At cursed forge you can go check out our in-depth guide on it that we showed at the beginning of this video but nonetheless once this is open here as you can see this is a nice preloader if you will with the fire and the inverse and all that it’s going to

Open up this tutorial we’re going to go ahead and close out of that we don’t need it honestly now it’s going to then land on your choose a game page where you want to choose minecraft of course then you want to go ahead and click on the orange continue button

And it’s going to install minecraft for basically cursed forge to work with it once it’s done that we’re going to go ahead and search for mod packs up here and we just want to type in better minecraft once you type that in you’ll see right here it is a better

Minecraft forge now you can do better minecraft fabric if you want but i personally like the forged one a bit better because it does have 1.17 caves and cliffs as well as 200 versus 150 mods as you can see this is a proper vanilla mod pack with 250

Or 200 plus mods plus it does have the 1.17 caves and cliffs update it does that by kind of hacking it in it’s not actually 1.17 but i’m sure they will update it once it’s time let’s go ahead and click on the orange install button here and after a

Few seconds it will go ahead and download or start downloading the better minecraft modpack and then it’s going to install it it is over 200 mods though so it is going to take some time just being worn just be warned of that it’s going to take some time

And once it does finish installing you’ll be able to play the mod pack i’m going to go ahead quick junk cup until it is finished and then i will see you to play better minecraft also do you want to jump in and like say real quick when i stopped that

Jump cut it was like showing a spinning wheel on my mouse and a lot of people see me jump cut at those moments and they’re like i bet it crashed i was showing this right here this little spinning wheel on my mouse a lot of people see that and think i bet it

Crashed at that moment that was when it crashed right when the jump cut happened because that’s why he jump cut and no that’s not the case i just do jump cuts so we’re not sitting here talking about nothing while it’s installing right it’s going to do that

It’s going to go up and it’s going to do that little spinning wheel as you can see it’s moving through all of the patches as it’s doing that and it just reloaded better or just reloaded the curse forge launcher and now when it’s doing that the reason

It did that is because it is now installing those mods you can see mod 10 11 12 so on and so forth it’s going through and installing those mods there so that’s what it’s doing again we’re just sitting here waiting don’t be freaked out if it does do what

It just did which just take you back to the my mod packs tab if you ever want to get back to there just click on minecraft on the left hand side and it’s going to take you right back here so anyway let’s go ahead let it finish the installing these 212 mods

And i will see you once it’s finished so as you can now see the installer basically progress bar has disappeared on better minecraft and what that means it’s done installing to play it just hover over better minecraft and click on the orange play button here that appears isn’t going to reload and

Basically open up the minecraft launcher where you will need to log in to the minecraft launcher now this is the default normal minecraft launcher that you used to log into so just go ahead and log on in like you normally would and then once you are logged in

It’s still loading i’m getting ahead of myself so it’s going to open up the minecraft launcher like this where you will need to log in either with your microsoft or mojin account and once you are logged in it’s very easy to play better minecraft so let me go ahead and

Log in really fast there we go we are now logged into the minecraft launcher and as you can see here in the bottom left better minecraft is already selected you can click on that and select it here if it’s not selected automatically which it should be

If you do click on this little drop down box here and it’s still not there just close out of the minecraft launcher and click play on better minecraft again you won’t have to log into the launcher this time it’ll just open up and you’ll see better minecraft there where we can

Then go ahead and click the green play button it’s going to say are you sure you want to play modded minecraft and yes we are so click on that understand the wrist button and click play and now better minecraft is going to open up and currently 1.16.5 but what

I’m sure the future will be newer versions great thing about modpacks is they can update without having to re-download everything literally as you can see v19 here it can update automatically via the curse for its launcher and that’s one of the many many things that is truly incredible about

The curse words launcher and how it handles mod packs but as you can see here it is now downloading this for minecraft i will do one more jump cut until this is almost finished and then once it is we will go ahead and show you what

Happens when it starts to open up better minecraft so the download just finished right as i clicked start recording again and uh basically now this is what you will see once the download in the minecraft launcher is finished it will open up the forge mod loader early loading process here

And it’s just gonna go through check that all the mods are there and then start trying to open them now it’s not gonna open them per se it’s not gonna reload as you can see right here and start opening actual minecraft i do notice that our resolution is a bit off

So we’ll have to fix that later but it’s now going through and getting everything started if it does freeze and stuff like that that is perfectly okay and completely normal one thing i will say is if you do see this right up here getting too close and getting to 100 then it

Might mean that you need to add more ram now by default that shouldn’t be the case whoa it just opened up full screen i’m sure that really messed that up okay there we go we’re now full screen it’s very very odd not used to that but we’ll go ahead and run

With it full screen why not so anyway as you can see here it is now opening up minecraft and it’s just gonna take a minute to do that it’s modded minecraft modded minecraft takes forever to load and that’s just that that’s just how modern minecraft works it’s always worked like that

Ftb packs back in the day literally used to take 30 minutes to open it’s not the case anymore it’s a lot more efficient than it used to be but that used to be the case you would have a 200 spawn mod pack and it would take half an hour

To get it up and running luckily it actually looks like better minecraft is actually pretty fast to open in regards to mod packs because here we are we are now in the game now i do see that the single player button is a little messed up there but that’s okay

As you can see we do have multiplayer here if you want to play on a multiplayer apex server you can do that let’s go ahead and click on single player there though and kind of load on in now it’s going to do a new world so we’re

Going to do test world here and then we’re going to go ahead and make it creative because that’s what i like to start my worlds off in i’m just going to allow cheats there going to create a new world so at this point we’re going to sit back relax let

This world create and i will meet you once we are in game so here we are in game and i can already tell you i do apologize for any lag you see that’s just because my computer is uh not that great and does have some trouble or something at times

Running things but wow we have spawned in a village and look at that it is absolutely beautiful honestly like sit in this beautiful huge like tree biome oh we have more villages down this way oh that’s really really cool actually so then we have another biome over here

With these huge tall birch trees wow you know this is actually a mod pack that i really really could see myself like truly playing because it’s just i love vanilla minecraft but this just takes that and elevates it and that is what i like to see

We’ve got as you can see custom what is this the swans just sitting on the lake like wow i’m kind of speechless with how well this is put together and i hope you all enjoyed this modpack as much as it seems like i would enjoy playing it

Um wow it’s what is this whoa did we just hit like a foggy icy biome what just happened that was weird um so we’ve got a swamp ice biome here yeah with fog whoa that’s cool let’s see if the fog actually dissipates when we leave the biome or if there’s something else has

Happened we also do have this book by the way and i don’t know if this is a oh this is a is this a map that kind of like unveils everything what so this is the antique atlas one and and and wow i’m actually impressed by that so it seems like we

Might be about to exit that and yeah sure enough as soon as we exit that biome the fog goes away and it goes back to a completely different sort of wow well done i love that i really do that’s amazing there’s the lag that i was talking about

But anyway this is a really really cool mod pack and something if you love an elm minecraft like i do you will absolutely love what even is this these are ferns i don’t even know anyway nevertheless my name is nick this has been the breakdown enjoy the better minecraft mod pack

I’m out peace
