Quick answer
Which Combat Overhaul Fork release should I use?
Combat Overhaul Fork 0.18.4 targets 1.22.0, 1.22.1, 1.22.2. It must be installed on the client. Installation on the dedicated server is optional. 1 required mod needs a matching file.
Where it goes
Is Combat Overhaul Fork required on the client, server, or both?
It must be installed on the client. Installation on the dedicated server is optional.
This release supports both sides, but the source does not require it on the server.
What else does Combat Overhaul Fork 0.18.4 need?
0.18.4. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install JSON Patches lib, ImGui, Overhaul lib legacy compatibility, Config lib first, but 1 required mod has no matching file for this setup. Do not mix loader builds to force a match.
We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.
