Installation Guide

Welcome to Cobblemon Realms! This guide explains how to install, host, and update your game or server, whether you’re playing solo or managing a large community.

🖥️ Playing in Singleplayer

To enjoy the modpack solo:

  1. Install the CurseForge App.

  2. Search for "Cobblemon Realms" in the Minecraft section.

  3. Click Install, then wait for it to download.

  4. Once installed, press Play to launch the game with all required mods.

💡 Recommended settings

  • Allocate at least 8 GB of RAM (via CurseForge settings).

  • Use Java 21 for best compatibility and performance.

  • Ensure your GPU drivers and Minecraft are up to date.

🔄 Updating Your Game Version (Client)

When a new version of Cobblemon Realms is released, follow these steps to stay up to date.

🧭 On CurseForge

  1. Open the CurseForge App and go to My Modpacks.

  2. Hover over Cobblemon Realms and click the arrow next to "Play".

  3. If an update is available, you’ll see “Update Available”.

  4. Select the latest version and click Continue.

  5. Wait for it to install, then click Play.

🟢 Tip: CurseForge automatically applies configs and dependencies. It’s the recommended launcher.

🌍 On Other Launchers (Prism, Modrinth, MultiMC)

If you use another launcher:

  1. In CurseForge, click the ... next to the modpack → Export Profile.

  2. Import the exported .zip into your preferred launcher.
