While this might initially seem like a redundant step, you will need to make sure that you also download the Fabric API and add it to your mods folder.

Make sure to download the modding API for the game version 1.20.1, as that's the latest game version The God mod supports as of now. Head to the CurseForge website and search for The God mod.

CurseForge and Bukkit accounts were compromised, loading up mods with millions of downloads with spyware.
