I got the error even before any mod started to load and the problem was that the dependency structure was incomplete as it was missing
this

"dependencies":
[
"base >= 0.16.0"
]

it was not hard for me to find out as I looked at a mod that I know that will load and saw the difference and I don't wish to be seen as condescending but I am just reporting what went wrong and how I figured out a fix by using my common sense to compare what was wrong and the file is the info.json and it was a simple fix that was easy to do
