The Shockbyte control panel features an easy-to-use modpack installer with all CurseForge and Modrinth modpacks automatically supported and updated. Modpacks are a great way to experience a whole new Minecraft, bringing a massive variety of content you may have never experienced before.

If you somehow don't see your favourite modpack in our selector, we have a guide on how you can install any modpack here.

Don't know which modpack to use?

You can look at our list of the best modpacks of all time, most of which are available on our Modpack Installer.

# Using the Modpack Installer

In order to see our modpack installer, you must be running a server type such as Fabric, Forge, or NeoForge. After installing one of these server types, you will be able to see our modpack installer on the top navigation bar on your panel.

  1. Access your control panel and Shut Down your server.

Note:

Sometimes our system is unable to automatically detect the Forge/Fabric/NeoForge version needed for the modpack. In this case, you will need to manually configure this. If you are unable to find this, please submit a ticket for assistance.

  1. Give the new server instance a name and description and click Continue. Providing instance information to setup modpack
Warning:

Your server will now restart multiple times while it installs your modpack. Depending on the pack's size, this can take up to 10 minutes. Please do not try manually restarting your server or editing its files in the meanwhile.

That's it! When your server boots up, the modpack will be installed and your server will be ready to go!
