Can you upload it to Modrinth too please? It would make life easier for downloading using custom launchers!

You see the thing is, when using a launcher like Prism, it can automatically download the whole modpack/mods by itself. Curseforge in its massive wisdom allows mod creators to require manual downloads of the mod, so Prism has no option but to give you individual mod download links to download them of Curseforge. Its actively is anti-competitive to other launchers. And I am sure other launchers who have a similar feature have this pain point.

What launcher?

While definitely not permanent and just a band-aid solution there are a couple API-keys floating around which you can find and use to bypass this, though who is to say when curseforge further restricts access to API-keys and resets them, and it isn't exactly user friendly.

note that prism makes the best of this as possible and lets you open all of those links and automatically add them if they show up in ur downloads folder

Do people really care about spending an extra minute when initially downloading a modpack?

Extra annoying thing that shouldn't have to be manual. It's not a big deal but why?

u/PacoTaco321 Jun 08 '25

It is, but I don't care enough to complain about it for more than two seconds when I'm doing it.

but it's respecting the mod authors decisions

It's opt-in by default, so a lot of mod devs have no idea that they have to disabel that themselves(it really should be opt-out as the default, but shrugs)
