When Minecraft updates (It recently updated to 1.8) Minecraft mods no longer work. I have tried setting the Minecraft game back to an earlier version but most of the mods do not work anymore.
Do the mods need to be updated to work with the newest system regardless of updates? Or can mods remain the same and the Minecraft client just need to allow mods to be readmitted into the file system?
Best Answer
All mods will need to be updated to work with Minecraft 1.8, and very few have been yet. On the mod's page, it will tell you what version the mod will work with.

How do I get older Minecraft mods to work with newer versions?
Rolling back the clientCan you use mods from different versions of Minecraft?
Yes, (usually) you can do that. Not being able to would be pretty pointless, since no one sets up a whole server with all plugins and mods without ever joining it to test things before it's set up completely. Some mods might require a new map (usually their own one), though.Updating / Run Configurations - Minecraft Modding Tutorial for MC 1.14/1.14.3
