How to Manually Install a Modpack on Your Server 2

This article will show you how to install a modpack on your server.


Overview

To understand better let’s have a look at a modpack, Rougelike Adventures and Dungeons (RAD) for example:

A modpack usually comes with its own forge.jar as you can see in the image above this particular modpack is named “forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2838-universal”.

✔️ We recommend installing files with Filezilla.


️ Forge Installation ️

To have fewer files when you start installing it’s better to perform a clean install to forge. After that, the server should look something like this:

It’s easier with Filezilla because on the left side you have the modpack, on right side, the server files. Then just drag and drop them.

  1. Stop the server and delete everything inside the “jar” folder:
  1. Place inside the jar folder, the modpack files: forge.jar, libraries folder and minecraft_server.jar, In this case, forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2838-universal.jar, minecraft_server.1.12.2.jar and libraries folder.
  1. Rename the forge.jar as you wish, after rename the server type from your Multicraft Panel then click on save, for example:

If you don’t see Forge and Minecraft server jars in the modpack, you’ll need to use the Multicraft Panel to install Forge (select Forge <version> from the list), or to install it manually. See here


️ Mods Installation ️

Mods usually come with their config files, scripts, sand tructures, to install, just drag and drop them on the server:

  • Overwrite the server.properties if needed.
  • Make sure to not drop them over a folder. It will place them in that folder.

Done, now start your server.
