Connecting and Troubleshooting

Connecting to the server

Section titled “Connecting to the server”

  1. From the title screen, choose Multiplayer, then Add Server.

  2. Set the server address to:

    forge.devgru-mc.org

  3. Save and connect. You should load into the world and be able to move and place blocks.

The server uses an SRV record, so the port is handled for you. If your client cannot connect by name, use the explicit address forge.devgru-mc.org:25567 instead.

The server is open, so there is no whitelist step before your first connection.

Troubleshooting

Section titled “Troubleshooting”

”You are not whitelisted on this server”

Section titled “”You are not whitelisted on this server””

This should not happen: the server has no whitelist. If you see it, it is a server-side issue rather than anything wrong with your account. Report it in Discord and try reconnecting shortly.

Kicked with a mod mismatch on connect

Section titled “Kicked with a mod mismatch on connect”

If you are disconnected with a message like “Server has additional mods that may be needed on the client” or one mentioning a mod channel, your client modlist does not match the server. Usually this means the server pack has been updated and yours has not.

  • CurseForge app. Update the DEVG MC pack in the app, let it finish, then reconnect. The app does not sync on its own, so a server-side pack update always needs this step.
  • Prism Launcher. Check that the pre-launch command ran: the packwiz installer window appears at launch. If you do not see it, recheck Custom commands in the instance settings (Setup: Prism Launcher, step 4). Relaunch so packwiz can sync, then reconnect.
  • Either route. Confirm the Forge version is 47.4.10, matching the server. A different Forge build can cause a handshake failure.

Where to find your client log

Section titled “Where to find your client log”

If a problem persists, your client log has the details: the disconnect reason and any missing or extra mods are named there. Share it in Discord when asking for help.

  • CurseForge app. Open the instance’s folder from the app, then open logs/latest.log. Crash reports sit beside it in crash-reports/.
  • Prism Launcher. Right-click the instance, choose Folder, then open minecraft/logs/latest.log. Crash reports are in minecraft/crash-reports/.

Game crashes on launch or in-world

Section titled “Game crashes on launch or in-world”
  • Confirm you are on Java 17; Forge 1.20.1 requires it.
  • If you crash with an out-of-memory error, raise the instance’s maximum memory allocation. In the CurseForge app this is in the instance’s settings; in Prism it is under Edit Instance, Settings, Java, in the same panel as the Java version.
  • If it still crashes, grab latest.log and the newest file in crash-reports (paths above) and share them in Discord.
