DIRECT ANSWER

Before installing

Back up any world you intend to use. A new profile makes loader and dependency problems easier to identify. Allocate reasonable memory, but do not copy random JVM flags from unrelated modpacks.

Install sequence

Open the official Verity JE project, choose Install, allow CurseForge to open, and create a new profile when prompted. Confirm 1.20.1 and Forge. If installing manually, use the exact file page and verify all relations for that release before placing files in mods/.

First launch checklist

Confirm Forge lists Verity, create a disposable world, observe the documented box/helper behavior, then configure Groq or Ollama using the maintainer tutorial. If the game fails earlier, do not rotate API keys; diagnose the loader or dependency first.
