Update

Curseforge Launcher:

GD Launcher:

Backup

I recommend that you make a backup before every update. I always check my old world and create a new one before each release, but I cannot guarantee the safety of your world.

The instance folder is the folder where all modpack's files are located. To access it do the following:

  1. Right click on the modpack's icon. Select open folder. (look screenshots)

GD Launcher:

  1. There you will see a list of folders. Copy desired folder where you need it. (for e.g. you want to change launchers and save your world or waypoints.)

This way even if updating to the latest release will break your world you can always rollback modpack version and restore your world from a backup.

Server setup

  1. Download latest Serverpack for modpack:

(found under Additional Files)

https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/life-in-the-village-3/files

  1. Minecraft 1.18.2 server requires JAVA 17. If you don't have it you can download it here:

https://download.oracle.com/java/17/latest/jdk-17_windows-x64_bin.exe

Instal it in default location: "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-17.0.5\bin\java.exe"

  1. Open eula.txt file, read EULA and change "false" to "true" if you accept it.

  2. Configure server.properties if you need.

  3. Set custom JAVA arguments if needed in user_jvm_args.txt

  4. Run run.bat or .sh

If you have an error in console about "Error occurred during initialization of VM" try setting full path to Java in run.bat

Open it with file editor. Change java (in the beginning) to "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-17.0.*\bin\java.exe" (where your java is installed)

  1. Enjoy
