Useful information for players and admins:

Use your favourite Modpack launcher to install Above and Beyond:

• Some available launchers are: Curse/Overwolf, GDLauncher, MultiMC and ATLauncher
• Make sure to use Java version 8 (1.8.x) for this Modpack
  
  

Grab the respective Server Pack from the files section of the curseforge page and extract the files.

• Run the installer jar and target the folder it is in.
• To start the server, run the forge-1.16.5-36.2.8.jar with Java 8
  The recommended launch command is as follows: (terminal/bash/cmd)

java -Xmx8G -Xms8G -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=2147483646 -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:G1NewSizePercent=0 -XX:G1ReservePercent=20 -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=50 -XX:G1HeapRegionSize=32M -XX:+UseG1GC -jar forge-1.16.5-36.2.8.jar nogui

Use your launcher to install the new pack version as a new separate instance. Transfer the following files/folders from your old instance using a file explorer:

• The saves folder to keep singleplayer worlds
• options.txt to keep your Game Settings & Keybinds
• servers.dat for any stored multiplayer servers
• local folder to keep FTB map data
• schematics folder to keep any Create Schematics you created

Grab the new Server Pack from the files section.

• Stop the server and create a backup of the world.
• Delete only the folders from the server which are included in the new serverpack. (such as kubejs, config, mods, etc.)
• Add the folders from the serverpack.
• Start the server back up.

Note: Version 1.3 uses a newer version of Forge. This is important for your servers' security. To update forge delete forge-[...].jar, minecraft_server.jar & the libraries folder. Then run the installer shipped with 1.3's server pack.
