Modded Server Setup: Intro

Here is how to setup your PC for a modded Minecraft server! This is a step by step guide to getting yourself prepared to start on the CCM MC server!

Step One: Download CurseForge
The launcher to use when wanting to play on the server is CurseForge! Click this link to download it.



No login is required but it might be beneficial to create a CurseForge account if you don’t already have one. Once it’s downloaded, launch CurseForge!

Step Two: Choose a Game
Upon first opening, you’ll need to choose Minecraft as a game and where you’d like the files to be saved.

Step Three: Install the Modpack
Click "Browse Modpacks" and search for Cottagecore Magick. It should pop up and all you need to do is hit install! It will begin installing and once that's complete then you're all set!

Just in case you cannot find it, click here for the direct link to the mod on CurseForge.

Step Four: Allocating RAM
Before you begin your adventures, make sure to allocate enough RAM so that things run smoothly! By default CurseForge has it set to allocate 4GB of RAM towards Minecraft. However, because we have mods, it’s important to increase this to at least 6GB. Follow the below instructions to do so:




 * Hit the Settings button which looks like a cog wheel located on the bottom left.
 * Choose Minecraft.
 * Scroll down to Java Settings → Allocated Memory

Choose a setting that fits your computer’s RAM:


 * 6GB = 6144MB
 * 8GB = 8192MB
 * 10GB = 10240MB
 * 12GB = 12288MB

There you go!

Note: The game won’t necessarily be using the allocated amount of RAM all the time, this is just upping the limit of RAM it can use if needed to load a mod, the game, etc.

Now you’re ready to load the game and start playing!
