So making mod packs got a whole lot easier with Prism. In this tutorial, Negative Light will show you how to create mod packs, give them custom icons, and ship them out to your friends all in the Prism Launcher.
Before we start, you’ll have to install Prism. Negative Light has another video on that, so make sure to check it out. But let’s look at how to create what Prism calls an instance.
Creating an Instance in Prism
To create an instance in Prism, you’ll click the Add Instance button. You can go to Mod Renth, FDB, Technic, or CurseForge to search for various mods. If you want to make something custom, you’ll have to go to the custom button. Then, pick your Minecraft version and mod loader. Once you’re done, you can enter a name and click OK.
Adding Mods to the Modpack
Next, you’ll add mods to the modpack by clicking on the Edit button and then the Mods button. You can download mods from Modrent or CurseForge. Once you’ve selected the mods you want, click Review and Confirm, and your mods will be installed.

Adding Shaders and Resource Packs
If you’re trying to make a really special modpack, you can also add shaders and resource packs. Just like adding in shaders from other platforms, you can scroll through or search for the specific ones you want on either Modrent or CurseForge.
Changing the Modpack Icon

Of course, you’re going to want to change the modpack icon. To do that, right-click the modpack, click Change Icon, and select from the available options or add your own icon.
Exporting the Modpack
Once your modpack is ready, you can start exporting it. You can choose to export it for the Prism Launcher, Modrinth, CurseForge, or as a mods list. Prism makes it easy to share your modpack with friends by allowing you to export it to multiple platforms in one go.
Prism vs. Other Tools
Prism is a great tool if you want to make modpacks to share with friends. However, there are other ways to do this. For example, PackWiz is a command-line tool if you’re really wanting to make a version-controlled modpack.
In conclusion, creating a Minecraft modpack in 3 steps with Prism is a simple and efficient process. Prism makes it easy to customize and share modpacks with friends, and it’s a valuable tool for Minecraft enthusiasts.
