Some modded Minecraft server owners may wish to install a custom Fabric modpack, that is unavailable for automatic installation using Shockbyte's automatic modpack installer. If you were unable to find your desired modpack on our automatic modpack installer, please request official support for the modpack by submitting a ticket.

Luckily, it is still a relatively quick and painless process to set up an unsupported modpack on your server.

Step 1:

Install the CurseForge launcher

Step 2:

Click Minecraft in the sidebar, then select Browse to look for your desired modpack

Click the Minecraft tab then click the browse
