Installing Minecraft 1.17.1/1.16."Note" You should have the latest version of Java installed before trying this as you need that to play Minecraft.įirst you download and run your 'regular Minecraft' at least once. So, you need to download Minecraft Forge 1.17.1/1.16.5 before installing any mod. Minecraft Forge works until today as an installer, and almost all mods work perfectly fine even together when installing them with Forge.įinally, this became the only way to install mods now you can’t install them without it. But only installing one mod at a time wasn’t enough, it took away all the point on creating mods. When all the mods fever started, players were having a lot of problems as mods were not compatible when installed together. Copy everything in that folder and paste it into another separate folder. So, before you start installing any mod, the first thing to do is make a security copy.įor doing that you go to %appdata% in your explorer and type “Roaming” then hit “.minecraft”, and you’ll find the folder “save”. If you don’t save properly, you can lose all your data.
