I figured I'd write a basic installation guide for the people who may not already know how to use Modrinth's pack system.

1. Download and install Prism Launcher from here. If you're using Linux, using the Flatpak version will make your life much easier as it comes bundled with multiple Java versions that you may need for specific Minecraft versions (including the one that this pack is on)
2. Download the pack from here by going to the "Featured Versions" section on the left side of the screen and clicking the newest one that's currently available.
3. Open Prism Launcher and click the "Add Instance" button in the top left, then select the "Import" tab from the options on the left side of the pop up window, then click the "Browse" button and select the .mrpack file you downloaded from Modrinth, then click the "Ok" button at the bottom.
4. After you import the pack, you may need to change the Java version the game will launch with to Java 17. If you're on Linux and using the Flatpak, you already have Java 17, but if you're on Windows you will have to download it manually from here. Right click "Create Hexes 1.x.x" and then click the "Edit" button, then select the "Settings" tab from the options on the left side of the pop up window, then check the "Java installation" checkbox, then set the path to your Java 17 installation path, in my case because I'm on Linux and using the Flatpak, it's /app/jdk/17/bin/java.
5. Finally, sign-in to your Minecraft account by clicking "Manage Accounts" in the top right, then clicking "Add Microsoft" and following the on-screen instructions for how to login via your Microsoft account. Once you've signed in with your actual Microsoft account, you're able to add another offline/cracked account with any username you'd like by clicking the "Add Offline" button. If you don't have an actual Minecraft account, I'm sure there is a fork of Prism Launcher somewhere with this requirement removed or you may even be able to manually add a offline account by editing the accounts file, but I'm honestly not sure. If anyone knows, feel free to post a reply.

Wearable collars mod my beloved

THE MODPACK HAS FULL ON TRAINS WITH SIGNALS WHATTTT

I haven't checked out anything new minecraft or mods in years so I am definitely building some trains

LETS FUCKING CUBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I yearn for the mines

is there any mods in there like immersive engineering, or something to build like a nuclear reactor or something?

I WANNA PLAY I WANNA PLAY

Really need to buy a new laptop mine is on its deathbed

I sent you a DM for the whitelist and IP, can't wait to meet you on the infinite cuboidal planes

Let's goo

Yippee!

Wait now I have to remember how to use mods

I only have it on phone

I do not Minecraft but it would be fun to see screenshots of beautiful landscapes, large communist architecture, and trains. Someone please do a Stalinist building, those are so cool.

will villager slavery be banned? (as it should be)

I can't join unfortuantely, my laptop is not good enough to run the mods :( it has crashed several times in singleplayer, being online definitely won't be better

Comment so I have an easy way to periodically check back and see when the lurker applications are open.

Omg digcube

I'm not smart, how do I get this to use fabulously optimized+slidur's?

Could you bump player limit to something higher?

online minecraft is the mind killer

Thank you! I'm late but I'm getting in nooooooow

Any chance we could add ars nouveau? Its my favorite mod to the extent that I play minecraft for the purpose of playing that mod lmao
