Yet another modpack opening in vanilla

[Yamiash101]

Howdy, I'm trying to set up a dumb little modpack for me to screw around with using the technic launcher, mostly so I can still use client-side mods on my main client without having to switch the mod folders constantly. Anyways, as the title suggests, it's opening up in vanilla. I understand this is a relatively common issue, and have spent the last 2 or more hours looking at other members' help requests to little avail. As far as I can tell, everything has been done correctly.

The modpack is unceremoniously called Dat Survivor Boi, since Survivor was taken and I didn't feel like making something serious, as this was supposed to be a relatively private thing at first. Any help would be appreciated. I suspect it might have something to do with "coremods", but I haven't really screwed around with mods later than 1.7.10 before, so I am very unfamiliar with it. It's never been an issue in my past, and I'm doubtful it is now, but that's the only thing I can tell could be wrong.

Thank you for reading.

Nah, its because Forge broke the old workflow in 1.13. There's no fix other than using the Twitch/Curse Launcher.

Aw, really? Thanks for the info. Newer Forge seems to be a mess, first Optifine and Forge no longer working, now Forge and Technic.

Hey, atleast we didn't put in crashing code for workarounds (we don't have any tho) like MultiMC did...
