# This project has been discontinued in favour of other Minecraft mod managers, such as Ferium. If you would like to take over the GitHub project, please let me know.<\/p>\n

https:\/\/github.com\/gorilla-devs\/ferium<\/p>\n

This page will still be available but will no longer be updated.<\/p>\n

## First Launch<\/p>\n

1. Backup your existing mods
\n1. Install this mod
\n1. At the Minecraft home screen, click on the “Mods” button
\n1. Click on the square button at the top right (with the settings icon)
\n1. Add mods either by searching for them, pasting in a URL, or adding them locally to the `mods-local` folder
\n1. Click the “Relaunch Minecraft” button<\/p>\n

## Future Launches<\/p>\n

Start Minecraft normally and watch the mods automatically update! Required dependencies are automatically downloaded as well.<\/p>\n

## Important Notes<\/p>\n

The `mods` folder will be cleared on each run! If you want to add your own jar files, put them in the `mods-local` folder instead.
\nTo edit the config file directly or to host a server modpack, see this guide.<\/p>\n

## Coming Soon<\/p>\n

* Forge support<\/p>\n

## Check out my other mods!<\/p>\n

* Minecraft Transit Railway – Build your own transport network with automated trains, boats, and cable cars!
\n* Modern Elevators and Escalators – Fully functional, realistic, and advanced elevators and escalators in Minecraft!<\/p>\n
