Raramur: Admire & Create modpack

Description

This modpack is my attempt to create something vanilla-friendly, but exciting to explore and to build creative projects in - a combination of sandbox and RPG, as Minecraft should be. It is my first serious modpack and I am not familiar with all of the mods to a 100% extent, but I play this modpack myself and refine it, one step at a time, as I explore. You can read more about the features of the modpack and get the spirit that I am trying to create on the CurseForge page, but the best way to familiarize yourself is, of course, to play it!

How to build

To make use of certain metadata, like optional mods and external files, you will need to build using packwiz-installer. This way you can exclude the largest (and, by coincidence, cosmetic) mods to reduce the modpack's size drastically.

Important

You will need to extract any .zip files in the emotes folder, because those cannot be read by the mod in compressed format.

Warning

This will install the modpack with the latest changes from this repository. If you want a more stable approach, consider downloading a release and replacing the URL with a local file path.

Client-side

1. Prepare the folder where you want to install the modpack: create an empty Prism Launcher or MultiMC instance with Minecraft of version 1.20.1 and Forge of version 47.2.0.
2. Download the latest release of packwiz-installer-bootstrap and put it in the instance folder (.minecraft).
3. Run java -jar packwiz-installer-bootstrap.jar -s client https://lottuce-yami.github.io/raramur-admire-create/pack.toml.
4. Proceed with the GUI, check the desired optional mods, and manually install any mods that are excluded from the API.

Server-side

1. Prepare the folder where you want to install the modpack: download the Forge server core of version 47.2.0 and install it.
2. Download the latest release of packwiz-installer-bootstrap and put it in the server folder.
3. Run java -jar packwiz-installer-bootstrap.jar -g -s server https://lottuce-yami.github.io/raramur-admire-create/pack.toml.
4. Read the console and manually install any mods that are excluded from the API.

Tip

If you simply want to check the integrity of the repository, download packwiz and run packwiz cf export -o raramur-admire-create.zip to get the modpack in CurseForge format and compare it with the released version.
