Title: is there a way to disable the built-in version checker?
Post by: Deshara on May 15, 2021, 11:56:45 AM
game wont let me run mods that haven't been updated since the last hotfix, which is slightly annoying. I'm about to go in & just manually change those mods' version numbers but I figured I'd ask this while I'm here in case it helps anyone else. And obviously you shouldn't do this as it will make your game unstable

it looks like it was an issue with my mouse double-clicking when I clicked the mods, nvm

Version checker is not built-in, it is a mod. You can disable it in mods list.

yeah, I thought that, but when I emptied my mod folder and stuck lightshow back in the version checker was still there, and I can't find a version checker in my enabled_mods

Have you tried editing the mod files to say RC15?
