How to install Fabric modpack

Make your server Fabric

Before installing your modpack there are a few things we need to do before hand to set it up.


Step 1: Make sure to head over to your https://alienhost.net/dashboard.php and head to your server that you want to change to Fabric. After clicking on your server you have selected, proceed down to the tab section at the bottom right hand side and change your server to Fabric Minecraft. Then click Change Egg

And now you have a Fabric compatible server. (May need to reinstall from the "Settings" area.


Step 2: After Completing Step 1, we now head over to our panel to config our server to run forge. To check that your server is Fabric, head over to the Startup Icon on the left hand side and see if it looks like this. Check photo Below

Downloading the Modpack

Step 3: Download the modpack you want, from the CurseForge website. I'll be downloading Cobblemon.

Step 4: Download the server pack of the modpack. There are 2 ways.

1st method: Scroll down, and on the right you'll find these (check image below)

2nd method: This one will always work. When you've opened the modpack's webpage, click on "Files", then "Additional files" and to download the modpack, click the 3 dots.

Before uploading your files, unarchive/unzip your modpack.

Select all the files on the left of the screen and drag to the right side. (Don't drag on a folder)

With this modpack we can just double click on the mods folder on both sides. And upload the files, as the other ones in the modpack aren't essential.

Restart your server

Go back to the panel. Restart the server.

Troubleshooting

Upload doesn't work? Make sure your internet is stable and your server has enough space.

Server crashing? Make sure the modpack's version matches the server version. Also make sure you're using the correct Java version for the server.
