Modpack authors carefully curate mods, worlds, resource packs and other mod elements to create a single unique experience for you to play and enjoy. In many cases modpack authors carry on and maintain their creation to tweak it, submitting new files and updates to their project which users can easily update using the CurseForge App.

This guide was created and kindly provided by popular modpack creator Kehaan.
