Mac & PC Guide in Installing Minecraft VR (+Mods Servers and More) on Quest 2

This guide on installing minecraft on the quest  or quest 2 is for mac and windows but i’ll be using   my mac in this video clips are inserted for parts  that are done differently on windows so everyone   can follow along all needed links are in the  description if you still have pojavlauncher from  

Your previous attempt i want you to uninstall it  then restart your quest before starting over on to   the requirements number one sidequest if you don’t  have sidequest yet you can watch my quick guide in   setting it up you can also install questcraft  with an android phone which i have a guide for  

In another video number two you need to own a  legal copy of minecraft java edition it should   be owned so gamepass doesn’t work number three  you need a microsoft account if you’re still using   your mojang account it’s time to migrate it to  microsoft deadline for migration is in march 10.

Questcraft is already on sidequest but  i think the download is currently broken   so let’s get the files from the questcraft github for mac i recommend using your safari   browser so the zip file gets automatically  unzipped on the right click the latest release then download the apk and zip file  

When the apk finishes downloading click the  install app button in sidequest navigate to your   downloads and open or double click the apk to install click the number to check the progress click the folder icon to open your quest  files this is where you’re going to drag  

And drop the android folder that’s inside  the zip file for mac if you used safari and   you didn’t change the default settings you  should see a folder called android if you   see a zip file called extracttoroot double  click it to unzip for windows right click the  

Zip and choose extract if there is no extract  option download 7zip drag and drop the android   folder into the sidequest window don’t worry when  it says a folder already exists with that name   they will just merge you can disconnect the cable  when it says completed you might have seen from  

Other tutorials where they open the quest internal  storage on mac you need an app called android   files transfer to do that and it’s not just for  the quest but for android devices in general in your apps click all in the drop down box and  scroll down to unknown sources open pojavlauncher  

For your first login one important detail you  shouldn’t miss is clicking the keep me logged   in box it’s a temporary fix to the infinite  loading screen issue then use your microsoft   account to log in for future logins click  select account instead of microsoft login

For the version scroll down to the  bottom and choose the fabric loader   version shown in the video if there is no  fabric loader join the questcraft discord   go to the common issues  channel and download this file while it’s downloading connect your quest to  your computer and open sidequest again click  

The folder button to view your files click android  then data then delete this folder by clicking x when the file from discord finishes downloading  you know what to do if it’s a zip file you   extract do the same thing you did when  you downloaded the zip file from github  

Then drag and drop the folder to sidequest  this replaces the folder you deleted you can disconnect the cable when  it’s completed restart your quest   click settings on the bottom left choose your renderer in video and renderer click the third option click play  

Then play anyway this will download more files  and will launch the game after downloading while it’s loading the screen will turn black  for one to three minutes my normal loading time   doesn’t go beyond one minute but it could be  different for you it could even take up to five  

Minutes but don’t take off your headset while it’s  loading when the screen turns red it’s a good sign   because it means loading is almost complete if  the game crashes after the red screen it could be  

Caused by added mods but this is a fresh install  so that’s not the case here what i can suggest is   allocate more ram go to settings then java tweaks  don’t go lower than the default setting but don’t  

Go too high either if this doesn’t work go to the  support channels in discord when creating a world   the screen could freeze which is something  you shouldn’t worry about because it just   means that it’s loading this could take longer  than the black screen all you can do is wait  

For easier access create a shortcut  to the minecraft folder in sidequest   click the folder button then the plus button  next to the oculus logo then click add new   enter questcraft for the name for the  url and icon url you can copy them from  

The description you can’t right click in  sidequest so use your keyboard to paste   press command v for mac or ctrl v for windows click the green plus sign then save your shortcut  should now appear next to the oculus logo

You can check out the mod compatibility list  pinned in the support channel of the questcraft   discord it also includes links to the download  pages but to make this quick i’m just going to   download performance mods from villagerjj’s  github there are written instructions here and  

As instructed delete the default mods in the  mods folder so open the sidequest file manager   and click the minecraft folder shortcut open the  mods folder and delete each mod by clicking x   back to github scroll up and click  the latest release on the right  

Under assets you’ll see multiple zip files read  the description for this release so you can decide   what to download you can’t use the mods if they’re  in a zip file so you have to extract them first   right click and extract for windows double  click for mac but if downloading with  

Safari in its default settings they should be  automatically extracted to a folder called temp drag and drop all the files inside  the temp folder to sidequest one website you can download resource packs from  is resourcepack.net unlike mods these files need  

To be in a zip format when copied to the resourcepacks folder so for safari users you can switch to   chrome or temporarily change your safari settings  so that it doesn’t auto unzip the zip files   click safari in the menu bar then preferences  at the bottom part of general uncheck open  

Save files after downloading this  disables auto unzipping of zip files   when choosing your resource packs be sure  to download the ones compatible with 1.18   and choose 32×32 for the resolution anything  higher could cause performance issues go back to the minecraft folder by clicking  this or the minecraft folder shortcut

Drag and drop your resource pack zip  file into the resourcepacks folder go back to the minecraft folder in  sidequest then open the saves folder   this is where you’re going to put your saved  worlds open your minecraft installation folder   through the minecraft launcher on your  computer hover on the version then click  

The folder next to play open saves folder  and drag and drop the world to sidequest while waiting for the in-game keyboard to be  added you can use this method to add servers   and play multiplayer in questcraft if you are  in windows you have two options to do this  

But i recommend the second method no  copy-pasting of files on your part   you just need the questcraft  toolbox and your quest plugged in in sidequest you should be in the  minecraft folder this is where you’ll   put the servers file open minecraft on  your computer and add the servers you want

You can close the game when you’re done  open your minecraft installation folder   through the minecraft launcher hover on the  version and click the folder next to play   look for the file called servers this contains all  the servers you have on your minecraft computer  

Installation drag and drop it to sidequest  and you should now be able to do multiplayer the application we’ll be using  here will automatically close   if it can’t find your headset so  be sure it’s connected to your pc   go to rugmj’s github and download  the zip file under how to download

Extract the folder and open questcraft toolbox you can change the selection by using the arrow  keys the current selection is edit servers   this option lets you add servers or  delete existing ones if you have any   since there’s nothing to delete it automatically  chose the add server option when i pressed enter  

You can type the name and ip but  you can also just copy from your   source and right click here to paste  the window will close once it’s done there’s a tutorial pop-up in game that you might  want to get rid of and you can easily do that here  

Select the remove tutorial pop-up and press  enter you’ll know it’s done when the window   closes for a mac you’re going to have to edit  your options text file open the minecraft folder   in sidequest and save options.txt in your  computer this is so you can edit the file

Delete the original one in sidequest  so you can replace it later now open your options text file press command f to open search and enter tutorial   there are two tutorials in the results but  this is what you need change movement to none  

Save the changes and drag and drop it  to the minecraft folder in sidequest for the controls check the pins in the  support channel of the questcraft discord   these could change in the future  so it’s better that you go there
