Installing a Modpack using the Twitch launcher (Recommended for beginners)
When it comes to where you download your Modpack from, there's several sources you can choose from such as Curseforge directly, Technic Launcher, Voidswrath, MultiMC and others, we'll be recommending you first install a Modpack using the Twitch Launcher as it has some of the most popular packs available and tends to be quite user friendly for beginners.
We'll need to start by downloading the Twitch Launcher
Once you've signed into Twitch head over to the mods tab at the top and click on Minecraft.
Click 'Browse Modpacks' and from there, you need to search for the Modpack you want to install.
Upon clicking install, you'll see it show up in 'My Modpacks' initially it'll normally say installing and show what mod it is on, wait until it's finished installing and the play button will become available.
Click play and enjoy, if you've not signed into Minecraft before, Mojang will prompt you to log into your account at this stage.
Ensure you have the latest java version if nothing's happening after clicking play, download here.
