Where it goes
Is Ched's Realism Mod required on the client, server, or both?
Installation on the client is optional. Installation on the dedicated server is optional.
The source marks this as usable on both the client and server.
What else does Ched's Realism Mod 1.8.0.1 need?
1.8.0.1. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install Sinytra Connector, Ched's Realism CTM, Puzzle, Forgified Fabric API and 1 more first, but 2 required mods have no matching file for this setup. Do not mix loader builds to force a match. 13 come through another mod in the chain.
13 extra mods were pulled in by other dependencies. Indented rows show who needs each one. We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.
