Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Always pinned Vanilla resource pack.

Example

You mistakenly moved a Resources Pack before the Vanilla RP.

These buttons are now hidden by VanillaRPKeeper, which only allows you to reorder non-Vanilla resource packs.

Modpacks that redistribute Minecraft game body (i.e. packages that package the entire Minecraft game including Mod files, Config, ShaderPacks, ResourcePacks, Library and launcher into a whole zip file) are not allowed to use this mod.
