing me of the existing solutions. To be fair, I was looking at the rust docs of ferium, which do not have that section.

Maybe consider adding it :)

THe rust docs are identical to the github readme, you were probably looking at an older version of the docs (common when using links from google). Here is the latest docs
