This page serves as a guide and showing you how to download mods for certain versions. Note that installation may be different depending on Fabric/Forge or depending on version, so please keep in mind what version you are looking for.

Installing your modloader depends on your version.
<tabber>
|-|1.17-1.20=
If not already downloaded, install [https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?version=17 Java version 17]. Make sure to select the install method for your system (usually an <syntaxhighlight inline>.msi</syntaxhighlight> or <syntaxhighlight inline>.dmg</syntaxhighlight>, unless you're on Linux, then you know what you're doing).
|-|1.8-1.16=
If not already downloaded, install [https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?version=8 Java version 8]. Make sure and scroll down in the options and change "Java version" to "Java 8 (LTS)" and select the install method for your system (usually an <syntaxhighlight inline>.msi</syntaxhighlight> or <syntaxhighlight inline>.dmg</syntaxhighlight>).

=== Launcher Install (recommended) ===
Use [https://prismlauncher.org/ Prism Launcher] to install different versions of Minecraft and modpacks concurrently.<ref group="n">If you've been using MultiMC or PolyMC in the past, [https://prismlauncher.org/wiki/getting-started/migrating-multimc/ see this guide to update and migrate your launcher.] Prism is the successor to both that provides more active updates and downloads to CurseForge/Modrinth.</ref> When creating an instance, make sure to select your correct version and use your preferred mod loader as part of the installer (Fabric/NeoForged for 1.20, for example). [https://prismlauncher.org/wiki/getting-started/create-instance/ For more information, click here.]
When downloading mods, you can install them directly from Curseforge within Prism Launcher's client. [https://prismlauncher.org/wiki/getting-started/download-mods/ See here for how to do so.]
=== Manual install ===
Installing manually depends on your version.
<tabber>
|-|1.20=
'''Fabric''' is the highly recommended modloader available for 1.20; most mods built for Civ these days are all built for Fabric these days.<ref group="n">Quilt has been dropped from this guide due to fewer mods having support for Quilt.</ref> [https://fabricmc.net/use/installer/ Download the installer here.]
'''NeoForge''' can also be used for this version, however fewer mods for Civ are available through Forge-like loaders. Note that all Forge mods are compatible with Neoforge.<ref group="n">Forge has been dropped from this guide due to more development occurring on 1.20 on NeoForge.</ref> [https://projects.neoforged.net/neoforged/neoforge Click here to go to the installer page], then ''switch the version to 1.20.4''.
|-|1.8=
'''Forge''' is the primary modloader available for this version. [https://files.minecraftforge.net/net/minecraftforge/forge/index_1.8.9.html Install it here.]
'''Liteloader''' can also optionally be installed for mods that don't require changing game mechanics. [https://www.liteloader.com/download#snapshot_1890 Install it here.]

==Mod List==
Please note:
* Mods are separated by category, sorted alphabetically. Please make sure you are downloading the correct mod for your loader.
* This is not an exhaustive, nor approved list of mods; this is merely a list of mods that are widely used within Civ. '''Please make sure you comply with the server's rules before installing these mods''', you are downloading and using these mods at your own risk.
* If you're using a launcher system, you may be able to directly download these mods from the launcher itself. You can find most of these mods on either Curseforge or Modrinth.

== Migration ==
If you're migrating from an older version of Minecraft (for this guide, 1.18) to a newer version, and you'd like to keep your configs, map data, etc., there are few steps that need to be done:
# Copy your <syntaxhighlight inline>configs</syntaxhighlight> folder to your new version. (This is also where your MacroMod scripts are stored.)
# Porting your map data depends on your map mods.
:* '''JourneyMap''': Copy the <syntaxhighlight inline>journeymap</syntaxhighlight> folder.
:* '''VoxelMap''': Copy the <syntaxhighlight inline>voxelmap</syntaxhighlight> folder.
:* '''Xaero's Map''': Copy the <syntaxhighlight inline>XaeroWaypoints</syntaxhighlight> and <syntaxhighlight inline>XaeroWorldMap</syntaxhighlight> folders.
:* '''Distant Horizons''': Copy the <syntaxhighlight inline>Distant_Horizons_server_data</syntaxhighlight> folder.
:* '''Bobby''': Copy the <syntaxhighlight inline>.bobby</syntaxhighlight> folder.
Once you have it all copied into your new instance, congratulations, you're all set! Make sure you download their respective mods and they should be working once again.
