Additional context

Without Embeddium, Axiom seems to work perfectly fine, other than a few missing graphics here and there (such as the context menu when you press left alt by default). I suspect that it has to do with Sodium not properly being "registered" for a mixin since it mentions "axiom.mixins.json:render.MixinLevelRendererWithoutSodium" in the crash log. I haven't tried using Sodium in the mod list yet but I thought Embeddium would work cleaner than it since it's made more as a intended port of it for Forge, but I could be wrong.

I also have to thank you for making this amazing mod and bridging a lot of the gap between mod loaders, especially as someone who just wants to build.

Hi, thanks for reporting the issue. I've fixed context rendering once before but it seems like it broke again, sorry about that.

Guessing by the name of the MixinLevelRendererWithoutSodium class, axiom likely applies different mixins based on whether sodium is present or not. So in theory, aliasing embeddium to be also listed as sodium should do the trick. I'll likely have to add a global mod aliasing system to make this work with modpacks, and so that users don't have to edit mod jars themselves.

Looks like it works fine with embeddium. I had to edit the embeddium jar manually to add provides=["sodium"], and then add a dependency override for axiom to remove a breaks rule, since sodium and embeddium follow diffrent versioning.

For the global alias system, I'd go with a simple JSON file similar to fabric dependency overrides, with aliases listed as arrays for each modid:

{
    "foo": "example",
    "bar": ["lorem", "ipsum"]
}

There we go. You should now be able to get it running smoothly with the next release (or latest dev build), provided that you create an alias for embeddium and remove the breaking dependency constraint from axiom. Here's my config files that I've used, both are located inside the config folder:

connector_global_mod_aliases.json

{
  "version": 1,
  "aliases": {
    "cloth_config": "cloth-config2",
    "embeddium": "sodium"
  }
}

fabric_loader_dependencies.json

{
  "version": 1,
  "overrides": {
    "axiom": {
      "-breaks": {
        "sodium": "NONE"
      }
    }
  }
}
