==Modloader Installation== |
==Modloader Installation== |
||
All mods require one of these mod loaders to run. As of May 2022, Fabric and Forge can't be installed together, so you have to decide which loader you want. This will impact which mods you will be able to install. |
|||
<tabber> |
|||
'''Forge''' is the classic modloader, which has most mods that have been around for ages. It currently has installers for all versions available on Civ. |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
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). |
|||
'''Fabric''' is the new modloader that has more of the newer mods that are adapting. It is not compatible with Forge, and has versions from 1.14 to current. Many Fabric mods require the '''Fabric API,''' which is another Fabric mod. |
|||
=== Launcher Install (recommended) === |
|||
'''Quilt''' is a hard fork of Fabric intended to have features that are more comprehensive. It is compatible with all Fabric mods, but not with Forge. It has versions from 1.14 to current. |
|||
Use [https://prismlauncher.org/ Prism Launcher] to install different versions of Minecraft and modpacks concurrently.<ref group="note">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 <syntaxhighlight inline>1.20.4</syntaxhighlight> and also select Fabric (or NeoForge, Quilt) as the installer. [https://prismlauncher.org/wiki/getting-started/create-instance/ For more information, click here.] |
|||
'''Liteloader''' is a predecessor to Fabric intended to have a lighter loading module than Forge. '''It is''' '''compatible with Forge''', and has versions from 1.8 to 1.12. |
|||
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 === |
|||
'''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="note">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="note">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''. |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
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. When creating an instance, make sure to select <syntaxhighlight inline>1.8.9</syntaxhighlight> and also select Forge (or Liteloader) as the installer. [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 === |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
'''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.] |
|||
</tabber> |
|||
Many Fabric mods also require Fabric API to be installed (as a mod), so if you use Fabric, just install the corresponding Fabric API version as well. To install any of these mods, use the installer, and then place any desired mods you want to play with in <code>[minecraft folder]\mods\[version number]\</code> |
|||
If you run into issues installing mod loaders, you may consider installing the [https://prismlauncher.org/ Prism Launcher] ([https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/rie2oe/multimc_is_dropping_all_support_for_aur_packages/ don't use MultiMC] or [https://blog.protonull.uk/2022-10-18-polymc-drama/ PolyMC]), which provides one-click installs for mod loaders, managing multiple accounts and modpacks, and lots of other Minecraft configurations. |
