What is the best way to install mods in Minecraft?

You should know that this game was released in 2011 and little by little it is gaining popularity. It is currently one of the most played in the world because it allows you to do anything in the game. To give you an idea, they have created everything from libraries to bypass censorship in certain countries to a simple 8-bit, 1 Hz processor.

Installing mods depends on the game version

There are currently two versions of this same game. We can say that on the one hand we have the classic, called Java Edition and the version For windows. Depending on the version, in addition to the mods that we want to install, we will have to follow certain steps.

The truth is that it is much faster and simpler in the Java version, which can help us test the mod a little. If we want to install it in the Windows version, then we will have to follow some steps. We will give you all the detailed steps and instructions needed.

Install mods in Java version

We can consider this as the classic version of the game, which is still very popular. In the game there are no differences from the Windows version, although there are other changes. Above all, there are differences when it comes to installing mods, character skins and configuration. We will first explain to you how to install mods in this version of the game:

1. We need to open the File Browsersomething we can do easily by pressing the key Windows + E (the Windows key is the one with the company logo on our keyboard)
2. Once open, click This teamwhich appears in the sidebar
3. We now enter disk C:
4. We go down to Users and we enter this file
5. We will have to look for the folder with the name of our user and we enter inside
   • If you have any questions about the username, click the the Windows from the lower left corner. Now about the cogwheel Setting. In the window that opens we enter Accounts and there the username of our team will appear in large
6. We must now look for the AppData folder and enter it
7. Inside we seek the roaming and we enter
8. The first folder that should appear is .Minecraftthis is what we are looking for and what we need to access
9. We click on the folder resource pack, where are mods stored
10. Just drag the mods into this folder, without doing anything else

Once this process is completed, simply open the game in the Java version. You now need to follow these steps:

1. Access to Possibilities
2. Resource Packs
3. We click on the one or those we want to activate
4. We click on Do and the game will integrate it in an instant and it will work

Yes no AppData is climbing the ladder

You should know that the AppData folder is not normally displayed. This is because some critical files are stored inside and to prevent someone from messing them up, they are hidden. To show it, it’s as simple as following these steps:

1. In the same window of File Browser you have to go to the tab Views
2. Now click Possibilities
3. In the window that opens, click on the tab Worm
4. We must search advanced settings the option of Hide protected system files and delete the selection.
5. Now we give Apply. A notice will appear and you must click on Yes

Now this folder should appear.

Install mods in Minecraft for Windows

This is a slightly different process, as it “requires” you to purchase the mods and other add-ons. There is a fairly easy way to install mods without having to checkout. Here is the process:

1. The first thing is to download the software Minecraft Blacksmithing
2. Now you have to install it, just click on it
3. We give him Install the client and then we press the All right
4. Now we need to run the Forge installer again, but in this case we need to click Install the server
5. You need to open the newly created folder and double-click on the file run
6. The Forge server starts. You will see an error regarding the EULA. It’s as simple as finding the eula.txt file, opening it, and changing the setting. eula=false For eula = true. You save and can now run it without problems.
7. We must go to the AppData folder, for which we must follow these steps:
   1. We now enter disk C:
   2. We go down to Users and we enter this file
   3. We will have to look for the folder with the name of our user and we enter inside
   4. We must now look for the AppData folder and enter it
   5. Inside we seek the roaming and we enter
   6. The first folder that should appear is .Minecraftthis is what we are looking for and what we need to access
   7. We click on the folder resource pack, where are mods stored

Where to download mods?

There are different directories from where we can download different mods for the game. We are going to offer you these:

• Curseforge – This is the best option because all of them are developed precisely for Forge
• Zonacraft: another very good repository with a large number of solutions available
• Minecrafted: it must be said that it is the one that we like the most, because it has better compartmentalization by textures, maps, skins and tools
