How do I add mods to my Aternos server?

Step 1: Prepare Your Server

Before we dive into the process of adding mods to your Aternos server, ensure that your server is correctly set up and configured. This includes installing the Forge mod loader, as some mods require it to work properly. You can learn more about setting up Forge on your Aternos server by visiting our wiki page on the subject: How to Set Up Forge on Your Aternos Server.

Step 2: Choose the Mods You Want to Add

Next, decide which mods you want to add to your server. You can browse the Minecraft mod community on websites like CurseForge, 9Minecraft, or Minecraft Forum to find the mods you want to install. Make sure the mods are compatible with your server’s version of Minecraft and Forge.

Step 3: Upload Your Mods

Once you’ve chosen the mods you want to add, you need to upload them to your Aternos server. You can do this through the FTP File Access interface in your Aternos control panel. The default location for mods on most servers is the .mods folder. Here, you can upload your downloaded mods.

Step 4: Configure Your Mod Settings

After uploading your mods, you’ll need to configure them on your server. This includes editing configuration files, adding the mods to your server’s startup sequence, and customizing other settings to match your server’s specifications. You can find detailed tutorials on configuring specific mods by searching for the mod name and "configuration tutorial."

Step 5: Restart Your Server

The final step is to restart your server to enable the mods. This ensures that the mods are properly integrated into your server and can function correctly.

Mod Requirements and Compatibility

• Mods may require specific versions of Minecraft and Forge.
• Some mods may be compatible with each other, but others may conflict with one another.
• Ensure you read the mod descriptions carefully to understand the system requirements and potential compatibility issues.
• Always back up your server before installing new mods to prevent data loss or corruption.
