ForceJava21

ForceJava21

A somehow stupid and cursed mod that forces you to launch Minecraft with Java 21 (and, if you are on 1.16.5, Forge 36.2.41 + is required).

If you are trying to launch Minecraft with Java 20 or below, the following texts will appear in your log, and the game will stop immediately. ``` Please use Java 21 (and Forge 36.2.41+) to launch Minecraft. Current Java version: yourJavaVersion. Current Forge version: yourForgeVersion Recommendations: Zulu: https://www.azul.com/downloads/?version=java-21-lts&package=jdk#zulu Oracle: https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/#java21 Temurin: https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?version=21 ```

But... how can you launch 1.16.5 forge with Java 21?

You can. For details, see #9825.
