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.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.21–1.21.4 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.20.3–1.20.4 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.19–1.20.2 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.17–1.18.2 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.19–1.20.2 · Forge
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.
