Revision as of 19:00, 26 August 2022
Mods are widely used on Civ servers to optimize gameplay. Many use modpacks created by other players to utilize mods.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 [minecraft folder]\mods\[version number]\
If you run into issues installing mod loaders, you may consider installing the PolyMC Launcher (don't use MultiMC), which provides one-click installs for mod loaders, managing multiple accounts and modpacks, and lots of other Minecraft configurations.
