Mako's Wild Waters Server Guide

Welcome to Mako's Wild Waters! The home of BeachSMP! Everything you'll need to know to get up and running can be found here.

Getting Started

First, you will need to install Curseforge, which is where many mod and modpack authors publish their Minecraft content. There's a lot of other games it supports, too, but we only need it for Minecraft.

Go to the Curseforge website and download the installer. Make sure to choose Download Standalone, as this ensures that you are just downloading Curseforge and none of the Overwolf nonsense they try to push.

Then go through the installation process and open Curseforge. Choose Minecraft as the game you want to play, and your Curseforge is ready to download the modpack!

Curseforge website

At the time of writing, the modpack is not available for download on Curseforge yet, and when it is, these instructions will be updated. 

NOTE: AFTER IMPORTING THE MODPACK .ZIP, DO NOT UPDATE ANY OF THE MODS

To install the modpack, you will need to import the modpack .zip file into your Curseforge client. You can download the modpack .zip here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uGa5PyNbcW97ielAzDIxXLvXDfxt2SyI/view?usp=sharing 

Once it is downloaded, find the Import button in Curseforge

Choose to Import Profile .zip and select the .zip file you downloaded. Curseforge will now handle all the downloading and installing of the modpack, and you can go grab a glass of water. Once it's done, the modpack should be available for you to Play from your My Modpacks screen!

NOTE: DO NOT UPDATE ANY MODS! This will be mitigated once the modpack gets approved on Curseforge!
