How do I install and use a minecraft mod on ubuntu 18.04.1?
On the internet I have found many descriptions on how to do it (e.g. here and here) but either these instructions are out of date or do not work.
The mod to install is Lucky Blocks
which seem to work only for version 1.12. Therefore I already installed a minecraft forge server version 1.12.
But now what? The instruction says to place the mod file (its a zip) into the mod folder. But neither in the client (in ~/.minecraft
) nor in the folder where I downloaded the forge version (~/.minecraftForge12
) does such a folder exist. So create one? Where? Client or server? And then what to do exactly to use this mod?
I also want other users to be able to join this mod minecraft server from the outside. Do they have to install something? What? Where?
Here are the steps I did:
- Installed forge server 12.2 on computer1
- Created
mods
folder inside the forge server 12.2 on computer1 - Copied the mod zip file into the
mods
folder inside the forge server 12.2 on computer1 - Launching normal minecraft client. There is no
mods
to select from.
mods
folder, and for each player you need to have a forge client installed, without the mod on themods
folder. Is that now correct?
