I would like to reopen this question as an exception to our ban on the troubleshooting of modded minecraft questions. The answer to this question does not depend on the specific mod that causes the crash, which alleviates many of the problems of intractability that the category carries. The community also received both the question and the answer positively, which emboldens me. It's true, we have guidelines to the contrary, but we should also allow ourselves to be nuanced by the specifics of the individual case when it makes sense. — badp ♦ 9 mins ago
