You need a mod loader to load any mods to the game, as the vanilla game has no concept of mods and no awareness of them. They are very different in their design principles and focus and implementation details, but on the broad scale they do the same thing: they load mods to the game. All the config files and directories it accesses are relative to what Minecraft considers the current instance (working) directory.įorge and Fabric are both mod loaders. Litematica itself should not care at all about the install location, and isn't even directly aware of it.

I don't really understand what forge and fabric are, i'm probably doing something wrong or have wrong expectations, if anyone can help me with a work around so i can play with litematica and shaders and still have access to other mod variants like vivecraft, and older versions of minecraft for those servers i play on, that would be helpful. install fabric and litematica mod group to new directory manually.create minecraft mod instance with no modloader (because they only have forge).To Reproduce (if not clear from the description already) I did this by running the fabric installer to the new directory, and copying over the mods listed to the mod folder. I thought I would be able to install fabric and litematica to the directory where my minecraft instance is installed via the twitch launcher (formerly known as curse). In order to manage multiple installs of minecraft, I am trying to store this instance of minecraft using the twitch launcher, but litematica does not work when in the twitch launcer (folder structure)? This combination works when installed to the vanilla MC location, but I struggle to use it since I have to switch between multiple versions of minecraft so that I can use shaders or vivecraft as well in other combinations with other mods.Įxpected behavior (if not clear from the description)
