How To Install Modpacks On Your Server?

There are two (2) possible ways for you to install modpacks on your server. Either through the game panel or uploading the modpack manually. In this tutorial we'll be covering both ways.

If a modpack author has not shared a server-pack in their modpack, it is most likely not available to be installed automatically through the "Versions -> Modpacks" tab.

If this is the case, the modpack has to be installed manually.

Installing a modpack will delete all the current data on your server. Please make sure to take a backup if needed. For more information on how to take backup, please read here.

How To Install a Modpack through the Game Panel?

1. Head over to the Game Panel and stop your server.

2. Navigate to the "Version -> Modpacks" tab in the game panel. Find the modpack you'd like to install and click on the "Install" button - in this guide I'll be installing the "Space Astronomy 2" -modpack.

3. Wait for the installation to finish (30 - 60 seconds) and start your server.

How To Install a Modpack Manually?

In this guide I will be installing the "All of Fabric 5" -modpack manually.

1. Navigate to the modpack's page on CurseForge/Modrinth and download it to your computer.

2. Remember to also remember the version of the server as we need to install this on the server as well.

3. Once downloaded and extracted, we can move forward. Each modpack works differently. With this modpack, we need to generate the files first.

4. This generated a bunch of files, however, the "mods" and "config" (sometimes also "defaultconfigs") folders are the ones we need to move to the server. Remember these!

5. Head over to the Game Panel and stop your server.

6. Navigate to the "Files" tab and delete all the files in there.

7. Navigate to the "Version" tab and install the modpack's version that we saved from before. This modpack uses Fabric 1.18.2.

8. Now, once the version is successfully installed we'll upload all the modpack files to the server. Return to the modpack's folder on your computer and zip the "mods", "configs", and "defaultconfigs" folders (for this you need 7-zip or similar installed) together.

9. Upload the zipped folder to the "Files" tab and unarchive it.

10. You can now start the server and delete the zip after you see the "mods", "configs" and "defaultconfigs" folders generated.

🎉 Congratulations, you've successfully installed a modpack manually. If you have any issues or concerns, please contact us through the ticket system.
