Setting Up Modded Minecraft

-

This guide will set you up with the following:

-
    -
  • Java, because that's still a pain in the dick to set up
    • -
  • A new Minecraft game launcher to help organize modpacks
    • -
  • Whatever modpack we're playing

1. Installing Java

1. Installing Java

+

Minecraft depends on Java. It's important that you have the latest 64-bit edition of Java installed.

    -
  1. Download the 64-bit edition of Java 8
    2. -
  2. Run it
    3. -
  3. You're done
    4. +
  4. Go to Java Downloads
    5. +
  5. Download and run the "Windows Offline (64-bit)" option

2. Installing MultiMC

MultiMC is the launcher that we use to organize our modpacks. It has a number of features to make pack installation easier.

  1. Download MultiMC

  2. Extract the zip file somewhere, like your desktop or Documents

3. Installing a Modpack

-

Packs on the server, as of the time of writing this document, will from now on be provided in a format that's much easier to use with MultiMC. If, for whatever reason, you have to install one that isn't, flag down a moderator and have them show you. It's honestly a pretty involved process.

+
+

3. Installing a Modpack

+

All modpacks here are installable through MultiMC.

    +
  1. Download the modpack you want to play
  2. Open MultiMC
  3. Hit the "Add Instance" button in the upper-left
  4. Pick the option on the left called "Import from Zip"
    5. -
  5. Copy the pack download link from the previous page and stick it in the URL
    6. +
  6. Browse for the zip you just downloaded
  7. Click OK

This will set you up with a nice, shiny new instance with all the mods ready to go. Double-click it to launch it.

If MultiMC prompts for it, be sure to set up your Minecraft account.

4. Joining a Server

-

This one's pretty easy, thankfully

4. Joining the Server

+

Now the last thing we need to do is connect you to the server.

    +
  1. Launch the game by double-clicking the modpack icon
  2. Copy the server URL (something like modpack.mc.9iron.club)
    3. -
  3. Open the game, go to Multiplayer, and click "Add Server"
    4. +
  4. In the game, go to "Multiplayer", and click "Add Server"
  5. Stick whatever name you want in the name field and paste the server URL in the "IP Address" field
  6. Double-click it to join
