Research direction

Start with the linked crash log and trace the reported call into ModelLoadingEventDispatcher.modifyModelBeforeBake. The report does not identify a file, test, or reproducible case; investigate whether the suspected null return or a race is possible, then document a reproducible cause and regression check before considering the issue done.

Description

Playing FTB Evolution. Crash log: https://pastebin.com/Vid89qXr

Seemingly the crash happened on RS's cable block, but I don't think it is the culprit as code ultimately flows into aforementioned method and has little to do with this specific crash at that point.

What puzzles me is that the the crash seems impossible to occur. Probably some race condition stuff I do not know about (can ObjectArrayList just return null???) or reflection voodoo gone wrong, if I have to guess, but I figured I'd report it anyway for the sake of documentation.
