What are Modpacks?

Modpacks are collections of mods that work together to create a specific gameplay experience. Popular modpacks include FTB (Feed The Beast), All The Mods, and many others available on platforms like CurseForge and Modrinth.

Important: Modpacks require the correct mod loader (Forge, Fabric, or Quilt) and specific Minecraft version. Make sure your server version matches the modpack requirements.

Method 1: Using the Game Panel (Recommended)

Step 1: Stop Your Server

Always stop your server before installing modpacks to prevent data corruption.

Step 2: Access the Addons Center

Navigate to the Addons Center in your Game Panel and look for the Modpacks section.

Step 5: Start Your Server

Once installation is complete, start your server and check the console for any errors.

Method 2: Manual Installation

Step 1: Download the Modpack

Download the modpack from CurseForge, Modrinth, or the official modpack website. Most modpacks come as a ZIP file containing all necessary mods and configurations.

Step 2: Extract the Modpack

Extract the ZIP file to see the modpack structure. You'll typically find:

  • A "mods" folder with all the mod files
  • Configuration files (server.properties, etc.)
  • Script files for server startup

Step 3: Upload to Your Server

Use the File Manager in your Game Panel to upload the modpack files to your server directory.

Step 4: Configure Server Settings

Update your server settings to match the modpack requirements, including:

  • Correct Minecraft version
  • Proper mod loader (Forge/Fabric)
  • Required JVM arguments
  • Memory allocation

Step 5: Start and Test

Start your server and monitor the console for any errors. The first startup may take longer as it generates new world data.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Server Won't Start

Check that your server version matches the modpack requirements. Verify that all mods are compatible with your Minecraft version.

Missing Dependencies

Some modpacks require additional libraries or mods. Check the modpack documentation for complete dependency lists.

Performance Issues

Modpacks can be resource-intensive. Consider upgrading your server plan if you experience lag or crashes.
